Chapter 720: Bloody Rain and Bloody Wind on the Beach (5)

At half past two o'clock in the afternoon, two American sedans with license plates of the board of directors of the French Concession slowly drove into Yiyuan under the watchful eyes of the military police and spies distributed at three street corners. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

From the completion of Yi Yuan to the present, no one dares to find trouble here, the French Concession authorities have long regarded Yi Yuan as the key protection object of the concession, although there are many people who come and go in Yi Yuan, but the people of Yi Yuan from top to bottom, have never added any trouble to the concession authorities, on the contrary, they have also given full assistance to the management and economic development of the concession authorities.

In the past two years, the Oriental Press Company owned by Ms. Sharapova, an American, has developed into a comprehensive transnational economic entity, and its "Oriental Film Company", "Oriental Academy of Arts", "Oriental Record Company", "Oriental Import and Export Trade Company", "Oriental Science and Technology Development Company" and other large-scale cultural and economic and trade entities have successively settled in the French Concession, promoting the rapid development of the already thriving art and culture of the French Concession. The French Concession authorities were delighted by the rapid occupation of the entire Shanghai market, including the French Concession, and a series of cultural exchanges and promotion cooperation with non-governmental organizations from various countries, especially the "Federation of Russian Artists", which gradually developed and became a powerful force leading the tide of Shanghai's advanced culture and life.

As long as the French colonial authorities think of the "Eastern Bloc", they can't help but think of Zhang Xi, a financial predator who has become famous all over the world, and when they think of Zhang Xi, they will think of An Yi, the emerging warlord behind Zhang Xi.

Before and after the Songhu War, especially after the explosion in the concession, many wealthy apartments and investors from all over the world hurriedly sold off the real estate and land they had hoarded, and a large amount of capital was withdrawn from Shanghai and transferred to Nanyang, Hong Kong, Dalian and other places, resulting in a rapid decrease in the price of real estate in the concession, which in turn caused war panic and investment decline throughout all classes, which seriously affected the reputation of the French Concession, and the ambitious five-year development plan of the board of directors was also seriously frustrated.

Just when the board of directors of the French Concession was at a loss to find a solution, Chen Yu's "Changjiang Real Estate" took out a huge amount of money to take over one after another real estate projects that were reluctantly abandoned by investors, and the real estate transaction tax contributed to this alone was as high as more than 2.8 million yuan, which greatly relieved the financial pressure on the board of directors and enabled the two large-scale development projects and several municipal construction projects that had been forced to be suspended to continue.

Driven by the strong influence of "Changjiang Real Estate", Mr. Du Yuesheng, one of the members of the board of directors, also followed the "Zhonghui Real Estate" in a high-profile manner, and successively invested more than 7 million yuan, acquired 11 properties and two large buildings under construction, and the American Jewish consortium also followed suit, injected tens of millions of capital, and set foot in the French Concession real estate, and then stimulated by the good news that the Sino-Japanese armistice agreement negotiations resumed and the war stopped, the economic situation of the French Concession improved rapidly, and in the whole of Shanghai and even the whole of China, showing a gratifying situation that stands out.

In this regard, although the French Concession authorities have a particularly complicated mood, they are still full of gratitude and respect for the big people behind the "Yangtze River Real Estate", and the importance of Yiyuan in their minds is self-evident.

Du Yuesheng's smile when he saw An Yi, very natural and bright, although they did not see each other many times, but the friendly cooperation that has never been blushing for several years has deepened, the close cooperation between Jiangnan Group and many enterprises under Du Yuesheng's name has brought huge benefits to Du Yuesheng and the high-level figures of the Qinghong Gang, especially the huge profits brought by those unsightly deeds, and Du Yuesheng's strength and status have risen rapidly and become more and more stable, only arms smuggling. In one fell swoop, Du Yuesheng squeezed out the three cross-fire smuggling groups in Hong Kong out of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai markets, thus establishing Du Yuesheng's position as the leader in this industry in one fell swoop, not to mention the strong monopoly of other industries such as the entertainment industry, the electronics industry and the pharmaceutical industry. Therefore, Du Yuesheng's smile is from the heart, although An Yi has never asked him for anything, but he has slowly put An Yi's interests and his own interests together for consideration, at least in the field of closer and closer business cooperation, they can no longer be separated.

