    When Chen Shi thought about Hu Xueyan almost sending him to Kashgar, Xinjiang, he felt deep hatred.  "Father-in-law, please don't get angry and hurt your body." Lin Yizhe hurriedly advised, "Such a villain will surely have a day of evil and retribution!" "Yes, let's not mention this vicious villain!" Chen Shijian saw  When Lin Yizhe expressed his concern for him, he was moved in his heart. He remembered that today was the day when Weng and his son-in-law met. He didn't want Hu Xueyan to ruin his good mood, so he said, "Come! Let's have a nice drink together!" Because  Lin Yizhe kept everything simple in Beijing, and did not bring a special chef like many famous officials nowadays. He could not buy a banquet in his apartment, so he took Chen Shi to the "Guangheju" restaurant and ordered a banquet.  People talked and drank freely.  Different from what I had imagined, Chen Shi's speech and behavior were completely like a scholar, and he was different from generals like Tang Dingkui and Zhou Shengchuan. Maybe it was because he had been transferred to a civilian position for too long (he was a civilian official according to the inspection), but  Lin Yizhe could still feel that his father-in-law was not only straightforward, but also very approachable.  Now Lin Yizhe finally understands why when Chen Shi was implicated by himself and his home was attacked by thugs, the old troops who had been abolished in the past spontaneously came to guard him.  Perhaps because he knew in advance that he might be appointed as the governor of Taiwan, Chen Shi seemed very excited. During the dinner, he asked all questions about Taiwan. Lin Yizhe answered them in detail one by one, which amazed Chen Shi.  Lin Yizhe was very excited when he thought that his father-in-law would be in charge of Taiwan's overall situation, and that he could take advantage of it by setting up a shipyard in Taiwan.  At about the same time, at the General Taxation Department, Hurd had received the news that the Prime Minister's Office had decided to order four British-made Rendall-type gunboats, and he was excitedly writing a letter to his loyal subordinate King Denggan in London:  "Dear Jin Dengqian: I have received your letters up to a/50 and z/37. Thank you for spending so much energy to collect such complete information in reply to my telegram. I am not satisfied with any point.  There is nothing to say. I will use your memorandum when needed in the future. The Prime Minister's Office has adopted my suggestion and will inform me of the specific ship purchase requirements soon. The succession to the throne has been carefully planned.  It's going very smoothly. Between us, Prince Gong has more power than ever, and based on his past experience, I think he will have good results in the next ten years.  The sixth child - a daughter, was born on the first day of the new year - the first year of Guangxu. Her nickname is Xinxi (Happy New Year)! I heard that he is going to return to China this spring. Please don't continue to send me "Wei".  newspaper, I really don¡¯t have time to read it. If the "Naval News" continues to be sent, it may be useful. Not only did the Chinese borrow money through HSBC, but they also borrowed money from Liru Bank and Jardine Matheson in Shanghai last week.  More money (the exact amount is unclear, I believe it is a short-term loan, three years). As your telegram said, the loan from HSBC was handled by Hu Guangyong and Naulting.  The loan, but the bank is lending its own money to collect other people's money. I think as far as China is concerned, it's an imperial loan and it's legitimate.  Authorization. But the bank's life is not easy now. I will not be surprised if one day I hear that both the lender and the borrower are in trouble. Regarding the source of shipbuilding funds of the Fuzhou Shipping Bureau, I got a surprising news.  The Chinese probably got the loan from Rothschild Bank! It is said that the young Prime Minister Lin Yizhe has a good personal relationship with His Excellency Viscount Rothschild, but if this is true.  It's true, and I wouldn't be surprised. I have a strange idea in my mind that maybe Minister Lin gave his savings in Rothschild Bank to the Shipping Bureau because he is famous.  The inventor of Lin's Underwear, his clothing company brought him huge profits. I believe that he is one of the richest Chinese people. I don't think I need to add anything more to the question of gunboats, but still.  There are a few things you should pay special attention to: 1. Immediately report the contract price for each gunboat when it is fully equipped. 2. What kind of inspection must the cannon be? Describe it in detail, because I still have to explain it to the Chinese.  . 3. Since Armstrong Company is contracting to build a special type of ship, which is suitable for ocean navigation and has a giant cannon for combat, I think the company should be fully responsible. We do not need to hire someone to supervise this project, or  Check their specifications.  But when the construction is completed, it is best to ask a professional technician to confirm that the ship to be delivered meets the specifications, etc  4. The living cabin should be simple and unpretentious, not flashy, Gothic, not Elizabethan.  You have to remember that these ships are for Chinese people to live in.  Let Armstrong and Company consider how many British crew members such a warship would need (that is, those who operate the cannon and other duties on the ship), and then assume that it would take three Chinese on board to do the work of two British people, and that four British people would have enough room.  Five Chinese people live here, so arrange it accordingly.  5. These ships are designed with double-layer canopies.  6. I have been authorized to purchase a ship equipped with an 80-ton cannon, but I asked them to wait for I fear that at the last moment the cannon will prove useless.  If the trials of the 80-ton cannon currently under way are satisfactory, we will order two.  7. If the ships ordered this time prove satisfactory, we may order 10 or 12 more ships.  