    "The third time, the third time!"

    "You can't get it back! You don't understand, you don't understand! For foreigners, what they lost was money, but what we lost was ten years of development time, the circulation contraction after losing half of the silver, and the complete failure of currency reform.  ! Do you still want to fight? We have been fighting for eight years! If we fight again, the country will be finished, it will be finished! No external input, no world capital! The only outcome of seclusion is the Qing Dynasty!"

    In the room, Lei Meng and Kuang Xukun were stunned by the louder roars. They didn't know what happened inside. When they saw Yang Qiu coming out, his face was cold, and they didn't dare to ask the reason.

    Bei Zuyi's face turned pale. He looked behind him and lowered his head and whispered: "Vice President, do you want to think about it again? In fact, what Minister Zhang said makes sense. The foreigners are obviously not doing it for money this time. They just want to borrow our money to change the currency."  The former circulation chaos took away a large amount of silver, causing a run and making it impossible for us to issue currency. Without currency, we cannot release purchasing power and the market, which will cause a tightening of circulation, thus suppressing our country's economy and development time We don't have many chips on hand.  , if you want to get your silver back, you can only choose coercive measures, which will lead to a complete withdrawal of foreign capital."

    "I know, and I know what they want!"

    Yang Qiu¡¯s eyes were cold and his heart was like a knife.  Zhang Wenjing can be said to be his first real comrade-in-arms since he came to this era. He has supported him unconditionally since he went to the 42nd bid. He even promoted him to the completely unfamiliar position of Minister of Finance without any complaints.  He has repeatedly exploited the patriotic sentiments of the people and worried that he would betray the national interests to cause dissatisfaction.

    This is not Zhang Wenjing¡¯s fault.  He was right, it was all his indulgence.  In addition to being at a loss in the early stages of the crisis, he later discovered that this was a big opportunity!  Therefore, pretending to be nervous about failure, arousing national public opinion and accelerating the seizure of private gold and silver, they found a good opportunity to find Yan Xishan and Kuang Jingyang, mobilize the two companies with the largest gold and silver stocks, and then use them to stimulate domestic gold and silver owners.  In the name of patriotism, a large-scale looting of domestic private gold and silver was completed.

    ¡°The central bank now has 8,000 tons of silver in its hands, and Hangel also has nearly 10,000 tons. More than half of the country¡¯s silver has been fixed.  All that needs to be done is to give foreign investors enough benefits in exchange for silver. Then the silver reserves can be doubled compared to before the crisis, which is equivalent to completing the currency reform in one step!

    The pain is unquestionable.  Because he once again fooled the people who followed him, and patriotism became a tool for political use!  Perhaps a few decades later, the people will find that they were fooled in this crisis, but by then the country's financial reforms have been completed and solidified, and they will do nothing more than bear the blame and infamythat's all.

    "You stay here to take care of Minister Zhang. Don't ask anything, don't say anything. He is not allowed to leave before I come back, and nothing happens to him!" He took one last look at the closed wooden door behind him and strode towards the door.  .

    After going out, Xu Xiujun and Cai Gongshi were already waiting outside the door, while Chen Haohui sat in the corner of the car without saying a word.  Cai Gongshi held a thick document under his folder.  He looked up at the window of the study on the second floor and said, "This is everything you want. Vice President, Wen Jing, he"

    "drive!"

    Yang Qiu¡¯s face was expressionless, making it difficult to see what was going on in his mind.

    The wheels slowly drove out of the gate, and the roar behind them gradually disappeared.  Only then did Cai Gongshi look away.  After opening the folder, he handed it to Yang Qiu: "This is the information you want. There are plans for 37 major projects in total. The Ningbo Port Hub is expected to invest 150 million, and it will take 6 years at the fastest. Huludao Deep Water Port and Shipbuilding  The plant project requires an investment of 250 million and the fastest time is 5 years. The Heilongjiang Refinery has a total investment of 65 million on a scale of one million tons, and it will take 5 years from completion to production. The renovation of the Zhanjiang Deep Water Port will cost 40 million and take 5 years. Keelung Port Expansion Project  , it will take 91 million for 5 years. The Songhua River Hydropower Plant will cost 120 million. 6 years. The two-way double track of the main longitudinal line from Baotou to Rehe in Fuzhou will cost 450 million and will take 8 years

    Some of the above projects are in the second five-year plan, and some are new plans according to your requirements. The total investment requires about 2 billion US dollars to complete them all!  The average construction time is about 5 years.  If investment starts in 2022, it will be completed in 27. Such projects require huge initial investment, and it will take 2 to 3 years to truly make a profit, which means that these projects will not be profitable until 10 years later.

