Chapter 158: Guo Xiaoyun's Dream

Yang Qiuxing was meeting with a number of entrepreneurs, along with a group of local people's congress deputies, and the reason why they came was simple: they did not want the expansion war to the south to stop. In fact, many families in the Northeast are tied to the war, and some things cannot be stopped if you say stop. Fortunately, the war with Tsarist Russia did not stop, and although the intensity was not as intense as before, it at least left a respite for these people, allowing them to change their professions smoothly.

"Mr. Prime Minister, the ships of our East China Sea Transport Company are being harassed by the Spaniards on Luzon for no reason, can you send the navy to help us escort them?" It was Guan Binghe, the general manager of the East China Sea Transportation Company, who spoke.

"This, we already know the situation you said, and the South China Sea Fleet will consider your proposal."

Donghai Transportation Company is the third largest shipping company in Northeast China, and the first place is Qichang Company, which operates global shipping routes. The second largest global transport company, mainly operating European routes. During the war with France and Siam, their company obtained a large number of orders for the transportation of military supplies, so it made a lot of profits, and behind it was several major families in Zhejiang.

Yang Qiuxing understands that Guan Binghe's so-called unwarranted harassment is mostly some excuses. These people clearly want to pretend to be powerful, let the navy help deal with some things, and maybe even take the opportunity to provoke an incident with the Spaniards.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I'm Kim Byung-hoon, the general manager of the Korea Group."

Yang Qiuxing nodded, he knew that this person, after the annexation of North Korea to the Northeast, there were three relatively large enterprises, of which the Gaoli Group was one of them, which operated a medicinal material business, purchased drug production equipment from the Dashang Pharmaceutical Machinery Factory, and hired a large number of scientific and technological personnel from the School of Pharmacy. The main attack is all kinds of wound medicine and antibiotics, and the current products are not only supplied to the northern front, but also to the southern front.

The war was like a big net, weaving various interest groups in the Northeast Autonomous Region, and Yang Qiuxing expected the resistance to stop expansion, but he did not expect that the resistance would be so great. Donghae Shipping Company, Korea Group, Andong Textile Group, Arms Companies, Food Companies, Canneries and many more.

After the meeting, Yang Qiuxing was physically and mentally exhausted, and said that these people were really difficult to deal with, and then called Wang Yi.

"What do you think, sir? There are so many people involved. ”

Wang smiled and said, "No matter how many of them there are, we have so many territories now, and there are many things to do." As long as you have formulated relevant guidance policies, there will always be enterprises willing to follow suit, and as for the enterprises that have made a fortune from the war, it doesn't matter if they go bankrupt. For the country, peace is the norm we seek. ”

"But it's not a way for these companies to leave it alone, and they still have a lot of workers under them."

"Shipping companies do not carry military supplies, but can also transport grain, sugar and rubber from Southeast Asia. The Korean pharmaceutical factory can also study other drugs, and it is not necessary to guard the wound medicine. The textile group can make other clothes, is it possible that only military uniforms are called clothes? ”

Yang Qiuxing understood and said, "What about the arms company?" ”

"What is difficult for them to arrange, there is no shortage of places to fight in the world, there is no shortage of careerists, there is no shortage of rebels, since the British dare to make trouble for us in Siam, it is no harm to come, they probably think that Burma, which was just annexed this year, is too comfortable, there are no guerrillas in it, and I don't mind making some modern rebels in Burma. Also, the Boers in Africa will love the arms we offer. Aren't the British very strong in the navy, then let them pay on land! ”

Wang Yi is now annoyed by the British, and if he can make some trouble for them, he naturally can't ask for it.

After entering 1886, except for the north, which was still at war with Tsarist Russia, the rest of the Northeast began to develop mode. Wang Yi established large-scale rubber plantations, sugar plantations, coffee plantations, tropical fruit plantations, and farms in the newly acquired province of Siam. The Thai Yen group also got involved, recruiting more than 200,000 people from several provinces in the country, and then carrying out a massive migration from South Viet province to re-establish the transportation network, as well as the towns.

