，

It would take another month for the ship to sail to the United States, and during this month, Roosevelt and Tu Qianjun discussed the economic form of Manchuria the most. After entering Manchuria, Roosevelt discovered something unexpected.

First of all, the three eastern provinces do not prohibit private capital. But most of the large enterprises, such as mining, banking, smelting, chemical ...... and so on, all of which are operated by the capital of the three provincial governments themselves.

This seems to be different from traditional Anglo-American capitalism, but it is socialism but it exists and recognizes private capital. This economic pattern caught Roosevelt's attention, and during his visit, Roosevelt also asked some questions about the policy of the three eastern provinces.

Although Yan Zhengqing and others gave him some answers, after all, they were too busy and did not have much time to answer the governor. Tu Qianjun, as the commander-in-chief of the entire National Defense Force, was also very busy.

So Roosevelt did not bother them, but wrote down his own problems. And when Tu Qianjun and himself take a boat to the United States, they will make some answers together.

"First of all, I have one answer, Brother Ruici! The policies now practiced in Manchuria can be regarded as essentially a combination of state capitalism and private capital. Tu Qianjun explained to Roosevelt with a smile: "Perhaps, there is also some socialist flavor in this. There are even some ancient Chinese philosophical thoughts. ”

"You can see it as a hybrid, but overall it seems to work." Tu Qianjun paused, smiled at Roosevelt, and said, "At least the people under my rule are not hungry, and they are not panicked because of the disaster. Their livelihood is secured, and the whole region is thriving. ”

What Tu Qianjun said Roosevelt nodded in agreement, in fact, he went to the reconstruction area of the disaster area and saw no soulless victims. More people are working hard to rebuild their homes on the relief distributed by the three provincial governments.

The civil service, which is composed of demobilized officials from the National Defense Force, local military cadres, and a number of Tokyo University students, is responsible for coordinating and rebuilding the work in the affected areas. At the same time, they are responsible for law and order, the distribution of relief and reporting to the provincial governments of the three eastern provinces on the reconstruction of the affected areas.

"Brother Meng Ben, I see a lot of large enterprises. For example: Jiuda Group, the Arsenal of the Three Eastern Provinces, and the Manchurian Mining ...... And so on, almost all of these large enterprises have shares in the three provincial governments. As he spoke, Roosevelt paused and said in a deep voice to Tu Qianjun: "Will this affect private capital?!" Official competition squeezes private capital. Will it lead to the shrinkage and suppression of private capital?! ”

Hearing Roosevelt's words, Tu Qianjun smiled and nodded, "Brother Ruici, this is a very interesting question. I would like to say that there are some parts that I am not allowed to operate privately. These include the military industry, railways, steel...... Wait a minute! The words of a private bank. I'll be open to a part. But the main body is still the government. ”

As he spoke, Tu Qianjun asked Shang Dinan, who was behind him, to take out a notebook and open it, pointing to some records on it, and whispered to Roosevelt: "First of all, we have to pay attention to a question, how much influence will private capital have on the country?!" ”

Roosevelt was stunned when he heard this, while Tu Qianjun said with a smile: "There is no doubt that the influence of trusts is very great. That's why you've chosen to split Standard Oil. Because it's so big, it's big enough to affect a country. So you start splitting it up. ”

Roosevelt listened to the words of the military and nodded, in 1890. Standard Oil controls 80% of U.S. oil. Ohio successfully sued Standard Oil, and the trust was forced to dissolve in 1892. Eventually, Standard Oil was dismantled by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1911.

"But what we can see is that even though Standard Oil seems to have been dismantled, it's still operating in groups." Tu Qianjun smiled at Roosevelt and said softly: "It will take a certain amount of time to recover, but after the restoration, the entire oil industry system still has great influence on the government!" And politicians will inevitably have to enlist their support. ”

"The rest includes the military industry, the U.S. Steel Corporation, the U.S. Tobacco Corporation...... Wait, these private capitals, in fact, already control the whole of the United States, don't they?! Tu Qianjun sighed at Roosevelt and said softly.

"Once their interests are damaged, they can use some of the media in their hands to get rid of some of the parliamentarians who make them unhappy."

