the world is at stake

Similarly, it is not easy for Chinese businessmen to go to Ukraine to make money, forcibly robbing a large market of Russian light industry.

For this reason, Emperor Pu sent the police to Odessa to drive out the Chinese businessmen. As a result, Zhou Qingfeng came to serve as a backer for his own businessmen.He was still furious about the corruption of the railway department just now, and then he was enraged by the report.

The message can be followed by:

"Chinese businessmen only want to make money, which is beneficial to dispel popular grievances in the current Russian society. If the shelves in the market are empty, housewives will only let their men take to the streets to riot."

These words obviously meant something.

"Lenin has returned to Russia from Germany."

When Emperor Pu saw this sentence, he was terrified.

China and Germany's policy toward Russia is too obvious, just wishing that this huge country would fall into civil strife.This kind of conspiracy is real, but it is difficult to resist.

Zhou Qingfeng was reminding Emperor Puda - you should deal with Lenin well.I just want to make money, don't force me to go to Russia to mess with it myself.

The social situation in Russia is very different from that of other countries, but the Russian Communist Party is undoubtedly the most combative among its political parties.

In the late period of the original "World War I", parties such as the Russian Communist Party "Bo" representing the proletariat and the Russian Communist Party "Meng" representing the bourgeoisie jointly overthrew the tsar representing the big landlords and nobles.

Through technological innovation and the introduction of foreign capital, Pu Dadi achieved remarkable results in wooing the bourgeoisie.But he failed to completely disintegrate the Russian Communist Party 'B' leading the proletariat - Lenin is still his archenemy.

The telegram was sent from the imperial capital, but Zhou Qingfeng is in Moscow right now.He's waiting because the man who changed the world is back.

Chapter 09 This style of painting is wrong!

1917 1 Month 10 Day.

Moscow, Nikolai railway station.

This is the oldest railway station in Moscow, built in 1844 in honor of Tsar Nicholas I.

A steam locomotive came from the east, whistling white steam, and stopped at the platform. 'Old Master' wore a dog fur hat and a mink coat, watched the platform through the car window, and rubbed his hands excitedly.

"I'm so excited to meet Comrade Lenin. I must take a photo with him and ask him about the many mysteries of the Russian Revolution in detail.

Later generations will definitely sort out the collection of my conversations with him and become important materials for studying the history of the early Russian revolution.I will also meet Stalin and Trotsky, the mortal enemies, and I must have a good chat with them and witness history.

Your Majesty, if I ask about the advantages and disadvantages of 'one country' and 'permanent revolution', will they turn their faces on the spot and kill me? "

'Old Master' asked solemnly, and Zhou Qingfeng, who was carrying a suitcase and dressed as an ordinary businessman, curled his lips, "Master, if your judgment is correct, then it is extremely difficult for Lenin to overthrow the Tsar now, and they may have no time to reason." you."

Leaving the soft sleeper box and stepping on the platform is like stepping into a biting ice cave.

'Old Master' was obviously wearing a thick suit, but he couldn't help shivering.Dozens of Chinese businessmen came out in front of him and behind him, and laughed and hugged the Russians who came to meet him.

Beside the platform, a dozen or so Russian policemen with sticks were squinting at the Chinese coming from the East.There was a strange look in their gray eyes, a mixture of disdain and flattery.

Two years ago, China and Russia reached an agreement to cancel the so-called "Sino-Russian secret treaty" of the previous dynasty and hand over the Middle East Railway to the Republic for management.The Russian side only kept a railway liaison office in Harbin and revoked the Russian concession.

This means that the end of the Siberian Railway leading directly to Vladivostok is controlled by the Chinese, and the dream of 'ruling the East' has come to naught, and the Russians are naturally unhappy.

But precisely because of China, the increasing railway traffic has brought considerable benefits to Russia.

In order to ensure stable transportation capacity, its railway department favored high-horsepower steam locomotives, and privately hired [-] to [-] Chinese workers to maintain and operate along the railway.

But these Chinese workers are not employed here and there. They are organized by specialized outsourcing companies, behind which is the Foreign Military Intelligence Service of the Ministry of National Defense.

Over the past few years, many Russian media have noticed the abnormal situation on their own railway arteries, and have continuously issued articles to appeal to the government, paying attention to the status quo of Asian territories being infiltrated by Chinese.

