Things like paying attention to the king usually happen in the prosperous dynasty. If you don’t obey orders, you will be settled by the fall, so you have to pay attention to the king.

Don’t think about it at the end of the dynasty. In the end of the dynasty, once someone rebelled, the local officials would not take the opportunity to cause trouble, even if they were educated properly, they would clean up the snow in front of their own doors and not care about the frost on others. As long as their territory was not messy, they would be considered to be a contribution to the state dynasty. If the barbers during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were not responsible for defending their territory and could not stay out of the matter, they would not fight against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

If you see the map of the country clearly, you will know that it is actually very simple to attack the Qing Dynasty. When Dagukou landed, it was heading straight to the capital. The local governors could not react at all, and the capital was broken. Another time and space Eight-Nation Alliance did this. Even the governors in Jiangnan could not help at that time. There were no high-speed trains or even green trains these days. The Qing government wanted to transfer troops from Jiangnan to the capital. It would be said that it would be fast to walk on the road for half a year.

Since there are so many lessons, there are not many choices left for Yan Shun. Although on the surface, the garrison troops near the Qing Dynasty capital must be the strongest in the country, the strongest depends on whom. Compared with the farmers who rebelled in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the combat power may be considered strong, but compared with the fully trained mercenaries, this combat power can only be considered loose. Strictly speaking, Li Mu did not understand how strong the Qing army was in this era. However, referring to the performance of the Qing army in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-185, Wu, Li Mu is still full of confidence in the mercenaries. As long as the tactics are right and the battle is quick, it is not difficult to solve the old and young people in the capital.

Although the Qing army defeated the French not long ago, only Li Mu knew that this should be the final victory of the Qing Empire. The Qing Empire is now the end of the road, and it may not be enough to describe it as a long-lasting end. It is more appropriate to describe it as a long-term battle. The Sino-Japanese War in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 is the first time in the world that a country defeated the iron-clad ship head-on with a wooden shell warship. The Qing Empire is the tragic background board on Japan's Ukiyo-e. Even if Li Zhongtang has three heads and six arms, it is impossible for one person to fight against a country. What's more, Yan Shun is secretly contacting Li Zhongtang. At that time, Yan Shun rebelled. Maybe how would Li Zhongtang choose? Facing the Japanese, Li Zhongtang can fight to the end. Facing the Chinese, can Li Zhongtang still be so stubborn?

uncertain.

"The scope of activity of thunder has always been south of the Yangtze River. Jiangbei is very quiet now. The Qing Empire has no preparations. In order to suppress the thunder riots, the Qing Empire even transferred the most elite Beiyang naval army to Jiangnan. This is a good signal. We should seize the opportunity now." Lawrence Lucas knew the Qing Empire very well, and of course it may also be that Lawrence Lucas' early activities played a role.

Sometimes, some words are really impossible to say so clearly. Although Lord Zhongtang did not make any promises to Yan Shun, the Beiyang Navy had been transferred to Jiangnan. I don’t know when this transfer will be returned. It is estimated that it will be delayed until the Lei Haobo riot is completely quelled. Once the capital changes, the Beiyang Navy will not fly back even if it has wings.

"Don't worry, Leo is contacting the US Embassy in Qing Dynasty. We want to achieve the greatest profit at the lowest cost. We are a little patient. It is not that easy to subvert a country, especially a country like the Qing Empire." Li Mu is really not anxious. In recent years, Li Mu is definitely experienced in subverting a country, but it is the first time Li Mu has dealt with such a huge country as the Qing Dynasty. Let's take it easy.

"Subverting a country" sounds terrifying, but it is not difficult. Look at Africa in the 21st century. It is only easier to subvert a country with just a few hundred people in the 19th century than the 21st century.

Of course, it will never be easy to subvert a country like the Qing Empire. How long did the United States take to kill the Russians? It took decades, but the Russians themselves made mistakes and gave Americans the opportunity.

"Embassy - Do we want to send mercenaries directly to the Qing Dynasty?" Lawrence Lucas asked casually. Bai Qi did not hide the large-scale training of mercenaries in Ryukyu without hiding it. Of course, Lawrence Lucas knew that even the Qing government should know it, but even if he knew it, the Qing government could not interfere. Now Ryukyu is an independent country.

