The Japanese are a very resilient people, and once they see a direction, they don't hit the south wall or look back, or even hit their heads and bleed, and they don't know how to repent.

They have already set their sights on Mukden's finance, so they don't want to give up, and the same is true of the Jeongjin Bank, and the same is true for the Bank of North Korea. After Lao Zhang heard the Japanese mention it, he immediately scratched his head a little.

"Mr. Katsuta, the official silver number has been handed over to the Fengtian Industrial Group, and this Fengtian government is not easy to manage!"

"Zhang Sang, we have already understood, what Mr. Duan Zhigui promised to give the industrial group was only temporary management rights." Katsuta Nakamichi said with a smile: "It's just the right to manage, not the right to belong, and it's temporary, I think it's better to hand over this power to the Bank of Korea." We are strong, experienced, and willing to contribute to the prosperity of Mukden. ”

Katsuta Nakado said very sincerely, as if it was true, Lao Zhang couldn't stop scolding, the Japanese are hypocritical, they obviously want to swallow Fengtian alive, and they also say that they have become Fengtian, which is simply shameless.

"Mr. Katsuta, Zhang Mou Jiewufu, I don't know about these economic matters, first call the person in charge of the industrial group over, let's discuss it together."

"Very good, I believe that the Mukden side will make the right choice."

Lao Zhang asked people to go to Zhang Tinglan, and at this time, he said again: "Zhang Sang, the imperial government is very happy for you to serve as the governor of Fengtian, something unpleasant happened some time ago, and I think Fengtian must strengthen public security." ”

Lao Zhang nodded and said: "Don't worry, I have organized a large-scale crackdown on bandits, and I have launched a severe crackdown operation, and I will do my best to ensure local tranquility." ”

"Zhang Sang, of course we believe in your ability, but I think we want to eliminate the bandits. It is inseparable from the cooperation between China and Japan, and I would like to recommend you a person who will be responsible for the communication between us. ”

A trace of unhappiness flashed on Lao Zhang's face, what Japan said sounded good, don't you still want to put someone around you, and then monitor your every move, Zhang Zuolin has the heart to refuse, but he also knows that it is a little difficult to do.

This time, the Japanese came to him under the banner of solving the carjacking case, and these demands must have been approved by Beijing. The Japanese are tantamount to getting the sword of Shang Fang, and rashly refusing will only give the Japanese an excuse to continue to stir up trouble.

Moreover, Zhang Zuolin also hopes that the carjacking case will be solved as soon as possible, and the pressure on his shoulders will be reduced a little, as for the Japanese, they can insert people. You can also find a way to prevent it, and then it will depend on who is smarter.

"I'm thirsty for talent. I don't know which talent is recommended by the Japanese side? ”

Seeing that Zhang Zuolin agreed so happily. There was also a smile on his face: "It's Mr. Yu Chonghan, who served as the governor of Liaoyang and was also in charge of foreign affairs, and is an experienced diplomatic talent." ”

The resumes of the main officials of Fengtian are all in Lao Zhang's heart, this Yu Chonghan studied in Japan in his early years, during the Russo-Japanese War. He served as a translator for the Japanese and also helped the Japanese gather information, and after the war, he was awarded the Order of the Emperor of the Second Class by the Emperor, and later recommended by the Japanese. entered the officialdom and rose all the way.

It is obvious that Yu Chonghan was quietly cultivated by the Japanese and broke into the pro-Japanese faction within Chinese officialdom. Zhang Zuolin didn't know that this Yu Chonghan would always work for the Japanese in the future, and after the 918 incident, he and his son became shameful traitors.

It can be seen from Yu Chonghan that in order to seize the three eastern provinces, the Japanese put a lot of effort into it, and I don't know how many people they bought and wooed.

Lao Zhang lowered his head and thought for a while, and then said: "Since Mr. Otian recommended, let Mr. Yu be my diplomatic adviser, specifically responsible for the negotiations between China and Japan." ”

While he was talking, Zhang Tinglan also rushed over, and when Katsuta Nakamichi saw that the other party was a young man under twenty, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and he quickly covered it up. But Zhang Tinglan still captured that the guy Katsuta looked polite, but in his bones he was still Japanese arrogance, and politeness was just a mask.

"The financial market in Mukden is very volatile, in order to ensure the interests of Japan, we propose to jointly set up an official silver account, which is beneficial to both sides, I don't know what the industrial group has to say?"

Zhang Tinglan knew that the Japanese thieves would not die, they would never sit idly by and watch the tickets to dominate the rivers and lakes, and there would be no shortage of open guns and hidden arrows, so Zhang Tinglan had already prepared.

"Mr. Katsuta, you might as well talk about your specific thoughts, everything is negotiable."

Katsuta showed a smug smile on his face, a young man who was not deeply involved in the world was much easier to deal with than those old fritters, he said with a smile: "The strength of the Fengtian Guanyin is weak, the management is backward, and it cannot assume its due functions at all, so I propose that the Bank of Korea inject 3 million yen, accounting for 60 percent of the shares of the Guanyin, and all the business activities of the Guanyin will be guided by the Japanese side in the future, and we will bear the risks." ”

At first, Shengtian just wanted to issue currency with the help of the loan control officer Yinhao, but as soon as he saw that Zhang Tinglan was young, he raised the price and directly asked for a controlling stake, which perfectly interpreted the greed of the little devil.

