The standard of this food is set by Zhao Yun, although there is no wine banquet, but the meat is white flour steamed buns, and the tube is full. The militia groups that ate so much that Wang Yougui supported them all, and they could watch performances while eating.

After watching the performance, when I heard that only those who had finished training had dinner in the afternoon, and there was a little wine for dinner, I immediately held the training in the afternoon that day, all of them were full, and no one picked on them anymore.

In fact, at the beginning of the training, it was announced that the learning matters were to practice, that is, to practice marksmanship, run, and then learn how to walk darts with the dart master.

Wang Yougui looked at this group of veterans who didn't make trouble when they were full, and couldn't help but ask himself, "Has Lao Tzu been withholding their food?" ”

Of course not, Zhao Yun's musketeers performed two shows when they were eating, one was ten shots in a row, the guns were on target, and they were also in the middle of the heart. I saw a lot of veterans pouting, isn't this just getting off the horse?

Sure enough, there were also people in Wang Yougui's militia who stood up without saying a word, "Brothers, some people want to be the uncle here, what do you say?" ”

"Little Liuzi, go and show them your unique skills, and let them know what it means to have people outside the sky!"

"Shh Someone else made a silent action, "Be quiet, don't scare those uncles!" ”

"Hahaha!"

The man known as Xiao Liuzi walked out without saying a word, took a rifle handed over from the crowd, and also made a hundred rings, and now the soldiers and ruffians made even more trouble, and most of them looked at the musketeers arrogantly.

The musketeers also did not say a word, and then played with a hand to catch the explosives bag with their bare hands.

When I saw that the explosives bag was lit and passed in the hands of the four musketeers, after passing it twice, suddenly the last musketeer who received it immediately threw the explosives bag in his hand, and just threw out the explosives bag, the scene of the explosives bag exploding in mid-air shocked everyone, the master is not terrible, the terrible is the master or the madman.

Seeing that the musketeers actually played such a hand, all the soldiers who dared to make trouble weighed it in their hearts, and they were afraid of being stunned, and they were afraid of dying. They have had contact with the people of Shifo Mountain, and they all know the "secret news" that is circulating in private!

Zhao Yun's subordinates' way of dying directly into clear water when they were killed, as well as the small activities at lunchtime, made everyone jealous, which was the reason why these soldiers were able to train normally in the afternoon.

Of course, Wang Yougui ate a small stove, and he was not with the lobby, so he didn't see the situation at the time, but when he heard it afterwards, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time! It's crazy, it's just playing with your life!

However, even so, Zhao Yun felt that it was not safe, and still asked the monks to talk to these ruffians and all the people of Shifoshan in detail that night to avoid future troubles.

In fact, this time I heard that Wu Xiaoya was injured, and Zhao Yun wanted to sneak back to Zhou Village secretly, but the arrival of an important person happened to take up the only free time he had.

In the summer and autumn of 1921, when Zhao Yun was actively responding to the Outer Mongolia incident, a storm that swept the whole of China came.

After the First World War, foreign capital began to enter China again because of the subsidence of the war in Europe, and the golden age of China's national capitalist industrial development gradually passed, coupled with the collapse of silver and foreign exchange, the wealth of China based on silver shrank, and a large number of holders lost the direction of investment, and the continuous growth of wealth for several years also made some people's ambitions bigger, and a large amount of idle funds were transferred to the speculative activities of buying and selling short.

The exchanges and trust companies in the land of China were surging for a while. Most of these information exchanges belong to the two knives, either returning from studying abroad or once stealing from foreigners to learn art, belonging to the kind of half-bottle of water, shaking loudly, a large number of illegal operations, speculating on the stocks of information exchange enterprises, forming a chaotic market situation, causing a huge bubble.

Shanghai is at the center of this storm.

Many people think that in the twenties and thirties, China was very backward, but in fact this is not necessarily the case. As early as 1883, a financial panic broke out in China, which is now commonly known as the financial crisis. At that time, the Shanghai securities market, which originated from the Qing government's government-supervised commercial enterprises, once had a situation of "prosperity and prosperity". Of course, this kind of prosperity appeared in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and it still had a future for development, but when it appeared in the late Qing Dynasty, when the building was about to collapse, it must not be a good thing.

The securities market refers to the market for the issuance and circulation of various securities, including government bonds, company stocks, corporate bonds, etc., and the stock exchange is a highly organized and standardized place for the transfer and trading of securities. Sure enough, the Qing government gave it the opportunity to develop, but there were no corresponding management measures, which caused the stock market to fall a few years later.

However, sooner or later, good things will shine, and the time will soon come to the Republic of China, and the securities market in the early years of the Republic of China was active again under the leadership of a group of Westernists, and stock trading increased day by day. The Beiyang government even promulgated the Stock Exchange Law in 1914. It seems that there are still people of insight who have realized how to regulate and make good use of this market.

