Chapter 301: Fang Zida's Decision
Seeing Liao Zhongkai's confused look, Fang Zida sighed secretly. From the other party's words, Fang Zida already understood Song Jiaoren's thoughts. Although it was slightly different from what he expected, it was basically the same. It was a great achievement.
Lord, China's powerful ministers have been like this since ancient times, and none of them ended up well. Although Song Jiaoren was the first person to implement constitutional government in China, he cannot escape the influence of thousands of years of traditional culture. After being in high positions for so many years, maybe
He himself didn't know that the ideas in his heart had begun to gradually change, which was the real reason why one dynasty replaced another in China's feudal society, and the cycle continued until the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Liao Zhongkai is too trusting. Does he really think that what Song Jiaoren said to him is the real reason? But this is no longer important. Through Liao Zhongkai's narration, Fang Zida has been confirmed in his heart. In this case, he cannot retreat.
, must protect themselves. Once suppressed, Song Jiaoren is likely to slip in another direction. What is even more frightening is that he firmly believes that this is the right path, just like Yuan Shikai confidently proclaimed himself emperor in the original history.
"Zhang Ming, tell me the truth, is what Dunchu said true?" Liao Zhongkai asked sincerely, looking at him, Fang Zida didn't want to lie to him, so he nodded straightforwardly.
"What! It's all true!" Liao Zhongkai was immediately angry and anxious. He stood up and pointed at Fang Zida and angrily shouted: "You... Fang Zhangming! You have disappointed me so much. How could you be like this! I said this about you from a young age.
You are using your power to seek personal gain for yourself. From a broad perspective, you are betraying the country! How could you become like this? You..."
"Brother Zhongkai, don't get excited, sit down first, sit down and talk slowly..."
"I won't sit!" Liao Zhongkai waved his hand fiercely and yelled with an angry look on his face: "Do you know what the consequences of doing this will be? After several years of hard work, the country has finally embarked on the road of development, but if you don't do it, you will destroy it.
What Song Dunchu said is absolutely correct. If this continues, this country will not be a country!"
"Haha, is this really the case?" Fang Zida was not angry at all, but asked with a sneer.
"Isn't it?" Liao Zhongkai replied, eyes wide with anger.
Looking at Liao Zhongkai's appearance, Fang Zida laughed. He shook his head and sighed: "The Duke of Zhou was afraid of the day of rumors, and Wang Mang was a humble corporal. If he had died that year, who would know the truth of his life? Brother Zhongkai, some things are not as simple as they appear.
You and I have known each other for many years, and you should know what kind of person I, Fang Zida, am. When it comes to money, I, Fang Zida, am not bragging. It is more than enough for me to become the richest man in business with my ability. You also know that I had quite a fortune in Europe before I returned to China.
Industry. After the war broke out in Europe, my partners moved the company to the United States. Now the company has developed very well in the past few years. It is also a medium-sized consortium in the United States. Not to mention the company's capital, even if the annual profit is enough for me in this life or even for the rest of my life.
My children and grandchildren live the most luxurious life, how can I go out of my way to poach the country for some small money? I, Fang Zida, have never seen money so blindly, have I?"
Liao Zhongkai was stunned after hearing this, and then thought about it. It was indeed the case. It was well known that Fang Zida was rich. After Yuan Shikai passed away, the Yuan family did not have much property left, and Fang Zida was almost solely responsible for the entire Yuan family's expenses. And as kmt
Director. Fang Zida’s annual donations to the party far exceed those of others. Although Fang Zida strives to promote the development of domestic industry and commerce, in fact he does not directly intervene in industry and commerce, and people from the Fang family and the Yuan family do not take advantage of this opportunity to do anything.
Instead of building factories and doing business, we put all our major investments abroad to avoid competition with weak national enterprises and try our best to develop domestic industry and commerce in a healthy manner.
Furthermore, Fang Zida is usually very frugal. Apart from his love of smoking imported cigars, I have never heard of him having any extravagant hobbies. He is a loving couple. He lives a happy life. Even the clothes he wears are ordinary. At most, they only use materials.
It's just that the workmanship is slightly better, and these are the most normal for Fang Zida. To say that Fang Zida regards money as life is simply unreasonable. With his current status, rights and abilities, it is impossible to make money through his authority.
It's a piece of cake, but he has sat as the president of the Central Bank for so many years and has served as the finance minister for the past two years, but he has never reached out to the public once.
This contradictory contrast made Liao Zhongkai gradually calm down. After careful reflection, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. It stands to reason that Fang Zida is indeed not a money-grubbing person, but he did not deny Song Jiaoren's words. What exactly is this?
What is it?
He raised his hand and gently put it on Liao Zhongkai's shoulder, motioning him to sit down. After Liao Zhongkai subconsciously sat back down, Fang Zida slowly said again: "As for the Russian matter, because it is related to the overall situation, it is not Zida's fault.
It needs to be kept secret, but this matter is extremely important. Once it gets out, it will cause waves. To be honest, there is no other person besides me who knows the whole plan. Since Brother Zhongkai asked about it today, Zida will just take care of it.
Let me tell you, but Brother Zhongkai must guarantee that what I said today came from my mouth and your ears. Don’t mention it again until I leave this room. If Brother Zhongkai really can’t guarantee it, Zida will never say half a word.
