Chapter 18: The New Diplomat
On August 27, it was 18 days before the landing time of the Chinese Renaissance Party and its own army, the Chinese Defense Army, and Tang Shaoyi also lived here for half a month.
Now, it's about time for him to make up his mind.
In the past few days, the busy Tang Yunyang and Gu Weijun didn't have time to talk to him much, but they gave him two jeeps with machine guns, plus a group of five-person guards, and asked his daughter Tang Baoyue to accompany him to visit freely.
During this half a month's work, he not only visited Laizhou City and had a deep conversation with Cai Yi, but he also visited Weihai and Yantai, and saw the largest warship in the world - the 34,000-ton "Yue Fei" aircraft carrier.
At this time, the former Japanese Kongo-class battlecruiser had completed the repair of the propulsion system and joined the battle sequence of the aircraft carrier battle group, and was named "Yantai", and the captain was Cheng Biguang, who brought ten warships.
As the first task force of the "Chinese National Defense Forces" Navy, it has reached 1 large attack aircraft carrier, 2 improvised aircraft carriers, 8 cruisers and 4 destroyers, as well as another 7 gunboats brought by Cheng Guangbi.
The remaining three old gunboats, including the three Japanese ironclads, were dismantled with all their weapons. They will be converted into cargo ships and auctioned off to the growing number of Nanyang merchants in Qingdao, as well as elsewhere.

In a short period of time, Qingdao's newly established large airport has begun to take shape, more than 300 aircraft of the army air force have been deployed, and more aircraft are being assembled by mechanics all night.
According to Tang Baoyue's briefing, the airfield's aircraft will reach the first group of the "Army Aviation Eagle" air force, which will include 300 fighters, 200 attack planes, and a total of 500 aircraft.
As far as they know, these planes have to attack the ports of Lushun and Dalian on the other side almost every day. In addition, what made them fall in love with the strength of the Chinese National Defense Force was that in just two round-trips from Truk, airships and "planes" had already transported back more than 10,000 tons of various materials, which was why he mistook those large "sea hurricanes" for airplanes.
These changes in the armed forces are really nothing compared to the construction of civilian facilities. In just 18 days, they saw so many different things.
Due to the more materials and skilled workers, there are students from various majors trained by the Chinese Baath Party in Europe, and there are also a large number of talents from various fields in Europe and the United States who have served in the Iron Wing Company. As soon as they arrived, the engineers plunged into the pre-planned projects, and the scholars naturally devoted themselves to the cause of Qingdao Science City.
The wind turbines, which had been produced in Batavia in advance, stood in patches in the coastal areas controlled by the Chinese National Defense Forces, and they formed a beautiful landscape on the edge of the coast.
As the driving force, their construction is given top priority. When they began to be put into the power system that Qingdao already has, more complete sets of equipment were installed and put into operation. At least now the bullets are no longer being transported from Batavia, as a complete line for the production of munitions, they arrived with the first fleet.
Another thing that is of most interest to the citizens of Qingdao is that the second large attack aircraft carrier "Li Jing" is ready to start construction in Qingdao. Qingdao citizens, who are no strangers to shipbuilding, were surprised by what kind of ship Qingdao was going to build here when they saw that the preparations had reached such a scale!
With the increasing abundance of energy, more enterprises and institutions are in the process of opening.
The most striking thing is the opening of the Green Rose Hospital, and as for the medical staff, it is needless to ask the international students who have "interned" with the American poor in Boston, USA. Needless to say, the construction of a wide variety of manufacturing enterprises and businesses is due to the influx of urban population into a large number of newly opened enterprises and institutions, and the population of nearby rural areas, especially agricultural wage laborers, is rapidly pouring into the cities to fill the labor vacancies. The shortage of agricultural population is expected to be solved by the walk-behind tractor factory under construction.
Nowadays, due to the large increase in the population of Qingdao, the consumption of various resources is very rapid, especially after the factories that have been shipped in have begun to recruit a large number of workers, and the consumption has become even more intense.
Fortunately, the Japanese originally used the Qingdao neighborhood as their core base in China, and various warehouses nearby stored food or construction resources. Therefore, both food and energy have not become a bottleneck in Qingdao's construction and development for the time being, and a desalination plant using night electricity is being installed.
