Chapter 373 Deviating to the Tiger Mountain (seeking the moon)(1/2)
Chapter 373 Favoring the trip to Hushan (please vote for me!)
On the evening of May 15th, the fourth year of the Republic of China, near a villa originally built for external doctors in the backyard of Longhai Railway General Hospital, more than a dozen agents from the Security Department were either trapped in a corner or maintaining a presence around the villa.
Be alert, this is Li Zicheng's "special ward".
In the living room of the "ward", when Li Zicheng reached out to Liang Qichao and his hand was tightly held by the other party, a strong and sacred sense of historical mission lingered in Li Zicheng's chest. Yes, today will start a new era.
The history of this country, the history of this country, will begin today.
After the two met, Li Zicheng chatted with Liang Qichao with a smile on his face. Their chat seemed to have no purpose. It was like a chat between old friends. They chatted casually. They talked about education and industry.
Chatting about culture, in short, the two seemed to have really become old friends at this moment.
After Liang Qichao arrived in Lianyung, in the past three days, accompanied by Mu, Fan Xudong and others, he visited a motorcycle factory, a steel plant, a shipyard, a large pharmaceutical company and many other enterprises in Lianyungang.
I even took a few classes at Dehua University with great interest.
It can be said that everything in this city makes Liang Qichao feel a little excited. Even the "national character" that he has always criticized and expected to change has also changed here to a great extent. But even so
, but he did not forget the purpose of coming to Lianyun. After contacting many people at the Economic and Strategic Envoy's Office, he finally learned that Li Lianyun's new drug trial was very successful yesterday when he visited the big pharmaceutical company and that he was recovering from his injuries.
Finally, this morning, when Liang Qichao visited the Lianyun Library, he received an accurate reply from the Economic and Strategic Affairs Office. In the afternoon, Li Lianyun would meet with him in the hospital. Before meeting Liang Qichao, Li Zicheng had already met with his cronies and staff.
Negotiations were held on various issues, and effective intelligence work also allowed him to grasp Yuan Shikai's bottom line. Therefore, this meeting was actually of little significance.
However, this was an inevitable meeting, and Yuan Shikai's concession also made Li Zicheng relax. It turned out that all the worries were unnecessary. Now, for Li Zicheng, he clearly knew that one of his feet
, has already stood in front of the door of the State Council. It can be said that the door of the entire country has been opened to him.
Perhaps it was because of his many worries before that Li Zicheng was in a good mood when talking to Liang Qichao. Now, Liang Qichao came to Lianyungang as Yuan Shikai's special envoy. On the surface, it was to visit him. In fact,
But it was through Liang Qichao's mouth that he sent a signal - the State Council would not become a dummy agency, but would become a new central authority.
When Liang Qichao was talking to Li Zicheng, although the negotiation with Li Zicheng was very relaxed, and as outsiders said, talking to Li Zicheng always made people feel very relaxed, because his words were sincere and without any trace of
Sitting and working, this innocent feeling is rarely seen in many other people.
While admiring Li Zicheng's innocent feelings in his heart, Liang Qichao cast his eyes on that young and slightly pale face from time to time. As some outsiders said, his appearance is very attractive to women, even though he deliberately left
He has a mustache, but anyone can tell that he is young and has an unusual age.
And now history is really going to push Li Zicheng, a young man who is only 25 years old, into a pivotal position. This pivotal role will not only be limited to Chinese affairs, but has also greatly affected world affairs. He was captured on the Jiao'ao battlefield.
The army defeated by the Jiangsu Army was the Japanese Army and Navy, which had defeated the Russian Army and Navy. Although the war is now over, the impact of that conflict is enough to change the pattern of Asia and even the world in the next ten years.
What will be done next? This is something Li Zicheng has thought about again and again, and it is also something Liang Qichao has been thinking about. For Liang Qichao, he is full of expectations for this young man. He believes that this young man will do this after becoming the Prime Minister.
The country has brought about earth-shaking changes.
The future of the entire country will be placed in his hands, and what makes Liang Qichao feel most at ease is that Li Zicheng is different from Yuan Shikai, or in other words, they have completely different ideas. In Lianyungang, through visiting the Longhai Autonomous Association, Liang Qichao recognized
To be sure, if it was Li Zicheng who promoted "enlightened politics" back then, China's Congress would still be the Congress, and the Congress would still supervise the government. This is not because Li Zicheng can accept many things, but because in his view,
Supervision is an essential part.
For some reason, in the days before Liang Qichao's arrival, Li Zicheng suddenly thought of the past, the future, and many things. In this kind of thinking, he could feel the changes that had taken place in himself. It could be said that from seeing
From the first moment he met Liang Qichao, he was no longer an ordinary person. Thousands of national affairs would soon be on his shoulders. From now on, he would no longer have even a moment of leisure.
Moreover, in the next year, it can be said to be the most critical moment for China. If a series of domestic problems are solved, it will directly benefit China's future construction. How to solve it quickly does need to be solved next time.
Big determination. It is best to solve all problems once and for all.
But can those problems really be solved so easily? There are too many problems that need to be solved in the future, and those problems that involve all parties in the country and the powers of various countries all need to be solved and coordinated, but history has not
Give yourself too much time, only one year, those problems must be solved before Yuan Shikai dies...
At every turning moment, history has generously endowed a certain hero with a decisive and fearless soul. Those who achieve great things must have great courage. Even if they fail, they must fail earth-shatteringly. In the long history of China, those heroes
When a temporary figure dominates the destiny and history of this country, how many crises and turns will he face during this period?
