Fengxian Jiangshan

Liu Wenxin thought about it carefully, but he could only grit his teeth and nod: "I bet all my wealth and life on the Japanese. I don't believe that the little Fengtian government can win against the Japanese. As long as the Japanese can win, we will win." I won't lose!"

After making up his mind, Liu Wenxin hastily took out all his deposits. Over the years, he has worked for the Japanese, plus his own property, and has accumulated 3 to [-] yuan. Now he has taken it out without hesitation. , rented manpower, formed a convoy, and went to the countryside to grab soybeans.

But things are far from as simple as he imagined. The Fengtian government dared to play this way because Zhang Tinglan had accumulated huge resources in the past two years. First of all, he had a huge horse convoy. As a result of development, the commercial development of the three eastern provinces is getting faster and faster, and there is also a huge trade with Russia. Coupled with the existence of the North Market, it absorbs materials from all over the world, so there is a huge demand for transportation. Fengtian has several A large car dealership.

Some are under the name of Fengtian Welfare Company, which mainly serve the army, and some are under the name of the industrial group. In addition, there are professional transportation teams controlled by several major department stores in the North Market. These transportation teams almost all listen to Zhang Tinglan As long as there is an order, no matter how tight the capacity is, you can concentrate enough power.

Moreover, these transport convoys have their own special management and operation system, which is very efficient. In addition, setting up a large number of acquisition points requires a large number of accounting experts and the cooperation of the local government. These are the unique advantages of the Fengjun, comprador businessmen Although they have a large number and relatively strong financial resources, they have limited resources after all, and they cannot compete with the Fengtian government at all.

In addition, these comprador merchants are not monolithic, they are all cunning people.Looking at the contest between the Fengtian government and the Japanese this time, it can be described as a fight between gods and mortals.Some shrewd ones don’t work hard, and their main task is to cry to Nissin and Santai for more financial help from the Japanese.

Of course, there are also loyal ones, such as Liu Wenxin, who took out all his family property and spent three times the usual price to form a transport team and bring a special accountant.He ran to the countryside and bought soybeans door to door.

His hard work was not in vain, and he finally purchased more than 300 million catties of soybeans, which was more than half less than in previous years.But it was considered a good result, but at this time all the cash in Liu Wenxin's hands was thrown out.And also owed a lot of foreign debt.

The harvested soybeans should also be stored in warehouses.It costs money every day, so Liu Wenxin found Jiao Wuye impatiently.

"Fifth Lord, I have collected more than 300 million catties of soybeans. You can see if you should pay the money and send it to the Japanese as soon as possible. Aren't they waiting to use it?"

Jiao Wu looked at him.With a wry smile, he said, "Old Liu, you are really capable, but I want to remind you that the Japanese don't have enough cash now. So you can either keep these soybeans for yourself, or you can only accept bond mortgages."

Hearing this, Liu Wenxin was immediately dumbfounded. He has worked so hard these days, running around in the countryside, how many pairs of shoes have been worn out, and there is still a big gash at the corner of his mouth. Cash settlement, isn't this playing silly boy!

In the past, this guy didn't feel uncomfortable when he sent white notes to farmers. On the contrary, he was extremely proud, but now, when the Japanese wanted to send him white notes, Liu Wenxin was dumbfounded.

"Fifth Master, don't make such a joke. The villain puts his wealth and life on it. How can the Japanese do this? Are they unreasonable?"

"Old Liu, you are also an elm head. If the Japanese are reasonable, they should fish on the four islands. How could they go to the three eastern provinces to call the wind and rain? To be honest with you, it's not just you, we are all treated like this , I asked the Japanese for funds, and they gave me a lot of bonds, saying that the income from these things will be very high in the future, which is more cost-effective than giving us cash.”

Jiao Wu took out some bonds, put them in front of Liu Wenxin, pointed to these things and said, "Even if the bonds can really be used as money, but the common people don't recognize this thing, they still force us to take money out of our pockets. In exchange for these bonds, I finally turned all my savings into a pile of paper, and I don't know what to do, my heart has been on fire for the past two days!"

Liu Wenxin thought about it carefully, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Fifth Lord, I believe the Japanese are reputable and will not cheat us for a small amount of money. Tell me, what is going on with these bonds?"

"The Nissin Oil Factory and Santai Oil Factory entrusted the Bank of Korea to help issue it. It is said that although the Japanese do not have cash, they also have a batch of bonds. They use the bonds as collateral, and then the Bank of Korea helps issue new bonds. It is said that the income of this thing is very high, and it is more cost-effective than storing in a bank, as for the specifics, I am not sure."

