It can be said that in this transaction, Germany gave more than a dozen factories to Sichuan, including heavy industry and military industry, plus the Yucheng Iron and Steel Plant, Sichuan basically has a very rough industrial system, but these factories are also seriously shrunk, the scale is generally not large, and the latest technology is also ten years ago, it will take at least two years to build these factories, Qiao Yu calculated that it will not be completed until the First World War at the earliest, and put into production.

Of course, the price is not cheap, Sichuan borrowed 30 million marks from Germany for factory construction, this loan is all offset by agricultural and mineral products, and it is also mortgaged by Sichuan's taxes, it seems that Germany used some old machines that were supposed to be eliminated, and backward technology replaced Sichuan's housekeeping things, it seems that Germany took advantage, but Qiao Yu knows very well in his heart that resources are valuable, and the system is priceless, after entering the industrial age, the most precious thing is the industrial system, which is also the ability of the great powers to look after the family, It is very difficult to introduce a full set, that is, the big war is coming, and it can be exchanged.

The Germans may not regret this decision, and they would never have imagined that a few decades later a world factory would rise on the land of the East, and the industrious and intelligent Chinese would crush the entire Western world with their powerful industrial production capacity.

Most of these factories are placed in Yucheng, a port with convenient transportation, only the explosives factory and the electronics factory are placed in Chengdu, after Yang Du arrived in Sichuan, he saw the busy scene of Chongqing, and he was very emotional, although the Beiyang political axe has unified the country, but now it has been pressed by financial problems, and Lao Yuan is now talking about the problem of borrowing money for the aftermath, but it is also difficult, and it has not been able to negotiate for a long time.

Beiyang has no spare money to carry out any industrial construction, and a small local political axe in Sichuan can throw off its arms and vigorously develop industry, which is really an outlier, and Yang Du's wisdom cannot be completely seen.

In fact, Qiao Yu has found the best opportunity, in the external European powers to expand the arms war, Yuben and the United States have not yet become a mature imperialist country, especially Yuben is still paying off debts for the Russo-Russian War, there is no spare strength to extend to the Chinese mainland, and although the Chinese side is because of several large-scale reparations, coupled with the Manchu Qing Dynasty's looting and poverty, there are still some foundations for hundreds of years, there are no longer a few big businessmen with a net worth of millions, and there is still a lot of silver among the people.

With capital, Sichuan is a large agricultural province and rich in resources, so it is still very easy to develop industry, it can be said that Germany will not provide technology at all a few years earlier, and it will interfere in a few years later, and the time of the Xinhai Revolution is just above such a node.

Although Yang Du was on a mission, he also stayed in Yucheng for two days, and wanted to estimate the heritage of Sichuan, but in these two days, Sichuan had undergone some changes, and Yang Shukan, minister of public security, personally announced that Sichuan's large-scale anti-bandit operation had come to an end, and the operation had achieved great results, and the bandits in Sichuan had been basically eliminated.

The work of suppressing bandits was personally instructed by Qiao Guangyuan, and it had been carried out in the whole province before Qiao Yu marched into Tibetan Province, and bandits from all over the country frequently fell off the horse, there were bandits who had been entrenched for decades, and there were also water bandits who had been in trouble for decades, at first the common people did not understand, a Sichuan army suppressed bandits this time as before, it was thunder and rain, and the bandits would become more intense after the officers and soldiers left, and it was not good that these officials and masters would rob again, so they were very resistant to the Sichuan army.

However, with the Sichuan army exterminating the bandits one by one, the common people gradually gained confidence, and soon the bandits in the hinterland of Sichuan were basically eliminated, some landlords were armed, gang forces, hooligans and ruffians, and the bureaucrats who were in collusion with these bandits were all within the scope of the crackdown.

At first, everyone was worried that the officials and soldiers would disturb the people, who knew that these soldiers lived in tents, basically did not encroach on the houses, even if they occasionally occupied, they would be rewarded, and the trade was very fair, and gradually the Sichuan people stood on the side of the army, took the initiative to help the army lead the way, transported materials, and with the support of the people, the bandits in Sichuan quickly disintegrated and disappeared.

Especially after the flood in southern Sichuan, Qiao Yu personally stationed the embankment, which made his prestige among the people unprecedentedly increased, and the people also began to believe that this army was for their own good, so the speed of the march was much faster, the bandits in southern Sichuan and eastern Sichuan were cleared successively, and the bandits in western Sichuan were also eliminated with Qiao Yu's march into Tibetan Province, and the rest was that there were still some bandits in northern Sichuan.

This is the junction of Sichuan and Gansu, Shaanxi, and Hubei, and these places are places with high mountains and deep waters, since ancient times, it is a place where the people are fierce and bandits are rampant, these bandits have occupied here for I don't know how many years, every river, every mountain beam is clearly felt, and the points are exactly the same, and the officers and soldiers come to suppress the bandits, as long as they hide in the mountains and hide in it for a period of time, the officers and soldiers will naturally retreat.

However, this time their old methods were not easy to call, and the surnames of the officials and soldiers were unexpectedly good, and the landlord Haoqiang, who hooked up with them, also automatically cut off contact with them, and many locals took the initiative to help the officials and soldiers guide the way, compressing their living space uncontrollably.

"Big dragon head, yesterday more than a dozen brothers were killed by the official army, they have a very elite small army, as long as they are targeted, most of them will lose their heads, I have been a stick for half my life, I have never seen such an evil surname of the official army, why don't you say they will withdraw?"

The one who spoke was a strong man in his thirties, with a beard on his face, two long and short guys on his body, and a machete on his back, at first glance, he was a fierce general, and there was a young woman in her early twenties standing opposite him, don't look at this person as a woman, but her body was full of murderous energy, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were all heroic, she was a famous female bandit in this area, and the bandit was called Manshan Hong, but at this time she was also frowning.

"Erhu, how are the other groups?"

"Don't mention it, the group of people who are the big dragon head usually look okay, how do you know that they are all embroidered pillows, and they have been exterminated by others, this time the officers and soldiers are really ruthless, they don't recruit at all, as long as they catch the light labor reform, and the heavy ones are shot directly, they can change their skins to be officers and soldiers in the past, but now all roads are blocked!" As soon as he said this, dozens of embarrassed little bandits around him also looked embarrassed.

Man Shanhong lowered his head and thought for a long time: "Brothers, I think Sichuan can't be mixed up here, I think we might as well break through, I'm going to pull to western Hubei, where the terrain is more rugged, and the government is not as powerful as Sichuan, with our dozens of guns, we can still open up the situation!" ”

As soon as the other little bandits heard that the dragon head gave such a proposal, many people had some thoughts in their hearts, the conditions in western Hubei are much worse than those in Sichuan, and those who are not familiar with the place can mix well, but what can they do if they don't leave, the original team of hundreds of people is now only left with these dozens of people, if they meet the official army again, I am afraid that it is not enough for people to stew!

While everyone was thinking about it, suddenly there was a gunshot, and there was a transparent hole above the tall Erhu head, and the huge body fell to the ground with a thud.

"Big dragon, you should withdraw first, we are here!"
