Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 480 Sit Down and Talk

Kolchak was still a little reluctant to get a fake princess to order the world. He had always regarded himself as a loyal servant of the Tsar, and he was still unwilling to do such an excessive thing, so he sat in a group, silent.

Wang Tieshan took a look at this guy, and immediately felt a little contemptuous of him. He used extraordinary means in an extraordinary period, and he didn't even have the courage. What about this unbearable Ah Dou?

"Your Excellency General, His Majesty the Tsar has become extinct. If you support a princess again, it is tantamount to continuing the glory of the Normanov family. Except for blood, there is no difference at all. Your Majesty will feel at ease in heaven."

"However, a fake is a fake after all. Even with the help of Felis, there is a possibility of being exposed. Once that happens, it will be completely finished!"

"Your worries are unfounded. This Ms. Sophia is also from aristocratic background, and she was also a playmate of Her Highness the Princess when she was young. She is familiar with the Russian palace and knows all the habits of the Princess. She can imitate it perfectly."

"That won't work!" Kolchak still shook his head: "Your Majesty's family was killed last year, and a year has passed, and a princess suddenly appeared, without a suitable reason, it is difficult to convince people .”

Wang Tieshan said with a smile: "It's nothing more than making up a story. How difficult is it? There is a story about the orphan of the Zhao family in the Spring and Autumn Period of China. A righteous man named Cheng Ying sacrificed his child I donated it, but came here to hide it. Your Excellency, General, can also create a loyal minister, that is, Sophia's father, who traded his daughter for the real princess. After that, the princess found you again and returned to the country together. In this chaotic world, as long as someone is willing to believe it, is there anyone who can go after the truth in detail?"

Hearing Wang Tieshan's words, Kolchak finally thought about the matter carefully. The princess is just a tablet, a symbol of gathering all parties. In the case of Belarus' continuous failure, there are definitely a lot of people who hold a princess Willing to believe.

Kolchak slowly made up his mind, but he still looked at Wang Tieshan.He asked with a little hesitation: "You have thought so thoroughly for me, what exactly do you want to get?"

"It's very simple. On behalf of the Russian ruling government, you can announce the abolition of all unequal treaties between China and Russia, and give up all your interests in China!"

"No!" Kolchak jumped up when he heard this.A joke, if all unequal treaties were dropped.It is equivalent to returning millions of square kilometers of land in the Far East to China.The Russian tsars of all dynasties will lose their business for hundreds of years, how could he want to.

"Your Excellency, you need China's help now, and you continue to occupy China's land, do you think it's appropriate? And once the war is defeated, the entire Russia is owned by the majority party, and you can't get anything!"

"No, absolutely not!" Kolchak still shook his head like a rattle, and said loudly: "If I agree to this condition, I am a sinner of Russia, and my subordinates will abandon me. You must know that the Russians are the most Valuing the land, I would rather die than abandon the precious territory."

The polar bear's greed went deep into the bone marrow. At this time, Kolchak was still unwilling to give up the land in the Far East.In this regard, he is far inferior to the decisiveness of the majority party. They can sign the harsh Brest peace treaty and give up a lot of land in Europe in exchange for precious breathing time. Kolchak is too stubborn. .

"Your Excellency, since you don't want to renounce all treaties, you can only spend money. You take out a little money and use it to reward us."

"The funds are good, I agree." Kolchak didn't expect Wang Tieshan to be so talkative, and he also knew very well that things that can be settled with money are nothing.

"I'm willing to give you three tons of gold, what do you think?"

Wang Tieshan sneered: "Your Excellency, are you sending the beggar?"

"That's ten tons. Ten tons is already a lot. It can be exchanged for 700 million US dollars, which can equip almost ten divisions."

"A princess is worth at least a hundred divisions, don't you think so?"

The muscles on Kolchak's face twitched for a while. The other party was obviously more greedy than he imagined, and a small profit could not satisfy the other party's appetite.However, although Kolchak had a lot of gold in his hands, he didn't want to take it out so easily.

"Your asking price is too high. I simply can't afford that much gold. Ten tons is the limit. I can't afford a higher asking price anymore!"

Wang Tieshan smiled suddenly, and then said: "Ten tons is fine, but I hope that the two parties can sign an arms transaction contract. You first deposit [-] tons of gold in Fengtian Bank, and then we will pay you for arms and weapons as needed. Anyway, you We all need to buy weapons, and Fengjun’s weapons are of the same standard as Russia’s, and our price is even cheaper than that of the United States and Britain. This is definitely a win-win cooperation, and your Excellency the General will not refuse again?”

Kolchak lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded with difficulty. The two sides finally finalized the cooperation agreement, and one hundred tons of gold fell into Feng Jun's pocket.

"Zhuoyan, how much gold does this Kolchak have? We asked for a hundred tons, and he actually took it out. I think it's just a small head, and the big head should still be in his hands." Wang Yongjiang said excitedly: "This gold is a good thing. It is best to drain Kolchak's pockets and get all the gold into our hands!"

"Mr. Min Yuan, you are greedy enough, aren't you afraid that too much gold will overwhelm your hands?"

"Of course I'm not afraid. The more yellow things, the better. What I'm most worried about during this time is the security of the Fengpiao. If the political situation is unstable, the financial situation will be turbulent. The Fengpiao has begun to depreciate sharply. I am worried that the value of the currency will exceed Control, there will be a crisis!"

"Mr. Minyuan, we do need a large amount of gold to stabilize the Bong, but in the long run, we should gradually depreciate the value of the Bong, which is good for us."

