"I have to say that the cultivated land area of Fengtian Province is only over 20 million acres. The cultivated land controlled by these Eight Banners princes actually exceeds that of one province. It is simply too scary!"
"Yes, most of the land they control is in Henan, Hebei, and Shandong. It has always been a densely populated area. They have annexed so much land. I don't know how many people will be displaced or even have their families destroyed. These bastards are simply worms!
"
Zhang Xueliang also said angrily: "The most irritating thing is that the Republic of China is here. This group of people can still occupy so much land and wealth, dominate and oppress good people. Will the Manchu Qing fall or not?"
"Hey, the connection between the Beiyang group and the old bureaucracy is too close. They don't have the courage to reform the country at all. On the contrary, they have to continue to maintain the old system. At the beginning, Yuan Shikai made a big loan for the aftermath, which caused a storm in the city. If old Yuan
You are really courageous. If you directly confiscate the property of the Eight Banners, you will definitely gain more, and you will gain both fame and fortune."
Sun Liechen also laughed at the side and said: "Stop talking about this, if Lao Yuan had this courage, can we still take advantage of it now? Please tell me how much money we got. I looked at those numbers and I was confused.
My old eyes are dim."
Zhang Tinglan smiled and said: "We have made a fortune this time. The deposits and gold and silver we received directly from these people are conservatively estimated to be more than 50 million. We can directly use this money, and we are arranging manpower.
Transfer all funds to our account."
"It's quite a lot, more than 50 million, which is almost as much as Fengtian's two or three years' fiscal revenue. I'd say, if you take the Middle Road, the wealth you'll seize is only 50 to 60 million. These Eight Banners princes are really a bunch of giants.
mouse!"
"In addition to direct funds, other things are more expensive. Real estate and estates can be sold at the current price, which can reach about 20 million; the 27 million acres of land, most of which are fertile fields, are based on an average of one acre.
Calculating ten pieces of land, it is 270 million yuan; if the shop sales are discounted, it will be more than 100 million yuan. In addition, they also have a large amount of jewelry, jade, ancient calligraphy and paintings. All these things were sold, which is another huge sum.
The wealth, if calculated, will be at least 20 million or more."
Zhang Tinglan said the same, even if Zhang Xueliang and Sun Liechen were the same, after adding up these things, they both felt a little dizzy.
"This is almost 500 million yuan. I remember that the last year of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had the highest fiscal revenue, reaching more than 300 million taels of silver. As a result, the Xinhai Revolution was triggered. We got the Manchu Qing Dynasty's fiscal revenue for one year at once.
In terms of income, Fengjun can reach the sky in one step!"
Sun Liechen was overjoyed with this amount. If Fengjun gained weight, everyone would definitely benefit. It seemed that he had entered the customs this time. The benefits were really great.
Zhang Tinglan was equally delighted. Since the establishment of the Beiyang Government, the highest fiscal revenue in a year was only 80 million yuan. Mainly due to crazy interceptions from various places, the number has become smaller and smaller. 500 million yuan is equivalent to their six or seven years of income.
In addition, the Japanese extorted 230 million taels of silver during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894. Afterwards, the small island country quickly expanded like a tonic pill and became the last great power.
Feng Jun got more wealth than them this time, and the natural conditions in the three eastern provinces were superior. Zhang Tinglan was full of confidence and motivation at this time.
"Actually, we have only tracked down some of the upper-class princes and ministers of the Eight Banners. There are also many people hiding in the concession. If we can catch them all in one go, it is not impossible to get more than one billion in wealth!"
"Sorry, are you planning to rush into the concession and arrest people?" Zhang Xueliang's eyes were red, and Lao Zhang's bandit genes were burning brightly. As long as Zhang Tinglan nodded, the young marshal could immediately rush into Dongjiaomin Alley.
However, Zhang Tinglan grabbed him and said with a smile: "I don't want to conflict with the big powers yet. I regard these Eight Banners princes as an inexhaustible treasure. Now I will issue a wanted order first, and then keep a close eye on them."
Well, if there is a chance in the future, we will arrest them, of course kidnapping them, and they will become our regular source of income from now on!"
"That's it. I'm sorry. Didn't you say that you would continue to intensify the training of those sharpshooters and become special forces? I think this is an opportunity. In the future, kidnapping will be the graduation exam for special forces. The higher the position of the Manchu officials who are kidnapped, the more property they will have.
The more they do, the better their graduation results will be, and I don’t believe these guys don’t work hard.”
Zhang Tinglan was also frightened by this idea. If things continued like this, Feng Jun would really turn into a beard again, but he did not stop him. Anyway, he was attacking those princes of the Eight Banners. It would be a big deal if he could keep them alive.
gift, and don’t look at what they have ruined the country into.
"I'd like to say that I got the money, but what are we going to do with it?"
Sun Liechen asked another very critical question. After getting the money, he still had to put it in his pocket. Only then would he be completely safe.
"Direct cash transfer, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc. are all escorted back to Fengtian for processing. We also have a Forbidden City in Fengtian, which is directly converted into a museum. Valuable cultural relics are placed inside, and we dispose of the less valuable ones.
