34 Just kicked me like this? Do you still have humanity!

In April 1853, after a long night chat with two brothers from the Heaven and Earth Association from Foshan, Zhu Qingzheng, who had not slept for a night, narrowed his tired eyes and hurried to see Zhao Kuo under the dazzling sunshine.

But he was stopped outside the door, and the envoy of the Heavenly King had arrived and brought the highest order of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Zhao Kuo looked at the thick stack of Heavenly King's Edicts and jumped while looking at his cheeks.

He risked his life to go to Shanghai from the city of Nanjing, and then passed through the storm of wind and waves on the sea, and then came to Huizhou's special envoy. Seeing the marquis' face becoming more and more ugly, he was a little surprised and said, "The King of Heaven said that the Qing demons have not been destroyed, and the men and women's camps will continue. Guangzhou has not yet been cut off. I see that the marquis' city of Huizhou is still constantly commercial and traveling. What if the marquis' spies in Huizhou are mixed up?"

Zhao Kuo raised his head and glanced at him, and slowly said, "The Guangzhou Qing Yao has come out twice, and was driven back by He Liu in Dongguan. You don't have to worry too much. This Heavenly King Zhao is really... he really..."

His tone was plain, but his face turned into a pig's liver. Zhao Kuo, who was used to being a king in Guangdong and brought back the habit of a gang boss, swallowed the five words "fuck ahead".

Because before Wuchang, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had never occupied similar megacities, which mentioned above was the urban management system that was implemented in Wuchang, matured on the way to attack Nanjing and implemented in later generations.

This order requires that in the big city, the spirit of Wuchang should be maintained and everyone should be divided into men's camps and women's camps. In these camps, people should be divided into each "house" according to their gender and occupation according to their profession. There are 25 people in one hall, all of which are professionals, including brickwork halls, carpenter halls, decoration halls, tailor halls, shoe craftsmen's halls, and even museums designed for people who specialize in making milk, bread, soy sauce, and tofu!

Of course, medical halls, fire halls and even funeral halls are indispensable.

The women were all concentrated in the women's hall, and of course there were 25 people in one unit.

And all these people are not rewarded! All income is earned from Saint Curry in kind! Work without money is earned!

In the towns passed by and captured by the Taiping Army, women and children should be sent to the capital, and the Holy Library provides them with necessities of life.

In order to ensure defense security, market trade and commerce are strictly prohibited in the city!

A few stall trades are only allowed in a small area around the city gate.

For this kind of business, the army should conduct strict inspections, and each stall must be sold according to gender!

Some things are only allowed to sell to male customers, while some things are only allowed to female customers!

Foreigners who lived in Tianjing, the capital of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in history, recorded that their own living standards were extremely poor, they drank dirty water and had to clean the house by themselves, because the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom did not allow people like nannies who were charged on time to work in the city.

"Get physical rewards? Barter with goods? Isn't this the communism in the legendary later generations?" Zhao Kuo glanced at the envoy below and cursed in his heart: "This fucking Qing serfism has not been cut off yet! Do you want to jump to communism?! The material is extremely rich? Distribute it on demand? Even if I am an idiot, I want to dare to do this. The foreign spies in the city can immediately kill the foreigners! You must know that Guangzhou is a trading port, and foreigners can just find an excuse to send troops to beat me into the sea."

He was angry and funny, but he would not offend the Heavenly King. Now he had no capital. He coughed twice and smiled at the special envoy: "The Heavenly King is really wise! My subordinates admire him very much. But the situation in Guangdong is slightly different. First, I haven't taken Guangzhou yet, and Huizhou is just a temporary residence. I will make arrangements when I take the provincial capital. Second, my Nanxing Army was not many at the beginning, and only 3,000 people could fight. Now, most of my tens of thousands of people are local villagers or brothers from the Tiandihui Society, and most of the latter rely on sales and shipping to make money. If I urgently implement this strategy, I am afraid I can't afford them."

"You have no food in Saint Curry?" The envoy was puzzled and asked again: "In the face of the pressure of the heavenly soldiers, the leisurely Luo Xiaoquan shouted: "It's very dangerous! Don't talk about the clear demons, your American minister will hang you..."

"What's so scary about death? My life has long been in the hands of the Lord." Luo Xiaoquan smiled foolishly like a swearing opium. Just think about it, which one is more effective, and one is more famous in a small army, or a person who will be an emperor immediately (guessed by foreign newspapers). Maybe it's a good name to be a history!

It’s better to be a chicken head than a cow’s queen!

Compared with Hong Xiuquan, Zhao Kuo is nothing more than a chicken head. Old Hong is a bull head! Zhao Kuo is just a chicken head!

Luo Xiaoquan immediately made a decision. He grabbed Zhao Kuo's arm and said, "Where is the messenger? I want to set off immediately! Is it OK tomorrow? Let's go to Hong Kong and take a boat to Shanghai immediately!"

"Your mother!" Zhao Kuo was about to cry. Now there is only Luo Xiaoquan, a foreign priest in the army. The other foreign priests have not been found yet, and they are all waiting and watching. Now the effect of Luo Xiaoquan's advertisement has not yet been released, so people are suing you for infringement?!

"Pastor Luo, listen to me!" Zhao Kuo pressed Luo Xiaoquan, who was jumping around, and pressed him on the stool, and said, "Do you remember what I asked you for advice? Is the Heavenly King Jesus' brother? Is the second time I came to earth?"

