Chapter 348: New Trade Routes

"Ahh Hearing Feng Kun say that he wanted to take out the gold to ransom people, Mieko exclaimed: "Ah, but the president, didn't you say that the price of gold is bullish, so you should take the opportunity to reserve more?" ”

Feng Kun sighed and said, "Alas, why not! It's just that I can't just watch my staff suffer at the hands of the Shina people. One more day is one more day of risk, so we must get them out as soon as possible. ”

Mieko's eyes were full of small stars, and she said with a look of adoration: "Muto-kun, you are really the best capitalist I have ever seen, and the best and best person in the world." Then he said worriedly, "Those poor clerks, the people of China will not do anything to them, will they?" ”

Feng Kun first smiled, and then said heavily: "It's not easy to say, think about how the imperial warriors treat the people of China, if the people of China want to retaliate......"

Seeing Mieko's panicked look, Feng Kun hurriedly comforted again: "Don't worry too much, since the people still want the ransom, they won't do it so quickly." Let's go, we'll go get the money now. As he spoke, his legs went weak and he almost fell.

Mieko hurriedly hugged and said worriedly, "Muto-kun, your body? ”

Feng Kun's face turned pale and said, "Ask the hospital to send a car to take us there, I'm fine!" ”

Mieko had no choice but to ask the hospital to send a car to take Feng Kun to the Zhengjin Bank in the British Concession. Seeing that it was the hospital's car parked in front of the bank, the guests and staff who came in and out felt very strange, and it was even more strange when they saw Feng Kun walking out in a hospital gown.

Xiao Tan Motozaburo hurriedly greeted him and asked with concern, "Mr. Muto." What's wrong with you? ”

Feng Kun smiled and said, "Xie Lu, thank you Xiao Tanjun, I have nothing to do." Let's go, let's go in first. The two little nurses who were in charge of escorting her throughout the day were busy carrying Feng Kun inside, while Mieko followed behind with a briefcase, followed by several bodyguards with serious expressions.

The bank manager, Tada Mori Kiji, hurriedly greeted him and said in a low voice: "Muto-kun, I've heard about the transportation bank, do you need any help?" If you have any questions, please feel free to bring it up, and you're welcome! ”

Feng Kun bowed. Said gratefully, "Aligado." Xie Lu Xie Tada's seniors' care! But I don't need it yet, I'm going to take out the gold I saved a few days ago. ”

Tada Moriji was taken aback and said, "Could it be that Muto-kun is planning to redeem people?" That's more than a million oceans! "It seems that Tada's news is indeed very well-informed, not only knowing that the transportation line of Ludao was kidnapped. It is also known that the ransom is 5,000 oceans per person. Even the number of people in the convoy was clearly identified.

Feng Kun sighed. He said, "No matter how much money there is, how can a person's life be precious?" It's just that I don't have that much cash right now, alas. I had to negotiate with the kidnappers. I think most of them are lions who want to make a profit, they can't really ask for such money! ”

Kiji Tada Mori nodded and said, "Sodosne, how much does Muto-kun plan to take?" ”

Feng Kun said dejectedly: "Take it all out!" I guess the kidnappers must have eyeliner in Tianjin, so I took out all the cash and hoped that they would see my sincerity and not hurt my staff! ”

Kiji Tada Mori gently patted Feng Kun on the shoulder and said movingly: "You are really the best boss I have ever seen, and under your leadership, your trading company will definitely be able to turn the corner!" As he spoke, he hurriedly beckoned the staff to open the vault.

The vault of the Tianjin branch of Yokohama Zhengjin Bank has two large and small vaults, the small vault is responsible for daily turnover, and the large vault is responsible for the entry and exit of large orders, which is not usually opened. This is also the reason why the theft of the vault has gone undetected for so long. As for the strange scratches on the floor, although they were discovered by the cleaners, they all thought that the adhesive had failed, after all, the adhesives of this year were not very reliable. No one thought that there was a tunnel down there, it was ridiculous, wasn't it?

Several clerks hurriedly called the two deputy managers of the bank and went to open the door with Kiji Tada. As mentioned earlier, the door of the Great Treasury requires three keys to be inserted at the same time to open. The three keys are in the hands of the three managers of the branch. After opening the two iron doors in a row, Tada Moriji stepped back and personally stepped forward to open the combination lock, and then asked the staff to open the door.

