20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 390: Luda · Just left the Beauty Bureau and entered the Yangzi Room again
The sharp knife cut through the muscle texture, oozing out a faint trace of blood. He pushed it forward and pulled it, and finally cut it into a small square piece, just right for the mouth.

Su Tai picked up a piece with a silver fork, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully. It was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, with juices splashing out. It was really a good steak.

He narrowed his eyes, his throat trembled for a moment, put down his knife and fork, and took a sip of dry red wine - not to mention too authentic!
"In short, this is what happened, and this is what the situation is!" Su Tai smiled kindly, "Rong Wuye has agreed to meet with you two. However, you still have to go and make a trip. Lushun. I can’t help it. Mr. Rong Wu is really busy recently. Please bear with me.”

Xue Yingqing raised a toast and said, "Rong Wuye is a big business man, so it's normal to be busy. Since we are sincere, it would be unreasonable for us to say anything else."

"Lizhen, drink less and pay attention to your health." Cai Yunsheng advised from the side.

"It's okay! Talking about business means making friends. When I come to Dalian this time, I can meet people like Mr. Su. No matter how big the business is, it's just the icing on the cake. It's my honor to have two more drinks with you. But, if I made a mistake when I said it, please forgive me in advance."

When he said this, Xue Yingqing's face was filled with peach blossoms, her cheeks were flushed and soft, and her voice was thin and even more attractive.

She was not drunk, but the two men were drunk because of her.

Su Tai felt from the bottom of his heart that Miss He was extraordinary, and he was naturally envious of her.

Not to mention Cai Yunsheng, he is so beautiful!

"You're welcome, it's just a small matter." Shopkeeper Shao smiled ambiguously, "Miss He, nice to meet you!"

What Mr. Rong Wu wants is real gold and silver, and a large amount of real gold and silver cannot be obtained anytime and anywhere. It must be discussed long in advance.

Along with him, there were four temporarily hired bodyguards, one of whom had a pair of double sticks, which was quite interesting.

The general manager has a smooth hair and a pink face. He wears a suit and leather shoes. From his conversation, it is obvious that he has dealt with the Cai family before.

Xue Yingqing quickly pinched him under the table and reminded him softly: "Don't always talk about money when you are away from home!"

……

Cai Yunsheng and Xue Yingqing got off the carriage, went up the stone steps, and walked into the bank lobby. After finding a teller and saying their names, they were taken to the office at the back of the hall and were personally received by the bank's general manager.

Only then did Cai Yunsheng remember that instead of just watching the money become worthless, it would be better to use it to do some business that would make a sure profit without losing any money.

Horse hooves stepped on the asphalt road, and with a crisp and sweet sound, a Russian-style four-wheel carriage slowly arrived in front of the bank from the north.

The general manager also smiled, turned to glance at Cai Yunsheng, and asked: "Master Cai, let's start?"

However, at this juncture, if he wants to exchange so much cash at once, he will inevitably "suffer a loss and give in". If he is not charged with "connecting with foreign countries" and "undermining the financial order", he will be locked up and investigated. It's already a blessing.

Cai Yunsheng was about to stand up, but Xue Yingqing had already gone over to shake hands.

As a result, there were more and more paper bills, but they could not be exchanged for silver, and the small foreign bills began to depreciate one after another. If it weren't for the help from the capital, these official bank accounts in Fengtian would really be about to be bankrupted.

Why not withdraw money in Lushun?
Because no!

Xue Yingqing stood up and said, "You men are talking about business, and I will serve you tea. This will save some time."

Even so, it still cannot stop the continuous depreciation of Feng Xiaoyang's notes, and it is even more difficult to exchange the paper notes for cash.

"Master Cai is here, please have a seat!"

While he asked the two of them to sit down, he introduced another guest in the office - the most powerful bank manager in the area.

"This is shopkeeper Shao. I don't need to introduce him. You must have heard about it." The general manager said, "Master Cai, shopkeeper Shao is here mainly to help us cash in cash."

Cai Yunsheng was stunned for a moment, suddenly feeling a little sleepy, so he rubbed his eyes and quickly took out deposit certificates, bills, seals and other items from his arms, put them on the table and said, "One hundred thousand."

No matter what the general situation is, ordinary people will rush to cash in small foreign bills the more difficult it is to exchange them for cash.

