1890 King of Southeast Asia
Chapter 684: The Chinese Empire (Part 1)
February 9th, the Chinese New Year, is one of the most important festivals for all Chinese people.
Because Japan was still "accumulating wealth" and preparing to make Nanhua retreat, it even built a group of fortresses in Korea and focused on defense, and did not take the initiative to attack.
Therefore, the Chinese world spent a year in the clamor of this war with a unique flavor.
After the New Year, the Chinese people began to be busy again. With the completion of the first phase of the industrial plan, China had basic heavy industry, and the overall process of industrialization began to accelerate. More and more people were included in the huge machine of industry.
On February 25th, after the Lantern Festival, the school resumed, and the whole society came out of the bustle of the New Year and began to be busy.
Jinling, Jinling Railway Secondary Technical School.
Wang Xiaoyu carried the big package that his mother packed for him and stepped into the school gate.
"Have you heard about it?"
"I heard about it a long time ago, I'll tell you..."
"Shh, don't dare to talk nonsense, the wall has ears..."
Wang Xiaoyu looked at the mysterious juniors and sisters and grinned.
Once upon a time, he was like his juniors, enjoying the fun and gossiping. That period was the most carefree time for him.
Wang Xiaoyu was born in a farming family. His family was a self-employed farmer. There were six people and 20 acres of land. Although they were not well-off, they lived a good life.
That was why his father was willing to send him to school. After all, although the tuition was free, going to school was equivalent to losing a labor force in the family.
Wang Xiaoyu thought as he walked to the door of the dormitory - a row of large houses.
"Brother Xiaoyu is back? How was the internship? Is the master fierce?" His roommate Cai Qidong stuck his head out of the window.
"Brother Xiaoyu, you won't leave this time, right? I heard that the Ministry of Education will establish Jinling University of Technology at the beginning of this year, and all students from secondary schools can apply for the exam."
"Forget about the University of Technology. We can't beat those guys from the senior high school. It's better to apply for the Higher Industrial College. Our majors are related."
"Yes, yes, I think so too, but you can try Qidong. Your grades have always been better."
There are eight people in a dormitory, and six of them are here. Wang Xiaoyu looked at these partners who had been together for two and a half years and went up to them dangerously.
"I won't take the exam. The internship is very interesting. I can learn a lot of things that I can't learn in school. I also drove a train once. The master is also very good." Wang Xiaoyu went into the room and put down his things.
"Train? How about driving a train? Brother Xiaoyu, tell me quickly, is it difficult? What kind of locomotive..." Sure enough, the attention of a group of friends was immediately diverted.
At this time, there is no requirement for internship after graduation. The school will only issue certificates to students who want to intern in the middle and late fifth semester to prove their identity.
All kinds of companies that need to recruit people will consciously come to the school to post a notice, and then whoever is interested can apply for the job.
For those who don't want to intern, the school will not ask them too much, and will provide classrooms and books for students who want to go to school.
However, those who participate in further studies are a minority after all. At this time in China, most people's families are extremely poor. Even if tuition and miscellaneous fees are reduced, it is still difficult to support a student.
After finishing school, most graduates will apply for jobs and start earning money according to the notices posted by the company.
Coincidentally, the family conditions of Wang Xiaoyu's dormitory are not too bad, including Wang Xiaoyu. If he is willing to continue to take the exam, his family will also support him.
Therefore, only two people in their dormitory choose to intern, and six people choose to stay in school to prepare for the exam.
"Brother Xiaoyu, I heard that the Ministry of Education provides low-interest loans to college students, which are enough for living and do not need to trouble their families." Cai Qidong said softly.
Wang Xiaoyu's grades are very good. At least half of the subjects are ranked first in the grade, and the comprehensive evaluation is also A.
If Wang Xiaoyu takes the exam, he can basically get in.
The difference between graduating from a secondary technical school and graduating from a university is a world of difference.
"No, my younger brother and sister are also of school age. Besides, my unit is not bad either. They may not be worse than you, a college student, when the time comes." Wang Xiaoyu patted Cai Qidong on the shoulder and smiled.
Although she was smiling, Wang Xiaoyu still felt sorry in her heart. At this time, there was no academic qualification flooding. College students in China were really rarer than pandas.
"Xiaoyu is right. I advise you, except Qidong, others to take the opportunity to do internships." Lin Yaodong walked in wearing a dark green uniform.
Lin Yaodong was the other person in their dormitory who went to do internships.
"Brother Yaodong, what are you talking about? There are still two months before the exam. If you don't review hard now..." Several people were surprised and chattered.
Lin Yaodong's background is a bit mysterious. He has never been surprised by many major events. He behaves well-informed and has his own unique insights on major events, many of which are correct.
"You should have heard that President Huang resigned, and the background of the newly appointed Premier Chen is a little unclear." Lin Yaodong raised his head, looking like you are here to ask me.
"Yes, yes, why did Premier Huang resign? It's not time yet."
"And after President Huang resigned, he is still missing."
"I heard that Premier Huang left Shanghai by boat on the night of the Lantern Festival, and his whereabouts are unknown."
