the world is at stake

"You brought your friends to China?"

"Ah...these are the fiancées of our classmates."

Day, fiancée?Study, work and life are correct!

The current Chinese international students are all excellent, and those who are responsible for social sciences and business management need to get in touch with different groups of people. They have high intelligence and high EQ, and it is easy to hook up with girls.

The embassy in Germany regularly holds party group meetings, and also hopes that overseas students will contribute to strengthening the friendship between China and Europe-finding a Western wife in the university is equivalent to kidnapping more talents to come back.

The more they talked, the more Lenin and others felt the complexity of the world situation and the strength of the bourgeoisie.

The trainee officers of the Russian Communist Party's "Blox" majored in the development of international military science in Germany. It must be mentioned that in recent years, due to continuous breakthroughs in technologies such as metallurgy, machinery, power and chemical engineering, weapons, equipment, strategies and tactics have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Even in Tsarist Russia, where serfdom had not yet been completely eliminated, Emperor Pu's "Holy Alliance" promoted the technological revolution and greatly strengthened the power of the bureaucracy and the bourgeoisie.

The second industrial revolution provided more employment and management positions, and even the bottom of society had the opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief and get a class jump.

Productivity is improving, and the lives of the army, workers, and peasants are improving.There is more food, more steel, more coal, the number of social commodities has increased by more than ten times, and commercial circulation has become more frequent.

Those at the top are richer and more powerful, and if they leak a little from their fingers, the bottom will be grateful.In the past one or two years, the contradictions between upper and lower classes in Russia have tended to ease.

In the eyes of Tsar Nicholas II, he was more loved by the people, the revenue of the treasury had increased several times, bureaucratic corruption seemed to be reduced, the operation efficiency was higher, and the army was stronger.

Even the arrogant and arrogant Tsarist Russian bureaucrats have relaxed their consistent high-pressure policy and become more tolerant, willing to accept criticism from the bottom, and from time to time arrest a few corrupt officials who are greatly angered by the public, to show their justice and rule legitimacy.

The bureaucracy and the bourgeoisie are getting closer and everything is getting better.

Lenin was often confused when analyzing the international and domestic situation in recent years, until he was assassinated and injured last year and had to go to Germany for medical treatment.What he saw was another country that was developing more rapidly.

The armored forces that the Kaiser was proud of did not shock Lenin, but the 330 kV high-voltage transmission and transformation grid gave him a huge shock.

Materialists have to think about how this power grid will lead to changes in productivity and production relations.

According to Bazel I, only seven or eight high-voltage power grids are enough to cover Germany, and factories can produce more high-quality and cheap goods, and every German can benefit from this.

Macroscopically, although the German economic growth rate in recent years does not take off at 20.00% like China's, there is always [-]%. The "Germany" candidates also pay attention to changing the social distribution and avoiding excessive blood-sucking of the bottom by big capital.

Now the German people's love for the Kaiser is almost fanatical, and it is difficult for any external force to shake it.As long as ordinary people can live on, no one wants to take the risk of beheading to rebel.

This kind of social change greatly increased the power of the "Mensheviks" of the Russian Communist Party, which was engaged in bourgeois reform, and even other political groups in Tsarist Russia also gathered around Nicholas II and sang praises in cheers.

The Russian army received more salaries, and the already insufficient revolutionary will was also disintegrating, and the possibility of the success of the Russian Communist Party's "Bolt" riots was decreasing.

Lenin couldn't sit still, he had to go back to save the party he founded and the cause of the revolution.

Because unorganized workers are easily corrupted and drawn in by the bourgeoisie who have mastered advanced productive forces with small favors, and cannot become a working class with combat effectiveness.

The Russian Communist Party 'B' must prevent it from gaining an overwhelming advantage before the bureaucracy and the bourgeoisie are completely united, launch an uprising as soon as possible, and establish a proletarian regime.Otherwise, the tsar's ruling will only become more and more consolidated.

While the train was running, Lenin fell into deep thought in his soft sleeper compartment.The current situation in China tells him that the proletariat can indeed be the master of the country.But how to deal with the chaotic international situation after taking power?

The Russian Communist Party's top brass must admit that they have no experience in this area.

