The journey starts from the Titanic

"No hard work, Mr. Lin. This is President Xu Weixu, this President Xu Xiqi Xu, this is Mr Xu Xiji. There are also Ms. Wang Zhenhan and her son Xu Xuewen."

Wu Ming introduced enthusiastically, and then introduced Lin Yimin: "This is Mr. Lin Yimin, my boss, young and promising."

"Brother Wu said and laughed." Lin Yimin smiled and enthusiastically invited the Xu family brothers in.

Lin Yimin's enthusiastic attitude made the Xu family brothers very useful, and they walked into this magnificent house a little nervously.

Looking at the shiny place covered with precious marbles, the spacious ballroom, all kinds of trendy furniture, and the famous masterpieces on the walls, Xu Wei sighed.

"This house is really amazing! I don't think there are many in Shanghai." Xu Xiqi first admired.He is a businessman, so he is more sleek and open.

Lin Yimin nodded and said with a smile: "The house is a bit big, and it feels a bit empty. It was given by someone else, so I couldn't refuse, so I had to live in. The boat to Nanhua only took a few days. Several Mr. Xu would live here with peace of mind. All the friendship of the landlord."

Xu Wei looked at Wu Ming, saw that he had no objection, smiled and nodded, "Then bother."

"I believe Brother Wu has already told you about the situation in Nanhua, and I won't repeat it. In short, we have a sincere heart for the Xu family and the comrades of the Liberation Council. We hope that the two sides will work together to create a great cause. If you need help, just open your mouth and you can definitely help." Lin Yimin said sincerely.

He has attracted a lot of investment these days. The capital is needed by Nanhua, but at the same time he also needs talents like Xu Wei, so Lin Yimin is very happy with the arrival of the Xu family.

"Thank you Mr. Lin for your kindness. Going to Nanyang does give us a new opportunity. It is my ambition to open a school and cultivate Chinese talents." Xu Wei smiled.

What he said was that the Revival Society did not go to South China to fight for power, but only wanted to run education and cultivate talents.

Lin Yimin nodded and saw the sincerity in the eyes of the other party. He turned to Xu Xiqi: "Nanhua is a hot spot for investment. I believe Mr. Xu will not be disappointed after the inspection. I hope Mr. Xu will have the opportunity to promote Nanhua more and let more businessmen from Jiangsu and Zhejiang come to Nanhua. investment."

"Of course. Shaoxing Chamber of Commerce has maintained a good cooperative relationship with Meihua Company in recent years, right?" Xu Xiqi smiled.

"Yes. Boss Xu helped me a lot. I believe we have more opportunities for cooperation in Nanhua." Wu Ming smiled.

Wu Lili secretly looked at Xu Xuewen who was sitting next to her. The elders talked, but the two of them couldn't speak. They were not interested in their topics and felt a little depressed.

"Uncle Lin, is Sister Lin here? I'm going to see her." Wu Lili interrupted.

"Sister Lin?" Lin Yimin was stunned for a moment, only to remember that Wu Lili, who had given her daughter Lin Shuyi a nickname, Sister Lin, said with a smile, "Upstairs."

"Xuewen, let's go up to see Sister Lin!" After speaking, he grabbed Xu Xuewen's hand and walked upstairs.

"This crazy girl!" Wu Ming smiled and cursed at the pair of young men who had disappeared on the stairs, and everyone laughed and said nothing.

Chapter 142

"I heard that Mr. Zhang is a weird person?" Lin Yimin asked Xu Wei while sitting in the car.They are going to visit Zhang Taiyan, who lives in Shanghai.Zhang Taiyan was another leader of the Liberation Association, but after Tao Chengzhang died, he had no mind to restore the affiliation. He devoted himself to studying knowledge and was a rare celebrity.

"Weirdo? It should be a weirdo! His temper is a bit anxious, and no one will sell his face when he breaks out."

Xu Wei smiled.

In terms of scholarship, Zhang Taiyan is top-notch, especially in the study of ancient culture.At the same time, he is proficient in medicine, and author of "Cholera" and "Zhang Taiyan Medical Theory".

"Literature, medicine, sociology, revolutionist, Mr. Zhang is really amazing." Lin Yimin praised. He knew that he was going to visit a master of Chinese studies, a man of the Republic of China, so he did a lot of homework in advance.

"Mr. Zhang's learning is much better than mine. The students he teaches are all famous professors and scholars, such as Huang Kan, Zhu Xizu, Qian Xuantong, Zhou Shuren (Lu Xun), Shen Jianshi, etc."

Xu Wei said with a look of admiration, "It would be great if Mr. Zhang could be allowed to go south. However, he has a strong personality and a bit of poison in his mouth. If there will be anything unpleasant, Mr. Lin don't take it seriously."

"Haha. Don't worry! People who can get Mr. Zhang's scolding are all big shots. Maybe I will be famous if I get scolded by him."

