"Master, have you seen it? The northwestmost area is where the blast furnace is built, and further north is a coke plant. The coal transported from Shanxi will be unloaded directly into the coke plant..."
"The railway goes hand in hand with Qinghe River and is built all the way to the south end. The wharf and the train station are connected together. This is a large freight station. Then the railway turns south and builds a passenger station for ordinary people outside Andingmen!"
"The apprentice will build the railway to Tianjin first, and then to Tanggu... It won't take three years. Master, you won't have to take the canal when you come to the capital. After you get off the sea ship in Tanggu, you can take the train and enter the capital!"
"Master... I, the disciple of Prince Gong's Mansion, will give you my filial piety! Without you, where would I be today?"
Under the Yufeng Pagoda, Zai Chun respectfully bowed to Xiao Letian as a disciple!
How could Zai Chun not thank Xiao Letian? This master not only took him out of the capital to travel around Europe, but also gave him great support after Xiao Letian took office!
But there was a gap between Zai Chun and Xiao Letian before, especially when they were in Europe. Because of the instigation of the British, the conflict of interests between the two sides, and the interference of external factors such as assassinations and King Yi, the relationship between master and disciple Falling into a trough!
At that time, master and apprentice were almost at war with each other. In fact, Zai Chun knew very well that if he hadn't been weak enough, the army would not be able to defeat Xiao Letian, otherwise master and apprentice would have been at war with each other long ago!
The state of disharmony between face and heart has lasted for a long time, but this sudden change in the capital gave the master and apprentice a rare opportunity to bridge the relationship!
Don't look at Zai Chun imprisoning the three princes and about to kill them, don't look at his new imperial army and the kidnappers controlling the situation in the capital, don't look at the hundreds of officials in the court who are silent!
But these are all appearances. In fact, Zai Chun is in a mess. He has no direction for his subsequent governance. He doesn't know how to clean up the mess. The more unsure he is, the more he will show his power through grinning. Brutal side!
This is a common problem among superiors. Generally speaking, when a superior becomes more and more vicious, it means that he can no longer control the situation, and he can only choose to use intimidation to control it!
Making his subordinates fearful and frightened is actually the most primitive way of management, because he has no ability to solve problems with a smile at all!
Zai Chun had already fallen into such a curse at that time. The reason why many tyrants in history were cruel actually had a lot to do with his personal ability!
In the final analysis, they just don’t understand what management is and what real control is. They always like to use gangster methods and street gangster tricks to control people!
This kind of governance method may be effective in the short term, but it will cause big problems in the long run, and the backlash is very scary!
The key thing is that this kind of monarch himself doesn't think there is a problem. He falls into the illusion of others trembling in front of him. He thinks he can control it forever!
But he didn't see that the more he used the white terror, the bigger the volcano under his butt became, and the lava fire was destined to swallow him up in the end!
From the moment Zai Chun massacred 30,000 factory slaves, he was already in an extremely dangerous situation. The thousands of horses in the court standing silent were actually waiting for their screams of sorrow in their hearts!
If all the forces are really forced to practice their skills, then it is not impossible to replace you as the emperor in the future!
Xiao Letian could no longer sit back and do nothing. The day after Alute persuaded the emperor, Xiao Letian secretly asked Zai Chun to meet in a large wine vat in Nancheng. The master and apprentice talked in secret for two hours. Zai Chun was so drunk!
It was this secret meeting that allowed Zaichun to adjust the direction of his governance, and a series of good governance immediately resolved most of the hostility in the court!
"Zaichun! You must understand that it is not appropriate for you to just hate the landlord class, nor is it appropriate for you to just dislike those ignorant people!"
"After all, China's agricultural society has been going on for thousands of years. Is this huge inertia something that can be reversed just by saying it is reversed?"
"Don't think that you can change people's hearts in one or two years. How can it be so fast? I have told you before that human nature is very stubborn!"
"Before a person is eighteen years old, it is an important period for him to form his world view, outlook on life, and values. He is influenced by his family, teachers, and environment. It is difficult to change the three outlooks established in eighteen years! "
"Humans are wonderful creatures. Most people will hypnotize themselves subconsciously, thinking that their consciousness is absolutely correct! Buddhists call this ego, which means being obsessed with oneself, or absolutely selfish!"
"I'm right, the world should revolve around me, my feelings are what matters in the end!"
"The ego is too deep, so when a person reaches the age of eighteen...or let's judge it according to the age of twenty, in life after the three views are formed, unless he encounters a stimulus that can be unforgettable, he will not modify his cognition. of!"
"Three views, once they are fixed, they are fixed, and it is difficult to reverse... Think about it, it is so difficult for a person to change his mind, let alone a civilization!"
"China has used thousands of years to prove the excellence of its agricultural civilization. How can you, a man who has only been on the throne for a few days, reverse this deep-rooted thought?"
"Sober up! You have already established your authority through killing, and now it's time to feed Tianzao!"
"Faced with the huge landlord class and the ignorant and extremely poor peasant class... all you have to do now is inducement! Aren't money, grain, and taxes a bait? You got so many pounds from the UK and spent a little money on the welfare of the workers, isn't it? To win people's hearts?"
"You have killed enough people before, and they are already afraid of you. Now you can exchange a small amount of kindness for them to be grateful! Why not do it? Isn't spending money to buy time a shortcut?"
Under Xiao Letian's constant temptation, Zai Chun finally understood the situation he was facing. At this moment, the Qing Dynasty was nothing more than three major forces wrestling with each other!
On the one hand, there is the landlord class, which is dominated by Han people. Most of these people are scholars. Local ethics, morality, public security and economy are basically controlled by these people!
The second one is the Manchu Eight Banners aristocratic class, which is a powerful group represented by Prince Zai Chungong and others. They are also the landlord class themselves, but they are a group that controls the absolute military power of the Qing Empire!
This aristocratic class also uses the land to make profits. At the same time, it can also use military force to plunder the wealth of the Han landlord class!
And the third one is the emerging foreign forces, not only foreign devils but also Japanese devils like Xiao Letian!
They have a unified characteristic, that is, they use the violent power of industrial civilization to forcibly insert themselves into the order of the Qing Empire and break the balance!
"In general, your grand strategy is correct, Zai Chun, but your tactics urgently need to be adjusted!" Xiao Letian said with a blushing face after pouring three glasses of wine into Zai Chun.
