On January 2o, 19o8 (the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu), Baima Industrial Zone, Xingke Headquarters.

"Mr. Wen, there was news from Shanxi just now that the Shanxi Bureau of Commerce and the British Fu Company agreed to take 120,000 taels of silver as a ransom to recover all the mining rights in Shanxi. Gu Xiaolu reported.

"Hehe, those vinegar jars Lao Xi finally did a good thing......" Wen Desi smiled.

The birth time of this matter is the same as the historical facts of the original time and space, but this is the result of Wen Desi's intervention, otherwise the current Qing court has been overwhelmed by the revolutions in various places, how can it still be in the mood to do these things. As a result, Mr. Wen intervened, and under the instigation of his back, he redeemed the Shanxi mining rights at a lower price than the original time and space (the ransom of the original time and space was 2.65 million taels).

Gu Xiaolu continued: "The Tianjin branch reported that the keel in Anyang has been almost harvested, and the preliminary statistics are more than 650,000 pieces...... What do you do with these things?"

In the original time and space, the oracle bone inscriptions in Anyang suffered heavy losses due to indiscriminate excavation and a large number of outflows abroad, and only more than 100,000 pieces were left to China in the end. Since Mr. Wen came, of course it was different, he had already sent someone to Anyang to collect the "keel" at the end of 19o6. The people of Xingke bought the "keel" as a medicinal material merchant, and they collected it by catties, starting with 3 catties of copper yuan, and finally rising to 1 catty of copper yuan.

In April last year, it also bought several important pieces of land with the most buried land in the local area, and specially organized several professional excavation teams to dig it. After digging and collecting for more than a year, I basically scavenged all the "keels" that were easy to collect in the local area, and also got a lot of Yin Shang antiquities by the way, and the rest were those buried deeply. Moreover, they also found medicinal herb merchants from all over the country and pharmacies in North China, and took away all the "dragon bones" that were used as medicinal materials, basically guaranteeing that except for those that were eaten as medicine in the past, none of them were outflowed.

This is a huge project, and now it can be completed smoothly, and Wen Deji is very happy. And to get so many things, even the acquisition, land purchase, dredging joints, plus labor, travel expenses and other expenses, a total of less than 4o oceans, is too cheap.

"Well, these are precious cultural relics, but it's not convenient to transport them to Sichuan. In this way, let them build a warehouse in the local area first and store it properly...... "Anyway, when the things are in hand, there is no need to rush, and after the unification of the whole country in the future, those experts will be summoned to study."

At this time, the light brain on the desk made a prompt sound, and an email from the Beijing intelligence station came.

Wen Desi opened it and saw that it was the latest decision of the Qing court obtained by the insider.

With sufficient funds and centuries of leading technology, Xingke's Beijing intelligence station has infiltrated the Qing court like a sieve, and monitors and bugs have been installed in important places such as the military aircraft department and the study, and even Cixi's bed has been equipped with a bugging device. It can be said that if Lafayette decides to do something, the Beijing intelligence station will know the news before the ministers of military aircraft, and vice versa, the Beijing intelligence station will know about the reports to the military aircraft department from all over the country, or the results of the deliberations of the ministers of military aircraft, the Beijing intelligence station will know before Cixi.

"Lao Xi is really unlucky, the position of the governor of Yungui is not hot yet, and the old lady is going to transfer him to be the governor of Liangguang again. Wen Deji shook his head, and expressed his sympathy for Mr. Xiliang slightly.

After the "Ding Wei Revolution", the Qing court was forced by the revolutionary party to make another major adjustment to the governors of various places, and this time Xiliang was unfortunately shot while lying down.

After the failure of the Zhennanguan uprising last year, Sun Wen and they did not lose heart, but became more and more troublesome in Liangguang. This is mainly due to the influence of the domestic environment, and the revolution in eight provinces has been successful, and Sun Wen's cronies are naturally greatly encouraged. Moreover, these areas have restrained a lot of energy of the Qing court, and now that even Beijing has mutinied, where is there still a mood to manage the south.

The Qing court felt that Zhang Renjun, the governor of Liangguang, could no longer suppress the field, while Xiliang had crushed the revolutionaries to death in Yungui, and Sun Wen's Hekou uprising at the end of 19o7 was easily suppressed by him. The Qing court thought that Xiliang was too capable, and those who were able to work harder, and Liangguang was no more important than the poor place of Yungui, so they transferred Xiliang to the governor of Liangguang as the governor. Zhang Renjun was transferred to Zhili to become the governor, and the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou was succeeded by Li Jingxi, the nephew of Li Hongzhang, the former political envoy of Yunnan.

