Chapter 163

Li Changgeng made a metaphor for Daming Palace, which made Xu Shichang smile bitterly. If Li Changgeng really used his own statement to Daming Palace, although it was inconsistent, it was not unreasonable. How many people in China would call for a long-deprived palace ruins. Not to mention the Northeast Army in Li Changgeng and his current control of the country, Li Changgeng is also one of the richest people in the world in terms of wealth. There is an American named Forbes who likes to rank the rich and has a very reputable reputation in the world. Forbes once said that the richest individual in the world is Li Changgeng, and his wealth will continue to grow for a long time.

Forbes has a high opinion of Li Changgeng. The wealth that the richest man in the world does not possess as the public knows. He relies on the power in his hands to earn wealth, but on starting businesses and producing technological innovations and inventing new products to earn wealth. A single drug of chloramine is enough to make him one of the richest people in the world.

If Li Changgeng really had to spend money to rebuild the Daming Palace by himself, the Chinese people would really not be able to say anything about him. Moreover, from a reasonable point of view, he was still the first person in China, including party, politics, and military power, and it would be nice to not spend the country's money to build the palace.

Xu Shichang smiled, "If you can really pay for your own money to rebuild the Daming Palace, it will be a good thing."

The state banquet officially began with the arrival of envoys from various countries. Xu Shichang stood in front of the SS Guard of Honor and exchanged letters of nationality with envoys from various countries. Li Changgeng stood aside and shook hands with envoys from various countries. The banquet officially began after envoys from various countries reviewed the SS Guard of Honor. Li Changgeng delivered a toast on behalf of the Chinese government, "Good evening, ladies, everyone, on this Mid-Autumn Festival. On behalf of the Chinese Government, the National Congress of the Chinese National Socialist Party, the Chinese National People's Party, and all the people of all ethnic groups in China, I would like to express a warm welcome to your arrival and wish you a smooth work during your work in China! I also take this opportunity to wish the people of all countries and the Chinese people to live in peace!

The place where we hold a banquet today is very special. This is the palace where the Tang Dynasty banquets envoys from various countries more than a thousand years ago. Although the world's largest palace group has now become ruins, it has witnessed the friendly exchanges between the Chinese nation and the people of all ethnic groups in the world. Emperor Taizong of Tang once said this sentence that still represents the wishes of the Chinese people and the government, that is, the world is close to each other.

Today is the traditional Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival. This festival represents a harvest and a perfect festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival has the legend of Chang'e flying to the moon. It has also been influenced by Chinese culture in many countries and regions in Southeast Asia in Japan. Finally, I wish the world peace forever, and I wish people of all countries and nations to interact with the Chinese people in a friendly way, and write a new chapter of peace and prosperity for human history!”

After Li Changgeng finished his toast, he went downstairs to talk to the envoys of various countries. Among the envoys of various countries, there was a more eye-catching one, namely the Soviet ambassador to China, Adolf Abramovich and Yuefei. This made China the first country in the world to establish normal diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union. Although China's move made the great powers very dissatisfied, it was just dissatisfied. China took a big advantage from the Soviet Union, and the two sides also signed a border division treaty. China recognized the national status of the Soviet Union as an inevitable choice!

Li Changgeng came to Yue Fei, who was standing up to greet him, and said, "Welcome to work in China, Mr. Ambassador, I wish your country to end the war as soon as possible, return to national construction, and say hello to Mr. Lenin and Mr. Trovsky on my behalf. I am very happy that Mr. Lenin can listen to my opinions. I hope that the friendship between the peoples of China and the Soviet Union will last forever. There is another small thing, that is, some people from your party come to China to promote your ideas, which is very unacceptable to me. I hope that the ambassador will tell those people not to ruin the hard-won peaceful relations between China and Russia."

Li Changgeng spoke loudly, and the ambassadors of all countries around him heard it, and he was secretly happy. The relationship between China and the Soviet Union was not as good as they imagined, and Li Changgeng was very careful about **ism. This is a good omen. Now the battle of the Soviet Union Red Army has been further strengthened, so that all countries do not have any hope for armed interference. It is very realistic between countries. Even if they can't defeat the Bolsheviks of the Soviet Union, they must prevent them from spreading the revolution. If China blocks the expansion of the Soviet Union to the east, then they only have to defend the Western Front with all their might.

"Ambassador Hiraii, congratulations, old friend, I heard that you were granted a baron by the Emperor, and now you have been promoted from minister to ambassador! We have a lot to talk about now!"

Rizhiyi quickly stood up and bowed 90 degrees to Li Changgeng. Li Changgeng was so bad in his eyes. During his tenure as minister, he threw away Lushun and Qingdao one after another. Many people in the country called him a seller, but it was not sold by him, a minister to China, but those chaebols could not withstand Li Changgeng's foolings. Listening to Li Changgeng's talk to him, Rizhiyi instinctively dodged for a while. Although it was only so slight that no one could notice, it was an unforgivable fault in Rizhiyi's heart. As a qualified diplomat, you must always maintain a neither humble nor arrogant attitude. "Your Excellency, you are very honored to accept your banquet here. May China and Japan have friendly exchanges and friendship last forever."

