In the building of the municipal axe, Liao Zhongkai was resting in the room arranged by Chen Kan.

The so-called tiring journey, although Liao Zhongkai didn't take a few steps along the way, but he was stuck on the passenger ship, Liao Zhongkai still felt a sense of powerlessness all over his body, so after entering the room arranged by Chen Kan, Liao Zhongkai first took a hot bath comfortably, and then lay down on the bed and slept comfortably.

Perhaps it was a coincidence that just five hours after Liao Zhongkai arrived, the people sent by Yuan Shikai also arrived.

After getting the news, Chen Kan, who was waiting for Yan Guang to return in the building, hurriedly took a carriage to greet him again.

When Chen Kan picked up Yang Du into the carriage and the vehicle was driving on the street that he had just passed a few hours earlier, Chen Kan asked with a smile.

"Mr. Huizi, what do you think of Yucheng?"

In his early years, Yang Du once went to Yuben at his own expense from his teacher Wang Minyun to study in the crash course of teachers at Tokyo Hongwen Academy, and even the acquaintance of Huang Xing and Sun Yat-sen was introduced through him (the two were classmates at the time), so after looking at the street scene outside through the car window, Yang Du nodded and praised.

"Although Yang has also seen it in the photo, but at this time, I found that Yucheng is much more beautiful than in the photo, especially the clean streets, if it weren't for the different scenery, Yang would have thought that he was back in the book." Whether it is Shu Bao or some of the information provided by Britain and himself, there are photos of the two cities of Chongqing and Chengdu, and it is through these photos that Yuan Shikai, Yang Shiqi, Yang Du and other strategists can have a more intuitive understanding of the Kuomintang Socialist Party and Yan Guang.

However, when he saw the photos, Yang Du, who couldn't believe it, thought that the cameraman had missed the bad places and specially picked those good places to shoot, so this time he came with some thoughts of seeing is believing, but when Yang Du arrived in Yucheng, he knew that Yucheng today is obviously more beautiful than the photos he saw a few months ago.

However, Yang Du is still a little strange, in his opinion, as long as he is willing to invest money, then it is not a simple thing to build a beautiful city, but it is not a difficult thing, but now when I look at Chongqing, in addition to the new streets and buildings, the whole city is also exceptionally clean compared to Shanghai and Yanjing, which is not something that money can do...

After hearing Yang Du's question, Chen Kan smiled and said what he had just said to Liao Zhongkai to Yang Du again.

After learning the truth, Yang Du and Liao Zhongkai's reactions were completely different.

Yang Du can be said to be a pragmatist through and through, in other words, in his opinion, the important thing is not the process but the efficacy. So after listening to Chen Kan's answer, Yang Du just said with a smile. "It's really a good idea, I'll suggest it to Gong Bao when I return to Yanjing." It's only early May, and Yuan Shikai is only the interim president, so Yang Du still calls him Gong Bao, but when it comes to October, I'm afraid he will have to change his name.

At this time, after a period of driving, the carriage also stopped in the courtyard of the Municipal Axe Building.

"Mr. Huizi has worked hard all the way, do you want me to arrange a place to rest for you first?"

After the carriage stopped in the courtyard, Chen Kan said to Yang Du, who looked tired.

After being entrusted by Yuan Shikai as a representative, Yang Du first took a train to Hankou via the Jinghan Railway, and then transferred to a passenger ferry to Yucheng, which was much harder than Liao Zhongkai. However, after listening to Chen Kan's words, Yang Du just smiled.

"Didn't Mayor Chen just say that Governor Yan was already on his way back? In this case, Yang will wait for a while. ”

"So..."

Since Yang Du insisted so much, Chen Kan couldn't reluctantly say it.

"Then I'll take Mr. Huizi to the conference room first, and I'll let you know when the governor returns."

Yang Du nodded. "It's fine."

Chen Kan also knew that it was not appropriate for Liao Zhongkai and Yang Du to meet at this time, so after getting Yang Du's consent, Chen Kan took him to the conference room.

After entering the conference room, because he was idle, Yang Du asked Chen Kan for a lot of local newspapers in Sichuan for recreation.

At present, the two provinces of Sichuan and Guizhou have implemented a system of censorship, and the news published by newspaper offices must be examined by the personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stationed in the newspaper on the day before it is published. Of course, at the beginning of the implementation of the system, there were many people who opposed it, and even Deng Xiaoke personally went to the Governor's Mansion to find Yan Guang to express his opposition. However, when Yan Guang said that this was just to prevent the leakage of political axe secrets, and the editors-in-chief and reporters of major newspapers also found that some manuscripts commenting on political axes could still be published, the voice of protest gradually disappeared. However, it is precisely because of this that there is absolutely no "news" that may leak information in the newspapers of the Sichuan Gui Newspaper today.

didn't know this, Yang Du was still looking for useful information in the newspaper, but unfortunately, in addition to some news that ordinary newspapers were quoting, he only saw those disgusting words praising Yan Guang how "great Guangzheng".

