Chapter 138: Zhao Erfeng's Tricks

A large number of Sichuan people have the shares of the Sichuan-Han Railway Company, and everyone is most worried that these hard work will come to naught, so the road protection movement will break out, but since Qiao Yu has been in charge of Sichuan, the Sichuan people have really felt the great changes in their lives, and now Qiao Yu's prestige among the Sichuan people has reached a new height.

Qiao Yu's prestige has increased, which has directly led to the credit improvement of Sichuan political axe, which has brought about the fact that the stocks that could not be exchanged for silver have suddenly become fragrant and sweet, with the double insurance of Sichuan political axe and Sichuan Investment Bank, these stocks suddenly have value, and the construction of Sichuan-Han Road presided over by Zhan Tianyou is also in full swing, and the people also know that the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway will soon begin to break ground.

According to Qiao Yu's policy, the people can choose to exchange shares with the political axe, or exchange them for the equivalent of the shares of the new Sichuan Railway Company, at first some people exchanged for real money, but soon everyone came to their senses and changed to the shares of the new company, and even many big businessmen bought these stocks at a high price.

The interests of the people of Sichuan have been preserved, and some people have made a small profit, a huge hidden danger in Sichuan society has been completely solved, according to the original history in the Republic of China after the establishment of the Republic of China, the Sichuan-Han Railway is still in accordance with the plan of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to be owned by the Beiyang political axe, and Beiyang's energy is concentrated in the north, the railway has not been able to be built, has become a century-old wound in the hearts of the people of Sichuan, and now Qiao Yu has completely solved it by his own strength, and at the same time the Sichuan Railway Company began a large-scale fundraising, and the Sichuan-Han Railway finally has hope, Sichuan's economy is also guaranteed to take off.

Chengdu to Yucheng this section is mostly plain area, it is easier to build a railway, Zhan Tianyou with a few engineers and Qiao Yu hired engineers from the United States to form an expedition team, soon the railway line was finalized, and then the immigration work began, although the people relocated to the land, but after entering the road protection movement, everyone knows that this is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, but also for their own construction of the railway, so the people of Sichuan are very supportive, take the initiative to relocate, some areas have begun to build roadbeds.

Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky! Traffic problems have been entangled in Sichuan people, although there is a rich Chengdu Plain, but the rich products can not be transported out well, the Sichuan people's hearts of the suppressed thirst is indescribable, every township and town that has entered, every village has a large number of people volunteer labor, participated in the construction work, with the people's understanding and support, Zhan Tianyou confidence is more sufficient, in the near future a traffic artery will appear on the Chengdu Plain.

"Boss, if you want me to say that you live in Sichuan, I will honor you so much!" After Qiao Zhen got Pu Dianjun sentenced to life imprisonment, she came to report to Zhao Erfeng, by the way, look at this old man, Zhao Erfeng at this time is even older than last year, his hair has all turned silver-white, his face is full of age spots, and his back is hunched, but his spirit is still very good.

"Zhiqing, I have my own family and children, what is it like to live in Sichuan, I remember your heart, we used to be superiors and subordinates, and this will be a year-old friend in the future, you have a blood surname, know loyalty, and are much stronger than your third brother!"

Qiao Zhen also scratched her head when she heard Lao Zhao say this, Lao Zhao has always regarded Qiao Yu as a rebellious minister and thief.

"Zhiqing, the Chengdu bloody case is still in my ears, I left Sichuan like this, I am a little sorry for those dead!"

"Boss, don't worry, you are just following orders in the Chengdu bloody case, those people's debts are Manchu debts, now that the Manchus are gone, everything will pass!"