Li Changgeng smiled enthusiastically and clinked a glass with Rijiyi and continued: "China and Japan have exchanges of thousands of exchanges. Although there were some unpleasant experiences, in general, there were more good and less bad. More than a thousand years ago, the ruins of the palace at our feet were at our feet. Your country's envoy sent the Tang Dynasty to China to learn the civilization of the Tang Dynasty. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty invited them here to teach them the civilization of the Tang Dynasty without reservation, so that they could become officials in the Tang Dynasty and learn civilization. Now our two countries have become equal and mutually beneficial friendly neighbors. The people of the two countries have traditional friendship. I hope that in the future we can give up the grudges between the two countries and return to the friendly and normal development of a friendly and normal country. Seek common ground while reserving differences, tolerate each other, develop together, and have friendly exchanges! I hope that the Ambassador has time and we can sit together and talk!"

The Minister Hibi Yi was fooled by Li Changgeng and was confused. He didn't know what official Li Changgeng was selling. After seeing Li Changgeng leave, he sat there alone thinking about what Li Changgeng meant. After thinking about it, he was basically talking nonsense. Suddenly, he was so stupid. The last sentence of Li Changgeng's nonsense was the key, that is, he hoped to meet me. But what to talk about?

After Li Changgeng respected the envoys from various countries, he turned to the supervisors of various ministries and commissions who participated in the banquet, listened carefully to their work reports, chatted about some romance and romance, and brought his relationship with the officials closer.

When the banquet was midfield, Li Changgeng walked to the podium the next time, "Dear envoys to China, I want to show you something." As Li Changgeng finished speaking, ten SS guards neatly moved out the sand table that Li Changgen had just seen for Xu Shichang and placed it under Li Changgeng's podium!

"Everyone must be curious about what this is. I won't sell more officials!" The red thick cloth was slowly opened by the staff, and a huge urban micro-carving building complex was presented to the ambassadors of various countries. Li Changgeng acted as a speaker at the time and introduced the urban planning of New Chang'an. He heard the foreigners in a daze, wondering if they were listening to fantasy. He just said how long it would take to complete such a big city. Three years, and it was three years that he heard it right! Is this person crazy or we heard it wrong?

Li Changgeng was stunned when he saw these foreign envoys, and knew that his performance had achieved the expected effect. He continued to fool him: "You heard it right, yes, in three years, a brand new capital of China will Chang'an, which will become a world metropolis in the next round. This is the will of China, and no one can stop it. The person who comes to replace a sand table."

At this time, another sand table that Xu Shichang had never seen before was lifted, and the red thickness slowly opened. This was a Chinese terrain sand table.

Li Changgeng smiled and said, "This is a map of China's topography. In the future, China will build several highways and railways based on Chang'an, but in my mind, these railways and highways are ineffective. In my mind, the most ideal railway is the large railway connecting Eurasia. In other words, a new silk road is newly signed. Everyone here is the envoys of various countries to China. You should have a clearer understanding of this silk road.

Some people say that shipping is better. Now it is the ocean era and the transportation costs are cheaper, but in my mind these conditions are not true. The railway is the one that is really cheaper. I want to build a real European Railway. Let’s see here is Chang'an, which was the former silk-scattered road. Chinese civilization spread from here to the West. Think about how long it takes for a ship No. 10,000 to get to the UK, and it takes me less time to transport supplies to the UK on a railway. I think all the envoys know it in their hearts.

Modern Chinese history is a humiliated modern history. Most of China's population is ruled by ethnic minorities in the north, so that some unequal treaties have emerged for Chinese rulers. But in my opinion, Li Changgeng, the content behind this unequal treaty is ridiculous, unsightly, short-sighted. China has always been a big country, a big country with a history of 5,000 years of civilization. Its civilization not only affects Asian countries, but also has a profound impact on Western countries. What you see today is China's railway and highway planning, can't you see anything from it?

The British Ambassador to China Juerdian said: "Hello Mr. Chairman, we are indeed very interested in traffic planning, but I want to know which investment scale you are. During the Qing Dynasty, we also invested in a lot of railways, but since your country's revolution, our investment in Britain has suffered a lot of losses."

Li Changgeng nodded and replied: "I cannot repay the debts for the former Qing government. This is a principle. It is useless for you, Britain, to do it. This is an unchanging principle. Your British government must also have a long-term perspective on this matter. Since the Chinese government joined the Allies, these treaty players will no longer exist. Today I discuss with the British government the cost of our China to build a railway from China to Europe!

I think this is a railway that is in the interests of the UK. This railway will open its operating capital to the world. I think Ambassador Jurden will not make it difficult for British entrepreneurs to do. Our Chinese government hopes that this is a new path of thick silk.

