With the end of the war, the Wehrmacht in Korea returned to the country by sea and land.

By sea, of course, it is through Guò Pyongyang to take a boat back to Dalian or some other port. The overland route is simpler, going directly north across the Yalu River.

And these heroes who brought back victory for their homeland naturally received heroic treatment after returning to their own country. Even the soldiers who were wounded on the battlefield followed the triumphant troops, in the ports and in the cities, receiving the cheers of the countrymen...

For them, these people are heroes...

And after a lot of work, they deserve to be treated like heroes...

It can be said that after the triumphant return of the Wehrmacht, the whole of China rejoiced. In contrast, the atmosphere in Japan is much bleaker.

It's not surprising, after all, Japan's losses in this war are too much...

In Yan Shao's office, after looking at the very complicated number on the desktop, Yan Shao decided not to look at him, but to ask the answer directly...

"How?" Looking at Liang Shiyi, who was sitting opposite, Yan Shao asked softly. "If Japan does pay these money, how much can we benefit from it this time..."

"A lot..."Liang Shiyi, who was already a little old, raised his glasses, then looked at Yan Shao, and said in a very slow tone. According to our calculations, after deducting various expenses and pensions for troop casualties, our country will be able to obtain a surplus of at least about 300 million yuan after this battle. This money can be used to subsidize the government's finances, which are extremely stressful, and with this money, we can have a lot more money on hand..."

"That's true." Yan Shao smiled. "Although the more than 700 million must not be a one-time arrival. The Japanese don't have the financial resources to do so, but even if we can get tens of millions of dollars a year, it's pretty good for us..."

I can't help it, the expenses are too big...

The war that lasted for a year was certainly a very heavy burden for Japan, but for China. It's definitely not an easy thing to do...

It can be said that if it were not for the First World War, the help given by the European side. If China's economy has developed extremely strongly, it is difficult to say whether China can hold on, and even if it can survive, the so-called victory in the end. I'm afraid it's no different from defeat―――――― just like the Russo-Japanese War back then. On the surface, Japan won, but in fact it was Britain who won, and who told Japan that borrowed money from Britain to fight this war...

Even if you win the battle, you may not really be the winner...

In the same way, China is also the same reason, if it were not for the European war in the past few years, China has really made a lot of money from Europe. Even if we win in the end, I'm afraid the financial pressure will be very high...

――――――――――――――――――――――

"That's right. How are preparations going regarding the ceremony to commemorate the fallen and the maintenance of the wounded officers and soldiers? ”

After putting all that information aside. Yan Shao looked at Liang Shiyi again.

"It's okay..."Hearing Yan Shao ask, Liang Shiyi's expression was slightly bitter. It's just that the Japanese reparations have not yet arrived, and some time ago a lot of money was spent because of the war, so the financial aspect is still a little tight. Of course, as long as the income of the next year comes up and the first indemnity payment of the Japanese arrives, the problem will be solved..."

But now, just...

According to the agreement between China and Japan, soldiers of the Wehrmacht were killed or wounded during the war. The pension for the fallen will be paid by the Japanese alone, as will the wounded. This is also the reason why more than 200 million yuan has been added to the more than 500 million indemnities, bringing the total number of indemnities to 700 million.

The extra 200 million is actually enough for the bereavement of the dead and wounded soldiers. It's even more than it costs. It is precisely because of this relationship that when negotiating in Shanghai, Yamamoto Yunju and Gu Weijun can be said to have been arguing for a long time, because I felt that if I was to be compensated, I would not need so much money at all, and I resolutely did not agree to compensate according to this price.

Of course, in the end they succumbed, especially since the Nationalist government had been waging an offensive on the Korean Peninsula...

The problem was that such a war was difficult even for the Nationalist government, let alone the Japanese government. Even if Japan had been defeated in the war and had signed its name on the Entente, it was obviously unrealistic for the Japanese government to hastily come up with hundreds of millions of dollars to compensate the dead and wounded Wehrmacht soldiers.

Not to mention hundreds of millions, even tens of millions may not be able to come up.

In other words, the money needs to be advanced by the national government. Wait until it's almost over.

The problem is...

