Rong Hong's mention was actually Yang Rui's idea, Yang Rui nodded and then said: "The third is capital, our original intention is to start a company to make money and then support the revolution, but China's market is too small, if you want to make money, you still have to go to the United States." So we hope to hire him as our consultant and help us open our business with the help of his connections. ”

After Yang Rui finished speaking, Rong Hong laughed, Kang Liang and others used the hard-earned money donated by overseas Chinese to enjoy themselves in the name of opening a company, but here they used their own money to open a company and pay for the revolution. A few months ago, Liang Qi came to the United States to engage in fundraising tours, and when he passed through Harbin City, he visited him. After laughing, Rong Hong said: "There is really a way to become a single-minded country, but it is a pity that some people, hey, don't say it." What company are you going to open? ”

Yang Rui suppressed the idea of telling him that there was already a company in the United States, and only said: "There are already some rough ideas, but I will not know the specific things until I return to China." I'll contact you sir when the time comes. ”

Rong Hong agreed, Yang Rui continued: "Now the more urgent thing: that is, the technicians of the arsenal should start preparing now, and I will raise money after returning to China, I hope that Mr. will have a specific plan at that time, such as how much money is needed to open such an arsenal to buy equipment, and what equipment is needed?" There is also the need for how many technical personnel, what academic qualifications are needed for these people to be successfully trained, where to put them in training, and how long does it take to train them well? Finally, there is the question of funding, how much money will be needed after the project is launched? ”

The cautious nature made Yang Rui not tell him where Rong Hong's revival society would revolt, let alone tell him about the Northeast Railway and the affairs of the former Ming Dynasty, Rong Hong was originally wanted by the Qing court after the uprising of the Self-Reliance Army, if the commercial line, especially the domestic business side, was linked to Rong Hong, then it is easy for people with a heart to set their sights on Zhong Guanguan's side, because Yang Rui did not disclose anything to Rong Hong about the other two things that came to the United States, he only said that his itinerary was to go to San Francisco after leaving New York, Then take a boat back home.

The deep conversation in the study continued until late at night, and it was not until the clock struck eleven o'clock that Yang Ruiti went to bed. When he got up the next morning for morning exercises, he had already gotten up and was reading a book in the living room in good spirits, which made Yang Rui impress that he was in good health. It has snowed all night in Hartford since yesterday, looking at this crystal white world, Yang Rui can't help but think of the northeast where he will stay in a few months, and he really doesn't know if he will hang in that white mountain and black water. In the past, when I read those time-traveling novels, I didn't have to worry about the fate of the protagonist at all, but now it's not, who can be sure that he is the protagonist? Thinking of this, Yang Rui couldn't help but complain about why the great god didn't get a body armor for himself, but when he thought about it, sometimes body armor is useless, in addition to bullets, shells can also kill people. Leave it to fate!

For the next two days, Yang Rui lived in Rong Hong's house, and the two rarely talked about other topics except how to rebel and how to revolution, his eldest son Rong Jintong is a metallurgical engineer and graduated from Columbia University with a master's degree, and his younger son has also graduated from Yale University and is now working at the New York Green Arms Company. Rong Hong said that if there was a need for revival, he was willing to send the two of them to serve in China, but Yang Rui felt uneasy, so that he would get away his son, what if the old man had something. I had to say that the country is not safe now, and the production of arms is not so fast, and when the situation in the country is opened, it will be decided according to the situation, and Rong Hong agreed.

Soon, at the Thanksgiving dinner on November 26, Rong Hong announced his decision to the two brothers, of course, he did not say anything like revolution, only said that he hoped that the two brothers would return to China to serve the country, although Rong Hong has been an American citizen for decades, but he has always regarded himself and his two children as Chinese, the atmosphere of the restaurant was solemn because of this speech, Yang Rui was very restless, in the face of such a situation, he only found an excuse to run away, and then in the room you can still hear Rong Hong's excited words in the restaurant, It is clear that the two brothers may not be happy to leave the comfort of the United States to go to a place that the media calls barbaric and backward, despite the fact that their father has such a deep affection for China.

On the morning of the next day, Rong Hong told Yang Rui that he would organize the personnel of the future arsenal in the United States in the past two years, and then go to the Northeast in a few years. According to the actual situation, if the country needs it, then he will immediately resign and return to China to serve, in the face of such a result, Yang Rui really doesn't know what to say.

The day before leaving Hartford, Rong Hong took Yang Rui for a walk near a school, passed by a three-story building and said: "Actually, that is the former study abroad office, built in 1875, and cost the imperial court 75,000 US dollars. Unexpectedly, alas, it didn't take long for him to withdraw. ”

Yang Rui knew about the Qing Dynasty's plan for young children to study in the United States, and Rong Hong was the promoter of this plan. Because of the early death in the middle of the process, only a few of the four groups of more than 100 international students completed their studies, and the rest dropped out of school and returned to China. If this study abroad plan had persisted at that time, China would have been a different story entirely.

"Chungong." Before, when I heard Rong Hong talk about the affairs of the Chinese Congress, everyone called him Chungong, and Yang Rui also learned to call him. "This is the first opportunity wasted by the Qing court, and if the study abroad program had not been interrupted, then China might have been different."

