Chapter 59 Economic Crisis
What are you planning to do? Of course, you are planning to negotiate, but what are you doing?
The first naval fleet cluster of Lieutenant General Lukner, who had completed the combat mission, did not leave that sea area. They were still ordered to start war at any time. According to the instructions sent, the British were likely to take advantage of the opportunity of negotiations to launch a large military offensive in this sea area.
Attack on both sides of negotiations, this is an old method often used by the British. They gather troops during negotiations and launch an attack during negotiations. If they win military force, then the negotiations will naturally gain the opportunity. Before the British Empire completed World War I, they often use this method.
Therefore, Lieutenant General Lukner's fleet is a symbol of showing off his strength and is also in dealing with the upcoming attacks on Britain. As for dealing with this offensive, everything has long been thinking about it in Lieutenant General Lukner's head.
As for negotiations, he naturally doesn’t have to consider them, so who should consider them?
In November 1917, the "Xia" airship was the latest in a small official airship. It was used as a official airship of the "Qindao regime", mainly to pick up and drop off officials from other forces associated with the "Qindao regime", which was for the need of security.
The figure appeared above Qin Island City, and from the car, it directly reached the eyes of the British minister in the comfortable living room, looking at this rapidly developing city from the greedy island in the sky.
In a few months, the wide highways in the city have been connected to the network, and the overpass and immediate transportation system have also made the city more modern. As a future administrative need, the streets here are built wide and tidy. More buildings and buildings are being built at the same time, and the British Minister can't help but ask.
"Where did these guys get that much money!"
If you talk about money, when money is constantly converted into physical objects, there is not much money in your hand.
"We have started to lose money now. We have made too much construction. If my brother continues like this, I'm afraid we will be ruined!"
Angry, Mike Lang, who was in charge of economic development, shouted at Tang Yunyang, and he was just enough to scold him.
Now, although Guangdong and Shanghai have seen the development of Shandong, a large amount of investment has flowed here. After all, there is the first aircraft, airships, cars, tractors and other machinery manufacturing industries here, the biggest problem is that the construction stalls are too big, so if this continues, there are ten rich people like Mike Lang that are not enough to pay.
But he had to ignore it. When the "Qindao regime" was officially established, except for the provincial parliament, there were ministers from various departments. Mike Lang unfortunately became the minister of the Ministry of Economic Development. Gu Weijun was naturally the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Li Shizeng, before Cai Yuanpei arrived here, was the head of the Ministry of Culture.
Now that the economy is in trouble, he has to come to Tang Yunyang, who acted as the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Defense Forces and took the "Qindao regime" government official. Although he had no solution, he had to scold him and be defeated.
But the person who was scolded didn't care at all. Sitting behind the large desk, he only said one sentence.
"I have my own sense of responsibility and guarantee that the problem will be solved within two months. What do you think? Tell me honestly, do you have to last for two months that long?"
Sitting on the sofa not far away, Mike Lang, who had just finished his anger, looked at the information in front of him and curled his lips. The current construction climax actually puts them in a huge investment in various projects. Although it is expected that the future income will be very huge, the current financial pressure on various projects has made Mike Lang feel that he is almost exhausted.
"I once told you that our construction cannot be done like this. The economy has its own rules. We can't stand it if we continue like this! Now for the time being, if the progress of expansion can be slowed down, we may be able to support it for a longer time. Otherwise, I can guarantee that we will inevitably collapse within a month. If the economy collapses, we will be over!"
"Is one month? One month is enough!"
Tang Yunyang is obviously very confident about the current construction, so he is not worried about the economic collapse that is about to break out within one month. He is only worried about one thing, the construction speed is not fast enough.
As such large-scale construction, it is a necessary prerequisite for China's future unification and defeating the direct warlords. As a participant in Europe's reconstruction work after the end of World War I, and as a commodity to pour into Europe and the United States before Europe resumes.
