Chapter 674: Go to military school! You can try!
At around nine o'clock in the morning on the first day of the New Year, Cao Dongfang drove his three children out to pay New Year's greetings.
Start from Uncle Xie’s house, give the children some items that cannot be bought on the market, and then go from the three people’s house to Old Wei’s house.
"Mr. Wei, I'm here to see you. How do you feel after a month of retirement? Do you need to come back to work?" Cao Dongfang greeted first.
&34;You don't have to go to work. You have performed well this month. I know you can discuss things with us when there is something to discuss.
We held a two-day meeting on the allowance increase, and you didn't act arbitrarily, which is very good. You held several meetings for small matters, and everyone's opinions were taken seriously.
You performed very well, and most of the meetings were about mutual respect and compromise! &34;
"This is a small matter. I understand. It's not a war. I won't act arbitrarily. I'm not a warlord like those from decades ago!"
&34;I am afraid that you are young and energetic!&34;
"If you're not angry, are you still a young man? I can tell the difference between big and small things!"
&34;We set off fireworks last night. They were more beautiful than the ones we set off when our country was first founded! &34;
"Can we see it here too?" Cao Dongfang asked.
"Haha, in the whole East City, where can you not see them? It wasn't someone from the East City Patrol who reported you setting off fireworks."
I guess the army will ask you if you want to go out. Your fireworks are bigger and higher than those set off when the country was founded. Half of the city will be as bright as day.
If you have money you can buy some abroad, buy some and put them at the front door to boost people's morale. &34;
"This is a good idea! Next year I will order a batch of fireworks from Hong Kong and several Chinatown fireworks shops in foreign countries, and let them go for four hours."
From 34 o'clock to :, million Eagle Sauce coins are enough! &;
"You are really rich. It's so easy for you to say 34 million US dollars! Ask the country!"
......
&34;Mr. Wei, I set off 2700 large fireworks in Universe Kingdom on New Year's Eve, using tons of explosives.
Their shipbuilding and electronics industries are basically half-ruined. I estimate that within a week, the Universe will be very lively! "Cao Dongfang spoke in a low voice.
Old Wei and Cao Dongfang were sitting ten meters away from Cao's mother and Aunt Wei, so they were not worried that they could hear them.
"Ha, it's New Year's Eve and you're already starting to pick on the Universe. You're really brave. Aren't you afraid that North Korea will attack the Universe and that the Eagle Sauce people will send troops?"
"It is basically impossible to start a war. Five years later, when the Russian bear becomes stronger, it is possible. Now the Russian bear is still a little weak.
If Russia doesn't send troops and we don't send troops, the possibility that North Korea will send troops is no more than 5%, which is basically impossible.
Unless the Universe is too desperate and forces North Korea to send troops, they have the American troops stationed there to back them up.
North Korea still has to ask the Russians and us. As long as we don’t send troops, it would be best if the Russians and the Americans started fighting on the peninsula.
We will guard the Yalu River and watch the fun, sell arms, and I will help them bleed, and beat them half to death at best. The economy of the Eagle Sauce people is already in bad shape, and the losses in the Monkey Kingdom are too great.
In general, there is no war on the peninsula, only verbal battles! The Universal States will show their ability to speak like a king. There is nothing to be afraid of! &34;
&34;Just be prepared. I'll stay at home and watch the fun. The road outside our door is being repaired, so it's inconvenient to go out! &34;
"There's less fun here, let's have some fun!" Cao Dongfang said with a smile.
"Dongfang, I want to tell you something. Your brother Jianjun, you have met him. He will be transferred back after the new year. Where do you think it would be better for him to go?" asked Elder Wei.
&34;I know that Brother Jianjun has been transferred back to the Ministry of National Defense, and will stay in the Operations Department for a few years to study hard.
After about two or three years, let him go for further studies and then get promoted. Then the road will be wide open! &34;
&34;Go there for further studies!&34;
&34;After the Chinese New Year this year, I plan to apply to the state to establish a new military academy, the 'National Defense University', which will include training classes for mid- and senior-level officers.
In the process of merging and rebuilding some military academies, our military academies are not rational anymore. There are too many in the Army, too few in the Navy, Air Force and Second Artillery. We need to reposition each military academy! &34;
"If you bring it up this year, it shouldn't be a problem. Do you have the money to build a military academy?"
"It won't be a big problem to build a new military academy, and other military academies can be reclassified as military academies within three years."
"I understand. Jianjun needs to go to the middle-level officer training, and then he can be promoted to a senior officer. I didn't expect that I would worry about this child all my life. I am really old!"
