Chapter 40
Establish a bank to raise shares and make a joint effort in the snow country
As soon as the sun came out, there was a lot of commotion in the business hall, and people kept walking in, and the doorman was overwhelmed. Most of the people who came in were holding a copy of the Shanghai "Declaration" in their hands.
Most of these people will stop in front of the gate of the hall, look up at the signboard for a while, or even point a finger, and then open their clothes and stride into the hall.
In the middle of the hall sat a long case on the left, crowded with people, either noisy or talking, full of voices. After the case, two people sat firmly, one was busy registering and making a book, and the other collected money and put it into a small money cabinet.
On the right side of the hall stands a bulletin board, on which two notices are posted side by side, one of which is titled "Announcement of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce" and the other is "Notice of Raising Principal by a Fully Commercial Bank".
There was a larger group of people standing in front of the announcement, and the voices were even louder.
In the prime minister's room on the third floor, Zhu Heyi looked at the jerk with his mouth closed: "Jerk, your trick is really called Lingli, "Declaration" has only been on for three days, and the popularity has gathered. I have just reviewed it, and almost all of the people who can come to the Shanghai market have come. β
"Uncle Zhu," Jeju responded, "This shows that the more sluggish and scattered the people are, the more important our guild hall is." Uncle Zhu didn't pay attention, everyone who came should stop and look at the sign, because it had been smashed. Smashing the sign and looking at the sign shows that everyone cares about this brand. β
"Yes. The first step is out, and the next step should be the second step. β
"Uncle Zhu," Jeju took out a folder, "This is the recent event schedule of the General Chamber of Commerce, please review!" β
After reading the justice, he put it on a few cases and looked at Jeju: "Okay, you plan accordingly." He smiled bitterly again, "Jerk, there is a matter, I wish Uncle ...
"It's a fundraising thing, right?"
"Yes. I have asked many friends, but they refuse to let go, one is that they have no money, and the other is that they have no score in their hearts. The 100,000 taels I promised were also a bit unexpected. I have a lot of business names in name, but they don't belong to me entirely, and I convene shareholders to discuss the matter, but most of the partners are unwilling. Alas, Qian Zhuang fell to the ground in a flash, and they had palpitations! β
"Hmm."
"Uncle Zhu only has the big store on Nanjing Road on hand, and he can borrow 50,000 taels at most!"
"Uncle Zhu will lend out the 50,000 taels, and we will buy the building!"
"Buy a building?" Heyi was stunned, "How can 50,000 taels be?" Isn't it half a million? β
"I have a way!"
"What's the solution?"
"Tai Chi emphasizes four or two thousand catties, and I want to spend 50,000 to win 500,000!"
Zhu Heyi stared at the jerk, for a long time, and nodded solemnly: "Jejeje, you are on duty here, I will go to the foreigner bank to handle the pledge!" β
Just as Heyi went downstairs, Shun'an and Zhang Hu walked into the hall.
The two of them looked at it for a while, slowly paced to the notice board, and Shun An's eyes fell on a few lines of big characters in the bank's notice: "A total of 3,000 shares, 1,000 taels per share." The 3,000 shares are all original shares of the bank, and all the original shares are treated equally.
"Little Niang Bili, three thousand shares, three million taels..." Zhang Hu snorted lightly in his nose and looked at Shun'an, "Your brother can really blow!" β
Shun An didn't seem to hear it, his eyes tightened, and he locked firmly on the announcement.
"Let's go, let him blow it away," Zhang Hu took his elbow and pushed Shun'an, "You have already signed up, and it's okay to stay here, Brother Zhang, please watch the excitement!" β
"What's the excitement?"
"You'll know when you're gone!" Zhang Hu picked him up and walked out of the hall side by side.
Not far from the hall is the core area of Nanjing Road, where the bustle Zhang Hu said.
It's a square, and in the middle of the square is a Chinese-style ring, in front of which thousands of people gather to watch the excitement, and many more people flock here.
Chen Jun and Miss Ding's rickshaws came here, and they happened to be tightly blocked. The coachman asked for a detour, but Chen Jun was a lively person, so he immediately paid for the car and dragged Miss Ding into the crowd.
Xu is fate arranged, the two squeezed behind Shun'an and Zhang Hu, and they couldn't squeeze anymore, because Zhang Hu stood beside a few brothers and blocked the ring tightly. Chen Jun and the others stopped crowding, and looked at the table through the gap between Zhang Hu, Shun'an and others.
