Fengxian Jiangshan

Zhang Tinglan took advantage of the opportunity of Zhengjin Bank's heavy losses to rapidly develop official bank accounts, which brought Fengpiao into a spring.But according to the nature of the Japanese, it is absolutely impossible for them to accept failure, so a counterattack is inevitable. Knowing that the Bank of Korea has taken over the Zhengjin Bank, Zhang Tinglan knows that the good times are over and he must be prepared.

Therefore, he first won the support of Zhang Zuolin and launched an action against the official bank. First, he transferred the reserves to the newly established Fengtian Bank, and then sold the right to issue currency to Fengtian Bank. It became an empty shell.

The golden cicada's shelling was completed, but everything was operated in secret, for fear that Japan would get the news in advance.When everything was arranged properly, the Japanese came to force the palace and demanded to hand over the official bank account, so Zhang Tinglan simply sold the empty shell to Shengtian.

When Katsuta Nakamichi saw the document, he immediately knew that he had been cheated. He spent a lot of money and only bought an empty shell. This guy was furious and immediately went to Zhang Tinglan to settle the score.

And Zhang Tinglan has already arrived at the headquarters of Fengtian Bank at this time. Although it has just been listed, the preparations have been very thorough. The main person in charge of the preparations is Wang Yongjiang. Because of Tang Yulin, Wang Yongjiang asked Zhang Zuolin to resign several times. Feng Bo also agreed.

Wang Yongjiang did not leave Fengtian, but helped Zhang Tinglan manage the affairs of Fengtian Bank. Before he took control of the official bank, Zhang Tinglan confided that he would take the bank into his own hands. At that time, Wang Yongjiang was still skeptical. , I don't believe this young man can do it.

After all, the power to issue currency is the lifeblood of the government, and Zhang Zuolin will not be able to pass this test.Unexpectedly, the Japanese pressed on every step of the way, but Zhang Zuolin made up his mind and threw out the official bank account, which fell into the hands of the industrial group.And the industrial group is in the hands of Zhang Tinglan, which means that this young man has become Fengtian's financial king.

This kind of calculation ability made Wang Yongjiang feel a little fear. If a few years later, I am afraid that no one can compete with Zhang Tinglan. The appearance of such a monstrous character will be a blessing or a curse for Fengtian and the whole of China. not allowed.

"Zhuoyan, did you see today at the beginning? You made arrangements for today early on."

"Mr. Yongjiang, how can I have that ability? I just think that the Japanese are going to make an inch of it, and sooner or later they will attack the official banks. The government alone cannot compete with the Japanese. It is better to bring in as many allies as possible. Let Fengtian businessmen Buying shares is a last resort."

"Then what's the matter with letting Americans buy shares?"

"Naturally, I have to find a backer. Are barbarians controlling barbarians?"

Since robbing the train.Zhang Tinglan reassessed Japan's power in the Northeast. The Japanese are far stronger than imagined. With the current strength of Fengjun, there is no capital to deal with the Japanese. Zhang Tinglan is unwilling to let Japan do whatever it wants in the three eastern provinces. It becomes imperative to introduce the forces of other great powers.

The first choice is the Americans.The United States was not affected by the First World War, and its strength is strong. They are competing with the Japanese for hegemony in the Pacific Ocean. They are absolutely willing to support a pro-American force in the Far East.

The last time the two sides agreed to produce gun stocks and magazines was a start.They are all testing each other. This time, Zhang Tinglan felt the strong pressure from Japan and had to bring in the Americans and use them to counter Japan. Fengtian Bank has 15.00% of the American shares.

"Zhuoyan, whether it's an Oriental or a Westerner, they're all of the same kind. When you use them, you must be careful of being tricked by them."

"Mr. Yongjiang, it's a race against time to see if the great powers annexed us, or if we were the first to have the strength to protect ourselves."

Of course Zhang Tinglan knew that the Americans were unreliable, and it could only be an expedient measure in order to gain precious time for development.Wang Yongjiang also understood his thoughts, so he said: "Humble words, everyone in Fengtian must have a sense of urgency. Walking a tightrope between big powers does not guarantee safety, and even if you are a little careless, you will fall to your death." Remind Zhang Tinglan to be careful.

While they were talking, there was a noise outside, and several Japanese rushed in. The leader was Katsuta Nakamichi. This guy had a limp face and looked very funny.

Zhang Tinglan hurriedly won over, and asked with concern: "Mr. Shengtian, you were fine when we met just now, what's the matter now, do you need to see a doctor?"

Katsuta completely tore off the previous disguise, his eyes were full of resentment, this guy saw the documents of the official bank account, and knew that he had bought an empty shell, so he was ashamed and angry, kicked up and kicked On the hardwood coffee table, it happens that Japanese people like to wear clogs, and there is no protection for the toes, and the toe covers are split at that time.

Blood dripped down, the so-called ten fingers connected to the heart, the toe was injured, and Katsuta's face was distorted.No matter how severe the pain in the body is, it can't compare to the wound in the heart. He has been a genius since he was a child. He has always been smooth and smooth, and he has never suffered such a loss.

Therefore, Katsuta went directly to Zhang Tinglan regardless of the pain in his feet.

"How dare you deceive the Great Japanese Empire, you must bear the wrath of the Empire, and you will never be let off!"

"Mr. Katsuta, why are you talking so nonsense? We respect Japan enough. When have we ever been deceived? We must have evidence for everything we say. Isn't it good to spread rumors?"

Katsuta grabbed the document, threw it in front of Zhang Tinglan, and shouted angrily: "Isn't this evidence that you deceived the Great Japanese Empire? You have already bought the official bank account, and then sold it to the Empire. child?"

