Chapter 292 Return (7)
Li Songchen and Gao Jun were very satisfied with the two children. After discussing, they decided to change their surnames to the two children. Because the boy was too young and had no clue yet, and with the deliberate guidance of the staff at the shelter, they regarded Li Songchen and Gao Jun as their own parents, so if they did not change their surnames, it would be easy to miss the truth. If the boy changed his surname, the girl would not change it, then it would be troublesome in the future. Therefore, they would simply change their surnames. The boy took Li Songchen's surname and was named Li Zilin, and the girl took Gao Jun's surname and was named Gao Xiulin. This was the best of both worlds.
When the two returned to Luo Yue's house with their adopted children, Luo Yue's family had received the news first. So Luo Yue and Zhou Weiying also held a small welcome ceremony for the two new little guests, which was also to create a warm and friendly atmosphere, so that the two children could eliminate strangeness and inferiority, and dissolve into normal family life as soon as possible. Moreover, among the five children in Luo Yue's family, 4 of them were adopted, so they had more sympathy and friendly feelings for the two new little guests. Although they were not old, they were more willing to release more kindness and care to them.
Sure enough, with the efforts of Luo Yue's family, of course, the children actually had their own communication methods. In addition, the four Hakkas raised by Luo Yue's family also played a significant role. After all, most children like small animals such as cats and dogs. In short, it was not long. Gao Xiulin and Li Zilin eliminated a lot of strangeness. The 7 children and 4 dogs quickly played together, laughing and barking, and the vocals and dogs also rang in the yard of Luo Yue's family.
Li Songchen and Luo Yue went to the room to chat, while Gao Jun and Zhou Weiying sat on the terrace at the door, watching the children and the puppy playing in the yard, Gao Jun said, "Weiying, thank you so much. It made these two children laugh so quickly."
Zhou Weiying said: "It's nothing, but it's not enough to let the children accept you completely and integrate into your family. It's not enough to rely on the current situation alone. You still have to do a lot of things! These four children were in our family, but it took them several months to completely eliminate their emotions as outsiders and regard this place as their home."
Gao Jun nodded. Although she is nearly 10 years older than Zhou Weiying, she is beyond the reach of being a mother. After all, Zhou Weiying is now a mother of five children, and in recent months, she has lived with five children alone, which is enough to make Gao Jun look up to him, so he said: "I know that you can be my teacher in this regard, so I will ask you more questions these days."
Zhou Weiying smiled and said, "Sister Gao, don't say that. In fact, many things were taught by my mother. In addition, I still have a lot of things to learn in this regard. In addition, every child and every family are different, so my experience can only be used as a reference for you at most. How to get along with these two children depends on you to explore yourself. However, as long as you truly care about them and get along with them carefully, you will definitely be able to cultivate family affection. Of course, I will try my best to give you some suggestions in the past few days."
While talking, when it was time to eat, Luo Yue's family prepared a sumptuous meal. In fact, the dietary conditions in the shelter are not bad, and the East China government has strict supervision of this aspect. However, the adults' care for children and the warm family atmosphere cannot be experienced in the shelter.
During the evening break, at Zhou Weiying's suggestion, a bed was added to the bedrooms of Li Songchen and Gao Jun to let the two children sleep, so that the children could feel the care of adults for them.
The next day, Luo Yue, Zhou Weiying and Li Songchen all went to work, but only Zhou Weiying stayed at home to take care of the children.
On this day, the government meeting officially began, and local officials from all over the country gathered. Of course, there were many resolutions to be discussed at this meeting. The first thing passed was to establish Wuhan City, combining the three towns of Wuchang, Hanyang and Hankou into one.
Of course, there is no objection among the elders to establish Wuhan City. After all, it has been proven in the old time and space that the establishment of Wuhan City is of great significance to the political, economic, industrial and transportation development of the central region.
But the new Wuhan mayor is a problem, because after the three towns are integrated, Wuhan will become a major city with several major governments in the East China government, which is not something that ordinary local officials can manage. In fact, the East China government is not without people who manage big cities, but these people either have to be at home and are inconvenient to transfer to their posts; or they have achieved success and are unwilling to go to Wuhan to explore again. The city of Wuhan has just been established, not to mention that it is a waste of money, but it is also starting from scratch. In addition, Wuhan will be the East China government to move south in the future to unify the logistics base of the country, so the mayor of Wuhan must also have experience in cooperating with the army.
