Rebirth of the Flying Era

Du Fei was a little disappointed to hear that Zhu Ting was not at home.

A long absence is better than a new marriage. He was away for three months this time. In this era, unlike later generations, you can make video calls every day.

But it's a good thing that Zhu Ting goes out this time. She won't be there for long, two weeks at most.

Du Fei was thinking as he carried the child into the house with Zhu's mother.

Zhu's mother said from the front: "I'll call his grandpa and ask him to come back in the evening. You two must have something to say."

Du Fei chuckled and said, "Mom, you better understand me. I really have a lot of things to report to my dad on this trip."

Zhu Ma smiled and said nothing.

Although his old man is now on the throne, Du Fei's status is also different from before.

Especially recently, with the situation in South Asia, it is certain that war will break out again, but it will only happen sooner or later.

At this time, let's look at Li Yuanchao's position, and then think about what kind of foresight Du Fei had when he persuaded him to go out.

Even if there is an element of luck, it can explain a lot.

When he got to the house, Du Fei took out the gifts he brought back from Nanyang and played with his children for a while.

Zhu Ma was busy working on a few dishes in the kitchen.

It was almost six o'clock in the evening when Dad Zhu came back from get off work.

With his gray hair combed back, he walked into the room, his face flushed, followed closely by a young man in his early thirties, but he was not the original Secretary Deng.

When Du Fei heard the door knock, he stood up with little Zhengze in his arms and went to greet him: "Dad, you're off work~"

Dad Zhu laughed and responded, looking at Du Fei: "You have been out for a few months, and you are a bit tanned." After saying that, he reached out and took Xiao Zhengze: "Here, let grandpa hold him."

Du Fei chuckled and said, "You know, Nanyang is as hot as a steamer, but it's not as hot as our capital."

Dad Zhu was noncommittal.

Du Fei changed the subject and asked about the young people around Dad Zhu.

The one who can go home with Dad Zhu must be a close friend.

Dad Zhu introduced: "This is Xiao Wang. Xiao Deng has been following me for these years. It's time to go down and exercise."

Du Fei understood that this was also the way to employ people. No matter how good a secretary was, he could not be used for too long.

As the old saying goes, it is difficult to raise a villain and a woman. If you are close, you will not be inferior, and if you are far, you will be resentful.

The same goes for being a secretary. This kind of relationship is between family members and colleagues. Over time, it is easy to become misaligned.

Moreover, it is not good to use a secretary for too long and know too many things.

Most importantly, a secretary is never a goal but a springboard.

Although being a third-rank official in front of the prime minister has the benefits of being a secretary, in the final analysis, he is still a person who serves others.

Chongxin said, who wants to serve others?

To put it bluntly, keeping a secretary by your side for a long time is preventing others from making progress.

If a female student fails to stay, she will become a enemy if she stays here and there.

So Du Fei wasn't too surprised when he saw that there was a new person next to Zhu's father, and he got to know Secretary Wang enthusiastically.

Secretary Wang was very polite and made a lot of preparations in advance when he came to work next to Zhu's father. He knew Du Fei's behavior, so he not only had a correct attitude, but also listened to what he said.

Then Dad Zhu asked Secretary Wang to take a document and leave, then asked Du Fei: "Xiao Fei, what do you think of Xiao Wang?"

Du Fei chuckled and said, "Anyone who can work beside you must have excellent character and ability."

Dad Zhu smiled and did not continue, but instead asked some questions about Du Fei's trip to the south.

Du Fei only said a few words before being interrupted by Zhu's mother: "Okay, let's eat first. If you two have anything to say, we can talk to you in the study after dinner."

Father Zhu stood up and said, "Okay, everyone in the family will listen to Comrade Han." In return, Mother Zhu rolled her eyes.

As soon as it was served on the table, Du Fei couldn't help but be surprised: "Mom, your life has improved today!"

Usually, Zhu's father and mother Zhu's meals are very simple, and they rarely eat big fish or meat.

Today there is not only fish, but also a big bowl of shiny braised pork.

Zhu's mother smiled and said: "I cooked the fish, and the braised pork was delivered by the swimming pool. I made a few extra portions and each house gave me a bowl."

"Yes! Then I need to eat a few more pieces." When Du Fei heard this, he immediately stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the meat, but first gave Zhu Ma a piece in the bowl, and said in vain: "Mom, please have a piece first~"

Zhu's mother smiled happily: "You should also eat more." Then she said to Zhu's father: "You can eat two pieces to lose weight."

After all, Dad Zhu is quite old, and he came through the war years. He has no major injuries on his body, but many minor ones.

In the past two years, my gallbladder has become more problematic and I cannot eat too much greasy food.

Du Fei took a mouthful of rice with braised pork, swallowed it and said, "By the way, I brought two boxes of medicine to Xiangjiang this time. They said they are specially used to treat gallbladder. Dad, you can try it later."

