Chapter Ninety-Five: Make Up Your Mind
The subtitle of this chapter: Who can stop the big car of history?
…………………………
"Mr. Ziyi......"
"Major Cao is polite, it's better to be commensurate with our brothers."
"It's better to be respectful than to obey. That's good, Brother Ziyi, sister-in-law Li, junior brother will give you a glass first. ”
Cao Linsheng was like a fan of an idol, and he was very excited. Our Master Yuan, on the other hand, looked much calmer, but he had a smile on his face and an idea in his heart.
Fan Cao put down his wine glass and asked excitedly: "Brother Ziyi, my colleagues from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs told you about your deeds very well, what happened back then?" ”
"It's not worth mentioning." Li Jie smiled bitterly and said, "And it's a long story......
"Oh, no matter how long it is, it has to be said." Yuan Yan smiled and joked, "Fifth brother, you have been hiding from me for so long, now you have to get to the bottom of it." ”
The fifth brother of the red flag had no choice, put down the chopsticks and wiped his mouth and said: "Since this is the case, then the foolish brother will talk about it......"
"Chief Huang treated me well, and the Southern Army was about to be disbanded at that time. He also found me a position, which kind of gave me a place to stay......"
Master Yuan secretly said in his heart that Huang Keqiang really has no shortcomings except that he can't fight.
"Mr. Sun...... Mr. Sun is naturally in a commendable spirit, and the spirit of the 100,000-mile railway project in 10 years is very commendable......"
Yuan Yanqian understood, and this bridge expert didn't seem to be very eager to see Sun Dacang coming.
"Teacher Du's kung fu is really nothing, a punch...... Just one punch! He beat me out a foot away, my chest was tight, and I gasped for several breaths before I could recover my strength. ”
Xiao Yuan knew that Du Xinwu and Zhanzhao were the same as the Southern Heroes of the "North and South", by the way, the Northern Heroes were not Ouyang Chun but Liu Baichuan. In 1907, Du Xinwu and Ju Zheng "attacked" Liang Qichao, who was giving a speech, with paper-wrapped peanuts in Tokyo, Japan, and let him flee.
Du Xinwu served as the bodyguard of Sun and Song, and after Song Jiaoren was assassinated, he abandoned his official position and wandered the rivers and lakes, becoming the "double dragon head" of the green and red gangs.
It seems that this Teacher Du is really good at kung fu.
"President and President Zhu are both people who want to do things and can do things, and they also take good care of me, a small fellow countryman, and later ...... Ay! Hong Xian's matter, the elder brother doesn't know what to say. ”
Zhu's name was Zhu Qichao (1872-1964). He is the confidant and backbone of President Yuan Da and one of the "Thirteen Taibao". Of course, what "Thirteen Taibao" and what "Six Gentlemen of Chip'an" After Lao Yuan became emperor, everyone shouted and beat him, and his reputation was infamous.
However, this "imperial culprit" is indeed a capable person, he served as the chief of the interior and the chief of transportation of the Yuan cabinet, and was involved in the railway industry for about five or six years, and was one of the important members of the old transportation department.
"Originally, my brother and I wanted to follow Zhan Gong and Kuang Gong, and it was enough to build a few more miles of railways and bridges in my lifetime. It's too much to hate the surname Qi, and the revenge of killing my father is not shared, and I have to avenge this revenge! ”
Zhan Gong is naturally Zhan Tianyou, and Kuang Gong's name is Kuang Sunmou, he is also a young child in the United States, a famous railway engineer at that time.
The enemy surnamed Qi was Qi Yaolin, who became the governor of Henan in December 1911 after Yuan's comeback because of his close relationship with Yuan Shikai. When Lao Yuan was proclaimed emperor, he was awarded the title of first-class uncle.
This is exactly what it is: gossip and gossip, talk about Li Dayang under Funiu Mountain.
This Li Da is good-looking. Playing with swords and plum blossom piles, lifting pens and building bridges in the foreign school. The pharmacy is a thousand acres in the east, and he married a pretty woman who was a childhood sweetheart.
This Li Da, the revolutionary party. The wind and clouds in front of the Yellow Crane Tower left home with his wife to go to Wuchang. The Three People's Principles leveled the right to land and eliminated the account of the king of Hades from his own family.
This Li Da, go back to his hometown. has his own villain ripping off the bamboo, and his father was wronged and went to prison. The hero was not pickled and slaughtered the governor's uncle.
This Li Da entered the court room. The future was originally very brilliant, but Yijun came and his father died. killed the earl at night during the Lantern Festival and became Guan Yunchang, who rode alone for thousands of miles
Woo in the pan, the story is on the top, talk about how Li Dayang came to Anliangtang!
