Chapter 465: The Moon Goddess
"Da Chao, haven't you always been good to others, why did you change your personality today and shoot at the academic world, this is not like your style?"
After Zhan Tianyou finished speaking, Kuang Jingyang couldn't help asking, he was a little surprised by the abnormality of his old classmates. Zhan Tianyou sat aside, sighed slightly, and said with a wry smile: "My body can't last long, and the hope for the future is still in the young people, I should say a few words for them, just hope that China's style of study can be reversed a little." Chinese scholars of all generations have been keen on two things, one is to be an official, and the other is to be coquettish. Now the times are different, what is needed is practical talents, solid science and engineering education, mathematics, physics and chemistry, and engineering architecture! ”
Kuang Jingyang nodded and said with a smile: "Da Chao is right, take the Jifeng Railway in front of us as an example, we have built it ourselves, so we don't have to be controlled by others, if we don't have the ability to repair, we have to rely on the South Manchurian Railway." No matter how many articles you write, no matter how nice the slogans are, it is useless, you can't get dignity, you can only exchange it for contempt, at most a little pity and sympathy. ”
"In the huge China, only the Northeast can still see a little hope, and can also attach importance to science and engineering education, and can attach importance to industrial development.
"The two gentlemen don't need to sigh, you can rest assured, since Fengjun has come to this point, he will not go back, and he will never give up if he does not realize industrialization and build China strong."
Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Reporters and students want to experience it on our train, and businessmen are also asking how our locomotives perform and whether the capacity can be compared with the Japanese." ”
"No problem, it's only better than the Japanese, and you can't go wrong!" Kuang Jingyang said with a smile: "Humble words, where did we get our jishu." You know better than I know that you can definitely overpower the Japanese. ”
As he spoke, Kwong Jingyang took the initiative to take some people to the front of the train, and many students, reporters, and businessmen followed him to the front of the train to carefully observe the train that was completely self-produced.
"Students, journalists, this locomotive is capable of pulling fifteen carriages, each weighing about 20 tons, that is to say, it can tow a total weight of 300 tons, which is already more than most Japanese locomotives running on the South Manchurian Railway. And through the joint efforts of workers and technicians. More than 300 processes have been improved by breakthroughs, more than 1,000 new designs have been used on the carriages, which are more humane, and generally save 10 percent of energy compared with locomotives imported from the West. ”
Kuang Jingyang said, and led everyone to the carriage. See for yourself. As a well-known reporter, Shao Piaoping will not miss this kind of excitement. He was from the time he boarded the carriage. I felt a little different.
"Mr. Kuang, how do I feel more relaxed and comfortable getting on and off the bus, is it an illusion?"
"Of course not, this is one of the things we have improved, in the past, the trains used in China were not imported from the West. It is imported from the East, and their height is not the same as that of the Chinese, some are too tall, some are too low. Now this one is completely tailor-made for the Chinese, and the effect is of course different. ”
Hearing Kuang Jingyang's introduction, everyone present felt excited, this is the benefit of their own production, otherwise you can only sell what others sell, what you buy, how can there be such a humanized design.
Everyone looked inside the carriage and nodded frequently, and the design style was completely oriental, which looked comfortable. After these people visited, they couldn't help but be amazed.
"Now the locomotive factory is working on more powerful locomotives, which can pull 500 tons, or even 1,000 tons of cargo, at a faster speed. If the development is successful, the freight volume can be more than doubled, and the same train can reach the previous two. Students all have the heart to serve the country, but how to serve the country needs to find a suitable way. Building machines, building projects, and engaging in jishu, these are all real, the country's military strength can be improved faster, and the people's lives can be better, this is the real service for the country! ”
The more the industry develops, the more it needs a large number of talents, the Northeast industry has begun to take shape, there is a talent gap everywhere, Kuang Jingyang and Zhan Tianyou, are distressed by this. Therefore, Kwong Jingyang will not let go of this good opportunity to guide more students to pay attention to science and engineering and natural science.
There are real things in front of us, this is the most convincing, some people shouted to save the country and save the people for many years, but the result is not at all effective. But Feng Jun can put a complete railway in front of everyone, and who is right and who is wrong, everyone will have some thoughts in their hearts.
The opening ceremony was finally over, and a large number of goods passed through the newly built railway, between Jilin and Mukden. A month earlier, the Japanese had closed the South Manchurian Railway, intending to coerce the merchants of Mukden.
But who knew that it backfired, and the arrogant actions of the Japanese actually stimulated all the Northeast merchants, the Japanese were not reliable at all, and they still had to support their own railways at critical moments.
After the ceremony, Zhang Tinglan gathered a large number of businessmen and threw out the idea of forming the Northeast Railway Company and openly accepting social shares. At the same time, the Harbin Rail Vehicle Company was also changed to a joint-stock system to encourage investment in shares.
Jibong Railway is in front of us, and the future of these two companies is extremely bright and the potential is unlimited, so they are naturally sought after by all parties. Moreover, this lively mood directly promotes the development of the Northeast Railway, and the existing railway can no longer meet everyone's needs.
As soon as the Northeast Railway Company was established, it was faced with a major task, to survey the environment in the entire northeast and determine the construction priorities of the next batch of railways as soon as possible.
These people all know that the railway can make a lot of money, and the only trouble is that the great powers will intervene, and jishu will be controlled by others, which will increase the cost, but these are not problems in the northeast, with a tough Feng army, coupled with a strong Liliang, self-built railways have become a matter of course.
Because the Jibong Railway is all built and managed by itself, the cost has been reduced by nearly half, and even the freight can be greatly reduced, although the distance is a little farther than the South Manchurian Railway, but the freight can save 30 percent, which naturally makes all businessmen rush to it.