.”
Liao Zhongkai looked at Fang Zida with a complicated expression, trying to read something on his face, but in the end he found nothing. After thinking about it quietly, Liao Zhongkai nodded resolutely and said: "Okay! I promise not to mention it to a third person,
You tell me."
"Okay! I believe brother Zhong Kai!"
Liao Zhongkai was a well-known gentleman, so of course Fang Zida could trust his guarantee, and he immediately talked about financial and Russian arrangements. This lasted for more than two hours, and it was not until midnight that Fang Zida finished talking. When he learned the cause and effect
After making the overall plan with Fang Zida, Liao Zhongkai was so shocked that his eyes almost dropped. He never expected that Fang Zida was playing such a big game, thinking so deeply and thinking so far. Over the years, Liao Zhongkai
Zhong Kai always thought that as an important government official, as long as he was dedicated to the people, was impartial in his work, and dedicated himself to his work, he would be a good official worthy of the people and the country. But he never expected that what Fang Zida thought was completely different from him. His overall situation
Liao Zhongkai's sense of touch and layout ability are simply unmatched. While Liao Zhongkai only focused on the present and considered domestic people's livelihood and some trivial matters, Fang Zida had already thought about what would happen a few years or even more than ten years later.
Those who do not plan for the overall situation cannot plan for a region, and those who do not plan for the eternity cannot plan for a moment.
Of course Liao Zhongkai knew this, but he only fully understood its true meaning today. Compared with Fang Zida, he even felt ashamed, and he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
"Zhang Ming, although these are good things, you are too reckless. How could such a misunderstanding arise if you had a careful discussion with Dunchu?" Liao Zhongkai felt that he could not stand idly by and must let Song Jiaoren understand Fang Zida's intentions.
The intention is that otherwise the country and KMT will lose in a fight between dragons and tigers.
Fang Zida smiled disapprovingly: "Brother Zhongkai, I have already told Dunchu what I can say, and of course I won't say what I can't. As for why, you should know. If Dunchu can trust me, no matter what I, Fang Zida, do
He will give his full support, but once he cannot believe what I say, some of my words will be in vain, and may even be counterproductive."
"Are you talking about fleeing him...?" Liao Zhongkai is a gentleman, not a fool. As soon as Fang Zida reminded him, he immediately understood. After recalling Song Jiaoren's change in attitude towards Fang Zida, he felt a bad
Thoughts came to him spontaneously, and his face suddenly changed.
"What does Dunchu think and do? We are all not blind. How can we see clearly in our hearts? In fact, after Brother Zhongkai explained what he just said, I fully understood. Song Dunchu was not doing this for these reasons.
, but he just wants to use these as excuses. Since he wants to target me and oust me, how can he convince the public without reasons and excuses? Haha, it’s just a pity, a pity, he is too confident, thinking that I, Fang Zida, is a fool.
Is the Bodhisattva so easy to manipulate?"
"Zhang Ming, don't act nonsense. Dunchu treats you well. Let's not talk about our friendship over the years. Besides, we are all comrades in the party. There are some things I think we should sit down and talk about." I heard Fang Zida's words.
Feeling like gunpowder, Liao Zhongkai urged him eagerly.
Fang Zida shook his head and said: "If he can do the first grade of junior high school, I can do the fifteenth grade. I, Fang Zida, was not the first to attack with Zhang Jian, Duan Zhigui, Cai Yuanpei and others. He used my reserve plan to reduce the most elite national defense force. Do I still want to do it?"
Don’t you know his intentions? I originally put my heart in the moonlight, but the moonlight shines in the ditch... I, Fang Zida, admit that I have never felt sorry for him in the slightest since I became an official. I have tried my best to help him over the years. I cannot say that dedicating myself to my heart can be regarded as hard work, but what about him now?
To me? Brother Zhong Kai, you are called a gentleman, please comment and tell the truth, who is right and who is wrong in this matter?"
Liao Zhongkai's livid face was a little embarrassed, and he kept silent for a long time. To be honest, it was Song Jiaoren who felt sorry for Fang Zida and provoked the trouble in the first place. No wonder Fang Zida fought back. But he couldn't say this directly. Song Jiaoren was
The party leader of KMT is definitely not his old friend. This is still a conflict among the people. Why can't the two eliminate the misunderstanding and move forward together?
Although he didn't get a reply from Liao Zhongkai, Fang Zida had already seen the answer.
With a slight smile, Fang Zida picked up the cigar that was put aside and took a puff. He looked at Liao Zhongkai and waved his hands and said: "There is no need to investigate what is right or wrong today, so as not to embarrass Brother Zhongkai. However, Zida also asked Brother Zhongkai to take a closer look at this matter.
Ten thousand……."
"Don't worry, I will never tell anyone about this!" Liao Zhongkai understood what Fang Zida meant and promised again in person.
"good!"
Fang Zida thought for a moment and then said: "There is one more thing. Since we have reached this point today, let's talk about it with Brother Zhong Kai."
"Zhang Ming, please tell me."
"There will be re-elections within the party at the end of the year. As a director of kmt, I decided to compete for the position of chairman in this re-election."
