0838 Eighteen million taels

Jiegege was very happy, accompanied by the queen mother of the two palaces, whispering quietly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, President Meng is not indifferent to the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, but just normalizes them and marginalizes them, this way of treatment makes the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother feel comfortable, at least feel safe, although, Cixi has a deep sense of loss in her heart, she is no longer the core of China. But at least it can show that President Meng is willing to let them attend public places, and has no intention of killing them.

This point, for stabilizing the people's hearts, will play a role in nothing, and when tomorrow the photo of President Meng and the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces in the same frame appears in the Huacui Evening News, it will greatly stabilize the hearts of the people in the area ruled by the Qing court, and it is not a small blow to the local forces that are ready to move and want to secede, and it can also have a deterrent effect on the landlord class in the area ruled by China!

No matter how peaceful President Meng's policy is, it is also an out-and-out capitalist line, and its impact on the landlord class is still very bad, except for a very small number of advanced landlords, the vast majority of the landlord class still rejects the Chinese government and President Meng, even in the areas ruled by China.

When a new government comes to power, it will never be a situation where everyone raises their arms and shouts, life and death go hand in hand, and this requires one process after another.

President Meng doesn't plan to launch a big movement, President Meng is slowly changing the course of history, he is very young, he has time and patience.

Although the power of the movement is great, it can greatly gain die-hard supporters, but it is also easy to cause huge changes in society, this kind of change, it is impossible to think of the dead, President Meng does not want to see a large-scale situation of killing and injuring Chinese, which is also reflected in President Meng's gentle military strategy.

"Okay, please come with me to see, the first auction item of our fundraising banquet for the Yellow River disaster relief and dam construction, all the funds raised today will be used for the Yellow River disaster relief and dam construction project. This is a pair of four treasures of the study room used by President Meng in junior high school, with a reserve price of 100,000 yuan! ”

One dollar of Hua Yuan, equivalent to one or two silver of the official silver of the Qing Dynasty, a pair of four treasures of the study, which came up is 100,000 yuan, which scared everyone, but it also immediately calmed down this surprised mood.

"Can you really do it, the four treasures of the study room that he Xuan Yuemeng used actually dared to ask for 100,000 taels!?" Empress Dowager Ci'an was very unhappy.

Cixi didn't have any expression, her eyes just lit up.

Jie Gege covered his mouth and smiled lightly, "This is what I have arranged, the Queen Mother is blaming me, today, the president doesn't know anything about the auction." ”

President Meng was actually very surprised, the preparation for this party, Liu Yuqing and Jie Gege were two people, he didn't expect to set such a high price, although he knew that there was childcare, don't worry about no one buying, but still can't help but worry.

Everything is set by Jiege, but the price is set by Liu Yuqing, at this point, Liu Yuqing shows her shrewdness as the daughter of a businessman.

"The president has the heart of the victims of the disaster in Henan, and the show of the four treasures of this study also has a very high historical significance and collection value, well, the auction begins, please bid, raise your hand once, and increase the price by 10,000 yuan." The master of ceremonies said in a loud voice.

"One hundred thousand!"

"One hundred and twenty thousand!"

"One hundred and thirty thousand!"

"140,000!"

"One hundred and fifty thousand!"

Meng President Khan, a pair of four treasures of the study, it seems that this is the rhythm of the rush at the beginning?

Yes, this is a rush, no matter what else is behind it, today is not to buy things, but to buy the face of President Meng, whether it is in the business world or in politics, whoever has the face of President Meng, the road of this life will be much better.

"Five hundred thousand taels! I bid 500,000 taels of official silver! Hu Xueyan stood up and said.

This is the result of the discussion between Hu Xueyan and Zuo Zongtang, Chu Jun is short of money, but what he lacks is big money, today the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces can attend public events with President Meng, which shows that the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces has accepted President Meng's conditions! At this time, if you don't show friendship to President Moe, you're really blind.

Hu Xueyan is also short of money, and naturally there is no shortage of this kind of small money, and in the future, Chu Jun's food and clothing will have to be bought from Huaguo, and he can't get around.

Zuo Zongtang looked at Hu Xueyan in a daze, and then looked at the back of the queen mother of the two palaces, and was silent.

