The difference between a great man and a small man is that it is also love, and a great man can not be trapped by the love of his children, but can find opportunities in it. In just one night, the role of the Huang family as a predator in grain management in Northeast China was established. Since then, the Huang family has risen to prominence in the financial and financial circles, and has also brought endless help to the young marshal.

At a time when land reform was in full swing and the banditry and counterinsurgency had dawned, Zhang Zuolin's government held a meeting in November to comprehensively launch the first three-year economic development plan for the three eastern provinces, and the comprehensive construction of Northeast China conceived by Zhang Hanqing was vigorously launched. At this time, the results of the land reform had not yet had time to be directly translated into the government's fiscal revenue, and Zhang Hanqing's efforts against Soviet Russia changed the situation of financial urgency.

It is important to know that the sixth paragraph of the "Xinchou Treaty" agreed that the Qing government should compensate Russia, Germany, France, Britain, the United States, Japan, Italy, Austria and Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Sweden and Norway for their military expenses and losses of 450 million taels of silver, and the period of indemnity was from 1902 to 1940, with an annual interest rate of 4%, and the total principal and interest was 980 million taels. Russia had the largest distribution rate of 28.97 percent, and because Russia spent the most money on sending troops to Manchuria, the amount of income was the largest, at more than 130.37 million taels. In order to raise reparations, the government apportioned more than 21.21 million taels of annual taels, which caused an increase in land endowments, grain donations, deed taxes, pawn taxes, salt and pound markups, customs duties, centi, unified taxes, and various harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes. Accordingly, Russia controlled all the customs in the three eastern provinces, and only after the "Russo-Japanese War" did it lose the two important seaports of Dalian and Dandong. Changchun was the watershed of Japanese and Russian influence, and Harbin was the Russian sphere of influence. The power to define tariffs and the power to administer customs in various localities is not in the hands of the autonomous government of the Northeast United Provinces. Therefore, although Zhang Zuolin controlled the military and political affairs of Fengxin Province in the early days, he was financially constrained everywhere and was controlled by others. The simplest example is that even when he competed with Feng Delin for the leadership of Fengtian, he had to borrow 5 million yuan from Japan to maintain it.

As far back as the beginning of the "October Revolution" in the Soviet Union, Zhang Hanqing took the lead in persuading Zhang Zuolin to approve the recognition of the Soviet Russian government in the name of the envoy of the three eastern provinces. Such a God-given opportunity, if you don't take advantage of this time to get back some benefits, you will come to the world in vain. In history, this opportunity was wasted---- Fengjun's strength did not reach this point at that time, and there was no "think tank" like Zhang Hanqing in Fengjun. The real Zhang Xueliang "cheered up" in 1929 and engaged in the "Middle East Road Incident" to restore the possession of the North Manchurian Railway. Unexpectedly, the Soviet Union, which had already recovered its vitality, beat him to a disgrace, and from then on he formed a desert path to Russia, and also completely cut off the possible rescue opportunities of Soviet Russia when the September 18 accident occurred.

Opportunity is sometimes just a moment.

The new Russian government, threatened by the white bandits and many foreign intervening forces, quickly reciprocated this gesture: the government of Soviet Russia announced that it had agreed to and supported the peace agreement between the Northeast Autonomous Government and the Far Eastern Republics, and had decided to renounce all the privileges of Imperial Russia in China (mainly in the northeastern part), including the return of the unpaid part of the Gengzi indemnity. After negotiations with the autonomous government of the Northeast United Provinces, he gradually gave up the control of the North Manchurian Railway in the Tsarist era and transferred it to the Sino-Soviet co-management, and the sovereignty was in China. In the end, all these quid pro quo had only one purpose: to use the rapprochement of Russia as an opportunity to induce the Beiyang government to recognize the nascent Soviet power.

