Spy War 1929

Chapter 32
On the way to Chen's house, Chen Ledao thought about how to persuade Chen Lianshan for a while.Chen Lianshan was upright and had a tough temper, Chen Ledao felt that this trip would be a headache.

Lianshan Spinning Mill was once brilliant. During the First World War, the European and American powers were too busy fighting their own backyard wars, ignoring the situation in East Asia.It made China's national industry obtain a short spring, and there was a brief glory during that time.At that time, Chen Lianshan led the Lianshan Spinning Mill to develop hard and became a star enterprise in Shanghai.

It’s just that the good times didn’t last long. After the war, European and American powers once again shifted their eyes to this ancient land. After a short spring, the national industry soon encountered Waterloo. Spring was gone, and it was directly replaced by autumn. , and it was still late autumn approaching the severe winter.

Lianshan Spinning Mill belongs to the light industry, and the situation faced by the light industry was slightly better than that of the heavy industry, but in fact it was also facing the crisis of closing down.

Lianshan Cotton Mill has been able to persist until now under the double suppression of foreigners' technology and capital. Du Bang and Feng Jingyao came to make trouble.

The Lianshan Spinning Factory was run by Chen Lianshan alone. There is absolutely no doubt about his ability to build such a large factory in this era.Chen Ledao originally planned to go into business, but now he has entered the patrol room, but he never thought of giving up on doing business.

If he wants to start a business, doing business is a hurdle he can't get around. Chen Lianshan is such a good squeezer, he doesn't want any accidents for Lao Chen.

"Chen Lianshan can grow a spinning mill from nothing to such a large size. In the future, he will be like two horses and one Liu. In his previous life, he only heard Jack fooling people around, but he has never heard of anyone who can fool Jack." .It's a bit difficult to do at this time!"

Thinking of Chen Lianshan's high-quality resume, Chen Ledao felt that he might not be able to suddenly persuade him to become an old man.

"Old man Chen is older than my two lifetimes combined, he has experienced more and more cruel things than I have experienced, and he is a self-made business executive, how can this convince him." Scratching his hair vigorously, Chen Ledao deeply felt that Brother Qiang had put him in a big trouble.

"Compared to the old man, my only advantage is that I am 'well-informed'. If I want to convince him, it seems that I can only start from the current difficulties and the bright blueprint for the future." Chen Ledao's mind turned, and various thoughts quickly emerged.He only hated that he didn't have Jack's mouth, otherwise there would be no need for such trouble.

For people like Chen Lianshan, the least doubt is his patriotism. Older people like them may be pedantic, but their loyalty to the country is something that many later generations cannot match.

"Dubang and Feng Jingyao have intervened in the matter of Lianshan Spinning Factory. Now I have no ability to make them change their minds. For the time being, I can only take a step back. But the interests of the fight must not be less."

This was in the French Concession, and they couldn't possibly beat Dupont.Even Feng Jingyao didn't dare to take tough measures against Du Pont, and could only use insidious tricks to drive him away.

Although Chen Ledao had gained some status in the patrol room, it came from Sal Li.He and DuPont are not on the same level yet.It is impossible for Lao Sa to help him deal with DuPont.Chen Ledao knew this well, so he didn't plan to ask Sal Li for help.

"It's not difficult to ask Feng Jingyao to spend money to buy a yarn factory. But what about Chen Lianshan, a stubborn old man?" After going around and around, the problem returned to the original point. It turns out that there is only one problem in this matter, and that is how to solve it. Chen Lianshan.

"No matter what you say, they are all surnamed Chen. In the past, the same surname and different clans were somewhat sympathetic. I don't believe that a time traveler can still deal with an old man." Chen Ledao secretly cheered himself up.

If the old man really disagrees, he can only start with Chen Hanlin.

"What are you here for?" Lianshan Cotton Mill, Chen Lianshan was worried when he saw the current situation of the cotton mill, but he saw Chen Ledao walking in like a man of his own.

He now has a hostile attitude towards everyone related to Feng Jingyao. If it wasn't because Chen Ledao saved him yesterday, maybe he would have someone blow Chen Ledao out.

Chen Ledao looked at the spinning mill, this was the first time he saw a mill in this era.

There were not many people, and they were all busy with their own tasks. From time to time, someone carried things and walked past Chen Ledao.When these workers saw Chen Ledao in a suit and leather shoes, they didn't have a good face.

