"How about the clothes we designed this time?"

In the studio, Caterina and Elano were holding a set of freshly made clothes, showing off to Yan Shao with some pride, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old maid was acting as a model to show off the clothes.

After the arrival of Standard Oil's $50 million, the original predicament was solved, and Katerina and her sisters relaxed.

At this time, Yan Shao no longer needed to worry about financial problems, so Elaline and Caterina began to ask Yan Shao for what he had promised, which was the so-called garment factory.

On the issue of the garment factory, Yan Shao does not intend to break the contract, on the one hand, because the investment in the garment factory is not large, on the other hand, after the Xinhai Revolution, the army he recruited also needs military uniforms, and this matter can be handed over to the garment factory to handle, so it doesn't matter if he loses money, anyway, he lacks everything now, that is, he is not short of money...

But the real reason is that the consequences of breaking the contract are too serious...

If Eleno and Caterina knew that he wanted to break the contract, Yan Shao could even imagine what would happen to him...

So after giving the two of them a sum of money, he asked the two of them to find out the site of the factory first, and then prepare for the problem of personnel and equipment. It's just that because we want to make a fortune on the Japanese, we can't build a large amount of construction in a short time, so as not to startle the Japanese and alarm the Japanese.

The two also knew this, so they didn't start immediately after choosing the factory site, but just picked a spacious room in the house and got a clothing design studio out, in order to look more formal. The two even hung a sign outside the door.

Later, because of the need to disperse the staff and count the number of textiles collected from the Japanese, Elano had to leave the studio. Go to Yan Shao to help.

It wasn't until some time ago that everything was on the right track and nothing needed to be taken care of, just waiting for the Japanese to notice that something was wrong and that they would end the dumping, that Elano left Yan Shao's office and returned to the studio to accompany Caterina to continue designing clothes.

It's just that although the aesthetics of the two are normal, they have no experience in this kind of thing after all, and they are not satisfied with the design of many sets of costumes, and it is only now that they have designed a fairly good costume.

This time, they designed a white sleeveless dress. Yan Shao also provided some views of later generations when designing, so although because the two have little experience, this dress is not a classic. But at least it doesn't look as earthy as the clothes of its contemporaries...

Standing in the center of the room, the maid who acted as a model lowered her head a little shyly, her face was also red, and she didn't know if it was because of Yan Shao's staring at her (clothes). Or is it because I have never worn such clothes.

And on the side. The other maids are looking at her with envy, although this sleeveless dress looks a little 'avant-garde' with the eyes of this era, but they can still distinguish between beauty and ugliness...

These maids were all brought in by Elaline and the others to help, after all, there were only two people in a studio, and there were also some chores that needed to be done, so they selected some from the maids in the manor to serve as assistants.

"Well, that's good. After adding my suggestion, it really looks a lot better..."I touched my clean chin. Yan Shao said a little proudly.

Listening to Yan Shao's words, Elaline and Caterina pursed their lips at the same time and didn't say anything more.

Although he was a little unwilling, things were indeed as Yan Shao said, and Yan Shao did make a lot of suggestions for the design of this dress. If it weren't for Yan Shao, I'm afraid this dress, like other clothes in this era, wouldn't be able to get rid of that earthy smell...

Seeing that the two of them were unwilling, but they couldn't refute it, Yan Shao smiled proudly.

However, his proud appearance was hit by it, seeing him smiling so proudly, the two who felt unhappy gave him a moment at the same time, but Yan Shao, who was still very proud, had to bend down with his stomach in his hands the next moment.

Seeing Yan Shao's grinning in pain, not only Ileno and Katarina, but even the maids around him covered their mouths and snickered.

————————————————————

Unlike the joyful atmosphere on Yan Shao's side, the atmosphere on Yamamoto's side was quite heavy.

"Say it again," Yamamoto growled in a low voice with his hands propped up on the table.

"Yes...", bowing his head tightly, Ryosuke Oda reported the news he had just received. That group appeared about three months ago, and as of the day before yesterday, I believe they had received nearly 50 million worth of goods from us..."

"Fifty million...", Yamamoto's hideous expression only lasted for a moment, and then he collapsed in his chair as if he had no bones.

As the branch manager of Mitsui & Co. in Shanghai, how could he not know the meaning of the number Lu Dao. poking out such a big basket, even if Yamamoto has made more contributions to the foreign bank in the past, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape punishment...