Today's matter, Hu Xueyan discussed with Zuo Zongtang in advance, Zuo Zongtang actually acquiesced to Hu Xueyan's current practice of currying favor with Xuan Yuemeng, on the one hand, he was a little unwilling, Zuo Zongtang was not as open-minded as Li Hongzhang, and he couldn't wipe off his face, Zuo Zongtang's immediate impression still couldn't forget that Xuan Yuemeng was just a child more than a year old.

Zuo Zongtang saw Xuan Yuemeng very early, when he first met President Meng in Xuanzonglu's house in Tianjin's Dashu Hutong, President Meng is indeed a one-year-old child, not even a year old, and he is still in the stage of hiring Timothy Li to cheat money.

On the second aspect, Zuo Zongtang also felt that currying favor with Xuan Yuemeng like now was already disloyal to the Qing Dynasty, but if this was not the case, the Chu army would be finished soon, not for the survival of the Chu army, Zuo Zongtang was unwilling to take this step.

"Six hundred thousand taels!" This time the bidder is Yixuan, Yixuan is also a gambler's mentality, but it is not to compete with Zuo Zongtang for anything, Yixuan's business is given to him by President Meng, President Meng does not prohibit gambling, gambling is allowed in Huaguo, but the area must be specified, and the license must be obtained. Half of it is showmanship, half of it is fun. Otherwise, with such a stingy and greedy personality, how could he give up 600,000 taels?

After shouting the price, Yixuan looked at Hu Xueyan and Zuo Zongtang, and nodded to the two of them, meaning that he had conceded, and he didn't think that the two would continue to fight with him in the end.

The king of Yixuan County has already been released, and he is now in a state of semi-surrender to Huaguo.

The crowd was in an uproar.

This time, even Cixi frowned, Yixuan was the person she helped up with one hand, although Xuan Yuemeng secretly spent money, when Yixuan was on the throne, but Yixuan was able to live in the temple in the end, or because he climbed the big tree of Cixi and hugged the arm of Cixi's eldest brother, Yixuan is doing this now, a little too flattering.

"This man!" Empress Dowager Ci'an couldn't help but say indignantly.

Cixi didn't answer, she regretted helping Yixuan up, but now if she wants to drive Yixuan out of the power center of the Qing court, she is already powerless, because Yixuan already has the aura of President Meng's brother-in-law.

Hu Xueyan was angry, "800,000 taels!" ”

The crowd was in an uproar again.

Empress Dowager Ci'an couldn't help but say angrily: "Cheng Tian shouts that he has no money, isn't he Hu Xueyan Zuo Zongtang's money bag?" Isn't this rich ruthless? When the Chinese army entered the customs and let the Chu army enter the king of Jingqin, why didn't they have this courage? ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi sighed and said, "Sister, don't say it, what's the use of talking about this now?" This is called the direction of the wind, and the direction of the wind is not on our side. ”

When the Empress Dowager Ci'an heard this, her eyes turned red again, and she couldn't hold back her tears, and Jiegege didn't know how to comfort her.

In the end, Hu Xueyan's 800,000 taels won the first place.

Yi Liang bought a pair of earrings from President Meng's mother in the second round, and also spent 600,000 taels! These 600,000 taels were originally planned to be sold today, and the next lot was raised so high by two people, at least 200,000 taels could be won.

Fifty auction items raised a total of more than 18 million taels of silver.

"Hmph, is there no money in the Great Qing Kingdom?" Empress Dowager Ci'an couldn't help but say indignantly.

The Empress Dowager Cixi was also speechless, she didn't expect that she could collect money like this, half an hour's effort, more than 18 million taels of silver were purely credited to the account, even if she printed money, she couldn't print it so quickly.

President Meng stood up and said with a smile, "Thank you for your enthusiastic support and participation, the Chinese government will not break its promise, all this money will be used for the Yellow River disaster relief and damming, although this money for the Yellow River construction project, not even one-tenth, but I solemnly promise today that within four years, the embankment will be built!" The Yellow River and the Yangtze River will never be a large-scale flood! ”

Everyone stood up and applauded, this is a promise that no emperor would dare to make in history, there are thousands of pairs of eyes, thousands of pairs of ears, President Meng said, it must be done! (To be continued.) )