"Wonderful...... It's really exciting! Cao Linsheng stroked his palms and sighed, "Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles!" ”
"Happy...... It's really a pleasure! Yuan Yanqian raised his glass and praised, "This matter can be drunk, and it should be revealed!" ”
"The ...... in charge" Even the fourth sister of Jin Feng, who recalled the events of the year, was a little touched in her heart, and couldn't help but tremble.
Li Jie simply picked up the wine glass and said one word: "Dry!" ”
Our Master Yuan originally had nothing to do with this Red Flag Fifth Brother, but now he has made up his mind, it would be a waste for this kind of talent to stay in the United States, of course, we must find a way to let them return to China as soon as possible.
It's just that after mentioning it to them last time, there has been no response. Not only that, but the business they have partnered with seems to be getting better and bigger.
What a hell, it's a trouble for your business to be so good......
Yuan Yanqian's heart moved, and when it came to business being too good, this was not only my trouble, but also the couple's trouble.
How could the rumors of Chinatown escape his ears and eyes, even if the Pinkerton office couldn't get the news there, wouldn't there be a six-fingered piano demon? What's more, someone in An Liangtang had already wanted to skip Li Jie to meet him, but Master Yuan was too troublesome to deal with the characters in the rivers and lakes, so he excused himself for being too busy.
Thinking of this, he patiently ate the meal with three guests.
After he drank the white fungus lotus seed soup that Sister Lian gave at the end, he asked straightforwardly: "Fifth brother and fourth sister, Ming people don't say dark things." Mr. and Mrs. Xian came to my younger brother today, but do you have any advice? ”
"Brother Hong, don't dare to give advice. It's just ......"
Li Jie and his wife were stunned when they heard this. The fifth red flag glanced at Major Cao Linsheng, his face was a little embarrassed, and he spit out what he said.
Major Cao, who was also from Lingyuan, immediately realized something.
But when he was about to confess and avoid it, Yuan Yanqian didn't want to let him go, but waved his hand and said: "Don't be so careful, we are doing a righteous and bright business." What's more, Brother Qingzhi is not only a good friend of mine, but he is about to return to China. It doesn't hurt to listen to it. ”
Master Yuan turned his head and said, "Brother Qingzhi, I don't think you will talk nonsense, right?" ”
Cao Linsheng thought he was being polite, so he still refused: "Brother Hongji, I think ......."
However, Yuan Yanqian interrupted very firmly: "You don't need to see what I see, it's just a small business." ”
He turned his head again and said, "Fifth brother and fourth sister, let's finish the matter in a refreshing way first, and then go and play four times happily." ”
The couple exchanged glances, and finally told the story.
"Hehe......" Master Yuan chuckled a few times and said, "Little brother thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be such a thing......"
He picked up the dessert that stirred the spoon and said in a deep voice: "There are thirty-six gold chairs and seventy-two silver chairs in the Zhongyi Hall. As long as you can get to Liangshan, you can have a place. Where can the Hongmen brothers refuse the Hongmen brothers? ”
Yuan Yanqian took a sip of the white fungus lotus seed soup and said: "Since they are all Hongmen's own brothers, those uncles and uncles want to intervene, let them intervene." ”
Finally, he wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "Besides, if our business wants to go outside of New York, if we don't rely on the brothers of Anliang Headquarters, who else can we rely on?" ”
Without waiting for Li Jie to speak, Mrs. Li preemptively said: "Second master, that's what I said, but the old Li of these two companies is very powerful." Second master, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge......"
Hearing what the fourth sister of Jin Feng said, the second master of the sage had not opened his mouth to refute, and the fifth brother of the red flag immediately "reprimanded": "Stop, how did you talk to the second master?" ”
He hurriedly apologized, and said with a smile: "Mr. Yuan, a woman's hair is long and her knowledge is short, don't be like her." ”
has changed from "Brother Hongji" to "Mr. Yuan", and our Master Yuan naturally knows that the couple is full of unhappiness.
But it was not pleasant for him to cross over to his great-great-uncle and grandfather.
Our Master Yuan is not a boy who scatters wealth, but a desperate life...... Well, neoclassical liberal masters who act according to the laws of capitalist social economy.
It's okay to say that Baisui Shan and can't make a few dollars, but now that they have made money, then these two companies will naturally play a more important role, and it is too wasteful to use them to envelop this big fifth brother of Hongqi.
"Hahaha......" Yuan Yanqian habitually looked up to the sky and smiled, thinking about what to say next.
After half a ring, he stopped laughing and said calmly: "Mr. Li, Mrs. Zun didn't say anything wrong, the younger brother is indeed crossing the river and demolishing the bridge......"
As soon as these words came out, not to mention the Li couple, even Cao Linsheng on the side showed a stunned expression.
Could it be that this second master of Nintendo is so unbearable? But even if you want to cross the river and tear down the bridge, this attitude is too arrogant, right?
But I heard Master Yuan continue: "What the junior brother is demolishing now is just a single-plank bridge, and I have to point out a Yangguan Road to you, brother!" ”
"Sai Xiaoyi" The handsome face also became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yuan, isn't the 'Yangguan Dao' you said ......?"
