249  Lantern

After sending Pan Jinxing away, the ship had already sailed into the middle of the river. Zheng Abao, Wang Yu's family Xi Xiangdao, three people sat around the small square table slightly close to the deck of the bow. The ship was not big. Zheng Abao leaned against the bamboo fence and placed one hand on the table. He looked very leisurely, but he turned his head slightly and looked at the river water under his feet, pointing to the wound on his head, and said to Wang Xi and the others with a sorry face:

"Two, I didn't mean to swear words just now. I'm really a catchphrase when I'm anxious. Look at my wound, I've only been in Longchuan for such a little while. I've lost weight because I have lost insomnia every day. Yesterday it was 9 o'clock again. I watched the spiders in the textile factory build nets on the board of the sky and see the dawn. Now I can't sleep even if I can't sleep. If I can't sleep, I'm prone to worry..."

As he said that, Zheng Abao sighed with a depressed and smiled, "You see, I'm talking in a mess now, and I can't do anything. When I came, I thought I was here to come for a vacation in this beautiful place. Who would have thought that the election was too creepy and was simply a terrible person... Although I am a salesman and public relations person, my usual job is to speak, accompany customers and adults, and I think I can speak the world, but what I said in Longchuan these days is almost exhausted. Every day,

At the group of untouchables... No, no, no, howl loudly at a group of lovely villagers every day, feeling that my liver was howling out by myself... Just talking is pretty good, who knows that it is so tired. The thing introduced by Your Majesty is like a Western boxing fight, and he fights with the grandson of Zhong Jialiang, and he keeps fighting back and forth, no one dares to stop. I can fight for 10 minutes. I used to play with Boy Scouts, but who can withstand it for two weeks in minutes..."

Wang Yu's family sitting opposite him showed impatientness on his face. He was not a friend of Mr. Bao, nor did he intend to curry favor with him. He was impatient and his face appeared. He immediately knocked on the table with his fingers, interrupting Zheng Abao to complain and asked, "Master Bao, when you asked me to come up just now, you said it was about my glass factory. What was it?"

Young Master Bao is a chatterbox, but the chatterbox is essentially changing with his mask: for useful people, his face is smiling, and he talks at the other person's face; for his subordinates or people who are not as good as him, the chatterbox is to say with pleasure that others should understand what he means, or "sigh" or "sigh" or "empathize with it". Now he is in a hurry, he is interrupted by Wang Yu's family without any eyes, as if eating is stuck in his throat. He lowered his chin, swallowed his saliva, and kept squeezing the fence like a lobster on his back, as if he wanted to spit out the things in his throat.

The Wang Yu family ignored this and looked at him steadily. Xi Xiangdao next to him stared at him, as if the two creditors were eager to know when Zheng Abao on the opposite side would pay off his debt.

Zheng Abao was stunned for a while, shook his head, turned his head and looked at the river water, as if he had spitted something into the river water. Then he turned his head pitifully with two dark circles. He looked at Wang Yu's family and said, "Elder Wang, don't worry about your factory. I'll find you a little Jewish from BNP Paribas, and my friend Zhao Jin**. I'll tell you: You can't let so many people have no food to eat; let alone your business situation is always good, just talk about your equipment and land factory, according to the current market price of Longchuan, you won't be able to pay the loan. So don't worry, you must open a mén for you next Monday."

When Wang Yu's family and Xi Xiangdao were surprised at the same time when they heard that "next Monday" was the day after tomorrow, they were shocked: although the factory was closed by the other party's thunder attack, the two ignorant people really did not expect that the glass factory would be able to reopen the day after tomorrow.

Seeing the two of them being stunned, Zheng Abao's eyes turned, and he laughed, patted Wang Yu's shoulder, poured him tea with his own hands, and shouted: "Congratulations, Elder Wang."

Wang Yujia and Xi Xiangdao confirmed the information to Zheng Abao. The two of them were finally overjoyed at the same time. At the same time, they held their hands, lowered their heads, closed their eyes, and muttered something in their mouths, looking at the shape of their mouths, such as "Thank God" and "Lord, thank you".

Zheng Abao continued to smile on his face, even if the other party closed his eyes and prayed. After a minute, the smile on his face was like a yellow-blooded person who put on heavy makeup on to start a business, and it was soft and stuck on his face.

The secretary beside him just saw the boss bringing teapot to the guests. He rushed over quickly and took the teapot from Zheng Abao and stood between the three of them. After waiting for a while, he saw Wang Yu's family and Xi Xiangdao ending the prayer with joy on their faces. He was determined to help the boss leave a good impression on the two of them. So he quickly took the hot tea that had just been poured in front of Wang Yu's family, and his wrists shook on Jiang Xin. While pouring the tea again, he pretended to be careless and said: "Elder Wang, congratulations, our boss has been running at both BNP Paribas and Yam for your sake. He couldn't sleep at night and said, 'It's not a problem for so many brothers in the glass factory to have no food to eat'. What's wrong? I've done it today, and he has forgotten his mind..."

