After counting all of Kang Youwei's properties, Zhang Xueliang looked at the list carefully, and suddenly let out a strange cry. He couldn't believe it. The wealth that this old guy has mastered is all converted into oceans, which is as huge as 600 million, most of which are Entrusted to foreigners to manage.

"Zhuoyan, this old guy ran abroad penniless, and managed to save such a big family just by fooling around with his mouth. How many people has he cheated!"

Zhang Tinglan was also very surprised, and he didn't expect that Kang Youwei was so fat. The other nobles of the Eight Banners might be richer, and their family fortunes are quite astonishing. Don't look at these Eight Banners. good hand.

Moreover, after the demise of the Qing Dynasty, these people transferred a large amount of property to foreigners' banks, and the losses were not large. Over the years, the wealth they have mastered is quite amazing just by eating interest.

Zhang Tinglan felt a sense of enthusiasm in an instant. This time, the nobles of the Eight Banners must not be let go. The money in their hands is the plunder of the Han people, and they must not be allowed to squander it. They must be taken back.

"Hanqing, don't let Kang Youwei go in a hurry. This old fellow may have hidden wealth. You must torture him carefully to squeeze out everything."

After explaining to Kang Youwei, Zhang Tinglan was also thinking about how to deal with Kang Youwei's property list. Obviously, he couldn't simply sell it, but he had to manage all these industries. With this overseas influence network, he could There are more things to do, and it is best to get another bank so that the capital in hand can be transferred overseas.

World War I will end in more than a year, and Europe will become a paradise for adventurers. As long as you have sufficient capital, you can take advantage of this golden opportunity to purchase a large number of machine technologies and introduce a large number of industrial talents. .

According to Zhang Tinglan's estimate, after the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant is put into operation, the steel output will reach more than 20 tons. This amount is far from enough. If the equipment can be obtained from Germany, the steel output will increase to [-] tons within two or three years. tons, so Fengjun has a certain amount of capital.

Whether it is the development of military industry or infrastructure construction, there are sufficient guarantees. In addition, the electronics industry, chemical industry, automobile industry, shipbuilding industry, and machine tool industry are all shortcomings of Fengjun, and they must be made up for.With these things, the industries in the three northeastern provinces can basically operate on their own. Although there is still a big gap compared with the Japanese, the two sides are no longer far apart.

As long as the method is used correctly, Fengjun can also challenge Japan. At that time, there is no need to pretend to be a grandson. When the conditions are ripe, Fengjun will take back the South Manchuria Railway and be completely driven out of the three eastern provinces by the Japanese forces.

Of course, to realize this plan, the most important thing is enough capital. Thinking of this, Zhang Tinglan also knew that this time, if he didn't want to kill a lot, he would not succeed. He could only extract oil from these Eight Banners nobles.

At this time, news came from his subordinates. Duan Qirui commanded the army, defeated the braided army, and entered Beijing. Almost at the same time, Wu Peifu also entered the capital. The braided army was completely finished. The farce is completely over.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhang Tinglan hurriedly summoned all the main officers of the Feng army. Zhang Tinglan said loudly: "Everyone, although Zhang Xun, the chief culprit, is dead, the accomplices of the restoration are still there. They are the old and young of the Qing Dynasty. It is those bureaucrats who are full of thoughts. With the existence of these people, there is still a risk of restoring the monarchy. Since our Fengjun has entered the customs, we have the responsibility to completely cut off all hidden dangers and ensure that such farce will never occur. Therefore, I Order, Feng Jun immediately enters the city to search for all the elders and children involved in the case, it is better to catch them by mistake than to let them go!"

The banner played by Zhang Tinglan is aboveboard, but the underground officers of the Fengjun know in their hearts that this is the beginning of the search, and Zhang Tinglan has also relaxed their requirements. Everyone is gearing up and eager to try.

After leaving the meeting room, Feng Jun immediately launched his actions and rushed into the capital separately. At this time, Beijing was already in chaos, with traces of firefights everywhere on the streets, and piles of whips on the ground.

These subordinates of Zhang Xun scattered, cut off their whips one after another, and fled separately. The Beiyang army that had already entered the city was also smashing doors everywhere, rushing into shops and houses on the street. If you want to make a fortune, reward yourself.

However, their act of robbing the common people made Fengjun very disdainful. If they want to rob, they have to grab those big fish. What kind of skill is bullying the common people? Fengjun's first target is the Prince Qing's Mansion.