There is a huge barbell in the ring, behind the stage is a tall building, and above the main entrance is a huge banner, which is impressively written "Daohong Yangxing" four big characters, and attached to English. Two banners are exaggerated on both sides of the ring, like a couplet, the upper one is: "Brineos challenges Chinese kung fu"; The next link is, "The world boxing champion has fought in forty-four countries". Obviously, the couplet corresponds to the banner above.
There is a sign erected in a conspicuous position on one side of the table, on which the challenge rules are written in Chinese: hit with bare hands, no protection, no rules, defeat the ring for losing, death and injury exemption!
In the ring, a burly foreigner is flexing his muscles, and the translator and two foreigners are building momentum on either side of him.
The crowd gathered.
Cangzhu, who was dressed in Taoist robes, watched from afar, and Ge Li stood not far in front of him.
The translator clenched his fists and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Leppis, a wrestler of the British Empire and the world boxing champion, has traveled around the Americas, Europe, Africa, Australia, and Asia, fought in 44 countries, fought 445 games, killed and injured 444 people, and did not lose a single defeat. Mr. Leppis heard that Chinese kung fu is proficient, so he came to Shanghai to choose this feng shui treasure place and set up this ring according to Chinese customs to challenge the Chinese wrestlers. Mr. Leppis wants to fight here for ten days, and within ten days, any hero, regardless of background or background, can go on stage to fight and compete with Mr. Leppis! Turning around, he pointed to a card next to him, "Everyone, please look at this card, in the arena, life and death do not matter, as of today, the ring has been set up for three days, and I have not yet had any warriors in China challenge Mr. Leppis!" β
All eyes on the field were fixed on the huge barbell in the ring.
"Ladies and gentlemen," the interpreter said, pointing to the barbell, not without pride, "it's called a barbell, and it's used by Mr. Leppis for his daily training, and it's made of muddy iron, and Allah doesn't know how heavy it is." Which strong man would like to try it on stage? β
Everyone looked at each other.
The translator pointed to a strong man: "This good man, would you like to try it on stage?" β
That man Ziguo was a man of blood, spit a few mouthfuls into the palm of his hand, and moved the barbell on stage. The man exerted all his strength, and the barbell did not move.
The man dried his face, shook his head, and stepped down in a daze.
Then, some young wrestlers took turns on stage and tossed the barbell. The barbell was like taking root, no matter how they tossed it, it didn't move.
The translator continued: "One can't work, you can go to two!" β
"Little lady Bili, it's all support, go up and try!" Zhang Hu muttered, pushed his subordinates, and bowed to the stage.
Two of his men jumped up to lift the barbell, holding back their strength, and the barbell only moved a few times. Zhang Hu pouted again, and went up to the two of them again. The four of them worked together to finally lift the barbell off the ground slightly.
The crowd was shocked.
Zhang Hu smacked his tongue: "Little lady is more than a mile, and she is heavy!" β
The four men were about to jump out of the ring when Lepis exclaimed, "Stay he."
e a
d see!β
The interpreter hurriedly stepped forward and stopped the four people: "Everyone, slow down! β
The four stood on the stage at a loss.
Leppis walked to the front of the barbell, rubbed some ** in the palm of his hand, held the middle of the barbell with both hands, and raised the barbell on his head with a loud shout.
The cheers were endless.
Leppis put the barbell down and looked up to the sky and laughed like a bell: "I'm told that you Chi."

The interpreter pulled his throat and translated: "Someone told me that you Chinese have kung fu, and your kung fu is very powerful. I came, I watched, and I was disappointed because I didn't see Kung Fu. All I saw was bloodless faces, like a group of sick men. Yes, hordes of sick men," pointed to the four, "just like you, you, you, and you, all are sick men." You know that a sick man can't lift a barbell. β
The audience was in an uproar.
The four of Zhang Hu's subordinates were humiliated in public, embarrassed and at a loss.
Zhang Hu yelled at them: "If you don't jump down yet, why don't you be embarrassed to stay on stage?" β
The four jumped down in a panic.
Someone pointed to the stage and reprimanded: "Lepish, what's so great about being able to lift a barbell?" On what basis to insult the Chinese? β
Everyone echoed: "Yes, why are you insulting us Chinese?" β
Leppis looked at the translator: "What a."

