The snowflakes fell along the window, which made the air in the carriage drop a lot, Luo Sanniang, who grew up in the south, was obviously not suitable for the sudden cold northeast weather, although she put on a fur coat, her pretty face was still red from the cold. ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※

Yue'er is much better, like a chirping lark, the two snuggled together, holding their arms and pointing out the window, from time to time there were two coquettish laughs, looking at the two girls who were more delicate than flowers, Young Master Li really wanted to squeeze into the middle immediately, hugged left and right to enjoy the blessings of Qi people.

From Lushun to Fengtian by train, then from Fengtian to Changchun, and then to Harbin, but also detoured to Yanji to see the progress of Maoshan Iron Mine, and then took two girls to visit Changbai Pool, from Jilin back to Fengtian to take the train back to Lushun.

After going around in such a big circle, Li Mo also experienced why the ancients went out once as if they were separated from life and death, in this era when transportation is not developed enough and communication is basically nonexistent, no one knows about the death of a guest in a foreign land, and it is really not a new thing.

After this trip, Li Mo finally knew what it meant to be poor and white

But it's also because it's a blank sheet of paper, so you can write beautiful chapters.

After the completion of the Lufeng Railway, the construction corps of the construction of this railway has been fully invested in the completion of most of the Fengtian to Jilin via Changchun, and the two main roads from Fengtian to Donggang via Dandong have also begun to accelerate, according to the rainy season of the Ministry of Construction, it will be opened to traffic in another year and put into use, once these three major arteries are connected in series, the main Jilin and Liaodong provinces will embark on the road of development.

Although the progress of Heilongjiang has slowed down, half of the dream of connecting the main trunk line within five years has been realized, which is not only the efforts of hundreds of thousands of coolies, but also inseparable from the mood work of the Ministry of Construction of the Government Council.

After this long-distance inspection, he also intuitively understood how great his potential is, and also had a clear context for the future, and he was happy that the two years of net investment had made the ordinary people in the three provinces gradually accept the government's rule, and even the Oroqen and other ethnic minorities, with the help of joint ventures to establish animal husbandry and other projects, the hostility is gradually disappearing.

This is good news, although I dare not be monolithic from now on, but at least wait until I wave my army into the pass, the constraints from the rear will be much smaller, without Japan, as long as the ambitious Nicholas II is defeated again, this will really become its own big rear.

"By the way, Nikolai, that storm bean, how many capital ships have you made?"

Li Mo wrinkled his brows, and was thinking about whether to inquire about the progress of Russia, Duan Fei had already walked to his seat with a telegram: "Young Master, Lin Yongxiang and Tan Wang have returned to Western Australia, and according to the telegram forwarded from Guam, they have delivered the goods to the Boers." ”

That's great

Young Master Li rubbed his hands and sharpened his teeth, he could wait for the Anglo-Boer War, and he had already thought about selling a batch of arms confiscated by Japan to them, in addition to getting a vote, he also hoped to retaliate against Britain for supporting Japan in this way, but unfortunately it was too far away, and Young Master Li had no way to stretch his hand directly over at present, so he could only learn from Germany's practice and export weapons to get a little bit.

Fortunately, although Europe knew that the Boer contradictions were increasing at this time, few people still predicted the outbreak of this war, so Britain only restricted foreign cargo ships coming from the Atlantic, but did not expect to let him arrive on the island of Mozambique from the Indian Ocean. 【 I want: super fast update 】

"Young master, the first batch of those things has also been transported there from Guam, do you think we should prepare to prevent the British from retaliating?"

Of course, Young Master Li knew what Duan Fei was talking about, a full 100 million pounds of counterfeit money, which was stored in several secret warehouses in Guam and Honolulu, and only the first batch was shipped to Africa, and the quantity was only one-tenth, so he smiled: "Revenge? Why, are you afraid of the British? ”

"That's not it, my people do things, I know, they will definitely find agents to spend money on purchases, and then remove them without leaving clues, but the question is, once Britain finds out that there is an extra batch of currency in circulation on the market, will it think of us to retaliate." Duan Fei replied.

Li Mo shook his head, in fact, the appearance of the fake pound was very accidental, and he himself never thought that at that time, in order to establish his own perfect financial system, he set up a laboratory for the development of coins in many laboratories of the Ministry of Science and Technology, and specially recruited a lot of people in forgery, and even brought more than a dozen domestic antique writers and masters in the Qing Dynasty, and then studied them together with the anti-counterfeiting technology brought by him in later generations.