"What mercenaries? No, there are no mercenaries at all. Even if the Qing Empire coup broke out, it was still an internal affairs of the Qing Dynasty and had nothing to do with us." Li Mu would definitely not admit that there were mercenaries, and the US Embassy would not admit that the skin color of the Japanese and Chinese was similar, that is, the Japanese were a little shorter, but in the chaos, who would pay attention to this issue?

"Haha, I can only regret that city. I have to admit that the capital of the Qing Empire is really a charming city." Lawrence Lucas has been to the capital of the Qing Kingdom. That city left a good impression on Lawrence Lucas. Of course, a large part of it is flattery. You cannot expect an American businessman to appreciate oriental buildings full of classical beauty.

Li Mu heard Lawrence Lucas but did not react at all, and his expression was not good-looking.

To be honest, there is no need for Lawrence Lucas to do this. Although Li Mu is a Chinese and the capital of the Qing Dynasty does occupy a very important position in Li Mu's heart, it is really impossible to say that if you like it, Li Mu doesn't like that city, and that city is not the turn of Chinese people to like it. When the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, all Han people were sent to the outer city. The inner city lived in the bannermen and the eight Han banners. So Li Mu really didn't mind using violent means to occupy the capital of the Qing Dynasty. Without breaking the old class, he would not be able to determine the new order.

"Put your focus on Vladivostok, this place will be a very charming city in the future." Li Mu no longer thinks about the mess in Qing Dynasty. Even if he has a headache, Yan Shun should get the headache. It has nothing to do with Li Mu. Li Mu only wants to gain more living space for the Chinese. Even if Yan Shun overthrew the Qing government's rule, the Chinese in the Qing Dynasty did not accept Yan Shun, then Li Mu would bring Yan Shun back to the United States. Anyway, no matter who is on stage, the interests belonging to Li Mu will not be less.

"There are too many Russian elements here. Fortunately, the Vladivostok government is gradually changing this. To be honest, I don't like Russian architecture, but I agree with what you said just now. Vladivostok will also be a very charming city in the future." Lawrence Lucas depreciated for a long time, and in the end he flattered. This has nothing to do with Li Mu being a Chinese. When needed, white people will also flatter, and it is not much inferior to Chinese.

Every time I come to Vladivostok, Vladivostok always surprises Li Mu. The last time I came to Vladivostok, the pier in Vladivostok had not started to be expanded. Although the expansion has not been completed, the main project has been basically completed. After the expansion is completed, Vladivostok will be the largest port in the Far East, and this city will also integrate multiple architectural styles. Although the Vladivostok government consciously demolished some buildings left by the Russian era, it still retained those with a strong Russian style. Now with the design of Lei, Vladivostok future buildings will use more oriental architectural styles, including the newly built Vladivostok government, which are all weighing whether to use Baroque marble buildings or traditional oriental eaves and flying arches.

This time when Li Mu came to Vladivostok, he moved into the Governor's Office left by the former Governor of East and West Siberia. During the time when Li Mu was not in Vladivostok, Chen Guofang electrified the Governor's Office. Now the Governor's Office has an independent power supply system, and searchlights are installed in the guardhouse. There is even a separate telegraph room in the castle, which can be used for Li Mu to contact the United States at any time. Although the telegraph has to be turned on several times along the way, it is a world of difference compared to the previous communication methods.

As November approaches, it is already cold outside the castle, and the heating system inside the castle is as warm as spring. Chuxue takes the children to bed early, while Gloria is still waiting for Li Mu.

"How is the banquet? Are there any surprises?" Gloria did not attend the dinner, which was not considered rude. Now no one accused Li Mu of being rude. That was the most rude behavior.

"Of course surprises won't happen often. Everything is normal. There is a few good news. Do you want to hear it?" Li Mu usually doesn't talk about work with Gloria. This is Li Mu's habit. Not bringing work back to the family. Some things that let Gloria know will only add to Gloria's worries.