    In the manufacturing industry, it is not recommended to give them shares. They can be allowed to start over and build on their own. Although the cycle is short, our country has insufficient workers. It will take about 5 years on average to achieve full operation.  There are also mines. This is relatively simple. As long as the strategic mines are not sold, you can choose to sign a full recovery agreement after selling other shares. No matter how short the time is, these ores will not flow abroad. It is just that the market will be subject to some restrictions, but we  If you have strategic mines, you won't be strangled to death.

    In addition, in terms of finance, as you mentioned, as long as the currency reform can be completed, a savings margin system can be established, foreign exchange, futures, stocks, trusts, insurance and bonds can all be decentralized, and a specialized financial institution can be established.??Foreign exchange, stock and bulk trading management departments must establish a market margin system and must keep margin treasury within the territory of our country, so that these industries can be gradually opened to them.  We estimate that it will take 2 years to complete all these reforms and legislation, butmonetary power is something that must be firmly grasped!  "

    These are the prices to be paid, all worth US$5 billion!  Equivalent to the total value of domestic manufacturing!  This is a relatively dangerous number, which tests the country¡¯s own innovation capabilities and development speed.  If it develops quickly, within 5 years they will be able to fully understand the technology contained in the Rhineland Plan and develop a batch of technologies in data machines. When they put it into production, their own high-end manufacturing industry will also start. Compared with the human resources and national sentiments, the quality of domestic products will be comparable.  Foreign capital not only cannot become a burden, but can also promote market competition.

    Yang Qiu closed the document and looked at Chen Haohui.  The latter nodded slightly: "Hangel, Morgan and the Rothschild family are all here."

    Xu Xiujun remained silent until everyone was silent before asking: "Vice President, why do you choose these large projects with extremely long construction periods? The impact and scale of these projects are not small, and they are open to foreign investment  I¡¯m afraid I¡¯ll get scolded.¡±

    "You will know." Yang Qiu did not answer.  He closed his eyes and said nothing, which made several people a little worried.

    When the motorcade rushed to the suburban villa, Hangel was also warmly entertaining the distinguished guests from Wall Street.

    Jacob has a typical Jewish slender face, brown hair, and is well-dressed with glasses. As the head of the Far East of the Rothschild family, he is the mastermind behind the silver crisis.  He has been following every move in the Far East since a long time ago.  After the outbreak of the European War, huge amounts of silver, foreign exchange and gold flowed into China. However, because Yang Qiu needed to attract these capital inflows to quickly expand himself, he delayed and did not carry out currency reform.  After making silver, gold, banknotes and even foreign exchange universal in the market, he understood that the opportunity had come.

    The clearer the lake, the less fish there will be, and only the turbidity can lurk.

    ??????????????????????? All that needs to be done now is to discuss the price Jacob blows off the coffee foam.  He glanced at the representative of Morgan next to him, the general manager of Citibank's Shanghai branch, Schumitcher, and then turned to ask Hangel: "Have you contacted Yang Qiu?"

    ¡°I¡¯ve been contacted and I believe he will arrive soon.¡±

    Both of them sat quietly. To outsiders, they looked more like scholars than greedy and snobbish capital tycoons.  But Hangel knew very well that this was the person who really stirred up the world, and the two families were both hostile to each other and had an inexplicable connection.

    Soon the servant brought news of Yang Qiu's arrival, but to Hangel's slight surprise, he was wearing a military uniform today.  "Is he really going to use the stupidest way to solve the problem?"

    "We meet again, Your Excellency Hangel." Yang Qiu's tone was polite but his expression was cold.  His eyes lingered on Hangel's face for a while and then turned to Jacob and Schumichel.