Dad Zhu frowned and said, "Western medicine only treats the symptoms but not the root cause."

Du Fei said: "It's not Western medicine, it's Chinese medicine made by the Orientals."

After saying that, he got up and went out, and soon took out two boxes with Japanese packaging on them.

Dad Zhu took it and looked at it.

He spoke Japanese, took out the instruction manual, read it, and asked, "How much does this box cost?"

Du Fei said: "A box of eight pills costs eighty yuan."

Zhu’s mother couldn’t help but smack her teeth: “That’s it, only eighty yuan?”

Dad Zhu sighed: "These little devils, these are the secret recipes that were stolen from us back then."

Du Fei had seen the gate of the mansion before traveling through time, and knew that when the Japanese occupied the capital, they gathered together the famous Chinese medicine doctors at the time, and forced them to hand over their secret recipes. If they didn't hand over, they would die.

I don’t know how many secret recipes were taken away at that time, but now they have become something to make money for them.

Du Fei advised: "Dad, don't be angry. It's not that you don't report that the time has not come."

Dad Zhu nodded but said nothing.

He knew very well that with the current international situation, it was impossible to liquidate the crimes of the Japanese people.

The best time has long passed.

Although Du Fei proposed compensation through private channels last time, but it could only be verbal.

It is impossible for Japanese people to take money obediently.

Du Fei continued: "Anyway, show this medicine to the comrades at the Health Bureau. If it is edible, you can give it a try."

The medicine itself is indeed used to treat gallbladder. Du Fei also upgraded it in his portable space, hoping to be helpful to Dad Zhu.

However, before you want to eat this kind of thing, you have to let the experts from the Health Bureau see it first.

After eating, Du Fei and Zhu's father entered the study.

After a few months, Dad Zhu’s study room is still the same.

Du Fei took the initiative to make tea.

Dad Zhu took out the chessboard Du Fei got from Chen Fangshi and invited Du Fei to play chess.

The two of them were drinking tea and staring at the chessboard while talking about Du Fei's trip this time.

The first is the situation on the Li Yuan North side, followed by Xiangjiang and Nanyang.

Especially in Nanyang, I heard that Du Fei is planning to build a shipyard in the Kingdom of Sarawak, and all supporting equipment and parts will be purchased from China.

Dad Zhu's eyes lit up and he immediately understood the deeper meaning of this.

He said in a deep voice: "Do you want to use Sarawak as a springboard?"

Du Fei nodded: "Actually, it means the same thing as Xiangjiang, but Xiangjiang is too small and can only do entrepot trade, and cannot effectively digest our industrial manufacturing capabilities."

Dad Zhu nodded, and Xiangjiang is full of businessmen, and there are few real industrialists.

They are more interested in finally making money through trade, or hoarding land and speculating.

Not too patient to invest in real manufacturing.

Du Fei continued: "Dad, the shipyard is just the first step. When I came back and stopped in Xiangjiang this time, I found Jia Daoli and asked him to build a power plant. As long as the power supply is available, we can also build other factories in the future, and all parts and components will be built. They are all purchased domestically, assembled in Nanyang, and put on the Sarawak brand..."

Dad Zhu raised his eyebrows, held a chess piece as white as jade in his hand, raised his head and said: "Hold sheep's heads, sell dog meat, and bring our products into the Western market?"

Du Fei nodded: "That's what I mean. Although our industrial categories are complete, the essence is still prepared by Big Goose for the next war. It serves as a front-line base configuration, and the core is in the military industry."

Du Fei took a breath and continued: "The reason why it has been so difficult for us in the past few years is that most of our factories only have inputs and no outputs when they are not at war. But with the spread of mushroom eggs, everyone It’s all a matter of fear from two ends, and the probability of another war breaking out is getting smaller and smaller. Our family has very little financial resources, and if we don’t think of a way, we will only be dragged to death.”

Dad Zhu nodded. He had been in the economic department for these years and knew these situations better than Du Fei.

It's just that the external environment in the past was too harsh and he was not allowed to take advantage of it.

Even Du Fei reaped the benefits of the general environment.

Without the Vietnam War, the Meguo people would have suffered a setback; without Zhenbao Island, they would have shown strength and determination.

Du Fei had no chance to discuss cooperation with Bush.

As for the Kingdom of Sarawak, it cooperates with Bush in the oil company, with Vincent in the shipyard, and in the power plant with Jiali. Introducing these capitals, except Du Fei, who has no money and wants to borrow chickens to lay eggs, is not an 'open door' The method of 'sharing the benefits'.

Only by getting these people involved can something happen in the future make them turn a blind eye.

Dad Zhu sighed: "It is inevitable that we will reach this point after all."

Du Fei understood what he meant.

Former comrades turned against each other, but former enemies became partners.

Du Fei remained silent. This was a matter of position and he should speak less.

