Chapter 152: Hidden Fame
Two days later, there was a powerful news that spread from Harbin in the northeast to Qiongzhou. From the city that never sleeps, Shanghai Beach, all the way to Chengdu. Wu Liande, a well-known infectious disease expert and medical doctor, personally spoke out, claiming that in the fight against the Spanish flu that swept the world, garlic, the most common and common thing on the table of the Chinese people, can effectively prevent and treat this flu, with a success rate of up to 78%.
As soon as the news came out, the whole country was shaken, and Duan Zhizhi also personally called Wu Liande to ask about the authenticity of the news. After receiving Wu Liande's affirmative reply, the propaganda led by the government also launched vigorously. Even the Southern Revolutionary Army, which was fighting against Beiyang, suspended its offensive and began to propagate the same arguments as Beiyang in the control area. All of a sudden, the price of garlic soared, and there was a trend of expensive Luoyang paper. Fortunately, this thing is too common, the output is large, it is easy to store, and it is easy to transport, no matter how much speculation is speculated, the price can be affordable for ordinary people. All of a sudden, chewing garlic has become a fashion at the dinner table and at work, and various ways to eat garlic have emerged. When people see each other, you're embarrassed to talk to someone if you don't pull out a few cloves of garlic from your pocket.
It doesn't matter what others do, now he just wants to see and say that he looks up to the sky and laughs three times to express his joy and show off. It's an ordinary Axe Gang, and in addition to garlic in his pocket recently, there is a lot of silver in his pocket. The face is full of confidence and confidence, even if he wields an axe and other gangs to grab the territory, it is also a tiger. Some gangs that are against the Axe Gang have speculated that the leader of the Axe Gang is so big-handed, even the most ordinary minions give drugs before they start, in the face of such a big dog, who can stop it! For a while, the Axe Gang was in the limelight.
The bank loan has been repaid long ago, and the rest of the money is all profit. The deed of the Axe Gang and the deed of the Kong Mansion are now in front of Jing Dingcheng and Kong Lingkan respectively along with two Citibank checks. At first, Kong Lingkan also complained about Wang Mengxiong's strategy of selling garlic at a low price, but as soon as Dr. Wu Liande's research results were made public, the price of garlic doubled instantly, and the money he earned was no less than that of those merchants who sold medicinal materials at high prices. You must know that the purchase price of this thing is low and the quantity is large, and the difference of one point often increases the profit by tens of thousands on the whole.
Looking at the deed on the coffee table and the Citibank check with a series of zeros written on it, the old housekeeper's intestines were about to turn blue, and he looked at Wang Mengxiong with a look of resentment, and almost sprayed his resentment directly on his face. As an old and refined guy, he knows best what kind of person his young master is. This method of darkening Chen Cang must have been thought up by Wang Mengxiong, and if he couldn't help but tell him and personally give orders to the guys outside, this idea must have been Wang Mengxiong's idea. Although the family was unharmed, and they also ate meat and drank soup, the old housekeeper was just uncomfortable. Because Kong Xi's resentment is not as endured as he is, if it weren't for the phone line, it could be sprayed on his face and poured directly into his stomach.
Wang Mengxiong Lingjue is so strong, of course the old housekeeper's resentment can be felt. But it's one thing to feel it, it's another thing to take it to heart. As a whistleblower this time, the old butler must have gained a lot. People are grateful and content, and they should order as many meals as they have a big belly. If you don't know how to advance and retreat, you will eat hard, and if you hold on to a small matter, you will lose your stomach and die!
"Big brother, I can see that if you do any business in the future, it is safest to partner with you. You have earned more than others in several lifetimes. Now that I am also a wealthy person, why don't we join forces and do a career in Shanghai? ”
The victories again and again made Kong Lingkan's admiration for Wang Mengxiong reach the point where the turbulent river is endless, and the flooding of the Yellow River is out of control. He is now thinking about how to hug Wang Fan's brother's thighs and how to impress his father. As for whether Wang Mengxiong can be clever and invincible every time, it is not within the scope of his consideration.
