Princess House.
When she got the news that Xiao Yi was in the East Palace, she breathed a sigh of relief, and the Xiao royal family also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Over the years, the emperor has never established a prince. Our palace has always been worried that the emperor intends to learn from western countries. Now that Yi'er is in charge of the East Palace, it is a relief."
She took up the tea cup and breathed softly. Princess Pingyang showed a smile.
Sitting opposite Princess Pingyang are the Royal relatives and nobles such as king Yong, Duke song, Duke Tang.
Hearing this, King Yong said, "Pingyang is too worried. No matter how stupid the emperor is, he will not give up his country to others. During this period of time, I often have contact with Westerners in business. What they play is actually very inferior. In the final analysis, it's just that the nobles are dissatisfied with the authority of the emperor, and set up a rebellion to restrict the emperor's rights so that they can formulate national policies. As for the so-called popular election, it's just a matter of fact If you want to spend money, you can get as many tickets as you want. "
As soon as his voice fell, everyone burst into laughter.
Tang Guogong said: "no, if so, those rich businessmen will become Phoenix. They have plenty of money. At that time, they can be elected Li Zheng if they go to any village and spend some money. If they spend some more money, they will be county magistrate. Can not the more wealthy be the governor of the county?"
"Yes, it's ridiculous. We can't let the emperor make such mistakes." Tang Guogong said: "this world belongs to our Xiao family. If other people want to get involved, we won't agree."
Everyone nodded after hearing the words.
Princess Pingyang's eyes flow. Now Pang Yukun and Fiji are fighting in the court, and the power of private capital is growing, but everyone seems to ignore the strong royalist power of Xiao's royal family.
For them, nothing is more important than keeping the Xiaos.
After a cup of tea, Princess Pingyang said, "no matter what the emperor does, we will support what he does. We are all one family. Moreover, the emperor treats us well. Although the royal family no longer lives on monthly income, the convenience provided by the emperor makes us more and more wealthy. Some of the people are also famous in the army, which is also true for our royal family There is light on the surface. "
Duke song can't help nodding his head. When the royal family was sent to the factory to work, he complained a lot, but now he has made a fortune through the trade of the chamber of Commerce, and his life is more nourishing than before. Naturally, his dissatisfaction with Xiao Ming is gone.
Tang Guogong said with emotion: "more than that, the emperor seems to pay more and more attention to our royal family now. Xiao Yue, the dog, was just transferred to the Department of electric power by the cabinet yesterday. He is going to Jinling City to supervise the construction of the thermal power plant "
other people showed a trace of envy. Even a fool can see the future of the Department of electric power. The Department of railway is still so profitable, not to mention the power that every family needs in the future. "
" my son is the commander in the army. "
"It's no big deal. My son is in the chamber of Commerce. He has a lot of money."
“……”
Tang Guogong's words seemed to open the conversation, and each one began to compare with his own offspring.
The smile on Princess Pingyang's face is more and more thick. Today, because of the prince's affairs, people gather here. It can be seen that the royal family is the firm power to protect the emperor.
It is estimated that Xiao Ming will appropriately enhance the influence of the royal family.
At the same time that the royal family celebrated for it, the matter of the crown prince was also announced to the world through the newspaper. For a time, the topic of the crown prince of the East Palace was all around the streets and after dinner.
Only three days later, however, the prince's enthusiasm was replaced by another big news: Commander Lei Ming of the southeast military region was ordered to attack the British forces in the southeast, and the first step was to capture Australia.
At the bottom of the news is a brief introduction to Australia, as well as its mineral resources and natural advantages.
For a moment, all the attention of the people was focused on this area called the upper continent of mines.
Qian's mining, a building in the center of Qingzhou business district, became lively after the news of Australia was published in the newspaper.
Qingzhou, big and small, has a lot of mine managers.
"Shopkeeper Qian, what are the anthracite and bauxite mentioned in this newspaper?"
In the innermost room of Qian's mining industry, businessmen asked with flattering smiles, this Qian's mining industry is private and has been established for only five years.
But in five years, Qian mining has become the top five mining companies in Qingzhou, and the first four mining companies have royal background.
Because of this, the growth of Qian's mining industry attracted the attention of other businessmen. After some exploration, they realized that the manager of Qian's mining industry was a distant relative of Qian Dafu.
And who is Qian Dafu? It was a red man in front of the emperor. Immediately, the reputation of Qian's mining industry spread like wildfire, and then the fact soon proved that Qian's mining industry was well informed.
Qian mining always has first-hand information about where there are mines and whether the quality of the mines is good or not.
So every time there is important news, many people will come to find out."This anthracite is a kind of hard, dense and high gloss coal mine variety. Among all kinds of coal, anthracite has low calorific value, but the highest carbon content and the least impurity content. It is mainly used in nitrogen fertilizer production and forging. Anthracite powder coal is mainly used in metallurgical industry for smelting, which can improve the quality of steel. In addition, anthracite can also be used in tap water treatment."
Qian Liang had no reservation about the merchant's inquiry. Just as the merchant had guessed, Qian's mining industry had a lot to do with Qian da. However, the emperor agreed to this matter as a bonus to Qian Da Fu.
However, although Qian's mining is not an official company, Qian's mining basically performs the same obligations as the official company at the request of Qian Dafu. It is precisely because of this willingness that Qian's mining can grow so rapidly.
"With so many functions, it seems to be of great value." A businessman surprised.
Another businessman asked, "what is bauxite?"
Qian Liang once again said, "this thing is very powerful. It is said that the College of chemistry has mastered the technology of electrolytic aluminum, which is used to refine aluminum. It is said that aluminum is very important to industry. It can also replace copper in wires and greatly reduce the cost of laying wires. If we transport these bauxites back, we will not worry about selling them."
Because of the limitation of transportation conditions and mining efficiency, the official mines could not meet the needs of the Empire, so private mines appeared, which made up for the mechanical requirements through manpower.
If the southeast military region can successfully occupy Australia, it is inevitable to exploit the mines here, and this is also the reason why businessmen are excited.