Lin Yimin smiled.

He really admired Zhang Taiyan's daring to speak out. Zhang Taiyan was different from other politicians or revolutionaries.For example, Zhang Taiyan can curse people, and may be mercilessly cursing, but he behaves upright and doesn't make secret tricks, so this kind of person is not dangerous.

"Haha." Xu Wei smiled slightly. He was also a little worried that a young and energetic person like Lin Yimin would not be able to bear the accusations of others.

Zhang Taiyan had just returned from lectures in other places, and was a little surprised at Xu Wei's visit. When they met, he enthusiastically took Xu Wei's hand and cared about the situation of Xu's family.He has rarely contacted the comrades of the Recovery Association.

"This is?" Zhang Taiyan asked while looking at Lin Yimin.

"Haha. His name is Lin Yimin, the person in charge of Meihua Company in Shanghai." Xu Wei introduced.

"Meihua Company? Oh! Are you from Nanhua?" Zhang Taiyan immediately responded, his critical eyes fell on Lin Yimin's delicate face. Seeing that the other's eyes were calm and restrained, without the arrogance of the young master, he couldn't help but secretly nod.

"I have seen Mr. Zhang. You are right. I am from Nanhua, but this is my root." Lin Yimin nodded. He was wearing a suit, making this action a little awkward, but Zhang Taiyan accepted it calmly.

"It's not respectful to meet for the first time." Lin Yimin handed over a copybook.

Zhang Taiyan opened it and said in amazement, "Lanting Preface? This is-no work, no merit, no merit, this is too expensive, I can't afford it."

He pushed the thing back to Lin Yimin.

"Mr. Zhang is not welcome, this is not the original. Imitation, imitation." Lin Yimin explained with a smile.Xin said: "The original is hidden in the young master's collection room, so I am not willing to give it to you?"

"Oh?" Zhang Taiyan hurriedly lowered his head to read the copybook carefully, and praised as he read it: "Yes, it is a copy, but it is very realistic, and it is also a rare masterpiece."

"Mr. Zhang likes it. It's useless to leave it with me. Give it to people with lofty ideals!" Lin Yimin smiled.

For others, this kind of calligraphy and painting is hard to find, but for Lin Yimin, there is no pressure at all.

Zhimeizhai bought a large number of cultural relics and antiques in Beijing and Tianjin, and most of the things that flowed out of the Forbidden City were secretly bought by Zhimeizhai.When visiting Zhang Taiyan this time, Lin Yimin specially selected an imitation that was tasteful and not so precious to be rejected.

Zhang Taiyan liked this work very much and accepted this nice gift unceremoniously.He looked at Lin Yimin, and didn't hide his affection for this young man.

"I've heard a lot about Nanhua, and there are many rumors outside. Recently, many people went to Nanyang. Can Mr. Lin tell me about Nanhua? I want to know how you defeated the Dutch?"

Zhang Taiyan asked, watching Lin Yimin with piercing eyes.He knew that Xu Wei brought Lin Yimin to the door today, and he estimated that the matter was related to Nanhua.

"The situation in South China is basically the same as the rumors outside. Generally speaking, it is the Chinese Communist Party and the Meihua Company to form a Chinese army. It took ten years of firm belief to achieve today's results. In the middle, we spent a lot of effort and sweat. It's not something others can experience." Lin Yimin said with emotion.

"Now that Nanhua is all Han Chinese?" Zhang Taiyan asked excitedly.

"Yes. Now that the Nanhua government, army, and economy are in the hands of the Han people, we are no longer bullied." Lin Yimin proudly said.

"Good job. This should be done." Zhang Taiyan clapped his hands.

He is the most staunch democrat. Even though he has heard of it countless times, he can't help but applaud after hearing the news of Nanhua from the person concerned.

Lin Yimin nodded, thinking that this strange-tempered "zhang lunatic" is actually a lover of personality, and it doesn't seem difficult to talk.

He continued: "Whether it is recruiting workers and migrants or absorbing investment, what we are doing is to enable the Han people to digest the newly acquired territory as soon as possible.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. 1.4 million square kilometers of territory and millions of square kilometers of ocean will be Han Chinese in the future.Time, capital, technology, talents, all things are very precious to us, and we must fight for any opportunity."

"It should be!" Zhang Taiyan nodded and agreed.

"Oh!" Lin Yimin sighed.

"Why does Mr. Lin sigh?" Zhang Taiyan asked with some doubts, he was excited about Nan Hua's appearance.

"Easily said, but harder to do!" Lin Yimin raised his head and looked at Zhang Taiyan with some expectation, and explained, "The situation in Nanhua is actually not very optimistic. After all, we are a minority and we have to face a large number of indigenous people. Their population is dozens of times that of ours, and they are culturally incompatible with us. I am afraid that in a few decades, the South Chinese will become those Nyonyas who can't speak Chinese.