Wang Yu's family didn't understand, but Xi Xiangdao understood. He poked his old friend next to him and said, "Old Wang, since Young Master Bao is running for your business, you should thank him..."

Zheng Abao on the other side was waiting for this. When he heard this, he immediately shook his whole body and stretched out his hands forward, shaking his back so hard that the fence behind him blew, and shouted, "Oh, don't thank me, don't thank me what I should do..."

Wang Yu's family, who seemed to be thinking, raised their heads and nodded at Zheng Abao, muttering, "Thank you." Then they turned to Xi Xiangdao and shouted, "Old Xi, I said that my factory is fine because I can't afford the loan, so I'm not worried at all. I'm doing it right and doing it straight, what are you afraid of? Isn't God giving us this principle? It's just a trial for God and my brothers. No... probably because we have done less fasting and praying recently, so we just give us a chance to get close to Him..."

He talked freely, not caring about the "credits" of Master Bao at all, and gave all the "masters" to God and the truth. He threw the Master Bao aside, making the other person's face turn blue and white. He stretched out his humble hands and stiffened for a while before he letting go.

The secretary next to him was stunned with the teapot and said to himself: "This man is loyal and honest. Is he cheating in his heart? After seeing through the boss's tricks, he deliberately humiliated him? No, how dare he humiliate the boss so much in his heart? He said this in person."

He talked and laughed and "humiliated" Zheng Abao. Wang Yujia smiled and turned his face, bowed to Zheng Abao and said, "Young Master Bao, thank you for notifying me of this. I am really grateful to God for your grace. So do you have anything else to do? Can you send me back?"

He forced the far breech gun out of the fence and shot the heart of the country bumpkin to death. Zheng Abao gritted his teeth and continued to stick the thick makeup of the old slippery fùnv on his face again, and said with a smile: "Elder Wang, look, I not only invited you to come this time, but also invited Elder Xi to come. In fact, it is not just your glass factory. Who doesn't know that you are a devout Christian? Not to mention the glass factory, even if it is a gold mine, you won't take it seriously. This is a small matter, and I still have big things to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Wang Xi and the others asked together.

Zheng Abao pulled off the "smile and heavy makeup" that was covered in shame and threw it into Dongjiang behind him. He stretched his head over and lowered his voice in a thief manner, saying, "Zhang Qijie may be going to hell."

"Old Zhang? Hell?" Wang Yu's family was stunned for a moment when they heard this, then suddenly grabbed Zheng Abao's shoulder with his back hand and shouted: "Why are you Lao Zhang? What did you ask him to do again?"

He grabbed and yelled, this time was so amazing. Those who dared to treat Zheng Abao like this could count it with one hand on the entire empire.

The secretary next to him took a quick step, which made him throw the teapot in his hand away. The bodyguard also stretched out his head from the stern of the cabin and the bow of the boat, but Zheng Abao straightened his arms high at them, meaning: "It's okay, don't move."

Then the arm bent down, carefully patted the hand of Wang Yu's family, who was holding his shoulder, and said, "Elder Wang, don't move. You know what he did, it's Pan Jinxing's thing. Let's talk slowly."

Hearing this, Wang Yu's family let go of their palms, stared at Zheng Abao and slowly sat upright. Xi Xiangdao next to him came over and asked, "What's going on? Lao Wang, is Lao Zhang not dangerous?"

"No danger, no danger." Zheng Abao also sat upright, picked up the teacup, glanced at Wang Yu's house with dark circles, took a sip of tea, then raised his chin and said, "Elder Wang, to be honest, since you suddenly announced that you had withdrawn from the Liberal Party that day, we actually have no chance to have a good chat. We all blame me for insomnia, too much pressure, and too many things. It's me wrong, God, forgive me for not careful mistakes. Now I want to ask you Elder Wang, what are the reasons for you to withdraw from the Liberal Party?"

Wang Yu's family rubbed his teeth and did not respond. Instead, they said to Zheng Abao: "Master Bao, tell us what happened to Lao Zhang first? I'm not a fool. There is nothing wrong. You won't be so polite to me."

Zheng Abao's eyes swam around Wang Yu's house like a snake tongue. Yin laughed and said, "Elder Wang, if you want to talk about Zhang Qijie, first talk about why you quit the Liberal Party. This is not my chat, and I will not invite you here with great fanfare and then chat. Please, my Elder Wang."

Wang Yu's family wanted to speak, but stuttered for a moment. Then he pointed to Xi Xiang, who had his ears erected, and asked Zheng Abao, "That day in the office, I swear by the Bible and I won't vent the content of the conversation. Now that Lao Xi is here, is it convenient to say?"

