Chapter 81: Who Got on Whose Ship of Thieves
The new headquarters of Beijing Shunfeng Logistics is full of people. Since the beginning of the year, Shunfeng Logistics' business has become bigger and bigger, and the business of the dart bureau in Beijing has been much worse. Shunfeng Logistics later took over these dart bureaus, and after placing the original staff of the dart bureau, they took over the land and built this headquarters.
An old man came in through the door, although he was an old customer, but this was the first time he had come to this new headquarters. Looking at this unique hall, the middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh that the style of being the emperor is great.
Just looking at the hall, there are more than ten acres of land. In the middle of the hall, there is a round table with the words "Information Center" written on it. This is for the convenience of the first time to handle the business and are not familiar with the situation of people to prepare, here you can ask all the business handling methods, if you are troublesome, you can also do it to ask, here the beautiful service lady will not be afraid of you to tell you which counter to go next how to handle. On the left side of the hall is for consignment, and on the right is for receiving. The middle row of counters is the place to handle cargo inquiries, complaints and claims. Most of the people who go there are to inquire, not to mention that the goods of Shunfeng Logistics are rarely in trouble, not to mention that now everyone in the world knows that Shunfeng Logistics is the emperor's business, as long as there is no major situation, no one is willing to touch this mold.
As an old customer, he naturally knows the process of his own affairs, bypasses the "information desk" to the right side of the hall, and finds a counter with few people waiting in line to handle it.
"Whose idea was this, I remember the first time I came, but I was shocked. Leng didn't dare to come in. A middle-aged man in front of him said: "But don't say it, this is convenient and fast." ”
The old man smiled: "This is the emperor's inheritance, and it is naturally my emperor's sage." As he spoke, he didn't forget to clench his fists and bow to the Forbidden City.
"Miss, pick up the goods." The middle-aged man in front left, and the old man handed over a list.
He was greeted by a beautiful service lady: "This master, you wait a minute. The waiter took the order and walked to the shelf against the wall and looked for the tracking number.
After a while, the waiter came back with a list: "This master, your goods are in the No. 8 storage position of the No. 6 warehouse." You can pick up the order and you can pick it up. The smile on the waiter's face makes everyone feel happy.
In fact, the entire hall except for the security guards at the door are men, including the current lobby manager, all of whom have female surnames. Since ancient times, it has been said that women can't show their heads, but where can the poor people really care about this, they can't go on, and their own female dolls can also earn two dollars to help make up for the family, what's the bad? Two sets of clothes with good materials in the spring and autumn of a year is already very enviable, not to mention a salary of one or two silver per month. Are those literati students okay? Of course there is, but this is the emperor's business, except for saying a few excerpts, what else can it be. You said that at this time, the female dolls of poor families were illiterate? There is no problem, there is a Shunfeng logistics school in the capital, you can study in it for free, enter the Shunfeng logistics work after passing the exam, and deduct a penny of silver every month to pay the tuition, and deduct it for six months.
The old man came to the warehouse and showed the delivery stamp.
"This man, please get your car over here." The waiter leads the way in front. It's all hard work here, so it's all men.
When the truck was being loaded, several blue-eyed and blonde foreigners visited the working methods here under the leadership of the head of the headquarters.
The young man who was loading the car on the side whispered to the old man: "See, those foreigners are here to study." You said that these foreigners are too, there are people coming every day, so it's not annoying. have affected our work. ”
"Really? People come every day, right? ”
"Not really. I heard that these foreigners saw that we managed well and worked efficiently, so they didn't come to learn. is still the emperor wise, and he will let these foreigners worship as soon as he makes a move. Our 5,000-year-old Chinese civilization is not comparable to that of foreign devils. A sense of pride arose as he spoke. After speaking, he clapped his hands: "Master, your goods are loaded, you order." ”
The old man nodded, and did not forget to ask a few words while ordering the goods: "There is no problem, is it signed here?" Who taught you what you just said? ”
The young man pointed to the confirmation column on the slip and was a little embarrassed: "It's all taught in school." You can sign here. ”
After signing, the old man asked again: "Are you literate?" ”
"How can you not know! Every day after work, I have to go to school for an hour. The young man pointed to a young man who was squatting on the ground not far away and writing and drawing on a tree branch and said, "That guy failed the assessment last month, and his salary was deducted by almost half." As mentioned above, if you fail the assessment for three consecutive months, you will be expelled. It's not for the sake of salary, you have to study hard, you always say yes? The young man smiled and took the list, looked at the signature, and raised his head sharply: "You are Mr. Rong Hongrong, the principal of Beijing Normal University?" ”
Rong Hong nodded: "Young man, study hard." For the country to be strong and the nation to prosper, it is ultimately up to you young people. He patted the young man on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement. Turned around and walked back.
