Chapter 1730: Wolf ambition
After arriving in Qinglong, there was a special labor bureau. The servants came here to entrust the man to click Mao. Several servants in the labor camp under the labor bureau seemed very unhappy. They seemed to think that Li Dongyang was too old and could not help but tease the servants who were escorting: "At such an age, how can I do the work?"
The escorted officer smiled and said, "Shangguan said this, what can we do? But he is literate. . Updated the fastest."
Literacy...
After hearing this, the people in the labor camp's eyes lit up suddenly and finally became a little interested. So they registered Li Dongyang and confirmed that they could write and calculate. They were satisfied. They temporarily detained Li Dongyang, and sent him porridge and steamed cakes, as well as a piece of mutton.
The meat here is actually not valuable, there are beefs and sheep everywhere, and eating meat may not be more expensive than eating white rice in the pass.
Li Dongyang, the grand Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, has since been considered a member of the third team of the second labor camp.
After resting for two days, he was called out. Among countless prisoners, he was stuffed into a big cart at dawn. This was not a crane cart, and he was absolutely uncomfortable. There were only two rows of wooden stools leaning against the wall of the car, and a car of more than a dozen people were in. After entering, he had to curl up and sit.
The car left for half an hour before reaching the place, and then heard the sound of a bamboo whistle. A group of people were driven out of the car, and then they called for a few more points.
At this time, Li Dongyang saw a deeply shocking scene. It was a station built with cement and stone. The station was very large. Two railway lines crossed here. A steam train, two or three people tall, appeared in front of them in darkness.
Before he could come back to his senses, they were stuffed into the steam train, rumbling... In the harsh sound, the train began to move.
It was a long journey, but all the new prisoners on this journey were now shocked. They sat on a lump of iron. With the thick smoke rolling and the sound of raking, the steam train actually got up automatically. No one dared to lean against the car window. In this tension and fear, they headed towards the depths of the desert.
After walking for dozens of miles, the steam train finally stopped. Everyone got off the bus, and some people had already started to keep placing Mao with the roster.
When someone called Li Dongyang, a supervisor in the labor camp was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes and saw Li Dongyang clearly. Then he smiled and stopped taking it seriously and said, "Can you write it?"
"Yes." Li Dongyang was gradually getting tired of his temper, and he was no different from ordinary people at this time.
"Very good, Lao Chen, take him away."
This is a large construction site for building railways. Countless prisoners, under the command of researchers and senior craftsmen, began to build the roadbed. Countless gravels had to be used to build the roadbed. In addition, the train brought a truckload of sleepers and rails. Countless people started to protect the rails under the existing roadbed in the cold weather, and fixed them with large screws and rivets.
Technicians and senior craftsmen will come to check at any time. This kind of life is very hard, especially when it is about to start winter, it is cold and it is uncomfortable.
However, Li Dongyang is pretty good. He is only responsible for keeping the warehouse and registering the materials entering and leaving.
Occasionally, some books will be sent. For Li Dongyang, he is willing to do the goods, but every time he reads these newspapers a few days ago, it is his most painful thing.
But he had to read it, especially the business newspaper, which was the most explicit. There was a newspaper with various information about recruiting craftsmen. In fact, he had reluctantly accepted these, but what he could not read was the articles.
Some of them were Shiwen who inspected the Duke of Zhenguo. This Duke of Zhenguo really seemed very energetic. In addition, there was news of the surrender of the Siberian Khanate. The head of the Siberian Khan was sent directly to Qinglong. Since then, the Duke of Zhenguo declared a legal annexation of Siberia and specially established Anbei Prefecture.
The rest are all about introducing the customs and customs of New Anbei Prefecture. Of course, there is actually no customs and customs inside, just a place where birds do not lay eggs. However, it greatly praises how rich the resources there are. The Duke of Zhenguo has opened up the mining and logging rights in New Anbe Prefecture. Given that it is a new land, it can be mined at will within 20 years.
In addition, some people shouted that some family located in a certain place or even the Khanate ignored the ultimatum of Zhenguo Mansion and were provoking the Zhenguo Mansion.
"Barbar." Li Dongyang couldn't help but curse in a low voice. In fact, he was not disgusted with the expansion of territory. What he disgusted was the spirit of Zhenguo Mansion, a self-respectful look, bullying the weak, and being so explicit.
What is the difference between this and the barbarians?
Of course, it would be fine if it was just these. What dissatisfied Li Dongyang the most was some articles about Sinology. This Sinology, namely the Confucian school of Sinology, re-annotated the Four Books and Five Classics, and there were many rebellious words in it. However, this Sinology Confucian school now accounts for the front page in major newspapers. There are many articles that should be learned, and there are many textual evidence. The criticism of Neo-Confucianism is extremely explicit and shameless. It would be fine if it was just a simple controversial academic matter. These people actually started directly from Cheng Zhu's personality and criticized his life.
Thinking of this sub-sage who was so humiliated here, Li Dongyang was so angry. These people are so ambitious. No matter what they want to do, they don’t want them.
Whenever Li Dongyang saw this, he would throw the newspaper aside in anger, but sometimes when he was free, he couldn't help it.
For him, this complex emotion was completely troubled and exhausted.
Obviously, the bad days here account for the majority, but... the only thing that makes Li Dongyang feel glad that the food here is surprisingly good. Steam trains bring food and supplies every day. In the desert weather, there is no need to care that the food is not fresh, and it will not deteriorate even if it is stored for more than ten days. Therefore, the warehouse has sufficient supplies, big fish and meat, and never stops.
Every once in a while, a section of railway is repaired, and then a journey is set off for the next period. Such days are actually boring and boring. Countless people dig ditches here and transport countless gravels. A group of people shouted, yelling their almost frozen hands, shouting horns, and carrying materials back and forth.
But at night, it was so cold here. In fact, the tent was quite warm, but Li Dongyang felt that his heart was cold, which made him exhausted physically and mentally.