According to the description in the newspaper, the Chinese hired workers started from Harbin and have appeared in Omsk along the railway line. They are maintaining the railway on the surface, but they are actually grabbing benefits along the railway line.

Chinese workers transported obsolete steam tractors to the Far East to reclaim farmland, laid narrow-gauge railways from the United States along the railway lines, felled Siberian timber, and dug Russian coal mines.

The number of Chinese who infiltrated here is definitely not 50 to [-], but at least [-]. They have established more than a dozen large towns and villages that cannot be found on the map.

What is even more frightening is that thousands of Russian settlements along the railway are facing Chinese invasion.Cheap goods are their best weapon to get closer to the local residents.

These Chinese people often appear in summer and settle down and work locally. After planting a season of wheat, they return to China with the harvest in winter by train to escape the severe cold.

This convenience makes the locals jealous, and many girls are willing to intermarry with it.

Many honest Russians tried to prevent this despicable behavior, but found that the opponent was armed and difficult to expel.Russia did not gain anything from this, except that the wallets of corrupt officials were filled with gold rubles.

Perhaps in another 50 years, the Far East will be completely out of Russia’s control—similar rumors and reports are spreading across Russia like a biting cold wind, and Moscow’s Nikolai Railway Station is the gathering and distributing center for such information.

The Russian military police on the platform can see Chinese people from the East set foot in Moscow every day, watching Chinese goods fill the windows of Russian housewives.

During this period, some Russian women's hearts and bodies were also filled, which is normal.

As for far away Siberia, it is also very strange to Russians living in cities.But the news that one's own woman was abducted by a foreign man always arouses strong anger and rejection, so it's no wonder that the military and police look pretty.

But the Chinese came with goods and money, and their appearance greatly activated the vitality of the city.For the same product, Chinese products are easier to use than Maozi products, and it is cheaper to ship them from thousands of miles.

Officials in Moscow are also looking forward to the arrival of the Chinese, although they prohibit the normal circulation of Chinese goods under the banner of trade protection.But this is just to control the sales channels and force Chinese businessmen to bribe themselves.

The Russian military and police on the platform can collect a head fee every day, and their enthusiasm and blessings are all exchanged for money.

Zhou Qingfeng and the 'Old Master' were not with the business people. They left the station alone and went to the Chinese embassy in Moscow.

The arrival of the two was not made public. The embassy only found a residence for them on Arbat Avenue near Red Square, and did not ask anything else.

"I heard that Pushkin's former residence is nearby. His wife is known as the most beautiful woman in Russia. You can go and see it when you have time."

'Old Master Q' stands in front of the glass windows on the second floor of a Russian-style building.There are snowflakes on the street, and trams with jingling bells pass by from time to time.

Zhou Qingfeng spread out the city map given by the embassy, ​​and said in a deep voice: "The First World War did not break out, the Russian army did not suffer heavy losses, and there was no war weariness. Instead, they were more loyal to the Tsar. I can't think of any way for Lenin to break the situation."

The 'Old Master' also sighed: "The Russian Communist Party 'B' started the Moscow Uprising in 1905, but it lasted only 9 days before being bloodily suppressed.

For the next decade or so, Lenin announced every year that "the climax of the revolution is coming" and prepared for armed uprisings everywhere, but failed every time.

This is actually a bit like Sun Dapao, every time he encourages others to die, he slips the fastest every time.

If it weren't for the massacre of corpses in Europe caused by World War I, the financial collapse of the Tsarist Russian government, the boiling of people's sentiments, and the war-weary army, the Russian Communist Party's "Blood" would not have succeeded at all. "

"so what……"

"Is it possible for Russia to embark on a rural revolution?"

For this question, 'Holy Light' has been discussing for a long time, and there has been no answer.

'Back then' China engaged in 'surrounding the cities from the countryside' because there was a lack of workers in the cities and the enemies backed by foreign forces were too strong.The Turkish Communist Party can only follow the path of worker-peasant alliance.

'Once' a representative of the Communist International came to guide the Turk Communist Party to carry out the revolution, and found that the Turk Communist Party was cultivating mud-legged people in the countryside, and they were very disdainful.

Now... the leader of the Communist International is in the imperial capital.

"Old Master Q" came to see the leader of the Russian Communist Party "Bolsheviks" as a representative of the Communist International, hoping to gently remind the other party to adjust the way of struggle.

