Chapter 65: Machine!
As soon as he heard this, Wang Hengyue immediately understood what he was going to say, and waved his hand again and again:
"Mr. Xiong, if you want to ask your brother to help you do something, don't talk about it!"
Xiong Kewu stared at Wang Hengyue: "The Manchu Qing Dynasty occupied our Han people's country, slaughtered the Han people, and expropriated the people internally, which was cruel and unreasonable; Groveling to the outside world and doing his best to be a slave, is such a court king still ready to protect it to the end? β
Wang Hengyue didn't care: "Mr. Xiong, although I sympathize with you, I have never approved of your work process, so if I want to do it in your way, I don't need to think about it." As for this imperial court, it occupies my country, kills my people, is cruel internally, and bends its knees externally, so it's good, Mr. Xiong."
As he spoke, he stood up: "You have your way of doing things, and brothers have your ways of doing things. In a word, I don't arrest you revolutionaries, you must have the help of brothers, such as those who are missing entanglements or something, and the brothers will not look back. But brother also has to ask you for one thing, this Rong County is stationed by brothers, and please Mr. Xiong don't embarrass brothers here. β
Xiong Kewu didn't understand this gang more and more.
Judging from what he said, he sympathized with the revolutionary party and was even willing to help the revolutionary party in some things, but he refused to do things with the revolutionary party.
Wang Hengyue could not be more familiar with these revolutionary parties and the course of history. No matter how many uprisings the revolutionary party launched during these two years, there was absolutely no chance of success, and only sacrifices were made in vain.
Instead of this, it is better to seize this time and develop yourself as soon as possible!
Someone has a gun in his hand, and his power has grown, and when the day comes when the city changes the king's flag, he will have the ability to speak and do things!
Xiong Kewu was silent for a while: "Since Wang Bang has other ambitions, Kewu doesn't dare to force it." May I ask what the king wants to do with Kewu? β
"I said, I won't arrest you, and when it is night, I will send Mr. Xiong out of Rong County." When Wang Hengyue said this, he suddenly asked: "If my brother guesses correctly, Mr. Xiong still has to organize a riot, right?" β
"Exactly!" Xiong Kewu said without hesitation: "As long as Kewu still has a breath, the incident will never stop!" β
Wang Hengyue nodded: "Mr. Xiong is arrogant, Hengyue will no longer persuade him, please rest in the barracks for the time being, and Mr. Hengyue will go out at night." β
Xiong Kewu thanked him and walked out gratefully.
This time, Wang Hengyue was officially acquainted with Xiong Kewu and saved his life. At present, although Xiong Kewu is a wanted criminal, he is not a big man, but what Xiong Kewu will be like in the future, Wang Hengyue knows very well in his heart.
Xiong Kewu only left on his front foot, and Yu Lei, who was still recuperating from his injuries, hurriedly walked in: "My lord, are you really going to let go of that revolutionary party?" β
"What a revolutionary party, but a businessman." Wang Hengyue said lightly.
Yu Lei quickly understood what he meant, and muttered slightly: "Those revolutionaries have always been friendly with the people of the Elders' Association, and if you want to completely gain a foothold, it doesn't hurt to do so. It's just that those spies of the imperial court in my Rong County must not let them leak some news! β
Wang Hengyue pointed his finger on the table, and after a while, he pushed Xiong Kewu's gun down: "The revolutionary party is really rampant, it actually shot and killed the imperial court spies in my Rong County, and this gang will not be spared!" β
Yu Lei smiled and took the gun: "Let's do it."
Xiong Kewu left, and the two spies in Rong County were also killed by the revolutionary party. This provoked the Wang Gang to lead Thunder to be furious, reprimanded his subordinates, and at the same time ordered a large-scale arrest in Rong County, making sure to catch the perpetrators.
It's just that those revolutionary parties are too powerful, and assassination has always been their forte, and they can't catch anyone when they are caught, and after waiting for a few days, Wang Bangdao will no longer ask about this matter.
The revolutionary party rioted everywhere, Zhao Erfeng and a group of Sichuan officials were busy, calming down the uprising everywhere, and there was no mind to take care of those things in the local area, which gave Wang Hengyue a great opportunity.
Governor Zhao had already approved the opening of the Machinery Bureau, but this money made Wang Hengyue very troubled.
was worried about the silver there, but Charlie Du suddenly came to Rong County.
Wang Hengyue has always known that Charlie Du is famous for being unprofitable and unprofitable, and he has worked tirelessly to come to Rong County from Chengdu, and there must be something to buy and sell.
Inviting Charlie Du to the barracks, Charlie Du praised Wang Hengyue for how great he was, how capable he was, and how he made himself feel glorious in counterinsurgency in Tibetan Province.
After a long time, Wang Hengyue couldn't help it: "Manager Du came to me this time, do you want to take care of me?" β
βyesοΌβ Charlie Du came up with another foreign sentence: "The last time I went to Chengdu, I said that I wanted to build a small arsenal, which is okay for others, but what you said, I will help no matter what." The brother has been paying attention to it for a while, and it is a coincidence that he really has some eyebrows. β
When Wang Hengyue heard this, he was overjoyed. Charlie Du said unhurriedly: "I think I also know about the Sichuan Manufacturing Bureau opened by Ding Baozhen Ding, right?" β
Wang Hengyue nodded.
After Ding Baozhen took over as the governor of Sichuan, he immediately set up the Sichuan Machinery Bureau, the site of which was selected in Lianchi, southeast of Chengdu, to recruit hundreds of technicians and workers, and the main machinery and equipment were sent to Shanghai and other places to purchase, and the rest of the machinery and facilities were designed and manufactured by Zeng Zhaoji, who was in charge of engineering technology. In that year, the plant was completed and put into production. After more than a year of operation, it has produced water turbines and various machines, and produced weapons such as breech guns, and the production has begun to take shape. Later, due to the opposition of the stubborn conservative forces, the business was closed for a time. In 1880, the business was reopened and expanded, and it was able to produce not only machines and guns, but also bullets and gunpowder. In 1896, Ding Baozhen died of illness, and the Sichuan Machinery Bureau began to become unstable after several setbacks.
The Sichuan Machinery Bureau founded by Ding Baozhen is very famous. During Ding Baozhen's tenure as governor of Sichuan, the Sichuan Machinery Bureau manufactured more than 14,900 foreign guns of various types, of which more than 7,000 were allocated to the border defense areas of Yunnan and Guangxi, as well as for the guns that Bao Chao led his troops to enter Yunnan to aid Vietnam to resist France.
Charlie Du suddenly talked about the Sichuan Machinery Bureau founded by Ding Baozhen, and Wang Hengyue was attentive.
Charlie Du's face was pale: "There are a few machines in the Sichuan Machinery Bureau, I don't know if you are interested?" β
When Wang Hengyue heard this, he was dumbfounded, Charlie Du actually had a way to get this machine from the Sichuan Machinery Bureau?
Before Wang Hengyue could speak, Charlie Du had already followed up and said: "Actually, these machines are not very bright to talk about!" β