So in 1921, the Shanghai Stock Exchange was officially opened. And then it was chaotic again, and the Shanghai Huashang Stock Exchange was reorganized from the original stock business association, and then the gauze, gold, machine-made flour, miscellaneous grains and oil cakes and other industries successively established exchanges. After the opening of these exchanges, the stock price skyrocketed, and they profited from it.

Now it's okay, you don't need to do business, you can make a profit just by buying and selling stocks, so who is going to work hard to open a factory! For a time, people mistakenly thought that investing in exchanges was a shortcut to making a fortune, only making money and not losing money, so that it snowballed, getting bigger and bigger, triggering a speculative crisis.

Well, this thing came out, and the Beiyang government at that time had a headache, and there was no precedent for this! How to deal with it? At the same time, we negotiated with the authorities of foreign concessions to strictly prohibit the establishment of exchanges and trust companies in the concessions and purify the market.

Eventually, after the turmoil, securities trading plummeted. Stocks have become waste paper, and the credibility of the enterprise has been lost; However, this does not mean that all the sticks have been killed, the people still have money and need to invest, so the government's public bonds have come back after a period of silence and have become the main object of securities trading in one fell swoop.

Of course, these have no effect on Zhao Yun, this guy is the master of spending, but some people have an impact.

The Yao family in Changshu, Jiangsu, is a wealthy man who knows everything in the south of the Yangtze River.

The current head of the family, Yao Zhibi is the thirteenth, more than forty years old, there are a total of fifteen brothers and sisters in this generation in the family, but there are only four men, the eldest folded in the battle of Chenghuan, and won the title of Lao Yuan's "Jiangmen family", the second folded in the battle of Weihai, and won the "loyal and brave family" of the Qing court, his father saw that the two sons died, and the third son could no longer go to the battlefield to transfer to literature, and the north was too dangerous to go, so the third went to the south to do a book office, and the result was folded in the Protectorate War, and obtained Sun Cannon"Scholarly family", his father was overly sad after hearing the news and hung up.

Yao Zhibi, the old man, can only stand up to support this family business, but the old man hangs up, although Yao Zhibi does not hold any official position, no one dares to bully the Yao family.

Not to mention the titles of the three families, only the eleven sisters and sisters of the Yao family are married to official eunuchs, and the Yao family is like a spider, living on a web woven by an old man, as long as the web is not broken, it will not fall.

Shi Nong Industry and Commerce, business has always been at the end, the scholar class has always been ashamed of doing business, but the expenses are not small, so Yao Zhibi, the brother-in-law and brother-in-law, happened to become the spokesperson of the eleven families, worthy of the name of the official businessman.

When the Yao family was at its peak, the radiation scope of the business circle spread to half of China, and banks and money banks in Shanghai, Yangzhou, Suzhou and other places vied with each other to provide loans to the Yao family's factory.

However, Zhang Jian, who was also the godfather of early Chinese commercial economy in Jiangsu, was different, the Zhang family devoted himself to the textile industry, while the Yao family was more miscellaneous, and all walks of life intervened.

Miscellaneous is not specialized, or is there no miscellaneous good, this problem has troubled many people, the Zhang family has twenty or thirty million cash in its heyday, and the amount that can be overdrawn is between five or six million. It is said that "the only Chinese people who borrow money from foreign banks in the form of loans instead of deposits are Dasheng (Zhang's industry)." ”

Compared with the Yao family and the Zhang family at this time, it is the contrast between an elephant and a thin horse.

But when the financial crisis of 1921 loomed, the largest source of wealth of the Zhang family, the Dasheng Yarn Factory, had a debt of 4 million taels, and the crisis began to appear, and the oil mills, flour mills, smelting mills, and power plants under the name of the Zhang family could not replace the position of the yarn factory. At this time, the shrewd Yao family began to look for new sources of wealth, and they found the upstart in the Jiangnan realm, Zhao Yun.

"You mean opening a steamship company?" Zhao Yun was very surprised by the visit of this rich man. Although Changshu and Yixing are not far away, they also have to travel for several days, and this rich man in Jiangnan is willing to put down his shelf and visit in person.

"That's right, I want to set up a steamship company. The county magistrate does not have to be surprised, this is a precedent, the Zhang family of Nantong in the 30th year of Guangxu (1904), founded Nantong Dada Wheel (step is the bureau), and later set up the Dada Steamship Company to open up routes in the inland rivers of northern Jiangsu. Kaitai-Dong-Yanban, once a day, follow the Salt River from Taizhou to Dongtai, and then from Dongtai to Yancheng along the Tanchang River.

Later, the scale of business increased, and there were branches in Dongtai, and there were steamship stations in the market towns along the line, which handled freight and passenger transportation, and achieved water transportation between Dongtai and neighboring counties. ”

Yao Zhibi saw that Zhao Yun was still quite interested in this, so he continued, "The Jiangnan waterway is crisscrossed, but unfortunately I haven't been able to buy a large number of tugboats before, but the county magistrate has this way, so I want to join forces with the county magistrate to open a steamship bureau!" ”