It must be admitted that Xiliang was indeed very capable, and when he became the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, he vigorously carried out the work of rectifying the administration of officials, building schools, rectifying armaments, building railways, and banning opium, and all of them achieved remarkable results. But these workers have just started, and their butts have not yet been hot, and they have been transferred away again, which is too frustrating. Of course, Lafayette can't do this, and it's not easy to find a capable and reassuring feudal official these days. As for whether Comrade Xiliang will be unhappy, this cannot be considered.

"Lao Zhao was transferred to be the minister in Tibet, and the governor of Sichuan originally asked Cen Chunxuan to take over, but this old slippery head didn't do it. Finally, let Chen Kuilong come over......" Looking at the information behind, the corners of Wen Desi's mouth curled.

"Is it very happy for Chen Kuilong to be the governor of Sichuan?" asked Gu Xiaolu puzzled.

Wen Desi smiled: "Hehe, originally I was still thinking about how to move the feelings of the people of Sichuan, but now it seems that I don't need to do anything, this thing is a detonator......" This classmate Chen is famous for being three feet high, even in the late Qing Dynasty when corruption was rampant, it was also the kind of powerful existence that made people look at it.

....................................................................................

On the same day, Wuchang, Hubei Provincial People's Government.

After the successful uprisings of the revolutionary parties in other provinces, the governments established were all called the "XX Military Government", but the government established by Kyodo was different, called the "Hubei Provincial People's Government". The location is the original governor's palace in Wuchang, and it can be done with a new brand.

On the first day of this year, Kyodo News announced that Kyodo News had been reorganized into the "Chinese Scientific Socialism Party." Comrade Luo Xi, former president of Kyodo News, served as vice chairman of the [Chinese Scientific Socialist Party], vice chairman of the Military Commission, and governor of the Hubei Provincial People's Government. As a result, a sign was added to the gate of the provincial government, "[Chinese Scientific Socialism Party] Hubei Provincial Committee".

What is strange is that Kyodo News only announced that Rossi was the vice president of the CSD, but did not announce who the chairman was. This makes the outside world very puzzled, even a prominent figure like Rossi is actually just the vice chairman, so who will be the chairman?

However, for the guests who came to the door today, who is the chairman of the CST is not their primary concern.

"Mr. Vice President, you must ensure that you do not harm the interests of the British Empire at home......," said the British Consul General in Hankow, giving Rossi a contemptuous look, and in a very arrogant tone. “...... If you, the CSOC, recognize all the treaties that the Qing have signed with us, we can recognize you as belligerents......"

Rosie smiled and said, "Mr. Consul General, I think you may be mistaken. What we are doing in the CSD is a war of national liberation, which will continue whether Britain recognizes it or not. The foreign policy of our CSD is equality and mutual benefit, and we will protect the legitimate rights and interests of foreigners in our country, but we will never recognize an unequal treaty signed by the Manchu government......"

The British Consul General's face was suddenly difficult to see, it was simply inconceivable that as a diplomat of the most powerful empire on the planet, he should be refused by a gang of rebels. In the opinion of the Consul General, his request was not excessive at all, even well-intentioned.

Without waiting for him to speak, Rossi continued: "Mr. Consul General, we [the Chinese Scientific Socialist Party] are very willing to establish friendly diplomatic relations with your country, but the premise is that it is equal and mutually beneficial, and we, as revolutionaries, will never do anything like the Manchu government to lose power and humiliate the country. As for the previous treaties signed between the Manchu government and your country, we can discuss them slowly and maintain the status quo until the results are known......"

Hearing this, the consul general's face softened. In his view, this was just a tactful remark by the rebels in order to maintain face, and the original aim of Britain was to maintain the status quo, and in their eyes, the CSD was nothing more than a group of rebels, and it was enough to recognize the interests of the British Empire, and it was far from qualified to be a formal negotiator. At this time, the British Empire had not yet degenerated into a diplomatic relationship with a gang of thieves.

"Hmph, I hope you remember today's words, the interests of the British Empire are absolutely inviolable!" the consul general dropped these words and prepared to leave. He felt that staying here for a while would be torture for himself, and if it weren't for the fact that these rebels still had some fighting power, and the Manchus were so bad, the British would not be interested in dealing with a gang of traitors.

