To be obedient, you must listen to the sound. How can people who have lived for most of their lives not understand the subtext of the head of state? This is the real reward for them!
You support the construction of the naval training base so much. I have no other reward for you, but I want your children to serve as soldiers in the training base.
Is this really soldiering? This is a direct special move from the head of state! The soldiers recruited directly through the hands of the head of state will be the shortcut to the south from now on. How many detours will be avoided?
How could someone without great fortune have such an opportunity? The atmosphere was all blown up!
"Woooooooo... Don't worry, head of state, we will have as much food as we need, and we will have as many soldiers as we need..."
"That's right, the young men in our family have been guarding the harbor every day these days, looking at the heavy cruiser and reluctant to leave!"
"Children dream of fighting on a battleship like this and serving as soldiers. This man's life is so interesting..."
"Please rest assured, Head of State... We will have a meeting when we get home. Tomorrow we will send gifts to all people and ask the Head of State to set up a training camp in Mauritius!"
"Those British big noses are guaranteed to find no excuse..."
Xiao Letian smiled and clinked glasses with the patriarchs of these big families and drank. In one round, there were more than eight taels of fine Huadiao wine, but the wine was meaningful.
With more than one million silver dollars raised, these families can provide at least more than 300 literate young talents, all of whom are bilingual.
You must know that many of these immigrant families are not first-generation immigrants, but many are second- and third-generation immigrants from Malaysia, Lion City, Luzon and other places.
The children of these families have received a pretty good education and have excellent bilingual skills. Many families train them as heirs to their family's industry.
As a result, Xiao Letian’s eight liang Huadiao wine was wiped out!
At the end of the banquet, the family patriarchs who had drunk too much were helped out. Xiao Letian had a final discussion with Fatty Jin, Golden Eyed Snapper and others, and then returned to Swan Castle to rest with Princess Sissi.
Sissi looked at Xiao Letian with admiration on her face, "If you were in the Middle Ages, you would have been arrested by the Inquisition. Your tongue must have been enchanted by a witch... You didn't do anything, and you could make them do it with just a few words." Spend money to send talents, you are so awesome!"
Xiao Letian pinched Sissy's chin and kissed her, "You're right, my tongue has been exposed! It's so powerful, I can deceive you in just a few words..."
"Not only the outstanding talents of the Chinese people, but also the young talents of Europe... I had a chat with Nicholas Tesla in the afternoon..."
"What a genius! I just came up with a few bold ideas, and he was able to draw the sketches..."
"You will see in the future, electric lights, ultra-high voltage power transmission, telephones, radios... a dreamlike future is about to appear in East Asia..."
"I told this kid, as long as you do one of these things, I will make you a baron, two things like a viscount, three things like an earl... For the four things, I will give you the status of a first-class duke and a permanent Chinese citizen!"
"Leave your name in history, and all Chinese universities will erect a full-length bronze statue of you... When you are alive, I will make you as rich as the country, and when you die, I will make your name go down in history!"
"The most important thing is that I give you respect and a platform to display your talents... This is the best platform that no country in the world can give you!"
"In ancient times, there was a proverb about buying horse bones for a thousand pieces of gold. I just want to use this child as a golden business card for our Chinese people to cherish and respect talents!"
"The more successful Nicholas Tesla is in his life, the more it proves how attractive our Chinese platform is!"
"I will make scientists all over the world regard our Chinese nation as a sacred place... The Shaw Nobel Prize will be the biggest jewel in the crown of all human sciences!"
After listening to Xiao Letian's words, Sissi smiled at first but soon her expression turned lonely. "Hey... you remind me of Austria and Hungary..."
"My husband also has great ambitions, but he doesn't have talents like you. He can't even make good use of domestic talents..."
"Truss, I don't know how you found him... but my husband doesn't even know that such a person exists!"
Xiao Letian held her in his arms and said drunkenly, "Actually, this is not his problem, but a common problem in the old empire. My apprentice Tongzhi Emperor Zaichun encountered more serious problems than your husband." …”
"You have to know that the size of a country is only one factor of strength. What is even more important is the ability to organize and mobilize!"
"Is the Qing Empire big? More than 10 million square kilometers, but how much of the country's potential can you mobilize? The three dynasties of Kangxi, Yongzong and Qianlong were so powerful that they could not even bring imperial power to the countryside, let alone other weak monarchs!"
"Under the rule of these traditional feudal emperors, whether it was the Austro-Hungarian Empire or the Qing Empire, the power of the vast majority of the people was actually frozen!"
"The real wealth of the Qing Dynasty was accumulated in the countryside and controlled by the landlord class. The imperial power could not penetrate at all!"
"In the Qing Empire, the lowest official in the imperial court who accepted orders was the county magistrate. All positions below the county magistrate were recommended by local governments, which meant they were controlled by powerful landlords!"
"This model has existed for thousands of years. These local powers have their own ideas. They know how to listen and see, and they know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages!"
"Zai Chun must ensure that he always fights smoothly. He must hold up the high position of imperial power and not collapse. He cannot show any weakness to the outside world!"
"If he can't do it... haha, those powerful landowners among the people will abandon him as soon as possible!"
When Sissi heard this, she turned over and looked at Xiao Letian, "You... aren't you going to help a group of your apprentices? Just watch him struggle in the conspiracy..."
Xiao Letian was a little sleepy at the moment and said with a sigh of relief, "People... in order to mature, people must go through hardships on their own... I can't take him with me forever..."
"Besides, I don't have...that obligation..."
After saying this, Xiao Letian pressed his chest to Sissi's chest and soon fell asleep!
Sissi shook her head helplessly, covered his cup, opened her eyes and looked out the window at the stars over the Indian Ocean, wondering what she was thinking.
Xiao Letian's tongue was really open. He was talking about organizational and mobilization capabilities, but far away in the capital, Zai Chun was in a situation where he had no troops to use!
At present, there are almost no large-scale corps that can be mobilized from south to north of the capital. It is useless to count on local battalion heads. What is enough for a few thousand today and a few hundred tomorrow?
If we want to reverse the situation of the war, we must have tens of thousands of new troops to join the war!
The Eight Banners Cavalry Regiment on the Mongolian Plateau is an option, and the Hunchun Legion outside the Pass is also an option, but neither is the best choice at this moment.
So where are the remaining soldiers? Everyone thought of one person, and that was Emperor Master Xiao Letian!
Fu Qing said with a trembling mouth, "Why don't you... why don't you go to the Chinese to ask for help? Anyway, last time I went to Beijing to visit King Qin, and if there is one, then there will be two. We are familiar with the roads..."
The seven people in the Ancestral Temple were silent for a long time. Baojun whispered, "But...but Xiao Letian is not in Asia at the moment..."
