Seriously speaking, it has been a long time since Yan Shao went to Dalian last time.

So when Yan Shao arrived in Dalian, he almost didn't recognize the city. There is no other reason, because the city of Dalian has changed so much during this time.

"It's really changing with each passing day..."

Looking at the brand-new city in front of him that can almost make everyone look at him, Yan Shao couldn't help but say with some emotion.

"This is also thanks to the great president, if it were not for the great president who swept away the Quartet, completely laid the foundation of our party, and then expanded the territory, how could we Dalian usher in such a good opportunity for development..." Standing beside Yan Shao, after hearing Yan Shao's words just now, a local official hurriedly came up to curry favor. Therefore, it can be said that such achievements can be made now, and it can be said that it is completely thanks to the great president, your blessing! ”

Although this is completely naked sycophancy, I have to say that Yan Shao still likes to listen to these words, and the most important thing is that Yan Shao doesn't feel that the other party said anything wrong.

After all, others don't know, but Yan Shao himself knows it clearly, if it weren't for his own crossing, then today's China doesn't know what it has been ruined, where will there be this kind of glory in front of him.

Especially after the Xinhai Revolution, according to the original historical trajectory, from 11 years to the present, it has experienced the chaos of the second revolution, followed by the arrogance of the Japanese in the Battle of Qingdao, and Yuan Shikai himself wanted to be the emperor and wanted to go crazy and then led to the restoration.

I have to say that after the Second Revolution, it was the best time for China. Because after the successful defeat of the Kuomintang. Yuan Shikai has already controlled half of China.

In the future, as long as Yuan Shikai can make great efforts, it is not impossible that China will develop into a relatively powerful country. After all, no matter what. Yuan Shikai was also a figure who was once called 'Living Cao Cao', although his thinking was a little old. But the ability is definitely there.

This can be seen from the development of the Beiyang government, and almost all of the industries of the Republic of China, especially the military industry, were laid down by the Manchu government or the Beiyang government. However, after the establishment of the government of the Republic of China, these industries barely grew at all, and not only that, but regressed a lot.

It must be said that the later Kuomintang was indeed a waste.

And in addition to those mentioned above, after the end of the war. First, there was the betrayal at the Paris Peace Conference, and then there was the May Fourth Movement.

Then, with the death of Yuan Shikai, the fate of a person with authority was missing, that is, the Beiyang government, which was originally relatively stable, was completely divided, and in the blink of an eye, it was divided into several factions and fought with each other.

China also entered a period of warlord war...

Historically, China's population growth figures have been negative almost every year from the time after the Xinhai Revolution to the establishment of the new government in 194X. This shows how strict the chaotic Cheng dù was at that time.

Not to mention the 918 Incident in 31 years and the later 77 Incident, these two events were the beginning of all the humiliation in China later.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Since the Opium Wars, so to speak. By the end of World War II, in this short period of about a hundred years, China experienced humiliation. Almost more than the shame of the last 5,000 years.

Maybe people in this era don't know this, but Yan Shao knows it clearly.

Also for this reason. For the flattery of the official just now, Yan Shao accepted it with peace of mind.

Of course. As mentioned earlier, people in this era are basically not very aware of Yan Shao's contributions. So when Yan Shao was a little proud of the flattery of others, Elaline and others would often remind Yan Shao that he should be humble.

After all, if you are too proud, it is easy to be looked down upon by others, and it is easy to be despised by others.

Of course, Yan Shao knew that they were right, but Yan Shao did not change because of this. Because Yan Shao knows very well that these flattering words are well deserved.

In that case, what else needs to be changed?

But even so, the city's somewhat extraordinary speed of development still made Yan Shao a little surprised. After all, he remembered that when he came last year, the city was still a little dilapidated, but this year, there are so many more high-rise buildings, and the entire city's skyline has been renewed again.

This qiē made Yan Shao couldn't help but be a little sideways.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Just when Yan Shao was a little sideways about the changes in Dalian during this time, the official who had been following him on the side introduced on the side.

"As the largest and most important port city in Northeast China, Dalian has always been one of the main channels for foreign exchanges. Both externally and externally. ”

"For example, if you plan to export industrial products in the entire Northeast region, there are only two ways to choose, one is to take the railway, and then transport them to all parts of the country, and the other is to go to Dalian, and then transport them to some Chinese cities around the world and along the coast by sea and land."