When he was about to go out, Rossi suddenly said, "Mr. Consul General, is your country interested in trading with us?"

"Oh, what kind of trade?" the Consul General paused.

"We are ready to carry out import and export balanced trade with your country, and we both have what the other needs, your country's iron ore, copper ore, oil, grain, cotton, our raw silk, pig bristles, mosquito coils...... We think the deal could be set at £2ooo million this year......"

With Rossi's words, the consul general gradually turned his head and his expression became more and more pleasant. By the time Rossi said "£2oo million", he was back in his seat.

"Mr. President, I think we can talk more about this in more detail...... "The Consul General said with a smile on his face.

The cows and cows of this era are real cows, they occupy almost one-third of the earth, and they are a veritable empire on which the sun never sets. But no matter how good they are, they are only an island country with a native population of only 4ooo. Dominating one-third of the Earth with a population of 4ooo million, no matter how clever their means are, they have already endured.

Therefore, Britain no longer pursues the expansion of the colonial area, but hopes to obtain market and economic benefits. Now the biggest responsibility of these bullish diplomats is to help their countries occupy more markets and get more trade. And the Chinese market is their biggest headache, the country is extremely conservative, for goods basically only in and out, if it were not for the huge ships and opium, the huge annual trade deficit would have turned Niu Niu into China's wage earners.

Even now, I have beaten my big fat a few times in a row, but the trade volume has not increased much. Although I got a lot of compensation from Daqing, I couldn't sell my goods, and no matter how much compensation I had, it didn't work as expected.

You must know that the trade volume between the entire Qing Dynasty and Britain is less than two million pounds per year, and most of it is opium......

And today, Mr. Consul General suddenly appeared, this group of rebels, no, they are ** armed, actually gave themselves a huge surprise. 2ooo million pounds a year is still a preliminary plan, and it will not be long before this level can be maintained for five consecutive years, and this huge political achievement is enough for Mr. Consul General to become a knight. As for whether the CSOC will be able to complete this contract, the Consul General is not at all worried, there are no forces on the planet that dare to play tricks on the British Empire, at least not yet.

An hour later, Mr. Consul General left the compound of the Hubei Provincial People's Government happily, this time not only achieving the expected goal, but also achieving an unimaginable diplomatic result.

....................................................................................

For the "Ding Wei Revolution" born in China, the European and American powers have been acting as onlookers since then. Because this revolution came too suddenly, it was less than 2 months from the beginning of Kyodosha's Heungsan Campaign, and the mountains and rivers changed color, and the world was in chaos. Because of the ambiguity of the situation, countries are still discussing how to respond, and no immediate decision can be made.

By January 19o8, they could finally conclude that the war in China would not end anytime soon. They could also see that the Manchu regime was at an end. Although it is difficult to judge who will eventually become the future government of China among the large number of revolutionary parties, judging from the current situation, the [Chinese Scientific Socialist Party] is undoubtedly the most vigorous, the most organized, and the most modern force.

The diplomatic achievements of the British were no secret, which encouraged the other powers.

In the following days, diplomats from France, the United States, Germany, Russia and other powers arrived in droves, and these countries also achieved satisfactory results, ranging from a few million to tens of millions of pounds in trade, which made the diplomats feel that the trip was worthwhile. What surprised them the most was this form of import and export balance, and it was really rare for Chinese to understand the importance of balanced trade.

They all felt that the top brass of the CSD was clearly well educated in the Western style, and that their attitude, though much tougher than that of the Manchu government, was at least a point of exchange. Unlike those Qing court officials, even if they have been beaten to the point that they can't take care of themselves, they can't communicate, and they don't know what they're thinking.

In particular, Ma Dun, the consul general of Hankow in the United States, was extremely surprised by Rossi's fluent American English and familiarity with American society. This is a pro-American regime, and if they unify the whole of China, then ...... The excited Mr. Ma Dun has already seen a bright future for himself.

The Japanese consul general was an exception, who came in a hurry and returned in defeat. The other powers all have commodities that the CSO needs, but what does Japan have? Of course, if they are willing to export girls, it is not impossible to engage in balanced trade. But these little devils just want to take advantage, and they want the Science and Technology Socialist Party to continue to sell the iron ore produced by Daye to them at a low price, so they have to touch the ashes.

According to Rossi, whoever signs a contract with you will go to whomever you want. I'm not convinced, I'm not convinced, I'm going to bite me!
