Chapter 113: Zhejiang Strategy (4)
Hu Wenkai frowned, habitually finding a cigarette and holding it. Mei Xiang saw this scene and knew that she had hit Hu Wenkai's secret.
"Wen Kai, don't worry, this is just my guess."
"You guessed?"
"Well, now China is the only one with you, there are many planes, as well as truck factories and steel plants, and the most conspicuous signs of this force are planes and tanks, plus my knowledge of you, it is not difficult to come to this conclusion."
"If you can deduce, it means that others will deduce too."
"Wen Kai, you filtered, Jiangsu now gives others the feeling that the industry is starting to improve, but people who don't pay attention to force and don't understand it are difficult to imagine that this is your army."
"Then you are asking this question on behalf of the Japanese government?"
"No, who isn't happy that their man is strong? Today, I would like to ask about the retention of Japan's interests in Tohoku after the Great War. The family has interests in the Northeast, so I had to ask. ”
"You can rest assured of this, at least for three years, Japan's interests in the Northeast will not be touched for the time being, but if your family has an industry in Shandong, it is recommended that it be best to get rid of it immediately."
"Wen Kai, are you going to start Shandong?"
"Meixiang, you are becoming more and more unruly, you have to call Wen Kaijun."
"Uncle Hu, don't change the subject."
"Mmmm, I'm thinking about it, but I'm still waiting."
"Wen Kaijun, I know that you are waiting for the results of the Zhifeng War after obtaining Zhejiang, and then have a plan."
"Is Mika's question finished?"
"Well, you wait for me, I'll wash the pots and dishes and boil the bath water, you go to bed and lie down for a while."
After serving him in the bath, Mika changed her ladylike dignity and took the initiative to hold his brother, a boundless warm current, and there was a force to squeeze and twist him in all directions, and a terrible pleasure attacked him, and rapidly expanded, conquering his entire central nervous system with lightning speed. Looking at Mei Xiang who got up and got dressed on the side of the bed, Hu Wenkai supported the pillow and prepared to get up to see her off, but Mei Xiang held her down and said that she would go back by herself and let Hu Wenkai rest early.
Wang Ma Liu Ma opened the door early in the morning and knew that the young master was back, Wang Ma hurriedly went to buy breakfast, and Liu Ma began to tidy up the living room. In the morning, Hu Wenkai was woken up by the crisp sound of selling in the alley, looked up at the clock hand next to the bed at 8:20, and turned over and got up on the bed with a sour body.
The bed here is softer than the big one in Star Town, and the room has plenty of light, so I like to sleep in this room alone. After playing on the balcony for a while, the rings went downstairs to wash, drank soy milk and chewed the fritters and instructed Wang Ma: "Wang Ma is going to prepare more food today, and it is estimated that those people will come back for dinner at noon." ”
"Young Master Hu, I know that I have already bought a lot of dishes, roasted fish, stewed duck soup, and your favorite braised pork, roasted chicken." Wang Ma stood aside and reported the name of the dish.
Wang Ma and Liu Ma have been working here for two years, and they can't say that they take care of Hu Wenkai, just like their own son. Their money is often placed directly on the table at home, and they are never less than once, on the contrary, they can often pick up the lost change from the sofa and corner and put it on the coffee table.
"Mother Liu, please change the sheets and quilt in the bedroom."
"Okay, I'll go get a new one right now."
Stepping on the steps of the company's office building, a greeting sounded: Boss morning.
"Early, you early." He kept coping.
The office window has long been opened, the spider plant in the corner of the wall is swaying with the wind, a plate of sandalwood is lit on the office coffee table, and a cup of brewed tea is steaming on the desk. The floor was spotless, reflecting his shadow. is still the same as before, everything is according to Hu Wenkai's habits.
Picked up the phone and gave instructions to Wang Xihai: "Xihai, you ask Jiang Qiuming and Lao Yi to come to my office in the morning, let Schroeder come over now, and the conference room will be cleaned and put on fruits, cigarettes and flowers, and Dewey and Adele will come over later." ”
Unscrewed the fountain pen and wrote on the official paper: Order all Cangzhou planes to return to Longwangmiao Airport to be on standby, and Longwangmiao Airport planes take off to reconnoiter the march route of the Fourth Division and throw propaganda leaflets.
He took out the codebook from his official bag and pushed the telegram room next door with a message, ordered the use of wartime coded communications, and made all telecommunications go to the headquarters of the Shanghai company.
Schroeder sat across his desk with the ledger in his pocket, with the characteristic German caution, unfolded the ledger, took out his glasses from his jacket pocket, and put them on.
"Boss, I'll report to you on the assets of the entire company."
"Lao Shi's account will be said at the June meeting, you will give me an accurate number first, what is the company's current turnover?"
"You wait a few minutes, I'll add it up." Lao Shi took the paper and pen and began to accumulate.
