Fang Zida didn't know yet that he was about to be entrusted with an important task by Song Jiaoren. He was now leisurely drinking tea and listening to a play in a teahouse. The Republic of China was really an interesting era. There were fights in the Congress every day, and the north and the south exchanged electricity and yelled at each other.

The commotion was so serious that the people below remained indifferent and continued to live their usual lives, visiting gardens, drinking tea, going to the eight alleys to have fun, chatting and bragging, playing leaf cards... Everyone was doing whatever they were supposed to do, as if it were a matter of national importance.

These people have no influence at all.

On the stage downstairs, an old student was singing something unknown, and from time to time he would get cheers from the guests. Fang Zida actually didn't understand these Chinese quintessences at all, but that didn't stop him from pretending.

He was sipping tea and doing something very interesting.

"When it comes to this Peking Opera, I would recommend Wang Yaoqing and Boss Wang first. Boss Wang's floral shirts are second to none! I think back then Lafayette also praised Boss Wang for his Beijing whites!" Jin Jiu gave a thumbs up and shook his head.

He couldn't help but shook his head and hummed: "But since the Qing Dynasty was gone, the Shengping Department also closed Zhang. Now it's not easy to hear about Boss Wang's drama. But I heard that Boss Wang will be here some time later."

I'll go back to Beijing and hold a special show, and if I can listen to it one more time, I'll be willing to die!"

"Haha, it's not easy to listen to a special performance. I'll just invite Master Jiu to come when the time comes." Fang Zida said with a smile. After hearing this, Jin Jiu was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth and thanked him repeatedly.

These days, Jin Jiu's little life is quite comfortable. Since he sold his old house and got a large sum of money from Fang Zida, his somewhat tight life has immediately become more comfortable, and he has changed into a new outfit.

Not to mention, every once in a while I can still go to listen to a play, fight bugs, go shopping on the overpass, etc. It seems that I have regained the happy time in the past. Not to mention, Fang Zida also treats himself to restaurants from time to time.

After drinking several times, he regained the feeling of being supported by others, and for this reason, he became more and more deeply attached to Fang Zida, a very interesting friend.

When the old man came off the stage, Fang Zida took out his pocket watch and checked the time. Jin Jiu smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Fang, Mr. Xia will definitely be able to come. Hey! Look! Isn't this coming?"

Looking outside, I saw Xia Shoutian's figure walking upstairs, standing up with a smile, and Fang Zida quickly walked around the table to greet him.

"Brother Plowman."

"Haha, Brother Zhangming, I'm not too late, right?" Xia Shoutian asked with a smile as he cupped his hands in a friendly manner.

"It's not too late, Brother Gengfu, please come and have a seat." Fang Zida extended his hand to invite him. Jin Jiu next to him found an excuse to leave first. Before leaving, he specially closed the door of the private room for him. The quiet room was filled with

There were only two of them left.

After saying a few useless polite words, Xia Shoutian said: "Brother Zhangming, do you know Sun Wen's telegram? The president got angry today. Hey, after so many years of being by the president's side, this is my first time.

The first time I saw the president so angry, to be honest, brother Zhang Ming! You party members have gone too far."

"Haha, Brother Gongfu, look at what you said. No matter how bad you are, you can't overturn the whole boat with one stick. There are differences between Party members and Party members." Fang Zida didn't care and helped Xia Shoutian pour a cup with a smile.

The tea was handed over with both hands.

Nodding his thanks, he took the tea cup and put it down. Xia Shoutian put his hand into his pocket, took out a piece of paper, and sighed: "Brother Zhang Ming, what you said is not bad. The president also understands the hard work of your party Song Dunchu.

In particular, I would like to thank Brother Zhang Ming for his contribution. For this reason, the President also specially took care of me to express my gratitude to my brother. This is just a token of his gratitude."

Glancing at it, he saw that it was a five thousand tael HSBC bank note. Fang Zida did not refuse, put his sleeves on the table, and put it in his pocket very skillfully. He said polite words such as "How dare you", but in his heart

But he secretly praised Yuan Shikai for being generous enough.

Seeing that Fang Zida had accepted the money, Xia Shoutian became even more affectionate towards him. He also specifically told him about what happened at the Presidential Palace today. He also told Fang Zida that Yuan Shikai was ready to assemble the army to deal with the worst case by force.

Intend.

"We are all compatriots and we are fighting each other with swords and swords. Brother Gengfu needs to persuade the president more. After all, using force is a bad idea."

"Actually, the president doesn't know it in his heart!" Xia Shoutian said earnestly: "The solution by force is of course the last resort. Sun Tzu said in the beginning of The Art of War: Soldiers are the major affairs of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival. You must observe it. More

What's more, although the north and the south have different opinions, they are all citizens after all. The country has been established, the Republic of China has been established, and the congressional elections are also in progress. If possible, we should avoid using troops as much as possible. However... once Sun Wen and others raise troops in the south,

The central government will never sit idly by and watch the chaos unfold if it wants to separate the country and set up another government. At that time, I am afraid that this is the only way the president can go."

"Of course this little brother understands." Fang Zida nodded with understanding, frowning and showing a worried look.

Seeing Fang Zida's expression, Xia Shoutian smiled and comforted him: "This is just the worst-case scenario. Brother Zhang Ming doesn't need to worry too much. In fact, the president still wants to coordinate a solution. To be honest, Brother Zhang Ming, I will come before

I have been entrusted by the President to send someone to Song Dunchu's house. The President wants to treat him to a meal tomorrow, and maybe we can work out a way to get the best of both worlds."

"Oh, that's a good thing. The president is far-sighted!" Fang Zida seemed relieved after hearing this, nodding in admiration.

"Brother Zhang Ming is an unparalleled national scholar. In the early days of Song Dynasty, having the help of such a great talent as Brother Zhang Ming was like adding more power to a tiger. I also ask Brother Zhang Ming to consider the overall interests of the country this time and try to persuade him to make peace."

"This is what it should be, it should be." Fang Zida replied very modestly: "The younger brother Dunchu must give me some advice. As for the president, I have to rely on brother Gengfu to help me."

"That's for sure..." Xia Shoutian nodded in agreement, thought for a while and then smiled: "Brother Zhangming, do you intend to serve as an official in the central government after the election? With Brother Zhangming's talents, I think it is more than enough to serve as the chief financial officer."

"Hahaha, how can I be the chief financial officer with my three-legged cat skills?" Fang Zida laughed dumbly and shook his head: "However, if I can contribute to the country at the appropriate time, I, Fang Zida, will not hesitate. In this current situation,

It’s better to take it slow.”

"Haha, it doesn't matter if it's slow or slow." Xia Shoutian nodded secretly and immediately started laughing. The two looked at each other and seemed to have reached an agreement. They understood each other tacitly, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.

After seeing off Xia Shoutian, Fang Zida touched the bank check in his pocket, with a meaningful smile on his lips. It seemed that a good show was about to begin.