Moreover, from the direction of Shanghai, the grain, materials and other resources obtained by Antai Shilai in the trading market began to arrive one after another. As a result of the construction here, merchants from other coastal areas have also sent more supplies.
Although everything is still under construction, Qingdao, Weihai and Yantai, the three cities that have just been taken over by the Japanese, all highlight an unprecedented vitality.
In particular, the Qingdao scientific research center was built very quickly, but despite this, there are still scholars who can't wait to carry out research with the funds in place.
Speaking of such a madman, Sikorski was one of them, and when he saw the small rotorcraft, especially those articulated rotors, he was more inspired, and then he had enough money to devote himself to the research of helicopters.
In addition to him, there is another one who is Vladimir. Zorikin, whose research program on "photoelectric camera tubes" also received support from a science fund under Cai Yuanpei's leadership.
Now, these madmen, who surprised Tang Shaoyi, ate and lived in tents near their test subjects. It seems that apart from their research, they don't intend to talk to anyone else, and they don't intend to pay attention to anyone who is curious about their behavior.
During this time, he also saw the American lads in the air team, as well as Jane. Merlin. Occasionally, Gu Weijun had a little free time to tell him more about the China Renaissance Party.
All this caused huge fluctuations in Tang Shaoyi's mind, recalling that since he returned to China from the United States, he has been committed to China's diplomatic career. However, as a diplomat of a weak country, he was humiliated in a way that no one else could match.
But today, what he saw gave him more hope, especially when Tang Yunyang wanted him to go to Beiliang and contact the British minister in China about the British prisoners of war, he heard a stronger declaration of sovereignty.
That night, Gu Weijun surprisingly had free time all night, and informed his father-in-law, who had been out all day to investigate, that Tang Yunyang's family of three would come to the house for dinner when night came.
"What, is the time up?"
Hearing his son-in-law's reminder, Tang Shaoyi lost his mind for a moment, in the process of investigation in the past few days, his spirit was immersed in some inexplicable joy all day long, but when he was asked to make a formal statement, he couldn't help but think about it.
"Let's watch the first release together, please support genuine reading, and support the author's creation" Don't laugh and give birth to a group: 35761481; Mailbox:.
Hearing his father-in-law's question, Gu Weijun's heart sank, and he mistakenly thought that Tang Shaoyi did not agree with everything that appeared in Qingdao now. After all, this is a completely new revolution, a revolutionary way of promoting science and economics with all its might under the protection of the "Chinese National Defense Forces". In his heart, I'm afraid that this way, his father-in-law, who has fought for the rights of China for half his life, can't understand it.
"Father-in-law, you know, all the construction here in Shandong is just the beginning, although because there are many business groups and too many construction projects, so it is ......"
Tang Shaoyi raised his palm.
"No, I just ...... You know...... Wei Jun, there's one thing I haven't seen, do you know what it is? β
Gu Weijun was a little confused, and thought about what his wife told him about their two-day itinerary, and there should be no shortage in all aspects, but now what else has he not seen?
"What, Wei Jun, have you forgotten? That's why I want you to go to France......"
"Oh, I see, father-in-law, sit down for a while, I'll bring it to you!"
Gu Weijun suddenly realized, and hurriedly glanced at his wife on the side, Tang Baoyue went to the bookshelf at home and took out a stack of exquisitely bound "books".
On the black background is a piece of gilded handwriting, but the bottom of the "Declaration of the Rights of the Chinese Citizens" is not a Western scale, behind a large golden scale, hanging is a bright red heart-shaped pattern.
"Father-in-law, I didn't see this because our judge and lawyer are still sitting on a boat from Batavia to here, after all, it will take a while for this place to break away from military control, and the biggest possibility is that it will be after the inevitable big war, so that Shandong can begin to enter the control of the law."
Just as Tang Shaoyi was about to open this written code to study it carefully, the door of the Gu family was pushed open, and Tang Yunyang and his wife came to Gu Weijun's house.
In desperation, Tang Shaoyi had no choice but to put these codes aside and stepped forward to quarrel with Tang Yunyang. In the dining room at home, a French meal suitable for chatting has naturally been prepared, and today, although Tang Shaoyi has not indicated that he intends to join the career, Tang Yunyang has already given him a task.
"Mr. Tang, you know that we fought with the British in this battle, and we also captured all their garrisons, I believe you have also seen in the past few days, we did not ask the British army to go to hard labor, but we need a promise, a promise from the British side!"
