"What are you giving him?"

Guan Zhenming's suggestion not only made Xiong Xiling curious, but also Yuan Shikai became curious now. It is not easy to cheat people and make people willing.

"Yes! If you don't give him something, he will definitely not be willing to rashly build such a railway, and it will cost such a big price!"

Guan Mianjun nodded vigorously and looked at Yuan Shikai at the same time.

"However, it depends on how courageous the president has!"

A word made Yuan Shikai open his eyes slightly, stare at Guan Zhenming for a while, and suddenly burst into laughter, and then said in a strong Henan accent.

"Dare you, for the sake of the government's financial stability, I dare to take on the hat of selling the country. Do you have more courage than this?"

When he spoke, Yuan Shikai's eyes showed some helplessness. He was afraid that only he knew the helplessness that was being accused of being a stolen country by the revolutionaries of all parties, but this country had to be sold. If not, this country would be no longer a country!

His eyes suddenly opened, and Tang Zhaoyi could hardly believe what his ears heard. Looking at Xiong Xiling, he was stunned for a while before asking.

"Did the president agree?"

The tone was full of doubt.

"Um!"

Xiong Xiling, who felt like a big stone in Panasonic, nodded, and took another sip of tea after replying. After explaining the methods that Guan Mianjun had mentioned one by one, he felt really thirsty.

"The President agreed! But,"

Take another sip of tea.

"According to the president's wishes, it will cost at least 20,000!"

"Twenty thousand!"

Listening to this price, Tang Zhaoyi was shocked. The price was too high, so how could Li Zicheng agree?

"It's a loan. Guan Mianjun means that we will give Lu Quan to Li Zicheng for free, and then he borrowed a sum of 25,000 taels per kilometer to the government, which is an interest-free loan!"

Although this matter has no sign yet, Xiong Xiling has been much more relaxed now. In his opinion, this matter is probably a matter of 10. Just after this month, by the time of pay next month, the financial crisis that has plagued the government for several months will be solved.

"oh,"

Responding lightly, Tang Zhaoyi immediately calculated the benefits of this "business" to the government. On the surface, the government seemed to have suffered a loss, but with 36 million taels of silver, at least for half a year, the government no longer had to worry about the military's mutiny due to financial issues.

"It seems that we have to have a good talk with him!"

"Prime Minister, the President means..."

With a slight raising of his eyes, Xiong Xiling's face showed a little bit of disgrace.

"It will be contacted by the Ministry of Finance and Secretary-General of the Presidential Office Liang Shiyi and Guan Mianjun!"

Listening to Xiong Xiling's answer, Tang Zhaoyi just smiled bitterly and nodded. As expected, after his gaze slightly changed, he said half-smilingly.

"oh!"

He was slightly stunned, and then Tang Zhaoyi smiled slightly again.

"I'm afraid that Yang Xizi will be disappointed!"

"That's right? Yang Xizi is busy, but now she has made a wedding dress for Guan Mianjun!"

"Guan Mianjun..."

As he muttered this name, Tang Zhaoyi's expression seemed very interesting. After a while, he spoke.

"This matter must not be done by Guan Mianjun, if it was expected..."

"Prime Minister, do you mean Liuhe Company?"

Xiong Xiling was also a little confused. He had seen before that the president had doubts about this, but there were a few points that really didn't make sense.

"It won't be Liuhe Company. If it were Liuhe, they would definitely not have offered a few of the conditions! The market price redemption path in the past twenty years seems to have allowed Liuhe to take advantage, but in fact it is..."

With a cold smile, Tang Zhaoyi knew that the negotiations would not go so smoothly.

"But it will be broken in twenty years!"

"You want to cut off my lifeline of Liuhe!"

While sighing, Mu Xiangyue, who was sitting upright in the meeting room of the Ministry of Finance, almost wanted to throw the book of appointment in her hand to the ground.

"Twenty years, twenty years later, the government acquires railways and related companies' jurisdiction at market prices!"

When Mu Xiangyue was thinking about this content in her heart, she felt a little angry in her eyes, and these people were too unreasonable.

Three days ago, Finance Minister Xiong Xiong Xiling made an appointment with him and revealed the government's meaning. The negotiations officially began today.

The 1,800-kilometer Longhai Railway rights were given for the exchange for the underwriting of 45 million taels of government bonds by Liuhe Company. The interest on the loan was 5%. The issuance price was nine deductions, and the actual payment was eight or four deductions. In fact, the company only needed to underwrite 37.5 million taels of bonds.

What is even more surprising is that the draft loan contract clearly stated that "all railway companies are exempt from land tax". Except for the scope of railway territories and the details of railway land, there is almost nothing to negotiate with them. Who would have thought that it would be impossible to accept the last article of the contract in any case.

"Twenty years later, the government will regard its operations and acquire railways and related companies' jurisdiction at market prices!"

Directly breaking out of the details, Mu Xiangyue proposed the most critical one in a straightforward manner. In fact, he could see that for the government, they could offer any preferential conditions, but this one was fatal.

"Manager Mu, this clause, that is, twenty years later, if necessary, the government will acquire the Longhai Railway and its related subsidiary lines from Liuhe Company at a preferential price, and use the company's land!"

When answering the question, Xiong Xiling did not see any inappropriateness on her face, and she did not see any helplessness in negotiating with the bank group. Three days ago, as soon as the news of her formal appointment with Mu Xiangyue came out, the representative of the British HSBC Bank visited her and said that she could make appropriate concessions on the terms of the large loan. If the loan of Liuhe could be completed, then the loan of the bank group would become useless, and they would inevitably give up a lot of unreasonable conditions.

In Xiong Xiling's view, all the conditions for Liuhe Company to transfer the right of road free of charge in exchange for loans must be considered generous, and according to the president's wishes, you can even make concessions, but the most important thing about success or failure is the supplementary clause of the last article.

And this is exactly what the president needs. In the original words of the president, he must leave a backup plan for Liuhe.

Looking at Li Zicheng who pretended to be silent and kept silent for a long time, Mu Xiangyue knew that she needed to dress up as a white face.

"General Xiong, if the company accepts this condition, it will undoubtedly give up the company's lifeline in twenty years!"

Mu Xiangyue's tone suppressed her dissatisfaction, but she tried her best to calm herself down.

"If Liuhe accepts the Longhai Railway, then for the needs of the company's development, all industries will inevitably be concentrated on both sides of the railway, especially on the stations along the way. If twenty years later, even if the government acquires it at the market price, wouldn't Liuhe use its own talent to borrow nearly 40 million yuan from the government to help the government help the government. Twenty years later, the government plundered Liuhe to gather financial and material resources to develop railways and related industrial companies for 20 years. President Xiong, it is impossible not to say that the government's abacus is really a good idea!"

With a sigh, Mu Xiangyue had to admire these people in her heart. When these people negotiated with foreigners, they seemed to be treasoning the country in every way, but in fact, it was because they were not as powerful as others. If they were as powerful as others, there were a few people willing to treasoning the country. Now facing Liuhe Company, they who are stronger than others will naturally not make any recognition.

With a helpless smile, Mu Xiangyue looked at Li Zicheng, but saw that he was just lowering his head and seemed to be writing something there, obviously he looked unhappy.

At this moment, he saw him put down his pen, picked up the tea cup, and smiled at Xiong Xiling opposite him, all of whom was not sure what they were talking about just now.
