Now, the people on the rostrum are speaking, and the reporters under the rostrum are busy recording the speeches and recording the moment with their cameras, and the technicians who are responsible for relaying the radio signals to the radio station are also busy to ensure that the signals are stable.

As the vice president, Zhang Han is sitting in the corner now, if you don't pay attention, it is difficult to find his trace, and the two people sitting next to him are not ordinary people, the one on the left, Zhou Xuexi. Senator of Congress, the leading figure in the north of China's business circles at that time, and Zhang Sai was known as the "Southern Zhang and Northern Zhou" to the right of the Ministry Tingbi. Senator of the Diet, a financier and industrialist who is now famous in Kyushu. The financial empire under its name is quite large. The banking industry alone is enough to dominate the world. At present, apart from the Salt Industry Bank, it is the most powerful bank trust in the country, and it is considered to be the leader in private banking.

As the vice president, it is naturally difficult to take care of business. Zhang Mi had already handed over the family business to the younger generations of the clan to take care of, and he was only immersed in politics. Although the vice president is only a nominal position, because he has access to the formulation of central policies, the position of vice president is also quite important in the eyes of others, and compared with the president who relies on the support of the chaebol, the vice president is not weak at all. Because he himself is a chaebol.

It is precisely because of this that Zhou Xuexi and Ministry Tingbi deliberately strengthened their contact with Zhang Sai. All three are wealthy chaebols, and they are both economic and political allies. Although Zhou Xuexi and Bu Tingbi belong to two different political organizations, the National League and the United Front. But in reality, in terms of economic interests, the two have a lot in common, and it is necessary to form a political alliance. and took refuge under the Zhangsai Gate. All in one. One loses all.

But on the other hand, it is different from Zhou Xuexi. At the same time, the ministry also maintained some contact with the president of the lower field, Zhao Bei, who was supported by Zhao Bei back then, no matter from which point of view, there was no reason for the ministry to alienate him from Zhao Bei. Similarly, the reason why Zhou Xuexi and Zhang Sai are willing to get closer to Bu Tingbi, a "political enemy" from the United Front, is not necessarily that they do not have the intention of using this line to leave a way back for themselves politically.

But then again, for Zhao Bei's actions this time. Ministry Tingbi really didn't know anything in advance, and the political smoke released by Zhao Bei in the past few years also confused him.

Zhang, Zhou, and Ministry, these three people have their own needs, and at the same time, they also take what they need, after the end of their political affairs. Over the past four years, they have used this alliance to their advantage. It is also because of the tool. Although the world economy is in the Great Depression. But instead of being weakened, their industrial empire grew stronger. The companies under their names are also the representatives of trust enterprises and syndicate enterprises in this era. The economic crisis is not a crisis for them. It's an opportunity. In this respect, they are not fundamentally different from the American chaebol and the Japanese chaebol.

As chaebols, all three know what power will bring to their own businesses. At the same time, they also believe that as long as they control the Congress, even the president of the Republic of China can only bow down to them, and it is precisely because of this. They have been planning something very important for some time now, and that is the next presidential election.

The incumbent president, Le Yuanhong, is old and young, and his past four years in power have been basically lackluster. Therefore, the three of them are not optimistic about Li Shi's attempt to seek re-election, then, in this case, it is necessary to let a trustworthy person take over as the next president. Second, the energy is insufficient and incompetent. So resolutely refusal. and proposed his preferred candidate. This person is the current speaker of the Senate of the National Assembly, Tang Hualong, and Tang is obviously also interested in further development in the political circles, and the two sides hit it off, so Tang Hualong immediately announced his withdrawal from the United Front, waiting for the official start of the election, at that time, he will run as a member of the National League, and give the United Front a heavy blow in terms of momentum, in retaliation for the United Front General Committee for expelling him from the list of candidates.

But at this time, Shilu made a trip to bite the gold, first there were public demonstrations in various places, demanding to improve living conditions and obtain universal suffrage, and then veterans from all over the country entered Beijing with their families and asked the president to meet them.

Zhang Ling, Zhou Xuexi, and Bu Tingbi, all three of whom were politically aware, and Zhao Bei's performance in the veterans' march immediately made them aware of a serious problem. That is, Zhao Bei is likely to seek a resurgence in the political arena. Moreover, he jumped out at the moment when the presidential election was about to be held sooner or later, which is likely to indicate that he intends to return to the presidential palace by taking the "electoral route". Hold central power.

The "Far East madman" is going to participate in the presidential election, this speculation shocked everyone, Zhang Sai and Zhou Xuexi immediately realized that their wishful thinking may be in vain, and the Ministry of Tingbi also has the same worries, judging from the implementation of Zhao Bei's various policies before the lower field, he is extremely disgusted with those big chaebols who can influence the government's administrative decisions, but they are all such big chaebols. What's even worse is that. The three of them were unsure about controlling Zhao Bei. Even if it is the Congress, I am afraid it is not Zhao Bei's opponent.

If one were to ask who was most anxious to preserve the constitutional system right now, it would be undoubtedly. These three must be in the vanguard.

Keeping in touch with Zhao Bei is a small concept, but let Zhao Bei ride on their heads, this is another concept, for these three people, Xiao Zhao Bei can be friends, but not their top lice

In fact, the three of them only really confirmed that their speculation was correct today, and Zhao He's high-profile reappearance in front of the countrymen, crying can only show that he is only ready, the preparation of the government, and the rest depends on how to perform his pro-people policy.

