Kim Yoon-sik, Yu Yun-jung, and Kim Hong-ji are all representative figures of the big faction, in addition to being older, they can all speak fluent Goryeo Mandarin, and they can understand Yuan Weiting's fluent Mandarin.

Yuan Weiting sat up straight and frankly said his thoughts on the three important tasks of Goryeo, "My lords, if the railway police system can be built, in addition to suppressing the bandit gangs against the railway, it will also allow the entire Goryeo to learn about China's police and judicial system. I know that you have always wanted to build a judicial system similar to that of China in Goryeo, and until now there have been people who have been making such proposals, but they have never been able to pass in the Goryeo royal court. You haven't thought about why? ”

The three of them listened to Yuan Weiting's passionate and generous words, and their expressions were very calm. Yuan Weiting is only twenty-five years old this year, and like the young people in Goryeo, he is full of momentum and ambition, and with his words, he is a bastard boy who doesn't know the height of the sky.

Goryeo has been a vassal state of China for thousands of years, although it does not have the deep history of China, as a secondary civilization of Chinese culture, Goryeo is also a civilized country with a history of more than 1,000 years. Yuan Weiting's idea of trying to seize a part of the power did not appear only once or twice in the history of Goryeo. Traditionally, this is called "life"! This is the standard practice of traitorous villains trying to gain more power in their own hands.

Although the three of them were reluctant to immediately contradict, they did not agree with Yuan Shikai. Yuan Weiting didn't seem to see what the three of them were thinking, and he continued with a tough attitude: "This matter is not a question of whether to do it, but how to do it. I invited three respected seniors to come over, just to let the three seniors take responsibility, railway public security, railway procuratorate, railway court, and I also asked the three to choose one of the three positions. ”

Seeing that Yuan Weiting actually started a hard apportionment, the three Goryeo bigwigs finally became a little uneasy. Yu Yunzhong said: "Secretary Yuan, it's not appropriate to do this, right?" ”

"Do you want to hold these three positions?" Yuan Weiting's words went straight to the core.

The three of them were stunned, Yuan Weiting, a reckless boy, spoke a little powerful, and his attitude was even tougher. After exchanging glances with each other, Kim Yun-sik asked, "If we don't want to take up these three positions, what is Secretary Yuan going to do?" ”

Yuan Shikai said to the three of them with an uncompromising smile: "If the three respected seniors are not willing to take up these three positions, I can only settle for the next best thing and find other Goryeo sages in our railway system to take over." If none of the Goryeo sages in the railway system are willing to come out to take up their posts, then we can't say anything, and we can only nominate our Chinese personnel to these three positions. And once elected, I will write a report to His Majesty the Emperor, asking His Majesty the Emperor to determine the candidates by edict. ”

Hearing this, the faces of Kim Yoon-sik, Yu Yoon-jung, and Kim Hong-ji became even more unpleasant. A small party secretary of the Goryeo Railway and Telegraph Corporation actually tried to exert pressure on Goryeo in the name of Emperor Wei Ze. Kim Yoon-sik, Yu Yun-jung, and Kim Hong-ji, all of whom attended the Nanjing Railway Institute, knew that railways, while powerful, were not at all the departments that determined national policy in China.

Jin Hongji said in a mocking tone with an unhappy expression: "I didn't expect Secretary Yuan that you could still listen to the sky." ”

Hearing this, Yuan Shikai smiled heartily, "Haha, although the three of them have been in China for a few years, they don't know anything about Chinese politics at all." The core concept of China's system is to promote the development of productive forces, and the development of productive forces must be coordinated with the social system. His Majesty the Emperor and the party, government, and military all agree with this concept, and as a member of the Liberation Party, I naturally must also agree with the Party's program. The establishment of the railway public, procuratorate, and law is itself an institutional method based on this concept, and I, Yuan Weiting, did not ask His Majesty the Emperor to give me support in my personal name, but my country's system supported my practice. I don't know if the three of you can understand this? ”

Yuan Weiting said it so clearly and clearly, if it is an official of a certain level in the Republic of China, or a member of the Guangfu Party with a certain level of seniority, it must be understood. However, the celebrities of Goryeo can't understand that even if Kim Yoon-sik, Yu Yoon-jung, and Kim Hong-ji are relatively good characters in Goryeo, they have only reached the level where they seem to understand but do not understand. It is not to blame these three people for being backward, the feudal system never takes into account the core outside of feudal power. Over the past 30 years, the Liberation Party has been committed to promoting industrial development, and now it has begun to promote the development of capital operation. The purpose of all this is to promote the development of productive forces. Yuan Weiting's report is not to be heard by the heavens, if Yuan Weiting can't complete the work he should do, the boss will not let him go. When Yuan Weiting needs support in the process of work, of course, the boss will not sit idly by.

