The flexible diplomacy of the new government paid off, and in further negotiations, Britain and France decided to join the construction of China's railways and make joint capital investments with the United States and Germany. The new government has decided that the railway affairs in Shandong, Yunnan, and the Yangtze River valley will be managed by a joint committee composed of China, the United States, Germany, Britain and France, and that the management of the railways in the rest of the regions will be controlled by the government.

Through this agreement, and the implementation of the unified currency system, the new government was able to survive the most difficult period, maintain its fiscal independence, and keep the four countries' banking syndicates in name only.

At the same time, the British government issued a warning to Japan. The ambassador to Japan, Dou Nale, was instructed to deliver a note to the foreign secretary, stating that Britain did not agree to the secession of Northeast China from China to avoid a chain reaction. It supports China's de facto government and calls for a cooperative attitude from Japan.

Due to British pressure and the already disagreement between the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the General Staff Headquarters, Prime Minister Katsura Taro instructed the Kanto Governor Yoshimasa Oshima to ban the "Manchu-Mongolian Independence Movement" of Kawashima Naniwa and others. Fukushima had to send a telegram "Urgent return to Japan", summoning Kawashima to return to Japan, and ordering the disbandment of the so-called Qinwang Army, and the first Manchurian-Mongolian independence movement went bankrupt.

Although Japan was ambitious, it sought to expand its influence in China. However, due to the lack of national strength at that time, and the containment of Britain, the United States and other countries, and the fact that it did not receive reparations in the Russo-Japanese War, the debt was high. At a time when the great powers had evolved into a struggle for economic power, they were hardly able to participate.

So much so that the "Central Public Commentary" lamented: "The impoverished Japan could not vigorously expand its rights and interests in China at this time, because of the number of days, and it could only endure for the time being." Waiting for the opportunity to develop again. ”

Subsequently, Spain, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark, Portugal, the Netherlands, Britain, Russia, France, Japan, Austria-Hungary, Italy and other countries issued notes recognizing the Republic of China.

After solving the problem of international recognition, and using Britain and the United States to force Japan back, the new government began to focus on dealing with the insatiable bear of Russia. At the same time, the liquidation of certain parties for disregard of national interests has also begun. Collusion with foreign powers.

Everyone thinks they are the most shrewd people and are on their way to victory, but the praying mantis catches cicadas, the yellow finches follow behind, and there are strong players in the strong! Before the time to flip the cards, who can be sure that it is a victory or a defeat.

"Commercial railway companies such as Jiangxi and Yuehan can maintain the status quo, but they must be subject to government inspection and supervision, and financing can only be carried out by the Bank of Communications. The consent of the Government is not required. It is not allowed to accept foreign capital, let alone transfer the management right at will. In case of violation, the government will use Chuanhan Road as an example to nationalize the railway. ”

"Some economic groups or foreign consortia use funds to prop up a certain political group or certain politicians as their political spokespersons, so that they can use the state power granted by the public to serve the interests of these groups, harm the well-being of the public, and even endanger the interests of the state. This kind of black money politics is the focus of the government's crackdown. Today, the Ministry of Supervision has set up a special financial investigation bureau for associations, once discovered. Strictly investigate and deal with it. ”

"The interests of the state are paramount, and those who take risks for their own selfish interests or the selfish interests of one party and harm the interests of the state are the same as traitors. The conspiracy to lure the wolf to resist the tiger by means of different abuses was not tolerated by heaven. Later, it was not allowed by wisdom. ”

The government suddenly issued a decree and made Baath's finances public. At the same time, it also created a big momentum in the media to guide public opinion, causing low-level figures of various parties and factions who did not know the inside story to discuss one after another. However, the party leaders, who had already communicated with the president in advance, were as steady as Mount Tai and applauded the government's move.

Some rejoice, others are frightened. Wang Jingwei was in a cold sweat at this time, and the piles and piles recorded on the documents spread out on the table were like a sharp sword piercing his heart. It's over, it's enough to ruin them, and the League will be notorious.

Zhao Bingjun has been appointed by the government as the minister of supervision because of his outstanding performance in Beijing. He loved the job, especially when he looked at his prey in horror, the thrill was indescribable. However, he was also wary because these documents were forwarded by the Ministry of State Security, which made him feel frightened by the power of the Ministry of State Security.

