The second shift arrived, and there were two shifts in the early morning!

This week, the brothers are also very powerful, although the first place on the new book list is gone, but I finally won a second, this week's side dish update should be very powerful! There were also two outbreaks of 10,000 words under severe speeding.

A new week is coming, and it's time to hit the charts again! I hope that the brothers can continue to give strength in the new week.

Thank you Zihua indifferent and Lin Fanchen for their tips!

――――

Winter has arrived, the temperature has suddenly cooled down, and it has snowed in some places, and Xia Jun's infiltration into various parts of Fujian has also accelerated, and he asked the directors of the autonomous regions to speed up the progress of their work, and more than 95 percent of the townships and towns must be included in the administrative area by February.

Under such orders, the various regions increased their infiltration, and the reason why the work did not go well in the previous months was mainly because of the differences in dialects, which led to the fact that the work was not carried out very well, but when the local people from each region were absorbed, the speed of the work suddenly increased a lot.

More and more townships have declared autonomy, and those townships that refuse to be autonomous have also been included in the special work list, and after studying who is in the resistance, some scouts will be lined up to do ideological work for him.

This method has been very effective, and those stubborn townships and towns that do not enter the autonomy have also joined the ranks of autonomy one after another.

Most of the townships were willing to be self-governing, after all, they could be exempted from taxes and receive high-yield crops, and there were only a few die-hard elements of the Qing court.

At this time, Xia Jun's control of Fujian is a foregone conclusion, and those with a little vision can see it.

The Qing court was not unaware of the behavior of this group of autonomy people in Fujian, but it was difficult to do anything for a while, and they did not openly oppose the Qing.

However, because Xia Jun imposed tariffs in Fujian, goods from various countries could not circulate normally in Fujian, which caused the US government to ask whether the Qing court had the ability to stabilize the Fujian market.

The Qing court had no countermeasure to this, but ordered the autonomy party to stop the collection of customs duties by telegram.

Xia Jun was indifferent to this, and still vigorously engaged in tariff protection in Fujian, but in order to prevent hostility with the United States as much as possible, Xia Jun sent an invitation to the US Minister in Xiamen, Mo Doma, to visit the United States in early December.

Mo Doma received an invitation letter from Xia Jun in Xiamen and quickly agreed to the invitation.

As a minister, it is natural that he should have some understanding of the forces in the area in charge, and the invitation extended to him by the Fujian Autonomy Party is also a sign of goodwill, and perhaps the tariffs imposed by the Autonomy Party members can be abolished. Moreover, Modoma feels that the strength of this group of autonomins is not bad, and it is possible to make a difference in China in the future.

At this time, Xia Jun had already built an arsenal with an annual output of 100 million rounds of bullets in Jian'an, and the bullets produced by the miniature arsenal were easy to jam, but they could be used in training, so Xia Jun expanded the scale of production.

The bullet aspect is a problem that Xia Jun is determined to solve, because when he was training the army and militia, he never wanted to be stingy with bullets, anyway, there was an exchange platform, so why be stingy with that little bullet.

As long as there is enough bullet for training, the soldier's marksmanship will steadily improve, and at the same time, the militia has enough bullet training to train excellent soldiers.

Anyway, these bullets are only used for training, and it doesn't matter if they are jammed, as long as the military industry can keep running, the quality of the bullets produced will be higher and higher.

Due to Xia Jun's annexation of the Restoration Society, a steady stream of teachers and students came to Jian'an at this time, and Tao Chengzhang and Liu Yazi also developed members of the Restoration Society in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

There is also a legitimate reason why the two of them were transferred to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, after all, their original scope of activities was there, and at the same time, Xia Jun firmly controlled the Baath Party.

In this era, it is impossible to say that there is no struggle for power and profit, and Xia Jun is no exception, he must consolidate his position and prevent internal problems.

Xia Jun spent 10 million points on the production of bullets, and all the bullets were made of steel cores and steel shells, after all, China lacks copper, and steel also saves costs.

Xia Jun had 27 million points in his hands before, and with the people's income reaching 18 million in November, Xia Jun still had 35 million points in his hands at this time.

Although this point seems to be a lot, when it comes to the military industry, science and technology, and some major projects, it seems very few.

For example, there is an ultimate project in the engineering column -- the Yellow River Ecological Project.

The project, which costs 50 billion points, is to build a dam on the Loess Plateau, fill in the ravines of the Loess Plateau, restore vegetation on the plateau, and have a freshwater irrigation system.

In addition, there is a desert control project, the project plan is to transfer seawater from the Bohai Sea to the desert area, although the water is salty, but as long as there is water, it can form a tenacious ecosystem, just like the Qinghai area, which is also a project that requires tens of billions of points.

For Xia Jun, these projects are still far away, and they are obviously not the current problems that need to be solved, but the problems he needs to solve in the military industry.

On December 8, the U.S. Minister to Xiamen, Mo Duoma, came to Jian'an County with his wife at the invitation of Xia Jun.

Although the minister is one level lower than the ambassador, he also has an impact on the country's policy, which is why Xia Jun invited Modoma to visit.

When Mo Doma came to Jian'an County, he saw a China that was very different from his impression.

In his impression, China is a very backward and poor country, but here in Jian'an is different, people here are wearing Hanfu, construction is happening everywhere, and those construction machinery looks very advanced, even in the United States.

What's even more different is the soldiers and civilians here, the soldiers you see at the checkpoints on the road are all wearing uniform uniforms, holding uniform weapons, these soldiers are very well equipped, and even wear a helmet on their heads.

Although the people still seem to be a little malnourished, they are much better than other regions, and most of the clothes are new, and many people wear uniform cotton jackets. This cotton jacket is produced by a textile factory and is used to relieve poor households, after all, winter is coming, and people can't be frozen, right?

Mo Doma couldn't help but see something, when he arrived in Jian'an, Xia Jun led people to warmly welcome Mo Doma's visit, but compared to when he welcomed Tao Chengzhang, the lineup was reduced by more than half.

When Modoma arrived in Shuixi, he was even more surprised, because he saw the wide streets and the neatly arranged concrete buildings, all of which were brand new and looked very beautiful.

Due to the large amount of land on the west side of Shuixi, the streets are planned to be wide, and after months of construction, some buildings have been built here, but the scale is not too large.

Xia Jun shook hands with Mo Doma who got out of the car, and then welcomed him into the guest house.

The guest house is on the edge of the central building, and the facilities inside are relatively high-end, which Xia Jun is specially used to receive important guests.

The dishes are very rich, all kinds of big fish and meat, all of which are characteristic Chinese dishes, and Mo Doma has also been in Xiamen for nearly two years, so he obviously eats Chinese food.

"I am very grateful to Mr. Modoma for coming to visit, it is a dish that we have prepared with great care." Xia Jun introduced these dishes to Modoma, but asked the translator to translate them, and his English was not very good.

“good。” Modoma took a few bites of his knife and fork and couldn't help but admire.

The dinner lasted relatively harmoniously, and the two sides did not mention the issue of tariffs, and after the meal, Xia Jun took Mo Doma to visit the military camp.

If you want to talk to the Yankees, you must first show enough strength, if there are two or three forces of cats and dogs want to talk to others, it is basically impossible, without strength, there will be no prospects, let alone bring them any benefits.

However, Xia Jun will not fully reveal his strength, so he has hidden all kinds of new weapons and vehicles, and the army has replaced it with Mauser rifles.

The Mauser rifle is also a weapon used by the armed police and sentries now, and the weapons of the Fujian First Division are unknown to outsiders, because the barracks of the First Division are under martial law.