"I don't want to listen. It's good news for you. It's not certain for me, but I have prepared a check. If I need it, I'll be ready for the aftermath." Gloria really didn't want to ask about Li Mu's work, but Gloria knew what Li Mu was doing. Of course, the aftermath here could be done. Gloria controlled the charity fund in her hands. This was also considered to be another way for Gloria to accumulate blessings for Little Will and Little Cotton Jacket.

It’s not okay to not accumulate blessings. Sometimes I have to say that there is God’s will in the dark. Li Mu never believed in these things before, but now sometimes he will go to church and try to feel the breath of God. This does not mean that Li Mu converts, but can only be considered to seek inner comfort. Of course, Li Mu also has some private requests. Li Mu is already several years old, but his family has no children to import. This is not normal. If possible, Li Mu still hopes to have more children and grandchildren. Otherwise, Li Mu will not make much sense to fight so hard. He has already earned enough money that Li Mu and Little Will spend ten lifetimes, and it is meaningless to earn more.

In the previous life, Li Mu heard some people say "making money is meaningless" and "a hundred million is just a small goal". Li Mu felt that he couldn't understand it. He didn't pretend that way. Now Li Mu also has this feeling. No matter how much money he earns, actually he did not increase much happiness. On the contrary, with more and more people relying on the Junma Group to live, Li Mu's pressure became heavier and heavier. Sometimes Li Mu thought about it, it was the happiest period when he first came to the United States to live at Will's house.

This sounds a bit pretentious, but it hurts people in fact that it is very painful to say it thoroughly. For most people, 100 million is out of reach, but for the richest family, 100 million is really nothing. It is already a lot for ordinary people to earn 500 yuan a day, but the richest people can earn more than 500 million yuan a day. For ordinary people, is 100 yuan really a lot?

Of course, for people who "don't give me 100 yuan", there may be a lot.

"This time your charity fund is definitely not enough. It depends on the situation and there will be a chance." Li Mu did not object to Gloria doing charity. Gloria could generously donate to Luzons, let alone Chinese people. After the Qing government was overthrown, Gloria would have opportunities to do charity, which is also an alternative version of returning home in glory.

Last year, Gloria and Laura's foundations spent nearly 10 million US dollars in the United States and launched nearly 100 charity projects, a large part of which were faced with Chinese people, because new immigrants who had just arrived in the United States really needed help.

Now, after the Qing government is overthrown, Gloria can go directly to the Qing Empire to do charity. Li Mu even helped Gloria think of a charity project.

Yes, the charity project that Li Mu helped Gloria determine was education. The Qing Empire was established for more than 200 years, and the strictest control should be the education industry. Li Mu knew very well that if possible, the Qing government would never want Chinese people to receive any education. It would be best that all Chinese people would become obedient people of the Qing government for generations under the Qing government's policy of fooling the people.

Under this premise, don’t expect the Qing government to invest in the education industry. The Qing Dynasty does have some modern schools now, but it is also forced by the situation. Most modern schools are military academies. The officers trained are also to maintain the rule of the Qing government. In order to open up schools with wisdom, there is no one in the country with more than 10 million square kilometers.

In fact, Li Mu's requirements are not high. Although Li Mu and Rockefeller are both very rich, the Gloria and the Laura Foundation are not able to establish a complete education system for the Qing Dynasty. This requires the joint efforts of all Chinese people. It takes decades to achieve results. Funds are secondary. These days, the rich people in the Qing Dynasty are not as unkind as described in literary and artistic works. After becoming rich, there are more people who pave the way for their hometowns. Most of the most common charity studies in the Qing Dynasty were established by the rich. As long as there is an open policy above, some people will be willing to contribute to their neighbors. Chinese people are really not stingy.

Of course, Li Mu definitely does not want the evil deeds of the charity industry in the Republic in the 21st century to be repeated in this time and space. Those who do evil on the excuse of charity are not the greatest evil of corruption and waste, but the innocent harm of truly generous people. If they follow Li Mu's standards, those people should be sent to court for trial on the charge of attempted murder, killing what should be killed and what should be stopped.
