The great emperor of crossing

Just when the Air Force was in full swing, Zhang Zhidong's steel company finally started its own track, but this time Zhang Zhidong also needed to cross the river by feeling the stones. Fortunately, he also has some foreign and previous experience here, and He also has a book about Zhao Lie's steel plant construction and products in his hand, which can be said to have been of great help at this time.

"Lin Zexu, you haven't taken office until now because the emperor wants you to be by my side and hurry up to get the steel company out. But this time, what suggestions do you have?"

"I think there are a few key things to do now. First of all, we must get support, that is to say, we need a source of funds. At this point, we need the strong support of the state. The first is the State Council, that is to say , Prime Minister Wang must be allowed to take this matter completely as his own, so that a hearing can be formed in the State Council, that is, an argument."

At this time, Lin Zexu finally showed his talent, while Zhang Zhidong became a student at this time. Although this conversation was at the wine table in Zhang Zhidong's home, perhaps this is the only way to make him feel better. Say everything you need to say.

"You mean to say that we must first get the support of the State Council, but hasn't the emperor already given us an order?"

"You are worthy of being the leader of Qingliu, but you are really inferior to me in terms of human relationships. Who is Zhang Yi? He used to be Prime Minister Zuo, and now he is also the famous Prime Minister Wang. If you don't give him enough face, he will Will you approve the funds? To be an official in Chang'an City, you must first learn how to behave. In this regard, Sheng Xuanhuai and Liang Qichao are better than you, so their current company and organization are already in full swing."

In fact, the current Lin Zexu must help Zhang Zhidong do all the things that should be done well. The key issue is to let Zhang Zhidong's steel company start operating as soon as possible, otherwise the entire empire will be more and more backward. .

"Then you tell me what we should do next after the State Department ends?"

"After the State Council's demonstration is over, we must first establish a good relationship with the National Academy of Sciences, and we must help them create the Ministry of Geology. In this regard, Prime Minister Wang's support for us is crucial, and We must now find a place where we can build a railway in the future. Otherwise, it will be a very headache if the steel is manufactured, and there is no way to transport it. That is to say, we must hurry up to help the emperor find a talent for the railway company. Hurry up Let him get the best of what he has."

Only now did Zhang Zhidong realize how much what he had done would benefit the country. He never thought that he could influence the fate of a country in an instant.

"That means to demonstrate first, after the demonstration, go to the National Academy of Sciences, then find a way to get the Ministry of Geology up, and finally find a way to find railway talents, can I understand this?"

"You still have to seize the time to choose the address, but all of this must be demonstrated by many talents, that is to say, you must form a real expert group to help you do this, and there is such a power The only institution in the world is the National Academy of Sciences.”

What Lin Zexu said made Zhang Zhidong suddenly realize.

"Oh! I see, that is to say, what we are doing now is just to let our steel company have a convenient place, right?"

"You are right, the first steel company had better be far away from the capital, but now that the country has an official road, according to the emperor, there will be a highway in the future, so everything we do now must We need to prepare for the future, and we are the first steel company in the empire, and we will carry out corresponding splits based on our foundation in the future, so our big brother must do very well."

Zhang Zhidong finally felt eager to try.

"Since that's the case, after the banquet tonight is over, we'll go to Prime Minister Wang together tomorrow, what do you think?"

"Of course we have to do this, and we'd better go directly to the State Council to find him, but don't bring anything. Our prime minister, Minister Wang, is not a corrupt official. If we just bring a bunch of things, maybe things will be difficult to handle." gone."

"Then what do you mean by being a man? I heard that being a man now means giving gifts?"

"You are corrupt, and the current interim law also has clear regulations on this, so we choose to go to the State Council to find him without bringing anything, which is naturally the best, but there is one thing that must be absolutely done , that is, we have to let them see that we are really doing something."

It seems that this matter is not as simple as imagined, and Zhang Zhidong once taught everyone a lesson, so he has a good impression of everyone, but it is really unknown how everyone's impression of her is. up.

"It seems that this matter still needs you to help me go and find a way to find out the tone of our Prime Minister, Minister Wang."

Lin Zexu laughed again when he heard this statement.

"We are building the country, there are not so many detours, I mean you need to walk around with them frequently, instead of staying at home all day long, so that everyone will think you are very noble, and now The officialdom in Chang'an City doesn't look as dark as we thought, that is to say, as long as there is such a diligent emperor here, and there are these two absolute ministers, there will be absolutely no chaos in our empire, so You just need to maintain a good relationship in front of them, and make sure they feel that you are seizing every moment to develop the empire from the bottom of your heart."

"What are you talking about? I just wanted to build the land well, otherwise why would I discuss this matter with you again at such a late hour."

After Zhang Zhidong heard this sentence, he was a little unhappy.

"Haha! I know that it doesn't matter what you think in your heart now, as long as you are from the bottom of your heart, they can see it, but for the kind of minister who deceives and likes to flatter, they will definitely know it at a glance. It can be seen that our empire does not seem to have any traitors, it is because of these two people and the emperor's piercing eyes, otherwise our such a big land would have collapsed long ago."
