Chapter 149 The economic development boom in Lugang Town
Edward Shawan also spoke in the newspaper: Zhao and I went to the Mogao Grottoes together. Zhao left a large sum of silver coins to Taoist Wang, but wiped out the cultural relics here. This cultural treasure should belong to the world.
As a friend, he is very loyal, but in this regard, he is very selfish...
To be able to say that this kind of looting of cultural relics is so righteous is a blessing that Zhao Chuanxin didn't see it. If he saw it, the next day we would see him again would be the day when he, Edward Chavan, died!
Zhao Erxun: Without a court and lawless eyes, this person has already looked like a lunatic...
People in some areas of the south: Zhao Chuanxin is our benefactor. During the great turmoil, he saved thousands of people by himself, and he collapsed from exhaustion...
People in Lugang Town: During the Russo-Japanese War, Zhao Chuanxin distributed money and food to the refugees from Liaoning, helping us tide over the difficulties. The imperial court counted more than 10,000 casualties in China, and he rescued another 10,000 people...
…
After that, reporters and various forces continued to pour into Lugang Town.
They saw a very beautiful small town built in Northeast China, and saw the local people living and working in peace and contentment. At the same time, they discovered that the weapons here were well-equipped, and the insurance team randomly pulled out a soldier to beat the Qing court!
Zhao Zhongyi was worried: "It's so troublesome to pass on the salary. Why did you go abroad? Now it's better. You're not familiar with the place and you've gotten into such a big trouble. How can you come back? Also,
Our Lugang Town is now being watched by various forces, and there are so many reporters..."
Liu Baoguo interrupted him: "What are you afraid of? This is a good thing. My grocery store has made more than three times the usual money these days. It would be great if we could bring in more talents. Dongzi's hotel is full every day."
Zhao Zhongyi was startled. It seemed that the arrival of these people was a good thing for the economic development of Lugang Town.
Even his tailor shop’s business is better now than before.
In the past, the biggest order was from the insurance team, and Zhao Chuanxin paid for them to change their clothes.
Nowadays, many outsiders see their clothes, especially Western-style clothes, which are specially tailored to meet the physical characteristics of Asians and are comfortable and stylish. As long as they are not short of money, they want to take one away with them.
Dress more energetically!
These outsiders never imagined that such good things could be bought in a remote town in the Northeast.
Zhao Zhongyi still asked cautiously: "What did Li Guangzong say? That boy is very clever."
Liu Guoguo was quite unconvinced: "My brain is also very good, and I can read now. What else can he say? He feels like a lunatic that he has done a great job..."
The insurance team and the police were completely busy.
The insurance team is now intensifying patrols, especially at the checkpoints entering Lugang Town. People coming in must be searched for weapons before they are released.
A group of people wearing Qing official uniforms came to Lugang Town.
The leading official was riding on a horse and said arrogantly: "I am sent by Governor Yuan Shikai and want to enter Lugang Town!"
Shuangxi was on duty today, and he vomited out the melon seed rinds: "You can enter the town, but first hand over your weapons."
"Presumptuous! Don't you understand? I was sent by Governor Yuan."
"Even if Cixi comes, she still has to hand over her weapons before she can enter!"
"Presumptuous!"
Shuangxi's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly raised the gun and pointed it at the official.
"Drafted, what are you clamoring for when you come to Lugang Town? If you have the guts, why don't you force your way in?"
Hearing people talk about how Zhao Chuanxin was killing people outside every day made Shuangxi feel angry at home. He also wanted to go out and roam.
It just so happens that this person doesn't open his eyes and is pretending to be a big-tailed wolf here, so let's take it out on him.
He wants the other party to shoot, so let's see who moves faster.
In the entire insurance team, he is the one who is least afraid of death and the most stunned. Wouldn’t it be great for a man to be shrouded in horse leather?
Governor Yuan Shikai, do you know who you are?
The official has come a long way and cannot leave in despair.
I have always heard that the insurance team in Lugang Town is the best among the best, and many newspapers have written about it.
He really didn't dare to confront these people.
Originally, I relied on my identity to figure things out, but now it seems that my identity has no effect at all in front of these unscrupulous people.
Especially when you see these people wearing uniform uniforms, uniform rifles, uniform pistols, uniform axes, uniform bayonets, uniform uniform horses...
Just looking at it brings a sense of evil to my face.
He didn't dare to take Qiao anymore, and waved his hand to ask his subordinates to hand over their weapons.
This person was sent by Yuan Shikai to "recruit peace".
When Zhao Zhongyi and Liu Baobao heard that they were here to recruit people, they immediately lost their minds.
They went to find Li Guangzong and talked about the matter.
Li Guangzong, who had known the future trend for a long time, naturally knew what Yuan Shikai represented.
He said: "My husband and I have discussed this matter a long time ago. We definitely cannot be incorporated into the six towns of Beiyang by Yuan Shikai. The separate insurance team is no longer an insurance team and has no advantages at all. If it is given to the official, we will be. China has
If a foreign enemy invades, we will fight. But we will not mobilize external forces. Yuan Shikai has troops and they will become bigger in the next few years. We don’t have to quarrel with him. If they don’t agree, tell them that we are not a threat to the country and are just armed locals to protect themselves.
, never go out of other provinces..."
Seeing that what he said was clear and logical, the two of them finally calmed down. Liu Baogui said: "There were Japanese people who came here before, and they talked about prospecting and surveying the forest, and how to deal with it?"
Li Guangzong narrowed his eyes: "Ever since the Yankees mediated between Japan and Russia, the Japanese colonial authorities declared Dalian Port a free port with no tariffs, in order to make Dalian Port an import and export port and to lay out Hokkaido railway transportation for them.
The sleepers and timber are naturally transported from the three eastern provinces. But my husband said that forests are important natural resources in our country and must not be leaked. They cannot be controlled by other places. Lugang Town is a hundred miles away and they will never be allowed to go up the mountain to cut trees..."
The two were shocked.
Li Guangzong, a boy who is usually very quiet, has so much money hidden in his belly? It seems that he has a better grasp of the current situation than those officials of the Qing court.
This time Liu Guigui couldn't accept it anymore. His head was indeed better than his own.
Zhao Zhongyi pondered: "What if they have to come?"
Li Guangzong sneered: "Raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a while, spending every last soldier, just to let little Japan know that our Lugang Town is not easy to mess with. Sir, this is called personality. Once we have a strong personality
, no one will dare to take our ideas from now on..."
Liu Guogui was a little anxious: "They have cannons, what if they fire?"
"Fighting guerrillas! The teacher said that Lugang Town or the people must not be manipulated by Japan. Just like what the teacher said in the newspaper, kill one of me and I will kill ten of you. If they dare to use violence, we will
Guerrilla fighting makes them restless! Lugang Town is destroyed, we have money, so we can rebuild it! Lugang Town is completely dead, we will transfer people from refugees from other places, as long as we have money, we can still rebuild it!"
These words made the two of them gasp.
Cold, bloody, without a trace of human fireworks.