Zhou Qingfeng's task is even more special. He wants to try to contact and train a group of Russian rural revolutionary cadres-not all of the current 8000 million Tsarist Russian population are urbanites.

But the Russian countryside is different from China. Stolypin's "land reform" makes it more similar to collective farms managed by landlords and rich peasants.Therefore, the revolutionary paths of different countries cannot be applied.

In short, Emperor Pu has not done anything in vain in recent years, and the rotten tree of Tsarist Russia is far from being pushed down.

Three days after checking in, the 'Old Master' received a telegram from the embassy stating that Lenin had safely returned to Russia and arrived in St. Petersburg.The latter began to go to the factory to give speeches, calling on more workers to rise up and revolutionize.

Kamenev, a member of the Central Committee of the Russian Communist Party'Bolsheviks, came to Moscow to meet with the 'Old Master' to discuss receiving assistance from the Comintern-not surprisingly, the talks collapsed on the first day.

Maozi has no interest in making rural revolutions, and their minds are full of urban riots.But Kamenev himself did not agree with Lenin's ideas.

This is also a character.Before the "October Revolution" in the original history, he publicly issued a statement on the "New Life" in St. Petersburg, disapproving of the Russian Communist Party's decision to hold an armed uprising, directly exposing the secrets of the party organization.

If the opponent hadn't stretched his hips too much, Lenin would have been hanged long ago.

On the second day, Kamenev only wanted assistance from the Comintern, asking for '5000 million gold rubles'.

"One hundred thousand rifles, one thousand machine guns, and ten million rounds of ammunition" are needed. In addition, vehicles and artillery capable of arming ten divisions are needed, and it is best to have aircraft.

'Old Master Q' was amused.Since Xiao Jinlang decided to establish and lead the Communist International, the so-called "revolutionaries" who came to fight the autumn wind were like crucian carp crossing the river.

But with Zhou Qingfeng's "one-vote veto", the Turkish Communist Party is absolutely not to be taken advantage of - the Communist International only does what it can, and currently mainly supports the anti-imperialist and anti-feudal struggle in Southeast Asia.

For revolutionaries in other regions, the organization department of the imperial capital is currently only helping to train revolutionary teams and accumulate revolutionary strength, and will never provide meaningless military aid.

When "Old Master Q" euphemistically stated that China, as the forerunner of the "Commintern" family, does have the obligation to lead the proletariat of all countries to establish political power.

But...China is still a very backward country, with a per capita GDP of less than 20 pounds, and it is really unable to provide much foreign aid-our annual steel output is not as much as that of Tsarist Russia.

come less!

Kamenev did not know where his hot temper came from. He slapped the table angrily when he heard "Old Master" say that China was backward.

"Don't think we don't know that China robs Russian officials of more than 200 million tons of steel every year by buying Russian officials. The Siberian Railway has become the main artery for you to suck blood from Russia.

The factory owner in Moscow cried to me that the market was flooded with Chinese goods and that the dumping of Chinese goods had bankrupted him.The bank refused to lend, and he could no longer afford to stay in business.

Thousands of Russian workers are unemployed, unable to pay rent, buy bread, or burn coal.They even had to become criminals and make a living by robbing and stealing.

Chinese businessmen have become the most popular high-rollers in Moscow.In order to earn tuition fees, the girls in the university have to attend the reception held by you aggrievedly and become poor playthings.

I visited the Far East last year and saw with my own eyes that you used capital and technological advantages to plunder Russia's resources.Chinese farmers carry guns and drive steam tractors to reclaim the wilderness, while local Russian farmers can only serve as hired labor.

In Khabarovsk in the Far East alone, you have reclaimed more than 50 mu of farmland.The Chinese militia drove out our police in armored vehicles.

Such incidents have occurred more than once in the past five years.This is a blatant cross-border invasion.

You have long betrayed communism, and the resources you plunder from Russia every year exceed 5000 million gold rubles, which is a naked act of imperialist capitalists.

The bureaucrats in St. Petersburg are too corrupt. They completely ignore the needs of the people at the bottom and only care about satisfying China's greed; the compradors in Moscow have been corrupted and completely sided with China.

The landlords and rich peasants have become China's accomplices. They will desperately squeeze the landless peasants for a piece of silk curtain, an electric coffee mill, and a box of chocolate toffee.

Among all the great powers, China exploited Russia the most and most ruthlessly.

