614 Unusual city tours
"The people may make it to it, but they cannot know it...... Xiao Letian, a demon, actually understands these methods of governance? The great misfortune of the Qing Dynasty......
Just when the third master was visiting the Longxugou project, a sigh came from their side, and when they turned their heads, they saw that it was Weng Tongyong, the leader of the Qingliu, and it had only been a few days since he saw that this scholar of Wenhua Palace was actually several years old.
At this time, Weng Tongxiao also saw Fuqing, and the third master smiled politely and bowed to him, but Weng Tongrong frowned tightly and did not return the courtesy, but said with a sneer.
"Third Master Qing, you are also from a Manchurian surname, how could the Fucha clan have such a rebellious nature? What Xiao Letian did in the capital was nothing more than digging the hearts of the people of the imperial court, and he also used the great rebellious means of proverbs and songs, what does it mean to have food with the prime minister? Can he Xiao Letian manage a city, can he also manage the entire Qing Dynasty?"
"He can't control it, he's just pretending, he's digging the corners of the court, he's bullying the people to be ignorant!"
Qing Sanye didn't have the heart to quarrel with him, but said lightly, "People are doing it, the sky is watching!" After speaking, he ignored him.
"You!" Weng Tongyi looked at Qing Sanye's back, and the roots of his teeth itched, but he couldn't do anything.
"Let's go, let's go into the palace, I want to meet the queen mother......" Weng Tongyi's only hope now is to persuade the queen mother of the two palaces, looking at Xiao Letian's dragon beard ditch transformation plan, he knows which princes and ministers can sell anything for money.
No matter what means Weng Tongyi wanted to use, the nature of Qing Sanye's tour of the city did not weaken by half a minute, leaving Longxugou and the group walked to Dashilar, and it was time to find a place to eat at noon.
The road was full of Manchu soldiers cleaning up, and the patrolling new soldiers wore brand new military uniforms and carried foreign guns on their backs and shouted the slogan of 121 through the streets and alleys.
"One-two-one...... One, two, one...... "The immature children's voice made the adults laugh. This is the love between the army and the people that the third master has never seen in his life, an army that makes the people respect rather than fear, it is really rare to find in history.
Clean streets, freshly painted walls, and the sense of security that patrolling the army brings to the population make it feel like a dream for those present. There are no more beggars begging for food on the streets, gangsters with red arms, and even thieves dare not commit crimes under the threat of foreign guns and bayonets.
It is true that the new army loves the people like a son, but when they see crime, it is really suppressed, and there were a few gangsters who fished in troubled waters and robbed department stores, so that the patrolling new army saw a row of foreign guns without saying a word, and they were all nailed to the wall.
In troubled times, the new army doesn't care if you are wronged or not, and if you still run away after shouting three times, don't blame us for being ruthless. The corpses of the dead thugs hung on the intersection, intimidating all the bad guys.
The law and order are unprecedentedly good, the city is rarely clean in history, the price of 40 Wen rice is rare in a century, and there is an army that has never bullied the people, such a prosperous scene seems to have only appeared in the dreams of literati.
To tell the truth, Weng Tongyi and the literati still admired Xiao Letian's methods, and it was not possible to govern Jingshi like this in just a few days. But it's a pity that these credits belong to Xiao Letian, not to them, and the literati who have been convicted of pink eye only hate Xiao Letian even more.
Boom Boom Boom ...... After a few gongs, several officials pulled their necks and shouted, "Pass the Prime Minister's order...... Hire a spicy and bold woman and set up a red armband! As long as you become a red armband, you can divide three liters of white rice in a month, and the opportunity is rare, so it's good to come early......"
"What is this?" Mugeji looked puzzled, and he beckoned to the officer, "You come here, let me ask you, what is a red armband?"
The official carrying the gong recognized Qing Sanye and Mu Geji and the others at a glance, and quickly knelt down and beat Qian, "I've seen all the adults, the little ones are greeting the adults...... This red armband is an organization ordered by the prime minister, which is to gather those hot-skinned women who dare to scold the street and fight, and let them help maintain the security and cleanliness of the city!"
"How do you say it? Whoever doesn't pay attention to hygiene, spitting, urinating, littering and other things, these red armbands are responsible for blocking the door and scolding the street, and the ancestors and grandmothers scold them for stinking, and they have to pay attention to hygiene for the rest of their lives...... Hey, this prime minister is good everywhere, he just loves to be clean too much......"
The third master and his party were stupid, they didn't expect Xiao Lotian to play like this, is this the power of unity?
While talking, there was a sudden quarrel in the alley, and the official stuck out his tongue: "Look, my lord, don't you start scolding this red armband?
Following the sound, the third master walked into the alley, but it was already crowded with people, and all the neighbors came to see the excitement, only to see three big-footed women, with their waists crossed, scolding at a closed gate.
