Since the Republic of China, warlords in various places have issued banknotes indiscriminately in order to raise military expenditures, causing serious currency devaluation. Because the domestic currency fluctuated so much, foreign banks used a pile of paper to exchange all China's specialties.
With the rise of Fengjun, the vote has become more and more stable, and many businessmen have accepted the vote. Especially after sending troops to the Far East, with the successive victories of the Fengjun, the vote has become more and more popular, and has become more and more popular.
Many businessmen invested in Fengtiao, resulting in the rapid appreciation of Fengtiao.
Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "More and more people are now admitting to the vote. We can make up for the financial gap just by printing banknotes. The financial dividend can reach at least 50 million yuan. In the long run, the benefits will be
It will only be more amazing.”
When Wang Yongjiang said this, he paused and then said: "I would like to say, if we can take the opportunity to promote the vote nationwide, the income from this alone will be enough to make up for the consumption of war funds."
When Zhang Tinglan heard this, his mind started to spin rapidly. In fact, according to Wang Yongjiang's method, the people of the whole country should pay for the war together. This is not unheard of in later generations. A certain big country relied on green votes to let the world bear the cost of the war.
Compared with the superpowers, Fengjun is far behind, so it can only let the country foot the bill. In this war, Fengjun did consume a lot of wealth. If this method can be used to make up for the financial gap, it will be a good thing.
Zhang Tinglan lowered his head and thought again, and finally waved his hand: "Mr. Minyuan, the credit of banknotes is guaranteed by the strength of the government. The great powers dare to open banks in China and issue bank bonds because their maritime power can reach China.
If we want to push the vote to the whole country, we must also have the ability to send troops to the whole country. Otherwise, if others make some small moves, the vote will fluctuate, and we will become a cash cow for the great powers."
Zhang Tinglan's worries are not unreasonable, and he is promoting the vote to the whole country. At the same time, he touches the cheese of the great powers and local warlords, and he will definitely be counterattacked. Without enough strength, he must not do such a thing that offends the people of the world, no matter how big it is.
Attraction.
"Honestly speaking, I have actually considered the risks involved. It's just that Fengjun's reputation is so great that it would be a pity if we miss the opportunity. Moreover, we will also vigorously develop industry next. It won't work without enough funds. I
There is no other way, so we have to resort to dangerous tactics."
Zhang Tinglan was also aware of Wang Yongjiang's considerations. He thought about it carefully and then said with a smile: "Mr. Minyuan, if you want to make money, you still have to rely on financial means, but we can use a different technique."
Wang Yongjiang has been thinking about this problem, but has never found a solution. But after hearing Zhang Tinglan's words, he immediately became interested: "Idiot, do you have any clever ideas?"
"Currency swap!" Zhang Tinglan said four words with a smile: "We can discuss with each province to determine the amount of the swap, and then when the two provinces conduct trade, they can directly use the swapped currency for settlement."
Wang Yongjiang's understanding of finance has reached an astonishing level over the years. After Zhang Tinglan pierced this layer of window paper, Wang Yongjiang's eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile: "I have to say that this method is great. The currency fluctuations of various provinces have been eliminated."
It is very huge. If it can be exchanged with the Fengtiao, the Fengtiao can be used to provide guarantee for them, which will have huge benefits in stabilizing the currency value."
For the small and weak warlords, being able to be tied to Fengjun is definitely a blessing for them. Of course, the benefits Fengjun can get from this kind of cooperation are even more amazing. Once called,
, which is equivalent to forming an alliance.
With this alliance, the power of foreign banks in China will definitely be squeezed out, eventually allowing more Chinese people to use their own currency to avoid the outflow of economic benefits. And as financial connections become closer and closer, in other fields,
Cooperation will only become deeper and deeper.
If this trend continues, sooner or later a unified situation will be formed, and true economic unification will be stronger than military unity.
Zhang Tinglan told Wang Yongjiang his plan. Wang Yongjiang was very happy and laughed: "Zhu Yan's idea is really unexpected. If you follow my idea, it has pushed the powerful factions from all over the country to the opposite side. It's a huge blow."
It increases the risk. According to Zhu Yan’s method, all local forces will support us. This is how to unite all the forces that can be united to deal with the Western forces together, and the chance of winning will be much greater."
