The period of the Yamen of the Minister of Beiyang in Tianjin has always been every three and eight. That is, the three, eight, thirteen, eighteen, and so on of each month.

Every time it is time to go, the crowd of people waiting at the door to see what's going on has already stood out and gone far away. The sedan chair was full of cars, and the car was full. Countless feathers are brilliant, and the large and small Beiyang officials stand in front of the court. Several red road members entered with high spirits, and went straight into the lobby and the middle hall, and there were also several big men in the department to talk. The government and road teams who were not red hurriedly stood next to them. The more polite Hongdaotai also returned the salute, and he didn't even look at the bigger ones. The chatter around is full of rumors about officialdom promotions and transfers. Many people waited for the small team that was waiting for the hardship, gathered in front of the card to see how many errands were listed today, and let out a long or short sigh.

As for the henchmen of the Huai family, they have never squeezed this excitement during the period. They are all in the signing room and can talk to Zhongtang at any time.

From a distance, I saw an eight-carrying sedan chair turn over the wall, and the officials who stretched their necks turned their heads. Look at the official title sign in front. Suddenly there was a louder burst of discussion. Some also pointed and poked at the sedan chair. There was a lot of discussion, and the looks on his face were very exciting. Listening to the few words they revealed, there were more discussions about two hundred and five, two poles and so on.

The sedan chair stopped in the distance, and many people rushed here. Except for a very small number of people. Most of them haven't seen what this two hundred and five look like!

Waiting next to the sedan chair was Zhang Yuzhang's steward, who was carrying his bag. Behind the sedan chair, there were two military attachés on horseback and lapis lazuli tops. A tall, thin, lazy laugh. One was young and handsome, with a face as heavy as water. There always seemed to be a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

Zhang Yu lifted the curtain, and those officials unconsciously let out a buzzing sound. Everyone saw a young official. Wearing a second-grade red top, he got out of the sedan chair with a smile. Accidentally, I stepped on the foot of the robe, and suddenly stumbled and fell on the sedan bar. It was accompanied by a scream: "Fuck! ”

There was a bang, and there was a burst of laughter. No one with a low team went to stand in the banba. Put it in Ping, this kind of platform that can directly talk to the middle hall, how many waits for the small team that have been waiting for pants are not in a hurry to stammer, licking the ass and doing it.

But this two-pole platform, everyone knows his deeds. erected a sign to train the Praetorian Guard, but the yamen was empty up and down. Except for thirty-nine stupid students, none of them wanted to work under him. It is said that the public expenses of the yamen, together with all the expenses, are supported by him out of his own pocket! If you go to him as an errand man, it might as well not have it.

There are rumors coming out of it, and Zhongtang is just waiting to see his training yamen close Zhang Daji!

Xu Yifan is deliberately making a fool of himself today, so he is wearing a military uniform in the Beiyang Martial Arts Academy. Today, Yuanqi,I'm going to go to this book again.。 Make a little perverse, and everyone will be able to understand what he is doing now.

Anyway, it's a two-hundred-and-five, and whoever thinks of it will come out.

It is best for everyone to tolerate watching him make a fool of himself, and it is also best to have the mentality of watching jokes.

Then some of his real actions may be regarded as a joke......

But this wrestling is really not intentionally falling, who is impatient to wear this robe, mending, and riding coat and lining thing! The face is knocked on the sedan bar, and the pain hurts himself.

He straightened the big hat on his head a little embarrassed, and bowed his hand to the officials who were watching him as monkeys. The patrol officer who greeted him couldn't help but laugh, and came up with a deflated hand to beat a thousand. Lying on the ground and laughing, his shoulders trembled.

Chu Wanli was behind, squeezing his eyes at Li Yun as he dismounted, and said in a low voice, "See?" When Wang Mang was humble and not usurped, we, the adults, were pretending to be crazy and stupid! ”

Li Yun glanced at him: "Shut up!" ”

"Lord Xu, there is something to say in the middle hall, today is the Yuan period, and the adults will see you wherever you go. Zhongtang talked to several adults in the lobby, does Lord Xu want to be humble? ”

Xu Yifan smiled, Zhang Yu had already handed his notebook to the patrol officer. He himself pulled out a formal fold from his sleeve. Holding it in both hands, with the sound of the patrol officer, he also entered with high spirits. The crowd followed him forward, unaware that the bastard muttered in a low voice when he stepped into the threshold: "Fall!" Fall! ”

All the way into the lobby, Li Hongzhang had already stood politely in front of the dripping eaves, surrounded by red-topped subordinates. For Xu Yifan, Li Hongzhang is indeed extremely polite on face. Xu Yifan bowed down from afar: "The way of occupation is to see Lord Zhongtang!" ”

Li Hongzhang laughed: "Don't go to court, come in and talk!" The old man seemed to be in a good mood, standing there with a tall body and a straight waist.

