Chapter 325: The Big Cake (I)
Fang Jianxiong waved his hand and said, "Don't be courteous, isn't it just scraping more than five million yuan?" You keep the money and go back and find a deal to use it for. It's not easy for you all these years, and you've never put silver in your pocket, I know that. ”
Fang Lang showed a grateful expression, and was frightened back by Fang Jianxiong's glare, and hurriedly stood up straight and said, "Dare to disobey your life." ”
Before the deal with Soviet Russia began, Kolchak's representative Petrov and his entourage of more than ten people arrived in Harbin first. At this time, the Arctic Ocean had not yet frozen, and Petrov was able to sail from the British-controlled North Sea, pass through the Arctic Ocean to Vladivostok, and then go ashore and take a train from Harbin.
Kolchak was a nationalist who did not think much of the Republic of China, and never thought that his regime would give up the benefits that Russia had gained from the Qing Dynasty. Seeing that winter is approaching soon, the White Army is also short of arms and military supplies, and there are not many sellers who can provide these things, and China, which has mastered the Trans-Siberian Railway, is undoubtedly the best seller. Of course, it can also be purchased from Japan, but it will be too difficult to take the Trans-Siberian Railway. It's not impossible to take the sea route, the problem is that winter is coming.
The White Army is not having a good time this winter, there is a shortage of food and clothing during the Tsarist period, and the aid from Europe and the United States is actually not much, and some aid is still charged, and the price is not cheap. As a result, China became the only option.
When the ship arrived in Tianjin, Petrov did not see the expected warm welcome, the Chinese did not have a good impression of Lao Maozi, and Tang Shaoyi, the mayor of Tianjin, who had returned to the mountain, also hated Lao Maozi. The person who received Petrov and his entourage on the pier was nothing more than Chen Zheng, a director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Chen is Sun Baoqi's man, and the new cabinet is expected to become a deputy minister.
Chen Zhen also didn't like Lao Maozi, but this was a task and he had to come. Chen Zheng, who was standing on the pier, had a cold attitude, and simply shook hands with Petrov. So he sent people to the car, and after finding a hotel to settle down, he came to Tang Shaoyi's office.
Tang Shaoyi's eyes are relatively high, and there are really not many people who can enter his eyes. This time, he was able to serve as the mayor of Tianjin, which was recommended by Sun Baoqi. If he is an ordinary provincial governor, he can't be either, because he has to pass the provincial council. The four municipalities directly under the central government, Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Chongqing, are somewhat inertial thinking. Because it is directly under the cabinet, it is selected by the cabinet in terms of the chief. Tang Shaoyi would rather not be an oxtail for the head of the chicken, and he was unwilling to break off his career, so he took the road to get this position.
Both of them can be regarded as Sun Baoqi is a person, so it was polite to meet. This time for Petrov's visit to China. Fang Jianxiong meant that they should not be allowed to go to Beijing, and if there was any deal, Tianjin would be completed. The White Russian government is a sure loser, and there is no need to be polite to them. This matter will be handed over to Tang Shaoyi and Chen Zheng to operate, and when the specific transaction is made, the Military Intelligence Bureau will come forward to provide the goods.
Petrov came to China, and there was one more mission. It is hoped that the White Russian government will be recognized by the Republic of China and discuss the question of the ownership of the Far East after the Russian civil war. It's a pity that as soon as I got ashore, I was given a cold reception.
"Ren Xian (Chen Zhengzi), have all the people in Belarus settled down?" Tang Shaoyi took out a cigar. Handed it to Chen Zheng, and after the two of them lit one each, Chen Zheng smiled bitterly: "Mr. Shaochuan, this errand is not interesting. You and I just came forward to receive it. ”
Tang Shaoyi nodded and said, "This is a business of the Military Intelligence Bureau, so don't worry about it." The key is not to make diplomatic concessions. You should understand Fu Shuai's character, if you don't think about him, it will be difficult to go further. ”
The Republican Party, as the ruling party, has no intention of purging after taking power. In Fang Jianxiong's words, China is not too talented, but too few. As long as they are willing to abide by the rules, those who have the ability can come out and do things for the government.
In the past five years, this idea has been well implemented, which also makes it possible for Tang Shaoyi, a talent from the old Beiyang period, to come out again. Chen Zheng, a traitor who has been in the arms of the Japanese for 38 years in parallel history, has no such opportunity in this time and space. On the contrary, with the successive victories of the militia in foreign wars, the morale of the people has risen sharply, and they have been able to speak strongly in their attitude towards the outside world.
People's mentality is very delicate, and Chen Zheng, as a member of Sun Baoqi's family, hopes to win the position of deputy foreign minister in the new cabinet, and this reception of the Belarusian representative is an opportunity to show his respect. And this time there is a good deal, Chen Zheng is still very tempted.
Tang Shaoyi was also very tempted, but he knew that it was powerful, and considering that he was on the same line as Chen Zheng, he reminded him.
"It's not like there's no way, we can have a good relationship with the people from the Military Intelligence Agency." Chen Zheng is not giving up, after all, his backer is Sun Baoqi, who is hard enough.
