Chapter 142: Fooling Old Yuan

After Qiao Yu figured out the key, he couldn't help but give his dad a thumbs up: "Dad, your old idea is too high, I think you might as well go out of the mountain to consult the government affairs for the child, I also have a backbone!" ”

"I'm old, Xu Donghai sent me a telegram a few days ago, wanting me to work in Yanjing, I can be regarded as a father and a son, but I refused, now the old man is thinking about teasing his grandson, you kid hurry up and marry a daughter-in-law, let me hold my grandson, don't always fool around outside, Wanqing's girl is good!"

After the old man finished explaining, he left directly, Qiao Yu thought that the relationship between himself and Xue Yanniang was very secret, but he didn't expect to be discovered by his father, but after thinking about it, what if he found out, the old man didn't necessarily interfere too much with himself in the matter of children's affection, but his father pointed out a clear way for himself.

Not long ago, in Syria, the Jiang family actually helped the Dian army and instructed the Syrian government to almost lose its position, this kind of thing must never happen again, and it can also greatly promote the prosperity of commerce, and at the same time, it can also train the army, and can take the opportunity to rectify the locality, gain the support of the people, and expand the authority of the political axe, and the benefits are innumerable.

After thinking through the key, Qiao Yu immediately asked Zhu Qinglan and Yang Shukan to jointly formulate a plan to eliminate local banditry and strengthen the public security work in Sichuan, Qiao Yu found a way to solve the problem, and at this time, Sun Wen was officially dismissed in the Nanjing Senate, and the temporary Senate in Nanjing was also moved to Yanjing, but Nanjing also gathered more than 100,000 so-called revolutionary troops at this time, and now the north and the south are unified, these troops must also be disbanded, and the matter is extremely cumbersome, and the old Yuan Siliang repeatedly decided to appoint Tao Chengzhang to stay in Nanjing, Responsible for the control of the Southern Army, responsible for the demobilization work.

According to the original history, the position left behind in Nanjing was handed over to Huang Xing, but at this time Lao Yuan had a better choice, that is, Tao Chengzhang, after Lao Yuan's observation, Tao Chengzhang's ability to do things was obviously above Huang Xing, and many governors in the south supported Tao Chengzhang, so it was better for him to preside over Nanjing, and the most important thing was that Tao Chengzhang advocated cutting the domain, which was extremely beneficial to Lao Yuan.

Of course, Lao Yuan didn't want outsiders to think that he kicked Sun Wen and Huang Xing away, so he also sent several telegrams to the two people in a row, hoping that the two of them could go to Yanjing to discuss the country's affairs, and Sun Wen was not willing to quit politics just like that, so he happily went north.

However, after Lao Yuan took over the south, he suddenly had a headache, Sun Wen not only left him a nasty temporary contract, but also left him hundreds of thousands of chaotic soldiers, and the military salary alone was like Mount Tai on Lao Yuan's shoulders.

Originally, after Sun Wen became the president of the Nanjing Provisional Political Axe, he gathered troops everywhere and vowed to go on the Northern Expedition, Sun Wen actually had an abacus in his heart, he first negotiated peace with Lao Yuan to gain time, and at the same time tried his best to borrow from abroad, wanting to quickly arm a strong army by relying on the loan, but the bad thing is that no foreign power was willing to lend him money except for Yueben.

Sun Wen and Yue Ben talked about three loans, namely Su Lu Loan, China Merchants Loan and Han Yeping Loan, China Merchants is the steamship China Merchants established by Li Hongzhang, and Su Lu Loan is to use the Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Railway Right of Way as collateral in exchange for Yue Ben's three million loans, in addition to the success of Su Lu's loan, Han Yeping's loan set off a monstrous wave because of Qiao Yu's participation, and even almost drove Sun Wen off the presidential throne, and the shareholders of China Merchants also followed suit and resolutely resisted the China Merchants loan.