A few people entered the lobby and sat down, and Xu Yifan saw a middle-aged man wearing a second-grade top, thin beard, and an officer's five-cloud coat sitting there, looking at himself with his eyes incessantly. Li Hongzhang looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, let me introduce you, this is the registered admiral of the Beiyang Navy Division, and the chief soldier of Tianjin Town, Ding Yuting's military gate." The two of you are trained as a water master and a land master, both of you are important towns in the country, so you should get close. ”

Ding Ruchang?!

Xu Yifan's eyes froze, for no other reason. This person and the tragic navy are too deep and profound in Chinese's memory......

He hurriedly got up and arched his hands, straightened his eyebrows, and squeezed deeply. There was a hint of arrogance in Ding Ruchang's expression. A powerful fleet that is now in charge of China's now recently modernized fleet is rampant in the waters of the South China Sea in East Asia. One is a training platform with a sign. That's a huge gap. He was on the chair, he just wanted to heal his waist, Li Hongzhang touched the teacup, coughed quietly, Ding Ruchang hurriedly stood up, smiled and groaned to the end, and sat down hand in hand with Xu Yifan.

Before sitting back in his position, Xu Yifan was about to speak, but Ding Ruchang was in front.

"Zhongtang, this water master is really unskilled! I don't have money to buy coal, and the coal that Kailuan gave us is all broken. The sailor can only pick a whole piece to burn. For 100 catties of coal, it can burn only 50 catties. Not to mention adding ships and artillery, the land batteries have been strictly organized, but recruiting land divisions to defend the batteries is another dilemma, and there is no place to open! Now there are many fast guns used by foreigners, and they are all sharp weapons that can fire seventy or eighty cannons in an hour, and they are purely flowering steel bullets. Although the size of our cannons does not suffer, it is already remarkable to shoot twenty or thirty cannons in an hour, and there are few flowering steel bullets...... We'll have to add this cannon! ”

In front of Xu Yifan, Ding Ruchang sneered in Huaiyin's official words, and counted the lack of ships, guns, personnel and salaries in the Beiyang Naval Division. Hearing this, Li Hongzhang's face couldn't help but sink. He couldn't stop nodding, and his eyes never looked at Xu Yifan. However, the staff members sitting around him peeked at Xu Yifan from time to time.

Every time I leave, I can't refuse to see this special purpose. I'm afraid that I will be paid, so I use this trick to prevaricate?

Xu Yifan pondered in his heart, and he still smiled innocently on his face. If you have to perform such a play every time, maybe the next time you see it will be Ye Zhichao, Zuo Guigui...... The Huai army is a land and water general, and he has to see it enough.

But...... What Ding Ruchang said about the current situation of the Beiyang Naval Division is true......

He calmed down there, but Li Hongzhang raised his hand to stop Ding Ruchang's affairs: "Yu Ting, I can't tell you innocent now, you can take a note of Chen and show it to me." It depends on how much it costs, how many ships to add, how many guns, and how much it costs in normal times. I'm going to have a lawsuit with my superiors. He turned his face with a deep groan and smiled at Xu Yifan: "What is the word Brother Xu?" I haven't asked. ”

Xu Yifan was stunned, he really didn't think about this stubble! Let this white-bearded old man scream one by one, and his goosebumps are really fast. He closed his eyes slightly, then opened his eyes and said with a smile: "The word of the job is clear, please ask Lord Zhongtang to command." ”

Li Hongzhang was stunned for a moment, and seemed to ponder his words. In the end, he just smiled: "Chuan Qing, you and I are not outsiders." These are the ones you transfer people to, and the yamen you open the yamen. If you can take a hand, my old man has never been ambiguous. If you can't approve this sub-camp, it's just two words, and you don't have any money. ”

Xu Yifan's expression did not move, and he bowed down to lead the training.

