Chapter 44: A Thousand Miles of Pulses (3)

The meeting place agreed by Tang Shaomarshal and his foreign friends was located in the embassy district of Shangjing.

This is not the first time Qu Ning has come to this Western-style architectural area, but unlike the interested visitors who came to the antique in later generations, facing these fluttering flags again still deeply hurt Qu Ning's still fresh heart.

The embassy area was guarded by blonde people with blue eyes but loaded with live ammunition, and the barricades and these armed soldiers strictly divided this land belonging to China coldly, and designated it as "ordinary Chinese cannot enter."

Even if they are Qu Ning and Tang Shaoshuai, when they arrive at this road village, they need to be symbolically inspected.

After being inspected a moment later, the car finally drove away from the barricade, Qu Ning looked back in the direction of those soldiers, at this moment, she couldn't ignore the cry in her heart, those things that for various reasons, perhaps because of cowardice and selfishness, had persuaded her to turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye, and turn a blind eye to what she heard and not heard, when these evil consequences were clearly placed in front of her, her guilt could no longer be concealed.

As the former eldest princess and the current young marshal lady, she suddenly felt that there was still too much she could do.

Qu Ning's mood was almost irrepressibly low.

Tang finally glanced at her, held her hand tightly, and his words knocked on her heart in a low voice: "One day, I want our countrymen to be able to walk on any piece of land in our country at will, there will be such a day." ”

Qu Ning muttered: "There will be ......"

Xu was because of this little episode, and when they arrived at the coffee shop they had agreed to meet, they were a little later than expected. Moreover, both of them had gloomy faces and were not in a high mood.

It's just that when the black-haired and black-eyed couple walked into the coffee shop side by side, a tall and blond man who was already sitting in the hall saw them from a distance - too conspicuous, who let this coffee shop be full of foreigners?

The man's slightly plump face showed a very happy smile, and he waved at them from afar, shouting, "Kingsley!"

When Tang Zhong's eyes fell on the man's face, he finally showed a sincere smile, and replied in the same English: "Long time no see, Joseph!" ”

Qu Ning cheered up, smiled and held the man's hand, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, she seemed to casually glance at the man who was obviously waiting for them at the door, but in fact, she recognized it at a glance, the other party was Tang Zhong who showed her, the other protagonist in that photo, Joseph Rodster.

This man is the supplier of many American-made ordnance in the hands of Tang Shaoshuai, and he is also one of the largest monopoly chaebols in the United States, one of the members of the Rodest family.

"Wow, Kingsley, your girlfriend is beautiful!" Joseph walked over and sighed in English to Tang Zhong, his warm gaze swiped slightly on Qu Ning's body, this admiration seemed to be with twelve points of sincerity.

Tang Shaoshuai was stunned, and before he could speak in a hurry, Qu Ning next to him had already lifted the skirt slightly, and made a very pure British aristocratic skirt ceremony, and replied with a smile in fluent English: "Xiexie, your praise, but I am not his girlfriend, but his wife." Hello," she smiled and held out her hand, "my name is Ningqu."

Joseph was stunned: "Wife? His gaze shrank slightly, and he looked at Qu Ning slightly, a little surprised, "You can still speak English?" Although the accent is a little strange, it is obviously not the ability to only speak two sentences, such a Westernized woman was rare in China at that time. Joseph had just come ashore on a sea ship from the United States, and before he could do a background check on the young marshal's wife, he was arrested to talk about business.

"There is an old Chinese saying, "Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black," Qu Ning curled the corners of her lips, and Shi Shiran joked, "Even if I don't speak English, I have to learn English in order to marry this handsome man who has returned from studying abroad next to me." ”

Such bold, open words were given a thumbs up by Joseph: "Kingsley, what a blessing!" "A look of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Tang finally hooked the corners of his lips, and the smile on the corner of his mouth at this moment showed that his angular appearance was exceptionally handsome and proud. He smiled and hugged Qu Ning's slender body in his arms, and said to Joseph in a particularly proud tone: "My greatest luck is that I can marry such a wife. However, this kind of luck is something that many people can't get. ”

Joseph nodded yes, and while leading the two into the door, he also smiled and said: "But you Chinese people marry wives, they are all to be placed at home, but we are different," glanced at Qu Ning, "understand English, know how to advance and retreat, sexually intelligent, such a woman, in our country, can not be said to be a successful businesswoman, but put it here with you, because of all kinds of rules and bad habits, I am afraid that it is only the life of a husband and a child." ”

After listening to his words, Tang Zhong shook his head slightly: "Joseph, you misunderstood. If I'm just going to let you meet and count, why are you here? Why did you ask you to join Tonks? He glanced at the woman who was leaning against him obediently in his arms, and sighed softly, almost inaudibly, "In less than a month, I have to leave for the Northeast." In Shangjing, the only person who can represent me and make full decisions is my wife. His hand holding Qu Ning's waist tightened slightly, as if he wanted to let go, but he still refused, "In my absence, you have to talk to her about your business." ”

Joseph froze.