"Now the Ministry of Finance has no money," Liang Shiyi said with a wry smile. The war is about to run out of money in the treasury, and now the Ministry of Finance really can't take it out..."Speaking of this, Liang Shiyi glanced up at Yan Shao. "I think......... Is it possible to issue some bonds, or borrow some from the bank? ”

These two things, no matter which one they are, must be agreed by Yan Shao.

In the former, Yan Shao has always disliked owing others something, even if it is just some things like national debts. Therefore, from the establishment of the national government to the present day, the national government has rarely issued treasury bonds and the like. This has almost become an iron rule.

As for the banks.

There is no need to count on state-owned banks, because their only function is to print money. The only thing that can be counted on other than the banks of the Great Powers is the Rainstone Bank.

As the most well-funded bank in the world, Rainstone Bank lent money aggressively during the war, and even Britain and France borrowed heavily from Rainstone Bank to sustain the war.

Of course, China has borrowed money from banks as well.

However, the bank is strict, so it is easy to discuss, which is why Liang Shiyi would say so.

However, after hearing Liang Shiyi's words, Yan Shao proposed another solution after pondering for a while.

"How much money is needed, you open it, I'll donate it..."

Yan Shaozhi didn't blame Liang Shiyi, after all, a lot of money has been spent this year, and it is normal for the treasury to be empty.

However, the matter of bereavement is a top priority, after all, if those soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country and were injured did not even get a little reward, it would definitely affect the prestige of the government!

This is something that Yan Shao absolutely does not allow to happen, and the most important thing is that...

"This, this is not very good..."Hearing that Yan Shao planned to donate himself, Liang Shiyi's expression suddenly became a little ugly. After all, this kind of bereavement pension has always been carried out by the government, even if the government has no money, it is also a fund-raising from all walks of life, and the matter of a single person taking out the money has never happened―――――― government will not let this kind of thing happen.

Because there have been such examples in history, for example, the family surnamed Tian in Qi State, didn't they just buy people's hearts...

With such examples, the government simply cannot let anyone do it.

However, Yan Shao seems to be a little different, because Yan Shao is the supreme ruler of this government...

In this way, as long as Yan Shao doesn't mind, others naturally can't stop anything.

It's just that for many people in the Guoshe government, although many people have given up the matter of restricting Yan Shao, but watching Yan Shao blatantly buy people's hearts there, Liang Shiyi's psychology will always feel very awkward, and even his expression has become a little...

On the other hand, looking at Liang Shiyi, Yan Shao was full of interest.

"Isn't the government running out of money now, in that case, then it's up to me to pay the money, and there is no need for the government to repay the interest, it should all be donated, so that the problem of money is solved, and the government doesn't have to worry about fundraising, why not?"

Of course, there is another reason, that is, Yan Shao will never give up any opportunity to buy people's hearts.

For Yan Shao, he is willing to do anything that can stabilize his position. As for how much money was spent.......... isn't the reason why such a deformed thing as the Yushi Group can be stored now is because Yan Shao is the president?

As for money, Yan Shao's money is already enough anyway, in this case, spending a little bit of it can be exchanged for the consolidation of his position, which is definitely a very cost-effective deal...

Therefore, without even waiting for Liang Shiyi to object, Yan Shao had already passed the resolution.

Although Liang Shiyi was helpless in this regard, he couldn't say anything, after all, it was obvious that the government had no money at the moment. At this time, someone is willing to pay, how can the government refuse? It can't be said that you refuse to send money to your door for nothing, and instead issue treasury bonds to the people of the country, or borrow money from banks, right?

It doesn't make sense...

Just when Liang Shiyi's face was more ugly, at this time, Yan Shao's office was suddenly knocked open, and then he saw a very pretty female secretary walking in from outside.

"President, this is a telegram that has just been sent from Japan..."

Twisting his hips and swinging his waist, the secretary put the telegram on Yan Shao's desk.

After opening the telegram and looking at the contents inside, Yan Shao's face showed a hint of joy.

"Good, good!"

The content of the telegram is very simple, that is, Miyazaki of the Xingya Association has agreed to Yan Shao's invitation and is willing to visit China... (To be continued......)
