Beiyang reactionaries

"Then what about the Bank of Communications?"

"Let the Bank of Communications become a commercial bank and hand it over to the Board of Directors of the Bank of Communications, just like our Southwest Commercial Bank. I want to change the name of Southwest Commercial Bank to China Commercial Bank. In this way, we can form a bank headed by Bank of China, And the coexistence and development of two commercial banks, China Bank of Communications and China Commercial Bank. These three banks can be used to effectively sort out the national financial system. And in order to prevent direct contact with the government, special management banks and stock exchanges can be established. In the future, if the government wants to embezzle bank funds, it must have a loan, and if there is a loan, it must be repaid, and the bank cannot be used as an ATM.”

Duan Xun nodded slowly.

Banks matter.

Especially at this time, Duan Xun needs a stable financial environment.China's financial development cannot be allowed to develop at will.So Duan Xun said: "Who do you think is more suitable to be the president of the Bank of China?"

Once the Bank of China becomes the central bank, the status of the Bank of China will be greatly improved at that time.At that time, the Bank of China will no longer be a pure commercial bank, but will begin to supervise China's major banks, begin to standardize the financial order, and will become a management department.

"Zhang Jiaao, Vice President of the Bank of China."

"Zhang Jiaao? But how did I hear that Zhang Jiaao has a good relationship with the bank in Shanghai, and has always advocated increasing the commercial shares in the Bank of China and diluting the official shares."

Because the Bank of China is jointly run by the government and businessmen, the president of the Bank of China is appointed by the government.But the government-appointed president of the Bank of China does not necessarily know the management of the bank.So the real manager of Bank of China is the vice president of the bank.

Duan Xun has also heard about Zhang Jiaao.

Good ability.

Starting from Bank of China Shanghai Branch, because of his outstanding performance, he became the vice president of Bank of China at the age of 27.It is very famous in China's financial industry at present.

Especially in the past two years.

Because Zhang Jiaao united with other shareholders and had a very bad relationship with Wang Yitang, the boss of the Anfu Department sent by Duan Qirui.Duan Qirui is also short of money, so of course he wants to control the bank in his own hands.

The proportion of official shares in Bank of Communications is only 40.00%, but Bank of Communications is obedient and obedient.However, the shareholders of the Bank of China insisted on Duan Qirui, and confronted Wang Yitang and the others, who wanted to control the Bank of China's Anfu Department, several times, which made Wang Yitang and the others very embarrassed.Because the merchant shareholders of the Bank of China are the Shanghai financial forces headed by the South Three Banks, they have a very good relationship with the British and American financial forces.Not afraid of the pro-Japanese Anfu department.

Zhang Jiaao is one of the representatives.

"Yes."

Wang Yongjiang nodded.But Wang Yongjiang immediately said: "That's because the government agencies have been withdrawing money from the Bank of China, and the Bank of China has been printing money. That's why Zhang Jia'ao chose this. In fact, Zhang Jia'ao is a financial talent and has a deep understanding of running a bank. Research. During this person’s tenure in Bank of China, Bank of China has developed very well in all aspects, and the various rules and regulations of Bank of China are all from this person, and they are the most standardized among the major banks in China. Not only for Banks have conducted in-depth research on national economic construction, transportation construction, and financial issues."

"Meet him?"

"Yes. Among my proposals, there are some ideas of Zhang Jiaao. And he also suggested that the government should restrict the entry of banks, and everyone should not set up banks casually. This should also be the case for the current Shanghai stock exchange. .It is too simple to set up a bank or a stock exchange now, and it is easy to cause big problems.”

"How old is he?"

"31 is old."

"It's the prime of life. In this way, you will ask Zhang Jiaao to participate in the cabinet meeting half a month later. Take this bank consolidation plan and attend the meeting. The preliminary work can start, and I will persuade Premier Wang (Wang Chonghui) no matter what. ). If Zhang Jiaao dares to do things and is not afraid of offending people, then it doesn’t hurt to put him in charge of the Bank of China and the head of the institutions that oversee the financial sector.”

Duan Xun didn't know Zhang Jiaao, he just heard about his reputation.

But since Wang Yongjiang is so optimistic about him, Duan Xun will not object.Moreover, China's current banks and stocks are indeed too chaotic, so we should take care of them.If Zhang Jiaao is not afraid of offending others, and he sorts out China's finances, Duan Xun will definitely reward him then.

31 is old.

very young.

"Also, in addition to the banks you mentioned, you should also consider preparing the Agricultural Bank of China. It is a deposit and loan business that specializes in serving farmers. It mainly focuses on low interest rates and suppresses the current situation of too high interest rates in rural areas."

