Chapter Fourteen Tony

Several barrels of rice and meat and vegetable dishes were delivered directly to the venue. Each boy was given a big bowl. Han Yong shouted and asked the boys to line up and get rice one by one. The beauty had half a bowl of white rice, and a

A large spoonful of oily braised pork and a little vegetable vegetables can be added if not enough. Qiao Yu can clearly hear the sound of drooling.

In this era, it is considered good for most people to see some meat all year round. Even ordinary landowners cannot eat meat every day, let alone ordinary people. It is good to be able to eat dry rice every day. What's more

Many people work hard for half the year, and eat less for half the year. When the harvest is lean, they even have to dig up some wild vegetables to eat.

As for the dishes, they are even more limited. The vegetables grown at home are good if boiled with a little salt. There is almost no oil or the like. Even the poorer people just use salt water to dip some wild vegetables. Even so, they are not full.

, Although Sichuan is known as the land of abundance, the people's life is not good. As the saying goes, a half-grown boy will eat him to death. Now these young people are at the age where they can eat. There is no oil or water in their stomachs. It can be said that they are always half-starved.

I'm half full, how can I eat with my stomach open?

As soon as they saw the fragrant rice and large pieces of meat, the teenagers just tried their best to stuff their stomachs. A large bowl of food was eaten in a few minutes, and several large buckets of rice were quickly eaten. Braised pork

There was nothing left, but fortunately I had prepared it in advance, and the food was soon served again.

Han Yong looked at these young men eating crazily with emotion on his face: "Master, we never had such good food in the military camp. After eating this meal, I'm afraid these little brats will work for you.

It’s just that it costs too much, this meal alone requires two big fat pig bites!”

"I don't need anyone to sacrifice their lives for me. They are all people who have the power to decide their own destiny. They are the same as us. They are just unfortunate enough to live in this world and have to live a hard life. Only by changing this world can everyone enjoy the same life.

It is your birthright to live like a human being and no longer have to worry about hunger and food!”

Qian Tai was also very emotional on the side, "Young master, it has been the common people who have suffered from ancient times to the present. It would be good if you can stutter. Otherwise, what else can you do? How about rebellion? How fierce was the hairy riot in the first few decades?

Didn’t they get wiped out in the end? These young people are lucky to meet you!"

This has been the case in China for thousands of years. There has been little governance and many troubles. It is not uncommon in history to change one's sons for food. When will the dignified China truly escape from the vicious circle of rise, decline and chaos? When will the Chinese be able to stand proudly?

Above the world! Qiao Yu felt a heavy burden fell on him. As a time traveler, he must not waste the opportunity given to him by God.

"Brother Han, you should worry more about training. I have already formulated the training plan. I must strictly implement it and strive to quickly change the appearance of these young people. I don't ask to become a strong army, at least I want to

It can deal with ordinary bandits and bullies, as well as gangsters like Ge Laohui!"

"Don't worry, young master!" At this moment, a guard ran up to Qiao Yu.

"Boss, the prefect has sent someone to invite you over. He seems to be in a hurry and asks you to go immediately!"

Is Niu Chuanshan looking for him? Qiao Yu couldn't help but think about it. Although he didn't know what it was, he had to go if the governor wanted to summon him. Qiao Yu hurried straight to the government office. When he arrived at the prefect's office, he saw a master who was anxiously talking.

Waiting, when he saw Qiao Yu coming, he hurriedly took a few steps and whispered: "Master Qiao, the foreign master has come to trouble the prefect. He is from the British government. It seems because you keep buying German machines.

I don’t know why I’ve always invited you here, these foreigners are too fierce, you have to be careful!”

This master is already in his forties, but when he opened his mouth, it was you. It also made Qiao Yu laugh for a while, but then he couldn't laugh anymore. Today's Chinese people are so afraid of foreigners that a British guy comes.

It's really sad to be able to put everyone in a government office into panic...

Qiao Yu came to the main hall under the guidance of his master, and saw Niu Chuanshan drinking tea with a blond British guy, but the dignified prefect lowered his head slightly, just like a primary school student meeting his teacher. He should be as humble as possible.

Humility, while the Englishman looked arrogant, curling his lips and taking a sip of tea from time to time.

"Prefect Niu, your tea is too bitter and too dull. You can add some milk and sugar cubes. That would be better!"

"What the foreigner said makes sense, but the government office is simple. Please forgive me and treat you to tea next time!"

"Your Excellency, I would like to ask for a cup of coffee with a few cloves of garlic!" Qiao Yu came in at this time and said loudly. At first, the British man didn't seem to react, but then he heard the meaning in Qiao Yu's words.

The irony is that adding milk to tea is like adding garlic to coffee, and your face suddenly turns red.

"Sir, you are so rude. This is not the way to talk to a gentleman!"

"Indeed not, but you are not a gentleman either. The most basic thing between people is respect. Your country can have your own way of drinking tea, but don't forget that China is the home of tea, with a history of more than a thousand years.

No one is better at discerning the true meaning of life from a few leaves than the Chinese. If you ignore even this bit of common sense, you are arrogant!"

The British man heard it clearly, but he didn't know how to refute it, because that was the fact. He was not shameless enough to tell lies with his eyes open, and he had never seen any Chinese who dared to argue with the British, that is, those

Senior officials were as polite as possible, but the man in front of him seemed to have no regard for the British Empire at all. What an anomaly!

Although Niu Chuanshan could not understand English, he could guess what was going on by looking at the expressions of the two of them. Sweat broke out on his face. He complained in his heart that Qiao Yu was young and energetic, and hurriedly smoothed things over.

"Master foreigner, calm down and calm down. Nephew Qiao, this is Mr. Tony from the consulate. I want to talk to you about the factory. Business is important!"

Although Tony wanted to cause trouble, he didn't want to argue over such a meaningless matter, so he managed to calm down.

"Mr. Qiao, I heard that your factory purchased German machinery. This is a very bad thing and will destroy the friendship between us. I hope you can make the right choice!"

When Qiao Yu heard that this British guy actually threatened him directly, it was a bit too much. It is true that the Yangtze River Basin is the British sphere of influence, but this is not different from a direct colony, and this division of spheres of influence is more for the railway.

The power goes away. Buying some German machines is completely ordinary business behavior. Even if the British are jealous, they cannot blatantly interfere!

"Mr. Tony, the factories I built are all civilian factories, and the sales and purchases are all ordinary textile machines. Obviously, they have no impact on the relationship between the two countries. What you are doing is too overbearing!"

"Chongqing is of great significance to the British Empire. The wanton introduction of German machines is naturally a threat to Britain. There is nothing to say about this. There is a saying in China that you should step back from the brink, otherwise you will regret it!"

"Mr. Tony, do you want me to stop the factory? If that's what you mean, I can definitely do it, but within one day you will see all the newspapers on the front page with the headline, Violence in Britain

By suppressing Chinese companies and wantonly undermining free trade, I believe that not only will there be a new wave of boycotts of British goods within China, but even other major powers will not be ashamed of your country's actions. Do you want to see this result?

?”

Qiao Yu didn't give in at all, but Tony felt a surge of rage in his heart. He was just an ordinary secretary in the consulate, and he had no ability to bear such a storm. Moreover, he was entrusted by others, thinking that his reputation as a British person was enough.

Asking the other party to compromise, even if they don't close the factory, they will also make some practical concessions, but they actually put themselves in an embarrassing situation.

Please give me some recommendation votes from all book friends. Hui will try his best to provide you with good stories. I also recommend Yangyang Daqing, which has a unique perspective. You can read it.
