Zhang Xiaolin's whole body was in a state of excitement.
In just one day, he instantly became one of the richest people in Shanghai.
He rarely set foot on the stock market in the past, but now, he suddenly felt the magic of the stock market strongly.
This money seems to have fallen from the sky.
"Third Master, 150, 150."
Zhang Yubao was so excited that he was at a loss: "I was right there, doing nothing, and saw our stock rising steadily. If we hadn't sold a lot at 120, we could still have made a profit." …”
Having said that, shut up immediately.
It was Zhang Xiaolin's decision to sell the stocks.
Fortunately, Zhang Xiaolin was in high spirits today and didn't care about this: "It's okay, it's okay, there are losses and gains. Generally speaking, we are still making a fortune. What do you think tomorrow?"
"It still needs to go up!"
Zhang Yubao is full of confidence: "They all said there that we can break 200 tomorrow."
"real?"
"real!"
"Stocks."
Zhang Xiaolin suddenly let out a long sigh: "You said, we used to work hard, fighting with foreigners, fighting with patrols, fighting with bandits, fighting with our own people, fighting back and forth, how much money could we put in our pockets in a year? One? During the holidays, I still have to honor this and please that. It feels silly to think about it now."
"Yes, yes." Zhang Yubao said flatteringly.
"It's only one day."
Zhang Xiaolin sighed with emotion: "In just one day, we have almost earned back all the money we can earn in our lifetime. Why are we so stupid? What else are we thinking about?"
"Third Master, are you going to continue to increase investment tomorrow? All the eight million we borrowed from the bank have been invested."
"Invest, why not invest?" Zhang Xiaolin had no time to think: "Let's invest when the price reaches 200. Go, call Xu Laowu and Chen Heizi, and tell them first that the five million I asked them to prepare is ready. No, I will use it tomorrow!"
…
The entire night in Shanghai was filled with a fanatical and restless atmosphere.
Countless people are tossing and turning this night, wishing that the sun would rise high now so they could continue to dive into the stock market.
sleep?
That's a waste of time.
With this time, how much more money can I make?
…
Meng Shaoyuan was sitting in the small courtyard, lying on a deck chair.
On the small coffee table on the left, there are two glasses of red wine, a pack of cigarettes, and a bunch of bananas.
Wu Jingyi sat next to him, also lying on the recliner, bathing in the night quietly like the young master.
She found that the young master had been looking at the sky blankly.
Tonight, there are only a few stars in the sky.
"What are you looking at?" Wu Jingyi couldn't help but ask.
"I saw Lao Mu."
Meng Shaoyuan suddenly said: "Mu Dekai, you are not familiar with me. The one who followed me first, unfortunately, died in the hands of the Japanese. Did you see that, the star on the left is Lao Mu? "
Wu Jingyi was silent.
"That star, the biggest one, belongs to Xiang Shounong." Meng Shaoyuan said in a daze: "Many, many people who followed me are dead. Do you think they are really like the legends? After death, Become stars in the sky?"
Wu Jingyi didn't know how to answer him.
How come the young master, who has always been playful and smiling and heartless, has become so sentimental today?
"I miss them, I really miss them."
Meng Shaoyuan's voice was very low: "Last night, I had a dream. I dreamed about them. Everyone's faces were clear in the dream. I heard Lao Mu say to me, Captain Meng, get rich." Come on, burn some more paper money for the brothers. It’s not easy for the brothers to follow you. I was just about to talk to Lao Mu, but he suddenly disappeared.
Then I dreamed of Ji Yifan, who was Ji Shuang’s father. He grabbed my clothes and questioned me loudly. He said, Meng, I died to save you. I entrusted my son to You, why did you send my son to meet me? Are you still a human being? I'm not a human being, I really am not a human being. "
"It's a dream, don't think too much about it..."
"I know it's a dream, but I still can't help but think about it." Meng Shaoyuan picked up the red wine glass, stood up, and poured the red wine in the glass onto the ground:
"I feel sorry for these brothers. They followed me through life and death. Before they could enjoy the blessings of following me, they were all gone."
Wu Jingyi picked up the wine bottle and poured him a large glass: "Drink more. When you get drunk, you can still see your brothers in your dreams."
"When I want to get drunk, I just can't get drunk no matter what."
Meng Shaoyuan sat back again and slowly rocked the rocking chair: "There are fewer and fewer old brothers around me. I heard the day before yesterday that the Japanese were conducting raids with unprecedented intensity. Wuxi, Changshu, Suzhou and other places have all encountered enemies. Yue Zhenchuan is used to it. In order to live a comfortable life, due to carelessness, I encountered the Japanese and almost didn't get out.