Zhan Tianyou also returned to the five Southeast Asian provinces from Sanya, and then the Dashang Railway Construction Company sent a large number of railway exploration personnel to plan the railway construction of the entire region. At the same time, the construction of heavy industry, coal mines, metallurgy, iron and steel began in North Viet province, and the whole region was in full swing.

The weather was a little hot, Zhang Zhidong was practicing calligraphy in the hall, mind calm, and Zhao Fengchang, the copywriter of the Governor's Yamen, walked in.

"Zhujun, you're here." Although Zhao Fengchang is only 30 years old this year, he is deeply relied on by Zhang Zhidong.

Zhao Fengchang saluted Zhang Zhidong and said, "See my lord!" ”

"Excuse me, sit!"

"My lord, the Nanyang survey you requested has now been completed." Zhao Fengchang bowed and said

"Bring it to me and take a look...... Zhang Zhidong looked at it, and then sighed lightly, and said, "I didn't expect the Northeast to occupy such a large piece of territory." ”

Zhao Fengchang also nodded, "I didn't think that the Northeast had a war with the French before, occupied Vietnam, Nanzhang and Khmer, and expelled the French from Southeast Asia. After the South Vietnamese rebellion, more than 100,000 rebels were killed in the northeast, and they marched into Siam along the way, forcing the Siamese king Rama V to sign a peace treaty and occupy a large territory. ”

"I didn't expect them to go so far." Zhang Zhidong sighed, although the words were not very good, Zhao Fengchang heard a strong sense of envy.

The investigators sent by the bureau reported that the five provinces in Southeast Asia are building construction projects and speeding up the construction of industries and railways. There are already many factories in North Vietnam, and although they have not yet been completed, you can imagine the prosperity in the future. ”

"It seems that the Northeast is really willing to spend a lot of money."

"This is really a lot of money, about 20 million taels of silver a year, which is more than half of my annual income in the Qing Dynasty. Moreover, in addition to official investment, private investment is also flourishing, and a large number of sugar cane plantations and rubber plantations have begun to prepare. That is, in our Qing Dynasty, such as Shanxi ticket number, Hu Xueyan's Fukang Qianzhuang, Jin merchants, Hui merchants, and Zhejiang merchants have all sent investment requests to the Northeast Autonomous Region. Even foreigners are allowed to set up a business there, as long as they meet the legal requirements of the Northeast and obtain the corresponding qualifications. ”

Zhang Zhidong had been very confident in the Liangguang region under his rule, especially Guangzhou, but now it seems that he is a little too optimistic.

"It is also worth mentioning that while the Northeast has built a large number of railways, a larger scale of investment has been spent on running schools. All of them are the new schools advocated by the Northeast, which teach those barbarian Chinese and Chinese character education, as long as the children over the age of seven are allowed to enter the school for both boys and girls, and the nine-year compulsory education is implemented. Otherwise, it is an illegal act, and the parents will be severely punished. ”

"This is ......" Zhang Zhidong could not understand, this was a completely different path for his education.

"I heard from people who came back that Northeast China came up with such a policy in order to allow better communication between the local people and Hermes-Epitek. They are extremely religious, whether it is Western Christianity, Muslims, or even Buddhism, they are not allowed in the classroom. At the same time, they encourage intermarriage between different ethnic groups, and do not indicate the nationality on the identity card they handle. It is said that all ethnic groups are treated equally, but from the point of view of subordinates, the Northeast is being Sinicized, and after a few decades, there are no barbarians in the Southeast. ”

Zhang Zhidong sighed and said, "Does the imperial court know about this matter?" ”

Zhao Fengchang shook his head and reported the news, but there was no news.

It is said that the Qing court is not paying much attention to the movements in Northeast China, especially in Southeast Asia. Beiyang is expanding its military strength, and of course the target is not Tohoku, but Japan. A few years ago, Liu Buyun was sent to Germany to escort the Dingyuan, Zhenyuan, and Jiyuan back to China. Liu Buyun also left Nanyang, although the three ships of Dingyuan cannot be compared with the Nanyang Navy, but they are still deeply loved by Liu Buchan, how to say that they are also Beiyang's own warships.