After hearing Wang Yongjiang's praise, Zhang Tinglan was still a little embarrassed. He was just plagiarizing the ideas of later generations, but later generations were planning a global layout, and he could only start at home. And the main target was the north where the Fengjun forces could reach.
Provinces.
But even so, according to Wang Yongjiang's estimation, it can bring more than 20 million direct profits to Fengjun a year, and it can also promote economic exchanges among provinces and promote trade development, and the benefits it can generate will inevitably increase exponentially.
.
"To put it bluntly, currency is only one aspect. During this period, investment in the three eastern provinces has also increased significantly. In addition to investment, a group of talents have also flocked to the three eastern provinces. In addition, some overseas Chinese are also preparing to return.
In our country, the talent gap has always been a big problem, but this time it seems that it is expected to be alleviated a lot!"
The most important principle of capital investment is to ensure safety. This is the nature of capital. Many Chinese businessmen have set up factories in foreign concessions and deposit funds in foreign banks just for safety.
Now that Fengjun can defeat the Russians, it is obvious that the Northeast is also a safe place. At least investing in our own country is more convenient than investing in foreigners. Therefore, during this period, a large number of businessmen came to the three northeastern provinces for inspection.
Talents and capital are similar. They need at least a stage to display themselves. Many professional talents are not unpatriotic, but there is no room for them to display in the country. These people are not afraid of hardship. They want to be respected and see themselves
The value of work.
In the past, China did not have this foundation, and they could not see any hope. Therefore, many people had no choice but to stay abroad. China has many science and engineering talents who have gone to Japan to find jobs, and there are also many in Europe and the United States.
In the past, Zhang Tinglan also searched everywhere, but not many were really willing to come back. But now the situation is completely different. China's straight downward national destiny has been curbed. By joining the Feng clique group, they can make contributions to building a powerful country.
With hard work, the value of life you have been pursuing can be realized, so there is a trend of returning to the country around the world.
"Mr. Minyuan. Whether it is investment or talents from your country, we must treat them properly and provide them with preferential conditions. We must seize this trend and gather all Chinese elites in the three eastern provinces to jointly build a strong country.
.”
Wang Yongjiang smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will arrange it myself."
Whether it is finance, investment or talent, they can only be regarded as accessories of Fengjun's war dividend. It is not a real feast, but this has made Zhang Tinglan very excited. The efforts and sacrifices have not been in vain. If you want to truly become strong, you must
We must rely on fighting to carve out a bloody path.
Of course, Zhang Tinglan is more concerned about the negotiations with the Russians. After all, the Far East issue has not yet been settled, and it is hard to sit back and relax.
During this period, Gu Weijun and Molotov held repeated negotiations. At first, Molotov was aggressive and insisted that the Chinese Communist Party unconditionally release all prisoners of war, and that Fengjun should withdraw from the Far East and restore its original status.
China border.
Gu Weijun would certainly not be polite to a loser and be so arrogant, so all these requests were rejected. And Gu Weijun responded tit-for-tat. He made Fengjun's request, asking Russia to recognize that the previous unequal treaties were invalid and return the illegally stolen territory to China.
, and also pay China 200 million U.S. dollars in war reparations.
Of course, the Russians would not agree to Fengjun's request. The two sides went back and forth and persisted for more than a month. During the negotiations, Russia also sent some troops to the Far East. They tried to bypass Lake Baikal and harass Ulan.
Ude and other places.
In response to the Russian provocation, Feng Jun resolutely fought back. Zhang Tingshu commanded the armored troops and stood ready, inflicting great damage to the Russian cavalry. Both sides went back and forth and engaged in intrigues. The Russians were obviously not willing to admit defeat.
After entering August, at the beginning of the month, Molotov was very arrogant and insisted on his own point of view. Not only was he unwilling to take a step back, he even threatened Fengjun to withdraw from the negotiations.
The reason why Molotov was so excited was very simple. The Russians had achieved a series of victories in Poland, and the main force of the Russian army had formed a defensive posture against Warsaw. It seemed that victory was just around the corner.
But on August 16, the Polish army commanded by Piłsudski successfully broke through the weak position of the Russian army, advanced 45 kilometers crazily, and successfully cut off the Russian army's logistics supply line. Even the Poles did not expect
, victory will come so easily. The Russian side had about 10,000 killed, 500 missing, 10,000 wounded and 66,000 captured, while the Polish army had about 4,500 killed, 10,000 missing and 2
2,000 people were injured.
