1928: The Rise of Giants

Chapter 451 Song Ziwen asked the second young master for a loan

"Brother, why are you here?" Ye Luo pretended not to know, and enthusiastically stepped forward to hug Song Ziwen.

Song Ziwen sighed: "Oh, it's a long story. This is not the place to talk. Let's find a secluded coffee shop to chat."

"Okay, there's a nice one nearby. I'll take you there." Ye Luo chatted with him enthusiastically, and when he saw Song Ziwen's sad face, he felt happy.

It is estimated that the Song family lost a lot of money in this wave of US stock market crisis.

The two came to the coffee shop and found a private room to sit down.

Before the coffee was served, Song Ziwen began to complain.

As the finance minister, he is now acting like a human being.

His brother-in-law is obviously the top leader of the Jinling National Government, but he always turns to outsiders, making his brother-in-law's life miserable.

In order to raise military expenses, he "had" to divert part of the money from the treasury overseas and participated in this U.S. stock investment.

He was at odds with Kong Xiangxi and others, so the money was directly handed over to Hongxing United Group for operation. Since Ye Luo left and Liu Xuenong took over, he found that the dividends were gradually decreasing.

Those who fully support the principal are the plutocrats of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

In fact, the first two Northern Expeditions had nothing to do with him.

Because this group of people did not get any benefits afterwards, they were plowed again, and they were used as the principal's guns in the disarmament incident. Therefore, no one paid for these civil wars, and it fell to Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi.

In the previous Jiang-Gui war, the principal was unstoppable and defeated the Guangxi warlords in less than a month. Even such a great victory cost more than 1 million in military expenditures.

It wasn't until a few days ago that I realized that all their money was invested in the stock market!

Song Ziwen grabbed his hand and was so frightened that Ye Luo almost drew his gun.

I looked for Liu Xuenong and found that he had been missing for many days without a trace.

Looking for Huixin, there is no way to see her, and even if she is found, it will be difficult to get the money back.

Song Ziwen's more than 6000 million yuan has been wasted, and the Ministry of Finance can no longer provide military expenditures.

"Brother, didn't you come out at that time?" Ye Luo widened his eyes and asked knowingly.

In addition, Song Ziwen himself spent more than 2000 million yuan in the ocean, but it was also lost in the sea, with no possibility of coming back.

Of these 1.3 million miles, Song Ziwen occupied 6500 million oceans, exactly half of it.

The other party has a Chinese face, but his identity is an out-and-out American. What qualifications does he have to ask Huixin to do something?

"Well, you know this. The principal has been fighting wars these years. Whenever something goes wrong, he always asks me for money. The treasury is empty." Song Ziwen said awkwardly.

"Just, it's only tens of millions." Song Ziwen said less. When he told the real number, he was afraid that it would be leaked and he would be directly held accountable by the principal.

"In this case, brother, what are you going to do?" Ye Luo asked following his intention.

Song Ziwen sighed and said, "I should have known better now, but I regretted it earlier. I should have listened to your advice and left the stock market as soon as possible!"

He has clear account books. Everyone in the military and political circles of the Republic of China has saved a total of 2600 million US dollars, which is about 1.3 million yuan, equivalent to three original Ye's investments.

What is going on now is the war between Jiang and Feng, which is even more expensive.

"Isn't that okay? With your financial resources, brother, you shouldn't be stretched thin, right?" Ye Luo laughed in his heart, but said seriously.

"How much money did you lose?" Ye Luo expected that the Song family had the same temperament. If the principal's wife didn't come out, how could he come out.

"Arlo, brother, I have to rely on you this time!" Song Ziwen stopped pretending and simply showed his cards, "You must help me contact Mrs. Dewitbucket. I have to ask for an explanation. She cheated. It’s the hard-earned money of tens of millions of people in the Republic of China. Even if there is support from the US government, we can’t be so ruthless!”

Oh, it turned out that I wanted to ask Huixin to get her share capital back.

Use the general trend of the Republic of China to oppress her.

It's a pity that Song Ziwen thinks too much. Their face in front of the Americans is not as good as that of Ye Luo.

After this battle, Hoover should have resigned in despair within a few years.

During World War II, Franklin was the leader of the world's great powers and the real holder of power. Needless to say, his relationship with Ye Luo.

During the darkest period of his political career, it was Ye Luo who lit the torch of hope for him.

This one thing is enough.

"That may be a bit difficult, brother, you don't know yet. Mrs. DeWittbucket has announced that she will marry Mr. Livermore this weekend. Livermore, you know, the big investment that shorted the United States Home."

Ye Luo looked troubled.

Song Ziwen was stunned.

He heard that some experts deliberately shorted the United States during this turmoil, which caused the U.S. stock market to collapse, and countless consortiums were still unable to clean up their behinds.

Such a ruthless person actually wants to marry that woman... Wait.

The expression on Song Ziwen's face quickly became ugly.

"You mean, they"

"They should have joined forces to make a plan. It's my fault. I became their pawn to absorb the capital of the Republic of China. Alas."

Ye Luo couldn't help but sigh,

"If I had discovered it earlier, brother, your equity capital might not have been lost."

"That's it! This bitch!!!"

Song Ziwen cursed loudly and sat back down after being furious for a while.

Becoming more desperate.

He originally thought that with his identity as the Minister of Finance of the Republic of China and Ye Luo's face, he would ask the principal to talk to the United States. It was only 1 million US dollars, and the other party would not hold it back and refuse to give it.

Now, the opponent is the final boss.

What the hell are you asking?

If you run up to ask for money again, won't you be laughed at?

"Then what should we do?" Song Ziwen was about to collapse.

At dawn on October 10, the Chiang Kai-shek Army and the Northwest Army opened fire along the entire line from Gong County to Dengfeng Wen in Xixi, Henan Province, and the Chiang Kai-shek and Feng War broke out.

On October 10, the principal published the article "Today's Responsibilities of the Government and the Current Status of the People" in order to combat the Northwest Army.

The article stated: "The significance of this rebellion is not to pacify the internal affairs, but to fight against the outside world. This is because the internal traitors will not be eliminated, and the foreign aggression will not be avoided for a day."

That night, the principal delivered another oath in the army to denounce Feng.

On the 28th, the principal went to Jiangcheng from Jinling and then turned to the governor of Henan Province to attack Feng.

On the same day, Sun Liangcheng's troops of the Northwest Army stormed Dengfeng.

On October 10, Chiang Kai-shek's army attacked the northwest route in three groups. Tang Shengzhi, Fang Dingying, He Chengrong, and Yang Jie all went to the front to supervise the division. Fierce fighting continued all day long in the west of Heishiguan, Dengfeng, Linru, Yu County, and Jiaxian County until 29 p.m. The Northwest Army retreated to Luoyang.

This series of battle reports was transmitted to the United States via telegram and reached Song Ziwen's hands.

This shows that the war is coming to an end. When the war is over, the principal will reward the soldiers and settle military expenses.

At that time, what money did his treasury use to support it?

"This is a bit tricky." Ye Luo looked at Song Ziwen, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Brother, I still have some money."