In order to tempt people to read. The high price of Shunfeng logistics has long made workers around the country red, but if you want to enter Shunfeng Logistics, you must first be literate. I work to be able to enter the Downwind Logistics. How many people are crowded into free schools to study, and there may be still a small number of people who go in. In this way, one place can drive ten or twenty people to study. But that's it, the original price of one tael of silver was mentioned as two taels. Nowadays, there are tens of thousands of people in Shunfeng Logistics.
The emperor said very little, but he was really putting the ideas in his heart into practice one by one. Not only Shunfeng Logistics, but also Dasheng Garment Factory, Northeast Railway Bureau, Asia Mining, Tianjin Arsenal...... Which factory doesn't have a school? Now that the British want to sign the right to build the Jiangnan Railway, the emperor has repeatedly explained that there must be an open school, otherwise he will never sign.
The country is poor and weak, and the emperor takes money out everywhere to subsidize it. Now for Tesla's laboratory, the palace has not been repaired for a year and a half, the eunuchs and guards have been reduced a lot, and the palace maids have been sent to work in the Beijing Normal Hospital. And he knows that the emperor's meal is only one dish and one meal left, and he often goes to Cining Palace to "eat and drink", thinking of this, Rong Hong couldn't help but shed two lines of turbid tears in his eyes.
Lin Yongxiang, who was standing in front of the window on the third floor, watched Rong Hong leave, and he frowned at the moment. He didn't understand why the emperor wanted to hand over the personnel information of the new army to Yue himself word for word.
Since the beginning of the month, I went to Shanghai to talk with Yu himself, and he said that he had first released the cargo ship that had been seized in Sasebo. Kotaro Munakata promised that as long as Lin Yongxiang could find out the situation of the new army personnel, then in return, all the goods of Zhang Pufang, a subordinate of Lin Yongxiang, would pass through the city unimpeded. Lin Yongxiang hurriedly reported the situation to the emperor through Zhou Qin, but he didn't expect the emperor to bring real information. Isn't this a leak to the enemy?
And Kotaro Munakata, who was sitting at the table, hurriedly opened the pages and hurriedly read them. At first glance, Kotaro Munakata couldn't help but be surprised. These pages of paper contain detailed descriptions of the establishment numbers, the number of personnel, and the names and positions of officers at and above the battalion level. It even includes a detailed list of staff and support personnel.
Originally, he was worried that Lin Yongxiang would mess with something to fool himself, at least it was chaotic. But now that it is so complete and complete, it makes him a little unbelievable. My heart was suddenly full of doubts.
"How did the big treasurer get this? Could it be that General Ouyang personally handed it over to you? Kotaro Munakata's face was full of doubts.
Lin Yongxiang took a deep breath and adjusted his mood. With a hint of disdain on his face, he said, "You and I are as stupid as you? I'm only a businessman, and I don't think I've inquired in such detail without making people suspicious. ”
"And how did you get it?" Kotaro Munakata stared at Lin Yongxiang's face, hoping to find something.
Lin Yongxiang sat down and took a sip of tea: "You are also thinking about it, in fact, it is as complicated as you think to get these things." Now the new army is training outside, and the imperial court really has no money. So I approached Prince Shiduo and offered to donate a batch of training uniforms to the newly built army in the name of Shunfeng Logistics Place. Don't you still want a list of officers? I also donated a set of officer uniforms to each battalion-level officer, and my reason is above board, no, the battalion office has issued me a list. Well, I'm still a little good at this job......"
