Chapter 1212: The Dog That Bereaved

Chapter 1212 The Lost Dog (Second Update, please subscribe)
Dade Tong Bank is the largest bank in the north and also the first bank opened by Shanxi merchants.

Who was the hardest hit by the demise of the Manchu Qing Dynasty?
I am afraid that Shanxi merchants were hit the hardest. With the demise of the Qing Dynasty, they not only lost their business privileges in Mongolia, but also the escape of the princes and princes Baylors caused them heavy losses - those princes and princes Baylors did not owe them anything Hundreds of thousands or even millions of taels of silver, the prince Baylor in Mengdi owed even more.

And now?

This account has become a line of unpaid accounts, everyone has run away, the country is dead, who can I ask for?What's more terrible?Of course, they lost their backing in the court, and I don't know how many Shanxi merchants' tea shops and ticket offices went bankrupt overnight.

When dynasties change, of course there are those who destroy their families and families, and of course those who prosper along with them.And Dade Tong Qiao’s family is undoubtedly the latter—relying on the advantage of being the first to open a bank in the north, the current Dade Tong Bank has become the most well-known private bank in Pingjin. The reason is that the Qiao family went to Daming for inspection As a result, even his bank was hired by Qiao Zhiyong from Daming with a high salary.

For Li Youan, the reason why he resigned and returned to Huaxia back then was not because of the 10% stake in the bank, but because of what Qiao Zhiyong said - to start a career.

In the past few years, under his painstaking management, the capital of Dade Tong Bank has exceeded [-] million yuan. Recently, he has been thinking about getting involved in the insurance industry.

"Isn't that the carriage of the consulate? The weather has been hot recently, and I thought they would move out of the city to escape the heat as usual."

"If it's really a summer vacation, I'll go to Beidai..."

Looking towards the window, Li You'an saw a royal blue BMW not far away.

Qiao Jingyan, who was sitting next to him at the moment, said casually:
"Recently, I'm afraid that the consulate will not be able to easily go up and down. I heard people say that the archaeological experts sent by the Imperial Historical Society intend to conduct archaeological research on Dongling. If the news spreads, the consulate will not be able to relax."

"Archaeology? This... Who did you hear from?"

Looking back, Li Youan looked at Mr. Qiao in astonishment and asked.

"It is said that?"

Qiao Jingyan narrowed his eyes and said.

"When I was studying in Yingtian, I heard people say that based on the needs of archaeology, some people suggested that Dongling should be excavated. No one will do it. How shameless this person is to come up with such an idea, but...I didn't expect that it was just a joke at first, but now it has become a reality. This is really surprising. You said, If it wasn't for the Dongling archaeology, why send an archaeological team here?"

Qiao Jingyan's speculation is absolutely justified.

"Manager Li, tell me, this Xuzhou is doing everything to please Daming! Digging people's ancestral graves..."

"Can't you dig it?"

Before he could finish speaking, Li Youan interrupted directly.

Then he lit a cigarette, looked at the cars driving away, and said coldly.

"As far as the crimes they committed, let alone for archaeology, they are for revenge. It's no harm to dig them up, but... I'm quite curious. If those who fled to Mumbai know that their ancestral graves have been dug, What would be the reaction."

What will be the reaction?
It's nothing more than crying and scolding, will it affect the overall situation?

Has no effect.

"However, we also need to consider external influences, so according to the plan? The entire archaeological process will last for more than a year. We will first conduct archaeological exploration on the surface of the East and West Mausoleums, and then go deep into the underground palace..."

After pondering for a moment, Sun Kuiyuan said.

"Well, it should be called protective excavation. After all, the Eastern and Western Mausoleums have suffered serious damage in the past few years. We think it is necessary to carry out protective archaeology. Of course, the archaeology must not start from there. We will Start in a certain area first..."

The reason is of course sufficient, and even in order to implement this plan, in the coming year, the East and West Mausoleum will be designated as a military restricted area.

In a word, Xuzhou is fully cooperating. Sometimes some things are not transferred by personal will. At least, for Xuzhou's monarchs and ministers, they need the support from the empire more than the dead.

Besides, archaeology is also a science.

Soon, the Chinese joint archaeological team near Peiping reported good news—during the archaeological investigation around Peiping, ancient human fossils were discovered in the natural limestone caves of Zhoukoudian. This news immediately shocked the archaeological world, so It seems that in order to further research the origin of the Chinese people, the archaeological area was further expanded, and the area was designated as a military restricted zone to facilitate archaeological excavations.

Of course, what about the archaeological excavations?
I'm afraid only God knows.

But what is certain is that in the following days, a large number of archaeological results were transported to Xuzhou by train.

And about all this, outsiders know almost nothing, even those laborers live in the restricted area for a long time and are not allowed to go out.

……

However, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. After several months of archaeology, the news still spread, and the public opinion was in an uproar for a while, but it was just an uproar, for the sake of science!Sacrifice is inevitable.

Even if some courtiers cried and said that digging people's ancestral graves was really inhumane, everyone knew that there was not only the shadow of Ming Dynasty behind this matter, but also the shadow of Emperor Tang.

Digging people's ancestral graves... That's ZZ correct.

But after the news spread to Mumbai, those filial sons and grandchildren immediately burst into tears. When they mentioned Li Hongzhang one by one, they all wanted to crush him, but what happened was that they were the ones who were crushed. The ancestors, and even the treasures buried with the ancestors, have become exhibits in museums. For this, they are all like mourning concubines.

During this period of time, one of them was heartbroken!

"If you don't take revenge, you won't be a descendant of Aixinjueluo."

In Prince Su's mansion... No, now in Mumbai, there is still a palace there, that is, the Queen Mother and Zai Tian, ​​that is, Emperor Guangxu, living in a villa.

As for the so-called Prince Su, he just closed the door and proclaimed himself king.How could anyone in this place recognize him as a prince, even if they recognized him, it was only those exiled bannermen who would recognize him.

"Of course the prince will take revenge!"

Standing in front of Prince Su, Lieutenant Colonel Lawrence still respectfully called him a prince, but in fact, what kind of prince do these people have.

It's just a bunch of homeless dogs.

But even if it is a lost dog, it also has its value to be used. Of course, it depends on how to use it.Like the reason why he came here now is to take advantage of these people.

"However, how to avenge this revenge?"

Lawrence looked at him and said.

"My lord, there is an opportunity now, as long as you seize this opportunity, with the help of the British Empire, you will not only be able to take revenge, but even return to China in the near future to regain your country."

Take back the country!

In an instant, Long Qin became excited, he stared at Lieutenant Colonel Lawrence and said.

"Lieutenant Colonel Lawrence, you, are you telling the truth?"
