Chapter 96: Chen Bui's gentle push

Chiang Kai-shek's dissatisfaction with Kong Xiangxi reached its peak after receiving Kong Xiangxi's handwritten letter.

He originally thought that Kong Xiangxi was his brother-in-law, and he had been very obedient for more than ten years, even if there was a little bit of corruption, it should be within the controllable range. Although things like Seven Star Company are related to it, it is mainly because of the lax governance of the family, thinking of Kong Xiangxi's always soft personality and doting on his children, which should be expected. Just lose his temper and rectify it again, Kong Xiangxi should repent immediately, even if he doesn't repent, he will give himself a passable explanation. But he didn't expect that although Kong Xiangxi admitted his mistake to him in the letter, he didn't say a word about what he specifically admitted his mistake. That's not all, between the lines, he keeps accusing some people of wanting to separate the relationship between the two parties, telling him not to listen to the gossip of those "outsiders". Even, Kong Xiangxi actually reversed black and white in the letter, explaining his greed for national funds as something "afraid of falling into the hands of outsiders"...... What does it mean to fall into the hands of outsiders? Thinking that he often felt headaches because of insufficient military spending, Lao Jiang couldn't help but get angry. And Kong Xiangxi is still so hard-mouthed and so unrepentant, what else can he do?

"Mediocre people mislead the country, and they are so greedy!"

I really wanted to withdraw Kong Xiangxi, but the words went around in his mouth a few times, and Chiang Kai-shek still didn't say it after all. Chen Bui is not an outsider, but he is still not as close as Kong Xiangxi in comparison, and Kong Xiangxi is not able to withdraw if he says that he can withdraw. No matter how bastard, that's an executive dean. There are many party members up and down.

"Chairman, Dean Kong is shirking his responsibilities." Chen Bui picked up Kong Xiangxi's letter from the ground, and glanced at it a few times by the way, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly. They are about to become rats crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats, but they still don't admit it? When did this Kong Xiangxi become so stupid? But then again. Since someone is not on the road himself, there is no reason why he should not push it, anyway, he has long seen that the fat man is not pleasing to the eye:

He plucked himself completely, but forgot that there was no such thing as a perfect person in this world...... According to the letter, it has been more than 10 years since he became the governor of the central bank, and he has not done anything wrong. Chairman of the committee, Chen didn't know that our Dean Kong was a perfect person. ”

"Perfect? What kind of perfect man is he? Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but snort coldly again.

"That's right. Some time ago, you seem to have mentioned that Hu Shizhi exchanged 20 million US dollars from Citibank? Chen Bui suddenly asked again.

"Is there such a thing, I mentioned it to you?" Chiang Kai-shek was stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically.

"I mentioned it." Chen Bretton pondered for a moment, "But I met Chen Gengya from the Senate a few days ago. He told me that a few young people from the AFT had told him. This money is already millions less. ”

"What?" Chiang Kai-shek was shocked: "Is there really such a thing? ”

"Don't dare to lie. You can also call Chen Gungya to confront you. Chen Bui said.

"Niang Xipi—"

Chiang Kai-shek finally broke out completely. Trembling, he sent people to the shipwreck treasure that was quietly unveiled in the waters of Cuba. He regarded it as a huge amount of money that was extremely important to support the great cause of the war, and he had already been poached millions of dollars before he used it? The National Treasury Bureau, which is managed by Lao Kong, wants to take away such a large amount of money from the National Treasury Bureau, even if it is Lu Xian, the director of the National Treasury Bureau. It is simply impossible without the consent of Lao Kong. However, Kong Xiangxi allocated millions of dollars of special funds for the Anti-Japanese War, and he didn't know about it? Lu Xian is Lao Kong's person. What's wrong with this, do you still need to ask?

"Call Ziwen, I want to see him."

Without Zhang Butcher, you don't necessarily have to eat pigs with hair. Lao Jiang didn't know the hardships of Kong Xiangxi, and he didn't know that once Lao Kong admitted his many "mistakes", the situation he faced might be even worse than now, he only knew that Kong Xiangxi not only didn't give him a face, but also kept making trouble for him. Although obedient and easy to use, it is a mud that cannot be strengthened. In that case, don't read him and don't talk about old feelings.

"Yes."

Song Ziwen. Chiang Kai-shek's brother-in-law, not very obedient, but also better than others, the most important thing is trustworthy, and he can also appease the emotions of Chiang's wife Song Meiling. Chen Bui was not surprised by this candidate. The outside world has long guessed that once Kong Xiangxi steps down, who will succeed him. And there is no doubt that Song Ziwen is the number one candidate.

"Call Yu Hongjun again."

"Minister Yu?"

Finance Minister Yu Hongjun. Chen Bui's heart became more and more happy. It seems that Lao Jiang is planning to give Kong Xiangxi a chance this time. Song Ziwen went to replace Kong Xiangxi's position as the premier, and he seized the administrative power; Yu Hongjun, that is to seize Kong Xiangxi's financial power.