Qu Ning was also stunned.

What's the horse? Young marshal, you put a burden on me, shouldn't you tell me in advance? Suddenly, I came to such a set, and I was not psychologically prepared at all!

Is it really okay to believe me like this?

***

Although it was temporarily driven to the shelves, since Tang Zhong had already said so, Qu Ning naturally would not collapse his stage in person.

In addition to Joseph from the Rodester family in the United States, Michael from Germany and Tonks from the Duke family in the United States met at the café that day.

Although Joseph and Tonks are both from the United States, their involvement in the two is different, the Rodest family is best at arms, weapons and ammunition, while the Duke family specializes in financial investment - Qu Ning also learned on this day, it turned out that at this time, the stock trade in the international market was already very active.

At the same time, it means a big profit or a big loss, and the reason why her brother signed the 21st Article with Japan last time was because of the emptiness of the treasury - and this emptiness was actually caused by the last stock market crash! It is also for this reason that the Chinese royal family is synonymous with people who are stupid and quick to grab money in the American stock market.

However, Tang Shaoshuai asked Tonks to come this time, but it was to discuss the loan, but the two sides repeatedly fought over the collateral, interest rate and the amount of the loan, and it took a lot of effort for the boss, but in the end it was not negotiated.

As for Michael, Marshal Tang has been asking him questions about urging German technicians and some machines, but Michael is obviously the proudest of the three - not surprisingly, the German mechanical shijie is famous, and at that time, it was also the top of the shijie. From jishu to talent, it is a seller's market, which creates Michael's strong confidence.

Qu Ning looked at Tonks and Michael with slightly arrogant expressions, her heart was as uncomfortable as ten thousand ants devouring her heart, she gritted her teeth, and then glanced at Tang Shaoshuai beside her, when several people began to test each other again, she suddenly spoke: "Tonks," called him by his name, "I want to ask you, if I want to borrow a sum of money to speculate in stocks in the short term, can you call the shots?" ”

Tonks was stunned.

Although Tang Shaoshuai said just now that in the future, the Tang family and their business dealings will be decided by his wife, everyone knows that the women in China are all decorations behind men. Even if Tang Shaoshuai said this, in his eyes, he still thought it was a passing scene. Who knew that before they finished talking about the business, the woman who was only making a vase and didn't say a word suddenly spoke up, and he realized that his previous judgment might have been wrong, and hurriedly remedied: "If it is a short-term loan, as long as the value of the collateral is sufficient, of course it can." Seeing that Qu Ning was still frowning and didn't seem to be satisfied, he coughed and took a step back, "Actually, some intangible things can also be used as collateral, but madam, if you lose money in stock trading, it will be a big loss...... Sometimes, you really need a little luck from the god of luck. He smiled slightly, glanced at Qu Ning and said with a meaningful smile, "But just look at the young lady's appearance, the young lady's luck must be extremely haode." "It's not extremely haode, how can you marry a husband like Tang Shaoshuai, right?

Qu Ning glanced at him, and then smiled proudly: "So, how much can I borrow if I use my princess status and the reputation of the young lady of the Tang family as collateral?" ”

Tonks was a little surprised: "Are you sure? ”

At this time, Tang Shaoshuai, who was listening to them, suddenly coughed lowly, stretched out his hand to cover Qu Ning's palm, looked at her and smiled, and didn't ask her if she was confident: "Then, add my promise as well." How much can I borrow from you in the short term if I mortgage my identity with hers? ”

Tonks came back to his senses in surprise and replied flatly: "Two hundred thousand." Two hundred thousand dollars. He narrowed his eyes, "As long as you and your wife make a promise, there will be no problem in borrowing 200,000 yuan from me in the short term." ”

"So what is the stock price of P&V Daily Chemical Company now?" Qu Ning didn't seem to understand the hidden traps in his words, and asked again.

Tonks squinted his eyes and looked at the young woman, but he didn't hesitate to answer, obviously caring about the stock price every day: "Three dollars three." ”

"Okay, I promise you a promise with the young marshal, your loan here will be used for me to buy P&V daily chemicals, and the stock price has plummeted......" Qu Ning narrowed her eyes, and the words that came out of her mouth were clear and concise, "I'll buy it, and P&V will fall below two yuan in a month." ”

The author has something to say: Anyway, the new notebook arrived today, because it was new, so it was uncomfortable to type...... Crying blind......

I haven't finished writing a chapter until now. It's ...... stumble
