138. Meet the young marshal
Watching the army roll south, a sense of pride emerged in the young marshal's chest, but the scene of the meeting a few days ago resurfaced in front of him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What do those old decays know!"
It is precisely because of the repeated dissuasion of Zhang Zuoxiang, Tang Yulin, and Wan Fulin that the day of Fengjun's exit from the customs has been delayed again and again, and if it is delayed any longer, I am afraid that it will be too late. And Wan Fulin, the old man, still shouted, "Instead of contacting the center, it is better to contact the northwest!" ”
"Do you know what the cash in the Northeast is?"
Since the Middle East Road incident, the issue of currency in the Northeast has faced inflationary pressures. Although some measures have been taken, they have not been able to solve the problem fundamentally. Only with the help of the government can we stabilize the economy, otherwise the finances of the Northeast will collapse. And those in the Northwest and Jin are bitter, it's good not to help them, and they still count on assistance?
Now there is no negotiation with Soviet Russia, and the Japanese people next to them are eyeing each other. If there is another war, the three eastern provinces will not be able to hold on at all, and this will also require the help of the central government.
Moreover, this time when entering the customs, the Feng army completely took off the hat of the Beiyang warlord, and there would be no situation where everyone shouted and beaten. Now he has been appointed by the government as the deputy commander of the army, navy and air, which is only under Jiang Gong. Moreover, he also promised that Ping, Tianjin, and the provinces north of the Yellow River would be handed over to the Feng system, which was larger than the territory owned by his father back then.
A smile crossed his face at the thought of this. These are tangible benefits, and they must be accepted both publicly and privately.
"Report, please see Qin Lang, the young owner of Jinbo Company!"
The herald's words surprised him.
Jinbo's business is very big, and I have been in contact with it, and the manager named Lu Jinbo is very good at being a person. Moreover, they buy and sell fairly, of high quality, and now the troops eat the military rations they produce. The young marshal still has some good feelings about this company.
"Invite him in!"
The young marshal walked to the tent set up by the roadside.
After a while, I saw a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old being brought in, and when he saw him, he smiled and said:
"Hello Commander-in-Chief Zhang!"
The young marshal was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile:
"I thought it was a middle-aged man who was scheming, but I didn't expect it to be a young talent, please take a seat."
Qin Lang thanked him and sat down on a chair next to him.
"Commander-in-Chief Zhang, this time a letter asked Yan Laoxi to withdraw from Beiping, so that this thousand-year-old capital would be spared from war. Qin was amazed, and this time he made a special trip to send some military rations to thank the people. ”
Previously, the Feng army had two battle plans, one was to attack Zhangjiakou directly, and then insert it into Datong to directly eliminate the Jin army. The second is to let the Jin army withdraw from northern Hebei on its own. The young marshal chose the second strategy, which can be regarded as avoiding a fight.
The young marshal waved his hand and smiled:
"They are all Huaxia people, and they should do this."
Qin Lang said again:
"Commander-in-Chief Zhang, this is the tax paid to the Jin Department this year, a total of 50,000 oceans, please accept it."
The young marshal showed a hint of surprise on his face, and then he said with a serious face:
"Fifty thousand oceans in taxes! This Yan Laoxi's harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are too much, and from now on they will be taxed at the normal tax rate, and if anyone dares to stretch out their hands indiscriminately, I will punish them severely! ”
Qin Lang smiled:
"Then I will bring the people of the surrounding provinces, thank you Commander-in-Chief Zhang! Over the years, there have been wars, and taxes have risen again and again, especially after the introduction of new taxes. Yan Laoxi's tax was also collected twice, and the merchants and people were also miserable! ”
This is also true, after the Central Plains War, the Tianjin-Zhangjiakou Railway was intermittent, and trade was greatly impacted. After Yan Laoxi paid for the grain and grass of the Northwest Army, the finances were also unable to make ends meet, and another round of tax hikes was carried out, resulting in the closure of many shops.
The young marshal pondered for a moment and then said:
"Mr. Qin's business is very large, and the production of nearby provinces still needs you to trade, and I will resume the Tianjin-Zhangjiakou Railway as soon as possible, and the freight will be ordered after negotiation, how about it?"
Now that the finances of Northeast China are also worried, coupled with the burden of North China, if trade is not resumed quickly, it will be devastating.
Qin Lang said with a smile:
"It's so good, don't hide it from Commander-in-Chief Zhang, and the contemptible people have a small property in Chahar. This time, Zhangjiakou was spared from war, which also helped me a lot, and I will definitely pay my taxes on time in the future. ”
The young marshal nodded and said:
"Now the scope of our army's jurisdiction is too large, even if the four divisions are divided, they can't defend it. The affairs on the grassland will be entrusted to Mr. Qin, how about 200,000 oceans a year, I promise that the Feng army will never set foot in the promulgation. ”
Qin Lang smiled:
"This is very good, Yan Laoxi's evil government has forced those princes to rebel, Commander-in-Chief Zhang is really saving the people from fire and water this time!"
The young marshal also had a smile on his face.
"Mr. Qin has other purposes this time, you might as well tell one or two, and Zhang can also make preparations."
Qin Lang immediately smiled and said:
"Commander-in-Chief Zhang, Yan Laoxi still has a lot of properties in Taiyuan City, I want to do a business with you, can I buy them all."
The young marshal smiled slightly.
Everyone says that the Huaxia military industry is Fengtian and Taiyuan, but how can Yan Laoxi's inferior goods be compared with Fengtian Arsenal. And this time, Chang Gong also sent a telegram that he must destroy the Arsenal of Yan Rebellion, and it is not impossible to sell it to this person in front of him.
"I wonder what Mr. Qin is for?"
Qin Lang said with a smile:
"Now that the war is over, Feng and Yan have fallen into the dust, but generals such as Yang Hucheng, Shi Yousan, and Han Fuyu have risen, as long as they can process some firearms, they don't worry about buyers."
The young marshal smiled:
"Mr. Qin really sees it accurately, after taking Taiyuan, the military facilities will be handled by you. But power plants are not allowed to be dismantled, and private factories are not to be offended! ”
Qin Lang nodded and said:
"Then thank you Commander-in-Chief Zhang, Qin still has a reluctant request, can I hire one or two of those technicians and technicians?"
Young Marshal says:
"I don't care about this, it's your ability to invite as many people as you want."
Qin Lang stood up and arched his hand, and said with a smile:
"Qin, thank you Commander-in-Chief Zhang, I have been bothering for a long time and I still look at Haihan and say goodbye!"
After he went out, the young marshal's eyes narrowed, and then he whispered:
"Iron Pillar, what do you think?"
I saw a young man in a military uniform walking out of the curtain, this person was the captain of the young marshal's guard, and he had always been loyal.
"I can't see the number of roads, but this person is not afraid, and those who only stare at the word money are not considered heroes."
The young marshal laughed.
"This kind of talent is easy to manage, and the number of people who have entered the customs in my army is 270,000, and now it is already stretched in North China, and I am afraid that some people will rebel when they are distributed to the grassland."
Tie Zhu said coldly:
"Commander-in-chief, can't you cut the grass and eradicate the roots?"
The young marshal shook his head.
"Yang Yuting's case has been stormy in the city, and if we move again, I'm afraid that the three eastern provinces will be divided. Now you can only slowly take back your authority, otherwise you will not be able to worship Ao, but become the emperor of the Han Dynasty! ”
Tie Zhu hurriedly replied:
"I'll strengthen the defense around the commander-in-chief, those old things dare to do it, and I'll exterminate them once!"
The young marshal sighed, but did not speak again, just looked at the army outside in a daze.
