Chapter 7 The proud son of the Lu family

Neon lights shine in the night of Shanghai, like colorful river lanterns, slowly paddling in the night sea, boldly splitting the quiet tranquility. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Hongkou Hotel is more and more dazzling under the red word lamp, standing in Hongkou District, showing its own bright color uniquely.

Li Hongli was in the lobby of the hotel, watching Lu Xian walking steadily in a well-tailored military uniform, so he asked someone to take the key to the suite and personally lead the way.

opened the door, Lu Xian left two guards outside, closed the door with Li Hong with the adjutant, took off his hat and threw it on the table, put one hand on the sofa, and placed the other hand in front of his waist, slightly lazy.

Li Hong turned around and poured a cup of Lafite, then placed it on the table in front of Lu Xian, took a step back, buried his head slightly, and said respectfully: "Third Shao, my subordinates have found out." The mysterious man in black who rescued Qingtian that day was the underground Communist Party that was active in North China four years ago, codenamed Guanyin. ”

Lu Xian was a little irritable and ripped off the dark green tie of his collar, unbuttoned a few buttons, and the beautiful butterfly-shaped collarbone under the slightly sliding Adam's apple was faintly visible. When he heard Li Hong's reply, he was a little surprised, narrowed his cold eyes, and cross-examined: "Guanyin? ”

"Yes. It was the underground Communist Party that suddenly appeared in North China four years ago with the code name Guanyin. Three years ago, when his subordinates were ordered to transport private gunpowder in Tianjin, they fought with him. Li Hong said that he couldn't help but be a little resentful, three years ago, the lord took a fancy to his ability to do things and deliberately promoted himself, so he ordered himself to go to North China to escort the guns and materials that had been stranded there for a long time back to Beiping, but unfortunately suddenly killed a trip on the way to bite the gold, Li Hong not only almost lost half his life, but even the guns and ammunition along the way were blown up by that Guanyin.

Li Hong thought that he would not have a bright future in his life, but he knew that Sanshao took a fancy to himself, and promoted himself a year later and let himself go to Shanghai. Although the task was arduous and not easy to complete, Li Hong gritted his teeth and persevered.

In the final analysis, Li Hong was a little grateful to Guanyin in his heart. After all, if there was no him, he might have to stay in Beiping and do a desperate business, and now he is following Sanshao, even if he is a puppet manipulated behind his back, but in the end, he can be regarded as a glamorous figure in front of himself, and he is one of the best young leaders in Shanghai.

Lu Xian picked up the red wine glass, hooked it between his fingers, and the bottom of his eyes was reflected in the dark red wine, which was a little inexplicably dim, "Can you find out where their stronghold is?" ”

"The subordinates are incompetent, and they haven't gained anything yet, but the third young man will give his subordinates a little more time..." Li Hong's scalp was a little numb, but he remembered the methods of the third young master very well, looking at the glamorous and noble person, but he was more ruthless than anyone else when he moved, and he didn't leave any affection.

Lu Xian interrupted Li Hong's request, he shook his red wine glass, his eyes were clear, "Okay, if you can find out, it will be a strange thing." ”

What is an underground Communist Party? A group of shrewd people who are cunning and cunning when they have nothing to do, but they like to take loyalty to the country to heart every day, and guerrilla warfare is the best at it, followed by underground organizations that are well-known far and near, and the intelligence department of the Northern Expeditionary Army may not be able to find out.

With Li Hong's means, it is already very good to be able to find out who it is, which shows that he has worked hard.

Thinking of the Northern Expeditionary Army, Lu Xian lowered his eyebrows, and there was an unpredictable mind in his eyes.

"Let's put this matter down for now." He leaned over and put the wine glass down, raised his eyes to look at him and said, "Do you know the second miss of the Lin family?" I need her information, you can prepare it. Give it to me in a few days. ”

This sentence is obviously not a question, Li Hong knew that this was Sanshao forgiving himself, and he did his best to respond: "Yes." ”

Lu Xian didn't want to continue to talk about this topic after he came out, compared to this, he was more interested in what earth-shattering changes had taken place in Shanghai's economy after he intervened.

After all, today's morning newspaper published the news that Takakawa Gakibayashi, president of Mitsubishi Corporation, of Mitsubishi & Co., committed suicide by poisoning his home last night.

"What's going on in the business world these days?"

Li Hong leaned forward slightly, bent slightly involuntarily, tried his best to hide the fear in his eyes, and replied: "In view of the fact that we invested in the shares of Mobil in the Bank of Shanghai in early March, the shares of Mobil began to soar in mid-April, and at the same time, the shares of Mitsubishi and Mobil, which have always been opposite to Mobil, have a downward trend. In June this year, due to your marriage to Miss Shen Si, the shares of the Shen family have a sharp upward trend with us at the same time, and the stocks of the Japanese Co., Ltd. have signs of recession, all the way down to the limit, and began to plummet last week, the most obvious of which is the stock of Mitsubishi Co., Ltd., which fell to the lowest point in the first three days, and many people were clamoring to withdraw their capital yesterday morning, and in the middle of the night last year, the president of Mitsubishi Corporation, which belongs to the Japanese Corporation, Takakawa Gakibayashi, committed suicide by taking poison. ”

"Now the Japanese consulate in China has also begun to intervene in this matter, and I heard that they are extremely dissatisfied and have great doubts about the death of Takakawa Gakirin."

Li Hong let the sweat on his forehead blur his eyes, and he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it, he didn't know whether it was cold sweat or hot sweat, every time he said a word, Li Hong's heart always had to weigh a few points.

