Sheng Xuanhuai could see everything clearly, but he was unwilling to say much. He would do whatever Li Hongzhang ordered. As long as his own abacus started, he would not suffer any losses or lose money. He would let everything else go.

Li Hongzhang thought that he would have dug out so many spies at once and beat them hard, and the British were in charge of the battle. The Japanese would definitely be much more honest and would never dare to provoke a war. As soon as the matter was over in his mind, he didn't bother to ask about Yang Hao, "What's the matter with the child surnamed Yang?"

Zhang Peilun replied: "He once visited the US Consul Shimede and met Yan Jidao in the afternoon. It is reported that Shi had set off for the capital, or walked for the concession."

"What did he go to Yan Fu for?"

Li Hongzhang has a lot of opinions about the General Office of the Beiyang Naval Academy, which is different from his temper. He just pity his talent and is not very good. In the past two years, Yan Fu has had an opinion on his emotions and is said to have to quit his job.

Zhang Peilun sighed secretly, thinking that Yan Youling was really helpless. Yan Fu, who he recommended to Li Hongzhang at the time, felt that this person was talented and could be used more. He didn't expect that he was so out of place, which made people unable to start. He also thought of his current situation, and he couldn't help but feel like he was sympathetic, so he had to say a few more good things to do.

"I heard that Yan Youling has achieved great achievements in Western learning, and it is unknown whether he visits him with great reputation."

Li Hongzhang snorted: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, right? I think the Yang family's child is not holding back. Maybe he has to explore my details. The fire in the British Concession and the activities of Japanese spies are inseparable from him. Humph, his intentions are impure and his motives are suspicious!"

Zhang Peilun was sweating at that time. He knew very well how cruel his father-in-law was. He would never be ruthless to those who dared to come out and try to make trouble. He killed the Taiping Army and killed Nianzi, but died under his command for tens of thousands of lives, and he could not rub the sand in his eyes!

For fear of getting Yan Fu involved, he hurriedly said, "I'll remind Yan Youling now, don't make mistakes and draw a clear line with Yang Hao."

Sheng Xuanhuai was not having a good time. Yang Hao was the first to look for him. If he found out that there was a problem with this person, he couldn't explain it clearly. However, he had to be more active and thought about it and reminded him: "At present, we don't know what kind of background and plots he has, and what kind of relationship he has with Americans. It's better to observe his words, observe his actions, and then make decisions."

Li Hongzhang's eyelids drooped: "Forget it! A mere child, if you can't mobilize others, you will have no gains or losses. It's just a matter of being so close."

After all, Li Zhongtang is also a person who is afraid of trouble. No matter what, Yang Hao is holding the banner of the Americans. When this is critical, don't cause diplomatic relations.

, it makes me uncomfortable.

This spy case involves all Japan, Britain, France, and Qing dynasties. In Beijing, Tianjin, and all over the country, there will be no storm in the next few days, and countless changes will occur inside and outside. Li Hongzhang needs to be mentally motivated, deal with it carefully, and engage in the political game that is most beneficial to him.

In addition, the Beiyang Navy and even the whole country's military preparations and national defense will also undergo a major change. Even if you have no money to add equipment, some of the top players will inevitably be knocked down. Countless exchanges of interests and strife will be born. And some are struggling.

What Li Hongzhang wanted was a "clear and peaceful era, peaceful and prosperous era" situation that could fool the whole time. Facing the 60th birthday of Cixi, he did not want to have any problems.

He said it lightly, but he was already alert in his heart. How could the Japanese have been planning for so many years, and such a large layout could easily be dug out by others? What kind of potential force does Yang Hao represent? You must figure it out, but don’t be a group of rebels who attempt to cause trouble!

Several people bowed their heads and said yes, but they all put Yang Hao seriously in their hearts.

Yang Hao burned the fire outside, but he returned to his private residence and continued to fabricate two spy prisoners.

Both Ishikawa Wuichi and his two men have undergone rigorous training and "going to the countryside". They have tormented from all over the world and thought they are tenacious and have been tested for a long time. Unexpectedly, they met someone who did not follow the rules.

I didn't know how long it took. When I woke up suddenly, I found that my body could not move, my ears could not hear, my eyes could not see, my mouth was closed, and it was difficult to even do some activities. This strange state, which seemed to have entered hell, made him think that he had arrived at Jiudansaka. But soon after, his whole body was sore, numb, itchy and swelling, and all his urine and defecation were on the verge of an outbreak, and he realized that he was still alive.

But living is more uncomfortable than dying! He struggled, he screamed, trying to make some noise or attract someone, but in the end, he had no reaction at all.

All day and night! When Yang Hao and his men opened the box and opened the blindfolded cloth with masks, Ishikawa Wuichi was already in a semi-crazy state. He asked whatever he asked casually, and he vomited all the beans like a bamboo tube.

Yang Hao laughed and said, "The power of the small black room is indeed extraordinary! I can't stand it in just 24 hours. I'm really a coward."

...He didn't think about it. In a small dark room, he could at least sit and lie down while standing, change his posture, or something. This guy couldn't move at all. Who could withstand that kind of uncomfortable feeling except for yoga masters and masters who have achieved success in cultivation?

