"Eh, tomorrow summon your brother to Beijing to face the saint?" Duanfang has had a good time recently, chartered a cruise ship on Daming Lake all day, listened to the singing of several major teams from the capital to Jinan Bai Wharf, fished and chanted poetry in his spare time, and also met a few well-educated people in the Qiuliu Poetry Society.

"Yes, I don't know if Lord Futai has any news from the capital? Now the lower officials are also confused, I don't know how the imperial court will summon me to Beijing in this busy autumn harvest season? "Wu Chenxuan actually knew some information through the secret stake of King Qing and the Chamber of Commerce, but he needed to confirm it in many ways. Duan Fang is already in a state of semi-retirement, and the boss of this banner * Ronglu has been hanging for nearly a year, and seeing that his term of office is about to expire, he doesn't care about the movements of the court, so Wu Chenxuan's question made Duan Fang realize that he is still a provincial Futai, and it is also a little too closed.

"I haven't heard anything unfavorable to my brother, seeing the flood of the Huai River and the drought in Henan in the first half of the year, only Shandong is quite rich, but I am afraid that the court is worried about Shandong's money and grain, and we want to find a way to share the worries of the court." Duan Fang can only guess, not to mention that after all, he is in the role of a provincial secretary, this nonsense can also be touched, and he is indeed a politician with high political consciousness.

"Ah, in this case, the lower officials will retire, hurry back to sort out the accounts of the treasury, and see how much money and food can be allocated, it is the duty of my generation of officials to share the worries and solve problems for the court, and it is not good to slack off on their duties."

"Brother Wu is really a capable minister and cadre of the country, to be honest, when I first arrived in office, I was still worried about your brother's military achievements, and he was young, for fear that it would be difficult to reconcile the two sides, who knows that he has worked with your brother for several years, and he knows that Brother Wu is official, loyal to the country, and has a lot of help for me, a Shangguan, and a few years with my brother is really a great joy in life."

"Listen to my brother, why don't you plan to stay in office for another term? Could it be that there is some immortal nether to embarrass you? ”

"No, brother, I still have self-knowledge, what do you say, it's all coaxing, our brothers don't play false, brother, the most correct thing I do is not to be greedy for power, not to fight for profit, with the joint efforts of my brother and a group of officials, this Shandong Mansion is the paradise of the Qing Dynasty. People should cherish their blessings, brother, I have been an Anle official for two years, in this life, it is enough. Duan Fang was also perfunctory to Wu Chenxuan, but as he spoke, he was also moved by his true feelings, so he simply took out a fold from the drawer and handed it to Wu Chenxuan, "Take a look, brother." Brother, I should retreat, and if I dominate this son again, I won't be left behind. In the end, my brother can do something good for your brother and Shandong fathers, which is to strongly recommend your brother to take my place. Duan Fang said embarrassed and continued.

"It is said that the martyrs are in their twilight years, and the old man is in the twilight of his life, and I have something I want to discuss with you when I am here."

"Brother, even if you tell me, my brother will do it." Wu Chenxuan patted his chest, anyway, he knew that it was impossible to stop his career at this end, and then he would act Liangjiang, and after that, he would also be transferred to the governor of Hunan. Two years later, he was recalled to Beijing and promoted to the governorship of Fujian and Zhejiang. After returning to China, he will be promoted to the second and first position of the national marshal-Governor of Liangjiang and Governor of Zhili. In the office of the governor of Zhili, because he did not handle the relationship with Xiao Dezhang's eunuchs, because Fusheng Photo Studio secretly took photos of Cixi's burial as a person from Duanfang's mansion, he was entangled in Duanfang after being captured, and was instigated by the eunuchs to attack Duanfang, crushed Duanfang's defense line, and picked his top flower. As a result, Duanfang set two of the most, the shortest-lived governor of Zhili, and the first official to be dismissed due to the clandestine shooting incident.

