William II angrily threw away the newspaper and became furious.
Aside glogini hurriedly picked it up and carefully watched it again. schlieffen, Dietrich and others also gathered around to see how the positions were so angry.
A long time ago, William II just shouted, "Don’t lend, don’t lend, they don’t lend, we will go to the Americans! I don’t believe that Americans don’t even want to buy and sell! "
Glockini hurriedly said, "It’s reasonable to calm down …"
William II frowned drink a way "glogini how understandable? This Zhang Yi is knocking at our bone marrow. All funds are spent on buying China merchants and adding high interest in the future. When will we be clean all these years? I think this is simply the Chinese tiger Wu Peifu playing a double reed for the old man! "
Glochini sink a way: "First of all, the amount of 500 million pounds is too large, which has accounted for a quarter of the annual GDP of the Republic of China. The transfer of the Ministry from the Republic of China has a great impact on the economic operation of the Republic of China, which will seriously affect the economic operation of the Republic of China. Only when we feed back the funds can we reduce the impact. This is also a necessity for the Chinese tiger; Second, we have no other way to borrow money except for the roots of China and the Republic of China. None of our allies are rich. Which one can make us have so much money? We will be lucky if we are not allowed to subsidize them. The only possibility is that the United States is not very harmonious, far from being as deep as Britain, France, Russia and the United States. Britain and France can affect the American government and make them absolutely refuse to lend us money, so we will be too passive. The third European war needs too many materials, especially arms, and it is difficult for other countries to meet our war needs. The Republic of China can meet us. Fourth, even if other countries want to sell us all kinds of materials, the British will have to agree to it in wartime. The British fleet will definitely block the Atlantic Ocean. Which country can afford their enemy fleet? It’s the worst luck if we don’t receive the goods after paying the money! There are Chinese Republic of China and Chinese Republic of China, and the British fleet can cruise the Atlantic Ocean back and forth to send all kinds of materials to Germany! In the great war, we also have the goods of China and the Republic of China, which is the most insurance. The requirement of the Chinese tiger is equivalent to giving us an insurance for the future transportation line! You can definitely piss off Britain, France and Russia! This is a steady business! "
Glochini told William II the reasons one by one, and William II gradually calmed down. It seems that he was really a little impatient this time when he came to Glochini and said it exactly.
William II asked, "Glochini, is the Chinese tiger really kind this time?"
Glochini replied, "Kindness is not what you said. Only in this way can their interests in the Republic of China be maximized, and both of us just get what we need. We get urgently needed materials and will not be short of money in the future war." They will make a lot of money from it, and they can make some profits in a blink of an eye with a loan of 500 million pounds. It’s hard to imagine that Zhang Yi, a soldier, and a black-hearted profiteer can make the abacus so loud! "
William II, hey, gritted his teeth. "Well, in that case, let’s talk about the loan as soon as possible, and then call Hollweg and order him to leave for the Republic of China immediately. It is necessary to bring the loan back as soon as possible!"
Glochini nodded yes.
Aside schlieffen replied, "It’s not enough to pursue this. Our military must once again send representatives to the Republic of China to purchase weapons and ammunition, as well as food. We are running out of time. We must prepare all materials before the end of the year. At the very least, we must prepare enough combat readiness materials to support one year! At the latest, the year after next, I think we are going to wage war … "
William II frowned and replied, "The year after next? Will war be launched the year after next? "
Schlieffen nodded and replied, "Yes, the morale of our army, especially the army, has been encouraged to the peak. We can’t breathe. If we delay for too long, the morale of the soldiers will never last forever. I think the year after next is the best time for us to wage war!"
"Well, in this case, let’s do it, General Mao Qi. Who do you think is more appropriate to send to the Republic of China to preside over military trade negotiations?"
Xiao Maoqi thought for a moment and replied, "I think the most suitable candidate is General Hutil. He has visited the Republic of China twice in the military service and in charge of the logistics department. The senior generals of the Republic of China are good, but it is better for the Republic of China to communicate with others. I transferred some forces from the Navy Department of the General Staff to form a negotiating team to go to China together!"
William II replied, "Well, then let Hollweg delay the departure for one day. General Mao Qi immediately set out to select the personnel and meet Glochini in Hamburg Hollweg as soon as they arrive. I don’t trust you to go to only one Hollweg this time!"