According to Zhang Hanqing's analysis, this is by no means the good intentions of Soviet Russia: the Soviet government established by the Bolshevik Party in Soviet Russia in 1917, at the suggestion of Lenin, signed the "Brest-Litovsk Treaty" with Germany on March 6, 1918. Although the treaty was signed between Russia and Germany, it greatly angered the various anti-Bolshevik forces in the Soviet Union and abroad, because it allowed Russia to cede a large part of western Russia. Lenin's judgment that Germany was about to lose in the near future, that the ceded lands would not be able to be retained, and that it would eventually still fall into the hands of the Soviet government, and this move still aroused the displeasure of the opposition; On the other hand, the Eastern War was made peaceful by the treaty, and the dying Germany thus avoided the interference of continuing the war on two fronts, and was able to delay the war that was about to end for a while; In addition, the fear of socialism was also one of the important reasons for the intervention of the foreign powers later.

The civil war in Soviet Russia was in full swing, and it was still difficult for the red regime to hold on, and Japan was eyeing Japan in the Far East, so it was natural to be happy to be human.

However, under the influence of Zhang Hanqing, in modern China, the Northeast was the first place to partially recover its tariff autonomy, which greatly increased Zhang Zuolin's prestige at home.

Relying on the revenue obtained from tariffs, the government of the Northeast United Province resolved the fiscal deficit and debt repayment crisis in the most difficult first year. After this hurdle, since then, with the gradual filling of the national treasury, the government finances that have been turned over are getting better and better year by year, and the repayment of loans is getting easier and easier year by year.

At the beginning of Zhang Zuolin's entry into the Northeast of China, his ally brother and important confidant Zhang Zuoxiang advocated "sticking to the outside of the border, recuperating and recuperating, training soldiers, and expanding strength" as the best policy. Zhang Hanqing used the wisdom of later generations to formulate the Northeast New Deal, the main content of which was to advance simultaneously in the political, military, and economic aspects, thus producing three epoch-making programmatic masterpieces, namely the "First Three-Year Plan for the Development of the National Economy in Northeast China," the "Outline for the Construction of the Feng Army," and the "Constitution of the Northeast People's Party Building" with the support of Zhang Zuolin.

The "Three-Year Plan for the Development of the National Economy in Northeast China" outlines the determination and direction of revitalizing Northeast China in a grand space, and the main contents are as follows:

First of all, it is planned to use the forces led by the autonomous government to initially establish a relatively complete industrial system that has a bearing on the national economy and the people's livelihood within three years, including railways, transportation, iron smelting, mining, coal, locomotive imitation, machine tools, tractors, chemical industry, power generation, textile industry, food industry, military industry, and other industrial sectors. Associations are set up in various industries, and the government appoints a member to serve as the secretary general of the industry association, allowing and encouraging private capital to join in financing, and the government joins in real estate, supporting industries or a small amount of cash as a part of the shares.

The iron and steel and chemical industries are mainly concentrated in Anshan and Benxi Lake, the coal industry is concentrated in Fushun, Benxi Lake and Fuxin, the oil shale and synthetic fuel industries are concentrated in Fushun and Jilin, the magnesite mining industry is concentrated in Haicheng and Dashiqiao, the hydropower generation is concentrated in Jilin and the Yalu River, the center of machinery, munitions and aircraft industries is Mukden, and the light industries such as textiles and food are concentrated in Dalian, Dandong, Harbin, Qiqihar and other cities.

In terms of finance, the government led the establishment of the Northeast Industrial Bank and the Northeast Bank of Communications, together with the already operational Northeast Agricultural Bank, as the commercial institutions of the Northeast Bank, to carry out the function of absorbing savings and lending in the three eastern provinces, and allowing private capital to invest in these three banks in the form of a joint-stock system, but the proportion shall not exceed 50%. With a bank, you can issue the corresponding currency as needed, and you can point to the relevant investments.

The most important difference between money and capital is that money is hidden in the body, while capital is circulated in the market.
