Chapter 121: Please Come in the Bank
Li Guolou first told an old-fashioned beautiful words, all of which Wu Defu heard, and then returned to Bao Tong and Wu Defu with a slight change, anyway, this kind of high-sounding words, the Han people have been saying for thousands of years. Simply and concisely complimenting the two teachers, Li Guolou's words switched to the main topic.
"Master Bao, since you want me to say it, I will say it. First of all, of course, our main business cannot be lost, and what was originally lost must be taken back, and the Green Gang and the Axe Gang are the targets of our key crackdowns, but the Beijing division is always mixed with dirty work and tiring work, and this will be handed over to the militia to do. Then it is to integrate, amplify, and cover the interests of the entire Beijing Division, and even rush out of the Beijing Division and go to the surrounding areas, all of which must be done by a spokesperson, which requires Master Bao and Master Wu to find and promote new talents, and only those who have a pioneering spirit can be qualified for this heavy burden. β
Bao Tong was shocked: "Xiao Lizi, how come I have never discovered your talent, usually you always pretend to be pistachios stupidly, or you will keep fooling people." It turns out that you can still speak human words, no wonder Master Wu said that you are good at planning layouts and are people who do big things. β
After a few modest words, Li Guolou said: "In fact, we make money, or do the business we can control, the first is to give legitimate businessmen the confidence to open shops, the streets are full of shops, we can go all the way to collect money, empty shops, we don't even have a place to rest." Therefore, commercial development is imminent, those fake foreign devils are also waiting for such an opportunity, they place the first bet, we are waiting to collect the money, this is called a win-win situation, we don't want to spend a penny, as long as they give them confidence, they can't slaughter the fat sheep, otherwise people will see that the limelight is not right, and they will run into the concession. This is also the reason why the concession is becoming more and more prosperous, and we are still a backwater here. Therefore, the first people should give them a lot of meat, and give them preferential tax protection fees, so as to set an example for those who come behind. Our Qing Empire now has money in the hands of merchants, and we must find a way to let them invest their money in Beijing to build shops, hotels, and entertainment venues for Westerners, and make commerce active anyway. We can't get any benefits from building houses for ordinary people, so we have to block this road and list all kinds of restrictions. Only by building shops and opening restaurants can we support the business, and we must refocus the attention of the rich people in Tianjin on Jingshi, which is the heart of the motherland and has a bright future. β
Wu Defu nodded secretly, fantasizing about the blueprint for the future, and said together: "Xiao Lizi, it's too troublesome to open and close the shop, unlike the land that can be thrown there to make money." β
Li Guolou said: "Master Bao, this time and that time, the past was the era of farming, and money had to be spent on land in the end, and it had to rely on land mansions to reflect the value. Now is the era of large-scale industry and large-scale production, money is based on machine innovation and invention to reflect the value, rich foreigners, who are not big businessmen, do business to make a lot of money, relying on the sky to eat, it is impossible to get rich overnight. Mr. Bao, can the land you bought in your hometown and the house in Jingshi double in a year? But in the environment of large industry, it can be done by doing business, and it is turned up tenfold and hundredfold. My family's land is in charge of it, and the whole family has left their hometown. Besides, he has a bad reputation as a big landlord, and often fights with the common people for land and water. If you are still a businessman, people will say that you have credit. β
Bao Tong smiled and said, "Xiao Lizi, I heard that your eldest brother is coming, I want to visit in person, okay?" β
Li Guolou's face turned pale and frightened, his family was in Xie Xiuzhu's house, how could he let Bao come to the house together, and hurriedly said: "Hey-Master Bao, my brother is also your old friend, I am just coming to visit the New Year during the New Year, and I will come with my brother to invite us to dinner." β
Bao laughed together and said, "Surely, let Xiao Wu arrange it, and you two families will come together." β
Bao Tong wanted to show his strength in the business world, and he actually wanted to sell the land he had accumulated all his life, and the preliminary research work had already begun. Li Guolou saw that Bao Tong was so kind to Wu Defu, and believed that Bao Tong would give Wu Defu a fatal blow and make a big crime of rebellion, and no one dared to rehabilitate Wu Defu in his life. Fortunately, his family is powerful, and Bao Tong will not do anything to him.