He glanced at Cao Linsheng again, but he didn't stop saying, "Arms smuggling!" ”
Yuan Yanqian also smiled at Major Cao, who had a strange face, turned his head to look directly at Li Jie and said, "That's right, this is the deal!" ”
"In this Citigroup country, how can selling wine and books compare to going to our China to sell guns?!"
"Mr. Li, you also know that if it weren't for the arms embargo imposed by the great powers against China, the price of firearms in China would not be much higher. After this village, there really isn't such a shop. ”
Fourth Sister Jin Feng suddenly said with tears in her eyes: "Mr. Yuan, can't you do a good job and let our couple eat a meal in this Citigroup country?" ”
"Hehehe......" Our Master Yuan was not moved at all, but let out a laugh full of irony.
He sneered and said, "Mrs. Li, you are the fourth master of our Hongmen Qianshan Jinfeng......
In fact, the official title of the fourth sister of Jin Feng in Hongmen is "Four Masters", which shows how much Hongmen is...... Well, men and women are equal.
"You are a heroine who is happy to take revenge and slash the enemy, and you are a woman who suppresses the group of females and forces the good to be ...... Well, that Flower Country Ruler! ”
"What are you talking about with your little brother, don't you seem to be angry?"
Yuan Yan said in her heart, what are you forcing Liang to do, and I am forcing you to do this, it's really a bit ironic to think about it.
"Mr. and Mrs. Xian must remember what the younger brother said last time, right? Now there are guns, boats, and doorways. This big deal is everything in place, only the east wind is owed, that is, there is one less big shopkeeper on the Chinese side. ”
"Mr. Li, now that it's time for you to give a happy word, to go or not to go?"
The fourth sister of Jin Feng and Major Cao at the dinner table couldn't help but focus their eyes on Li Jie and Li Ziyi's faces.
And at this moment, the fifth brother of Hongqi thought of the past events after he and this Second Master Yuan met. The wonderful things and miracles done by the other party reminded him of the two old people.
This guy is as eloquent as the one in the south, but he seems to have more ability and vision. Compared to the one in the north, although he is too young, he can also be called scheming. Merely......
It's just that is this son a hero for the country and the people or a hero who does his own thing?
"Sai Xiaoyi" pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "Since Mr. Yuan has said everything about this. Then my brother has to ask a question, does Your Excellency just want me to help you smuggle arms? ”
"Hahaha...... It is good question" Master Yuan laughed and stood up, "Of course not!" ”
He stretched out his hand and said, "Since the meal is finished, then please go to the younger brother's study to talk." ”
Mr. and Mrs. Li glanced at each other and left their seats.
"Brother Qingzhi." Yuan Yanqian suddenly smiled and invited, "Are you coming?" ”
"Me?" Cao Linsheng was stunned when he heard this. With a good family background and a good future, he doesn't want to follow him into this troubled water.
To put it bluntly, why would he, a high-level intellectual who graduated from West Point, smuggle arms with gangsters?
Major Cao just wanted to shake his head and refuse, but when he saw Master Yuan's face that seemed to be smiling, he nodded like a ghost.
Yuan Yanqian led the three of them into his study and locked the door. But instead of letting them sit down, he pulled out a drawing from the bookshelf and spread it out on his desk.
"Boom la la ......"
"Look, everyone!"
The three of them looked at it, and it turned out to be an ordinary map of China, and the place he pointed to was the hometown of the Li couple, Lushan County. That is, Pingdingshan City, Henan Province in later generations.
"Mr. Li, Mrs. Li, your Li family and Zhang family are local county leaders, even if they have been away for ten years, but I think as long as you have money and guns, it is not difficult to pull up a small team in the local area, right?"
Li Jie smiled bitterly: "Mr. Yuan, not to mention pulling up a small team in our place, it is not difficult to pull up a big team." Wasn't that the white wolf like that back then? But isn't he finished in the end? ”
Mrs. Li frowned and said, "The master is right. We have nothing but poor sticks in that place. What's the use of you asking us to make a regiment there? ”
This time, even Major Cao chimed in: "Brother Hongji, since ancient times, the Central Plains has been the land of four wars, and the current situation may not be able to say when the north and south will fight again, what use can a small team come in at that time?" ”
"Yes, of course it works." Yuan Yanqian said undiscouragedly, "Mr. Li, as long as you can pull up a capable small team." I promise it won't be long...... Well, a little bit in the early two years at most......"
"You can become a big hero known at home and abroad!"
"Big hero?!"
The three of them gasped at the same time, unbelievably authentic.
"Yes, big hero." Behind Master Yuan's hand, he said lightly, "Mr. Li Jie, you will either die old in Citigroup, which is thousands of miles away, or go back to China to see if you can be a trendsetter in the big era." ”
"Please make up your mind......"
