By the way, Chen Liang lived a very happy life in Xinhua.

The housing construction business undertaken by West China Construction Company has reached Ezhou in the north and Jiujiang in the east. As for the nearby Changsha, Yuezhou and Changde Mansion, the housing construction business is still intensive.

The continuous expansion of cement, tiles and cement tiles is still not enough to meet the market demand, especially cement. The momentum has increased by three or five times, and it is still a drop in the bucket. The sales of wax paper printing equipment have steadily increased, but Chen Liang has taken very little care of this. The production of timepieces has always maintained a very low production capacity, which makes demand even more strong.

The "Xinbao" under Chen Liang's presidency also added prints again and again, and Chen Liang was not worried that the "Great Song Beijing News" would steal the limelight of the "Xinbao".

Chen Liang is also the interim CEO of Mao's Group's construction, manufacturing and media publishing industries, and is very glorious for a while.

But Chen Liang's fulfilling and awesome days changed with a letter from Mao Geng.

After receiving a letter from Mao Geng, Chen Liang was also excited to successfully negotiate the Chameng project. Although Chameng was small, people built a palace at all. Although Chen Liang had the dream of building the most awesome building for the Song Dynasty from the beginning, he also knew the principle of gradual progress. As the West China Construction Company undertakes more and more house construction work and the scale is getting bigger and bigger, Chen Liang's appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Chen Liang likes challenging things. Ordinary building houses can no longer make Chen Liang feel excited, but building Chameng Royal Palace is obviously a challenging task. Chen Liang weighs the trade-offs and decides that this overseas project is worth doing.

Chen Liang made some arrangements to Lin'an, not to mention whether he would go to Cham City or not, the Cham City Palace has been revised anyway. However, Chen Liang had no hesitation when he needed to travel to the distant Cham City. Although he could show his political talents and teach the extra-south gang's government affairs, he could also comfort his life. However, Chen Liang had never sailed on the sea and was very hesitant.

Chen Liang knew that if he wanted to build a palace, he could not take it lightly. He had to have a group of skilled subordinates. However, many people retreated when they heard that they were going to sail. Although Chen Liang offered four times the wages, there were still very few people willing to take risks. In fact, Chen Liang's West China Construction Company had been expanding repeatedly during this period. Taking advantage of the increasing number of people coming to Xinhua, West China Construction Company recruited people every time. Now the third and fourth construction branches each have more than 400 people. According to Chen Liang's plan, he had to send at least 120 teams to Cham City. This was the idea of ​​asking locals to be small workers, but after getting together, he could not get fifty craftsmen who were willing to cross the sea to Cham City.

Of course, this matter cannot be hidden from the people of Qujiadong, but Qu Wengu and Xiang Yixuan did not express their enthusiasm for going to Chameng City. Chen Liang could not do so, so he had to think of a way to recruit people at high salaries again, and planned to lure a lot of money among the new group of rebellious people coming to Xinhua to coax and confuse them, and gather the remaining more than 70 people.

But that night, an uninvited guest suddenly came. As soon as he opened his mouth, he claimed that he could help recruit the people Chen Liang needed. Chen Liang looked at this person and felt that he was extremely powerful and naturally had a domineering attitude when he spoke. Chen Liang suddenly felt good about him and asked him to sit down. Chen Liang felt that if the visitor could summon a group of people to Chameng, he would have some skills, but he didn't know what his conditions were.

Chen Liang was eager to understand how the visitor could use to gather people who dared to go overseas, but after the visitor sat down, he asked Chen Liang for wine. Chen Liang was originally a drunkard, so he immediately ordered people to serve wine and food, and the two of them immediately drank each other.

While drinking, the person came said:

"Mr. Chen is a very famous figure. He condescended to me, Xinhua and became the director of West China Construction Company. Mr. Chen can stretch and bend, and he is very impressed. After admiring Mr. Chen's name for a long time, he has always wanted to find an opportunity to have a drink with Mr. Chen, but he doesn't want to get what he wants today. He is really lucky!"

