87_87379 After the Boxer Rebellion, after three months, it was still depressed, and Er Li walked in the streets and alleys of Beijing in a sedan chair, and saw the most of the bleakness of Beijing.

Although along the way, there are a lot of people who practice stalls, but the lively scene, it is difficult to hide the depression of the thousands of industries in Beijing, this way, there are only a handful of shops that are seriously opened, Li Dacheng is counting in the sedan curtain, except for a few grain stores passing by, pawnshops, clothing estimates, these two lines, none of them opened.

It is said that at this time, it should be the most active time for pawnshops and clothing estimators, and the people have no money and no food in their hands, so they can only redeem their property for food.

Looking at it all the way, the depression of the Jingshi is stricter than that reported back by the people below, the money village, the pawnshop, the estimated clothes, these shops, the Yellow River Boxing at that time was not less looted, the depression of the Beijing Division, and the foreign devils are not hindered, but he Li Dacheng is more responsible.

While watching the depression of Jingshi, Li Dacheng planned in his heart, it would be no good to let Jingshi go down like this, and now the market needs to be rescued at this time.

The destination is planned by Li Dacheng, not somewhere else, it is the embassy area near Wangfujing, to the Wangfujing area, the two of them have seen some Jingshi meteorology, the shops in the Wangfujing area, in addition to Guishun all, most of them are under the name of King Qing, a prince, a Baylor, two wings to promote, if the surrounding area of Wangfujing is not popular, it is strange!

After passing Wangfujing, Li Dacheng signaled to stop the sedan chair, and he was also holding a Western civilization stick similar to Li Hongzhang. Got off the sedan chair.

"Little brother, what do you want Lao Li to see?"

Surrounded by his entourage, Li Hongzhang walked closer, looked at Wangfujing in the west, and then looked at the sparse Jingshi people walking towards the embassy area on the street. Li Ershen will not be untargeted, but what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd, Li Hongzhang is not very clear.

"What did Lord Zhongtang see along the way?"

Walking a few steps with some effort with a civilized stick, Li Dacheng was also pondering the business opportunities of the current Jingshi, which was not his hunting territory. Although today's Jingshi has a business to do, Gui Shun also needs to have a certain family background, but the investment should not be too large, Gui Shun has enough real estate in Jingshi, and it is not beneficial to dominate the business again.

"Nakado-sama doesn't have to. In your eyes, I'm afraid that this middle hall is also a dry bone in the grave, Lao Li is good!

As for this journey, all the old man has seen is the depression after the Boxer Rebellion raged! ”

Li Hongzhang rolled his eyes and corrected Li Dacheng's name for him, this white eye also has a deep meaning, and the deep meaning in it is mostly to suspect that the Zhenwei Army also participated in the looting.

The six million treasury silver of the household department is missing. So far, there is no clear statement from the household department, the Boxers? Gan Jun? Rioters? Can these people have what it takes to commit such a case? In Li Hongzhang's view, the Dashilar case can be done by those people. In the case of the household department, I am afraid that only General Li Ershen has the ability to be unaware.

"The depression is a bit of a depression, but the Zhenwei army can protect the Beijing division from falling into the flames of war, which is a miracle, what do you say, Lord Zhongtang?"

Brought Li Hongzhang out, Li Dacheng didn't want to listen to him settle accounts after the autumn. I don't understand the current situation. The plundering of the Jingshi, no matter who it is. It's better to expose it, otherwise it will only increase the troubles, and it may lead to death.

"Alas...... It's a pity that the two hundred years of Jingshi have been destroyed in one fell swoop!

That's it! Little brother, why did you invite Lao Li here? ”

After a pause, Li Hongzhang sighed, this is no different from when the Hunan army defeated Tianjing, many things cannot be studied deeply, and the old ladies did not bother to find the heel of Tianjing, what was the result? The stabbing horse case!

"I heard that Lord Zhongtang has pawnshops, ticket numbers and other transactions in his hometown, and now the Jingshi is lacking in these transactions, and the oil and water in it are quite rich.

