Like a tornado, the Shanghai run on the yen finally reached the Wenhua Hall in the capital on the third day after the Fuyuan Li Bank had its business license revoked, and the person who reported this information was Ma Yinchu, the head of the household department, who actually did not care about the lawsuit and the protests of the Shanghai Banking Federation, and only reported it to Song Jiaoren in view of the worsening run situation in Shanghai. Shanghai is the financial center of China, and the Japanese people, especially the Beiting side, hold a large amount of yen, once Shanghai affects the Beiting and even the whole country, then after the yen is redeemed in pounds, it will be a matter of time before it withdraws from the gold standard.

"So the situation in Shanghai is out of control?" After listening to Ma Yinchu's report, Song Jiaoren, who had just finished handling the first batch of official duties in the morning, had his mind spinning rapidly.

"Yes, Prime Minister." Ma Yinchu's brain turned faster, so that the beads of sweat on his forehead were fine. "Yang Shihu, who went to sit in the town, is not very lawful, and his actions are too eager, and the matter seems to be getting bigger and bigger. If the central government doesn't think of any other way, the market is moving like this, maybe... Maybe the yen will collapse......"

"Does this matter have anything to do with Zhang Xingjian?" Song Jiaoren asked, with his understanding of the financial world, Zhang Kun is inseparable.

"This ......" Ma Yinchu pondered for a while, and finally said: "I didn't find evidence of Zhang Xingjian's involvement in this matter, but the run on the yen is not a trivial matter, and it is impossible for him not to know about it. Maybe... Maybe ......"

Ma Yin stopped talking at first, Song Jiaoren looked at him and smiled: "Maybe what?" Yuanshan can say whatever you want. ”

As if making a big decision, Ma Yinchu shook his head and said, "Maybe this thing is the meaning of Tonghua." It must be known that Tonghua has already attached great importance to the Sino-Japanese alliance, and since it is an alliance, it will never be limited to a paper treaty, and market integration, economic integration, financial integration, and monetary integration will be gradually promoted. There are now rumors that Japan's Hamaguchi cabinet does not agree to the establishment of the Bank of Asia with the National Bank, which should be a step towards financial integration.

Since the Japanese are against it. Then Tonghua is about to counteract. Although this Wang Boyuan is just a speculator, how can he have so much courage to run on the yen? He must have been instructed by someone behind him, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to Tokyo to exchange gold for the New Year. Now the trend in Shanghai seems to be because Shihu is too eager, but there are people in it who want to take the opportunity to make a big deal out of it. ”

Yang Yinpu is a member of the China Economic Society, and Ma Yinchu is the president of the China Economic Society, an organization that is mostly composed of students studying in the United States. In the original history. Under the support of Song Ziwen and others, these economists studying in the United States are all not bad, but now because of the Yang and Yu families, they can only touch the power when Song Jiaoren is the prime minister.

Yang Yinpu was strongly recommended by Ma Yinchu, and now he is boiling with public resentment in Shanghai, and Ma Yinchu always has to speak for him. Sure enough, after he lifted Yang Rui out, Song Jiaoren's attention really wanted to go in the direction he expected - I saw that his beard was constantly vibrating, and his chest bellows were getting more and more rapid. With the last 'bang', the teacup had fallen to the ground, and the tea and broken porcelain spilled on the ground.

This is the third time that Ma Yinchu has seen Song Jiaoren drop the cup, the first time was last year, the court rejected the tax increase case, and the second time was when Zhang Kun of the State Bank refused to rescue Huzhou Silk Bank. Of course, this is the only thing Ma Yin has seen at the beginning, and what others have seen does not count.

The prime minister was angry, and Ma Yinchu had no choice but to keep silent. It is not easy to calm down Song Jiaoren's anger, but it is not easy to calm down Song Jiaoren's anger - at the beginning of the founding of the country. He once designed a puppet system for Yang Rui, that is, the National Assembly was controlled by the Kuomintang and the provincial gentry, and even if the Fuxing Society had force, it would only become a memorial arch with no real power, and he did not want the Fuxing Society to come to a 'tax and have the right to vote', and tens of millions of peasants immediately submerged the Kuomintang and the gentry; and vice versa. He was in power but the agricultural tax was abolished, and the Inspectorate was controlled by the gentry who had gained benefits, and he couldn't do anything he wanted, and he was simply a puppet.

Bank Negara plays a key role in this. This was previously considered an institution that was not very important. It has become the core of the behind-the-scenes rule of the Renaissance Society -- the soldiers outside the customs and the money inside the customs -- this is the complete ruling mechanism of Greater China. As for the Inspectorate, it is only a collection of beneficiaries of the financial network based on the National Bank, whose wealth, their shops, their industries, and their ...... are all covered by a negligent financial network, and the Revival Society, which weaves this network, is the greatest beneficiary and real defender of the network.