Chen Liang had drunk alcohol before and was a little drunk. He heard someone's compliment and couldn't help feeling a little fluttering and said:

"I think you are also a person, so why do you want to help me? In addition, after all, you have to leave home thousands of miles away from home when you go overseas. I also know that it is difficult for you to make people happy to go there?"

When the visitor heard this, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it dry. The wine was dripping on his face. He didn't take it seriously at all, just smiled:

"Mr. Chen, do you know who is here?"

Chen Liang didn't give in and dried the wine in the bowl in one mouthful, and said with a smile:

"You and I meet are destined to meet. I see you are interesting, so I invite you to drink. Whatever he does with his clichéd etiquette! Haha, how can I know who you are! Since you say that, I would like to ask you who is the hero?"

The person who came picked up his thumbs up and praised:

"Happy! Mr. Chen is a happy person."

This man said again:

"I admire Mr. Chen so much that I am overwhelmed by him. If I sign up for my reputation, Mr. Chen will not be inconvenient to me!"

Chen Liang smiled:

"I have always admired heroes and heroes. Is it because brother Taiwan is a knight and his subordinates have hurt people? Don't worry, I don't think you are like those who are trying to make money and kill. Could it be that you are helping you when you see injustice and cause trouble! Even so, it's okay. How can I be disadvantageous to you!"

Chen Liang claimed to be a character like Zhuge Liang, and liked heroes and strangers in advance. He also admired the heroes of Jing Ke, so this statement was not false.

The visitor was relieved to hear this and then told the truth:

"I am the former lord of Qujiadong. My name is Qu Laisan. I admire Mr. Chen in my heart. Mr. Chen has made a lot of efforts for my Qujiadong. Please receive the next gift."

After saying that, Qu Lai San bowed to his head.

Chen Liang was extremely shocked for a moment, and woke up three points from the wine, and said in surprise:

"You---you, haven't you----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Qu Lai San smiled and said:

"I also know that Mr. Chen has many questions, so I will come one by one."

However, it turned out that Qu Lai San's so-called "death after falling into the water" was a man-made situation from the beginning, and was planned by Qu Lai San. The reason why Qu Lai San pretended to be dead was actually another purpose. Qu Lai San did not hide it and said:

"I found a cave underground that day. This cave is very large and wide. Compared with the rumors that the bearded guest is living in seclusion here, I think this is the place where the bearded guest lived in seclusion back then. I will not hide it from Mr. Chen. Since then, I have been focusing on overseas. I also want to follow the story of the bearded guest, traveling across the ocean and making achievements in the extra world. I disappear in front of others, and have various benefits. My Qujiadong can win the favor of Mr. Mao, and accumulate wealth in a legitimate way. I never thought that I would get the help of Mr. Chen in the future, and it would be even more prosperous today. It is really gratifying. Therefore, my move is really cost-effective."

When Chen Liang heard this, he thought that Qu Lai San's acting as a pretender to be dead really made the situation in Qu Jiadong particularly vivid. He couldn't help but admire the legendary half-band and half-shang character in front of him. He wanted to imitate the story of the bearded guest and wanted to be king overseas. He pretended to die to accumulate wealth in advance. His mind was sinister and cruel. Although he could not be called a hero, he was also a tiger and wolf man. So Chen Liang raised the person in front of him by a higher level and praised him immediately:

"Brother Qu is indeed a good method! But why are you willing to show up again today?"

Seeing that Chen Liang had no intention of blame, Qu Laisan, instead, had an appreciation beyond words. He then raised his neck and drank the wine in the bowl and said solemnly:

"Mr. Chen has encountered a difficult situation now. This is also the matter of my Qu family. Qu Wengu, Xiang Yixuan, or even Qu Yaolong, they are all lacking authority and it is difficult for him to help him gather people to Cham City. This is one of them. Secondly, in front of the real person, I don't tell lies, I also want to follow Mr. Chen to Cham City to see what overseas foreign countries look like. I heard that there was a surname of Wu in the Song Dynasty and was doing well there. Hehe, I also want to go and weigh the weight of overseas foreign countries. Therefore, I am very abrupt today. I came to visit Mr. Chen alone. Mr. Chen would not think that I have any malicious intentions!"

