Low gasps, suppressed moans, heavy creaks from the bed, and it took a long time for the storm to subside. Liu Yinshu hugged her lover's neck with a satisfied face, and her body was still close to his body. This is a body that fascinates men, Zhuang Jihua stroked the smooth skin while remembering the words of marriage experts in his previous life, from the perspective of the surname, the newlyweds' infatuation with ** is generally only three months, but more than half a year has passed, and he is still obsessed with the delicate body in his arms.

"Mommy is coming." Liu Yinshu suddenly murmured in a low voice.

"Hmm." Zhuang Jihua snorted from his nostrils.

"Well," perhaps dissatisfied with his lover's indifference, Liu Yinshu moved coquettishly in his arms: "My mother is coming to see me." ”

"yes, I see." Zhuang Jihua still doesn't care: "When the time comes, it's okay to live in a guest house, it's still a new house." ”

Liu Yinshu took a light bite on his shoulder, Zhuang Jihua turned over and pressed her under him, grabbing the soft piece on her chest: "Okay, it turns out that I married a puppy, and it is still a puppy that bites people indiscriminately." ”

"Whoever made you not care, that's my mommy coming." Liu Yinshu then hummed lightly in her nostrils: "Light, it's not enough." ”

"How can I be?" Zhuang Jihua took her into his arms again, and he liked to hold her in his arms like this: "By the way, where did she come from?" Guangdong? ”

"It's not Guangdong or there." Liu Yinshu said.

"There is a war on the border between Jiangxi and Guangdong, and the border between Hunan and Guangdong is not calm, this road is not easy to walk, it is better not to take this road, take the line of Shanghai and Wuhan." Zhuang Jihua remembered the recent war briefing.

Chiang Kai-shek launched the fourth encirclement and suppression of the Zhumao Red Army at the beginning of January, this time he mobilized 500,000 troops, divided into left, center and right three ways to attack, the left road with the 19th Route Army as the mainstay, and the right road with Yu Hanmou led by six divisions of the Guangdong Army, these two roads are mainly assistance and defense, Chiang Kai-shek's main force is the middle road under the command of Chen Cheng; Chen Cheng's troops were divided into three routes, with Luo Zhuoying, Wu Qiwei, and Zhao Guantao as the command, and adopted the tactics of separate attacks and combined attacks, eliminating the main force of the Zhumao Red Army in one fell swoop. On the other hand, He Jian of the Hunan army gathered heavy troops on the Hunan and Jiangxi borders, ready to intercept the Red Army fleeing to Hunan at any time.

"Ha, you, you're going to have an occupational disease, and everything depends on politics and military. Still, I'm glad to reward you. Liu Yinshu smiled, lightly tapped his forehead with her fingers, and then kissed him again.

"When you go out, you have to look at the time of day to avoid unnecessary trouble." Zhuang Jihua was very satisfied with the delicacy in his arms, and hugged her tighter: "This is a mess, your father can rest assured that she will go out alone?" ”

"She didn't come alone, and she was accompanied by her eldest brother." Liu Yinshu buried her head in Zhuang Jihua's neck again.

"Your eldest brother? The one who studied abroad in the U.S.? Zhuang Jihua asked.

"Hmm."

"How could he be free?" Zhuang Jihua is a little strange.

"Who knows." Zhuang Jihua asked, Liu Yinshu felt a little strange, when she left home, her eldest brother Liu Long was still studying in the United States, and when she was in Yunqiao, she didn't dare to contact her family because she was worried that her family would take her away, and she didn't know what her eldest brother would do after returning to China.

"What did your eldest brother study in the United States?" Zhuang Jihua asked.

"It seems to be finance, I don't know very well; By the way, Cultural Revolution, I'll discuss things with you," Liu Yinshu suddenly raised her head and propped her elbows on the bed: "I saw a notice for recruiting teachers in the town today, I want to go, okay?" ”

"Ha, of course it's okay," Zhuang Jihua smiled, and it seemed that everywhere was starting to act: "I still forgot, my wife is a serious college student, and it is more than enough to be a middle school teacher." ”

"You agreed!" In the dark, Liu Yinshu showed a sweet smile: "I thought you didn't agree." ”

"My wife can also earn money, eighty oceans, well, good, good, really good." Zhuang Jihua hugged him tightly in his arms.

"But my mother said that a woman's duty is to serve her man well, and men don't like their women to show their heads." Liu Yinshu muttered.

