The fifth section is difficult for Yuan Shikai

Indeed, as Yang Chao thought, Yuan Shikai received a report from Gaomizhi County, and immediately made arrangements, instructing the prefectures and counties along the way to do a good job in reception and protect the safety of Yang Chao and his party. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The reason why he did this was first out of attention, and secondly out of doubt, like the prefect and county along the way, Yuan Shikai was also very confused by Yang Chao, a Chinese who suddenly appeared and claimed to help the governor of Qingdao deal with private affairs, because he could not find out the details, and he did not dare to be careless if he could not find out the details.

And Yuan Shikai did much more than Gao Mizhi County and others, he even sent someone to Qingdao to inquire, and confirmed that Yang Chao was indeed a general interpreter, and it was a general interpreter who had just come to Qingdao.

After some inquiry, Yuan Shikai's confusion did not decrease, but increased, how did a Chinese who returned from overseas suddenly get the weight of the governor, and he was still sitting in the governor's carriage, and there were German soldiers escorting him to find him?

couldn't figure out the situation, and didn't even know the real purpose of the other party's coming, Yuan Shikai found that he really couldn't do anything other than to receive him well.

Fortunately, it is finally here, and the doubts in Yuan Shikai's heart are about to be solved.

Yuan Shikai is much stronger than ordinary prefects and prefects, and he has come into contact with more foreigners when he was training in Beiyang, so he has no fear of foreigners, although he also feels that foreigners are not easy to deal with, but he is not afraid, and he can be reasonable when he knows foreigners.

In front of the solemn governor's yamen, Yang Chao got out of the carriage, two German soldiers followed behind, and a man in his twenties who looked like a boy and brother was already greeted with a smile in front of him.

Without waiting for Yang Chao to guess the identity of this person, he reported to his family: "Under Yuan Keding, I am specially ordered by my father to greet the envoy of the Governor of Qingdao again." The special envoy came, and the contemptible people welcomed him on behalf of his father, but his father was unwell and could not welcome him in person, and he hoped that the special envoy would forgive him. ”

I can't figure out Yang Chao's identity, let alone the purpose of Yang Chao's coming, but Yuan Shikai has already regarded Yang Chao as an envoy and asked his son to greet him personally.

Yang Chao was a little strange, not that Yuan Shikai sent his son to greet him, but that this Yuan Keding was not lame in the legend, why was he walking very normally just now, so Yang Chao really didn't guess that this was Yuan Shikai's eldest son Yuan Keding just now.

Immediately took out a flattered look, hugged his fists and bowed down: "Yuan Gongzi is already flattered, how dare Yuan Gong to greet him, if Yuan Gongzi comes to greet him, wouldn't he be tormented." ”

Yang Chao changed his humility in front of the county order, but at this time he became a little neither humble nor arrogant.

Yuan Keding's expression was complicated and carefully observed Yang Chao's expression, and he couldn't see any clues, from Yang Chao's neither humble nor arrogant tone, he could hear that this was not a character who was used to being humble, and suddenly felt that this was not just a simple translation.

Without hesitation, he immediately stretched out his arms: "Please move the special envoy and distinguished German guests." ”

Yang Chao smiled and nodded, but said a few words in German to a few Germans, and then spoke to Yuan Keding.

"They won't go in. Just wait! ”

Yang Chao's tone was very casual, it seemed that the Eight Banners soldiers were casually sending their clothes and aha, which made Yuan Keding even more puzzled about Yang Chao's identity, how could a Chinese from Nanyang dictate to the German soldiers? If it were an ordinary interpreter, he wouldn't believe it.

Yuan Keding was in front, Yang Chao was in a slightly backward position, followed him all the way through the second hall of the lobby, and finally arrived at the back hall of the governor's yamen, and finally arrived at a flower hall, outside the flower hall there were several guards with knives, and in the hall sat a round-faced and rich official, but he did not wear the official mansion, only wore civilian clothes, with a round hat, like a big boss.

This person is not Yuan Shikai, who else can there be!

To be honest, when he finally saw this kind of legendary character, Rao is Yang Chao has seen a lot of big scenes, and his heart can't help but tremble slightly, not nervous, but faintly excited.

But Yang Chao's face was still calm, with a calm smile, looking directly at Yuan Shikai and walking up to him.

At this time, Yang Chao bowed his hand: "Xiaomin Yang Chao, I have seen Lord Yuan!" ”

Very standard understanding, a few days ago, I practiced a lot, and I also consulted a Chinese boss who opened a shop nearby.

Yuan Shikai has been sitting on the stool, sitting straight, and did not get up, after Yang Chao saluted, he just waved his hand and motioned for Yang Chao to sit down.

Yang Chao smiled: "Lord Xie." ”

Then he sat down with a butt, not that ordinary subordinates only dared to sit on half an ass, but sat down steadfastly and uprightly, so that Yuan Shikai couldn't help but feel a kind of 'quite magnanimous' appreciation, especially when he saw Yang Chao's young face, he was even more appreciative.

"Mr. Yang doesn't have to be polite. I don't know what is the important matter for Mr. to come? ”

Yuan Shikai obviously knew that Yang Chao was coming on behalf of the governor of Qingdao, but he didn't reveal it at all.

Yang Chao didn't hide it, and said directly: "Lord Governor has a special matter, please ask Lord Yuan for help." It's just a personal matter! ”

Yuan Shikai nodded and smiled lightly: "Is it a private matter?" The old man also has several relationships with Governor Yeshk, and they can be regarded as friends, and friends have something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

As the governor of Shandong, it is impossible for Yuan Shikai to say that he has never met the governor of Qingdao, but it is also impossible to say that he has a personal relationship.

