097 Business

The first batch of special training team members all participated in the operation in Huxi and the wharf, except for Andre who took the initiative to drive a truck without any protection and was seriously injured, and one team member was scratched a little oilskin, and there was no major problem.

According to the merits of the battle, Pu Su and they had to distribute the rewards, but this job was the most headache, and when Pu Su returned to Rafeld Road, he was still frowning in the hall and calculating how to distribute it.

This kind of reward cannot be a vote to see the mood and share a vote, but to form a rule, which can be used for reference in the future. It stands to reason that the easiest way to do this is to send the money directly. But these Belarusians and their families do not understand what it means to be "low-key", and sending money directly will lead to very troublesome consequences.

When Li Wenjuan saw Pu Su coming back, she hurriedly poured him tea, watched him write and draw on paper, and couldn't help but ask if there was anything she could do to help. Pu Su said casually, "Troublesome, I don't know how to distribute it......"

After listening to this, Li Wenjuan asked him about the amount of statistics, and said, "Since there is no shortage of food, it is redundant for you to give them beef and eggs, so it is better to ......."

So, the next day, Li Wenjuan was led to the "fortress" by Pu Su, and the family let Scar sit in the hall downstairs. Pu Su was still a little distrustful of them before, but after this period of training, and they participated in two head-off operations together, it was no problem for them to watch their homes.

Li Wenjuan was born in a commercial family in Beiping, although she has never set foot in the business field under the influence of feudal tradition, but she is particularly sensitive to numbers and business.

Seeing her skillfully calculating, Pu Su even suspected that her hand speed in sending the report was probably because of the basis of the previous plan. After she arrived at the fortress, it took her two days to check the seizures and family resources, including the arms reserves, and the account books of the old man's previous side, and made a filing cabinet by category.

Then on the third day, she solemnly called Pu Su and Alyosha and Lao Ren, and of course, her best friend Bai Mantong was also present.

The impact of this extraordinary meeting on the entire French Concession in the future was far-reaching enough, but no one thought about it at that time, including the initiator Li Wenjuan.

Li Wenjuan gave the numbers in front of everyone. Then, according to the current prices in Shanghai, it was converted into more intuitive rice, flour, oil and meat dishes. Although it may seem like a staggering number, in fact, for a huge community, it simply doesn't last long.

Especially as Alyosha has already announced in public, the promised rewards cannot be a temporary system that is available today and not tomorrow.

In other words, don't look at the lot of liquidity on the books, in fact, even according to the current prices, if you want to support the fortress community built by Pusu, it won't last long. Moreover, the price of rice and noodles alone is the same every day, and it is impossible not to increase the price.

This kind of thing is one or the other, and it can't be endless. It is common sense to go out and act as soon as you have no money, and sooner or later you will have to expose your hiding. Each operation requires a large number of people and vehicles, and it is okay to launch it once in a while, but if it becomes normalized, it must be exposed. When the time comes, it will become the target of the public, and it will not be able to play at all.

Li Wenjuan didn't say any nonsense, but just took the price of rice and noodles as an example and made a conversion with the people who need to bear it now, and made an estimate of the approximate amount that each person needs to consume per day and the current price, which actually can't last for three months.

This is still a normal distribution ratio. If calculated according to the benefits announced by Alyosha, it can be maintained for a shorter time. It's just that in fact, the military order is like a mountain. The decree that was promulgated will not be withdrawn by either Pusu or Alyosha and must be implemented.

Hearing this, Pu Su's face was not good-looking.

There are indeed many traitors and villains on the beach, and there are also many traitorous compradors, but it is not in line with their original intention to act every once in a while to collect money.

And the piecemeal impact is very bad, in fact, the effect is not very large. It may be that the looting of several traitors in a row is not as good as the harvest this time.

Besides, as long as such a thing happens several times in a row, it must be prevented. At that point, the chances of casualties and exposures during operations will be greatly increased.

At this time, Bai Mantong took the initiative to ask Li Wenjuan if there was any good way.

Only then did Li Wenjuan explain her thoughts in Pu Su's expectant eyes.