"To put it mildly, the opening of the Jibong Railway came at the right time, which not only improved the economic and strategic situation of Northeast China. Moreover, the confidence and image of the Northeast have been reshaped, and the original outflow of capital has been controlled, and many people still hope to reinvest in the Northeast Railway Company. Next, as long as the railway is overhauled, the minerals and land along the way will be sought after, and the three eastern provinces are equivalent to a new investment hotspot, and the ability to absorb gold will be stronger! ”
Wang Yongjiang reported the situation to Zhang Tinglan, and Zhang Tinglan was also very happy, and indeed after the Jifeng Railway was built, the situation in the entire three eastern provinces was revitalized. The transportation of troops from the north and south did not need to go through the South Manchurian Railway, and there was no need to be controlled by others, and the Feng army took another solid step toward complete independence.
"Mr. Min Yuan, now the Jingfeng Railway. Jibong Railway and Middle East Road have been initially connected to the network. I am ready to implement a new policy in the three eastern provinces. Flat rate shipping. Harmonized business tax. For all commodities entering the three eastern provinces, the railway freight shall be subject to a unified standard, and the settlement shall be clear at one time. The same is true for commercial tax, which is levied only once in the three eastern provinces, including Rehe, and is no longer levied repeatedly. ”
The system of the Republic of China is somewhat modeled after the United States, a kind of loose federation. The autonomy of the provinces was too great, and even developed to the point that each province had its own tax and army, which also caused the problem of warlords everywhere.
Of course, this is not only a matter of the form of government, but also the jishu factor. The interconnection between the provinces is not good, there is no developed transportation connection, and the local government is independent. Now that the Feng army has controlled the territory of the four provinces and mastered three important railways, it already has the conditions for a unified economy.
"In my humble opinion, economic reunification is more important than military and political reunification, and I am also sorting out the local laws and regulations of the four provinces, striving to establish unified norms, and truly pinch the four provinces together to build a large joint market, so that there will be more chances of victory against the Japanese."
When it comes to the Japanese, Zhang Tinglan's heart is also moved, the South Manchurian Railway is definitely a piece of meat in the hearts of the Japanese, and now being done by Zhang Tinglan is equivalent to stripping meat from the Japanese, can these little devils agree!
In history, the railway between Ji Feng was connected, and within two years, the Japanese launched the 918 Incident, although there were some accidental factors, but we can also get a glimpse of the attitude of the Japanese, with an independent railway network, the Feng army has been free from the control of the Japanese, and can carry out industrial construction step by step, which is absolutely intolerable to the Japanese.
"Mr. Min Yuan, we should thank the Russians now, if they hadn't had a civil war and attracted the attention of the Japanese, I'm afraid that the Japanese would have used force against the three eastern provinces a long time ago!"
"The more it develops, the more intense the conflict between us and the Japanese will be, and sooner or later there will be a battle between the two sides, so in short, just be prepared."
Zhang Tinglan and Wang Yongjiang's views were not wrong at all, and after Consul General Fengtian Akajiri Massuke returned to the consulate, he hurriedly reported the situation to China.
The situation he saw today has already shocked him too much, the industrial level of the Feng army is rapidly changing, starting with light and heavy weapons, to steam locomotives, and if this continues, what the Japanese can produce, the Feng army will be able to produce, and the price will be cheaper and the quality will be better.
Once that time comes, the Japanese will lose the entire Chinese market and, of course, face a strong counterattack from the Feng army, armed to the teeth. If the Japanese have not done it for decades, the dream of invading China will be completely shattered, and the growing Feng army will become the number one threat in the eyes of the Japanese.
In fact, what puzzled the Japanese government the most was where the industrial strength of the Feng army came from! No one can produce these things out of thin air, and the Japanese already knew that the Feng army got a batch of machines from Russia.
In addition, the Japanese also firmly believed that the Feng army must have other channels to get the jishu and equipment of the great powers, and even received direct support from the great powers, otherwise the stupid Shina people would never have achieved such an achievement. Akajiri Massuke has been working hard to investigate the source of the Bongjun industrial equipment and jishu.
"Mr. Consul General, I have a secret letter for you."
After receiving the secret letter sent by the attendant, Akajiri Shosuke glanced at it and was immediately fascinated, and it was written that a batch of mysterious machines had been transported to Huludao a month ago, and the machines were huge and suspected to be metallurgical mining equipment.
After seeing this news, Akajiri Shosuke suddenly felt like a treasure, and it was obvious that this was what he had been trying to track down. Akajiri Shosuke hurriedly reported the situation to China, and after the Japanese government received the report, it also acted quickly. Feng Jun is like a little tiger, now it has grown fangs and claws, and if it continues like this, it will definitely be able to threaten the Japanese, and they can't help but be in a hurry.
The Japanese had been operating in China for a long time and their intelligence network was very impressive, and they soon gathered together the clues they found and discovered a shocking situation: the Feng army had recently transferred a large amount of important equipment from the Americas.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, according to accurate information, a cargo ship named Moon Goddess is carrying a batch of important machinery and equipment, heading towards Huludao, among which there are large industrial equipment, not even the Empire."
After Prime Minister Yuan Jing heard the news, his brows furrowed: "Can you know what it is?" ”
"It's not clear, but it's speculated that it could be steelmaking equipment and large forging equipment."
"Baga, no wonder the people of China can build artillery and locomotives, we must prevent this batch of equipment from being transported to Mukden."
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, this cargo ship belongs to the Americans, if it is intercepted, I am afraid there will be an international dispute?" (To be continued......)