    Hangel was stunned for a moment and then introduced with enthusiasm: "Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Jacobs from the UK, and this is Mr. Schue Mitchell from Citibank Shanghai Branch."

    Yang Qiu nodded, took the prepared contract from Cai Gongshi and threw it on the table: "My work schedule is very tight, so I don't want to talk about any more nonsense. This is the industry you want to invest in. The total value is 2 billion US dollars. Manufacturing.  I will not sell any existing shares in the industry. You can choose your own location to set up factories. The mining shares are also stated on it. The insurance and financial industries you want need to give me two years to complete the currency reform. I promise two years.  These industries will be opened up after the year. In addition, I will also give you the right to know the central bank's banknote issuance and deposit reserve requirements. All of these add up to the equivalent of 5 billion US dollars.

    The condition is that all investments in China must be controlled by my country, with a total shareholding of 10%. These shares do not interfere with operations and are only used to supervise whether the construction is qualified and whether it violates local laws!  These are major projects that are related to the lives of our people. Therefore, once the investment has problems such as capital shortage and inability to operate for more than one year, our government will automatically have the right to increase its shareholding and redeem all shares!

    In addition, you also need to close all exchanges in China and take back all bank bonds you issued!  Return all the Chinese silver you control to me at the official price of 1:20. The required funds will be allocated from the land funds of these investments. If there is any balance, use RMB cash to pay.  "

    Hangel was stunned by the straightforward price. He thought that Yang Qiu would negotiate to lower the price, but he didn¡¯t expect that Yang Qiu almost agreed to all the conditions!  This made him feel bad. Based on his understanding of Yang Qiu, he shouldn't behave like this at all in this matter!  But after much thought, he couldn't figure out where the conspiracy was.  2 billion for infrastructure construction and about 2 billion for industrial investment, as well as about 1 billion for the opening of the financial market, which is almost equivalent to the entire manufacturing industry in his hands.The total value, or one-tenth of the total industrial and agricultural output value of the country, is already very terrible.

    What makes him so confident?  Did he really surrender completely?

    Hangel couldn't figure it out, and Jacob and Schumchel were also a little surprised, but the former pushed it over after reading all the documents: "You also need a central bank director qualification, and there is no need for the central bank to issue banknotes and deposit reserves.  The right to know, but the right to supervise!¡±

    "This is impossible!"

    Before Yang Qiu could speak, Xu Xiujun and Cai Gongshi behind him started shouting angrily. Bei Zuyi even said bluntly: "The supervisory power of the central bank is a symbol of a country's sovereignty! This point must never be transferred! I have given you the right to know.  Maximum concession, otherwise let¡¯s go to war! I don¡¯t believe that the American and British governments will be kidnapped by you!¡±

    Bei Zuyi¡¯s words made both of them frown, secretly noticing that the young man seemed to want to take note of his appearance.  The atmosphere suddenly became tense.  Unable to talk any more, Schumitcher said to ease the atmosphere: "Your Excellency, Vice President, you should know what this batch of silver means. Your country needs this silver, which can help you issue 2 billion in circulating currency. Paper currency is not  No one will collect gold or silver or wear it on their body. Even if you issue this money to the people, they will deposit it in banks or buy goods for circulation.

    You issue 2 billion.  In fact, there are 3 billion or more circulating funds that can be used for investment. If the current market circulation rate is increased by 10%, more money can be earned by increasing circulation.  Form a virtuous cycle.  On the contrary, if we do not take out this silver, it will mean that you have a huge bad debt of 2 billion, and the circulation will be greatly reduced.  "

    Bei Zu is young and energetic.  He shouted: "You don't need to come to class. Circulation is only temporary. Even if we abandon it, we can use other methods to increase it. So what if it is deflation? The whole world is deflating, and our country cannot escape this law, so  The pain is only temporary, and according to our country¡¯s economic data, it will take at most five years to recover.¡±

    "But there are not many 5 years in life to squander, right? Mr. Vice President. You should know that now is the post-war recovery period and will enter the growth period in five years. If you cannot develop the economy in these five years, then the world's commodities  After capital flows back to Asia, do you think your manufacturing industry can still sustain it? Of course, you have a way to learn from your neighbors. Completely close the country and marketThe consequence is that all foreign capital will leave.  The technology you need, the equipment you need will be far away, and you  will be isolated."

