Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 190 Far East Joint Stock Company
After the signing of the new field cooperation agreement, a large number of German technicians entered Shaanxi, Beijing and other places.China and Germany have really carried out all-round cooperation, whether in military, educational, economic and other fields.

The first question that Guan Xuqing posed to Guan Xuqing after the establishment of the company was who would be in charge of this multinational enterprise?The people under him are all well-rounded in officialdom, but they are complete idiots in business.

Although the cooperation agreement clearly stipulates that the airship company is managed by Germany.But if I don’t send someone to watch it, I don’t feel at ease. After thinking about it, let Li Zhen, the Minister of the Ministry of Households, watch it first. Although this honest man who is in charge of the Bank of Daqing and the housekeeper of the Qing Dynasty has no extraordinary skills, One advantage is cleanliness.Although historically, the Germans are very strict, and generally there is no corruption, but I am changing history, and I am always worried if I don’t look at it. Besides, the money to start the company is big. Qing took it out from the Ministry of Accounts. As the Minister of the Ministry of Accounts, of course Li Zhen would take it more seriously than others.

After the decision was made, Li Zhen came to Li Zhen with just a paper appointment. Li Zhen, who had been arguing about the existence of this company, finally found a reason to stare at this Far East joint-stock company. The airship has to share [-]% of the profits with the Germans.

After economic cooperation with the Germans, I discovered that the Germans are surprisingly efficient.Before the Kaiser left the capital, it took only five days to complete everything from mining to oil refining to the manufacture of internal combustion engines to the construction of the airship.

William boarded the warship returning to Germany after seeing the first airship successfully fly from the capital to Shandong. After seeing off William, Guan Xuqing was also preparing to go on a southern tour.But before the southern tour, there are many things that need to be explained.

On the second day of March in the 19th year of Guangxu, Guan Xuqing called Daqi on this day.

In the morning, Guan Xuqing looked at the ministers in the hall.As long as he thinks that these people are all obedient and obedient, and they appear to be courtiers of the Qing Dynasty, but in fact they all belong to some so-called party or party, he will not be angry.

"I'm called Daqi today, and I have two things to tell you." Guan Xuqing looked around and continued: "First, all the ministers and workers may have heard that the Qing Dynasty and Germany jointly exploited the oil fields in Shaanxi. Learn other people's advanced refining technology. And opened an airship company, German technology shares accounted for 30.00% of our airship company's shares. Why is this? Who told us that no one in the Qing Dynasty could make it! We can only let Germany People teach us, but why does Qing Dynasty always walk behind others?"

The more Guan Xuqing spoke, the more excited he became, everyone in the hall was completely silent, not a single sound.One by one, they lowered their heads!
"I asked the Ministry of Households to allocate a lot of money to the localities every day to popularize education, but why hasn't the country produced a good seedling after so many years? Is there no one in our Qing Dynasty, or the money for education has not fallen to the localities at all. This I believe that all the ministers know better than me." Guan Xuqing continued to scan everyone in the hall with his eyes, and continued: "A few days ago, I didn't have the time or energy to do these things because of the war with Thailand, but now I have them every day. Empty. I want to find out where all the education funds allocated by the Ministry of Household Affairs have been spent. Why did so many students who graduated from Tsinghua University and Peking University go to teach in the local area not long ago and prefer to join the army instead of being teachers? Is it because the patriotism is so strong? Or is it because there are not so many schools for them to teach? Or is it that the money for teaching is not as much as the salary of soldiers?"

When Guan Xuqing mentioned the excitement, he couldn't help but slapped the table, making creepy "boom", "boom".

"The wisdom of our [-] million compatriots in the Qing Dynasty is not as good as the tens of millions of people in Germany? Since the Qing Dynasty, we have opened universities, popularized education, and invested more money in education every year than previous dynasties, but Why was there a Xu Shou before, who brought me grenades and mortars, but now there is nothing? Has all this money been wasted?" Guan Xuqing pointed at the officials under the steps and cursed road.

There was still silence down below, and even the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be heard.

Guan Xuqing paused for a moment, and was even more angry when he saw that everyone was silent, and continued: "From today on, I will set up another six departments in addition to the original six departments of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Industry. The Ministry of Education directly allocates funds to the Ministry of Education from the Ministry of Households every year. Special personnel are in charge. The construction of schools and popularization of education in each province are directly managed by the Ministry of Education of the imperial court. I can't trust my subjects, but my subjects have let me down too much."

"Cha." After Guan Xuqing made his order, there was a little sound from below.

Guan Xuqing calmed down a little, and said, "Everyone, please tell me, who is the right secretary of the Ministry of Education?"

"Returning to the emperor, Xu Shouzhi's favorite student graduated from Tsinghua University ten years ago. It is most appropriate for Luan Xueqian, who is also the first batch of graduates of Tsinghua University, to take on this position." Kang Youwei took a step forward and said.

"Well, where is this person now?" Guan Xuqing nodded in satisfaction. What he was satisfied with was not how capable Luan Xueqian was. What he was satisfied with was that the candidate proposed by Kang Youwei did not belong to any party in the imperial court. Hate it, though he knew it couldn't be completely wiped out.

"Return to the emperor, this person has a lot of research in chemistry. He is currently serving as the research director of the Hubei Gun Bureau!" Kang Youwei said.

Guan Xuqing immediately said: "The decree is to appreciate Luan Xueqian's eyes and feathers, and bestow him with a first-class crown. Let him immediately go to Beijing to take up a post as Minister of the Ministry of Education."

"Cha." Kang Youwei fell to his knees.

The people below seem to regret the sudden loss of a first-grade Dingdai from their own hands.But he was full of curiosity about the second thing the emperor wanted to say, and secretly made up his mind that if there was another department, he would rush out and recommend himself.

"Secondly, I decided to make a southern tour in the near future. I have already decided on the personnel to accompany me. Feng Xianghua and Liang Qichao are in the capital to oversee the country. As the saying goes, I go to Yangzhou in March, and now the south is just in spring, so I have time to relax. "Guan Xuqing changed his face all of a sudden, and said relaxedly.

As soon as the second thing was said, the scene was completely reversed.It was silent just now, but now it seems like a pot has exploded, and the people below are discussing one after another.

"Qizou the emperor, is the southern tour going by water or land? Which provinces will be passed through, and the emperor's palace should be prepared. All these must be prepared in advance, I am afraid it is so hasty," Zhang Zhidong said worriedly.

Guan Xuqing quickly waved his hand and said: "Don't bother, I'm just going out for a walk to relax. There's no need to work too hard, I just take the imperial army and send a guard group to Dong Liang. When I get there, I will contact the capital of."
