() Miki shifted the focus of support to Feng Delin. The forces of the 27th and 28th divisions were originally between brothers. If Feng Delin received strong support from Japan, he would definitely be Lao Zhang's strong enemy.

Zhang Tinglan, in order to divert the Japanese's attention and at the same time prepare to consume Japan's financial resources, designed a plan together with Fred to let the Russian government borrow money from Japan and purchase Japanese arms at the same time. The Japanese military enterprises will definitely go crazy with joy. The First World War is almost a bottomless pit, devouring all munitions crazily, and at the same time bringing innumerable profits.

But these Japanese people would never have thought that the dignified Tsarist Russia would have a lifespan of less than two years, and that the Red regime would follow, and all loans would be resolutely rejected.

Zhang Tinglan smiled and said to Fred: "I think Japan will definitely take the bait, but you have to ask Japan to provide long-term loans as much as possible, and it is best to exceed the limit of Russia's tolerance."

Fred nodded: "Zhang, it's not difficult, but I only have one question about this plan. Even if Russia collapses, the new regime will still inherit the debts of the old regime, just like the Republic of China and the Qing Dynasty. The power of various countries in China has not been reduced at all. If it comes to that time, wouldn’t it be helping Japan to expand its commercial interests? This is not in line with your style of doing things!"

Zhang Tinglan glanced at Fred and said, "Old friend, do you understand what the majority party stands for?"

When Fred heard these three words, his eyes widened immediately, and he said in surprise: "Zhang, you don't want the majority party to replace Tsarist Russia. Let me tell you, it will be a disaster for the world. They are a bunch of The devil is the natural enemy of capital, you won't be so confused as to support the enemy?"

"Old friend, I admit that their ideas are extreme, but Russia is in a very difficult situation. The more desperate it is, the more extreme ideas will be accepted. The Chinese pay attention to going with the trend and going against the trend, since the majority party is irresistible Chaos, simply add fuel to the flames, support them, and disrupt Russia."

Fred also calmed down at this time. He knew Russia better than Zhang Tinglan. In fact, the Russians had a self-destructive factor in their bones, and their artworks were generally dark and depressing.They will definitely go crazy in desperation. This is culturally determined, and the majority party may actually be able to hold power.

As a Jew, Fred was very clear about the propositions of the majority party. He even read Das Kapital. Although he hated the views in it, he had to say that it was a great book that exposed the evils of capital.

He stood up with great emotion, walked around twice, and then said: "Zhang, do you think that the majority party that believes in capitalism will come to power, and then according to their political views, the loan of Ri himself will inevitably be wiped out?"

"Almost!" The fact that the majority party defaulted on large French loans was one of the reasons for France's decline after World War I.

"Zhang, their views are very extreme. Didn't you think they would bite us back?"

"Old friend, even if they are a dog, they will bite the European powers first. What we want is to use this opportunity to strengthen our own strength as soon as possible to cope with this drastic change in the world!"

Fred fell into silence, his mind began to think quickly.Zhang Tinglan, on the other hand, thought everything through very clearly. Russia had become a red empire with unprecedented power and increased threats to China.Supporting the majority party and making Russia red as soon as possible seems to be supporting the enemy, but it is not!

The most supportive of the majority party in Russia is Germany. They urgently need to get rid of the situation of fighting on two fronts, and this is something that cannot be changed.Supporting the majority party in the Far East is to make Russia more complete.At the same time, the majority party is not monolithic. There will inevitably be conflicts between the majority parties that rely on the support of Germany and those that rely on China. Their interest demands are also different. This is tantamount to mixing sand within the majority party.

This is the so-called mystery of following the trend. After careful consideration, Fred said, "Zhang, my initial thought of deploying in Russia was just to take advantage of the country's chaos, buy bureaucrats, and obtain Russian resources. But your handwriting Sure enough, you are much older than me, and you actually want to support the majority party and split Russia, I don’t think your President Yuan has this idea, you are a complete little lunatic.”

"I'm going to do even crazier things! After Commander Zhang ascends to the throne of Fengtian Commander, I can even help them train soldiers, and then let them turn Russia upside down!"

Fred was completely defeated by Zhang Tinglan's madness, but every Jewish banker is a madman, and their pursuit of capital is equally crazy, supporting the opposition, disrupting the order of a country, and then making huge profits, this kind of thing is not rare.

In the past, what the super consortium could do, Fred could only sigh in awe. Now that he has cooperated with Zhang Tinglan, he also has this kind of power. Just imagining the possible huge profits, his blood boils.

"Zhang, do you have a specific strategy?"

