Chapter 60
The news brought by Fang Zida surprised and delighted Song Jiaoren. Once Fang Zida really became Yuan Shikai's son-in-law, the benefits would be obvious. However, Song Jiaoren was also worried about whether Fang Zida would fully invest in Beiyang in the future.
Over there? But this thought passed through his mind for a moment, and he quickly gave up this concern.
Fang Zida was able to find him immediately and tell him frankly, which is enough to show his attitude. Moreover, there are cases of intermarriage in politics. Not to mention Fang Zida, there were intermarriages among KMT members, Beiyang, and even Manchu nobles.
They abound and it's not a big deal at all.
Although Song Jiaoren, the prime minister, is far more practical than Zhao Bingjun, and his power is much greater than that of Zhao Bingjun. However, he also knows in his heart that the prime minister nominally controls the national government affairs, but he has no way to get involved in Beiyang, especially the military.
In China, President Yuan Shikai has the final say in everything. Now, the cooperation between the Prime Minister and the President is relatively tacit, and Yuan Shikai also expressed support for many tasks, but Song Jiaoren always feels that his hands are tied, no matter in terms of strength and influence.
, KMT cannot yet compete with Beiyang. If Fang Zida really becomes Yuan Shikai's son-in-law, this will be a good thing for KMT and Song Jiaoren.
After excitedly walking around the room for a few times, Song Jiaoren laughed and congratulated Fang Zida, and said that he would definitely attend the marriage as a witness in the future. Of course, Fang Zida happily agreed, and the two of them joked for a while.
It was already late, and Fang Zida's purpose of coming had been achieved, so he stood up and left.
After Fang Zida left, Song Jiaoren did not go to rest, but thought about the changes brought about by this incident. He sent someone to invite Liao Zhongkai, and Tang Shaoyi and others came over immediately, ready to discuss the changes brought about by this incident.
and future changes in government work.
Fang Zida didn't know this, but even if he knew it, he would just smile at most. No matter how noble or despicable a person is, as a politician, or a politician, he should seize all the conditions that can be used to create benefits for himself.
It makes no difference whether it is Yuan Shikai, Song Jiaoren or himself.
Ichiro Fujita's appointment is tomorrow. There is nothing to refer to in the news that came out on Wednesday in the past two days. Apart from wandering around Beijing, Ichiro Fujita spends the rest of his time with a few Japanese people at the Six Nations Hotel. Chapter 1
On the afternoon of the second day, Fang Zida changed his clothes and went to the Liuguo Hotel on time. When he arrived at the banquet hall, Ichiro Fujita, dressed in a suit, was already waiting eagerly.
"Fujita-kun, I didn't expect to see you again in Beijing."
"Deputy Commander Fang, oh, it will be General Manager Fang soon. Fujita came to visit without permission. Please forgive me. General Manager Fang is here today and Fujita is very grateful." Ichiro Fujita bowed respectfully and looked extremely polite.
.
"Haha, Mr. Fujita's information is really well-informed! However, I have not yet been appointed as the general manager, and besides, I have resigned from the military post now, not to mention the title of deputy division commander." Fang Zida further confirmed his guess in his heart.
, Little Japan is really pervasive. Although the matter about the central bank is not a secret, it only took a few days to reach Fujita's ears. It seems that this Little Japan is really caring about him.
Hearing what Fang Zida said, Fujita Ichiro smiled and nodded repeatedly. He half-curled his body and stretched out his hand to signal Fang Zida to enter, and personally led him into the banquet hall.
This reception was organized by the Japanese Embassy, and everyone in attendance was either diplomats from various countries stationed in Beijing or important officials of the government. Fang Zida followed Fujita inside, and even saw Liang Shiyi, Secretary-General of the Presidential Office, among the crowd, who was chatting and laughing with several diplomats.
He also saw Fang Zida who had just come in. The hand holding the wine glass froze slightly for an instant, and then he turned sideways and continued to laugh and chat with others as if he hadn't seen Fang Zida.
He was secretly amused. To be honest, Fang Zida and Liang Shiyi had no conflict at all, but because of Yang Du and Xia Shoutian, the two only had superficial interactions and usually had no friendship. Now, because of the Central Bank matter, Liang Shiyi is even more...
I mistakenly thought that Fang Zida was instigated by Yang Du to compete with him for power, and I already hated him so much that it was strange that he would look good when seeing Fang Zida.
Although Fang Zida's name has become "famous in the country" due to newspaper publicity, not many people have met him after all. Except for a few government officials who have met him once and nodded and smiled at him, the rest of them don't know him at all.
Who is it? Anyway, Fang Zida, who likes peace and quiet, walked directly to the side, took a glass of wine and drank by himself.
"Fang Sang, can I introduce you to a good friend?" Fujita joked with Fang Zida for a few words, glanced at the crowd, and then asked with a smile.
Smiling and nodding slightly, Fang Zida did not refuse. The purpose of his coming here was to see what these Japanese plans were for him.
Saying sorry, Fujita quickly walked to the other side, came to a middle-aged man in a kimono and whispered something. The middle-aged man turned his head and looked at Fang Zida, and suddenly smiled.
"Fang Sang, this is your party's old friend, Mr. Uchida Ryohei."
"Uchida Ryohei?" Fang Zida was stunned. Uchida Ryohei is not only the famous president of the Black Dragon Club, but also one of the notorious spy chiefs alongside Touyama Mitsuru. When did he come to Beijing? How come he doesn't know any news?