Russia's best commander Tukhachevsky tasted the bitter consequences in this battle. He suffered a disastrous defeat under Warsaw. Coupled with the defeat in the Far East, the Russians lost a total of nearly 200,000 troops, which has exceeded
More than half of the entire Russian army.
With such heavy losses, the Russians were not only unable to mobilize more troops to the Far East, but also faced a life-and-death test due to the serious emptiness in the European region. If the Polish army, with the support of Britain and France, took advantage of the situation to launch an attack into the Russian hinterland, Russia would
There is a risk of collapse.
At this time, Stalin put forward his idea in a timely manner, signing a contract with China as soon as possible in the Far East and redeeming Budyonni and others, so that relying on them, he could quickly organize a force to protect Russia's security.
This proposal was accepted by the Russian high-level officials, and Molotov could only restrain his arrogance and sit down at the negotiating table. He had given up the unrealistic fantasy of letting Fengjun completely withdraw from the Far East.
China and Russia were negotiating. When Britain, the United States, and France saw that provoking a war was unsuccessful, they also changed their strategies. The three countries turned to support the Far Eastern Empire.
The envoys of the three countries jointly found Zhang Tinglan and demanded that the Far East Empire be retained as a buffer zone between China and Russia. Neither side was allowed to annex this country.
The Russians know very well that they can no longer drive China's power out of the Far East, so they are not willing to see China's rapid expansion. Therefore, they also agree with this proposal and want to reserve a buffer zone between China and Russia.
When the conditions came to this point, it was almost time for a showdown. Although Zhang Tinglan was determined to annex the Far East directly, he also took into account the opposition of the great powers, especially the lack of strength of the Feng army, so he could only settle for the second best.
However, Zhang Tinglan also made a request that the Far East Empire must accept the protection of Feng Jun. On the land of the Far East, China enjoys special rights. This includes immigration, tourism, reclamation of mines, investment and construction of factories, etc. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to transform the Far East into
It became a colony of Fengjun.
In order to reduce the opposition of the great powers, Zhang Tinglan also proposed opening up investment in the Far East to the United States, Britain and other countries. The great powers were not satisfied with this result. They believed that Fengjun gained too much. But after all, Fengjun won this battle and should enjoy it.
The fruits of victory, so they have no way to object.
After more than two months of fierce fighting, China and Russia finally reached a peace agreement at the end of August. The Far Eastern Republic was annexed by the Far Eastern Empire, whose territory extended from Lake Baikal to the Pacific coast, with a total area of 100
Five hundred thousand square kilometers.
The Far Eastern Empire accepts the protection of the Chinese Army and serves as a buffer zone between China and Russia. Both countries must ensure the sovereignty of the Far Eastern Empire and not seek to annex this country.
After the conditions were met, Fengjun returned the prisoners such as Budyonni to Russia. However, during the return process, Fengjun used another trick. Instead of returning them all at once, they adopted the method of repatriating them in batches, which was Russia's fulfillment.
According to the conditions of the contract, these captives will be returned.
In any case, the war in the Far East has finally come to an end, and Feng Jun has become a well-deserved winner. However, this winner has to face greater challenges, and the burden on Zhang Tinglan's shoulders has not eased at all.
First of all, the Far East has gone through wars and suffered extremely serious population losses. The current total population is just over 600,000. It is simply wishful thinking to use such a small number of people to develop 1.5 million square kilometers of land.
Therefore, a large number of immigrants need to be immigrated to the Far East to fill the vacancies. According to Zhang Tinglan's plan, within three to five years, the Chinese will gain a demographic advantage in the Far East and prepare for complete annexation in the future. Although the contract stipulates that the Far East Empire is not allowed to be annexed
, but whoever believes in the contract is a complete fool.
In addition to the Far East, the three eastern provinces have also ushered in a new period of development opportunities. Talents and funds have all poured in. Fengjun has also digested some key technologies obtained from Germany, and the output of industrial products has experienced a blowout growth.
, the technical level has also been improved.
Several persons in charge of military officer enterprises also placed a brand-new arms development outline in front of Zhang Tinglan, waiting for his signature.
