Tianjin, General Headquarters of the Chinese Revolutionary Army.

Yan Fu was sweating profusely, and hurriedly rushed into the office building, so he couldn't greet the guards who saluted him more along the way, nodded his head indiscriminately and crossed over, and finally came to the top floor outside Yang Hao's office.

Zhou Jianhao came out and welcomed him into the waiting room, and turned around and left without saying anything. Yan Fu was anxious, and just wanted to pull him to interrogate, when he suddenly saw another person sitting there drinking tea with a bitter face in the corner of the sofa, it was another party leader, Tan Sitong.

Seeing that Yan Fu had finally discovered himself, Tan Sitong stood up and smiled: "Brother Dao, are you here too?" Let's let the little brother guess first, what is it for making you so flustered? ”

Yan Fu shook his head with a wry smile, returned the salute and stepped over to sit down on his side, sighing, "Do you still need to guess?" It was nothing more than the sale of ship-building equipment to the great powers. It seems that we are afraid that we will think of a piece. How? Your brother has also been hung here for the commander-in-chief? ”

Tan Sitong raised the teacup: "But let the little brother drink a pot of tea to cool off before talking." A few brothers came just in time, hurry up and help me drink all the tea, and you and I can also ask him face-to-face as soon as possible. ”

"Tea?"

Yan Fu looked down at the mellow green tea in the clear glass teapot, and his chaotic mood suddenly cleared, as if he had thought of something. After being stunned for a while, he raised his hand and let Tan Sitong pour him a bowl, and drank it slowly, feeling that the heat that permeated the chest and throat had dissipated a lot.

"Good tea, clear your heart and go to the fire, and cool off the heat."

Yan Fu loosened his tie. Leaned his body on the back of the sofa and slowly leaned on it. Fold your hands in front of your lower abdomen. The two thumbs quickly intertwined with each other, and the slightly squinted eyes looked at the crystal chandelier above through the lenses, and it seemed that they were not in a hurry at all.

Tan Sitong smiled slightly, and sighed leisurely: "It seems that a few brothers also understand." The commander-in-chief let me know that everything that everyone was worried about was in his hands, and there was no need to be anxious to ask the teacher for the crime. Especially since you and I are the leaders of the party, we should be the same as this tea. Always calm down, not reckless, so as not to cause misunderstandings and contradictions in a hurry. ”

Yan Fu nodded slowly: "The resurrected brother is reasonable. ”

The two of them actually came for the instruction issued by Yang Hao.

In the minds of all Chinese people today, it is extremely important for the navy and land forces to be able to defeat the great powers, and to have sharp armor and advanced weapons. No matter where Yang Hao got it, in short, he could form an absolute superiority over the great powers, which was a necessary condition for ensuring the success of the revolutionary cause and the country's prosperity, strength, and independence.

The so-called sharp weapon of the country should not be shown lightly. So advanced battleship artillery or something. You can't even show it to the enemy, let alone sell it.

Previously, Yang Hao coerced and lured the foreign devils to buy many sets of army equipment starting with 100,000 pieces. He also gave the Qing court a full 40 million taels of arms, which has made many people feel dissatisfied, and secretly criticized Yang Hao's nature as a businessman, which is comparable to the eight emperors of Shanxi who betrayed the Ming Dynasty.

But the continuous victories have always made it impossible for everyone to make a fuss about this-

Don't look at the people from all walks of life on the surface who are amazed by Yang Hao's series of groundbreaking knowledge and thoughts, but the kind of problem in his bones that there is no first and no second has never changed. To tell the truth, they are not convinced, and always want to find out a little selfish flaw to criticize and talk about themselves.

Since ancient times, the younger generations have liked to find fault with the sages of the previous generation and show off their abilities. In this world Internet era, enjoying the precious peaceful life of the revolutionary martyrs in exchange for their blood and sacrifice, not only do not think about gratitude, but try their best to find some rumors that are not relied on to prove the imperfection of the martyrs; Sitting in an air-conditioned room, imagining that the ancestors of the war years did not love peace, they used their greed for life and fear of death to pour sewage ...... on the martyrs who sacrificed their lives and forgot to die. Pick up the bowl to eat meat, put down the chopsticks and scold the mother, what a special thing!

In China at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were far more stubborn and arrogant forces than after decades of revolution. Although it has not yet reached the point of being arrogant to the point of burying the fate of the entire country and the nation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, they still hold the pride of "everyone is drunk and I am sober".

