Chapter 987 A promise worth a thousand pieces of gold
Back at the Xu Mansion, An Yi did not have a day of leisure. Two consecutive days of military meetings and administrative meetings ended, followed by a high-profile commendation event. Fifteen military and political groups and more than 300 models from all walks of life received awards at the end of the lunar calendar.
With great glory, I went home happily to celebrate the New Year.
The 26th Army and the generals of the garrison stationed in southern Yunnan did not have such good luck. When the British saw that the Anjiajun was not involved in the conflict at the Banhong border, they all thought that the Chinese government was under huge diplomatic pressure from the British.
, swallowing his anger and quietly retreating, he began to
Unscrupulously increasing the scale of cross-border mining of silver slag, and encountering strong resistance from thousands of people gathered by the Kawa tribe, the greedy and domineering British finally lost all patience and gathered more than a thousand people from the British and Burmese.
The army and armed forces marched into the Banhong mining area.
I don’t know why, but they have always been brave and warlike. Although the Kawa people, who are only equipped with spears, bows and arrows and a few fire guns, have always preferred death to retreating, this time they chose to evacuate all of them because they were unable to resist.
There are three small villages with dozens of households around the mining area.
The British were also moved as a whole. After being surprised, the British were overjoyed at first, and then quickly realized that the danger was coming. With the strong national characteristics of the Kawa people, they actually made such a purposeful and organized unified retreat, which was very likely to mean
A bigger storm is coming.
The prudent British colonial army and the greedy British developers had not yet reached the point where they wanted money at the expense of their lives. When they saw something was wrong, they immediately withdrew from the mining area, gathered troops in the border areas, and sent small reconnaissance troops from time to time to cross the border to detect the Anjia Army.
They paid heavy rewards to the desperadoes in the Bamar army and made various provocations and tests, but they did not encounter any resistance for five consecutive days.
At this time, the British were completely confused and could only hope that an air force brigade was flying in from India for reinforcements, hoping that under the aerial reconnaissance and deterrence of the powerful British Empire Air Force, potential dangers around the mining area could be completely eliminated.
What the British didn't know was that the chiefs of the Kawa tribe from several counties in southern Yunnan had gathered in Cangyuan County in a rare gathering, breaking a century-old attitude of distrust towards the Han people.
Army Commander Xia Jian, Guard Commander Dai Zhengliang and other generals gathered together to discuss countermeasures intensively.
The opinion of temporarily withdrawing to avoid aggravating the conflict was made by the Southern Yunnan Anjia Army Headquarters. Although it was strongly opposed by many upright Kawa tribe leaders at the beginning, the Anjia Army solemnly promised - absolutely
Do not allow foreign enemies to infringe upon the life and property safety of our fellow countrymen, brothers and sisters, and be generous
On the premise of generously gifting a batch of guns and ammunition to each tribe for self-protection, the leaders finally let down their guard and believed in An Jiajun's sincerity. They sat down and negotiated patiently. Finally, with the idea of giving it a try, they agreed to follow the rules formulated by An Jiajun.
The countermeasures were implemented and the results after implementation proved that An Jiajun was right.
As a result, the leaders of the Anjia Army and the southern Yunnan leaders were able to sit down calmly, weigh the pros and cons in detail, and strive to come up with a plan that satisfies all parties as soon as possible to fight back against the British invasion. For this reason, the southern Yunnan border
It was surprisingly calm, and there was no armed conflict that both the Nanjing government and the British government were worried about. However, the calmer it became, the stronger the accumulated conflicts and anger became, and the prospects became more worrying.
Compared with the brothers in southern Yunnan, An Yi was not relaxed at all. On New Year's Eve, he also went to the new immigrant villages around Xufu to visit the folks from the north and south of the Yangtze River. It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when he got home. Lao Shoudao, his younger brother Luo Shaodong
, Xia Jian's family, Yin Jinan's father-in-law, mother-in-law and daughter, and dozens of other people gathered together. Five large tables were placed in the large living room, and the tables were full of delicious dishes.