"In political elections, there are endless cases of using various scandals and scandals to attack opponents. And the expenses incurred by the campaign. Without financial support, it can't be sustained. ”

Roosevelt couldn't help but froze when he heard this, but the military son whispered to Roosevelt: "It is the nature of capital to chase profits. A trust that seems to have been split. In fact, they can be reorganized into new alliances. After a certain amount of time of precipitation and integration, there will be their spokesmen who will enter Congress again, but they will change their clothes. ”

Roosevelt was silent, in fact, what Tu Qianjun said was the current form of the United States. Basically, Congress is controlled by big capital, and the spokesmen of all sides speak for their own interests from the stage. The government has to look at the faces of these people to act.

Hoover's current failure or failure actually has a lot to do with these capitals. Andrew. Mellon became several Treasury Ministers, and this is actually a manifestation of this power!

In 1932, 65 percent of U.S. industry was in the hands of 600 companies; Only 1% of the country's population owns 59% of the country's wealth! Hoover's Renaissance Finance Company adopted that kind of business policy, and it has to admit that it has a great deal to do with this capital.

"The key point we want to discuss is, is it the capital that controls the state or the state controls the capital?!" Tu Qianjun looked at Roosevelt and said solemnly: "The power of capital is very great!" And its profit-seeking nature also makes it dangerous! ”

said. Tu Qianjun took a deep breath and said to Roosevelt in a deep voice: "If it is capital that controls the country, then what do you think capital will do when there is a conflict between the interests of the country, the interests of the people and the interests of capital?!" ”

They will not hesitate to throw away national interests! As for the interests of the people, just look at the current United States. Roosevelt replied in his own heart, though he did not want to admit it, but it was true.

In the face of the Great Depression, banker Albert H. Wiggin sold his bank's shares short. Afterwards, he lied and deceived people. Charles of New York Huā Bank. Mitchell tore up the agreement to merge with the Grain Exchange Bank, and in addition, Mitchell sold the securities at a loss to his family and bought them back afterwards to avoid federal income taxes.

J.P. Morgan uses a similar approach to exploit loopholes. In 1929, 1930, and 1931, he did not pay a single cent of income tax. Chicago Tribune boss Robert Brown. Colonel McCormick paid only a symbolic $1,500 a year in income taxes, but he wrote many long editorials urging readers to pay their taxes honestly. It's a lot.

Andrew. At this time, Mellon also used the capacity of finance minister to pursue those who owed taxes, but applied a different standard to herself. Following Mellon's instructions, the Director of Internal Revenue wrote him a memo listing 12 ways to evade federal taxes. The news shocked the whole of America!

As a result, a tax expert from the Treasury Department was assigned to review Mellon's personal income tax returns. It turned out that Mellon had adopted the Administrator's five recommendations, including a number of false claims of grants and a number of losses. to evade taxes.

Joseph. Kennedy himself was a business magnate, but he said that the belief that people who had thought that the people who controlled the major American companies were of good character and noble ideals had been completely shattered.

"We may be able to limit the beast of capital for a while, but it will continue to infiltrate the government, the media, etc. Finally devour its enemies! Speaking of this, Tu Qianjun couldn't help but sigh.

A bunch of elites in later generations are blowing nonsense, talking about food safety and the like. As everyone knows, in fact, the entire food industry in the United States has long been completely monopolized by food companies. In the United States. You will be prosecuted for speaking to food.

The Food Defamation Act, also known as the Vegan Defamation Act, is based on the Act in states that have passed the Vegan Defamation Act. The media and individuals can't just say that there is something wrong with the food.

For example, comments about the health risks associated with bacteria in meat, poultry or raw seafood, sulfites in salads, nitrites in smoked pork and other processed foods, as well as foods that contain high fat content, pesticides/herbicide treatments, genetically manufactured ingredients or other highly toxic chemicals, unless you have very strong evidence.

The bill was passed by 13 states, including Alabama, Arizona, and Colorado,...... Wait a minute. The specifics of this law vary from state to state, but a typical food defamation law allows food processors and distributors to sue individuals or groups who post derogatory comments about food.

In Texas and other major agricultural states in the United States, photos of the meat production process are posted. It is illegal to publish a report on the production process in the news genre that would cause consumer disgust without communicating with the originator! You could be fined $300,000 for having a photo of a feedlot published in a newspaper!

In fact, at this time the entire country has been kidnapped by capital. No one dares to talk nonsense about food safety, the famous show host Oprah. Winfrey once said just one word about a burger on her show.

