Sitting in the car, he looked at the scenery in southern Yunnan and wondered why Dunn was looking for him.
Shen Hao was disdainful of Tang Jirao, who was known as the Yunnan King.
This guy studied in the R University and was considered to have made some achievements. He opposed the restoration of Big Head Yuan, but he declared independence himself. In the end, he even claimed the entire Jingguo.
This guy also advocated learning from the United States. He believed that China was too big and should be governed by the provinces. It should not be concentrated and should be established as a federation. This was also the reason why this guy was called the Commander-in-Chief of the Eight Provinces of Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hubei, Henan, Shaanxi, Hunan, and Fujian.
Logically speaking, Xiangxi should also be under this guy's leadership.
The thing that Shen Hao looked down on the most was that this guy was really inferior to Big Head Yuan.
After Big Head Yuan came to power, he really banned tobacco. In recent years, there were very few people who openly grew tobacco in the country.
After Big Head Yuan died, Tang Jiyao immediately changed and started to plant smoky soil.
This was because the continuous ban on smoking had caused the cultivation of poppy in the country to almost disappear, and the import of opiates from India and India had basically stopped.
However, there were still a large number of people who smoked in the country, and the price of the drug was rising steadily, surpassing gold at one point.
Seeing that it was profitable, the warlords used all kinds of means to lure and even force the farmers to switch to the field of Opium.
The warlords of the Republic of China, in just a few years after Big Head Yuan's death, had 13 major wars and hundreds of "
Unfortunately, few people in the country talked about this history, be it the officials or other experts.
Tang Shaoyi said," Since the 14th year of the Republic of China, there have been several wars, all of which were caused by the use of drugs. Therefore, it can be called the 14-year Opiment War." Some people say that the damage caused exceeded that of the allied forces of the 81 countries.
Because the climate in southern Yunnan was similar to that of India and India, Tang Jiyao used the excuse of " prohibition to levy taxes " to promote the cultivation of opiates in the whole province. All the counties in the province had been assigned planting tasks, and they could only exceed the quota and not reduce it.
Tang Jiyao had almost turned southern Yunnan into a kingdom of drugs, with an annual output of 60 million to 100 million taels. That was why the Yunnan army had become one of the most well-equipped troops in the country.
The widespread use of the drug had brought about a rotten street. From the rich to the poor, one could see its harm.
The car soon arrived at the Military Governor's Office in Diannan.
It had to be said that Tang Jiyao had given Shen Hao enough face.
As soon as the car arrived at the street where the Military Governor was, they saw a red carpet spread all the way to the Military Governor's Office.
The entire journey was one mile, and one could see how luxurious it was.
Both sides were filled with soldiers, and a band was playing music at the side. There were also people dancing lions in the square at the entrance.
There were quite a number of onlookers around, and they were all extremely curious.
" Who is the Overseer welcoming today?'
'I don't know. He should be a high-ranking official too.'
'Could it be that he's from the capital?'
"Since when did Overseer Tang care about the capital? Last time, he just entered Sichuan and fought a battle. He wouldn't give the capital so much face."
"I don't know. Look, the car is coming."
Soon, when the car stopped, everyone craned their necks to see who it was.
"Look, the Tang Mansion's Head Butler has come out personally."
Under the sunlight, when the car door opened, he saw a person dressed in a well-ironed gray suit.
A head of long, short hair that was different from this era was casually placed on his smooth forehead. His facial features were handsome, his skin was fair, and his eyebrows were sharp. His gaze was gentle and made people like him. His high nose bridge looked sunny and full of energy.
His back was straight and he had an imposing appearance. His entire person was filled with confidence, confidence that came from his bones.
Everyone was stunned when they saw a young and handsome man get out of the car.
"Who is this young man? He's so handsome."
"I don't know?"
'To be able to make the Overseer so grand, he must not be an ordinary person.'
Shen Hao didn't expect Tang Jiyao to make such a big scene. Not only did he have a crowd to watch the show, but he also arranged for reporters.
As soon as Shen Hao got out of the car, a man in his fifties hurriedly smiled and said,""Division Commander Shen, I am Commander Tang's butler. Welcome to be our guest."
At this moment, the reporters snapped photos.
The cameras at this time were all wooden cameras with large frames. The flash of the light was extremely dazzling.
Shen Hao didn't understand. Why did Tang Jiyao make such a big fuss?
What could a reporter's exposure bring him?
"Salute!" The sentries on both sides immediately saluted.
The surrounding people were dumbfounded.
Teacher? Such a young teacher?
In this era, the highest official in a province was the military governor, and his military rank was the division commander.
Old crooked Luo had never been a division commander in his entire life. Division commanders were the dreams of all small warlords.
A man in his early twenties had become a commander. What kind of joke was this?
Suddenly, someone thought of something.
'I know, he's the young master who spends money like dirt, Shen Hao, Commander Shen.'
"Yes, yes, yes. Now that you mention it, I remember. I saw his deeds in the newspaper the day before yesterday."
"What did you do?"
'It's said that this Young Master Shen donated 500,000 yuan to the disaster victims in Xiangxi.'
"My darling?"
"That's right. Big Head Yuan personally appointed him as a teacher and sent a message to the whole country to learn from him."
" Not only that, I just came back from Beijing the day before yesterday and was doing business there.
You guys don't know how famous this man is. He's much more awesome than the four great young masters.
" Can his fame surpass the Four Great Young Masters?'
"Tsk, the four young masters aren't even worthy of carrying his shoes."
'The four great young masters can't compare to him. I've just heard of his fame.'
"Then I can only say that you are ignorant. The entire city is filled with discussions about this Young Master Shen. Nowadays, storytellers love to talk about his deeds. Tell me about his deeds and you will know that the four young masters are nothing."
"What's the matter? Hurry up and tell me. I'm getting curious."
"It's said that this man is known to be a spendthrift. Now it seems that he really is."
" Luo Minda, one of the Four Great Young Masters, is awesome, right? Her father was Prince Zhan's sister and the Imperial Consort of Master Guangxu. She was the one who chased the Bai family out of the 49 City back then, but she was so suppressed by Young Master Shen that she could not even breathe.
Luo Minda was known as a famous Beijing opera ticket, and it was common for her to tip actors in Beijing. In the end, she met a tough opponent.
'Stubborn? Who is it?
" Nonsense, of course it's this Commander Shen? He insisted on competing with this lord in the arena to reward him.
"This man is truly bold and overbearing when he makes a move. Without saying a word, he immediately tipped 50,000 yuan, scaring Luo Minda, one of the four young masters of the Republic of China, into fleeing like a rat."
The surrounding people exclaimed in disbelief!
"Oh my god!"
" 50,000 yuan for a single actress?'
'He's indeed bold.'
"This is just an appetizer. I thought this man would stop after giving out tips, but guess what?"
"What's wrong?" Everyone hurriedly asked,
'Cough, cough, my throat is a little dry.'
Everyone instantly understood. A pear seller hurriedly handed a pear over and said,'Eat a pear first and continue.'
'That's right, I'll treat you to a drink later.'
"It's fine if we drink. Since everyone wants to hear it, I'll tell them." After saying that, the man took a bite of the pear and smiled.