"Hu Xiucai, you have a son who has no asshole, and there are sores on the top of your head and pus under your feet...... This snow-white wall was painted with white ash at the prime minister's expense, and you dare to break the dirty water in your house? This alley is all contracted by our sisters and sons, and if you smash our rice bowl, we will dare to scold you......"
"Phew...... You can't be a showman in your life, you deserve to be cut off, and your wife will bring you a green hat...... Your daughter-in-law raises wild men, and you yourself are a shameless turtle man......"
Good guys, the three red armbands sprayed foam, and the people around them listened to the cold air one by one, the scolding was too ugly, Hu Xiucai was also a literati, and these red armbands relied on the support of the prime minister to scold this is called a cheerful.
After all, Shishan and Shishui are literati, and they trembled and said, "It's over, it's a little too old to love each other...... It's insulting!"
Shishan Shishui's words made the three ladies hear, and they saw that it was a group of nobles looking at them, and they were not afraid of Wanfu saluting and said, "A few nobles don't know, we neighbors have lived in Donkey Meat Hutong for generations, and we grew up here...... To be honest, we never thought that this alley could be so clean in this life!"
"The stinky mud all over the street has been shoveled clean, the walls have been freshly painted, and I heard that after a while, we will have to repair the water gutter, which is the good governance of the prime minister......!
"You smell it, it smells of rancid water...... We began to persuade them with kind words that they actually closed the door for me! Such unreasonable people cannot be polite, and the prime minister spends money to let us scold people, and we will let them remember it for the rest of their lives!"
"Hu Xiucai, listen to me...... With the prime minister supporting us, we are not afraid of you, and when the time comes, let the prime minister revoke your reputation! The shameless old Wang Ba, with a family of little Wang Ba, ......"
The scolding war started again, the swear words escalated more and more, and in the end, the Hu family couldn't stand it anymore, and the ladies of the family pushed open the door and began to fight back, but how could they be the opponents of the red armbands, and they were scolded and cried alive without even holding on for a quarter of an hour.
"Master, I'm not alive...... I'm dead!" the daughter-in-law of the Hu family sat on the threshold and kicked her legs wildly, her eyes falling down.
Hu Xiucai really couldn't stand it, "Enough...... Insulting Sven, you are insulting Sven!"
"Phew...... You're still Sven, Sven's people are just splashing dirty water and throwing garbage all over the streets? Your sage's book is in the stomach of the dog? Let me ask you, the sage's book allows you to throw garbage and dirty water everywhere? Do you still and pee everywhere!"
"Old shameless, there is a kind of peeing on the spot, if you dare to pee, we won't scold you!"
Hu Xiucai was completely defeated, he covered his face with his hands and said, "What do you want?
"Go buy white ash and paint the stained walls, that's it!" said the red armband.
Hu Xiucai was stunned for a moment: "What? It's that simple? Aren't you sent by Xiao Letian to deliberately suppress our scholars? Such a big move just wants us to clean up?"
The three red armbands pouted, "Ya, you also deserve to be suppressed by the prime minister? A sour talented prime minister knows who you are? I sue you, today's big movement is to make your family get rid of the problem of unhygienic care...... If we don't pay attention to it in the future, we will continue to scold!"
Hu Xiucai covered his face with his hands and promised with a full mouth, "Immediately, I will immediately ask my subordinates to buy white ash, I don't dare in the future, I don't dare!"
The crowd dispersed, and the third master looked at the pickles on the wall, and suddenly had an epiphany. Xiao Lotian used violent means to make Sijiu City like a paradise on earth, so how can the Manchus maintain it after withdrawing their troops in the future?
"It is conceivable that Xiao Letian withdraws his troops, and Sijiu City will become dirty and messy again in less than half a year, and the price of rice will not be stable, and these eight women will not have three liters of rice, and all the people will miss the period when Xiao Letian was in power...... What a terrible trick!"
The third master listened to his brother's sigh and whispered, "So we have to innovate, the old road has been exhausted, we don't take the initiative to change, and in the end it will be just the end of a ruined country......"
"I am now a second-grade topper, and all the foreign affairs work in the Prime Minister's Yamen is operated by me, and the brothers around me must help me when the time comes, and I will also use Xiao Letian's resources to train a new army for our Qing Dynasty, and we will also open our own Western-style school, hand-in-hand reserve talents......"
"We also have to intervene in the business of Lotte & Co., and we must have our own financial resources...... All in all, we reformers are going to make our own way, and we can no longer be superstitious about the empty promises of the imperial court, and the coup d'état in the Xinyou period has proved that the imperial court is unreliable......"
"The future of the Manchurians must be in the hands of our reformers!"
A tour of the city, in the end, actually became an oath ceremony for the reformers to strengthen their confidence, and Xiao Letian's heavy means had stimulated them from their souls.
From this day on, there was a complete rupture within the Manchurians.
