Opening game, American Tycoon

As soon as he took office, Zhang Peilun did a great job!
Before he left Xuzhou, he specially applied for a subsidy to subsidize the self-financed international students. The foreign students he sponsored were not limited to the self-financed international students under the imperial court. Form application can also apply for living allowance.

"Today, there are more than a thousand Chinese students studying abroad at their own expense in the Ming Dynasty. The imperial court only needs a few thousand yuan a month to win people's hearts and use them for the emperor!"

Zhang Peilun's words convinced Li Xuzhou, who was not yet enthroned at the time, and the Consulate General in Daming received a sum of money, which was specially used to subsidize self-financed students studying abroad.

I have to say, but the 34-year-old Zhang Peilun's vision is really vicious and sophisticated, and he can see the benefits of subsidizing overseas students at a glance.

To put it bluntly, it is to strive for these people to be able to use them for themselves.

But that's all. In the past few months in Daming, after witnessing the prosperity and prosperity of Daming with his own eyes, Zhang Peilun seemed to understand why those officers would make military remonstrance.

If the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not fall, it would be impossible for Huaxia to carry out the reform and reform. If the law does not change and reform, without the New Deal, it will be impossible for China to become prosperous and strong.Therefore, defeating the Manchus is the last and only option.

When this idea came up in his mind, Zhang Peilun cast his eyes on Zhan Tianyou who was sitting in the passenger seat - he is also a member of the Xinghan Club.

One of the go-getters who made the remonstrance last year, why was he sent to Daming when the officers of the "Xinghanhui" rebellion were reused one after another?

The reason is very simple. He used a gun to force Jinshang to electrify against the Qing Dynasty. Yes, Mr. Li, who was originally the Minister of Beiyang and Governor of Zhili in the Qing Dynasty, embarked on the road of anti-Qing. Being hit has a lot to do with it, but the anti-Qing movement last year was completely an accident, purely helpless.That's right, this is the "boss" who was forced out. Zhao Kuangyin's yellow robe was a play, but it was true that Mr. Li was forced to take the position.

Eight years ago, after the first group of military officers who studied in Ming Dynasty returned to Xuzhou, they received new military education and soon became the backbone of the Huai Army. In the army, he secretly conspired against the Qing Dynasty.

Finally, last year they used the opportunity of spring exercises to launch a military remonstrance.Those school lieutenants and officers didn't have any ambitions. They didn't think of fighting for power and profit without a leader, but forced Master Li to take the lead in rebelling against the Qing Dynasty.

Facing the muzzle of military officers, Mr. Li, who was already dissatisfied with the imperial court, knew that this matter was difficult to resolve, so he had no choice but to make a mistake, and became the leading brother against the Qing Dynasty.

Now that the "leader brother" has ascended the throne, and the young military officer who launched the military remonstrance has become the founding hero. While being promoted, Zhan Tianyou, who was directly remonstrating in front of the account, was in a bit of an embarrassing situation. He was promoted to a higher rank and served as a military officer in Daming.

"Yuancheng, where are we going next?"

Hearing the ambassador's question, Zhan Tianyou answered quickly.

"My lord, according to the itinerary, we are going to visit the locomotive company."

"Locomotive company? That's something to look at. When I left Xuzhou, I heard that the imperial court wanted to repair the railways inside and outside the customs. They wanted to repair the railways to Heilongjiang and Kyakta, so as to immigrate to the border and prevent the Russians from getting involved. This railway construction Naturally, the locomotives are imported, um..."

After a slight nod, Zhang Peilun asked again.

"However, the most important thing for this railway construction is funds. After arriving in Nanhua, those bankers still have to meet. No matter what, we must first obtain some funds from Daming."

After listening to what the ambassador said, Zhan Tianyou suggested.

"My lord, it is actually not difficult to win the support of the banking industry. If your lord has no acquaintances, you might as well start with the steel company and the locomotive company. They are purchased here, but the lower officials think that the most urgent task for your lord right now is to negotiate with Daming to revise the new contract, otherwise you can’t be self-improving! And Daming is my friend of China, so naturally he is willing to help me accomplish this!"

Zhan Tianyou's words made Zhang Peilun think deeply.

"Revising the New Testament has a lot to do with it, and we can't rush it. Besides, if you want to achieve some things without paying a price, it's just a dream!"

When mentioning this matter, Zhang Peilun said with emotion.

"Although Daming is a friendly country, but Daming... After all, it is also a great power!"

Although Ming is a friendly country, it is still a great power after all!

On this point, Zhang Peilun's judgment is not wrong, but for all the great powers, they must consider their interests first, and between countries, their own interests come first.However, what he didn't know was that Emperor Zhu already had corresponding plans for Huaxia.

"I heard that Zhang Peilun is visiting various places?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, counting the itinerary, you should be arriving in Nanhua soon."

Liu Kunpeng replied.

"Well, after he comes back, I will meet him again."

"Your Majesty has other arrangements?"

Hearing this, Liu Kunpeng realized that His Majesty must be planning to take action.

"Yes, I still want to meet this person again. In fact, if necessary, I would like to go to Dongying to meet Li Xuzhou and discuss the issue of helping China achieve industrialization."

"Help Huaxia achieve industrialization!"

Liu Kunpeng was taken aback by His Majesty's decision.

"Has Your Majesty decided to fully assist Xuzhou?"

"It's not about comprehensive assistance, well, it's more guidance than assistance."

Emperor Zhu paused for a moment, then said:
"The British really have ulterior motives! Increased investment in overseas students is just one of them. Since it is raising Gu, the British can't be the only ones to do it. We didn't say anything. Wouldn't it be better to let others fight alone!"

"It's obvious, if we don't take action, then Xuzhou is likely to seek support from the UK or other countries!"

Liu Kunpeng echoed that, in fact, he had a good personal relationship with Mr. Li, so of course he supported Daming to help Xuzhou. As for Tianjing, he didn't have any good feelings at all, and he didn't think that side would become the final winner. It doesn't matter, it's the reality. He said it a few years ago - the kingdom of heaven with thousands of princes and prime ministers will be destroyed only sooner or later.

"Yes, but the power we can invest there is also very limited, and compared to funds, what is China most in need of at present? It is technical guidance!"

Emperor Zhu said directly.

"We can send some experts in a targeted manner to help them formulate a systematic and scientific development plan. Through this kind of support, we can finally achieve the integration of China!"
