In the martial arts school, Zhao Guanhou came to bid farewell to the four teachers, Schmidt and others, and pushed a thick pile of books and notes in front of him.

"Our poor baron has indeed promoted you to the army. Don't he know that this arrangement is actually a crime? It is not a good thing for you or the army to make a person who has not received systematic military training."

Qi Kaifen spread his hands, "I think we will miss you, Guanhou. You should understand that with your current knowledge, you are not qualified for new positions. So, these things are our little gifts, and you must accept them."

These books are textbooks they use in class, and notes are also summary of teaching and military careers, including some specific battle examples, which are very helpful to the generals. Zhao Guanhou thanked him repeatedly, and Schmidt smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite. We are friends. Isn't it okay for friends to help each other? But I still hope you can find a time to return to the classroom and receive systematic military teaching. Believe me, this will definitely be good for you."

After leaving the dormitory of a few foreign teachers, he went to the number shed. In just over a month, the positions of both sides had changed. These people were still studying hard, but they were actually teaching the sentry officers and were still personal soldiers. Once the foundation was opened, they would naturally have to embark on different paths and achieve different results in future development.

Feng Huanzhang saw Zhao Guanhou and hurriedly went up to ask about his injuries. Zhao Guanhou was talking about gossip while taking him aside, and then suddenly said, "Pang Yulou ran away? If he didn't run away, wouldn't you be afraid that he would deal with you?"

"Guanhou...you...what do you mean?" Feng Huanzhang looked confused, as if he didn't know what the other party said.

Zhao Guanhou sneered: "Huanzhang, don't think of hiding me. You were sent by him to watch me. Since making fried eggs, weren't you just looking for opportunities? Later in Jixian County, you said you were patrolling with me, always holding a gun in your hand, probably looking for opportunities. But you must admit that you are smart enough. If you really fired the gun at that time, you would be already a corpse now."

Feng Huanzhang's face turned pale and shook his head desperately. Zhao Guanhou continued, "All right, don't deny it, you can't deceive me. Fortunately, you are smart enough. When you hear that I want to give you the quota for studying abroad, you put the gun at your feet and remind me. Just for this, I will save your life. Also, the opportunity to study abroad is still yours. Your family is poor, you want to make a fortune, and you want to be rich and prosperous, and you will be willing to sell others for this. I can understand all these, and you have made great contributions to the leadership of Bassen, and I also want to give you a chance to see how far you can reach. But I want to remind you, no matter what official you become in the future, don't think of being an enemy of me, because I want to get rid of you, it's just a repetition."

After saying this, Zhao Guanhou patted his shoulder, turned around and said as he walked: "Studying in Fusang may be a rare shortcut for you, but it is a torture for me. After leaving for a few years, the couple will part. That life will be a human being? So when you go to Fusang, you are considered to be a disaster for me, so you don't have to thank me. After returning to China in the future, you will be a friend and you will choose for yourself. As long as you can bear the corresponding consequences, there is nothing wrong with everything else."

Looking at Zhao Guanhou's figure leaving, Feng Huanzhang felt a chill behind him. At some point, he was already sweating and soaking his military uniform.

Yuan Weiting trained the troops according to Zhao Guanhouxian's military parade strategy, and the daily training intensity was extremely high. And what we wanted to show the empress dowager was the elite of the troops. Yuan Weiting's own personal soldiers were naturally also in it, practicing with ordinary teams.

The cavalry whistle commanded by Zhao Guanhou was all tall horses purchased by Taixi, with extraordinary spirits, but the court had a system. The four white horses were "pure horses" and were controlled by the king's chariot and were not allowed by officials. Even during the military parade, they did not dare to use white horses in parallel. Therefore, the BMW horse that Yin Sheng sent to Zhao Guanhou could not be rode. Instead, they changed the red horses with the same color as the other three, and arranged in a row with Huo Qiu and others to practice dressage steps.

This personal army was equipped with imported Thai-style breastplate, wearing Thai-style helmets on its head, and swan feathers were inserted. It was very conspicuous and naturally had a face during the military parade. Therefore, the training task was heavy, and the requirements were even stricter than ordinary troops.

Zhao Guanhou has extremely high riding skills. He just familiarizes with the feeling of riding a horse and then trains and cooperates with the mount to let the horse make movements according to his intentions and make various complex movements. Compared to those who are in a mess for the first time riding a horse, they are not sure how much higher they are. Even Huo Qiu and other old soldiers, when it comes to riding, they may not be higher than their superiors.

