Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Xu Jingcheng is already very old this year, and his skills are incomparable to Lin Yuan's. Lin Yuan dodged backwards and dodged Xu Jingcheng's fist. , Lin Yuan rushed forward, grabbed him, and asked with a smile, "Master Xu, are you alright?"

Xu Jingcheng pushed Lin Yuan hard, his voice trembling with anger, and said, "Let go of me, I don't need your help even if I fall to death!"

Lin Yuan said: "Why do you say that I betrayed my country and sought glory? I didn't do anything."

Xu Jingcheng said: "You still said that you didn't do anything! What did you say during the meeting today! Don't you remember?"

Xu Jingcheng was yelling, when the door of a nearby room opened, Shen Wanqing came out and said to the two people, "What are you arguing about here? Come to the room to talk about something."

Xu Jingcheng snorted coldly, and walked into the next room, Lin Yuan and Shen Wanqing also walked into the room, Shen Wanqing closed the door casually, Xu Jingcheng sneered: "Miss Shen, you should say what Lin Yuan said today. Write it in the newspaper, let him be denounced by thousands of people, and reviled by thousands of people!"

Lin Yuan looked at Xu Jingcheng's righteous indignation, and couldn't help laughing out loud. Xu Jingcheng said angrily, "You still laugh. What you do will not only be reviled by thousands of people, but the history books will not let you go! Let me tell you , These agreements must not be signed today, if you sign, you will be infamous forever!"

Shen Wanqing looked at Lin Yuan with a smile, and asked, "What did you do? You ceded Beijing, didn't you?"

Xu Jingcheng straightened his face and said angrily, "Miss Shen, don't be joking. At today's meeting, Lin Yuan actually wanted to build a railway from the Qing Dynasty to Germany. Tell me, isn't this traitorous?"

Shen Wanqing thought for a while and said, "It's nothing? The railway has been repaired and the trade is smooth. Everyone is happy."

Xu Jingcheng sighed, and said: "Shuzi is not enough to plan! What do you, a woman, know? The Russians covet Xinjiang like a black bear, and the Germans are not good things. They fought with our fleet a few years ago. He stole several million taels of silver from us, comparable to a wolf. Lin Yuan wanted to use the power of the Germans to counter Russia, just like a wolf fighting a bear, but he never thought that wolves are more greedy and dangerous than bears! If wolves and Xiong is in a fight, and the Qing Dynasty is in danger!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "So you think so, we have a far-reaching intention to build the railway to Europe, don't you see it?"

Xu Jingcheng said angrily, "What's the intention?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "We are far away from Europe. With this railway, it will be much more convenient to go to Europe. When there is a situation in Europe, we can use this railway to project our power. You understand ?"

Xu Jingcheng was stunned, and said hesitantly: "What are you talking about? Whenever Europe has something to do, it will project our power? What can Europe do? What is our power?"

Lin Yuan smiled lightly and said: "Don't you understand the principle of destroying the enemy at their starting point? This railway seems to allow Europeans to enter our territory quickly, but in fact, we can also quickly enter our territory. to enter Europe, don't you think?"

Lin Yuan continued: "Not only when there is business in Europe, but also in normal times, we can also conduct trade through this railway, don't you think?"

Xu Jingcheng frowned again when he heard this, and said, "Is there still trade? Why don't you know that Xinjiang is rich in cotton, and countless cotton farmers make a living from it. Britain, France and Germany are all rich and powerful because of cotton and wool. The reason why their cotton is The inability to enter Xinjiang is all due to inconvenient transportation, and now that the railway is built, a large amount of cotton, cotton cloth, and cotton clothes will inevitably flock to Xinjiang, forcing cotton farmers in Xinjiang to have no means of living, and chaos will inevitably ensue!"

After listening to Xu Jingcheng's words, Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing, and said, "Is it for this? I thought there was some great reason? You don't know, once the railway is built, Xinjiang will surely be as prosperous as Jiangnan!"

Xu Jingcheng smiled disdainfully, and said, "You are talking nonsense, how can Xinjiang be as rich as Jiangnan?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "The underground in Xinjiang is full of black gold, did you know that?"

Xu Jingcheng asked: "Black gold? Is it oil?"

Lin Yuan nodded and replied, "That's right, it's oil!"

Xu Jingcheng said: "When I was in Beijing, I heard the German and American ministers say that oil is an excellent thing and will replace coal in the future, but oil is hidden deep underground and it is extremely difficult to get it out. Don't we The Qing Dynasty also has this ability? Dig them out of the ground?"

Lin Yuan laughed loudly and said, "Of course, we can not only dig out the oil, but also sell it to the Germans, French and British at a high price, do you believe it?"

Xu Jingcheng showed an expression of disbelief, and Lin Yuan asked, "Do you know how oil is produced from one place, and how to transport it to another place is the fastest and most economical?"

Xu Jingcheng thought for a while and said, "Could it be by train?"

Lin Yuan shook his head again and again, and said, "That's not true. How much oil can a train transport?"

Xu Jingcheng added: "I know, it must be by ship. I once heard the American minister say that their country has large ships dedicated to transporting oil, and one ship can fully carry hundreds of thousands of tons of oil."

Lin Yuan said helplessly: "What you said makes no sense. Don't even think about it. From Xinjiang to Europe, there are not even many rivers, let alone oceans! Even if we have a large ship of hundreds of thousands of tons, where are we going? open?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "You don't need to guess, let me tell you, if we can use a thick pipe to directly lead from Xinjiang to Europe, let the oil flow in the pipe, day and night, tell me, How about this method?"

What Lin Yuan was talking about was the pipeline transportation in the modern oil industry. This transportation method can save costs to the greatest extent, and the transportation volume is still large. After hearing this, Xu Jingcheng was so surprised that he could not speak. A sentence was squeezed out: "Do you know how to build this pipeline?"

Lin Yuan said: "Of course, oil doesn't flow by itself in pipelines. It needs something to push it, which requires turbines. These things are unique to us. Even European countries don't understand such advanced technology!"

Seeing Lin Yuan's seriousness, Xu Jingcheng felt from the bottom of his heart: Lin Yuan is really unfathomable, so he said, "Well, what happened today is wrong, I hope you don't worry about it, my lord."

Lin Yuan suddenly smiled coldly: "Master Xu, you are the real traitor! You are guilty!"

Lin Yuan's current status is Xu Jingcheng's boss. Even though Xu Jingcheng is older than Lin Yuan, he still has to listen to Lin Yuan. Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Xu Jingcheng quickly knelt down and said, "Being loyal, the world can learn from you. I am a traitor, what an injustice in the world!"

Lin Yuan sneered and said: "Master Xu, the two translators and two assistants who participated in the meeting today are all trained by me. They will definitely not talk about this matter, but you are in the posthouse. Yelling about this matter, have you ever thought about how bad it will be if it is heard by others and spread internationally?"
