Sun Yuanqi said: "Since this is the case, then I will go to meet Wang Tieshan and see how much he is worth as the governor of Zhili!" ”

Chen Xunen said: "My lord is not in a hurry to see Wang Tieshan. Now that the contradictions between the government and the court have not intensified, Wang Tieshan still has great illusions about the position of governor of Zhili. And Confucius once said, 'When the blood is declining, the precept is obtained', Wang Tieshan is now fifty and a half years old, it is the time to covet power, how can he be willing to retire and become a rich man? Even if you can really move him with money, how much will it cost? ”

Yang Jie interjected: "Since the Song and Yuan dynasties, there has been a rumor that 'three years of Qing prefect, 100,000 snowflakes of silver', as for the governor of the world, the governor of Zhili, naturally it is far better than the prefect, how can you make hundreds of thousands of yuan as an official?" If you want Wang Tieshan to give up the position of governor of Zhili, it is estimated that at least this number will be necessary, right? ”

Sun Yuanqi couldn't help but gasp: Hundreds of thousands of yuan? That's the equivalent of a year's education in a medium-sized province! Even if it is used to raise soldiers, it is enough to meet the cost of the mixed association for one year".

Seeing this, Chen Xunen smiled and said, "Adults naturally don't have to pay so much unjust money. According to the personalities of Yuan Xiangcheng and Tang Shaochuan, there will be a stalemate between the government and the court for Wang Tieshan's supervision for a long time. During this period, Wang Tieshan would feel that the hope of becoming the governor of Zhili was getting slimmer and slimmer, and his patience would gradually wear out, and the price of the governor of Zhili in his heart would plummet. When the adults make another move, it will definitely be worth the money! ”

Sun Yuanqi said: "Isn't this similar to the 'boiling eagle' in the old Beijing population!" But how long did you say 'a long stalemate'? Five days and eight days. Or ten days and half a month? ”

Chen Xunen said: "What's the matter, it will take a month or two, right?" ”

Yang Jie also said: "Actually, Mr. doesn't have to worry about missing the opportunity, because not only are we waiting, but the president is also waiting for Wang Tieshan to lose patience." If you don't put Wang Tieshan in order. How did this scene end? As long as we get ahead of the president, we don't have to worry about mistakes. ”

Sun Yuan nodded and said: "That's fine, in the near future, please pay close attention to the movements of the Great Presidential Palace and Wang Tieshan, and when the time is right, I will go to visit Wang Tieshan." ”

As Chen Xun'en said, the State Council and the Grand Presidential Office began a long confrontation over the matter of Wang Zhixiang's supervision, which lasted from the end of April to the beginning of June. During this period, many major events with far-reaching impact took place. For example, the Beijing Normal University Hall was renamed Peking University, and the name was completely disconnected from Jingshi University;

For example, a huge open-pit iron mine was discovered in Huili Prefecture, Ningyuan Prefecture, the southernmost part of Sichuan Province, because there is a hundred-year-old large Panzhihua growing near the iron mine. Therefore, it was named Panzhihua Iron Mine by Sun Yuanqi;

For example, the Great Presidential Office received a call from Tibet's Lianyu, saying that Tibetans and Han soldiers had started a war in Lhasa, and that countless people had been killed and wounded. At this time, Wu Keren led the vanguard of the newly formed 49th Association to arrive at Batang on the Sichuan-Tibet border after more than a month's trek. Liaise with the troops stationed in Tibet Sang Ang Qu Zong and Bo Zong Cheng Fengxiang;

Another example is Bian Yongfu and Wei Dexi, the leaders of the Kashgar Elder Association on Xinjiang South Road, who led the crowd to take action. Assassinated the new governor of Xinjiang, Yuan Hongyou. At this time, the transportation between Xinjiang and the mainland needed to pass through Gansu, Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places, which happened to be within the sphere of influence of the Sun family, so Yuan Shikai had no choice but to appoint Yang Zengxin, the former procurator of Xinjiang, as the governor on the one hand, and on the other hand, he ordered Zhao Jingxing, Zhang Shiying and others to provide relief to Xinjiang. This move just covered up Xu Shuzheng's action of leading the new 48th Association to Tibet from Gansu and Qinghai, and Yang Zengxin was forced by the situation after receiving the order, and also began to secretly communicate with Sun Yuan;

……

Although these things are all major matters, if they are dealt with a little bit, they will not shake the country's foundation. Therefore, Sun Yuanqi did not put too much energy into paying attention, and his eyes were still firmly locked on the battle between the palaces and courtyards in the capital without gunpowder.

