A day passed quickly, and according to statistics, nearly 20,000 were sold in one day, and this is because only gold is collected, and many merchants are not prepared. And the penicillin that was sold was quickly transported to ships and trains, and ran to all over the world, and at night Jiang Cheng and the five of them watched his subordinates settle accounts, and pack them piece by piece of gold.

"The owner, the results are out, and a total of 9,254 taels of gold were collected today." An old gentleman with eyes finished the calculation.

"Okay, this is the real Jinshan, but unfortunately, there are still too few goods, Brother Jiang, you have to bring the goods over quickly." Huang Jinrong's eyes were crooked when he looked at these gold bars and smiled.

Du Yuesheng also smiled and said, "I don't know when Brother Jiang will bring the next batch of goods, and how many can there be?" ”

Jiang Cheng thought for a while and replied, "I'll set off in a few days, and strive to come back within half a month, I can't tell you how much, the main reason is that the funds are insufficient, and the supply of raw materials is almost unavailable." ”

"This is easy to do" Lin Guisheng knocked his pipe and said, "Let's make up a few of us, you go back a few days later, we will find a way to sell all these goods, and strive to let you bring a hundred thousand taels of gold or something at one time, we will calculate the money at that time, the most important thing now is to speed up the production of medicines, Brother Jiang, you tell my sister the truth, how is your production volume?" ”

Jiang Cheng took a sip of tea, brewed it for a while, and said, "It's almost 100,000 every month."

"Well, this amount should be okay, but Brother Jiang, don't forget the share that Jì gave to Nanjing. Otherwise, Nanjing would not be satisfied, and this business would not last long. Yu Qiaqing thought for a moment, knocked on the table and said.

"You can rest assured, I promise that I will prepare a generous gift for Nanjing next time." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.

At this time, Jin Shan ran in and said, "Mr. Du, the brothers found out that those people in red are indeed from Hongkou." ”

Du Yuesheng nodded and said, "This matter will not end like this, everyone should be careful in the future." Mr. Jiang, is there anyone around you to protect you? ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "Our organization is mainly abroad. ”

Du Yuesheng nodded, looked back at Jin Shan and said, "Jin Shan, from today on, you will protect Mr. Jiang, and you must be loyal to Mr. Jiang wholeheartedly, even if someone shoots, I also want you to mention Mr. Jiang to block the bullet, understand?" ”

Jin Shan looked at Mr. Du and then at Jiang Cheng, knelt down and kowtowed to Du Yuesheng three times, and then stood behind Jiang Cheng without saying a word.

This is my first little brother? Jiang Cheng looked at Jin Shan and thought.

"I think Brother Jiang still has to find a few account clerks, my brother will settle the accounts, you don't have a few people here, this account will not be easy to calculate at that time." Yu Qiaqing thought about it and brought up the matter last time, Jiang Cheng said with some confusion, "But I really don't know anyone in Shanghai, how can I find it?" ”

"Haha, why don't you know anyone, aren't we human? Put up the big king flag, you have your own food eaters, Brother Jiang rest assured, let's go and put the news below, and ensure that there will be a bunch of people waiting for you to pick tomorrow. Huang Jinrong waved his hand and said that it was nothing.

Jiang Cheng nodded and shook his head, feeling that he still had to rely on himself to find someone reliable, but thinking back that it was indeed impossible for him to be here all the time, he suddenly felt that it was better to find a few reliable people at his own time.

After counting the money, everyone discussed, and each of the four sent ten people to guard the store, and sent the gold to the Du Mansion overnight, which was impossible to capture without the regular army.

Back at Yu's house, Yu Yishan saw that Jiang Cheng had been thinking about things, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Cheng, what's wrong?" Didn't you hear that business is doing well today? Why are you still sad? ”

As soon as Jiang Cheng looked up, he saw two majestic peaks dangling in front of his eyes, and hurriedly took a step back and pretended to drink tea, and said, "It's not a big deal, the main thing is to recruit some people to help me look at the warehouse and transport the goods." Second, I want to recruit some bookkeepers to help me settle the accounts. ”

Yu Yishan tilted her head for a while and said, "It's very simple, if you want to recruit reliable people, it's best to go to the coolie market to find laborers from the Northeast, I heard my grandfather say that most of them have been destroyed by the Japanese, and they don't want to be slaves who escaped from the country, most of them have backbone." As long as you are willing to give them food, and now the whole of Shanghai knows that we are working against the Japanese, loyalty is absolutely guaranteed. As for Mr. Ledger, my opinion is to ask Grandpa directly to help you find it. You're looking around with us, what if you find someone else's spy? ”

