What is the concept of two hundred thousand dollars?
This is an astronomical sum of money.
Even in the United States, a bachelor apartment costs $25 a month, a hot dog costs 5 cents, a movie ticket costs 20 cents, most magazines cost 10 cents, and a meal costs 45 cents.
Therefore, this is a huge amount of money that is enough to make most Americans dizzy.
No wonder Xu Xinqiang became so excited.
A bottle of genuine American imported wine was brought up.
"Please, please."
Xu Xinqiang poured wine for the other party diligently.
After having a drink and seeing Meng Shaoyuan just drinking and eating, Xu Xinqiang couldn't help it anymore: "I wonder what business Boss Meng is talking about?"
"By the way, I haven't told you what the deal is yet." Meng Shaoyuan looked like he suddenly realized: "Give me two hundred thousand dollars."
"Ah?" Xu Xinqiang was startled, and then said with a smile, "Boss Meng really knows how to joke."
"No kidding." Meng Shaoyuan said very seriously: "This deal means you give me two hundred thousand dollars."
Xu Xinqiang's face darkened: "Boss Meng, are you here to fight against the autumn wind? Brother, I have been in Shanghai for so many years. I have dealt with the Qing Gang, and I have also fought with the Ax Gang that was rampant in Shanghai back then. Deal with me. If you have any difficulties, I will pay for your travel expenses. But two hundred thousand dollars is too much for the lion to ask for, right?"
"No, no." Meng Shaoyuan was munching on the food, and his words were a little slurred: "Two hundred thousand dollars to buy your family's life, it's worth it."
Xu Xinqiang's expression changed drastically, and he winked at the housekeeper. The housekeeper understood and slipped out quietly.
"Which path are you on, brother?" Xu Xinqiang was stalling for time.
Meng Shaoyuan just pretended that he saw nothing: "The right way."
"The right way?" Xu Xinqiang sneered: "Is this blackmail considered the right way?"
"Of course it's the right way."
Meng Shaoyuan finally stopped using his chopsticks and wiped his mouth: "Xu Xinqiang, you secretly colluded with the Japanese, betrayed the interests of your compatriots, forced your compatriots to sell off their factories, deliver military supplies to the Japanese army, and were willing to act as shameless traitors. These two hundred thousand dollars, It’s not even enough to buy your life. Now I’m giving you a discount, which can buy the lives of your whole family, but the discount is only for today!”
Ye Rong almost laughed while listening.
Director Meng really talked about business seriously, what kind of discount is there for just one day?
Xu Xinqiang broke into a cold sweat behind his back.
Who is this person? Why do you know your own details so clearly?
Now, what is needed is to delay as much time as possible.
"Boss Meng, please let me think about it, let me think about it." Xu Xinqiang said after making up his mind.
"If you want, I'll give you time to think about it." Meng Shaoyuan picked up the chopsticks again without caring at all.
"Who the hell dares to cause trouble in Boss Xu's house!"
Half an hour passed by and I saw the housekeeper walking in with someone.
As soon as the man came in, he shouted angrily: "Are you tired of living?"
"Me." Meng Shaoyuan said lightly.
"you……"
The man took two steps forward and was about to show off his power and yell, but when he saw the other person's face clearly, his expression turned pale: "Oh, it's Boss Meng, I deserve to die, I deserve to die."
After saying that, he really slapped me in the face.
Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Golden Axe, you dare to interfere in my affairs?"
Under Ji Yunqing's command, the boss of the Thirteen Taibao, Jin Axe, Jin Shanxiu!
Xu Xinqiang and the housekeeper were stunned.
This Golden Ax is the boss of the Thirteen Taibao, a figure who dominates Shanghai.
But when he saw this young man, he actually slapped himself?
Meng Shaoyuan didn't say anything to him: "Get out!"
"Yes, I'm out, I'm out!"
Golden Ax was in a very embarrassed state. Thinking about how he had benefited from Xu Xinqiang in daily life, it would be too unloyal to leave like this. He quietly said to Xu Xinqiang:
"Boss Xu, just do whatever I ask you to do."
Xu Xinqiang was completely stunned.
When Golden Ax left in a panic, Xu Xinqiang cheered up and boldly asked: "Boss Meng, let me talk, what kind of business do you do?"
Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "I am Military Commander Meng Shaoyuan!"
I am Meng Shaoyuan, the military commander!
Xu Xinqiang's head almost exploded with a "bang".
Military commander, Meng Shaoyuan!
Oh my God, how did this God of Death find him?
Of course, not many people knew about military commander Meng Shaoyuan, but this name was famous among Japanese special forces and traitors.
Who can escape the person he wants to kill?
Meng Shaoyuan said with a cold face: "Xu Xinqiang, you know about the Iron-Blooded Rape Order of the Military Command. Your name is not on it yet. Do you need me to add it to your list?"
"No, no."
Xu Xinqiang broke into a cold sweat.
Are you kidding me? Is the military order to eliminate adultery a joke?
Meng Shaoyuan's name is well-known among the traitors, and the military order to eliminate traitors is not a life-threatening talisman for them.
