Qiao Yu now knows why Sun Wen will inevitably part ways with whoever he cooperates with later, and even the situation of swords and guns facing each other, it has become a strange thing to get along with them with the artillery party, who can really support the empty checks, I'm afraid that even foreigners can't believe it, so he is willing to support Yuan Shikai, although Lao Yuan will try his best to lower the conditions, but at least it is reliable.

Several guards expelled Wang Jingwei from the Shuai Mansion, Qiao Yu hurriedly wrote down all the things about Wang Jingwei's visit, and even the conversation was word-for-word, and sent it to Lao Yuan, there is no doubt that Qiao Yu is showing his attitude, after Lao Yuan received the telegram, he looked at it carefully.

From this telegram, Lao Yuan read at least three meanings, Sun Wen's party members are already preparing to arm against themselves, and they are recruiting helpers everywhere, the second layer is that Qiao Yu has decided to support himself, selling Sun Wen to himself is to vote for his name, and the hidden third meaning is to demonstrate to Lao Yuan for benefits, Sun Wen promised the king of the southwest, don't you Lao Yuan take out some benefits, if you don't feel easy, I may be able to help Sun Wen!

At this time, Lao Yuan received a telegram, which was sent by Sun Wen, in which Sun Wen unceremoniously blamed Lao Yuan as the murderer of Song Jiaoren, and at the same time asked Lao Yuan to take the blame and resign.

Lao Yuan called Yang Du over, and immediately asked Yang Du to draft a telegram to remove Song Wen from the post of general office of the railway, and then Lao Yuan dismissed Zhao Bingjun from his post and appointed Duan Qirui as the prime minister of the cabinet.

Zhao Bingjun had no choice but to tell the truth, it turned out that Ying Guixin contacted Zhao Bingjun through Hong Shuzu, and wanted to help Zhao Bingjun kill the eye-catching Song Jiaoren, Zhao Bingjun thought this was a good thing, so he ordered Hong Shuzu to also communicate with Zhao Bingjun, but Zhao Bingjun did not finally decide to use Ying Guixin to kill people, who knew that at this time he got the assassination of Song Jiaoren.

Asked here Lao Yuan Don't mention how angry he is, he has already figured it out, what Zhao Bingjun said is true, then he was designed by others, and now he has found Hong Shuzu's letter, for himself, it is loess mud falling into the crotch of his pants, it is not but, no matter what he says, no one can believe it, and what is even more troublesome is that the current situation in the country cannot be traced back to the real culprit.

A feeling of being fooled arose, Lao Yuan was extremely depressed, and he wanted to tear Zhao Bingjun apart, but Zhao Bingjun did not arrange to kill Song Jiaoren, and handing him over would not only be unclear to himself, but would also seriously weaken Lao Yuan's prestige, who would follow you if he couldn't even protect his henchmen.

Of course, Lao Yuan no longer regards Zhao Bingjun as a confidant, but you can't reverse the views of the whole world, Lao Yuan immediately dismissed Zhao Bingjun as the prime minister of the cabinet, and appointed the old subordinate Duan Qirui, since the death of Tao Chengzhang and Song Jiaoren, Lao Yuan has given up the idea of taking the south for his own use, and only by virtue of the war is a way to completely crush the forces in the south and unify the country in one fell swoop.

Although Lao Yuan is ambitious, but the funds in his hands are limited, he can only look forward to the success of the loan of the five countries, he has arranged for the Minister of Finance Zhou Xuexi to negotiate with the bank group, Zhou Xuexi is the same name as Zhang Jian, the God of Wealth, there may be some ways to do business, but it is more difficult to negotiate with foreigners, and the new Prime Minister Duan Qirui is a martial artist, and he is not very good at this kind of negotiation, so he can only be anxious.

In desperation, Foreign Minister Lu Zhengxiang was brought in, and jointly negotiated with the bank group, and finally negotiated a large loan for the aftermath, with a total loan of 25 million pounds, an annual interest rate of 5%, and a term of 47 years; The bonds were sold at a 9% discount, net of 6% commissions, with a net income of £21 million.

It seems to be a lot of money, but this loan has to be specified, and at the same time, it has to deduct the Gengzi indemnity and the foreign debts due, the cost of demobilizing the army from friends, plus administrative costs, and Lao Yuan can dispose of 7.6 million pounds.

The collateral is the salt tax, the customs has been directly under the central financial tax of Henan, Shandong, and Jiangsu provinces, and there are other additional conditions attached to this loan agreement, such as China is not allowed to lend to other countries without the permission of the banking group, and foreigners must participate in the collection of salt tax, which can be said to be a violation of China's sovereignty, but Lao Yuan can no longer care about it, and nodded and agreed to the conditions.

However, this big loan for the aftermath has not yet reached Lao Yuan's hands, but it has caused greater trouble, and the members of the Senate and the House of Representatives have opposed it, and the world has become even more disturbed for a while.

"This is electrified, that is electrified, what is the value of this electrification!"

"Before the army moves, public opinion goes first, don't the people always like to compete for a division to be famous!" Qiao Yu said with a smile, but Qiao Cheng shook his head at this time: "It's all a bunch of things that don't do business, don't learn from them, although I don't understand politics, but I know that if you come to this point, the people are afraid that they will abandon you!" ”

"The lesson of the eldest brother is that the key is to improve the lives of the people, so that everyone has more and more hope!"

Qiao Cheng did not join the political axe because of suspicion, but most of the Qiao family's business depended on him to take care of it, and Qiao Cheng was also busy, but this time Ya'an built a snowy cannery, Qiao Yu had to come to check it out in person, and Qiao Cheng had to accompany the third child.

Ya'an, the starting point of the Ancient Tea Horse Road, has a very important geographical location and is also very prosperous in commerce, Qiao Yu chose here to set up a canning factory, mainly processing all kinds of beef and mutton, making canned military food for the Sichuan army.

"The third child, although it is said that this food is a soldier, and the army must be eaten well, but you also know that there is no need to trouble this kind of trivial matter!"

"Big brother, don't you see the role of this small cannery, he is a fulcrum for me to pry the entire Tibetan Province!"

"Can it be so useful? Tell me about it! ”

"Big brother, the herdsmen in Tibetan Province are the mainstay, there is no shortage of meat, and there is a lot of redundancy, but once this canning factory is put into production, it will definitely need a lot of fresh meat, and the price of meat will also rise rapidly, and the herdsmen's livestock will be sent over, and more and more herdsmen will make money from the cannery, do you say they will still think about splitting, when the time comes, I am afraid that whoever wants to separate from China, the herdsmen will not agree, this is not cutting off their financial route!"

Qiao Cheng listened to Qiao Yu's explanation, and gradually understood the key, he is often in contact with business, and he sees this bond of interests very clearly, this is more effective than any righteousness, in the end, ordinary people want to be fed and clothed, not to mention that the value of this small canned food is really difficult to calculate.

"Big brother, in addition, there is a more important role, presumably the big brother is very clear about the power of capital, after the establishment of this factory, the herdsmen will inevitably be involved in the industrial mode of production, this mode of production will undoubtedly shake the original social structure of Tibetan Province, I am afraid that it will be effortless to abolish serfdom for a long time!"
