0710 Shanghai Huaguo Central Bank

President Meng said with a smile: "We Chinese eat, there is a thank you gift, this is our custom, everyone, 100,000 taels of Qing Guoguan Bank, Huaguo Central Bank promissory note, that is, exchange, right, to Tianjin, can be exchanged, not a tribute." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Regardless of whether the final negotiation is successful or not, I hope that the ministers of the two countries will accept this gift, and I still hope that the two of you can truthfully reflect the situation in China, which I can see in the newspapers of your country. ”

The British Minister Wei Tuma and the French Minister Luo Shuya smiled and nodded at the same time, the two of them naturally like money, and they did not accept the money of the president once or twice.

Luo Shuya smiled: "You must react truthfully, in fact, President Meng is not negotiating with us, you already have channels to negotiate with our big conference hall." ”

President Meng nodded with a smile and said, "That's good, but, the meaning I just said still needs to be conveyed by two people, so isn't the caliber the same?" If I go around you directly, will your government trust us? When the time comes, what will you do if you smear two more sentences, arch your anger, and drag your two countries into war? ”

In fact, President Meng's negotiation timing at this time is the best, compared to the attitude of the British Minister Wittoma and the French Minister Luo Shuya, in fact, Luo Shuya is much softer, because France has just experienced a fiasco in the Franco-Prussian War, and now it is like a dog that has been pierced through its nose and is on a leash, and it has no strength to deal with Huaguo at all.

British Minister Wei Tuma smiled and raised his glass, "President Meng, today, I really admire you, you are younger than my little grandson, I am surprised by the wisdom of the Orientals, I only hope that China will never confront our British Empire, I think President Meng's proposal, in the United Kingdom, has at least a fifty percent chance of passing." ”

President Meng stood up with a smile and held his cup of hot milk, "I hope so, we Chinese are peace-loving, as long as we don't come to bully us, have you seen when we have bullied others?" As for the Taiwan issue, I also hope that the two countries will not get involved and will not undermine the friendly status between us, because for the economy of Southeast Asia as a whole, we need all of us to work together to manage it. ”

The three of them drank this cup together, and in just three years, President Meng has grown from a little kid who was born in Tianjin City to a little kid on the beach who can sit on an equal footing with British and French dignitaries.

President Meng didn't take the two guys in front of him who were awesome people in the eyes of the Qing Kingdom in his eyes at all, and said secretly: Lao Tzu will reward you with a mouthful of food, give you a red envelope, that is, give you a fortune, Lao Tzu is your master, this red envelope, should be fed to the dog.

After feeding this dog, I don't know if it has any effect.

However, at least when President Meng interacted with foreign businessmen from all walks of life in Shanghai, it still played a role, otherwise, President Meng directly confiscated the property of many British and French people in Tianjin, and President Meng is now a public enemy of foreign businessmen.

President Meng did not learn from the Qing court to borrow from the foreign government, but raised funds from the Shanghai industrial and commercial circles and foreign banks to use treasury bills.

This is a difficult thing to do, after all, the time of the establishment of China is too short.

The establishment of the Shanghai Huaguo Central Bank, President Meng invited the British Minister Wittome and the French Minister Luo Shuya to cut the ribbon, and afterwards, organized a dinner party, invited rich businessmen from all walks of life in Shanghai, and finally raised more than 3 million taels of Qing official silver, Shanghai Huaguo Central Bank barely opened, absolutely not strong.

The situation of the Central Bank of Shanghai Huaguo is very different from that of the Central Bank of Guangdong, and when it comes to Shanghai, it is really the place where the financial predators display their talents.

In Shanghai, his position is reversed, and now President Meng is the machine gunner guarding the fortress to prevent people from squeezing his central bank down.

Fortunately, President Meng knows a little bit about finance, otherwise, in the late Qing Dynasty, as a national boss, you can't play in minutes, and the national boss can know a little bit about everything, but for the economy, you must know more, the country, not a joke.

If it weren't for the fact that the Central Bank of Shanghai had just been established, President Meng would have wanted to go to Taiwan now!

He has no choice but to wait, he has no money, and he can't go to Taiwan, he must have a stable rear, who knows how the war with the Japanese will start?

For the initial stage of a country, the best one is that most of the officials are businessmen, or businessmen, which is the most blessed thing for the people.

However, in fact, generally in a new government, the officials are all from the background of soldiers, even if they are good people and good officers, there are more than 90 percent of the problems, which cannot be solved, not to say that the officials are all Jiao Yulu, and the common people will immediately live a peaceful life and live a good life.

Jiao Yulu also needs to continue to learn all aspects of knowledge.

And these Chinese government officials who were born as businessmen can solve the problems of the vast majority of the people, what is the biggest problem of the people?

No money to buy rice, no money to buy vegetables, no money to wear clothes!

"President, in the past two days, it is necessary to exchange silver, there is almost no silver deposited, our Chinese dollar is in Shanghai, and the circulation is also unfavorable, people only recognize gold and silver, and foreign currencies recognize the pound." He Daoming because of his positive and political performance, coupled with his shrewdness and ability, helped President Meng to solve the problem of the shortage of officials in the entire Jiangnan, and brought a large number of Shaoxing masters to make a contribution, and has been promoted to the president of Shanghai Huaguo Central Bank by President Meng, although Shanghai has reduced its administrative status, but the financial status cannot be reduced if President Meng wants to reduce it, Shanghai Huaguo Central Bank is actually the head office of Huaguo Central Bank in Jiangnan, and even has surpassed Danzhou Huaguo Central Bank, It is equivalent to the general hub of Huaguo Finance.

President Meng was not anxious, "Now we have just changed the dynasty, we have taken over the rule of the Qing court, the people do not have enough confidence in us, worried that the Qing court will fight back, these are all expected things, people's hearts are unstable, in this way, the world needs a lot of silver, this is a normal thing, let all levels of government agencies, accelerate the circulation of Huayuan, for public institutions, a large number of Huayuan!" ”

He Daoming agreed with President Meng's statement, admired it very much, or worried: "President, what he said is very true, but the more than three million taels of silver we have in hand in exchange for treasury bills have been redeemed two-thirds, and there is less than one million taels left. ”

"Don't do this, they are dead dogs first, and they can't jump for a few days, and the money is in the hands of the major commercial houses, and the hard seizure will cause a crisis of trust, scare people away, which is equivalent to scaring away all the silver, in that case, we want an empty city, what's the use? I'll find a way, remember, as much as comes, we will exchange as much as you want, you have to have this concept in your heart, we are the central bank, not only Shanghai, but the whole of China, our bank, we have to stabilize his currency, foreigners want to fight a financial war, we will play with them! This is not only to stabilize the situation in Jiangnan, but also of great significance for foreigners to stop meddling in Chinese affairs! President Meng stood and looked at He Daoming.

He Daoming bowed, "I understand what the president meant, I'll go down." ”

President Meng nodded, "Go ahead." ”

In fact, the solution that President Meng can come up with is very simple, borrow foreign debts!

However, President Meng didn't want to do this, borrowing foreign debts, which were all conditional on betraying the country's sovereignty, what is the difference between him and the Qing court?

Yes, it's okay to turn your face and not admit it, but it's really good to turn your face and not admit it?

If a country or a nation can't even trust, what's the difference between being shameless and shameless?

President Meng can allow such a thing as undeclared war, but he can't allow cheating money, even if I want to make your money, I have to rely on real skills, not on cheating money. (To be continued.) )