8. It is necessary to ensure that these ships have good long-distance voyage performance, the speed must reach 9 nautical miles as promised, and the fuel consumption must be small.  9. The three-masted ship is the most agile on the Chinese coast.  10. How many rounds of various artillery shells can each level of ship carry?  11. Special reminder to Armstrong Company that the ammunition depot must be built safely and located in a convenient location.  Let a water pump be connected to it so that it can be filled with water all at once.  Faithful to your Hurd" ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù "Li Wenzhong Gongji: Fu Lin Kunyu Fujun": "The opportunity to open up the platform is called Tian  When establishing counties and counties, it is necessary to examine the villages and communities and analyze the people. Where the wild people gather, they must make laws and restraints, and refrain from killing. The land and the people are not enough to manage it, so we can see how big it is.  If we make extravagant and far-sighted remarks and station troops with an annual salary of more than one million yuan, and wait for Xinjiang to have access and ingress, it will add a new gap to the country, and its momentum will definitely not be sustainable.   The young commander has returned to the province, and he is quarreling with each other, hoping to find a destination.  The obtained land has no fruit to be exploited, and it seems that there is no need to worry about it, which will cause difficulties in the future.  Most speakers believe that Taiwan can be prosperous and powerful if it is managed. However, the current financial resources are extremely low, and the Japanese may not be able to develop it until the compensation is paid.  If you can get the Fang Immortal to sit in charge and dredge the roads, it will be the best thing to do.  " "The replacement of the shipowner, the young commander and the servant merchant have not yet been decided. The servant's intention is in the jurisdiction of Nanyang. No matter who undertakes it, it is still appropriate for the young commander to control it remotely.  Please keep 40% of the Fujian Pass, which has been divided into coastal defense rates. You will still have the remaining funds in the future, and you can expand it.  The division of coastal defense in the South and the North is only in name only. Four million is allocated every year, but it is impossible to allocate the full amount. Even if it is fully allocated, it will not be enough to start the operation in a short period of time.  Since Provincial and Xiamen Electric Cable purchased it themselves for 150,000 yuan, why did they still authorize it to Dan people?  It was thought that the Chinese could not undertake the construction, so foreign engineers were hired.  If the skilled craftsmen are allowed to help their fellow craftsmen learn, they can be sent away as soon as their skills are accomplished, and there will be less harm.  I heard that a new mine bureau was established in central Fujian, which seems to be related to the electric wire. He teaches the mines and mines Yang Bian. How is his skill?  I still want to call him to Jinmen for a try.  Mines are powerful weapons for guarding mouths and breaking ships. They have many names and need to be studied and refined urgently.  The countries in Europe and the West are getting stronger and stronger, but China has nothing to rely on, that is, building iron ships, building forts, and adding more troops, which is definitely not a defense.  In order to win, the court's plan seems to be more uncertain, like chasing the wind.  Now that you have entered the sea department this time, Shilin has discussed the issue of a vassal town. When it comes to Beiyang, the same discussion is frightening.  With so many days and so many people, nothing can be done!  There are only those who can do what we can but cannot do.  ¡± ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù Beijing, Xianliang Temple. Lin Yizhe read Li Hongzhang¡¯s letter and felt the deep worry in his letter, and couldn¡¯t help but sigh secretly.  . Although the Chinese government and the public were increasingly calling for change due to the strong stimulation of Japan's invasion of Taiwan, the "disharmonious" voices never stopped. The imperial court announced the establishment of the "Prime Minister's Office of Naval Affairs" and Prince Chun took charge of the navy.  After the yamen, Yi Wenxiang, Shen Baozhen, Lin Yizhe, and Li Hongzhang were appointed as the naval yamen ministers and the establishment of the province of Taiwan, and the appointment of Chen Shi as the governor of Taiwan, the Qing gossip officials immediately raised their voices of opposition. The main focus of the opposition was then.  The focus was on the personnel of the Navy Yamen. Supervisory censor Li Deshui took the lead in reporting that Shen Baozhen, Lin Yizhe and Li Hongzhang should not be allowed to enter the Navy Yamen. His reason was that Shen Baozhen was Lin Yizhe's uncle, and Li Hongzhang was the same age as Shen Baozhen and was close friends with Lin Yizhe.  "When there is trouble in Taiwan, the two of them will mobilize troops privately." They have cooperated closely. If the three of them are allowed to control the naval office, Prince Chun, who does not understand the navy, will inevitably be sidelined. "The maritime office is in name only."  "Chengfanzhen". In this way, once Beiyang and Nanyang join forces to cause chaos, the country and the country will inevitably be in jeopardy! What's even more hateful is that Li Deshui fiercely opposed Prince Chun in charge of the naval yamen in the book, because Prince Chun is the emperor's biological father, "Must be  "Avoid suspicion!" As soon as Li Deshui's memorial was published, more officials of the Qing Dynasty followed suit, and for a time, Shen, Lin, and Li were kicked out of the sea.The Yamen will not be finished!  PS: On the day when the training class ended, when taking a group photo, a group of female students posed for a group photo not far away.  I asked my colleague with a bad smile: "Men will play masturbation at night, what do you think women do?" As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the group of female students shouting in unison: "Eggplant!"