"Your mom is right, but I'm not like those men." Zhuang Jihua is very proud, his mother-in-law is really good at educating her children, it seems that some traditions should be maintained.

"The new mayor of Yucheng, Mr. He Guoguang, announced the complete exemption of agricultural taxes in the jurisdiction for the first time in the 3,000-year history of this ancient country, which once again proves the central government's determination to develop the southwest,......。 Wall Street Newspaper, New York

"The announcement of the complete exemption of agricultural taxes and the implementation of free and compulsory education in the Yucheng area caused a strong shock in all walks of life in Sichuan, and all walks of life in Chengdu petitioned the provincial political axe, asking the provincial political axe to follow the Yucheng area, reduce the tax burden, and develop the ,...。 education." Chengdu "Xinshu News"

"We don't know how much money the political axe has invested in the development of the southwest, but we have to ask why this kind of moral policy is not implemented throughout the country...... "Declaration"

"The recent decrees implemented by the municipal axe are really the gospel of the people of the sixteen counties of Yucheng, and the people of Yucheng have been deeply affected by the warlords for many years, and all kinds of taxes are complicated, so that the market has spread the saying that there is only a fart without taxes...... "Yucheng Business Daily"

Therefore, we think that the tax exemption of the Yucheng political axe is suspected of grandstanding, and it is too early to start praising it now, if it can be truly implemented, of course, it is the blessing of the people of Yuzhou,..." Yucheng "Jialingjiang Daily"

……

Compulsory free education and exemption from agricultural taxes are like two pebbles thrown into calm water, and from all parts of Sichuan to Beiping, Shanghai, the news media all over the country are vying to report on it, and all of them will be skeptical. But it was those who were more shaken by those in power.

"I don't understand, I don't understand, the turtle son doesn't know what to do, he said that the future son Lange has passed." After reading the newspaper, Deng Xihou touched the back of his head and said with a wry smile to Tian Songyao, who came to ask for help.

"Isn't this a subtraction for tax cuts, didn't he push us to the fire pit like this?" Tian Songyao snorted angrily and complained: "The bandits want money, and Lao Tzu will go there to get money." ”

"Didn't Liu Xiang give it?" Deng Xihou looked at Tian Songyao with a little surprise: "Now that the tax power has been collected by the provincial government, even if you want to raise taxes, it won't reach you." ”

"Isn't that the case," Tian Songyao spread his hands and scolded angrily: "I was looking for Liu Xiang, and his turtle son actually said that the tax revenue has not come up this year, and the provincial political axe has no money for the time being, so he is x!" ”

Deng Xihou was confused, Tian Songyao was scolding, but Liu Xiang was under more pressure.

The tax reduction was agreed on a long time ago, but no one expected that Zhuang Jihua's tax reduction would have such a large range, the agricultural tax for thousands of years was exempted, the commercial tax was actually 2%, and the entire Yucheng area could almost be said to be tax-free. In the face of the gradually rising calls in Chengdu, Liu Xiang felt that it was impossible not to come up with some benefits, but how much would this tax reduction be? If there is less, I am afraid that public opinion will not be able to pass, and if there is more, it will be heartbroken, and what will happen in the future.

"What does this Zhuang Cultural Revolution want to do?" Liu Xiang now thinks of that face, which was originally relatively clear, but now it is blurry again, and it is getting more and more blurred.

"Who knows? I don't understand it either, give us 16 million here, tax exemption over there, and free education, and he takes so much money? Fu Chang was very puzzled, even if Zhuang Jihua wanted to buy people's hearts, he didn't buy them like this.

"It was certainly not given by Chiang Kai-shek," Liu Hangchen immediately replied: "I have estimated that if the tax reduction of the Zhuang Cultural Revolution is followed, the tax revenue of Yucheng this year will only be about three million oceans; What about expenditure, taking education as an example, to build schools in each township, there are a total of 282 towns in 16 counties, each town is considered a school, eight years of compulsory education, all school-age children are enrolled in school, how many teachers are needed, according to the calculation of ten teachers in one grade, a total of 22,560 teachers are needed, even if calculated according to the minimum of 60 oceans per teacher, a total of 1.35 million is needed a month, plus the cost of students, even if it is halved, this is already an astonishing expense, plus the 16 million paid to us, ……。 ”

Liu Hangchen is worthy of being a top student of the Department of Finance of Peking University, and he has been in charge of the finance of the Yucheng area for a long time, and he knows all kinds of taxes in Yucheng well, and immediately roughly estimated the "loss" of Zhuang's Cultural Revolution.

