    This was the second time Liang Yanqing was surprised today. It was far more intense than the first time, and it also made him more concerned.

    Such a big thing as changing the cabinet seemed to be an understatement in Zhang Hanqing's mouth, but Liang Yanqing believed it was true.  With the strength of Fengxi, it is credible and not difficult to change agents (which is the case).  He only cares about one person.

    Ye Gongchuo, Chief of Transportation.

    In this era, it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to do anything they want to do, but there is no way.  In the early days of the Republic of China when the political structure was not yet complete, collusion between government and businessmen was the norm. Didn¡¯t all the wealthy owners in Beijing and Tianjin once hold a certain position in the central government?

    Liang Yanqing started his career as a comprador, so he knew how to look at people's eyes, so he also hoped to have a certain political status so that his business could be done well and big.  Zhang Hanqing was able to gain his recognition quickly because of his status as a young marshal.

    This was the purpose of his efforts to get his eldest son, Liang Laikui, into the government. Not long ago, the same was true for the future son-in-law he was looking for for his daughter, Miss Jiu.  Whether the Liang family enters politics in the future or continues to make achievements in the economy, forming a good relationship with the Ye family is a good move.

    Ye Charlie, Ye Gongchuo¡¯s nephew.

    Now, the young marshal is going to attack the Ye family!

    Liang Yanqing's heart was full of mixed emotions, and even Liang Qingzhu opened her mouth in disbelief.  She looked at Zhang Hanqing, who gave her a mysterious smile.

    Although Zhang Hanqing is at the age where "one can become a beauty in anger", his character is far from being limited by his youthful appearance. This decision was made after careful consideration.

    Ye Gongchuo was not just the chief of transportation, but the deeper reason was that he was the leader of the transportation department and had a community of interests with Zhou Ziqi, who was the chief of finance, and Zhang Hanqing who insisted on inviting Zhu Qiqian and Liang Shiyi to come out. In the political arena of the Republic of China, Ye Gongchuo was  He is a man who moves the wind and rain. To describe him as a "political roly-poly" is not wrong at all.  No matter in the late Qing Dynasty, Yuan Shikai era or when the Anhui clique was in power, they were all highly used.

    This group has strong characteristics of factional politics: it is indifferent to beliefs and pursues interests. It is an interest group between ancient cliques and modern political parties. Its influence involves internal affairs, diplomacy, finance, and financial fields, and is within the scope of its interests.  , monolithic.  Because its main members, especially the backbone elements, are all southerners.  For example, Ye Gongchuo, Guan Genglin, a native of Guangdong, Guan Mianjun, a native of Guangxi (already classified as Guangdong in later generations), etc.

    Someone once made statistics. In the Ministry of Transportation in Mali in the fifth year of the Republic of China, there were 13 people working in the Presidential Office, 31 people working in the Taxation Department, 32 people working in various taxation bureaus in Beijing, 40 people working in the Ministry of Transportation, and 8 people working in the Ministry of Transportation.  There are 5 people working in the Ministry of Finance, 5 people working in the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce, 3 people working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and 30 people working in other government agencies. It can be said that the company has deep roots.

    The ministries of the Republic of China were of a large-ministerial system. The Ministry of Transportation included four branches: railways, shipping, postal services, and telegraph transportation, plus a Bank of Communications.  Although this force is temporarily trailing behind the Feng Clan, due to its own strength, if the power of the Feng Clan is used, a new and important pole will be generated internally. This is not a blessing for the Feng Clan.

    Although the Transportation Clique quickly defected to the Feng Clan after the collapse of the Duan Qirui-Wan Clique, Zhang Hanqing was still very taboo about this group as the most influential since Yuan Shikai, especially when he reused its two major leaders.  .

    Political leader Liang Shiyi served as the first deputy director of the Tianjin Investment and Financing Commission. Although the spiritual leader of the Transportation Department, Zhu Qiqian, slowly faded out of the group and served as the deputy director of the Planning Commission and the person in charge of Guan Nei under the leadership of the Fengcheng Department and the mayor of Qinhuangdao City, he still  considered part of the group.  Both of them now hold high positions of power and have a major influence on the economic layout of Feng Clan in Guan.