Listening to Yu Yishan's words, Jiang Cheng thought to himself that I was afraid that my person was your spy, but then he thought that he was helping himself settle accounts anyway, and it was nothing if he suffered a loss when he shared the money. Then he jokingly said, "I didn't expect Shanshan, you still have the potential to be a strategist?" ”

Yu Yishan also laughed and said, "I think you are a fan of the authorities, it is not a troublesome thing in the first place, but it is complicated by you." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded in approval, and said happily, "Then I'll go and talk to Yu Lao now, I want to solve the matter here quickly, and then go to buy the goods quickly." “

Yu Yishan frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "Don't you like it here so much?" Just arrived and in a hurry to leave? ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly said, "How come, but Shanshan, you see, we are in the pharmaceutical industry, if I bring the medicine one day later, maybe there will be countless patients in the world who will die because of getting the medicine one day late." Who will they blame when they die? They had a way to survive, but they left their families because of the lack of medicine."

Yu Yishan suddenly burst into tears, and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Cheng, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I won't do this again." It's just just"

Jiang Cheng saw that Yu Yishan was about to cry, and he was in a hurry.

"Just what? Shanshan, don't cry, I know you didn't mean that, that, that, by the way, can you ride a bike? Jiang Cheng remembered that Yu Yishan wore a riding suit last time, which shows that she is a girl who likes sports very much.

"Bikes? I have, and I used to like to ride it. Later, grandpa said that he would not be allowed to ride if he was not a lady. Speaking of playing, Yu Yishan said with shining eyes, but tears were still dripping on her face, making people laugh when they looked at it.

"I've got a new bike that you'll love, and there's a special bike suit!" Jiang Cheng said that Yu Yishan was very curious, and quickly forgot what she had just cried, and kept pestering Jiang Cheng to ask about the appearance of the new bicycle. Jiang Cheng was also very happy and kept talking about various styles of bicycles in later generations. Yu Yishan was excited, and jumped up happily from time to time. The two of them didn't rest until late at night.

The next day, Jiang Cheng told Yu Qiaqing of his thoughts, Yu Qiaqing was very satisfied, patted Jiang Cheng's shoulder and said, "Xiao Jiang, I asked Xing Yonghao to accompany you to recruit people, as for Mr. Accounts, I will let Mr. Du and them look for it, to ensure that you can see people tomorrow, however, Xiao Jiang still thinks about when it is better to go to Nanjing in time, and it is you who makes him unhappy and unlucky." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said that he knew, but he thought that Yu Qiaqing was worthy of being a loyal member of the White Party, and he kept talking about Nanjing in his heart, and then he was ready to go to recruit people with Xing Yonghao, and just went out, he saw Jin Shan squatting on the side, and when he saw Jiang Cheng, he quickly stood up and ran over and said, "Mr. Jiang, do you have any orders?" ”

Jiang Cheng then remembered that he was already a person with a younger brother. hurriedly beckoned, "Jinshan, just right, you can go with us." I'm going to recruit someone to do things for me, and I'm going to try to find your fellow countrymen. In the Northeast, it is better to have enmity with the Japanese, so you can rest assured that you can use it like this. ”

Jin Shan said a little excitedly, "Sir, don't worry, all of us from the Northeast are real men!" As long as someone is willing to lead us and the Japanese, we will dare to give his life to him. ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't get excited, don't get excited, I know that you are all gentlemen in the Northeast, do you know where you are all gathered?" ”

Jin Shan nodded and said, "Most of our northeasterners who fled to Shanghai Beach have been ruined, and the Shanghai Concession is not allowed to let us in, we can only find work nearby, and now most of them are waiting for work in Longhua Temple, if you are lucky, you can also wait for the monks of Longhua Temple to put porridge and eat rice." It's easy to get people over there, but most of them drag their families with them, and maybe—"

Jiang Cheng interrupted, "I know, I am more at ease when I use such a person, and most of them will not be bad people if they can insist on taking the old and weak in the face of military disasters." ”

Soon Xing Yonghao drove the car and took Jiang Cheng and Jinshan to Longhua Temple. It was a bit imposing to follow a few horses.

At this time, Longhua Temple has not experienced several catastrophes, and the antique fragrance makes Jiang Cheng of later generations very interested, and there are many stalls selling various things and incense candles at the door.