The Agricultural Bank is not really for the development of agriculture.Duan Xun established the Agricultural Bank in the hope of cooperating with the rent and interest reduction campaign he will implement in the future.If there is another darker idea, most of the farmers' loans are without collateral.Much of the so-called collateral is land.At that time, this method may be used to recycle a lot of farmland.

Of course that's all for later.

But it also needs to be arranged.

"Yes, I'll go back and think about it."

"The Ministry of Finance has a very heavy task this year. It is necessary to connect the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Finance of the Border Supervision Administration, and the financial systems of Zhili, Shandong, and Jiangxi must be rectified as soon as possible."

"Yes."

307 Lu Yongxiang's Ambition

Duan Xun has been in Beijing for a while.

Everyone is paying attention to what Duan Xun will do.However, in the first month, Duan Xun did not take much action after entering Beijing, but quickly allocated funds to solve the financial crisis of the Beijing government.Although not all the salaries were paid, two months' salaries were paid, which stabilized the various agencies and schools of the Beijing government.But more than a month later, news came out one after another from the cabinet.

Wang Chonghui's cabinet, whether you agree or not, this is indeed Wang Chonghui's cabinet.

Because Wang Chonghui is the prime minister of the cabinet.

On August 1920, 8, the Ministry of War formally submitted a proposal on suppressing bandits.The cabinet meeting that day passed the bill, and the Secretary-General of the State Yang Yongtai immediately announced it to the public that afternoon.The Ministry of the Army appointed Duan Kan as the commander of the national bandit suppression, Sun Yue, the former commander of the No.11 mixed brigade, as the deputy commander in chief, and He Guoguang, the former commander of the independent brigade, as the chief of staff.Immediately set up the National Bandit Suppression Headquarters and the National Bandit Suppression Force as soon as possible.

Conduct a one-year nationwide military campaign against bandits.

And the police stations across the country should also cooperate with this payment operation.In order to carry out the bandit suppression operation smoothly, a military and police coordination committee was established, which is mainly responsible for the coordination between the bandit suppression force and the local police force.Appoint You Min as the director of the Military Police Coordination Committee, and the police system across the country must cooperate with the Military Police Coordination Committee to carry out the nationwide military campaign against bandits in the coming year.

Adding a department is too difficult.

why.

Because adding a department requires a vote in Congress.But currently Duan Xun has not controlled the Congress. Although Duan Xun has already put Wang Yitang in, Duan Xun actually does not expect Wang Yitang, or he is quite defensive about Wang Yitang in his heart.Because the Congress has been going around in recent years, there are various forces.Moreover, with the turbulence of the Beijing government these years, these members of Congress have taken refuge in this force today and that force tomorrow, and their reputations are already very bad.It even got to the point of listening to whoever gave the money.

Therefore, Duan Xun does not count on the current Congress.

When his position in the Beijing government is stable and everyone recognizes Duan Xun as the deputy prime minister of the cabinet, Duan Xun will rectify the Congress.

But now is not the time.So since it is more difficult to add a department, Duan Xun took a detour.I don't set up a formal department, I set up some temporary departments, just like this so-called Military Police Coordination Committee.It is not a formal department, but a temporary department established for the smooth suppression of bandits.

On the surface, it seems that it is for this bandit suppression.

But in fact, it is to prepare for the establishment of the Police Department and take back the power of the police system from the current Ministry of Justice.Youmin's position as the director of the Military Police Coordination Committee is equivalent to the position of the Minister of Police.

Because during the period of suppressing bandits, the police system across the country must obey the orders of this coordination committee.As for whether to withdraw this department after the bandit suppression is over, it depends on the future situation.

When the bandits are ordered, the whole country supports it.

In recent years, because of the bandits, everyone has been greatly troubled.Especially those merchants who took caravans suffered a lot.Although the government suppressed bandits several times after the founding of the Republic of China, it was the first time that the cabinet approved the establishment of a special headquarters to suppress bandits.

So many people have high hopes for this bandit suppression.

In particular, Duan Xun's entry into Beijing has made everyone look forward to it.Because the southwestern provinces were originally provinces full of bandits, especially the Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou region, which was a province full of bandits.But since Duan Xun was in Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou, the bandits there have almost disappeared.

Including Hunan, Henan, Guangxi, and Shaanxi, banditry has been greatly reduced since Duan Xun took control.

But the order to suppress the bandits was only the beginning.

On August 1920, 8, the cabinet announced a national ten-year railway plan.Among them are the Longhai Railway, the Guangdong-Han Railway, the Sichuan-Han Railway, and the Xianggui Railway, which are under construction. In addition to the railways promised by Duan Xun when he took over as the border supervisor, the Beijing-Baotou Railway (Beijing to Baotou), Lanxin Railway ( Lanzhou to Xinjiang), Jinglun Railway (Beijing to Kulun) planning.

There are very detailed timing diagrams.

It is a promise made by Wang Chonghui's cabinet.