But she was sued by a food company, and although she eventually won the case, it is unknown what price she paid. The only thing that can be seen is after this lawsuit. Oprah never spoke publicly about it again.

"Brother Ruici, we must first know that people are selfish after all." The soldier sighed at Roosevelt and said softly: "For their own interests, they will do whatever it takes." ”

Assassination included! Tu Qianjun added in his heart. Kennedy ended the Vietnam War and instituted a series of policies that led to his unexplained death. Even anyone in his family who wanted to get involved in politics was blocked by an invisible wall.

Anyone who wants to reopen the investigation into this case, whether a journalist or a dignitary, will be in dire straits.

"Limit capital, that's what the state has to do first. Otherwise, it will be ruined by capital! The soldier said in a solemn voice to Roosevelt.

"State capitalism, in fact, is to give the state a certain influence in capital! At least have a certain share to ensure that once the capital shows some temperament, this kind of sign can be beaten! ”

"But will this form 'cronyism'?!" Roosevelt thought for a while, and said in a deep voice to Tu Qianjun: "This is a very serious problem, once the system is formed, then a group of new monopoly elites will appear. ”

Tu Qianjun couldn't help but laugh when he heard Roosevelt's words, and then explained: "Brother Ruici, you will notice that I have put several special systems into the "Civil Service Regulations". One is the disclosure of personal property, and the second is the reporting of personal whereabouts. The other is the priority of their children when they apply for the civil service examination! ”

After a pause, Tu Qianjun explained to Roosevelt: "The system is open and transparent. Oversight is a must. Second, these managers will be included in the official system. In other words, they must be subject to supervision by the Disciplinary Inspection Board and the Independent Commission Against Corruption. Once there is a problem, whether it is themselves or their children, it will affect both sides! ”

"Of course. We also encourage private capital. This includes loans, technical guidance, and national trade ...... And so on! Junzi smiled and explained to Roosevelt: "However, the rules are also strict!" Once a problem is discovered, then it is necessary to prohibit the practice! ”

"For example, if the silk business is found to be shoddy, then we will warn if the first time the quantity is not large. If we find it again, we'll put him out of business for rectification. When the third time it is discovered, the store will face seizure. Employees are restricted from practicing the profession for five to ten years. There will also be a prison sentence. ”

Roosevelt thoughtfully recorded Tu Qianjun's words. In fact, he's now thinking about his new deal. But he didn't have a complete idea, and when he arrived in Manchuria, he suddenly found that he seemed to have found some inspiration.

So there was this conversation between him and Tu Qianjun, and Tu Qianjun paused and said in a deep voice to Roosevelt: "I don't know why the United States doesn't have such a reserve method as grain reserves, but the establishment of grain storage in China has been around for a long time!" ”

As he spoke, Tu Qianjun whispered to Roosevelt: "The Book of Sui. The eldest grandson Pingchuan said: "Ping saw that there were many floods and droughts in the prefectures and counties of the world, and the people did not give it, so they ordered the people to produce corn and wheat every autumn, and the difference between the rich and the poor. Chu Zhi Lu Lane, in order to prepare for the murderous year, the name is Yicang. ’”

This is the earliest record of grain storage. If the United States had its own grain reserves, it would not have been so powerless in this disaster......"

Roosevelt sighed helplessly, the United States has never considered the problem of grain storage. The United States is indeed entitled not to think about this issue, because the vast land and the advanced nature of cultivation are enough for them not to think about the problem of storing grain.

But in this moment of crisis, the government does not even have the food under its control! Even if you want to do some relief, you can't do it, so the people need relief and the government can't do anything, you can't grab the food that belongs to the farmer, right?!

"Nationalizing a portion of the industry, or at least being within the control of the state, will ensure the interests of the state and the people." The soldier said in a deep voice to Roosevelt: "Especially the banks, infrastructure construction, running water, trains, electricity, airports...... Wait a minute. ”

As he spoke, Junzi smiled and whispered to Roosevelt: "In fact, this theory is not new, Lenin, the founder of the Soviet Union, said in 1917: due to the prominent contradiction between private monopoly and capitalist economy, self-capitalist capitalism can no longer adapt to the development of capitalism. For this reason, the governments of the capitalist countries will actively intervene in the economy, so that capitalism will enter the stage of state monopoly capitalism. ”

Roosevelt couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect Tu Qianjun to put forward the concept of state capitalism. But he's a noble man with curiosity, amazing self-confidence, and a memory!

