Volume IV Prosperity 25 Shanghai Something
In other words, this Huang Jinrong is a ruffian, and after solving a few big cases by relying on the cleverness of the bag to inquire, he became very popular.
In fact, it was all a self-directed and self-acted drama by him, looking for someone to steal foreign things, and then he was looking for it back, but foreigners didn't understand, and he had to sell him if he was calculated by Huang Jinrong.
This also shows that in Shanghai Tang, relying on treachery, the more successful the mix, the lower the character value of the person. Huang Jinrong is one of the best.
Coming back from the theater, reluctantly bidding farewell to Lu Chunlan's white and tender body, Huang Jinrong hummed a little song, shook his head and returned to the Huang Mansion.
Soon after, Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin also came. They're here to reconcile. They partnered to open a Sanxin company, sold opium together, and made huge profits.
"It's good, business is a lot better this month than last month." Zhang Xiaolin said with satisfaction. He was given 150,000 oceans.
"Yes, big brother, it seems that we are going to become bigger and stronger, strive to control the opium in Shanghai, and at the same time go to the mainland to develop the market." Du Yuesheng built yƬ road.
"Are you sure?" Huang Jinrong asked. Now that gambling and smoking are prohibited in Guangzhou, many smokers and cigarette merchants have come to Shanghai to promote the development of Shanghai's large tobacco market. However, due to the blockade of Guangzhou, the tobacco delivered to Shanghai was cut off for a while. Because of the large inventory, Sanxin Company has made a lot of profits after the price of cigarettes has risen.
"Of course." Du Yuesheng smiled slightly, "We can open up the Yangtze River and take the Yunnan-Guichuan line to open up new channels." ā
"That's a good idea. I'll leave it to you! Huang Jinrong smiled. Du Yuesheng can be a person and do things, and if he hands over the matter to him, Huang Jinrong should also rest assured.
"By the way, what do you think of the bombing in the French Concession last time?" Huang Jinrong asked.
"Good fellows! Blow up half the street at once, it's ruthless enough! Zhang Xiaolin said a little excitedly.
Du Yuesheng on the side frowned, a little puzzled.
"Yuesheng, what about your opinion?" Huang Jinrong asked.
"I wonder if that mysterious man has any effect on us. As it stands, there shouldn't be. We should be a little more restrained lately, so as not to accidentally offend anyone who doesn't know. Also, on the side of the public concession, we should not owe them any more tobacco for the time being, lest they jump over the wall in a hurry, and give us such a trick, and it will not end well. Du Yuesheng analyzed.
"Afraid of what? How dare that class of red guys? See if I don't hack those bastards? Zhang Xiaolin said with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Hmm. That's right. For the time being, let's converge a bit. Don't go to the public concession to cause trouble, annoy the British, the French can't protect us if something happens. Huang Jinrong nodded.
Du Yuesheng nodded, and Zhang Xiaolin pursed his lips, a little disdainful.
"By the way, some time ago, the exchange I ran with had a good business, and I made money for several months. The market is very hot right now, the stock market is making money almost every day, and I am ready to invest the company's money in it. What do you think? Huang Jinrong asked.
"That's a bit unreliable, isn't it? Isn't it the same as gambling? I'm afraid I won't be deceived, right? Du Yuesheng hesitated.
"Afraid of what? Isn't it just gambling? Opening a casino is a gamble, opening an exchange is also a gamble, and now we are sitting in the bank, and there are still people who dare to get along with us on the beach? Zhang Xiaolin was a little unaccustomed to Du Yuesheng's mother-in-law.
"What Xiaolin said makes sense, no one dares to play us in Shanghai yet?" Huang Jinrong said with a smile, Zhang Xiaolin's words just now made him shout satisfied.
"Besides, the market is really good now, I invested 800,000 yuan in it, and I earned 500,000 yuan in less than half a month. But I didn't want to cash out, and waited until it was a little higher to throw it out. Huang Jinrong smiled.
His words made Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin very interested. The three hooligans discussed how to speculate in stocks.
When the three giants of the Green Gang gathered, in an inconspicuous mansion in the public concession not far away, Wu Manli was holding a baby carved in pink and jade, with a happy face.
