    Sister Yu Lihong was furious in Lao Wu's office. At the same time, Congressman Chu Bai and the recently resigned teacher Chen Jianghua were sitting on the flood control embankment having an in-depth conversation about life and ideals.

    "People, everyone has their own pursuits. The pursuits of each period are different. Freshly graduated college students want to find a job. It doesn't matter what kind of job they are. As long as the salary is good enough and they can have development prospects, then that's it. Waiting for you  After working for two or three years, it will be different. One is the position and the other is the salary. No matter what, you have to have enough money to pay for your girlfriend, right? After that, the house, the car, the wife, and the children, just wait and live until you are old.  You will be busy until you grow old. Either you are busy for yourself or you are busy for others. Life is like this." The image of Chubai engraved does not have the slightest image of a congressman. His trousers are rolled up to his knees, and his short-sleeved shirt is open and his sweaty chest is exposed.  Squatting on the flood embankment, holding half an unfiltered cigarette in his hand.  After taking a puff, you will always spit out a few puffs of cigarette fart: "I have no objection to your resignation. As soon as you are a romantic poet who engages in the history of European literature, you become the king of children in Hope Primary School. You will be a junior for three years. No.  easy."

    Next to him, Chen Jianghua was lying on the slope of the flood control embankment, with his head in his hands, a sunhat on his face, and only his mouth and nose showing a faint smile.

    ¡°If you resign, just resign. If Sister Yu Lihong gives you trouble, I will tell her then.

    Education is important, but education does not prevent people from pursuing happiness!  Chu Bai took two strong puffs and flicked the cigarette butt into the river. Chu Bai turned around and patted Chen Jianghua on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'll settle this matter for you."  Sister Yu Lihong is a bit hot-tempered, but she is actually a nice and reasonable person.  After resigning, have you decided what to do?  ""about there.  "Chen Jianghua replied in a low voice.

    "Just think about it. If you ask me, at our level, even just waiting to die is still a state. Sometimes I want to just wait to die." Chu Bai said with a smile: "I have already thought about it.  , in the future, I will buy the entire Hawaii, move the population to 3.5 million, and become the king myself. I can marry as many wives as I want, and the king of heaven will not be able to control my three-acre land. I want to  Hawaii has been transformed into a world gambling city. As soon as you look up when you enter the city, you can see Casino Royale. Let's hold a world-class fighting competition every year! Specially invite experts to come and make it a knockout tournament, with a bonus of 10 million. Name  I have already thought about it, the best martial arts tournament in the world.

    Isn¡¯t this name domineering?  Don¡¯t laugh, I¡¯ll definitely do it when the time comes.¡±

    Chu Bai was rambling, while Chen Jianghua beside him began to yawn out of boredom.

    "How much do you think this admission ticket costs? One hundred? Bullshit! If it's less than five hundred, let's not talk about it! One hundred yuan can't even recover the cost. Director Qiu Da's movie has almost been shot, and Zhongnan's cinema  They¡¯re all built. I¡¯m thinking that in ten and a half years, not to mention Australia, even Nanming will have movie theaters all over the streets, right? Then I will make the world¡¯s best martial arts tournament into a movie and show it in every movie theater.  , the tickets are not too much, only 20 yuan each. And new movies are released every month, learn from the old American WWE, how to do it as bloody and as sensational. Twelve PPVs are screened a year, and the number of viewers is small, just  One hundred million. That's two billion. Hey, it's more than what my railway company earns. If you deduct the skin, there will be ten or eight left." He said with a dry mouth and a straight face.  He picked up the coconut next to him and drank it hard.  After drinking, he wiped his mouth contentedly: "How about it, are you tempted? Let me tell you, I really don't tell most people. In this way, our brothers have a good relationship, count you, let's work together. It's not money.  It's secondary, the key is that life is rich and colorful." Seeing that Chen Jianghua had not responded yet, Chu Bai ended his chatter and suddenly asked with a smile: "I haven't said anything yet, what are you going to do after you resign?"

    Chen Jianghua sighed, took off the hat on his face, looked at the blue sky and white clouds above his head and said, "I plan to go to Europe."

