Chapter 4 Intrigue

There were still some wine and chatting, but Zhou Xuexi kept thinking that Li Weige's thoughts had already floated outside the clouds of the sky. Even when facing the most famous Wuchang fish, he held up his chopsticks and didn't take off his chopsticks.

Li Weige seems to be a brave and knowledgeable person. The breakthrough to solve the problem of Hanchang should be here, but this involves all aspects of relationship. If you act rashly, will it cause a rebound in Hubei? It must be both positive and safe. This opportunity is a bit difficult to grasp. Zhou Xuexi hesitated for a long time but still did not think of any wonderful tricks. The scene of the emperor summoning him alone before he started to come to Hubei:

"Hanyeping Company is extremely important. Although Zhang Nanpi has taken many detours, only he has the courage and perseverance to set the stage. The reason why I am unwilling to bring up old accounts is because of his contribution."

"The emperor clearly understands." Zhou Xuexi has always admired this kind of mind and demeanor. "As far as I know, Hanyeping Company's investment is much larger than that, and there are many serious deficiencies, which are quite difficult to recover. Hubei has called several times to ask the Ministry of Industry and Commerce and the Ministry of Finance to immediately allocate funds to maintain it, otherwise it will go bankrupt. Since the confidence is insufficient, I am afraid that it will continue to operate too hard."

"Since the local government is not well managed, don't let it go, and it can be controlled directly by the court. After you go, you must figure out how much capital you need to add, how much equipment you purchase, and what improvements you need to make in production, and write it into a statement to me. But there is one thing, no matter how Hubei defends it, Han Yeping is not allowed to recruit foreign shares, nor is it allowed to sell ore to other countries. The contracts that have been sold now must be gradually reduced." Lin Guangyu said this article with a decisive and unquestionable.

Zhou Xuexi's mouth moved for a moment. He held back and didn't ask, but the question mark was obviously on his face.

Lin Guangyu smiled and explained: "Steel is the basis for the revitalization of the country's industrial. I have never heard of any country that builds its own prosperity industry on the basis of the prosperity of coal and iron in other countries. The first coal and iron in the UK was to emerge, and Germany had the Ruhr coal and iron industrial zone. The United States had the steel city and the steel king. Even in Japan and Belgium, the steel production of small countries like my country is better than that of China. Customs imports many steel products every year, and Han Yeping still wants to export ore, so he handed over the profit and power to others..."

When Zhou Xuexi thought of this earnest warning, he felt a lot of pressure on his body. After returning to the ground, he thought about it and felt that things were tricky the more he thought it was, so he was going to go to Cen Chunxuan for advice overnight.

But when he saw Cen Chunxuan, the other party laughed: "Jiezhi, you are here just in time. If you don't come, I will also call you."

While saying that, he pointed to a kneeling person on the ground and told him: "Here. This person claims to know the inside story of Hanyang Iron Factory, so he came to report it."

"Oh?" Zhou Xuexi looked at the man on the ground carefully. He was not Li Weige, and then he was a little curious. He asked, "Who are you?"

The man looked flattering and kowtowed respectfully and said, "The villain is the subordinate of Lord Chen."

"Who is Mr. Chen?" Zhou Xuexi was surprised. Chen Kuilong just wanted to report the matter, so how could he be so grand?

"The Iron Factory will organize Chen Nianrong."

"Chen Nianrong?" Zhou Xuexi said in confusion while muttering the name, "Why am I a little familiar with this name?"

"Jizhi, he is Zhang Nanpi's son-in-law." Cen Chunxuan remembered this and was reminded.

"So that's it." Zhou Xuexi asked coldly, "What are you doing when you walk here at night?"

"The villain is here to report Li Weige, the general manager of Hanyang Iron Factory..."

"Ah?" Zhou Xuexi was shocked, his eyes were full of doubts, and he asked hurriedly, "What are his bad deeds?"

Although Cen Chunxuan was not sure about the situation between the two, seeing how Zhou Xuexi reacted so much, he suddenly became excited and said steadily, "You can tell me the same thing to me.