"As of yesterday, the company's book balance of 36.29 million yuan does not include the cash of American companies, European companies, South American companies, and Southeast Asian companies."
"How many do you predict when you add up those companies?"
Lao Shi frowned: "The boss can only roughly estimate that it is between 50 million and 60 million, but boss, your funds do not include counties and cities, as far as I know, Jiang Qiuming has at least three million, Dai Jitao Oil Refinery has at least one million, and Nantong and other places, as well as you and Carrota Laoyi, that Australian Kaita Company also has several million." ”
"Boss, let me remind you, I'm giving you the dollar rate."
Hu Wenkai thought for a while and said: "This money is a number for me, and I can only feel at ease when the number needs to be turned into a physical object." Lao Shi, you carefully give me cash in gold step by step, I estimate that the company's profit will accelerate in the second half of the year. ”
"Boss, I remember, you still have gold reserves in the Dragon King Temple, it should be no less than five million, and it takes a long-term process to absorb gold, otherwise it will cause fluctuations in the price of gold."
"As long as it's an asset, your Lao Shi will always remember that my little gold has not escaped your field of vision, and I will go to No. 3, Lane 188 to have dinner together at noon." Hu Wenkai's words meant that Lao Shi could go, Lao Shi stood up, picked up the account book, smiled and nodded and left.
The office was quiet, and he pondered that the Fourth Division's deployment caught him a little off guard, originally the Fourth Division was stationed at the junction of Zhejiang and Fujian, far away from Shanghai and Jiangsu, plus it was Lu Yongxiang's henchman, and the elite troops had almost no insight and rebellion.
It was calculated that it would take at least 10 days for the Fourth Division to move from Fujian to Huzhou, and there were no trains or waterways during this journey, and they all relied on walking on their legs. Knocking on the office desktop, the key is that Lu Yongxiang only needs to arrest Lu Yongxiang first, what is the lack of service objects in the fourth division and the tenth division, and it is not for me to slaughter.
Dewey and Adele arrived at the 10 o'clock hand, and Hu Wenkai first congratulated Dewey on his promotion to consul and Wilton to ambassador. The difference between each country is only in form, and the money will naturally get the attention of the boss, Wilton's ascension is the result of a lot of money and public relations, and Dewey is hitching a ride on Wilton.
"Wen Kai, I came to think clearly this time that the Zhifeng battlefield did not enter the northeast as you said, in this case, the verbal agreement reached between our three countries and you cannot be implemented." As soon as Dewey came up, he represented France, Britain, and the United States.
"Consul Dewey, I'm just a matchmaker, as far as I know, it's the ambassadors of your three countries and Cao Kun and Wu Peifu who make the decision."
"Wen Kai shirked at a critical time, if you hadn't come forward, how would we have reached a verbal agreement with Cao Kun."
Hu Wenkai laughed, this Dewey was purely looking for a topic, and the diplomats put the key questions at the end.
"Consul Dewey, as far as I know, you have been in contact all the time, but I just made it clear between you, but don't worry, you can't explain that you can't go to the other two countries, the war is still going on, I think it will be over in at least three months, so it's too early to talk about this."
"This is also the same, but how do I feel that you have thoughts about Zhejiang?" Dewey asked casually to Adele next to him, but he laughed.
"Mr. Dewey, your question has seriously interfered in China's internal affairs, and it doesn't hurt if you ask it personally as a friend, and if you ask on behalf of the French government, I will think it is *naked and coarse*."
Adele knew that Hu Wenkai was a little hairy, so she hurriedly interjected: "Wenkai, you misunderstood Dewey, our interests are tied together, Dewey is afraid that you will suffer at the hands of Lu Yongxiang, if you get Zhejiang, it will be too late for him to be happy." ”
Dewey's face was a little unsightly, but he still nodded along with Adele's words, agreeing with Adele's meaning.
Hu Wenkai just took the opportunity to knock on it to save these gringos from treating him like a master, but he still paid attention to proportion, and then borrowed the slope to get off the donkey.
"As a friend, I want to say that this Lu Yongxiang is not a thing, he actually assassinated my teacher Liang Qichao, at least give him a lesson, otherwise he really doesn't know who he is."
"What kind of lesson does Wen Kai have?" Dewey still couldn't help but ask.
"Hit him a little bit to make him feel more painful, and his memory is not something that anyone can touch."
"That's all?"
"Consul Dewey, do you really want me to take Zhejiang by force?"
Adele knew that Hu Wenkai would be a scoundrel as soon as he encountered a critical problem.
"Wen Kai: Mr. Dewey came here today to inform you that if you seize Zhejiang, your navy can annex the Anhui navy in Ningbo Port under the banner of the French fleet."
Hu Wenkai was stunned, this is simply a gift of ingots, the Anhui Navy has four warships of 600 to 2,000 tons and more than a dozen gunboats, the key is that there are hundreds of sailors.
"Dewey, you wouldn't say anything strings attached, would you?"