In late February, Lu Xian led the order to Shanghai to serve as the town guard envoy, and became the veritable commander-in-chief of the Shanghai Military Department.

But in the end, some people are dissatisfied, and they protested outside the government office for three days with a shy face, but they can't do anything yet, because all the students who come are a group of students, and the leader claims to be their teacher. Even if you put on a wide tunic suit, you can't hide the restless thoughts under your eyes.

The students all shouted loudly for Lu Xian to get out of Shanghai, after all, Lu Xian came with the name of the direct army of the Beiyang warlords, and the Beiyang warlords were also the people's army in the first few years, but since Yuan Shikai took over, Sima Zhao's heart for wanting to be the emperor is well known. But it's nothing, it's no wonder that he didn't cherish it when he had this thought, and he fell his image again and again, which eventually led to the fact that among this group of patriotic young students, Yuan Shikai was an out-and-out hypocrite, and the real villain also promoted him.

As for why this group of students were incited to such thoughts, it is very simple.

The forces in Shanghai were mixed, and the concessions were rampant, among which Japan and France were the most obvious. The Japanese didn't want a third person to compete with them, so they found a suitable person in their own casino, a middle-aged man who was riddled with gambling debts but had some knowledge. Let him enter colleges and universities to incite rumors, saying that the new town guard envoy who took office after three months is actually a minion of the Yuan Party, who came to Shanghai to promote Yuan Party's policies.

Lu Xian is a minion of the Yuan Party, yes. His father was one of the leaders of the direct warlords, and he was born destined to have a title, Yuan Jun.

But this does not mean that he wants to promote the Yuan Party.

The current Beiyang government is well aware that Yuan Shikai is already in the past. And they, the children of warlords, know better that it is better not to mention Yuan Shikai casually.

It's a pity that Lu Xian let them make such a fuss, and didn't come forward, he was alone in the office and lightly corrected the documents, and only when there was no sound outside did Shi Shiran get up and walk out of the government hall, and ordered someone to distribute water to the group of troublesome students, but not to the man in the tunic suit.

It's not that Lu Xian is stingy, but that he is so flawed and will be retributed.

The March sun was very warm, covering Lu Xian's eyebrows, with a faint flow of brilliance. Many people still remember the picturesque man many years later, wearing an incompatible military uniform, but with an indescribable beauty, just standing lightly on the steps of the door, his eyes cold and arrogant.

"Enough trouble?"

As soon as he spoke, the splashed ink painting flowed, like a multi-faceted colorful lantern, each side of which was a carefully carved painting.

No one dared to speak out, not because they were afraid of the power of men, but because they were inexplicably just silent.

Perhaps as early as when they saw the man walking out of the inside, people's hearts shook.

People see a lot of men with beautiful faces. But a person with such a noble temperament has such a momentum to support with such a hand, this is the first time I have seen it.

Lu Xian's eyes swept over the group of students below, and when he saw the man in the tunic suit, he paused a few times. The man felt a biting chill inexplicably, and he didn't even notice the cold sweat on his forehead, and when Lu Xian turned his eyes, he felt a dampness and coldness behind him.

"The water is given to you because you are students. I don't detain you because you're students. Lu Xian's tone changed sharply and coldly: "But don't ruin this identity." The next time there is a dismissal, they will be expelled from the school and will not be allowed to re-enter the school for five years. Of course, if you don't learn to judge the situation, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

is just a few cold and indifferent words, but it is more effective than the previous ones.

Then the group of students had been in trouble for a few days and lost their morale, coupled with Lu Xian's warning now, thinking that this army commander had not killed much, but he had some trust in his heart, and this army commander might be different from the previous ones. Naturally, he rolled up the banner and returned to the school, as for the man in the tunic suit, he had already been detained by Lu Xian.

After that, things were solved all at once. When Lu Xian learned from the man's mouth that it was the Japanese who moved his hands and feet, the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer, and he didn't say anything, and directly asked the adjutant to take it down to deal with it.

And then there is the situation where today's Japanese business is like a lost dog.

Lu Xian leaned on the sofa and said, "Has Mitsubishi Bank declared bankruptcy?" ”

Li Hong frowned violently, obviously Lu Xian asked the point again, "Not yet, but my subordinates think that Mitsubishi Bank can declare bankruptcy in five days at the latest." But..."He paused and continued, "I'm afraid that at that time, the Japanese Chamber of Commerce will not stop and will raise funds to help Mitsubishi & Co. tide over the difficulties." ”

"Takakawa Wonlin is dead, how will they get through?" Lu Xian is also telling the truth. The friendship of the leader has been broken, how can Mitsubishi & Co. survive the difficulties.

"Sanshao, don't you know, Takakawa Gaki Lin has a daughter in Japan, and Ono Zhenxiong, the son of the vice president of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce, values his daughter very much. The subordinates are worried that the Takakawa family may marry the Ono family in order to survive this difficulty. Once they join forces, it will be difficult to deal with this matter anymore. ”

Lu Xian smiled after hearing this, and his eyebrows were cold: "It's just playing, why be so serious." ”

Just playing?

Li Hong's eyes were a little dumbfounded, he couldn't believe that such a twist and turn in the business world was just a joke for Lu Xian.

Lu Xian got up and bent down to pick up the military hat he had thrown on the table, and the wedding ring on his ring finger was particularly bright under the crystal lamp in the suite.

The adjutant opened the door for him, and the two guards outside the door immediately stood in a vigilant posture, and when Lu Xian came out, they did not leave an inch, and followed behind in unison.

Only Li Hong was stunned in place alone, and when he finally reacted, he was drenched in cold sweat and at a loss.

The pride of the Lu family is really scratching.