The accumulation of 200 years in Beijing is not only gold and silver......"

"Get down to business!"

This season is not the time to talk about business, and with the smile on his face, Li Hongzhang decided to go to the bottom.

"Nakado-sama, please ......"

The place where the two got off the sedan chair was the corner of a street, and pointed to the corner with the civilization stick in his hand.

"What's there to see about this, isn't it just the foreign missionaries distributing food?

They've done this a lot before. ”

Turning the corner, Jingshi was a different weather, on a ruin destroyed in the chaos, tens of thousands of people were huddled together, competing for food distributed in the embassy area.

Hearing this scene and seeing this scene are two different concepts, Li Dacheng is in Baylor Mansion, after hearing such news, he wants to take this opportunity to dial Lao Li, you can see such a scene, some memories in Li Dacheng's mind overlap with this scene, Africa! Isn't that the scene in Africa in the future?

Where is this? This is the national capital of China! The people of the imperial capital, like beggars, stretched out their hands and begged for something to eat, pitiful! Lamentable! What a sigh......

This scene did not touch Li Hongzhang much, for 30 years, he had experienced the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Northern Rebellion, the Northwest Rebellion, and the Ding Wu Famine, which were too commonplace for Li Hongzhang.

"Lord Zhongtang, if Lao Maozi uses such a method in the three eastern provinces......"

Standing in Li Hongzhang's point of view, thinking about the tribulations experienced by the people of the Qing Dynasty in the past 30 years, Li Dacheng was also relieved, since the beginning of the Daoguang Dynasty, the word wind and rain has nothing to do with the Qing Dynasty, everywhere chaos and famine, the Beijing-Tianjin Rebellion, from Li Hongzhang's point of view, is really nothing.

"Alas...... If you don't need Lao Maozi to use such a method, our own family will give him such an idea.

Little brother, your mind Lao Li understands, it's still the same sentence, some things are difficult to do! ”

After a few glances, Li Hongzhang turned around the corner and gave Li Ershen a reply as he walked, at this time, Li Hongzhang couldn't see this Li Ershen General clearly. In the first battle of Jingu, Li Ershen gave him the impression that he was insidious and vicious, and Li Ershen had nothing to do with the four words of worrying about the country and the people.

"Lord Zhongtang, I want to say that what I have done is for the country and the people, do you believe it?"

Follow Li Hongzhang out of the corner. Li Dacheng sat down on the stone drum at the entrance of a mansion and asked abruptly.

"Oh...... For the country and the people? ”

Listening to General Li Ershen's abrupt question, Li Hongzhang was stunned for a moment, and also sat firmly on another stone drum according to Li Dacheng's appearance, and groaned in his mouth.

Promoted to make a fortune and plotted the Qing Dynasty. This Li Ershen will do in Beijing and Tianjin, it is indeed not in tune with these, if it is said that he is for the country and the people, the first battle of Jingu, more than 400,000 casualties. The destruction of countless villages and towns, and the destruction of the great Jinmen in the war, are also incompatible with serving the country and the people.

"Nakado-sama doesn't believe me?"

Li Dacheng asked this question, and he was also touched by the scene just now, in his eyes, the people of the Qing Dynasty are just a group of things that have milk and are mothers, where is the integrity? Where is the backbone?

Turning his head and thinking about it. This temperament and backbone are not a good thing, and they have not eaten the last meal. The poor sell their wives and children, and live to this extent, what kind of integrity and backbone do they talk about?

Do the Chinese people have no integrity and backbone? See again when you're full! Under the premise of not having enough food and clothing, it may be more important to live, right?

"Eight points of faith!

Little brother, your thoughts, Lao Li generally understands. A student like you, Lao Li is not qualified to teach. But as an old-timer, there is still a little bit of good words. I'll give you a sentence today: 'Let the people do it!' ’

Lao Li is not a serious reader, and he is not so respectful when he looks at this classic, although this is a bit biased, but it is also a sentence, if the little brother can understand these five words, I am afraid that many things can be done! ”

Don't say anything else, let's just say that Li Ershen will be injured! It's not for the country and the people, which one would play so desperately?