At first, he came to be the whistleman of the cavalry whistle, and some people were dissatisfied, but when they saw his horsemanship, everyone was speechless. In the evening, Cao Zhongkun and Li Xiushan came to congratulate Zhao Guanhou and said that Li Xiushan's original team was in short supply. He was promoted from whistleman to squad, and he had more authority. However, in his attitude, he began to curry favor with Cao Zhongkun. It was during the conversation that Zhao Guanhou knew the whole story.

Cao Zhongkun received the silver from Zhao Guanhou and gave Cao Kezhong a generous gift. After all, a favored concubine next to Cao Kezhong said, "The three fools are handsome, and they don't look like they are unsuccessful in their entire lives."

Cao Kezhong believed in the art of fate. After hearing this, he recognized Cao Zhongkun as his clan. The concubine rewarded Feng Baxing and sent it to Yuan Weiting. Cao Kezhong and Yuan Jiasan had changed the post, and his clan was considered Yuan Weiting's own people.

With this letter of Eight Lines, Cao Zhongkun gradually became popular from a coal-like nominal gang leader. In addition, his original lord was promoted, and seeing that the position of this lord leader could not be escaped, it was no wonder that Li Xiushan's attitude towards him became increasingly warm and finally he looked like a sworn brother.

Although the three of them were either popular or officers. As long as there was no major trouble, the ban would have no effect on them. Cao Zhongkun bought wine and meat to congratulate Zhao Guanhou, asked about his injuries, and then took a few silver notes from him.

"Our brothers, if we don't say anything about it, I will not recognize my relatives without your money, let alone the position today. We brothers do not distinguish between you and me, and have money together. If you are new to you and I, there are many places to use money. If others don't say it, Tang Tianxi, who is around the adults, will have to feed him with a large amount of silver. Otherwise, he will give you a pair of shoes casually, which will make you uncomfortable for several days. Don't worry about money, you must spend what you should spend. Your position is very good, and we will also expect you to take care of you in the future."

Li Xiushan also said: "What my brother said is that although we work hard in training and are willing to be loyal to the adults, as long as the people around us say a bad word, our hard work will be in vain. Fourth, you are in this position and you have great help to us, so you must take care of yourself and improve your position as soon as possible. Just open your mouth when using money. If you are not inconvenient, I will give you money here."

After talking about the three men, they naturally talked about the woman's head. Cao Zhongkun lowered his voice, "Guanhou, you are young and fond of sealed water. This is a good thing, but you have to take care of yourself. Not all flowers can be picked. Bassen's daughter is not easy to provoke. Even if you have no wife in your family, it is not easy to marry his daughter. They are Prussian nobles, so how can they look at us Jin people? Besides, if you marry your younger brother and sister, it is even worse. Foreigners don't recognize their concubines. Don't look at what Bassen doesn't say now, if he opens his mouth, it will be difficult to do anything."

Li Xiushan has another view, "In my opinion, if you break it, you will break it. If you can be the son-in-law of Lord Bassen, you have the power of your father-in-law, and you are worried that you can't stand up straight? It's okay if he doesn't want to do it first. If he makes a big move, what else can he do if he doesn't want to do it? No matter which country he is from, he has to nod in such a thing. As for Miss Su... giving a sum of silver to support her outside, it's also considered her good match. The marriage is about being a good match. I don't mean to say that the fourth brother got married that day and was too anxious. Her family is not worthy of you."

Zhao Guanhou did not agree, but just toasted the two of them with a glass of wine. "Two brothers, we are also acquainted with Hanwei. If Zhao is rich, he will change his wife and be rich and a friend, will the two brothers sit here and drink with me? The thing about fate cannot be forced. What should come cannot be left, and what should be left cannot be kept. Even if I don't have a wife now, will Lord Bassenz be willing to marry a daughter? I think it's hard to say very much. But if someone invites me to a birthday party, I can't give me a shame, so why wouldn't I turn my in-laws into enemies?"

Hearing that he said this, the two of them were speechless. Li Xiushan nodded, "Brother Guan Hou, you should take care of yourself. Miss Hannah and that little marquis are very good. If nothing unexpected happens, they will get married sooner or later. If you are so fucked, the little marquis is very dissatisfied with you and probably will cause trouble for you at the birthday party. Although foreigners are not easy to mess with, a young man from the Qingdao Consul can't care about us. Don't care about him, give him some ugly things. If you get angry, I asked a few guys to go to the hotel where he lives and cause some trouble for him."

"No need, I actually didn't want to mess with him, but if he wanted to mess with me, I would play with him. I could never let a boy from Prussia lose the prestige of our Tianjin elders."

