When Wang Jitong was at the education meeting, Zhong Guanguan was taking Yu Zhimo to visit the factory. This Yu Zhimo is a native of Xiangxiang, Hunan, about forty years old, he is Mu Zhang, Zou and others came to visit, Wang Jitong and he briefly chatted with him and then let Zhong Guanguan follow up, Zhong Guanguan and he was familiar with the experience is really rich, as a soldier, as an official, the First Sino-Japanese War, Wuxu Change, the Self-Reliance Army have participated, and Tan Sitong, Tang Caichang are close friends, Tang Caichang fled to Tokyo after the defeat, where he knew Mr. Zhang Taiyan.
Since the start of construction last year, the infrastructure work has not been interrupted, and then the workload is too large, Yang Rui found another Yang Ruitai construction factory, this factory is the largest construction factory in Shanghai, the boss Yang Sisheng took over the factory construction and immediately sent additional manpower, so that the infrastructure of the chlor-alkali plant has not been delayed, but the chlor-alkali plant is a foreigner like cement and steel bars, and the monosodium glutamate factory was a bamboo shed because of the construction period, so there is such a building in the 6 line factory, which is really ugly.
Yu Zhimo was not impressed by the difference between these buildings, he was stunned by the scale of these two factories, in order to learn chemistry and textile technology in Tokyo, he also went to Osaka, Chiyoda and other factories to intern, he has seen many factories, but still has never seen such a modern factory, he stood on a pile of bricks and stones and looked down on the entire factory area, obsessively looked at the tall, thick black smoke chimneys of the power plant, and said: "Xianfeng, why do you say that we Chinese can't run such factories?" "Because of the need to conceal the facts and reduce trouble, the entire factory of the 6th line is hung in front of McNeill as a shield, and when it is introduced to the outside world, it is said that it is a foreigner's factory.
Zhong Guanguan is also satisfied to look at the factory below, this is really a miracle! And this miracle was born in his own hands, like a tree growing little by little in his own hands, there is nothing better in life. Resisting the urge to tell the truth, Zhong Guanguan breathed a sigh of relief and said lightly: "What foreigners can do, we can also do it, this factory was built last year, as long as we can raise enough money, we can also buy a machine, invite foreigners, and open one by ourselves." β
Yu Zhimo is not easy at all, he also bought back some ironwood looms from Japan to return to China, last year in Xiangtan to establish a small towel factory, is relatively successful, this year has moved to Tanzhou, this went to Japan to buy textile machines just back, just ran into this Soviet version of the case, then stayed in Shanghai. Although textile factories make money, starting a business is still very difficult, and the original accumulation is not so easy to complete. "Good luck, I think when I was in Japan, I had to pretend to be an intern to learn some skills, but now you are in charge of the whole factory, and you should gain a lot."
Zhong Guanguan suppressed the joy in his heart, and said with an answer prepared in advance: "I also rely on the support of my fellow villagers, the shareholder of this factory is Mr. Yu Qiaqing, the general manager of ABN AMRO, who is from Ningbo. Because the chemical factory he ran was related to our instrument hall, he came to us and asked us for help. Now, there are more and more factories here in Shanghai, how about Tanzhou? β
When it came to Tanzhou, Yu Zhimo shook his wry smile, "Tanzhou is just a province, how can it be compared with Shanghai." Don't talk about setting up a factory, it's hard to find someone who understands new learning. β
Zhong Guanguan let out an unhurried "oh" and said, "The factory wants to set up an office in Tanzhou, I don't know if the business is easy to do there?" β
Yu Zhimo was very enthusiastic, and said with a smile: "Brother, you want to go to Tanzhou, just have me." Although my brother's business is small, I still have a human face, and you can find me if you have anything in Tanzhou City. β
Zhong Guanguan was overjoyed and said to him: "Brother Jiting, then thank you." β
In order to insert people into the Zhu family, the result of the discussion between the two was to open up the situation in Tanzhou City first, and the products of the factory were also from the previous simple monosodium glutamate, plus caustic soda, soap, toothpaste, matches, and Yang Rui's cigarettes, these things have been made or will come out immediately. Although it is possible to sell from the previous channels, Yang Rui still decided to upgrade Fengtian, Tianjin, Hankou, and Guangzhou, the first step is to expand the sales offices of various provinces, of course, some inconvenient transportation within the 6 provinces are not set up, but the coastal and Yangtze River provinces are all in the plan, Tanzhou as the capital of Hunan Province is naturally also in the plan, just to cut into the Zhu family faster, in addition to Yu Zhimo, a person who has a face in Tanzhou, Zhong Guanguan also transferred the Shengshu movement in Tokyo back.