Zheng Abao grinned and said, "If I don't trust Elder Xi, I won't invite him over, just say whatever you want."

"Oh, I forgot that Young Master Bao was skipping rope with the law, and he talked about evidence and we were empty talk." The rare mean words of Wang Yu's family made the secretary next to him tremble, and then the goose-like man shrugged his shoulders and said carelessly: "Why did I quit the Liberal Party? Young Master Bao, you asked knowingly. That day, Zhang Qijie said in person that Pan Jinxing had come to him, and that Qing people on the shore. But things have developed like this, can I still be with you?"

"Scared, Lao Zhang personally said that Pan Jinxing was the Qing Dynasty who won the money?" Xi Xiangdao next to him was startled. He stared at Zheng and Wang, who were a little disregarded, and murmured: "I thought you were convinced by Pan Jinxing."

After Wang Yu's family finished speaking at the foot of Xiangdao, they moved a little. He clenched his hands into fists and knocked his chest at the same time and said to Zheng Abao:

"Mr. Bao, I am obeying the freedom of the founding of the Liberal Party from the bottom of my heart. The freedom to eliminate the devil is to eliminate the people, everyone, the freedom of the powerful to commit crimes (sin), and put everyone in the cage of Jesus Christ. Everyone is in love with brothers and sisters, unite, be friendly and help each other, and we are all local merchants of the Song Dynasty. We form a party and unite, and we can prevent the black and white power figures such as Liu Guojian and Weng Quanguang from infringing on the interests of our powerless businessmen, and externally resist the commercial competition of the great powers. After all, we Song people also have to have a meal, and everyone must be worthy of our duty. What a great thing."

Speaking of this, Wang Yu's family sighed heavily, stretched out their arms, pointed at Zheng Abao's nose unscrupulously again and shouted: "But what are you and Lao Zhang doing? You want to destroy everyone's freedom and let everyone enter their own moral cage. However, you and Lao Zhang are unscrupulous and lawless, openly lying, turning black and white, and killing people. You are not free. You are so free that you dance Western dance on the cage. This lawless freedom is the freedom to go to hell. I can't join you. What I want to join is to destroy the Liberal Party, not your veritable Liberal Party, which is the Satan Party of Hell."

"Scare to kill someone?" Xi Xiangdao's eyes widened even wider, and he couldn't even close his mouth.

"Elder Xi and Elder Wang both misunderstood. That's just a saying. Look, aren't Pan Jinxing and Huang Laopi both jumping lively? Brother Pan was chasing me and asking for fish." Zheng Abao immediately turned his head and smiled at Xi Xiangdao denied it, taking the opportunity to breathe, and endured the anger of being pointed at the nose and scolded him to hell. Even those who disbelief of Jesus the most were vaguely afraid of this.

To sort out the anger in Xiong's mouth, Zheng Abao carefully bowed forward, and his hand quickly and gently held the hand that was pointing at the nose, just like a handsome French man holding the French young man NV's hand. He looked at the surprised Wang Yu family and said in the most sincere tone: "Elder Wang, I was wrong. I admit that I was wrong. I committed a sin. Last night, I actually knelt down and prayed for an hour to pray to God for forgiveness of my sins. Here I also ask you to forgive my sins and my transgressions. Elder Wang, is it okay to come back to the Liberal Party?"

Back to the Liberal Party?

When Wang Yu family and Xi Xiangdao heard this, they were both stunned. Wang Yu family even forgot to put down their grasped hands.

Zheng Abao didn't wait for the other party to speak, changed his left hand to his right hand, and changed his grasping position from being rude to shaking hands. As if he was a brother, he held the other party's hand and shook it gently, and begged again: "Elder Wang, I admire you so much. True gold needs fire to be refined. You are the closest Christian I have ever seen to the truth. I am a person, you know, too busy, busy with career and loyalty to the emperor every day, and neglected my soul. I was wrong, I admit it. But a teaching

Yes, a party and an empire, it is impossible to have no head. This head must be someone like you. For example, what you said on the shore, someone must be light and salt, someone must be dedicated to God, and someone must be asking for God's grace, because darkness and Satan are always going to erode our fragile hearts. In a word, the Liberal Party cannot do without you. Is it good to build a cage for the Liberal Party? As long as you come back, I am willing to be the first to enter the cage."

"You?Liberal Party?Me?" Wang Yu's family stammered, but his expression was not at all moved. It would be better to say that the sheep looked at the wolf and swearing: "I really won't bite you again this time." That expression, Zheng Abao was like an explosion in his heart. It was so powerful that it could affect him. You would never guess what he wanted to do next.