Because it was noon, several cauldrons were placed at the door, several monks were boiling porridge, and a group of unkempt and tattered people were honestly waiting in line to put porridge, which became a strong contrast with the drunken gold fans in the concession.

"These are all from the Northeast?" Jiang Cheng couldn't help but ask. "How many years has this been? How is this still the case? ”

"It's been six years, but most of these people are farmers, and they just do some short-term work, and they have to go hungry from time to time, and that's the case with homeless people." Jin Shan said helplessly. "I was one of them back then, but fortunately, I met a noble person, so I was able to live a human life."

"What about the government? Don't you care? Jiang Cheng watched these people who were unwilling to be slaves of the country live on the streets for six years, and his angry teeth were gritting.

"The government? They didn't even dare to send news from the Northeast. Jin Shan said disdainfully. And even the poor people who can't eat in Shanghai have a lot of them, where can they take care of it? It would be great if one day all the common people could have enough to eat, warm clothes, a house to live in, and land to cultivate. ”

Jiang Cheng turned around and asked, "Jin Shan, yes, you can say such things, have you read a book?" ”

Jin Shan nodded and said, "I've read it for a few years." ”

Jiang Cheng patted Jin Shan on the shoulder and said, "There will be a day, one day, this country will let all the people have enough to eat." ”

Jin Shan also smiled: "I also firmly believe that one day will come." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded, "Go ahead, find a place to plant flags and recruit people." ”

Probably this is not the first time this kind of business has been done, and under the leadership of Xing Yonghao, the division of labor will soon be clear.

Xing Yonghao asked, "Mr. Jiang, what do we say about this wage issue?" ”

Where did Jiang Cheng know the market in this era, and asked rhetorically, "What is your salary?" ”

Xing Yonghao said embarrassedly, "Mr. Yu is a good boss, I am 100 fiat currency a month, and the lowest one below is 30 fiat a month, and most of them can raise a family." ”

Jiang Cheng listened and thought about it, stood on the platform that had been set up, and shouted with a loudspeaker, "Recruit security guards, labor, labor 25 fiat currency a month, security personnel 40 fiat currency, require labor to dare to do it, security guards dare to fight and kill, our Weihua Pharmaceutical is a patriotic enterprise, often threatened by some lawbreakers, we need everyone to withstand and resist when the time comes." All people have food and lodging, one family packs one family, one person packs one person, and a maximum of five people per family. ”

After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, he threw the horn to Xing Yonghao and said, "Haoyong, this is according to what I just roared, Jinshan, you are responsible for picking people, 40 security guards, and 20 laborers." The security guards demanded that there was a blood feud against Japan. ”

Xing Yonghao and Jin Shan both responded and began to recruit.

Soon the people were recruited, and because of the good welfare and high wages, the refugees tried their best to compete for these places. Since they were all from the Northeast, Jinshan quickly became one with them.

Jiang Cheng thought about it for a while, called Jin Shan and said, "You go and register them, and after they are registered, let them each send ten yuan, and let them gather at the warehouse tomorrow." Let's go to the warehouse. ”

In the afternoon, Jiang Cheng and his entourage arrived at the warehouse of Weihua Pharmaceutical, Jiang Cheng looked at the surrounding environment, this place is a wasteland, so there are no people around the warehouse.

Jiang Cheng nodded and said to Jin Shan, "Give you a task, you buy all the land in the surrounding one kilometer within three days, and then start planning to build a house, let those of our people live around here, let them set up a tent or something for the time being, this money, I will pay you when I go back." I think most of the surrounding areas are barren mountains and fields, so I don't think it's a big problem. ”

Jin Shan said he understood and asked, "Mr. Jiang, do those recruited security guards have any weapons to prepare?" ”

Jiang Cheng didn't understand these things very well, and asked, "I don't know what those guns are good for?" ”

Xing Yonghao interjected, "Mr. Jiang, as long as you have money, you can buy guns in foreign stores, I don't know what Mr. Jiang needs?" Boss Yu knows a lot of foreign company owners, just say it. ”

When Jiang Cheng heard this, he immediately said happily: "Then let's have two shell guns per person, plus two machine guns." ”

Xing Yonghao said that he had written it down, and he would contact the foreign bank when he turned around.

After making these arrangements, Jiang Cheng returned to Yu's house and told Yu Qiaqing about buying land and building a house around the warehouse.

