Chapter 1198: Heavy Bribery

As soon as Wan Mulin and Si Guangyuan arrived in Shanghai, they each contacted their targets according to the division of labor that had been discussed in advance.

Wan Mulin went to connect with Chen Hongchi, and Si Guangyuan carried a heavy gift and went to meet Su Yue, who had already served as the mayor of Shanghai, explained the cause and effect clearly, and asked to see Fujiwara Tomohito.

Before, because of the rescue of Wan Mulin, the two of them got along well, of course, mainly because Si Guangyuan was generous enough, which made Su Yue very satisfied, so he quickly made arrangements for Si Guangyuan.

When Su Yue asked Ning Zhiheng for instructions, Ning Zhiheng naturally pushed the boat along the river and happily agreed.

Si Guangyuan was overjoyed when he heard the news, and he didn't want to delay for a moment, so he followed Su Yue to visit him the next day, and as soon as they met, he would present the prepared gifts diligently.

"Sir, thanks to your care before, Brother Mu Lin was able to get out safely, Brother Yue Sheng has always kept this in mind, this time I came to Shanghai, specially prepared some gifts, and I hope you will smile!"

After speaking, he presented the three gifts one by one and placed them neatly on the table.

Ning Zhiheng stepped forward to appreciate it carefully, one is a hollow jade pendant of the Han Dynasty, the knife work is strong and natural, delicate, and in good condition, just look at it for a moment, Ning Zhiheng is sure that it is genuine.

The other two are calligraphy, they are all Huang Tingjian's works, one work is the line of calligraphy "Lu Gong Ti", the other is cursive "Zhu Shang Zhu Zhu Ti", but it is not Ning Zhiheng's favorite regular script, although Huang Tingjian's regular script attainments are also very high, relatively speaking, his line of calligraphy and cursive are even more outstanding.

Yue Sheng knew through Si Guangyuan's previous narration that Fujiwara Tomohito liked Chinese calligraphy works the most, so he tried his best to collect them, but the time was too tight, and only these two characters were found, and the remaining Han Dynasty hollow jade pendant Although it is also a treasure, it is actually a foil, which is used to make up the numbers.

Ning Zhiheng took the "Lu Gong Post", watched it for a moment, nodded and said: "This is Huang Tingjian's early works, its skimming and opening, and the flat and broad glyphs are all the characteristics of his early imitation of Su's font, although the artistic achievements are not as good as his later works, but they are also rare masterpieces." ”

After that, I took the draft book "Zhu Zhu Zhu" again, and after watching it, I exclaimed: "Gather and scatter, sway freely, use the pen calmly and elegantly, vertical and horizontal, it is really a boutique, alas! It's just that half of it is missing, and the collection is incomplete, what a pity...! ”

After speaking, I couldn't help but shake my head again and again, such a calligraphy masterpiece, for Ning Zhiheng, is far more valuable than a box of gold bars, such a good work, a part of it is missing, which makes Ning Zhiheng deeply regretful!

Seeing Ning Zhiheng's behavior, Si Guangyuan knew that this was the right gift, and said with a smile: "It's really a pity, it's just that this calligraphy work is an unusual antique, and there are too few of them in the world now, we will pay more attention in the future, please forgive me!" ”

Ning Zhiheng laughed, waved his hand to Si Guangyuan and said, "Si Jun, it's so polite, I am already very satisfied with such a harvest, thank you Mr. Yue for your kindness." ”

Motioning for Si Guangyuan and Su Yue to sit down, he smiled and said, "Let's get straight to the point, Su Jun said, you are here this time because of the conflict between Li Zhiqun and Chongqing agents?" ”

Si Guangyuan saw that Ning Zhiheng took the initiative to mention the topic, and quickly nodded and said: "That's true, sir, in the past few months, you know the chaos in Shanghai, in order to implement the matter of the Chinese Currency Reserve, Li Zhiqun and Chongqing agents have suffered heavy casualties, and now the situation is getting more and more serious, the financial order is chaotic, everyone in the money industry is in danger, many banks are forced to stop business, and even the business community has an unfavorable turnover, the market is turbulent and depressed, and the losses in all aspects are too great. Therefore, Brother Yue Sheng would like to ask Mr. to come forward and say a word to restrain all parties, especially Li Zhiqun, to cease fire and strike the war, and please ask Mr. to agree! ”

When Ning Zhiheng heard this, he looked at Si Guangyuan with some meaning, and after a while, he said lightly: "Mr. Yue is far away in Hong Kong, and he still cares about the trivial matters in Shanghai, if you really have a heart, why don't you come back, China and Japan are friendly, East Asia is prosperous, are they all family!" ”

The meaning of Ning Zhiheng's words was inexplicable, Si Guangyuan couldn't help but smile embarrassedly, how dare Yue Sheng come back, wouldn't he have thrown himself into the net.