The time for the review was far away, and the Qing court was constantly negotiating with the legations, especially the British minister, the Shanghai consul, for the extradition of Zhang, Zou and others, but the British minister was not returning to China to report on his work, and the Shanghai consul was only playing with words, and if it was delayed again and again, the negotiations did not know when the results would be reached. On July 31, Yu Zhimo said goodbye to everyone and returned to Tanzhou after determining this situation. When saying goodbye, Zhong Guanguan patted Sheng Shudong's shoulder and asked him to come to the news after he settled down over there, Sheng Shudong's face was gloomy, and he bowed goodbye and got on the boat.
Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, the vitality of Zhang, Zou and others came. Just in the days when Zhang Shizhao, Zhang Ji, and a few students who had returned from studying in Japan founded the National Daily Daily, news began to appear in the newspapers that Shen Xin had been killed with a cane. This Shen Xin was originally a member of the self-reliant army Tang Caichang, who had been the commander of the right army, and later after the failure of the uprising, he fooled around and became a reporter, and in April this year, Russia not only did not withdraw its troops according to the previous agreement, but also put forward seven conditions, and the Qing court, which was accustomed to compromising with foreigners, agreed to sign a secret treaty with Russia in order to make it withdraw its troops. This matter was publicized by the straw bag relatives and nobles who were bragging everywhere in Beijing, and it reached Shen Xin's ears. Shen Xin then bribed the son of Wang Wenshao, the minister of the administrative department, and obtained the draft of the Sino-Russian secret treaty, and seeing that the Qing court not only agreed to the seven conditions put forward by Russia before, but also betrayed the sovereignty of Mongolia and Northeast China, and the secret agreement was related to the fate of China, he quickly sent the draft to the news of the West in Tianjin.
Soon, this secret treaty became known to the whole world as soon as it was reported, causing strong opposition from all walks of life, and the Sino-Russian secret treaty was finally completely bankrupt. Cixi was annoyed and angry, and after catching Shen Xin, she issued an order to be killed, but the sixth month of the lunar calendar was Guangxu's birthday, and the officials below kindly mentioned that it was not good to kill people in the holy longevity month, so Cixi changed it to a cane. The Criminal Department was afraid that ordinary wooden planks would not kill people, so they specially built a large wooden plank, but because they were not familiar with the method of killing with a cane, after four hours of fighting, although Shen Xin's bones were broken, the person was still not dead, and in the end he could only be strangled with a rope.
Zhong Guan threw the newspaper and slammed it on the table, "What kind of court is this!" What kind of court is this!! β¦β¦ Such a loss of power and humiliation of the country, such a loss of conscience......"
Wang Jitong, who was sitting opposite, didn't say anything, just patiently blew cold with hot tea in both hands, indifferent to Zhong Guanguan's palm. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said: "What's the use of being angry, 'I Daqing' has been like this since the establishment of the dynasty more than two hundred years ago, and there have been many such things in the past and many in the future. In this way, the court should turn against him as soon as possible, Cixi, that old witch, we must soak her in the pig cage if we catch her. Wang Jitong also hated it very much, and the more he said it, the more he gritted his teeth, but after a while, he adjusted it and said: "But now that this matter comes out, it should be able to save the lives of Uncle Mei and Wei Dan." β
Zhong Guan also regained his senses after being angry, and he continued Wang Jitong's words and said, "What is the connection between what you said about Shen Xin and the matter of Uncle Wei Dan? How can you save their lives? β
After all, Zhong Guanguan has been in the factory for a long time, and he is not as familiar with the operation of the newspaper as Wang Jitong, "Now that the pro-Russian stance of the Qing court has completely angered the British, didn't Lu Tee say that the British were unwilling to extradite the criminals, so now he can use this matter to hype up that the Qing court has no civilization at all and careless of human life." In this way, the American consul did not dare to say extradition again, and Uncle Mei and Wei Dan and a few of them would be safe. β
Zhong Guanguan knew that this was not his profession, and said hatefully: "Then do it immediately, so that the Manchu Tartars will completely lose the idea of extradition." β
Soon, the newspapers in Shanghai, Beijing and other places began to be full of news of Shen Xin's case, and all the newspapers agreed that as long as the concession agreed to extradite Zhang, Zou and others, then the death of these people would be more cruel than Shen Xin's. Subsequently, in order to avoid the embarrassing situation of the plaintiff and the judge being the same person, the Qing court and the concession public office set up an additional court to try Su Bao's case.
When Wang Jitong was busy racking his brains to save people, the Lorenzo Marques Military Academy had already opened, and the opening ceremony on July 7 was very German--in order to commemorate Yang Rui, the ceremony was specially put on this day--simple and solemn, and it is estimated that it was in accordance with the German . Fan Lai of the military academy made it, and the speeches of the leaders were very brief. When Yang Rui, who is the principal of the military academy, spoke, he looked at the small red phalanx that worked hard to stand neatly below, and he was very emotional, he finally took the first step, although it was very naΓ―ve but full of hope.
