Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

Chapter 350
Andre's garrison switched defenses, and Berg followed closely in Andre's footsteps, and was transferred away from the ice city a week later.

The new director of the Eastern Railway Company (Northern Manchuria Railway Bureau) has not yet been appointed, and the ice city has really become Zhu Chuanwen's ice city for the time being, and small officials like Kodaev are beginning to move closer to Zhu Chuanwen...

Their reason was justified. As employees of the railway bureau, they should also belong to the Bingcheng Workers' Union, automatically classifying themselves as a group of workers.

So, Qiao Hongguo, who had been busy for several days, went up to the top floor of Hanyao headquarters with a smile on his face, and came to talk to Zhu Chuanwen.

"President, the Bingcheng Workers' Federation has ushered in great development this time." Today, the headquarters of the Workers' Federation is on the second and third floors of the former Hanyao Building, and the original Zhu Chuanwen's office is Qiao Hongguo's office.The Bingcheng Workers' Federation is a banner of Bingcheng, and it is also a starting point. It is the common affiliation of Hanyao and all the workers in Bingcheng. To a certain extent, the importance of the trade union is comparable to that of the insurance team.

"Why, there are more people joining recently?" Zhu Chuanwen asked the secretary to serve tea, and then asked.

"President, we can't penetrate into the original expatriate area at all. The Russian factory owners there basically allow workers to join the ice city trade union. But now, except for the 17 factory workers that Hanyao took over enthusiastically, the rest of the Russian The factory is also enthusiastically signing up, and the Russian workers even asked to start giving them silver dollars." Qiao Hongguo said with a smile.

The ruble has already begun to depreciate. Russia's domestic economy has not been very good. In other words, Russia, an empire that started from robbing houses, has been hindered in the development of the Far East in recent years, and secondly, it has not benefited much in Europe. It's more like falling into a quagmire, which makes the already sluggish domestic economy a bit worse.

In the Qing court, the reform of the silver dollar has been gradually carried out in recent years, but it has bottomed out.

At this stage, the Qing court has a large number of cooperative relations with the United Kingdom.

Not to mention foreign tobacco, this thing has now become a crop in farmers' farmlands in Shaanxi, Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou. Zhu Chuanwen remembers that there was such a description in "White Deer Plain": Planted in ten acres of foreign tobacco fields, the Bai family Turned around.

It can only be said that the Qing court, or the feudal dynasty, has never extended its tentacles of rule, this last "100 meters", and the real arm shouting of the Qing court representative at the World Anti-smoking Conference is now bullshit, the shit on his butt They're all scabbed, and I'm looking for toilets everywhere...

Speaking of silver dollars, the Qing court now imports more than half of its cotton cloth imports from the United Kingdom. The reformed silver dollars and the British pound have been docked for the past few years, at least temporarily maintaining the value of silver dollars.

However, this has actually entered the lowest price of silver, and it will not fall any further.

In this era, the British-led hegemony model has a term in later generations—classical liberal globalization.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Qing court became poorer as it traded more and more. Since 1871, Europe has successively abandoned silver, and began to transform from the original double standard of gold and silver to a single gold standard.The British pound is against the gold stored in the country. Other European countries, such as Germany, have the gold mark, and the Russians have the gold ruble.It can be said that the establishment of the gold standard system has accelerated the process of rapid poverty in the Qing Dynasty as a whole.

This means that China, a country with a silver standard, has rapidly evaporated the silver wealth obtained by exporting agricultural and handicraft products in the East Asian continent for hundreds of years. Trade deficit, a series of conspiracies against the Qing Dynasty.

But now, the time of being targeted has come to an end, and the increasingly tense situation in Europe has caused prices to continue to rise. Marks, rubles, and francs have already highlighted the trend of depreciation. Hanging in the Americas, stay out of the matter; the Qing Dynasty is manipulated by various imperialists, stay out of the matter; together with the little man, the economies of these regions have unexpectedly experienced a slow economic recovery.

