Chapter 113 Gathering Like Things

The date of Yuan Shikai's inauguration as interim president is quietly approaching, and the military generals led by the Beiyang Department gather in the capital, and "rewarding meritorious deeds" is not a problem. www.biquge.info On this day, in front of a famous restaurant in the capital, a large number of war horses appeared, guards with short guns, and the guards talked to each other, each of them was arrogant. On the second floor, a private room was full of friends, and the military generals of the Beiyang Army gathered together. Among them, Duan Shichang, Cao Kun, Wang Shizhen, Feng Guozhang, Wu Peifu and others were seated. ”

During the banquet, everyone was elated and bright. With Yuan Shikai's tiger might, power will inevitably be redistributed, and as a descendant general of the Beiyang military forces, he will naturally enjoy such a "dividend". "Brother Cao shoulders the heavy responsibility of the safety of the Jingshi, why is he depressed?" Duan Shichang asked. Everyone stopped clamoring and their eyes were aimed at Cao Kun. "Don't mention the depression, do you know that hairy boy Ge Yunfei in Shandong?" "7 sesame officials, opportunistic and ingenious, soaring into the sky, self-proclaimed as the overseer of Shandong. However, this kid is very deep in Taoism and is deeply valued by Lord Yuan. Feng Guozhang said.

"I heard that Ge Yunfei has a way to make money, and he is rich at a young age!" Wu Peifu agreed. "This kid thinks he has merit, he is very arrogant, and he doesn't take us seriously at all!" Cao Kun briefly recounted his "encounter", and his expression of envy, jealousy and hatred was exposed. Duan Qirui said: "Although Ge Yunfei is not from a military background, he has a set of leading troops to fight. The well-equipped first town of Liangbi was completely wiped out in less than half a day, which is enough to explain the problem. ”

"Brother Duan, Ge Yunfei is nothing more than luck. Everyone knows that Liangbi's two brushes are the children of the Eight Banners, and they are a bunch of waste, and they can't lift it up in a ponytail and tofu! Cao Kun said disdainfully. Brother Cao, as far as I know, the 10th Association of the 5th Town was wiped out overnight in Weifang, is it difficult to be accidental? I would like to ask you, who is sure that with 2,000 troops, 3,000 men and horses will be eaten overnight. In the battle of Ande Town, Ge Yunfei led 9,000 men and horses and ate more than 12,000 people in Liangbi. Wang Shizhen calmly analyzed.

Feng Guozhang said: "I heard that Ge Yunfei's unit recruited many non-commissioned officers who graduated from the Japanese Army School, and the military quality of the soldiers is very high. "Money can make ghosts grind, Ge Yunfei has money, and it is not surprising to recruit a large number of military talents," Wu Peifu said. Ladies and gentlemen, don't be impatient, don't block Lord Yuan. After all, we are stirring horses and spoons together, and we belong to the same camp, so don't let outsiders watch the excitement, it's rare to get together for a drink today. Duan Qirui shifted the target and raised a glass. What Brother Duan said is extremely true, it will be difficult for everyone to get together and drink in the future! Wang Shizhen understood.

When the generals were shouting three and drinking, in the Four Seas Restaurant on Wangfu Street, the figure of Ge Yunfei appeared in a private room upstairs. The downstairs is overcrowded and noisy, and the upstairs is very quiet. Ge Yunfei Yu Shan Feng stood in front of the window, looking at the bustling crowd on the street, talking. “?????? The Overseer, this is the situation after coming to the capital, there is not much difference. I've settled down in the capital, and if nothing else, I'm going to go to Shanghai to build a radio station. "Singlet inquiry." You can't go to Shanghai for a while? ”

"Why? Could it be that Yuan Shikai ascended the throne, and we still have to secretly escort him? "Singlet Confusion." Given you a special assignment? "What special assignment?" "You immediately find out, how many palaces and Baylor mansions are in the capital, and where do these people live? What is the situation of the property, find out for me and draw a simple map. In addition, prepare 30 people, 30 horses, and two cars for me. "Okay, I'll do it." Seeing Ge Yunfei's solemn expression, Shan Feng was inconvenient to ask.

That night, Ge Yunfei answered a phone call and borrowed a car from Yuan Shikai's guard captain. The car arrived near the Liulichang and entered a bustling street, and most of the shops on both sides of the street peddled goods such as the four treasures of the study room and rice paper, and the smell of books was strong. After the Manchus announced their resignation, the air of freedom permeated. In a short period of time, the capital has become a city that never sleeps, and many businesses have extended their business hours, and even when night falls, the streets are still full of pedestrians and bustling.

The car stopped in front of a restaurant, Ge Yunfei got out of the car and looked up at the plaque of the restaurant, hesitated and walked in. Entering the private room, familiar faces appeared in front of him, and Li Hanlin and Mo Xin stood up together. Mo Xin wore a black cheongsam, looking gentle and elegant, and her face was pale and slightly flustered. Her eyes were blue and obviously caused by poor sleep. "Here, you talk about me and avoid it!" Li Hanlin nodded, patted his sister's shoulder and walked out.

Ge Yunfei walked to the table and sat down, and when he saw that there were not only wine and food on the table, but also paper and pen and ink, he understood everything. "Mo Xin, are you okay?" "It's fine!" Mo Xin stood up and filled her glass with wine. Ge Yunfei picked up the wine glass and drank it with his neck tilted, but Mo Xin just dipped his lips in the wine glass. "You have blue bags under your eyes, are you not sleeping well?" "My current identity is Huang Xing's secretary, and I am too busy with work." "When did you arrive in the capital?" "I arrived the afternoon before yesterday."

