Chapter 773: Cause and Effect (I)

Since the peace between the north and the south, the country has finally stopped sword fighting, and the end of the Taixi War has announced that the world has rarely entered a period of relative peace. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoFrom the 8th year to the 10th year of the Commonwealth, the short period of peace has allowed the economy to recover.

The armistice between the north and the south, the passage of railways, the marketing of Lu goods throughout the country, coupled with the increase in import tariffs, the price advantage of foreign goods gradually weakened, and the commerce of the local people finally showed some signs of resurrection. Due to Chen Lenghe's good organization and sufficient reserves, a total of two lines of banknotes were handed over, and by this time, it had returned to the market when it was first issued, and the one-yuan banknote could be used as an octagonal silver ocean.

As the heroes of all this, Chen Lenghe and Diane have received a lot of praise and praise in the business and political circles of the capital. Two strong women who are well-organized and economical have become a very eye-catching landscape in the capital. The former led the development of the clothing and jewelry industry in Beijing, as long as she liked what clothes, what clothes soon became the first choice for upper-class women to wear. Even the way of dressing up and the combination of dressing have led countless ladies to seek after.

Although the latter is not as eye-catching as Chen Lenghe, it is better than gentleness and generosity, and is regarded as a model of oriental women, many women will be jealous of Chen Lenghe, and in private, they will issue vicious curses to him. But for Anne, few people will speak ill of her, but they all think that this goddess of wealth is approachable and easy to communicate.

The two women have an unacceptable relationship, but they have an intimate relationship with the same man, and the relationship becomes more and more intimate because they live in the capital more than they live in Jinan. Even though they now hold the economic lifeline of the commonality, they still live in a villa.

In their small villa, there were no servants, only a row of female bodyguards from the Shandong Intelligence Agency, who were responsible for the safety of the two and served food. When Leng He entered through the door, a female soldier neatly took her clothes and said to her, "Mrs. Anne came back earlier than you today. Look at the meaning, the bank is not busy. ”

"Everything is fine, there's not much to do. The last time you asked me, what can you buy to make money, let me tell you, if you want to insure, there is a positive yuan, if you want to make money, you have to buy the public bonds of the Beijing-Jiji Railway. Tell Mrs. Dai that she can handle as much public debt as she wants. ”

In two years, the experience of childbirth has not left traces on Leng He, she is still as beautiful and moving as Songjiang, like a fairy out of the dust. When she changed into her home casual jacket and pants and walked into the bedroom lazily, Anne said enviously: "No wonder Guanhou likes you so much, you are like a fairy, you will not be old, if you go to participate in the beauty contest in Jinan, everyone will not participate, because you are the champion, who dares to compare with Sister Leng He." ”

"Your mouth is getting sweeter, come and let me taste it...... That beauty contest was a gimmick made by Guanhou, and the purpose was to sell things. The girls who participated in the competition, wearing clothes and jewelry produced in our store, are equivalent to live advertisements. Now even the newspapers in the capital are publishing this matter, which shows that his advertisement has been successful. As for what Miss Shandong, what laurels, it is nothing more than a foil. In fact, the main purpose is still for money. I don't want to join in the fun, I know that in the heart of the answer, it is enough that I am the most beautiful. Come on, let me see if there are any photos sent today. ”

As she spoke, she lay side by side with Anne, her calves curled up, her shoes thrown off, her slender feet swinging to and fro like a mischievous child. and the female god of wealth who usually dominates the bank and gives orders, judging the two of them.

Anne smiled and pushed the album over, "Okay, look at your two daughters, how cute they are." You see Mrs. Su holding them, smiling so sweetly, and Guanhou, she simply treats them as live treasures. ”

Concentrate and look at these newly sent photos, showing a pair of little girls in princess dresses, laughing at the camera. There are also a few photos, which are the embarrassed faces covered with cake cream, including their naΓ―ve appearance after falling asleep, and the pitiful appearance of crying, all of which are missing. Obviously, the marshal's mansion specially prepared cameras for the two young ladies, otherwise it would not have been possible to capture them so timely.

