Chapter 21 The Beginning of Industrial Real Estate (2)

"China's human resources are about one-fiftieth of that of the United States, and the resources belong to the stage of gratuitous claims, and we have a little bit of funds. Now is to find a good entry point to export industrial products to Europe and the United States on a large scale. But rest assured, in five years, the company's focus is still on real estate, and now the company's main business is to hoard land and sell real estate. In the past few years, the factory has been saving technical talents, equipment commissioning and manufacturing, and it will not take up much money. ”

"Boss, I'll do whatever I say, and I don't have the ability to think about these big aspects." Ivanov turned out his irresponsible old words to resist.

Schroeder interjected: "Boss, I think it is necessary to manage the processing plant, the furniture sales company and the company's finances separately, so that the monthly report can clearly see the deficiencies." ”

"Lao Shi, this is up to you, you are responsible, Ivanov, you have to get in touch with the marshal as soon as possible, the Far East estimates that in two or three years, the remnants of Kolchak will fail. Hurry up and be able to buy the raw materials over there at a low price, and it is best to collect as much as you want, anyway, this company has marshal shares. ”

"Boss, isn't it a backlog of funds that we can't use for the time being?"

"Can't we sell this head to those who need it at a higher price? After the real estate company opens normally, we will do our best to renovate the furniture sales company, and last time I said that we will transform it into an international trading company. Remember that guns, bullets, and * can be asked for in the Far East, but heavy weapons are not wanted, and this warlord in the country does not have to worry about having no buyers. ”

"Okay boss, I'll send a telegram to the marshal in the afternoon."

"Dear Hu, my task is to sit in HSBC to help the company get as many low-interest short-term loans as possible, to borrow Ivanov's words, 'I will do whatever you say', I have to say that I admire the thinking in your head." James slowly took out his handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.

"James, you have a position, and we will understand your difficulties. But your next task is not light, you need to pay attention to the difficult enterprises and merchants to submit a list every month, individuals to your bank loan is rejected can be introduced to our company let him land deed mortgage. In addition, our company can also intervene in the mortgage that cannot be repaid when the land deed mortgage is about to expire, and introduce Ivanov to the specific business personnel of the banks, so that they can secretly dispose of the land deed mortgage that cannot be repaid when it expires. ”

"Why didn't you bring this up earlier, boss, it's a gold mine here," Schroeder said, taking a breath.

"I'm so busy, I usually think about it, but today we talked together and I had a flash of inspiration. Hehe, "Hu Wenkai also regretted it, how did he guard a gold mine and forget to dig it."

"The greedy nature of the capitalists is revealed, and they still boast that they are busy and don't get up at eight o'clock in the morning." After finishing speaking, Carrotta realized that she had said the wrong thing, covering her mouth with her left hand, and the chopsticks in her right hand stopped there. The three of them stared at Hu Wenkai with malicious eyes.

"Why are you old men messing up all day long, the little girl in the morning didn't sleep last night in order to covet small profits, and came to eat capitalist breakfast in the morning, and said that if you want to eat, you can eat three meals a day on Sunday." Hu Wenkai ignored the gazes of the three of them and ate by himself. Haha, the three old men burst out laughing.

"You promised to invite me to Sunday dinner, Ivanov, you can testify that you deserve your hard-earned gains." Carrota pulled down her cheeks and simply ignored it.

"Boss, this is what you promised, and I testified on behalf of Carrotta that was promised by the boss."

"Hu Wenkai, no matter how stingy you are, I will call and ask Liu's mother every day before getting off work in the future, and I will come over to eat you if I have vegetables." Carrotta said viciously. After eating, the three old men flashed directly and left Hu Wenkai and Carrota.

"You're not going back?"

"What are you going back for? I don't have anything to do when I go back, just read a book and take a shower at night. ”

"Whatever you want, you can stay as long as you want. Next time, don't say I'm stingy. ”

"You're just a stingy man and a girl." After saying that, I went upstairs to the study to read.

Hu Wenkai read newspapers and novels for a while, and was a little sleepy at noon, so he went upstairs and wanted to sleep for a while.

On the floor of the study, Carrota fell asleep with a book on her lap against the wall, Hu Wenkai couldn't cry or laugh, pulled her up to the bed to sleep, she climbed up to the side of the bed like her own bed, hugged the pillow and fell asleep again. Help her cover the blanket and bring it to the door, and she has to go to the sofa to solve the nap.

When I woke up, I sat on the sofa in a daze and got up, there was no movement upstairs, and the whole room was very quiet. Find sandalwood and light it in the incense burner on the flower stand, and the faint scent of sandalwood comes out. After washing, make a cup of tea in the living room and continue to be in a daze, now the company's framework is basically in shape, as long as you don't make mistakes of principle, it is difficult to succeed.

The phone that rings and rings suddenly, I walked to the bar table and sat down to pick up the phone and said, "Hello, this is No. 3 in Lane 181, who are you looking for?" ”

"Is it Mr. Hu Wenkai's house? My name is Zhang Jingjiang, looking for Mr. Hu Wenkai."

A middle-aged man's voice with a very light Huzhou accent came from the other end of the phone, what is the matter with Zhang Jingjiang looking for me?

"Mr. Zhang, I'm Hu Wenkai"

"I don't know if Mr. Hu is free in the afternoon, I don't know if it's convenient to visit your mansion."