While listening, Chen Liang thought about it, and could not understand the purpose of Qu Laisan's coming here. It seemed that this person really wanted to be king overseas. Whether he wanted to accept this person was a little difficult for a while.

Seeing that Chen Liang was pondering and silent, Qu Laisan knew that Chen Liang was worried, so he said:

"If I go, of course, I will make building a palace the top priority. If I want to do something about it, I will naturally obey Mr. Chen. Anyway, I will never make things difficult for Mr. Chen."

Chen Liang guessed that the other party's thoughts were broken, and he still looked thoughtful, but he picked up the wine bowl from time to time, which seemed difficult to decide.

After all, Qu Lai San was a warrior. Seeing this, he was anxious and said a little discouraged:

"If Mr. Chen feels it is inappropriate, then I have to say goodbye."

Chen Liang laughed, stopped Qu Laisan and said with a sigh:

"Since Brother Qu trusts me so much, it is worth taking some risks for Brother Qu. However, this matter must be done secretly and cannot be learned about it from the outside world, especially Mr. Mao cannot learn about it, otherwise it will be difficult for me to be a brother."

Qu Lai San's identity was too shameful, so he naturally agreed. In Chen Liang's mind, it was not important to have any suspicion of whether Qu Lai San was a bandit. Anyway, no one would pursue Qu Lai San's life experience when he went to Chameng. Just change his name. If this person voluntarily goes, the people from Qujiadong would have to follow him if they didn't go, which would save himself the trouble of recruiting people all over the world. The two of them took their own needs, and they were all happy. But Chen Liang also knew that there were some disadvantages in this matter. If Mao Geng knew about it, he might object, so he could only act in secret.

Chen Liang has always been arbitrarily when encountering things, and the same is true when encountering this incident today. According to common sense, such a strange thing should be communicated with Mao Geng. But Chen Liang just wanted to hide it from Mao Geng.

But in this way, Chen Liang had to think of a problem, that is, once Qu Lai San went to Chameng, he would have to go there himself to control this person. Instead, he thought that he had learned civil and military skills over the years, but he had been talented and had no way to serve the country. At least he had this opportunity to fool the kings of the extra country and try his best to become famous in the foreign country first, and then work hard for the country. This so-called serving the country in a curve is also a different way.

In this way, Chen Liang, with a contradictory mood, accompanied him with a crew of people and a fleet full of various material materials, passed through Zishui, entered Dongting, turned to the Yangtze River, and then guided by the sea boat to go straight to Hangzhou Bay.

Chen Liang settled his fleet and came to Lin'an to meet Wen Yuan. Wen Yuan naturally wanted to persuade Chen Liang to go to Chameng. Chen Liang experienced a sea voyage this time, but he didn't think anything was wrong, so he agreed.

Next, Chen Liang met with Zou Yalian and agreed to go to Chameng together. Zou Yalian would not invite Cai Jianwen to see him off again.

During this period, Cai Jianwen sent someone to find Jiang Kui. Jiang Kui was worried about the two beauties of Hefei and went to Hefei to find him. Unfortunately, the two sisters had already been in a state of beauty, so Jiang Kui returned to Lin'an with regret. Chen Liang was a very lively person. He was making friends and traveling across the ocean to Chameng City, so he encouraged Jiang Kui to go with him. Jiang Kui was frustrated in love and had no way to advance in the officialdom. He appreciated Chen Liang and actually responded to Chen Liang's request.

The fleet arrived at Quanzhou all the way. According to the prior plan, Cai Jianwen sent it to Quanzhou and no longer sent it. The fleet sailed directly to Chameng.

But when Chen Liang heard that Penghu was almost on his voyage to Chameng, he suddenly thought of going to Penghu again. The reason was that Chen Liang was still a little worried about traveling with Qu Lai San, so he thought about asking the Song Dynasty to send a naval ship to escort. Chen Liangxin said that he had a diplomatic mission to go there. From this perspective, he had enough reason to ask the Song Dynasty to send a ship to escort.