"In a freaky and prosperous city like Shanghai, the only way to do it is to rely on commerce. It must be used to maintain the war effectively in order to be effective, and the risk and cost of the previous strategy of fighting the war are too great. ”

As soon as Li Wenjuan said her thoughts, Pu Su, Lao Ren and Alyosha involuntarily exchanged glances.

That's right, guarding the cornucopia of Shanghai, if you only want to grab it violently, it is undoubtedly a stupid act. Even if Shanghai has fallen on all sides, it is still the largest giant city in the Far East.

It has the densest population and is filled with elites from all walks of life in every country. If you start a business, it is equivalent to getting rid of the empty mountain and letting the capital flow, and many goods that cannot be sold for a while can also be circulated through serious buying and selling.

It's just that they are all rough people and don't understand the elite at all. Many of them are well versed in business, but due to various considerations, it is impossible for them to explain their economic lifeline and all kinds of secrets to them and let them take care of them.

At this time, Bai Mantong took the initiative to ask Li Wenjuan and asked her if she had any good ideas. Li Wenjuan hesitated for a while before saying that she had just arrived in Shanghai and had gone out twice in total, and she needed to go out to inspect how to get a general idea.

As she said this, she inadvertently glanced at Pu Su. As her superior, Pu Su didn't speak, and she didn't even step out of the door. As an excellent party member, she can distinguish the priorities, and as a newspaper operator was stationed in Shanghai, her first job is to cooperate with Pu Su to ensure the safety of the radio station.

For her eyes, Pu Su only pretended not to see it. Although Li Wenjuan's suggestion is undoubtedly very practical, he understands that he did not come to Shanghai to do business after all. All the planning is just to better cooperate with the completion of the task and the anti-Japanese salvation. If there is a conflict between them, there is no doubt that all of them will have to give way to the first priority.

At this time, the old thief said awkwardly, since there are so many shops in his hands, it is actually better to take it over and do it himself. In the French Concession, he can handle the white way, and the black way, needless to say, they themselves are the biggest underworld, there is no one.

Therefore, he felt that it was better to do it himself every month than to put out the store and collect rent. Especially when I saw that the prices in Shanghai were rising steadily, I thought that those store operators had made a fortune, and I felt that I couldn't miss this opportunity.

Originally, he thought that as soon as this idea came out, at least Li Wenjuan would be able to support him, but it turned out that Li Wenjuan was the first to oppose it. Most of the tenants of the stores are White Russians, and it is not easy for them to work hard in the French Concession, and the rise in prices does not mean that the profits of merchants have also risen sharply, and business freedom is its law.

Lao Ren wanted to save face the most, and after being refuted by Li Wenjuan, he didn't buy it at all. What I thought in my heart was why I didn't remember to clean up this little girl's skin when I was detained, and now I dare not give him face. So he wanted to mess around with her, and it wasn't until Li Wenjuan made a clear explanation one by one that he gradually weakened his prestige.

Li Wenjuan's attitude was that since the "Russian Chamber of Commerce" had been established and Alyosha was still the president, then he would participate in business activities. Even if it only holds some shares in name, each store has a stake. In addition, in the name of the store owner, you can also invest in the shares, and the store is used as the share capital to participate, and then form part control of the store, and the actual operation is still carried out by the original merchant.

In this way, the safety of the original business is guaranteed, and the expenses are reduced to the original rent. Earn more points, earn less at least don't lose. For merchants, it reduces the cost and risk, and it should not be too resistant.

Her idea won Bai Mantong's support in the first place. Now that communities and fortresses have been formed, the White Russians in the region are all their own people, and the rough approach proposed by Lao Ren is obviously inappropriate.

Many of the team members' family members were originally operators, such as Sasha's father, who rented their shop and opened a tailor's shop. Directly kicked out his father, can everyone have no opinion?

Although compared to the tens of thousands of White Russians in the French Concession, there were only more than 1,000 White Russians in the fortress. But the relationship between them is also very complicated, and Alyosha plans to expand the scale, slowly absorbing some of the best military backgrounds who had previously been in the Public Concession to supplement the military forces on his side.

