Chapter 31 The Red Eunuch Asks for Collections and Recommendations
Hearing that an errand was sent to the door, Eunuch Meng Li Meng was a little surprised, but more than that, he was puzzled, he arched his hand at Wu Shi and Ren Yijiang, and said lightly: "Mr. Wu, Brother Yichen, it's windy outside, if you have anything to say, please come into the house and say it." He made a gesture of resignation, and then walked first to his broken shack.
Wu Shi and Ren Yijiang glanced at each other, and followed one after the other. Although Eunuch Meng was also wide before, but he was kicked out of the palace, and the property accumulated over the years was not allowed to be taken out of the palace, so the broken shack can only be described as the four walls of the family, and there are no decent furnishings. There was only a broken wooden table with a missing leg and a brick cushion, and two benches with a broken wooden plank on it, and some tattered quilts on the bed. There are also three small benches, a stove with a fire. On the stove, there is still a kettle of boiling water. In addition, there was a smell of coaxing in the house.
Wu Shi frowned and didn't speak, but Ren Yijiang sighed: "The palace is too unreasonable, if you can't catch Xiaode Zhang being angry, you will take other people's apprentices...... But now it's all the Republic of China! Even Emperor Xuantong is just an ordinary citizen, so why confiscate people's hard-earned money? I thought I was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty! ”
Meng Li didn't answer, he moved a small bench and sat down, found a broken bowl and took a sip of some hot water, sighed, as if he was talking to himself: "It's just the king of the dead country, it's good to be able to save his life, and I'm afraid that this bit of glory in front of me is just a mirror...... What good can those mountains of goods do other than to harbor sin? ”
As soon as these words came out, Wu Shi and Ren Yijiang couldn't help but change their faces slightly, and they also admired this poor eunuch in their hearts. It's really worthy of seeing the world in the Forbidden City! I really have it in my belly......
Wu Shi smiled slightly, arched his hand at Eunuch Meng, and said with a smile: "Mr. Meng, I think you already know our intention, and to tell you the truth, the lord of our family just wants to take out some of the wealth in the hands of those Manchu widows, old and young, and use them in the great cause of saving the country and the people...... If Mr. Meng can help us with this, after the matter is completed, we and Mr. Meng will divide the account by seventy, how about it? ”
Meng Li smiled coldly, just shook his head: "I don't want money, I want officials!" What kind of lord of yours is the military leader of Beiyang, right? At a glance, Mr. Wu's temperament is a veteran of many years...... Thinking about such a person at the beginning, I, Xiao Mencius, have also seen a lot, and I can't hide it from me. You dare to fight Pu Yi's idea, it seems that the power is not small, I can follow you to fight the world...... In the future, if you become a great cause, you will also be a founding father, and you will get a graphic hero pavilion, Mr. Wu, can you see it? ”
Wu Shi nodded slightly, and praised in his heart: "What a Meng eunuch, it's not simple, it's a character!" I also know that there is such a thing as killing people and killing people! The thirty percent of the silver is pierced by the hand...... After the deed is done, if you want to survive, you can only join the gang and do it together. With such a brain, you may be able to have a good future in the future. ”
Thinking of this, Wu Shi arched his hand at Eunuch Meng, and said with a smile: "Brother surnamed Wu, single name is Shi, and now he is the deputy head of the Model Regiment of the 13th Division of the Army, if Brother Meng doesn't think our model regiment temple is small, I can call the shots and let you join, but I don't count the matter of being an official, we have to decide, or you can go with us and meet our Chang Regiment Leader, how about it?" ”
……
By this time it was the end of December 1916. After Chang Ruiqing returned to Beijing from Tianjin on a blind date, he immediately got the order to be promoted, his military rank became colonel, and his official rank became the commander of the model regiment of the 13th Division of the Army! It's the top of the petty warlords! Find another opportunity to "break through", you can enter the ranks of the great warlords, at this time it is only a few months since he graduated from the Baoding Military Academy...... The speed of this promotion, even in the turbulent times of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, can be regarded as fast.