Can anyone on this list survive?
"You want to rely on the Japanese as your backer, but the Japanese have too much time to take care of themselves now." Meng Shaoyuan picked up the wine glass and shook it: "I want to kill you, but no one can protect you. You have a wife and three children, including you. , five people, one life costs 40,000 US dollars, which is not expensive, ah, I will kill this person for you for free!"
He pointed at the butler.
The housekeeper's whole body trembled.
Who have you provoked?
"Mr. Meng, Mr. Meng." Xu Xinqiang knows very well that once he is targeted by the military commander, there is no need to defend himself. Even if there is no evidence, they will still kill you. The only thing he can do now is to beg for mercy: “I did do some stupid things and sold some light bulbs and electrical equipment to the Japanese.
But I really have no choice. The Japanese have occupied Shanghai. A small businessman like me doesn't dare to be their enemy. I still have such a big family. Brother is willing to change his past and make some contribution to the Anti-Japanese War, but for two hundred thousand dollars, even if I sell this house and all my factories, I will never be able to raise this money. "
The Grand Guangming Cinema showed a movie on the first day of the new year, making a huge fool of the so-called reception in Japan.
Nowadays, the Japanese are in a mess. When he was in the third year of junior high school, Xu Xinqiang went to pay New Year greetings to the Japanese people he knew well and brought many gifts. He originally wanted to please them, but who would have thought that after meeting them and chatting for a few words, they would He was sent away unceremoniously.
From that day on, Xu Xinqiang knew that the Japanese were really in trouble.
And if they want to kill people like themselves, how can the Japanese risk their lives to protect themselves?
Xu Xinqiang still understands the principle of spending money to eliminate disasters.
The question is, where can he get two hundred thousand US dollars?
"Boss Xu, I like to give others opportunities."
Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Spend money to save your life. If you pay, I will not pursue the matter of being a traitor. Two hundred thousand US dollars, not a penny less. It is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and on the day of the Lantern Festival, I will come to the door in person." Come and get it, this time is enough for you to raise money, by the way, I will bring a group of people that day."
Either money or life.
Outside, firecrackers sounded again.
Seeing that Xu Xinqiang still wanted to bargain with him, Meng Shaoyuan suddenly took out his gun.
Xu Xinqiang was so scared that his feet were weak.
"Bang bang bang"!
Meng Shaoyuan fired three shots at the wall, then put away the gun and pointed at the three holes in the wall: "If I can't see the money, next time, these three shots will hit your head."
When he stood up and prepared to leave, he did not forget to give a "kind" reminder: "Don't even think about escaping. My people will be watching you 24 hours a day. If you dare to escape, no one in your family will survive." "
…
"Director Meng, can Xu Xinqiang get 200,000 US dollars?"
Ye Rong asked as soon as she got into the car. She never thought that Director Meng's so-called bringing her to perform special tasks was actually for "blackmail".
"Of course he can't afford it." Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said, "Even if all his properties were sold, he wouldn't even have half of the money."
"Then you..." Ye Rong didn't quite understand.
"You don't necessarily have to kill a traitor." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Of course you can vent your anger by killing him, but think about it from another perspective, why do these people want to be traitors? They want to survive, want glory and wealth, and want to be in the world. The Japanese act like dogs in front of them. But what will happen if you deprive them of everything?"
His property, his status, his factory, his savings, his car, the house he lives in...
When everything is taken away, he will be worse than dead.
Ye Rong suddenly understood: "In this case, it would be better for these traitors to die."
"Death?" Meng Shaoyuan sneered: "If they really had the courage to die, they wouldn't be traitors. They knew that they would die if they lost everything, but they still wanted to save their lives desperately. In their view Come on, your life is more important than anyone else or anything."
very scary.
Director Meng analyzed the weaknesses of these traitors so clearly.
These traitors are unlucky when they meet Director Meng. When others deal with traitors, they can at best shoot them, but what about Director Meng? He just wants you to taste the pain of losing everything.
"Ye Rong, you go do something."
"What?"
Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Xu Xinqiang must still be hesitant about whether to pay the money or not. You can guard the door of his house tomorrow and wait for his housekeeper to come out. Killing the housekeeper can also be regarded as giving him a reward." Just remind me.”
"knew."
Although Ye Rong felt that this seemed a bit excessive from the bottom of her heart, she did something extraordinary in this extraordinary period. Since you have become a traitor, you must have the consciousness of being a traitor.
Meng Shaoyuan checked his watch and said, "There's still time to catch the next show."
"What, next game?"
Meng Shaoyuan laughed again: "This is Shanghai, and Xu Xinqiang is not the only traitor. My goal is to raise 200,000 US dollars. I can't rely on Xu Xinqiang alone. Isn't it allowed for other traitors to help him?"
Ye Rong smiled.
Traitors helping traitors?
Only Director Meng came up with this idea.
Two hundred thousand dollars.
Traitors big and small in Shanghai, you are in trouble.
Meng Shao is originally looking for you.
Ye Rong almost wanted to shout like this.