"Dao Chief, you're here, please take a seat." She greeted the Absinthe people warmly.
Absinthe did not dare to slack off, and did it somewhat respectfully. Especially when I looked at the baby in Wu Manli's arms, I felt a little emotional. This woman is really not simple!
"Is everything clear? I want to confirm. Wu Manli's expression was solemn, and there was a faint domineering spirit of a superior.
"Hmm. I have compared Wang Chen's report in detail, and there are more than a dozen leaders and more than 50 congregants, all of which are not missing except for a few who are not present. ā
Absinthe said, after looking at Wu Manli, who was expressionless, he said, "Wang Chen has already gone to the United States, and our people have just confirmed this." Also, the people involved in this matter have secretly transferred them to South America, and unless there is an accident, they will never come back in this life. ā
"That's good! It's been a long time. Wu Manli said with a smile.
"Hmm. I'm here to tell you something today. Recently, I came on a mission from the United States, and I wanted to go north. Absinthe.
"North, is it important?" Wu Manli asked.
"Hmm." Absinthe nodded, did not tell Wu Manli the specific content, only said, "The highest secret machine." ā
"Oh." Wu Manli responded, since Absinthe said this, it must be the meaning of the United States. If you insist on asking, it will only backfire.
"Can the Taoist help me see this child's appearance?" Wu Manli asked suddenly.
Absinthe was slightly stunned, he was a little taboo about this aspect, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense. Wu Manli's question seemed to be improvised, and it seemed to be meaningful. Absinthe is a little unpredictable. He glanced at Wu Manli, looked at the baby carefully, and said after considering the words, "Gongzi is naturally a rich and noble life, with raised eyebrows, and he may take the road of domineering in the future, and he is afraid of many killings?????? ā
Wu Manli was very happy to listen at first, but slowly became a little nervous. "How is this good? Please make it clear! ā
"Don't be nervous, it's just a poor guess. In today's troubled times, maybe only hegemony can become a hegemon? ā
Absinthe said casually.
Wu Manli realized.
"There is an ancient jade here, I got it by chance, it is warm and smooth, people raise jade and jade to raise people, it is good for him, it can be regarded as a meeting gift." Absinthe took out a stalk of crystal clear jade and carried it to the baby.
"Did you get a name?" He asked.
"Wu Sinan. He took it. Wu Manli bit her lip and said, her expression a little complicated.
"Wu Sinan?" Absinthe groaned for a moment, then nodded, "Good! ā
The next day, Lin Yimin came to the door with his wife Huang Huilan. Seeing the children carved in pink and jade, Huang Huilan was full of love.
"Sinan is so beautiful! With big eyes and a straight nose, she will definitely fascinate girls when she grows up. Huang Huilan hugged Wu Sinan and said enviously.
Wu Sinan was not timid at all, leaning on the chest of the yellow beauty with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and looking around curiously with innocent eyes.
"I like you to have one." Wu Manli smiled, looking at her son's round eyes, she was proud in her heart. It's like him!
Being teased by Wu Manli, Huang Huilan blushed slightly and looked at Lin Yimin with some shyness. Lin Yimin touched his head, a little embarrassed.
After a while, Lin Yimin said to Huang Huilan: "Huilan, I have something to talk about with Miss Wu. "Yes
"Okay." Huang Huilan picked up the baby and went out with interest.
Lin Yimin didn't call the other party Mrs., nor did he call the young grandmother, in his heart, only that woman in the United States was qualified.
This made Wu Manli a little uncomfortable. However, Lin Yimin is Situ Nan's most trusted person, she can't say anything, but smiles enthusiastically: "Yimin, I'm looking for you." ā
"Hmm." Lin Yimin nodded and handed Wu Manli a box. This is the young master sent from the United States.
Wu Manli opened it and saw that it was a delicate watch, although she didn't know the foreign language, she also knew that it was an extremely precious gift, and she couldn't put it down when she held it in her hand.
Lin Yimin smiled slightly, and said: "According to the young master's meaning, he is going to transfer 5% of the shares of Meihua Company held under his name to Sinan's name, and you will keep it before the age of eighteen." I've already completed the formalities, you can sign here. ā
Wu Manli picked up the pen, her hands trembled, and she was excited. 5% of Meihua's shares is not only an astronomical amount, but also an admission to her, and her eyes are a little red.