"Okay, discuss this matter with Xia Yuanzhang. It is not impossible to issue silver dollars when we are free." Zhu Chuanwen said with a smile. The ruble in his hand must be spent in a short time, and the more you hold it, the faster it will depreciate. , This is why Zhu Chuanwen and the Russians have been trading guns in the form of barter.

Zhu Chuanwen didn't understand economics, and neither did Xia Yuanzhang.But the Russian workers asked for silver dollars, so it seems that this is a good thing after all.

Hanyao's money actually has an insurance, the Japanese yen, Yasuda Bank is Japan's leading financial overlord at this time.So speaking of it, Hanyao temporarily hooked up with the Japanese through Yasuda, and the silver dollars of the entire Qing court were also temporarily hooked up with the pound and the dollar, so I was very relieved.

By the way, speaking of Yasuda, Zhu Chuanwen has been worrying about how to answer Ito Hirobumi with them these two days...

"Okay, President, I'll let you know this from the gossip first, but are we really not going to fire the Russian workers in the expatriate area?" Qiao Hongguo said with some puzzlement. The wages of Russian workers are about 20% of that of Chinese workers. But both play similar roles, and the level of education in Russia is really not as good as the night school system for workers in Bingcheng.

In Qiao Hongguo's view, it's not worth it now.

"I promised Andre that in half a year, Andre's factory will be set up. We only need to help him raise these high-priced workers for another half a year, and then they will all be packed away by Andre." Zhu Chuanwen Explained a sentence, but then thought about it again:

"However, Qiao Hongguo, since the Russians intend to join the guild, the files of this guild must be set up for me. You must retain the technical backbone of the Russian workers and the capable talents. I don't care what you use. Way, these people took my money from Hanyao, they are my Hanyao's people, they have to work hard for me, they have raised high-priced workers for half a year, how can they do it without any rewards!"

Zhu Chuanwenyan's hair-plucking temper was revealed again...

"That's right, president, look, I won't let any capable worker in the factory in the overseas settlement go."

"Well, it's best to do what you want and what I want." Zhu Chuanwen raised this request again.

"Okay." Qiao Hongguo agreed with a smile. The workers have been working for so long, so they naturally know what the workers need, so there is still half a year for him to do this. Then it is a matter of grinding tofu with water, and it will come naturally. .

"Also, the factory-level trade unions in the overseas settlements should be established as soon as possible. We are about to make a big move. All the backbone labor unions cultivated in the mixed settlements over the years will go to me."

"I think so too. President, the night school backbone trained by the trade union has been paying attention to the study of Russian these years. Even if it has a place to play, it is much better than ours at the beginning." Qiao Hongguo expressed a little emotion.He came out of an ordinary worker in a flour mill, and at first he also lived in a Russian factory, because he was selected by Zhu Chuanwen because of his stumbling Russian, and only he knew how hard he had suffered all these years.

Zhu Chuanwen didn't disagree, and now is not the time to be emotional: "You are really watching this matter closely, not bad! Recently, you have been watching around the factory in the overseas Chinese residential area, don't make any trouble, in a few days, this insurance The team is about to enter the ice city with great fanfare!"

"Okay, president, then I'll go get busy." Qiao Hongguo's face was full of joy. This is really a rare compliment for his own president.

In late November, which was a big day for Zhu Chuanwen, the insurance team was completely stationed in Bingcheng.

The 12 Krupp gates were placed neatly at the entrance of the train station, and a cordon was drawn around them. The soldiers of the insurance team stood upright...

"Hey, brother, what happened to Bingcheng? Are you going to fight?" A businessman from Fengtian got off the bus at Bingcheng Station and looked at the heavily guarded Bingcheng Station and the crowd outside who were ready to go. , grabbed a middle-aged man holding a cigarette box and asked, in order to find out the news, he even bought two packs of Laobaduo cigarettes from the salesman.

This kind of work in Bingcheng has now been replaced. After Zhu Chunshan’s cleaning work in the mixed-living area was completed, all the forces that originally controlled the children who went to school to buy cigarettes and sell newspapers were wiped out. They had no father or mother, and they were recruited by Xianer, and a welfare home was opened in the family home. During the day, they were all enrolled in Hanyao’s elementary school. Those under the age of 12 were uniformly enrolled in elementary school, and those over 12 years old were enrolled in middle school. .