For a young man like him, who came to Dalian from Anton, the reason why he did not bring any servants from his hometown was, on the one hand, to avoid the harassment of the old servants and to spend his whole life with his girlfriend; on the other hand, it was because of the business capital. It was supposed to be done in Dalian, with one hand paying the price and the other hand delivering the goods. Unfortunately, Rong Wuye broke the appointment at the last minute, so he changed the original plan.

However, panic spread.

However, Cai Yunsheng is still a little worried.

Su Tai wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "Yes! You two already know the place where we will meet. At 3:30 pm the day after tomorrow, Mr. Rong Wu will be waiting for you in Lushun on time. I have official duties. I won’t go with you this time. I think it’s getting late, why don’t you two go buy tickets first and get ready?”

"Okay, okay! Then you two, would you like to have some tea first?"

It didn't take long before some shops began to refuse to accept small foreign bills.

The general manager picked up the bills and compared them for a long time. Then he made calculations and started to redeem them according to the price.

You know, in the past two or three years, Feng Xiaoyang's banknotes have been squeezed out by Xiaodongyang.

In the afternoon, we visited the Republic of China Bank in the Grand Square, which is also the entrance of the former Daqing Bank. The sun shines on the snow-white stone steps, making it difficult to open one's eyes.

"Click, click, click..."

Xiao Dongyang deliberately incited and planned his own businessmen to exchange large sums of paper notes for cash intermittently in a short period of time. At the most, he exchanged 360,000 cash in just two days, causing officials to The reserve fund of the bank account was seriously insufficient, so we had to use various reasons to postpone the exchange.

"Yes, yes!" Cai Yunsheng sneered, "Bao'er, look, I forgot again. You pinch me again so that I can remember it!"

The driver was in his mid-thirties, with a hooked nose, quite tall, but a little hunched over. He looked honest and honest, like a farmer.

"Manager Shao, thank you for your help!"

That person asked: Could it be that a dignified official bank account with the prefix "国" couldn't even cash out a hundred thousand cash in foreign currency, so why did it even bring in a local bank manager to help?
As for!

Cai Yunsheng nodded: "That's right. Not only do you have to buy tickets, you also have to go to the bank to prepare money!"

"Okay, then there's Miss Lao He."

Cai Yunsheng and Xue Yingqing found the people together and selected them after discussion. Of course there would be no problems.

It had been almost a year since he had been beautiful, but he still couldn't help feeling that he was lucky. If not, where would he have found such a virtuous wife who could be both inside and outside?

The three of them held cups in their hands and ate and drank. Xue Yingqing toasted again and again, and so on for a while.

In addition, the general manager and shopkeeper Shao are busy helping with the operation. Can we not give them some real benefits?
You can't really think of people as service personnel!
Therefore, Cai Yunsheng's 100,000 yuan sounded like a lot, but by the time it was actually converted into cash, most of it had already been lost.

It's not easy to carry so much cash in the ocean. It has to be exchanged for gold bars, which is another price.

It doesn’t matter if you feel it’s a loss, you don’t have to change it if you feel it’s a loss!

After a lot of calculations, we finally came up with a number that all three parties were satisfied with.

The huge sum of one hundred thousand yuan turned into about fifty golden croakers, which were put into the suitcase and could be seen and touched.

The box is not big, but the weight is serious. After Cai Yunsheng checked it, he picked up the box and "limped" out of the bank.

When he came to the gate, Xue Yingqing suddenly stopped him, took out a delicate and small lock from his handbag, handed it to him and said: "Safety is important, lock the box!"

Cai Yunsheng nodded, took the suitcase, locked it, and returned the key to Xue Yingqing. He smiled listlessly and said, "Bao'er, I'll leave this key to you for safekeeping!"

"Ah! How can this be done? It's too expensive."

"We've been together for almost a year. You can watch it, I'm relieved."

"No, no, I can't afford it. Don't embarrass me." Xue Yingqing shook his head firmly. That was more than just pretending.

Cai Yunsheng was only focused on being moved, and seemed to have completely forgotten in his mind that there was such a thing as a spare key in the world.

When he walked out of the bank gate, four temporarily hired bodyguards immediately came forward to greet him, ready to help him.

Cai Yunsheng quickly turned sideways, yawned, waved his hand and said, "No, no, I'll take it myself!"

The four bodyguards looked at each other without saying anything, and then stood at the four corners in front, back, left, and right, escorting Cai Yunsheng and Xue Yingqing down the stone steps with full vigilance, and went straight to the Russian carriage on the roadside. go.

The hook-nosed coachman opened the door silently.

"Bao'er, you get in the car first." Cai Yunsheng showed his gentlemanly demeanor all the time.