"Oh? This is a person with a net worth? I think your net worth will definitely shrink significantly after your aunt comes back, and your net worth will not be much better than before. After your aunt's pass, you can discuss with me about breaking into a career in Shanghai! ”
Wang Mengxiong's words are well-founded, and they are by no means to crack down on Brother Kong's nonsense. Although Kong Xi was born as a merchant in Jin Province, most of his property was saved after marrying Song Ai, and the eldest sister of the Song family made great contributions here, so she mastered the financial power of the family. Some small amounts, Sister Song can't look at them, maybe she will let them go gently. Now that Kong Lingkan has followed Wang Mengxiong's operation and earned such a big cake, he will not be able to resist eating it, and the ghost will believe it!
"Big brother, you ...... It's also so devastating! ”
Kong Lingkan was instantly defeated from a winner in life to a small Zhengtai of the Kong family, and he also knew that what Wang Mengxiong said was right. What is his own mother, he knows best as a son. What's more, in addition to using private money this time, he also secretly mortgaged the Confucian Mansion. To say that my mother doesn't know is to deceive herself. Whether it was the money made by hoarding medicinal herbs before, or the money made by selling garlic this time, I am afraid that even the decimal point will be clear to the mother. Thinking of this, he also glanced at the old housekeeper with resentment, and looked at the old guy as creepy, knowing that the young master of the Wang family said a word, which made his young master hate himself. "But can you blame me? What I eat, drink, take, and live in, which one is not provided by the old lady? If I don't take the initiative to report, when the two of them come back, can I still stay in the Kong family? Forget it, to be a slave you have to have the consciousness of being a slave, no matter what the young master thinks, I will still do it in the future. ”
After some inspiration, the old housekeeper quickly adjusted his mentality, imagining that if Mrs. could control the money earned by the little master this time, it was estimated that no one would be able to shake her favored status in the future. Kong Lingkan's grievances were quickly ignored by him, and he had already typed the draft in private, and waited for a while to go out and take a telegram to his wife, never letting the penny of the private money saved by Young Master Ling Kan slip through the net.
The epidemic in Shanghai has gradually subsided, and life has returned to its former calm. Although Wang Mengxiong did not treat a single flu patient during the epidemic, almost half of Huaxia Shenzhou had to bear his kindness. However, it was Wu Liande and them who were lively, and Wang Mengxiong had nothing but a huge fortune. Walking on the street, he suddenly reached out and stroked the hem of his robe, threw it behind him in a chic manner, strode forward with his head held high, and an ancient poem appeared in his mind: Brush away when things happen, hide merit and fame!
"Oh, how did you walk and step on my foot!"
A coquettish Wu Nong's soft words made Wang Mengxiong return to the street from the artistic conception of the fierce ancient style, and looked at a woman in a cheongsam dressed in a fancy dress in front of him who was bending over and rubbing her feet, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sister!" I patronized to look at your flowers and moon, but I didn't care about your feet! Having said that, sister, you are so good-looking, just like a fairy in a picture. Can you wait a few years for me? ”
The woman was angry, and was praised by Wang Mengxiong for a few words, and her face bloomed in her heart, and she asked curiously while covering her mouth and smiling: "What are you waiting for a few years?" ”
"What are you doing, of course, when I grow up to be as old as you, I can carry a sedan chair to marry you!"
"Little guy, when you grow up, your sister is also old, and your youth is no longer there, I'm afraid you won't say that!"
The woman touched Wang Mengxiong's head, and pinched his pink face hard, before turning around and limping away.
Wang Mengxiong touched his face and secretly said that it was dangerous. Fortunately, with the face of a child, he used a killer weapon in time, otherwise he would not have easily escaped if he stepped on the little feet of such a beauty, you must know that his feet are very heavy, and I didn't see that the woman's feet were lame!