He said with a smile: "Brother Yue Sheng's health has been poor in the past few years, he has a lot of asthma, and he will be treated in a simple way, and when his body recovers, he will definitely come back to Shanghai and thank Mr. Xie in person." ”

Speaking of this, he quickly changed the conversation, and then returned to the topic: "In fact, this is also a proposal from Chongqing, they are willing to make peace, and promise to stop all retaliatory actions, everyone takes a step back, and now they are waiting for Li Zhiqun's attitude, but this is not all a matter of your words!" ”

Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly, and said with a leisurely expression: "I think the Chongqing government can't support it, now the four major banks in Chongqing have stopped operating, and they can't even open their stores, and the losses are far above the Nanjing Central Savings Bank. ”

Such a posture of pushing and prevarication is obviously a direct benefit!

Si Guangyuan hurriedly said: "Mr. Mingjian, of course the conditions in Chongqing are more than these, isn't the cause of this conflict because of the Nanjing government's implementation of the Chinese Currency Reserve?" Now the Chongqing government has promised that their four major banks can accept and exchange a certain amount of the central reserve currency with restrictions, and that they will recognize the implementation of the central reserve currency, and that future cooperation can also be discussed, so as to restore Shanghai's normal financial order as soon as possible. ”

"That's all?" Ning Zhiheng seemed to ask casually.

"Of course it's not all!" Si Guangyuan hurriedly said, leaning forward slightly, and his voice was lower, "As a reward for Mr.'s kindness, Brother Yue Sheng plans to transfer all the immovable properties left in the concession to Mr. ”

"Oh!" Ning Zhiheng's eyes were fixed, his body was upright, and he was obviously interested.

Su Yue, who had not spoken on the side, hurriedly said: "Sir, now there is an inch of land in the concession, and real estate is the most sought-after, and this batch of properties is not a small amount!" ”

Of course, Ning Zhiheng knew Yue Sheng's family background, at the beginning, Yue Sheng put all the real estate in the public concession and the French concession in front of Ning Zhiheng, and let him choose, and finally in order to keep a low profile, Ning Zhiheng chose a part of the unknown hidden industry, and now when he heard that Yue Sheng was willing to invest such a large capital, he couldn't help but be moved.

Although it is said that in a short period of time, that is, this year, the Japanese will occupy the concession and lift the "island" situation of the Shanghai concession, and it will be difficult to preserve these industries of Yue Sheng, but now they are willing to make this capital, which is enough to explain Yue Sheng's attitude.

Ning Zhiheng nodded slowly, and said to Si Guangyuan: "Very good, I have seen Mr. Yue's sincerity, okay, as long as you can meet these conditions, I can restrain Li Zhiqun, stop fighting, and no longer attack!" ”

As soon as Ning Zhiheng's words came out, Si Guangyuan was immediately overjoyed, this matter was finally done, with the promise of this President Fujiwara, Li Zhiqun would never dare not agree.

"Great! Thank you, sir, but there is one more thing, Li Zhiqun arrested nearly 200 employees of the Central Bank, and now he is locked up in the 76th prison, I heard that the conditions are very poor, many people are sick, can you release them as soon as possible, otherwise I am afraid that there will be deaths. ”

Ning Zhiheng frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "I can let Li Zhiqun release people, but you have to ensure that the Chongqing government cannot break its promise, after the four major banks start business, they will first start accepting the China Reserve Bank and set an example for other banks, and at the same time, they can no longer attack the industry of the China Reserve Bank and Fujiwara Club, otherwise don't talk about Li Zhiqun, even I will not agree." ”

"Of course, of course, if things go back and forth, we will bear all the consequences, and at that time, you can dispose of it!" Si Guangyuan patted his chest and agreed.

"In this way, my side will hand over the property immediately, you will send someone to receive it, and you can complete the formalities soon, and please note Li Zhiqun as soon as possible, I heard that he has just launched another violent attack, and Chongqing is exercising restraint, I am afraid that things will be complicated!"

Si Guangyuan can't wait to finish the handover work immediately, he still knows a little about Fujiwara Zhiren, he has always been true to his word in terms of credibility, as long as he receives benefits, things will not repeat.

Ning Zhiheng nodded, in order to reassure Si Guangyuan, he came to the desk, picked up the phone and dialed out.

In the director's office of the No. 76 Secret Service Headquarters, Li Zhiqun was explaining his next move to Wu Shicai: "Now that the central bank has closed its doors, but the offices of the other three major banks in the French Concession are still open, we will next eliminate these offices one by one, starting with the Peasant Bank. ”

Li Zhiqun won at this time, full of confidence, three months of fierce confrontation, he relied on the home advantage, finally had a result, and now he is even more powerful, the next step is to expand the results, completely hit the four major banks, so that the whole Shanghai banks and money companies can take a look, and do the right thing with themselves.

Just when he was full of ambition, the phone rang, Li Zhiqun picked it up casually, and heard a calm voice coming.

"Li Jun, I'm Fujiwara Tomohito!"

Just one sentence made Li Zhiqun's hand shake, and he almost couldn't hold the microphone, but he immediately reacted and hurriedly said, "Mr. Fujiwara, what do you command?" ”

"Come to me right away, I have something to tell you!"

Li Zhiqun was a little stunned when he was standing, Fujiwara Tomohito actually asked him to visit, and said that he had something to explain? What's going on?

But now was not the time for him to delve deeper, he took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and replied, "Okay, the humble post will come soon!" ”