When Lenin was worried about the cause of the revolution, his opponent, Vladimir Puteri, yelled and cursed in the city hall of St. Petersburg, "Can those embezzlers stop being so blatant? Can't they even make false accounts?"

Because of promoting industrial construction and social reform, Emperor Puteri was deeply trusted by Nicholas II. His current position is Minister of the Interior and mayor of the capital of St. Petersburg.

In the magnificent city hall, several officials in charge of auditing trembled, fearing that they would be sent to prison by His Excellency Vladimir in the next second.But they are really suffering, because the loopholes in the accounts are too big to cover up.

In 1916, the winter in St. Petersburg was particularly cold.The railway department reported that more than [-] steam locomotives had been damaged by freezing due to the low temperature, and the railway capacity plummeted.

This makes it more difficult to transport food and fuel to cities.

Even in the capital, St. Petersburg, many factories stopped working due to lack of fuel.The factory owners complained, and the workers couldn't get their wages, cold and hungry, full of anger.

The women stood in line for hours in the cold for their food rations, and driven by hunger they openly looted bakeries.

Pu Dadi was so devastated by this that he had to go to the Railway Bureau to transfer locomotives from other places to increase railway capacity.At the same time, he also checked...

Didn't it mean that the steam locomotive was frozen?

What about the broken locomotive?

Gotta show me a dead body.

The bureaucrats of the railway department immediately reported that most of the broken locomotives could not be repaired and had been sent to the steel factory to be melted into molten iron.

Oh... that means it's gone.

Similar to the fire dragon burning the warehouse.

Pu Dadi felt that his IQ had been insulted, and was furious.He couldn't bear it anymore, and ordered a group of bureaucrats from the railway department to be arrested and investigated on the spot.

Good guy, if you don't check the accounts, you will be fine, and there are holes everywhere.

In order to keep the Tsarist Russian regime from collapsing, Britain and France have provided loans to Emperor Pu the Great in recent years.The United Kingdom alone provides 500 million pounds a month, with a total of more than [-] million pounds, which is much more generous than that given to Little Japan.

France was even more generous, lending more than 600 billion francs, equivalent to £24 billion.Spending so much money is to ensure that Germany is always under attack from both sides and cannot move randomly.

The strong inflow of foreign capital gave Pu Dadi a huge space to show his talents.He introduced a large number of factories from Britain, France and the United States to expand employment, improve the industrial capabilities of Tsarist Russia, and carry out more in-depth social reforms.

The annual output of Russian steel has soared to 1000 million tons, which looks beautiful.But after checking now, more than 2000 steam locomotives were scrapped due to a low temperature, and they disappeared without a trace.

deceive who?

This is a typical loss of state-owned assets.

The technique is still so rough, there is no cover-up at all, just write a scrap on the account, and then the product is gone.

"Because the railroads don't have the capacity, the workers are starving, the children are freezing, the coal from the mines can't get out, and the grain from the farms is rotting.

Tell me, where the hell are these damn locomotives? "

Emperor Pu widened his eyes and glared at the investigating officer in front of him.But these guys all drooped their heads and just kept silent, and no one would speak.

After a long time, an elderly bureaucrat whispered: "Your Excellency Vladimir, this kind of thing can't be investigated, it can only be regarded as normal wear and tear. You can directly ask the locomotive factory to produce another [-] locomotives.

In addition, coal and food are actually available, but they need some special channels and slightly higher prices.Ordinary people can live with patience. "

Pu Dadi was even more furious, "Could it be that our annual steel production of 1000 million tons is a good-looking figure, and it's only true on the report. In fact, it can't stand the investigation at all, can it?"

The old bureaucrat let out a 'ah', "The production is 1000 million tons, there is no doubt about it. But... the loss is a bit large. Your Excellency, you really don't need to make such a big fuss, Britain and France will compensate us, they need us. "

Pu Dadi was annoyed.

Britain and France deceived people all over the world, but they were deceived when they went to Tsarist Russia.

Author's Note: The Russian Revolution is very complicated. In fact, it was a bit of luck that Lenin's Russian Communist Party 'B' came to power.