"It's the Chamber of Commerce library run by the Chamber of Commerce, brother, I don't have an opinion, the literati of Qilu are very concerned about the library, but they don't dare to agree with the word "Title Chamber of Commerce", which you also understand, ah, our Shandong is the homeland of Confucianism, since ancient times, we pay attention to farming and reading heirlooms, this business has been quite despised by these scribes since the time of Guan Zhong, if this library can be renamed Shandong University Library, it will naturally be more satisfactory to all parties."

Although Wu Chenxuan muttered in his heart, "Why do I think the Chamber of Commerce is not satisfied?" But there was no impatience on his face, but a teachable expression, "It's the little brother Meng Lang, this library is the Chamber of Commerce inside and outside the silver, and it is called the Chamber of Commerce Library, in fact, the left and right are just a small matter of ten thousand two silver, since the elder brother said here, then don't bother the master, please wave a plaque, in the future, leave your Mobao in Jinan, so that future generations can look at your hard work of educating the people." Wu Chenxuan knew in his heart that leaving the library of the Chamber of Commerce was a bottomless pit, and who had the money to live in such a bad place. Since he is not worried that the library will be surnamed Aixin Jueluo, Wu Chenxuan will also be a favor and give Duan Fang a chance to leave his name in history, which can be regarded as a commendation for not giving himself the credit for making trouble, which Shang Fang has an incomparable advantage over Tie Liang, Liangbi and others.

Duan Fang is actually the founder of China's first kindergarten and provincial library. The pioneer of modern public librarianship, when he visited foreign countries, he saw that foreign famous capitals have official public collection institutions, and the popularization of public education made him refreshed. He then called for the establishment of a public collection institution, the library, and became a promoter of the establishment of libraries and the development of librarianship. He contributed a lot to the establishment of the earliest government-run public libraries in China, such as the Jiangnan Library, the Hubei Provincial Library, the Hunan Library, and the Jingshi Library. In order to complete the transition from China's feudal library to a modern library, it played an important role in promoting and contributed to the preservation of ancient Chinese documents. He feared that the "8,000-volume building" would repeat the mistake of the "Silk Song Building", so he asked the government to buy Ding Bing's collection of books for 75,000 yuan and store them in the Jiangnan Library (now Nanjing Library). It can be said that Duanfang can also be regarded as the initiator of the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education. In terms of cultural inheritance, it is very worthy of the respect of those officials who are educated in later generations, as for those who can take education as a business, no, they are completely kidnappers who are dressed in official skins, holding seals in their hands, robbing money and killing people compared to mountain bandits and water thieves, no wonder later generations only have car bandits and road blockers who wear road government uniforms, and scoundrels who wear law enforcement uniforms, but they do not see bandit habitual criminals who set up villages in the mountains and block roads and rob money. In the ranks of public servants, he became a civil servant.

It seems that here, even if a plaque is discarded, Wu Chenxuan hurriedly started his next step of preparations. Li Anda is also righteous, although now Lafayette's favor has been placed on the comber Xiao Dezhang, but the chief manager Li is still a time-honored eunuch, and the big and small affairs in the palace are still difficult to escape his eyes. The ins and outs of the sudden order to summon me into Beijing were also thoroughly understood with the small talk during the massage and bath. It is said that although Wu Chenxuan arranged two helpers, Manager Li and Qing Wangye, one bright and one dark, but there are more people who can't stand offending, just blocking the Qingliu, Manchu officials and Beijing officials who want to go to Shandong to fish for oil and water, there are no less than dozens, blocking people's financial paths, if killing parents, plus the old department of Ronglu before, there are also Yuan Shikai and Yuan Datou's secret hands. With the motion of "subsidizing the river workers with Lu taxes", the household department that was tightly on hand took the lead, and for a time Shandong became a fragrant bait in the imperial court, and the travel expenses of the special envoy to Germany, who could not even fight with eight poles, were planned to be reimbursed in Shandong, on the grounds that the boxers originated in Shandong. "There is a debtor who is wronged, and it is the government that crosses the river in the south." The crowd in Beijing was angry for a while, and they looked like they were going south to eat big households.

