Chapter Seventy-Five: Convincing Beckonde
Qian Dingzhang took a sip of water and continued, "Pei Dashao is a young talent, living a life of fine clothes and fine food, talking about business during the day, and lingering in fireworks and wine shops at night. Not only do I not know the suffering of the small people, but I am afraid that I don't even know much about the outside world."
"What do you say about Mr. Zhao?" Bei Hongde was a little enlightened by Qian Dingzhang's previous words, although it is still a little vague, but after so many years in the shopping mall, he still has a vision. Now I heard that Qian Dingzhang suddenly changed the topic and criticized his daily luxury life, which looked like he wanted to make a big news, so he was confused.
Qian Dingzhang is also sighing, these national capitalists say that they are not patriotic, they are wronging their generation, in the spirit of industry to save the country, to develop national industry, on the one hand, they have made a lot of money, and objectively increased the industrialization process of the whole country. As for earning money before and after, or building a school or devoting themselves to charity, although there is a mentality of selling fame and reputation during this period, it cannot be denied that they do have the heart to do things for the country. It's a pity that many people's vision is still not enough, or some are content with the false prosperity and stability created by the Shiliyang place. Therefore, Qian Dingzhang planned to say a few more words.
He walked to Pei Dashao's cherry wood carved desk, and saw that the workmanship and materials of this table could not be knocked out thousands of times, and if it was not done well, it might still be a foreign product. Just one other property is already so luxurious, and if the wealth in the hands of these people can be used in the right way, they will have to cause some trouble for the Orientals.
The cigar he had dropped just now had scorched the paint on the tabletop and formed an unsightly black spot. Qian Dingzhang picked up the half-smoked cigar, which seemed to be about to go out, he blew two breaths on the burning end to keep it from going out, and then handed the cigar to Pei Hongde, "Take a sip and take a slow."
After Bei Hongde thanked him, took the cigarette and took two puffs, his spirit seemed to return to his body, "Brother Zhao just said that I don't know the world, what do you mean by daring to ask?" ”
Qian Dingzhang heard him call himself a brother, and knew that what he said just now was not in vain, so he calmed down a little and said, "It is the matter of the recovery of silver dollars by the Chinese government, and the government has uniformly ordered it to be handled by several major banks." If you are free another day, Mr. Pei can ask someone to accompany you to Nanshi, preferably Hongkou. Many small money banks are engaged in the business of privately collecting silver dollars, which is prohibited by government orders, and they do not sell the silver dollars to the government but secretly sell them to Orientals. The Orientals used warships parked on the Huangpu River to bring silver dollars back to China. Guess what they do with all this silver? ”
"Do what?"
"They melted Yuan's big head into silver ingots, which were then rolled into flakes by machine and sold back to China. Originally, Yinlou bought all kinds of sterling silver ingots to make silverware, and one tael of silver cost about four cents a piece, while Japan's purity was only 90 percent silver, and one tael was sold for six a piece. However, because it has been machined in advance, it is much more convenient to make various jewelry with silver pieces than traditional silver ingots, and it can save a lot of labor costs. Therefore, the market is very good. You calculate how much silver we have to flow out of this alone, how much profit we have to make. The Orientals have used warships to transport silver dollars, what kind of heart do you think they have?! ”
"And this kind of thing?" Beihongde looked like he was back to normal at the moment, and he looked incredulous with a cigar in his mouth.
Qian Dingzhang shook his head, walked to the door and opened the door and called his driver in, "Tell your boss about those small money banks in Hongkou, you must know." ”
Sure enough, the driver repeated the words similar to Qian Dingzhang, but the difference was that the data was not so accurate. After saying that, he took the door and went out.
"Besides, one of the things these little money dealers will do before they sell them to the Orientals, and they will hire the worst burlap bag in their hands, and the bag will hold twenty silver dollars at that time, and they will stand there every day and put the bags back and forth, and make the silver dollars in them rattle and rattle every day. Guess what they're doing? ”
"What is this?" Bei Hongde is the eldest young master, and I don't know about these inferior things.
"The friction between the silver dollars and the friction between the silver dollars after repeated reversals will rub off the small silver dust, and after a long time they will burn that pocket, and they will get the silver. Mr. Pei, this is the enemy we are facing, and the compatriots behind us. The enemy is naturally cruel, but the compatriots are also ignorant, and now only by standing up with a man of insight like Mr. can we bring hope to our country. ”
Pei Hongde wrenched the cigar in the ashtray and looked up at Qian Dingzhang, "Brother Zhao, dare to ask Brother Zhao, how to deal with this matter, Bei sincerely asks for advice, don't look forward to resigning!" ”
"Mr. Bei, you really think highly of me, just now, in fact, you can draw conclusions if you think about it carefully. It's just that you were too smooth before, and you ignored the little things in front of you. I'm coming to you today to discuss with you. This is not a trivial matter, and the Orientals we are facing may have the shadow of their government behind them, and I really can't do anything about it alone. ”
After hearing this, Pei Hongde didn't say a word, but walked to the wine cabinet, poured himself a glass of whiskey, dried it in one gulp, and wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, "Okay, it's on with the radish head, Brother Zhao, please later, I will call and gather all the main participants here, and I can't wait to ask Brother Zhao to advise again." ”
"I don't dare to ask for it."
In the period that followed, Mr. Beckon showed the ability of a mature businessman, either by phone or by sending a message, to inform everyone of the news of the meeting in a short time. During this period, he also took the time to write a draft telegram in cipher, and handed it to his subordinates to immediately take it to the post and telecommunications office and send it to Tokyo, obviously checking the news.
There are about a dozen people who participated in the Great Wall stock speculation this time, and they are basically the second-generation children of major capitalists. Pei Hongde did not carry Qian Dingzhang on the phone, and the latter sat on the sofa chair drinking tea and eating snacks to watch him busy. "That's right, Mr. Pei"
"Brother Zhao, you just call me Hongde"
"How does this work?"
"Brother Zhao, why not, I don't know Gui Geng?"
The two of them narrated the chronology, or Zhao Hao was a few years older, Pei Hongde clapped, "Then call each other brothers, Brother Zhao is not a mortal, why care about these false courtesies?" Don't shirk."
"It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, I suddenly remembered something, but it will help to figure out the ins and outs of this turmoil, but it takes a lot of contacts to do it, just a little bit of Baiding, so I have to ask Brother Bei to help?"
"Brother Zhao, this is helping me, please speak."
"I've only been back in Shanghai for more than half a month, and I've been traveling around before. It was during this time that I heard about the Great Wall stock. According to my thoughts, even if Radish Heads really wants to get a "Fuji-Great Wall brand" out, they don't need to make such a big move, and they can register it by buying a few industrial and commercial bureaus casually with their power. Or the acquisition of stocks can also be carried out quietly, where will it be so lively, even the rickshaw pullers are talking. And even if we really make a Fuji-Great Wall brand cotton yarn, we won't buy it. ”
"Yes, it seems to be true when you say it. Thinking about it now, it doesn't seem like a big deal, but all of a sudden, it's boiling, with noses and eyes. So Brother Zhao? ”
