Years of the Republic of China 1913

Chapter 2 The Money Offensive

() In fact, Song Jiaoren still had a few things in his heart that he didn't tell Liao Zhongkai. As Fang Zida made more contributions and his position in the cabinet became more stable, he gradually became a little scared as the Prime Minister and KMT Chairman.Although Song Jiaoren's organizational skills are extremely strong, he was almost the only one who promoted the reorganization of the alliance into kmt, and achieved great success in the competition with his powerful opponent Sun Wen, thus becoming the chairman of kmt.But in recent years, due to government affairs, he has paid little attention to the internal work of kmt, and Fang Zida is in charge of the organization department of kmt. Gaining the support of party members, he left the actual work to the people below to deal with, and rarely came forward except for important matters.

However, after Fang Zida became the director of kmt and took charge of the party organization work, the benefits and benefits given to party members are incomparable to others.Fang Zida held the financial power in his hand, and he also vigorously promoted the development of industry and commerce. He was close to the water, and most of the KMT party members were from excellent families. He or his family either did business or rented out land for a living. These people were cleverly tied together by interests. In the past few years, they have turned to business and even finance. Everyone's business has grown bigger and bigger, and the whole society has been gradually developed. . .

Therefore, Fang Zida has a lot of supporters within KMT, especially those party members who have benefited.To say a thousand things and ten thousand things, it is not uncommon for people to raise their heads to make a revolution and treat wealth as dung, but these are very few.What is a revolution?Isn't the revolution just for everyone to live a better life in the future?Who doesn't like someone who leads everyone to make a fortune together, and makes the kind of money that is taken for granted, and contributes to society while doing business?

Fang Zida's prestige in the party was gradually established, and he gradually gained a large number of party members who were devoted to him.Moreover, his status as a director is extremely sensitive.Calculating the time, KMT will be re-elected in a short time. Song Jiaoren, who has been the chairman of the board for two terms, is very anxious about whether he will be re-elected again. In his opinion, the biggest competitor within KMT is Fang Zida. Once Fang Zida and With Fang Zida's influence, I am competing for the position of the chairman of the board.

Apart from party issues.That is the non-Party issue that Song Jiaoren mentioned earlier.In fact, Song Jiaoren himself knew that the matter between Fang Zida and the Russians might not be as traitorous as he said, and it was probably a secret plan.But no matter what the plan is, it is not important to Song Jiaoren, even if the plan is ultimately beneficial to the country, so what?If Fang Zida's power continues to expand like this, let alone the chairman of KMT, even his position as the prime minister of the cabinet will be unstable.You must know that apart from KMT's internal elections, according to the Zheng Fu Constitution, it is only a few years before the new cabinet elections.Once he lost all his positions inside and outside the party, Song Jiaoren couldn't even imagine what kind of blow he would suffer.

Therefore, to suppress Fang Zida no matter what, this is Song Jiaoren's real purpose.Politics is an art of compromise, so what if Song Jiaoren cooperates with the leaders of the Beiyang Opposition Department in order to achieve his goal?As long as you control the general situation and hold the power in your hands, everything will be easy to handle in the future.

At the same time, Fang Zida's mansion was also brightly lit.In addition to Yang Du and Yang Yongtai, Zhou Yuanliang, Jiang Zhiqing, Dai Jitao and others were all there.Even Huang Kaiyuan came to the capital quietly.

"What's going on with Duan Zhiquan?"

"Still staying in Baoding as usual. I haven't seen outsiders or gone out these few days. I neither approve nor publicly oppose our affairs. I haven't expressed any attitude yet." Yang Du said, frowning slightly Said: "It seems that Duan Zhiquan is still hesitating. After all, the grievances between Zhang Ming and him..."

"Frozen three feet is not a one-day cold, and the misunderstanding between me and Duan Zhiquan cannot be resolved with a few words. Xizi, it is already good that you can do this, and the next step depends on God's will." Fang Zida was helpless. Shaking his head vigorously, although Duan Qirui has not expressed his attitude, Fang Zida was a little happy at first.But in the past few days, he has not turned to support himself, which made Fang Zida slightly disappointed.

"If you want me to tell you, why make it so complicated, just spend money on it." At this moment, Jiang Zhiqing interjected, and everyone stared at him dumbfounded.

"In this current world, of course, whoever has the most money will talk loudly. According to Jiang, this matter is actually very easy to handle. I don't believe that this matter can't be done with white flowers to clear the way."

"Nonsense! What kind of person is Duan Zhiquan? If he can be moved by money alone, it would be so troublesome?" Yang Yongtai preempted a sentence very displeased, looking at Jiang Zhiqing's eyes full of contempt, wondering if Jiang Zhiqing has made money recently. Silly?Is this head full of foreign banknotes?

Instead of saying yes, Jiang Zhiqing immediately burst out laughing.

"Everyone, you have misunderstood what I mean by Jiang."

"Ruiyuan, if you have something to say, just say it. I'm just listening to it, and I'm anxious." Seeing that everyone's faces were not very good-looking, Dai Jitao quickly smoothed things over.