In 1886, Ding Ruchang, Lang Weili, the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division, led six ships of Dingyuan, Zhenyuan, Jiyuan, Weiyuan, Chaoyong, and Yangwei to conduct exercises on the sea surface of the east coast of Korea, and visited Wonsan in North Korea and Vladivostok in the outer northeast. (Historically, in July 1886, Li Hongzhang received a report from Yuan Shikai that someone in Korea was plotting to unite with Russia to defend the British, and Russia was coveting Woody Bay outside the Wonshan Pass.) The Qing government knew very well that once Korea fell into another country, it would inevitably endanger its own security, so it ordered Ding Ruchang and Wu Ankang to lead the North and Nanyang fleets respectively to patrol the area around Woody Bay in Korea, so as to demonstrate the Qing government's powerful naval strength and stop the enemy's possible attempts at aggression. οΌ‰

Originally, Dashang had such maintenance and repair capabilities, but the current relationship between the two sides is not very good, and the main reason is that after Li Hongzhang signed a peace agreement with the French, the Northeast directly slapped the face and started a war with the French, not giving Li Zhongtang any face at all.

Therefore, Li Hongzhang is also guarding the northeast now, and he doesn't want the number of warships in his hands to fall into their hands. On the other hand, several large shipyards in the northeast are currently busy, and there are no spare docks for the Beiyang Navy Division to rest.

After the bombing of the Tohoku Air Force, Nagasaki was restored to its former prosperity and the port was rebuilt. Most of the warships that were sunk by the Northeast bombing were now salvaged out of the water, and some of the ones that could not be repaired were turned into steel, and those that could be repaired are now also revitalized, and all of them have been absorbed by the Japanese fleet, and the biggest gain is none other than the French ironclad ship - Triumph. Of course, now it has changed its name and has become the Eimaru.

However, although Nagasaki does not seem to be the same as it used to be, the horror of the Nagasaki people being bombed by the Tohoku is probably unforgettable for all Nagasaki people. This is a scar piercing the heart, although it seems to heal, but it still aches.

The news of the arrival of the Beiyang Navy Division swelled in the hearts of the people of Nagasaki.

As the sun set, several shipyard workers who had just finished work came to Soyuke Yamazaki's tavern to drink and chat with each other.

"Boss Yamazaki, another bottle of sake."

"Wait a minute."

The atmosphere in the tavern was lively, and the topics ranged from south to north, with some Tokyoites talking about the political situation in Tokyo, and some people talking about the war with the French in the Northeast, but the conversation focused on the upcoming Qing warships.

"I heard that four warships of the Qing Kingdom are coming to our Nagasaki for repair and maintenance?".

"Does the Qing Kingdom also have a navy?" An elderly Japanese man asked disdainfully.

"I heard that it was ordered from Germany, but I don't know how the combat power is?"

"Whatever, what if you have a ship, you still can't repair it yourself." A boatman said disapprovingly.

There is a strong smell of sea in the air, which is pleasant to smell on a summer evening.

Yamazaki Soyu suddenly interjected at this time: "Since it is a warship of the Qing Kingdom, why don't you go to the northeast for maintenance, I heard that the level of shipbuilding over there is very high......"

"Who knows, isn't the Qing Kingdom like that, never-ending infighting."

It is difficult for Soyu Yamazaki to understand how to say that the Northeast and the Qing Kingdom are also the same country, and the Qing Kingdom would rather come to Japan for maintenance than wait for a while in the Northeast. Could it be that the relationship between the Northeast and the Qing State is not even comparable to the relationship between the Qing State and Japan? Although Qingri did not clash on the surface, they were also rivals competing with each other.

On August 1, the Beiyang Fleet arrived at the port of Nagasaki, and the citizens of Nagasaki, who had seen for the first time the ironclad giant ships from the Qing Kingdom, crowded the docks. Looking at the dragon flag flying high on the majestic giant ship, the crowd suddenly had a complex feeling of amazement, envy, and indignation.

"I'm afraid it's already surpassed the fleet in the northeast."

"No, the last time we went to war, the warships in the northeast didn't look so huge."

Ding Ruchang and Lang Weili were chatting on the deck, looking at the Japanese people's expressions, Ding Ruchang felt a little proud. Our sailor of the Qing Dynasty, little Japanese, you envy, jealous, hate!