Li Dacheng's injuries were also learned by Li Hongzhang through his own channels, and almost all of them were broken, which was almost impossible for the commander of the first army.

General Li Ershen is not the commander of an army like Nie Shicheng and Luo Rongguang who needs to rely on the front line, but the commander of the 300,000 Zhenwei army! He can hit that kind of Cheng dù in Jinmen, and it is difficult to find such a handsome man in ancient and modern times.

After thinking about this, Li Hongzhang did not hide his selfishness, and slightly dialed Li Ershen's generals, and the people could make it, in Li Hongzhang's view, it was really a good word.

"Can the people do it? Can the people do it? What's underneath? ”

"Don't know!"

"Oh...... The people can make it happen, but they can't know it, this is the words of the Analects, right? ”

"Not bad!"

"Did Lord Zhongtang ever understand these five words?

If you understand these five words, I am afraid that you will not be defeated by the First Sino-Japanese War! ”

Li Dacheng pondered a little, and he understood the meaning, which is basically the same as his thoughts, and he understood the meaning of these five words, Li Dacheng glanced at Lao Li sitting on the stone drum, it seems that this person does not understand the meaning of these five words, right?

"Uh...... What do you mean by that? ”

was pushed by General Li Ershen, Li Hongzhang was a little stunned, and thought for a while that the people could make five words, he didn't understand the meaning of General Li Ershen's words, what does this have to do with foreign affairs?

"Let the people do it! To put it more bluntly, is it to drive the people with profit? ”

"Yes, although this interpretation is a bit of a distortion of the classics, the meaning is more clear."

"Oh...... When doing foreign affairs, why didn't you Lao Li think of driving the people with profit?

The interests in foreign affairs, you don't need you and me to argue about anything, Lao Li, tell me, do you understand the meaning of these five words? ”

Saying that the people can be used for it, Li Dacheng has nothing to say, but when it comes to driving the people with profit, he has a lot of sayings, whether it is the Yellow River fist and fist, or driving the 300,000 Zhenwei army to fight Jingu, Li Dacheng is playing the method of driving the people with profit, if the people can be driven by profit, then Li Dacheng is a great expert in this way.

"Haha...... Eli drives the people, alas......

I didn't understand it for a long time! When you understand, everything is over!

Little brother, you haven't been in officialdom, you will understand Lao Li's difficulties now in the future!

Alas...... Man is more dead than man! With your means, I'm afraid it's hard to understand Lao Li's difficulties! ”

To drive the people with profit, than the people can make it more concise and to the point, I wanted to spit out the bitterness in my heart with Li Ershen, but I can think of what Li Ershen will do, Li Hongzhang is a little distracted, if Li Ershen will act in the way, supplemented by Gui Shun's power in the court, some things are done, it is very easy!

I wanted Li Ershen to also taste the bitter taste of his current life, but looking at it, people have no constraints from officialdom at all.

Li Ershen will be lawless, Gui Shun will ascend to the sky in one step, and Zhenwei Army will be in the sky, such a combination can be successful!

"Seeing you, we will understand many hardships!

What do you think?

Lao Li, how about our two Li really cooperate? ”

In Li Dacheng's eyes, Li Hongzhang is not a traitor, and he has been able to maintain the Manchu Qing Dynasty to the present day under the situation of nearly 30 years.

"Cooperation? Aren't we already working together? ”

"That's not what I'm talking about!

If you have a heart, I will help you sweep Tsarist Russia out of the negotiation table.

This peace talks, although it is still a loss of power and humiliation of the country, but Lao Tzu can make you become a hero in the eyes of future generations, as long as the peace talks sweep out of Tsarist Russia, in the next ten years, Lao Tzu can make them anxious, if the opportunity is right, Lao Tzu let the Tsarist people can only appear in the history books! ”

If Li Hongzhang cooperates, Li Dacheng can do what he says, if he doesn't cooperate, it can only be like this, nothing more than compensation. (To be continued).
