"Hahaha!"
Hearing Long Yun's innocent words, Tang Jie couldn't help but laugh out loud."Righteous, righteous."
"Yes, our Yunnan army, our southwest army, has been upholding righteousness. Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guizhou have sacrificed so much manpower, material resources, and financial resources, and so many men have fallen on the road to charge.”
"But Uncle Yun, open your eyes and see what the national team is doing. First, they stripped Liu Xiang of his military power, and then they want to make you invisible.”
"The four big families have already monopolized the lifeline of the country. The financial industry, yarn industry, mining industry, and agriculture have assets of more than 20 billion US dollars.”
"As early as the end of the Qing Dynasty, even if our country's industrial level could not compare to the world's first-class countries, we at least had a complete weapon production line.”
"But now? They couldn't even produce large-caliber artillery, let alone planes and tanks.”
"Why? Because some geniuses say that it's better to buy than to make, so when we were blocked by the Japanese, we couldn't buy anything and became anxious.”
"In the early days of the war, the whole country donated enough money to buy 100 of the world's most advanced fighter jets. However, Madam Jiang kept the money in the United States bank. In the middle of the war, she couldn't buy any planes.”
"I'm not exaggerating here. For Yan Huang to fall to this point, his bald head has to bear most of the responsibility.”
His powerful words echoed throughout the office.
Long Yun fell into silence. He couldn't refute Tang Jie, because what Tang Jie said was the truth. The national team had lost their initiative when the four families were in power. They had been consuming the people's energy, accumulating wealth, and seeking personal gain.
"Uncle Yun."
"The three southwestern provinces are not only the foundation laid down by my father, but also your painstaking efforts.”
"We can't let them continue to mess around like this. When the time comes, they'll be poked in the spine by the people of the southwest.”
Looking at Long Yun, Tang Jie said in pain.
The three southwestern provinces had contributed the most to the war, but in the end, they were the poorest provinces.
From western Yunnan to central Guizhou, and then to Sichuan and Sichuan, many people could not eat and ran to the streets to sell their children.
The national team's exorbitant taxes were increasing, but the national team was losing time and time again on the battlefield. It was a joke.
"What do you plan to do?"
Long Yun raised his head and looked at Tang Jie.
"I plan to reorganize the three southwestern provinces and drive the four great clans out of the southwest.”
"This slaughter is just an appetizer for Baldy. The real main dish is still to come.”
"Now, most of the mines in the southwest are in the hands of the Tang family, and the government affairs of Sichuan Province are still in the hands of Liu Xiang.”
"The top priority is to first open the Southwest Bank, cast good coins, expel bad coins, return the wealth of the people to them, and calm down the prices.”
"Regarding this point, the officials from Sichuan and Guizhou have already agreed. The only thing missing is Dian Province. The headquarters of the Southwest Bank is located in Dian Province, in Spring City.”
"In this way, the national government will no longer have control over the financial and local mineral resources. Naturally, they won't be able to oppress the people.”
"The three provinces will use their finances to establish the Southwest Joint Defense Command. Uncle Yun, you will be the commander-in-chief, and Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui will be the deputy commanders. At the same time, push Liu Wenhui to the position of governor of Guizhou Province. The Southwest Joint Defense Command will set up the three provinces 'armed police corps to maintain local security and eliminate local bandits.”
"The commanders of the armed police corps in the three provinces will be you, Uncle Yun, Liu Xiang, and Liu Wenhui respectively.”
" There are six divisions under the provincial headquarters, and each division has 5,000 people. They are equipped with rifles, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, and 12 Type 75 field cannons. The three provincial armed police divisions are stationed in the provincial capitals of the three provinces. There are many soldiers, but not many. 90,000 people are enough to stop 300,000 national troops.”
Tang Jie revealed his plan.
Instantly.
Long Yun's face changed.
This plan was huge. It was huge enough to integrate the finances and mines of the three southwestern provinces. At the same time, it gathered the strength of the three provinces, which was equivalent to forming a local force.
"No, you can't."
"If we do this now, we're going against righteousness.”
Long Yun didn't even think about it before he raised his objection.
What a joke!
At the crucial point of the entire country's resistance against the Japanese, the three southwestern provinces announced the construction of 90,000 troops. Wasn't this clearly telling everyone that they were going to cause trouble?
Not to mention whether Bald Man would agree or not, which of those local officials would allow the southwest to do this? The people of Yan Huang would definitely curse the southwest until they sh * t.
"Uncle Yun."
"Who said we're going to do it together?"
"Even if we want to set up the Southwest Armed Police Command now, we don't have any weapons and equipment.”
Tang Jie said meaningfully.
Finance could be consolidated, resources could be consolidated, but where would guns, cannons, and even bullets come from?
Not to mention purchasing from the outside, the Yunnan army's previous channels had already been destroyed by the Japanese's attack. As for the Yunnan-Myanmar highway, the Sun Never Sets and the United States would only support Baldy. There was no reason to cause trouble at this critical juncture.
"Then you mean..."
Long Yun didn't know what Tang Jie was thinking.
Tang Jie slowly said,""Build high walls, store up food, and slowly become king.”
"First, use the power of the three southwestern provinces to move Liu Wenhui to the position of governor of Guizhou Province.”
"After that, the three provinces will unite with the Tang family to jointly establish the Southwest Bank. The three provinces will each hold 15% of the shares, and the Tang family will hold 55%.”
"At that time, the Xinan Bank will start casting Yanhuang Coins according to the standard of Dian Yuan. The new Yanhuang Coins will be exchanged with the ocean at a ratio of 1:1。”
"There's no need to use paper coins. Yanhuang coins are divided into one yuan, five jiao, ten jiao, five cents, and one cent, one yuan is equal to ten jiao, and one jiao is equal to ten cents.”
"Yanhuang Coins are like the ocean coins, 90% silver mixed with 10% copper, cast into one yuan, and the corners and cents will be reduced according to the proportion, or even reduced.”
Whoosh!
Hearing that, Long Yun's eyes sparkled.
From the end of the Qing Dynasty until now, only the first edition of Big Yuan was the most valuable and widely recognized by the common people.
The main reason was that the first edition of Yuan Datou was made of the most exquisite materials. It contained about 23.9 grams of pure silver, about 90%, and the rest was copper.
Later, it was changed to 89% silver, and then 80% silver. The local casting was even lower, and some were even only about 60%.
If the Yanhuang Coins were made according to this standard, they would definitely win the favor of the people. Soon, they would be able to drive the 'legal currency' issued by the national government out of the market.
Moreover, dividing Yanhuang Coins into Yuan, Jiao, and Fen would be equivalent to the silver and wen of the Qing Dynasty. It would be even simpler and more convenient.
In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, it was set that 1 tael of gold was equal to 10 taels of silver, and 1 tael of silver was equal to 1000 wen =1 string of coins.
A thousand wen in a purse was extremely heavy. Now, one yuan was equivalent to 10 jiao, which could be exchanged for two 50 jiao, one jiao was equivalent to 10 jiao, and it could also be exchanged for two 50 cents and ten 10 cents. This was much more convenient.