For Yang Hao, the great leader, there are many people who are not convinced. Secretly, I don't know how many people mutter, "If I live in the West for many years, I must see it more clearly than he sees." The problem is that no one is stopping him from going out now, and even Yang Hao has set up a sponsorship fund for international students and an overseas trade promotion association to encourage Chinese people to bravely go out and see the true face of the world.

These people refused to admit that they were holding on to their inadequacies and did not want to forge ahead, shaking their small fans and shaking their heads and declaring: "What is there in the kingdom of China, why go to the beast-like Yangyi to see what diorama." ”

At the end of the day, it's useless.

There are even some careerists who fantasize about stepping on Yang Hao's upward movement, painstakingly pondering how to grab him with a sturdy handle to make a big fuss, and then become popular.

This time, Yang Hao ordered the sale of advanced machinery and equipment, which in the eyes of most people was tantamount to openly selling the foundation of victory to foreigners. Once those foreigners have figured it out and done it thoroughly, they will attack China again after turning around and making a big deal, but what will they use to resist it at that time?

Yang Hao didn't give more explanations, so countless people were worried about this, and there were all kinds of bad rumors in the market, saying that he was mediocre, saying that he was arrogant and powerless, in short, he wanted to prove that his ability was no longer suitable for mastering the huge power of a country.

This set, all dynasties and dynasties have been used rotten by officials, grasping a little bit and chasing and beating fiercely until the political opponents are killed. From the Song Dynasty to the present millennium, the prime ministers have been overthrown countless times, and the emperors have been left speechless. A Yang family who has returned from foreign countries will definitely not be able to catch up with the skilled experience and means they have accumulated for thousands of years!

It's just that because of Yang Hao's strong force, at the moment this force is only sporadic temptation, but the dark tide is surging in private, but it has already gathered a huge force.

Tan Sitong and Yan Fu are the leaders of the two parties, and the nominal ideological disputes will eventually be unified to Yang Hao. They are all the top group of contemporary readers, and they immediately perceive the danger. Therefore, he hurriedly ran to ask Yang Hao's true intentions. Give reminders and dissuades.

In the eyes of both of them. Yang Hao's approach this time seems to be a bit too risky.

However, after drinking this pot of tea, both of them tasted a hint of taste. Yang Hao may have already considered all kinds of influences, and he has other intentions in it and does not announce it to the outside world, maybe he is waiting for those who are chasing the wind and shadows to jump out.

It is impossible for someone who can be the leader of hundreds of millions of people not even have this bit of wisdom. Even if he himself can't think of it, don't forget that there are tens of thousands of young scholars under Yang Hao's hands. These young elites in their twenties and thirties are the most top-notch among the population of more than 400 million, so how could they not discover the mistakes in them. What about prevention?

After thinking about it thoroughly, Yan Fu couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "It seems that we are worried about nothing." But since you're here, you might as well listen to a definite answer from his mouth, and save yourself the trouble of thinking about it. ”

To hear the answer, you have to drink the tea first. The time of the two of them is also precious, you have a bowl and I have a cup, and the green tea will have no color after three brews.

Zhou Jianhao came in on time as if pinching a watch, and took away the tea set, and served the two of them with a bowl, and after a while, Yang Hao came in from outside. He smiled at the two of them: "Let the two brothers wait for a long time." ”

The two got up to greet each other and waited for Yang Hao to sit down in the right seat. Tan Sitong couldn't wait to ask: "What is the true meaning of the commander-in-chief's actions, please make it clear to us, or make it clear to my colleagues in the party, they are cranky and cause trouble in vain." ”

Yang Hao didn't answer first, and turned his face to look at Yan Fu: "How many brothers can't think through it?" ”

Yan Fu nodded: "I roughly guess that one of the intentions is not to take advantage of the opportunity of the great victory over the navies of the great powers to induce the countries to buy all kinds of raw materials for our country's mechanical parts at high prices, and slaughter them fiercely, at least to take back the wealth that has been extorted and looted over the years." Second, is it necessary to rebalance the military forces among the great powers, provoke them into infighting, avoid another gang attack, and buy time for the success of our revolution? ”

Tan Sitong also thought of these two things, and seconded the proposal.

Yang Hao raised two fingers: "Both of these are right." One of my other intentions is also to test the level of China's industrial production on the basis of selling high-end products to the outside world, with the help of the hands of foreign powers, and forcibly create an unbreakable quality standard. ”

"Quality specifications?" The two of them are a little confused.

