There are two things that need Li Hongzhang's help, both of which are not going well, the matter of the shipyard is directly rejected by Li Hongzhang, Xuan Yuemeng knows that if he wants to do it, he must spend his own money, and when the time comes, he will directly face the competition of foreigners, if it is fair competition, not to mention, now it is Britain and France monopolizing maritime transportation, and the rights and interests of Britain and France will inevitably be touched at that time, and Germany will not be a backer for itself.Then there is the matter of sending international students to stay abroad, although Li Hongzhang agreed, but if the number of people is limited and does not meet the requirements of Xuan Yuemeng's heart, it will be meaningless.The success rate of talents, at least ten to one, Xuan Yuemeng thought, in the future, in education, medical care, industry, these aspects need talents, especially in industry, need a hundred talents, you have to be ready to send out a thousand people and, the time to send out must be long enough for these international students to complete high school and college first, and then go to all walks of life he needs to study small and medium-sized enterprises, large, such as machinery manufacturing, ships, these enterprises related to the national defense industry, there is no ten years of effort, In history, this group of international students really only sent 30 people, but among these 30 people, there were several famous people Zhan Tianyou, who was one of the leaders and directly laid the foundation for China's railway technology.With China's current industrial level, which is almost zero, there is no second way to go except to send students to developed countries.Suddenly, an Englishman's ironclad freighter came head-on with black smoke, and the speed was five times that of the official ship of the Qing Dynasty.Li Hongzhang rarely lost his temper in front of Young Master Meng, spit resentfully, gritted his teeth at Yue Meng beside him, and said: "Sooner or later, one day, our Great Qing Kingdom can also build an ironclad ship like this" The British wheel flew by, leaving a long row of black smoke in the sky above the two of them.Xuan Yuemeng's gaze was resolute, "Lord Zhongtang, I just hope that our country can be rich and strong, and we can no longer be bullied by foreign devils, I don't ask for anything, even if I go bankrupt, I am willing." ”Li Hongzhang looked at Xuan Yuemeng in surprise and nodded, "You are a good boy, so young, you know that you are thinking about the world, but this is also what the ministry is worried about, your little mind, why is it so big" Xuan Yuemeng was shocked and speechless, and smiled slightly: "I'm just angry, why can foreigners run to our territory to claim hegemony and take it by force, let's even do some business in our own territory, and we have to consider foreigners first" Li Hongzhang looked behind him, Timothy Lee on the opposite mast, "There are also good foreigners, Not all foreigners are unreasonable, your partner is not bad, in the final analysis, we are not good. ”Young Master Meng smiled and came to Li Hongzhang's hand, "Master Li Zhongtang, I invite you to watch the performance." ”Li Hongzhang looked at it, it had already opened to the sea, and said with a smile: "There is also a performance, don't let people go out again, do you want to go to sea" Young Master Meng smiled: "If you don't open out, you will stop driving here, come on, singing and dancing" entered the luxurious cockpit, Li Hongzhang understood for the first time what luxury is, here is even more luxurious and exquisite than the emperor's Jinluan Palace, the ground is covered with a blanket made of leopard skin, and the walls are all made of silver.The seats are all mahogany sofas Li Hongzhang sat down and picked up a tea bowl, "This is the official kiln of the Ming Dynasty, Yue Meng, are these counted within the 200,000 you told me" Young Master Meng smiled: "So, you just don't like to spend money, you have to spend money when you make money, I have never had the habit of saving money." ”Xuan Yuemeng said this, but it made Li Hongzhang's fear of Xuan Yuemeng a lot smaller, three years old to see small, seven years old to see old, if Xuan Yuemeng is not saving, not planned personality, Li Hongzhang likes it, can earn and spend, at most in the future is a capable young master.Li Hongzhang said with a smile: "Your tea set, turn around, and give