The Ninth Commander said that Ma Bao died in battle, so he died in battle. Regardless of the hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at the harbor, Ma Bao still died in battle. This is the majesty of the commander-in-chief, and this is the power that the Han governor has after his death.
"Go back and send three thousand taels to Ma Bao's family. Your good eldest son is gone just like that. Tsk tsk tsk..." Zeng Guoquan sat back on the chair from the window and took a sip of fragrant tea. His face was as calm as if he had just been crushed. An ant died.
The massacre at the harbor is still continuing. After the death of Mr. Juren and Ma Bao, those gangsters under Xiao Zhuansun were pushed up. With the help of countless green forest people, the underground forces in the entire Tanggu City were wiped out. Xiao Zhuansun’s disciples and grandsons Ninety percent of them didn't run away.
Sword flashes flashed across the pier, heads of people lined up rolled to the ground, blood arrows spurted into the air, and the smell of blood hit people's noses like real substance. After all, Tongzhi Zhou Mingkui was a civil servant. The ninth commander forced him to do this task of supervising the beheading. He had never seen such a bloody scene. He crawled to the side and vomited just after two rows of people died.
Not only him, but all the businessmen and people present were vomiting. They saw too many dead people yesterday and today, and those whose minds were a little less firm might collapse.
Especially the group of businessmen headed by Mr. Niu from the Sihai Cargo Terminal stood in a corner with ashen faces, looking helplessly at the scene of people rolling in front of them. There was nothing but despair in their hearts.
Why are you doing this? Isn't joining the guy named Huang and Pigtail Sun looking for death? We are businessmen, and we are all low-level businessmen. Who wouldn’t bully us in black and white? How could you choose to cause chaos with them? The first update is now good. Xiao Letian has been completely offended. The next wave will chop off our heads.
Shopkeeper Niu and the others came with the intention of death. Now the whole city of Tanggu is under martial law. They can't escape even if they want to, and they don't dare to escape either. In yesterday's riot, all businesses were robbed. Except for the bulky and worthless goods, the loose money had already been swept away by the mob.
Everyone looked at the smashed-in front of their house and the burning warehouse. They knew that their half-life struggle and hard work had come to an end today.
What's even more frightening is that they have become enemies with a raptor like Xiao Letian, and this raptor seems to not only have armed men under his command, but also has a very good relationship with the Hunan Army. This is how to do? Ma Bao and Huang Juren are both dead. Can we businessmen still survive?
The only hope now is that these people did not directly participate in the riots, but just squeezed the business. I hope Xiao Letian will not kill them all.
The atmosphere became more and more depressing, and the businessmen who were lying on the ground vomiting finally collapsed. Boss Wang, who was the first to sell Xiao Letian bristles in Lotte Foreign Trade Co., Ltd., suddenly rushed out of the crowd like crazy and knelt down to Xiao Letian. Kowtowing downstairs at the cargo station where I am is like pounding garlic.
"Master Xiao, Master Xiao, please be kind to me. I'm just a low-level businessman. All I'll do in my life is pick up everyone's shit. I really don't want to go against you... I'm really scared. I have been threatened by Huang Juren and Pigeon Sun, please be considerate and considerate... All my property will be exchanged for my life, please show me your noble hand..." After saying this, he kowtowed, and his forehead started to bleed. Update as soon as possible
Where there is one first, there is another. The businessmen who were frightened in this massacre were desperate to survive. They took out the land deeds and banknotes in their arms, raised their hands and begged Xiao Letian for reward, trying to In exchange for one's own life.
At this time, even the executioners stopped and stared blankly at hundreds of businessmen kneeling on the stone slab in front of the cargo station, crying loudly. At this time, Zhou Mingkui also secretly wiped his tears. He didn't know how to move the gun and said in a low voice, "If I had known today, why would I do it in the first place? It has been said that the great master of Western learning was the reincarnation of the stars in the sky. Even if he was the reincarnation of the ocean stars, then It’s not something you can humiliate...Tsk, tsk, tsk, it’s miserable!”
Xiao Letian stood by the window and looked at the businessman who was kneeling in front of him. He did not feel the excitement after being slapped in the face, nor the refreshment after revenge. His heart felt like it had fallen into an abyss, leaving only sadness. Please come to more and faster chapters.
This is the Qing Dynasty, this is the merchants who were at the bottom of the four peoples, namely, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. It is said that businessmen are not nefarious, and they are all said to be profit-seeking and have low morals. But who knows what kind of life these businessmen lived during the thousands of years of Confucian rule in China.
In the feudal dynasty, did any of the famous big businessmen in China end up with good results? Needless to say, it goes without saying that it is far away. Think about Shen Wansan in the early Ming Dynasty, and then look at Hu Xueyan in the Qing Dynasty. These are already top businessmen. What will be the final outcome?
And these people kneeling in front of them are all small businessmen who are not worthy of leaving their names in history. They are busy and diligent, struggling between black and white, as if anyone on the street who can be called "Master" can step on them. They have two feet.
Yes, they are not moral gentlemen, and they cannot guarantee that they will operate with integrity throughout their lives, but they are not humble. They are also living people who use their hard work and intelligence to make profits. What's the crime?