"The advantages of rail transport are naturally very obvious, after all, many places are impossible to reach by sea. But in the same way, water transportation also has some advantages that railway transportation does not have, such as it can be more convenient to transport to coastal cities, and there are also exports to foreign countries..."

"At present, about eighty percent of Northeast China's foreign exports are to Dalian, and more than half of the trade is to Japan. It was with this trade that the city enjoyed almost rapid growth during this time..."

"That's true." Hearing what the official said, a security guard who was following Yan Shao also spoke softly on the side. "Recently, there has been a large number of Japanese people moving in to the Dalian area. Many of them are businessmen who have dealings with our country, but there are also some who seem to have special backgrounds. We've been monitoring this all the time, just because of the Japanese who have been operating in China for a while. I usually handle my identity very well, so it's hard to get real evidence..."

The security officer was from the Secret Service Bureau, so he knew this very well.

As mentioned earlier, Dalian is the most important channel for the export of industrial products and a series of other products in Northeast China. At least half of these exports are to Japan.

Similarly, most of the goods imported from Japan are imported to the Tohoku region through Dalian.

Then, the question arises...

Since the economic ties between the two countries are so well developed, it is only natural that many Japanese people will choose to move into China and set up their companies in some northeastern cities. At the very least, a branch should be set up in a city like Dalian.

And so it goes. Naturally, many Japanese people will move in to live in China.

The next thing to face is a more serious problem.

Which of these people could be spies for the Japanese?

No one can guarantee this, although the Secret Service has always been strict in its arrest of spies. However, in recent times, perhaps because there are so many cases that have been solved, the result is that the Japanese are becoming more and more capable in this area day by day, and now, every time the Special Affairs Bureau cracks an espionage case, it needs to put at least ten times more effort than in the past.

Of course. This is not to say that the Special Affairs Bureau really doesn't even have any clues, it's just that in many cases, even if you know that the other party is suspicious, there is no tangible evidence, since this is the case. Naturally, there is no way to take the initiative to arrest them.

Although it is true that the Nationalist government is an authoritarian government, it is not a dictatorial government, and the kind of arrest without evidence can be carried out. But it must have Yan Shao's special approval. This is also to avoid some things that Yan Shao does not want to see.

In addition, the target of the arrest is somewhat sensitive after all.

Of course, Yan Shao will not be afraid of the Japanese. If he was afraid, then during the Battle of Qingdao and the Korean War. Yan Shao has already been cowardly, where will he wait until now?

The crux of the matter is that this is a period of rapid economic development in China. At this time, the most important thing is to develop the economy, and if China wants to develop the economy, it is of course a way out to work its own internal skills, but the help from the outside world is also indispensable.

For example, those foreigners who want to open factories in China, for example, those foreigners who help China improve its technological level. These are essential.

If the government had started arresting businessmen without sufficient evidence, it would have been easy for even some Japanese to cause some riots.

Even, if the Japanese make a big splash, it's hard to say whether it will cause a sense of fear in businessmen from other countries who are reluctant to come to China to invest in the economy because of fear and fear.

This is something that no one dares to guarantee, and no one knows.

But one thing is certain, that is, if such a thing happens, the Japanese government will definitely try to publicize it in every possible way, and even want the world to know that if it does, it will definitely have a huge impact on the reputation of the national government.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It is precisely because of these or other concerns that although the Special Affairs Bureau knows that many of them are serving the Japanese government, it has no way to do it.

On the other hand, after hearing the words of the bodyguard just now, the local official who spoke not long ago couldn't help but smile awkwardly. After all, it wasn't long ago that he praised Sino-Japanese trade.

"In any case, the city has changed so much, and your hard work is also in it." Speaking of which, Yan Shao glanced at the city's skyline again. "But in such a short period of time, you can make such a big change, you have really worked hard. As for the Japanese, this is also inevitable, after all, it is impossible to keep all the guests out of the door when they open the door to welcome guests..."

Uh-huh, sorry, I'll make up for it before dawn tomorrow morning!!