"How can Mr. Zhang let you come, you name a place and I'll visit you"

"Oh, I'm here at No. 3, Lane 181, Taicang Road, so I'll make tea and wait for Mr. Zhang at home."

Carrotta went downstairs to ask for someone's phone number, telling her that a veteran of a Chinese party would come over in a moment. Carrotta asks if she wants to avoid it, and he says that there is nothing secret about a normal visit, and that it is okay to sit and listen together but not to talk.

Carrotta ran to the bathroom to wash up, and after a while, a fresh and cute girl appeared in the living room and helped him tidy up the living room.

Zhang Jingjiang, dressed in a gray silk waistcoat, walked into the living room with his signature round glasses and Chiang Kai-shek, who was wearing a white shirt and black trousers.

Hu Wenkai stepped forward to hold Zhang Jingjiang and Chiang Kai-shek's hands first: "Wenkai, I didn't expect Mr. Zhang and Mr. Jiang to come to the cold house, it's a great honor."

Zhang Jingjiang's thin body was surrounded by the sofa, leaning on the back of the sofa. Chiang Kai-shek sat in a soldier's posture, with his waist straight, his hands on his knees.

Carrotta was busy making tea for the two of them, speaking fluent Shanghainese, asking them if they wanted Longjing or coffee, and both of them wanted Longjing. Zhang Jingjiang looked at Carrotta suspiciously, and Hu Wenkai explained that this was his sister.

He took out a cigar and smoked one by one, and began to chat with the politicians of this era, starting with the peace talks between the north and the south, Hu Wenkai exuded great patriotic enthusiasm, listened to Zhang Jingjiang's views, and raised his doubts from time to time. Zhang Jingjiang smiled at Hu Wenkai's sensitive questions and did not give positive answers, such as the low tide of the Kuomintang and why the warlords of the puppet Kuomintang in various places were not completely expelled. Hu Wenkai pretended to be stupid and naΓ―ve to ask some questions.

Chiang Kai-shek just drank tea and smoked with a blank expression, and finally Zhang Jingjiang asked Hu Wenkai: "What do you think of the Chinese Kuomintang?"

Hu Wenkai tightened his body and sat up straight and said, "Mr. Zhang, can you help Wenkai solve his doubts once before I answer this question?" ”

"Wen Kai, if you have any doubts, just say it, I will be happy to solve your doubts"

"That's right, when Mr. Zhang met Mr. Zhongshan on the passenger ship, what circumstances drove you to join the revolution, I think of two points Mr. Zhang must choose one of the two, one is that the political philosophy of the Kuomintang deeply moved Mr. Zhang, so that you have a lofty ambition to drive out the Tartars and restore the Han people, and the other is that Mr. Zhongshan's personal charm has influenced you, but I don't think that you will be impressed by Mr. Zhongshan's charm in a short passenger liner encounter. That is, Mr. Zhang thinks that it is a matter of time before the Qing dynasty is overthrown, and as a Han Chinese, you are unwilling to bet on Mr. Zhongshan under the rule of the Manchus. After Hu Wenkai finished speaking, Chiang Kai-shek's face turned pale and he looked like he was about to leave.

However, Zhang Jingjiang looked at Hu Wenkai with a smile and said: "I didn't misunderstand your Wenkai, both have the former accounting for a small part of the latter, are you satisfied with my answer?" Dude"

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Zhang Jingjiang incredulously, as if he knew Zhang Jingjiang for the first time.

"Mr. Zhang, I want to bet only on Brother Kai-shek in front of me, I know your intentions, and my manager Ivanov will contact you, and I will start with no more than 50,000 taels of silver tickets like Mr. In the future, Ivanov will take the initiative to find Brother Kai-shek. Hu Wenkai said lightly.

Zhang Jingjiang stood up, held Hu Wenkai's hand, shook it tightly without saying anything, and said to Chiang Kai-shek: "Kai-shek, don't hurry up and thank Mr. Hu!" ”

Chiang Kai-shek still didn't come back to his senses, looked at Hu Wenkai in confusion, and said mechanically: "Kai-shek, thank you, Mr. Hu." Zhang Jingjiang slapped his palm on Chiang Kai-shek's shoulder and sighed.

Hu Wenkai asked Carrotta to take out a few boxes of cigars and give them to them, and when they were sent to the alley, he remembered one thing and said to Zhang Jingjiang: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhongshan is in Shanghai during this time, and I want to ask him to ask for a calligraphy treasure for our company." Our company will spend another 20,000 taels on the pen fee. ”

"Well, there's nothing wrong with Wen Kai"

"When the time comes, I'll let Ivanov contact you"

"Okay, you can stay Wen Kai, it's worth the trip today." Zhang Jingjiang held Hu Wenkai's hand and said.

On the way back, Chiang Kai-shek asked Zhang Jingjiang puzzled: "This Hu Wenkai is too rude, just a businessman who thinks he is what he actually doubts about your revolutionary motives." ”

"Kai-shek, you are lucky today, Hu Wenkai is a person you and I can't understand, but today he has said that he will support you in the future, Kai-shek Everyone has a motive for revolution. He did not question the motives of my revolution, but tactfully told us that he was also a member of the revolution, and how to join the revolution, he would only choose to support you as his way. ”

"Why are you optimistic about me? I don't have anything."

"I don't know about this, you have to get along with Hu Wenkai well," Zhang Jingjiang commanded.
