C3530 Proposal by the Qing San Ye

He was skilled! This question had a certain level of skill to it!

The eyes of Jiu Shuai, Li Hongzhang and the rest, who had never talked about living, lit up, no one expected that the His Majesty would actually have such skills.

There was a care in the world when it came to the art of manipulation. It was best not to let the subject master grasp the rhythm. It would be terrible if the subordinate said whatever he wanted to say.

Tongzhi had just returned, he did not know the details of the court affairs, but he still wanted to know the actual situation of the Great Qing.

What should he do? If you want to know the truth, you will have to face all sorts of problems and difficulties, but does the Tongzhi Emperor have the ability to solve all these problems right now?

It was obvious that he didn't have it. He didn't even know if the questions and difficulties that the people below were talking about were true or not!

Haven't there been many subjects that have deceived the Emperor since ancient times? Wasn't it normal for people who worked in a company to cheat their bosses!?

Therefore, the best way for Emperor Tongzhi to deal with this situation was for someone to propose a solution to solve the problem, and that wasn't necessarily the case. There had to be at least two ways to resolve the problem.

Today, you, Fu Qing, suggested a quota of seven million, and Lian Xing used the excuse that he didn't have enough money to refute you. I can't wait for your superiors to get the solution, what if your superiors solve the problem for you?

So, Tongzhi directly kicked a ball to ask Fu Qing for a solution. This was the best response!

The officials could tell that Tongzhi was already on the right path with just one look. Although his wrist was a little rough, he did take the right path, and the direction was not wrong!

"Seems like Xiao Letian has truly taught them something!" It seems that he is not a complete scam of His Majesty! The road of learning is indeed the path of maturing a person! "

Fu Qing had trained himself to become a Heaven Saint Master, he had long prepared for the Emperor's plan. "Your Majesty, if the whole Qing Dynasty can send a telegram to all the counties, there's no need for this humble subject to mention the benefits, but the country's tight on money is also a big problem …"

"This subject has thought it over carefully. If I want to spend less than half of my money, it will just be a matter of time. I have a few solutions that His Majesty can choose from!"

"The first is to change the system! That's right, the telegraph line that the Great Clear Telegraph Office cultivate are actually all following the official route forward! "

"At the very beginning, someone attacked this humble official, saying that once the telegraph was completed, all the postmen in the world would be left without food, wouldn't they? Don't force another King Chuang to rebel! "

"Looks like I have really worried too much!" "Actually, this official's telegraph network still needs a stagecoach. Not only do I need more, I need more!"

"At the moment, the Great Qing's relay system is actually already beginning to serve the telegraph network. From paving the lines to daily maintenance, this is the work of the postmen … Who are you calling a loser? On the contrary, I've even recruited a lot of new people! "

"However, Head Office's orders to the relay stations are all to cooperate with the telegraph office. If there are any errands, they would have to be settled by two yamen, and that would create a waste of time!"

"That's right. You said that after a strong wind, two poles were blown down and these postmen will go repair them …" "Finally, the military has to report the cost of the repairs to our telegraph office!"

"That's bullsh * t. I think five taels of silver is enough to repair it. It's just a small project to dig holes and restore health …" "But, the military feels that it's impossible to do it without fifty silver taels!"

"The two sides are at odds with each other, but the key point is that money is definitely going to cost a lot... Hehe … His Majesty, you also know that the ground is wet! "How can he not be tempted when he sees the silver in his black eyes?"

Just one sentence was enough to make everyone in the room feel awkward, but Tongzhi was not angry at all as he laughed, "To tell the truth! What you said was the truth! There must be more people who would want to settle the score.

"Please calm your anger Your Majesty, this subject will die a thousand times …" The group of people quickly expressed their stance, neatly as if they had been trained.

Zai Chun waved his hand, "There is no end to such corrupt topics. Forget it, Fu Qing, you can continue talking about it."

"It's His Majesty! My first plan is to separate the relay station system from the military... If we were to put it in the management position of the Great Clear Telegraph Office, it would directly talk about how two pieces of skin would become one piece of meat! "

"Since it's all managed by a single yamen, what is there to be afraid of?" The telegraph office will definitely be able to take care of it! "

Li Hongzhang suddenly spoke out, "If we are able to separate ourselves from the army, then what about after the military intelligence is passed on to us? "What about the military?"

"Oh, Lord Li, what are the years? Don't tell me the military does not use telegraph line? Why do we have to send them over so quickly?" To put it bluntly, telegrams are still the fastest! "

"We can write it down clearly in the rules. Military intelligence cables and official documents from different departments all cost nothing. They are all provided by the telegraph office for free. Is that not okay?"

Everyone looked at each other without saying a word but still thinking. Everyone knew that this kind of reform was definitely good, but reform would definitely move other people's cheese. How could the military not object?

At this time, the head of the War Department, Peng Yulin, came to welcome them and expressed his stance, "Your majesty, this old official is supporting you! Master Fu Qing's new plan has more benefits than disadvantages! "

Ah, the Military Chief nodded. and the others were stunned, but after thinking about it, they understood!

Peng Yulin came from the Xiang Army, so he was actually a spokesperson for the Xiang Army. The true authority in the military was in the hands of the empress dowager and the two princes.

Why would he be so displeased? Furthermore, with this kind of reform, even a fool would know that there were benefits to it!

Zai Chun didn't have any expression on his face. He simply nodded and said, "Fu Qing, continue talking, is there any other way?"

"Ah …" This reform system, which places the relay station system under the control of the telegraph office, is ultimately just a throttle that can compress costs! "

"But the artificial materials that should be put in still need to be used by the Real Gold and Silver s … If the imperial government does not have the money to invest, then there is another way! "

"Let's look for foreigners or Chinese to buy shares!"

"No way!" Everyone in the room started shouting, Weng Tonghe, Lian Xing, Yi Cong, Feng Fu, Li Hongzhang, Li Hongzhang... These people rejected the proposal in unison.

"This method is definitely not feasible!" To even let foreigners buy shares? And even allowing Chinese capital to infiltrate in? Our Great Qing's treasures have all become outsiders' … "

"The telegraph network s that are sent through the military must not be interfered with by foreign devils or Xiao Letian. Absolutely not!"

Fu Qing sighed as he looked at the entire room filled with these fierce objections, "Sigh … That's why this humble subject doesn't dare speak of it in the Grand Commission! This official knows that countless people will oppose it! "

"But I can't deny that this method is the easiest and fastest... Seven or eight million silver can be paid by the head of state alone! "

Weng Tonghe glared at him and said, "Fu Qing! Don't think that just because your sister is married to Xiao Letian, you have really become the First Uncle of the Hua Clan! You are the Manchu, you are the official of the Great Qing! "

"Don't forget your duty! "Don't forget your roots …"

Fu Qing was scolded until his face turned red, "Master Weng, what are you saying? The proposal I am talking about, is a possibility to make a choice, and not something that I have to force His Majesty to do! "

"If you don't agree, then I have other ideas..." Why are you still scolding? This is truly disgraceful! "

"You!" Weng Tonghe was so angry that his eyes turned round.

"Stop arguing! "Good business!" Zai Chun said with a cold face.

Fu Qing cupped his hands and said, "Long live the last method... That's the telegraph office raising their own funds! "

"For the next three to four years, the Great Clear Telegraph Office will bear all the profits. He will not ask for a single cent from the imperial government nor give the imperial government a single cent of his profits!"

"Make some money, invest some more …" For the parts that are lacking, this subject will borrow them, and this subject will exchange them at Jiang-Nan market! "