Liu Buyun and Lin Taizeng also chatted together, Liu Buyun is now the pipe band of the Dingyuan ship, and Lin Tai was the pipe band of the Zhenyuan ship, looking at the reaction of the Japanese people, Lin Taizeng was also very excited. But Liu Buyun didn't feel anything, turned his face to look down, and shook his head.

"Why is Brother Zixiang like this?" Lin Taizeng asked with a smile.

"What is there to be happy about?" Liu Buyun said disapprerovitically.

"Shouldn't we be happy to see the envy of the Japanese?" Lin Tai once asked rhetorically.

Liu Buyun shook his head and didn't speak.

Lin Tai once understood that Liu Buyun was thinking of the fleet in the Northeast again. "Zixiang is still in the fleet to the northeast?"

"Brother Kaishi, you don't understand. I admit that our Beiyang Naval Division has made great progress compared to the past. But if you really spent time in the fleet in the Northeast, you will understand. Compared with them, the gap between us has not narrowed, but has widened. However, the home fleet in the northeast is directly said to be the South Ocean fleet. Their cruisers were all 9,100 tons, and their battleships were 13,000 tons, which was no worse than the British, and they also had long-range communication facilities. ”

"As far as I know, the caliber of their artillery is not comparable to ours." Lin Tai once said disdainfully. "In this battle on the sea, the stronger the artillery, the farther it goes! One day, when we face them, they may not be able to win against us. ”

Liu Buyun shook his head and said, "Brother Kaishi, do you think that the Northeast can't make a twelve-inch caliber artillery?" That's not true! I have heard Yan Dao say that in the current naval warfare, the rate of fire of large-caliber artillery is too low, and although it is far away, the two ships are separated by thousands of meters, or even tens of thousands of meters, and sometimes they can't even see the splash when they go down. Then no matter how far the artillery hits, it is useless if you can't hit the enemy. ”

Lin Taizeng nodded, and Liu Buyun continued: "The battleships in the Northeast are pursuing the hit rate, and their battleships are equipped with rangefinders, and if they cooperate with airships, they also have air number guidance. Speaking of which, although the caliber of their guns is not as good as ours, the ammunition is still very impressive. ”

"Why is that?"

"It should be that the gunpowder is much stronger than ours, and I don't know the specific situation."

"Then we'll play against them......" Lin Taizeng said.

Liu Buyun shook his head and didn't speak.

Lin Taizeng smiled at this time: "Okay, okay, it's unlikely that we will be able to compete with the Northeast, as long as we can win against Little Japan, I will be satisfied." ”

I don't know what the reason is, but it is estimated that it may be to show off the ship's strength and gunnery, and the Qing fleet sent an invitation to Japan to visit. And Togo Heihachi, who was later called the god of Japanese militarism along with Nogi Noshinori of the Army, was also invited to visit at this time.

However, the wishful thinking of the Qing fleet obviously did not sound, and the disembarking Dongxiang Hei Hachio did not care about the Qing Navy at all, or rather, he turned his nose up! He insisted that Japan would be able to defeat the Qing navy because he saw sailors drying their clothes and pants on the barrels 616161616161 their guns

Of course, let's not talk about whether to dry clothes and pants, the ships of the Qing Navy entered the Japanese dockyard for maintenance, and even the bottom of the ship was displayed, what secrets are there?

For Japan, which had long regarded the conquest of the Qing Dynasty as a way to rejuvenate the country and adopted the expansion of its navy to implement this policy, the Nagasaki incident was nothing less than a God-given propaganda opportunity. As long as the public is mindful of China's possession of two new ironclad ships and the ships that the Japanese Navy is not capable of comparing, it will be easy to add new ships and sell naval bonds. So in the summer of 1886, after several controversies over the construction of ships and fund-raising plans, the Japanese Navy had received a special fund for the construction of ships. The "Dingyuan" and other four ships arrived in Nagasaki during this time, and caused another incident, which gave Japan an opportunity to hype up and an excuse to build special ships! Subsequently, the three ships that were specially planned to destroy "Dingyuan" and "Zhenyuan" were "Itsukushima", "Matsushima", and "Hashidate", which were collectively known as the Sankei ships, and were built year by year.

