139 [Cash-for-Work]
Zhou Hexuan was busy giving relief to the victims, and some celebrities in Tianjin were still staring at the dance hall. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Including Wang Luyuan, Pan Shoulian, Yan Xiu, Hua Shikui, Zhao Yuanli and others, 12 "people with a heart for the world" in Tianjin society persuaded the hotel to cancel the dance hall in the tone of Taoists in order to maintain moral morality.
They said in the official letter: "In front of the public, men and women hug, spin and squat, and the two bodies are only separated by a trace, and the sweat is soaked, the heat is intense, and their vision is overturned by clouds and rain, how far apart? "Youyun," at first, he borrowed money to travel to the view, and then he seduced young Chinese women, following the waves, which was a dry firewood and a fire, and gradually opened the door to prostitution. He also insulted those who advocated and approved the dancer for "not being condemned by heaven, but also being condemned."
These guys scolded, and they even published the newspaper and shouted, it was endless, and the trouble didn't stop for a month or two.
Zhou Hexuan read the newspaper, and he was angry, and directly sprayed back on "Ta Kung Pao" with his real name: "I heard that in the Iron Lion Hutong and the Liuguo Hotel in Beiping, there are also many high-class people hugging and dancing there, and the dry firewood over there is better than in Tianjin?" You guys went to Iron Lion Hutong and the Six Nations Hotel to scold! If you really have enough to eat and have nothing to do, you will donate money to the disaster relief, there are countless victims outside Tianjin who are hungry! ”
The Iron Lion Hutong and the Liuguo Hotel in Beiping are either high-ranking officials from Beiyang or foreign dignitaries. The Taoists naturally can't afford to provoke them, they only dare to complain in Tianjin, and only provoke the nobles when their brains are in water.
As soon as Zhou Hexuan jumped out to be sarcastic, it immediately caused a group of Taoist scholars to attack, among which Zhao Yuanli scolded the most fiercely: "Zhou Hexuan, named a scholar, is actually a literary demon." Running schools for disaster relief is nothing more than an invitation to fame. This person is good at drilling camps and tricks, and has taken refuge in Chu Yupu and Zhang Xueliang, thinking that he is the step to advance. Later, he went south to advocate women's emancipation and made a lot of money by selling his belly pockets. I taste words, words are like people, and words are like people. Zhou's calligraphy is extremely ugly, comparable to a three-year-old Mengtong, and this person's character should be the same, and it is difficult to enter the eyes of the moral. ”
Who is Zhao Yuanli?
One of the four great calligraphers in Tianjin, the three masters of modern poetry in Tianjin, and even Li Shutong is his student.
Zhao Yuanli can be called the representative of the old school of literati in Tianjin, while Zhou Hexuan is a well-known scholar who has recently risen. The two exchanged sprays in the newspapers, which immediately attracted the attention of countless readers, and the supporters behind them also joined the scolding war.
Zhou Hexuan responded in "Ta Kung Pao": "Mr. Zhao Yuanli is a great calligrapher, and it seems that he once said: To practice calligraphy, you must first practice people, you must be honest and responsible, you must be rigorous in doing things, and you can only be correct in your heart." I admit that my handwriting is poor, and according to Mr. Zhao's theory, my character should also be very poor. But now, as a tasteless person, I am doing my best to help the victims, and Mr. Zhao is virtuous, should he also be generous? You are so upright that you will not turn a blind eye to the victims, right? ”
Zhao Yuanli quickly said: "It is a small righteousness to help the victims, and it is a great road to defend the weather, and you can't give up the road regardless of the small righteousness." The old man's family is not wealthy, but he also knows righteousness, and has donated 100 yuan to the victims to express his heart. ”
Zhou Hexuan sprayed directly: "What the hell, spending money on scolding articles in the newspaper in the past two months may cost more than 100 yuan, right?" That's it! ”
As soon as the dirty words came out, the readers were overwhelmed, and it turned out that Mr. Zhou also scolded his mother.
Zhao Yuanli was so angry that he vomited blood after reading the newspaper, and hurriedly sent someone to donate 500 yuan, so he continued to write an article: "Swen sweeps the floor, how can a reader be dirty?" When the articles I write appear in the newspaper, I don't need to pay for them, but I will receive money from the newspaper to polish them. ”
Zhou Hexuan sneered: "Then you are making money by opposing dancing and inviting fame." ”
Zhao Yuanli only replied with four words this time: "Unreasonable!" ”
……
Marshal's Mansion.
