Chapter 37: The Revolutionary Party Comes to the Door (I)
"My lord, Fuguo also asked me to bring back fifty twenty-shot Mather pistols, each with a thousand rounds of ammunition, saying that your guard needs to strengthen its firepower. Enming's lessons from the past are still there, and we must guard against them. â
As soon as Li Muyan said this, Feng Xu's seated body leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "This is not a small amount, Fang Fuguo can't be generous to this point." â
Li Muyan smiled: "My lord is wise! After going out for 20 days this time, the other party also had some understanding of the country. My lord listened to me and said slowly....... Li Muyan roughly explained what Fang Jianxiong did in Wuhu. After listening to this, Feng Xu frowned quite puzzled: "In your opinion, what is Fang Fuguo's plan?" â
"Fang Fuguo is in Wuhu, Chapter 37 of the first volume of the first song, the revolutionary party comes to the door (up) to rejuvenate the industry, and emphasizes education, in just ten days, I watched him have been busy. I am afraid that such a person has a lot of ambitions and great plans. I thought that Fang Fuguo refused to come to Anqing New Army, because he was afraid that he would be troubled by the interests of the New Army and tie his hands and feet. It's better to be in Wuhu, where the place is small and there are few mothers-in-law. It's a pity that with his qualifications, even if he comes to Anqing, at most he will be a position in the camp management belt, and this position is not difficult to get no matter where he goes. On the whole, if you want to do business and do things, your loyalty to the court can be affirmed. Li Muyan's evaluation, except for the last point, everything else is right. If Fang Jianxiong heard it on the spot, he would definitely be shocked.
The last point of Li Muyan's judgment is what Feng Xu values the most. The ground in Anqing is not quiet, King Yue's activities are rampant, and Feng Xu is tired of coping.
"Mu Yan, what's wrong with this person?" Feng Xu slowly sat back and regained a calm posture.
"Greedy for money, listen to him, with the same batch of goods and the same price, he can still get 20,000 or 30,000 rods, and entrust him to find a buyer." Li Muyan couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart as he spoke, there is no psychological pressure at all when this money is earned.
Feng Xu listened to the first chapter of the first chapter of the first scroll of the revolutionary party (above) and laughed: "That's right, it's okay to be young and not have a little widow's disease?" You do this business, in addition, it is not appropriate for the new army to dominate the family, and the imperial court intends to organize more patrol battalions in each province to balance the new army. The patrol battalion also needs guns and ammunition, and Anqing also has to prepare some guns and ammunition in stock. You just have to do it, well, it's better to buy another 5,000 79 rifles. Feng Xu spoke, picking up the teacup.
Li Muyan got up with a smile and gave up his hand, and suddenly stopped: "By the way, my lord, Fang Fuguo also said that the manufacturing bureau in Anqing is rusty with its machine, so it is better to leave it to him to handle it, and ensure that it can become a hen laying golden eggs within two years." â
Anqing's manufacturing bureau is similar to the current state-owned enterprises. During the Xianfeng period, most of the foundation laid by Zeng Guofan, and later most of them moved to Shanghai, called Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau. During Enming's tenure, he spent some silver to buy some new machines, and at the beginning, he could repair guns and make some bullets himself. Later, Enming was assassinated, and after Feng Xu took office, this manufacturing bureau was basically unattended and could not be managed, because the general office was a flag man, and the assistant below was also a flag man.
When Enming was there, he was already very dissatisfied with manufacturing, and coupled with financial difficulties, the investment of the manufacturing bureau decreased sharply. Before Enming's assassination, the manufacturing bureau was basically in a state of shutdown. When Feng Xu took office, the flag men of the Manufacturing Bureau were clamoring to increase investment. Where these investments will go in the end, Feng Xu knows very well. Lord Futai wanted to take down the manufacturing bureau, but the banner people did not do it, so they simply stopped the funds of the manufacturing bureau on the grounds that they had no money in the treasury and on the pretext that it was better to buy what was built.
Now the two sides are still fighting lawsuits over this matter, and no one can help anyone. The assistant of the banner man relied on himself to be a hardcore crop, and Feng Xu sent someone to take over, so he dared to fight. The flag man sued Feng Xu, and when he arrived in the capital, he was also sunk in the sea.
So, just freeze it.
Fang Jianxiong didn't know what was going on here, he just wanted to find a reason to cultivate his own technical team. Feng Xu's attitude towards Fang Jianxiong is not bad now, and he doesn't suspect that he is a revolutionary, so he naturally considers Fang Jianxiong and says: "Mu Yan, you don't know about the mess in the Manufacturing Bureau, why don't you sue Fang Fuguo?" â
Of course, Li Muyan understood Feng Xu's thoughts, this one was distressed about the silver, and the other was unwilling to offend the banner man too ruthlessly. "My lord, what Fang Fuguo means, in the future, the bullets and shells of this new army will be purchased from him, and this abacus is shrewd enough. I thought that it was better to let Fang Jianxiong start another stove in Wuhu, but this money had to be raised by himself, and the adults gave him the name of the Mechanical Repair Institute. If he can get things done, the benefits of adults are indispensable here, and the court should be able to understand the difficulties of adults starting anew. If it can't be done, the adults will not lose the slightest. Speaking of this, Li Muyan said in his heart: Fang Fuguo, I am also worthy of a friend, and I can only talk about this.