Zhao Kuo didn't care if he couldn't suppress Luo Xiaoquan, and this kid sold him in front of Hong Xiuquan. He was so anxious that he could see the truth and directly stabbed the God-worshiping weakness.

"Of course it's impossible! But Marquis, you are such an outstanding person?" Luo Xiaoquan laughed: "With your level of civilization, you are simply an American. I don't believe that a general like you would be a general who is a god as you said."

Shoot yourself in the foot!

Zhao Kuo was stunned for a moment, let go of his hand, covered his face and sat on the chair next to him.

"Zhao, I know you can't bear to leave me." Luo Xiaoquan comforted him instead. He patted the painful boy on the shoulder and said, "I can't bear to leave you either. But in the distant Tianjing, there are so many people waiting for me to save him, and I can't leave them alone."

"Your mother!" Zhao Kuo grinded his teeth, wishing he could jump up and shoot the stupid donkey in the head.

Finally, Zhao Kuo put down his hand and he said his true thoughts to Luo Xiaoquan: "Pastor Luo, if you leave immediately, then I would like to accompany me to meet with the presidents of the British, French, American Chamber of Commerce and the consuls? Wait a few more months."

"I can't wait for a moment. And I don't understand business and diplomacy, so I'm afraid I can't help you!" Luo Xiaoquan hugged Hong Xiuquan's thigh and kicked Zhao Kuo away resolutely.

Zhao Kuo stared at the American man and cried bitterly: "Do you still have humanity?" After a long time, he said: "Are you rich enough? I'll ask someone to help you clean up your greetings."

Actually, he wanted to delay time, but Luo Xiaoquan laughed and said, "Zhao, thank you! There is nothing to clean up at all! You gave me a lot of money. Don't say that I went to Nanjing, I have lived in Shanghai for ten years."

"Why am I so mean!" Zhao Kuo looked down at his hand and wailed again: "If it weren't for pleasing him, he would have given a lot of money to make so-called funds, which would have made this poorer than wings, otherwise I could let him release pigeons?"

"Then the messenger is in your hall, right? I'm going to see him now? Thank God!" Luo Xiaoquan jumped up and ran into the hall by himself. He was the Heavenly King Teacher in the army, and no one dared to care about him. This was all picked up by Zhao Kuo.

Looking at his flying back, Zhao Kuo gritted his teeth: What is a destined stupid donkey? That's it! Every time he was full of joy and couldn't stop jumping into the pit!

"Who knows if you, a fool, can come back alive from those madmen? Even if you escape back, if I have not been killed by the great powers and Ye Mingchen, I wouldn't let you get out of here, and I will play the ball for you!"

At this moment, Zhu Qingzheng's order to see was passed. As soon as he entered the side room, Zhu Qingzheng said, "Mr. Marquis, Foshan has changed."

"What's going on?" Zhao Kuo felt heartbroken when he heard this, and he wondered if it was a bad day today. If there was a change in Chen Kai in Foshan, the 50,000 or 60,000 red soldiers might have flew away, and he would not be able to realize his strategic intention of Dongguan and Foshan to attack Guangzhou in both directions.

"Yesterday, the brothers from Foshan came, mainly Guan Ju, and He Bo's group of people had an explanation."

"Is it the church that claims to be "thousands of ships in the sea can surround the provincial capital"?" Zhao Kuo immediately remembered these two people. These two people were known as the navy of the Red Army in history. Of course, in ancient times, wars were all boasted. It is considered very reliable data if thousands of ships in the sea can have hundreds of ships.

"That's right." Zhu Qingzheng swallowed and said, "They originally had a big business for opium smuggling. Now we are searching for opium in Shao, Fo and Hui. They are afraid that after we strictly prohibit opium, they will cut off their life."

"Opium, opium." Zhao Kuo sighed and said, "Is this the most powerful thing on this continent?"

"There are some bad signs: many brothers from the Tiandihui Association said that they only wanted to expel the Tartars, but did not want to join the foreign religion; in addition, because we were conducting a clearing township in northern Guangdong, many landlords in southern Guangdong did not dare to impose excessive taxes anymore, for fear of the people causing trouble, they took the initiative to reduce their rents. Moreover, there are many people who are originally the Tiandihui Association, who are hesitating to invest in us or the clearing demons..."

As he was talking, Luo Xiaoquan ran back and told Zhao Kuo two news that he didn't want to hear even more: "I know where the son and nephew of the Western King Feng Yunshan are. They are sent to the countryside of Fogang, but they are children, only 9 and 11 years old. Can you help me take them back? There is also the messenger of the Heavenly King who wants to take Hong Renyu away. Although I don't know where he is in Hong Kong? But he is a member of the Hanhui, and I know who can find him."

In history, Luo Xiaoquan went to Nanjing to drag Feng Yunshan's two children. When he rebelled, in fact, the most important missionary was Feng Yunshan. Often, Hong Xiuquan returned home. He insisted on preaching in the mountains. The main forces of the mine disciples such as Yang Xiuqing and Xiao Chaogui were all developed by him. During the rebellion, Hong Xiuquan evacuated his relatives to Guangdong early, while Feng Yunshan was relatively unlucky. Many people in the family were killed by Qing soldiers. These two nephews were his remains. As for the little fat man, Hong Renyu, he first ran to Hong Kong. Like Luo Xiaoquan, he had no money. After going to Shanghai, he could not pass the Qing army blockade. He repeatedly wanted to go to Nanjing but failed. Later, his mother died and mourned for several years. It took him a long time to meet his cousin in Nanjing.

But now with Zhao Kuo's army, I will definitely have all the money if I don't say anything else.
