With Feng Yuxiang's approval, people who are familiar with him have begun to relax, some of them are flexible, and even thinking about whether to take this opportunity to get some benefits, now the situation in the whole of China, the end of the Qing court has been fully revealed, and it will not last for a few years, Baotou is now prosperous, but the pattern is still a little smaller, and the location is a little more remote, if you can go deeper, you may not be able to go further.

Yang Yuanzhao smiled bitterly, yes, now Baotou's strength can be expanded, but after the expansion, Baotou has expanded from the surrounding to a part of Shanxi, a part of Mongolia and a part of Hebei, such a huge territory, it needs to be digested slowly, China is too big, Yang Yuanzhao's vision is very clear, the current world pattern, not to fight down, need to govern, need to develop, Baotou must lay its own foundation, before it can think of anything else, the key is the big war 4 years later, You have to seize your chances.

"This is determined by their military experts, and now let's discuss how to deal with this matter, and whether to let the workers know!"

"Of course, I can't know, once I know, Beiyang's murderous reputation is outside, maybe there will be big problems."

There are different opinions, there are all kinds of things to say, but they all tend to hide, to be honest, with the management of Baotou, it should not be too difficult to hide these, but Yang Yuanzhao thought about it for a while, and still said: "Okay, I believe that these workers, they are all trained by us, in their most difficult moments, we let them get the job, dignified or, Baotou, not ours alone." It's the entire people of Baotou, the workers, peasants, and entrepreneurs, so I decided. Disclose this matter to everyone. ”

"Public?" A Jin merchant said with a little panic: "It's too hasty, isn't it? ”

"It's okay, tomorrow at eight o'clock in the morning, all the factories in Baotou will be temporarily closed, and all the workers, in the factory, will be gathered. I make this matter public, the right to choose, the people who belong to it, and the people who choose, we will do what they want. ”

"But."

"Alright. My attention has been decided. ”

Yang Yuanzhao made a decision stubbornly, and the others hesitated, but they didn't say anything, if you say, in the whole Baotou, who has the most wealth, then there is no doubt that it is Yang Yuanzhao. Yang Yuanzhao has intervened in many industries with the help of opportunities and investment. Once Baotou loses here, the biggest one is still him.

Others, including many families, have recouped many of their investments and continue to invest. But it's just dividends, the history of Jin merchants. So that they don't put things in one basket, but Jiang Baili. Some understand Yang Yuanzhao's approach, Baotou is no better than other places, there are ignorant farmers everywhere, most of the citizens of Baotou know more than 500 commonly used Chinese characters, you can read books and newspapers freely, some patriotism, and basic ideas, in education, imperceptibly spread, what strategy is the most terrible, not what is a conspiracy, not a trick, is a yang conspiracy, with a dignified and upright teacher to face the confrontation, this is impeccable, any conspiracy, when it is exposed, Even when he is seen through, it is when he is the weakest, but if he is honest and honest, unless he defeats the other party head-on, there is no way to follow, and those who are good at fighting have no great achievements, and this is what he is talking about.

Baotou's military strength, others don't know, but Feng Yuxiang, including several military officers, including the three heroes who came later, know very well that now, the military academy is already being built, but with Jiang Baili and some experts he invited, plus foreign teachers hired from outside, they are already in place, and most of the officers of the new army have entered the military academy according to different levels, and have received a month, half a month, a week, and so on, and there is special targeted training.

The new officers and non-commissioned officers have also undergone almost 10 months of systematic training, in China's standards, this is already a qualified officer, on this basis, the military academy is facing the whole country, recruiting more than 3,200 students, of which can only hold the position of company platoon commander, Baotou's army, the possibility of expansion, as long as you wait for a year or two, when the first batch of students graduate, Baotou expansion is definitely the world's attention.

The production of military factories, starting from the beginning of the 100,000 people all redressed, has not stopped, estimated, conservatively speaking, at least 5 divisions of weapons will be produced in two or three months, in this way, as long as enough personnel are recruited, after a week or two of assault training, Baotou will have more troops, in addition, in the past two years in Baotou, has not stopped the construction of some semi-permanent military fortresses, with Baotou's developed traffic environment, stubbornly waiting, not to mention only two towns, Even if the six towns of Beiyang are all here, they may not be able to gain the upper hand.