On the other hand, Du Yuesheng became more and more jealous and awe-inspiring for the young An Yi in his heart, he was very shocked and had to admire An Yi's methods, a war that was a huge loss for either side, but it could become an ingenious opportunity to make a fortune in An Yi's hands, and this kind of wealth was not the usual despicable eating of soldiers' blood and making a fortune, but the mobilization of funds to speculate on real estate in the concession came to a Chinese and foreign taste, which seemed extremely ingenious and clever, and the series of unexplained bombings in the French Concession that night was the finishing touch, while bringing huge wealth to Du Yuesheng and the upper echelons of the Qinghong Gang, who followed An Yi to invest behind him, it also amazed the top management of the Shanghai Tang Gang, and formed an important consensus since then:

The young General An not only has 100,000 troops and is in the southwest, his tentacles are everywhere, his strength is all over the Yangtze River Basin, for the sake of interests, he dares to do things that no one dares to imagine, he has fought all the powerful in the country, the great powers do not have any authority and deterrence in his eyes, in order to achieve the goal, he does not care about the life and death of hundreds of people.

However, at this time, An Yi did not have the consciousness of being an important member of the central government and a powerful warlord, and his attitude towards Du Yuesheng was very respectful and natural, just like he treated any elder he respected, which made Du Yuesheng and Wan Molin, who accompanied him on the visit, feel very comfortable, so that they feel that they are like a family with each other, without so many constraints.

The guest and host sat down, the maid sent the tea, Du Yuesheng sniffed the tea, her eyes lit up, she took a sip of the teacup, and exclaimed: "Good tea!" Brother An, I didn't expect you to have such a good Junshan masterpiece here, I heard that Junshan Maojian has a rich annual output, but I am afraid that the annual output is less than ten catties! Speaking of this, Du Yuesheng shook the sleeves of the white robe of the moon, looking very elegant.

An Yi explained with a smile: "This is the Qingming tea that General He Jian, chairman of Hunan Province, sent people to express condolences to the soldiers on the front line in Songhu a few days ago, and asked someone to bring it to the younger generation, saying that this year's Hunan wind and rain are smooth, and the tea leaves grow very well. The juniors only have three packs here, half a catty each, and later they have to take the remaining one to the Feng Mansion to bribe Old Man Feng and beg him to marry his granddaughter to the juniors. ”

Everyone listened to the eyebrows and danced to congratulate, and Du Yuesheng smiled from ear to ear: "My brother is really a wonderful person!" Hehe...... Speaking of which, I have to call Old Man Feng Uncle Feng, I haven't visited his old man in the past month, or ...... Let's go together after chatting? ”

An Yi was overjoyed: "This couldn't be better, Jieyun's father, Mr. Qianru, calls his seniors senior brothers, if the seniors say a few generous words for me, I'm afraid it will be much more useful than the juniors kneeling down to plead!" Thank you in advance! ”

Everyone laughed again, and Dai Li couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You guy, I've never heard of you kneeling, but now your bones are soft for a woman, it's rare!" ”

"Heroes and beauties, ancient and modern! Who dares to say that the overlord of Chu has no bones? Wan Molin smiled and explained for An Yi.

Everyone laughed non-stop, but An Yi didn't care, shook his head and smiled to introduce the conversation to the topic: "Senior, I heard that the seniors and Mr. Huang (Huang Jinrong), Mr. Jin (Jin Tingsun) and other seniors opened a chemical experimental company under Sanxin Company?" Is there such a thing? ”

Du Yuesheng was stunned in his heart, nodded and replied with a smile: "That's true, not long after it opened, the experts invited have just overcome the technical difficulties, and the first batch of medical analgesics and anesthetics have been supplied in small quantities. Brother An asked, did you hear any rumors? ”

An Yi shook his head: "It's not a rumor, before leaving Nanjing this time, the Second Department of the General Staff Headquarters received an anonymous report, the junior happened to be at the headquarters at the time, and the director of the Second Department, General Lin Wei, felt a deep headache and used it to solicit opinions from the junior, and the junior suggested that he be directly handed over to the commission to deal with, and General Lin also thought that this was the only way to be more appropriate, because the scope of involvement was too wide, and it did not belong to the business scope of our General Staff Headquarters.

