Years do not accommodate mortals, death is the ultimate destination!

In the late winter of 1860, the pillar of the Howlett family, Mr. Howlett Sr., passed away only one day after his son, John Howlett.

Lin Feng was dressed in black, with white lilies pinned to his chest, holding a bouquet of yellow and white chrysanthemums in his hand, and accompanied his righteous son James to the funeral of old Howlett.

For the Lin family, who had already mastered greenhouse technology, the flowers out of season were not surprising, and the flowers in the hands of the guests were also provided by the Lin family.

“Mr. Howlitt is called by the Lord and is our beloved, upright, and loyal friend!”

“His life was magnificent, and he had the greatest kindness to his family and friends, and to everyone who loved him. The passing of Mr. Howlitt has caused us to lose a good friend, a good elder, a good companion, and we cannot help but feel a little sad in our hearts. ”

“But we are convinced that we will meet in heaven when we pass the path he has walked.” He will rest in the kingdom of God of the Lord, at this time…”

Father Gerard solemnly and affectionately narrated the eulogy, and the crows on the mountain bushes chirped from time to time, which set off the atmosphere of even more mourn.

Elizabeth Haulit, who had not appeared for a long time, turned pale, leaning weakly in the arms of the maid, and the black and white gauze skirt on her body fluttered in the wind.

James bit his lip tightly, trying to endure the tears that were about to burst out of his eyes.

The grandfather who protected him under his wing since he was a child died, his nominal father and biological father are not alive, and his biological mother Elizabeth’s health does not seem to be good today, maybe how long it will be before he will send away his last blood relatives.

Under the ensuing blows, James tried his best to be strong, and the servants and guards of Howlett Manor were all moved, lamenting that there were successors to the old Mr. Howlett.

After the long eulogy and ceremony, James was the first to walk to the tomb where the coffin was placed, gently put down a bunch of white chrysanthemums, and finally glanced at the mournful face of old Horlett.

Lin Feng silently sent a yellow and white bouquet after him, and in the early days of the Lin family, this old man helped a lot.

After leaving customs, he came to Howlett Manor to persuade the old man to accept his own cure, and he would never appear again in seclusion, but the old Mr. Howlett refused.

Tough and arrogant all his life, when he was dying, let him live for a few years in hiding, and the old Mr. Haulitt would rather die than become a shrunken turtle.

People stepped forward in turn, offering flowers in their hands and saying their final goodbyes.

After everyone left, James picked up the shovel, slowly walked to the tomb, and filled the tomb with his own hands.

“Righteous father, I want to stay in the Haulit Manor, I can’t go back with you, the Haulit family can’t be leaderless!”

“But if you need me, no matter when you give an order, I am willing to charge for you, even if I lose my life, I will complete the mission.”

The death of his relatives has made James grow up a lot.

He looked at the guards and servants around him and deeply understood that from now on, the fate of these people would be entrusted to him.

The Howlett family cannot be severed, and the spirit of the old Mr. Howlett will be inherited by him, just as the torch will be passed on.

Lin Feng patted his broad shoulders and said with a light sigh.

“I understand! This is your mission and responsibility, and the Righteous Father will not stop you, but will be proud and proud of you! ”

“Don’t forget when things are difficult, the Lin family is your eternal backing, and you are also my child!”

The parting between men is not too sad.

Rose O’Hara looked at James’s lonely figure, took a few quick steps and took his hand and whispered.

“James, don’t be like this, you and me and everyone!”

James squeezed her little hand and barely smiled.

Lin Feng’s mocking gaze made the two cheeks redden, but their hands were held tighter.

“It seems that you kid doesn’t need me to comfort you, let it go, everything has a righteous father who believes that no one will provoke you without long eyes!”

“The Lin family has a lot of affairs, so I won’t stay here to get in the way!” When you and Rose get married, remember to inform your righteous father, and I will give a big gift! ”

Patting James’s shoulder again, Lin Feng turned on his horse, whipped the horse hard, and galloped towards the Lin Manor, and the Shenwu guards behind him followed, like a long dragon rising up the sky with smoke.

……

The housekeeper Lin Shuhao earnestly asked him to burn the clothes attending the funeral, so as not to bring the deceased’s obscure and sick qi home, which affected the health of the ladies and young ladies.

Lin Feng didn’t believe this, but there was no need to do some things if he didn’t believe it, so he had to change his clothes from Zhiruliu before entering the study of the main building and starting to deal with family affairs.

Since taking control of Ghana, the power of the Lin family has once again expanded several times, and most of the affairs that need to be decided by him personally are closely related to government affairs and affect all aspects of the Dominion.

For example, the steel plant applied for a 10-fold expansion of production to meet the construction needs of four horizontal and three vertical railway construction in Ghana’s major cities; The Fox Hunting Legion applied to recruit new recruits to fill the gap because most of the soldiers were converted into the Wehrmacht; Shipyards asked to recruit more engineers and scientists, build designed aircraft carriers, and more.

Everything has a far-reaching impact, involving many government departments and family industries, which can be described as affecting the whole body, and can only be decided by him.

After lunch, the housekeeper Lin Shuhao sent a letter that Blue Bird sent back to Ghana from Meilijian’s stronghold, which elaborated on Meijian’s recent situation.

Misiben, who has lived in fear every day in the past few years, has experienced no less than 10 assassinations and assassinations, and if he were not surrounded by the guards sent by the Lin family, he would have died under the black gunmen sent by the slave owners.

The slave uprising in the slave states last October caused a great storm, and John Brown’s name often appeared in the curses of beautiful slave owners, and distracted the anger of southern slave owners over their men hanging on the U.S.-Canada border.

And after Alabham Lin* came to power in November this year, the southern slave owners were terrified, and they no longer had the energy to retaliate against the treacherous officials of Ghana, and did not dare to make a difference at this juncture.

Lin Feng carefully read it and thought for a moment, and seriously wrote a reply, asking the blue bird to continue to hibernate, and the subsequent layout tasks should be carried out more secretly.

After handing the reply letter to Lin Shuhao, he picked up the application of the Fox Hunting Legion, crossed out the previously approved recruitment quota of 10,000 soldiers, and changed it to 30,000 after thinking for a while.

“Shu Hao, after you send the reply letter, go find Lin Hao. Tell him to go to his homeland again, recruit a group of people with clean wealth, and after the expansion of the fox hunting legion, you can’t be all white and have your own talents! ”

Lin Shuhao nodded and hurried away with the reply.

He had long wanted to suggest that the master do this, and the military power must be in the hands of his own people to be safe!

It doesn’t matter when the Fox Hunting Legion has few people, but the expansion to 30,000 is still all white, and it is still equipped with the sophisticated weapons of the Lin Military Factory, in case someone buys the generals in the army to fight back, even if the Shenwuwei can suppress the rebellion in the end, it will disrupt the good momentum of the Lin family’s development.

The John Brown incident lit the fuse, and the rise of Abraham Lin* will sound the clarion call for war.

The prelude to the Civil War that swept through the country was about to open in front of Lin Feng’s eyes.

After many years of planning, I finally waited for the opportunity to show it, and the north and south sides of the game will usher in the third chess player outside the chess game, and no one knows how it will develop in the future.

For a while, the clouds of war, in the beautiful and strong land, shrouded everyone.