Looking at those disgusting words praising Yan Guang, Yang Du felt a little sick to his stomach, and finally had to throw the newspaper away from him.

But thinking back to what I just saw in the newspaper, I didn't know that these were all blessings thanks to news censorship, Yang Du just said in his heart. "The newspapers are all such sensual comments, and I don't know what kind of character this Yan Guang is?"

didn't know that Yang Du was curious about himself, Yan Guang was just playing with a model of a 210 mm caliber howitzer sent by Liu Huixue in the name of the employees of the whole arsenal. Because it is a gift to Yan Guang, this model is extremely exquisite, and Yan Guang loves it very much.

After playing with the model for several hours, Yan Guang's carriage finally entered the city surrounded by hundreds of cavalry.

"Dudu, you're finally back."

After learning that Yan Guang was back, Chen Kan hurriedly walked out.

"Where is that Liao Zhongkai now?"

"I'm resting in my assigned room right now." Saying that, Chen Kan hurriedly said. "Also, the people from Yuan Shikai's faction have also arrived."

"It's already there?" Yan Guangleng, who was originally going to see Liao Zhongkai, took a look.

Chen Kan nodded, Yang Du arrived by Yan Guang on the way back. Although there is a wireless telegraph now, the telegraph obviously cannot be loaded on the carriage, so Yan Guangzhi still doesn't know the news that Yang Du has come.

"So..."

Yan Guang thought carefully before he spoke.

"Since Yang Du is also here, then I'll go see Yang Du first..."

"Don't you see that Liao Zhongkai?"

"Didn't you say that Liao Zhongkai is resting now? In that case, then I'll see Yang Du first, and then I'll see him. ”

Hearing Yan Guang say this, Chen Kan nodded, and then walked towards the direction of the conference room with Yan Guang.

"But Mr. Yang Huizi?"

Pushing open the door of the conference room and looking at the thin young man aged 3 or 40 who was sitting on a chair and reading the newspaper inside, Yan Guang asked with a smile.

Seeing Yan Guang walking in from outside the room, Yang Du also hurriedly put down the newspaper and got up.

"It's down there, you're the Governor of Yandu."

When he said this, Yang Du was also surprised by Yan Guang's youth.

After the two of them sat down, Yan Guang arched his hand towards Yang Du.

"Mr. Huizi's name Yan can be said to be famous for a long time, and it is really like a rumor when I see it today."

"Where, where, in the next is the name of the long-admiring Yan Dudu..."Hearing Yan Guang say this, Yang Du also hurriedly replied politely.

After more than ten minutes of greetings back and forth, Yang Du stepped into the topic.

"Governor Yan should know Yang's intention."

When it came to business, Yang Du sat up straight and stared at Yan Guangdao.

"I can guess some."

"Since Governor Yan has already guessed something, then things will be easy to do. Presumably, Yan Dudu also knows about the outside world, and now Yang is ordered by Gong Bao to come here, just hoping that Yan Du Du can stand on the side of Gong Bao in this matter..."In the end, the call for solving it with law in the Kuomintang is still relatively loud, so Yuan Shikai just wants to suppress this matter, and then weaken the strength of the Kuomintang, so he has not thought about completely flattening the Kuomintang in one go, so he sent Yang Du this time only to hope that he can stand on the side of Beiyang in this incident. At least don't go to the Kuomintang.

Of course, Yan Guang can't help Yuan Shikai, if he does this, even if Yuan Shikai does too much in the future, I'm afraid that the people of the Kuomintang will not have the courage to set off a second revolution, but if it is only neutral, it is in line with Yan Guang's ideas.

However, although he thought so in his heart, he still rubbed with Yang Du for a long time, and waited until nearly two hours later before Yan Guang asked Chen Kan to arrange a place for Yang Du. Let him rest for a while, and then continue to discuss this issue tomorrow.

However, when Yang Du was led to rest by Chen Kan's secretary, Yan Guang walked towards Liao Zhongkai's resting place under the leadership of Chen Kan himself.

At this time, Liao Zhongkai was sleeping in the room in a daze, but he still got up when he heard a knock on the door.

"Who?"

Maybe it's been a long time since I've slept so comfortably, but when he said this, Liao Zhongkai actually had a feeling that he was actually at home.

But before this feeling lasted long, Chen Kan outside the door had already spoken.

"Mr. Liao, our family governor is back."

"Governor?" Liao Zhongkai was stunned for a moment, and then recalled what his mission was this time. "Wait a minute." said this first, and then after tidying up his clothes a little, Liao Zhongkai opened the door.

"You're Mr. Liao, aren't you? Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! ”

After Liao Zhongkai opened the door, Yan Guang, who was standing outside the door, held Liao Zhongkai's hand and shook it again and again.

"Are you the Governor of Yandu?"

"Exactly."

Looking at Liao Zhongkai, who was a little stunned, Yan Guang said with a smile on his face.
