Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

Chapter 82 Zhengyangmen Station

On September 1905, 9, Zhu Chuanwen was finally able to leave and return to Bingcheng. He stayed in the capital for four months, which he had never thought of before he came.

Recently, people in the capital are a little impetuous. Zhu Chuanwen still plans to return to Bingcheng as soon as possible. There, his father Zhu Kaishan and his brothers are in Yaozi Mountain. With Andre, the garrison commander of Bingcheng, as the backer, he still feels safer .

In this era, what Zhu Chuanwen lacks most is a sense of security.

Xian'er's luck secret method is well learned, and now that he has mastered it, Zhu Kaishan's foundation in Baguazhang is really solid.

Before leaving, Zhu Chuanwen did not expect that Gong Ruomei would stage a scene where the sisters were separated, holding Xian'er but not letting go, asking Xian'er to persuade her, and after agreeing to exchange letters, she let go of her hold on Xian'er The hand of the clothes, two red eyes, stared at Zhu Chuanwen with hatred, as if Zhu Chuanwen had snatched away her beloved sister Xian'er.

If Zhu Chuanwen knew what Gong Ruomei was thinking at this time, he might really say: "Little girl, do you understand what is first come first come first?"

Let's talk about the revolver I bought, the hearts of Americans are really dark. Zhu Chuanwen asked for 3 taels of silver for the three revolvers. With the support of Zhu Chuanwen's broken English, the American firm agreed to provide 120 rounds of bullets for each, which was regarded as a gift.

Three guns, Zhu Chuanwen two, Zhu Chuanwen carried with him.One was left to Zhu Chuanwu. Every school holiday, Zhu Chuanwen would take Chuanwu to the suburbs to practice guns. This was the only fun for the two brothers in the capital.Chuanwu is the same as Xian'er, maybe people who practice martial arts are quick to get started with this kind of thing, and within a few times, they are on the same level as Zhu Chuanwen.

The matter of Tianjin Pancreas Manufacturing Company has also been decided, 2 taels of silver, accounting for one-fifteenth of the shares, and this part of the income will be kept in the account. For the increase in investment, there will be a letter to inform Zhu Chuanwen of Bingcheng that he has also entrusted Li Cunyi to watch over the pancreas manufacturing company, telling them that Zhu Chuanwen has a foothold in Tianjin.

Talk about why people in the capital are impetuous. In September, Tsarist Russia was forced to sign the "Portsmouth Peace Treaty" with Japan.

Generally, there are 5 items:
1. Tsarist Russia agrees to cede the southern part of Sakhalin Island to Japan;
2. Tsarist Russia recognizes that Korea belongs to Japan's sphere of influence;
3. Tsarist Russia agreed to cede Kantung Prefecture to Japan. Kantung Prefecture refers to the leased land of 3200 square kilometers in Lushun and Dalian, which was leased out when the Qing government and Tsarist Russia signed the "Luda ​​Land Lease Treaty";

4. The Middle East Railway is bounded by Changchun and transferred to Japan as a whole in the south, including all the interests of the Russians such as the minerals along the line;
5. Both Japan and Russia agree that, except for the Kanto Prefecture and the Middle Eastern Railway, the sovereignty and governance of Manchuria should be returned to China within one year.

Seeing the treaty in the newspaper, although Zhu Chuanwen generally knew that it was a shopping mall between two robbers, it was the fact that the Qing was divided.I can’t help but miss future generations: “China cannot lose every inch of land, just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem!” I really want to say this.

The times are different, which only increases troubles.At this time, Japan, as the victorious country, actually pinched its nose and agreed to the treaty.The British father behind them is unwilling to see the rise of Japan in the Far East, and the American younger brother in the United Kingdom, seeing that his elder brother is unhappy, jumps out and threatens his younger brother with his big stick, and Japan dare not disobey.

For this reason, the dwarf still made a fuss in the country. Under the propaganda of the Black Dragon Association, 3 Tokyo citizens gathered in Hibiya Park, demanding the abolition of the peace treaty and continuing to fight against Russia.The demands were not met. After the rally, fanatical Tokyo citizens smashed the newspaper office of the "National Shimbun" and set fire to the residence of the Minister of Internal Affairs and many police stations.used to express dissatisfaction.

Because they feel that they are a victorious country and should gain more benefits, at least to drive Russia out of the Far East.

Speaking of the capital, at this time the political center of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing court was shocked by the signing of the "Portsmouth Peace Treaty".The Qing court also did something to declare war on the Eight Kingdoms back then, but I won’t say much about the result.

But now, after the First Sino-Japanese War, the white-eyed wolf he once raised has actually won against Tsarist Russia again.This made everyone reflect on themselves, why?
Many people believe that the weak Japan was able to defeat the mighty Russia and enter the ranks of world powers because of the adoption of a constitutional monarchy.The call for constitutionalism also gradually sounded in the court and opposition parties of the Qing court.

Under the joint letter of celebrities and court officials, the event of five ministers going abroad was facilitated.

The construction of Zhengyangmen East Station was also completed under the continuous urging of the court.

Zhu Chuanwen and Xian'er's train also departed from Zhengyangmen Station.

"Brother Chuanwen, why is the train station so busy today?" Xian'er and Zhu Chuanwen each carried a box, Xian'er's was slightly lighter from a gift from Gong Ruomei, and Zhu Chuanwen's was slightly heavier, containing their clothes and bullets. In fact, most of them have been left to Chuanwu.

"There must be someone important." Zhu Chuanwen also stood on tiptoe and glanced inside.

Qing soldiers in brave uniforms stood on the outermost side, and behind them were guards in black satin and red feathers.

Zhu Chuanwen took out his pocket watch and checked the time. It was also a product of a foreign company in the United States. It was eight o'clock sharp. If he didn't make it to the station, he would miss his train.

Just as Zhu Chuanwen and Xian'er entered the station, they were stopped by guards with knives.

"What?"

"Get in!" Zhu Chuanwen took out his ticket and said, shaking it in front of the guard's eyes.

"You can't enter now, your car is delayed, wait outside first!" The guard said and waved his hand, telling them to back off.

The train was delayed, and Zhu Chuanwen didn't bother to say anything, so he took Xian'er to Qianmen Street opposite the station, where there was a teahouse where he could rest.

After entering the teahouse, I heard the storyteller keeping up with the trend of current events and talking about what is happening now.

"The mouth of the storyteller, the legs of the opera, everyone, walking around the stage of the opera is like walking thousands of miles, and I am a storyteller, spring and winter come, and this year has passed. Now, the Empress Dowager Lafayette conforms to the will of the people and is determined to reform, our Qing Dynasty must be on par with foreigners, surpass Japan in three years, surpass Britain and the United States in five years, and our Qing Dynasty will also stand on the top of the East!"

"it is good!"

There was constant applause at the bottom, and the storyteller went on to say that the five ministers went abroad, from Zhen Guogong Zaize to the Minister of the Ministry of War Xu Shichang, the life experiences of the five people were checked one by one.

Zhu Chuanwen also listened with great interest, and suddenly there was a loud bang, which startled everyone in the teahouse.

"It exploded!" After leaving the door, I saw someone running and screaming at the Zhengyangmen Station in the distance.