Prince Qing Yi Kuang was an important figure in the political arena of the late Qing Dynasty. He was greedy and incompetent. Rich family property, living a pampered life.

At the beginning of this year, Prince Qing Yi Kuang died, and his eldest son Zai Zhen inherited the throne. When Zhang Xun was restored, Zai Zhen also went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to congratulate the little emperor. In between, Zhang Xun was finished.

Zai Zhen had no choice but to hide in the mansion, shutting the door and trying to avoid the limelight. At this moment, the gate of Prince Qing's mansion was knocked open, and hundreds of Fengjun soldiers poured in like wolves and tigers from outside. With guns in their hands, they controlled everyone in the palace.

Chapter 361 The Lawless Beard

After Feng Jun took control of Prince Qing's Mansion, Zai Zhen was pushed and hugged to the front hall. Zhang Tingshu was crossing his legs, waiting for news, and Zai Zhen was sent to him.

Young Master Zhang Er cast a sidelong glance at Zai Zhen, then smiled calmly and said, "Master Xiaoqing, I heard that your father just died at the beginning of the year, and now you have become the successor prince. This is an anecdote in the world. Now, why is there such a thing as hereditary replacement?"

Zai Zhen was full of resentment, but he also knew that he had to bow his head under the low eaves, so he could only accompany him with a smile: "Mr. Jun, when the emperor abdicated, the Republic of China had already passed the conditions for preferential treatment of the royal family. to retain the throne."

"According to this, the Republic of China has treated you with the utmost benevolence and righteousness. I heard from my master that your ancestors killed all the members of Zhu Ming's royal family, leaving no one behind!"

Zhang Tingshu turned up his old background, and Zai Zhen could only say awkwardly: "The times are different, the times are different."

"Now that you know the times are different, and you still want to restore the monarchy, do you think that the Republic of China is too kind to you, and let you bastards put your noses on your face and want to be masters again?"

Regardless of Zhang Tingshu's young age, he had also been on the battlefield, and when he stared at him, he was still very murderous, and Zai Zhen's calves couldn't help but feel weak.

"Master Jun, I don't want to support the restoration. It's all done by Zhang Xun. I won't do this kind of thing that hits a stone with an egg. You must believe me!"

"It's late! There are two ways, either hand over all your property honestly, or go underground to meet your ancestors."

"Mr. Jun. You can't do that. Our property is protected by the royal family's preferential treatment regulations. It was approved by the government of the Republic of China. You can't do anything foolish."

"Hey, now I think of this regulation, but why did you forget that after the restoration, the legal system of the Republic of China government was interrupted by you, and the previously passed laws naturally lost their effect and need to be re-examined. This preferential treatment regulation is naturally a dead letter. Your current status is not a legacy of the Qing Dynasty, but a sinner of the country, you have all been tried, and all your property must be handed over, there is no room for negotiation."

Zhang Tingshu's words pierced Zai Zhen's heart like a random knife, and he is also dumbfounded now.When there was no restoration, they could still survive, but after the restoration, they could only wait to be stabbed.

At this time, Zai Zhen had already started to scold Zhang Xun's eight generations of ancestors in his heart, and regretted to the extreme, why didn't he think about it at the beginning.What good is there in mixing with a restoration that we know is bound to fail?

Regardless of how Zai Zhen regretted it, it was useless now, Feng Jun's gun was aimed at his head, or he had to give him money.or die.

"Zai Zhen, you'd better be smart. Don't let go of your deposits, shops, properties, manors, literature, calligraphy and paintings, as long as there is a little hiding, be careful of your dog's head!"

"Master Jun, we've handed over all these. What are we going to eat?" Zai Zhen said in a tearful voice, "We can't lift our shoulders or lift our hands. You're going to starve us to death."

"360 lines, there is no such thing as free food. You have hands and feet. Look at how those workers and peasants are alive. They don't know anything. Just take a bowl and go to the street to beg for food. In short, your good days are gone!"

Facing the glaring bayonet, Zai Zhen didn't dare to say anything. He could only honestly count his property and hand it over to Fengjun. Zhang Tingshu was on the sidelines to strictly supervise him. See what they say, and compare the various ledgers at home to make sure there are no omissions.

Not only Prince Qing's mansion, but Prince Jin's mansion and Prince Gong's mansion did not run away. Under the prince is the county king, as well as all the beauties, princes and ministers. In short, all the Eight Banners nobles in Beijing have been patronized by Fengjun.