In order to develop banknotes that are difficult to imitate, these people racked their brains, starting with the paper watermark encryption, and then the embossing, texture and wire addition, etc., and even used the technology of other laboratories, and in order to experience the difficulty of counterfeiting from many aspects, these guys also spent a lot of effort to imitate the major currencies of several countries, including the British pound.

Rothschild had racked his brains for the pound sterling, and finally came up with a very unique anti-counterfeiting technology for relief plates, which is still strictly kept secret by them and the British government, so it is far more difficult to counterfeit the pound than the dollar, but I didn't expect that when learning from the anti-counterfeiting technology of the pound, an old man who forged antiques from the Qing Dynasty came up with this technology through local methods.

Master Li didn't care about it at first, until Britain transferred the two battleships he had ordered to Japan, and when he was thinking about how to retaliate against Britain, he thought of this technology, took the initiative to remove this technology from currency printing, and began to secretly print fake pounds, ready to deal with emergencies.

But counterfeit money is counterfeit money after all, although this batch of simulation is extremely high, even many senior bankers are difficult to distinguish, but can not transport a shipload of pounds to the UK to exchange it, so he thought of through Africa and Latin America these remote places, taking advantage of the pound is a good opportunity for international hard currency, the money through the purchase of materials to spend, because both are remote areas, there is not too high a level of identification, can be directly to the bank swaggering use of the pound pound to test.

Today's pound sterling, as the only international currency at present, reserves in the market is very large, a few years later they may find that there is an extra batch of excess currency in the market, but now is the gold standard era before the First World War when Britain dominated the world, and the annual import of British gold through the colonies is as many as several hundred tons, even if it is found that there is more paper money, Britain only needs to invest the same proportion of gold reserves, and it also saves the high cost of printing pounds, and does not affect the value and stability of the pound.

As long as they do not leave any clues in secrecy, then the British will not use this batch of fake banknotes to drive warships all over the world to track down the culprit, not to mention that the Anglo-Boer War is about to begin, and when the British find this batch of counterfeit money, they may have already been dragged into the quagmire of South Africa, and when they get through the war, they will have to face the competition from Germany at sea and on the road at the same time, and they will not have the energy to find the culprit.

gold standard

It was a good time

Young Master Li cracked the corners of his mouth, and it happened that Yue'er's beautiful eyes were also looking over, and he smiled slightly: "As long as you do this secretly, don't leave any clues, there won't be much of a problem on the British side." ”

"Then I'll be relieved." Duan Fei nodded and was just about to leave, but was stopped by Young Master Li: "By the way, Fu Bo should have come back, you contact him and ask him if I am ready for my wedding next month, Yue'er is probably in a hurry, oh, right, Yue'er?" ”

"Phew, the ghost wants to marry you" Yue'er rolled her eyes at Li Mo, Sanniang didn't know what she said in her ear, and the two girls suddenly laughed again, which made Duan Fei also smile bitterly, and nodded in agreement.

In the city of Beijing, the snow is falling, the lanterns are hanging high, the red is reflected in the door, and every household is quiet in the joy of the year.

Looking at the bright red lantern on the door beam, Kang Youwei frowned, closed the fold after thinking for a while, put down the pen and turned around and flicked the brazier, when he was just about to go back to see if there was a problem with the folding, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and he turned his head to see Tan Sitong shaking off the snowflakes and walking in with a smile.

"I said who braved the wind and snow early in the morning, it turned out to be resurrected."

"Hehe, I just heard someone outside that the young master Li got married in Jinzhou half a month ago and married four ladies together, so I didn't deliberately bring the news to Brother Lele of Guangsha."

"Oh? Li Mo got married? ”

"Well, I heard that there were just some family banquets, and there was no extravagance, but the government and the army deliberately took a three-day holiday to celebrate."

The news made Kang Youwei frown, since ancient times, he has said that he has started a family, and he has heard that a woman next to him has become pregnant, and now he has officially married and started a family, so does it mean that he is going to officially start a business?

Tan Sitong didn't pay attention to Kang Youwei's application, and after shaking off the snowflakes on his body, he saw Kang Youwei with paper and pen on the table, and said in surprise: "What are you busy with during the New Year?" ”

"Fold." Kang Youwei turned his head, temporarily let go of his reverie about the north, and his face suddenly became serious: "The emperor will summon me to the upper study in three days to give advice to the Minister of Military Aircraft to change the law, isn't it just written, is there a problem with resurrection to help me?" ”

"Fold? If I'm not mistaken, this is the sixth fold," Tan Sitong said as he picked up the fold and read it.