After signing her name with a trembling hand, Wu Manli steadied herself and looked at Lin Yimin with some gratitude.
"The young master likes this child very much, so that I can take a picture and send it over." Lin Yimin said with a smile. As for the 5% Meihua shares, it is nothing to the entire William consortium, but there are many things that Wu Manli does not know. In fact, apart from a very small number of people, it is not clear within the Zhi Gong Party how large the William consortium is today.
But the achievements of the United States and China in China and the South Seas alone have amazed those people.
"The young master knows about the French Concession, and he is very satisfied. But it's too big, and he reminds us that we can't do it the same way anymore, and neither can those people. As for the second goal, I will do it myself, and I hope you will cooperate with me. ā
Lin Yimin looked at Wu Manli with some sternness. Although this woman is ruthless enough, in Lin Yimin's opinion, there is nothing, the William consortium spent the war money, and countless French and Germans died indirectly in the hands of the Bethlehem Company.
BP Fruit colonized Central America, plundered local fruit minerals, and forced locals to build roads, just like other American companies. In the South Seas, many people died at the hands of security companies in order to seize other resources such as oil. It's just that they've been doing it in the shadows, and few people know about it.
"Okay." Wu Manli nodded. understands that although she has given birth to a son, she can't see the light, and she can't talk about it in the whole group, so as soon as Lin Yimin said it, she understood.
When she went back, Huang Huilan was a little curious and asked, "What did you say to Sister Wu?" ā
Lin Yimin stared at Huang Huilan and didn't speak, looking a little strict.
"If you don't say it, don't you say it? Why are you looking at me like that? Huang Huilan pursed her lips and said, this young lady is still quite painful.
Lin Yimin smiled slightly, "Regarding the matter of children, you know that this matter is very important, don't sue others." He warned, in fact, Lin Yimin didn't know much about Situ Nan's thoughts, as if he suddenly had a woman and gave birth to a son.
"Oh!" Huang Huilan nodded. She was born in a rich family, and her father was very attentive and married a lot of wives, so she is still very clear about the little things between big families.
"Let's have a baby, too!" Lin Yimin looked eagerly at his delicate wife.
Meihua Building sits on the bank of the Huangpu River, outstanding, like a giant.
In the past two years, a large amount of investment has been made in China, and it has become a major consortium that affects the country's economy.
Lin Yimin walked into the building with a confident face, there was an important meeting for him to preside over today, and he had to deal with the upcoming tide of Shanghai letters.
"Since May 1921, there has been an upsurge of Chinese opening exchanges in Shanghai, and the number of exchanges has increased day by day, and all walks of life have vied to set up exchanges in their own industries, ranging from gold, cotton, silk, grain, oil, wine, and fur, to bamboo, wood, paper, tiles, candles, soap, etc., and some industries have even opened several exchanges in succession, and some industries have even set up Sunday exchanges and night market exchanges in an ingenious way.
Due to the lack of effective supervision, according to statistics, from May to October this year, as many as 78 exchanges were set up in Shanghai alone, and 28 new ones were established in October alone. Some of these exchanges specialize in the buying and selling of securities, while others also buy and sell goods, but the vast majority of them have stock and bond speculation as their main business?????? ā
Liu Zhiying, an analyst from the financial investment department of Meihua Company (China), was briefing the delegates on the development of Shanghai's financial stock market in the past six months.
"Opened so much? He also speculated his own stocks, there was no supervision at all, and there was no formal operation, what a group of guys looking for death. ā
Lin Yimin sneered, "It's so lively, it should be a national stock speculation, right?" ā
"Almost. In the past two years, the economy has not been good, business is difficult to do, Chinese businessmen and businessmen can not compete, those people have made a lot of money in the past few years, and now they are not profitable to invest in industry, so they have to take the surplus money in their hands to speculate in stocks.
Last year, the government fought two big battles and owed a lot of debt, and this year it issued bonds like crazy. As a result, the quarrel started and the quarrel started, and now I can't stop if I want to. Li Zhiying said with a smile. In the past six months, he has been studying this wave of letters in Shanghai.