August 13 was the beginning of the Nagasaki Incident.

Five drunken sailors went to a brothel in Nagasaki to prostitute themselves, and the sailors waited in line outside the brothel for a long time, only to find that some Japanese could go straight in and out. Receiving such differential treatment, the sailors were furious and smashed the brothel to the ground. Because of the dispute, the owner went to the police station to report it. One day, the police arrived, and the dispute was settled, but the Qing sailors were not convinced, and soon six people went to the police station to reason, very excited, noisy, causing conflicts. One Japanese policeman was immediately stabbed, and the sailor who caused the incident was also arrested, while the other sailors fled.

Shang Yi, the deputy commander of the navy who got the news, was so angry that he said to Wang: "If this were a naval soldier in my northeast, I would have been sent to a military court long ago." ”

Wang Yi waved his hand and said, "Li Hongzhang's soldiers are like that, haven't you seen this yet?" ”

Wang Xiaoxiao said at this time: "The Japanese should have revenge, right?" ”

"Or do you kid know the Japanese...... Not to mention the Japanese, even if there are foreigners who make such an incident on our territory, we can't give up. Wang Yi said with a smile.

"Did the Japanese really get into the trap?"

"It's down, but the level is almost there, if you change me, even the warship will be robbed for you." Wang Yi said with a smile. "On August 15, two days after the prostitution dispute, the Beiyang Fleet was on holiday, and hundreds of sailors took to the streets for sightseeing. In view of the clashes the day before yesterday, Ding Ruchang strictly ordered sailors not to bring weapons to cause trouble. However, in the area of the Outer Concession and the overseas Chinese residential area, the sailors were attacked by the Japanese police plot, and then a large-scale clash ensued, resulting in more than 80 casualties on both sides, of which the Chinese sailors died more than the Japanese. ”

"It's normal, people are deliberately retaliating, you have no heart and lungs, you don't have weapons, if the Japanese are injured more, then it's strange." Wang Xiao said.

At that time, hundreds of Japanese policemen blocked the streets at both ends, surrounded the unarmed Qing sailors, and slashed them to death. At the instigation of local residents, boiling water was poured from the upper floors, stones were thrown, and some even took part in the scuffle with knives and sticks. The Qing sailors were caught off guard and scattered all over the streets, resulting in a big loss, with 5 killed, 6 seriously injured, 38 slightly injured, and 5 missing. One Japanese police officer was killed, 30 wounded, and many local citizens were injured. ”

Shang Yi looked impatient and sneered: "It's really embarrassing." ”

Wang Yi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you're ashamed or not." However, the Japanese are angry when they see the Qing Navy now, and with Nagasaki on top of this, the Japanese are smashing pots and selling iron, and it is estimated that they will support their own naval construction. ”

"Is this coming to fruition now?" Shang Yi asked.

"What about negotiations! It is estimated that there are no too promising results. Of course, the two sides will not give up, of course, it is only lip service, and the war will definitely not be fought. You don't have to look forward to staging a full martial arts, Li Hongzhang can endure it. ”

Shang Yi shrugged, but he felt that it was all the Qing Navy, and it was a bit embarrassing after it was passed out. Wang Xiaoxiao didn't take this matter to heart at all, and it had nothing to do with the Northeast at all. As for Wang Yi always thinking, how can you think that future generations can take this as evidence of Japan's conspiracy to invade China? No matter how you look at it, the Japanese have been slapped in the face......

Just a few days before the Nagasaki incident, something happened in Sichuan again!

American and British missionaries respectively built churches at the Goose Neck and Congshu Monument under the Futu Pass in Chongqing. Citizens spread posts and made appointments to apostatize. On July 2, merchants* and martial artists who were taking the examination in Chongqing also quit the examination and burned down American churches and British and French houses. The masses besieged the house of Luo Yuanyi, a parishioner who relied on the power of the church to oppress the people. Luo commanded more than 100 thugs, killing and wounding more than 30 people, and the masses were extremely angry.

