Back to the Republic of China as a commander

At this moment, in the restaurant across the river from the negotiation site, Du Yuesheng was having dinner with Huang Jinrong and Zhang Xiaolin.

"Yuesheng, let me tell you, what's the matter with your third brother? Why does he keep stretching his hands into the concession? He still thinks his territory is not big enough?" Zhang Xiaolin asked after eating a hairy crab. road.

"What are you talking about, Xiao Lin? That's the chairman of the national government. Even foreigners have to be polite when they see him. I didn't see that he returned the customs this time." Huang Jinrong hurriedly silenced Zhang Xiaolin, who was outspoken.Then he said softly: "Yuesheng, what is the situation in Shanghai in the future? Why do you ask brothers not to intervene in this banking negotiation? I'm afraid there must be an explanation for this matter. After all, where is Boss Yu? We are related, and I won’t hide it from you, brother, Boss Yu also came to us yesterday and asked us for help, it’s not good to owe favors!”

Du Yuesheng nodded and said: "Brother (Jin Jinrong withdrew the invitation and became sworn brothers with Du Yuesheng), I also did this for the benefit of my brothers. This national government is no better than Beiyang. If they really go against them, they might give a letter to the concession. Well, those foreign devils may really throw us out to take the blame. So I mean, everyone, leave a way for yourself in the future, this day, maybe it will change!"

Huang Jinrong thought for a moment and said: "We are hooligans, so there is no need to make trouble for a group of bank businessmen and people with long guns. But Yue Sheng, for us people, what kind of rules does your third brother have? "

Du Yuesheng sighed and said: "Brother Huang, Brother Zhang, although we claim to be tycoons in Shanghai, we are still hooligans in the final analysis. If we don't want to find a way to clean up our crimes, what will happen to us people? After all, this society will become more and more serious. stable, the law will become more and more standardized.”

This last sentence was learned by Du Yuesheng from Wang Zhenyu when he went to see Wang Zhenyu last night. Huang Jinrong and Zhang Xiaolin were stunned when they heard it.

Zhang Xiaolin said: "Then what should we do? It's easy for us people to walk the right path, but what about the brothers below? We can't smash the jobs of the big guys all at once, right?"

Du Yuesheng shook his head and said: "In the current situation, of course, we can't act foolishly. We can only take one step at a time. According to my third brother, the business of tobacco, soil and arms will not be able to stop for a while. We still have to do the business. So we can start with the first step, de-guildization, and corporatization of our business. I mean first set up a Sanxin company, which specializes in our smoke and arms business in Shanghai .”

Huang Jinrong nodded: "The company is good, the company is good, it sounds like a serious person."

Zhang Xiaolin nodded and said, "Although it sounds a little suspicious of taking off his pants and farting, it seems to be quite the case."

Huang Jinrong smiled, and suddenly thought of another thing: "Where is Boss Yu, how should we reply?"

It turned out that before Yu Qiaqing and the others decided to negotiate with the national government, they certainly didn't feel that they would be confident when facing Wang Zhenyu, so after much deliberation, they decided to follow the old rules and follow the path of foreigners and hooligans.

For a long time, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang chaebols have been able to make money in Shanghai because of the support of three types of people: foreigners, hooligans in the concession, and warlords.Well now, only Wang Zhenyu's family is left in the warlord. The foreigners are busy with the European war and can't hold Wang Zhenyu down, so naturally they want to ask people like Huang Jinrong for help.As for Du Yuesheng, everyone now knows that he and Wang Zhenyu are brothers. Finding him is not the same as seeking skin from a tiger?So Du Yuesheng was naturally ignored.

In fact, hooligans help nothing more than three things. The first is to follow the path of foreigners, the second is to buy murderers to kill people, and the third is to create troubles and guide public opinion.

For this reason, Yu Qiaqing also specially donated [-] oceans to Huang Jinrong and Zhang Xiaolin, and promised to get [-]% of the shares of Siming Bank after the matter is completed.

This is also the reason why Sun Hengfu dared to be so frightened in front of Wang Zhenyu today, his vision determines his behavior.Both Yu Qiaqing and Sun Hengfu made a fatal mistake. They regarded Wang Zhenyu as a Beiyang army leader.So after a slight hint from Hu Hanmin, he dared to challenge Wang Zhenyu.

In their view, the so-called currency reform is nothing more than Wang Zhenyu's trick to let his own private bank in, and then make money from the Shanghai market.Well, as long as people like himself act a little more resolutely and make this kid feel that things are tricky and troublesome, then he will naturally retreat in spite of the difficulties.

The idea is right, but the idea is wrong from the beginning.Wang Zhenyu made a big decision this time. In his head, the whole southern China will use plum blossoms (the pattern of Huayuan is plum blossoms as the main body, so it is called plum blossom coins).Even the currency issued by foreigners has to be withdrawn. Under such circumstances, how can these financial capitalists in Shanghai be allowed to bargain in front of themselves?