Leng He looked at the photo, the expression on his face became more and more beautiful and moving, and his smile was full of maternal kindness. "They love each other so much, I miss this pair of babies. Annie, you say, will they see each other again and not know me? ”

"How is that possible? Every time Guanhou comes to Beijing, he will bring two little babies over, and you often go to Shandong, how clingy the two girls are, you don't know. ”

"That's right, but look at it, Sister Su hugged them so tightly, and the two girls were also very clingy to her, I was a little scared. Will she snatch my two children away, just like filial piety and respect, and call her mother? On the other hand, she only calls me Mother He, in that case, I have to fight with her. ”

"No, you're thinking too much." Anne smiled: "Your child will always be yours, and you can't run away." If you miss them, let Sister Xiurong help you, and you can take leave to go home and have a look. Anyway, there is no major event in the bank now, and the issuance of Jifeng Railway bonds is going very smoothly, and Duan Zhiquan no longer asks us to withdraw money. I heard that they are now going to set up a new bank and use that bank to fight against us. For us, this is a good thing, as soon as the new bank is established, we just push out those annoying things, anyway, the original purpose of the crown has been achieved. Lu Piao has made a lot of money since he exchanged the co-paid tickets, and he can't afford to fight with them. ”

Leng He hesitated for a moment, but shook his head again, "It's Duan Zhiquan's new establishment of a bank, so I can't let it go." Liang Shiyi, who has been dormant for so long, came back and set up a Zhongka Industrial Bank, I always feel that Duan Zhiquan is not honest and wants to make some articles in the economy. If you think about it, in the past two years, he has rarely asked for money from our bank, and even if he borrows money, he will repay it quickly. Of course, this is due to the influence of the crown marquis, but don't you think that their repayment speed is a bit unusual? When did the total have been so rich and able to pay back so quickly? ”

"I know, everyone is suspicious, but it's hard to find out. Guanhou even used intelligence officers, but it is said that it is the deputy chief Xu who controls these funds, and outsiders know very little. I only know that Xu Cichang has a very hard foreign friend, who can borrow a large amount of foreign debts, and negotiated the return of the salt surplus. Originally, because of Hong Xian and the Civil War, Capet deducted more than 60 million of our salt balance. Now they promise to return this money, probably they are using this money to support expenses, right? ”

"That being said, I always felt that it wasn't that simple. Recently, I heard the news that Duan Zhiquan was going to purchase arms from Shandong for the border guards. The order is very large. ”

Anne smiled: "It's a good thing, in the past two years, Mr. Duan has simply been the big financier of our Shandong." Every time, I placed a large order to purchase arms, and I paid very happily. With these orders, our Shandong military industry will not have nothing to do, and the economy will not have to worry. In the past two years, Shandong has been growing, and Mr. Duan can be regarded as a great contributor. ”

"Fool. That's arms, not anything else, don't fight, why buy so many arms? Although nominally, it is for the border guards, used to defend the country and defend territorial integrity. But I always feel ...... This is Zhang Hu's skin, which is covered underneath, but I am afraid that it is something unseemly. The accounts of the border guards have always been denied the participation of financial personnel in the verification, and even if I formed an investigation team on the side of the Ministry of Finance, I was blocked by the troops. It is said that it involves military secrets and cannot be disclosed to the public...... There must be a problem. ”

Anne tilted her head and looked at Leng He, "Then Sister Leng He, do you think that Duan Zhiquan may be unfavorable to Shandong?" You must be thinking too much, how dare he? We have even defeated the Fusang, how dare he mess around? ”

"I hope I'm thinking too much. However, Xu Youzheng's actions in the past two years have become more and more unusual to me. First, on the pretext of participating in the Taixi War, he organized and trained the army to participate in the war. After the end of the Taixi War, the participating army could not continue, so it was changed to a border guard, and now he is building a railway with his second brother. This person gives me a bad feeling, very insidious, and when he used to oppose us, everyone used their own means to forget it. Now that he has nothing to do, I think his intentions are sinister. ”

"I heard that Mr. Duan and Xu Youzheng went to Xishan to train their troops. No matter what bad intentions they have, I don't dare to come at us. The weather in Beijing is too hot, let's go back to Shandong......" Anne pointed to the photo of the twins, and her face flushed with a hint of "I...... I want such a baby too. ”

West Mountain, Martial Arts Hall.

In the pre-Jin era, this was the school field for the training of the golden soldiers. When it comes to Gonghe, it is still a place for soldiers to train and exercise. With the roar of gunfire, the target was smashed to pieces. Under the instructor's command, the soldiers loaded, aimed, and shot at a smooth speed and uniform movements.

When the drill task of one army is completed, the officers wave their flags, the military band blows the trumpet, and the other unit runs into the field, saluting each other with the retreating troops, staggering by, the formation is tight, and there is no confusion at all.