I was shocked when I heard that. Fortunately, Yue Zhenchuan still popped out and was slightly injured, but it was okay. These people are the so-called frontier officials, and they are my old base. I send them out to take charge of their own affairs and help me look after the place. I feel relieved. If something happens to them again, I really have no way to explain it. There are not many old people in the B family. "
Meng Shaoyuan talked about the "Bingzi Clan" headed by the old man, and Wu Jingyi was immediately fascinated.
"The Bingzi Department, the Youth Department, the Hangzhou Department, and then there is the Internal Affairs Department." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Shanghai is full of factions. Your Assistant Wu's Internal Affairs Department is the most powerful. No matter which department it is, how much money will be given to you? To save face, it’s okay to offend me, but to offend you, Shanghai will be unable to move forward.”
"There is such a name." Wu Jingyi admitted frankly: "But whether it is the B-type department or the so-called internal service department, in the end, you are still the leader. If you really think that the faction is too complicated, come here Just a big overhaul will be enough.”
"You misunderstood." Meng Shaoyuan was silent for a moment: "There are factions everywhere, and this thing can't be eliminated. Let alone our Shanghai, even within the military command, there are more factions than us, but why are there no major conflicts? Because Mr. Dai is here If Mr. Dai is here and the military commander is here, there will be no internal chaos.
The same is true for Shanghai. As long as I am alive, there will be no chaos in Shanghai. No matter how powerful a faction is, I know how to control it. What I think about is, when the day comes that I am gone, where will Shanghai go? There are thousands of agents and tens of thousands of people on the outside. What should we do with such a huge force? What will happen to them in the future? "
Wu Jingyi asked softly: "What happened to you today?"
"I just suddenly thought of this." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Are you really planning to be a spy for the rest of your life? When the Japanese are driven away, our mission will be completed. Have you thought about the future?"
"I haven't thought about it, and I don't dare to think about it."
Wu Jingyi drank all the wine in the glass and put down the empty glass: "It's getting late."
She took out a piece of ocean from the slit of the chair and threw it on the coffee table.
"What do you mean?"
"An ocean."
Wu Jingyi stood up, grabbed Meng Shaoyuan's clothes and pulled him up:
"You're worth an ocean."
Meng Shaoyuan was pulled into the house by her.
The sound of high heels clicking on the ground was particularly clear at night.
Night, soft...
…
August 9, 1939, 7 a.m.
Fenghui Woolen Textile Co., Ltd.
The workers received the notice last night and came to the factory early this morning.
He Yu came very early.
A long table is placed there.
On the table, there are envelopes one by one.
Liang Genshan, the worker representative, asked cautiously: "General Manager He, do you have something to do with us?"
"No big deal."
He Yu said calmly: "Brothers have worked hard during this period, so on behalf of the factory, I would like to express my thoughts to you."
As soon as she finished speaking, the one-eyed dragon Xia Wei beside her picked up an envelope: "Liang Genshan, it's yours."
Liang Genshan took the envelope and was confused.
Rong successfully opened a roster: "Sign here and press your fingerprints."
Liang Genshan did as he said in a daze.
He Yu smiled and said, "Open it and take a look."
Liang Genshan opened the envelope, and inside was a check.
Liang Genshan was frightened when he saw the numbers above.
The money you make from working in a factory for a lifetime is not as good as this thin check.
"General Manager He, this..."
Liang Genshan was at a loss.
"Take this money, open a small shop, do some small business, and use the rest for your retirement." He Yu looked at him and said, "You don't have to work so hard every day in the wind and rain."
"No, General Manager He, are you going to fire me?"
"Fired? Did anyone fire you by giving you such a large sum of money?" He Yu cast his eyes on the other workers: "You are all the same. Each of you will be paid according to the current salary, assuming that you can do it for fifty years. , and then double the distribution, and give it all at once, to a total of twenty-four workers in the factory, everyone has a share!"
Although the workers were completely confused, they couldn't help but cheer loudly when they heard these words.
"This is the opinion of the management." After the workers calmed down, He Yu continued: "There is no talk about whether this factory can be opened in the future, but we cannot wrong the worker brothers. We will all be able to enjoy happiness in the future. But I have to warn you, after you have received such a large sum of money, you are not allowed to go out to eat, drink, whore or gamble, and leave the money to your wife for safekeeping."
Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter.
Liang Genshan was full of doubts: "General Manager He, didn't you say that we want to buy a happy factory area?"
"Don't ask questions about management matters that you shouldn't ask." He Yu's face straightened: "Let me ask you, since the factory has a new boss, have you been treated badly?"
"No, no, it's good for us."
"That's fine, take your money, don't ask, don't say anything, just stay here quietly." He Yu immediately said, "I've asked people to prepare wine and food. Let's have a good meal at noon, but no one can You are not allowed to leave the factory."
"General Manager He, we will do whatever you say."
"That's it, you can't leave until at least 4:30 this afternoon!"