Liu Wenxin's golden eyes kept turning, and he secretly made up his mind: "Fifth Master, I believe in the Japanese. Maybe these bonds are a good opportunity to make a fortune. I want it!"

"Humble words, this is a telegram sent by Governor Wang Yongjiang. The Nissin Oil Factory and Santai Oil Factory used Russian government bonds as collateral to ask the Bank of Korea to help issue a set of soybean bonds. It is said that many of these bonds have fallen. It was in the hands of those comprador merchants." Qiao Lanyun smiled and introduced the situation to Zhang Tinglan. After Zhang Tinglan heard the news, she was overjoyed. He hurriedly took the telegram and read it carefully.

Although the Nissin Oil Factory and Santai Oil Factory are hens that lay golden eggs, they don't have too much liquidity in hand, especially during World War I. The rapid development of Japanese industry required a lot of investment. Oil companies have invested a lot of money in the country.

Just at the beginning of the year, the February Revolution broke out in Russia. The ruble and Russian bonds all plummeted, and many people were selling them. However, at this time, the Japanese, who always like to play tricks, discovered that this was a business opportunity.

Russia is so huge, and the Japanese once defeated Russia, but Russia has slowed down. Now Russian bonds have plummeted, but as long as Russia stabilizes, they will definitely rise. If you buy the bottom at this time, you may make a lot of money. .

And at this time, they also got a piece of information, that is, a report on mineral resources in the Far East, which contained a large amount of gold, iron ore, copper, and even oil.For the resource-hungry Japanese, seeing these things simply makes them lose their minds.

At this time, the Russian government also launched a bond, which used some of Russia's mineral resources as collateral. The Japanese decided to buy a large amount after thinking about it.

This decision of the Japanese also has its own calculations. If Russia can win the First World War, there is no doubt that these bonds will become hot treasures.Even if Russia failed, the Germans would not be able to reach the Far East. Instead, the Japanese could take advantage of these precious resources.As for the possible change of the government, the Japanese don’t care, just like China has changed from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, and the debt relationship still has to be borne. bond.

Moreover, as Kerensky came to power, the Russian provisional government began to show signs of stability, and launched an attack on Germany. At this time, Russian bonds skyrocketed again and were widely sought after. Not only Japanese investors, but also Even a group of European and American investors began to value these bonds. This incident made the Japanese very proud and thought they had taken advantage of it.

Nissin Oil Factory and Santai Oil Factory, as big financiers, also bought tens of millions of bonds. Now that they don’t have enough cash, they can only take out these precious Russian bonds and hand them over to North Korea as collateral. Banks are also Japanese colonial institutions, and they also need to cooperate with each other. The Bank of Korea helped them issue a batch of soybean bonds to collect money and compete with the Fengtian government for financial resources.

However, the so-called soybean bonds did not sell well, and the Japanese could only forcibly allocate the bonds to those comprador merchants.After Zhang Tinglan saw Wang Yongjiang's telegram, he connected the events before and after, and he immediately figured out what was going on.

At this time, Zhang Tinglan was almost overjoyed. The Russian bond itself was a trap set up by Zhang Tinglan and Fred to attract the Japanese and Daosheng Bank. Zhang Tinglan knew very well that Russia would turn red. , and the majority party regime will never assume the debts of Tsarist Russia. On the contrary, they will take it for themselves without hesitation, and the wishful thinking of the Japanese will definitely come to nothing.

In fact, in the original history, after the February Revolution, Russian rubles and bonds were sought after, and many Chinese businessmen bought them. Their thinking was also very simple, even if Tsarist Russia is so huge, it will not collapse if it loses a little.The consequences can be imagined. After the majority party came to power, many investors went bankrupt.

However, in this time and space, Feng Jun took back the Middle East Road, which made many Chinese see clearly the nature of Russia's weakness, so not many people took action, but it was because of Zhang Tinglan's report on Far East resources and Fred's release. All kinds of false news caused the Japanese to eat a lot of bonds without hesitation.

As a result, these bonds have now linked the Nissin Oil Plant and the Bank of Korea. Zhang Tinglan even has the urge to laugh up to the sky. Soon the October Revolution in Russia will break out, and the bonds will become a bond at that time. With the pile of waste paper, the Japanese oil extraction industry and financial industry will be devastated.

Originally, Zhang Tinglan and the Japanese rushed to buy soybeans just to get back some profits, and had no intention of killing them all. But the situation is completely different now, and Zhang Tinglan already has an idea of ​​killing them all.

"Miss Qiao, let's go to Fengtian as soon as possible. According to the plan, we will set up an agricultural product trading center. I want to wrestle with the Japanese!" (To be continued...)