"Very interesting argument, Brother Meng Ben! Can you tell me more about that?! Roosevelt whispered curiously to Junzi, he didn't have much access to socialist books at this time. Therefore, I am somewhat unfamiliar with the terms that appeared in Lenin's article "The Coming of the Great Disaster and the Law of Prevention" written in September 1917.

But this is also normal, because this book was printed by the Foreign Languages Publishing Bureau of the USSR in 1947, so it is normal that many people do not know very well.

"The term 'state capitalism'. It was first found in Lenin's article "The Coming of the Great Disaster and the Law of Prevention" written in September 1917. Explaining the term socialism to the capitalist president made Tu Qianjun find it very interesting.

"It was World War I, the Tsar had been overthrown and the transitional government had just been formed. The whole country was helpless because of the famine and mass unemployment caused by the war, but it was still thinking about fulfilling the Entente treaty and continuing the war with Germany. ”

As he spoke, the soldier shrugged his shoulders and whispered to Roosevelt: "Lenin wrote this article and proposed a countermeasure: the state should supervise, supervise, count, and regulate production and circulation, and stipulate the correct distribution of labor in production. Eliminate the waste of people's manpower and save it. ”

"The main methods of supervision are the nationalization of banks, the nationalization of large monopolies, and the abolition of trade secrets. Forced to merge small and medium-sized businessmen, and forced people to unite with consumer cooperatives. As he spoke, Tu Qianjun paused and whispered to Roosevelt.

"In fact, Lenin's idea was to squeeze and control private capitalism with state capitalism. This is a bit different from my thinking, after all, all the national capital is not a good thing. Private capital needs to be maintained so that it can remain viable. ”

Junzi's words once again sent Roosevelt into deep thought, which coincided with some of his hazy thoughts. Historically, Roosevelt intervened with state capitalism and eventually brought the United States through the economic crisis.

On his third day in office, he announced that all banks would cease to operate. This was followed by the passage of the Emergency Banking Act by Congress, which declared a halt to the exchange and export of gold, authorized the Federal Bank to issue additional banknotes to address the currency famine, and reformed the Federal Reserve Bank to strengthen state management and control over banks.

The subsequent adoption of the Agricultural Adjustment Law placed all aspects of production under state supervision in order to reduce blind production, and the state intervened to regulate corporate and industrial relations.

This series of policies is, in fact, a manifestation of state capitalism. With the power of the state. Intervene in the economy and get it back on track. However, Roosevelt was not less denounced as an "economic fascist" by the voluntarists.

Watching Roosevelt write and draw in his notebook, pondering something from time to time, Junzi smiled slightly! He stood up and walked out of the cabin. He just stood outside the ship for a while, and Huo Diange came to his side with a telegram and said in a deep voice: "Commander-in-chief, call from Fengtian!" ”

"Hard work Uncle Xiuting!" Junzi smiled at Huo Diange, picked up the translated telegram and read it.

This time, Yan Zhengqing sent a telegram from Fengtian, first of all, Zhang Yaozeng, Shen Junru and others stayed in Manchuria very comfortably! So an old friend who pulled a vote came to Manchuria to take up a post, and also brought some Peking University teachers over.

The second is the matter of Xinjiang, where a group of demobilized military cadres trained by the governments of the three eastern provinces have entered Xinjiang and are carrying out large-scale work. The four major Malaysians in Gansu and Ningxia on the border of Xinjiang seem to have moved, and it seems that they want to take advantage of the political instability in Xinjiang.

In the end, there was a person from the Nanjing government, and Wang Zhaoming sent people to hope that the northeast would be a guarantee to help the government borrow some money from Britain and the United States. The government really feels like it can't run anymore.

Tu Qianjun couldn't help but smile dumbly when he looked at this telegram, and the central government was looking for a place to guarantee and foreign loans. I'm afraid this kind of thing is unprecedented, right?! It's a shame that Wang Zhaoming did it!

Junzi didn't know, Wang Zhaoming was also forced to have no choice! Manchuria has money, he can't rob it, right?! Besides. He can't grab it! But when it came to loans from Britain and the United States, the ambassadors of these two countries laughed and didn't accept anything.

