Not to mention the revolutionary party, everyone is still in a good mood.
Samples of minted coins have also been seen. According to Fang Zida's estimate, one billion one-yuan silver coins will be minted in 1914. If auxiliary coins are included, the total will be as high as three billion, with a total coin value of more than 1.3 billion yuan. Moreover, according to the plan,
, in the next three years from 1914 to 1916, the mint circulation will exceed 5 billion yuan, and by around 1917, the total circulation will exceed 10 billion yuan.
This is a huge number. Not to mention the significance of coinage as a national currency. From the income from coinage alone, the central government can generate more than one billion yuan in revenue out of thin air. Coupled with the exchange of private silver coins,
The differential income generated from silver coins, copper coins, etc. can bring in at least 1.5 billion yuan more revenue to the central government, which is a huge benefit to the extremely poor Ministry of Finance.
What's more, Fang Zida's central bank is not just about minting coins, but will also carry out other businesses one after another. Although Song Jiaoren himself doesn't know much about financial operations, Tang Shaoyi's eyes lit up when he saw that he was here, and he looked excited.
Song Jiaoren was completely relieved.
It can be said that this conversation was held in a harmonious, friendly and warm atmosphere. Song Jiaoren, as Prime Minister, and Tang Shaoyi, as Chief Financial Officer, both expressed satisfaction with Fang Zida's work and expressed their attitude, complete approval and support.
He restructured the entire central bank. In addition, Song Jiaoren also put forward his own views and plans on issues such as legislation, the Ministry of National Defense, the construction of the National Defense Forces, the adjustment of the Central Military Academy, the separation of local military and political affairs, and education, and solicited everyone's opinions.
This conversation lasted for a long time, and it was already midnight when we left. Beijing was very deserted at night at this time, so he refused Song Jiaoren’s kindness in sending him a car. Anyway, he lived not far away, so Fang Zida simply walked back and was just getting ready when he arrived at his home.
Knocking on the door, I suddenly saw a dark figure jumping out from the corner.
"Who!" Fang Zida's heart tightened, and he reached out to hold the pistol hidden under his arm and turned around.
"It's our Mr. Fang." A familiar voice came. Looking closely under the moonlight, he found that this person was actually Zhou'er.
"What's going on? What are you doing hiding aside in the middle of the night?" Fang Zida asked with a frown as he released the handle of the gun.
"Mr. Fang, let's talk." Zhou'er looked around and saw that there was no third person in the alley except them, and whispered in a low voice.
Fang Zida followed Zhou Er to a secluded corner, and the two talked softly for a few minutes. No one knew what they said, let alone why Zhou Er did not enter the house at midnight but hid outside the door waiting for Fang Zida.
What was the reason? But when Fang Zida walked home again, his face became extremely solemn.
With the sound of firecrackers, the Spring Festival finally arrived. For several days, Fang Zida was busy visiting relatives and friends, and did not rest until the fifth day of the lunar month. He had a day off on the sixth day of the lunar month, and on the seventh day of the lunar month, which is February 1, Fang Zida will leave Beijing.
Go south.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year before leaving Beijing, Fang Zida made a special trip to the Liuguo Hotel and found Ichiro Fujita who lived there.
"Happy New Year, Fang Sang!" There is also a New Year in Japan. Ichiro Fujita, wearing a brand new kimono, smiling and imitating the Chinese people, raised his hands to greet the New Year.
"Fujita-kun, Happy New Year!" Fang Zida cupped his hands, forced a smile, took off his coat and sat down on the sofa.
Knowing that Fang Zida likes to drink coffee, Fujita Ichiro specially made a pot of coffee and asked: "Fang Sang, is there any good news for you today?"
Instead of getting the coffee specially brought to him, Fang Zida smoked a cigar and leaned on the sofa, squinting at Fujita and sneered: "Good news? Humph!"
Fujita was stunned and asked with some confusion: "What's wrong, Fang Sang? Your face seems a little..."
"Pa!" He slapped the table with a heavy palm, causing the cup full of coffee to overturn and spill on the floor. Fang Zida suddenly yelled: "What's going on with you Japanese? Ah! Do you still want to cooperate? Yes."
I helped do this and that, stabbing me in the back, what do you mean!"
The frightened Fujita looked at the furious Fang Zida at a loss, not understanding what happened. He quickly bowed and apologized, and asked confusedly what happened.
"What? You still have the nerve to ask me?" Fang Zida's saliva almost sprayed onto Ichiro Fujita's face, and the veins on his neck were pulsing, looking extremely angry. Fujita hurriedly comforted him for a long time, and then Fang Zida gradually calmed down.
Tell what happened.
According to Fang Zida, Japan's financial support has been of great help to the central bank. As general manager, Fang Zida is very grateful to Japanese friends for their selfless assistance. He has also reported privately to Prime Minister Song Jiaoren and President Yuan Shikai, proposing an agreement with Japan
However, this plan is too big, and it will be difficult for Congress to pass it. The government did not get approval immediately, but considering Japan’s help, cooperation with Japan can be carried out on a small scale.
Let’s see the effect and, if feasible, consider launching full cooperation directly with Congress’ approval.