When Wang Yongjiang heard this, his brows frowned immediately: "Humble words, only a strong and stable currency can maintain economic stability. If you want to depreciate with a vote, what are you planning?"

"Mr. Minyuan. Our factory has gradually been established, and we already have considerable production capacity. When we produce something, we must sell it to make the company profitable. The more we sell, the better it is for us. What do you think we Who should I sell it to?"

"Of course it's inside the Guan." Wang Yongjiang is also a smart person, blurted out immediately, and then he laughed: "My humble words reminded me again. Originally, our main trading partners were Japanese, and they bought mineral products from the three eastern provinces." , and then sell industrial products. At this time, we maintained a stable currency value to prevent the Japanese from depriving us of agricultural products at low prices. Now our trading partners have to change. We must devalue the currency for the entire customs market. It can increase industry The output of products. Just to promote industrial development."

Zhang Tinglan also smiled and said: "That's right, I got a lot of technology from Germany this time. As long as I digest all of them, the Northeast will have a primary industrial foundation, and it should compete with the big powers for the Chinese market. Grab a share of the market in the customs. If we eat meat from the mouths of the big powers, we can double the number of catching up with the big powers, and the gap between the two sides will become smaller and smaller until we fully catch up."

Wang Yongjiang couldn't stop nodding.He still admires Zhang Tinglan's sensitivity. The three northeastern provinces are beginning to transform, from an agricultural society to an industrial society. The two social forms have completely different operating modes.The agricultural age pays attention to accumulation, while the industrial age pays attention to operation. One kind of society pursues static, and another kind of society pursues dynamic. It is true that we must work hard, otherwise there is no way to adapt to this drastic change!

While they were talking, Yuan Jinkai came over suddenly. As soon as he met Yuan Jinkai, he said: "Zhuoyan, the Japanese Consul General Akajiri is visiting the assistant commander and wants to talk to us. He said that Japanese Foreign Minister Yasuya Uchida hopes to represent the Japanese government. Come and discuss with Feng Jun about the development of bilateral relations."

Zhang Tinglan was a little surprised when he heard the news. The foreign minister is an important member of the Japanese cabinet, he is very distinguished and would not go abroad easily. He is willing to come to Fengtian to negotiate. There is a lot of meaning in this.

Zhang Tinglan also hurriedly put down the work at hand and hurried to find Zhang Zuoxiang. The original handsome mansion had been burned down, and the new handsome mansion had not had time to be built, so Zhang Zuoxiang just worked at his original home. After Zhang Tinglan arrived, he went directly to the main hall.

Akajiri Masasuke had already left, Zhang Zuoxiang was thinking about it, saw Zhang Tinglan coming, and hurriedly said: "Zhuoyan, what's the plan of the little devil, why do you want to negotiate all of a sudden, is there some kind of conspiracy? "

"Father, I'm not sure right now. I'd better call Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai over and discuss it together."

Soon Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai were called over, and Zhang Tinglan asked Chang Yinhuai first: "Director Chang, what information do you have recently that can force the Japanese to soften their attitude?"

Chang Yinhuai hurriedly said: "I was about to report that there was trouble in the Far East. Because of the exposure of the Japanese atrocities, the Russian people were completely angered. Coupled with the instigation of the majority party, there were signs of a large-scale uprising in the entire Far East. , not only ordinary people, but even the original White Russian army has been instigated one after another, a prairie fire is taking shape, and the Japanese are also devastated."

Yang Yuting also said from the side: "Zhuoyan, according to the Air Force's investigation, we found that a large number of Japanese troops in Liaoyang have withdrawn. It seems that they are preparing to concentrate their forces and want to deal with the Russians."

Hearing this, Zhang Tinglan looked at her father, and Zhang Zuoxiang first said: "Although we have to take revenge on Yuting, as the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Now that we are not strong enough, it is okay to relax. "

With Zhang Zuoxiang's approval, Zhang Tinglan felt a lot more relaxed, and he really didn't want to fight against Japan anymore. It's not fun to dance on the tip of a knife.

"Father, then I think we should talk to the Japanese, but we must let the Japanese cut their flesh, otherwise we don't want to get away easily."

Yang Yuting couldn't help asking: "Zhuoyan, what do you want from the Japanese?"

"The first is the South-Manchuria Railway. It is difficult to get the entire railway back, but at least the dependencies must be abolished and the garrison reduced. Otherwise, the railway will be stuck in the throat and the threat will be too great. The second point is Japan's economy in the three eastern provinces. The privilege must be given up, especially the treaty signed with the Beiyang government, we will not recognize it at all. The third point is that they promise to stop all espionage activities, and if Fengjun finds out again, they will be severely punished according to Chinese law!"

"These three items are very important, and they are properly handled. I think it can be achieved!" Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "Zhuoyan, if you want to negotiate, you need a professional person. I have someone to recommend to you. He is guaranteed to be competent. This mission."

"Mr. Minyuan, what great talent have you discovered?"

"This person is Gu Weijun who fought against the foreign powers at the Paris peace conference. Although we still failed at the peace conference, Gu Weijun did not embarrass us. He returned to China not long ago and even went to Fengtian on purpose. You just happened to be away, so we met I chatted for a long time, quick thinking, articulate, definitely a first-class talent in diplomacy."

When Zhang Tinglan heard that he recommended Gu Weijun, he nodded again and again, and said with great satisfaction: "With Gu Weijun here, my confidence in negotiating with Japan has increased by at least [-]%!" (To be continued...)
