Chapter 196: Wen He, you can have a snack

In fact, almost all of them who are at the level of local officials who are in charge of their own affairs will not be short of money, but some things cannot be solved with money, Chang Zhenbang really doesn't care about the money to buy flour, you must know that the income of Liu Fen's restaurant, the income of the Lu family wine shop, and the income from the raid of the real estate houses of those reformers are enough to reward and punish the army and comfort the wounded, all he needs is ammunition!

Looking at the battle between the Wuhan civil rebellion and the Kwai Chou rebellion, it is not that the victors have more will to fight than the losers, but that the ammunition is sufficient, when the base of the Manchurian Eight Banners Iron Cavalry was less than 200,000 people, relying on the bow and horse kung fu not only pacified the troubled times but also created a unified dynasty, that is the real will to fight, but unfortunately no matter how powerful the cavalry in this era, no matter how clever the tactics, no matter how resolute the will to fight, as long as the bullets run out, it is useless, how many decisive battles in these years are determined by whether the ammunition is sufficient, it is also a kind of sadness.

It is precisely because of the experience of the previous car that Chang Zhenbang had the idea of making his own ammunition, and then his enthusiasm could not withstand the reality, just to pacify the civil unrest in Xunyang Road almost emptied the ammunition depot of Jiujiang Mansion, although Nanchang finally made up for the consumption of this ammunition, but the gap in the past three or four days almost emptied his private ammunition, so he asked the British Empire to use ammunition to pay for the flour he produced.

But now that the British Empire has shrunk the base of ammunition exports, he can no longer exchange the flour that Britain urgently needs for the ammunition he needs, but he cannot change the owner, which is the sorrow of the weak. Fortunately, Brazil hinted that the pounds paid by the British Empire could be paid at market price, which comforted Chang Zhenbang's wounded heart a little.

The market is volatile, so let's slaughter the British Empire, anyway, he's not bad for money!

Basili will not stop either.

Once the war in Europe is over, Chang Zhenbang will sell all the assets and market share of the flour mill in the Jiujiang British Concession to Brazil at a reasonable price, regardless of whether the flour mill is losing money or not.

In other words, even if the flour mill still sells well after the end of the war in Europe, Brazil has the right to let Chang Zhenbang fulfill the agreement to sell the entire flour mill to him, and the two do not have any written agreement, but Brazil is a citizen and civil servant of the British Empire, and he is not afraid that Chang Zhenbang will not perform obediently.

This is also why Basiri feels a little guilty about Chang Zhenbang in the cafΓ©, Chang Zhenbang gave him enough cheapness, he is really embarrassed to embarrass the other party, but he can't accommodate the notice of the foreign affairs department, the only thing he can do is to pray for him sincerely in front of God, in addition to this, he is really ambiguous, after all, with his authority, he can't interfere with the relevant opinions of the foreign affairs department, but he can still make the final decision on the day of the military exercise and delay it for a few days, that's it.

For this incident, Brazil was full of apologies to Chang Zhenbang, and Chang Zhenbang's indifferent acceptance and understanding expression at the end made him deeply imprint this apology in his heart, and said that if possible, the Jiujiang Ying Concession Room could help Chang Zhenbang communicate with Li Chun secretly, and even secretly assist Chang Zhenbang in the operation of sniping Wen and flour.

In this regard, Chang Zhenbang was noncommittal, saying that he would properly handle the affairs of Wenhe, and there was no need for the British Concession to intervene until the last resort, just like the British Empire could not order Basili to negotiate with Li Chunwenhe and others, and he also had a reason not to let others know about his close relationship with the British.

You don't need to be too intimate or deliberately distant to deal with Wen He, and the magic circle for some things just needs to go with the flow. For example, the vigorous development of Jiujiang's commerce has attracted many landlords and tyrants, driving the movement of at least thirty or forty surrounding counties, and even the entire northern part of Jiangxi has vaguely received the influence and drive of Chang Zhenbang, and it can even be said to be restricted.

Because as early as a month ago, he had already done one thing!

To this end, he sent the third uncle of the Lu family, who was the quartermaster, and Dehai, who was the general financial office of Xunyang Province, to lobby the military and political local officials in northwest Jiangxi.

"The private industry in the entire northern part of Jiangxi is in the point of making a fortune, and more and more rich people have begun to build factories, but what can really obtain violence is nothing more than flour, soap, matches, textiles, etc., in order to obtain the greatest commercial benefits and reconcile the economic situation in the entire northern Jiangxi ,......" said the third uncle of the Lu family with a compassionate attitude, even though he knew that the other party was the guard of Gandong Town, but he was not afraid at all, it was completely an attitude of a teacher teaching students, and this attitude made the other party extremely dissatisfied!

"If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go, what are you doing with all this uselessness? Directly to Lao Tzu dry goods! The Gandong town guard roared commandingly.