"The Edict Co-ordinates the Overall Fold"

"Kang Youwei, the director of the Ministry of Labor, is in danger of external provocation, dividing and dividing the situation, and it is urgent to be angry in a timely manner, swear to work, open up the political situation of the system, reform the old map, save the country, and petition on behalf of the minister.

After the defeat of Ma Jiang, the legal person was based on Yue, and at this time, he was worried about current affairs, and he was in vain.

Sincerely. ”

"Well written." After reading more than 6,000 words, Tan Sitong couldn't help but applaud, this fold not only listed the current shortcomings of the imperial court, but also expressed the current situation of foreigners outside the Qing Dynasty and the situation of strong and powerful separation, but also elaborated on the benefits of Wei with the example of Poland and other countries, which can be said to be a comprehensive summary of Kang Youwei's gains in the past few years.

Kang Youwei couldn't laugh, he raised his frowns and frowned: "Don't hide your resurrection, if this fold is handed over, I'm afraid this snow will fall heavily."

Tan Sitong didn't know Kang Youwei's thoughts, Wei was already ready to send at this time, after this fold was folded, there were only two ways left, winning, then the Qing Dynasty could regain the mountains and rivers, but if it was defeated

That's the head on the ground

"There is no doer, there is no future, there is no death, there is no calling." Tan Sitong muttered two sentences, suddenly handed the fold to Kang Youwei, and nodded: "My heart is strong, and it is imperative to do it."

"Okay" Kang Youwei also shouted: "Resurrection will leave for Hunan today, foolish brother, after I hand over this fold, if the emperor really has a heart, he will call all over the country to help in Beijing, if you can't wait for the edict, then." Speaking of this, he also took a deep breath: "From now on, I will never mention the matter of Wei again in Nanshan." ”

Si Tong also nodded violently: "I'll go back to Hunan to organize Wei, he will meet in the capital one day, and he will definitely help Brother Guangsha desperately" After speaking, he clasped his fists and saluted, shook off his stride and rushed into the snowflakes, raising the white snow like dust to envelop his back.

Until the figure disappeared completely, Kang Youwei found that the fold in his palm suddenly became as heavy as a thousand catties.

In this recital, he quoted Poland, Egypt, Turkey, Myanmar and other countries in danger of being divided or in danger of dying due to their conservatism, and believed that the trend of all countries in the world, "If it can change, it will be complete, and if it does not change, it will die; Full change is strong, and small change is still dead". The reason why China is facing danger is because the old conservative law does not know how to change.

At the same time, he also suggested that Emperor Guangxu convene his ministers at the Temple of Heaven, Taimiao or Qianqing Gate, announce the change of law, and "edict the state is".

After Emperor Guangxu listened to the performance, he suddenly felt very reasonable, so he ordered him to be appointed to walk in the military aircraft department, and at the same time recruited peacekeeping leaders from all over the country to enter Beijing to participate in the affairs of the United States, and Tan Sitong, who had just left Beijing, went to Beijing again.

Soon after the performance, Kang Youwei felt that the conservative forces dominated by the party were still unwilling in the future, so he hoped that the combination of internal and external methods would create a momentum that the whole country was looking forward to the defense, and immediately established the National Protection Association in Beijing with his younger brother Kang Guangnian and others, and the purpose of the meeting was to "protect the country, protect the species, and protect the religion", that is, to ensure that the state power and territory are not lost, to ensure that the ethnic groups can stand on their own feet, and to protect the holy religion.

In addition, it is planned to set up general associations in Beijing and Shanghai, and branches in various provinces, prefectures, and counties, with the intention of uniting the wisdom of the people, and working together to save the people with anger and promote the maintenance movement.

The Wei Movement, which thought it was the only way to save the country, finally began vigorously, and there were conflicts between the Wei Party and the Emperor and Empress Party from time to time, and when the people of the country were looking to Beijing to wait and see how the dispute between the Wei and the Hou Party would end, Master Li quietly left Lushun and arrived in the Ryukyus under the pretext of going on a honeymoon.

At this time when the country was in chaos, the first keel was quietly laid in the No. 6 dock of the Ryukyu Shipyard, which had been closed, and the Chinese shipbuilding project, which was almost all the important enterprises under the name of the Chinese Government Council, was quietly launched in the boiling maintenance movement and when all countries were immersed in the study of various technologies of the Jinghai class.