"So, the capitalists in the cotton, textile, flour and other industries are involved?" Lin Yimin frowned, and said in his heart: Someone will jump the Huangpu River soon.
"Isn't it? The Rong family in Shanghai and the Zhang family in Nantong were initiated by some of the stock exchanges in the cotton and textile industries this time.
I estimate that after a while, in the end, I will go crazy and stay in the field, and those who can't escape will lose everything. I've already bought some of their shares, and when they hit the streets, I'll be able to buy their property. ā
Liu Zhiying licked her lips when she said this, like a wolf who has seen flesh.
Under his arrangement, the Meihua Company used various identities to open a large number of accounts on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, the Shanghai Huashang Stock Exchange, the Shanghai Huashang Gauze Exchange, the Shanghai Gold Exchange, the Shanghai Flour Exchange of China, and the Miscellaneous Grains and Oilcakes Exchange. It's a hoax.
"So how much money have we withdrawn?" Lin Yimin said with a smile.
"5 million. After I dump all those stocks next month, I should still have to make 20 million gains. Liu Zhiying said confidently.
"I'd rather earn less than keep my money in my pocket. Hurry up! Be sure to withdraw all your funds by the middle of the month. Lin Yimin commanded.
Under his urging, Liu Zhiying accelerated the speed of capital flight, and from the end of October 1921, he sold a large number of stocks, which was at the height of the tide of letters, and thousands of crazy speculators were desperately trying to absorb the stocks on the market, speculating the stock prices inflated, and completely deviating from the market.
Among the many stock exchanges in Shanghai, the Shanghai Stock Exchange is the largest one, founded in 1920 by Yu Qiaqing, a wealthy businessman in Shanghai, and Huang Jinrong, a gangster leader, with a capital of 5 million. After almost two years of frenzied speculation, the book size has swelled to more than 300 million.
Hengtai is one of the brokerage companies, and the shareholders are mainly Zhang Jingji, Jiang Weiji, and Xiao Hengji. This Hengtai is actually the initiator of the stock exchange, and in the two years since its establishment, the development has been booming, and the better and better market has fascinated them.
"Today I bought 500,000 shares, and there are still 1.74 million funds in Hengtai, do you think you still need to continue to buy?" At the meeting, manager Zhang Bingsan asked.
"Of course, now that the market is just right, let's do it again and we'll go. When the time comes, he will raise money and go south, defect to Mr. Sun, and gather various ministries to crusade against the warlord Chen Jiongming. Jiang Wei remembered.
"Agreed." Jiang Weiji's friend Xiao Hengji said simply.
"Let's do it again!" Zhang Jingji also nodded.
As a result, Hengtai began to buy a large number of stocks, looking at the stock price that was rising every day, they were furious, as if money fell from the sky.
"It's a lot of money. Zu Tao, I toast you. It's really right to leave the Maoxin to you to take care of. Jiang Weiji hugged a bewitching woman and had a toast with Chen Guofu.
In addition to the Hengtai, Jiang Weiji also partnered with Chen Guofu to open Jiamaoxin Company, engaged in stock and securities speculation business.
"Uncle Jiang, I still have to rely on your care. Today, according to your meaning, I bought all the company's more than 500,000 yuan and borrowed 1 million from the exchange, will this be a bit of a big gamble? Chen Guofu said with some worry.
"Niang Xipi, you little red guy has no guts. How bold are people, how much is the stock market, and what are you afraid of? Now the market is so good, after this period of time, we will send it. At that time, all the girls in Shanghai will let you sleep. Niang Xipi! Jiang Weiji was in a good mood and said confidently.
The drunkenness came up, and he reached out and pulled it vigorously on the chest of the bewitching woman in his arms. He was skillful, and at once he teased the prostitute to the point of being coquettish.
Seeing this, Chen Guofu was very knowledgeable, and hurriedly hugged another woman and left.
"The little crooked post-sheng looks like a veteran in the flowers, and just now he lied to my sister that I haven't played, it's really bad for you!" The woman immediately pounced on Jiang Weiji and groped hard.
"Hey. Niang Xipi! ā
Jiang Weiji pushed the woman who was scratching her head and posing, relying on the wine, and worked until midnight.