To do this, an impeccable reputation is required. If, like the previous gangsters, he only exploits his compatriots, then there is no doubt that his cohesion here will be greatly reduced.

Besides, business needs professionals, so many stores can only sit and wait to lose money if no one takes care of them, or take the tailor shop as an example, and find another reliable tailor and manager, and it is very likely that the rent will not be able to be collected at that time.

Bai Mantong and Alyosha's final opinion is that Alyosha is in the name of the Chamber of Commerce, and then they will send a shop owner, that is, the landlord, to convene a meeting of the rental merchants to turn the previous nominal "Russian Chamber of Commerce" into a real Chamber of Commerce.

In fact, Pu Su has no objection to this operation, but according to the current situation, the only one with business skills is Li Wenjuan, if she comes forward to take charge of business operations, he thinks about it and seems to have no impact on sending and receiving newspapers.

Since the fortress has been formed, it also has a certain amount of self-preservation. The high-power radio could be transferred to the fortress without being alone in his residence. No matter how clever the arrangement of the shikumen is, if someone else breaks in in a targeted manner, it can only mean that it has been exposed, and the protection at that time is quite limited.

In this way, they need to give Li Wenjuan a suitable ins and outs. Fortunately, Li Wenjuan was originally a young lady from a large family, and although she is a woman, it is relatively normal for her age to show up and take over the industry.

Therefore, in the end, they drew up an office address for the Chamber of Commerce, and set up an office for Li Wenjuan in the mansion, and there were usually team members on duty at the door. Move the radio station here, and work is done here.

In this way, all the previous arrangements of Pusu were overturned. The Shikumen dwelling will become safer, and on the surface it will seem to be just a simple dwelling. And that secret passage space can be used for other purposes, to store some spare things.

Of course, as Pu Su's nominal wife, she also needs a reasonable status to participate in business activities. It just so happens that Li Wenjuan's Beiping background and accent can be used well to make up the identity of a former Qing prince and nobleman for her.

In this way, Pu Su has become an old black face who looks like the world eats soft rice. Although his appearance is not very online, the more he is like this, the more credible he is. In Chinese society, there have always been many men who eat soft rice and hard food. When others saw it, they muttered at most, "Good cabbage is ......"

After all these have been discussed, all that remains is to wait for Lao Ren to revise the title deed and house deed. What Pu Su didn't expect was that after that, Lao Ren took out a stack of house deeds and said that he would let Li Wenjuan take care of it. Only then did they know how Lao Ren's true net worth had accumulated before, but they couldn't see it at all.

This is also the reason why Lao Ren's hands and feet have been very clean when he was in charge of accounts before. It stands to reason that this guy is not an honest person, and there is no need to worry about Gu Ji handing over the accounts to him after the Wang family sisters who were originally in charge of the accounts left. It is because Lao Ren has reaped enough benefits when he cleared up the White Russian gangsters before, and there is no need to do anything on these accounts.

Of course, his actions to enrich his own pockets were also carried out by Gu Ji's acquiescence.

After all the resources were integrated, several people analyzed the industry again, and Li Wenjuan proposed that it was necessary to reopen a radio trading house, ostensibly to do the business of importing radio broadcasts and spare parts, but in fact to provide radio spare parts to the border areas. And at this time in Shanghai, radio was indeed a good business.

In addition, the rice, flour, grain and oil business, which Belarus had not been able to get involved in before, must also be operated in the future. Obtained a license from the French Concession and opened a foreign bank to directly import flour and Siamese rice. With rice grain, both the fortress and the border area are solved to solve the urgent need.

The pharmacies originally operated by Belarus will be expanded from a single routine drug operation to the import of controlled drugs and medical equipment. These are strategically important material reserves. With the addition of some advanced medical equipment to the border area, I don't know how many soldiers' lives can be saved.

In the past, because they could not obtain the relevant licenses and approvals, the pharmacies run by Belarus could only sell some conventional medicines, and they were often out of stock. Now let Lao Ren take the fiat currency up and down, and the formalities will be completed quickly. World War II has been fought very fiercely, and the public board of directors is not as strict as before, which leaves room for old slippers like Lao Ren to operate.