Zhang Tinglan was in charge of the overall situation, Zhang Xueliang acted as the frontline commander, and the other officers were subcontracted and checked mansions one by one. Wherever the Fengjun passed by, it was like being swept by a big broom, and nothing was left.

With such a large-scale toss by Feng Jun, the city of Beijing was immediately alarmed, and the news spread rapidly.At this time, Lao Duan had just cleared up Zhang Xun's braided army and returned to the Prime Minister's Office. He was relieved. Although this time did not go as smoothly as expected, he returned to Beijing anyway and was able to regain power. , It is also a good thing for the old section.

Little Zhuge Xu Shuzheng sat opposite Duan Qirui, and his expression was not very good: "Zhi Weng, Li Yuanhong has also returned to the presidential palace. This time, we have been busy for nothing this time. We didn't win Li Bodhisattva at all, and instead recruited Zhang Zuolin." With such a powerful enemy, what to do next, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult!"

"Youzheng, what is the combat effectiveness of your absolute army? Is it stronger or weaker than our army?"

"Zhi Weng, Fengjun is indeed superior. Zhang Tinglan sent us an officer corps. The leader is Zhang Henian. He is very good at commanding artillery, and their shooting skills are also very high. Without their help, we can't do it." Quickly occupy Fengtai."

Xu Shuzheng was proud and arrogant, and it was rare for him to say a good word about others. Now that he was able to recognize Feng Jun's combat effectiveness, it also showed that Feng Jun had shocked him a lot, and he couldn't help but face up to this powerful army outside the pass.

"Youzheng, Beiyang cherishes talents. If Zhang Henian is willing to join us, he can be reused." The old Duan also felt the threat of Fengjun, and began to think about poaching.

"I'm afraid there is no hope for Zhi Weng's matter. I tried it, but Fengjun's control is very strong, and the officers under him are also extremely loyal. It is impossible to find it with ordinary conditions."

Duan Qirui also fell into deep thought, and asked after a while, "Youzheng, do you think the Beiyang Army can catch up with the Feng Army?"

"Of course." Xu Shuzheng said confidently: "Fengjun's fighting power is strong, mainly due to the training in place, and the soldiers they recruit are also very particular, all of them are from innocent backgrounds. With heavy rewards and hard training, the fighting power will naturally increase. Now Beiyang's army has accumulated a lot, and it is difficult to reverse it, but we still have participating troops, as long as the participating troops are trained, Beiyang's combat effectiveness is still the best in the world, and the mere Fengjun is no match at all!"

"It's good to have this confidence. In fact, Beiyang was not like this at the beginning. It was full of vigor, and everyone's energy was focused on one place. But now that everyone is rich, everyone's thoughts are more, and people's hearts are not aligned!"

When Duan Qirui was sighing, suddenly someone from his subordinates came to report that it was Yin Chang who asked to see him. This Yin Chang was also an important minister during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he had a close relationship with Lao Yuan. When Duan Qirui was training soldiers at Xiaozhan Yin Chang and others were recommended to Yuan Shikai.

After arriving in the Republic of China, Yin Chang naturally couldn't continue to be an official, but in Beiyang, his connections were still there, and his status was very special. When he came to ask for an interview, Duan Qirui hurriedly greeted him.

As soon as they met, Yin Chang's face was full of anger, and he said loudly to Duan Qirui: "Zhiquan, do you want to wipe out the Manchus? The old bastard is dead!"

"Mr. Wulou, what are you talking about? I can't understand a word. We are old friends, old buddies, how can you use a knife?"

"Aren't you pretending to be confused with me?" Yin Chang said angrily, "Now your rebellious army is hunting mansions full of people in the city. King Qing's mansion and Prince Jin's mansion can't escape, and the same is true for other princes and ministers. Don't you want to kill them all? Is it?"

Seeing Yin Chang's expression, Duan Qirui also knew that it was not a lie, so he hurriedly called Xu Shuzheng over.

"Youzheng, hurry up and see what's going on. Didn't I already tell you that Zhang Xun's braided army is the only one to be held accountable? Don't punish innocent people. Who is ignoring my orders? Tell them to stop quickly!" !"

Xu Shuzheng also hurriedly nodded and said yes, and he ran outside in a panic. At this time, Sun Liechen had already arrived outside the gate of the Prime Minister's Office, and happened to collide with Xu Shuzheng.
