Just when the three of them were frightened, there was another shouting of soldiers, and someone was heard saying: "Brothers, don't trespass, this is the station of the southern envoy, not a place to spread wild!" ”

"What kind of bullshit is that the southern envoy is not the southern envoy, Lao Tzu knows that Lord Yuan is our backbone, if he goes south, we will have no one to take care of, and when the time comes, we will not be able to eat or wear, it is better to rebel now!"

Between the shouts, many chaotic soldiers rushed into the house, Cai Yuanpei and the three of them all knew that Xiucai met soldiers, and there was a reason that it didn't make sense, they could debate with Lao Yuan, but when they met Master Qiu, who was not afraid of the ground these days, he really lost his temper, hurriedly blocked the door with a chair, and then jumped out of the back window, and then jumped over the low wall in the backyard and escaped from the hotel.

When the three of them arrived on the street, they found that the street was not very peaceful, there were riots everywhere, and the shouting was endless, Hu Hanmin looked at Cai Yuanpei and Wang Jingwei, and asked in a low voice: "Where should we go, there are riots everywhere!" ”

"Let's go, go to Yuan Shikai's mansion, I think there is no safer place in this Yanjing City than there!" As soon as Cai Yuanpei said this, Wang Jingwei secretly applauded, and the three of them went straight to Lao Yuan's mansion, and the embarrassed three saw Yuan Shikai again.

Lao Yuan saw the three of them apologize again and again: "Three envoys, the old man's discipline is not strict, these bastards are also lawless, they just looted everywhere, and they also disturbed you, the old man's sins, I will definitely strengthen discipline!" ”

"Mr. Yuan, this is Yanjing, the land of the first good, how can there be such chaos, don't you want to suppress it!"

"The best place? Isn't it going to be soon, people's minds have changed, and the old man really has no choice! ”

Cai Yuanpei and the three of them were silent, it seemed that Lao Yuan would say that he would not go to the south to take office, or talk to Nanjing first, the three of them said goodbye one after another, the corners of Lao Yuan's mouth showed a smile, and he still wanted to fight with Lao Yuan on this little point, it was really beyond his strength, but as an old-fashioned character, he would never understand that the most admired thing in constitutionalism is the rules, the dignity of the law is above all else, and the most precious rules were inadvertently thrown aside between the two sides fighting each other, and the Republic of China was completely destroyed in the process.

Cai Yuanpei had to report the situation to Nanjing, and the Senate in Nanjing fell into a quarrel again, some people agreed that Lao Yuan should take office in Nanjing, some people advocated Yanjing, and some people said that Lao Yuan would not come to the south, so it was better to let Li Yuanhong be the president.

The Senate in Nanjing was in a hurry, but the Sichuan Provincial Assembly was extremely solemn at this time, and one hundred and forty-three members gathered together, and today Qiao Yu is going to make a report on the political axe budget for the first time in the parliament, and it will be approved by the parliament, and it will finally take effect as a bill.

At the end of the late Qing Dynasty, he had already begun to study the preparation of fiscal revenue and expenditure plans in the West, but obviously there was no formal coming from Sichuan at this time, so all the parliamentarians had a sense of sacredness, while the Senate in Nanjing was still arguing over the issue of determining the capital, the Sichuan Provincial Assembly was planning the well-being of the Sichuan people in the coming year, and it was natural to have different moods when doing different things.

Even Qiao Yu took this official appearance very seriously, and deliberately chose a gray robe, which looked very chic and solemn, Qiao Yu rarely looked carefully in front of the dressing mirror, which made Lu Wanqing laugh constantly.

"Qiao Dudu, you are not a new daughter-in-law, is there still a beautiful woman in the council worth hooking up with if you look in the mirror like this?"

"My Miss Lu, why can't you think of something good, this is the first time I have gone to the parliament to make a budget, at least a group of sub-parliamentarians are staring at it, and at worst tens of millions of people in Sichuan are watching, if I make a mistake, it will be a shame!"

"Don't worry, there is no problem, the groom is not as particular as you!"

Lu Wanqing suddenly got up, took out a small sandalwood box from her pocket, and walked in front of Qiao Yu: "Governor Qiao, your only problem is that you look tender, those councilors are almost thirty years old, and there are still sixty or seventy years old, and it is easy to be overwhelmed without age advantage!" ”

"Miss Lu, don't you know what you have in mind?"

Lu Wanqing opened the wooden box, only to see a pair of gold tortoiseshell glasses inside, Lu Wanqing took the glasses and gently brought them to Qiao Yu.

"Miss Lu has bothered, Xiaosheng is grateful!" After saying that, Qiao Yu put his arms around the shoulders of the beauty, kissed her forehead gently, and then turned around and left, leaving only the stunned Lu Wanqing, when had she ever been so light, this damn guy, but the appearance of him wearing the glasses he chose was indeed more and more attractive.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the abdication of the Manchu Emperor and the rebirth of the Republic of China, although there are still various systems that have not been perfected, but from now on, the Republic of China will study hard from the Western powers and change our political axe functions, and the princes here are no longer high-ranking officials, but representatives of the people, and the officials of the political axe are no longer parents who oppress the people, but only public servants, who serve everyone, and if the people are not satisfied, they will be ousted from power at any time.

How can we change our functions to serve the people and satisfy them? In my opinion, this first step is the reform of finance, most of the past dynasties are taken from the common people, requiring the common people to support the emperor, down to the ordinary officials, the royal clans of all dynasties will occupy huge financial expenditures, become the biggest vampire in society, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty needs the people to support the Manchu family, this kind of squeezing to the extreme, and after entering the Republic of China, our finances in addition to maintaining the basic operation of the political axe, must be taken from the people, used for the people, the political axe is no longer just sucking the people's fat and people's ointment, Instead, we must use the wealth we collect to do things for the people and serve the society! ”

Since Qiao Yu came to power, he has advocated the use of vernacular in the work of the political axe, the political axe is not an academic institution, there is no need to show off the literary style, the main task is to make everyone understand, so his speech is also extremely straightforward, the parliamentarians and some reporters can hear it clearly, they know very well that this is Qiao Yu's general plan for the future governing strategy, everyone is thinking in their hearts, can the government and the people change their positions, so that the people are on top? Question marks are being drawn in everyone's minds, and they are more concerned about the allocation of specific financial funds.

"Princes, Sichuan's fiscal revenue in the 1912 fiscal year is expected to reach 32,745,020 taels, which is nearly 7,000,000 taels lower than that of the three years of Xuantong, mainly because of the abolition of centijin, the reduction of most of the excesses and miscellaneous taxes, and the reduction of land taxes.

Everyone heard this for a while, they thought that Qiao Yu wantonly cut the centigold, cut the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the income of Sichuan could reach more than 20 million taels and burn high incense, at least a half of the former Qing Dynasty, but where did they think that it was only reduced by seven million taels, it seems that after the abolition of the centijin, commerce and trade will be more prosperous, and the increase in commercial taxes will indeed contribute a lot to the finance!

"The income is not small, but the expenditure is also quite large, the salary and silver expenditure of the military and police should reach 6 million taels, the salary and office expenses of public officials should be around 2.7 million taels, and at the same time, in order to support education, promote basic education, and build Sichuan University, a total of 6.8 million taels will be spent!"

These councillors were immediately surprised when they heard this, this young governor is really a little different, others are eager to invest all their money in the army, this governor actually directly let the education expenditure exceed the military expenditure, it is really admirable!