After finishing speaking, Liu Hangchen shook his head, there is no need to say anything, this in and out, the annual loss will be more than 30 million, plus the cost of road construction, the cost of factories, the cost of mining, and the financial revenue of Sichuan Province will not fill this hole.

"I haven't thought about this problem, when he said that he wanted to engage in free education, I estimated to him in my heart that students alone would have to be at least two million a year, and he said to Zhang Lan that the funds have been allocated, which means that Chiang Kai-shek has been allocated, this must be a lie, so why did he tell a lie? This reminds me of another question, why did he so readily promise 16 million in the first place, and didn't bargain with us at all, in fact, I was ready to bargain with him, but he didn't, what does this mean? ”

"Hurry!" Fu Chang thought for a moment and said: "He can only be in a hurry, and he thinks that his funds are sufficient, sixteen million is nothing, he would rather spend money to buy time." ”

"What are you going to buy for?" Qiao Yifu asked rhetorically: "Tax cuts, free education?" He was crazy, and Chiang Kai-shek was not crazy. ”

"Maybe it's building roads and factories." Since getting the news, Pan Wenhua has been depressed, to say that he has done a good job as mayor of Chongqing, expanding the city, planning the road, and expanding the street from less than 10 feet to now being able to accommodate two large trucks in parallel. But now that He Guoguang has taken office, some people immediately compared him with him in the newspapers, and the conclusion was that he was more "rubbish".

"No matter what you do, Fu Gong, you should immediately order the rectification of taxes and implement tax reductions, and then Chiang Kai-shek complained, saying that He Guoguang beggars his neighbors, and the people of Sichuan have risen up to demand tax reductions, and the military spending on suppressing bandits is insufficient, and ask him to increase military spending." After Zhang Sike finished talking about the countermeasures, he explained his reasons: "Tax reduction is necessary now, otherwise we will not be able to explain to the elders of Sichuan, and the reputation of the Duke will be greatly damaged." ”

Zhang Sike was Liu Xiang's chief strategist, and his opinions had always been valued by Liu Xiang, so Liu Xiang sent a telegram to Chiang Kai-shek's Nanchang camp, but Chiang Kai-shek was no longer in Nanchang.

"Niang Xipi," another angry scolding came from the room in the resting house, the owner of this small courtyard was losing his temper again, after returning from Nanchang, he lost his temper more frequently, and the guards in the garden began to sympathize with the high-ranking officials in the room again.

"The chairman of the committee doesn't have to care too much, although Zhuang Wenge's move is reckless, the central government has no advantages and disadvantages, at least it can win the hearts of the people in Sichuan." Yang Yongtai persuaded.

"I mean Liu Xiang, this is simply taking advantage of the fire." Chiang Kai-shek's face turned red with anger.

In his opinion, Zhuang Jihua's move was inevitably reckless, and the funds required were very huge, and the state could not implement it in the whole country at present, which would inevitably cause dissatisfaction in other places, and it would not be a good thing for the country.

Yang Yongtai also understood why Chiang Kai-shek said that Liu Xiang was taking advantage of the fire to rob. China in 1933 was more chaotic than China in 1932, with the Communist Party suppressed in the south, the Red Army in the west and Sichuan, and the situation in the north was even more sinister.

On New Year's Day in 1933, the Yue army that occupied Jinzhou launched an attack on Shanhaiguan, and after two days of resistance from the Northeast Army's He Zhu National Division, Shanhaiguan fell. At the end of January, more and more signs showed that the main force of the army turned to Rehe, Zhang Xueliang, who was in charge of the Beiping Military and Political Commission, frequently reported to Nanjing, and Chiang Kai-shek mobilized the Jin Army, the 29th Army of the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army and the Central Army to go north, but in this case, Tang Yulin, commander of the Rehe garrison and chairman of the provincial political axe, refused to allow other departments to enter Rehe, and the grievances of the previous civil war between the [***] departments also broke out at this moment.

Yan Xishan is cunning and cunning, and if he doesn't come to Ming, he only lets his troops stay still; The Northwest Han was much more straightforward, and Song Zheyuan directly refused to carry out the Xifengkou defense task at the operational meeting; The three divisions of the Central Army assembled on the Jinpu line, but there was no sign of moving north. The defense of Rehe was delayed in the intrigue of the Chinese political figures. At the beginning of February, the Yue army, which had obtained the flank support, began to launch a tentative attack on Rehe, and the Rehe War of Resistance began, and Chiang Kai-shek had to return to Nanjing from Nanchang.

