Chapter 17 Election of the Chamber of Commerce
Yang Shukan never expected Qiao Yu to turn his face so quickly, he was trembling with anger, and he wanted to rush over and strangle Qiao Yu to death, but this is Qiao Yu's territory, Yang Shukan still maintained a trace of sobriety, did not come to Hu, turned around and left!
"Childe, do you want to send Yang Shukan to the official mansion, or get rid of him, otherwise he will definitely try his best to take revenge on you!"
Wang Tianhe kept staring at Yang Shukan, as long as he dared to make a bad move, he would take him down, but Yang Shukan was also interesting, so he let him leave.
"Tianhe, I also pointed out that they would disturb the world, if there were no them, would the yamen be willing to hand over the power to me, but these people are not enough to succeed and more than to lose, you choose one or two shrewd young guards, let them mix in the alliance,; Keep an eye on their movements, and keep your defenses tense everywhere. ”
Wang Tianhe nodded yes, and hurriedly arranged it, Qiao Yu couldn't stop calculating, Yang Shukan was so anxious to get money, it can be said that the uprising of the alliance was already very urgent, although these people were a rabble, but it was enough to mess up the world, and he had to speed up his pace and quickly accumulate strength, otherwise he would be passive.
After Qiao Yu made up his mind, he accelerated the pace of training the guards, and he was also careful everywhere, he actually had the intention of cooperating with the League and overthrowing the Qing Dynasty first, but after thinking about it a few times, he gave up, the League will have a serious party atmosphere, and it is basically impossible to transform it into a modern political party, if it is integrated into it, it will inevitably not affect the purity of his team, so Qiao Yu followed the opportunity of Yang Shukan's visit to completely separate the two sides.
In the next month, Qiao Yu was busy and dizzy, and he had to spare a lot of time every day to train the juvenile guards, these teenagers after a period of big fish and meat, their physical condition has obviously improved, in the end, they are young, they seem to be a little upward, and they also have meat on their bodies, and their physical fitness has improved quickly, coupled with strict queue training, they have been able to initially achieve the order and prohibition, and the progress is much faster than imagined, the quality of these teenagers is very good, and there is no large-scale situation where even the left and right are not clear. The teenagers' learning ability is also good, training queues during the day, and Qiao Yu will also let Mr. teach them to read and write at night, after a month, some of the flexible minds have been able to recognize two or three hundred words, seeing the progress of the escort team day by day, Qiao Yu is very happy.
German machines are also being shipped, garment factories, printing and dyeing factories have officially started, and Buscht has already shipped weapons over, a total of 300 Mauser 98 rifles, this is a real Mauser 98 rifle, not the 1888 commission rifle bought by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Buster knew that Qiao Yu was studying in Germany, and he also studied military affairs, so he had no intention of deceiving him, so the goods shipped were genuine.
In addition, there are a hundred Mauser rifles, that is, the famous box guns, this weapon is not a perfect weapon, but in modern Chinese history, it is a strong stroke, also known as barge guns, box guns, large mirrors, etc., from these nicknames it is enough to see that this weapon is widely circulated, the degree of influence is deep, but this weapon is not very popular in the West, the price is high, as a pistol and too big, as a submachine gun and can not restrain the problem of muzzle jumping, it can be said that it is not up or down, very embarrassing.
In fact, in the era of warlord melee, China's import of advanced weapons is restricted, this pistol is not in the restricted ranks, and it is powerful, it can be fired in a single shot, in addition, China's war mode is not the same as that of the West, the combat mode of the large corps is not the same, surprise attack, ambush and other combat modes can maximize the value of this weapon, and this pistol has repeatedly made meritorious contributions in the War of Resistance.
Qiao Yu's choice of this pistol is not only a little nostalgic, but also based on the opponent's considerations, if you want to control Sichuan, in addition to confronting the Beiyang, the Dian Army, the Revolutionary Party, etc., it is more about fighting with local scattered armed forces, as well as bandits, and then completely control the place, Qiao Yu hopes to train the Young Guards into special forces, use them to deal with these forces, and perform some tasks to defend the escort, so this weapon has become the first choice.
In addition to rifles and pistols, Busch also shipped two Makqin heavy machine guns, two or four Madsen light machine guns and more than 100 boxes of ammunition.