But now, most of the people who do this job are idlers and rascals who don't have deep sins, and they can be regarded as having a job.Those who have committed serious crimes will either enter the old golden ditch to dig for gold, and never come out again in this life.Either enter Xiaoqingshan to mine, and after a few years of transformation, there will be a chance to be a new person.

Zhu Chunshan's method of governing mixed communities with an iron fist is beginning to be proficient. For good people, the picket team is a kind uncle and uncle; for bad people, it is a pair of iron fists of justice.

The middle-aged man's mouth, which was originally silent, took the silver dollar and handed over the cigarette, and it was like a machine that could talk after it was coined. Got it, do you know that the vice president of the Bingcheng Council has been promoted to the general of the Russians, and from now on, General Zhu of Bingcheng will stand up like a hero! By the way, you are here to do legitimate business, right?"

"Ah, right! Right! General Zhu?"

"It's fine, I advise you, business in Bingcheng is easy to do, but if it's illegal, I advise you, don't touch it!" The middle-aged man said with the tone of someone who had come here.

"Don't touch, don't touch. Dare I ask my brother, is General Zhu in Bingcheng the same Zhu Tuanlian from the Black Province?"

"It's all about the vice president of the Ice City Council! I'm the one who said a few more words. I saw that this is the first time you have come to Ice City. The Tian of Bingcheng is now surnamed Zhu. It's Zhu, that's right, that's Zhu Tuanlian. His eldest son, but do you know that this General Zhu is a Russian general? In Bingcheng, this man is very good at speaking, and the Russians have to listen to him, understand?"

"Understood, understood! So what is it now?"

"The insurance team has entered the ice city! There are more than 4000 people, and they have changed defenses from the previous Russian army. Did you see the Krupp cannon! This equipment is not available in the original Russian garrison, and it can be pulled by 6 horses!"

The businessman from Fengtian was stunned. This Russian really spent all his money. In order to win over this man, all this?Fengtian's new army doesn't have this weapon, the Zhu family is amazing!
The salesman has been around the train station all year round, so the news is naturally well-informed. The businessman from Fengtian is also a quick-witted person. After passing another cigarette, the things on the streets of Bingcheng were talked about endlessly.

What kind of Japanese got his ass blown by the kid from Hanyao Middle School...

Bike racing in the family courtyard...

Some did not say a lot, and the businessmen from Fengtian were secretly speechless!I have traveled all over the world and traveled to so many places. This time I came to Heilongjiang Province. I don’t have a beard in other places. The rumored land boundaries of the three Kanto provinces that can produce various commodities are so different. They are both in Kanto. Why is this ice city like It's like a foreign country...

Amazing!

The two were chatting, and suddenly, they felt the cigarette vibrate.

With the deafening cheers of the children around "the insurance team is coming!" and the shouts of the workers...

Zhu Chuanwen rode a tall horse in front, wearing a straight insurance team uniform, wearing the same insurance team coat as Zhu Kaishan, with the rank of the chief instructor, wearing white leather gloves, holding the rein in one hand, and holding the rein in the other. Wearing a leather whip and wearing a large-brimmed hat that is only issued to the captain of the insurance team, he led more than 4000 people who walked in neat steps behind him, starting from the direction of Binjiang City, and approached the ice city along the established route. TRAIN STATION.

The waiting artillery moved quickly after seeing the approaching team.

"Salute ready!"

"Twelve doors open at once, let them go!"

Amidst the cheers of trade union organizations, amidst the waving of small colorful flags, and the deafening sound of 12 cannons.

The insurance team officially entered Ice City, and officially handed over at the Bingcheng Railway Station. The military representative from Vladivostok, Russia, the vice president of the Ice City Council and the police chief Weischenko, who had just changed in the middle of the year, all looked at him in surprise. Everything, this battle, this form, Bingcheng, this time it can be regarded as a real change of ownership...