"Beiyang has a big stall and a lot of expenses. The Sailor Lu Shi School Machine Bureau is here, and you and I have counted the money issued by the household department. The training yamen only approved 25,000 taels of start-up expenses. It's all on your part. The ninety-five deduction convention for the payment of money issued by the camp office has not deducted yours either. But we all understand that this amount of money is enough to train what kind of soldiers! Now Yu Ting also came to call me poor, and the sailors guarded the key points of Haikou, and every year they had to go north to Piziwo and south to Xingjiapo to inspect the North and South Oceans. I don't even have the money here to add more ships and guns! You should have heard of the two ironclad ships in Dingzhen, these two national treasure ships have been bought for more than ten years. Not a single shot!

I'm pondering this matter, whether to give the court another discount, I'll pick the lead, and get some money for your lawsuit...... For the current matter, I think we will do it first, and you will use all the people you transfer, and the camp office and the aftermath bureau will give you a public fund of 8,000 taels every month, and the dignity of the training department of the imperial palace and the military guards cannot be lost...... Let's think about the other things, what do you think? ”

This is Li Hongzhang's final price, give him some money, and raise this yamen under the guise of not dying. Until everyone forgets!

What should come will come after all. But he can only swim against the current.

He smiled and finally handed over the notebook in his hand: "The Dao knows the difficulties of the Lord Zhongtang and the difficulties of the imperial court, so we must also be considerate of the errands...... The money for this military training, Zhidao decided to raise it himself! There is an excerpt here, please play the court in the middle hall. Get a name for the job ......"

Li Hongzhang took his notebook suspiciously, and the eyes of several people turned around, not knowing what kind of waist these two hundred and five were playing.

Li Hongzhang glanced at the notebook, rested on the table in surprise, and looked at Xu Yifan fixedly: "You want to go to Nanyang to raise money?" ”

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

That's right, Xu Yifan is planning to go to Nanyang to raise money.

This place used to support the equivalent of tens of millions of taels of silver before and after the recovery of the Alliance. At his time, the official history books of the Kuomintang counted that about 42 million yuan of Nanyang Guangfu bonds were issued. The number of Kuomintang veteran Ju Zheng's own memories far exceeds the recognition of official history books!

What Xu Yifan didn't understand was where the alliance tossed so much money back then.

And that's far from the limit of what Nanyang can raise. Most of the donors are the middle and lower classes of Nanyang overseas Chinese society, and the Nanyang overseas Chinese family, known as the Bamboo Net Dragon Hall, has basically not invested a penny of foreign money here!

Count these families, at that time, Siamese Chen, Wu, Lee, and Zheng, and later owned four banking groups in Thailand (Bangkok Bank, Thai-Chinese Farmers Bank, Ayutthaya Bank, and Jinghua Bank), with a market value of more than $50 billion. In later generations, the Li family of Lanyin was divided into the Li family's Lippo Group in Indonesia, the Sarin Group of the son-in-law Lin family, the Pan India Group of the Li family's branch, the Central Asia Banking Group, the Li family's branch of the Nam Yi Group in Malaysia, the United Overseas Bank Group composed of the original Li family's servant Huang family, and the OCBC Banking Group of the Li family in Singapore...... These Li family and their branches alone have formed a huge conglomerate with control assets of more than 90 billion US dollars!

The Alliance has never done their job well, and these overseas Chinese families of the Bamboo Net Longtang also looked down on the Alliance at that time. If you can combine these overseas assets and a large number of ready-made talents with modern education, these will have a huge influence in Nanyang. Then training a well-equipped and strong army with a strong national consciousness is just around the corner!

Remembering the legend of the colonial authorities in the 60s of the 20th century when they forcibly closed down Chinese schools, these overseas Chinese youths wore white shirts, sang the March of the Volunteers, and held gasoline bottles to confront the colonial troops armed to the teeth. Xu Yifan felt a pity......

Some stupid moves in later generations pushed the bamboo network dragon hall and the overseas Chinese society in Nanyang farther and farther away, until they were far apart, and only a little cultural bond remained. These overseas Chinese associations, families, and the huge overseas Chinese population in Nanyang have all integrated into the local society and become the real elite class in Nanyang. The centripetal force towards the motherland is getting farther and farther away......

We have never managed such a huge asset left by our ancestors.

So let's change all of that before we have had time to do too much stupidity......

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

On this winter morning of the first three years, in the Yamen of the Minister of Beiyang.

Xu Yifan looked at Li Hongzhang with a smile, nodded respectfully, and said, "Lord Zhongtang, exactly." The job has checked the precedent of the national dynasty, opened the coastal defense donation, and opened the Zheng Gong donation. The ministers of Nanyang have all sent people to proclaim and raise salaries for Nanyang. It is in this name that the ministry seeks. ”

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Violent and violent, I began to decide to break out and make up all the debts in front of me.