    After the Zhang family separated military and political affairs again and again, they have successfully suppressed the influence of high-ranking military officials in politics, allowing Wang Yongjiang, Liu Shangqing and other civilized factions to take root and form a force in the high-ranking officials of the Fengcian faction. This is  Zhang Hanqing has been diligently pursuing the practice of governing the country with culture, which is one of the signs of moving towards a modern country.

    ????????????????????? However, the increased power of the Transportation Department will bring too many unsettling factors to his efforts. The most important thing is that the Transportation Department is only forced by the situation to move closer, not to surrender.

    Therefore, the idea of ????cutting off the power base of the transportation department first politically and eliminating the transportation department from the central | was born.  Elevating the status of the spiritual leader Zhu Qiqian and demoting the political leader Liang Shiyi are the accompanying steps.  This is why Zhu Qiqian serves as the actual mayor of Qinhuangdao, while Liang Shiyi can only serve as deputy director of the Tianjin Investment and Financing Commission, and the official position is vacant to wait for Liang Yanqing.

    It was not the Feng clique that started this process, but the Zhili clique.

    Originally, the Zhili clique was dissatisfied with the Transportation Department's shift to the Fengcian clique. Due to the situation at that time,After the war with Zhiwan, the need to rest and recuperate was finally compromised.  After the war, Cao Kun, the leader of the Zhili clique, found that he was gradually unable to effectively exercise influence on the central government.  Chief of the Interior Zhang Zhitan alone cannot reverse the situation in the cabinet.

    At this time, people sent by Zhang Hanqing came and reached an agreement with him: giving up the two cabinet positions he dreamed of, the Ministry of Transportation and the Ministry of Finance, in exchange for his recognition of the Northwest People's Army's changes in Shaanxi.  At this time, the Northwest People's Army, together with the Xu Lanzhou troops of the Feng Clan's original branch stationed in Shaanxi, had successfully penetrated into the south of the Wei River.  All that is missing is recognition from the Zhili, because according to the original agreement, southern Shaanxi should be controlled by the Zhili.

    ¡°This is the ferocious display of the People¡¯s Army once again after the glory of the northwest.  The barren northwest can no longer accommodate the ambitions of the existing People's Army.  Zhang Hanqing was very open-minded about the gains and losses of the two chiefs.

    With the exception of the Northeast, Northwest, and Tianjin, Tang, and Qin within the Pass, the Fengtian Clan has temporarily been unable to reach out to other provinces in the country, and it is not interested in managing the people's livelihood and infrastructure in these places.  The most critical thing is that for a central government with financial constraints, the role of these ministries is minimal, and it is far less beneficial than making a fortune.  Being able to sacrifice fame and gain real status is a business that both Zhang Hanqing and Zhang Zuolin are willing to do.

    But it was not the case with Cao Kun.  With the fat in his mouth on one side and Shaanxi where all the heroes are vying for the throne on the other, Cao Kun hesitated.  But when a wise man next to him who was dissatisfied with Wu Peifu said casually, he changed his mind: "The chaos in Shaanxi was all caused by Marshal Wu. What does Marshal do to get involved? It's better to get two chiefs as soon as possible."  First thing!"

    Cao Kun¡¯s praise for his good deeds determined that the job changes of Ye and Zhou, two backbones of the transportation department, were inevitable.

    In an understatement, the positions of two cabinet ministers were traded, which greatly touched Liang Yanqing.  The transportation department, which once dominated the political arena, is really nothing under power politics.

    Zhang Hanqing thought proudly, under such circumstances, would he still be willing to form an alliance with the Ye family through marriage?  Unexpectedly, he looked at Miss Liang Jiu and received a strange look in response.

    Old Man Liang also looked at the two of them unexpectedly at this time, with a strange look in his eyes.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