After being promoted to regiment commander, Chang Ruiqing seemed to be a little corrupted, and he also followed the example of other Beiyang regiment commanders and battalion commanders, and bought a big mansion in the south of Beijing. It's just rented, not bought. Although our battalion commander is not proficient in the economic history of the Republic of China, he also knows that in this chaotic era, the houses in Beijing have been declining all the way. By no means like what Professor Lang said in later generations, buying a courtyard house in Beijing in the early years of the Republic of China can greatly appreciate its value...... This person probably hasn't heard of communism or anything?
Although he has a house in Beijing, Chang Ruiqing still soaks in the barracks all day long, busy with the expansion of the model battalion into a model regiment. However, at noon today, he suddenly received a phone call, and then he threw a mess of things to Bai Chongxi, Wang Junhao and Zhao Zhen, and brought Tang Jiu and Hu Roller Blinds by himself, and rode on a fast horse and ran in the direction of Beijing City.
In the afternoon, he was already in his house in Beijing, smiling and talking to a former eunuch about the truth of the Red Revolution.
"Comrade Meng Li, our red revolution, to put it simply, is that the rebellion is justified! It is incitement, uh, to incite the suffering slaves of the whole world to rise up and make the master's rebellion! Then build a world of great harmony where blessings are shared and hardships are shared! This doctrine has long been popular in foreign countries, especially among the European powers, that is, Mr. Sun Yat-sen's Three People's Doctrine, which in many respects also borrowed from their European Red Doctrine. However, Mr. Sun's Kuomintang is mainly engaged in by people with net worth, so there are many aspects that cannot be let go, and there are not many red things......"
Before Eunuch Meng came to see Chang Ruiqing, he had already found a bathhouse to wash himself, and Wu Shi paid for him to buy him a new set of clothes, and when he dressed up, he was really a handsome little guy with clear eyebrows. If you are born in a few decades, there is no problem in taking the exam for a Chinese opera, a drama or something.
Listening to Chang Ruiqing's revolutionary theory, Eunuch Meng also nodded frequently there, and echoed: "The Red Revolution sounds like a long-haired bandit...... Now that there are more people who are suffering, they can stir up a single percent and turn the sky upside down, but it's a pity that it's easy to share difficulties, and it's hanging to share blessings, otherwise Hong Yang Er's rebellion in the year of Tongzhi will enter Beijing, and the world won't be like this......"
Chang Ruiqing listened to him with a smile, then put away his smile, shook his head and sighed: "It's really rare for Mr. Meng to have this insight, this red doctrine does have this problem, when fighting the world, everyone is united, no one cares much about gains and losses, but it is really successful, and it is also necessary to fight for power and profit." ”
Meng Li sneered and waved his hand: "As long as there are a number of wealth and beauties in the world, it is impossible to share the blessings." But that's what the poor people who live in the eighteen layers of hell are to listen to! Everyone has a fluke mentality, fantasizing that they can become the founding father of happiness, instead of being a ghost under the sword. Commander Chang," Speaking of this, he suddenly lowered his voice and leaned forward slightly: "You are now the head of Beiyang, and you have a great future at your fingertips, wouldn't it be a bit worth the loss to make this red revolution?" In case something goes wrong......"
Chang Ruiqing provoked the thumb up in front of Meng Li and praised: "Mr. Meng is really a great sage hidden in the city, don't hide it from Mr., and still want the errand of the head of the Beiyang regiment." It's just that relying on a regiment and a brigade of soldiers, if you want to calm this troubled world, it is always a bit insufficient to dominate the world! ”
As soon as these words came out, Wu Shi, who was sitting next to Chang Ruiqing, also had his eyes shining, his boss's mind was the world! Won't he, the deputy commander, be the "deputy commander" in the future? In the future, it may be possible to go further......
"So Commander Chang wants to use the signboard of the Red Revolution to reform the life of the Qing Dynasty and get a military expenditure of millions or tens of millions of taels of silver?" Eunuch Meng looked at Chang Ruiqing and asked word by word.