    "What a great idea!" Chu Bai rubbed his hands and said, "Those country bumpkins in Europe are making so much money. After ten or eight years, you will be responsible for opening the company to Europe, such as Paris and London.  Every big city has a movie theater that shows movies about the world's best martial arts tournament. Tickets are 30 RMB per ticket! And there is no discount! You have to think about the psychology of European country bumpkins. In their eyes, as long as something is stained with Australian  In two words, it is the trend. If you want to catch up with the trend, you have to spend more money"

    Chen Jianghua shook his head, looked at Chu Bai and said, "You misunderstood. I mean, I plan to go to Europe now."

    Chu Bai stopped, looked at the other party carefully, and then stretched out his hand to touch Chen Jianghua's forehead.

    "Go away, I don't have a fever." Chu Bi smiled faintly: "The absence of a fever doesn't mean that I'm not sick Is the Wenqing disease coming back again?" Chen Jianghua smiled bitterly, acquiescing.

    Chu Bai¡¯s face changed with a sneer: ¡°Have you lost your mind again? The word ¡°Pacific¡± in the Pacific Ocean does not mean ¡°peace¡±, you know.How many ships have the Spaniards sunk in total over the years?  Not to mention those wooden ships, even the Haiquan may not be able to carry it.  Even if you don¡¯t consider marine insurance, you have to consider piracy, right?  Brother, this is the seventeenth century, and pirates are rampant.  The movie Pirates of the Caribbean is about this period. Are you thinking that being a pirate is still romantic?  Pooh!  Don't be fooled by old American movies.  Who the hell would be willing to be a pirate these days as long as they can make ends meet?  Once caught, they are hung directly on the port dock to dry.  If you don't believe it, go to Bazavia and have a look. There are a bunch of mummies hanging on the pier.  They are available in every country.  Besides, it¡¯s still unclear whether you can survive if you encounter pirates.  good!  Storms, waves, pirates, even if you are lucky, you will not encounter them.  But do you know what Europe is like these days?  That guy Andrew just said a few days ago that compared to Manila, Paris is a fucking cesspit.  And you'd better forget about that bullshit princess complex. Princesses these days don't necessarily take a bath once a year.  Otherwise, why are spices so popular in Europe?  Block body odor.  Let's not say that you married a princess, even if the two of you fell in love with each other on a whim Congratulations, your boy has at least an 11.2% chance of contracting syphilis.  That's syphilis. Antibiotics may not be produced in the Year of the Monkey, and our special medicine may not be able to cure it.  To put it mildly, the happiness of the lower body may be gone.  Wang Shuo, that scoundrel, once said that people only live for two babies in this life. You are missing one of them to become an eunuch, how can you still be happy?  "

    "Am I that naive?" Chen Jianghua continued to smile bitterly.  "I said could you please stop being so disgusting?"

    "Aren't you a romantic poet? I used to be a foreman and people like you can't pee in the same pot. I really don't understand. What's the point of moaning in sorrow every day?

    What kind of romanticism do you still talk about romanticism?  It¡¯s just a matter of eating enough to hold up.  Chu Bai said angrily: "In my opinion, you guys have puberty syndrome."  Don't stare, people like you are just not normal, puberty lasts longer than normal.  Well, sometimes it can last until menopause.  Brother, everyone has tragic situations.  When I was in middle school, I also thought about blocking a car from hitting me for a girl and then became paralyzed. The girl cried and shouted that she would not marry me unless I was there.  I also thought about being born in ancient times, turning into a charming young man, and attracting the princess to marry him But fantasy is just a fucking fantasy, shouldn't life have to be down-to-earth?  "

    Chen Jianghua sighed and finally began to argue: "It's not as exaggerated as you said. I have always loved literature, and I can be considered a bit of a talent. At that time, my grades in science were a mess, and I couldn't see Tagore or Hugo. Later, I went to school  When I entered university, I simply chose European literature. I thought that since I was born at the wrong time and could not live in the same era as those great writers, I should follow the footsteps of the great writers and feel the inspiration between the lines. Unexpectedly, a trip  It actually sent me to the seventeenth century." He began to get excited: "Puritan literature, Baroque literature, classical literature As long as I think about discussing literature face to face with Moli¨¨re, who is also a comedian, I get excited.  I have to sleep hard.¡±

    "It's so sexy! If you don't say that I have never interacted with people like you before it's so sexy!" Chu Bai complained.