Ge Yunfei didn't know what to ask again, and the two sides fell silent. After a long time, Ge Yunfei asked: "Our daughter is eight years old and very cute, don't you plan to go back and see it this time?" "Family affairs, national affairs, world affairs, national affairs are important, and I will go back to see my daughter when I have time in the future." Mo Xin's tone was very light, and Ge Yunfei realized that the distance between them was getting farther and farther away, and even a little strange. "Time flies, it's been more than three years since you left Zhou Village," "Yes, time flies so fast." However, I don't regret my choice. The two sides fell silent again.

Soon, Mo Xin's voice was cold: "Yunfei, I don't want to debate with you, let alone make a fuss, the relationship between you and me will hurt your self-esteem if it is announced in public." My current name is Li Jin, you write a letter of resignation, maybe this is the fate of you and me. "Mo Xin, thank you for giving me face." Ge Yunfei picked up the pen and thought for a while, and waved it. Mo Xin picked up the book of resignation and looked at it a few times, then folded it and put it in an envelope. Mo Xin wanted to say something but couldn't help it, she picked up her wine glass and said with a reluctant smile on her face: "Yunfei, the road is my own choice, whether it is a sunny road or a single-plank bridge, I have my own conclusion, I wish you happiness!" ”

Mo Xin got up after drinking, and Ge Yunfei also stood up mechanically. Mo Xin stepped forward and hugged her gently, "Don't send me!" After saying that, he turned his head and ran, tears gushing down his cheeks. Ge Yunfei didn't move, and his heart ached faintly. After a long time, Ge Yunfei walked out of the restaurant, looked at the starry sky, took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and his head was much clearer. Bastard, don't be sad for your children's love, it's good if it's over, there is less worry, so as not to be short of breath for heroes. Mo Xin wishes you happiness and hopes that you will find the right person as soon as possible.

The next morning, in front of Gate 33. "Master Sun, it's been a long time!" Yang Du took a look at Sun Baoqi, and when he saw Sun Baoqi's red face and excitement, he guessed that Yuan Shikai had informed him of his personnel appointment. The position of vice premier of the cabinet is far more tempting than the post of governor of Jinan. "It's Senator Yang, and I just met with Lord Yuan. I heard that Senator Yang is highly valued by adults, and I hope that Senator Yang will speak a lot of kind words in front of adults. "Lord Sun is highly respected, and the officials should serve them."

The two sides exchanged a few polite words in front of the door, and Sun Baoqi said goodbye. Yang Du looked at Sun Baoqi's back and secretly thought: Give a little sunshine and it will be brilliant, don't you know that it is a dream. Walking into the hall, I saw Yuan Shikai standing in front of the map of China and pondering. "My lord, what do you want?" "Chenzi, do you know Ge Yunfei's intention in sending me the map?" "Do you need to ask? The king of a country, rebuke Fang Xuan, and have the world in mind. "No, Ge Yunfei has a unique vision. Do you know why I agreed to the conditions of the Qing Emperor's abdication and treated the Manchu nobles well. ”

"Naturally, it is forced by the needs of the situation, in order to smooth the transfer of power and stabilize the world." "That's just one of them, you see Mongolia in the north, Xinjiang in the west, and Tibet in the southeast. These regions were inextricably linked to the Qing court, especially in the upper classes of the frontier provinces, and the influence of the Qing court was deeply rooted. We treat the Manchu nobles well and prevent them from deviating from morality. The alliance will propose to expel the Tartars, but we don't want it in the Northeast, Mongolia, Tibet, and Xinjiang, which is simply stupid. ”

"The adults are high-minded, but the lower officials are dull." But Ge Yunfei thought of this and gave me a map, reminiscent of his previous mention of the Chinese nation, which shows how far he can see. This time I proposed currency reform, and I asked the ministers to discuss his measures, what is the result of you? "Naturally unanimously passed?" "This is something I didn't expect, Ge Yunfei's talent is fully qualified for the post of prime minister. It's just that I'm too young, so I'll put it next to me first. In a few years, he will definitely become my right-hand man. ”

"I have sent Finance Minister Zhou Xuexi to Jinan to inspect the Dahua Minsheng Bank and the Mint. According to the detailed materials provided by Ge Yunfei, after the situation is implemented, the currency reform will be implemented immediately, new currencies will be issued as soon as possible, and the new atmosphere of the Republic of China will be demonstrated. Ge Yunfei is my God of Wealth, and it is impossible to have no money, and even the famous saying. "The adults have taken the right measures, Ge Yunfei has been practicing by the side of the adults, and he will help the adults to achieve a thousand years in the future."

"The year before last, Ge Yunfei visited the province and talked about the efficacy of the railway in front of me. He said that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and the train rings with gold ten thousand taels, what does Ye Zi think? ”

"My lord, although the words are straightforward, they are incisive and to the point." Sun Wen has a soft spot for railways, and the old man also sees the efficacy of railways, Ge Yunfei spares no effort to praise the railway, is this a coincidence? No! This is not a coincidence, this is the general trend of our time. In the next step, the central government should make every effort to raise funds to build the Austro-Han railway as soon as possible, and the connection of the north-south corridor is the top priority. "What the lord said is very true, and the lower officials agree."

"My lord, Huang Xing has been in the capital for a few days, and he wants to see him again?" "Nope! I want to force Sun Wen to come to Beijing as soon as possible. "My lord, Sun Wen's dissolution of the Nanjing government is a foregone conclusion, this is due to the strength of the adult, and there is no need to mobilize the people. At present, public opinion is calling for the formation of a stable overall situation as soon as possible, and public opinion is also on the side of adults. "To put it bluntly, Sun Wen's unstable foundation is that he has no money in his hands and it is difficult to support the overall situation. Money can make ghosts grind, that's true! ”