When everyone saw Ding Molan accompanying Nikola Tesla and returning with An Yi, they all showed enthusiastic smiles. The deep family affection and festive joy moved the old foreign man who had never experienced the Chinese Lunar New Year.
For the first time, he didn't say a single ingenious joke. He held Lao Shoudao's hand tightly and happily sat down where the elders should sit.
After a few days of getting along, Ding Molan has become very familiar with Gong Qian. She respects this beautiful, dignified and caring boss very much. She also likes Gong Qian's beautiful pink son even more. She unknowingly calls him
She has become "Sister Qian", exactly the same as An Yi, Ye Qing and others.
The lively and harmonious New Year's dinner ended. The older ones such as Wu's mother, Yin Jinan's parents-in-law and others said goodbye and left one after another. The younger ones were all accompanied by adults, instead going to the newly built Xufu Theater to watch artistic performances from all walks of life in southern Sichuan.
, that is, go to People’s Square to participate in the New Year Garden Fun and Prize-winning activities held by the municipal government.
It was only at this time that An Yi truly relaxed. It was a rare opportunity for him to hug his two lovely wives and sit in the living room on the second floor, around the warm charcoal fire, watching the New Year together and chatting in low voices.
Chu'er is still breastfeeding. From time to time, she needs to pick up her four-month-old son from the stroller and coax her for a while. In addition, preparing for the New Year's activity schedule these days is very energy-consuming.
On An Yi's shoulders, his eyelids were so sleepy that he couldn't bear it any longer, so he apologized in a low voice and went back to catch up on his sleep with the child in his arms.
Feng Jieyun, whose belly was getting bigger and bigger, became very sleepy during this period. Seeing that Chu'er had gone to rest, he couldn't help but yawned. An Yi felt warm in his heart and carefully took care of Feng Jieyun and lay down on the bed. Feng Jieyun straightened up.
, hugged An Yi's neck and kissed her again and again, and then she fell into a sweet dream with a happy smile.
After An Yi took a shower, he looked at the big clock in the room and it was still not yet nine o'clock. After thinking about getting dressed, he went downstairs to explain a few words to Aunt Ma, then went out and walked directly to the small building in Dongyuan.
Gong Qian's little nanny, Shaoyao, had already gone on vacation and went out to play. Ye Qing took a flight back to Hangzhou early this morning to visit his long-lost parents. Only Gong Qian, who lived in seclusion and acted very low-key, and Wu's mother, who took care of the child, were left in the small building.
An Yi went to his son's room, kissed his precious son who was sleeping soundly, took out a red envelope to honor Wu's mother in advance, and quietly climbed up to the second floor under the pleased gaze of Wu's mother.
After bathing, Gong Qian was dressing up. In the mirror, she saw An Yi taking off her coat and walking over. Her heart was beating with excitement, and her beautiful eyes were full of tenderness.
In the eight years since she has known An Yi, this is the first time she has celebrated the holiday with An Yi, and it is a quiet and warm world for the two of them.
An Yi's heartstrings were touched by Gong Qian's rapid breathing and the wonderful orchid breath from afar. He leaned forward and stretched out his hands from behind, gently kneading Gong Qian's round and plump shoulders. After a while,
His hands slid down involuntarily, and when Gong Qian couldn't help but tremble and was about to let out her first moan, An Yi's hot lips were already pressed against Gong Qian's hungry red lips...
The next morning, An Yi, who slept in his room, was awakened by the laughter from the yard.
A sudden Ruixue has decorated the entire yard white. On the big trees, the branches and the bamboo shoots are all crystal snowflakes, the righteous girl Xiao Xinghua, and the son of the Labor Road San Mao.
The righteous son Ma Yuanzheng and the little nanny peony are all playing snow -capped snow cheerfully. The brightly dressed Labor Road and a group of women watching cheerfully.
