3472 Insatiable Greed

Prince Qing Yili is really a fool. This can be said to be recognized by all 49 cities. He is extremely greedy for money and lustful, and lives an extravagant life, but he has no ability yet!

He lived his life by his identity, after all, he was Qianlong’s great-grandson!

Eating, drinking and having fun is a skill that can be lost. I don’t know anything about governing the country and economics. However, Xiao Letian did not offend him, but instead asked Fuqing to give him some distribution rights and gain some advantage.

After all, he was still a comforting thought, but Yi Li couldn't see through this point, and even said that he was rich and cheap, and rushed to flatter him.

Fuqing's current official position in the court is the Deputy Minister of the Zongli Yamen, second only to Prince Gong Yikan in the Zongli Yamen. Fuqing's actual job is to repair telegram lines for the Qing Dynasty and reorganize the station system.

Fu Qing is really a capable minister. With the economic and technological support of his brother-in-law Xiao Letian, and the political support behind his lover Ci'an, he has been promoting telegraph lines in the Qing Dynasty for many years.

The telegraph lines from Guangzhou to Beijing have been laid long ago. The telegraph lines from the three provinces outside the pass have also been repaired. The telegraph lines to the west have been laid to Xi'an, and the submarine cables of the Huazu Telegraph Company to the east have been connected to the submarine cables of the Huazu Telegraph Company.

Even the northwest major cities such as Chengdu, Chongqing and Guiyang have been connected to the telegram line!

Not only the construction of the telegraph line, Fuqing also took over the management of hundreds of thousands of post station soldiers in the Qing Dynasty. These backward post station systems were completely reformed by him.

You will not be laid off. All the soldiers at the station where the telegram line is past will be trained immediately and become road guards who maintain telegram lines.

If you don’t understand high-tech things, you can always do it if the wooden telephone poles are broken or if the wires are broken!

This is a political achievement that the Qing court could not have imagined. Many corrupt scholars wanted to read the jokes of Qing Sanye. They naturally believed that the fall of the Ming Dynasty was because Chongzhen was full and had to reform the post station.

Then if Li Zicheng was not laid off, could he rebel? Some people even waited for millions of postmen around the world to cause trouble or even rebel!

But Fu Qing was not fooled at all, so he was not that stupid. Xiao Letian had already figured out a way out for him and turned all the postmen into workers who maintained the telegram lines.

Not only did my job not be ruined, but my salary increased a little. Now all the people inside and outside the reform circle are stupid!

At present, the Qing Dynasty has telegraph lines covering all provinces outside the Central Plains and the provinces outside the pass, and only Tibet and the war-torn Xinjiang, Gansu and Shaanxi have not yet been built.

Fuqing's plan is much more than that. He also needs to use telegram to connect all prefectures and counties and build a telegram network thoroughly!

This is a big project. The little money in Master Qing’s hand is not enough. He had no choice but to think of the old way to raise funds and borrow money from the world with interest, especially the princes and ministers in Sijiu City who have made money in recent years!

But unexpectedly, Yi Li took the lead and gave Fu Qing a shameless person. Prince Qing would spend 120,000 yuan to build a theater. The Red Prince, who had nine opera troupes at home, finally took out 30,000 yuan in silver!

Fu Qing was so angry that he returned the money directly and threatened, "Although the Qing Dynasty Telegraph Bureau is a poor yamen, it is not enough to be short of these 30,000 taels... Prince Qing was very hard, so he should keep the money for some sorghum rice!"

Good guy, because of this sentence, Prince Qing Yili went to the Zongli Yamen to fight with Fuqing. Master Qing San was still afraid of him. The Manchu fell three times in a row, and then left.

This beam was formed at that time!

How could Yi Li suffer this loss? According to the rules of the Eight Banners, he is the great-grandson of Emperor Qianlong. Your ancestors of Fu Qing are Fu Heng and Fu Kang'an, who is the slave of Emperor Qianlong!