"The Black Dragon Society is a Japanese organization with a tendency to invade China, but you have close contact with it, what do you want? There is also the Mitsui consortium that provides you with funds to obtain the right to borrow money for the Manchurian-Mongolian railway, and the right to build a railway from Xiamen or Fuzhou to Hankou via Nanchang. That's enough to collect black gold, right? Zhao Bingjun sneered and patted the table, and asked in a deep voice.

"At that time, the government did not officially state that foreign capital was not allowed to be borrowed for the construction of railways, and we made an unintentional mistake." Wang Jingwei argued: "Mitsui's provision of funds is also inaccurate, and it is a loan relationship between us. ”

"This excuse is useless." Zhao Bingjun shook his head lightly and said lightly: "If the government makes these documents public, guess what the attitude of the outside world is?" What are the results for you? ”

Wang Jingwei swallowed hard, and the result could be known without guessing. The public opinion created by the government is ready and defines them as traitors. Once it is made public, I am afraid that there will be no second result except for being ruined.

Zhao Bingjun lit a cigarette unhurriedly, leisurely spit out the smoke ring, and looked at Wang Jingwei with some teasing eyes.

What to do? Wang Jingwei's head was chaotic. He is well aware of the current situation, just one month ago, Japan forced South Korea to sign the "Korea-Japan Entente" and openly annexed South Korea, which was like a blow to the Chinese. Remarks such as "Outside the world, Goryeo was destroyed, Manchuria was also divided, and China's fate hung by a thread," and "at this time, newspapers everywhere published the deeds of Goryeo's demise and tried their best to stir up the hearts of the scholars," and other remarks filled the newspapers, and the vigilance and precautions against Japan were being recognized by the broad masses of the people.

The timing of the Baath Party was well placed, and the League was preparing to attack the government for its concessions to the Great Powers on the railroad question, and to undermine the prestige of the government by losing some of its rights. The evidence is also very well grasped, as long as it is made public by the media, clarification and quibbling will be of no avail, and the current trend of public opinion is very favorable to the government.

Sighing, Wang Jingwei raised his head. Said bitterly: "Minister Zhao, what is the opinion of the government, or the Baath Party, you can clearly say it!" ”

Zhao Bingjun nodded and said, "You resign from your part-time positions and go abroad for inspection." As for the Chancellor of the League. As a result of the moderates, the government's impression of Hu Hanmin is not bad. ”

"What about later?" Wang Jingwei asked uneasily.

"Brother Zhaoming is brilliant and romantic, and the government feels that it should not be abandoned." Zhao Bingjun smiled faintly: "After the inspection, as long as you can completely wake up, the government thinks that Brother Zhaoming is competent enough for the post of governor of Guizhou Province." As for Mr. Sun, he could serve as a government adviser when he returned to China. ”

It seems that the government does not want to be too harsh and force the alliance to break the jar. made both sides spittle. A moderate partisan is what the government wants to see.

Wang Jingwei nodded helplessly and put away the documents on the table, but Zhao Bingjun stretched out his hand, covered the documents, and said meaningfully: "Brother Zhaoming, the president still values your talent very much, and I hope you can show your loyalty to the government with practical actions." ”

Wang Jingwei groaned. He said in a deep voice: "I understand, thank you for the great president's love." ”

Looking back at the past from the perspective of the present. One would think that some of Dr. Sun Yat-sen's promises to creditors in the fundraising of the revolution seem reckless, bold, and even unprincipled. Perhaps Sun ZS did not feel guilty about the privileges, status, and concessions offered. Because, his attention was focused on one great goal: to overthrow the hated Qing Dynasty. Establish a progressive regime that is beneficial to the Chinese nation.

However, the idea of "betraying the country for the sake of saving the country" was not accepted by Chen Wenqiang, and a radical and wild-minded party was not accepted by the government. Then, there is only one way to solve it. Grasp the handle, suppress and disintegrate.

Sun ZS resigned from the post of Minister of Railways for health reasons, and took his secretary Wang Jingwei abroad for medical treatment. At the same time, he resigned as the premier of the League and designated Hu Hanmin to take over.

Liao Zhongkai resigned as vice minister of finance and followed Sun Yat-sen. Although the inside truth of Sun Yat-sen's overseas investigation was covered up, the League still fell into a trough.

Surprisingly, the government did not go on a killing spree against League officials. President Soong Kyo-jen has openly declared that he wants to establish a supra-party staff that anyone with the same ideas and aspirations as him can join. His political charm lies in his enthusiasm, and enthusiasm is the overflow of hope. A lively, powerful, united, and resolute team began to take shape.