"Isn't this a good thing? Why are you so angry, Fang Sang?" Fujita was happy when he heard this, but felt strange at the same time.
"It's not you Japanese who have caused this!" Fang Zida glared and cursed: "Originally, everything was settled, but now it's all gone!"
"Ah! How could it be yellow?" Fujita suddenly became anxious.
Fang Zida spread his hands and said something immediately. After hearing this, Fujita Ichiro became anxious and angry. He also jumped up and cursed "Baga"
Fang Zida told him that everything was going smoothly, but news came a few days ago that Sun Wen had launched another revolution to subvert state power in Japan. He was going to launch a law-protection movement, and there were people from the Japanese government and consortium behind it.
Shadow support. President Yuan Da was so angry when he heard the news that he threw his cup. He immediately said that the Japanese were trying to do business with one family and that they wanted to get benefits from the government and Sun Wen.
, completely devoid of sincerity. Not only that, the angry President Yuan simply vetoed the cooperation matter that had been settled, and summoned Fang Zida to scold him.
"Hey! You Japanese people are so ungrateful." Fang Zida shook his head, took out a check from his pocket and placed it on the table. He pointed with his fingers and said: "This is the money you borrowed from me. Now I have someone on my side."
It’s all returned. Fujita-kun, please accept it.”
Fujita Ichiro hurriedly pushed back the check. How could he dare to accept it? If he really accepted the money, wouldn't it mean that the plan had completely failed? Wasn't it just to win over Fang Zida and obtain the interests of Northeast China that he spent so much money?
If he accepts this money today, he will be ordered to have a caesarean section by Ryohei Uchida when he returns to Japan.
"Fang Sang, if you have anything to say, things are easy to discuss." He took out his handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat. He even refused to accept the check even after beating Ichiro Fujita to death. He cursed in his heart which guy in Japan was so blind that he still sponsored Sun Dapao.
Funding, isn’t this just making trouble?
"What's there to say? It's natural to pay back debts. I'll pay you back the money today. From now on, whether you find someone else or continue to support Sun Wen, it has nothing to do with me. Haha, that's fine. Someone on our side is happy.
Relax, just do your own thing, you Japanese have nothing to do with me." Fang Zida stood up with his coat, and it seemed that he was about to leave. Ichiro Fujita was so anxious that he pulled and persuaded him, and finally stopped Fang Zida.
"Fang Sang, I, Fujita, assure you that this matter is definitely not the intention of our Japanese government, let alone Mr. Uchida. Regarding Sun Wen's matter, I will report to Tokyo and I will definitely give you a reasonable explanation."
"Explanation? Do you think it is useful to explain now that things have happened?" Fang Zida rolled his eyes and asked.
Ichiro Fujita thought for a while and gritted his teeth and said: "Would this work? I will propose to Tokyo to freeze all Sun Wen's funds in the Bank of Japan so that he will no longer be able to go against your government."
"Freeze funds? Haha, Sun Wen is not alone in Japan." Fang Zida sneered, seemingly dissatisfied with the answer.
"We can still imprison him!" Ichiro Fujita said urgently.
"Imprisonment?" Fang Zida said in surprise: "Don't talk nonsense about this matter. If you are not afraid if word gets out, I will be afraid of the impact."
"It doesn't matter. If you don't imprison him in the mainland, you can find an excuse to let Sun Wen go to Taiwan. When he gets there, you can restrict him from leaving. In this way, nothing will happen."
Fang Zida seemed a little tempted by this suggestion and nodded slightly: "This is a good idea. Put this biting mad dog in a cage. Not bad, not bad!"
"Then Fang Sang, please continue to cooperate with us!" Ichiro Fujita was overjoyed when he saw Fang Zida softening his tone and quickly requested.
"Hey, cooperation is not impossible, but if you want to cooperate after this happened, it will be difficult to find this opportunity. Mr. Fujita, you also know how much effort I spent in convincing President Yuan and Premier Song. Once this happened
It's like all your previous efforts have been wasted! If you bring up the old thing again, you have to at least wait until the Sun Wen incident has cooled down, and then slowly look for opportunities, do you understand?"
"Hi! I understand!" Fujita nodded repeatedly, picked up Fang Zida's check with both hands and handed it back respectfully: "Fang Sang, please keep this."
"Forget it, I don't need the money at the Central Bank. I took it with kindness, so I'll pay you back." Fang Zida waved his hand and said angrily.
"No, no, no, Fang Sang, you must accept it!" Fujita was about to burst into tears. If Fang Zida really paid back the money, only Amaterasu would know if his promise would be fulfilled that day. No matter what happened to the money,
Asking him to accept it, seeing Fang Zida repeatedly giving in, Fujita became cruel and quickly ran back to the bedroom to take out a check, put it together with Fang Zida's original check, and told him very sincerely that this was another payment he had originally agreed to.
For the sake of Sino-Japanese friendship, I would like to ask General Manager Fang to accept this sum of money no matter what.
In the end, Fang Zida, who couldn't refuse it, "helplessly" accepted the two checks. While putting the checks in his arms, he shook his head and sighed, looking extremely reluctant. However, Fujita Ichiro felt a huge stone fall in his heart and felt relieved.
tone, showing a happy smile