Get rid of the Nanjing State Mansion, it's the four big horses! Looking at the news on the telegram, Junzi sneered, four horses?! Hope they come! Otherwise, what excuse will you find to clean them up?! Squatting there is also a scourge, good to get rid of it early!

The Ma Bufang who shouted "Give birth to me, I am born is a traitor". Even if he doesn't find the army, he still wants to find it! So after pondering for a while, Tu Qianjun called Fengtian back with a code.

Tell Yan Zhengqing that first, Nanjing's request can be agreed, but he will be delayed. Second, the strength of the National Defense Force in Xinjiang should not be exposed for the time being, and the four major Malaysias should be lured to attack! They were besieged in Xinjiang and then guaranteed to the government to recognize the IDF's possession of four Malaysian territories.

As for how to do it, there is no need to worry about Tu Qianjun at all. Yan Zhengqing and their old foxes are more treacherous than anyone else, and they are not like a joke in Nanjing? ! As for the war in Xinjiang, there is no need to worry.

Not to mention the combat effectiveness of the Wehrmacht, the commander of the Second Army Corps, Qi Mu Dengna, is also a man who was killed in the sea of blood in the mountain of corpses! The Soviet Union and Japan have all cleaned up, but they can't clean up the little four big horses?!

After he finished writing the secret telegram, he handed it to Huo Diange and said softly: "Uncle Xiuting, it's troublesome!" Huo Diange nodded, and then took the telegram down.

In the following period, Tu Qianjun had been discussing with Roosevelt about the way to implement state capitalism in the economic crisis. Originally, these policies were in line with what Roosevelt had in mind, in the way that he did not reject what Tu Qianjun said.

Just when Tu Qianjun and Roosevelt were discussing state capitalism, a bunch of people in China hated him to death! The first of these people are Jiang Zhongzheng and Song Ziwen.

Finally, they communicated with the elders at all levels and prepared to force Wang Zhaoming back. As a result, he Manchuria promised to guarantee a loan to Wang Zhaoming, and suddenly he turned over again at the sight of the salted fish that was about to die! How do you let these two people not hate Tu Qianjun with itchy teeth?!

Compared with the two, Wang Zhaoming was so happy that he wanted to go straight to Manchuria and kiss Yan Zhengqing's old face fiercely! It's so timely! Originally, officials at all levels and the elders of the state government looked at him more and more unkindly, but now that there is news that they can get money, these people's faces look much better!

Qinghai, Ningxia and northern Gansu In this region, power is shared by a family surnamed Ma - Ma Hongkui, Ma Hongbin, Ma Bufang, Ma Buqing!

Now, the four Malaysians have put aside their old grudges and gathered at the junction of Gansu, Qinghai and Xinjiang. There are now nearly 6,000 troops from four Malaysians - none of whom trust anyone.

"Zixiang, have you inquired clearly?! Is Xinjiang really so empty now?! Ma Hongkui, who had a square face, looked suspiciously at a man with a scumbag beard and a bald head and short beard beside him.

Hearing this, the man couldn't help but snort: "Of course I inquired clearly, Yang Zengxin's right-hand men Fan Yaonan and Jin Shuren are going to assassinate him!" The old guy was scared, so he sent the two away. Originally, there was Du Farong, a kid, but I guess he didn't feel at ease! I sent him to Manchuria to do some investigation. ”

As he spoke, the man paused and continued: "But there have been a lot of troops in Xinjiang recently, and I don't seem to have seen that military uniform. It is estimated that Yang Zengxin, the old guy, is afraid, the newly organized troops! ”

This man is naturally the most cunning of the four major horses! It's no wonder that Ma Bufang doesn't know the military uniforms of the National Defense Army, and it would be really strange if they knew what kind of military uniforms the National Defense Forces wore from such a distance in the Republic of China, where the news was not convenient.

Moreover, the Wehrmacht has been extremely low-key since its stationing, and there has been little contact with the outside world.

"Recently, a group of officials have been newly transferred from Xinjiang, and it is estimated that they are Yang Zengxin's henchmen. In the grounding position too! Ma Bufang sniffed and snorted at everyone: "To be honest, I think this is a great opportunity!" His Yang Zengxin's right-hand man has just disappeared, and people are panicking! If we don't take advantage of this opportunity, it won't be so easy to get when he recovers! ”