Now, the three of them are together. They are worried that once Zhao Bei becomes president again, the policies of the central government are likely to change greatly, and the life of the big chaebol will become difficult.

The three of them all thought that if Zhao Bei insisted on making a comeback, then he would definitely come back, and no one could stop him.

But then again. This is, after all, the Capitol Chamber. It's really not a good place to discuss secrets, so the three of them didn't talk deeply, they all stopped at the point, so as not to let people talk too much and leak the news.

"That's it for now. When the soup comes, we'll find another time to talk about it. Right now. Let's listen to the grievances of the petitioners. ”

Zhang Cha ended the seemingly meaningless gathering with a single sentence, and then the three of them raised their heads and looked at the rostrum to listen to what the spokesman was saying.

Right now. The person who was speaking from the podium was a veteran. And he was a lame man, Zhou Xuexi asked the senator next to him, and only then did he learn. The disabled veteran's name is Yang Ben, who used to be Zhao Bei's guard, and his leg was broken by a mine in the Sino-Japanese Northeast Asian War, and after that, Yang Ben was discharged. took a sum of retirement money and disability pension to do small business, and when the economic crisis came a few years ago. I went bankrupt and had a difficult life, so I had no choice but to participate in this petition. It is considered to be one of the more representative people in the petition team.

At this moment, Yang Ben has been speaking on the rostrum for more than 20 minutes, either complaining or scolding, scolding the government, the chaebols, the profiteers who do not pay back the money, the reporters who report false news, and even the little white faces who abduct women from good families in the dance hall.

"Vulgar people

Zhou Xuexi shook his head, and the senator next to him listened to his evaluation, and shook his head with a wry smile, there was no way. Originally, the people were not interested in listening to the petitioners talk about their hard lives, but first, the president nodded, and secondly, "Far Eastern madmen." More than 10,000 people were brought to help. They couldn't listen to it, so the parliamentarians had to sit patiently in the conference hall and listen to the grumbling and grumbling people at the bottom of the society tell about their tragic experiences in the economic crisis.

"Bang! Bang! "Bang! Bang! ”

When Yang Ben said that he was excited, he couldn't help but bang on the table, using the tool that was his prosthetic leg made of wood, and scolded while knocking on the table.

"Think about the past! If it weren't for the Lao Tzu who worked hard to fight the Japanese, where would you have a good life today? Now, all of you eat shiny and shiny, but look at the old men, drinking porridge every day, gnawing on the nest, the clothes on this body are torn and mended, mended, all dressed like flowers, all of them are Chinese, why is it one heaven and one earth? Let me tell you, Lao Tzu is not convinced. I'm not convinced! Today, you either give Lao Tzu an explanation, or Lao Tzu will sit here and not leave."

Hearing these words, the members present couldn't help but look at each other, this is pointing the finger at the congressmen. Some parliamentarians' faces immediately changed, and they all looked at President Li Yuanhong, who was sitting on the side of the rostrum, but they saw that he was closing his eyes and recuperating, obviously intending to stay out of the matter. I'm afraid I don't plan to get up and scold this fanatic who doesn't know how high or low he is.

The soldiers brought out by this madman are very different.

At present, everyone looks sideways, hands to ear, the election of members of Congress is limited by property, the poor can not enter the Congress, most of the members here, most of them are businessmen or their political spokespersons, a few are famous cultural people, and so many famous Peking Opera actors, everyone pays attention to a "image scolding without dirty words is the highest level, although there is usually no less noise in the Congress, but such a vulgar speech now, everyone is really the first time to see it."

"What is Zhao Zhenhua going to do? He deliberately asked the radio station to set up a broadcasting machine here, and he didn't call the listeners in front of the radio to listen to the nonsense, right? ”

Zhou Xuexi was a little puzzled, so he went to ask Zhang

Zhang Cha smiled faintly and said, "If you are in the teahouse now, I am afraid that you will be able to hear the cheers around you." This is what Yang Ben said. Isn't it said that it has reached the eyes of the majority of the people? In this world, rich people are a minority after all, and most people are still busy for three meals a day

As soon as Zhang Sai said this, Zhou Xuexi suddenly realized and said, "I see! Zhao Zhenhua is planning to create public opinion

"What public opinion? Is it possible to raise the tax rate more? The ministry was puzzled and asked.

Zhang Sai shook his head and said: "What's the hurry, soon this one will finish speaking, even if the performance of the petition delegates is over, the next thing will be Zhao Zhenhua's performance, and when the time comes, what kind of medicine is sold in his gourd, it will be clear when he hears it."

The other two nodded again and again, so they stopped talking and continued to listen to the speeches on the rostrum, taking advantage of this time, Ministry Tingbi glanced at Zhao Bei, who was sitting next to Tang Shaoyi, but found that the corners of his mouth were tense, his face was expressionless, and no one could guess what he was thinking.

"If you want to come back, come back, what are you doing with so many mysteries? Is it true that you really want to learn from the leader of Italy? If you really want to learn, you learned back then. Do you have to wait until now? ”

With this thought, Ministry Tingbi picked up the handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and as soon as he put the handkerchief back in his pocket, the speech on the rostrum was over, and then there was silence, until the presiding officer of the meeting, Tang Hualong, said expressionlessly, "Senator Zhao, please speak", and the congressmen breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, it's finally the main turn. (To be continued.)