"Mr. Katsuta, you are ignoring the facts when you say that. We said just now that this is just a commercial transaction and does not involve the government. Even if it is deception, it is defrauding the Bank of Korea. It has nothing to do with the Japanese Empire. If you even The difference between banks is unclear, and we cannot communicate."

Zhang Tinglan went on to say: "You guys took the initiative to ask to buy the official bank account. Didn't you check it carefully before buying it? You made a hasty decision yourself. We can blame us. Shopping malls are like battlefields. Don't you understand? !"

Katsuta was going crazy with anger, he didn't expect it.Japan's excuse for annexing the official bank turned into a rhetoric for others to gag him, and Katsuta's depression was unspeakable.However, Katsuta also inherited the Japanese's usual arrogance and irrationality.

"Mr. Zhang, we just signed a draft agreement, and I paid you 100 million yuan, which cannot be counted."

"You don't want to continue to fulfill the contract, so you can hand over the remaining 150 million to us. It's really admirable that you can do this!"

"Dreaming!" Nakamichi Katsuta popped out these two words from between his teeth, and then said sinisterly: "I mean that the agreement has not been implemented. We have the right to abolish it. I demand renegotiation. We This time we are talking about Fengtian Bank, including the issuance rights of Fengtian, you must hand over these powers. Only in this way can the anger of the empire be calmed down, otherwise our army will do it. Take what belongs to Japan. "

"I'm sorry, sir. I hope you say it again!" Someone said in half-baked Chinese. Katsuta Nakamichi followed the voice and saw a few Westerners walking over quickly. The person who said this was a short and fat man. old man.

He is dressed in a tuxedo, a top hat on his head, and holds a civility stick in his hand.Dressed like a typical British gentleman, he walked up to Nakamichi Katsuta and said, "Sir, you threatened to use force against Fengtian. Does it represent the attitude of the Japanese government?"

Katsuta Nakamichi was angry, but she still didn't lose her mind. The sudden appearance of so many Westerners made her feel overwhelmed, and she was afraid that things would get complicated again.

"This is my personal opinion, but the imperial government will also firmly safeguard our commercial interests. It will never allow imperial merchants to be tricked. It is necessary to take decisive actions and teach those who don't know what to do."

The British gentleman shook his head again and again: "I think you need to be clear about one thing. Fengtian is an important military supplies production base of the Allies. We have just carried out in-depth cooperation. Our British businessmen have shares in Fengtian Bank. The British government absolutely We will not sit back and watch Japan rob, and this behavior will also be cast aside by the entire civilized world."

"That's right, what Mr. Alexander said is very reasonable, and the attitude of the United States is also the same." A well-mannered Westerner in his thirties also said: "The Cleveland consortium of the United States has just reached a cooperation with Fengtian Bank, and we also have a stake in it." Mukden Bank, the Japanese side must be clear that Mukden’s factories are producing gun parts for the United States, and we will never allow Japan to disrupt normal commercial exchanges.”

With the Americans and the United Kingdom in the lead, Katsuta's arrogance suddenly weakened a lot. After all, Japan is not yet strong enough to ignore the world, and Katsuta is not clear about the situation in front of him, so he does not dare to express his position casually, worrying will cause international disputes.

There is another name that scares Katsuta, that is the Cleveland Consortium, which is one of the top ten consortiums in the United States. It has great strength in steel, oil and railways, and the Cleveland Consortium controls cotton exports. Japan’s textile industry Raw materials are imported from the United States.

Katsuta didn't dare to be arrogant because he had the handle in other people's hands. This American was called Kerry. He learned about the situation and said to Katsuta: "Since Mr. Katsuta thinks that the agreement is just a rough agreement, then I suggest that The money you paid will be returned to you, so that you have nothing to lose, but don’t take the idea of ​​Fengtian Bank, otherwise the United States reserves the right to take further actions.”

Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Originally we should have charged liquidated damages, but for the sake of the friendship between China and Japan, we will pay them all back."

Someone generously returned the 100 million advance payment to Katsuta, Katsuta Nakamichi was full of anger at this time, he was tricked by the humble Chinese, but he didn't know the situation, so he couldn't argue with the representatives of the United States and Britain , so he could only leave angrily.

However, after leaving Fengtian Bank, Katsuta Nakamichi suddenly woke up. He only got back 100 million. He had prepaid 200 million to Duan Zhigui before that, and now Fengtian Bank can’t buy it. ah.

How stingy the Japanese are, Katsuta has the final say, Duan Zhigui left in less than a day, and should be intercepted, so he immediately sent a telegram to Feng Delin, asking him to take action, and Katsuta also promised that as long as he intercepted, the Japanese Loans will be provided to them.

After Feng Delin, who was poor and crazy, got the news, he immediately took action, mobilized the army, intercepted His Royal Highness Duan's special train, and found more than 350 million yuan in the car. Falling into Feng Delin's hands, Lao Feng was almost overjoyed, but he didn't expect that because of this, his image in Lao Yuan's heart would be completely ruined, and the gain outweighed the loss.

Having withstood the pressure from Japan, Zhang Tinglan was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, but trouble came to him again. The opium seized from Tang Yulin last time was all from Rehe, and several batches of opium trafficked from Rehe were seized one after another. , Lao Zhang was furious, and immediately decided to send troops to strictly investigate the border between the two provinces, and completely eliminate drugs in Jehol. Zhang Tinglan's troops had been training for several months, and Lao Zhang just entrusted him with the task. (To be continued..)
