Beiyang reactionaries

Even Yu Youren had this attitude, so Duan Xun was relieved.

Therefore, he said to Yan Shichao: "This time, the negotiation will remove the Hong Kong issue, and don't talk about this topic with the UK."

"Yes."

"Negotiations with the United Kingdom are the top priority. As long as a contract is signed with the United Kingdom, the negotiations with the European powers can be resolved together. I hope that within two years, we can negotiate with all the great powers , to end the history of foreign powers owning concessions in China, and ending the history of foreign powers’ consular jurisdiction in China. Director Yan, the work of your Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be very heavy, and I hope you can defeat them.”

"Yes."

negotiation.

After the establishment of the new British government, China responded very quickly.

On January 1924, 1, Yan Shichao, Minister of Foreign Affairs, notified the British ambassador, hoping that the two sides would resume negotiations.In fact, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the British Consulate in China have already started negotiations last year.

Mainly related to compensation and customs issues.

It was to ease the increasingly tense Sino-British relations at that time.

In fact, the two sides had a very good discussion, and a consensus has been reached on many aspects.The United Kingdom gave up the compensation and at the same time gave up the control of the Chinese customs, and supported the Chinese government to control the Chinese customs.The Chinese side stopped the "anti-British wave" among the people and provided a good market environment for British products.But because the UK was having an election at the time, the negotiations could not continue.Many consensuses that have been reached cannot be signed.Because all signings must be signed by London.Now that the new British government is established, of course this connection must be made.

In addition to the direct negotiations between China and the British ambassador, the cabinet formed a negotiating team.Appoint Shi Zhaoji, the ambassador to the UK, as the head of the delegation, and Gu Weijun, the representative to the League of Nations, as the deputy head of the delegation, forming a negotiating team to negotiate directly with the British government in London.

This is a Beijing thing.

And Shanghai is still very busy.

The influence of the financial turmoil is too great, and it is very troublesome to deal with the following matters.And when it comes to the Chinese New Year, the people sent by the Bank of China are working overtime to make statistics on those financial assets in Shanghai.

Calculation.

And some other banks, especially China Bank of Communications, China Commercial Bank, China Commercial Bank, China Savings Bank, and China Construction Bank, which have swallowed up the strength of Shanghai's financial assets this time, are constantly digesting.

Digest the swallowed financial assets.

Not only is the Bank of China busy, but the Shanghai Municipal Government is also very busy.Because the financial turmoil this time has also affected Shanghai's industry and commerce.Many industries and businesses originally wanted to raise funds, but because of the impact of the financial turmoil this time, they encountered many difficulties in financing in the short term.

And many industrial and commercial tycoons also participated in this speculation, and their own losses were huge.

These need to be appeased by the Shanghai Municipal Government.

So when the Spring Festival is approaching, Beijing and Shanghai are very busy. I don't feel that the Spring Festival is coming soon, and I can't feel the festive atmosphere.Because they have so much to deal with.

Of course, this is not only the case in Beijing and Shanghai, but also in other places.

Especially Changsha.

Received a lot of media attention.

why.

Because of a lawsuit here, it has attracted the attention of the national media.

What lawsuit.

estate lawsuit.

In fact, it is a very simple matter, and there are countless such things in the local area.This is an incident that happened in Xiangtan, a family surnamed Zhao.

Husband died.

A widow was left without a single child.

The Zhao family clan thought it was clan assets, and the assets should be confiscated by the clan when the man died.A widow has no children, and a widow is not considered a member of the Zhao family, so she has no inheritance rights.The Zhao family clan confiscated this part of the property, saying that they wanted to take back the clan's ancestral land, but in fact it was annexed by several powerful clans.

In fact, this is nothing more than a common thing.

Because there are too many such things.

Locally, the clan is the sky, and the patriarchal clan is the sky.If the head of the clan is kind and willing to abide by the rules of the clan, then the clan is a good thing for the clan.

Because the clan will help those who are old, weak, sick and disabled.

But if the head of the clan, or the elder of the clan is not kind, then the problem will be big.But the society has developed to the present, and there are many dirty things in the big family.

It's just that no one cares about it, so the outside looks like a group of poetry and book heirloom families.

As the saying goes, if the people don't sue the officials, they won't investigate.

Clan law is above all else locally.Under normal circumstances, even if the clan decides to sue, the government will not pay attention to it.Of course, the more important thing is that you can't win this kind of thing.

Since ancient times, China has been a patriarchal society.

Even the royal family has to accept the patriarchal clan within the royal family, let alone those big families of the people.If you even sue your clan, you are a problematic person in the eyes of others, and you are a rebellious person.

Therefore, in terms of locality, the clan will have no scruples.

pity.

After Tang Qunying came to Hunan, a series of things happened.Then the Hunan Women's Federation was established, with the slogans of freedom in love, freedom in marriage, and respect for women's property rights.

The Zhao Li family who was deprived of their property by the Zhao family clan was not convinced, so she approached the Hunan Women's Federation and asked them to make decisions for themselves.Therefore, the Hunan Women's Federation hired a lawyer and personally fought the lawsuit.

There was an uproar.

The whole country knows it.

This case is very special.After all, this is a very rare case of suing the clan, and it is also a case of a woman suing her husband's clan.So the case came to the Changsha Court.

Have played several rounds.

On January 1924, 1, only five days before the Spring Festival, the Changsha City Court made the final judgment on this case.A large crowd gathered at the gate of the court.

Although no one can enter the court to hear the trial, everyone is paying attention to the trial.

There are even a group of reporters outside.

This is the case on the outside, but the people on the inside are more serious.

Because the judge makes the final judgment.

"According to the property inheritance law of the Republic of China, because Zhao Kairong's parents passed away and had no heirs, Zhao Kairong's legal heir is only his wife, Zhao Lishi. Therefore, this court declares that Zhao Kairong's property, land, cash and other inheritances will all be inherited by Zhao Lishi. The Zhao family clan must return all of Zhao Kairong's inheritance to the Zhao Li family within half a month of the trial."

"Boom boom boom——"