a copy to the headquarters." ”Xuan Yuemeng smiled: "As long as it is liked by Lord Zhongtang, no matter what it is, just take it" Xuan Yuemeng looked at Li Hongzhang with a smile, Li Hongzhang also smiled, "Okay, you have this heart, and it is not in vain that the headquarters hurts you, and I leak the bottom with you, you must have no way to know about this, because this is the matter of the center, Lord Li Hongzao begged for your origin in front of the Queen Mother" Xuan Yuemeng was overjoyed, "I really want to carry the flag for my whole family" Young Master Meng's happy look made Li Hongzhang a little jealous, Li Hongzhang knew, People like Xuan Yuemeng, whoever gives more benefits will lean on whom, this is really similar to him.It's just that Li Hongzhang is leaning on the biggest backer of this era, and no one will ever surpass such a backer.At least, Li Hongzhang sees the Empress Dowager Cixi this way, Cixi has a deep trust in Li Hongzhang, Li Hongzhang to Cixi, how can it be otherwise, the politics of the late Qing Dynasty have always been able to maintain stability, and there is a great reason for the mutual trust relationship between Li Hongzhang and Cixi.In other words, it is not completely trusted, it's just that both people trust each other's abilities, and Li Hongzhang is indeed loyal.During the time when Xuan Yuemeng came, he had heard a lot about the eight-banner system of this era, and the Chinese had servility in their bones, which was reflected in the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, which was the most specific, and only how many people from foreign races could rule such a large country.There is no side, just rely on the bloodline to rule, the more noble the bloodline, the more you don't have to do anything, you can hold the power steadily, if you can really raise the flag, it will clear a lot of obstacles for his future road Li Hongzhang smiled and nodded, "It's true, I didn't dare to give it to you, because, there is no accuracy." ”Xuan Yuemeng was slightly disappointed.Li Hongzhang saw Xuan Yuemeng's appearance, and said with a smile: "It's so easy for you to carry the flag, the main hall, and Zeng Zhongtang, they are already the top in Hanchen, why didn't they raise the flag This is an honor, where is it so easy Fortunately, you are a child, and you have made great contributions, so you have this kind of opportunity." ”Xuan Yuemeng nodded, "It's a pity, if I raise the flag, I should have additional preferential treatment if I rely on lifting people, and I don't need the help of Lord Zhongtang." ”Li Hongzhang heard Xuan Yuemeng mention the matter of the imperial examination, "You didn't pass it to others, and you can't say it to anyone." ”Xuan Yuemeng smiled: "Of course I know, I just can't forget the kindness of Lord Zhongtang." ”Li Hongzhang held Xuan Yuemeng's little chubby paws, "You don't need to remember this all the time." ”The song and dance came up, so that Li Hongzhang just drank a sip of tea in his mouth, and almost didn't squirt out.More than forty beautiful women, half Chinese and half Chinese, all dressed in very revealing services, danced and entered.Not to mention Li Hongzhang, even Zhao Qingluo was too shy to look at it, those women, all young and beautiful, only covered the most important three points.Li Hongzhang and Xuan Yuemeng sat on the top, Zhao Qingluo and Timothy Li were on both sides, and Timothy Li watched with relish.Li Hongzhang: "Yue Meng, at a young age, how did you learn this" Xuan Yuemeng smiled slightly: "Lord Zhongtang wronged me, this is specially let Lord Zhongtang see it first, but I have never performed it, these beauties are invited from all over the place in order to put them in the Klinsmann Hotel to perform, if Lord Zhongtang likes it, if you want a few, you can choose it first, regardless of Chinese and foreign." ”Li Hongzhang chuckled, and immediately regained his composure, "You really think about it, what kind of person are you in the main department, why don't you get one for your grandfather" Xuan Yuemeng made a bitter face, "My grandfather's body is above Lord Zhongtang, and I didn't let Lord Zhongtang take it home, if Lord Zhongtang likes it, I will immediately let people in Baoding and arrange a house for Lord Zhongtang, so that Lord Zhongtang can relax for a while all the time." ”Li Hongzhang scolded with a smile: "You are really a villain, you know everything, you don't need to be so kind, you don't need it." ”t1706231537:
