Chapter 296 Rolling Iron Wheel

A touch of Jinyang penetrated through the window. Li Mo stretched out and looked at Luo Sanniang, who was wrapped in the quilt around him. The corners of her mouth were shy, and Luo Sanniang, who was sleeping with a jade arm on her chest, smiled proudly.

Outside the carved window, the autumn wind gradually rises, and the heat that has ravaged the Liaodong Peninsula for more than two months seems to disappear overnight. Farther, it will even snow for a while in Heilongjiang.

Autumn is a harvest season, and the construction of the three provinces has been fully rolled out. Although Luzon's slave hunting has been suspended, natives from Sumatra, Borneo and other places are still coming.

At the beginning, the Nanyang Special Operations Team has been adapted into the Fourth Marine Regiment and temporarily living in Guam, but this has not reduced the enthusiasm of the pirates in the Nanyang area. Under the ** of money, even many original boatmen and fish bosses have turned their eyes to capturing the natives, plus tens of thousands of workers sent by Hokkaido and Japan to pay off debts, such as Today, the number of the four construction regiments has reached 400,000, so that Li Enfu also had to agree with Chen Ping to form two reserve reading regiments again, and also upgraded the cavalry regiments to increase mobility, special supervision and responsibility for patrols in the three provinces, and strengthen the management of labor.

Two new reading regiments, a Marine Corps and a cavalry regiment, suddenly increased the number of the army by 20,000 again, and the burden on the State Council increased a little. However, this time, Li Enfu did not complain, but approved the budget as soon as possible, because compared with the income brought by 400,000 hard labor, this investment is fundamental. It's nothing.

Nowadays, the division of development between the three provinces is very clear. The huge construction corps focuses on roads and infrastructure, while the construction of factories is handed over to the influx of local and other provinces. As for mining, the Korean civil war has broken out. In order to avoid the war, hundreds of thousands of North Koreans are constantly crossing the Yalu River to escape here, which is enough for the mining industry, which is not huge and very dangerous at present.

As early as after the occupation of the three northeastern provinces, Li Mo proposed to make a major transformation in the three provinces within five years, gradually changing from the current agricultural-based development model to a model of equal emphasis on workers and peasants.

The plan is huge, the dream is far away, but the reality is not optimistic.

First of all, it is the finance. At the last moment, Honolulu and Ryukyu have taken the lead in promoting this new note, which is affectionately known as blue coins (and later known as blue coins), and Zhong Wenjing of Luzon is also actively cooperating with the Ministry of Finance to carry out early publicity. 100 million blue coins have been shipped under strict protection. There, it can be put on the market after the New Year.

As for the northeast, there is still a little trouble. Because the Qing Dynasty is the silver standard, it is very difficult for people to accept blue coins at once, so it is still implemented in a small range. At present, there are still many people who do not believe it and are still using silver. Therefore, Li Enfu and others discussed and prepared to enforce it by decree after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Li Mo also promised him to adopt this method. The pain in a short period of time between currency conversion is inevitable. Finance is a fundamental matter, so it must be resolute and decisive, but the problem is that Master Li postponed the date, so he has to wait for another period of time.

In addition, compared with the happiness on the financial paper, weather and transportation have become the most critical obstacles to large-scale development. The three northeastern provinces are treasures, with vast areas and rich resources, but the weather has become the biggest obstacle.

Especially the weather, Jilin and Heilongjiang have been shrouded in heavy snow for half a year, and the traffic is extremely inconvenient. The transportation of machinery and some local materials that cannot be produced has become the biggest problem. Although Liaodong is slightly better, it is still difficult to travel for a few months. Even in railway construction, winter The hard land under the heavy snow is enough for everyone in the construction department to have a numb scalp.

Last winter alone, more than 30,000 hard laborers fell under the severe winter. Although the number of construction corps has suddenly increased to 400,000, it can only temporarily ensure some key projects.

So it is right for the State Council to concentrate on Liaodong. However, because there was almost no investment here before, there are too many projects that need to be started, especially the most critical railways, communications, seaports and highways, lack of large-scale machinery, transportation difficulties and other restrictions, so the construction these days depends on manpower. Stacked out.

Weather and transportation have become the two biggest roadblocks in front of Li Mo. At present, he can only temporarily rely on inland river boats to connect with transportation and try to transport more supplies before the river freezes, which also makes the river channel suddenly crowded.

Nearly half of the five-year plan has passed, and the construction is still like a fog. The only relief is that several important factories have started construction after priority construction and transshipment, especially several items about military industry. According to Li Enfu's estimation, there will be another year at most, with Fengtian, Yingkou, Dalian and The military equipment manufacturing industry centered on Huludao can fully meet the needs of the army.

The delicate body around him moved gently, and a seductive red skin was revealed in the slightly open brocade quilt. The two blooming pink flowers were shy and half exposed, which suddenly attracted the eyes of Master Li, making him unable to continue to think.

Li Mo didn't expect that the pirate female bandit who had been married once was still perfect, so that he almost couldn't believe the barrier when he entered last night, but the more so, the more inexplicable he felt a sense of bullying.

Is the young master born to be a bad person?

Li Mo doesn't know why he brought her back. Maybe it's the man's natural desire for exclusivity. After all, no one wants the woman he has kissed to be gentle under others.

Li Mo gently lifted the mattress a little, so that the two tall Xiufengs were completely exposed to his eyes. On the two white raw meat balls overflowing around, the blooming roses almost made him unable to hold them after a long time. If it was huge, I'm afraid that even Duan Yueer was not comparable, so he couldn't help opening his hands and pinching. Let's play.

It seemed to feel that Master Li was a bad big hand. The third woman in her arms snorted softly, but her body squeezed into Li Mo's arms. After her long eyelashes flashed twice, she had to pull the bedding with her hands.

Knowing that Sanniang had woken up, Master Li also had no scruples and buried his head between Yufeng, gasping and moaning, like a symphony in the room.

Among the four women, San Niang is the largest, a few years older than Li Mo. In addition, she has always been worried that Li Mo took her with her because she was greedy for her body, so even at the beginning of last night, she could only hold back her sour body and hook his neck to let him enjoy.

I don't know how long it took for Master Li to get out of bed naked. After seeing this, Sanniang quickly prepared to get out of bed to serve, but as soon as she moved her body, she suddenly frowned.

"Don't move, have a good rest."

"My concubine is fine." Li Mo's love made Luo Sanniang's heart sweet and struggled to get up.

" By the way, don't be concubines in the future. I'm not used to it." Sanniang, who got up on the opposite side, Li Mo could only let her serve and wear clothes. While enjoying the life of wearing clothes without even moving her fingers, she smiled and wanted San Niang to change her mouth.

"Yes..." As soon as Luo Sanniang was about to speak, Master Li shamelessly blocked her red lips with his mouth, and a [***] feeling of numbness came again through her belly pocket.

"In the future, like them, call me Brother Li, or my husband or something. As for you, it's okay to call yourself Sanniang. You're not an outsider." Master Li laughed and gently pinched the bud.

Luo Sanniang seemed to be unsteady and suddenly fell into Li Mo's arms. As soon as she nodded, she suddenly remembered that Li Mo was smaller than herself. How could she call her eldest brother? Thinking that Li Mo had forgotten, he shyly reminded me, "I'm older than you."

"Oh? Big? How big is it?" Master Li raised his eyebrows and deliberately stared at the bulging belly pocket.

"Oh." San Niang took a look and quickly pulled the flap, but she was born with a pair of **. On the contrary, it was cheaper for Master Li to pull around, and finally had to surrender helplessly.

After a period of time, she finally put on her clothes. When Luo Sanniang stood behind her and flattened her coat for him, Li Mo smiled and said, "That's right, you're ready to go out with Yue'er later."

"I..." Luo Sanniang's body trembled gently and looked at Li Mo's back. An excitement flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she was afraid that she heard it wrong. She quickly said, "Sister Yue'er, will you go with me?"