"Mr. Yu, General Manager Sun, let me put it this way. Currency unification is imperative. It is a trivial matter for you to issue banknotes now, but the banks of the big powers are also issuing banknotes. They are actually plundering us Chinese in disguise. Wealth. So the government intends to unify all currencies in the jurisdiction into Chinese yuan, and then set up a foreign exchange administration to conduct unified foreign exchange management of foreigners' currencies. As for the problem of excessive issuance of Chinese yuan that you are worried about, we can follow the example of the United States. Set up a reserve administration. This reserve system includes: the National Reserve System Council, the National Open Market Committee, and the National Reserve Bank. This is the information, you can take it back and read it. In a word, this institution will replace the current National Bank and become a new The central bank of the national government. The interests of the major banks in the area controlled by the national government will also be guaranteed by such an institution. However, unlike the United States, the power to issue currency will also be transferred to the national government. We will choose five to Ten banks will inject capital to make them exist as state-owned banks of the national government to maintain the stability and prosperity of the financial market. Here I can even guarantee that as long as we finally establish a completed financial system belonging to the national government, then In the next ten years, the economy under the national government will develop rapidly, and our country and our nation will also become stronger and prosperous..."

But no matter what Ye Zuwen said, Yu Qiaqing would not let go, and Sun Hengfu would sneer and sneer from time to time: "Oh, they are from Hunan after all, they are different from those of us in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. We think about the country in everything. It's selfish, ouch, I'm really embarrassed."

Looking at these short-sighted Shanghai financial capitalists, Wang Zhenyu really wanted to yell: "You are fucking pigs. If the currency is not unified, the country can only continue to be chaotic. You grandchildren are satisfied with your own money. Then help foreigners mess up China, right?"

Wang Zhenyu thought about some self-proclaimed social elites in later generations, isn't that the case?Pretending to be a grandson in front of foreigners, being arrogant in front of his compatriots, he still feels very good about himself, and he always mentions the glorious deeds of his grandfather, completely unaware of how small and ridiculous he is.Looking at Sun Hengfu's ugly face, Wang Zhenyu felt something like this. Now he really wanted to be impulsive and pour the teacup in front of him directly on this kid's face.But he thought about it and didn't do it. After taking a breath, Wang Zhenyu smiled and said: "It seems that we can't talk about anything today, so let's go back and have a rest, think about it carefully, and figure it out." , we'll talk about it tomorrow."

As soon as Wang Zhenyu got up, he said to Ye Zuwen: "Father, if you come to talk tomorrow, I won't come."

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, but was stopped by someone: "Hello, Chairman Wang, I am Shi Liangcai from Shanghai Shenbao, can I talk to you? Mr. Shao Piaoping and I are friends?"

Wang Zhenyu, who was already very upset in his heart, stopped when he heard Shi Liangcai's name, and said with a smile: "There is no need to report Brother Shao's name, your Boss Shi's name is also very useful here, in your writing Am I not a big warlord of feudalism? Why are you interested in talking to me?"

Wang Zhenyu's humor made Shi Liangcai's perception of him very different: "I really thought so before today, but now I am more interested in chatting with you, this is Shanghai, I invite you to have afternoon tea Bar!"

Wang Zhenyu smiled: "You Shanghainese really feel good about yourself, so it's better to be respectful than obedient, but my identity is a bit troublesome, so don't mind if the security is too cumbersome later."

Over there, Wang Zhenyu was pulled for an exclusive interview, and here, Yu Qiaqing and Sun Hengfu also left the meeting place.

"I said Boss Yu, that shitty chairman of the committee is just a young man in his 20s. He thinks it's great to have soldiers in his hands. He thinks that we have to give him face if he shows up in person. Isn't it because I was blocked by a few words." Sun Hengfu yelled proudly as soon as he walked out of the venue, completely oblivious to the stern expressions of the nearby cigarette dealers.

"Boss Sun, I said just now that you acted a bit too much. After all, they didn't come up with a specific plan, so you rushed to oppose it. This is very easy to offend people to death! "Yu Qiaqing and Sun Hengfu walked out of the venue, feeling strange in their hearts, he was not as proud as Sun Hengfu.The experience of working in Shanghai for so many years told him that Wang Zhenyu was a real tiger even when he was young, and a tiger's butt is strictly speaking untouchable.

Sun Hengfu thought for a while, yes, it seems that Wang Zhenyu only talked about one thing from the beginning to the end, and he didn't mention the specific method. It seems that he is still in a hurry.However, Sun Hengfu still forced himself to be calm and said: "What are you afraid of? Shanghai Bund shouldn't be the place where these little red guys should come. Don't be afraid..."

Sun Hengfu got into his car and left, Yu Qiaqing shook his head and returned home.
