CHAPTER XXXVIII
After listening to Rong Zifan's performance, Zixiao couldn't help frowning and said, "Why don't you change it." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Wu Yuzhen disagreed: "Why change." I heard Fan Fan play quite well and is very proficient. ”
Rong Zixiao patiently explained: "She is just skilled and does not make mistakes. Listening to her play this song, I felt that my feelings were not expressed at all. Maybe it's because Fan Fan is too young to understand the composer's state of mind. ”
Rong Zifan also knew her own problem, she looked at Jiang Yuerong, hoping to hear her opinion: "Sister Yuerong, I actually like this song very much." I've been practicing for the past few days, and the more I practice, the more I like it. But I don't know why, I just feel that there is something shortcoming. ”
Jiang Yuerong smiled: "You played really well." Your fingers are so nimble that even a layman like me can tell how difficult this piece is, and yet you play it so accurately. She flipped through the sheet music, and said while thinking, her voice was like a warm spring breeze: "Although I can't play the piano, I have seen the story of this piece from the book." I remember that this piano piece was composed by Chopin after hearing that the Warsaw Revolution was bloodily suppressed by the Russian army. At that time, he was suddenly indignant when he received the news of the failure of the uprising, the fall of the capital, and the invasion of Warsaw by Tsarist Russia. He hated why he couldn't defend his country with a weapon in his hand, and he hated himself for being far away with his bare hands. Although Jiang Yuerong's voice has not changed, her voice has become more and more firm and full of power: "Chopin thought of his hometown filled with gunpowder and the revolutionaries who fell in a pool of blood, and turned all his anger and pain into notes from burning emotions to create this "Revolutionary Etude". You will definitely be able to feel the indomitable will, fortitude and fearless heroism in the music. The author closely linked his fate with the motherland and this song, which is exactly his brave and strong struggle and never-ending cry for the motherland! ”
Jiang Yuerong's voice was soft and dignified, but it was full of a passion that was enough to deceive people's hearts. Rong Zixiao stood up involuntarily and slowly approached her. He saw her bright eyes sparkle as if they were two small flames.
Rong Zifan's heart was surging, and he only felt that an irrepressible emotion hit his heart, and he was eager to burst out. Before she knew it, she was playing again. The inspiring melody, the spirit of struggle and resistance, hovered over the Rong Mansion for a long time.
-------------------------------------
Li Shiqun was almost wholeheartedly looking forward to the opening of the trading company, because he was so short of money!
The newly formed Action Brigade had to pay more than 100 people rations, and the bombed-out No. 76 Western Wall had to be rebuilt, and what gave him the most headache was the pension of the Japanese military police detachment that Ryoko Fukada had put on his head. Originally, he also wanted to apply for a fund from the Japanese military department to solve his urgent needs.
Fortunately, Rong Zizhong was really effective, and the Southeast Trading Company opened smoothly. The first business, according to Rong Zizhong's idea, was to prepare to buy a batch of cotton yarn in Shanghai.
"Buying cotton yarn?" Li Shiqun asked, "Where will there be any profits?" "There are many textile mills in Shanghai and its surroundings, and the price of cotton yarn is not high. The market demand is already saturated, and Li Shiqun can't figure out what profit this deal will have.
Whether the profit is high or not depends mainly on where the goods are sold.
Rong Zizhong is confident.
"Where are you going to sell it?" Li Shiqun asked.
A little farther away.
"Where is it farther away?"
Rong Zizhong opened the map and pointed to a point.
"What? ...... are you going to sell it to" Li Shiqun's eyes widened, and he stared at Rong Zizhong's fingers without blinking.
Of course, how can you make money?
Li Shiqun's mood was agitated. He stood up, paced back and forth in the room for a few steps, and then turned around and asked Rong Zizhong: "Does your eldest brother know about this?" ”
Rong Zizhong nodded.
"You've been planning to do that for a long time, haven't you?"
Rong Zizhong once again gave an affirmative reply.
"Okay then." Li Shiqun is rich and dangerous, how can he not take some risks when doing things? He gritted his back molars and gambled on it!
---------------------------------------
Rong Zizhong finally met Zixiao in the company.
Although Zixiao had a cold attitude, she didn't kick him out either.
"I heard that you have been looking for me a few days ago, what is the important matter?" Rong Zixiao asked.
I want to do business with you.
"Doing business? What kind of business do you do? Rong Zixiao was a little surprised.
Zizhong handed over a business card with his name printed on it, and the title was General Manager of the Southeast Trading Company.
Rong Zixiao glanced at it and threw the business card on the table: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Rong Ershao has been promoted." Why, if you don't make a follower for Young Master Rong, you will find another job? ”
Rong Zixiao's attitude was completely expected by Zizhong. After experiencing the fierce conflict in Dexing Pavilion, it is normal for Zixiao to have a grudge against his eldest brother. It's just that he is caught between his brothers and is in an extremely awkward situation. He can understand Zixiao's mood, and he also feels distressed from the bottom of his heart. He never expected that after he made it clear that he was on the side of his eldest brother, Zixiao would greet him with a smile. But what he can do now is extremely limited. He only ignored his cynicism, but straightforwardly explained the purpose and disposition of this visit, and expressed the idea of buying the cotton yarn of Rong's textile factory.
"Shanghai has cotton yarn, why do you want to find our house?" Rong Zixiao raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously.
That's my problem, not yours.
"And how do you know I'm willing to sell it to you?" Rong Zixiao asked a little provocatively.
You're in business anyway, who are you doing it with?
Seeing that Rong Zixiao was about to raise the bar, Zizhong raised his hand to stop him.
Now the supply of cotton yarn in the Shanghai market is oversupply, and various textile mills are in a recession. The reason is that the new government and the Japanese imposed a road blockade, and the cotton yarn produced could not be shipped, resulting in a backlog of stocks. Now that I have the channels to deal with your backlog of products at a reasonable price, what else do you have to consider? Business is business, one yard is one yard, why bother with money!
Rong Zixiao never knew that Zizhong also had such a "tirade", it seems that he really learned from someone. He has been with his eldest brother for a long time, and he does have some eloquence. Rong Zixiao knows that what Zizhong said is not unreasonable. During the war, the economy itself was sluggish, and various blockades and suppressions made the pressure on Rong's enterprises indeed great. As long as the conditions are reasonable, this time it can even be said that it is a business opportunity that automatically comes to the door without losing money, and if it is left on others, I am afraid that I will be busy agreeing to it a long time ago. It's just that he still has doubts in his heart.
Rong Zizhong saw his hesitation.
I don't get involved in your affairs with your eldest brother. As for this business, I can trust you and pay you first. You don't have to take any risks. Moreover, it is possible that there will be long-term cooperation in the future.
"So, one last question." Rong Zixiao is not a mother-in-law, so she immediately decided: "It's also my first question, why are you looking for me?" ”
Rong Zizhong smiled.
It's simple, just because you're my brother!
