New York.

Zhou Hexuan, Song Ziwen, and Fan Heyan sat quietly in the hotel room.

Zhou Hexuan's face was very stinky, and Song Ziwen was no better.

Song Ziwen asked Zhou Hexuan for a cigarette for the first time, and looked at Fan Heyan with a cloud of fog: "Say, you must know what the situation is in China." ”

Fan Heyan smiled a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Song, Mr. Zhou, don't worry. The matter has been satisfactorily resolved, and everyone is a hero, and they will definitely be praised when they return home. ”

"Let's just say what's going on!" Zhou Hexuan was quite impatient.

Only then did Fan Heyan solve the riddle: "Mr. Young, the American adviser to Minister Kong, has reached a secret agreement with Mr. Bu Kai, an assistant to the US Treasury Secretary Morgenthau, to exchange Chinese silver for US dollars and US loans, so that the Chinese currency is pegged to the US dollar. In this way, the problems of the two countries are perfectly solved. Chairman Chiang was also in favor of this plan. ”

Song Ziwen was dissatisfied: "Why don't you inform us?" ”

Fan Heyan said: "Secret agreement." ”

Song Ziwen suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "If you can really do this, it would be a good way." ”

Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "It's really that simple, there is no need to sign any secret agreements, let alone cancel the formal negotiations between the two countries, for fear that the United States will backtrack again." ”

"Mr. Zhou, rest assured," Fan Heyan said confidently, "the main reason why this kind of matter is not resolved through formal negotiations is that President Roosevelt is under too much pressure and he has to bypass Congress." ”

Zhou Hexuan asked Song Ziwen: "Brother Song, what do you think?" ”

Song Ziwen nodded and said, "If you can indeed exchange silver for dollars and dollar loans, then it is feasible." ”

Fan Heyan said: "Could it be that Mr. Zhou has a different opinion? ”

"Huh, is it possible? What a fart! Zhou Hexuan did not hide his anger, "If Roosevelt had sincerity, he would have personally received us a long time ago, so why make a big detour and let the assistant to the US Treasury Secretary and the adviser to the Chinese Treasury Secretary negotiate secretly?" And also negotiated by telegram. Can such a big thing be solved with a telegram? ”

Song Ziwen frowned and said, "I think this plan can solve the problem, will there be any mistakes?" ”

Zhou Hexuan analyzed: "Roosevelt was reluctant to solve the Chinese silver crisis for two reasons. First, the political kidnapping of the silver group; Second, Japan's 'Amoha Statement'. The secret agreement to exchange silver for dollars perfectly bypasses both of these problems. First of all, the silver group is very happy, the United States is importing silver into China, which will inevitably lead to another increase in the price of silver. Second, after China sells silver, the dollar may be available, but the credit will definitely be delayed. At that time, China has been unable to make up the margin, and even failed to obtain the promise of a fiat currency pegged to the US dollar, and China's currency reform will inevitably fail. In this way, Roosevelt curried favor with the silver group and did not offend Japan. Only China has been completely trapped! ”

Song Ziwen was dumbfounded when he heard this, and instantly thought clearly about the conspiracy, and even more thought of the consequences of Kong Xiangxi's export of silver to the United States. China was already tightening its monetary system, and once it exported silver on a large scale, the financial market collapsed, and I don't know how many factories would go bankrupt.

"Roosevelt's hand is really powerful!" Song Ziwen spread out on the sofa, and he had nothing to say except sighing.

Zhou Hexuan was so angry that he scolded: "Are Chang Kaishen and Kong Xiangxi all in their heads?" You can't see such a simple trap! ”

Zhou Hexuan couldn't help but lose his temper, and he said it well at the beginning, he wanted to involve all three countries, Britain, the United States and Japan. Fortunately, now Lao Jiang suddenly changed his mind and swallowed the bait thrown by the Americans in one gulp.

Fan Heyan was also a little sluggish when he heard it, and said weakly: "If it doesn't come to this, let's not imagine Roosevelt as a conspiracy villain." ”

Zhou Hexuan laughed angrily: "If Roosevelt was a righteous man and a gentleman, he would have been swallowed up by the American big conglomerates. ”

Song Ziwen thought about it carefully and said: "It's not that there is no room for maneuver, at least you can find a way from the British." ”

"It's useless," Zhou Hexuan said helplessly, "Chang Kaishen has already swallowed Roosevelt's bait, and before Roosevelt played Laipi, Nanjing would definitely refuse to cooperate with the British." Roosevelt's trick killed four birds with one stone, including Japan, Britain, China, and the Silver Syndicate. What a treacherous man this dead lame man is! ”

Fan Heyan didn't speak again, he felt that his brain was not enough, this world was too dangerous, and there were big bad guys who deceived people everywhere.

Song Ziwen stood up suddenly: "No, I have to send a telegram to the chairman and make things clear to him!" ”

……

Nanking.

"Chairman, the United States is in a hurry!"

Chang Kaishen silently finished reading the telegram, and his brows quickly furrowed. He is suspicious of character, and soon realizes that he has been cheated, and it is too late to regret it while the silver transaction has not yet taken place.

However, Chang Kaishen's gambler psychology is at work again!

He didn't want to offend the United States because of this, and at the same time he had a hint of luck, maybe Roosevelt would not regret his tricks. If all goes well, exchanging Chinese silver for dollars and dollar credit, thus completing China's currency reform, is the perfect and quickest solution.

Chang Kaishen called the secretary of the chamberlain and called Song Ziwen back: "Don't worry Ziwen, I have already considered it all, and you must cooperate in the United States." ”

After the telegram was sent, Chang Kaishen felt that the Yankees were unreliable, so he called Zhang Qun and asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to continue negotiations with the British, but not to make promises easily.

Chang Kaishen's abacus is very good, if the Yankees don't cheat, they will cooperate with the Yankees. If the Yankees don't admit it, then they will find the British to cooperate, so foolproof, everyone will be happy.

The problem is that China's silver deal with the United States has dragged on for months. When the time comes, there is no need for Roosevelt to play tricks, China's economy will not be able to hold up on its own, and when the British cooperate again, the daylily will be cold.

Chang Kaishen also seemed to be aware of this problem, and hurriedly called Kong Xiangxi again. He told Kong Xiangxi not to rush to ship the silver out, and put the silver in the bank in Shanghai after the transaction, so that on the one hand, it could stabilize the financial market, and on the other hand, it could warn the Yankees.

Our Chairman Jiang is really a genius, and he considers all aspects of the problem, but unfortunately all of them are inconsequential and do not touch the core key points at all.

Kong Xiangxi also slapped his chest with a bang, promising not to let the Yankees take advantage of it in vain. He also proposed a remedy, saying that if he sold silver to the United States and the silver reserves were insufficient, he could buy silver from the British, so that he could stabilize the finances.

Two gifted children!

Their solution would have bankrupted at least a third of the factories in Shanghai and Tianjin, as the most crucial months of currency reform had been wasted.

Zhou Hexuan is doing so many things in the United States, and he is completely blind.

After all, he still can't fight Roosevelt, especially in the presence of pig teammates.