"Yunsheng, you are so kind, really!"

Xue Yingqing smiled slightly, then quickly lifted up her skirt, stepped into the carriage and sat down.

Cai Yunsheng stood behind her, helping to hold her arms and protect her head. He was afraid that his sweetheart would bump into her, and he finally placed the suitcase heavily on the car floor with a "clang" sound.

Unexpectedly, as soon as one foot stepped on the carriage board, the maroon horse pulling the carriage was suddenly frightened, and with a neighing sound, it kicked off its hooves and ran forward. Cai Yunsheng was unexpectedly thrown to the ground.

"Oops, fuck me!"

"Yun Sheng!" Xue Yingqing screamed in the carriage.

Fortunately, the coachman had quick eyesight and quick hands. He immediately rushed forward, reined in the reins, and controlled the frightened bay-red horse in time, so that no serious disaster was caused.

Seeing this, the four bodyguards quickly leaned over and helped Cai Yunsheng up.

"Boss, boss, are you okay? Just talk if you need anything!"

"It's best to say a few words if it's okay, otherwise something will really happen!"

Cai Yunsheng seemed to be fine. He stood up and the first thing he did was to point at the hook-nosed coachman and yell: "Can you fucking drive a coach? How can I punish you?"

The coachman didn't dare to refute, he could only keep silent and get scolded.

Xue Yingqing shouted from the car: "Yunsheng! Come over here and let me take a look. Are you okay?"

"Bao'er, I'm fine!" Cai Yunsheng responded, still cursing at the coachman, "You prodigal thing, I don't think you are much better than that animal!"

"Okay, okay, it's fine!" Xue Yingqing urged, "It's important to do business first. We have to hurry up and find a hotel near the station first, so as not to be too busy tomorrow when we are on the way in the car."

Cai Yunsheng reluctantly got into the carriage.

Of course the suitcase full of croakers was still there, locked and intact.

Xue Yingqing lifted it up with some difficulty, put it in Cai Yunsheng's arms, and said with a smile: "Here, hold it! This is a lot of money, hold it tightly, don't let go, be careful not to throw it away again." "

"Haha, you can't! If you tell me, I'd be a fool!"

Xue Yingqing burst into laughter, turned around and shouted out the car window: "Stop dawdling, get on the road quickly!"

"okay!"

Everyone responded in unison, sounding very energetic.

The carriage swayed forward for about a quarter of an hour. Cai Yunsheng suddenly yawned, rubbed his eyes, and asked, "Bao'er, which hotel is better over there at the train station?"

"I don't know either. Let's wait and see when we get there!" Xue Yingqing asked with concern, "Yunsheng, are you sleepy?"

"It's not bad! I drank a little too much with Su Tai just now, maybe because the foreign wine was so strong, and I spent a long time doing calculations at the bank just now, which made me confused."

"Then just take a nap first, and I'll call you when you get there."

"No, no, no matter how hard I stand, it's not far anyway." Cai Yunsheng took out a small key from his pocket, "Bao'er, put this key in your hand!"

"I don't want it, just keep it yourself." Xue Yingqing smiled and shook his head, "I'm after you, not your money."

"Oh! Stop mentioning money all the time, that's so vulgar! Let's talk about poetry...and talk about literature..."

However, the carriage drove smoothly on the asphalt road, only trembling slightly, like a crib, coaxing people to sleep.

Cai Yunsheng was dazed and stiffened for a while, and finally fell into a deep sleep. However, even though he was fast asleep, his two arms still tightly hugged the big yellow croaker in his arms, almost like an instinct.

About half an hour later, he seemed to be awake, raising his eyebrows and half-opening his eyes.

"Bao'er... Bao'er? Are you here yet?"

"Hey, it's here!"

What responded to him was a low and hoarse voice, a man's voice.

Immediately afterwards, several malicious chuckles sounded in his ears.

Cai Yunsheng's heart froze, and the pores all over his body suddenly opened. It seemed that all the senses in his body were alerted in an instant, and they desperately collected all the information around them. This is how people wake up suddenly.

A man with a stubble on his chin and an evil smile squatted in front of him like a jackal.

"Who the hell are you!"

Cai Yunsheng looked around and saw that he was in a barn with no less than a dozen strange men squatting on both sides, so he quickly changed his words: "Everyone, you heroes, who are you?"

Erlu, who was squatting in front of him, reached out and patted his face, and asked with a playful tone:
"Bao'er, how much does the house cost?"