Chapter one hundred and thirty-two Huge contracts
Beijing train
Tang Shaoyi led Yang Du, Liang Dunyan, Tsai Shou Kee and other cabinet officials to wait quietly for the train to enter.
Roaring whistle thought that a special train drove in slowly and steadily, and then went to Tianjin to meet Liang Cheng and accompanied Hollweg and other people from the train.
Tang Shaoyi quickly stepped forward and stretched out his arm. "Dear Prime Minister Hollweg, welcome to China!"
Hollweg held out his hand and Tang Shaoyi shook hands and laughed. "It’s a shame for Premier Tang Shaoyi to bother you for a long time!"
Hollweg then introduced the people behind him to Tang Shaoyi, and people such as Glochini and Hutier also met Tang Shaoyi one by one and greeted each other.
Then everyone boarded the waiting car and returned to the government.
Just entering the living room of the Council, Hollweg couldn’t wait to ask Tang Shaoyi for loan negotiations. Now William II is in a hurry. William II has sent no less than 20 newspapers to Hollweg almost every day.
Tang Shaoyi nodded and agreed to organize a German delegation to discuss the loan in the afternoon.
When it comes to national interests, no one is willing to give in easily, especially when China and the Republic of China have taken the initiative. Strange goods are naturally demanding, and Holfve, Gegelo and Gini are arguing hard, even their faces have turned red.
After two days of argument, the Republic of China in Germany finally reached the "Sino-German Loan Contract" on the loan issue.
1. The loan of 37 RMB from Germany to the Republic of China was paid by Fengtian Bank, Shanghai Bank and China Construction Bank in four installments, and the first loan of 1 billion RMB was paid from the signing date of the contract, and the remaining amount was paid 900 million RMB annually;
2. All loans obtained by Germany must be purchased from the producers of the Republic of China, and the Republic of China must trade with the two countries at the international average price;
3. The repayment period of the sub-loan is 30 years with an annual interest rate of 3%.
4. The German government pledged the shares of Fengtian and Heilongjiang coal, steel and petroleum industries, and once the loan is repaid as scheduled, all the shares in the German enterprises will be recovered.
5. Once the German government encounters economic difficulties in the Great War, it can reserve further loans to the Republic of China. All conditions are subject to this contract.
……
The loan contract has been signed, and Hollweg finally breathed a sigh of relief and finally completed the most important thing. Next, it depends on the negotiation of the trade agreement between the two governments.
Compared with the loan contract, the trade agreement is more complicated, and it also needs to calculate the quantity of various materials in detail and the price is more sensitive!
The focus of the dispute between the two sides is mainly the price, and various resource-based price standards have emerged in Glochini, which can increase the price by 5% in the next six years. However, Liang Dunyan, Minister of Industry and Commerce, was not stupid to directly reject Glochini’s request, and gave a high-sounding reason. What if the unit price of materials is greatly adjusted in the coming year to take care of Germany’s interests? Such a thing cannot be done.
Then Liang Dunyan came up with another plan, that is, starting from this year, all materials should be cheaper than the international benchmark price by 5% at the German unit price in the next six years!
This is tricky, but it will give a deep impression. Once the European war begins to consume heavily in the next few years, prices will inevitably soar, and the prices of various basic materials will be even higher. Even if it is 5% cheaper for Germany, it will have huge profits.
In the end, the two sides finally reached an agreement on everything and signed the Sino-German Trade Agreement.
1. In the next six years, Germany will purchase 10 million tons of oil, 20 million tons of coal, 5 million tons of steel and 6 million tons of grain from the Republic of China!
2. Germany purchased 210 mm, 350 mm and 320 mm heavy guns from the Republic of China and gave them to 10,000 guns and mortars of various types, totaling 15,000 guns, and each gun was equipped with 1,000 rounds! Ten thousand sets of spare parts for various types of artillery;
3. Purchase 20,000 heavy machine guns from the Republic of China. Each heavy machine gun is equipped with 20,000 rifles, 500,000 rifles and 500,000 boxes! Purchase 200,000 cases of grenades at one time;
4. Purchase an additional 100 tanks and 200,000 artillery shells from the Republic of China;
5. Purchase 1,000 additional heavy vehicles from the Republic of China.
6. The Republic of China promised that all production and military resources should give priority to the German government during the war; The Republic of China promised to send emergency supplies to Germany as soon as possible;
7, his small goods purchase agreement will be placed in the annex to the contract; etc
At the end of the two negotiations, the heads of government of the two countries presided over the signing and shaking hands of their respective contracts.
