Chapter 47: Seeking Officials First and Doing Things Later (Asking for Recommendations, Asking for Collections)

"Xiang Shuai has decided!"

In the back hall of the Anti-Smoking Bureau, after a long silence, Tang Haoran came up with this sentence, what should come will always come,

And this seemingly endless sentence made Sang Zhiping's expression extremely embarrassed, which made him even regret taking this errand, and he nodded speechlessly.

"Actually, Ziran, as long as you follow Xiangshuai's meaning......"

Without waiting for Sang Zhiping to open his mouth to persuade him, Tang Haoran shook his head and said.

"Some things can be done, some things can't be done, Mr. Zhongzi, if it were for you to do it, would you do it?"

"This ......"

After a moment of silence, Sang Zhiping said.

"At least it's better than scraping the people's fat and ointment! Besides, become a great ......"

Sang Zhiping's words were interrupted with the smile on Tang Haoran's face, he knew that at least in this matter, even if there were thousands of reasons, he couldn't convince this young man, maybe this far-fetched reason could convince himself, but he couldn't say Tang Haoran, otherwise, how could he wait until today.

"After me, who will ......"

Originally, I wanted to ask who would take over the anti-smoking bureau, but before he finished asking, Tang Haoran sighed.

"Why are you still asking about this, anyway, in the future, this is another aftermath bureau, come on, Mr. Zhongzi,"

Raising his head, Tang Haoran looked at Sang Zhiping and asked.

"What errand is Xiang Shuai going to change for me?"

Tang Haoran asked rhetorically, not that he valued the next errand, more precisely, this rhetorical question was a bit mocking, in fact, many things have been figured out by him now.

Tang Haoran's words seemed to be sarcastic, and Sang Zhiping couldn't hear it, as Zhang Zhidong's friend, he explained it to Zhang Zhidong.

"Ziran, in fact, there are some things, you should also know that the reason why the imperial court supports Xiangtao to run foreign affairs is that on the surface foreign affairs are the first priority today, but in fact, the root is involved in the dispute between the imperial party and the post-party, in fact, it is the dispute between Qingliu and Xianghuai, and now there are many pairs of eyes in the world staring at Hubei and looking at Xiang Shuai, so Xiang Shuai has to be cautious in everything, it is this anti-smoking bureau, how many people are on the fold of Zi Ginseng Xiang Shuai? Do you know? ”

When Sang Zhiping explained, Tang Haoran just smiled bitterly, is this the reason? Just like the ban in the late Qing Dynasty, in just a few decades, it has become a "financial pillar", is it the reason to compete with "imports"?

How many questions did Tang Haoran have in his heart that he wanted to ask, but he finally stopped, now these things are no longer what he can care about, if he regrets it, he is more afraid that he regrets that he is too naïve.

"Xiang Shuai has the grace of knowing me, how can I not know!"

The ambiguous answer was heard in Sang Zhiping's ears, which made him sigh in his heart, there are some reasons, he can convince himself, but he can't convince Tang Haoran, the two have different positions.

"When I came, Xiang Shuai asked me to tell you a word, if you want to do great things in China, you must first be a big official, otherwise you can't do things in China!"

Staring at Tang Haoran, Sang Zhiping sighed.

"Ziran, if you want to do something, you must first be an official, first know what this officialdom is, and then you can get things done, otherwise it will be empty talk!"

If you want to do things, you must first be an official...... Sang Zhiping's words made Tang Haoran nod, perhaps, this is the sorrow of China, either be a big official to do big things, or join a big official to do things for him, this is the case, a hundred years later, China is not like this?

collusion between government and business......

I was really naïve, I didn't even see the simplest four words, and I even thought about wanting to do big things? Businessmen still need collusion between officials and businessmen, not to mention ......

"This matter should be ......"

After a pause in his voice, Sang Zhiping, who originally wanted to say "buy a lesson", swallowed back the words when he came to his mouth, although he admired Tang Haoran, it did not mean that he would sacrifice the interests of the proprietor for him.

"Ziran, today Prime Minister Yamen has a telegram!"

Prime Minister's Yamen?

His brows jumped slightly, and Tang Haoran looked at Sang Zhiping with some confusion.

"A copy of "Tai Xice" Everyone knows that you Tang Ziran knows the West very well, it is estimated that Li Hefei does not want you to help Xiang Shuai set up foreign affairs in Hubei, so he will pass the Prime Minister Yamen to transfer you to the Prime Minister Yamen on the grounds that you are connected to the West, Ziran, Xiang Shuai is not willing to let you go, but what the Prime Minister Yamen represents is the imperial court after all......"

Unwilling to put it, maybe for Zhang Zhidong, there is no better choice than this!

"If it weren't for Xiangshuai to be famous for Haoran, how would the world know Haoran's name? No matter where Haoran is in the future, he will not dare to forget the grace of Xiangshuai's acquaintance,"

I hope so! Thinking about it, Sang Zhiping took out a silver ticket from his sleeve pocket.

"Ziran, Xiang Shuai knows that you have no strengths now, although you only entered the curtain last year, but if you count the years, you will also be counted as two years into the curtain, this is the curtain ceremony that Xiang Shuai gave you, and it can be regarded as a little heart of the guest and host!"

Silver Ticket!

Looking at the silver ticket on the table, Tang Haoran wanted to refuse, but finally chose to accept the silver ticket, after all, whether it is to Beijing or anywhere else in the future, it will be inseparable from silver.