Stay until June 9. Chen Xunen hurriedly reported: "My lord, according to intelligence, the Great Presidential Palace is preparing to bypass the State Council and resend Wang Tieshan as a consolation envoy for the Southern Army to assist Huang Keqiang in dismantling and disbanding redundant troops. In order to make Wang Tieshan feel at ease to go south, the presidential palace will allocate him a consolation fund far more than he actually needs, of course, the excess money does not have to be handed over. ”

Sun Yuan raised his eyebrows: "Yo, the Great Presidential Palace is also preparing to use the Silver Bullet Offensive?" It seems that the hero sees the same thing! ”

Chen Xunen smiled: "Isn't it! But adults don't have to worry, maybe we can't give Wang Tieshan the title of 'Southern Army Propaganda Envoy', but we have a lot of money in our hands! If it is replaced by the ocean, it is estimated that it will be no problem to bury him alive. ”

Sun Yuanqi was also full of pride: "What Yan Ji said is, then I will go and smash Wang Tieshan with silver now, and then send him back to his hometown!" ”

These days, Wang Zhixiang has been running around the capital for the matter of directly serving as the governor of the capital, constantly visiting everyone who has passed away in the same year, the government and the senators, and so on, and has been tossing and turning for more than a month, but he has not received the slightest useful news, and the government and the court are still deadlocked. For this reason, he couldn't eat and couldn't sleep, and he was exhausted. At this time, I suddenly heard that Sun Yuanqi came to visit, and I couldn't help but wonder: I have no contact with Sun Baixi on weekdays, and he suddenly came to the door at this time, I don't know what happened?

However, Sun Yuan became the chief of education, the leader of the New China Party, and the behind-the-scenes boss of Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Jin provinces, and he is now a well-known figure in real power. Hearing the report from the porter, he hurriedly walked and rushed to the door: "I don't know that Mr. Sun is coming, and Wang has not been able to greet him from afar, please forgive me!" ”

Sun Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Tie Shan is too polite! I heard that you have been living in Beijing recently, and Sun has been longing for a long time, and he has never had the opportunity to meet Jing, so he came uninvited, and the first person to ask for the crime should be the younger brother. ”

Wang Zhixiang is nearly 20 years older than Sun Yuanqi, even if Sun Yuanqi calls him "Uncle Wang", he will not suffer. But Sun Yuanqi's position is much higher than Wang Zhixiang, so he can only call him "Brother Tieshan". According to the practice of officialdom, Wang Zhixiang not only should not feel humiliated by this, but should feel honored, and feel that this is a kind of love, and he should be willing to do so.

After greetings, the two sat down in the main hall, and Wang Zhixiang hurriedly asked again: "Wang has been in Beijing for more than a month." Because of mundane things, he has not been able to go to the house to visit the chief, but the chief of labor has come to the cold house. It's really rude, I beg your Excellency Haihan! ”

"What did Brother Tie Shan say? It's too much of an outlier! Sun Yuanqi paused for a moment and then continued: "The 'mundane things' that Brother Tie Shan said, isn't it a matter of you supervising the straight?" ”

Wang Zhixiang's expression darkened: "As the chief said!" ”

Sun Yuanqi said: "It is said that the State Council and the Grand Presidential Palace have had a very unpleasant quarrel recently, I wonder if Brother Tie Shan has heard of it?" ”

Wang Zhixiang was stunned: What does Sun Yuanqi mean by this? Do you blame me for ruining the relationship between the government and the court? Or is it something else? Unable to find out Sun Yuanqi's true intentions, he had no choice but to say vaguely: "The State Council and the Great Presidential Palace are both important military locations, so let's prohibit others from watching first, and Wang has no redundant staff." How can I find out what is inside? Now that I heard what the chief said, saying that the State Council and the Great Presidential Palace were very unhappy for Governor Wang, I suddenly felt ashamed and sweaty! ”