"My politics is about fairness and justice, so I try not to push people into a desperate situation; My principle is: When the opposition appears, I will fight against them, and when we have been on the side of justice, I will immediately cease my army. The acquisition of power is not victory, it is giving. What our country needs to unite is not the strength of a certain political party or the support of a certain stratum of people, but the deep conscience, enthusiasm and strong will of the people of the whole country. May this condensation ignite a flame of revival and enhance the strength and status of the country. I pray here that all honest, patriotic, forward-looking people will come to me and become my advisors and supporters. He expressed his position in good faith at the press conference and allowed reporters to publish freely.

He was the first person in political history for a president to meet a reporter face to face. His purpose in doing so is not to curry favor with the media, but to use the media so that the government's forward-looking views can be disseminated to the public in the most efficient way.

Song Jiaoren is indeed very suitable for engaging in politics, his enthusiasm is like fire, and his movements are as fast as the wind. He infects everyone with practical actions, strives for everyone's support with a sincere attitude, and realizes his ideals with his work of forgetting sleep and food.

In May 1910, the spring breeze blowing again seemed to be a myriad of sharp swords that pierced the old world. The revolution succeeded, the republic was established, and people seemed a little overwhelmed at first, but soon adapted to the much more relaxed conditions of life than during the Manchu rule. Everyone is looking forward to the future and planning a new life according to their own understanding, consciously or unconsciously.

A few people dressed as businessmen quietly came to Tianjin, and they stayed in the Buddha Zhao Building in the French Concession. They speak in Chinese, and although their demeanor is slightly restrained, they do not arouse suspicion on the outside. One of them, who was obviously the backbone of this group, was old and resolute, but he seemed a little worried. Despite wearing glasses, you can still feel that his gaze is burning and his expression is uneasy.

Fozhaolou located near the Zizhulin Wharf is a famous inn in Tianjin, it sits north to south, three facades, a long courtyard, a two-story brick and wood structure circle building, there is a closed canopy with skylight in the courtyard, and there are more than 20 guest rooms. In the novel "Hate the Sea", the late Qing Dynasty novelist Wu Zhaoren called it opened by Cantonese people, and it was very lenient. Needless to say, there are many interesting stories about this old building, which is at least 120 years old.

In 1904, Lu Bicheng, a talented woman living in her uncle's house in Tanggu, ran away angrily in order to go to Tianjin to study for a new study, and fortunately met the hostess of the Fozhaolou Hotel in Tianjin. This kind housewife took pity on her life experience and left her in the Buddha Zhao Building. After seeing his letter of help, the founder of Ta Kung Pao Hall Yingzhi was greatly admired, and he personally went to Fozhaolou to visit Xian, and sincerely invited him to be the editor of the newspaper, so that he could settle down from then on. It was a good story for a while.

It can be seen that the hospitality of Fozhaolou has a tradition. The humble shopkeeper regarded the bespectacled guest as a frustrated businessman, and in the conversation with the guest, he naturally inevitably commented on the "world" and comforted him with kind words.

"People, how come they are all alive, the people of Pingtou have coarse tea and light rice, the emperor and the queen mother have delicacies from the mountains and seas, I don't know if the guests have visited the Forbidden City?" The shopkeeper enthusiastically persuaded: "I happened to be in Beijing at the time, catching up with freshness, I went to see the lively ones, I have entered the palace in my life, I have seen the dragon chair, it is really something that I can't even think of." ”

"Is it nice in the Forbidden City?" Shen asked with interest.

"It's good-looking, it's good-looking." The shopkeeper smacked his lips and said, "There are explanations in every place, so that you can understand and see in detail." What I remember most clearly is the pomp and circumstance of the emperor and the queen mother's meal, there are eight courtyards in the dining room alone, more than 100 houses, and more than 100 cooks and waiters. There are more than 100 delicacies in one meal, and more than 100 kinds of pastries, fruits, candies, and dried fruits. It's so extravagant and wasteful that people can't open their eyes. ”

"Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road." Shen Ta sighed: "So this Qing Dynasty is dead." ”

"Yes, it should die, it should die in the Gengzi years." The shopkeeper echoed: "If you die early, the people will get better early." ”

"Oh, the shopkeeper is talking about it, what do the common people have to do?" Shen asked with a smile.