Wu Chenxuan already has information, so naturally he will not fail to deal with it. For a time, Shandong was dry in spring and flooded in summer, grain production was reduced and the harvest was lost, the people were displaced, and the Yellow River burst in the previous section, more than 10,000 victims, and all the state capitals played the imperial court to reduce taxes and ask for relief, saying that the second Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was about to break out, and the court was at a loss for a while, so they had to send a supervising imperial history to inspect first, and when they were full of food and drink, they took the silver and returned to Beijing to restore their lives.

At present, the new armed forces stationed in various localities have also trained and expanded their troops, and the training of new recruits has also been standardized; after three months of intensive training, they are assigned to various units, and then noncommissioned officers are promoted to the old battalions for intensive training. At present, the establishment of an association is obviously insufficient, and the first major reorganization of the new armed forces since its formation is imminent.

"The presidential system has arrived." Wu Chenxuan was wearing an officer uniform of the Wuyi New Army, although he did not wear any military rank, but the cuffs, collar badge and the gold-embroidered swastika pattern on the brim of the big cap told the officers in Hongguoguo that this is our real boss. The officers on both sides of the conference table were lined up left and right, all standing upright at this time, their hats on the countertops at their sides, their notebooks and pens neatly arranged, their white gloves sticking to the seams of their trousers, and their eyes looking straight ahead.

"All of them, sit down." With the order of He Dazhuang, the officer on duty that day, all the officers sat down, and even the big and grinning old man who was very arrogant on weekdays strictly abided by the regulations on military appearance and military discipline, and sat meticulously.

"The rearmament programme is read out below. Please pay attention to the records. He Dazhuang took a folder handed over by his master, opened it at Wu Chenxuan's signal, cleared his throat, and announced:

"The reorganization plan of the Wuyi New Army is as follows: the first standard, the second standard, the third standard, and the fourth standard of the new army are expanded into the first to fourth mixed associations of the new army, and the original standard commanders Xiao Mingfeng, Wu Ziyu, Du Zicheng, Wu Luzhen, and the officers of the subordinate specimen department have all been promoted to officers of the association headquarters. The original artillery standards were split, and the 1st to 4th 70th Mountain Artillery and 77th Field Artillery Mixed Squadrons were expanded to correspond to the artillery standards of each association, and were incorporated into the establishment of each mixed association. The Fifth Mixed Squadron was expanded into an artillery training base, and the former artillery standard commander He Lao 8 was appointed as the commander of the base, responsible for the training of artillery recruits. The original artillery standard special howitzer squadron was expanded into the artillery standard directly under the Wuyi New Army, and Zhang Shao, the deputy of the original artillery standard, was once the artillery standard commander directly under the artillery standard. The 1st to 4th squadrons of the baggage standard were expanded to correspond to the heavy standards of each association and included in the establishment of each mixed association. The former Fifth Squadron of the Baggage Squadron was expanded into the logistics training base of the Wuyi New Army, and Yang Shihai, the former commander of the Baggage Standard, served as the commander of the base. The cavalry standard was not adapted for the time being, but was changed to the cavalry standard directly under the Wuyi New Army, and Hulegu (a horseman sent by Rebudan Jiaren, after attending the non-commissioned officer training class, took the initiative to ask to join the Wuyi New Army. He was appointed as the standard commander of the cavalry. The compilation of the directly subordinate standard remains unchanged, and He Dazhuang is still the direct subordinate standard system. ”

Seeing that everyone was promoted, the waists of these people seemed to collapse a little all of a sudden, Wu Chenxuan understood after a little thought, daring to love these guys are worried about their positions, a group of official fans! Despise it.