The two prisoners interrogated separately, repeatedly confirmed the confession and sealed Yan Shi again. While the people from Song Yunsheng's business came to deliver gold and silver in the evening, they carried the box to his car together. Liu Dafu followed him and threw it to the side of the road halfway. Not long after, they were discovered.

At this time, the captain's documents were posted everywhere, and the two were sent to the yamen not long after. What awaited them would be the severe punishments and serious laws of the Qing Dynasty and the end of being beheaded and displayed in public.

At noon on the third day, the British Concession lifted martial law, and Yang Hao invited several top figures, including Zhan Liuye, the Caogang, at the Lishunde Hotel.

Today's Cao Gang is no longer as powerful as the rivers of thousands of sails and flags that were floating in the river. Even the government could not help but be able to do so. There are only six gangs left. Tianjin Wei basically all went ashore and monopolized the business of the coastal river to Dagukou, which is loading, unloading, and transporting.

Now, in the two concessions in Britain and France, there are Zizhulin, Renyi, Yishunxin, Gongyi, Yuansheng, Yuansheng, Jingli and Pingli, and other multiple footworks, sharing the benefits. Most of these footwork workers are landless farmers, and they are actually doing hard business, and they have to pay regular payments to the top bosses.

And Mr. Zhan Liu is the old man on this section of the river bank, so when Yang Hao reported his number that night, the boatman dared not speak back.

If Yang Hao wants to seek the American Concession and build a foundation here, he will definitely not be able to avoid this group. Just like in the future, no one in the Shanghai Concession can escape the Qing Gang. The Qing Gang itself is transformed after the Cao Gang came ashore.

If you want to replace an ordinary businessman in your country, local snakes like Zhan Liuye will never give you face easily - I think that when Hu Xueyan made his fortune, he had to rely on the Cao Gang to help him. But Yang Hao was wearing a dress of foreign clothing and was a wealthy and rich Shanxi merchant who was praised by the world. He was polite and thoughtful, and had enough face in the wharf, so he could not be neglected. Therefore, there was no one in this table.

Yang Hao was able to hold on to the scene and came up to apologize to Mr. Zhan Liu first. He borrowed someone's name before meeting him. He always revealed it in the future. Now, he made it clear, but it seemed so grand.

Mr. Zhan Liu didn't rub the sand in his eyes, but he knew best at watching Fengxing boats. He just blew over. Instead, he thought that Yang Hao used him as a hood to increase his face. In this way, everyone felt that Yang Hao was happy and there was less estrangement between them, so he was much more convenient and direct when speaking.

Yang Hao invited them to come and asked Song Yunsheng in advance that there were no bastards who were selling others. They were all loyal and prestigious. Therefore, they did not beat around the bush and made clear their meanings first.

He wanted to occupy the ground of the US concession, build a dock and set up a standardized foot shop to be responsible for loading and unloading. The construction of the entire concession requires Liba craftsmen; establish a newspaper, someone from north to south, establish a work department bureau, and fire fighting patrols and battles require professional teams; build a spinning mill, weaving mill, flour mill, iron factory and other factories, requiring female workers...

One thing is that I want to spend a lot of money here, and I need a lot of people to carry the work. Everyone has cooperated, including newspaper boys, female workers, footwork, workers, barges, and security guards, and they can almost all of their brothers. Every household has money to get and have food to eat!

This is a pie that falls from the sky! No one does it, and your mind is flooded!

Although it sounds like the Cao Gang master is so awesome, they are actually all paupers who are grouping together to keep warm. Since the shipping started, their situation has taken a sharp turn. Even if the boss wants to take off his head, there is not much money to get. Today, Yang Hao gave him a chance. Even if he knows that others have his own rules, no one will agree.

In fact, they all understand very well. They don’t have to do the work themselves anyway. The subordinates follow the rules and occupy the territory, work hard and pay the participants, and each gets the right place.

The guests and guests enjoyed this meal, and Yang Hao also achieved his goal.

On the morning of the fourth day, when Yang Hao appeared in the messy American Concession, there was already a large number of people behind him. Professional martial artists led by Tongxing Public Escort Bureau and professional fighters with Cao Gang as the main force. The dozens of feet and the big heads led by him were the master of the mysterious boxing master who was famous in the world in the future, Huo Yuanjia!

You read that right! Huo Yuanjia, a Tianjin hero who became famous in Shanghai in the future, competed with Russian strong men, created the martial arts cleverness, and used martial arts to boost national morale. Now he is the most famous Tianjin Wei!

What unit is the foot train? In professional terms, it is the "organization of bullies exploiting porters". The big guy is the manager and backbone of the foot train who are standing on the street and ready to bring people to the market to fight with other foot trains, supporting the scene.

Of course, their existence mostly enters as a guest official, rather than being able to offend him at will.

Yang Hao came to Tianjin, how could he not invite this hero to come and pretend to be a storefront? Since Nong Jinsun's medicinal peddler could ask him to work and carry the burden, he would pay a lot of money to be a big deal, which is very reasonable and logical, right?