In the distance, rows of cannons face the sky, although these cannons are only models, but they still look full of texture, similar to the real cannons. On each cannon model, the Capetian text "The King's Last Argument" is also engraved in imitation of the real cannon

In the observation post, Duan Zhiquan put down his binoculars and looked at Xu Youzheng beside him, "Tie Shan, when you went to Shandong to watch the exercise last year, how did the performance of the Lu army compare with our army?" ”

"Evenly matched. The quality of the soldiers is not high or low, as for the battlefield...... Then it depends on the commander's means. Xu Youzheng's back was straight, "However, there is still a difference between us and Lu Jun." In the past two years, the Lu army has been engaged in discharge, and when the veterans reach the age, they will withdraw from the army. There are some people who have been absorbed into the team by us, and through communicating with them, I can confirm that our training methods are no different from those of the Lu army. Moreover, as there are more and more troops in the ranks of the Lu army that have not gone through actual combat, our troops have seen blood with real swords and guns in border defense, and the quality of officers is different, and the reaction to the battle is also different. I believe that if you compare, we are the better. ”

Duan Zhiquan's face was overjoyed, "If that's the case, then our troops haven't worked in vain!" Two years ago, you advised me to learn from Liu Bang, the king of Han, and endure Xiang Yu for a while. Look at it now, isn't it time for Jintai to worship the commander and leave Chencang? ”

Xu Youzheng shook his head and said, "You can't be in a hurry. The Lu army has several magic weapons in the war, one is that the material supply of the troops is sufficient, and each soldier's daily staple food is one catty and eight taels, and the other magic weapon is the guarantee of the soldiers. including lifelong upbringing of disabled soldiers......"

Not long ago, there was a group of communist veterans, including most of the crippled soldiers, who were not responsible for their lives and had a difficult livelihood, and wore old military uniforms with white shampoo and shampoo, and rallied to the army department to explain the situation. Most of these people are petty officers, some of them still have medals on them, but many more people, in order to survive, have already sold their medals.

In the republican military system, there has never been such a thing as an invalid. If you enlist in the army, you will be paid, and you will have a bonus for winning battles, but if you are injured or even disabled, you will have to bear the consequences. Especially these officers, who belong to different provinces, Duan Zhiquan asked himself, there is no obligation to pay them salaries, let alone pensions.

The rally turned into a clash as emotionally out-of-control gatherers began cursing and throwing stones at the War Department. The guards of the general department were originally responsible for maintaining law and order, and confronted these seniors in the army. But I don't know who made it hot by the stones, and actually shot back, and the tragedy broke out.

Now that the fire has been fired, let's get the job done to the end. Platoons of cavalry charged at the remnants of the republic, whips and clubs instead of sabers, stumbling and bleeding from the crippled robes of the republics or against Hong Xian. The soldiers had no choice but to shout and sing the anthem of the Republic.

This incident caused the death of double-digit remnants, and Duan Zhiquan later explained on the grounds that he did not know in advance, and vowed to form an investigation team to seriously investigate and punish the soldiers who fired the guns. He publicly swore that he would be a lifelong vegetarian and believe in Buddhism, and he would exceed, and punish himself for the remnants of these innocent soldiers.

The members of the Congress, under the manipulation of the Anfu Club, did not initiate impeachment, but this does not mean that Duan Zhiquan passed the test smoothly. This incident is like a thunderbolt, just hanging on the head, God knows when it will explode. But to let him raise these remnants of the army is tantamount to breaking the rules of the military world for many years. These remnants are just the tip of the iceberg of the remnants of the Communists, if they are raised, if others come out to ask for the same treatment, with the financial resources of the Communists, how can they be raised?

The economy must be improved, the cancer must be eradicated, and the ...... must be Take that treasure mountain down. Duan Zhiquan knew that somewhere, there was a lot of wealth, and as long as he included it under his rule, the whole world would be in his hands.

This union has been divided for too long, and it is time to become one. Since we have the merit of rebuilding the reunification, we should also have the merit of unifying the north and the south, so that we can play the right role in our own position and the identity of the reincarnation of the reincarnation.

Xu Youzheng said: "So, now is not the time. We can not support those remnants, but we must pay the brethren on the front line. Even if you eat savings in the future, it will be enough to live a lifetime. Only in this way, on the battlefield, can they sacrifice their lives and forget to charge. At present, we don't have enough money, and what we need most now is funds. ”

"You mean, that foreign debt has been settled? But that's the Fuso people's ......."

"Zhao Guanhou mortgaged the sovereignty of Shandong, borrowed the debt of the Prussians, and was still a hero in the end. The things of the world, in the final analysis, are the power of two words. As long as we have the power, we are right, and this is the hardest truth. When we dominate the world, will anyone be able to trouble us with this foreign debt? This debt, it doesn't matter who it is, as long as the money is real, you can borrow it! ”