"No, you went with Yue'er." Li Mo knew what Luo Sanniang was worried about. He turned around and hugged the slender waist that made him unable to put it down last night, and smiled, "You are my woman, my wife of Li Mo! What's the big deal about going out together? Don't you want to go?"

"No, I..." San Niang raised her head and looked at Li Mo's eyes getting foggy. You know, she was just a low-born pirate. She thought that Li Mo was only greedy for beauty and body to take her with her. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Li Mo took the initiative to admit himself and took her out with her, which was equivalent to telling the whole world that she was his woman!

It's not the kind of woman who is used by the golden house to be greedy for enjoyment, but Mrs. Li who can be taken with her and face the people of the world.

"One of them!" Master Li added a sentence in his heart, kissed Luo Sanniang's blushing cheek with a smile, gently patted his buttocks, and said with a smile, "Go and rest for a while. I'll take you by train in the afternoon. There are a lot of people this time. Don't forget to dress up beautifully!"

"Hmm..." Poor past, it was said that he killed people without blinking an eye. Luo Da, who was in a group of pirates, was finally tossed by Master Li for a night**, and finally turned into a kitten. When he nodded shyly and got into the quilt again, he began to think hard about what to wear and how to dress for a while--

A few days after the opening of the navy, Lushunkou was once again full of people. This time, everyone did not come to see the warships, but to witness the smooth opening of the first railway on the northeast.

After nearly two years of construction, the railway from Lushun to Fengtian will finally be tested. The reason why it can be so fast is that in addition to the Ministry of Construction has invested great manpower and material resources on this most critical and the first railway that must be modeled, with two construction soldiers. Tuan, plus nearly 10,000 Chinese workers who have built a huge railway network for the United States, almost all rushed to this railway that condensed everyone's hope and painstaking efforts.

Especially standing around, looking at the head of the train waiting for the experiment with black smoke, the faces of these Chinese workers who were cheated or abducted and went to the United States to build railways for foreigners all red.

Since Master Li started Honolulu, these Chinese in the United States have come to settle there in large numbers, but because Honolulu and Ryukyu were too small before, they could not give full play to their accumulated ability to build railways in the United States. It was not until the young master occupied the northeast, put forward a huge railway plan, and began to recruit experience. After the railway workers, they seemed to see hope. Many people even said that they didn't want money, as long as they could build a railway for their motherland, even laying a sleeper or hitting a rivet.

These people are all good hands who have experienced in the United States. Among other things, the experience of dealing with various complex terrains is even more professional than many people who study engineering. Maybe they can't write or say it, but they can definitely do it!

This is the ability of ordinary Chinese people.

When they joined the railway construction army of the Ministry of Construction, this precious wealth made Li Enfu take special care of them, and divided them into groups, each leading a construction regiment to work at night, even in winter.

The sweat and hard work of the past two years have finally resulted in the completion of the Lufeng Railway. Although the railway at this time is not comparable to the complex railway network of later generations, and the construction process is much simpler, the real opening has connected Lushun Fengtian and all along the way, which will greatly promote the flow of materials and people.

The soldiers of the division who were ordered to protect pulled up a human wall on the periphery, and the inner circle was handed over to the night eagle and Li Mo's personal guard camp. No one would think that such a tight protection was a little excessive. After all, Li Mo had an accident in Liaodong not long ago, so even the Intelligence Department sent a large number of secret senttles to keep a close eye on the surroundings. .

When Lie said that it was a little deflected, several black cars finally appeared in everyone's sight. Even when Li Mo got out of the car, he was shocked by the surrounding scene. He didn't expect that so many people would come today.

As soon as Duan Yueer in red and Luo Sanniang, who was dressed in blue with a generous flag, appeared, they directly stole the limelight of Master Li. Suddenly, there was a whisper around them. Looking at the young grandmother of the two people who were more beautiful than Huajiao, everyone was envious, especially some people who knew Luo Sanniang's details of the political axe, and they didn't expect this. The boss who used to be the master of the Nanyang, dressed up so brightly, began to admire the eyes of Master Li.