The interpreter turned to the crowd and shouted, "Abusive? Aren't you the sick men of East Asia? If not, why not jump in the ring and challenge me? If anyone can win against me, I will kowtow to him three times in the same way as you Chinese. If you can't win me, you deserve to be called the sick man of East Asia! β
The crowd was outraged, but no one came to power.
Leppis burst into longer, louder laughter.
Ge Li looked at Cangzhu with an angry face.
Cangzhu turned and left.
Ge Li walked out with him.
Zhang Hu clenched his teeth, his face turned purple, grabbed Shun'an and turned his head to leave. Shun An turned around too quickly and stepped on Ding Qianwen's feet.
Obviously, this foot was not lightly stepped on, Ding Qianwen screamed "ouch" and bent down.
Chen Jun was holding back his anger, and couldn't help but say that Zhao Shun'an's nose was a punch.
Zhang Hu was stunned, and when he reacted, he was about to have a seizure when he was stopped by Shun'an.
Shun An covered his bleeding nose and bowed to Ding Qianwen, who was still squatting on the ground.
Ding Qianwen stopped ouching, glanced at him, grabbed Chen Jun, and fled with a limp, leaving Shun'an, who was still standing on his waist, in place.
Zhang Hu stomped his feet and said hatefully: "Little lady is more than a mile, even stinky girls dare to play tricks!" β
Chen Jun helped Ding Qianwen out of the crowd and summoned a rickshaw.
Ding Qianwen looked at her: "Sister, do you still go to the General Chamber of Commerce?" β
Chen Jun's brows tightened: "I'm not in the mood, let's go back to school, right?" β
"I want to go home."
"Okay," Chen Jun helped her get into the car, "Sister, I also have some matter, we'll see you at school tomorrow!" β
After Ding Qianwen left, Chen Jun turned into a street.
Not far from here is her brother's martial arts hall.
Chen Jiong is not there.
Chen Jun waited until dark, and Chen Jiong still did not return. Seeing that the time for the school lights out had arrived, Chen Jun had no choice but to return to school. The next day was Monday, and Chen Jun finished his class and came to the martial arts hall again.
Chen Jiong was talking to someone about something, and when he heard his sister coming again, he hurriedly got out.
Chen Jun pursed his lips, turned his face, and ignored him.
"Hahaha," Chen Jiong glanced at her, happy, "It seems that someone is bullying Ah Mei." I guess it's not going to be that Wu Jeje, right? Don't you want to be a sister looking for a door-to-door challenge and lose the battle? β
"Not really." Chen Jun was anxious, turned his head and said.
"Hey, apart from this person, who else can make my sister angry?"
"Foreigners, Leppis!" Chen Jun was indignant, "He set up a ring on Nanjing Road and scolded us Chinese as the sick man of East Asia!" Brother, can you put down other things, find a way to punish this person, and fight for us Chinese?! β
"Hehe," Chen Jiong said with a smile, "Pick up a little foreign devil, you don't need to use Brother, Brother only needs to send one person!" β
Chen Jun was pleasantly surprised: "Who is it?" β
"Sister!"
Chen Jun was anxious and angry: "Brother? β
"Let's go," Chen Jiong grabbed her waist, "Brother, I'll teach you a few tricks, and the storage will be successful!" β
Chen Jiong took Chen Jun into the newly completed martial arts arena of the martial arts hall, put on tights, and practiced actual combat. Chen Jiong knocked Chen Jun down again and again, and Chen Jun pounced again and again until she fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
"Sister?" Chen Jiong helped her up, looking concerned.
"Come again!" Chen Jun wiped his sweat, took a few breaths, and took a posture again.
"Well," Chen Jiong gave a thumbs up, "it's my sister!" β
The two practiced for a while, but Chen Jun couldn't bear it, so he poured a bowl of cold boiled water and sat there without moving.
"Ah Mei," Chen Jiong said with a smile, "Today is over, how about the Ming Dynasty come again?" β
"Brother," Chen Jun nodded and stared at him, "Sister's sullenness, you haven't said how you can get out." β
"Your tone will come out of my brother, my sister just do her own thing!" Chen Jiong said with a smile.
"Okay," Chen Jun put down the water bowl, "You can talk about Wu Jeju again, okay?" β
Chen Jiong looked at her: "What did he do?" β
"Hey, didn't you tell me to do my own thing? Let's talk about it, my business is to pull the surname Wu into the League! β
"Alas," Chen Jiong smiled bitterly, "you! "Shake your head.