In Jiang Baili's view, Yang Yuanzhao is already invincible, and what he has done can be understood, that is, to grasp the hearts of the people, so that the entire Baotou, close to 3 million people, and tens of millions of people in the surrounding sphere of influence, understand what they are for, not for the so-called Qing government, but for China, the road of industrial salvation, countless people have walked, countless people have failed, but Baotou has succeeded.

Next, needless to say, the army is ready, the internal guard troops control all the main roads in Baotou, and martial law has begun on the streets, and at this critical moment, no one wants anything to affect Baotou.

Early the next morning, the workers who had just gone to work, as well as the workers who had already left work and were about to go home, were left behind and ready to listen to the radio collectively.

Radio, just a megaphone and a tweeter, tweeter, after it was invented, it was installed in a conspicuous position in every factory and community, occasionally putting a little song, or announcing something, but like this, Baotou's full cloth listened to the radio, this is the first time.

What is going on, there are workers whispering to each other, but no one knows, they came to Baotou, live a comfortable life, complete the work every day, can ensure that the family, live and work in peace and contentment, no exploitation, no oppression, occasionally a little conflict, Baotou side of the court, will also be reasonable and impartial, it can be said that for many people, coming to Baotou for the past two years, can be said to be the most comfortable day, they countless times hope, this kind of day will go on forever.

At 8 o'clock, a voice came from the loudspeaker: Brothers workers, citizens of Baotou, I am Yang Yuanzhao.

Yang Yuanzhao, this in Baotou, everyone knows the name, the founder of Baotou, the source of their happy life, it is precisely because of his existence that the whole Baotou is today, it is precisely because of his leadership that the whole Baotou has such a stable environment, the minimum wage for workers, housing security, living allowance, a qiē, so that Baotou has become completely different from other places, for him, all the workers have just thanks, they are slightly surprised, why Yang Yuanzhao can speak, what happened.

At this moment, Yang Yuanzhao was sitting in the position of the announcer in the radio tower, and said slowly in a calm tone: "The development of Baotou is inseparable from everyone, it can be said that the entire Baotou is created with the efforts of all our personnel, but now, this beautiful day will no longer exist." ”

What, everyone's hearts are tight, if it weren't for the factory managers to maintain discipline, I'm afraid the whole scene would be chaotic, people who have suffered, especially millions of people from other places, they have left their homes, if it weren't for the help of Baotou, most of them, will die on the road, now most of them have become real workers, their monthly income, most of them are more than 30 yuan, which was unimaginable before, a hundred acres of landlords, I'm afraid of a year's income, It will not exceed 200 silver dollars, they have done it, many people have brought a family, even relatives and friends, among the personnel here in Baotou, outsiders have become one of the largest parts of the entire Baotou, even more than the original Shanxi people, more than a lot.

Yang Yuanzhao's words continued: "Our Baotou is built on the Northwest Plateau, relying on our hands and feet, without any government help, but now, the Qing government wants to impose on our heads, requiring us to pay a special tax of 60 million yuan, which is the wealth of our Baotou people, our own things, we have to rely on ourselves to protect, anyone takes him, how can we treat him." ”

"Fight back, fight back, we Baotou must be independent."

The crazy roar almost resounded throughout Baotou, all the workers, factory owners, and even some merchants were excited, Baotou was like their home, the teachers taught them things, their own home, to rely on their own protection, for Baotou's tomorrow, they are willing to pay a qiē.

"Okay, what everyone means, I understand, we will set up a ballot box in every factory, community, every citizen of Baotou is qualified to cast your sacred vote, decide, whether to be independent, as long as the support occupies seventy percent, we will directly report independence, I believe everyone will make your choice."

Yang Yuanzhao ended the broadcast, and there was a burst of applause around him, in fact, the changes in the entire city were under his control, and even the people's voices like mountains could be heard from afar, now, the only thing needed was to wait, wait for the results of the referendum, and the personnel of several major families looked at Yang Yuanzhao with some awe, I don't know when it started, Yang Yuanzhao has carried such a huge number of people's hearts, it can be said that in the eyes of the people, he is a god-like being, that kind of fanaticism like religious belief, which is shocking.
