What Zhao Heng said was basically a common comment on the forums of later generations. Zhao Fuxiang also visited the forums when he had nothing to do, and he was very familiar with this kind of argument.

"You are right, but why didn't you count the troops of the national army?"

Hearing his father mention the Chinese army during World War II, Zhao Heng laughed and said: "Chiang's army was also called an army? It retreated thousands of miles in eight years and lost tens of millions of troops. If the allies were not behind it, he would have been finished!"

"

After hearing this, Zhao Fuxiang shook his head: "What you said is wrong. Don't forget, after the end of World War II, our party had less than one million troops. Why did it grow to five million in four years? It's not acceptable.

The surrendered troops of the national army were these liberation fighters who fought the Korean War! They fought from the Yalu River to the 38th Parallel. You can't deny these deeds, right?"

After hearing what his father said, Zhao Heng argued: "Of course our party's army is an advanced army and has done a good job in ideological work. Let these liberation fighters know why they are fighting, and at the same time give them land, so they can naturally win the war.

!”

"Boy, you said a lot, and this is just one of the reasons! Now listen to me tell you what this cruel world is like. There are three realms of life and work. The first one is like those migrant workers!"

After Zhao Fuxiang finished speaking, he pointed to the busy workers behind him: "They work for your grandpa and make money every day. If your grandpa treats them better, they will praise your grandpa as a kind man. But will they die for your grandpa?"

?Obviously not!”

"The second type is those bad friends that dad has. They eat dad's food, drink dad's food, and say sincere compliments to each other. These people can only be the icing on the cake and provide help when needed. Absolutely not. If you don't provide shit when needed, you are considered a good person.

!”

Zhao Heng was so happy that he didn't laugh out loud when he heard what I said. It turned out that his father also knew that his friends were unreliable.

"The third type is your comrades who are willing to follow you through life and death. These people will protect you on the battlefield and will help you when you encounter difficulties! Our business will become bigger and bigger in the future.

, your grandfather and I will both grow old, and when you are on your own, you will find that you need these three kinds of people!"

"The first type of people are ordinary people. Although they are not of much use, they will provide you with taxes and soldiers, so you need to ensure their safety! The second type of people are of no use either. They may even bother you from time to time.

Legs, but you need these guys to cheer you up when you’re having a good time, so these guys can take advantage!”

After Zhao Fuxiang finished speaking, he hesitated and then said: "The third type is your core. These people are willing to do everything for you and even die for you, so they are the key to keeping your power stable! What you just said

Those liberation fighters, although they have been given land, this small benefit can make them die for you, do you think it is possible?"

Zhao Heng knew what his father meant. He was just trying to win people's hearts. Zhao Heng said: "Dad, I have done all of this! My son eats and sleeps with them. I even accompany them when I stand guard at night.

Isn’t this enough?”

Hearing what his son said, Zhao Fuxiang burst into laughter. After a while, Zhao Fuxiang stopped laughing and said: "Son, you didn't do this out of your heart, but you wanted to take advantage of them!"

After Zhao Fuxiang finished speaking, he pointed to Zhang Guozhu who was still practicing goose-step beside him and said: "Do you know how many people are in his family? Do you know the situation of his parents? And that Yao man under your command, do you know what he likes to eat?

And those two brothers who have money and stuff, do you know what they talk in sleep at night? If you can’t win their hearts, you can’t expect them to defend you at critical moments. Of course, you can also use strict military discipline to restrain them, but then they will

Aren’t they just like horse manure? A group of machines that only know how to fight and kill people?”

Seeing his son who was deep in thought, Zhao Fuxiang patted his son on the shoulder and said: "Boy, do you remember the words of Taizu of later generations? Weapons are an important factor in war, but they are not the decisive factor. The decisive factor is people, not things!

Although they are illiterate, can't tell left and right, and are a bit stupid! But isn't it the same for our party's army in later generations? You must know that before the founding of the People's Republic of China, China's illiteracy rate was 99%, not much better than the Ming Dynasty! Why can our party train an invincible army?

, and you can’t? The problem is you, not these guys, you know?”

After hearing what his father said, Zhao Heng felt like he was enlightened. He finally knew that the cause was himself. He said gratefully: "Dad, I didn't expect you to have such insight!"

In the eyes of Zhao Heng, the former Zhao Fuxiang was just a veteran working in a work unit. He worked from 9 to 5 every day, quitting when encountering difficulties, and being the first to do so when there were benefits! To be honest, Zhao Heng didn't think much of him.

He couldn't compare to his father. But after today's conversation, Zhao Heng found that his father was still quite good.

After receiving his son's praise, Zhao Fuxiang smiled slightly: "Boy, do you remember that there was a TV series in later generations. Zhang Zuolin, the king of Northeast China, said that the world is not about fighting, but about the world! When will you understand this sentence?

It means you are an adult!"

Zhao Heng is only twenty years old this year, and he still doesn’t understand the truth of life that Zhao Fuxiang took forty years to understand. Zhao Heng watched Zhao Fuxiang get up and leave him, and silently muttered: The world is not about fighting, but about the world.

!I thought to myself that I still have a lot to learn!

Zhao Heng's confidence was rekindled by Zhao Fuxiang. He stood up and shouted: "You guys come over here. I'm going to fight you today. If we don't learn to queue up, we won't even eat!"

Zhao Fuxiang was very happy after he talked a lot of nonsense and fooled his son. Although his son respected him in the past, he respected him as a father. Just now, Zhao Fuxiang saw the respect revealed in his son's eyes. This look made Zhao Fuxiang feel good about himself.

