Li Huamei built a "one-family" single-family house in the "Shangguan District". From the building structure to the interior decoration, it was all handled by Qi Feng. The design was exquisite and the construction was exquisite. It took almost two years. Many bricks and tiles inside
The building materials were specially customized. The attached courtyard was designed by Li Xiaolu. After its completion, it attracted the envy of many elders. If the Guangdong and Guangxi strategy had not involved the energy of the elders and the subsequent movement of a large number of elders to the north, "building villas"
"This will probably become another turmoil for the Senate.
Qi Feng didn't know that his villa had become a "model house", but in this new time and space, he finally had a building built according to his own ideas, which finally gave him some comfort.
During the two years of dating and living together with Li Huamei, he took advantage of his girlfriend to take the Hangzhou to many places. The Ruins of St. Paul's in Macau was still under construction, but Qi Feng did not dislike this semi-finished product. He painted on the construction site
I made a sketch of the construction site, exchanged architectural ideas with the priests and Portuguese craftsmen who presided over the construction, saw the blueprints they drew, and even saw with my own eyes how Japanese and Chinese craftsmen built this cathedral.
To be honest, even though it has been almost ten years since I traveled back in time, it still feels very strange to see with my own eyes on the construction site how the remains of a building that stood in another time and space were built brick by brick.
Outside of Macau, the places he visited most were Japan and India. Japan did not leave much of an impression on him. As an ardent believer in "Western Art Religion", Qi Feng had little interest in Japan. However, a large number of Portuguese people in Goa
The architecture left a deep impression on him, especially the recently completed Se Cathedral. This building, which was started in 1562 and took half a century to complete, was the largest Gothic church in Asia at the time.
The style of the church combines the Tuscan Renaissance exterior with the Corinthian interior. Qi Feng was so fascinated that he stayed there for several months. Because he was fascinated by this church
He was so obsessed that he went to church almost every day, so much so that the local bishop thought he was a devout Christian.
Although Li Huamei's family has been serving the Portuguese for a long time, her parents have never converted to Christianity. It is very puzzling to Qi Feng who does not believe in religion at all, but is so obsessed with churches and monastery buildings. Anyway, this is unbelievable to countless Australians
One of the places.
In addition, the relationship between the two is quite harmonious. Probably because they get together less and stay apart more. A break is better than a new marriage. They can always find something new in each other. Li Huamei and Qi Feng are both passionate about their careers and are very passionate about their careers.
A personality that values personal space.
In the days when Li Huamei was not around, Qi Feng's main pastime in his spare time was studying and teaching. He and Trini became good friends. Either he would go to the Italian's house, or the Italians would come to his house.
The two of them would have long conversations or create comments, and sometimes they would stay together all day long.
Qi Feng also accepted a few students - all of them were selected from Trini's training class. When it comes to painting and sculpture skills, he is not as good as the Italian, but when it comes to architecture, he is still better than the Italian.
Italian streets.
Naturally, what he explains to his students is not the high-end Bauhaus school that dominates the construction company, but "pure and beautiful architecture." Of course, he also teaches the space, mechanics and functional knowledge of architecture, but the main point is
Or "How to design beautiful buildings".
When Trini was busy, he took his students in his studio to knock, make models, sculptures and paintings? He was very busy and dirty. But Qi Feng enjoyed it.
.Although he is now unable to build the various magnificent buildings he has drawn countless times, at least his life is very fulfilling.
"People from the Political Security Bureau are looking for me?" Qi Feng put down his pen and said solemnly, "It's strange, I have nothing to do with them."
"Do you want me to refuse?" his secretary asked.
"No need? Let him in." Qi Feng thought to himself, isn't it Li Huamei's business?
Ever since he found out that his "wife" had "historical problems", this matter has always been a worry for him. Although Zhou Botao had promised him at the beginning that as long as Li Huamei did not actually engage in "hostile behavior", the Political Security Bureau would never take action against her.
Over the past few years, his relationship with Li Huamei has deepened, and he has become more and more worried that this tough woman on the sea will cause some "hostile incident" to the little girl in his arms, who is confused for a moment.
Even though Li Huamei was very famous in the Senate, there were quite a few people who started to hate her from love after they fell in love with her. Back then, they could hang an innocent female coach without hesitation, but now they may not be unable to do so.
At that time, I am afraid that he will have no choice but to flee to the end of the world with her. But his ideal of time travel will be annihilated...
This kind of hidden worry has always been hidden deep in his heart. He once thought about whether to let Li Huamei go to Europe in advance and buy some properties as a last resort. After all, the Senate will extend its jurisdiction to the world in his lifetime.
Europe is still difficult.