Zhu Erdian looked at Li Changgeng, thought about it and gave up continuing the debate with Li Changgeng. Li Changgeng was different from Yuan Shikai's reliance on him. It is not difficult to see from Li Changgeng's conversation with Japanese ambassador Hiroi, his vigilance and lack of gimmick towards Britain.

Although these are not what the British government wants to see, judging from the intimate attitude of Li Changgeng with envoys from various countries, especially European envoys, the position of the British Council is in a passive position.

After answering Zhu Erdian's question, Li Changgeng said to envoys from various countries: "The investment in this railway is something that the Chinese government must complete, but we will never restrict the entry of foreign investors, so our Chinese government will definitely respect the investment intention of the British government."

On the second day after Li Changgeng ended the state banquet, Ambassador Hirohito found Li Changgeng's office. Li Changgeng adopted an unprecedented welcome ceremony for the arrival of Minister Hirohito. In fact, along with Minister Hirohito, who came here together with Minister Hirohito, the Japanese Crown Prince in Taiwan.

Li Changgeng naturally treated Hirohito as a guy from China. To put it in Li Chang's idea, Japan is a dog, and whoever holds the leash can control the dog.

But obviously it is the UK rather than the Chinese government who holds this leash. Li Changgeng will not know the Japanese Japanese as if they were like those young people in the future. It is not that they don’t want to duli and form an alliance with China to break away from the control of Europe and the United States. China is too big and too strong, which forces Japan to surrender to the United States.

Li Changgeng's idea was to make Japan a dog in hand, and he would bite whoever he asked him to bite him, so Li Changgeng was quite welcome to the arrival of the Japanese Minister and Prince Hirohito.

Sure enough, the bumps of the train in Hirohito came to China a few days after he came to China made him realize the vastness of China. He took a train from Shanghai to Chang'an for several days and nights. Along the way, he kept looking at the map. China was so big that it was unimaginable.

After Li Changgeng saw Prince Yuren, he shook hands with him for two minutes. During this period, Li Changgeng scolded Prince Yuren and it is unknown how many words Li Changgeng scolded Prince Yuren, but it is not difficult for those who are familiar with Li Changgeng to see cunning hatred in his eyes.

Sure enough, Li Changgeng was a big trap when he opened his mouth, "Amusementor Hirohito, you don't need to introduce this, Prince Hirohito, your secret visit will be the beginning of a new chapter for Sino-Japanese relations!

Yuhien didn't expect Li Changgeng to discover his arrival, and he didn't expect Li Changgeng to say it out loud, but no matter what, even though he had been discovered, he couldn't give in. Yuhien held Li Changgeng's hand and said, "I originally thought of looking around in China. Even though the chairman knew about my arrival, my plan had been vain."

Li Changgeng held Hirohito's hand more affectionately and said, "It's not a problem. Does the Crown Prince have to look at it casually if you want to see it? China is vast in size. Can there be many places from south to north? There are climate change and customs."

Hirohito was still very young at this time, and he was still a little unclear about the methods of an old politician like Li Changgeng, and said straightforwardly: "I have seen a lot along the way. Compared with Japan, China and Japan have countless gaps in both industry and agriculture. Our Japanese Empire sincerely wants to help China grow up."

Li Changgeng asked with interest: "I don't know how the Great Japanese Empire allowed China to grow."

Hirohito smiled and said, "That's not simple. The Japanese government proposed twenty-one items to the ** government. You should not only not be able to redeem it, but also try your best to resist."

Li Changgeng smiled and said, "That can only be said that your Japanese government does not understand China's national conditions and is arrogant and stupid. It not only destroys Sino-Japanese relations, but also gives the great powers an opportunity to take advantage of it. I wonder if Ambassador Nippon has told you my promise at the Mid-Autumn Festival state banquet."

After looking at Ambassador Hirohito, he shook his head and said, "I haven't heard the Baron tell me what you are talking about."

Li Changgeng slapped his hands with regret and said, "No wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince misunderstood. I mean, if you want to build a new silk road in Chang'an, the capital of Zhonghui, the content involved in the twenty-one articles is only a small matter for this railway. I don't know what your Japanese government thinks, but I have already made it clear to you that you can borrow money from this railway, and you can also directly invest, and we can all accept it."

Hirohito thought for a while and said, "What do you all accept? What are the conditions for acceptance?"

"Li Changzhi shook his head dissatisfiedly and said, "Look at you Japanese people, it is obviously a good thing, you have to ask a question. The principle of our Chinese investment is to not allow foreign investment to exceed 50% of the country's investment ratio. Your Highness, Crown Prince, you don't need to be excited. You can ask Ambassador Hibiki, when will Japanese companies invest in China be unrestricted?"

Seeing that Hirohito had nothing to say, Li Changgeng immediately continued: "It is impossible to invest unrestricted in China, but can we make any changes? Japan is China's friendly neighbor, China has countless resources for its exploitation, Japan has the most powerful navy and army corps in Asia. We cooperate closely when opposing the Soviet Union. No matter how the relationship between China and Japan develops, it will always be beneficial if it is united and beneficial if it is divided.