Yang Chao smiled: "Then there is Master Lao." ”

After saying that, he pushed away a few items of wine and food on the table, and he put the baggage he had brought down from the carriage on the table, and then opened it gently.

"The Governor's favorite plum vase was accidentally broken by a woman, and the Governor couldn't sleep at night. I hope that the Governor will be grateful if he can introduce one or two craftsmen. ”

Yang Chao particularly exaggerated the degree of Qingdao Governor Ye Shike's love for vases, and the governor did not like how this vase could show the importance of the vase, and how could Yang Chao show the importance of Yang Chao if he did not show his attention.

Ye Shike naturally couldn't sleep at night, but what Yang Chao said was also grounded, if he didn't pay attention to it, how could he send his own carriage to let someone come to Yuan Shikai.

Therefore, Yuan Shikai did not doubt it at all when he heard this, but when he saw the porcelain fragments in the baggage, he felt that his head was big for a while, because it was too broken, and it was so irritating that it was broken, because you couldn't see any pieces larger than walnuts, basically the size of a finger, and even many crumbs, basically just a pile of residues.

And no matter how Yuan Shikai looks at the fragments, it seems that someone deliberately smashed them, otherwise there would not be so many slags, who would beat a porcelain vase, and most of it would be the size of beans?

Yuan Shikai guessed right, the original fragments really couldn't be broken to this point, but Yuan Shikai couldn't guess that these had nothing to do with the Germans, these were smashed by Yang Chao himself, and it took a night to smash them again, the purpose was to make Yuan Shikai feel a headache, feel helpless, and there was no way at all.

Seeing this, Yuan Shikai originally planned that as long as the foreigners did not ask too much, he would meet them, and when he heard that he was just helping to find a curium porcelain craftsman, he almost agreed.

Seeing that Yang Chao carefully put away the burden, Yuan Shikai waved his hand, and a very eye-catching subordinate next to him immediately took it.

Yuan Shikai said: "Since the governor of Yeshk has a request, this official will give it a try, but he does not dare to guarantee that it will be repaired." ”

Yang Chao nodded: "Lord Yuan is polite, Lord Governor said that there is nothing that Lord Yuan can't do in Shandong." ”

This kind of fragment, left in anyone's home, basically except for throwing it away, probably will not make any effort to try to repair it, and in front of which curium porcelain maker, it will probably shake its head, but Yang Chao just wants Yuan Shikai to find someone to repair it, that is, to set him up, telling him that the Germans think that he can find someone to repair it, and if he can't repair it, it is not interesting enough, and he just refuses to help.

Yuan Shikai immediately felt that something was wrong, did the German really think so much about himself Yuan Shikai didn't know, he felt at this time that the other party was relying on himself, so he had to let himself help him repair this plum bottle, and for a moment Yuan Shikai even had a feeling that the Germans were here to find fault and blackmail.

Because this method is too similar to the method of extortion and extortion of the small stream of Tianjin Wei, but he thought that the German governor would not be like this, so he was a little puzzled.

Where did he think that it was just Yang Chao who was embarrassing him, the Germans were actually not too serious, they could repair it if they could, and the Germans would not care if it was not repaired, so they could only sigh and be unlucky, Yeshike just had the attitude of trying it out, but Yang Chao made it a false impression that Yuan Shikai had to be repaired.

But since Yang Chao spoke on behalf of the German governor, Yuan Shikai could only take it head-on.

"Then I'll give it a try."

Yang Chao couldn't help but be happy when he saw Yuan Shikai's expression, but at the same time, he couldn't bear it, he bullied Yuan Shikai with Germans, this is not what he likes to do, just for his own purposes, and he can only do this kind of thing.

"Oh yes, the Governor has a letter for your lordship."

There is nothing special in Yeshke's letter, just some flattering words, and a request for help, the attitude is quite polite, but at the same time there is a kind of German arrogance, giving people a sense of domineering, Yang Chao naturally knows these contents, because he is the translator at all, although the German translators also understand Chinese, but not many can write a beautiful Chinese character.

"Recently, this official has occasionally felt cold and is too strong to drink, so he can't accompany the envoy. Let's ask the dog to act as the official. The official will not bother the envoy. ”

Yuan Shikai said goodbye with a solemn expression at this time.

Yuan Shikai thought too much, of course he would think too much, and was suddenly relied on by the German governor, as the governor of Shandong, it was strange that he could not consider the reason, so he immediately excused himself.

Yang Chao was a little regretful, Yuan Shikai was really not guilty of accompanying him to send a letter to the German governor, and meeting him was to save face, if Ye Shike came in person, of course he would have to accompany him, but Yang Chao, his son would be enough.

Yuan Shikai quickly sent a message to him, saying that he would need some days and asked Yang Chao to stay at the governor's yamen.

Yang Chao was talking to Yuan Keding about wine, so he took the opportunity to ask Yuan Keding to make arrangements, let the two German soldiers and the coachman also stay, and arrange some meals for them.

Yuan Keding agreed.

So Yang Chao stayed in the Shandong Mansion with peace of mind, and he went to see what masters Yuan Shikai could invite to get those plum bottle dregs, some of which were about to turn into powder, Yang Chao really couldn't imagine that there were craftsmen who could restore them.

Yuan Shikai found the craftsman the next day, he did not come forward in person, and asked his son to bring the craftsman to explain to Yang Chao, the craftsman said that the plum vase was too broken, or it should be filled with other porcelain vases, otherwise it would be impossible to restore it.

But Yang Chao vetoed the method of filling in other porcelain tiles, and Yuan Shikai had to be embarrassed, otherwise how could he be impressed?