But after careful consideration, he gave up this idea. A one-way voyage to Europe would take eight or nine months? No matter the Southeast Asia Company, the Navy or the Political Security Bureau, they would not let her disappear for two years. Since the Political Security Bureau had already sent a letter to inform her,
Li Huamei has a "suspicious background", and her sailors and entourage may have had informants already installed. This little trick cannot be hidden from them - it will become some kind of "evidence" when the time comes.
Qi Feng nervously opened the envelope and scanned it hastily, then his brows suddenly became tense. Then his brows relaxed again.
"There are three things a new official should do when he takes office." He complained in a low voice. Then he raised his head and said:
"I have read the letter. Go back and report it to your leader. My answer is: 'Why not?'." As he said that, he took out a metal lighter from the drawer, lit the note, and threw it into the table that served as a wastebasket.
A big wash.
"So Qi Feng expressed his willingness to cooperate?"
"It may have been said that he cooperated, but at least he will not interfere with our actions." Guo Yi said, "I think he will not let go of this opportunity to detoxify Li Huamei."
"You are right. This matter is very difficult. Now is a good opportunity to solve it. Now that everyone has reached a consensus, I approve your plan." Zhao Manxiong nodded, "Who are you going to let execute it?"
"I have arranged for two young people. Although they are inexperienced, they have been trained by our system. I have attached the relevant files to the action plan. One of them is responsible for breaking into the Southeast Asian company, and the Nanyang company is responsible for arranging him to be with Li Huamei.
His public identity is that he is a newly converted naturalized citizen who was transferred to the Nanyang Company. The other one, I am going to let him do peripheral work as an attaché of an indigenous merchant."
"Okay." Zhao Manxiong expressed satisfaction, "Li Huamei will have no problem, mainly Li Siya..."
Guo Yi knew that these words set the tone for the entire action: "I understand."
"There is also cooperation with Nanyang Company. Who are you going to send as deputy minister?"
"I have a suitable candidate, but he is a bit old. I'm afraid he can't bear the bumps of the boat."
"Are you talking about that old man?" Zhao Manxiong said with a smile, "I don't think the problem is too big. Nanyang Company is all about ships and colonies. He, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Security, will not have many opportunities to go to sea. The headquarters of Nanyang Company is currently
It is planned to be located in Sanya, and in the future, it will probably be somewhere like Malacca. Just let him do more paperwork at the headquarters. It is up to you to decide the other candidates - give more opportunities to young people."
The leader should choose an old man, and his subordinates should "give more opportunities to young people." Guo Yi thought to himself that Director Zhao's instructions were unique. However, he had long been accustomed to the leader's smooth and steady words that seemed plain but actually contained a lot of information. He nodded in agreement.
.
Liu Fuqing opened the window and took a deep breath of the air outside.
The winter in Lingao is not as cold and humid as in his hometown of Nanjing. The sun is warm and the sky is clear. The flowers in the flower bed in the courtyard downstairs are in full bloom, the faint fragrance of flowers wafts through the nose, and the birds are chirping.
This is truly a paradise on earth. Liu Fuqing thought. Who would have thought that the Yamen could still look like this!
He turned around, and the air in the office with closed windows seemed a bit filthy. He had been sitting in this small office for almost three years - he had been working here since he came back from Jeju Island.
He looked at his office with a complicated mood. The piles of documents on the table had been cleared away, and handover seals were affixed to the filing cabinets. The desk lamp with a green glass cover was wiped clean. "Come" and "Go" were marked.
The document basket is empty, there are no more various documents.
Hanging on the clothes rack at the door is his uniform, which was just issued this year for winter. It is decorated with his rank: regional commander. This is the end of his service to the Song Dynasty.
It seems like yesterday that he took a boat across the sea from Xuwen to Lingao to join the leader. In the blink of an eye, he has served the Senate for six years and is already sixty-two years old.
A few days ago, he received a notice from the Human Resources Department, asking him to handle the handover and prepare for retirement.
Of course he knew about retirement. The Ming Dynasty also had this rule. When you get older and can no longer work, you have to go home. Officials are called Zhishi, and clerks are not so particular. As soon as the superior officer said something, he was sensible enough to resign.
Fortunately, after so many years of working as a publisher, it is always worthwhile to accumulate a family fortune. It is not difficult to spend your old age peacefully and entertain your grandson.
If it hadn't been for what happened to me, I would have been "retiring" in the countryside of Nanjing about seven or eight years ago.
Unexpectedly, a disaster almost killed him, and his family was ruined! What was left to him was only hatred. It was this hatred in his chest that supported him to be sent to Lingnan in his old age.