When they saw the two of them away, Zhao Guanhou checked the silver notes, which were 300 taels. It seems that Cao Zhongkun is indeed different from the past. With the authority in his hands, life will be easier. His talents are undoubtedly far better than him, so why worry about not having a great future in the future?

Thinking of the two of them's just persuasion, he smiled at the corner of his mouth and said to himself: "Foreigners don't know how to be concubines, it depends on who is doing this. Since Li Man wants to cause trouble, I will help you!"

Bassen was very fond of Hannah, and a birthday party was very grand. The senior team of the foreign company borrowed a private foreign building as a venue and hired a foreign band to play outside the door to play. At the beginning of the door, more than a dozen newly built army guards were pressing on their guns and live ammunition. A little further away, the concession police officers were walking around with batons and drove away strangers.

The Consul General of Prussian in Tianjin, the Lihe Foreign Business Team, many powerful businessmen in the concession, and even the newly established Army President Yuan Weiting and several staff members, including Jin State, and other Jin officials, came to congratulate him personally. As for Pang Jinbiao, his identity was not even qualified to accept the invitation.

Bassens is a clumsy person, and the one who is responsible for reception is the hot Sai Jinhua who plays with him. She wears a dress, greets the guests warmly, and switches back and forth between several languages ​​skillfully. She can chat and laugh with all the guests, not letting anyone feel hesitated, but does not make people have unreasonable thoughts. She is like a social socialite in the upper class, which has attracted the attention of some people.

This kind of party implements a Thai dinner mode, where guests hold their wine glasses and talk to people, and waiters walk around and provide them with food. Although Yuan Weiting is not very used to this mode, he is now the Westerner, who is content with the local customs. He also imitates the Thais and serves a goblet in his hand, but it is really hard to compliment the foreign wine in it.

He looked at the woman and asked Xu Juren beside him, "Bu Wu, this woman is the top scorer wife that Lord Ba fell in love with recently, Sai Jinhua?"

"That's right. Her husband was Hong Wenqing. Unexpectedly, as soon as Brother Hong died, she became Fengchen again. It's really..."

"Forget it, this kind of thing has nothing to do with us. Brother Bu Wu is not Master Du, so why should he be so unfair for Hong Zhuangyuan? This woman is now in Tianjin, and she has made a lot of money. Look, even the Consul General is talking and laughing with her, and I don't think the limelight is inferior to the Marquis."

Yuan Weiting said that the other protagonist of the cocktail party, a very moving Tashi woman. This woman is only in her early twenties and is a few years younger than Jinhua. She is tall, fair-skinned, has a high nose and red lips, and has a water-blue eyes. She is like a magnet, attracting the attention of countless male guests. Including the Consul General of Prussia, the Tianjin Customs Road, and even the senior squad of the foreign companies, she is also circling around her, like a fight between stars, which makes today's protagonist Hannah feel sulky.

Yuan Weiting also knew this woman. In a sense, her status is greater than that of Bassen. This woman is a Belgian banker, the largest shareholder of Huabi Bank, the chairman of Janeson Foreign Company, and the Marquis de Marquis Janeson.

It is said that she was only fourteen years old when she got married, but her husband was already sixty-seven years old. In less than a year, she became a widow, possessed the title of Marquis and inherited a huge inheritance, becoming a wealthy widow famous in the upper class of the country. Many nobles surrounded her, hoping to get both people and wealth, but in the end they all went against their wishes.

The Jin Dynasty built the Luhan Railway and borrowed all the funds from the Birmingham State. The Birmingham State also sent foreign personnel to supervise the financial expenditure. Mrs. Jenson was the person in charge. The Birmingham State had some connection with Prussia, and she also had dealings with Prussia banks, so she was indispensable in this cocktail party today.

Although Hannah is also a beautiful girl, she is a little less excited than Mrs. Jason. Even Lee Man couldn't help but turn around Mrs. Jason to find topics to chat with her. Hannah looked around, but couldn't find the person she wanted to see, and she felt even more awkward.

"Dad, are you sure Lord Yuan gave Zhao Guanhou a vacation?"

"Hannah, this is the fifth time you've asked me this question. I can guarantee this. Don't worry, he will definitely come."

After receiving his father's affirmative answer, Hannah looked outside again, and Sai Jinhua flew to her like a butterfly. "Little birthday star, are you looking for someone?"

"No... nothing." Hannah didn't like this woman, but because of her politeness, she would not have any bad attitude towards her, but she was destined to be indifferent. Sai Jinhua didn't mind her attitude, but instead smiled and said, "Young birthday star, don't know, the person you are waiting for is a relative of me. When he saw me, he wanted to call me sister."