"Joe, do you like these machine guns?"
"Mr. Buschte, I didn't order these weapons, aren't you afraid that I won't pay for them?"
"Haha, no, you're an ambitious person, you'll love these weapons, and your political axe is so incompetent, it's impossible to get you in trouble because of this."
Qiao Yu did not answer Buster's words, but gently rubbed these cold metals, Qiao Yu seemed to be able to see the future opponents being swept by the machine guns in pieces, and in a trance, those people turned into Oriental squirts.
"Bushit, I have now become a police consultant in Yucheng, and it has become my duty to train patrol officers, I hope you will provide me with another batch of weapons, the more rifle bullets the better!"
"Joe, I can only do my best, the Mauser 98 rifle is not fully equipped in my home country, I will do my best for other weapons, but I hope to increase the number of machines we order, I heard that you have made an agreement with the British to import a batch of machines from them!"
"That's right, Mr. Buscht, you must know that the influence of the British in China is much greater than that of your Germany, and I have not rejected the strength of the British, this is also a last resort, I hope you can understand, in addition I am going to set up a machine repair factory, and then build a technician training school!"
As soon as Buscht heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, especially the issue of technical training schools, if Germany can occupy an important position in the school, there is no doubt that there will be a pro-German force in the industrial circles of Yucheng in the future, and once these technicians receive German teaching, then the possibility of their factories buying German machines will increase a lot, and with the improvement of status, Buscht's vision has also become broader. No longer just staring at the small amount of money, I am more and more aware of the value of this long-term investment.
"Joe, leave it all to me, Germany will definitely be your best choice!"
"My friend, I believe that soon my status will change dramatically, and then our cooperation will be even greater, and the vast Sichuan will definitely open its arms and welcome friends who are really willing to cooperate!"
Bust also felt a strong self-confidence from Qiao Yu's words, this self-confidence is not for no reason, with several factories put into production, with Sichuan Investment Company as the core, the new interest chain has pulled more and more people into it, the buyer's market in the late Qing Dynasty and later generations is just the opposite, due to the lack of goods is a typical seller's market, in the later generations of large supermarkets can easily bully some weak suppliers, and now the suppliers occupy an absolute advantage.
Qiao Yuxing's factory product quality clearance, due to proper management, the cost is well controlled, and foreign goods will cost considerable freight, the competitive advantage is far less than the southeast, Sichuan, especially around Yucheng, large and small businessmen want to catch the line of Sichuan Investment Company, can become a regional agent, in exchange for huge profits, the greater ambition is to prepare to jointly set up a factory, don't look at the Sichuan Investment Company has less than 20 shareholders, but it can be said that most of the businessmen have begun to fall to this circle of interests.
It is precisely because of the control of these, Qiao Yu for ten days later Yucheng Chamber of Commerce election appeared full of confidence, Yucheng Chamber of Commerce was established in 1905, after the establishment of this due to the late Qing Dynasty New Deal, the Chamber of Commerce developed rapidly, the power is also rapidly expanded, due to the incompetence of the Qing political axe, unable to control the locality, so a large part of the grassroots administrative power fell into the hands of the Chamber of Commerce, as mentioned above, Zhang Jian has a certain armament is actually in the name of the Chamber of Commerce.
Now the president of the Yucheng Chamber of Commerce is Li Yaoting, the old man made a fortune by operating the ticket number in his early years, and became the leading businessman in Yucheng, but as the old man grew older, the ticket number began to weaken, and due to the rise of Qiaoyu Group, the business pattern of Chongqing has undergone great changes, and the old man Li Yaoting has the intention to retire from the position of president.
At this time, there are not many people who have the ability to compete for the president, in terms of prestige, financial resources, and popularity, it is nothing more than Bai Kuan, Wang Dongcheng, Huang Million is just a few people, Qiao Yu is still too young, so it is not like competing for this president, but it is bound to support his uncle Bai Kuan, and Wang Dongcheng and others have formed an alliance with Qiao Yu, so Bai Kuan's only remaining opponent is Huang Million, and now Bai Kuan's advantage is too obvious, so it is not difficult to win the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce in one fell swoop.