On July 25, more than 3,000 people gathered to destroy the French Catholic Church College in Baiguoshu outside the city, and had a fight with the Qing soldiers protecting the church. The masses in Jiangbei, Yingjiang, Nanchuan, Tongliang, Dazu and other counties responded one after another, setting off a new wave of anti-foreign religious struggle in eastern Sichuan.

Speaking of which, since the northeast occupied the original French Indochina, the French Catholic Church has set its sights on the interior of the Qing Dynasty. Wang Yi didn't have much to say about the missionaries, there were good people in them, but there were more bad guys.

Britain protested against a ban on missionary activities in the Northeast. Wang Yi's reply was also very simple: "Do you allow the spread of Catholicism in your country?" If your country does not allow it, then please do not point fingers at us when it comes to missionary matters. ”

The anti-foreign movement in Sichuan developed into the Dazu Teaching Plan, and Wang Yi had never read about it in a textbook at all, and he was not from Sichuan. Therefore, even if it happened later, Wang Yi was not sure if this incident had really happened in an era that he had not crossed.

In Shengjing City, Guo Xiaoyun was wearing a ragged dress and exchanged the money she earned today for rice and noodles. Her family lives in a shantytown in Tiexi, and she is an orphan who was raised by an old man. But the old man has been dead for many years, and Guo Xiaoyun is 17 years old this year, and she makes a living every day by helping a nearby school wash and mend clothes and bedding. But despite living in such a tight situation, she adopted five orphans.

A boy was sitting at the gate of the courtyard at this time, he looked to be no more than six or seven years old, and he looked like a tiger. It's just a bruise on his face, which makes Guo Xiaoyun very distressed.

"Big brother, are you fighting with people again?" The boy pouted and didn't speak.

At this time, a little girl ran out of the small courtyard, the same age as the boy, and when she saw Guo Xiaoyun, she directly complained: "Sister, Brother Niu Zi is fighting with someone again today!" ”

The boy glared at the girl and didn't speak.

Guo Xiaoyun sighed, stretched out her hand and pulled her younger brother and sister into the small courtyard.

The yard was not large, except for the main house, the kitchen was on the east side, and the thatched hut on the west side, and there were three children, two boys and one girl, both five or six years old, playing in it. When they saw Guo Xiaoyun, they all greeted them, and shouted one after another: "Sister, sister, sister ......"

Guo Xiaoyun picked them up one by one and made love, and then went to the kitchen to prepare for cooking.

Such a family naturally can't eat any good things, stick noodle porridge, and some worthless vegetables. But the family of six ate very happily.

After nightfall, the younger brothers and sisters fell asleep, Guo Xiaoyun came to Niu Zi's side at this time, and said softly: "Why are you fighting during the day?" ”

Niu Zi closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep and didn't speak, seeing this, Guo Xiaoyun shook his head, blew the oil lamp, and lay on the kang and remembered what was on his mind.

Two days later, the newly established hospital in Shengjing was preparing to recruit nurses, although I didn't know what kind of profession nurses were, I thought they were here to take care of patients. Guo Xiaoyun is no stranger to this kind of thing, the old man who raised him has been seriously ill before he died, and it was three or five years in a flash, Guo Xiaoyun was young at that time, but he still took on the responsibility of taking care of the elderly.

It would be nice if I could enter the hospital, although I am busy, but the income is really good, and I know a few words, so I am sure that I want to enter. The only thing I worry about is that my younger siblings have no one to take care of them......

Thinking about it, in a daze, the girl fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, hearing that someone seemed to be crying behind her, Guo Xiaoyun opened her eyes and turned over to see that it was a cow. Although his back was to him, Guo Xiaoyun could still see Niu Zi's shaking shoulders.

"Niuzi, tell my sister, what's wrong?"

Although this cow has a bit of a stubborn temper on weekdays, he is a child, so when he heard his sister say this, the whole person leaned on Guo Xiaoyun's arms and cried: "Sister, I'm not a wild seed, am I?" ”

Guo Xiaoyun's heart was sour, patted Niuzi on the back, and said: "Niuzi is not a wild species, Niuzi is a good brother of my sister." ”

It seems that the other younger siblings heard the conversation between the two, and they all cried inexplicably. Guo Xiaoyun got up, took all her younger brothers and sisters in her arms, and comforted: "You are all good children, you are not wild seeds!" ”

The family just hugged it, and I don't know how long it took before they all fell asleep.