History may have given Li Zicheng some inspiration, but Li Zicheng knows clearly that history should have been different, but now, in this time and space, the history of this country will be fundamentally changed due to Li Zicheng's decision.
, so he Li Zicheng exists in this time and space, and he will dominate everything in this country, dominate the development of this country, dominate the destiny of this country, so the destiny and history of this country will change.
Never keep company with cowards, change is the career of the brave... But when faced with this responsibility, when faced with taking on the responsibility of a country, who can have the courage to say that they can do better?
At that time, when Li Zicheng was smoking a cigarette and looking at Liang Qichao's wise eyes, Li Zicheng's heart seemed a little agitated. In the future, these figures in history will be "driven" by him.
Under one goal, work hard for one goal.
In this process, you must do one thing, that is, you must never accept anyone's lagging behind. Those who lag behind will be eliminated by history, and any slackness is unforgivable!
“Everything here always feels exciting,”
When mentioning the inspections in the past three days, Liang Qichao seemed very excited and kept praising,
"Those products are really good..."
At this time, Liang Qichao, who came with him, interrupted:
“Some of my friends in France told me that industrial products made in China can now be seen in many places in France. They wrote to me and told me that China’s presence has never been felt in many places like now.
, this is very important for expatriates abroad. They feel that the big difference between the Republic of China and the Manchu Qing Dynasty lies in this place..."
"Industrial product manufacturing can change a country. For a country, if there is no modern industry, then this country has no hope! It also has no future!"
Facing their praise, Li Zicheng showed no trace of humility.
"When I was negotiating with the central government to ask for the privileges of the annexed areas, many people didn't understand. Some people called me a fake foreign devil. In their eyes, I grew up drinking milk, so my heart relied on foreign devils. I wanted those privileges for
What the foreign devils want, when I build factories and develop industry on these attached lands, some foreigners think it is impossible, and even some Chinese people think it is impossible. So in the past three years, I have been working hard in Longhai.
Hard work relies on a breath of energy, a breath of energy that proves to everyone, to do these things, and now I have finally done something... Many times, when doing things, you need to show that energy, and foreigners can do it.
We can do it, you see, now, we have achieved many things, many undertakings that others have never imagined in the past, and now we are working hard to do it. Mr. Zhuoru, you have seen everything here, you
Do you think I succeeded?"
"Successful, this is a great success, an unprecedented success..."
Liang Qichao nodded and said, his words seemed a bit exaggerated and a bit excessive, but in his opinion, this was the right thing to do. Li Zicheng had indeed done something that was difficult for others to do.
"No!"
With a smile on his face, Li Zicheng shook his head and said.
"I can only say that now, we have just made a start, and we are still far away from success!"
At this time, Li Zicheng's face showed a look of concern for the country and the people.
"Personally, it may be a certain career success, but compared to the entire country, China's industrial foundation is still too weak, China is still too backward, and we can't even be considered an industrial country.
For a country, this is just the beginning!"
"Yeah, it's just the beginning. For you personally, this is a career success. For a country, this is just the beginning. That's right. If you want to be better in charge of this beginning, you have to change your position!"
Liang Qichao glanced at Li Zicheng, first expressed his agreement, and then said seriously.
"Zhiyuan, this time, I came here for one thing. President, I hope you can go to the capital after you recover from your injury..."
Then, Liang Qichao stared at Li Zicheng seriously, looking at those eyes that always seemed to be very sincere and without a trace of falsehood, he said seriously.
"Going to the capital, presiding over the State Council, and presiding over the industrial and economic construction of the whole of China, this is truly serving the country and the people. This is far more responsible for the country than living in Longhai!"
"Um……"
Facing the topic that Liang Qichao got into, Li Zicheng thought for a moment and then said,
"Indeed, the industrial development of the entire country needs to be comprehensively planned and considered from a national perspective..."
"Yes,"
Liang Qichao nodded and said,
"Zhiyuan, you are good at industry and economics. This is recognized by the whole country. Now you have a great reputation all over the world. All knowledgeable people agree that you should preside over the State Council. Moreover, this is also the issue for the President. The President has agreed to let you preside over the State Council."
You become the Prime Minister and preside over the State Council. By then, you will be responsible for the industrial construction of the whole of China!"
Liang Qichao's directness was met with Li Zicheng's silence. Noticing his silence, Liang Qichao spoke again.
"There are now ten ministries in the central government. The president believes that although China currently implements a presidential system, the State Council still needs to be in charge of five of them. When he came, the president specifically told me that if you are willing to take up the post of prime minister,
, then please prepare a list of the directors-general of the five ministries of finance, education, agriculture and forestry, industry and commerce, and internal affairs!"
"oh……"
Just like the five departments mentioned in the intelligence, Li Zicheng pondered for a moment.
"Let me think about this again..."
Perhaps he was afraid that Liang Qichao would misunderstand him, so Li Zicheng explained later.
"Mr. Zhuo Ru, you have been here in Lianyun for three days. You should have seen that all the work here is just on the right track. I have my responsibility here, so I must take it into consideration. Zhuo Ru, you know
Yes, after all, here..."
Looking at Liang Qichao, Li Zicheng said sincerely.
"Personally, it is my personal honor to be able to serve the country, but..."
But as soon as he said it, Liang Qichao suddenly felt something bad in his heart.
"In the past, I hoped to serve the country. In front of the country, individuals can sacrifice many things. Individuals serve the country wholeheartedly, and the country rewards individuals. This is worthwhile and should be done. However, you have seen that many times, some
To be continued...