But fortunately, Russia has tightly tied this man to the battleship. The tens of millions of Russian loan collections will be the main magic weapon for the Russians to control the ice city in the future. It will also be a new excuse for the Far East Army to send troops to the ice city again.

"General Zhu!" Zhu Chuanwen got off his horse after waiting for the 12-gun salute to be fired, and walked towards the platform built outside the train station. The military representative of Vladivostok immediately greeted him.

"General Wiscons, it's been a long time!" This person is Zhu Chuanwen's old acquaintance, who was captured by Cao Dezhong and compared Zhu Shaofang's marksmanship with the former colonel of the Military Supply Department of the Ice City Garrison. This time, after Andre was promoted , also quietly promoted to brigadier general, transferred to Vladivostok Far East Army Command Wisconsin.

"Haha, I knew that General Zhu would be a blockbuster sooner or later. Now you, like Major General Andre, are my superiors." The minister was promoted, and he has been doing military supplies these years, and he has become a lot more tactful in his dealings with others.

Of course, Hanyao took a lot of money. The price of this military ration was at the same level as in Russia, and the price of this thing could not be lowered. If it was lowered, it would affect the income of Russian generals.

"It's not comparable, it's not comparable, I am an honorary military rank." Zhu Chuanwen waved his hands with a smile.

"That's my superior too, General Zhu, shall we start then?" Wisconff asked with a subordinate attitude.

"start!"

As the Russian soldiers brought up the documents for the transfer and exchange of defense, and after Zhu Chuanwen and Wisconfu signed the exchange, it was a foregone conclusion that the insurance team would be stationed in Ice City.

"Citizens of the Ice City, the insurance team will be stationed in the Ice City. From now on, it will be the same as General Andre's presence. There will be no change. This entry ceremony is over. Let's go to our own business."

After signing the document, Zhu Chuanwen stood in front of the microphone and spoke to everyone.say what?There is nothing to say, the Russians are still there, and the ice city is still owned by the Russians in name, so it would be better not to do it!

Wisconf from Vladivostok boarded his special train and went back to report. After Zhu Chuanwen spoke a few words with the police chief of Bingcheng, he led the team towards the barracks of the garrison in the expatriate area.

The road was still full of people, and the pickets had already cleared the line.

Ordinary people in Bingcheng saw the insurance team for the first time. They all wore brand new insurance team uniforms, carried packed backpacks, carried light machine guns in their hands, heavy machine guns on their shoulders, and finally there was a police officer who was killed. 6 Krupp guns pulled by 12 horses.All of this is a swearing of the force of the insurance team, and the mortars are still in the stage of being unavailable, and they are all sealed in boxes.

It has to be said that this time, the law and order in Bingcheng will be better in the future, and Zhu Chunshan can save a lot of things.

"Boss, this time is really grand." This team is composed of elite soldiers drawn from the three columns of the insurance team. The original Lin Laoba's subordinate, Li Sixu, is the team leader. This team used to guard the gate of Zhujia Village. , Later, the man who exterminated wolves and suppressed bandits in Xiaoqingshan grew up very quickly. Generally speaking, this man's brain is very useful. Zhu Chuanwen was selected at once and served as the captain of the Bingcheng detachment.

"I want to be dignified, I want to be upright, I want to tell the Russians to take it easy in the future..." Zhu Chuanwen narrowed his eyes and said to his immediate subordinates behind.

"Understood, the teacher taught me, Maozi, it's not like I haven't met him on the grassland. If anyone dares to bark our teeth at us, we will knock out his teeth; if anyone dares to blow his hair, we will pluck his hair! The ice city is the ice city of our Zhu family!" Li Sixu said very firmly.

Just following the insurance team, this hard-fought Boxer has lived the life he is today. Now his child is studying in Hanyao Middle School, and he may be able to study abroad in the future. We must not let this beautiful thing be ruined.

Although his surname is Li, this ice city belongs to the Zhu family, which is the consensus of the ice city detachment.

"That's right, you will be useful in the future, according to the plan, start training normally from tomorrow!" Zhu Chuanwen said.