"What adults mean is that they want everyone to have a fortune together, if you make a fuss, no one can make a fortune, just those factory equipment into the money is a lot! If you can't get back the money, won't the town guard make the adults feel distressed? ”

", his surname is Chang is the town guard, and Lao Tzu is also a dignified town guard, okay? He Chang Zhenbang wants to shout five and drink six, so he will go to his Jiujiang City to claim the king and hegemony? Less to Lao Tzu Gandong's ground presumptuous! Besides, Lao Tzu is a dignified Gandong town guard, and he Chang Zhenbang is still a small Jiujiang town guard! What do you want to listen to! ”

"Your Excellency is right! You are the envoy of the town of northern Jiangxi, and my family is the envoy of Jiujiang town, but everyone with a discerning eye knows that President Yuan Da changed the name of the town guard envoy of Jiangxi to the town guard of Gannan last year, the town guard of northern Jiangxi, the town guard of Gandong, and the town guard of Ganxi The plan of the four towns is the town guard, and now the three towns have been changed, but the post of the town guard of the west of Ganxi is missing on the Xunyang Road side of Jiujiang, do you know why? The third uncle of the Lu family asked condescendingly.

"Smack~!"

The Gandong town guard slapped the table and said, "Old fellow, do you know who you're talking to?" Pay attention to your tone, lest you anger Lao Tzu and shoot you! ”

The third uncle of the Lu family didn't bird him at all, and said, "What do you have to be rampant!" Although my family is just a Jiujiang town guard, it doesn't seem to be as big as the name of Gandong, but he is also the errand of Xunyang Daoyin, this Xunyang Daoyin not only manages more than 20 counties in northwest Jiangxi, but also can mobilize the county's garrisons and guards. If the imperial court gave my lord the position of the envoy of the town of Ganxi, wouldn't it make my lord sit in the position of a small overseer in northwest Jiangxi, then how could Lord Li Chun's overseer mansion manage my lord? Even you, the town guard, have to weigh your own weight! ”

The envoy of Gandong Town thought about it, and although he felt that what the third uncle of the Lu family said was very reasonable, he was unwilling to be inferior on the face, and still said coldly: "Even if he Chang Zhenbang is a small overseer in northwest Jiangxi, he can't control Lao Tzu!" ”

"The authority of my family is not in charge of you, but your goods have to go through the Jiujiang waterway, but you have to be careful of bandits and water thieves!"

"Bold, you dare to threaten this official?" The Gandong town guard was furious.

"Don't dare to threaten, my family only wants to be rich and everyone will make it, and he is willing to do this!" The third uncle of the Lu family leaned into the ear of the envoy of Gandong Town and said.

"Really? If he Chang Zhenbang does this, how can Lao Tzu not do this, but I don't know if this is your personal meaning or Chang Da's meaning! ”

"It doesn't matter who this means, the important thing is that the envoy of Ganbei Town, the envoy of Gandong Town, Yuzhang Daoyin, Luling Daoyin and other local officials all mean this, so don't be embarrassed, adult."

", Master Chang is really interesting, Lao Tzu will do what you want!" The envoy of Gandong Town turned back to Ma Ben and said: "Go back and tell the kitchen, kill chickens and geese, and I want to have a good drink with the third uncle of the Lu family~!" ”

These two are really veterans Huang Zhong, who lived up to expectations and left the industries with the least added value and the lowest profits in Jiujiang and even Xunyang Dao, and as for the other wealth-making industries, they were given to other Daoyin and town guards, but in exchange, these high value-added industrial products must be taxed when they go to the Jiujiang waterway, but what about tax points? Chang Zhenbang didn't charge much, there was only one point, and this money was really nothing in the eyes of those Dao Yin and town guards, so they all happily accepted it.

This kind of small tandem at the bottom did not hide from Li Chun's eyes, and of course Chang Zhenbang did not think to hide him, but after the general trend was decided, he personally took 10,000 silver tickets to Li Chun.

"You're so gracious! How embarrassing this is for the uncle! Although Li Chun said this, he stretched out his hand and put the silver ticket into his sleeve, and said, "I'm here today, the virtuous nephew has to drink a few cups with the uncle!" President Yuan Da said well, Beiyang should unite and communicate more, only in this way can Beiyang succeed! ”

Chang Zhenbang smiled faintly and said, "That little nephew is better to be respectful." ”

Li Chun smiled and said, "Wait until the above is called, let's get drunk and rest." ”

Chang Zhenbang said with a smile: "That's naturally afraid that Brother Wen He will not will!" ”

"What Lao Tzu said, this kid has to go, and if he doesn't go, he has to go!" Li Chun said with a smile: "The virtuous nephew won't come to Nanchang to accompany my old man to drink wine one way, let's talk about it directly, and we will have a good time later." ”

Chang Zhenbang smiled: "Actually, there's nothing to say, the little nephew just wants to come over and drink with the uncle!" ”