Speaking of this painstaking past, Rong Hong was still very emotional, and said half-loudly: "They are too old. There is no way to lead the country any further. In the future, China will have to rely on you young people, but ah, you must unite. ”

Yang Rui knew what he meant, and it was hard to say anything on this issue now, he just said silently: "Yes, as long as everyone has the same idea, it will naturally be united." ”

The next day, Yang Rui said goodbye to Rong Hong and came to New York, just returned to New York, McNeil gave Yang Rui a telegram from Wang Jitong a few days ago, the telegram said that a few days ago the US minister in Beijing sent someone to find Zhong Guanguan, the two sides chatted very happily, after Zhong Guanguan said the two conditions, the Americans expressed their willingness to lend money for the railway, Zhong Guanguan replied that there is no need for a loan for the time being according to Yang Rui's instructions in the previous email, and once again reiterated the guarantee of inviting American companies to manage after the completion of the railway. and hopes that the United States will open a consulate in Andong and invest in the construction of an ocean-going terminal.

On November 3o, Yang Rui received a telegram from Wang Jitong, the Antongfeng Railway was approved by the Qing court, in order to complete the project smoothly, and also gave Zhong Guan a Shang Fang sword, the Qing court signaled that if someone maliciously obstructed the road construction, it could be cut first, and at the same time, the Ministry of Commerce also approved the "Antongfeng Railway Regulations" on the second day, and the original was not changed. The Qing court was very willing to have such a railway, so that the influence of the railway inside and outside the Guanxi could penetrate deep into the northeast.6 And this railway was different from the Beijing-Zhangjiakou railway, because it passed through the mountainous area, the cost of road construction was huge but the benefits were limited, and the commercial operation was the best. Before, Russia did not dare to approve because of opposition, but now the United States pulled Britain, and Britain and Japan signaled to the Qing court to approve the railway, so the Qing court immediately agreed to ride a donkey downhill. The day after the approval of the railway, the news was published in the newspapers, and the Russian Minister Resal did not react, and it seemed that Russia had acquiesced to the result.

Yang Rui was happy for a while with the telegram, making the others outside the office inexplicable, originally the few old Americans outside were surprised to see the boss Mr. McNeill bring a Chinese, although the anti-Chinese style is not prevalent on the East Coast, but under the influence of newspaper public opinion, Americans have no good feelings at all for the "coolies" who are "dirty, licking internal organs, and do not believe in God", and at this time they are even more disgusted to hear the exaggerated laughter of this Chinese outside, but fortunately, this Chinese soon disappeared.

On December 3, Yang Rui stepped on the Pacific Railway, which was praised as one of the seven industrial wonders of the world by the British BBc in later generations, the 3,786-mile-long railway was divided into two sections, the section near the east coast was called the Union Pacific Railway, and the section near the west was called the Central Pacific Railway, and the boundary was in Ogden, because it was too long, it took seven days to cross this railway, and Yang Rui arrived in San Francisco on the 1o day. As in New York, he spent only $800 on makeup to get four detective agencies to help make up the story, and he also asked for extra help finding engineers from the Western Chinese Association to build railroads. Soon, the detectives all passed back the same company and the name of the Chinese - Seattle Guangde Company, Chen Yixi.

According to the detectives, Mr. Chen is an old expatriate whose main business is to help the railway company recruit workers and contract the construction of the railway — a railway construction contractor, to be exact, the Guangde company, which he opened more than a decade ago. And Chen Yixi himself is famous because in the Seattle Chinese Exclusion Case a few years ago, he single-handedly used legal means to help the injured Chinese workers get justice.

"So, he's in Seattle, right?" Yang Rui asked in surprise, Seattle seems to be on the Canadian side. He originally thought that overseas Chinese were gathered in San Francisco, but in fact they were not, there were overseas Chinese in many cities in the United States.

"Yes, Mr. Jordan, you can get there by train, it will only take about two days." The detective from the office was very enthusiastic to show him the way.

In Seattle, Yang Rui found Guangde Company, Chen Yixi is a sixty-year-old man, and his capable temperament seems to be a Japanese under the suit and leather shoes. In fact, he looked at Chen Yixi like a Japanese, and people also looked at him like a Japanese, if Yang Rui hadn't said that he was from China when he reported it, he would still want to ask in English.

Slightly surprised, although there are many Chinese who come to ask for help, they all have braids. Chen Yixi asked: "Hou Shengzi, what are you doing with me?" ”

The vernacular he used, Yang Rui could only listen to a rough idea, meaning that he was looking for something for him. "Mr. Chen, it's about a railway." As he spoke, Yang Rui handed over a copy of the Los Angeles Times, which had a page dedicated to commenting on the first private railway in the Qing Dynasty -- the Antongfeng Railway, of course, mainly to analyze the impact of this railway on the trade between the United States and the United States, and the author of the article believed that the Andong and this railway, which were promised by the Sino-US businessmen and the Qing Dynasty, would be a solid foundation for the further growth of the United States' trade with Manchuria.

As an engineer who built a railway, as a Chinese, Chen Yixi knew this news, of course, he only knew, and according to the usual practice, the railway was immediately handed over to foreign engineers for construction. At this time, seeing Yang Rui take out this news, he said in English in surprise: "Are you going to build this railway?" ”

Yang Rui smiled and replied in English: "Yes, the Tonghua Railway Company does not want to hand over the construction of the railway to foreigners, so they sent me to the United States to find Chinese with road construction experience." If Mr. Chan has no other reason, I would like to take over the construction of this railway. ”

Chen Yixi fell silent when he heard this, and the matter was very sudden. Suddenly, there was such a nearly 400-mile railway sent to the door for him to repair, which was a bit incredible, but looking at Yang Rui's expression, it didn't seem like a joke. Yang Rui seemed to know his doubts, and took out some information about the Tonghua Railway Company and the Antongfeng Railway. In fact, this railway was planned by him in the room based on the electronic map, and the most original information is here with him.