Feng Xu hesitated, got up and paced for a while before saying, "That's fine, but it's better for you to go and tell him about this matter in person." The guns of the patrol battalion, and he was also counted on to operate. You take a day off, and the day after tomorrow you bring 40 students with you. This is the first batch. Well, he can recruit some more. â
âĻâĻâĻâĻâĻâĻâĻâĻ
Fang Jianxiong got up before dawn, and he was snorting his energy on the streets of Wuhu City. It's really depressing to say, go to Shanghai and come back, the inventory is very full, come back and prepare a good moisturizer for the little girl Qiu Ju, but the world is changeable, Qiu Ju's relatives who visit regularly every month came.
Qiu Ju was quite disappointed, not because of the failure of the good thing, but because she was not pregnant. Fang Jianxiong comforted him at night, Qiu Ju meant to call another maid to warm the bed, although Fang Jianxiong wanted to, but when he thought that he couldn't be too evil, he refused righteously.
The result of pretending to be a saint was uncomfortable, so I had to get up early in the morning and toss myself and two foreign devils. Running laps and coming back to punch and kick, taking a cold shower by the well in the backyard, the old lady who was scared by the cry of wow was so frightened that she hurriedly called someone to take a look. Knowing that this child took a cold water in the morning, he trained his subordinates well, and immediately pulled the young master back.
Fang Jianxiong ran back to the room wet, and Qiu Ju was in a hurry to serve, complaining while serving. "Young master, you should think about your body, what kind of wind and cold water are you pumping in this cold winter."
Fang Jianxiong couldn't listen to the woman's verbosity, and said with a smile: "This is not to be held back!" â
Qiu Ju, who was waiting to take off her clothes, turned red all of a sudden, quickly dried it with a towel, pushed the person on the bed and covered it with a quilt, and turned around; "I'll have someone cook a bowl of ginger soup." Fang Jianxiong stretched out his hand and grabbed it, "No! I'm really fine, I'm just holding back. â
"I'm going to die, the maid heard it, and I can't serve the young master well." Qiu Ju complained, brought underwear and let her change it on, thinking in her heart that she had to think of a way, the young master was when he was energetic, and a few newly bought fox girls in the family were learning how to serve in a big family. Qiu Ju can't compare with this aspect, don't look at them are still young, their bodies are all open, and they don't see one or two of their eyes when they see the young master. I'm afraid I've coveted my position for a long time.
After changing his clothes and coming out for breakfast, he was told by his wife again, Fang Jianxiong smiled and talked with him, and he didn't defend himself. When you finish eating, wipe your mouth, turn around and leave.
As soon as he came to the courtyard of the stable, the dark clouds were very spiritual, and they neighed happily when they heard the footsteps. Fang Jianxiong's horse has a special groom to serve, and every meal is made of concentrates such as eggs, yolks and soybeans. Fang Jianxiong came over, and the dark cloud horse lowered his head to rub, and the little mare also came over to please.
Gu Heng was in charge of the affairs outside the city, and the patrol battalion didn't want to move for the time being, so Fang Jianxiong had time to think about the enrollment of the teaching team.
After staying in the stable for a while, Fang Jianxiong instructed the groom to serve him well, and to spend time in the morning and afternoon. This groom is the best in the neighborhood, and the salary is enough, so he naturally does his best. Even so, every night, Fang Jianxiong came to feed it personally.
Leaving the stable, he prepared to go to Zhu Xiufeng and ask him to help recruit the students of the teaching team in the school in the county town. As soon as he put on a military uniform and packed up and was ready to go out, someone from outside came to report: "There are two people outside the door, who claim to have been introduced by the young master's friend." â
Fang Jianxiong secretly wondered, and said in his heart, I don't have many friends. Thinking about it, I came out to take a look, and the two young men who came to the door were both dressed as scholars in long robes.
Fang Jianxiong stepped forward and arched his hand, and said with a smile: "Down there is Fang Jianxiong, the word Fuguo, I have seen two brothers." â
The two young men looked like they were in their twenties, and they each stepped forward and arched their hands: "Wu Yanggu, the word Chunyang." "Xiong Chengji, the root of the word." Fang Jianxiong's historical level is too scummy, in fact, even if he was an ordinary liberal arts student in his previous life, if he didn't have personal preferences, he wouldn't know the names of these two. Historical figures, roughly for forgetting.
Intuition told Fang Jianxiong that these two are not a good way to come, and they are revolutionary parties. In fact, the revolutionary party is divided into many factions, and before the establishment of the alliance, they were fighting their own battles, even if the Liberation Society joined the alliance, and later the relationship was not handled well, Tao Chengzhang and Zhang Taiyan basically turned against Sun. Anhui and Zhejiang are more active in the Guangfu Society, but Fang Jianxiong is called a revolutionary party.
"The two of them are not ordinary. Please speak in the room! "Fang Jianxiong is quite polite, he doesn't plan to mix with these guys who don't know life and death, and know what to do. Anyway, Fang Jianxiong was determined to wait until Wuchang's side fought first, and then he would consider responding to the incident. Until then, no matter who says it, they will not be offended and will not join.
Invited the two into the study, Fang Jianxiong waited for the maid to go out with tea, and then smiled: "The two of you came here, I understand it in my heart." Don't open your mouth about joining the gang, don't conspire with each other. However, it doesn't hurt to be a friend, if you have difficulties to come to the door, within the scope of your ability, you will never refuse. â