Seeing that the other party was still in a state of not being moved at all, Zheng Abao increased his strength and now he was shaking his hands tightly, and seemed to have made up his mind. He shouted: "Elder Wang, if you don't believe it, I will sign the document immediately and announce to the newspaper that you are the chief of the Discipline Committee of the Longchuan Liberal Party... No, no, no... Is it the head of the Discipline Committee of the Liberal Party Branch of Huizhou Prefecture? You have the power of life and death, just like the supervision team. Whoever does not do well, you have the right to expel the other party from the party."

As he said that, he shook the other party's hand and pleaded, "You like the purpose of the Liberal Party. Do I not like it? But you also know that Paul said in the Bible: I have good hearts, but I can't do it, please pity me, a poor person. I really want to turn the Liberal Party into our purpose, and I must do that, because this is what Your Majesty set for us. I personally cannot do it. We must be like you to be a whip and a monkey like me into the cage. Our Liberal Party is a piece of rotten ròu, and you must help with this piece of salt."

Seeing that this empire Jingying not only made a public official and made a wish, but later he began to beg him completely. Even the title changed from "you" to "you", everyone was stunned. Wang Yu's family was stunned for a while, and looked up and said, "Young Master Bao, you read the Bible well."

Zheng Abao was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he thought to himself, "I'm scratching this egg and itchy?" He immediately shouted: "Then I'll definitely go to a party with the pastors and mentors in the capital when I have time, and listen to the sermons. I read the Bible myself, and I'm very hard-working. You know, the Bible speaks the truth, but I'm a mortal, and I can't do it."

Xi next to him nodded and said, "It is impossible to be saved by man himself, so he must be saved by the blood of Jesus."

"Yes, Elder Xi knows my hardship." Zheng Abao nodded repeatedly and said anxiously: "I usually compete with foreigners in my daily work. Doing business with Qing people is a life-and-death business. Moreover, many people are not Christians, and they have no routine to do things. They are all monkeys who dance outside the cage. One is more ill-hearted than the other. I slowly learn bad things from them."

Then he looked up at Xi Xiangdao and Wang Yujia and said at the same time: "Jesus said that the lampstand cannot be placed under the chuáng. If you want to take it to the stage, you can see more people. Elder Wang is such a good Christian. Of course, it is light. I am not light, but I can be a dark lampstand. Elder Wang, think about it, you can preach with the lampstand of the Liberal Party. What do you say, countless newspapers will rush to report to readers that you have only 100 people on the shore. In our Liberal Party, there will be 1 million people listening to you. Isn't this the good intention of Jesus? Yes, I am not good, I have made many mistakes, but think about the 1,000 business jings that will join the Liberal Party in the future.

Ying, don’t they need you to preach and persuade or even stop them from committing crimes? For us, the big merchants, the law is useless, the party constitution is useless, and no rules are useless. We are all very smart and powerful. We can jump around and escape from the cage at will. At this time, we need Elder Wang, you, a human force like you, to turn the tide, use your body to make a bolt, use your loyalty to God, and use your unbuyable morality to weld the iron into the cage. You are not for me, but for the Liberal Party, for the merchants, for the people of the world. Please come back to the Liberal Party and turn the Liberal Party into a huge church. In this way, Jesus will be happy."

Xi Xiangdao heard Zheng Abao say it very reasonably. He cared more about the effectiveness of preaching. Seeing that Zheng Abao was sincere, he turned to Wang Yu's family and said, "Since that's the case, you might as well join. It sounds like it can help many people."

Wang Yu's family was already moved by Zheng Abao's words. He thought about it, scratched his scalp, and grinned: "What should Pan Jinxing do? He didn't get a penny. Did Lao Zhang repent? Are you willing to recognize Pan Jinxing again?"

Seeing Zheng Abao being stunned when he heard this question, he suddenly had nothing to say. Wang Yu's family took the opportunity to chuckle out and nodded, "Master Bao, you said you admitted your mistake, but you know, we Christians can repent not just talk, we must also abandon sin in behavior. If Pan Jinxing's fairness cannot be solved, I cannot think you repent and I will not go back to the Liberal Party."

"Fortunately I guess you would say this, otherwise I would have thought of shooting you to death when you suddenly heard you talk to me like a carefree father." Zheng Abao blinked and looked at Wang Yu's family in his stomach. He was silent for a while, spread his arms and said, "Elder Wang, I have encouraged Lao Zhang for Pan Jinxing, but you also understand that it is not me who dominates this matter. I just provide a way. The one who really makes the choice is Zhang Qijie. He chose this way himself. He does not really repent, I can point a gun at him or testify himself to return Pan Jinxing to justice. He may be able to give money immediately, but the sin in Zhang Qijie's heart is irrelevant because his heart has not repent."

Speaking of this, Zheng Abao asked the secretary for a cigar, and returned to his leisurely posture just now. He leaned against the fence and lit the fire. He sipped a cigar and spit out a cigarette. Then he looked at the two people who gathered in the world and said in a deep voice:
Chapter completed!