"The first is to be disrespectful to elders and neglect the imperial envoy. Li Weige was proud of his Westernization work for several years and had a high opinion of himself and did not take others seriously. After Lord Chen took over as the governor of Hubei, he repeatedly asked him to reduce his scale and reduce his losses due to poor management of the iron plant. He just refused to listen and used various methods and words to make excuses. The imperial envoy came to inspect. He was originally aware of the information and deliberately avoided his escape. But now he didn't know what to do if he had no ghost in his heart?

Article 2: Collusion with treacherous parties and acted rampantly. Li Weige was originally a confidant of Sheng Ni Xuanhuai, and always followed the orders of Sheng Thief and often praised him. After the court investigated and dealt with the thief, he not only refused to support him, but instead complained, saying, "The court is doing a fight again, and Zheng Guan should betray the master." He held grudges in his heart, which shows that he had deep resentment.

Article 3: Advocate foreign countries and favor foreigners and enrich their private pockets. The construction of Hanyang Iron Factory was originally built for a complete national manufacturing and replaced imports, but Li Weige has always ignored it. He must tell the foreigners about what happened to production. The iron factory is good for steel, and all parties praised it. He still had to travel thousands of miles to invite the British Appraisal Bureau to review it. The degree of flattery is outrageous. The last time he went to Japan to inspect, he went to Europe to purchase equipment, and he embezzled a lot of equipment funds, and he wasted countless money.

Article 4: Being ignorant and cheating. Li Weige was originally a translator, not a major in engineering, nor was he a steel technician. However, he used this general knowledge to show off the words in foreign books. Today is called the construction of a laboratory, tomorrow is called geological survey, the construction of the next day is about the rectification of the building, and the composition of the iron in the next day is about the traits. He deceived a large number of people.

Article 5: It is said that business operations are turned into private. The Hanyang factory was built by Zhang Wengong using millions of silver and money from the two lakes, and spent 20 years of hard work. How difficult is it to start a business? But Li Weige always disagrees, either he or she would talk about the official business problems, and the word "commercial business" is on his mouth all day long. After the joint venture of Hanyeping Company, it was claimed to be commercial business, but the actual capital was less than 200 yuan. He said that business operations were actually wanted to do private business.

Article 6: To monopolize power and be stubborn. There is no setback in the operation of the iron plant. He must say that the personnel power he sponsored was scattered and could not be used, and asked to monopolize the power. Lord Chen was slightly restrained and advised him with kind words. He was often angry and spoke fiercely. In the past, Duke Zhang Wengong had a lot of inquiries because of the poor management of the iron plant. As a result, Li Weige gave up the lead and avoided other places to demonstrate.

The thief could not withstand his clever tongue, so he brought him back."

There are no more or less. There are exactly six things. And they talk endlessly without any stagnation. When it comes to anger, they are quite excited. Zhou Xuexi feels more and more shocked the more he hears it. Is this Li Weige a human or a ghost? He is already a little confused.

Cen Chunxuan remained silent: "I have known what you said, and I can investigate it. You should step down, so don't talk about it anymore."

"Yes." The man then changed into a smile, "Two lords. Just now, the villain's words can only be heard by the adults, and I dare not let Li Weige know."

"I know, I know." Cen Chun waved his hand impatiently, "Don't go out and chew around."

"I don't dare to borrow the courage of a villain!" Looking at the back of the visitor disappearing in the darkness, Zhou Xuexi felt a mess lingering in his heart, and he couldn't make any sense. Listening to Zhou Xuexi talking about Li Weige's request for a meeting, Cen Chunxuan's brows became deeper and deeper. The pool of water seemed to be a little unfathomable.

"Mr. Cen, Xuexi always feels that someone is tinkering with conspiracies and trying to achieve the unspeakable goal."

"I also have some doubts. I haven't met Livige and can't draw conclusions. But at least there are many doubts in front of me."

"How?" Zhou Xuexi didn't see the flaws and asked quickly.



"He's words..."