The big iron door creaked, and the vault slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Whether it is the manager Kiji Tada Mori or the ordinary staff, their eyes are wide open, after all, it is a rare pleasure to look at the gold in the house.

Boom, the iron door was completely opened, revealing a mess and empty iron shelves. Everyone stared wide-eyed and didn't say anything, because they couldn't believe the facts in front of them. Hallucination, definitely hallucination, Kiji Tada Mori rubbed his eyes with trembling hands, and carefully moved away to see - it was still empty!

"Ah, God!" A female employee finally couldn't stop screaming. Kiji Tada Mori could no longer deceive himself, and he fainted as soon as it was dark in front of him, and there was chaos outside the vault.

"Let's go, let's go!" Several male staff members hurriedly ran out with Kiji Tada Mori in their arms.

Feng Kun hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, and asked with concern: "Ah, my God, what is wrong with Tada-kun?" ”

The male employee didn't dare to tell the truth, so he had to answer vaguely: "I don't know what's going on, the manager suddenly fainted." As he spoke, he happened to see the ambulance parked outside, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Muto, can you borrow your car to take Manager Tada to the hospital?" ”

Feng Kun hurriedly said: "If I eat wood, I can be big (of course), send Tada-kun to the hospital quickly!" I'm waiting to get the gold anyway, so you can just get the car back. ”

An assistant manager who had just come out suddenly rolled his eyes when he heard the word gold, and he fell to the ground unconscious, causing the staff and guests to scream.

Mieko hurriedly stepped forward with a few bodyguards to protect Feng Kun, and said in a low voice: "President, it seems that something is wrong here." ”

Feng Kun nodded, puzzled: "But what can happen to the bank?" You can't be robbed too! ”

Although the latter sentence was quiet, it was still listened to by the last deputy manager. This guy was pale, trying to maintain order, but when he heard the word robbery, his heart struck like lightning. Vomited blood and fell to the ground on the spot. The three managers fainted one after another, and the employees of Zhengjin Bank finally couldn't bear it anymore. A female clerk cried like crazy: "The vault has been robbed, all the gold is gone!" The whole person fell into a state of hysteria, which frightened the rest of the staff into panicking.

Rumble! The guests gasped at the same time and quickly gasped out. The fast-reacting guest immediately roared: "Quick, I want to withdraw money, immediately withdraw all the money in the account!" The other guests also suddenly woke up, don't look at the big business of Zhengjin Banker, but they lost such a huge amount of money at once, but they are afraid that there is also a risk of bankruptcy. Even if you don't go bankrupt, you have taken out the insurance.

Mieko was so shocked that her little face turned white. His lips trembled and he said, "Ah, this, what can I do?" Muto-kun ...... "When I looked back, I saw Feng Kun fainting again. Hurriedly exclaimed, "Ah." Fast. Immediately send Muto-kun back to the hospital. ”

News of the robbery of the vault spread. Along the way, more and more people flocked to Zhengjin Bank. Since the bank is in a prime location in the British Concession, the location is excellent. Not only Japanese people like to keep their money here, but Chinese and people from Western countries also have a lot of savings here. Now it's all right. In just a few hours, the vast hall was packed with people who came to withdraw money, and in an instant it turned into a huge run.

Well-informed people even informed relatives and friends in Shanghai, Qingdao, Dalian, Guangzhou and other places, and it was predicted that there would inevitably be a run on these places. In short, Yokohama Shojin Bank is really dangerous this time!

Finally returned to the hospital, and Shinzo Ito, who had just taken a stake in Muto Trading Company for a few days, suddenly broke in with a few guys with oily hair and noodles. Mieko wanted to dissuade but was violently pushed aside by Ito, who rushed to Feng Kun's hospital bed and shouted anxiously: "Muto-kun, something happened to the transport company?" ”

Feng Kun nodded lightly and did not speak.