Yang Hao said solemnly: "There is a saying in the industrial world, quality is life. For us, quality is the sense of responsibility, the credibility, and the character of the nation. I hope that similar commercial activities will first create a strict benchmark at the initial stage of China's industry and commerce, and put an end to all kinds of evils such as cheating, cutting corners, and shoddy. In addition, it is to change the stubborn bad habits that have been formed through the ages! ”

The expressions of the two of them immediately became stern, they could understand what Yang Hao meant, but they felt even more difficult.

Yang Hao: This is taking the opportunity to break the traditional bad habits and wage war against the bad habits of the entire nation!

Since ancient times, the way of doing things has formed an official channel on the surface and an underlying rule in private. And it is the dark rules that are unseemly, not on paper, and can only be understood and unspeakable, but have become the decisive factor in whether or not they can get things done!

Such bad habits are not only inseparable from the idea of official status, but also affect the daily life of the entire nation. As a result, most of the policies and regulations are in vain, with laws not being followed, law enforcement not being strictly enforced, violations of the law not being prosecuted, and even knowing the law and breaking the law, and law enforcers taking the lead in undermining the law. Things like power is greater than the law, and human favor is greater than the law.

In this way, the so-called rule of law is simply empty talk.

The vast majority of the Chinese people hate this, but they have to succumb to this powerful force of inertia.

Yang Hao now has the opportunity to change the world, but he wants to touch this stubborn stone and hard nail formed through the ages.

Returning to industrial products, the world's Celestial Empire has the largest industrial scale in the world, but the quality of products is widely criticized, counterfeit and shoddy products are famous all over the world, and the major wholesale markets are full of thousands of substandard products, and counterfeiting, selling and buying fake has become a general environment that no one can bypass. It is an exaggeration to say that the majority of people eat and use all substandard products.

So how did these things get into the house? Is there a law? There must be, from production licenses to product specifications, quality inspection systems to industrial and commercial supervision, there are many relevant units in all aspects, and there are even more civil servants who should be in charge. But how many have been executed, and how many are doing their duty? Hehe.

This is because the system and management structure are non-existent. Producers have no moral bottom line. A qiē problem can be solved by stuffing red envelopes. Therefore, it has become the norm for the whole people to poison each other, frame each other, and deceive each other. Under such circumstances, expect two shouts of empty mouths and white teeth to make the people become moral models? Dreaming.

The general environment of the 21st century is like this, and Yang Hao can't change much at all. In the B plane, China's industrialization has just begun, chemical fertilizers and pesticide additives have not yet flowed to the people, and hundreds of millions of Chinese people have not automatically evolved into chemists and biologists.

The relevant policies and regulations are available, but whether they can be implemented well or not. That's the key. Although there is a special supervision agency, and even an independent non-governmental supervision work system, Yang Hao is still not at ease, because he knows very well the inferior nature of people - in order to make money, he will do everything!

This is not a problem that some public intellectuals talk nonsense all day long, and it belongs only to Chinese, people all over the world are the same, just look at the discussion of "Capital" in detail. Otherwise, to understand the Western countries in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, what kind of horrific behavior was industrial production? If you are not convinced, you can go to find out that Bayer uses No. 4 heroin as an antidote. Canned rotten meat eaten by American troops in World War II, and children's toys made of uranium in the fifties and sixties and other exaggerated incidents.

Foreign Yang Hao can't manage it. He just wants to take care of his own one-third of an acre.

I believe that businessmen talk about conscience, so how naïve can they do it? Yang Hao would rather treat all those involved in business activities as liars to guard against them, and try his best to control them from the source and control every pass.

In today's domestic industrial and commercial activities, workers and factory owners supervise each other, officials and non-governmental supervisory agencies watch each other, and the supply of raw materials and the sale of products are subject to quality inspection, but these are all joints that can be opened up by illegal means.

Yang Hao must place a card in the last link - the consumer.

In troubled times, they took advantage of the revolutionary war to announce some strict laws, stipulating that making and selling counterfeit goods was equivalent to killing people for money, and slashing people with knives could scare as much as they could.

In addition, it is with the help of foreigners to force them to engage in quality standards.

This idea is to learn from the product export business since the opening of the world, and countless factories are forced to improve product quality and production efficiency by the quality inspection and control of foreign devils who are difficult to publicize.

Yang Hao also wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to provide various equipment parts and even raw materials to the powers, and borrow their hands to cut the necks of major production plants.

