Rushing during this period is definitely a hard physical job.

Although there is only a more than 100-kilometer road from Fangcheng to Nanning, it will take nearly five days to complete this road. There were no cars, no trains, and people had to rely on a few horses to get around. After staying in Fangcheng for three days and solving Lu Rongting's invitation, Chen Liqing took Yin Xiu and Yin Li to ride a horse to Nanning and slowly marched towards Nanning.

The traffic problem was definitely the biggest and most difficult problem in the southwest part of the early years.

Although China's railways appeared in China as early as 1876, and China's first railway, the Wusong Railway, was opened to traffic, in the early days of nearly 30 years of railway development, most of China's railways were only in the coastal areas and northeast regions. For example, on the southwest side, there is only the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway and the Yunnan section.

People here still need to rely on horses to get around.

Every time he goes back and forth between Guizhou and Fangcheng, Chen Liqing has to sigh at the backwardness of the southwest. But this time he accompanied Yin Xiu and Yin Li back and forth, but he didn't sigh again.

With beauty by your side, this journey will naturally not be boring.

However, Yin Xiu and Yin Li had never been to the southwest side, and after a few days of hurrying, Yin Li finally sighed why this side was so backward.

Although the two of them have only lived in Yueben for one year, they can live in Yueben, but they do not feel inconvenient. And when I came to the southwest, I still needed to walk slowly, and the gap came out immediately.

"Hehe, Brother Yin Li, you are right, compared with the book, our China is indeed backward now, just from this hurry, we are a big step behind." Hearing Yin Li's sigh, Chen Liqing smiled lightly.

Riding a horse and chatting, this kind of rush is much easier than before Chen Liqing and them went straight to each other. He also went back and forth between Fangcheng and Guiyang several times, and every time they hurried, they ran all the way. And this time, there is a woman like Yin Xiu along the way, and they can't be so in a hurry.

"Thirty years, the gap between us and Yueben is at least thirty years, if we want to really catch up with them, I am afraid that our generation will need at least thirty years of hard work to catch up with them." Chen Liqing stretched out three fingers, shook his head with a wry smile, and glanced at Yin Xiu at the same time.

Yin Xiu didn't talk much on the road, but every time Chen Liqing spoke, she would look up at Chen Liqing. Because she had only been with Chen Liqing for a few days, she found that Chen Liqing, a big boy, was not quite consistent with ordinary children, and many times made her feel that Chen Liqing was older than her.

"Thirty years? Liqing, where did you come to your conclusion? Yin Li looked at Chen Liqing with wide eyes, he couldn't think of some opinions about Chen Liqing, and when he heard Chen Liqing say something serious, he couldn't help but ask again.

"What about that?" Chen Liqing glanced at Yin Xiu: "It can be seen from the economy, military, system, and all aspects." In front of Yin Xiu, Chen Liqing did not avoid saying some eye-opening remarks, this time, since Yin Li asked, Chen Liqing was not modest.

"Economically, you may not understand Brother Yin Li, but I can give an example. In Yuben, you and Sister Yin Xiu can casually find jobs to support themselves. And in today's China, if you are not a farmer and have no skills, I am afraid that you and Sister Yin Xiu will eventually be reduced to a small flower who asks for food. ”

"Only when industry has developed to a certain foundation will the whole society be uplifted and improved, and the manifestation of this progress is reflected in the majority of the poor masses. Only when most people can find jobs casually and do not have to farm to support themselves, then the whole society can be considered to be developed. ”

"And you see, how is China now? If you think about the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions where you are still relatively developed, and then compare the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions with ours, is there a gap? At least in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are still many textile factories and many workers, and in the southwest, there are still very few factories. However, if there is only a single agricultural economy such as farming, it is difficult to stimulate the development of the whole society. In some cases, in the event of droughts and floods, agriculture is easily affected, leading to more rebellions. ”

Chen Liqing saw that Yin Li was in thought, he paused slightly, and waited for Yin Li to digest these before continuing: "And in the military system, it is not easy to say in this regard. However, a few years ago, it was said that Ben defeated **, which is already very revealing. The army of this is definitely several times more than our national army, and these gaps are not comparable to the Beiyang army under Yuan Shikai, and there is even no comparable surname at all. ”

"Systemally, these things are now being explored by Sun Yat-sen's gang, and I don't know how to judge this, but just looking at the Meiji Restoration, the whole of them has been thinking about this issue, and after the Wuchang Uprising, our Chinese revolutionaries have only been recognized by everyone, and this gap is easy to see."

In fact, this is Chen Liqing consciously cultivating Yin Li, and what Yin Li said, he knew that Yin Li would not be able to digest it for a while, but if he said too much, Yin Li might also become a progressive young man. Now is the time when there is a shortage of talents, and it is good to have time and energy to cultivate more useful people.

It's just that Yin Li was not cultivated by him, but a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Okay, little brother in front, can you wait."

Following the voice, Chen Liqing and their group turned their heads and saw a group of people, who were also riding horses, but all of them were wearing military uniforms.

When he said this, with Chen Liqing's martial arts, he had already heard them following people, but he didn't deliberately lower his voice, but deliberately let the people behind him hear. Unexpectedly, there was indeed a sage among the crowd behind, and it seemed that he had really taken the bait.

And the person who appeared in front of Chen Liqing at this time, Chen Liqing, they also saw it clearly, it was a young man about twenty years old, with a round face, not very handsome, but his eyes gave people a sense of god.

"Little brother, thank you so much." As soon as this person came up, he looked at Chen Liqing.

"You are?" Chen Liqing didn't know this person, so he naturally had to ask first.

"Oh, look at me, I'm presumptuous, let me introduce myself first, my name is Li Zongren, this is my colleague Bai Chongxi, I just heard the little brother's thought-provoking remarks, take the liberty to ask, did the little brother say these words by himself, or where did he get them?" This person seemed to be very anxious, and after introducing himself, he immediately looked at Chen Liqing, wanting to know where Chen Liqing's words just now came from.

It's just that he didn't wait for Chen Liqing to answer immediately, but saw that Chen Liqing was stunned for a moment.

"You, you are Li Zongren...... White, Bai Chongxi? ”

After a long time, Chen Liqing's eyes widened, looking at the two young men in their early twenties in front of him, with a look of disbelief. (To be continued.) )
