After the signing of the cooperation agreement in the field, a large number of German technicians entered Shaanxi, Beijing and other places to carry out real all-round cooperation between China and Germany, whether in the military, educational, economic and other fields

The first question posed by Guan Xuqing when the company was established was who would be in charge of this multinational company? The people under him are all exquisite in the officialdom, but they are complete idiots in the shopping mall

Although the cooperation agreement clearly stipulates that the airship company is managed by Germany, but if you don't send a person to watch it, you don't feel at ease, think about it, or let the head of the household Li Zhen look at it first, this is in charge of the Daqing Bank, as the honest man of the Daqing housekeeper, although he has no outstanding skills, but there is an advantage that is incorruptible, although historically, the Germans are very rigorous, and generally there will be no corruption, but they are not changing history, and they are not at ease if they don't look at it, besides, The money for starting a company was all taken out of the household department by the Qing Dynasty, and Li Zhen, as the secretary of the household department, would of course look at it more tightly than others

After the decision, a paper appointment came to Li Zhen, and Li Zhen, who was originally interested in the existence of this company, finally found a reason and kept an eye on this Far East Joint Stock Company, and he never understood why we had to share 30% of the profits of the Germans in the construction of airships in the Qing Dynasty

After cooperating with the Germans economically, it was discovered that the Germans were so efficient that before the Kaiser left the capital, in just five days, everything from extraction to oil refining to the manufacture of internal combustion engines to the construction of airships was completed

William saw the first airship successfully fly from the capital to Shandong before boarding the warship to return to Germany, and after seeing off William, Guan Xuqing was also ready to go on a southern tour, but before the southern tour, there were many things that still needed to be explained

On the second day of the third month of Guangxu 19, Guan Xuqing shouted on this day

In the early dynasty, Guan Xuqing looked at the ministers in the lower hall, as long as he thought that these people were all yang and yin, on the surface, they were the courtiers of the Qing Dynasty, but in fact, they all belonged to those so-called parties and parties, so he didn't fight in one place

"It's called Daqi today, there are two things to explain to you" Guan Xuqing looked around and continued: "First, all the ministers may have heard that our Daqing and Germany exploited the oil fields in Shaanxi together, learned the advanced refining technology of others and opened an airship company, and the German technology accounted for 30% of the shares of our airship company, why is this?" Who let us in the Qing Dynasty no one will build it, why can we only let the Germans teach us, but why do we in the Qing Dynasty always walk behind others? ”

The more Guan Xuqing spoke, the more excited he became, and everyone in the hall was silent, and they lowered their heads one by one without making a sound

"I ask the household department to allocate a lot of money to the local government every day to popularize education, but why hasn't the country produced a good seedling after so many years? Is it that we have no one in the Qing Dynasty, or that the money for this education has not fallen to the place at all, I believe that all the ministers know better than me" Guan Xuqing continued to sweep everyone in the hall with his gaze, and continued: "A few days ago, because of the war with Japan and Thailand, I didn't have the time and didn't have the energy to engage in these things, but now I have time every day to check where all the education funds allocated by the household department were used, why so many Tsinghua University in the past few years, Not long after the students who graduated from Peking University went to teach in the local area, they would rather go to the barracks to join the army than become teachers? Is it really patriotic to this extent? Or is it because there aren't so many schools for them to teach? Or is the money for teaching not as much as the soldier's salary? ”

When Guan Xuqing said that he was excited, he couldn't help but slap the table, making a creepy "knock" and "knock" sound

"Is the wisdom of my 40,000,000 compatriots in the Qing Dynasty no match for the tens of millions of people in Germany? Since the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, I have opened universities and popularized education, and I have invested more money in education every year than in all previous dynasties, but why was there a Xu Shou who brought grenades, shells, and mortars to me before, but now there is nothing? Has all this silver been lost? Guan Xuqing pointed to the officials under the steps and scolded

There was still silence underneath, and even the sound of a pin falling on the ground could be heard

Guan Xuqing paused for a moment, seeing that everyone was silent, his heart was angry, and he continued: "From today on, I will set up another Ministry of Education in addition to the original six departments of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Execution, and every year the Ministry of Household directly allocates funds to the Ministry of Education, and the construction of schools and universal education in all provinces are directly managed by the Ministry of Education of the Imperial Court, and the local government shall not interfere, and the allocated education funds will no longer go through the hands of local officials.

After Guan Xu cleared his will, there was a little sound at the bottom

Guan Xuqing calmed down a little and said, "Tell me, who is the right person to be the secretary of the Ministry of Education?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Xu Shouzhi's proud protégé, graduated from Tsinghua University ten years ago and is also the first batch of graduates of Tsinghua University, Luan Xueqian is the most appropriate to take on this position," Kang Youwei said with a step

"Well, where is this person now?" Guan Xuqing nodded with satisfaction, what he was satisfied with was not how much skill Luan Xueqian had, he was satisfied that the candidate proposed by Kang Youwei did not belong to any party in the imperial court, and now Guan Xuqing hated the party struggle very much, although he knew that it could not be completely extinguished

"Back to the emperor, this person has a lot of research in chemistry, and is currently serving as the director of the research department of the Hubei Gun Bureau," Kang Youwei said

Guan Xuqing immediately said: "Proposed purpose, appreciate Luan Xueqian's dazzling eyes, give him a top product to wear, let him go to Beijing immediately to take up a post, and serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Education"

"Chirp" Kang Youwei fell to his knees

Those people below seemed to regret the sudden loss of a first-class top from their hands, but they were full of curiosity about the second thing the emperor was going to say, and secretly decided in their hearts that if there was any more department, they would definitely rush out and recommend themselves

"Second, I decided that the personnel of the southern tour in the near future have been decided, there are Feng Xianghua and Liang Qijian in the capital, as the saying goes, Yangzhou will go down in March, and now the spring is blooming in the south, and I have to be free and relaxed" Guan Xuqing changed his face and said easily

As soon as the second thing was said, there was silence just now, and now it was like an explosion of the pot, and the people below were discussing it

"Your Majesty, is the southern tour by water or by land? Which provinces to pass through, if you want to prepare the palace for the emperor, you have to prepare in advance, I'm afraid it will be ...... in such a hurry," Zhang Zhidong said worriedly

Guan Xuqing hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't be so troublesome, I just go out for a walk, I don't have to work too hard to move the crowd, I can bring the Royal Forest Army and transfer a guard regiment to Dong Liang, and when I get to the place, I will contact the capital."