A few days later, Guo Xiaoyun took the nurse recruitment exam, although the Northeast advocated women to work, but there are still very few girls who actually go out to work, generally female textile workers, and then teachers, doctors and nurses. However, because Dashang Group has produced many female executives this year, Wang Yi also shouted the slogan that women can hold up half the sky, and as the power of female executives increases, the society has gradually recognized their strength. Coupled with the gradual opening up of the social atmosphere, people's attitudes towards women working outside the home are no longer as conservative as before.

"What's your name?" A very dignified middle-aged woman said at this time.

"Guo Xiaoyun."

"Do you know how to read?"

"It's going to be simple."

Guo Xiaoyun's literacy ability was when she helped with laundry at school, and she learned it after listening to the teachers' lectures in the past few years. After the end of each year, she also picked up a few textbooks that were thrown away by students on campus, and after self-study, she also got some results. However, it is also at the elementary school level, and the literacy is enough, and the arithmetic is not bad, plus the body is not disabled, so it is easy to pass the recruitment exam for nurses.

"My name is Fang Qing, and I am the head nurse of Shengjing Hospital, and from today on, you will be the hospital's reserve nurse. Nursing is not a simple profession, though. Being able to endure hardships is a prerequisite, but this alone is not enough to be qualified for the job of a nurse! The middle-aged woman who was in charge of recruitment said with a solemn face.

In the entire hall, there were one hundred and fifty or sixty nurses, and Guo Xiaoyun was one of them.

"Listen, the job of a nurse was supposed to be recruited from among the graduates of the nursing school, but our nursing school in the Northeast was established very late, and there are no nurses graduating at present. And you're lucky enough to get into this industry. But this is also your misfortune, and here I would like to tell you that for the next three years you will all be reserve nurses, half of your normal salary. You have to go through training every day, and after three years, you can only stay and continue working if you pass the guΓ² nurse certification exam. That's when you get your full salary, bonuses, and benefits. ”

In the hall, a group of little girls began to talk.

Fang Qing glared and said loudly: "What is the noise, listen to me finish speaking!" ”

It's quiet again below.

"After hearing what I have said above, you can now make a choice between staying or leaving. As I said earlier, if you choose to stay today, then anyone who wants to leave before the end of the exam in three years will be punished by us for violating the contract. ”

"Why?" A girl asked, puzzled.

"Because once you start training, you're going to be using a lot of real materials and equipment. And if you leave halfway, then the consumables used in the previous training will all be in vain, and we can only choose to do so in order not to cause unnecessary losses to the hospital. ”

Guo Xiaoyun understands that once she signs a contract today, she can only work in the hospital in the next three years, and she can't give up halfway. Such a request made her hesitate...... Should I sign it?

There were indeed many girls around who chose to leave, but many more chose to stay, and the original 150 or 60 people are now about 100 left. Guo Xiaoyun is still looking at the contract, once she becomes a regular employee, she will have a very good income, and there will be holidays, as well as a bunch of benefits that Guo Xiaoyun has never heard of, what five insurances and one housing fund, etc.

The family is taken care of by Aunt Zhao on weekdays, and there should be no big problems with younger brothers and sisters. Next year, Niu Zidi and the second sister will enter the school, and the third, fourth, and fifth brothers will also enter the school in two years, and they will be able to work officially by then.

Reading is the only way to be productive! Without the salary of a nurse, even if my younger siblings study well, there is no possibility of continuing their education.

As soon as she thought of this, Guo Xiaoyun made up her mind. When the signed contract was handed over, Guo Xiaoyun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and she seemed to have a big stone in her heart.

At first, the training was very simple, mainly following the lectures, but the next practical class was a little scary. But looking at Nurse Fang Qing's meticulous explanation, the girls didn't have the slightest complaint, and the fear in their hearts seemed to have become unimportant.