"Word?" Zhou Xuexi thought for a long time, but still couldn't grasp the clues and said in embarrassment, "I really can't see it. His words sounded like every sentence is reasonable, but it may not be true or false. But why do you know it is a lie?"

"I didn't say it was a lie, I just said it was suspicious. Mechanism," Cen Chunxuan patted Zhou Xuexi on the shoulder, "You think it's only been a day or two for us to come here. How could he be so clear about it? One of this suspicious points; Li Weige's many crimes, no matter whether it is true or false, but this person actually said it so smoothly, which shows that he had planned it for a long time. This suspicious point is the second; this person named Chen Nianrong, but Chen Nianrong had met several times with me, and was not unfamiliar, so why didn't he come in person? This suspicious point is the third."

Zhou Xuexi was convinced: "Listen to the adults' words, Xuexi suddenly felt like he was enlightened. Since this is the case, would Chen Nianrong be summoned to question him? Isn't the truth revealed?"

"No." Cen Chun waved his hands repeatedly, "If you do this, you will be the plan of a villain."

"Why is this?"

"You think that even if this person dares to name Chen Nianrong, even if he is not a close friend, he is a familiar person. If we call Chen Nianrong to come, we will definitely not escape his surveillance. He went out and said, "Chen Hui Office impeached General Li, and is now being questioned by the imperial envoy. Isn't the Han Factory a chaotic situation? In addition, I was thinking about the words just now, and I always felt that there were a few words that should be Chen Nianrong. If he admitted when he came to question him, what would you do? Who is making a sophistry?"

"So that's it, I understand."

"Just, although you have outstanding abilities, you have too little time to struggle in the officialdom. With the care of your father in the past, the traitor may not dare to attack you, so you are not wary of people's sinister hearts. I was originally as straightforward as you, and I have suffered several losses over the years, which can be considered an enlightenment. I always think about things and problems. "Cen Chun is not a few years older than Zhou Xuexi, but he relies entirely on personal struggles and climbed up step by step from the bottom. It is extremely difficult and has a deep feeling about the world. Zhou Xuexi is already a leader, but there is still some distance between him and Cen Chunxuan.

"Collection, I will tell you a word. The most difficult thing in this world to be wary of is not the truth or the lies. The truth is the fact, and the place is useless. It is better to face it in a real way. Lies are easy to expose, and there are always clues, so it is relatively simple to be wary of. Only those half-truth and half-false words that are adulterated among the truth are the most difficult to be wary of, and they will accidentally touch it.

The night is always a natural cover for conspiracy.

A secret place in Wuchang City just now appeared to Cen Chunxuan and Zhou Xuexi and Gaomi, and reported to one person respectfully: "Sir, I have done what you told me, but these two people are very cunning and did not express their opinions easily."

"Of course not. How can first-rank officials be so frivolous? What's wrong with their faces?"

"Cen Chunxuan is fine, Zhou Xuexi's face is unstable, as if he has some major concerns."

"As expected, Zhou Xuexi suddenly reached a high position, but in fact he was not strong enough."

"Sir, I have a question. I don't know if I should say it?"

"After saying that."

"If Chen Nianrong and Li Weige confront each other, wouldn't we..."

"Hahaha! No, then our plan will be halfway. Besides, we were going to make the two of us suspicious of each other and lose peace. If we confront each other, we may never reach an agreement in this life."

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, and then changed into a signature flattery: "Sir, be awesome, be awesome!"

Almost at the same time, another plot was carried out in another hidden place.

"Comrades, I just received the news that the Qing court sent a large number of officials to Wuchang to investigate. In order to show us that we resist the Qing rule and awaken the awakened will of the nation, we plan to hold a major action."

"What action?" Although the voice tried hard to keep calm, it was still very nervous.

"Military!" said the chief in an unquestionable tone, "The imperial envoy came and was said to be responsible for investigating the infiltration of the revolutionary party in the Hubei New Army. Instead of surrendering, it is better to defeat the death."

"real?"

"Really, you see, even the Imperial Guards went south, which means that the Qing court has made preparations for the purge."

"What should we do?"