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him who had gray hair on his temples but was still energetic, Fang Zida suppressed the shock in his heart, smiled and stretched out his hand: "It turns out to be Uchida-senpai, whom I have admired for a long time. It was thanks to the efforts of my senior that we had the alliance.
It was not until the founding of the Republic of China that the success of the revolution and the establishment of the Republic of China were achieved thanks to Mr.’s guidance! The younger generation has been admiring the names of their predecessors for a long time.”
Instead of bowing like the usual Japanese, Uchida Ryohei held Fang Zida's hand in a very Western-style manner, and said with a friendly smile: "This is what Ryohei should do. China and Japan are separated by a narrow strip of water and have been friendly for generations. It's nothing to do with a mere meager effort."
Hanging teeth."
"It's weird that I believe you!" Fang Zida cursed in his stomach, but the smile on his face became even bigger, and the words of admiration in his mouth were even more gushing. Hearing this, Ichiro Fujita laughed like a flower.
"Fang Sang is a new star in your party. He has emerged in recent months and has become a blockbuster. Lianghei has also heard of Fang Sang's name in Japan. He sincerely sighs that another new star has appeared. He is extremely happy. I think that with Fang Sang, your country will be more prosperous in the future.
The country will surely rise again. China and Japan will join hands and support each other to jointly build the Asian order and create a new Greater Asia to stand firm in the Eastern world."
Uchida Ryohei is very talkative, and his smile is always very sincere. People who don't know his background may really be fooled by his rhetoric. However, Fang Zida's ears are like hearing dog farts.
He didn't take it to heart at all. But on the surface, Fang Zida still did a good job, speaking politely, and his expression deliberately showed unconcealable admiration and a bit of pride.
Uchida Ryohei saw Fang Zida's reactions one by one, and the smile on his face became even bigger. After a brief conversation, Uchida Ryohei suggested that it was a bit noisy here, and asked Fang Zida to go and chat.
"Here comes the drama." Fang Zida knew it well, and of course he would not refuse. Ichiro Fujita immediately led the way, and he and Ryohei Uchida went to the cigar room next door.
"I heard that Fang Sang loves to smoke cigars after returning from abroad. This is a Cuban cigar given to me by a friend. Please try it." After sitting down inside, Uchida Ryohei clapped his hands, and a waiter came in with an exquisite mahogany box.
Open the box and inside you will find a bunch of fine Cuban cigars.
"This is a good thing. It is rare in China! I didn't expect Senior Uchida to be a similar person." Fang Zida's eyes lit up, he picked one up and played with it, and said with a smile.
"Haha, I don't understand this stuff, Fang Sang, please."
Skillfully trimming, cutting, smoking, lighting with a match, a strong aroma of smoke suddenly filled his mouth. Fang Zida picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, letting the wine and smoke flavors fully mix together in his mouth, and couldn't help but nod.
Liked it.
After talking some useless nonsense, Uchida Ryohei finally couldn't hold it in anymore and took the initiative to talk about Fang Zida's matter about the central bank.
"We haven't finished the work of the General Office yet. This central bank is just an idea. I don't know whether it can be established. Isn't it too early for Uchida-senpai to talk to me about this now?"
Uchida Ryohei smiled and said: "It's not too early or not. According to Ryohei's information, it is almost certain that Fang Sang will be appointed as the general manager of your country's central bank."
"Nine times out of ten? Why don't I know?" Fang Zida said in surprise.
"Hahaha, Fang Sang, do you still want to hide it from me about the President's marriage? You have become President Yuan's son-in-law. Can the General Office of the Central Bank be someone else?" Uchida Ryohei laughed, like an old friend.
He patted Fang Zida on the shoulder, looking extremely enthusiastic.
Fang Zida also laughed, shaking his head while laughing: "I just said that Mr. Fujita is well-informed, but I didn't expect that Mr. Uchida is even more insightful!"
After laughing behind him, Fang Zida looked at Uchida Ryohei with a special look: "Senior, we will discuss the matter of the central bank later. There is something that I have not understood for a long time. I wonder if it can be clarified?"
Uchida Ryohei was stunned for a moment, looked at Ichiro Fujita next to him, and suddenly smiled: "Fang Sang, do you want to ask why Fujita told you about Chen Qimei's whereabouts in the first place?"
Seeing Fang Zida nodding in recognition, Uchida Ryohei said seriously: "Actually, this matter is very simple to say. I think Fang Sang knows about my friendship with Sun Sang. In my opinion, I don't agree with Sun Sang's so-called second revolution. At the beginning,
When I was in Japan, I tried my best to persuade Sun Sang, but unfortunately he was determined and decided to start an uprising, but ultimately failed. When the Tongmenghui was established, Lianghei could be said to be one of them. Now the KMT and the Revolutionary Party are divided into two factions, each other
Liangping felt very sorry for the fight. Your country finally succeeded in the revolution and established the Republic of China. Why can't everyone work hard for the same ideal? We are all comrades and friends. What's wrong with sitting down and talking about some things? It's a pity.
Ah, what a pity... I said that China and Japan are separated by a strip of water and have had diplomatic relations for thousands of years. They should work together to prosper and coexist. However, there is civil strife in your country. How can I, as a lover of China, stand by and watch?"