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Xueliang couldn't stop laughing, put down the newspaper and said: "Good scolding, this kind of old stubbornness should be scolded." ”
Zhang Xueliang is a frequent visitor to the dance hall, and he just met Miss Zhao Si at the dance a few days ago, and the two have already hooked up with each other. Those old pedants who oppose dancing are not just slapping the young marshal in the face? Zhou Hexuan helped him sulk this time.
"Those who can't wake up still think they are defending morality." Zhou Hexuan said helplessly.
Zhang Xueliang said: "Your Jimin Association is doing well, I donated 5,000 in my private name, which can be regarded as a contribution to the people." But don't think about government funding, it's really difficult. ”
The finances of the Beiyang government have exploded, and the finance minister is so worried that he will resign directly, and he will go back to Tianjin to be a chic apartment. Civil servants have not received their salaries for several months, and Peking University's teaching funds are naturally in arrears, and lecturers and professors are struggling to get by.
Why is this happening?
Because you can't collect taxes!
Take Zhili Province (Hebei) as an example, this is the province closest to the central government. But all the money from taxes and donations went into the pockets of Chu Yupu, the governor and overseer, and it was even more difficult to collect taxes from other provinces.
Zhang Zuolin has the territory of the three eastern provinces, but Zhang Zuolin is Zhang Zuolin, and the Beiyang government is the Beiyang government, don't expect Lao Zhang to fill the hole with his own money.
Therefore, the first thing the previous presidents and prime ministers of the Beiyang government did after taking office was to rush to find foreigners to borrow. But in doing so, he was attacked by political opponents every time, and finally fell out of power in disgrace.
Zhou Hexuan said: "The government is in financial difficulties, and I naturally know it. But now that there are more and more people from Shandong, it is not the way to provide disaster relief. ”
"That's what you're here to do today?" Zhang Xueliang asked.
"I can only find you Liushuai." Zhou Hexuan said.
Zhang Xueliang pointed at Zhou Hexuan and teased: "You, you are obviously a scholar, but you have the heart of the prime minister, why don't you just go into politics." ”
Zhou Hexuan shook his head again and again: "Now as an internal affairs officer, I am making a night pot for the overseers." Take it out and use it when you need to urinate, and throw it under the bed when you finish urinating. ”
"Hahahaha, this metaphor is wonderful!" Zhang Xueliang clapped his hands in admiration.
Zhou Hexuan said: "Six marshals, my idea is that the government will take the lead in carrying out some major municipal projects. In this way, the cash-for-work not only develops the society, but also provides relief to the victims and gives them jobs. ”
"It's a good way to work for relief," Zhang Xueliang said with appreciation, but he said randomly and helplessly, "You have to go to Chu Yupu for this matter, Tianjin is his territory." Well, I don't think he cares. ”
Chu Yupu used to be Zhang Zongchang's subordinate, and he didn't learn anything else, and he learned to pay taxes and miscellaneous taxes well. Nowadays, the taxes in the counties of Zhili are getting heavier and heavier, which has caused the organization of the Red Gun Association to spread. When Zhou Hexuan was selling underwear in Shanghai, an armed uprising broke out in Cheng'an County, and the Red Gun Society directly entered the army station, and after grabbing the arms, he opened a warehouse and released grain, which caused a vigorous scene.
Most of these members of the Red Gun Society were honest peasants, and they were forced to rebel by the warlords.
Want Chu Yupu to work for relief? Hehe, thank goodness he doesn't collect taxes on the victims.
Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "I mean, in the name of the central government, in conjunction with the boards of directors of various countries in the Tianjin Concession, the Haihe River water conservancy project will be launched. ”
"What's the matter with foreigners?" Zhang Xueliang is in the Northeast all the year round and does not know the situation in Tianjin.
"The Haihe River in Tianjin has been flooding for hundreds of years, not only with silt blocking the port, but also with seawater backing up and turning a large amount of fertile land into saline-alkali land," Zhou explained. From the late Qing Dynasty to four years ago, the Haihe River has carried out five large-scale river improvement projects. Among them, the foreigners also made a lot of efforts, because the silting of the port would cause them a lot of losses. The last time the Haihe River was renovated was a few years ago, and when you calculate the time, it's almost time to get it in order again. ”
Zhang Xueliang's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "This method is good!" It not only prospers the port, but also benefits the people, and can also provide relief to the victims. Hexuan, how did you have such a brain? ”
Zhang Xueliang really took Zhou Hexuan, the last time Zhou Hexuan gave him a divisive plan, he ran back to tell his father, Zhang Zuolin immediately laughed, and bluntly said "The hero sees the same thing". It turned out that Zhang Zuolin was already in discord, and secretly contacted Principal Chang last autumn, and now the Northern Expedition forces in the south have become a mess.
