Beiyang reactionaries

These people are just politicians, and they will attach themselves to whoever is powerful.Now that Duan Xun has made his decision, what Wang Yitang and the others have to do is to get things done.And just like what Duan Xun said, if the management rights of Han Yeping Company can really be taken back, then these people who participated in the negotiations will be able to get out of the vortex of public opinion.No one will ever say that they are pro-Japanese factions and traitors.

As for how much Duan Xun paid for this, it is not their business.

If Duan Qirui hadn't stepped down, they would not have been favored by the new Beijing government, so how could they have defected to Duan Xun, a junior.When these people here were calling the shots in China's political arena, Duan Xun was still teaching in the military academy.

But the reality is like this.

The reality is that Duan Xun is currently a representative of the Anhui Clique, and outsiders have already claimed that Duan Xun is the leader of the thirteen provinces.They can only defect to Duan Xun.

"Then please Mr. Shingo. I hope to negotiate with the Japanese side as soon as possible and get the results as soon as possible. The sooner the better."

"Yes."

"That's all for today."

"it is good."

"Brother Yuebo (Wang Yinchuan), brother Lansheng (Lu Jintao), wait a minute. I have something I want to talk to you two."

241 Pro-Japanese Pie 2

Japanese faction.

These people who came today, regardless of whether they are big traitors or people who maintain integrity in the future, are all pro-Japanese at this stage.Each of them has a deep relationship with Japan.But these people are all talents, and they are all capable when they are released.

They defected to Duan Xun, which greatly supplemented Duan Xun's side.

Because they are not one or two people.They have worked for the Beijing government for many years, and have a large number of talents under their hands.Relying on fellow villagers, classmates, and students, a large number of people can be attracted to work here for Duan Xun.It's easy to form factions by accepting them all though.But now Duan Xun really needs these people.So Duan Xun can only do this first.

Such as Dong Kang.

Although Dong Kang was a well-known traitor in history, he is also a figure that must be mentioned in the history of modern Chinese law.Dong Kang returned to China at the end of the Qing Dynasty and began to participate in the revision of the laws of the Qing Dynasty.

Dong Kang deleted many severe punishments in the Qing law, and abolished Ling Chi, tattooing, and continuous sitting, etc., and wrote them into the "Reform of the Criminal System".In the "Controversy of Etiquette and Law", as one of the representatives of the Jurisprudence School, Dong Kangyi strongly advocated the separation of criminal law and etiquette, and became the most effective person in promoting the Westernized legal system and the most vehement rejection of etiquette.Dong Kang appealed several times that family rules, rural rules, including some tribal rules, should not override national laws.Because of these views, they have also been criticized by many scholars.

Not only the laws of the late Qing Dynasty, but most of the laws currently used in the Republic of China are written by Dong Kang. In 1914, Dong Kang and Zhang Zongxiang jointly compiled the "Temporary New Criminal Law" on the basis of the "Daqing Criminal Law". In 1915, he participated in the revision of the First Criminal Law Amendment. In 1918, Dong Kang presided over the revision of the "Second Criminal Law Amendment" together with Wang Chonghui as the president of the Law Revision Office of the Beiyang Government.The amendment was called "the most scientific, complete and progressive criminal code in the Republic of China."

There is also the prison management bill, which is also in charge of Dong Kang.Dong Kang translated all Japanese bills in this regard, and then referred to them to come up with China's prison management bill.These are groundbreaking in the legal history of China.

It can be seen that Dong Kang's legal strength.

Dong Kang not only participated in the revision of these laws, but also served as the chief justice, the chairman of the Central Senior Civilian Punishment Committee of the Beiyang Government, the chairman of the National Election Qualification Review Committee, the vice-chairman of the Law Editing Committee and the president of the Dali Yuan, the Legal System Editing curator and so on.He has also served as a law professor at several universities.

Therefore, Dong Kang is very familiar with the legal issues in China.

This time he went south to join Duan Xun, and Duan Xun appointed Dong Kang as the president of the Supreme Court under the Ministry of Justice of the Border Supervision Administration.Help Duan Xun to form a qualified court system.When Dong Kang went south, a large number of Dong Kang's former subordinates and his students came to Duan Xun's place together.

Quickly helped Duan Xun establish a court system.Although Dong Kang established Duan Xun's court system on his own, he can almost say his word in the court, and the important people are all his people.It is not conducive to Duan Xun's rule, but Duan Xun is still very happy.

Because without Dong Kang, it would be so easy to establish a formal court system.As for the formation of an interest relationship, that is still a matter of the future.

There are many such characters.

Duan Xun will not reject him because he is a famous traitor in history, he must use it as he should.After sending away most of the people, Duan Xun left two people behind, one is Chen Jintao and the other is Wang Yinchuan.