Shinzo Ito roared angrily, "Nani? How so! Didn't you say that the transport line is a hen that lays golden eggs? What about eggs? What about chickens? ”

Feng Kun sighed and said in frustration: "I'm so stupid, really! I know that there is a red beard in Jizhong Road, which is not safe, who knows that there is also a red beard on the Pingjin Highway? ”

Ito Shinzo said hatefully: "It's not a problem with the Pingjin Highway at all, those so-called representatives of Mongolia and Xinjiang are simply fake, liars, and redbeards in disguise!" Are you fooled? You idiot, idiot! ”

Feng Kun was taken aback, and said repeatedly: "No, this is impossible, they were introduced by the Defense Command!" No, I'm going to see Your Excellency Honma. As he spoke, he wanted to climb up, but I didn't know what was going on, and he didn't get up a few times.

Ito said angrily, "What can I do if I see it? Masaharu Honma, this bastard, is ashamed that he is still from an intelligence background! He scolded Feng Kun again: "You are also blind, can't you recognize the redbeard?" You bastard, I'm a newcomer, you pay back my money, pay back my money! ”

Feng Kun smiled bitterly: "Have you heard about the matter of Zhengjin Bank?" I don't have the money to pay you back now, and even if I do, I have to ransom people first! ”

A son-in-law next to Ito interjected sympathetically: "If you don't have money, you can use the trading company to pay off your debts, well, this secretary is good, I want it too, Ha Lu Ha!" As she spoke, she reached out and pinched Mieko's face, which frightened her and hurriedly dodged.

Feng Kun sneered a few times, pointed at the sons and said, "It's not that you have to lose money if you get the trading company, I'm afraid that you won't even be able to pay off the bank's debts at that time." ”

After being forced to accept Ito and others as shares, Feng Kun borrowed a large amount of money from the bank as collateral from the original property, and then spent all the money out of the bank.

When Ito and the others heard this, their faces suddenly became very ugly. Although they are arrogant and invincible on weekdays, they still know how many pounds and taels they have.

"Even if you mortgage it to the bank, you can get back a little bit, it's better than losing it all!" Another son-in-law said unwillingly.

"Huh!" Feng Kun smiled, shook his head and said: "This is the gap between you and me, you always want to lose a little less, so you have a good family background but can only rely on extortion to find money." ”

"Yaga!" Several sons shouted angrily in unison.

Ito Shinzo heard a little taste, hurriedly waved his hand to stop a few people behind him, and said excitedly: "Muto-kun, do you still have a way to turn the tables?" ”

Feng Kun nodded and said to Mieko, "Please bring that map, please!" ”

Mieko hurriedly took out a map from her bag and spread it on the bed to open it. Everyone gathered around to see it, but it was a topographic map of Northeast China. A son-in-law brother said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this Manchukuo? Now the traffic with Tianjin has been cut off. ”

Feng Kun explained: "Only when you cut off can there be business opportunities! Several of you have acquaintances and relationships in the Kwantung Army, so you don't need it at this time, but when? ”

Shinzo Ito wondered: "Then how do you transport the supplies to Kannai?" Now Jidong is full of red beards! ”

Feng Kun stretched out two fingers and said proudly: "A few days ago, I bought a foreign company, they have two small steamers, you can go to Dalian, or go directly to Yingkou to buy goods. ”

Everyone couldn't help but cheer when they heard this, only Shinzo Ito said with a bitter face: "But we don't even have the money to buy the goods, and the money we invested in the shares last time is all the funds in our hands." Then he said resentfully: "You told us that we will not lose money!" ”

Another noble man also said with a sad face: "Yes, how can I buy goods without money?" ”

Feng Kun instigated: "Why do you have to pay for the goods first? We can choose the way of consignment. You all have to go to Manchuria with the ship and use all the connections you can use! If you want to get rich or go the old way, it depends on your performance this trip. ”

"Yo Xi!" When the nobles heard this, they all became excited, and they shouted one after another: "Muto-kun, as long as we can make money, you can let us do whatever we want!" They had been discussing together for an afternoon before they left in high spirits, and some of the anxious fellows were already sending telegrams to relatives and old friends in the northeast.

In the evening, after returning to his residence, Feng Kun quietly threw a newspaper into the wastebasket. It didn't take long for a ticking sound to sound in a secret room. The radio waves quickly disappeared in the night sky, and Zheng Weiguo took the telegram manuscript that had just been copied, which read: The fourth uncle is fine, the Manchurian trade route has been opened, and the ginseng from Changbai Mountain will be brought back soon. (To be continued......)