"This is normal. Brother Jianjun suffered because he didn't have a diploma. His other resume is not bad. He just needs to study further. In the future, the father is a hero and the son is also a hero!" Cao Dongfang said with a smile.
&34;You keep talking nonsense, just to piss me off! Now I feel relieved! &34;
"It's not a big deal. Brother Jianjun has several college diplomas at his age. Your request is too harsh."
"So I'm retired now, no matter what!" Mr. Wei said with a smile.
"It's okay!" Cao Dongfang asked.
&34;It's okay!&34;
.......
"Aunt Wei, I'll give you a pill. After taking it, you'll be as young and beautiful as my mom. This is the medicine we martial artists use.
I just found all the herbs last month. If you use this pill, you will be 34 years younger. You will age slower than others in the future! Cao Dongfang took out the porcelain bottle.
"Hahaha, thank you Dongfang. I just told your mom about this. Your mom said you had to have one for me."
Great, I'll take it now, and Dongfang will go heat up the food later! "Auntie Wei said and left in a hurry.
"Mr. Wei, what do you want to eat? I'll go heat up the food!"
&34;Sweet and Sour Carp is fine, you can decide for yourself for the others! &34;
"Uncle, braised pork!" Duoduo wanted to eat meat again.
&34;Eating braised pork every day is not enough for you. Eat something else, such as roasted lamb in the evening! &34;
"Okay! Sweet and sour pork! Steamed lamb! Stewed beef with potatoes! "It's all meat again.
"What do you want to eat?" Cao Dongfang asked.
&34;Mushroom pigeon soup, grandma, mom, sister, Duoduo all like it! &34;
&34;A few slices of shiitake mushrooms, a few slices for each of the four of us, only eating meat, no vegetables! &34;
&34;Hey hey!&34;
&34;Dad, I want to eat tofu!&34;
&34;It's fine if I'm the same as my sister! &34;Yangyang also focuses on eating meat.
"Yo, Yangyang and Duoduo both like to eat meat. That's great. Let daddy cook it and you guys eat it. Duoduo is fat and very cute!"
"Thank you, Grandpa Wei!" It makes Duoduo's mouth sweet.
"I'll go heat up the food while you guys talk."
Cao Dongfang didn’t heat up too many dishes, just eight dishes and one soup. There were all the dishes that everyone liked, and that was enough.
Life is good but we can’t waste it. Mr. Wei was in the General’s Building and he had too much leftovers but couldn’t give them to others.
The nanny is not at home, so the old couple have to eat alone. It’s New Year’s Day, and it’s not good to have leftovers every day.
It's almost done.
.......
"Damn! This medicine from the East is really good, Old Pan. You look 34 years younger now. You look like you're ."
When Cao Dongfang brought the dishes out of the kitchen, he heard Old Wei say "Auntie Wei" in surprise.
After Cao Dongfang gets married, he doesn’t have to call him Grandpa Wei. It’s okay to call him that when he is young, but it’s correct to call him Uncle Wei when he grows up.
Cao Dongfang's father, Cao Dashan, is still alive. He is only 7 years younger than Wei Lao and they are of the same generation.
When Cao Dongfang met Mr. Wei in 54, he was only 16 years old and called him grandpa because he was underage.
Cao Dongfang grew up and no longer called him grandpa! Especially after getting married, his father-in-law and Wei Lao were brothers.
Now Mr. Wei also thinks that Cao Dongfang is his nephew, not his grandson.
Cao Dongfang also calls the old children "brother" and "sister", not "uncle" or "aunt".
"It's time to eat, bring the dishes!" Cao Dongfang used his true Qi to bring out all the food and divided it into two layers.
"Dongfang, you are wasting your martial arts skills by not using them in the right place!"
"Dongfang, this is to save time, but how can it not be the right place? Isn't it the right place to use it on others?" Aunt Wei started to criticize Mr. Wei again.
"Aunt Wei is younger and prettier now!"
"Thank you Dongfang this time. This medicine is hard to find, right?" Aunt Wei asked.
"It took me twenty years to find it. Mr. Wei, you said that I could sell this medicine to rich women abroad for hundreds of millions!"
"You don't need money, why sell it?"
"The army burns money. The country is now focusing on the economy and doesn't have much money to give to the army. In the 34s, the army will need to replace its equipment, which will require a lot of small money."
I have another set of medicinal materials, but they are less effective. I will ask around overseas later. I think some of them can be smuggled in! "Cao Dongfang is talking nonsense.
"You mean to smuggle some important items? That should be possible. Women can't stop it. They care too much about their appearance!" Mr. Wei thought it was a good idea.
"That's what I mean. What's the use of Eagle Sauce Coin? Supplies are more important!"
&34;You can give it a try!&34;