"Brother, if you are asked to talk about it, you will tell it!"
"Well, which one do you want to hear?"
"Big trouble in the rice market!"
Chen Jiong frowned: "This has been said three times!" β
"Say it again. Sun Tzu said, 'Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles'. I need to know all the details so I can get the right medicine! β
Chen Jiongzheng didn't get rid of it, Ren Bingqi arrived, beckoned at the door, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Shi, everyone is here, waiting for you!" β
"Sister," Chen Jiong was relieved, "There's a big matter, you go back to school first, Brother has to go to an emergency meeting, and the matter of rice will be changed to Chenguang!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and strode out.
Chen Jiong and Ren Bingqi hurriedly walked into a secret room, where there were already eight people waiting, all of whom were core members of the Alliance.
On the table were several newspapers, with pictures of Leppis and the barbell, and a banner with the words "The Sick Man of East Asia" on them.
"Uncle Shi," Bingqi pointed to the photo, "I've seen this banner, it was newly hung up after yesterday!" β
"Got it." Chen Jiong looked calm and looked at everyone, "Comrades, it's refreshing to check below, Leppis has loved punches and feet since he was a child, and his brute strength is amazing, and he has fought many matches in the American boxing arena and won the boxing championship." Later, he somehow left the United States, traveled the world, challenged other countries, set up a fight in Mumbai, India, defeated several challengers in a row, and then went to Thailand, where he killed three Muay Thai masters and shocked Southeast Asia. Hearing that Chinese kung fu is proficient, he went to Hong Kong last month, set up a ring in Hong Kong for 10 days, and knocked out two southern boxing masters in the ring, killing one and injuring one. This person thought that China's efforts were not enough, so he left Hong Kong and came to Shanghai to challenge again. After a few days, there were many spectators, including many martial arts masters, and several martial arts halls were eager to try, but so far no one has responded. This person became more and more arrogant, not only made insulting remarks, but also hung up banners, intending to anger the Chinese people, defeat Chinese kung fu in China, and make a windfall by the way while becoming famous in the world! β
A member with a mustache sitting in the middle asked puzzledly, "Can you make a fortune by setting up a ring?" β
"Yes. There are two ways for him to make money, one is to receive an honorarium from a foreign company, and the other is to receive a share of the tickets. β
"Why did the foreigners pay him?"
"There is also competition between foreign companies. This time, he came and was invited by the British Daohong Foreign Company. Daohong & Co. has just been established and is a new face in Shanghai. The foreign bank deliberately hyped up the matter in order to enhance its popularity and expand its influence. β
"Grandma's," Bingqi slammed his fist on the case, "If we say that, we can't be fooled!" Don't hide it from my uncle, I've been holding my breath for a few days, and I'm thinking about asking a master to teach him a lesson. β
Chen Jiong waved his hand vigorously: "On the contrary, we want to fall for this!" β
The crowd was puzzled.
"Judging from the current general trend, the Qing Dynasty will not be dead, and the success of the revolution is just around the corner. As you have all seen, the Liberation Association has been operating in Shanghai for many years, with a large number of people and great influence, while our alliance is still shallow and cannot be matched for the time being. If we want to overpower the Restoration Society in momentum, we must make a surprise move. Send a pillow when you doze off, this foreign devil comes just right, we can use this person to reverse hype! β
The bearded member asked, "How can it be hype?" β
"Didn't we build this martial arts hall? He scolded us as the sick man of East Asia, so we challenged him in the name of this museum, and at the same time, we used newspapers and periodicals to promote Chinese martial arts, promote the prestige of our Chinese country, strengthen our body, and boost the spirit of our people. This is a patriotic move, and the government does not want to prohibit it in name. Therefore, I advocated cooperating with Leppis and playing this game with him. β
Everyone looked at each other.
The Bazihu member was worried: "This is playing with life, not playing a game." That guy has a lot of strength, unless Li Yuanba is reincarnated, otherwise, no one can stop him! β
"I don't see it that way." Chen Jiong retorted, "This person is just a brute bull, with the breadth of China and the profundity of Chinese martial arts, I believe that there will be barberry masters!" β
Bingqi nodded: "Uncle Shi, this thing is done!" β
The eight-character Hu member was anxious: "Mr. Chen? β
Other members also expressed mixed anxieties.