Zhao Erfeng sighed slightly: "From now on, the old man will devote himself to fasting and reciting Buddha, and pray for the dead before my Buddha, may they be born in a peaceful and prosperous world in the next life, and no longer suffer from this change of dynasty!" ”

Qiao Zhen helped Zhao Erfeng to walk slowly in the garden, and at this time, the family came to report, saying that Qiao Yu came to ask to see, Zhao Erfeng glanced at Qiao Zhen, "Your third child is here, you invite him in for me, I'm waiting for him in the pavilion!" ”

With Pu Dianjun and others sentenced to life imprisonment, the issue of the Baolu Movement has come to an end, and all parties have been explained, Qiao Yu also knew that it was time for Zhao Erfeng to leave Sichuan, and he still admired this old man Qiao Yu very much, so he also came to meet.

"Sir, how are you doing?"

"There is no difference between my old man's death and his life, the Qing Dynasty has lost the country, I am the minister of the country, and it is already the biggest sin that my old bones cannot be martyred!"

Qiao Yuxin said that this old gentleman is really stupid and filial, "Boss, you see that the Republic of China was first built and Vientiane was renewed, isn't this world much better than the Manchu Dynasty?" ”

Zhao Erfeng picked up the bowl and took a sip of fragrant tea, and sneered at Qiao Yu: "Boy, are you really blind when you are an old man, the world has indeed changed, but it can't be said to be good, you said that Sichuan has become better, the old man believes, it may not be possible in other places, you have cut the centijin, reformed the salt administration, and the people of Sichuan can be regarded as able to have a way to live, but in other places, there are hundreds of thousands of troops out of thin air, which must be supported by the people, there are more and more harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and there are more and more centijin checkpoints, To be honest, the lives of ordinary people may not be better than those of the Qing Dynasty! ”

Qiao Yu suddenly had nothing to say, what Lao Zhao said was the reality of the situation, especially in the southern provinces where the people's army was everywhere, and he also knew that the people had greater suffering waiting for them, but he couldn't admit it in front of this Qing Dynasty relic.

"If there is no chaos, there will be great chaos, and since ancient times, there will always be some labor pains for the change of dynasty!"

Zhao Erfeng shook his head slightly, "Boy, back then, Li Hongzhang said that this is a great change unseen in three thousand years, I think this sentence still makes sense, but does my old in-law have the ability to control the overall situation of the world?" Li Hongzhang is a pastemaker, he is just an old horse and a broken car can barely maintain it, and he can't reform the world. ”

This Zhao Erfeng and Yuan Shikai are still sons and daughters, so Lao Zhao called Yuan Shikai so, in fact, the late Qing Dynasty was very bureaucratic and relied on various relationships to form a huge network, Lao Yuan himself is a member of this big net, so Beiyang largely inherited the bad habits of the Manchu officialdom, Lao Yuan and Lao Zhao are in the net, in the original history Yuan Shikai transferred Yin Changheng to Yanjing, almost killed, just to avenge Zhao Erfeng.

Lao Zhao is in this big net, and he sees things very thoroughly, and the development of the world is indeed the same as Lao Zhao's judgment, Qiao Yu is not easy to continue to argue, so he has to say with a smile: "Old man, the younger generation is ready to set up a stone monument for your old man on the side of the river to commemorate your old achievements!" ”

Zhao Erfeng raised his eyebrows, and then shook his head like a rattle, "Yan Ran Legong was done by the famous generals of the ancients, the old man is not worthy, and the old man is loyal to the Qing Dynasty, and it is also for the Qing Dynasty to defend the border, and he has responsibilities, you give me a monument, are you not afraid that these characters in the Republic of China will be dissatisfied?" ”

"Old man, but what do you think, Tibet can be preserved, you are indispensable, this credit is for the country, for the nation, it is immortal, even if it is thousands of years later, the rest of the people will be forgotten by history, you are still famous in history!"

Lao Zhao heard Qiao Yu speak like this for the second time, obviously hearing it in his heart, but the old man shook his head again: "I still don't deserve that sentence, if I can set up a monument, the people of Sichuan will spurn it, but the old man seems to have done the right thing in the river in his life, boy, since you value the river so much, the old man has three strategies to pacify the riverside, I don't know if you want to hear it?" ”