The news soon returned to William II, Germany, and the heart finally got down to earth. A large loan and a large purchase contract finally enabled Germany to make up for the mistakes it made in its previous preparations. It is not easy these days. These things are really exhausting, and William II is restless every day.
Now, whether it is oil, coal and other strategic materials or artillery, guns, weapons and ammunition, the Republic of China has reached an agreement. At the very least, it will not let itself be in a hurry in the war. Once these materials are in place, it will be time for Germany to launch a war.
At present, the tastes of other countries are naturally different. Although the industrial base of Britain, France and Russia is very strong, it can be self-sufficient to a great extent, but it can also be purchased from the United States or borrowed from the American government, but there are still some dissatisfaction. First of all, the military industry of the Republic of China is already the most advanced in the world. At least, the weapons of war on land are the most advanced, only the naval equipment is slightly behind Britain, but it is also very close. In some places, it has surpassed Britain. Purchasing advanced weapons in large quantities will put Germany in an active position in future wars. The second big loan contract is 3.7 billion yuan, which is so huge that the loan contract is almost rare in the world. No country has invested a lot of money into Germany, which has stretched the original economy. Germany is proud again!
Chapter one thousand three hundred and thirty-three Great changes
Two years passed.
It was the Spring Festival in 1912.
Beijing tangfu
A casual Tang Shaoyi with a red face The living room is full of Chinese Republic of China politicians Zhang Yi, Xu Huaijin, Yang Du, Lin Xu, Song Jiaoren, Liang Qichao, Zhang Binglin, and others. Fill up the spacious living room.
At the end of the year, Tang Shaoyi just handed over the responsibility of the Prime Minister to Yang Du. Now, Yang Du’s theory of talent, tolerance and vision have surpassed the position of Tang Shaoyi’s prime minister, and he is not afraid that no one can’t afford it. Worse still, Lin Xu, Liang Qichao and Song Jiaoren are behind him.
The officer is light and Tang Shaoyi is naturally relaxed. He has gained a lot of weight in just over a month.
Zhang Yi looked at Tang Shaoyi admiringly across the street and laughed. "Shaochuan has finally been liberated. Look at your present appearance. It really makes me envy. When can I jump out of this cage?"
After all, Zhang Yi failed to escape. Those die-hard confidants calculated that Zhang Yihu initiated Yang Du to promote the bosses to cheer. Finally, a resolution was passed in the parliament, that is, the presidential term extension case!
The resolution stipulates that the presidential term can exceed ten years in two situations: first, when there is a war in the country at the end of the presidential term, the presidential term can be postponed because of the needs of the country, and the presidential power will be surrendered at the end of the third; The second president died of illness or died under special circumstances, or was impeached by parliament and resigned. The vice president who took over the presidency can run for the third president. For the president, other matters have also been standardized one by one, and Song Jiaoren, a great talent in Yang Du, has also stipulated things to death exactly.
Song Jiaoren, however, knows that it’s time for him to exert his strength. That thing has offended all the bosses in the world. If he can’t fix everyone again, it will be miserable. It is very positive.
Now that the resolution comes out, Zhang Yi has no way out. He has always respected the political system and built a society ruled by law. Now that the law has come out, won’t he slap himself in the face if he opposes it? Ok, just hold on for another five years, but you can still bear it.
It is worth noting that this time, not only the position of prime minister was handed over to Yang Du, but also the position of vice president has been co-opted. Xu Huaijin has firmly sat in the position of vice president, and it is obvious to the eye that this is a big presidential position. Now Xu Huaijin is sitting in the army and has become a vice president. The position has become the only candidate for a big president!
Tang Shaoyi replied with a smile, "When you are strong, you can only bear it. How many people are jealous? It’s amazing that you don’t want to give it to you for nothing!"