"The products we use ourselves are specially provided, which is one level higher than those sold to foreigners. All of them are sold to the outside world, and all of them are produced by newly built factories in China. However, our product quality inspection specifications should be open to other countries, so that they can test whether the products are qualified or not. I think, none of the foreign devils are willing to spend money to buy substandard products, right? ”

The eyes of the two lit up when they heard this, and Yan Fu stroked his palm and praised: "This method is wonderful!" Not only do they find a way out for their products, but they also make them strict with themselves at all times, and they can also take the opportunity to hone their skills and improve their standards. ”

He knew that advanced warships were a comprehensive embodiment of a country's industrial capacity, and that a country that could produce all the equipment and parts of a battleship could be regarded as a qualified industrial country.

Yang Hao blows up a balloon like a set of industrial systems in China, although the scale is not as good as the powers for the time being, it can complete a series of production work from mining, chemical industry, to smelting, processing, and assembly. The starting point is high, the equipment is in good condition, and it is not too difficult to piece together a battleship.

Even if there are some of them, they can be built up. There is a huge market, abundant capital, unlimited basic equipment, and huge human resources, and it is only a matter of time before a complete industrial system is reproduced.

The important thing is that after selling high-end industrial products to the outside world, building and honing its own industrial strength, and obtaining huge funds to feed back into industrial construction, forming a virtuous circle, its driving force is immeasurable!

Yang Hao said with confidence: "The world's naval competition is about to begin, and the great powers want to complete the necessary industrial construction, and they will not succeed in three or five years. Until then, they had to buy ready-made equipment and materials from us to supply production and construction. With this buffer, it is enough for us to improve the basic industrial strength. The billions of benefits brought by that are enough for our infrastructure. ”

Tan Sitong's eyes flickered and asked, "What are your other intentions?" ”

Yang Hao's face sank, and he said coldly: "I want to take this opportunity to clean up the moles!" ”

"Mole?!" The two of them were taken aback, how could they turn to this place?

Yang Hao sneered: "Do you know that we publicly displayed advanced machinery and equipment that day, and how many of the people who placed orders in the first wave were planning to smuggle them to foreigners after getting them?" Eighty percent of them are! ”

The faces of the two changed again! Eighty percent, how can there be so many! How do they do that?!

There was a hint of hideousness at the corner of Yang Hao's mouth, and he said hatefully: "The compradors of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the descendants of the Thirteen Lines of Guangdong, the bold Jin merchants, and many businessmen who were the first to deal with foreigners, have secretly contacted the former foreigner masters, and even the Qing court who fled west!" They are used to reselling things to make money, but they forget that there are some goods that cannot be touched! ”

Lure the snake out of the hole!

Yan Fudeng understood Yang Hao's original intentions. This short buffer time of half a month was enough for him to find out who was restless. He also knew that Yang Hao had always had no good impression of this kind of foreign slave who ate inside and out.

Tan Sitong became excited, clenched his fists and leaned over and asked, "What does the commander-in-chief plan to do with them?" Catch someone now? Or are you waiting for them to get the stolen goods while they trade? ”

Yang Hao waved his hand lightly: "It's not that cheap." For such people, they must first be ruined! ”

Needless to say, what kind of stuff are compradors, and how many bad things they have done. Yang Hao taught them a lesson again and again, but he still didn't want to repent, so don't blame him for being ruthless.

As a result, I don't know how many people will inevitably lose their families. Although it is self-inflicted, it is also pitiful and hateful.

Yang Hao openly sued the two of them, and also said hello to them in advance, and went back to remind his own people from the two parties, don't come back to cry and complain about grievances when the time comes.

Yan Fu and Tan Sitong listened to the details of his plan, but they were not happy at all, and the two left together, seizing the time to write an article to explain Yang Hao's good intentions and calm public opinion.

On the other hand, the Great Powers heard the news and inquired about the news through diplomatic envoys and actively contacted the special foreign trade office set up by the government to make purchases. In addition, they secretly contacted their well-cooperated comprador Taipan, trying to get them first.

But at this time, Yang Hao's ban was also issued at the same time, and no one was allowed to trade related equipment products with foreigners in any way. Violators will be confiscated and severely fined.

The compradors, who were lucky, continued their dealings, and a group of proposers were arrested, confiscated and punished accordingly. But the amount of the fine is far less than the rich returns given by the foreign powers. These people are so greedy for profit that they not only do not want to forge ahead, but they have doubled down on the preparation of smuggling equipment in accordance with the requirements of the foreigners.

They didn't know that Yang Hao was playing to capture the old man, and a tight net was quietly covering the top of their heads! (To be continued......)