Zhang Tinglan thought for a while and said: "The first step is to establish a strong trade network and find out the current situation in Russia. The next step is to choose the right agent. We need both the majority party and the internal side of Tsarist Russia, and even the minority in Russia. Ethnicity should also be considered. We don’t have many chips in our hands, so we have to wait for the opportunity, and we can only intervene appropriately after Russia undergoes drastic changes!”

Fred nodded. Although Zhang Tinglan's proposition was crazy, from a strategic point of view, it was very cautious and quite feasible, which also showed that Zhang Tinglan was still a rational person.

The two finalized the plan, and Fred said with a smile, "Zhang, we've decided on the layout in Russia in advance, so let's talk about how to deal with our friends in Japan later!"

"Compared to owning wealth, I prefer to only deserve wealth. The former needs to be earned by myself, while the latter uses other people's money to do things for myself. We can use Japanese loans to complete the layout in Russia .”

"It's a very incisive statement. If you become a banker, your achievements will definitely be even more amazing!"

The trap they set for the Japanese was not complicated. Fred had already persuaded the senior Russian officials to let them release the news and prepare to expand arms imports. Then Daosheng Bank, relying on the authority to manage the approved arms imports, made a report to the Russian government. Present a report suggesting that Russia consider purchasing Japanese weapons.

All that is left is to wait for Ri himself to take the bait, and Ri himself, who has been fascinated by the huge profits of weapons, will definitely work hard to facilitate this matter, and will also provide huge loans, and the money will fall into the pockets of Daosheng Bank.

Moreover, Fred and Zhang Tinglan also bribed the Russian dignitaries, so the weapons produced in Japan may not reach the hands of Russian soldiers at all, but become the equipment of the Feng army.After Russia collapsed, Japan lost both property, but Feng Jun ate meat and soup.

Using Japan's funds and weapons to turn against Japan itself is the most refreshing thing in the world. Fred and Zhang Tinglan, two foxes, one big and one small, finalized the matter.

This kind of thing must be done in a steady and steady manner, and no flaws should be exposed, so Fred and Zhang Tinglan remained silent for the time being.

Zhang Tinglan has a little leisure time, but he has a lot of things to do. First of all, the martial arts corps has been fully formed. This is Zhang Tinglan's team. The objects of military training, of course, also include North Korean refugees.

The Wu Jing Corps was divided into two parts, one was responsible for the security of Fengtian City, and the other was responsible for clearing up and suppressing everywhere. Beginning to adapt to this well-equipped, rigorously organized, and innocent law enforcement team, the law and order in Fengtian began to change greatly.

In addition, the first batch of machines was shipped from Russia, and several factories had to be implemented. Zhang Tinglan also personally participated in the construction and provided assistance as much as possible. These simple factories carried the hope of Fengtian Industry, so Zhang Tinglan couldn't help but ignore them.

The scale of Xingye's trade will also expand. With the expansion of Russia's commerce and trade, not only luxury goods, but also ordinary daily necessities will also be smuggled in large quantities.Although the profits of ordinary commodities are not high, the demand is huge, and many Fengtian can produce by themselves, so the smuggling operation can also benefit Fengtian's business.

Of course, those who can participate are businessmen who have already invested in Xingye Company. They are connected with Zhang Tinglan's interests to get this preferential treatment. These businessmen are also very happy. In the past, some people doubted Zhang Tinglan's ability, but now they are all devoted to making a fortune together.

At the same time, the construction of the North Market has also entered the fast lane. Due to the freezing winter in the Northeast, which seriously affects the outdoor construction, only some indoor decoration can be carried out.Therefore, Qiao Ruixuan arranged for the workers to lay the ground first, dig the underground pipelines, and prepare materials.Before the freezing this year, it is estimated that only one-fifth of the project can be repaired, and the overall construction work will take two to three years. <You can enter in one day, this speed is already amazing, Zhang Tinglan also expressed his satisfaction, he also took the initiative to improve the treatment of workers, and also formulated the compensation standard for work-related injuries.

Workers who are injured during construction can be compensated. In the past, workers were responsible for all risks in their work, and their life and death were at their own risk. Now Zhang Tinglan took the initiative to take on this part of the responsibility. The enthusiasm of the workers was unprecedentedly high, and the efficiency has improved a lot.

Wang Yongjiang, a nominal consultant, also came to check on him from time to time. He and Zhang Tinglan became more and more familiar, and the two often argued about some issues. He and Zhang Tinglan became close friends.

Just as the work of all parties was progressing smoothly, President Yuan Da of Beijing finally approved Zhang Xiluan's request for resignation. It was time for Zhang Xiluan, the old governor, to leave, and the throne of Fengtian Governor was vacant. Fengtian master has become the focus of attention of all parties.

At this time, Yuan Shikai suddenly ordered Zhang Zuolin to go to Beijing to report on his work, and Lao Zhang was overjoyed. The long-awaited opportunity finally came.