Perhaps Chen Ledao was regarded as Feng Jingyao's lackey, the person who came to force Chen Lianshan to sell the factory.

"Factory Manager," Chen Ledao was observing the situation of the spinning mill when suddenly a worker ran up to Chen Lianshan.

"Director, Xiaoshan asked me to tell you that he...he won't come here anymore." The worker said rather embarrassedly, not daring to look into Chen Lianshan's eyes.

"Xiaoshan said that you have been kind to him. He is too embarrassed to come to tell you in person, so let me help to pass it on. He said that the factory is in trouble, and he doesn't want his salary for the past two months. But he still has a wife and children at home, and he has two mouths." He has to eat, so he has to find another job." The worker said in embarrassment.I feel a little sorry for Chen Lianshan, after all, Chen Lianshan has always been nice to them.

Lianshan Spinning Factory has not been able to pay wages for two or three months. Chen Lianshan put all the money into production, but now no one wants his goods.The previous payment for the cotton mill was also backlogged by others, no matter how much he urged, the other party would only say a word and couldn't get it out for the time being.

Faced with this dilemma, the workers in the spinning mill have almost used love to generate electricity for the past one or two months.This situation will not last for a long time, let alone the present.

"Oh, let's just go, it's human nature, no wonder he." Chen Lianshan sighed bitterly.He is very grateful and satisfied that these workers can persist until now.

Xiaoshan, a worker, he remembered, was the first batch of workers in the Lianshan Spinning Mill and had worked there for nearly 20 years.Thinking that even this old worker would leave the cotton mill, Chen Lianshan's eyes glistened, his voice choked up, feeling uncomfortable.

Lianshan Spinning Factory has the same status as Chen Hanlin's son in his heart, even more important than Chen Hanlin.Who would have thought that it would be this far.

Looking at the current situation of the mill and thinking of the killer he encountered at the station, Chen Lianshan knew that the mill had really come to an end.There was a sense of sadness and despair in my heart.

"I still have some money left in my office. You can take it out and distribute it to everyone. If it's not enough, I'll think of a way. Remember to bring Xiaoshan's share back to him." Chen Lianshan's voice was full of loneliness, even Chen Ledao looked at Chen Lianshan at this moment They all look quite sad.

The Lianshan Spinning Factory was the painstaking effort of Chen Lianshan's life, and it would be hard for anyone to change it if it just disappeared.

Worker Xiaoshan's departure seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back. At this moment, Chen Lianshan lost his last breath.Just now he was able to say angry words to Chen Ledao, but now, he is more sad than heartbroken.

Looking at Chen Lianshan, Chen Ledao even felt that he saw Xiang Yu who killed himself in Wujiang. Although their lives were completely different, the final result was very similar.

"Isn't he trying to commit suicide?" Looking at Chen Lianshan, such thoughts flashed through Chen Ledao's mind, and then he was overjoyed.

He remembered that Chen Lianshan did commit suicide in the end, because Chen Hanlin got into a fight with Xu Wenqiang and Ding Li.And that time, it seemed that Ding Li had the tendency not to listen to Xu Wenqiang for the first time.

"Fortunately, I met him. This old man can't commit suicide anyway." Chen Ledao went straight to Chen Lianshan.

"Director Chen, you paid all the wages of the workers. Do you want to give up on this, bow your head to foreigners, and then throw the factory to Chen Hanlin, and find a clean place for yourself to liberate yourself?"

There was a bit of sarcasm in Chen Ledao's tone, as if he was saying that Chen Lianshan, you were not clamoring to die before bowing to Feng Jingyao, why are you giving up? !

Chen Ledao didn't know how to persuade Chen Lianshan, he was not Zou Ji, he could persuade the king of Qi with just a few words, so he simply chose the simplest method of aggressiveness.

As long as they are proud of themselves and confident in themselves, the aggressive method will definitely work.Chen Lianshan set up Lianshan Spinning Factory, saying that he is not proud and confident, which is absolutely impossible.Chen Ledao saw this.

Sure enough, Chen Lianshan reacted immediately, glaring at Chen Ledao.But he didn't make Chen Ledao agitated, but because he was a little ashamed and angry because he was told what was on his mind.