Li Guolou is the best at reading people's expressions and guessing people's hearts, he has found that Bao Tong is becoming more and more polite to Wu Defu, abnormal is a demon, Bao Tong is demonic, and he wants to grasp the field of Jingshi. Li Guolou couldn't help but think of the "little minister" again, when will Bao Tong officially push the "little minister" to the forefront, and how will he treat the "little minister" "little minister". In Bao Tong's family, which one has the highest status of the son or the "little father"? Li Guolou couldn't help but think crookedly.
"Xiao Lizi, Lord Bao asked you something, you lost your soul."
Woken up by Wu Defu's scolding, Li Guolou suddenly said: "I didn't sleep all night last night, I'm sorry for being distracted." β
Bao sighed together: "The foreign girl is really amazing, I haven't been so powerful for a long time, but it can't be compared with Xiao Lizi, it can't be compared, I feel a little down." β
I envy Li Guolou for being able to fight well and crutch foreign girls, but he even let the foreign woman abandon her old friend, and she is capable of anything. Bao admired Li Guolou's ability to fight, but he hated Wu Defu for not knowing what to do, and dared to say bad things about his male pet Zhu Danyu behind his back, and he couldn't bear Wu Defu for a day or two. The family is complaining that he doesn't give his son a chance in Bao Quanzhong, the wind blows on both sides of the pillow, his wife Xu Xiaogu and the male pet Zhu Danyu are attacked left and right, and Bao is ready to train Li Guolou to become a cronie, as for the bribery, it is still handed over to the male pet Zhu Danyu, and the business is handed over to his son Bao Quanzhong, this is his century-old plan, and outsiders still collect a lot of money.
Li Guolou smiled and said: "Two adults, you are really, where is it not good to talk about business, but I came here to talk, and the blonde beauty is waiting for me outside, how can I have the heart to say it?" β
Bao Tong said angrily: "Xiao Lizi, I also want to be told by you, accompany me to see the foreign girl later, I want one that I didn't show you yesterday, that is, the ballet dancer, not a man, don't block me." β
Li Guolou admonished: "Master Bao, a ballet dancing woman, there are no flower heads, skin and bones, you think clearly." β
Bao made a chest pinching motion together, and wondered: "Then what's going on with her here?" β
Li Guolou sighed: "Lord Bao, aren't you a detective?" Can't tell the real from the fake? β
Bao Tong said angrily: "The foreign devil is fooling people, let's go and see it later, maybe there are still good goods that were taken away yesterday and came back today." He immediately changed his mind, and the foreign girl was still real.
Wu Defu said: "There are some things that we talk about when we do them, and now they are empty talk. Xiao Lizi, let's talk about the hundred-year plan, this time Bao can still be free. β
Speaking of digressions, a few people almost couldn't get around, Li Guolou pondered for a while, and said: "Lord Bao, the current ticket number is only used by the rich to do business, and I can't look down on the people's business of a few taels of silver, but as long as we fully bloom and set the ticket number in the town, and store the people's family wealth in the ticket number, the small amount will become a lot of prosperous business, and it will be an inexhaustible gold mountain." We have the money to do big business, and we can plug in any industry that makes money. It's just that I'm afraid that some people will be red and say bad things about our ticket number, and then the people who believe the rumors will come to squeeze the money and make us bankrupt overnight. Therefore, fame and foil are indispensable, and it is not enough to have money, and it is not easy for Shanxi Yankees to pass this level. β
Wu Defu said: "Those ticket numbers, places, and palaces have backstage, and I can't think of a way to deal with them for a while. β
Bao said slowly: "Yes! Now the four ticket numbers of our Qing Empire are all generations, and they have enjoyed happiness for a lifetime, and I have never heard of a loser. β
Li Guolou said: "Mr. Bao, that's because the ticket number is not the business of the owner alone, they are the shopkeeper system, it is a layer-by-layer responsibility system, they only use fellow villagers, so the region is very strong, no one dominates the country, and the ticket numbers of the money banks are small-scale." We can't do this, we must have an open vision, tolerance is great, we must learn from foreign devils, open a money bank like a foreigner, it is called a bank, and I have a name in mind, so it is called please come to the bank. Please be different from the same word as Qingyin, and the name is good, the people will know that we welcome them as soon as they hear it, how good it is, and borrow the light of the Qing Empire, so that the approval can be passed. Two adults, do you think this name is good? β
The two chiefs muttered, "Please come in the bankΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" With a smile in his eyes, he imagined the opening scene of "Please Come to the Bank".