I didn't expect to use this method to kill Kotaro Munakata. It's a reason that is really hard to refuse. After thinking about it carefully, this is also reasonable, but for a moment, it is hard to believe that it is so simple: "Big treasurer, these lists can't be fake, right?" ”
"How do I know? Do you want me to go to the new army to face a couple? After a while, you will go back to Liulichang to rummage, and you may be able to find the Beijing News half a year ago, which has a list of new army officers appointed by the imperial court, and you will know if you are right. ”
You don't have to go to the glass factory, Toshio Inoue should have this Beijing newspaper in his desk. Only when the local information obtained from different channels is verified by each other can the real surname of the information be guaranteed. Seeing that Lin Yongxiang was speaking so calmly at this moment, Kotaro Munakata also relaxed slightly, and just wanted to say a few words of thanks, but suddenly looked up and saw Lin Yongxiang looking at him with a strange expression.
"I'm done, Zongfang. You can't let me do things for you out of my own pocket. The total amount of money donated for quilts is 32,000 taels of silver, and I have already handed over this single job to Dasheng Garment Factory. When will you send this silver, and the big student will start work. ”
Kotaro Munakata's face suddenly turned red, and he wanted to have a seizure but couldn't. The entire empire was thrifty, and 32,000 taels of silver were given away by Lin Yongxiang so lightly. How much ammo can I buy...... Kotaro Munakata's face fell, if it weren't for the thought that he hoped to use Lin Yongxiang's line for a long time, he really couldn't help but be angry.
"Is this news worth my money?" Kotaro Munakata smiled coldly.
"It's said that I'm stingy, but I didn't expect it to be so stingy......" Lin Yongxiang glanced at Kotaro Zongfang and smiled slightly, "For the sake of the business in the future, I will reveal some gossip to you, first of all, I don't guarantee that this is true, this is also when I took the list, I heard the battalion officer complain a few words." As he spoke, Lin Yongxiang motioned to Kotaro Munakata to lean over: "I heard that the emperor asked the General Staff to draw up a plan, the first town of the new army will conduct a landing exercise on the Liaodong Peninsula, but the situation in the landing area is not clear. The staff and the sailors are in a war of words. ”
Kotaro Munakata suddenly became alert. If this news is true, then it means that this Lin Yongxiang can bring more inside information to the empire. Kotaro Munakata nodded, and didn't ask any more, these are enough, for him, Lin Yongxiang's role is in the future, let Lin Yongxiang inquire about the news just to set a trap for him, slowly put Lin Yongxiang into it, and finally pull him into the chariot of the empire.
"Please rest assured, the big treasurer of the silver, I will hand it over to you tomorrow." Kotaro Munakata clenched his fists and said, "I will open a warehouse in the capital, and there will be a shopkeeper for goods in the future." ”
"It's easy to say, everyone can make money." Immediately, Lin Yongxiang proposed: "I want to buy a batch of your guns." ”
"Your Majesty, the slave thinks it's so inappropriate. This is not to hand over all the details of himself, if he ...... in the future" Leng Jun, who had just returned from sending the list, didn't think it was right, and finally couldn't help but persuade Guangxu.
"You're overthinking. Come up with a real list so that it can be convincing. After Guangxu finished speaking, he smiled and signaled Leng Jun to come closer: "Let me tell you something, after the completion of this training, the new army will be reorganized according to the training situation, and the existing establishment numbers will also be cancelled and re-customized." In addition, it is impossible to cancel the landing exercises on the Liaodong Peninsula, so it is better to tell them in advance. This news is worth thirty-two thousand taels of silver. ”
Leng Jun left with confidence, but he was thinking in his heart: Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is really ...... Hey, don't be so tricky.
But Guangxu doesn't think so, it's okay as an exchange. At least the investigation of this shipping waterway will be less resistant. Yue Ben thought that he had won over a small man, but who knew that Guangxu's hand also reached into Yue Ben through the spy of Yue Ben. A large number of Chinese spies secretly lurked under Zhang Pufang's men. Thinking of this, Guangxu couldn't help but laugh dumbly: who got on whose thief ship in the end.