Tang Shaoyi sighed and said, "That guy Zhao Yi is a living Hades, if you can't have anything to do with him, don't have anything to do with him." A person like him has only one master in his heart, and anyone who wants to divide the interests of his master may be used as a stumbling block by him. ”
"What the above means, hang these White Russians first, I'll go back to Beijing first, and I'll hand it over to Mr. Shaochuan here." Chen Zheng stood up as he spoke, Tang Shaoyi smiled and said nothing, watching him leave with confidence, and there was a faint disdain in his heart. Anyway, he is considered to have done his best, and whether Chen Zheng listens or not is another matter.
Petrov and his entourage stayed in a hostel in Tianjin, and they were followed every day and were not restrained. The delay in the absence of the people in the government made Petrov anxious. Although the White Russian government received assistance from the Entente and 60,000 or 70,000 soldiers of the Czech Legion also stayed behind to help fight the war, there was still a big gap in arms and materials. If this problem is not solved in time, the offensive plan for next spring will be greatly affected. The Tsarist government suffered huge losses in the course of the European war, and it was difficult to fill the gap in artillery, and whether the Chinese were willing to sell artillery was a matter of life and death.
After Chen Zheng returned to Beijing, he reported to Sun Baoqi about the reception of the Belarusian delegation, and the cold treatment was Sun Baoqi's meaning, and Chen Zheng did a good job at one point, and Sun Baoqi was also very satisfied. Seeing the smile on Sun Baoqi's face, Chen Zheng said: "President, the Belarusian delegation came to China this time to obtain the support of the Republic of China government and carry out trade. I think that this matter should not be dealt with by others. ”
When Sun Baoqi heard this, his face couldn't help but sink slightly, and Chen Zheng hurriedly said when he saw this: "The president has been in power for ten years, and if he doesn't think about himself, he should also plan for his children." In this trade with Russia, the military intelligence force can be asked to consider relevant enterprises as appropriate. ”
Sun Baoqi is still very honest as an official, of course, it is relative, otherwise where would he have raised so many wives and 24 children. In the position of the president, Sun Baoqi's monthly salary of 30,000 yuan is not counted, and the annual special expenses are 200,000 yuan, so he can't spend much. Now I look at this lot of money, but in fact, it is not much to distribute to each child. Chen Zheng seized this gap, and really moved Sun Baoqi, moved to impress, and Sun's determination was still difficult to make. Sun Baoqi can have today, thanks to Fang Jianxiong's swords and guns. This understanding is very clear to him, unlike some people, who have a moment of momentum and tail to the sky.
"I'm afraid it's inappropriate." Sun Baoqi still couldn't make up his mind, and Chen Zheng saw that he was moved, so he persuaded: "President, the students think that Sheng Enyi, the son-in-law of the eldest lady, can come forward and set up a material company." Then recommend it to the Military Intelligence Agency, this little face, the Military Intelligence Bureau still has to sell. ”
Sun Baoqi was moved, and with a sigh, Chen Zheng took the opportunity to continue: "This company adopts a shareholder system, and all senior brothers and brothers can have shares, which are operated by Enyi, and others sit on the ground to share dividends." ”
Sun Baoqi's eldest daughter married Sheng Enyi, the fourth elder of Sheng Xuanhuai's family, and this Sheng Laosi is undoubtedly a super loser. However, Sheng Xuanhuai's family has a big career, and it is true that he can lose for more than ten or twenty years. Sun Baoqi certainly knows something about things in his family. The eldest daughter went home several times to complain, and what she said was that Sheng Laosi was spending all day and drinking outside.
Sheng Xuanhuai, who was in parallel history, spent a huge amount of 550,000 taels to try to recover the property because of the huge loss of the revolutionary director's property, but most of them failed, and he died within a few years after being anxious. At this time and space, because of Sun Baoqi's relationship, Sheng Xuanhuai's recycling industry is quite smooth, and the largest of them, Han Yeping, has also been converted into shares of Eurasia Iron and Steel Group. The mood has changed, and Sheng Xuanhuai has lived a long time and space, at least for now.
Chen Zheng's meaning is to make a little industry for Sun Baoqi's children, and they will be able to live a good life with dividends in the future. Of course, Chen Zhen's selfishness here is not small, and in general, he still hopes to take a little bit by the way, Lao Maozi doesn't take a bite of this piece of fat, and he is very unhappy.
"I see, you can let me think about it." Sun Baoqi sent Chen Zheng away, wondering in his heart what impact this matter would have on Fang Jianxiong's side. He has never seen such a thing as abusing power for personal gain, and he even disdains it. As he got older, Chen Zheng pointed out that his children's future life was not arranged, which really made Sun Baoqi moved.
After pondering again and again, Sun Baoqi called the big secretary Gu Weijun and asked him to prepare the car and set off. Gu Weijun married Tang Shaoyi's daughter Tang Baoyue, and the funny thing is that the two got married on the same day and in the same place, Tang Shaoyi remarried, and things were done together. Therefore, these romantic characters in the Republic of China have done a lot of bastard things that seem to be very unreliable.
Sun Baoqi came directly to Fang Jianxiong, thinking in his heart that he would still inform him of this matter. If you directly contact the Military Intelligence Bureau and accommodate you, things will not be impossible, but it will definitely cause problems in the relationship between master and apprentice.
Judging from the process, Sun Baoqi relied on Fang Jianxiong, not Fang Jianxiong relied on Sun Baoqi. In fact, in the process of Fang Jianxiong's growth, Sun Baoqi did not contribute much. However, after Sun arrived in Wuhan, he strongly supported the Fang family and had a master-apprentice relationship, so he was able to get to this day.
