.

There were only six members of the meeting, including Zhao Gang, Zhang, Wu Junsheng, Tan Fenglin, and Tang Yi, who represented the most core part of the Northern Alliance. Zhao Gang briefly introduced the situation.

"Now, Japanese average has gone to Taiwan. The day before yesterday, and after fierce battle, they occupied Aude. After investigation, the total force of Japanese average is only 7,000, and they are not carrying large-caliber artillery. See if you have any ideas, you can tell them directly."

"As far as I know, Sandiaojiao Aodi. The water is deep and the waves are flat. ::.[. But one thing is not good. The terrain near Aodi is like a gourd. The intersection of Hulu is Sandiaoling. Where is it easy to defend and difficult to attack? The mountains are wide and can be blocked with artillery fire. It is really a one-man who is the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it. Don't the Japanese know the terrain here? If it were me, they would land directly in Keelung and capture Keelung, and half of the whole Taiwan would be defeated. Not like this, after the Aodi, they would hit Sandiaoling again, and then hit Ruifang again, and finally defeat Keelung, which would have taken two troubles."

"Yes, then look, why don't you attack Keelung directly?" Zhao Gang kicked the ball back directly.

"This should be because the Japanese have a weak foundation and are afraid of losing warships. They would rather use more people to add this bottomless pit than to damage the warships they bought with huge sums of money. When it comes to money, we have to ask our God of Finance Liang, who knows this best."

Liang Shiyi looked at everyone and talked helplessly about Japan's economic situation:

"In 1896, the Japanese economy had a certain degree: according to its own economic scale, many of them were completed through loans from the United States. At present, the total amount of foreign debt in Japan has reached 100 million yen, which is approximately equivalent to 5,000 silver dollars in my country. Although military strength can be increased in the short term, if such investment is not rewarded, then Japan's economy will completely collapse in two years."

"So based on this determination, Japan will never expect peace. The battle with Japan is not something we can avoid by unilateral concessions." Finally, Liang Caishen gave a conclusion very professionally.

Zhao Gang asked loudly with an anxious look on his face

"Then can our local finance support a head-on war with Japan?"

Liang Caishen obviously has no talent for acting, and the village monkey who made Zhao Gang blush in one sentence is like the butt

"President Zhao is really forgetful. If you hadn't reminded me to pay attention to Japan's fiscal revenue and expenditure situation, how could I check Japan's loans if I had nothing to do? How long have you planned the war against Japan? You don't know what we are doing now?"

Everyone laughed, Zhao Gang was also thick-skinned, and after everyone laughed, he said:

"God of Wealth, you and I know both, but many people don't know. Please explain it to me."

"As of 121, 1896, we had a total of thirteen nominal provinces, but in fact, we only had eight provinces in the northeast, Zhili, Shandong, Shanxi, Jiangsu, and Anhui, while the other five provinces such as Mongolia, Xinjiang, Qinghai, Gansu, and Shaanxi were just nominally seeking us. In fact, they were all working on their own, and there were many people in the local emperors. In the most serious case, Mongolia, with the secret support of the Russians, was ready to establish a national name."

Therefore, the Ministry of Finance prepared 60 million reserves for safeguarding national unity. Once Mongolia and Xinjiang experience abnormal movements, war will begin immediately.

This is the first expenditure, and the second expenditure is the refugee governance expenditure in Gansu and Shaanxi. Unlike other provinces, Gansu has always been a place of war and bandits are rampant. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, it was even more difficult to manage. Large stakes of bandits were divided into three or five counties, small stakes of bandits were divided into one county town, and there were also separatist areas, that is, a township, and many places were like cow hair, which was really unstoppable.

The army passed by. These bandits scattered like birds and beasts, but when the army retreated, the bandits came back. In order to completely eliminate these bandits, the Ministry of Finance prepared 4,000 reserve funds for bandit suppression.

Also, the Yellow River and Haihe River in the north are all rivers of disaster. In recent years, due to poor financial conditions in the Qing Dynasty, many places of river engineering have slackened. After investigation, it was necessary to have special management costs of 2,000 yuan for the Yellow River and 700 yuan for the Haihe River.

In addition, there is also a special allowance of 200 for Taiwan's cross-sea combat.

At this time, Zhang asked: "Is 300 a little less?"

Liang Caishen has always been respectful to this talented man and replied with a smile:

"Mr. Zhang, you are too worried. The money for the weapons and equipment and personnel is paid by Taiwanese. The two million is a subsidy for soldiers who go to Taiwan. Because Taiwan is hot, there is an additional part of the high temperature fee, eight yuan per month, and a 5 dangerous allowance for the land in the war. It is about 260,000 yuan per month, and a total of 300 yuan per year."

Tang Shaoyi knew this very well, and when he heard Liang Caishen talk about it, he couldn't help but run Zhao Gang:

"President Zhao, I think you should do business, no one can count you."

Liang Caishen Ship Zhang had no objection, so he continued to talk

"There are also railway construction funds of 30 million yuan, education funds of 30 million yuan, and military expenditures of 30 million yuan. A total of 230 million yuan will be required next year.

Our current fiscal revenue is 120 million special income (earnings from selling steel plants), 50 million war bonds, 10 million railway bonds, 15 million naval bonds, and an estimated revenue of 60 million. Total 255 million

So the current fiscal surplus is 25 million yuan. Optimistically, this money can safely pay the salaries of officials from all over the country. It can also deal with natural disasters and man-made disasters once or twice, and it can also support 10,000 or 20,000 people to pay for one or two months. In addition, we can't do anything."

Except for Zhao Gang who had already heard this conclusion, everyone else was shocked to take it, especially Wu Junsheng and other military personnel. They originally thought that the iron plant had bought more than 100 million yuan, and even if they fought, they would not be short of money. Unexpectedly, the finances were like this.

Wu Junsheng was the first to ask: "Mr. Liang, we don't understand the numbers. As you mean, our economic situation is not very good, isn't it?"

"That's right, we have obtained more than we expected. Now there are some indigestion. What we need most now is rest and recuperation. By the time we digest these territories in a year, our income will double, and our expenditure will not be so much. Only about 30 million will be more than that."
