1928: The Rise of Giants

Zhentai Gauze Factory is indeed the top textile factory in the south. Seeing the rows of operating machines and the hardworking workers, Ye Luo seemed to have seen the factory run by Zhou Qingquan, the supporting actor in the "Ip Man" series.

In the movie, Zhou Qingquan opened the factory after 1935. Foshan is the hometown of martial arts and a place with a very good economy in GD Province. Zhou Qingquan borrowed tens of thousands from the rich second generation Ip Man, and then reluctantly bought the cotton The factory was opened, but once the factory started operating, the efficiency was very good.

If the war had not broken out later, Zhou Qingquan would have definitely become a leading local entrepreneur in Foshan after the restrictions on textiles were lifted through the tariff autonomy agreement.

After all, textiles are the bulk of the Japanese business in China. Previously, their imported textiles had almost zero tax rate. With their ultra-high quality and low tariffs, Japanese textile products have almost monopolized all markets in China.

This year it has been confirmed that the Japanese will sign a tariff autonomy agreement with the Jinling National Government. Japanese businessmen who had already heard about it have sold off their textiles and moved their factories out of the Republic of China. This has left a large number of vacancies in the market, which is bound to make people A few domestic textile factories became rich overnight.

It's a pity that the glory and wealth brought by this national policy are not accessible to ordinary people. By the time you realize that this thing can be done, the market has long been occupied by those in the upper class.

This is why the more stable a country is and the longer it lasts, the more difficult it is to cross classes.

Because the core source of wealth is information gap.

When people above block information resources, people below will never be able to make money.

Without money, it is difficult to do most things. If one generation does nothing, generations will be affected. If things go on like this, the economic snowball will make the gap between people wider than that between people and pigs.

This is the true meaning of heroes emerging in troubled times.

Only when social order is destroyed can people hope to turn around.

Jiang Keting will probably die without knowing that Song Ziwen was behind his back. This is the tragedy of ordinary people.

Walking around the Zhentai Gauze Factory, the workers all heard that the young man in front of them would replace Director Jiang as the new director, and this young man's face looked a little familiar.

Not long after Ye Luo and his party left, a female worker finally remembered the identity of the new factory director!
"Isn't this the second young master from Shanghai who is often mentioned in newspapers?! I still have a newspaper clipping with his photo hidden in my house!" the female worker whispered, attracting a lot of attention.

Ye Luo is so handsome that some good people even ranked the top ten most beautiful men in the Republic of China, and Ye Luo ranked second among them!

No matter what age, handsome men are very lethal to women.

Over there, Zhentai gauze factory started to get excited, and here Song Ziwen took Ye Luo to a restaurant in the suburbs to drink wine and invite a famous erotic actor to perform live.

This night's nightlife was extremely rich, allowing Ye Luo to see the luxurious life of the upper class in the Republic of China - before, he only focused on making money and doing business, and rarely had such fun, food, and drinks.

While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone.

When a society enters this stage, it means things are about to change.

Song Ziwen didn't know if the weather would change. He only prayed that the principal would not lose the battle that was about to begin, and that it would be best to defeat the enemy with overwhelming force as before.

It was late at night when we returned to Song Mansion.

Ye Luo was helped into the room in a daze. The wine he drank tonight made him dizzy. Song Ziwen kept urging him to drink, which made him almost unable to walk even though he had an average drinking capacity.

"It's better to wash up tomorrow and go to bed first!" Ye Luo unbuttoned his suit and trousers and threw himself on the big bed covered with velvet quilt.

"Yeah~"

The girl's low voice reached her ears.

There was a soft girl's body huddled under the quilt on the bed. When Ye Luo touched her, the girl screamed, but soon she consciously covered her mouth with her hands.

"Xiaodong? You...are you back?" Ye Luo hugged her and leaned into his arms, "Hey, why is she so small?"

"Second, second young master~"

The tearing pain made the girl scream unconsciously - the dim corridor light came from outside the window, the huge Simmons bed was swaying, accompanied by soft singing and low humming, which was intoxicating.
"My head hurts."

As soon as Ye Luofu opened his eyes, dazzling light came from the window. It was very bright, it was probably noon.

He only remembered that he drank a lot of wine with Song Ziwen last night, how he finally returned to Song Mansion, and how he fell asleep without memory.

While thinking about it, I suddenly felt something warm and moist somewhere.

The velvet quilt curled up and down like a caterpillar.

"Hiss—Xiaodong?" Ye Luo remembered. It seemed that Meng Xiaodong came back earlier than him last night.

Wonderful feelings hit my brain one after another.

Ye Luo squinted his eyes comfortably. Half an hour later, a little head emerged from the bed.

What a pretty face!

Looks so familiar!
Wait, why isn’t it Meng Xiaodong? !

"Second, second young master~" Jiang Meiying swallowed the thing in her mouth with difficulty, and then looked at him delicately.

"You, you are...Jiang Meiying's sister?" Ye Luo remembered!
The most beautiful woman in the Republic of China, Jiang Keting’s only daughter, is probably still studying in a Chinese and Western girls’ school, Jiang Meiying!

"Well, the second young master still remembers me?" Jiang Meiying's smile was a little bitter. Last night, this morning, and the expression and behavior that pleased men just now were all fake, because she has been learning these things unexpectedly these days. She is very smart. , and it’s quick to get started, so even if it’s only three or four sincere, it still looks quite charming.

Ye Luo didn't react.

Didn’t it say that Jiang Keting’s whole family was in jail?

"Why are you here?" Ye Luo looked outside guiltily, and then everything became clear.

No wonder Zhang Leyi took Meng Xiaodong away last night to learn opera from a famous master.

Song Ziwen arranged this drama and must have considered this issue and would never let Ye Luo be broken by Meng Xiaodong.

Yesterday's Zhentai gauze factory, now Jiang Meiying, Song Ziwen painstakingly fulfilled each of his previous "promises", the intention is self-evident.

He really has no intention of paying back the 8700 million yuan.

"I was sent by Minister Song to wait for the second young master here." Jiang Meiying leaned on Ye Luo and burst into tears suddenly, "Second young master, please save my father and my family!"

"Factory Director Jiang" Ye Luo was speechless for a moment. It seemed that Jiang Meiying didn't understand the full story of the incident.

From the perspective of Jiang Keting's family, it was Jiang Keting who was motivated by his own interests and used Japanese goods as domestic products to sell. Even though Song Ziwen was involved in the matter, he would definitely be the one to take the blame after the Dongchuang incident happened.

And the reason why things broke out so quickly was because he was reluctant to give up profits and fell deeper and deeper into the situation.

Now Jiang Meiying grabbed Ye Luo as if grabbing a life-saving straw.

It was probably Song Ziwen's idea to offer her body to win his help.

But she didn't know that Song Ziwen had planned all these things since the two went to Jiang's house for the first time.

"Why do you feel like you've become a bad guy?" Ye Luo smiled bitterly. (End of chapter)