"Okay," Chen Jiong waved his hand, "This matter will be put on hold for the time being, and we will make a decision when we find someone to control the enemy." Meeting! β
The crowd dispersed.
Chen Jiong took out a secret letter and handed it to Ren Bingqi: "Bingqi, you give this letter to the eldest lady." β
Bingqi frowned: "The teacher is too old, this..."
"Where do you want to go?" Chen Jiong glanced at him, "I'm asking Shi Tai to recommend a master." In the Chinese martial arts world, there is no teacher who doesn't know the depth of kung fu! β
In one day, no less than 300 people signed up to join the general association of commerce, and the tables were piled up with various forms and materials, and the jerk was busy from morning to dark, and it was still not completely sorted out.
Jerk was busy at work, and there was a knock on the door.
Jeju opened the door, and when he saw that it was Zhendong, he was shocked: "Uncle Ma? β
Zhendong strode in and sat on the sofa: "I know you're there." Pour the wine! β
Jerk brought a glass of hot water: "No wine, only a glass of boiled water!" β
Zhendong took out the wine gourd from the back of his buttocks, stuffed it into his mouth, drank it in a gulp, and wiped his lips: "I know you don't, Uncle Ma has already prepared it." β
"Look at your face, it's done!"
"The old horse is out of the hoof, can there be anything that can't be done?" Zhendong beckoned, "Come here!" β
Jerk over.
Zhendong lowered his voice thoughtfully: "The old widow let Uncle Ma get it done!" β
"Tell me quickly, how can Uncle Ma get him?"
"Hehehe, that's how Uncle Ma got him!" Ma Zhendong narrowed his eyes, took a sip, pursed his mouth, took another sip, and sipped his mouth again.
"Drink with him?"
Zhendong glared: "Fight for wine? Is he worthy? "Take another sip," Uncle Ma found Ah Xiang as a nursery, and said that his place was useless, first bid 200,000 yuan, then bid 300,000 yuan, and did not exceed 350,000 yuan. β
"What do you mean by the barley being sold?"
"Hahaha," Zhendong was happy, "it just can't be done." Uncle Ma saw that the fire was coming, so he went out of the horse, and saw that the guy couldn't hold his breath, his eyes were uncertain, his breath was uneven, and he was in a hurry to wait for the shipment. He stretched out six fingers to Uncle Ma, and Uncle Ma gave him four fingers back, and then he squinted his eyes and drank like this. Before he finished drinking half of the gourd, he couldn't stand it anymore and stretched out five fingers. Uncle Ma put away the gourd, patted his ass and left, he chased it out, stretched out his other hand, bent two fingers, I bent three fingers, he bit his teeth, and the deal! β
"How many are you bending?"
"Four hundred and fifty thousand!"
Jeju pondered for a long time: "Uncle Ma, you go again, give him 500,000!" β
"Huh?" Zhendong was stunned.
"But ask him to agree to one condition!"
"On what terms?"
"We paid 50,000 taels in advance, and asked him to go through the transfer procedures first, and the other 450,000 taels, we will pay within a month!"
"This..."
"All the conditions can be written in the contract, we will write out the IOU separately, go to the notary office to notarize, if the balance cannot be paid within a month, he will get 50,000 taels in vain, and the house will still be transferred to him!"
"That's... cheap him!"
"Uncle Ma, this house is worth 500,000!"
"Okay. Good things should not be rushed, Uncle Ma will boil him for a few days first, lest he be disadvantaged! β
It's another weekend, and Nanjing Road is bustling and bustling.
In the Yifeng Tea Ceremony, Shun'an and Zhang Hu sat by the window, each with a tea cup in front of them.
Shun An's eyes closed slightly, and he had obviously been in one position for a long time.
"Brother," Zhang Hu was anxious, "what are you thinking about?" β
Shun'an didn't move, his hand reached into the bag, took out a piece of paper and threw it on several cases.
Zhang Hu picked it up, glanced at it, threw it on the case, and said with a smile: "Bragging, what's so good-looking?" β
"I want to get involved."
"What?" Zhang Hu held back his smile and stared at him.
"I still want to pull Brother Zhang."
Zhang Hu was shocked, for a long time, and laughed: "Brother can't be serious, right?" β
"Seriously."
"You asked Brother Zhang to join his Wu Jeju stock?"