He has fought in the business field for half his life, how could he even hang himself quietly, why should he be ridiculed!
"Look at what I do, old man Chen, I've seen people like you a lot. When encountering difficulties, I don't dare to go up. I only know how to escape. If I can't escape, I simply commit suicide. This is the routine used by cowardly people like you. I’m used to it, so it’s no surprise.”

"By the way, do you want to throw yourself into a well? Take poison? Kill yourself? Swallow a gun? Or hang yourself? I've seen it a lot, and I can give you a reference if you tell me."

At this moment, Chen Ledao looked like a helpless rogue, a street hooligan, Chen Lianshan glared at him with wide eyes.Death doesn't make people die well, does it?
Chen Ledao said that he really didn't talk nonsense, he has indeed seen this kind of thing a lot, whether it is on TV or in reality, he has seen a lot of it.But most of those people chose to jump off the building, and their brains were splashed all over the floor, both red and white.Afterwards, I trouble others to clean it up, without any sense of public morality.

"What on earth are you trying to say!" Chen Lianshan flipped his robe with his hands, turned his head to other places, and said to Chen Le with the back of his head.

"What can I say, I just want to take the opportunity of your suicide to observe the reaction of people at close range when they die, and I don't know if it is really incontinence."

Chen Lianshan's face turned dark. This kind of thing is absolutely unbearable for a person like him who usually has a serious face and cares about his image.

"Who said I'm going to commit suicide!" Chen Lianshan shook his robe again, and turned his head away again.

"Oh, you don't intend to commit suicide, so you should have said it earlier, I've been waiting here for so long!" Chen Ledao looked regretful, and there was a bit of complaint in his tone.

Chen Lianshan stared with bloodshot eyes, and he gasped heavily at some point.Chen Ledao was looking at him complainingly, as if he was complaining why he didn't commit suicide and didn't say it earlier.

"It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable!!"

Chen Lianshan roared furiously in his heart, wishing he could swear a few words of "you little bastard" to relieve his anger.Without looking at Chen Ledao, he turned around and walked towards the office.He didn't want to see this ruffian in a suit in front of him for a moment.

Seeing him leave, Chen Ledao didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, and followed him into the office directly.

He is saving Chinese conscientious entrepreneurs, and it can be regarded as contributing to the great rejuvenation of the nation.

"What on earth do you want to do!!" Chen Lianshan glared at Chen Le and said, he really couldn't figure out what was going on with this young man.Are they so familiar?When Chen Ledao met, he was mocking him and wanted him to die quickly, that's not how he killed Shushu.

"What can I do, just come and see your old man." Chen Ledao said lightly while sitting on a chair.

Chen Lianshan is almost sixty now, but he doesn't think he is old, and Chen Ledao calling him old man makes him feel even more unhappy.His face was as black as pot ashes.

"Actually, I'm here to learn from you, to learn about business matters with you." Seeing that old man Chen was so angry, Chen Ledao thought that he might not want to commit suicide anymore, so he changed the subject.

"My father is similar to you, both are businessmen, but you are worse than his old man. When he was young, he went to France alone to work hard, and married my mother there. Oh, yes, my mother is French." Chen Le said I specially emphasized that the Chinese are called the sick man of East Asia in this era. His father can marry a French girl in France. Even Chen Ledao thinks that his father is very powerful.

After all, his mother is very beautiful, otherwise she wouldn't be able to give birth to a handsome guy like him.

Chen Lianshan pursed his lips, but listened carefully. Just now, Chen Ledao was stunned to death. He planned to find some loopholes in Chen Ledao's words, and give Chen Ledao back.He hadn't met such an arrogant young man for a long time.

"My dad was poor and poor when he first came to France. He had problems eating and he couldn't speak the language. But after his own hard work, he managed to create a family business in France, and he really started a family. I admire him very much." Chen Ledao said The voice changed.

"You have been doing business in Shanghai for decades. I originally wanted to learn from you. After all, Shanghai is different from France. Although you are worse than my father, you must have your own business experience. But I think you are still like this now. Forget it, don’t waste your time.”

The first half of his sentence is still a bit human, but the second half of the sentence made old man Chen blow his beard and stare with anger.With Chen Ledao's tone, he almost said that you can't do it.

Old man Chen's face was so angry that it was white and red, and there was blackness in the red, and it was even a little purple.

You say that your father is great, but why do you always bring me along!It is unreasonable to say that I am worse than your father! ! !
Chen Lianshan sat on the chair panting heavily, covering his heart with his hands, his heart throbbing with anger.