Because Duan Xun has important matters to discuss with them.

"Brother Lansheng (Chen Jintao), haven't you been worried about my financial situation just now?"

"Yes."

Chen Jintao nodded, not hiding his point of view.Chen Jintao is studying political economy, and he is not a pure nerd.Since returning to China, he has worked in various government departments. He served as the chief financial officer under Sun Yat-sen, and also served as the chief financial officer under Yuan Shikai and Duan Qirui.Very familiar with the domestic economic situation.

No matter how he looked at it, Duan Xun was unable to pay back the money.

Duan Xun even borrowed so much money that he couldn't afford to pay the interest. This was Chen Jintao's judgment on Duan Xun's financial situation.

"Brother Lansheng, you have also seen my financial situation. It is indeed not optimistic. Your judgment is very correct. To be honest, it is impossible for me to suddenly increase my financial income, because it does not meet the requirements. Economic law. Unless there is another war in Europe, it may be possible for us to make war fortune."

"So the general knows."

Chen Jintao became serious.

Chen Jintao thought that Duan Xun was just a reckless man from the army, and that Wang Yongjiang, whom Duan Xun relied on, was an idiot, that's why he borrowed money indiscriminately.Don't look at Duan Xun's reputation now, although some people criticize Duan Xun for being pro-Japanese, but not many people seriously say that Duan Xun is a traitor.It is completely different from the original public opinion criticizing Duan Qirui for being pro-Japanese.

Even though many people criticized Duan Xun for being pro-Japanese, they still spoke highly of Duan Xun.Duan Xun still has many positive comments in public opinion.

But what about a good reputation?

When Duan Xun can't pay back the money and loses all the minerals in the area under his control to those foreigners and banks, Duan Xun will immediately attract national infamy.It should be said that he will become a veritable traitor.

So Chen Jintao was very skeptical about his decision to defect to Duan Xun at first.

But looking at it now, Duan Xun is very clear about his financial situation.Now that Duan Xun knows, it will be much easier.Chen Jintao immediately said: "General, I have carefully studied the financial system of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou. On the whole, it is indeed more advanced than other provinces. The financial system of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou is to collect power from many places, and many intermediate links are missing. Greatly increase fiscal revenue. But even if the general completes financial reforms in other provinces, the annual fiscal revenue will increase by at most 2000 million to 3000 million. However, the general’s government affairs system is huge, and the number of staff is huge, and the required expenditure will also vary. Therefore, even if all the provinces under the general can complete financial reforms, it is still a drop in the bucket for the current huge debt. The best way for the general to overcome the financial difficulties is to activate private capital instead of making big ones Investment. For example, the construction of railways and steel plants requires a lot of investment and slow results. Otherwise, if these things are mixed together, the finances will definitely go bankrupt.”

Chen Jintao immediately suggested Duan Xun.

Now Duan Xun's finances have reached the point of collapse.At this time, Duan Xun should not make large-scale investments, such as railway construction, steel plant construction, and education investment.

The best way for Duan Xun now is to create a market for the development of private capital to increase tax revenue.Then pay back the money as soon as you have money, as long as you tighten your belt and work hard for a few years, you may be able to overcome the financial difficulties.

"I know."

Duan Xun nodded.

What Chen Jintao said is very correct.Although it hasn't been long since he defected to Duan Xun's side, he only knew about Duan Xun's financial situation for about half a month.But Chen Jintao's ability is really outstanding, and he immediately saw Duan Xun's problem.

Such a character turned out to be a big traitor in history, which is also a trick of good fortune.

If Chen Jintao's method is ordinary, it is indeed very qualified.But in this world of great controversy, Chen Jintao's approach is too passive.Especially now that the world has entered an industrial society, there is no time to recuperate.

"I can only make a risky move."

Chen Jintao really wanted to hear what Duan Xun could do.

He couldn't find a way at all, and the only suggestion was that Duan Xun should rest and recuperate.Duan Xun's financial collapse is imminent, and Chen Jintao can't get rid of Duan Xun no matter how he sees it.If Duan Xun does not choose to recuperate, he will continue to toss.Then it can only be like the Beijing government, tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.Choose to keep borrowing money from foreign countries to repay the debt.In the end, finance will be completely in the hands of foreigners, and the industry in Duan Xun's hands will also be completely in their hands.

"tariff."

"tariff?"

Chen Jintao was taken aback.

what is this?

Duan Xun is a border defense supervisor and a local warlord, and has nothing to do with tariffs.All the current tariffs in China are controlled by the British. Even if they are not controlled by the British, such tariffs should be controlled by the Beijing government and have nothing to do with Duan Xun.

"I want to take back the customs surplus. All customs customs surplus within my jurisdiction must be handed over to me."