In the end, the Executive Yuan Personnel Office proposed a candidate, Gao Jin, the current mayor of Shenyang. Among the local officials of the East China Government, Gao Jin was actually considered the Later Jin Dynasty, but his political achievements in recent years were quite dazzling and his promotion was very fast. Now he has become the mayor of Shenyang. Although she has been in the position of Shenyang Mayor for less than half a year, it is appropriate to be transferred to the mayor of Wuhan in terms of political achievements and qualifications. Moreover, when Gao Jin was in Jinzhou, he cooperated closely with the army, not only defeating the attack of the Mongolian bandit army, but also laying a solid foundation for his later attack on Mongolia and attacking Kulun. At the same time, Gao Jin's husband Ouyang Longxing was the army, which also made Gao Jin's cooperation with the army more convenient.
It can also be said that Gao Jin is the most suitable candidate to be the mayor of Wuhan, but there are two problems. First, Gao Jin's term as mayor of Shenyang is too short. Once the transfer of office will not only make Gao Jin's work in Shenyang in the past few months in vain, but also has a significant impact on Shenyang's stability and work. After all, the East China Government has not ruled Shenyang for a long time. Of course, it is not a good thing to change the governing officials so frequently. Second, Gao Jin's husband Ouyang Longxing served in the Northeast Military Region. Once Gao Jin was transferred to Wuhan Mayor, Ouyang Longxing's position also needs to be transferred to the Central Military Region, otherwise the couple will be separated. However, this not only requires the full cooperation of the Military Commission, but also depends on whether there is a suitable position in the Central Military Region.
However, these two problems can be solved by the East China Government. Although it is a little troublesome, the nomination was finally passed. Of course, it depends on Gao Jin's personal attitude in the end. If Gao Jin is unwilling to work in Wuhan, the Executive Yuan will not be able to force him.
The second resolution was also related to Wuhan, which was to pass the resolution to build the Beijing-Han Railway. In fact, the Beijing-Han Railway was established during the Qing Dynasty and was the first railway prepared by the Chinese Qing court to build itself after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894. Sheng Xuanhuai, the Guandao of Tianjin, was the supervisory minister. It was a railway from Lugou Bridge to Hankou in Beijing, so it was also the Luhan Railway and an important part of the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway.
The Lugou Bridge to Baoding section of the Jinghan Railway was handed over to the Belgian company in October 1897. Therefore, the Qing government officially started construction at the end of 1898, from both the north and south ends at the same time. In the old time and space, the railway was completed and opened to traffic on April 1, 1906, with a total length of 1,214 kilometers. However, due to the emergence of the East China Government in this era, the Qing government built this railway much slower than in the old time and space. After the East China Government controlled Henan Province, the north-south connection was cut off, and the Qing government's Jinghan Railway was completely stopped, and the completion part was less than half.
At that time, the East China Government had not occupied the entire Hubei territory, and was busy building the railway line between Shandong and Henan. After the Far East War, the railway construction was concentrated in the Northeast region, so the construction of the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway has never been restarted. Although the East China Government is very clear about the important role of the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway in China's north-south transportation, exchanges, social and economic development.
But now the East China Government not only occupied the entire Hubei territory, but also the Beijing area has been included in control. Therefore, the construction of the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway has been officially put on the agenda. Of course, this also received the full support of Zhan Tianyou, the Minister of Railways of the East China Government. Moreover, the terminus of the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway after the restart will no longer be just at Hankou, but will extend all the way to the Xianning and Puqi areas south of the Yangtze River, because this is to facilitate the transportation of materials when the East China Government is heading south to unify the whole country. Of course, this means that a bridge with trains is needed to be built on the Yangtze River.
However, Zhan Tianyou was prepared for this, because when the Qing court established the project, he had already begun to design the Yangtze River Bridge. After all, Zhan Tianyou considered that it was not limited to the Beijing-Han Railway, but the entire Beijing-Guangzhou Railway. Therefore, the Yangtze River Bridge was an inevitable difficulty and must be overcome. So Zhan Tianyou went to Hankou many times to examine the hydrological geology, survey and map geology, determine the design plan, draw drawings, etc., and now he has completed a very mature construction plan. This is also the main reason why the East China Government dared to extend the end of the Beijing-Han Railway to the south of the Yangtze River. In terms of building the railway, Zhan Tianyou was absolutely authoritative, and no one among the elders could replace Zhan Tianyou.
However, the Jinghan Railway is not the second five-year project, and such a large-scale project has to be forced into it, which will be a huge test for the planning, manpower and material allocation of the East China Government. However, the role of the Jinghan Railway is too huge. Once it is completed and opened to traffic, the benefits of the East China Government are immeasurable. Therefore, after repeated arguments by multiple departments, it is finally believed that the East China Government is still able to complete the construction of this railway. First of all, from the perspective of funds, the East China Government is not bad, and most of the compensation after the Far East War is useless; the technology may be a little bad, but if it is really not good, you can ask for foreign aid. Germany and the United States can provide technical support to the East China Government. Moreover, the East China Government has a great god Zhan Tianyou who is in charge and coordinated the command, so it will not be completely controlled by others.