Since Yuan Weiting's attitude is so tough, Kim Yun-sik, Yu Yun-jung, and Kim Hong-ji have no intention of compromising immediately, and this conversation ends here. Kim Yun-sik asked, "I'm thinking about it, can Secretary Yuan be given a few days?" ”

Yuan Weiting replied happily: "Three days at most, if I don't get a reply from the three within three days, I can only retreat to the second best place." ”

After seeing off the three of them, Yuan Weiting immediately went to the train station to greet the representatives of the Goryeo Railway Union. These union representatives were all Koreans, and when Yuan Weiting went to inspect various stations in Goryeo, these people knew that Yuan Weiting was now a big man in the Goryeo Railway and Telegraph Corporation. Even if they were not familiar with him, when they saw Secretary Yuan Weiting coming to pick him up in person, the delegates were flattered and bowed and greeted.

Two trade union representatives came to each big station, and one trade union representative came to the ordinary small station. Located on the outskirts of Seoul, the headquarters of the Railway and Telegraph Corporation is a six-story reinforced concrete building that is famous throughout Goryeo. Many trade union representatives came for the first time, and after seeing the building from afar, they were shocked by the magnificent momentum. Walking into the spacious central hall and seeing the huge crystal glass chandelier hanging from the third floor in the central hall, the trade union representatives who had never seen much of the world were dumbfounded. They never imagined that there would be a tall and luxurious decoration like a big tree in the world, and the smooth terrazzo steps, the shiny shaped stainless steel railings, and the polished and delicate walnut staircase handrails made the union representatives who thought that the brand new two-story buildings of the various railway stations were very good.

The meeting was held in the large conference room of the head office, and after standing on the podium and scanning the group of Korean trade union representatives below with sharp eyes, Yuan Weiting said loudly in Goryeo, who is not fluent: "The big guy should know who should pay you, right?" Is there anything you don't know? ”

Many of these Korean trade union representatives did not know that the salaries of the railway and telegraph companies were paid in a queue system, and the Chinese stationmasters, deputy station managers, and accountants personally paid them according to the busy situation of their work. The reason for this was that the Goryeo foreman would withhold the wages of the workers below. Yuan Weiting became famous not only because of the article on the status of His Majesty Wei Ze in Goryeo, but when he was the accountant of the Pyongyang station, he put an end to the exploitation and deprivation of the workers by the foreman by personally paying his salary. Moreover, when Yuan Weiting paid his salary, he also asked a few questions to the Goryeo workers, "Who is paying you?" "Who is the one who does not deduct your wages?" "Who do you rely on for food?" "Who is really nice to you?"

These questions were very effective in helping the Korean workers to understand the current situation and recognize who their food and clothing parents were. Since then, the Koreans who worked on the railroad no longer dared to resist the orders of the railway company. It's not that no one tried to resist, and these former rebels all ended up with getting out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the theft of the railroad last year has cost us a lot, do you know how big it is?" Yuan Weiting asked.

How could the representatives of the trade unions, or the representatives of Goryeo, know how much they have lost, no one dares to say anything. Yuan Weiting changed his words, "You always know how much your salary was deducted, right?" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a buzzing sound in the venue. In the first few years of the Spring Festival, the railway did not say that it would give a year-end bonus, but at least it would pay a double salary. But this year, not to mention the year-end bonus, there is not even a double salary, and the railway only gave them fifty catties of beef and mutton for the New Year. In this part of Goryeo, there is a salary to be paid every month for several years in a row, and this is already a heavenly life. In the countryside, if there is a famine, you will have to go hungry. Even if the landlord did not go hungry, the landlord lacked cash in his hands. Not to mention that the people of the railway company themselves live entirely on these salaries, even the family members of the railway company also live on these salaries. During the Chinese New Year this year, everyone was still counting on being able to add something to the family with the year-end bonus and double salary, and the single boys also hoped to be able to pay the dowry and marry their daughter-in-law with these money. Only gave some beef and mutton for the New Year, which made these people's dreams go up in vain.

Hearing Yuan Weiting's question, these trade union representatives who originally didn't dare to speak finally couldn't help but speak. Yuan Weiting slapped the table a few times in a row, and the large conference room was quiet again. Yuan Weiting said loudly: "I tell you now, what is lost on the railway is not enough to compensate for everyone's salary throughout the year!" ”

Everyone almost gasped, this number is really scary!

Yuan Weiting's sharp eyes glanced at the trade union representatives again, and he shouted: "Now we just don't pay the year-end bonus, if this situation can't be changed, we can only deduct everyone's wages next!" ”