In this way, Nanjing's temporary political axe only got a few million, and these could not even pay the army money, Sun Wen had no choice but to completely hand over the throne of the president, but the mess fell into the hands of Lao Yuan, at this time Lao Yuan invited Sun Wen and Huang Xing to Yanjing, in fact, he wanted them to be grateful to Dade and take them in by the way.

The old man carried the black pot for you, but the old man is generous, not only does he blame you, but he also reuses it, don't you still return to your heart, but Lao Yuan obviously miscalculated, Sun Wen will not be grateful to you!

Sun Wen and Huang Xing arrived in Yanjing City, people from all walks of life came to greet him, Sun Wen had a lot of controversy, but many people still regarded him as a revolutionary leader who took the initiative to give up the presidential throne, especially after he stepped down, his reputation was better than before, so tens of thousands of people gathered at Yanjing Railway Station to welcome Sun Wen and Huang Xing.

Sun Wen and Huang Xing were settled in Xingyuan, the two of them just settled down, they went to visit Lao Yuan, at this time Lao Yuan personally greeted the two in front of the presidential residence, as soon as they saw Lao Yuan, he was full of smiles, holding Sun Wen with one hand and Huang Xing with the other.

"The two gentlemen were able to come to Yanjing, Yuan is really relieved, now that the Republic of China has been created, the two are revolutionary leaders, and they have to rely on the two to give advice to the country!" When Sun Wen saw Lao Yuan so polite, he also frequently said good things.

The three of them joined hands and went to the guest room, and Yuan Shikai said again: "The second duke is highly respected, Yuan intends to hire the second duke as a senior adviser to help Yuan staff and government affairs, if you can get the help of the second duke, this major event in the world will become most of the world!" ”

As soon as Sun Wen heard this, his heart suddenly churned, I am a person who has been the president, and you Lao Yuan are on an equal footing, why should I be a consultant to you, it is really shameless, Sun Wen was angry in his heart, but it was not easy to bring it out, he just smiled and said: "The president is a politician in my country, and his knowledge is far higher than that of Wen, and I am not good at participating in major military and political affairs, but I have a little private opinion, politics belongs to the public, industry belongs to the literature, if the public can serve as the president for ten years, train 1 million soldiers, and run the railway, extend 200,000 miles, At that time, who will dare to underestimate China, and China has its own prosperity and strength, what does the public think? ”

As soon as Lao Yuan heard Sun Wen's words, a nameless fire suddenly rose to his heart, and he naturally heard the meaning of Sun Wen's words, what does it mean to be the president for ten years, okay! You Sun Wen is now forced to give up the presidency to me, but you haven't given up yet, let the old man serve for ten years, and then there will be an election, you Sun Wen is younger than me, is it time for you to be president!

Sun Wen doesn't know what to do, the old man won't give up the throne, and you don't want to sit on it! But what kind of city government Lao Yuan is, where will it be revealed, just smiled: "Mr. Sun's knowledge is really clever, but the old man has trained soldiers in a small station, and knows the difficulty, how can a million male soldiers be trained in one or two sentences, and the construction of the railway is more expensive, and now the financial embarrassment, and you have to rely on borrowing money, where did you get the money to build the railway, and the people are even more difficult, do you still want to exploit the people?" ”

Sun Wen didn't seem to care, and a look of pride appeared on his face: "I'm afraid that there is no ambition in this world, with ambition, there is always a solution, how many people have been trapped by the word silver money throughout the ages, but in my opinion, money is just a code, thirst can't drink, hunger can't eat, where does it come from so much magic, now most countries in the world use paper money, only our country still uses silver money, according to my opinion, go to silver money, the national paper money, as long as the banknote has credit, then the banknote is silver, The political axe controls the power to print money, the political axe will not be poor, the people will not be poor, and outsiders will not be able to embarrass us, soldiers can also be trained, and railways can also be repaired, isn't it a great pleasure! ”