"Brother Yi, it's a rare rest, why don't you sleep more for a while? I deliberately don't let the children come up to disturb you."
Chuer, who was wearing a festival, is still so gentle and beautiful. I can't see that the mother of two children.
An Yi reached out and grabbed Chu'er's waist that came to his side: "How, the children want a red envelope?"
Chu'er smiled: "Isn't it? Are you waiting for the New Year."
An Yi kissed Chu'er's face apologize: "When I came back to the room last night, it was already more than two o'clock in the morning, did I wake you up?"
"No, I slept, and I got up to see you this morning to see you sleep so fragrant, can't bear to disturb you, and quietly quit again. Sister Yun also said that you can rest more. You are too tired these days.
... Okay, since I got up, go and wash it. Mr. Nicholas just came to the phone and said that you would go to the Beishan Ancient Fort to visit with you. You promised him when drinking last night. Brother Shen said that he had arranged it.
. ""
Chu Er gently pushed Anyi and walked to the wardrobe to pick his clothes for An Yi: "Is it the first day of the New Year, wear military uniforms or a casual clothes?"
An Yi patted his head and strode towards the bath: "Instant clothing. Although it coincides with Ruixue, there may not be many tourists in Beishan today, but they must not be too conspicuous. Otherwise, everyone came up to say hello and delay each other ...
"
Two hours later, Nicholas and Anyi stood on the tall ancient turrets, overlooking the endless Sanjiangkou.
The wind blew the coat of Anyi and Nicholas, but the two seemed to have no sense of cold. They looked at the magnificent Jiang Jing for a long time, and their moods were surging.
Ding Moran, Han Yu, Shen Fengdao and other dozen people were dressed in festive costumes, standing on the edge of the city stacks under the turret, and staring at the beauty of the Xufu and the surging river, which was extremely intoxicated.
"An, Syrian House is beautiful, right?" Nicholas opened.
An Yi sighed slightly: "It is beautiful, and the beauty is intoxicated! But this is not the case a few years ago. There are broken walls everywhere, showing signs of decline everywhere ... Seeing that Syria became more and more beautiful in my hands, there was a one, there was a one, there was a one, there was a one, and there was one.
Unbearable pride ... Mr. Nicholas, your hometown must be beautiful? "
"Yeah, but it's too far away, not only refers to the journey, but the memory also becomes blurred with age." Nicholas evoked the nostalgia and took a deep breath, referring to the highest Christian Christ in Syufu City
The top of the church:
"This church is almost the same as the church in my hometown in my hometown. It is difficult to imagine that when the situation in China was very chaotic four years ago, you agreed to enter this ancient and vitality in the hinterland cities.
Before I came to China, I didn't know the situation here. After a slow understanding of it, I discovered that how much courage and broad mind your decision needed. Although this majestic church has just been completed for more than two years, it is it, but it is it, but it is it, but it is it, but it is it.
This city is developing, the best testimony of prosperity.
"An, I admire you very much, you can have such a courage, build a beautiful city that belongs to your own, and can make it complicated, and he has become a model of peaceful development.
Just courage and strength, more importantly, a genius creativity and forward -looking. To be honest, it was not until the moment I was moved by you, so amazing! "
An Yi stared in surprise Nicholas: "Is the impression I left you before? I admit that when I first see you, I am not so polite. You know at that time.
I don't know where you are sacred, worrying that Molan and Ru Yi will be deceived ... Well, looking at your expression, not like a stingy person, you will not see me before seeing me
Big braid? "
Nicholas laughed quickly, a pair of thick eyebrows shaking up and down: "Yes, yes, at least in the United States, I imagined you like this. When my two beautiful angel Lan and Yi were mentioning you, my
Always longing and worship, even my old guy is jealous, so try to think of you badly. "
"Haha ... Grandma, you are so funny, haha!"
An Yi couldn't help but laughed, Nicholas laughed without any grace, and she needed to support it on the wall with a double palm wearing black leather gloves so that she would not squat down.