After being followed by so many eyes, the two beautiful women couldn't stand it anymore. They hurried to Li Mo's side to hide. After seeing the tall locomotive, Luo Sanniang, who had never seen the train, straightened her eyes and quickly asked, "This is the train. It's so big."

After hearing this, several officials of the Ministry of Construction quickly began to introduce the young master and two young grandmothers. Li Mo was nothing. On the contrary, the two women smiled after hearing some anecdotes in the railway construction.

Li Mo did not go to see the train. This old-fashioned steam locomotive did not arouse any interest in him. What's more, it was one of the 20 locomotives purchased from the United States. Although the self-produced locomotive has been included in the plan, it will take at least a few more years.

Only when he saw the dual-track system he proposed, did he smile slightly. Although the cost of building the monorail used in many countries is higher than that used in many countries, the carrying capacity is also higher and more efficient, which is more in line with the practice of later generations.

After crossing the track, Li Mo immediately walked to the former railway workers in the United States next to him and saw the young master walking to a crowded place. Du Dazhuang wanted to remind him, but he was stopped by Yan Fu.

"It's okay. Just be more careful."

"Hmm." Although Du Dazhuang was worried about the young master's safety, he followed Li Mo for so long and knew that in general, he quickly gave a look at several subordinates behind him.

Li Mo came with two young grandmothers in person, and immediately made these Chinese workers who returned home restless. They crowded forward to see the young master one after another, which scared the soldiers to stare for fear of problems.

"Thank you, thank you for your contribution to this country."

Li Mo held the first rough hand, looked at the excited opening of his mouth, and even some Mu Na's face. He looked around and shouted with a smile, "Thank you!"

"Many of you have built railways for Americans all their lives, and now you have come back with experience and technology. You are the most precious wealth of this country!"

"So I want to set up a monument here. I want each of you to be famous and engrave all your names. For nothing else, I want to tell future generations that this is the railway you have built and the greatest contribution made to the motherland by those wandering outside!"

"The monument is handed down, and it is famous for thousands of history!"

At this moment, all the Chinese workers were a little dull, and the restless crowd was suddenly silent. For the Chinese, it is probably the highest dream in their lives to build a monument, and they are just ordinary railway workers who do the lowest jobs, but the young master wants to build a monument for them and let them be praised for a hundred generations!

"Young master!"

The Chinese workers in the front row burst into tears excitedly after hearing this sentence. They bent their legs and wanted to kneel down. Li Mo quickly helped them up, and Yan Fu and others on the left and right also quickly helped up these Chinese workers who had been repairing the railway all their lives.

In an instant, the whole crowd seemed to be blown up. When Li Mo took the initiative to pull up the timid big hands one by one, countless palms began to stretch out of the cracks excitedly, hoping to shake it with the young master. Even if he touched the corners of his clothes, he was satisfied!

Li Mo smiled, tirelessly shook hands with them one by one, and shouted again, "I saw it today. You use your experience!" Use your skills! Use blood and sweat! For the first lottery of our Northeast book, this will be the starting point! From today on, we Chinese can pat our chests and tell those foreigners! We can build our own railway, and we have to build the railway to every place where Chinese live!"

"Let's work together to leave a complete railway network for this land and our descendants!"

"Let's build a home together!"

"Build a home together!"

"Build a home together!"

The shouting spread around along the sea breeze, and I don't know who took the head. When Li Mo, Yue'er and San Niang, who were so excited with their beautiful red eyes, boarded the train carriage, everyone slapped red in the shaking of a flash.

The whistle was loud and thick smoke was rolling. The wheels of the locomotive, which had been waiting for a long time, began to slow down, as if to indicate that a new world was opening the curtain in front of all Chinese doors. The heavy iron wheels were rolling forward little by little with the arrival of Master Li.

"This should not belong to the 20th century of Europe and the United States, but to us Chinese!" By the window of the car, Li Mo pinched his left hand and danced his right arm with a smile