Chapter 08 The man is back

Pu Dadi scolded the same for half an hour, but he could only tell the officials in charge of auditing to leave his office.He knew that the bureaucratic system of Tsarist Russia was like a rotten log riddled with holes, with fat, white moths living in countless rotten and smelly holes.

This rotten wood is still extremely fragile, it will be soft and shattered when touched, and it may collapse at any time.However, it is still huge, and if it falls down, it will crush the surrounding buildings and land.

All Pu Dadi can do is to knock a circle of protective piles around the rotten wood to barely maintain its stability.The moths in the rotten wood found new wood and climbed onto the protective piles to continue eating.

As a reformer, he is destined to face the invasion of these moths.

It has been seven years since Pu Dadi worked as a paper-maker in Tsarist Russia.The court, nobles, army, and bureaucrats all know the importance of him and his team to the country.

But the moths should eat or eat, and they will not stop at all.

If anyone dares to block the moth's way of making money, they will not hesitate to launch an attack-"Holy Alliance" has had 12 people assassinated in the past seven years, and five people died.

Even Emperor Pu himself encountered danger many times.His response is to suppress hard after taking power, and try his best to remove any stumbling blocks to reform.

Brackets - some stumbling blocks are too big, and even Nicholas II is behind them.This kind is not called a 'stumbling block', but a 'flawed friend'.

The tough suppression of the bureaucracy has indeed achieved very good results, and it has strongly promoted social change.But after the 'Holy Alliance' took power, Nicholas II promoted several other powerful figures out of the emperor's checks and balances.

At the same time, some of the chosen ones are corrupt, willing to be hunted by businessmen and capitalists, and become new power and money grabbers—the reality is so complicated.

After getting angry, Emperor Pu sat in the office alone.He can't let his subordinates see his weak side.He has to be tough and act like he can do anything and solve any problem.

But just sitting in the office can't understand the actual situation.

If it weren't for the unconcealable adverse effects of the low temperature in St. Petersburg in winter, Emperor Puteri would have no idea that the railway department had sold the precious steam locomotives.

It's not a one-day sell, it's been going on for about five years.

The railway department makes a report every year to apply for new locomotives, carriages, and rails.As long as the damage rate and scrap rate are slightly adjusted, all procedures are legitimate.

Most of the benefit improvement brought about by technological innovation is wiped out by the increase in loss.For example, the production of iron and steel has increased to 1000 million tons per year, but the actual usage may only be 800 million tons.

Tsk... Emperor Pu smiled wryly at himself, and secretly said: "800 million tons may be an overestimate. If I really look down, the actual value will definitely make me want to kill all the officials in the government."

Where did these losses go?

Needless to say?There is nowhere else but China.

The mileage of railways in China has increased rapidly in recent years, and there must be products from Tsarist Russia among the laid steel rails and sleepers.

The borers in St. Petersburg can be sold at half price, because the Russian government has paid for these goods-the borers can make 100 yuan and cost the country 100 million.

As for the issue of the system, that is a trivial matter.Maybe the rails coming out of the rolling mill and the locomotives coming out of the locomotive factory are customized according to China's requirements.

Pu Dadi flipped through the list of suspects in his hand, wondering which ones he had to shoot to scare the moths—there was a knock on the office door, and the confidential secretary walked in.

"Your Excellency, there is a diplomatic telegram from the imperial capital of China, and it is to be sent to you by name. The sender's name is Victor."

Hearing the name 'Victor', Emperor Pu's face turned black.But he couldn't help but read it, and reached out for the telegram, and after glancing at it, he burst into anger.

The first sentence of the message reads, "There is no need to be too serious about the normal grain trade between the two countries."

With a bang, Pu Dadi, who is a black belt in judo, slapped the table with a bang.The confidential secretary seemed to have known that this situation would happen, and retreated to the office door after handing in the message, so as not to be affected.

The person who sent the telegram was naturally Zhou Qingfeng, describing the matter of China importing agricultural products from Ukraine.

In Tsarist Russia, not only steel products flowed towards China, but agricultural products were no exception.Ukrainian rich peasants have long found it more stable to sell their grain to China.