Sun Yuanqi said expressionlessly: "Brother Tie Shan is a hero of the Republic of China and a revolutionary father. He led his troops from Guangxi to Hubei, from Hubei to Jiangsu, and moved to several provinces south of the Yangtze River, and he should know that the Republic of China and the reunification of the north and south were not easy to come by. The current responsible cabinet system is even more difficult to come by. The President and Prime Minister Shaochuan have known each other for nearly 30 years. The relationship between the State Council and the presidential palace has always been harmonious and friendly. In the long run, democracy and freedom, national prosperity and people's strength will be just around the corner.

"However, recently, the State Council and the Great Presidential Office have had a very unpleasant quarrel over the matter of Tie Shan's brother supervision, and Yu Gong has been in a state of affairs and shaken the country's foundation due to the dispute between the government and the court; There was a rift in the friendship between the president and the prime minister. People of insight are all heartbroken when they hear the news. As the core party of the incident, I don't know what Brother Tie Shan's high opinion is to resolve the current impasse between the State Council and the Great Presidential Palace? ”

Sure enough, those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come!

Helplessly, the situation is stronger than people, under the persecution of Sun Yuanqi. Wang Zhixiang had no choice but to say: "Now that I have heard the news of the chief adult, I know that it is for the mundane things of our people. actually caused the friendship between the president and the prime minister of Shaochuan to be damaged, and led to the abolition of government affairs and the shaking of the country. The matter has come to this, Wang is willing to die to atone for his sins! ”

Sun Yuanqi said coldly: "Now that the Republic of China is now, it pays attention to democracy and freedom, and there is no such thing as 'the king worries about the ministers' work, and the king's humiliation and ministers die', so there is no need to die!" However, for the sake of the country and the nation, the younger brother implored Brother Tie Shan to take the initiative to resign from all positions and announce his retirement as soon as possible, so as to avoid the intensification of contradictions between the State Council and the Great Presidential Office. ”

Wang Zhixiang couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "This"

Sun Yuanqi continued: "The younger brother knows that Brother Tie Shan is an honest official, and he will inevitably suffer from hunger once he returns to his wife, so the younger brother is willing to give 30,000 yuan as the cost of the benevolent brother's purchase of land and houses. After saying that, he took out the checkbook from his bosom and was about to write the check.

Wang Zhixiang hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Sun Yuanqi: "Whether Wang is in hiding or not, why should Chief Baixi break the bank!" ”

Sun Yuan said: "Fifty thousand! ”

Wang Zhixiang still refused to let go.

Yang Jie, who had been standing behind Sun Yuan getting up, suddenly said at this time: "Sir, why bother to spend so much!" The students heard that at the end of last year, someone bribed Ma Buzhou to assassinate Wu Shouqing, the commander of the Yanjin coalition army, and the cost was only 20,000 taels of silver, could it be that the price has increased so much in half a year? As he spoke, he reached for the shell gun on his waist.

Wang Zhixiang suddenly felt a chill, and hurriedly changed his words: "Wang's retreat is a fee, so you don't have to bother the chief adult." If the chief adult really wants to have a heart, he may wish to give 1% of the shares of Han Yeping Company as a pension for the end. ”

When Bloomage Bank obtained the right to issue currency, the stock price of Han Yeping Company first soared by 50%; Later, the Panzhihua iron ore mine was discovered, and the shares of Hanyeping Company more than doubled again, and now 60% of Hanyeping's shares held by China Industrial Machinery Company are worth at least 10 million yuan. Wang Zhixiang wants 1% of the shares, which is equivalent to 18 to 200,000 yuan, and it is easy to calculate!

Sun Yuanqi sneered: "Don't think about stocks, at most 100,000 yuan, otherwise Brother Tie Shan will treat Sun as if he never came." ”

Wang Zhixiang's face changed for a long time, and finally let go of his hand and said helplessly: "Okay! (To be continued......)