Is it reasonable that there are slaves in the Eight Banners who dare to beat their master? Yi Li went straight to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and also went to the two brothers Yi Yi.

Rules? What are the rules in the Qing Dynasty now? Fu Qing was the leader of the Manchu reformist faction who could not be more popular in the court, and he was sleeping in the same bed with Ci'an.

Who dares to punish him? Everyone is mixed with each other, and even Prince Gong is sloppy!

"Yi Li, don't think we don't know your private transactions... You have thought about it. If you really fight a lawsuit with Fu Qing, will you still need to get the goods in this transaction?"

"Who are you fighting against? Are you fighting against money?"

When Qian Yili mentioned it, he suddenly became silent, neither quarrel nor annoyed, and went home to hold the domestic actor to quench the fire.

No one in the entire Sijiu City knew about that conflict. It was that conflict that made Fu Qing cut off his thoughts of raising funds from the Eight Banners Palaces.

In the end, he raised five million taels in Jiangnan and began to expand the telegraph network in various economically prosperous coastal provinces.

In more than a year, the Qing Dynasty Telegraph Bureau under Master Qing San has at least ensured that all prefectures and counties along the Yangtze River have sent telegrams. Not only can military and national affairs be transmitted, but merchants in Jiangnan can also quickly transmit product information through this network.

Today, Xiaowu Ye Yi Qiong mentioned this matter again, and Yi Li blushed!

"Oh...my fifth brother, what kind of pot you don't open to carry? Anyway...even if I'm wrong, there's no reason why a slave beats his master!"

"Chengchengcheng, can't I turn this page over? I promise not to pursue it in the future? I'll give me an idea. Why don't you tell Fu Qing about it? You are the prince of chivalrous and the fifth master of the capital, you have such face..."

Yi Qi was disgusted when he looked at this brother. What was he talking about? He was still stubborn at this time. He was asking for help, but he said he would not pursue him. You have the courage to pursue him!

The guards around Fuqing were chosen by Long Ye and Xiao Letian himself. The guards in the inner court dared not catch people in close proximity. You expect the Ministry of Justice to be in charge of this bad thing!

Even if you are wrong, what does it mean... Bah, why am I a relative to you?

But he was scolding in his heart that he couldn't bring it out. For the sake of the overall situation of the court, he had to think of it. "Okay, don't beg me anymore. Tell you the truth. If you want to ease this relationship, you have to pay money..."

"Fuqing is going to issue the fourth bond for Northwest Telegraph Network... I guess he won't ask us Sijiu City this time!"

"He doesn't speak, you have to say it! He took the initiative to come to the door and gave him 300,000 to 400,000 taels of silver. He said he would help the Qing Dynasty repair the telegram line and help Zuo Jigao fight..."

"Ah? Thirty or four hundred thousand..." Yi Li shouted out with distress at the time.

"I spit on you... Bah!" Yi Qiong couldn't help it. "You are such a fool! You said it's a national debt. Who wants your money for nothing?"

"If you have less interest, just lower it! You have earned 100,000 or 2 million yuan in the past few years, right? You are not satisfied yet, why are you so greedy!"

"You are a Pixiu! You can't just eat it? You are so virtuous that you want to get involved in the arms business... Let's play with me!"

"Brother, don't be angry. Isn't this a family discussion? It's easy to discuss, it's easy to discuss... Do you think it's okay to have a little less!"

Yi Li pulled Yi Li's arm and refused to let the five of them go. She was smiling and wanted to bargain. Yi Li was speechless. She finally suppressed the anger in her stomach after three glasses of wine.

"I understand and tell you! Long lively Master is coming back, and all the water will be messed up by then... Do you still want to make money? Is Fu Qing going to pay attention to you in the future..."

"It's short-sighted, short-sighted..."

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a hurried but low knock on the door outside, "Master... I am Dexi! Something big happened, something urgent..."