Chinese businessmen will show up at Odessa Port in Ukraine on time every year, arrange shipping by themselves, and pay in cash without default.They also brought a wide range of unique goods to rich peasants in Ukraine.

From toys to cloth to clothing, from lamps to flashlights to household medicines.

Does the mistress of the rich farm want an agitator or front-loading washing machine?Electric drive, saving time and effort.

Do you want electric fans, electric kettles, gramophones, radios, etc.?Add a little modern interest and color to your life.

Is the mill still using animal power?Too far behind.Change the motor, the processing efficiency can be increased by ten times, and the trouble of raising livestock is also avoided.

Animal power is no longer needed for farming, so change to a tractor.The latest fifty-horsepower diesel tractor has low fuel consumption, abundant power, and is particularly easy to use and maintain.One person can easily plant a thousand acres of land.

The tractors are all used, and the water pump cannot be left behind.In addition, rice transplanters, sprayers, harvesters, and threshers should also be equipped.Don't forget about pesticides and fertilizers, and agriculture needs to be modernized.

No electricity?Then it is equipped with a diesel generator and a large-capacity lead-acid battery.Technology is changing life, hurry up and catch up with the wave of the second industrial revolution.

The Chinese government announced that its grain output has exceeded 2000 million tons, but they can at least get another [-] million tons of staple grain from Southeast Asia or other places, and use trade to earn back the money for buying grain.

There is a tendency for Chinese goods to spread globally.This kind of trade can be tolerated by other countries, but Tsarist Russia cannot.Puteri also hoped to use industrial and agricultural scissors to obtain grain from Ukraine at a low price.

But under the same technical conditions, the light industrial products of the Moscow factory just couldn't compete with China.Not only are they more expensive, they are also of inferior quality.

Pu Dadi was very annoyed by this, and went to a certain vehicle factory to investigate in person.After discovering that the door handle of the newly manufactured truck would break when he pulled it, he reluctantly admitted that although there is technology, Russia has no effective quality management.

Management is invisible and intangible, but it actually affects industrial development and determines the fate of the country.

The Chinese seem to be more flexible than the Russians, and they are willing to think about it in order to make money.For example, one day Emperor Pu went to the house of Prince Yusupov as a guest and found that the decoration of his new house was full of ultra-modern style.

Large balconies, oversized windows, soft carpets, white walls, bright lights, and ergonomic furniture, even the toilets in the bathrooms are replaced with ceramic ones.

The house is divided by function, which is simple and clear.This is by no means the style with a heavy sense of history in the red tape of the old aristocrats. The dark wood material is almost invisible, and it is all replaced by light-colored glass and metal.

If you ask carefully, these decoration materials and plans come from China.

If you ask more carefully, Chinese businessmen find that American families are getting richer and richer, and the rich in the United States are also at a point where they don't know how to spend their money.

The Yankees urgently need a new aristocratic style that gets rid of the old European style, to show its different image, but also to have enough style - so the Chinese "civil dogs" specially developed the "post-modern" decoration style for this market .

All the selected ones were fooled by the "Holy Light" show--it's competition between major powers, why don't you come here for decoration?

But it just happened like that.

When the Rockefeller family took the lead in trying out the "modern light and agile style", the rich Americans immediately flocked to it and handed over the money to the door of the decoration company opened by the Chinese.

This is an outlet that the 'Brotherhood' didn't grab, but was run ahead by the 'Holy Light'.

But with the emergence of words such as 'sunshine, natural, atmospheric', Yankees felt for the first time that they had surpassed old Europe in terms of fashion, which even changed their dressing style.

Because the Chinese launched several very popular fashion brands.

Different decoration grades are suitable for different families, and there are several big books dedicated to the "modern" decoration style-in short, this new market involving millions of families has made China very profitable and is rapidly spreading to Europe.

According to a survey by The Wall Street Journal, direct or indirect door-to-door sales and home improvement by the Chinese provided 50 jobs, with an annual net profit of more than one billion US dollars.

This profit shocked the Yankees. No one thought that community direct sales could make so much money.Many consortiums followed suit and wanted to enter the market, but finally found that it was not as simple as hiring a group of people to drive a car to deliver goods to the community.

Procurement, logistics, warehousing and after-sales are all simple.