In later generations, Zhao Fuxiang was a typical middle-aged greasy uncle. His career was neither good nor bad, his social status was neither good nor bad, and his family status was neither good nor bad. His parents' attitude toward him was neither good nor bad, and his wife and son were even more neither good nor bad toward him.

But it is completely different after traveling to this era. During this time, Zhao Fuxiang's foreign trade work has been going smoothly, and the sugar business has been on track. As long as large-scale industrial production can be achieved, there will be no financial problems in a short time. The most important thing is that Zhao Fuxiang

In this era, I found my dignity as a man.

Outside, Zhao Fuxiang is an excellent shopkeeper, he is kind to his subordinates and friendly to his partners. Even the girls in Cuiyun Tower praise Mr. Zhao as a real person, of course, this does not count Mother Wu.

Zhao Fuxiang has regained the status of the head of the family at home. Because of the good foreign trade work, his father Zhao Zhikuan's face has become very good these days. Even his wife Sun Jing, who has always looked down on him, has been praying for his blessing in the past few days (of course this is

Zhao Fuxiang thinks he is right), and now his son has begun to respect him. Zhao Fuxiang can't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that it is not bad to travel to this era!

Zhao Fuxiang hummed a little tune while walking along the path towards the brick kiln. He came back early today to discuss with his father Zhao Zhikuan that although the white sugar has been successfully purified, whether the laboratory process can be applied to large-scale industrial production still needs to be verified by an expert like Zhao Zhikuan.

one time.

When he arrived at the brick kiln, Zhao Fuxiang found that there were fewer people here. Why did the brick kiln stop production?

Zhao Fuxiang came to the brick kiln. When the worker guarding the brick kiln saw his employer coming, he quickly saluted and said, "I have met my employer!"

Zhao Fuxiang didn't know the worker, so he nodded and asked, "Where's my dad? Why are you the only one left in the brick kiln?"

The worker explained: "My boss, after this place was put into operation, my old boss said that he was building a new brick kiln. Everyone is working there, and only the villain is left here to watch!"

It seems that his father is preparing for large-scale production! Zhao Fuxiang went to the new brick kiln according to the instructions of the workers. Zhao Zhikuan built the new brick kiln on the bank of Haidian River, a full two miles away from Shangbaisha Village. Zhao Fuxiang is wide and fat.

I was sweating all over from walking.

Turning around a mangrove forest, Zhao Fuxiang saw the new brick kiln, where more than thirty people were busy building it. However, Zhao Fuxiang couldn't help but frowned when he saw the location.

It turns out that the location of this new brick kiln is very close to Haikou Suo. Basically, you can see the city wall of Suo City from the Haidian River. The visual distance is less than two miles away. This is not a good location.

When choosing the site for the construction of the old brick kiln, Zhao Fuxiang gave his father the advice that it would be better to be farther away from the city. After all, his Zhao family and Zhang Qianhu's family were not clear about each other. That old guy Zhang Guozheng must be worried about his family.

, a longer distance can slow down the attention of the Zhang family, and when you become more powerful, you will naturally not have to take the Zhang family seriously.

Now that his father has arrived, he has set up the brick kiln under the eyes of the Zhang family. When the brick kiln is completed, it will definitely attract the attention of the Zhang family. Zhao Fuxiang secretly complained in his heart why his father did not discuss it with him. At this time, Shen Fu, the new manager of the brick kiln,

When he saw Zhao Fuxiang, he quickly ran over to say hello.

"Master, you are here!"

Zhao Fuxiang had long forgotten who this guy was and asked, "Who are you? Are you the manager of the construction site?"

Shen Fu smiled bitterly and said: "My boss, you are such a noble person and forgetful about things. I am Shen Fu, the brick kiln master you hired!"

After Shen Fu reminded Zhao Fuxiang, he remembered this apprentice worth two taels of silver. Zhao Fuxiang asked: "It turns out to be Master Shen. Where is my father?"

Shen Fu pointed to the work shed not far away and said, "Master, he is resting in the work shed!"

Zhao Fuxiang nodded and was about to leave, when he heard Shen Fu talking about master, he frowned and asked: "Master? My father is your master?"

Shen Fu was afraid of offending Zhao Fuxiang, so he quickly explained: "Yes, Shen Fu got his old boss's letter to be listed on the door wall. His boss has not been at home these days, so he didn't have time to report to his boss..."

Zhao Fuxiang naturally doesn't care how many apprentices his father accepts. In his eyes, these people from the Ming Dynasty are like NPCs in the game, and they are all tools of his Zhao family. Zhao Fuxiang waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, you don't have to follow my father's decision."

Say, let me ask you who decided to choose this location? My father?"

"Yes, it was decided by Master. This villain is just a steward. How dare he decide such a big thing!"

As expected, it was his father's decision. Zhao Fuxiang sighed and said: "Shen Fu, stop for a moment, it is not appropriate to build a brick kiln here!"

Now that the new brick kiln was half built, Shen Fu stopped when Zhao Fuxiang asked him to, and asked dumbfounded: "My boss, this is my old boss..."

Shen Fu has been very motivated by the equity these days. After all, after the brick kiln is built, it will probably be his property in the future. Now that he hears that Zhao Fuxiang is going to stop work, he still feels a little conflicted.

Zhao Fuxiang didn't wait for Shen Fu to finish speaking, and waved his hand impatiently: "Stop when I tell you to stop, there is so much nonsense!"
