() These Eight Banners princes have all gone through a period of inhuman torture. In order to take out all their assets from them, Feng Jun conducted a fatigue interrogation on these people. How could the Eight Banners nobles who have always been pampered receive this kind of treatment? Days and nights without sleep, without end.

What's more terrible is that many of the Eight Banners smoke opium. It's okay not to eat or drink, but without opium, the sky is almost collapsed. After three or five days of torture, these people have opened their mouths one after another, and deposited them in foreign banks. Almost all the funds were spit out.

This is also the reason why Zhang Tinglan didn't kill them all. If all these people were killed, the foreigner's bank would never hand over the huge deposits.Regardless of how Westerners advocate the so-called spirit of contract, in fact, this group of people is the best at exploiting loopholes.

If the owner of the deposit is dead, they will naturally be able to swallow the funds, and it will be difficult for Feng Jun to get the money out. Even if these Eight Banner princes are still alive, Feng Jun is frequently made things difficult when he goes out to get money.Facing the blackmail from these foreigners, Zhang Tinglan took a tough attitude, and even threatened these guys that if they dared to refuse to pay, they would immediately make the matter public, causing their credit to collapse.

The big powers have a large number of banks in China, and the voices of these banks are also very loud, but they all have a common problem, that is, there is a serious shortage of deposit reserves, and there is no real money at all. In the eyes of these guys, the signboard of foreigners It is enough, the identity of the great powers is their credit, so they are playing empty-handed white wolf tricks in China.

Zhang Tinglan holds Fengtian Bank in his hand, and knows these things very well, so when these guys want to play tricks, Zhang Tinglan directly pokes their souls. Faced with Zhang Tinglan's threat, these people dare not take it lightly. It's really not worth it to ruin your reputation with tens of millions, so Feng Jun got all the money out.

Seeing that the accumulation of several lifetimes has fallen into the hands of Feng Jun, these Eight Banners are completely desperate. They have been idle for several lifetimes, not doing anything serious, just pointing to the wealth of the family to live, and now these properties have been deprived , I really can't think of another way to survive.

But at this time, Feng Jun was quite generous, and he didn't kill them all. Instead, he gave some money to each family, and the minimum was 100 oceans. Continue to squander, even if you give [-] million, it's useless.

Therefore, those princes of the Eight Banners who committed minor crimes and paid money more happily, all received the money and were released. Only a small number of diehards remained, and they would continue to be squeezed. In addition, all the people in the Forbidden City were dismissed. Everyone gave Dayang 20 yuan and allowed them to bring some of their own clothes, and then they were all dismissed smoothly.

In addition, guys like Eunuch Liu who have committed crimes on their backs must be carefully interrogated to recover all their property.In the end, Concubine Jin and a dozen people, together with the little emperor Pu Yi and a hundred thousand oceans, walked out of the Forbidden City step by step.

The soldiers and reporters witnessed the last emperor leaving sadly, and all gave out heartfelt cheers. The last garbage of the old era was finally swept out. The Forbidden City is no longer exclusive to the royal family, but has become a The Palace Museum is accessible to all citizens.

Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Xueliang entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and found out the emperor's dragon robe. Anyone can wear it, and then sit on the dragon chair to feel the incomparable imperial power of the past.Most of Fengjun's soldiers were from poor families. This entry was an eye-opener, and now they can wear dragon robes again and enjoy the emperor's addiction. They are so happy.

The majestic and sacred Hall of Supreme Harmony was full of laughter, everyone was unscrupulous, and the reporters were also taking pictures frequently, preparing to choose the one who laughed the most and publish it on the newspaper. After all, an era is over like this.

The expulsion of Puyi raised the prestige of Fengjun to a new level. All major newspapers are talking about this matter, and they also praised Zhang Tinglan, praising Fengjun as a real new-style army, which is the same as the old feudal army. The era is completely cut, and Zhang Tinglan is a young general and an idol of the era.

The newspapers are lively and lively, and the biggest benefit is that the number of young students who followed Feng Jun to go outside the customs has increased sharply, with a total of more than 1000. This is not the era when college students in later generations travel everywhere. Nowadays, only a handful of people who can read and write are rare. Moreover, many of these more than 1000 people are still very valuable college students, and there may be a lot of talents among them.

Arranging these students to go north, Zhang Tinglan reported the situation of the Forbidden City to Lao Duan at the same time, and asked Duan Qirui to send someone to manage the Forbidden City.

In fact, the old Duan was both happy and somewhat dissatisfied with Fengjun's expulsion of Puyi. He was happy that Puyi was driven away, and Beiyang could save a huge sum of 400 million yuan every year. In his eyes, the expulsion of Puyi was such a big event that he was not notified in advance at all.