Bao Yi patted his thigh and said: "I have already seen it, Xiao Lizi is good at planning, planning and then acting, what he thinks of is reliable, it is good to drink foreign ink, and it is not okay to be unconvinced." It's a pity that my rabbit cub only likes to sing, and he sings a little bit of tune, and nothing else can be accomplished. Little plum, you take him with you later. β
Bao took the first step out of the chess piece and pushed his son Bao Quanzhong, who was not yet seventeen years old, to the forefront. He took a fancy to the business of Jingshi, and did not want to return to his hometown to be a landlord in the future, so he wanted to retire in Tianjin like the prince, and live a life of people in the city, and Bao Tong had no attachment to his hometown.
Li Guolou couldn't help but didn't ask Bao Tong's son Bao Quanzhong what he likes to sing? If Bao Quanzhong likes to sing Hua Dan, wouldn't he have a little husband behind his buttocks? Li Guolou had all the flavors in his heart, and swept towards Wu Defu, and the smart Master Wu was immersed in fantasy. Li Guolou silently muttered that silence is golden, Wu Defu was not a good person originally, life and death have their own destiny, he is not an almighty God. It is not what he did to save people's lives, he was to avenge the dead, and the more people who died, the better it was for him.
After the planning was done, Bao stood up together and said, "Lao Wu is waiting to scold his mother, let's eat together." β
Li Guolou asked stupidly: "Lord Bao, shall we go back at night?" β
Bao replied together: "Detective, you can count it, if you go to the foreign girl's house, you will automatically appear tomorrow morning, you want to come together, you have to go together." Got it? β
Wu Defu said: "Xiao Lizi took out the hidden chips, and Master Bao has no chips." β
Li Guolou turned his head and pointed at Wu Defu's nose, and said with annoyance: "I knew this earlier, I would have found a chance to slip away in the morning, it turned out that you all calculated the four hundred taels of silver I won." β
Bao sighed together: "Xiao Lizi, I have to pay the public account when I go back, my wife is not even, can the family be peaceful?" Later, when you get married, you will understand. β
Wu Defu said: "Yes, Xiao Lizi is now a golden gun, if you can't do it in the future, your wife will like money, and she will seduce you when she sees money, so that you can enjoy it, and if you don't have money, you will kick you out of bed." β
Bao glanced at Li Guolou together and said, "If you don't go to gamble again, you will be proud of the love casino anyway." β
Li Guolou shook his head and said: "Forget it, I met the British minister yesterday, and I don't have such good luck today, the foreign girl is already going to eat me, if I don't feed her again, I'm going to cuckold me in the afternoon." β
What does Li Guolou want to do? Bao Tongtong knew how smart he guessed, and Bao Tongtong said angrily: "Xiao Lizi, you are too few friends, eat first and then find us foreign girls, and finally you enter the shed, you can't come the other way around." β
The two chiefs dragged Li Guolou and didn't give him a chance to act alone, for fear that Li Guolou would really run to Yelia's house.