Different from the indifference of the powerful factions in the military circles, in the face of the crisis in Rehe, a new round of anti-Japanese and salvation movements was set off in various parts of the country, and students in Pingjin and Tianjin were again preparing to petition in Nanjing; students marched in Shanghai, Shandong, and Wuhan every day, and various political parties held high the banner of resistance and national salvation; Chen Jitang of Guangdong and Li Zongren of Guangxi raised the banner of resistance and national salvation one after another, and even the [***] in the ravines and ravines of Jiangxi Province shouted armed defense of Soviet Russia while holding high the banner of resistance against Chiang.

"Yucheng's funds come from themselves, and the central government has not allocated a penny," Chiang Kai-shek explained with some irritation: "I don't care what they want to do, the question now is that Liu Xiang wants money, where does this money come from?" ”

Chiang Kai-shek thought to himself that the money was Zhuang Jihua's own, how do you ask me to manage it, if I really have to manage it, the money will be gone, and no matter what, the money is used in Sichuan, which is beneficial to the country and the city.

Yang Yongtai was shocked, the central government didn't allocate a penny, Yucheng's own, Yucheng has so much tax? But Yang Yongtai did not express his doubts, he knew that if Chiang Kai-shek did not tell him, it would be useless to ask.

"Since Yucheng has such a large amount of funds, can you let them provide this military expense?" Yang Yongtai said very skillfully.

Chiang Kai-shek's calm face, Yang Yongtai's proposal made him excited, the last time Zhuang Jihua donated 100 million oceans, it can play a big role, in addition to the relief of common coastal victims, there is also relief for Shanghai refugees, and another 20 million is used for the current suppression of bandits, but in this way, the country's finances are still stretched. Last year, Song Ziwen promised the industrial and commercial circles of Jiangsu and Zhejiang not to issue treasury bonds for four years, but now it has been less than a year.

But Chiang Kai-shek couldn't say it, he couldn't ask Zhuang Jihua for money, he couldn't say that the principal had no money, you give me another 100 million, he couldn't open this mouth.

Yang Yongtai was observing Chiang Kai-shek's demeanor after making his suggestion, and when he saw that Chiang Kai-shek's expression had only eased slightly, he frowned again, and then knew his thoughts, so he added: "The chairman of the committee can issue an edict to allocate 2 million from the funds of the Southwest Development Task Force to Liu Xiang as military expenses for suppressing bandits. ”

"But what if he doesn't give it?" Chiang Kai-shek thought for a long time and couldn't help but ask.

Although Chiang Kai-shek didn't say who he was, everyone knew that this could only be Zhuang Jihua. Yang Yongtai tried his best to hide his surprise, and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Zhuang Wenge is a student of the chairman, as long as the commission gives him a clear explanation, it is impossible for him not to share his worries for the commissioner." ”

Although Yang Yongtai said this, the doubts in his heart became bigger and bigger, and he had great doubts about the source of funds developed by the southwest, and the taxes of Yucheng were also the state's money, so how could he say that he would not give it? Moreover, it was directly ordered by the chairman.

"It's better for the central government to pay for this." Chiang Kai-shek felt that it was still inappropriate after thinking about it, if Zhuang Jihua really disobeyed, he really couldn't do anything about him. Not to mention his strong financial strength and friendships within the Huangpu department, but also his relationship with US President Roosevelt and German Chancellor Hitler, he cannot easily move him. The relationship with Roosevelt was told to him by Zhuang Jihua, and the ambassador to the United States also reported that Roosevelt had personally confirmed that Zhuang Jihua was his friend, and when the ambassador to Germany visited the new Chancellor Hitler, the first thing Hitler said was that he once had a Chinese friend named Zhuang Jihua.

"Does the chairman want to take money from the German mechanic?" Yang Yongtai asked, after receiving an affirmative expression, he said: "No, the German armament division is an important component step of the national armament rectification plan, and this fund cannot be moved, so it is better to send a telegram to He Guoguang in my name, asking him to ask Zhuang if the Cultural Revolution can allocate such a sum of money from the funds of the Southwest Development Task Force." ”

Yang Yongtai deserves to be called a think tank, and he actually came up with such a way to get the best of both worlds in an instant, and Chiang Kai-shek finally nodded with satisfaction.