Because of this, anyone who dares to subvert the financial network based on the national bank will be dealt a devastating blow by the army under the control of the Renaissance Society. Although China's military system has been reformed, and each province has its own army, the result of the reform of the military system is that the military strength outside the border is dominant, especially under the pattern of land defense against Soviet Russia and coastal defense against Britain and the United States, and the armored divisions of the whole army are concentrated in the north. In the event of an abnormal movement in the Guan, the Panzer Division outside the Guanwai will immediately move south to bulldoze the rebel province......

"Yuanshan, I think it's better for you to go to Shanghai once." After a long time, Song Jiaoren spoke, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked Ma Yinchu to go to Shanghai.

"Prime Minister, it's not impossible for Yin Chu to go to Shanghai, it's just ...... Going to Shanghai may not alleviate the crisis. Ma Yinchu's face was bitter, and he kept pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"No, if you go to Shanghai, go directly to Zhang Xingjian and see what he means!" Song Jiaoren said.

Song Jiaoren's order was like this, Ma Yin wanted to agree at first but endured it, he said again: "Prime Minister, Zhang Xingjian will definitely push the matter of the run on the yen, not only that, but he will stand in Shanghai and point to the household, this is ......"

"I know that. You just go and talk to him openly and honestly, see what he wants to do, do you really want the Sino-Japanese alliance to trigger a war between China and the United States? Song Jiaoren sneered. If that's the case, what else do you want me to do as a puppet prime minister, it's better for me to fall down and then they will go straight to power. It was a lot of trouble, and they could do whatever they wanted back then. ”

Song Jiaoren's words are almost equivalent to a showdown, he understands very well that his coming to power is ostensibly because the Fuxing Society has fulfilled its original promise, but in fact it is because it has to face Europe and the United States, especially the United States, and the Revival Society hopes that a pro-American cabinet will come to power, so that the 27-year naval renewal negotiations of Shenwu can be passed, and if this pass cannot be passed, then a certain veteran of the Fuxing Society, which represents Yang Jingcheng's will, will reorganize his cabinet to prepare for a Sino-US war that will last for a short time.

To put it bluntly, the Kuomintang cabinet was only a muddy cabinet sandwiched between the Revival Society and Britain and the United States. Its mission is to eliminate or prevent the upcoming war between China and the United States. Although sandwiched between the two, it does not mean that the KMT has much freedom and power, for example, the current yen run in Shanghai is not controlled by the cabinet at all. The cabinet was only a smokescreen to deceive Britain and the United States, and some substantive and crucial things were still implemented as scheduled, such as the Sino-Japanese alliance and even the Sino-Japanese alliance.

-- Song Jiaoren is very clear about his position and function, although he is helpless. However, he believed that the Kuomintang could grow considerably in the process of this kind of harmony, and eventually evolve into a real second largest party, and at the same time he did not want China and the United States to go to war, which would make the country doomed.

Song Jiaoren in Beijing thought so, and Zhang Kun, who was in the Lujiazui State Bank Building in Shanghai, as one of the core members of the Revival Society at this time, of course understood the true meaning of Song Jiaoren's words conveyed by Ma Yinchu, but he didn't care about it.

Looking at Ma Yinchu, who was full of righteous indignation in front of him, he only smiled and said: "Premier Song really thinks too highly of Zhang Kun." There are hundreds of banks large and small in China, and the general offices have all kinds of business, and some time ago the Bank of Guangdong also said that it would cooperate with Thailand to dig the Kra Canal. This kind of thing will definitely be opposed by foreigners, but they are not shouting Zhenghuan yet, and now it is said that they are ready to raise shares.

Fuyuanli Bank is a speculative bank, so it's called Wang Boyuan or Wang Whatyuan, isn't it called King of Gold. Who stopped him when he went bankrupt and hoarded silver dollar coupons? Mayor Yu went to persuade him for the sake of his fellow villagers at that time. But he just won't listen! The final result was ......, gold dollars for silver dollars. He earned more than 10 million yuan in that amount. Now he is convinced that the yen will exit the gold standard, just as he was convinced that the government will jump from the silver standard to the gold standard in one step. I think it's better to go with the flow, and it's useless for me to come forward. ”

Zhang Kun smoked as he spoke, not a cigarette or a cigar, but a delicate jade pipe like the other big bankers. Smile and push everything to a two, six, five. He took the document sent by the secretary again, signed it hastily, and finally said: "Brother Yuanshan, I will have a meeting later, look at this ......"