Ding Moran, Han Yu and others below looked at all the schools and the school were surprised. An Yi immediately realized that he was disappointed. He quickly ordered everyone to let the firecrackers go.
Need restraint.
Nicholas finished laughing, standing straight, looking at the young men and women with a high glance, three or two gathered together, sigh again: "Young is so good!"
"You are not old at all, Mr. Nicholas, I think it is the most wise period in your life. The great men from ancient times to the present are all at your age." An Yi
Congratulations to the smile.
"Maybe you are right. This time is indeed the most sober time in my life. At least in the past few years, I want to understand a lot of things in my life, but this is also the thing that makes me the most helpless, because my life gradually leaves me and I am away from me.
My colleagues all hope that you can stay. During this time, you also inspected more than a dozen research institutes in Syria. Although you praise it, I can hear some of the disappointment in your praise. How about me?
I really want to make up for the defects and disappointment I do n’t know with your help, and all this can only be expected to be in a great scientific master.
Many people will make a good wish on this day, and I am. "
Nicholas had some surprises. Although he knew that An Yi knew his identity, he would definitely say what he kept himself, but he did not imagine that he would choose to express it in such a special day, express it
Yu, smiled naughty:
"Ann, it is not impossible to stay, but my asking price will be very high. I remember that Mr. Edison, the inventor of the world who was famous all over the world, did not want to pay me for a salary of $ 25.
The bid will be higher than him. Since you are so sincere, then I will give you a chance now, let's listen, how much can you pay for me? "
"You can say it, as long as I can do it, I will never bargain." An Yi joked.
"Let's do this, my annual salary is one million dollars, are you willing?"
Nicholas laughed very brightly. He determined that Anyi would never meet his own conditions. No one in the world would meet this condition that was almost impossible.
Anyi Ganzhi Ruyu: "Tell me, Mr. Nicholas, tell me you are telling the truth from the heart."
"Of course, one million dollars, there is no more real truth than this." Nicholas was very proud.
An Yi smiled gradually disappearing, solemnly stretched out his hand: "So, the transaction!"
Nicholas smiled suddenly. His eyes stared widely, and he stared at An Yi's eyes in surprise. After a long time, he asked seriously: "An, are you really true?"
"Of course, Mr. Nicholas, extend your noble hand! I think there are not many things that can be measured in this world, and you are the most representative of them. Your life
And talent, and your contribution to human society cannot be measured with money! "
An Yi took the first half of the step, her face was full of sincere smiles.
Nicholas was deeply moved, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hands. An Yi grasped tightly, and then made a hearty laugh: "Dear Mr. Nicholas, I believe you will think that this will be what you do in your life.
The most correct decision, and in this ancient, beautiful land, you need to build a monument for you, always let our descendants remember it. "
Nicholas holds Any's hand again: "Dear Ann, I really moved by you! But, please allow me to modify my promise.
I have to go back for two years. I have to go back in two years. I still have a lot of wishes to stay in the United States. Can you understand that? "Can you understand it?"
"I respect your decision."
An Yi was painful, but her face was still a bright smile.
"So, please pay me for a pre -paid $ 500,000 salary?" Nicholas asked slyly.
"No problem, I will check you immediately after I go back. The bank is specified by you. If you need it, you can withdraw the money at the American Citi Bank or the Hedu Guo Bank." An Yi answered.
"Great! Great! So, dear An An, I immediately returned to the United States when I got a check. I want to pay back all the debts I owe ... By the way, it's best to give me twenty again
When I came back, I would bring the research equipment I needed to bring with several assistants. Maybe it takes three or five months, or even half a year, can you promise? "
Yi.
An Yi smiled at his head: "There is an old saying in China: a gentleman's words, the horse is hard to chase! I promise you!"
Nicholas looked at Anyi in shock, and only a long sigh for a long time: "Okay, I was convinced by you! But I want to say, An, you are also a lunatic, we are all lunatic ..."