********************************************

"Royal Shell?"

"It seems that this man knows a lot about the origin of Shell."

Lao Jiang was furious because someone had stolen the money, but just as he was worried about the safety of the banknotes he had managed to get from the United States, a discussion was also beginning in the British Consulate in Chongqing's Consular Lane. The British ambassador to China, Ahird, who was inexplicably "driven" to Shanghai by Qin Wei and others. Clarke. Sir Carr was also discussing with the Consul General in Chongqing, Colley, about the sudden arrival of the Chinese soldier.

"Oil, Indonesia's oil ......" Karl smacked his lips: "Colley, do you know what the production of Indonesian oil is like now?" ”

"You're asking the right person, it just so happens that I still know a little bit, of course, not much." Currie smiled, "As far as I know, last year, Indonesia's total crude oil production should have reached 8 million tons. Very remarkable numbers. ”

"Now the Chinese want to discuss this with us. It seems that they feel that the production of 8 million tons is a little less. Karl laughed.

"It's not like someone sent by Chiang Kai-shek's government, if it's that guy, he should be an official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. But now it's a soldier. Collie said.

"By the way, who did the GI say he represented?" Carl asked.

"Qin Wei, a guy who has been spreading all walks of life in Chongqing recently, I heard that he is still a professor." Collie said.

"Professor? A scholar? Carl was visibly surprised. He also thought that it would be an official, or at least a big businessman, who would dare to go to the British embassy to discuss oil production, but he never expected it to be a scholar.

"Surprised, isn't it? You've been in Shanghai all this time, and you shouldn't have any idea that this guy suddenly came out of nowhere. I must admit it, though. This guy is indeed a scholar, and a very amazing scholar, who has created a method that allows Chinese to master the reading of Chinese characters in a very short period of time, called Hanyu Pinyin. This method can be taught from a very young age, even before the children go to school. It is rumored that as long as there is a Chinese pinyin mark, a primary school student can read China's most complex, most difficult to understand, and most famous masterpiece from beginning to end. Read it word for word. Collie said.

"So powerful? He's a master of language? Carl was shocked again. Chinese is difficult to learn, and it can be ranked as one of the most difficult languages to learn in the world. But now someone has invented a very simple way to learn...... What is language used for? Isn't that what I mean? In his experience of learning Chinese, Chinese is difficult at the beginning, but as long as he can speak it, he can pronounce it. The next step will be a hundred times easier. Whereas, English is the complete opposite, and it is easy to get started. The most basic is only 26 letters. Ordinary conversations are simple, but if you want to study seriously, the effort is not trivial. The 26-letter arrangement is a horrible amount of words, and the meaning of each word has to be relearned, and it is an impossible task to learn all the English words in one person.

"Personally, I think he's a master. But as far as I know, his professorship is only part-time, and his real position is that of the director of a military asylum. Collie shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

"Military asylum?" Karl was surprised again.

"Yes. A place to contain the remnants of the defeated army. Curley continued.

"That's not a good job."

"Yes, but that Professor Qin seems to be very happy to stay there. Oh, I almost forgot, I also heard that he had a good relationship with Chiang Kai-shek, and some time ago, many newspapers in Chongqing reported that he had secured a Japanese female spy at Chiang Kai-shek's hands......"

"Japanese female spy? God, are you talking about Nanzao Yunzi? Carl almost jumped. Nan made clouds! It was a name he knew all too well. It was this woman who almost made him Lao Chiang's substitute for the dead, and was blown to pieces by the Japanese plane. But no matter how he protested afterwards, the Japanese didn't do anything about Nanzao Yunzi. And the British Empire he represented also implemented a policy of appeasement towards Japan for the sake of interests, so that his goal of revenge has never been achieved.

"That's right, it's Nanzao Yunzi." Collie also remembered what had happened to Karl and apologized: "I'm sorry that the situation in Chongqing was chaotic at that time, and the Chiang Kai-shek government had always been dissatisfied with our policy, so I didn't protest to them." ”

"It's okay, I understand." Carl rubbed his forehead, "And I remember, but I ...... when it happened Oh, I think I just read the newspaper......"

"Newspapers? Oh, damn it, I haven't read today's paper. Collie was stunned for a moment, "Any news?" ”

"The female spy had been shot by order of Chiang Kai-shek. Ha Luha, she deserves it. Carl suddenly laughed out loud.

"Shot? God, that's a great thing to be happy about. Collie was also happy, "I think we should celebrate." ”

"It really should be celebrated. But before that, we have to figure out what the 'language master' named Qin Wei wants to do. Carl paused, "I need his information, it would be better to be more detailed." ”

"Guaranteed to your satisfaction." Currie nodded in response, "But before we do that, should we inform Royal Shell?" You know, that guy didn't give us much time. ”

"The Chinese are already precarious. In that case, why do you care so much about them? And don't forget, I am the British Empire's Ambassador Plenipotentiary to China! So," Carl laughed, "this kind of request is not to be ignored. (To be continued......)