"Did they fight? Fleeing abroad again?"
Seeing that his partners were going further and further away, Lin Yaodong was anxious, and he wanted to show off.
"Okay, okay, Yaodong, what's the matter?" Wang Xiaoyu smiled and stood up to interrupt the discussion, getting the argument back to the point.
"Big news! The Presidential Palace has made major adjustments to the entire China, and officials have been frequently transferred."
"At the same time, a new plan has been passed, and a new round of railway plans will begin this year. This is a rare opportunity, so I asked you to go to work quickly and stop wasting time in school."
As Lin Yaodong said this, a young man in military uniform walked in.
"Yaodong, we are going to the headquarters. You can come to the headquarters and wait for us later." Huang Zhengfang patted Lin Yaodong on the shoulder.
"Okay, Huang, you go first." Lin Yaodong nodded like a chicken eating rice.
"Okay, have fun." Huang Zhengfang smiled at the students and turned to leave.
"Brother Yaodong, who is this senior official? He is so young?"
"Oh my god, Lin Yaodong, you are the real thigh!"
"You are so hidden! Your brother has fought against Japanese pirates, right? It's strange, such a young colonel should be very famous."
Boys, most of them like guns and cannons, and then they also like military life, and have a superficial study of the army.
Huang Zhengfang came to Nanjing on business, wearing a formal dress, and the rank of colonel on his collar was not concealed.
Colonel, a brigade-level officer, so young, has a bright future!
"Yaodong, can you tell me in detail about the big adjustment you mentioned?" Wang Xiaoyu asked.
"No, don't do that, I really can't say it, you just need to know that I won't hurt you, I really can't say anything else." Lin Yaodong almost blurted it out, but fortunately he remembered his father's belt and held it back.
His father's belt never shows mercy. If his mother knew that he made such a mistake, she would not save him. The person who can save him is a million miles away.
"Cai Qidong, what's your expression? Forget it. You will know in ten days or half a month. It shouldn't be too late then."
"Xiaoyu, your unit should have a plan to move to the west. Believe me, sign up. Whether it's the southwest or the northwest, there will be great opportunities in the future."
Lin Yaodong paused.
"I can only say that if you go, you will most likely be able to join the Construction Corps. I can't say much about other things. I'm going to pack up." Lin Yaodong began to pack up neatly.
"Construction Corps?" Wang Xiaoyu frowned and confirmed the fact that Lin Yaodong had a deep background.
The Construction Corps of Huaxia is not like Nanhua. Nanhua is a reclamation system. Basically, every village used to be a construction corps. After the reclamation matured, it was changed to a local unit. Some areas continued to maintain it for various reasons.
The reasons are complex and varied, such as cost saving, involving military secrets, or requiring a higher level of protection, etc.
While Huaxia has a construction corps, it often builds a special corps based on a certain project, such as the Mengken Construction Corps.
These special projects have led to a large proportion of its military. In the eyes of many people, this is the second-line military force.
Wang Xiaoyu also thinks so. Reclamation is nothing new in Chinese history.
"Why do we need reclamation? War? The Japanese have new moves, so we need to expand the army?" Wang Xiaoyu couldn't figure it out.
After discussing with his friends, Wang Xiaoyu left school. I don't know if it was a psychological effect. I felt that the streets were much more chaotic.
Back to the unit, Wang Xiaoyu asked about the artillery. Jinling Railway Group will set up a technical team to go to the northwest for railway technical guidance.
If it was before, Wang Xiaoyu would definitely refuse without thinking. Although the allowances and subsidies would be higher after going, it would be too far away from home after all, and he could not take care of his younger brothers and sisters.
This was contrary to his original plan.
"I sign up!" Wang Xiaoyu squeezed out of the crowd, got a registration form, and began to fill in the information.
Wang Xiaoyu met all the requirements, and with his youth, he easily passed the first round of assessment.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoyu was under examination for the next few days. A telegram came from home saying that the mayor had sent someone to his home to inquire about the situation.
Until March 1st, Wang Xiaoyu was suddenly pulled into a car and dragged to the suburbs. Here, he saw an airship up close for the first time and also rode an airship for the first time.
The airship flew all the way to the northwest. The speed was not as slow as Wang Xiaoyu imagined. There was also a large group of soldiers with them, or Wang Xiaoyu was hitchhiking.
It was very boring on the airship. Wang Xiaoyu was tired after walking around for a few hours, so he lay in the room and looked out the window.
"It's done!"
"Hahahaha..."
"Long live!"
"Long live!"
"Long live China!"
"Excuse me, what's going on?" The noise woke Wang Xiaoyu up. He carefully came to the lobby, looked at the carnival soldiers, and asked the waiter beside him.
"China has merged with South China, and the Chinese Empire has been established." The waiter explained excitedly on the side.
"What...what? That..." This news shocked Wang Xiaoyu.
He had thought about a lot, but he never expected that the big move Lin Yaodong mentioned would be this.
Turning his head, he happened to see the logo of the South China Empire printed on the small table.