Of course, after class, girls who have no appetite still make up the majority. After all, they are different from the well-informed girls in later generations, when Wang Yi went to school, the anatomy class was surrounded by girls in the innermost, although they didn't joke about the organs of corpses, but Wang Yi never saw any of them afraid. Every day after half past ten, the lights go out in the teaching building, and the girls who pass by the door of the anatomy room don't see who feels scared.

However, girls in this era have never watched TV or movies, and they are more unfamiliar with the body of the opposite sex. As for the dead, it is estimated that the only association is the various evil spirits that haunt in the middle of the night.

They were able to do today's Cheng dΓΉ, although Fang Qing did not praise it, but she was also very satisfied.

When Guo Xiaoyun was in class, she didn't feel it yet, but after going to the cafeteria, there would be many bad associations when she looked at each meat dish. But in order to bring back some meat for her younger siblings, she still ordered some to take home.

Aunt Zhao is a neighbor of Guo Xiaoyun's family, and her son joined the Dashang Insurance team and is currently stationed in Cambodia Province. In addition to thinking about her son, Aunt Zhao's family life is very rich. Father Zhao is still working, if it weren't for the care of this old couple, Guo Xiaoyun would really be too busy.

"Sister, are you back?"

Guo Xiaoyun, who had stood for a day, was very tired, but at this time, when she saw the smiling faces of her younger brothers and sisters welcoming her, her exhaustion disappeared.

"Xiaoyun, you're back."

"Yes, auntie, is Daddy Zhao back? This is a bottle of liquor I bought for my father, and I also brought back a few side dishes, my aunt and my father came over to eat together? ”

"Good, good!" Aunt Zhao looks at Guo Xiaoyun like her own daughter...... It would be more appropriate to be a daughter-in-law. This girl is beautiful, and the most important thing is that she has a good personality and is hard-working. Now she is a nurse in a big hospital, and in the future, when the old couple is sick, there will be no shortage of people to take care of them. In other words, Aunt Zhao is thinking quite far......

After about a month of work, Fang Qing taught Guo Xiaoyun to the office.

"Head nurse, are you looking for me?"

Fang Qing smiled: "Xiaoyun, you have also studied for a month, right?" ”

Guo Xiaoyun nodded and said, "It's been a month." ”

"That's fast! That's right, after this month of training, I found that you are a good seedling to be a nurse, and it just so happens that the high nursing major of Dashang Medical College is recruiting people from the society, and I would like to recommend you to go over. Would you like to? ”

Guo Xiaoyun was stunned in place, never thought that such a good thing would fall on her head.

"Don't be in a hurry to agree, I'll make the conditions clear. Once you graduate from the School of Advanced Nursing and pass the guΓ² certification exam, you will be at the same level as me in the future, and you will be a senior nurse. The salary is three times higher than that of ordinary nurses, and after a certain number of years of work, they may become a head nurse. However, my conditions are also here, because you were recommended by our hospital, and you must stay in our hospital for 15 years after graduating from the advanced nursing major of Dashang Medical College. ”

"Stay in Shengjing Hospital for fifteen years?" Guo Xiaoyun said curiously.

"That's right!" Fang Qing was above board, explained the conditions clearly, and said: "Don't think that my condition is very simple, you must know that once you can graduate from the high nursing major of Dashang Medical College, there will be countless hospitals that invite you to join!" Both domestic and foreign. You may get a much higher salary than in our hospital, and you may even have the opportunity to be recruited directly by political and business celebrities. Not only was it easy for you, but it was also a good salary! ”

"I promise your terms!" Guo Xiaoyun said firmly.

Fang Qing was stunned for a moment and said, "Really agree?" ”

Guo Xiaoyun nodded and said, "Nurse Fang, I like working in the hospital, and I am very happy to be able to help patients here." ”

Fang Qing rarely showed a smile, and immediately handed over a contract to Guo Xiaoyun.

"It's a contract, and while you're in school, your salary is paid as usual, and it's at the full rate. However, if you are removed from the school, we will recover the full amount of your salary and you will have to pay compensation. ”

After reading the contract, Guo Xiaoyun signed her name without hesitation.

"This is an opportunity for myself, once I get the senior nursing degree of Dashang Medical College, my younger brothers and sisters can live a stable life!"