Fortunately, these annoying Fengjun were finally leaving, and Lao Duan was really a little scared, wondering what tricks these beards would come up with again.

When handing over the Forbidden City, Zhang Tinglan had already ordered his subordinates to take away all the main gold, silver and jewelry, and some valuable cultural relics. It's still not safe to leave things to Beiyang, and maybe they will face the danger of theft afterward.

A simple estimate shows that the funds and treasures taken from the Forbidden City are worth more than 200 million. As for the cultural relics, there is no way to measure them, they are all priceless treasures.In addition, about 300 million yuan was knocked out from those eunuchs, and these eunuchs also stole a lot of palace treasures, all of which were chased back by Feng Jun and fell into their own pockets.

After everything was almost settled, Zhang Tinglan took his subordinates and left the capital with a generous income.Of course, there was one more person to deal with, and that was the famous Kang Youwei. Ever since he was blackmailed, this Kang Sheng had been extremely decadent, crying and laughing at times, as if he was crazy.

"Zhuoyan, if you want me to say it, I will shoot Kang Youwei directly. Anyway, this guy has low character and dirty behavior, and he is also one of the culprits of the restoration. It is a waste of food to keep people like him alive. Why bother to return him?" Give it to Liang Qichao, save a dog's life?"

"I also want to shoot him, not only Kang Youwei, but also Zhang Xun, the old bureaucrats who were restored together, and the army that harmed the people in Beiyang. These are the dregs of the old era. If they are not cleaned up, this The country cannot be reborn."

Zhang Tinglan sighed: "At the end of the day, we are still weak. We cannot completely declare war on the old era. We can only get as much wealth as possible. However, after we have this money, give us another five years, and Fengtian will be able to turn the world upside down." After ten years, we dare to challenge the big powers.”

"People often say that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, so let's work hard for ten years to make Fengjun stronger." Zhang Xueliang said: "Zhuoyan, can you help me and tell my father that I am going to manage the air force."

"Hanqing, Fengjun's air force has not been formally established yet, and flying is very dangerous, so you better not get involved!"

"Zhuoyan, you don't know, that day when I saw He Shilong and the others flying in the air, I was extremely envious at that time. Maybe this is fate. I have been thinking about this for the past few days. I am sure enough to manage the air force. good."

Seeing his firm attitude, Zhang Tinglan smiled and said, "It's rare that the young commander has such an idea, I will definitely help!"

After leaving Beijing, Zhang Tinglan and the others did not rush back to Fengtian, but went to Tianjin first. The first thing Zhang Tinglan wanted to see was the Dagu Shipyard. Prepare to move out of the customs.

However, relocating a shipyard is not a trivial matter. Fengtian has set aside a section of coastline in Jinxi City for the shipyard to use. The so-called Jinxi City is the Huludao of later generations, and it is also the best condition for the development of the shipbuilding industry in the Northeast. It is one of the best areas. Historically, Fengjun's sea power also used this as its base camp.

In the entire three northeastern provinces, the best conditions for the development of shipbuilding industry and naval power are in Lushun and Dalian, but it is a pity that Lushun is still controlled by Ri himself, and the Fengjun has no way to get involved. This is also Zhang Tinglan's heart disease. As long as the Dagu Shipyard is in control, the horn of Fengjun's development of sea power will be sounded. Sooner or later, Japan will be driven out of the three eastern provinces. The Nanman Railway and Luda Port are all things Fengjun must get!

On the way to Dagu, Zhang Tinglan's thoughts kept diverging, but after arriving at the Dagu factory, Zhang Tinglan was a little disappointed. The whole Dagu factory did not have the prosperity that the shipyard should have. Extremely depressed.

The factory area is dilapidated, with weeds everywhere, and the machines can be seen from a distance are rusty and lifeless.After arriving in front of the factory, there were only a hundred or so people waiting here. The leader was a man in his 40s, who was Wu Yulin, the director of the shipbuilding institute.

He once studied in Germany, and is proficient in shipbuilding and mechanical maintenance. He is a rare naval talent. One can imagine the hardships involved in posting advertisements, undertaking various projects, and relying on oneself to make money and maintain the operation of the factory.

Only a few days ago, Wu Yulin learned that the Dagu Shipbuilding Plant had been transferred to Fengjun and became Fengtian's property.

Hearing that Fengjun was going to send someone to inspect, Wu Yulin could only bring his workers to greet him early.Zhang Tinglan also noticed these so-called workers. They were all in ragged clothes, and some of them were wearing thick ripped cotton clothes. Their colors could not be distinguished at all, like beggars and refugees.

"Everyone, it's the first time we meet, and you will be under the command of the Fengjun from now on. There is nothing to serve as a meeting gift. Starting today, each worker's wages will be doubled, and each worker will be given a ten-dollar bonus!" rs! .