It is an impossible task to train a qualified non-commissioned officer in eight months, and if you want to graduate, you can only complete it in the war, as Yang Rui said. Because it involves the translation of class materials, in the first month, in addition to German, I don't take military theory classes, and only do some of the most basic queue training and physical training, which is basically the same as university military training, Yang Rui also participates as a student, and is equipped with a reasonable meal for students - when Yang Rui was bored in college, Yang Rui went to take a catering management certification exam, which was a good test in food and nutrition, and what he thought was useless was actually used here.
There is no shortage of oil and meat, Lorenzo Marques was originally rich in cashew nuts, and there are a lot of cattle and horses in the manor, and there are only potatoes and onions in the vegetable manor, but Yang Rui brought a lot of vegetable seeds when he came, which has been planted, but the chef Lao Liu does not understand the abnormal season here, according to his words, what to plant at home is according to the solar terms, it seems that there is no solar term here, and it depends on God if you can't plant it. And the most fucked up part is that there is no rice, only cassava, and the locals like to eat a kind of cassava cake that Christian calls an African husband - in fact, it is a boiled cassava sticky sauce, which everyone eats before and feels like vomiting when they hear the word "husband". In the end, the kitchen had no choice but to directly make cassava flour with the soil method, and then mix some flour or bake or boil it to make cakes and steamed buns, so that it could be eaten.
The first week of training was very bad because of various reasons such as diet and climate, but the queue was fine, after all, they had read books, and there were many people who had also trained in the anti-Russian volunteer team in Shanghai, and their physical fitness was miserable, and when they ran past the first cross-country run, there were less than half of them, and only eighteen of them ran back to school, and the rest were basically unqualified, and seven were carried back. Leo was very angry, and reprimanded these people without any mercy, and punished all those who were unqualified for an hour.
Yang Rui is actually also in this unqualified, his physical fitness was not bad when he was in college, let alone going to work, he basically gasped when he ran, he was tired when he jumped, his face was white after running, his throat was bitter, he wanted to vomit and he didn't dare to vomit because he was in the way of face, it was really sad. After standing for an hour, I took a few bites of tapioca and went to the shower, and went back to my bedroom to sleep. In a daze, I suddenly thought of the few classmates who were carried back, and it seemed that two of them had twisted their feet, and now they were all in the infirmary, and I had to go and see them as a teacher.
Struggling, Yang Rui reluctantly got up, thinking while going out, his leader is really exemplary, hardships first, condolences later, why are those leaders in later generations so happy, how did they do it? The infirmary was in the easternmost part of the classroom, and when he first arrived at the door, Yang Rui heard the crying inside, coughed dryly at the door, and Yang Rui pushed the door in. At this time, the military doctor Hull had already left, and only two students were seen in the room, one was Chen Guangshou, he was standing by the bed, comforting the student who was lying on the bed crying just now, his face was blue, and there were tears on his face, this student's name was Xu Zulie, who was also from Quzhou, and Chen Guangshou was a fellow villager.
"Crying for what? Is training too hard? Yang Rui was most annoyed by crying, he was very dissatisfied when he saw a man crying, and his voice was much louder than usual.
Chen Guangshou saw Yang Rui come in and immediately got up and stood upright, Xu Zulie thought about it several times but was unsuccessful, Chen Guangshou saw this and hurriedly said: "Report to the chief, no." β
"What are you crying about, homesick?" Yang Rui felt that he was still a little stricter, but for the sake of all the students, he had to do so.
At this time, Xu Zulie had already struggled to stand up, "Report to the chief, the student only hates himself for being useless, how can this useless body serve the country?" He was not tall, he stood staggeringly, and Chen Guangshou next to him helped him to stand firmly, but his face was resolute.
What he said was unexpected by Yang Rui, at first he thought that the training was too hard, and then he thought that he should be homesick, but in the end, he blamed himself for his incompetence. Yang Rui, who came from the economic society of later generations, knew that he could not evaluate the people of this era according to his past experience, looking at his shaking body but trying to stand up and his calm gaze, Yang Rui felt that what he said was true. After nodding at him, "What is useful or useless, a cripple of the Warring States can still assassinate Qingji." We still have eight months, and we'll cry when we don't qualify. β
"Yes, sir." Xu Zulie and Chen Guangshou replied loudly to make Yang Rui's mood better, "Didn't you say that there are seven people, what about the others?" β
Chen Guangshou replied: "The others have all eased up and have already gone back." β
It seems that the situation is better than expected, these students just did not adapt at first, "Take a good rest, and return to the team for training when you recover." Originally, Yang Rui wanted to say something more, but when he saw Xu Zulie's shaking appearance, he left without saying a few words.
When he returned to the bedroom, Yang Rui didn't feel sleepy, and his heart was touched when he thought of Xu Zulie's appearance. It's the worst of times, and it's the best of times! Yang Rui didn't know how to think of this sentence.
