Chapter 673 Multiple choice
The court was full of trouble for the division between Nanzhili and Nan, but the initiator Chen Xie quietly left the capital. To be honest, Chen Xie didn't like everything in the capital, and there was a strong sense of old decay here.
Nanzhili is divided into two, and these are two provinces. One of the additional provinces is that there is an additional group of provincial officials and positions. The Ming Dynasty officials are fighting for these positions. As for how to divide the final division, everyone is still arguing. If anyone wants to tell the difference, it must be a public enemy. On the day of leaving the capital, Chen Xie added a message, and asked Gu Jikun to submit a memorial. Since Nanzhili needs to divide, Huguang should also be divided. A province is too large and it will be difficult to manage. Especially in the stage of implementing the new policy, efficiency needs to be improved.
OK, Nanzhili has not been separated yet, and Huguang is here again. This is Hunan and Hubei. Let’s continue to make trouble.
Chen Xie left, and the court continued to make trouble. Of course, those who stood up were all officials of low-grade ranks. The real bosses were discussing behind the scenes, and they were compromising. The only consensus was that you should not worry about the Jiangnan area.
Following Chen Xie, there was also Chen Xie's staff team. This time, they all had a lawsuit in their pockets and went south to take office. Under Chen Xie's operation, Xia Yunyi obtained the position of Huating County Magistrate to replace Yang Longyou. Xu Fuyuan was also a county magistrate, but in Suzhou Prefecture. Chen Xie also brought two documents, one was Ruan Dacheng's Jiangsu Provincial Administration and the other was Yang Longyou's Songjiang Prefecture. As for the Jiangnan Governor, which is the future candidate for Jiangsu Governor, Chen Xie has not yet decided on this, so let's talk about it. Anyway, the matter of province division is not yet determined, so let's see if there are any officials with enough weight to surrender.
When he went to Jiangnan, Chen Xie first arrived in Tianjin and attended the opening ceremony of the Tianjin-Yu Railway. In order to celebrate the opening of the railway, the railway company held a grand ceremony. The construction of railways in Liaodong and railways in Guandi are completely different. Liaodong is the territory built by Chen Xie, and it is still in a semi-military state and can be tossed around. The opening of the railways means that the imperial court has accepted such a new thing.
Although the current steam locomotives are still super ugly and have limited load, when the whistle is whistling slowly and Mercedes-Benz is running on the railway, an era is unstoppable. The benefits of this thing can be seen by anyone. Even if there are old stubborn people in the court to oppose it, it cannot change the fact that the railway exists. At that time, Chen Xie does not need to take action, and the emperor and the cabinet will have to deal with opponents. Especially Zhu Cixuan, he agreed with Chen Xie. Build a railway to connect Beijing and Tianjin, Chen Xie pays money and operates, and the court will take charge of taxes. Zhu Cixuan still has 10% of his dry shares. And this example will become a routine in the future. As long as it is a railway built by Chen Xie, Zhu Cixuan will support Zhu Cixuan wherever he wants to build, the only requirement is 10% of his dry shares. The emperors of the Zhu family are all wealth-loving people. This is an invariable nature.
The court did not object because there was taxation. The taxation of the Liaodong Railway is 200,000 silver dollars a year, once every six months, and it was never too long. Then you can build it casually, but you can't stop it anyway. For Chen Xie, the favorite harvest of the construction of the Liaodong Railway is a strong engineering team. He does not have the ability to build steel bridges, but he has mastered the technology of concrete pouring bridge piers. In this era, ordinary rivers are enough to get enough money. Don't think about the Yangtze River Bridge. Without more than a hundred years of accumulation, don't mention this matter.
Johnson Chan, the European devil, became increasingly Ming and became more and more powerful. He spoke fluent Nanjing Mandarin and looked at the train away, and excitedly said to Chen Xie: "Mr. Chen, at the latest, there is one month left, our new front of the car will be tested."
Chen Xie was very quick to these technicians. He immediately asked, "Is there any specific data?"
Johnson Chan said: "Theoretically, the power of the new motorcycle is more than twice as high as the current one, or even three times. There is still a lot of way to go to meet the requirements of adults, and the key is the accumulation of technicians."
Chen Xie nodded with satisfaction and said, "Take it slow, you are also an official of the court now. Thank you for your hard work in Liaodong. You have to participate in the design and production of motorcycles, and teach students."
"It's not hard, I'm willing to be with young people. I've lived a very happy life in the Ming Dynasty. The only regret is that I haven't been home for a long time. I heard that Germany is now in a splitting place. Although the war in Europe has stopped, Germany has become the only loser." Chau Wang sighed and said this.
Chen Xie felt nervous and said calmly: "Why, do you want to go back to Europe?" Joshua Chan shook his head: "I don't want to go back. Although the war in that place has subsided, it is still a remote place than the Ming Dynasty." Whether this is true or not, Chen Xie couldn't figure out whether this is true or not, but this old guy was a devout Christian before. He came to the Ming Dynasty to preach.