    "The emphasis is different. Poets are also human beings. Economic life, writing, calligraphy and painting are all part of civilization. It's just that everyone has different focus. People, after having enough food and clothing, they always have something to pursue. For example, you, Congressman Chu,  What I want is to start a film company Different paths lead to the same goal. Speaking of movies and literature, they are really inseparable." Chen Jianghua looked at the river in front of him quietly with hope in his eyes: "Look, with these mountains, rivers, and the sun,  Compared with the moon and stars, a person's life is fleeting. In the blink of an eye, a hundred years will pass, and dust will return to dust, and soil will return to soil. The only thing left to future generations is inheritance. What inheritance? Words! It's okay if there was no opportunity before, but now there is  If I get the chance, I will naturally do it." After a pause: "Besides, according to you, I am in love with poets. I can't carry it on my shoulders or lift it with my hands. I don't know math, physics or management.  What's the point of my staying? I'm just waiting to die and become a worm? I don't want to hang around like this I have to pursue something."

    Chu Bai was silent when he heard the words, then he took out the pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out the last one and put it in his mouth, then crumpled the cigarette box into a ball and threw it away.  After lighting it, he took a deep breath, frowned and said, "Bullshit pursuit is just lust. Neither you nor Ren Nan can see the point."

    To put it mildly, it¡¯s called worshiping foreigners. What¡¯s so good about Europe?  To put it bluntly, as long as we do well, Australia will become the world's economic and cultural center within thirty years.  And that's not going to change for a long time.  Economic prosperity will inevitably bring about cultural prosperity, and there may be many literary works that have been passed down through the ages.  Not only that, the shift of the economic center will also bring about the shift of the cultural center.  By then the whole world will look up to Australia.  To put it bluntly, when the time comes, literature willThe right to judge whether a product is good or bad is in our hands.  If you say you can do it, you can do it, if you don't do it, you can do it; if you say no, you can't do it, and if you do, you can't do it Now you go to Europe to admire a group of great Renaissance writers, and you take huge risks.  "

    "That's different." Chen Jianghua was annoyed: "How can this be the case with literature? What is good is good, and it is destined to be passed down through the ages. What is not good is bad. Even if it is popular for a while, it will be buried in the pile of old papers later."

    Chu Bai waved his hand impatiently, interrupting Chen Jianghua's remarks.  Then there was a long silence, and for a long time, he blew out light blue smoke and asked in a low voice: "So, you have made up your mind?"

    Chen Jianghua nodded.

    "Money is a good thing. I am a layman, so I love money. Only with money can I realize my dream of the Hawaiian Kingdom. But I believe that there are indeed people who don't love money. I have never encountered it before, and I didn't even think about it until 1642.  Here we are. And when we met, there were two of them You, Cheng Yang, and Ren Nanen. It seems that you and Ren Nan are in love. One is fond of European literature, and the other is an artist. Are you two going to Europe together? Isn't this right?  Get married on a trip, right? Don't be so embarrassed, isn't that what I said? Everyone can see it, you two are the only one who can get along with so many people."

    As a joke, Chu Bai was silent for a long time.  It wasn't until the cigarette butt burned my hands that I frowned and said, "Since you want to leave, I won't stop you. As I said before, safety comes first. I'll make a plan with everyone later"

    "Stop making calculations. It's better to take action when you have finished adding up. You may not know what year it is." Chen Jianghua said: "I have discussed it with Ren Nan and we will go on Andrew's boat. Madrid, Paris, Vienna, London, maybe  I'll go to Turkey. Don't become an ambassador. You know, I don't like politics, and I hate conspiracy. I think it's about cultural exchanges." "That's it." Chu Bai nodded: "Don't do it either.  It's too frustrating, at least get a special envoy.

    It¡¯s easy to talk wherever you go.  "Don't worry, before we leave, we will each make a Duke of Ming Dynasty."  With this name, it can definitely suppress those small European countries.  "Chen Jianghua said with a smile.

    Chu Bai smiled, patted the other party's shoulder, stood up with his knees up, and left without looking back.

    On December 19, Chen Jianghua and Ren Nan were rated as the most passionate guys by time travelers. They took the Flying Henanese and rushed to Manila day and night.  There they would board a merchant ship and sail to Europe with Andrew and the Spanish envoy Antlip.  (Note 1)

    Manila.

    With a bang, the white ball flew high into the sky, crossed a stream and landed on the green lawn. It bounced repeatedly and finally stopped about five or six meters away from the flagpole.

    Sparse applause rang out, and everyone congratulated Han Xu, the Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, who was still swinging.

    "1 birdie, good skills, a bit unexpected." Luzon Emperor Chang Shide said with a smile.

    Han Xu handed the club to the indigenous caddy, curled his lips and said with a smile: "The key is to have a foundation." "Well? Have you played before? I remember that you are not a rich kid, so you really pay the club membership fee.  I'm willing to give it up.

    "Chang Shide was a little surprised.

    "Hi. Ten yuan an hour, practice in the park." "Haha" Chang Shide couldn't stop laughing.

    Golf is an aristocratic sport because you can¡¯t play it without money.  In the past, Han Xu had no money, so in order to have fun, he could only go to the park, spend dozens of dollars and sweat like rain in a corner surrounded by gauze.  At that time, Han Xu was thinking that based on his career prospects, he would not be able to play golf seriously before retiring.  Chang Shide next to him was not much better. He was a customer service manager before, and he was occasionally invited by customers to play a few games.

    It has only been two or three years, but now the two of them are playing golf side by side, enjoying the admiration and admiration of the people around them.

    With awe-inspiring eyes, there is an astronomical amount of wealth in the bank account. Thinking about this sudden change, it is really amazing.  In this world, nothing is permanent.

    The two of them were walking and talking.

    "I'm planning to go to the Japanese copper mine in the next two days. The partners will watch over it and nothing will go wrong. The Spanish envoy Antlip has also been sent away. It's time to do some serious business." Han  Xu said softly.

    "You should have done this a long time ago." Chang Shide nodded in agreement: "You said that as the deputy minister of foreign affairs, the main responsibility given to you by Congress is to control Japan's political situation. But it turned out that it was good for you, Mao was in Manila to concentrate on  What kind of copper mine cartel? There have been complaints about this in China for a long time."

    "So what if you complain? Xiao followed Cao Gui, and we have been implementing the plan made by Minister Shao.

    Whether I go or not is all planned in Japan.??¡­among.  What are those guys in the country so worried about?  "

    Chang Shide smiled but did not answer.  This is entirely a matter of attitude.  The so-called seeking political power in one's position requires not only doing it, but also doing it well: not only doing it well, but also letting people see that you have done it well.

    First of all, this is a matter of attitude. When you become the evacuation manager, you feel that you have done a good job.  Even if it achieves results, the picky guys in China will not be satisfied.  Even subconsciously, I think you are a deadbeat and derelict in your duties.  Being an official is a skill, and Chang Shide has just mastered it recently.  And Han Xu next to him still thinks in the same way as ordinary people.  Just let him go through the crowd, otherwise he would have been impeached long ago.

    "Has Lou Sheng changed in Japan?" Chang Shide asked instead.

    Xu nodded solemnly: "The new army of the shogunate has been established, including the standing army of more than 5,000 artillery troops. Last week, Iemitsu held an exercise and invited a group of famous people to watch it. After the old boy knocked the mountain with his hands, he shook the tiger.  , I guess I have to find a soft persimmon first."

    "It's a good thing, it's like advertising Australia's arms."

    Han Xu laughed loudly: "The advertisement has been opened, and the goods have to be distributed next. But here and there, when we got on the pole and delivered the goods to the door, the big names hesitated and didn't say how much they would buy. Now I see  The new army of the shogunate is afraid, and there is no way to get that kind of treatment." Han Xuyin said with a smile: "If you want to buy Australian arms, it is not just a matter of money."!  .