Look at them, this inner fear of power has been a nightmare for businessmen for thousands of years. It was just a small fight for wealth, and they actually thought they would kill them.
This delusion of being persecuted, which was close to obsessive-compulsive disorder, made Xiao Letian want to cry. He suddenly felt that these businessmen were so pitiful. I just showed a little bit of the power I had in my hands, but already these businessmen were so frightened that they used all their family property to buy their own lives. This is such a sad thing. Please come to more and faster chapters.
Xiao Letian took a few deep breaths and said to these businessmen, "Don't you want to compete with me for wealth? So today I will let you open your eyes and see how rich I am..." As Xiao Letian spoke, Mr. Xiang Long made a gesture to the distance, and then the two messengers quickly ran to the distance.
"Stand up, man. There is gold under your knees. It's not shameful to kneel down crying and crying over something like this!" Xiao Letian winked, and then a group of guards rushed up and grabbed all these businessmen who were lying limp on the ground. Woke up.
Almost at the same time, the sound of wheels rolling over the cobblestones was heard on the long street in the distance. After a while, a single-horse flatbed truck appeared in front of everyone. On the car were several heavy silver coins. The box and lid had all been opened, and a white silver light came out.
"Wow, silver! Such a big silver ingot..." The crowd exclaimed, and everyone wanted to get closer to watch, but they were stopped by the army.
Carriages appeared one after another in front of the people. At this time, the merchants were also dumbfounded. They had dealt with money all their lives, and their eyes could see clearly that each of these boxes could be filled with ten thousand taels of silver. So, How big of a car can't pull out 300,000 taels of silver?
Just when everyone was stunned, suddenly two shrill roars came from among the prisoners who were not dead on the execution ground, "Oh my, that's the money of our Huang family... Oh my God, why don't you open your eyes and take it away" These bandits! They robbed our money, which is the money of our Huang family..."
It was Huang Juren's wife and son who were crying. They were also on the death row list, and it was estimated that it would be their turn soon. Xiao Letian curled his lips, "A miser will never understand what money is until his death..."
At this time, the Ninth Commander next to him said, "Oh? So you know what money is!" the old man asked enthusiastically. Xiao Letian blinked, "Money is a public weapon. It does not belong to any one person, but only to the whole society. Stupid people will hold on to their money and not let it go, or even bury it in the ground waiting to mold..."
"But smart people are different. They can make money and spend money. Money only represents the amount of resources a person can mobilize in this world. People with great wisdom use what money brings. The power of the money, not the money itself, sooner or later the miser will end up like this..."
"Okay..." Zeng Guoquan slapped the table and stood up. "That's right. How many people just can't understand the word "potential". Since ancient times, all great men have taken advantage of the trend and tried their best to promote and change the general trend of the world. , How can a good man be a miser? Money has to be spent before it is money, otherwise what is the difference between it and donkey dung eggs..."
Zeng Guoquan likes this young man more and more. Although he still can't understand it now, he is completely convinced by Xiao Letian's talent. Please come to more and faster chapters. If my Zeng family wants to go further, they must capture such talents.
Just when Jiu Shuai was full of fantasy, the show of wealth on the street downstairs had already begun. Ten silver carts carrying three hundred thousand taels of silver walked at the front, followed by a long row of big men. Two people were carrying a large basket, which was full of eagles. It was estimated that there were more than 5,000 eagles in one basket.
"Good guy, how rich Xiao Letian is!" The people and businessmen watching the excitement swallowed in unison. Especially those businessmen who were trying to fight for wealth in Lotte Foreign Trade. Seeing no less than a million taels of eagles slowly being raised in front of them, everyone lowered their heads, especially shopkeeper Niu, who was blushing with shame at this time.
Xiao Letian stood on the second floor of the cargo station and sighed in his heart: "This Tanggu business war can be considered a victory. Fortunately, I asked Xiao Hexin to escort another batch of silver coins in advance, otherwise I would really be unable to suppress these things." A well-informed maritime merchant.”
It turns out that before Xiao Letian arrived in Tanggu, he had already finalized the main business of Letian Yanghang. In the early stage, it will mainly focus on overseas trade, and in the later stage, the business will gradually shift to the silver trade with the United States and Mexico. Finally, Rakuten Bank must transform into a modern bank. The mainstream of future business will still be opening a bank, which can make more money than doing physical trade.
For this reason, Xiao Letian prepared a large number of silver coins in order to exchange loose silver coins with merchants like Tanggu. His purpose was to establish the currency credit of Mexico Yingyang here in Tanggu. Unexpectedly, this second batch However, silver coins became his biggest support in fighting for wealth.
In the later period, Xiao Letian allocated as many as 500,000 eagle coins from Yixian County, and 18 tankers were used. Adding the 400,000 eagle coins mobilized before, Lotte Foreign Bank now has 900,000 silver coins to use. Coupled with the 300,000 taels of silver ingots stolen from Huang Ju's family, Xiao Letian is now not afraid of any businessman's challenge.
In the entire Tanggu city, who has the most cash flow? Apart from Xiao Letian, there is no other person.