Dad Zhu turned around and asked, "Xiaoli is fine there?"

Du Fei remained calm. The last time he came back, he reported to Zhu's father about the situation of letting Zhu Li pretend to be Winnie: "Second sister is very good. This time I transferred some people from China and cleaned it up over there. With Lin Tiansheng's support, the situation has been completely stabilized."

Dad Zhu nodded.

Du Fei said again: "Dad, you know, my family is very thin, and the only one I'm close to is my third uncle. Do you think there are any suitable young and enterprising people in our family? Send some there, as well as my mother's natal family." , after all, they are better than outsiders. Both Lin Tiansheng and Li Yuanchao transferred many people from their hometowns."

Dad Zhu raised his eyes and stared at him, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "You are so bold, you are not afraid of exposing the 'good' thing between you and the second girl by getting the family members over!"

Du Fei's hand holding the chess piece paused, scratched his head and said, "You...you know everything?"

Dad Zhu said "hum", but did not press any further.

Du Fei didn't panic at all. It was only a matter of time before his relationship with Julie was exposed.

Not to mention anything else, Sarawak is such a large area, why should Du Fei trust it to Julie?

Just because she is Du Fei's second aunt?

This is obviously illogical. Even if there is no evidence and it is just speculation, we all know that their relationship is unusual.

What's more, one is a beautiful divorced young woman, and the other is handsome and energetic.

It's just that Dad Zhu made it clear here that he was definitely not just guessing, and he must have grasped the situation.

Choosing to make a statement at this time also means to beat Du Fei.

This is directly related to Du Fei's proposal to ask the Zhu family to send some children to Nanyang.

Letting the children of the Zhu family go shows that Du Fei is willing to share the rights and interests of the Kingdom of Sarawak with the Zhu family.

Otherwise, even if Zhu Li is there, there will be no Zhu family interests there.

Dad Zhu's reaction was in response to Du Fei's attitude. Although his tone was not good, it was equivalent to bringing the relationship between Du Fei and Zhu Li to the surface.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I..." Du Fei apologized sincerely.

Dad Zhu snorted, lowered his eyes and looked at the chessboard: "You should leave these sweet words to Xiaoting~ Lao Chen said early in the morning that even though you are good in every way, you are not a good match. If it weren't for Xiaoting, …”

Du Fei understood that Dad Zhu was referring to Zhu Ting's destiny and also understood the implication.

If she had no choice and Zhu Ting liked him, she would never let Zhu Ting marry him.

Afterwards, Dad Zhu stopped talking, and Du Fei could only remain silent, reluctantly finishing a game of chess and leaving the study.

He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief as he closed the door.

He had known earlier that he would definitely not be able to hide the matter with Julie.

This is not just a matter of men and women, but the main interests involved are too great.

But I didn’t expect the news about Dad Zhu to come so soon.

Du Fei instantly thought of Chen Fangshi and then denied it.

Chen Fangshi would not do such a thing. Although his relationship with Dad Zhu was good, he knew better than to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

The old fox would not involve himself in such a thing.

Obviously, there is Zhu’s father’s spy in Kuching and he has a certain status.

This is not surprising, it is strange that Dad Zhu was completely kept in the dark.

Du Fei let out a sigh of relief and barely managed to pass the test this time.

Zhu's mother is watching TV and taking care of her children in the living room.

Seeing Du Fei coming out, he said with a smile: "You guys are done talking~"

Du Fei went over and picked up his son: "Mom, let me take the child to bed tonight."

Zhu's mother responded, but she was still a little worried and gave many precautions.

In her eyes, this was Du Fei's first time raising a child alone.

Du Fei carried the child upstairs, and Zhu's mother came to the study.

Seeing Dad Zhu smoking, he frowned and said, "Smoking again, smoking again!"

Father Zhu had no choice but to put out his cigarette in the ashtray and move his shoulders.

Zhu's mother walked over and took a look at the confiscated chessboard: "What did you say just now? I see something is not right about Xiaofei going out?"

Zhu Ma is not an ordinary housewife, she is very good at observing words and emotions.

When they met each other just now, they felt something was wrong with their aura.

Dad Zhu didn't hide anything either: "I made it clear about him and Er Yatou just now."

Zhu's mother was surprised and said: "Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't you agree a few days ago that we'll talk about it later?" It was obvious that she had known this for a long time.

Dad Zhu said: "He wants someone from me, as well as from your mother's side."

Zhu's mother pursed her lips: "This naughty guy knows how to give a sweet date with a stick."

Dad Zhu said: "This is not a sweet date, but a table full of Manchu and Han people." As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Treating a country as a big table not only can be passed on to future generations, but it is also a way out. …”

Zhu's mother felt a chill in her heart. She knew that the recent situation was a bit complicated.

On the surface, everything seems to be calm due to the economic recovery, but in fact, in private, they are making their own plans.