Ma Yinchu asked to see Zhang Kun in the name of Song Jiaoren. At the beginning, it started with Song Jiaoren's words, of course, he added some of his own things, and he didn't want Zhang Kun to push the responsibility aside in three or two sentences, and now it seems that he has to chase away customers. The muscles on his fat face tensed a few times, his eyes also helped, and finally stood up with his temper and said: "Governor Zhang, now there is a run on the yen in the market, this move has surprised the friendly countries, once the yen collapses, it will cause a financial storm in East Asia and exacerbate the world economic crisis. ”

Ma Yinchu did not call 'Xingjian' but called Zhang Kun President Zhang, and Zhang Kun no longer called him 'Yuanshan' but called him an adult. He said, "Your Excellency is wrong, and it is for the sake of this country that the National Bank never dares to act rashly. The fundamental reason why the yen was run on speculatively was that the yen returned to the gold standard at an unsuitable time and at an unsuitable exchange rate, so the losses caused can only be blamed on the Japanese themselves. Speculation is only a benign mechanism for correcting market errors, and the prime minister has said that where there is a bubble, there will be speculation, just as where there is a shortage of goods, prices will skyrocket, so although the National Bank does not encourage speculation, it will never oppose it, especially now, and there is no need for us to lose ourselves because of the mistakes of the Japanese. ”

"You're a strong word!!" Ma Yinchu was furious. In his eyes, many bureaucrats of the Revival Society, especially those in the financial and financial system, are only at the level of money banks, and Yang Rui, the so-called master of economics, only knows classical economics, and the latest European and American economic theories are not at all. Now Zhang Kun, the son of the owner of a bankrupt money bank, actually defended his speculation, and he was suddenly angry. "President Zhang, officials naturally have to put the people's livelihood in their hearts, as the so-called no traitor, no business, no business, all speculation is the behavior of profiteers to scrape the people's fat and ointment......"

"My lord, you didn't come here to give a lecture, did you?" Ma Yinchu held the title of Ph.D. in economics from Columbia University, and Zhang Kun thought it was a good idea, but now from the mouth of an economist, he spat out the indignant words of the bureaucrats who made him evil, and he immediately interrupted him. "If you want to give a speech, you can go to Zhang Yuan, which is the National Bank."

"Do you still have a court in your eyes? And is there a cabinet government?! Ma Yinchu was interrupted by Zhang Kun and was even more angry, but this was not the capital after all, so his anger had not yet attacked.

"I'm sorry, all I have in my eyes is money." Zhang Kun's smile is undiminished. After that, he met Ma Yinchu's angry gaze, and the two stared at each other for a while before he said: "My lord, if you don't have anything else..., I will have a meeting here soon, you can see ......"

"I don't care what you know, the run on the yen must be resolved!" Ma Yinchu originally stood up, but now he sat down heavily.

"Speculation is a matter for the general affairs of the banks, and the National Bank cannot and is not obliged to stop it." Zhang Kun did not back down.

"However, the National Bank is the central bank of the country and has the sole right to issue Chinese dollars. If you are not obligated to stop speculation, then please return the right to issue Huayuan. Ma Yinchu didn't back down, he had to drag Zhang Kun to solve the matter completely.

"Then the adult should go to the Inspector's Court, as long as the Inspector's Court and the provincial Inspector's Court agree, the right to issue Huayuan can be exchanged."

"No, the right to issue is here, and the banknote printing factory is also here, why should I go to the Inspector's Office, those old men won't listen to me."

"Then why do I have to listen?" Zhang Kun smiled, he locked the filing cabinet and drawers, and then stood up and said, "I'm busy." If you wish, you can take a break here. ”

Seeing that Zhang Kun wanted to leave, Ma Yinchu stopped doing it, he stood up and stretched out his hand to stop Zhang Kun: "If the matter is not resolved today, you can't leave!" ”

"I'm sorry, but this is not the business of the National Bank, and I have no authority to prevent the commercial bank from operating legally, unless the Dali Temple presents an injunction." Zhang Kun looked at the security guard of the Troubled Water Company walking outside the glass door, and smiled even more, "If the adults still want to entangle, then I can only ask the adults to go out." ”

"You dare!" Ma Yinchu looked at Zhang Kun's smile, and then followed his gaze to see the two guards with loaded guns coming outside the glass door, his face suddenly turned pale, and he shouted, "Zhang Xingjian, do you want to rebel, I am an official of the imperial court!" ”

Ignoring Ma Yinchu, Zhang Kun looked at the secretary who walked in and said, "Master Ma is tired, what about me, there is a very important meeting, you see if the adults are willing to rest here or go out to rest in the lounge." ”

After instructing the secretary and guards, Zhang Kun looked sideways at Ma Yinchu, whose face was pale, "I'm sorry, my lord, there is indeed a very important meeting, do you think you should rest here or go to the lounge outside to rest......"

Zhang Kun just didn't want to be stopped by Ma Yinchu and couldn't get out, and at the same time, there were too many confidential documents in the office, so he had to ring the bell to summon the guards; And Ma Yin's heart was furious when he first saw the guard and the gun on the guard's waist, and his blank mind never thought about what Zhang Kun was going to do, but now he heard that he just wanted to arrange for himself to rest, so he made up his mind, "Zhang Xingjian, don't forget, no matter how the National Bank is, it is also a state, you are just a general office!" ”

Seeing that Ma Yinchu didn't stop him, Zhang Kun was relieved, he didn't talk anymore, just hurriedly hugged his fists and left-everyone in the conference room was already waiting. (To be continued.) )
