"We have already signed an agreement with the United States to build the Sichuan-Han and Ning-Han railways. Once completed, Sichuan, Huguang, Jiangsu and Zhejiang will be integrated, and the transportation efficiency of the railways will definitely increase significantly. The existing Luhan Railway, Jinpu Railway The railway also needs to be rectified, the standards will be unified, and the double track will be expanded to double the transport capacity. In addition, the Yangtze River Bridge will be built in Wuhan to directly connect the three towns together instead of taking the ferry. In this way, the three towns of Wuhan will surely usher in a high-speed period of development."

Jiang Baili listened to Zhang Tinglan's big spending plan, and nodded frequently. This amount of money is indeed a bit astonishing.

"Humble words, the Yangtze River has been a natural moat since ancient times. If you want to build a bridge, I'm afraid there will be a lot of investment."

Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly: "If you want to develop industry, you must keep up with the investment in infrastructure. Otherwise, it is just a fantasy. No matter what the natural moat is, it will become a thoroughfare sooner or later. Not only Wuhan, but Nanjing should also be built, so that the north and south The barriers were completely broken. Our army can travel from Beijing to Nanjing in a day or two at most. At this speed, the southern province will no longer be able to achieve independence, and the whole country will be united as one."

"In addition to investing in these infrastructures, I also plan to expand the Hanyang Iron Works to increase the steel production capacity to 20 tons. In addition, Sichuan and other places are rich in water conservancy resources. It just so happens that the Fengman Hydropower Station has almost been completed. Relying on the accumulated technical personnel, to the southwest Overhaul water and electricity, have roads, have electricity, and industry will develop!"

Jiang Baili also nodded: "This investment plan is certainly good, but there are still two major problems, one is the safety issue, and the other is the funding issue. I have heard Premier Tang cry for poverty more than once."

As soon as money was mentioned, Zhang Tinglan showed a smug smile: "Brother Baili, don't worry, money is not a problem!"

When Zhang Tinglan said this, his tone was not ordinary, and he dared to take money for nothing. This is really a bit bold, but Zhang Tinglan has the confidence.

During the earthquake in Japan, he made a profit of nearly 2 million yuan by shorting the yen. It seems that the figure is not small.However, at this time, capital mobility was far less than that of later generations, and Japan was relatively closed.Especially the number one war criminal Hirohito, although he has not yet ascended the throne of the emperor, he has also shown a rather courageous side, and has taken control measures and wants to continue arbitrage.It is difficult.

But Zhang Tinglan's bad intentions will definitely not end, just to clean up the earthquake site.It will take several months.Zhang Tinglan still has a chance to make a move. He has already sharpened his sword and is ready to detonate a bomb. That is the problem of Holiday Yuan.

Ever since he got the three-branch tree in Anhui, Fengjun has printed holiday yuan wantonly, basically printing about 3 million yuan a year.And at the end of World War I, in order to snap up equipment, Zhang Tinglan printed more than 10 million yuan a year, among the yen that is currently circulating on the market.There are at least [-] billion holiday dollars, a considerable part of which has already entered the hands of countries such as Europe and the United States.

If this problem is exposed, the blow to the yen will be even heavier. It can be said to be even worse. At least another 2 million yuan in profits can be squeezed out. With this money, there is hope for the development of Wuhan and the Southwest.

Jiang Baili also knew that Zhang Tinglan had some special methods. This young man could always get money from special channels.If, as Zhang Tinglan plans, China's industrial production capacity will exceed twice that of Japan, then the small island nation will no longer be a threat.

"Zhuoyan, now the training of the army is basically completed, and the chief officers at all levels have also been selected, but the commander of the guard division has not yet been selected. According to my idea, it is best to leave it to Wei Jiu (Zhang Tingshu)."

The Guard Division shoulders the security of Beijing and Tianjin, and has a heavy responsibility. As the saying goes, fighting brothers, father and son soldiers, it is natural for Zhang Tingshu to take up this position, and according to the plan, the Guard Division will enhance mechanized equipment, and Zhang Tingshu is armored It is only natural for him to be an expert in combat.

But Zhang Tinglan closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then waved his hands: "The first division is still handed over to Zhang Henian. As for Tingshu, I have other arrangements."

Jiang Baili also gave a wry smile: "Second young master's ability is well known to everyone, Zhuoyan, don't give up eating because of choking, and waste a general."

Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly: "I have already planned it, and he should be satisfied."

As a superior, the most important thing is fairness, so that everyone can be convinced. If Zhang Tingshu is placed in the position of the commander of the first division, even if he is promoted by ability, others will regard it as nepotism, as the saying goes There is no way to manage it if it works from top to bottom.

However, Zhang Tinglan was not allowed to wrong his second brother. After much deliberation, he planned to arrange Zhang Tingshu to the Marine Corps.This new unit that has just been formed has not received much attention. After all, the navy has not yet formed, so what role can a marine corps have.