Without this premise, even without the other party's military intervention, the new Chinese regime will return to the past under the economic pressure of the other party. The bad situation that must be developed by relying on their funds. For Tang Yunyang, who does not intend to close the country, this is something that must be done at the moment.
For economic dangers, it is not difficult for a soldier and a robber-like person.
"Don't worry, man, the current rush will come to an end after the construction of Shandong is over. What we must deal with now is the British minister who has landed here, especially the British and Australian fleets coming from the Indian Ocean and Singapore and Sydney. If we lose this battle, it will lose the cohesion that the Chinese have just united together, and will shatter their last hope. My brother is what I fear the most!"
In desperation, Mike Lang had to temporarily put the economic crisis aside. After all, even if the financial crisis is about to break out, it will be a month later, and this war is right in front of him.
He calmed down and talked with Tang Yunyang about their upcoming negotiations.
"So what do you think of this negotiation?"
While talking, Jane Merlin, his cultural, hygiene and scientific consultant, appeared beside them. Due to her special distinction, she now has to leave the Green Rose Hospital and care for her husband's career with all her might. Of course, this does not affect the operation of her own laboratory.
With her leisure, she often stays by Tang Yunyang during the day, so naturally the task of bringing him an indispensable coffee has become another kind of responsibility.
"If we fight well at sea, we will have to return Hong Kong to us this time. You and Gu Weijun must be clear. This time, we will tell them clearly that we cannot be too poor, especially our economic development does not want to be disturbed by anyone!
For example, if the consortiums in their country interfere or other consortiums in other European and American countries interfere with us under the instruction of the country, then I'm sorry, don't blame us for attacking their colonies. Humph, if we are poor, then the whole world will have to be poor together. If I can't live my life, then everyone should not think about living a good life!"
Hearing Tang Yunyang's "declaration" full of "black intentions", Mike Lang couldn't help but smile bitterly, shook his head and cursed.
"Does Mr. Gu know your policy? If he knew that you were such a robber, would he regret joining the Chinese Baath Party?"
It is not the first time Tang Yunyang is called the title of robber, and it is actually nothing, but he doesn't like this title very much.
"Well, Brother Mike said that I really don't like this name. You know what we say in our hometown. We call things like this bandits in our hometown. In fact, this name is what I like!"

The British ambassador who came to the airport between Qingdao City and Qindao City was not sure whether he should be angry or not because of such a welcome. He said he should be happy.
Gu Weijun came here to greet him. He was used to the Chinese nodding and bowing to him, and he did not see more people greeting him, nor did he see people nodding and bowing to him. Even the person who greeted him was just taking off his hat and greeting him.
When he also took off his hat and greeted the person who greeted him below and walked down, Gu Weijun and Tang Shaoyi, who had been waiting for a long time, met him.
"Are you Mr. Tang, the leader of Shandong?"
The British minister often showed arrogance towards other local government officials in China. At least in China, he had not seen any local officials dare to act disrespectful to him. Therefore, there was no more politeness in his words, and the restrictive word "Shandong Place" was naturally added to his tone.
But when he saw that he did not extend his hand first to express his intention to shake hands, the smiles on the faces of the two people on the other side became cold at almost the same time, and replaced them with a look of almost sneer.
"Mr. Ambassador, I think you are wrong. I am just the Minister of Foreign Affairs under Mr. Tang. I'm sorry that our local leaders in Shandong are not going to see it. I believe you saw it on the airship. He is busy with local construction work, so his time is very precious!"
Gu Weijun's answer not only spoke in a cold tone, but also saved the polite welcome words, as if these were enough to make the British envoy mutter in his heart.
"Is it because these guys are using these things to demonstrate to me to show their determination to fight to the end?"
Although he was not so happy when he encountered such a cold reception for the first time in the East, where he was often respected, the British were British, and they usually had considerable respect for their opponents who dared to fight them.
When the British Minister faced Tang Shaoyi, Gu Weijun's son-in-law and son-in-law reached out to his hand, and while shook hands with them, he cleverly expressed his humility.