At that time, the younger generation felt that something was wrong, so he called the commander of the military police, General Gu Jichang, and learned that he had also received an anonymous report with the same content, and he didn't know how to deal with it, and asked me if Mr. Yongzhi's family owned shares in Sanxin Company. ”

Du Yuesheng and Wan Molin glanced at each other, turned to Dai Li with some humility, and asked in a low voice, "What is Yunong's opinion?" ”

Dai Li replied without thinking: "I only learned about this matter when Brother An mentioned it to my younger brother just now, this bureau was just officially established on April 1, and not many people know about it, maybe the person who sent the anonymous letter did not know the situation and did not provide us with any clues." However, at this time, when the relationship between the various factions in the central government is extremely delicate, it is better for the elder brother to pay attention to some things, not to fall into any tricks, and it is always good to say hello first. ”

"Well, that makes sense!"

Du Yuesheng arched his hand to An Yi and thanked him gratefully: "Thank you, Brother An, Gao Yi, the foolish brother has it in mind, haha!" In fact, this is just a small attempt, does not affect the long-term cooperation between us and the southwest, in the operation of drugs and new special drugs, Shanghai on our Sanxin company and Feng's pharmaceutical company to do the largest, Jiangnan Pharmaceutical Factory, Xiangxi Pharmaceutical Factory, Xingzhou Pharmaceutical Factory and European and American imported drugs, most of them are our two agents, has never made a mistake, please rest assured. ”

An Yi thought to himself that it was strange that I was relieved, and secretly refining heroin behind my back, can I rest assured? But An Yi still had a kind smile on his face:

"The seniors are serious, and the juniors don't mean anything else, they just want to inform the seniors of this unpleasant news. From this small incident, it can be seen that there are indeed some people in Shanghai who are restless, and the younger generation even suspects that there may be Japanese people who do everything behind this.

Over the past few days, there have been signs of intensification of the Japanese subversive and sabotage activities, with as many as 20 non-governmental anti-Japanese leaders being attacked, highways and bridges in Suzhou and Hangzhou being bombed one after another, and there are constant fights between sects in Jiangsu, Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Jianghu.

Today's Hongkou Park bombing is likely to be just the beginning, and the future of the whole Shanghai is worrying! Just an hour and a half ago, a brother from the former enemy headquarters on the Songhu battlefield called me, saying that two leaders of the anti-Japanese war organizations from exile in the northeast had come to our former enemy headquarters and asked for assistance by name.

It can be seen from this that if we do not immediately punish the Huai Gang, who are abusive and forgetful of their ancestors, and completely eliminate this traitorous force hated by all people, it will be difficult to reverse the situation in a short period of time, and the impact on our business will be a small matter, and the industry and commerce of Shanghai and even the Yangtze River Delta will seriously regress, which is also the thing that Chairman Chiang and the central government are most worried about. ”

Du Yuesheng frowned, stood up and took a few steps to think silently, turned around and nodded heavily to An Yi and Dai Li, who were full of expectations:

"Good! Cut the grass and eradicate the roots, eliminate the evil, do not do it, you can't leave any hidden dangers when you do it, I will help the top and bottom will be fully supported! ”

An Yi was very happy: "Thank you to your predecessor Gao Yi!" Brother Dai, I guess you have to try to find Mr. Wang Yaqiao and explain our hardships to him, after all, Xiao Ziyi, the leader of the Huai Gang, is his fellow disciple, so it's better to say hello.

However, no matter what Mr. Wang's final attitude is, the younger brother will give the Huai Gang a ruthless blow, please tell Brother Dai on his behalf, just say that I An Yi admires Mr. Wang's chivalry, but in the face of the interests of the country and the nation, there is no room for negotiation to eradicate the Huai Gang!

I believe that Mr. Wang will understand the righteousness, so that the Huai Gang can also avoid the possible resentment of the Huai Gang against the friends in Shanghai, if we really work together we can't completely eradicate the Huai Gang, but also let them understand that this is the army's doing, what grievances let him come to me An Yi. ”

"Little brother, what are you talking about? This game will not be left alone, and we will do it together! Dai Li's position was clear.

Seeing An Yi being so righteous, Du Yuesheng hurriedly walked up to An Yi and said sincerely: "Brother An, the family doesn't talk to each other, within three days, I will provide detailed information, don't worry!" ”

"Thank you, Mr. Du!"

An Yi happily stretched out his hand and shook Du Yuesheng tightly.
