"I remember that this place is also newly built. It should be built by businessmen from the Windsor Empire, but why do you want to re-build the entrance and exit? Don't you have too much money to spend?"
Prince Ding saw that everything around him was newly built in the first aisle. Although Gao Shaoyi was a bit extravagant in doing things, he was also very strict about spending money. After all, there would be more places to spend money in the future.
"Back to the prince, it used to be a passage for passengers to enter and exit, but it was not suitable for the military's entry and exit, so we demolished it and rebuilt it. It is much more spacious than the original one and can accommodate two cars going back and forth. That's why we spent this money.
If there is an emergency, the original passage cannot accommodate the entry and exit of our troops."
Li Kunyi said carefully, this person is not only our prince's biological uncle, but also his father's old superior. When Prince Ding came to Haicheng, Gao Shaoyi thought of letting Li Kunyi accompany him throughout the whole process. Li Zhongtang also meant the same.
Prince Kun Yi Heding is also familiar, and there is no trouble in communicating between the two.
When Prince Ding spoke just now, he was still a little dissatisfied. Although he hated these foreigners, the facilities built by the foreigners were still so new that there was no need to demolish and rebuild them. What's more, the current suppressive army did not have that much money, but after hearing this
After Li Kunyi's explanation, the old prince nodded. The current situation is unstable and everything should be done for the military. Gao Shaoyi did the right thing.
"The signboard on this street..."
After Prince Ding came out of the station, he found that the signboards on the street were different from before. In the past, the signboards on the street were in various languages in various countries. It was very convenient for foreigners, but it was very difficult for us.
People in the empire don't know many foreign languages. If it were English, many people would be able to recognize it, but if it were the language of other countries, I'm afraid we wouldn't have that many foreign language speakers.
"Going back to the prince, this was also rectified at the end of last year. All merchants operating in Haicheng, no matter which country you are from or what agreement you signed, starting from the end of last year, all signboards must be replaced, and
Only the two languages are allowed to be retained, and one of the languages must be Chinese characters. If it cannot be done, or if it resists rectification, then the anti-lunder army authorities have the right to prevent him from opening the door."
Li Kunyi said very proudly that such a thing is very simple to say, but if you want these foreign businessmen to cooperate, it will be extremely difficult. Local officials in Haicheng have also proposed in the past that they hope these foreign businessmen can
They set up signs with Chinese characters, but they were quickly pushed back by these people. They thought it was not necessary. If you need it, you will start to learn our country's characters. It can be regarded as a kind of cultural export.
Gao Shaoyi could see clearly what they meant at a glance, so he used strict orders to require these people to make corrections immediately. Unless you are willing to not make money every day, if you close the door, you can use whichever language you want to use, Zhenlu
The military authorities will not make excessive demands.
"This rule is very good. In the land of our Daqian Empire, we have to use our Chinese characters. These foreigners used to be so arrogant, but you can make them change it to this level. It shows that you are really treating them
I’m so scared.”
Prince Ding nodded with a smile. This was once what Prince Ding had to do, but he had no choice but to use all his strength and even asked the court for help. These foreign businessmen were indifferent because at that time we could not They took tough measures. If tough measures were taken against them, a war might occur at any time. For the Daqian Empire at that time, war with foreigners was tantamount to seeking death.
"We have also set up a special court in Haicheng. The special court is different from ordinary courts and is specially used to hear cases of foreigners. If foreigners bully us, ordinary people can go directly to the special court to report the case. We will report the case within 48 hours. The case will be investigated within 72 hours and the case will be heard within 72 hours.”
As soon as Li Kun saw that the old prince was very interested, he told all these things. Maybe the old prince could provide some valuable opinions.
After listening to Li Kunyi's introduction, Prince Ding didn't seem to believe it, so he was going to drive to the special court to have a look. He couldn't just listen to what you said, he had to see the real thing. This is what Prince Ding has always said. Style of doing things.
The special court in Haicheng does not hold court meetings so frequently these days, mainly because many foreigners know how to live their lives. If the old way is still the same, it is estimated that people will come to the special court every two days. Come here It doesn't matter, but here they really dare to impose sentences. No matter which country you are from, or how important you are in which country, as long as you have made a mistake, everyone here will be treated equally, no matter what kind of person comes to punish you. The special courts are impartial and impartial in pronouncing sentences.
At the beginning, many foreign businessmen did not believe it, so many people took the initiative to provoke. Where have these people gone now? Depending on the crime they committed, they will either pay a part of the fine, or they will be sent directly to the rear to dig coal. , anyway, there are ways to punish them.
After arriving at the special court, Prince Ding found a place to stand. Fortunately, he had changed his clothes at this time. If it had been the original prince's clothes, everyone would have stopped looking at what was going on in the court and turned their heads to look at the prince.
Prince Ding listened with interest. This was a dispute between a citizen of the Daqian Empire and a foreign businessman. It was not a big deal, but he soon understood that the fault of the dispute lay with the people of the Daqian Empire. , so this guy also paid a fine of five silver coins.
In Prince Ding's mind, he thought that this special court was only for people from the Daqian Empire. He did not expect that things were very fair. No matter who made a mistake, he must accept punishment.
According to Li Kunyi's explanation, if you want long-term peace and stability, you must have a set of iron rules. If residents of the country commit crimes, they must act in accordance with the law. This is also an explanation to foreign businessmen. If If the residents of this country bully them wantonly, this part of the foreign capital will soon leave. It is not advisable to use your own money to develop the economy.