"Boy, when Lao Tzu is Mengren, will you still wear open crotch pants? Hurry up and tell the truth, if you really get to the wine table, you can talk about some things that you don't have, don't blame Lao Tzu for not being affectionate and only drinking. ”

"I really can't hide it from my uncle!" Chang Zhenbang was stunned for a moment, and then made a gesture of admiration, and said: "It's really not a big deal, that is, at the beginning of the month, the little nephew asked people to have a short meeting with a few surrounding military and political colleagues, so as not to wash the Longwangmiao family and not recognize the family, but I am afraid that some people with ulterior motives will chew their tongues and cause unhappiness to the uncle, so the little nephew has to come to talk to you in person." Of course, the long-tongued woman mentioned here by the little nephew is definitely not Brother Wen He, we have the most important feelings in Beiyang, so don't misunderstand! ”

Li Chun glanced at Chang Zhenbang, sighed and said, "You two rabbit cubs, you are definitely enemies in your previous life." But what you're talking about ......"

Chang Zhenbang hurriedly said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, every month, the little nephew will give the uncle 3,000 oceans as the uncle's supervision!" After all, we are all juniors, and it is inevitable that there will be some discord between each other, and we need a respectable person like my uncle to teach me a lesson or two, I don't know what my uncle thinks? ”

"Boy, look down on Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is not the kind of person who recognizes money and doesn't recognize everyone, it's wrong for you to say this!" Li Chun said a little unhappily.

Chang Zhenbang said with a smile: "You are not that kind of person, are we just that, at most four thousand oceans, you also know our situation, it can't be more." ”

……

After some bargaining, Chang Zhenbang made Li Chun the supervisor and protector of these people with his filial piety of 5,000 oceans a month, and with Li Chun's shield, those with ulterior motives obediently closed their mouths.

I only hope that Li Chun can ensure the balanced development of this kind of power in the entire northern part of Jiangxi.

If the forces of the people below are balanced with each other, they will not be able to pose a threat to the superiors, such a situation is what Li Chun likes to see, not to mention that he still has an income of five thousand oceans per month, so why not do it? The shrewd and sensible evaluation of Chang Zhenbang in his heart was directly replaced by a sensible and caring person, and even felt that Chang Zhenbang, a young descendant, was too fucking cute, if he became his godson first, what would there be to be a culture and something.

Speaking of Wenhe, the Dao Yin and the town guards north of Ganzhou have opinions on him, and feel that everyone has divided the way to make money, some people take advantage of it, some people admit that they have suffered losses, and the rest of everyone is to make a fortune in a muffled voice, but Wenhe This kid is too adaptable, he and his gang of fox friends and dog friends also run flour mills and textile factories, and what is even more infuriating is that these people rely on Li Chun's relationship is not at all about the face of the military and political officials in these places, as for the rules formulated by Chang Zhenbang, they can't see everything, and they are directly used as butt wiping paper.

Wen He has only one sentence for the kind words and persuasion of these military and political officials: "You play yours, let's play ours, whoever can get rich and who can make money is really powerful, and the rest is nonsense!" ”

It's a pity that if this kind of arrogance is said from the mouth of a very talented person like Chang Zhenbang, then others have nothing to say, after all, you can do it, but what is Wenhe, this dog thing? It's just that he just recognized a god, and he doesn't have any real skills, so he does whatever he wants, and he really thinks that there is no one in the world? Hehe!

Starting the next day, all kinds of corruption about Wen He, all kinds of selling officials, all kinds of bullying men and women, and even eating breakfast without money have been sorted out by some well-intentioned people, and soon all kinds of crimes and complaints about one person are piled up in Li Chun's office, which really makes Li Chun very sad, but Wen He is his person after all, and he is filial and diligent on weekdays, Li Chun can't do anything with him, of course, it is indispensable to be scolded and beaten a few times.

If Wen He really thought that everything would be fine if he was scolded and beaten a few times, it would be a little too naΓ―ve, his crimes had already been headlined by news media people in various parts of Jiangxi and even nearby counties in Jiangxi, and it was a storm for a while, almost to the point that Jiangxi people could not know Li Chun, but they would not know Wen He, and now Li Chun could no longer protect Wen He without pain.

"Boy, this time the limelight is too tight, and Lao Tzu can't help it, so I can only wronged you first, but don't worry, as long as the limelight is over, Lao Tzu will let you reinstate your official position!" Li Chun told him that he beat Wen He almost every day these days, scolded Wen He every day, but he still couldn't protect Wen He, which made him feel a little guilty, after all, he took people's money and people to eliminate disasters, not to mention that he was still Wen He's godfather, and now all this happened too suddenly, which suddenly made him a little weak.

Wen He said fiercely: "Father, what to do, I know it, it's okay if you don't become an official, I see what Chang Zhenbang has to say!" ”