Standing up and cupping his hands at everyone, Jiang Zhiqing said with a cheerful smile, "Blame me, blame me, blame me for not explaining clearly. The president, the two Mr. Yang, General Huang, Boss Zhou, Zhiqing's intention is not to bribe Duan Zhiquan with money. Duan Zhiquan already has a strong personality and is known for his reputation, not to mention that he has nothing to ask for now, money will never impress him, and it may even backfire."

Listening to Jiang Zhiqing's words, Fang Zida looked at him with great interest. In his impression, Jiang Zhiqing used money and cannons to open the way in his history. These two tricks laid the foundation of his "party state" and made the warlords of the Republic of China fight against each other. Become a nominally unified country.Now that he suddenly proposes to use money to clear the way, Fang Zida is interested to hear what he wants to do.

As expected, Jiang Zhiqing then changed the subject and said with a smile: "This paragraph Zhiquan doesn't love money, but it doesn't mean that others don't love power either. Don't you know what kind of people he is from the Anhui family? The so-called fortress Always break through from the inside, and the money must be used wisely. According to my prediction, it is still very easy to buy some people from the Anhui family, the key is the price."

Jiang Zhiqing's words reminded everyone that Yang Yongtai, who was opposed in front of him, was slightly taken aback, showing a thoughtful expression.

"Ruiyuan's suggestion can be tried, not only that, but also within the party." Huang Kaiyuan was the first to agree, followed by Dai Jitao, and after a while the rest of the people also nodded silently.

"Brother Rui Yuan, do you think it's better to find those people? Shall we contact the Anhui faction in the Congress first to get rid of the bottom line?" Zhou Yuanliang asked after thinking about it.

Jiang Zhiqing shook his head and laughed loudly: "What kind of drudgery is this? From my point of view, if you want to come here, you have to be ruthless. Didn't Zhang Jian and Zhang Jizhi come up with the proposal first? Then just go to him. In addition, Duan Xiangyan can also talk about it. By the way, I also heard that Cai Heqing went to make a fuss with Song Dunchu for the allocation of funds for the Ministry of Communications. Does this mean that it is not the same as money? If so, you can just go to these three people directly, why bother with the congressmen? There are too many people talking, after all, this is not a good thing, and it will damage the reputation of the president, what do you think?"

"This..." Everyone looked at each other, their brains froze for a moment.

Yang Du reacted the fastest, and he understood it as soon as he rolled his eyes, clapping his hands and laughing loudly: "Rui Yuan is right, this is the bottom line, as long as these three people turn around, the proposal of the cabinet will be considered half-way, and it is not at all. You don’t need to use your brains in Congress. Good! Good strategy! It’s still Ruiyuan’s brains, why didn’t I think of it.”

"Hehe, it's not that brother Xizi didn't think of it, but he just doesn't bother to think about these crooked ways. His ambition is not good, and his ability to discuss politics is far inferior to that of brother Xizi, so he can only use his brains in this regard."

Although he said he was self-effacing, the pride on Jiang Zhiqing's face was obvious.However, Yang Yongtai was a little worried about his suggestion, and couldn't help asking: "Can these three people succeed? I'm afraid they can't?"

"Why not?" Jiang Zhiqing said confidently, "Zhang Jizhi is a businessman, and it is the nature of a businessman to seek profit. Besides, as far as I know, Zhang Jizhi is very dissatisfied with the CEO's financial influence on the industry and commerce. After all, he is the head of the agricultural business. But in the final analysis, it is all about money. If his Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce has funds, why should he be sour? Besides, Zhang’s business is not small. If he submits, if he wants to do both, Zhang Jizhi can't stop him?"

"Where is Duan Xiangyan?"

"Him? Hehe, it's easier to handle." Jiang Zhiqing laughed and said: "The president holds the power of finance and armaments. Although Duan Xiangyan is the Minister of Defense, his old subordinates still have to eat and drink, don't they? In armaments, armaments, He was charged with the military expenses, and then lured with money. I think Duan Xiangyan is not a brainless person, but a fool to stand up to it. After all, even if he can stand it, can his old subordinates stand it? I'm afraid he won't be able to be his own master by then!"

Then, without waiting for anyone to ask Cai Yuanpei again, Jiang Zhiqing took the initiative and said: "As for this old master Cai, it is even easier. The old master is soft-hearted, but he is straightforward. It is definitely not possible to give him money directly. Find a suitable person to talk to him. Talk about it, complain about it, and then donate some money to education, and it shouldn't be a big problem to change your attitude."

Fang Zida listened to these words quietly, thought for a while and thought it seemed feasible.Jiang Zhiqing is not good at fighting, and he is reluctant to lead troops, but he really has a way of thinking about people's hearts. Although he doesn't know the truth, but he can't help being moved after hearing what he said clearly.

"Ruiyuan, leave this matter to you, how about it?"

"President, please rest assured, Zhiqing will definitely handle it properly!"

Jiang Zhiqing was overjoyed when he saw that Fang Zida agreed, and handed over the matter to him, he patted his chest and promised. (To be continued.)