Removing all positions and completely losing all the future is already the lightest, and if you don't get it right, you may even lose your life...

"Kosuke Yamaguchi!" Gritting his teeth, the name seemed to give him a lot of strength, and Yamamoto held the hand of the chair handle as if he was about to break it.

For him, if it weren't for the inaccuracy of Kosuke Yamaguchi's information, then everything would not have happened, and if he hadn't chosen to abscond, then at least the losses of Yokoji would have been less, and his guilt would have been lighter.

On the other side, Ryosuke Oda stood aside and didn't say a word, for fear of being involved in this incident.

Although he doesn't have much wisdom, he also knows that Yamamoto may be finished this time...

Just as Yamamoto was gritting his teeth and reading Kosuke Yamaguchi's name, a person suddenly broke in outside.

Looking at the person who broke in, although this person was also a close confidant of Yamamoto, Yamamoto still stared at him, and he was about to scold when he opened his mouth. It can only be said that he hit the muzzle of the gun, this time is when Yamamoto's mood is the most depressed, and someone needs to stand up and let him vent.

But before he could vent, the cronie had already panicked.

"Your Excellency, the foreign banks are here again, and they are demanding that we fulfill our promises, or they will threaten to withdraw from this operation..."

Unlike Mitsui, those foreign companies are all small households, and they have almost lost a lot of money in five months, even to the point of breaking their muscles and bones. At this time, the markets of Anhui and Jiangxi provinces, which Yamamoto promised, had not even been able to touch the edges.

If it continues like this, Yan Shao's Wuhu Textile Factory will not cross them and they don't know, they are afraid that they will collapse first.

It's just that they also know that it is impossible for Yamamoto to allow them to stop without authorization, so a few foreign companies that really can't hold on to it privately connect with other foreign companies, and after obtaining the consent of other foreign companies, almost all of these small foreign companies have risen up, creating Yamamoto's rebellion, and even Mitsubishi foreign companies are the same—————— although they are still within the range of bearing, but since they can find Yamamoto's trouble, why not do it.

As for whether their contradiction would give Yan Shao a chance, they were not worried about this, and they did not know the news that Yan Shao suddenly had a large amount of money, let alone that more than half of the goods they dumped into several provinces in Anhui were collected by Yan Shao.

In their opinion, Yan Shao is not far from dying, there is no need to pay attention to it, the most important thing now is the issue of Mitsui Foreign Company, anyway, Yamamoto must fulfill what he promised them. Otherwise, they can only really withdraw from this operation, after all, no matter how beautiful the cake is, if the factory closes down, it will also lose the qualification to carve up.

"These damn guys, they actually chose to be at this time..."

Hearing that the little ones were threatening to strike, Yamamoto angrily slammed his fist on the table.

It's just that under the angry exterior, Yamamoto also followed the panic.

"Do you want to make the matter public first, so that the losses of the foreign bank can be less..."No, no, it's not ready yet, if I announce the matter now, I'll be finished..."

In Yamamoto's mind, two minds kept fighting back and forth.

Of the last two thoughts, one of them won the victory...

"Hide this news for the time being, don't leak it..."After signaling the cronies who sent the news to withdraw first, Yamamoto said to Ryosuke Oda.

People are not for themselves, and the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and in the end, it is the latter thought that prevails.

Hearing Yamamoto say this, Ryosuke Oda was taken aback. "But!"

"No, but!" Yamamoto said sternly.

If the matter is announced now, the losses of these foreign companies will indeed be reduced, but then he will not have time to prepare. When he heard the news, Yamamoto also had the same idea as Kosuke Yamaguchi and absconded, but he couldn't escape, because almost all of his wives and children were in Japan, and if he escaped, what would happen to his wives and children...

If the amount involved in this incident is only a few million, at least Yamamoto can have a decent ending, but more than 100 million, this is no longer something that can be solved by normal means.

So he had to find someone to take full responsibility in the shortest possible time...

Originally, Kosuke Yamaguchi should be the best candidate, after all, the information was obtained by them, as long as Kosuke Yamaguchi and them were pushed out, for the sake of Yamamoto's past achievements, maybe he could still have a way to live.

But now that Yamaguchi and they're gone, he needs a new one.

Biting his lip tightly, blood flowing down the corner of his mouth.

"I must live."