It is obvious that the missionary cause in the Ming Dynasty was quite failed. Even if Chen Xie did not restrict him, he did not see him develop a few believers. This was caused by cultural differences in living standards, especially in Liaodong, when all the people who immigrated in the past had land, it was difficult to develop Christians. The only thing that could be developed was the Koreans and Japanese who worked in factories. Why? Life is difficult and there is no hope, so faith is needed. People who have good life but no accurate demands are either Buddhists or Buddhists. Who believes in foreign religions? Chau Wang took out all his savings, built a church in Shenyang, and developed hundreds of Japanese and Korean believers.
In fact, even if he wants to leave, Chen Xie will not let him go. This guy has too many skills, so letting him go is irresponsible to the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, he will be ready to die in the Ming Dynasty in his life. To develop believers, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you don’t want to leave, and the shadow is always staring at him.
Of course, railways are a very complex system, not just a problem with train locomotives, but also covered by railway and bridge technology. The Ming Dynasty did not lack skilled craftsmen, but a complete system. Everything Chen Xie did had the strictest requirement, which was technical accumulation, and every detail must be recorded. There must never be any loss of skills when a person dies.
In history, the Qin Dynasty realized the standardized production of bronze ware. In two thousand years, how many techniques disappeared in historical occasions? Of course, there are reasons for not being valued, but the more important reason is that they are not systematic. Chen Xie started his career in Denglai and went to his pursuit of Liaodong. Twenty years later, he accumulated such a little technology, which shows how difficult it is to be the thing of industry.
Huating, when the huge warships approached the dock, the officials waiting on the dock were piled up one by one. Chen Xie had been here before, and had never seen such a big battle. As soon as he got off the boat, he saw an acquaintance coming out of the crowd. Han Zanzhou held the imperial edict and said in a sharp voice: "The emperor has an imperial edict." A loud bang, there was a large area of kneeling on the dock. Chen Xie was helplessly ready to kneel down. Han Zanzhou quickly finished the trial: "Your Majesty said, Lord Chen doesn't need to kneel down, just look at the order."
Chen Xie then reached out and took the imperial edict very rudely and looked at it. It was nothing more than the emperor who carried the emperor to the heaven. The beginning of the edict was that Nanzhili was abolished and Nanjing was retained. It was divided into Anhui and Jiangsu provinces. The specific division was as follows: the official allocation, Chen Xie, the former governor of Jiangnan, elected officials from an Jiangsu province and handed over to the Ministry of Personnel for review.
I delayed a few days in Tianjin and floated on the sea for another ten days. This was half a month, so I deducted it to make a fast horse trip of at least 7 days. In other words, after Chen Xie left the capital, the cabinet and the six ministries couldn't wait to divide it up. Well, the eating habits were not too ugly, and it could even be said to be generous. The whole Jiangsu was thrown to Chen Xie. This was not the style of those guys in the court. Chen Xie knew very well that a group of people who could find bones in eggs for the sake of profit.
He didn't care about the other people's expressions, Chen Xie pulled Han Zanzhou to the side and asked in a low voice: "Hubang is also divided?" Han Zanzhou nodded. Chen Xie realized that no wonder he was so generous. The so-called Jiangsu Province, in fact, what he could do was a provincial institution. Other prefectures are now ready-made officials, and in principle it was the work of the Ministry of Personnel.
Seeing Chen Xie thinking, Han Zanzhou said in a low voice: "Long live, I asked me to ask the cabinet department. The Minister of Personnel Li Yuzhi submitted a memorial to ask His Majesty to convene an imperial meeting on the grounds of facilitating management to discuss whether the position of governor can be customized."
Chen Xie grinned, thinking that these guys were not too ugly in appearance, but he didn't expect that there would be such a thing. What does it mean? The governor of the Ming Dynasty was a temporary position. Now these guys proposed that the governor was a permanent position, so the question arises. Mr. Chen, do you want to be the minister of the cabinet, which governor should you serve as?
Han Zanzhou indeed took out a piece of paper. Chen Xie looked at it and was quite surprised. History was indeed an astonishing coincidence. This governor was divided according to region, including the governor of Zhili, the governor of Zhili, the governor of Shandong, the governor of Liaodong, the governor of Huguang, and the governor of Liangjiang... This division had an astonishing coincidence with the governor of the Qing Dynasty. This was not surprising at all. It was normal to divide it according to region.
In this way, Chen Xie's current territory and three provinces must give up two of them, no matter how you divide it, it will be useless.
"What does Your Majesty mean?" Chen Xie asked calmly, and Han Zanzhou smiled and said, "What does Wansui Master mean is to ask what does the Lord of the Pavilion? Wansui Master also said that it will be difficult for him to do this when the Pavilion Department leaves."
Chen Xie thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty has to make his own decision on this matter. If you have to choose a governor to serve as the deputy governor, it will be the governor of Liaodong." Chen Xie gave an answer, and a surprise flashed across Han Zanzhou's face. Without saying much, he bowed and said, "I have recorded it, delayed the reception ceremony of the Pavilion Department. I am here to be compensated."