"Old Yu, I think so, if we are surrounded by our people, and we don't allow outsiders to come in, those who want to do anything will be discovered outside before they get close to the warehouse. How do you feel about the idea? Jiang Cheng asked.

Yu Qiaqing patted his leg and exclaimed, "Yes, this method is good, I didn't expect Xiao Jiang that you would also engage in intelligence, if this method is put in the military, the effect will definitely be good." ”

Indeed, this method is to make use of the power of the people and is the prototype of the people's war. That is, the mass prevention and mass governance of later generations, and the aunt of Chaoyang District in Beijing in later generations is comparable to the existence of national security.

"This is not so easy, if you are not loyal enough, it will lead to chaos." Jiang Cheng shook his head, "Now that the people agree with the government, I won't say anything, everyone knows it in their hearts." ”

Yu Qiaqing sighed and stopped talking about this. Changed the topic and said, "I will help you find the bookkeeper you want, it is an old bookkeeper who has been doing it for more than 20 years, I asked him to come over for dinner at night, by the way, you can take a look." ”

Jiang Cheng said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Old Yu, I've been taken care of by you too much along the way, I don't know how to thank you." ”

Yu Qiaqing shook his hand and said, "I see you as my grandson, and it's a bit out of sight to say this." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded embarrassedly, and said, "But I still feel that it disturbs you too much." I don't know whose building is next to it, or the house opposite. I want to put it down, and the province has been bothering you. ”

Yu Qiaqing was very unhappy when she heard this, and said, "What are you talking about, you can live here as long as you want, is there anyone chewing his tongue, you tell me, I have to break his mouth." ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, no one is gossiping, it's just that I've been bothering and embarrassed." ”

Yu Qiaqing thought for a while and said, "That's okay, there is a foreigner on the other side, as far as I know, his business is not very smooth, I will send someone to talk to him and help you take it down." ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you so much, Old Yu." ”

In the evening, a family banquet was held at Yu's house, and the new bookkeeper came early, this old gentleman was almost 50 years old, with half a hundred hair, elegant appearance, dressed in a literati robe, and wearing a black-framed disc glasses. Seeing Yu Qiaqing, he hurriedly bent down and said, "Boss Yu, I've kept you waiting." ”

Yu Qiaqing shook his hand, beckoned Jiang Cheng forward, and said, "This is your new owner, Jiang Cheng, Mr. Jiang, is the major shareholder of our Weihua Pharmaceutical." Come and say hi. He said to Jiang Cheng again, "This is the bookkeeper I helped you find, Lin Bao." ”

Lin Bao hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fists at Jiang Cheng and said, "I've seen the owner." ”

Jiang Cheng said embarrassedly, "I have met Mr., my business is busy, and I am generally not in the company, and I will need Mr. Lin to help me take care of my house in the future." ”

Lin Bao bowed his head and said, "Please rest assured, I will definitely look good for the owner." ”

Yu Qiaqing saw a scene of harmony between the monarch and the minister, and hurriedly smiled and beckoned the two to sit down for dinner.

Jiang Cheng found out that Yu Yishan hadn't come back yet, and couldn't help asking, "Old Yu, where is Shanshan?" Why didn't you see him? ”

Yu Qiaqing smiled, "School is going to start tomorrow, I asked Shanshan to go back to Qibao today to see his brother first, and there won't be so much time to come back after class." ”

Jiang Cheng then understood why Yu Yishan didn't want him so much that day, and left immediately.

Jiang Cheng couldn't help asking, "I only know that Shanshan studied medicine, but I don't know which school she is in?" ”

Yu Qiaqing replied, "It's the National Shanghai Medical College, Shanshan has one year to finish, and then she is going to go to Zhongshan Hospital for an internship." ”

Jiang Cheng didn't say anything anymore, and told the two of them about the company, and finally asked Lin Bao to accompany him to the warehouse tomorrow to meet the newly recruited employees.

The next day, Jiang Cheng took Jin Shan and Lin Bao to the warehouse, and when they arrived at the warehouse, a group of people were already waiting there, although they were still dressed in tatters, but their faces were already clean. It was the laborers and security guards who were recruited yesterday.

Jin Shan stepped forward and beckoned, "Brothers, this is your owner, Jiang Cheng, Mr. Jiang, everyone is called." ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hello Boss Jiang" and "Hello Mr. Jiang", which was noisy and noisy, making Jiang Cheng smile helplessly.