Comrade Lenin has issued a call to the whole party, calling for the overthrow of Chinese imperialism, the overthrow of the reactionary tsarist government, and the rescue of suffering Russia. "

'Old Master Q' was stunned on the spot

Hey... This style of painting is wrong!

Chapter 10 Unexpectedly

Kamenev is a well-known cannonball in the Russian Communist Party's "cloth". He has no cover for his mouth, and even Lenin dared to scold him.He dared to disclose the party's secrets to the public, and he didn't feel that he was wrong.

After being stunned by this guy, the 'Old Master' didn't know how to describe his feelings, ended the meeting in a daze, and returned to the Chinese embassy in Moscow.

Zhou Qingfeng's expression was indescribable after learning about this, a little funny, a little wanting to laugh, but it was more of a shock that the world was upside down and the three views were reversed.

Is China the heaviest and most ruthless exploiter of Russia?

How many Chinese territories you have robbed, how many concessions you have occupied, and how many times you have invaded, don’t these count?

Among the Eight-Power Allied Forces, the Russian army has the second largest number, second only to the Japanese army.Maozi did a lot of burning, killing and looting in the imperial capital.Do you have the face to call me an imperialist power?

The sun is really coming out in the west.

But Kamenev said that Lenin issued a call to the whole party of the Russian Communist Party "Bolsheviks" to list China, the banner of the Communist International, as the number one enemy, which is no small matter.

Zhou Qingfeng and the 'Old Master' quickly sent a report to the imperial capital, and ran to ask the consul in Moscow.

The consul also showed an indescribable expression, spread his hands dumbfounded, and said: "The diplomatic department pays attention to various political factions in Russia, but it is really impossible to predict that the Russian Communist Party will suddenly turn against it.

China has always abided by normal transaction rules in international trade.But the Russians messed around on their own, and we couldn't help it. "

From a global perspective, the international market is relatively closed.

Since the "China International Import Expo" was held in China five years ago, businessmen from all over the world have discovered that China's huge market is too easy to make money.This greatly stimulated the development of international business.

At the same time, Britain and France began to use large sums of money to assist Russia five years ago to stimulate industrial development.The production capacity that can be developed must have a market before it can become output, otherwise it will be of little benefit to society.

"For example, the Russians can't keep up with their own railway construction, and the supporting steel and locomotive factories can't have enough food. They found that China's railways are developing rapidly, adding two to three thousand kilometers of railway mileage every year, so they naturally desperately produce and supply.

Russian steel companies are subsidized by Britain and France, so they can grab the market at a low price.The lower the price, the more Chinese purchases, the greater the output, and the better the benefits.

Kamenev's estimate was too conservative, and he did not take into account the underreported output.In fact, Russia's annual steel production is about 1000 to [-] million tons, and one-third of it is supplied to China by rail and sea. "

Hearing this, Zhou Qingfeng covered his face with a palm, and said in a low voice:

"No wonder Qin Qing said that the annual import volume of steel has exceeded 500 million tons in the past two years. It turns out that Maozi has been dumping on us. If the domestic steel demand is not too large, the market would have been in chaos."

The consul spread his hands again, "We not only import steel, but also import a large amount of timber, crude oil, grain, and non-ferrous metals. In order to balance trade, we must naturally find ways to export products to Russia.

It just so happens that Russian light industry is very poor.my country's textiles, chemicals, electrical equipment, high-end building materials, household appliances, etc. sell very well in Russia.

As for the bankruptcy of the corresponding industries in Russia, it is its own internal problem, so what does it have to do with us?China's trade with Russia is basically balanced, and no one takes advantage of the other.

As for the Chinese farming, logging and mining in the Far East, the consulate is not clear.This is under the control of the Foreign Military Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense, and the situation has never been reported to the outside world. "

As soon as "Foreign Military Intelligence Bureau" was mentioned, the "Old Master" turned his gaze to Zhou Qingfeng, and said in his heart, "Here is the director who doesn't do personnel affairs."

Zhou Qingfeng rolled his eyes and said to himself, "I'll just use my name and run errands. I'm not responsible for the specific work."

The benefits of farming in the Far East are indeed quite large. The 'Foreign Military Intelligence Agency' is one of the few domestic intelligence systems that can make money, and even make a lot of money.

But 'flies don't bite seamless eggs'.The Russians are sick, so the Chinese cannot be allowed to take medicine.