"Mr. Katsuta, that's not good." Lao Zhang spoke on the side: "You just said that you only provided reserves, why did you become a shareholder now, and the power to issue currency can only be managed by the Fengtian government, and cannot be handed over." ”

"Zhang Sang, since you can't hand it over, can the Weishenme Industrial Group operate the official silver number?" Consul General Okita sneered and said: "Since the industrial group can be managed, it proves that this is just an ordinary commercial project, there is nothing special, and the Japanese side can also participate, otherwise it is commercial discrimination." ”

Omida continued to threaten: "If this issue cannot be discussed, the carjacking case cannot be hastily ended, and the Japanese side will continue to investigate those responsible." ”

Conflicts between China and Japan have always been very intractable, and the Japanese are arrogant and insatiable, and the Beiyang government can only adopt delaying tactics and keep the conditions as low as possible. Although the murderer was identified as Russian, the Japanese did not want to let go of the Republic of China government easily, and in addition to making amends, they also wanted to expand their power in the Northeast.

In fact, it is to implement part of the 21 articles in disguise, such as increasing the number of garrisons, such as appointing pro-Japanese officials, and controlling finance. Yuan Shikai is now in a hurry, and naturally he can't bear the blackmail of the Japanese, so he can only acquiesce to these unreasonable demands.

"Mr. Losta, what you said is inconsistent, just now you said that the official silver account is an ordinary commercial project, and now it is tied to the carjacking case, which is a bit unreasonable."

"Zhang Sang, you are a smart person, how to characterize the official silver number depends on the needs. If the Mukden government insists on the power to control the issuance of currency, then we can only take away this power. If you only treat it as an ordinary business activity, we will negotiate in a commercial way, and Mr. Katsuta's conditions are already very generous, so I hope you will not refuse. ”

Lost fields put on a set of scoundrel styles. Zhang Zuolin's anger rushed straight up in his heart, these little devils are simply too arrogant and unreasonable. Zhang Tinglan, who was on the side, saw that Lao Zhang was about to have a seizure. He immediately smiled and said, "I think it's better to talk about it in a commercial way." We are glad to see the Bank of Korea take a stake in the official bank. ”

"I also think it's a sensible idea." Katsuta said with a smile: "Actually, I have already talked to Mr. Duan Zhigui, just before he returned to Beijing, he promised to sell the official silver to the North Korean bank, and I have already paid two million yuan in advance, I think at this time." Mr. Duan Zhigui is counting money on the train! ”

Shengtian looked at Zhang Tinglan with a sneer, this guy had already decided to eat Fengtian, they relied on Shili to directly oppress, plus Duan Zhigui was such a pig teammate. The official silver number was betrayed early, and it was too difficult to keep the official silver number.

"Mr. Katsuta, the official silver number is worth more than two million, right?"

"That's just the upfront price, and I'll pay another million to get 60 percent of the shares, which is a very fair price, and I suggest you don't think about it."

Katsuta looked full of confidence, Zhang Tinglan lowered his head and thought for a long time, and then said with a wry smile: "Since the controlling stake is in the hands of the Japanese side, there is no difference between 60 percent and 100 percent. ”

"There's nothing wrong with it, in fact, General Zhang, the contemptible people suggest that you hand over the official silver number directly to us, and then you can borrow from us for any amount of money, which is definitely a discount that others can't enjoy.

Old Zhang was silent, Zhang Tinglan thought for a while, and then asked: "If we agree to this request, does it mean that the problem of the carjacking case is over forever?" ”

Otian nodded: "As long as the official silver number is handed over, our imperial government will treat it as if the previous unhappiness has not happened." ”

"Okay, I promise you, all the official silver accounts will be sold to you, and we can sign the agreement now."

Zhang Tinglan happily agreed to the request of the Japanese, but he was a little stunned, he was very awkward in dealing with Zhang Zuolin in the past, this bandit leader was full of cunning, they had long been ready for hard negotiations, who knew that it would be so easy to agree, it was definitely a little unexpected.

Katsuta was also a little surprised, but since the other party agreed, his goal was achieved, and he didn't care about anything else, so he quickly initialed an agreement, and the Bank of Korea paid another 2.5 million yen to buy all the shares of the official bank, and after the agreement was signed, Katsuta couldn't wait to take over the official bank.

Watching Shengtian leave in a hurry, Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Zuolin changed their loss just now, and they both showed a smug smile.

"Tinglan, you're still clever enough to know that these guys aren't well-intentioned." Lao Zhang said with great emotion: "If you hadn't prepared in advance, I'm afraid that this time I would have really caught off guard." ”

Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Zuolin were naturally acting just now, even if they were killed, they would not easily sell the currency official silver number, and the reason why they could be sold was because the most valuable things had already been transferred.

Katsuta did not know this, and he enthusiastically took over the official bank account and transferred a large number of professional personnel from the Bank of Korea to check the accounts and ensure the normal operation of the official bank.

As soon as he arrived in Mukden, he successfully became the king of finance in Mukden, which made Katsuda excited. Those martial artists only know how to snatch by fists, but that is too inefficient, only printing money is the most profitable, a thin piece of paper, as much as you want, you can have as much value.

Then they will be able to turn China's rich resources into Japan's, and what is even more amazing is that the Chinese government will also be burdened with huge debts and become puppets in the hands of the Japanese, and slowly the three eastern provinces will be the de facto colonies of Japan, and they can do whatever they want.

Just when Katsuta was excited, a few of his subordinates suddenly ran over in a panic, and they put a document in front of Katsuta. Katsuta opened it and saw that it was only a few lines of words, and he couldn't bear it, his face turned red, and he gasped for breath in his nostrils, like a crazy bull, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked the hardwood coffee table in front of him away.

He shouted loudly: "Baga, dare to deceive the imperial government, despicable people, I will tear you apart!" ”

Just when Shengtian was thunderous, not far from Fengtian Railway Station, a new bank was officially inaugurated, Fengtian Bank was born, from now on this bank will take over the official bank number, responsible for the issuance of currency, and this bank is still a pure private bank, the biggest boss is Zhang Tinglan!