, but you can’t sell them all at once, but you have to ship them out slowly!”
"Well, that's the truth." Sun Liechen nodded: "If you sell too much of something at one time, the price will definitely not go up. The same is true for the properties and houses. They must be processed in batches and sold at a suitable price!"
Zhang Tinglan nodded: "The price is on the one hand, and it also depends on whether Fengtian needs it. In addition, there are many tenant farmers farming on these lands. I don't think it will disrupt their lives for the time being. Let's find out the specific situation first, and then we'd better encourage them."
These tenant farmers immigrated to the Northeast and enriched the population of the Northeast."
Land has always been the most important thing to the Chinese people. Zhang Tinglan is not planning to sell it all. Zhang Tinglan will use the income this time for two main purposes. He must continue to invest in Fengtian's industry and education internally. In addition, the Russian revolution is imminent, and Fengjun also needs
Seize the time to expand your military strength.
The main external target is Europe. The First World War has reached its final hour, and Germany's collapse is imminent. Fengjun must take advantage of this opportunity to buy the bottom of Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, so it also needs a lot of funds.
After preparing enough funds, Zhang Tinglan also hopes to retain some land in the pass and transform it into a farm model. This is a long-term investment, mainly because he wants to explore how to deal with the land issue.
The three eastern provinces are densely populated, land annexation is serious, and there is not enough cultivated land for maneuvers. However, the land problem must be solved, so Zhang Tinglan plans to reserve a large amount of land for pilot purposes.
In addition, if managed well, these lands and farmers will become internal agents for Fengjun when he enters the customs in the future. They can act as surprise soldiers, and they can also be used to collect intelligence and learn various needed information.
"I'd like to say that these Eight Banners princes have almost been confiscated now. Are you still planning to stay in the capital?"
"I don't have much interest anymore. Let's take what we should take. The next step is the confrontation between Li Yuanhong and Lao Duan. It's really not worth seeing. Let's stay away as soon as possible!"
"That's right." Sun Liechen smiled and nodded: "In the capital, they will force us to express our position. I am ready to return to Fengtian, meet Yuting, and then go to Rehe."
Sun Liechen's position as the governor of Rehe has been determined, and he is also the chief official of a province. Although Rehe is still a bit poor compared to the three eastern provinces, it can be regarded as getting ahead. Sun Liechen is very satisfied, so he is eager to take office.
"Then you will go back to Fengtian first. In addition, the teachers and students of Nanyuan Aviation School, as well as the Dagu Shipyard, will all be relocated to Fengtian and will go back with you. I plan to go to Tianjin first to deal with the problem of the salt field, and wait for it to be resolved.
Come up with a clue and then return to Fengtian.
"Well, that's good. Besides, I can get closer to the Zhou family. It's time for my young son-in-law to recognize him!"
When they were done discussing, they went to prepare separately. Sun Liechen and Yang Yuting led Fengjun back out of the pass in batches. They escorted a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry and returned home laden with loads. Everyone was beaming with joy.
Zhang Tinglan is also preparing to leave Beijing. Of course, there are too many properties of the Eight Banners nobles, and the inventory will continue. In addition, the land and properties, trading companies, mansions and estates obtained must be managed and sold when appropriate. Zhang Tinglan has set up a special
An office in Beijing is responsible for these follow-up tasks.
"I'd like to say that we have just made a trip to Beijing and are about to leave. Don't you think it's a bit anticlimactic?" Zhang Xueliang was the most lively one and was never in a hurry to return to Fengtian.
"Han Qing, there is a big event that will mark the history. I wonder if you want to do it?"
"What's going on? Tell me quickly!" Zhang Xueliang's eyes gleamed.
"The little emperor Puyi is still living in the Forbidden City. I told reporters that I would drive the little emperor out of the Forbidden City. Now the old man is pretending to be confused. We should handle this matter and drive the last emperor of China out of the Forbidden City. Isn't this right?
Isn’t the famous name a symbol of history?”
When Zhang Xueliang heard this, he clapped his thigh happily and said with a smile: "I said that my humble words will not be without purpose. Our spitting is like a thorn. We will do what we say. We will assemble the army immediately and we will fight to the Forbidden City!"
Sun Liechen and others took away most of the Feng army, but Zhang Tinglan still had a reinforced regiment on hand, which he immediately mobilized. During this period, Feng army went around the capital to search the residences of princes and ministers, and the common people were familiar with it.
But when they saw thousands of Fengjun troops dispatched together, with a ferocious look, the common people were wondering who they were targeting. When Fengjun troops rushed directly to the Forbidden City, they destroyed this building that symbolized imperial power.
After surrounding them, the common people suddenly realized that the little emperor was about to leave.
Not only the people, but reporters from various newspapers and students from schools came after hearing the news, they all gathered in the square. Zhang Tinglan said to them: "On the land of the Republic of China, there lived an emperor from the previous dynasty who occupied
The former imperial palace is a disgrace to the Republic of China, and Fengjun will completely eliminate the last cancer today!"rs!.
