Chapter 114: Hands Rain

Zhang Hanqing had already prepared the article, and Zhang Zuolin had the person publish it in full in Fengtian Shibao in a timely manner, detailing this public case. Outsiders don't know who the main writer is, but they see that the writing is brilliant. At the end of the article, he asked bluntly: "Where is the people's fat and people's ointment now?" The wealth scraped from the people of Fengtian will not repel the wolf with the front foot and enter the tiger's den with the back foot, right? In whose hands will the arms of the nation, which are the weapons of the nation, go into? If so, then there is a nest of snakes and rats in the world, what axiom can there be? What is there to ask for the lives of the people? The people of Mukden want to see whose pockets all this stolen money has gone into?! ”

The characters in the case, Feng Delin took the case and turned the clouds and rain, Duan Zhigui's soul was scattered and embarrassed, and Zhang Zuolin's image of asking for the people's life and righteousness jumped on the paper. However, although Duan Zhigui is also corrupt, after all, he is an important member of the Central Committee. Such an insult to a government official or immediate boss is not something that ordinary people can understand. Although Feng Delin's actions also have the element of asking for the people's lives, they are too treacherous and are all for their own selfish interests, unlike Zhang Zuolin, who is dedicated to the public.

The Fengtian High Procuratorate, the Fengtian Provincial Council, and the Fengtian Party Alliances have questioned Zhang Zuolin about how to deal with it, or they have published newspapers or come to inquire about the results. After Duan Zhigui cried to Yuan Shikai about Fengtian and his party, Yuan Shikai also sent a message to the provincial government to ask for a return, and asked Feng Delin what he wanted! All major newspapers and periodicals in Beijing and Tianjin reposted the news of the "Fengtian Times" on the front pages, and some even criticized it by means of editorials, while others excavated Feng Delin's ancestors for eight generations to verify whether Feng had a backbone in the back of his head. Although Lao Yuan is an upside-down camel, his strength is still not small.

Seeing the turbulence of the crowd, Zhang Zuolin thought that "it can't be good", so he had to see Feng Delin in person and consult how to deal with it.

How could Feng Delin have thought that one thing could be so big? He's just trying to take advantage of it, okay? To deal with public opinion, this old man has no experience at all, and he wants to send someone to seal the "Fengtian Times", seize the chief editor and editor-in-chief, and see if they dare to write nonsense?

When did he still use this method of reviving the literary prison to do things on the propaganda front? Even the big man is as rough as Zhang Zuolin disdains it, and he also knows how to coax and deceive the literati, because the literati cherish that little bit of style too much. Feng Delin wants to move strong, which is something that adds fuel to the fire. In addition, the person behind the "Fengtian Times" can be guessed with his toes that he must be related to Zhang Hanqing, and Lao Zhang is a doorman, because the initiator Zhang Hanqing was instructed by him.

Feng Delin's subordinates were not without understanding, and his brigade commanders Ji Jinchun and Zhang Haipeng all advised him: "The top priority is to get rid of this matter as soon as possible, otherwise we will be angry and our 28th Division will not be a good person." Besides, this thing is not done authentically, even if it is robbed, it will be announced to the world, but I am afraid that people will not know, isn't this a intention to make Duan Zhigui jealous of the teacher?

Feng Delin also thought that ninety percent of it was Zhang Zuolin who made trouble. This man is a big man on the surface, but in fact he is very good. He first instigated himself to come out and become a wicked person, and now he has another image of a "righteous man" playing the Quartet card, which is really tolerable and unbearable!

How to get rid of it? Zhang Zuolin will not be stupid enough to hide for him that the property has been handed over to the public, for the sake of today's plan, only if the benefits are all wet, he will be willing to pocket a little for himself. He asked Zhang Zuolin tentatively: "Brother Yuting, you and I have both contributed to the matter of driving the section, do you see if I can add a part of the money to five, brother, you managed to settle the matter?" ”

Zhang Zuolin is now the nominal civil affairs envoy, and he has the power to say everything in the provincial government, give him some benefits, and pull him to do the aftermath, which is simpler and more reliable than any method, after all, the bell still needs to be tied to the bell.

Zhang Zuolin heard the sound of the strings: the co-authoring of the stolen money (public funds) is half of one person, but the matter of arms has not been mentioned, is it possible that at this time, Lao Feng still wants to swallow it privately? Two million dollars is good, but no matter what, there are no real weapons. He newly equipped ten battalions and received 10,000 guns from the central government. But the army can't just have guns? There must also be artillery, baggage, military horses, ammunition... Besides, there's still consumption, isn't it? It's not like trying to buy arms when you get the money yourself, you can still get cheap Feng Delin if you have ready-made ones!

He persuaded him earnestly: "Brother Ge Chen, who do you think of me Zhang Zuolin?" Do you think I'm asking you for an advantage? Now that Mukden is full of people, I think this matter will settle down first. If my brother doesn't say anything about it, I can't hide it from everyone. The money can be paid to the provincial treasury first, and the elder brother will also appropriately divide a little with Wu Ma and the two town guards, and I will try to settle the account. ”

Feng Delin was almost angry to death, don't look at Zhang Zuolin's high-sounding words, he has only one scheming, asking for money. Half of the stolen money went into the provincial treasury, didn't it go into his pocket in disguise? What can't hide the mouths of the people? It's you who keep opening your mouth! The most hateful thing is that he has used himself to earn enough benefits, and his position has stabilized himself, and now he doesn't even want to share this money with himself!

However, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads, this matter is quite a big trouble, and if it continues to ferment, it will inevitably affect his status. Feng Delin retreated and begged: "Brother Yuting, there are only two divisions in Fengtian, you and me, and in the end, the stolen money is only divided between our two families." It's better to do this, I'll withdraw half of it first, and the two families will divide it equally, and it will be considered to be paid to the treasury, what do you think? ”

He has worked hard to endure all kinds of unjust accusations and made the benefits that he has only gotten from evil, and now he is asking for half of the share with others, and he wants to let the other party have a good reputation, Lao Feng's heart is dripping blood. He felt like he had been stabbed.

Pingkong got a lot of benefits, but Zhang Zuolin was still not satisfied: "It's still not appropriate to think about it." Fengtian also has the rear and right patrol teams, and they can't guarantee that there are no complaints. According to Zuolin's intentions, I still have to take care of them this time. As for the fact that the arms are really hot, the brothers dare not ask for them, and it is better to hand them over to the central government; Half of the official money was paid to the treasury, which made me calm the voice, of course, Brother Ge Chen also appropriately gave a little sweetness to the two patrol teams, otherwise they kept making trouble, and this matter has not subsided, after all, my brother's face is not good-looking. As for Zuo Lin, he just wants to calm down the incident as soon as possible, and he will not ask for half a cent of this official money, and whether it is feasible still needs to be figured out by Brother Ge Chen. ”

Damn, this is a robbery while the fire is burning! I still don't agree to divide half of the official funds, and the rest has to give favors to Wu and Ma, and I still fucking figure it out, figure it out! Feng Delin's heart was dripping blood: the two patrol teams were unwilling to share the money, but what made people even more angry was that Zhang Zuolin quietly lost half of the benefits, and forced him to give part of it to others, but it was Zhang Zuolin who had a good reputation, after all, he was the overseer of Fengtian!

It's all inappropriate at the beginning: it's not appropriate not to give it, it's not appropriate to give half of it, and if you give the big head, you won't be afraid that others will have opinions and be able to suppress it, anyway, you want to get a piece of the pie from him. I ended up with a gray face, but in the end I was making wedding clothes for others, isn't this a fucking bully!

New hatred and old hatred came to my heart at once. His qualifications are older than Zhang Zuolin, but he became his own boss later; wanted to get some benefits, but he was stabbed by him and took the big head. Zhang Zuolin not only slapped his face, but also rode on his head to! Feng Delin gritted his teeth with hatred, was ashamed and humiliated, and secretly swore that after this matter is over, he will not find the field again, and he will not be a man!

Half of the two million money goes to the "public", that is---- that is, it goes into Zhang Zuolin's pocket in disguise, and the remaining three families will divide it. Wu Junsheng and Ma Longtan, who got benefits for no reason, would not believe that Feng Delin would be so good, so the favor fell on Zhang Zuolin, but on the surface, Lao Zhang didn't take a penny!

One can imagine the pain of Feng Delin when he handed over the money, but what was even more painful was to hand over all the arms. He himself doesn't have the face to negotiate with the central government anymore, what if Lao Yuan has to disgust him and let Duan Zhigui deal with it? To do this, it will fall on Lao Zhang.

Speaking from the heart, Zhang Zuolin can bear the heart and not "return all the stolen money" to the public, but when faced with that batch of arms, the general who grew up in the war can't be calm, so he wants to delay the time and wait for the "great changes in the future" mentioned by Zhang Hanqing. His wishful thinking was that after another month or two, the situation would be in his favor, and then he could swallow it boldly.

But Zhang Hanqing smiled and said: "There is no need, since my father has made a fair gesture, then don't lose a big one because of a small one, and you should continue to do it to the end." And with the mind of the person in the capital, the current mentality is probably thinking about how to make his father not rebel because of the situation, he will definitely take the opportunity to do favors, and the result will be better. ”

So Zhang Zuolin pretended to call Yuan Shikai to ask how to handle this munition? Sure enough, as long as Lao Yuan is not stupid, he will definitely be a favor---- Lao Zhang dared to do even robbery for the sake of arms, but now that he has arms in hand, he will generously take the initiative to "request" to dispose of it? Lao Yuan, a governor and patrol envoy, is willing to let the grace that was so hard to be given go down the drain because of this bit of ammunition? Therefore, with a stroke of the pen: "In an eventful season, everything will be handled by General Zhang himself, and there is no need to hand it over." ”

As expected.

Now, Zhang Zuolin can legally distribute this munition---- this is not Feng Delin's, not even Duan Zhigui's, but the Central Committee approved it for him to use. Therefore, justifiably, they went around in Zhang Zuolin's army and disappeared in the army again.

Poor Lao Zhang is immersed in the pride of his serial plan succeeding. A million dollars and a large number of arms blinded him. However, Zhang Hanqing was very sober, and he poured cold water on his father at the right time: "Father, Assistant Feng is a person who has never suffered losses, this time he has taken such a big turn, it is impossible not to have an opinion on his father, beware of him stumbling on his father." ”

Zhang Zuolin is full of confidence: "Lao Tzu is the state-appointed governor of Fengtian, and he is also responsible for civil affairs. Lao Tzu is not less than him, no less money than him, he Feng Delin is just my deputy, what big waves can he stir up? ”

Under pressure from all sides, most of the stolen goods that Feng Delin spit out were "confiscated into the warehouse" by Zhang Zuolin and turned into his pocket. But it's very strange that the straightforward Fengtian people feel that Zhang Zuolin is still affectionate and righteous, and he doesn't do things that fall into the ground.
