Chapter 938: Pulling people into the water
After drinking and chatting all night, Chen Mingxiang and Wang Zhen both felt tired, so they went back to their rooms to rest, and didn't get up until noon to eat lunch, the side effects were also obvious, Chen Mingxiang didn't plan to go to work at all, anyway, he had too many part-time jobs, and no one could care if he slept at home.
The sun was not bad at noon, Chen Mingxiang set up tables and chairs under the trees in the yard, and then Wang Zhen boiled water to make a pot of tea, and the two enjoyed a rare two-person world. One reads a book and the other reads a newspaper, as well as the best Longjing tea in front of the Ming Dynasty, there are few times when it is so comfortable.
Wang Zhen hopes to live this kind of life the most, she has arranged for the maid to buy vegetables on the street, and plans to cook dumplings and make two side dishes by herself at night, but at this time, representatives of the Shanghai Chinese Textile Association and the Yarn Mill Industry Federation came to the door.
At the same time, Zhao Zunyue, secretary general of the municipal government, and Ling Xianwen, director of the social bureau, also came, what is called collusion between officials and businessmen, this is an obvious example, with the support of such senior government officials, it is no wonder that the requirements of the Chamber of Commerce and Commerce cannot be implemented.
"Secretary General Zhao, today's sunshine is not bad, you sit here and talk, I'll change a pot of tea for everyone." Wang Zhen said with a smile.
This set of tea sets is an antique tea set that Chen Mingxiang and she love, treasures from Ru kiln, and they can only use it themselves, and it is a waste to drink tea for these Japanese pseudo-traitors.
She knew that the purpose of these people was nothing more than for the business of the Chamber of Commerce, and this time, she also brought a few boxes, probably to deal with Chen Mingxiang.
"You're so kind, thank you!" Zhao Zunyue didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly stood up and thanked him.
Don't look at him as the secretary general of the municipal government, he is much deeper than Chen Mingxiang in terms of qualifications, but when it comes to his identity and status in Shanghai, he is still far behind!
"My brother is really lazy, everyone is anxious for the cotton registration work of the Chamber of Commerce, but you are here to drink tea with your wife, which really makes us envious!" Ling Xianwen said with a smile.
"What is there to envy, although I hold many positions, they are all idle, and it is okay to go or not, and I will still turn if I leave. Now the business is not easy to do, I have been forced to close two textile factories, and the imperial army is engaged in inspection and blockade of the river, what if I don't drink tea at home? Chen Mingxiang threw a circle of cigarettes at the audience.
Ling Xianwen is the director of the Social Bureau, and the deputy dares to say that he is an idle person in front of the main position, and it is okay to go or not, this is not an ordinary confidence, but no one will think that he is arrogant.
Chen Mingxiang just likes to make money, if he thinks about it, no matter which bureau is the director, even if it is the director of the city police or the director of the social bureau, including the director of the financial bureau, there is no problem in wanting to be which.
Everyone also knows that Chen Mingxiang is not telling a lie, and it is rare to go to the office of the Social Affairs Bureau once a month, and it is the secretary who sends the documents to him for signature, and it is not certain whether he reads them or not.
For example, it is normal for the Foreign Affairs Office, the Security Command, the Public Concession Ministry of Industry and Bureau and other institutions to not see anyone in January, and of course, no one dares to pursue him if he does not go.
Wang Zhen brought a pot of hot tea, and this time it was replaced by a high-quality white porcelain tea set, Chen Mingxiang used a purple sand cup, and the bodyguard brought a few snacks and fruits.
"It's not easy to have such leisure, this should be the best Longjing tea before the Ming Dynasty, right? The cigars are also imported, and the fruits are from the South Seas, so I am willing to live such a day! Zhao Zunyue took a sip of the teacup and tasted it immediately, as the secretary general, it is normal for him to be able to drink well or badly.
"This time, Mr. Han Gongbei of Huasheng Cotton Textile Firm took the initiative to take responsibility, and Liu Baozhang of Futong Bank also participated in the hoarding of cotton yarn. Ling Xianwen said.
"The weight is a little light, anyway, it's fooling the Japanese, I don't have an opinion, but the ugly words are in front, this matter is definitely not over, if you don't check the cotton cloth and cotton yarn in Shanghai, the Japanese will not stop, it would be good to be able to maintain it for a month, this is a good thing for you, and this price is enough." Chen Mingxiang said.
Everyone here heard that Chen Mingxiang had something to say, but they didn't understand what it meant, what kind of good thing could it be in such a short time? If it's just a month, why lose allies from two industries?
"Brother, just say it, what kind of good thing is this?" Ling Xianwen asked.
"Do you need me to say this? It's not that you don't know my identity, the supervisor and deputy secretary general of the Council of Commerce, if the topic is extended to the Japanese and known, what is my nature? Chen Mingxiang's face looked like "hating iron does not become steel".
"Brother Mingxiang, the brains of our group of people don't know how to turn, this kind of thing, you really have to mention it, don't worry, I dare to guarantee that your words will not be spread, there are four people present, the range is very small, not to mention your brother's awesomeness, everyone knows it, even from their own interests, they will not confide half a word." Zhao Zunyue said.
Chen Mingxiang is still a businessman at heart, and he has always followed the concept of making money with harmony in doing things, as long as he does not take the initiative to provoke him, he will never find trouble easily, which is clear in the Shanghai market.
But in fact, no one doesn't understand his strength, not to mention anything else, just two things, one is that Zhang Xiaolin is dead, Chen Mingxiang dared to send money and things to the killer's house in broad daylight, and the other is that the Japanese Mei organ kidnapped his wife, so he used the gendarmerie and the Marine Corps to block the public concession and search the whole world.
If you offend Chen Mingxiang, it's good that you can't get along in Shanghai and Central China, and if you provoke him, you may not even be able to save your life.
"First of all, hand over the people, the order issued by the Ministry of Industry to prohibit the movement of cotton cloth and cotton yarn will be canceled, the gendarmerie and the police station will no longer pay attention to you, and the hidden cotton cloth and cotton yarn can be moved to a safe place, even if it is searched, it will not be possible to find where the materials are."
"Secondly, in the end, the cotton cloth in your hands is to be sold, you can take the opportunity to sell a batch, it is estimated that the cotton ration will be implemented soon, and the sale is late, so it can only be bought at a low price."
"Again, wait until the funds are returned, transfer some machines and spindles to the countryside or outside the blockade line to start work, turn large yarn mills into small yarn mills, and don't sell them in Shanghai."
"Also, the Commerce and Coordination Council is a leaky sieve, there are loopholes everywhere, think of a way, 100 pieces are reported to 30, I don't bother to say it, there are many ways to use your brains, but this has a premise that time is very important, and this move must be taken." Chen Mingxiang said.
This is a good opportunity to purchase cotton cloth and cotton yarn for the bureau headquarters, and the reason why he said this is for fishing, and the Military Control Bureau uses special coupons to secretly purchase materials in Shanghai, and it is estimated that there is no big gain, and he hoards the next batch himself, maybe when he will be able to save the emergency, and he is definitely a big expert in material smuggling.