    "What does that matter? Are you the only ones who have mastered the technology? We" Bei Zuyi was about to fight, but was interrupted by Yang Qiu: "Your Excellency Hangel, I need to fight with  Mr. Jacobs, let¡¯s talk alone. Is that okay?¡±

    "Vice President, you?"

    "Go out, I know what's appropriate."

    Cai Gongshi was afraid that Yang Qiu would be persuaded to make greater concessions, but when he saw his cold eyes, he had to retreat first.  Hangel frowned and still felt something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it so he had to go out and wait with Schumichel.

    After everyone left, Yang Qiucai slowly took off his military cap and looked at Jacob.

    The two sharp eyes made even Jacob, who was used to seeing big shots, secretly frightened, and asked: "What does the Vice President want to talk about? I am not a soft-hearted person."

    Yang Qiu held his hat and waited quietly for him to finish, then said: "Please tell Lord Walter Rothschild that the Balfour Declaration is just a piece of toilet paper that can be trampled on and discarded at any time, and no country will abide by it!"

    Jacob thought he wanted to bargain, but he didn¡¯t expect that the topic of Zion would come up as soon as he opened his mouth!  His face suddenly changed, and he became gloomy. Even his voice became a bit colder. He tried hard to maintain his calmness and said, "Your Excellency, Vice President, I don't understand what you mean. Does this have anything to do with business negotiations?"

    "You want me to be more clear?" Yang Qiu sneered: "You have no friends, and you won't find them in the whole world!

    In Japan, you are called white ghosts!

    In the United States, West Point Military Academy students must be recommended by a senator before they can enter the school!

    In France, even the worst military school in Marseille will not allow Jews to enter!

    In Britain, you are just underground crawlers!

    In Germany, Jews in the Social Democratic Party are being assassinated!

    In Russia, the people you supported massacred 100,000 of your compatriots on the Don River!

    Do you want me to continue?  You have money, but you have no armed forces. Even the United States, the paradise you think of, restricts Jews from entering the military!  Restoring the country is simply a daydream!  No one or country will support you. Jerusalem is now a dirty toilet that others can trample on!  And I bet that revenge company you're hiding 100 combat groups are not satisfied!  "

    These words made Jacob unable to sit still. His body was visibly trembling. He pointed at Yang Qiu¡¯s nose and his tone was weaker than ever before: ¡°Who are you? Why do you know this?¡±

    Yang Qiu seemed not to have seen it, and continued to attack: "Angry? Angry? Is it hurting you?! Do you really think that by playing with the economy and making more money, you can control the world? Will you be able to restore the country? No! You will never do it!  Understand, this is an era when power is greater than money, and it is an era for rule makers like me! If you control half of our country¡¯s silver to create deflation and force our country¡¯s central bank to be unable to issue more banknotes and reduce market circulation, does it count as a win? No! I am  Rule maker, I can easily legislate to ban private and foreign gold and silver transactions across the country, prohibit all gold and silver from leaving, and gold and silver can only be sold to the central bank!

    As for war?  Let¡¯s take a look at public opinion outside. I¡¯m not afraid at all!

    Maybe you think deflation will cause social unrest, but I can tell you clearly that it will not!  Because this country is not a country where liberalism is rampant!  What's more, I have an army!  An army that can defeat the Japanese army, the German army, and Russia, and has the best tactics in the world!  Even the armies of powerful countries such as Britain, France and Germany hope to send military students to study.

    This is my capital!  Capital you can never come up with!

    I know that restoring the country is your highest dream, and you have sacrificed a lot for this!  So don¡¯t waste time. My last condition is to give you 500 military academy intern quotas every year so that you can form 500 combat teams every year. In ten years, you will have 5,000 combat teams and be able to form 2 complete combat teams.  Infantry division!  I promise to sell weapons and equipment when you need them.  But I also need to remind you that I will not admit the existence of these things. Whether you can succeed in the future has nothing to do with me or our country!  "

    Yang Qiu threw the prepared contract on the table: "Sign it, don't waste my time!"