"Yo! Fifty thousand taels! ”

Picking up the silver ticket on the table, Tan Sitong said playfully.

"Looking at this country, in less than four months, you will get 50,000 taels of ceremonies, I'm afraid you Tang Ziran is still the first person! If this is counted by the day, this day will be, well, at least five hundred taels! ”

Tan Sitong's banter made Tang Haoran smile helplessly.

"Yes, the first one, but this is probably the last one!"

"Huh?"

Tan Sitong looked at Tang Haoran in surprise.

"You're not going to be in the shadow of anyone else?"

"Into the curtain?"

With a cold smile, Tang Haoran pointed to the back hall of the anti-smoking bureau and said.

"Do you want to come up with this immoral idea again, and make a wedding dress for someone else? I can't do it and I won't do it again! ”

Yes, never make wedding dresses for others again, and never be willing to be an insignificant staff.

"Ziran, then what are you going to do?"

Looking at the silver ticket, Tan Si said with the same joke.

"These 50,000 taels are estimated to be worth 1,500 acres of fertile land, if you have the idea of retreating, the beautiful house of the good land and the beautiful concubines in the family will be at ease!"

"...... Escape"

With a cold smile, Tang Haoran glanced out the window, can this world allow him to be at ease? Did you choose to give up because of such a little setback?

Four years, four years later, the war that will determine the next hundred years in East Asia will break out, will you just watch the defeat of the First Sino-Japanese War, watch the loss of 200 million taels of silver to Japan, and spend your life at home with your wife and concubine?

No, never!

"I'd like, but, resurrection, is this possible?"

"In that case, what are you going to do next?"

What to do?

yes, what to do?

Walking to the window, I could faintly hear the password sound coming from the school yard outside the window, thinking that they might not have anything to do with it!

Once upon a time, I was full of thought that I could take charge of the anti-smoking bureau, train a group of elite soldiers in the name of the special police, and even establish a steamship bureau in the name of running the Yangtze River shipping business, and when the First Sino-Japanese War came, the special police would be transferred by sea to Shandong and even Liaodong, even if the Japanese army could not be completely defeated, but maybe it would be able to reach a draw, so that Japan would not blackmail China in every way.

Now, this former fantasy seems to be nothing more than a joke, yes, a joke, as if it is a mockery of how naïve and naïve he is, if not, how can it be.

What's next?

If you don't want to go to Shanghai? With these 50,000 taels of silver, you may be able to do a career.

"What errand is Xiang Shuai going to let you do? It won't leave you idle, will it? ”

"I don't know if Li Hongzhang took the path of the Prime Minister's Yamen, I lost the errand of the Anti-Smoking Bureau, and fell into the errand of the Prime Minister's Yamen!"

Tan Sitong's question made Tang Haoran come back to his senses, and he told him about his errands one by one.

"Prime Minister's Yamen!"

When Tan Sitong was silent, Song Yuxin, who had just entered the house, said excitedly.

"That's a good job! Prince Qing presides over the Prime Minister's Yamen, although this Prince Qing is not as good as King Gong in the past, but this lord is the master of silver, since Ziran has the ability to make money, he can't be buried at that point! ”

Looking at Tang Haoran, Song Yuxin's whole person looked extremely excited, what he was excited about was not anything else, but he knew that the proprietor in front of him had the ability to make money, with the 50,000 taels of instruments given by Zhang Zhidong, he only needed to give him a few years, and it would not be a problem to put down a million family business, and who was that King Qing? That lord is a lord who recognizes silver and does not recognize people, as long as the proprietor is willing to make a capital, it will not be a problem to release a province, and besides, if you can count the share of King Qing, then it is not easy to release it, of course, these words can not be said now, and then put it forward when the time is ripe.

"If you want to do big things, you have to be a big official first, Ziran, first go to the Prime Minister's Yamen to work for two years, take the line of King Qing, maybe you can put a provincial governor in a few years, and when the time comes, you will become a feudal official, whether you want to ban smoking or do foreign affairs, it is military training, and it is not up to you!"

Song Yuxin's words fell on Tang Haoran's ears, but it was like a thunderous empowerment, yes, first become a big official, and then do big things, if you can become the governor of a province...... Even if you can't be the governor of a province, maybe, the capital can give yourself unexpected surprises.

Capital!

Beijing, it seems that Beijing is also a good choice!

(About the tobacco soil, I am speechless to explain here, the reason why the protagonist has a knot in his heart is that the protagonist has received decades of education, which makes it impossible for him to be like the officials and scholars in the late Qing Dynasty, who ignores the smoke and poison, and he can't sit back and watch the smoke and soil overflow, it is that he has not yet integrated into the table of that era, I think any modern person, crossing into another era, can not be decisive immediately, whether it is decisive or domineering, there is always a process, when Zhu Yuanzhang asked for food, Who would have thought that he would become the emperor and call the world a brother and brother, and who would have thought that he would kill heroes? Of course, the more important point is...... This is also to promote the next development needs of the novel, as for taking refuge in King Gong...... It's been six years since he stepped down, what to talk about, as for Li Hefei, well, it's just a character. The new book is being uploaded, and I hope you will continue to support the speechless, ask for recommendations, and ask for collections! The Rising Sun of the Empire Readers: 150536833)