However, Zhang Tinglan is very clear about the role of the Marine Corps. This is a sharp knife for overseas attacks. Whether it is against Japan or Southeast Asia, the Marine Corps is the vanguard, and this force is relatively independent. Let Zhang Tingshu take care of it. Basically, it is equivalent to the troops in your own cuffs, but you can call them at any time, and others can't talk about the short and the long.

Zhang Tinglan's confession was almost done, and then he said to Jiang Baili: "Brother Baili, you still have to work hard. Based on the existing military strength and future development, draw up a set of combat plans against Japan. There is a corresponding strategy. As long as the country is stable, we will go out, at least to restore the sphere of influence in East Asia."

The obsession with the land has almost penetrated into the bones of the Chinese people. It just so happens that there are no nuclear weapons now. As long as it is an area bordering land, Zhang Tinglan does not believe that anyone can beat the Chinese Army.Although the focus will be on recuperation in the future, Zhang Tinglan is already preparing to pave the way for territorial expansion.

Just after Jiang Baili left, Prime Minister Tang Shaoyi came over again. As soon as he met Tang Shaoyi, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Zhuoyan, you are still alive. The Japanese were hit by an earthquake, and many people in China appealed for donations to Japan. Even Some lawmakers suggested providing relief supplies."

Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly: "After cleaning up so many pro-Japanese elements, how come some people don't have a long memory."

Tang Shaoyi smiled nonchalantly: "Zhuoyan, this is for humanitarianism, high-sounding, even if you want to refute it, you can't refute it. What's more, we are also neighbors with Japan. We have a knife in our hearts, and we have to live with face."

"It's just a matter of saving face. In this way, send two warships to help the Japanese in disaster relief. As for whether they are willing to use it, that's their business. In addition, donate another 5000 yuan, and send some food and quilts. That's it."

When Tang Shaoyi heard it, her face twitched slightly, and she said with a wry smile: "Zhuoyan, this is a bit too overwhelming!"

"Why, we still think that we are a kingdom of heaven, and we have to spend a lot of money. What's more, even if we do, Japan is no longer a vassal. When they rob us of 2 million, they will not be soft at all."

In fact, 5000 is not too little. It is equivalent to hundreds of thousands in later generations. I remember that a certain big country gave only 10 to a dog that has been raised for hundreds of years, and was praised by a bunch of people. This is the blood and sweat of respecting taxpayers. China also To keep up with the trend of the world ah.

"Prime Minister, let me give you another idea. If anyone still encourages donations, you can order a volunteer team to be organized. Whoever screams the loudest will let him pass, and let them share the joys and sorrows with the Japanese."

"Success, let's do it like this. Anyway, I don't have much money to send to the Japanese."

Japan, which just suffered a major earthquake, soon received warm and sincere condolences and sincere care from the Chinese side. I believe that the Japanese people who abide by discipline will be able to overcome the disaster and rebuild their homeland.

In the end, the Chinese government generously provided 5000 yuan, 100 quilts, 2000 kilograms of grain, 10 tents, and 200 canned food, which were transported to Japan by the warships Hairong and Montenegro, with 50 professional search and rescue personnel on board. The team can participate in the operation of treating the wounded and searching for survivors.

Seeing this telegram, the Japanese were almost pissed off. This thing is not enough to send beggars, and the most hateful thing is that China still wants to take the opportunity to send naval warships over.Those search teams are probably far more likely to find information than to save lives!

With the rotten hearts of the Japanese, of course they can't understand China's care, and expressed their gratitude for the kindness, but immediately rejected the request of the Chinese navy ship to enter the Japanese port, let alone the Chinese side to send a rescue team.

Now it also slapped some overly enthusiastic people in the country in the face. If they don't want it, it has nothing to do with China.

He is stingy with the Japanese, but he is extremely generous with Zhang Tinglan in China, and has successively announced several large-scale infrastructure investment projects.The railways across the country must be unified into a standard gauge, and management and operation must also be unified. To end the history of China's railways being divided and occupied by foreign powers, this investment alone is as much as 5 million.

Immediately, Zhang Tinglan announced an education counterpart support plan, which is to use Fengtian for the three provinces of Zhilu and Henan, use Jilin for Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and use Heilongjiang for Huguang, and transfer teaching talents from the three eastern provinces to promote primary and secondary education and literacy education.

According to Zhang Tinglan's plan, every five years, the literacy rate of the population must be increased by 20%, which means that after 50.00 years, the literacy rate will increase to [-]%. With China's huge population, the absolute number of talents , China can be compared with any great power.

For this education plan, the central government alone has to increase its budget by 3 million yuan each year, and the local finances have to take out 20.00% of the budget, and it has to be greatly increased year by year.

In addition, Zhang Tinglan is also planning to vigorously support a group of universities to form a group of industry-university-research bases in central China to create a new engine for China's industrial development.

Of course, in order to implement this plan and spend the money in useful places, Zhang Tinglan decided to go to Huguang in person to see how to spend it. (To be continued..)