"Yes."
"You..."
"Brother Zhang," Shun An opened his eyes and stared at him, "Brother asks you, please tell the truth." β
"Just ask."
"Why are you taking your brothers to rush around, fighting and killing?"
"Righteous anger." Zhang Hu didn't think twice.
Shun An laughed and shook his head slightly: "If it's just for righteousness, in all fairness, how many brothers can be willing to die for Brother Zhang?" β
Zhang Hu was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Yes, people die for money, to put it bluntly, it's still for money!" β
"Exactly." Shun An continued, "On this beach, all kinds of people are busy and bustling, all for money. Since it's for money, Brother Zhang will talk about it, which thing is not only quick to make money, but also decent, and has the least risk? β
What Shun'an said was obviously not pornography, gambling and drugs, Zhang Hu thought for a long time and scratched his head: "You speak." β
"Open a bank." Shun An word by word.
Zhang Hu took a long breath.
"Compared to the bank, the money bank is not worth mentioning. Rubber stocks are like that, even foreign banks have gone bankrupt, but banks make money, and none of them lose! β
"Yes."
"Alas," Shun An sighed, "Speaking of which, I admire Brother Jerk from the bottom of my heart." Brother Jerk is a businessman by nature, and whatever he wants to do, nothing will fail. None of the things he opposed succeeded! β
"You're right," Zhang Hu responded, "but the two of us are rushing, and we can't pee in a pot!" He ruined my body, I burned his house, and I accidentally made a grudge against my father, according to their Confucian scholars. β
"These old things, Brother Zhang just have to rest assured."
"Why?"
"Whether Brother Zhang set the fire or not, Brother Jerk didn't catch it, and he didn't see it, it was a headless case. Don't hide it from Brother Zhang, after the fire, Jeju interrogated me, and let me prevaricate in a few words. Brother Zhang could see that he didn't have the slightest suspicion, otherwise, according to his temper, he would have been desperate to find Brother Zhang! β
"Hmph, what can I do if I'm suspicious?" Zhang Hu snorted in his nostrils, "It's really annoying Brother Zhang, see if you don't let him go again!" β
"Brother Zhang, businessmen don't talk about anger, they only talk about the present. No matter which pot you pee into, it doesn't matter, and the money doesn't hurt people, doesn't it? The notice said that one thousand taels per share, we can throw away all the remaining tobacco and soil, and participate in one hundred shares, how about it? β
Before Zhang Hu could answer, there was a commotion outside, and a four-seated luxury carriage swaggered through the street and met another two-horse carriage that came in front of him.
The street is narrow, and the two drivers get out of the car to discuss how to meet the car.
The curtains of the troika were lifted, and a young girl stuck her head out of the window, anxiously looking.
Shun Anshun looked at it and froze.
That girl was none other than Ding Qianwen, who was trampled on by him that day.
"What's the fuss, brother? I haven't seen it..."
The two stared at her.
The two carriages missed and went their separate ways.
Shun An stared in the direction of the troika for a long time, until it was submerged in the corner.
"Brother," Zhang Hu sneered, "Don't you like this little lady, right?" β
"Tsk," Shun An retracted his gaze, "four luxury cars, all white horses." Brother Zhang, ask who's home. β
Zhang Hu high-fived, and a waiter trotted over.
Zhang Hu stared at the waiter: "The four-car just now, what kind of car is it?" β
"Returning to Master Zhang, it is Mrs. Ding Furu's special driver."
Shun An was shocked and lowered his voice: "Is that little lady Mrs. Ru?" β
"How can you?" The waiter smiled, "She is Mrs. Ru's daughter, the daughter of Ding's house." However, Mrs. Ru sat in the car. β
"Hey, she's not in the car, how can you know?" Zhang Hu asked.
"For example, on the fifteenth day of every month, Mrs. will go to Jing'an Temple to make incense, rain or shine, and every time she passes by this road, the small one is familiar with it. Today is exactly fifteen, and I will go to incense again. β
Shun An took a deep breath.
"Good news," Zhu Heyi smiled bitterly and handed a form to Jerk, "There are two people who have subscribed for bank shares, fifty shares each, a total of 100,000 taels!" β
Jeju took it, glanced at it, and was shocked: "Fu Xiaodi? Zhang Hu? β
"Yes." Heyi let out another wry smile, "Those who should claim it shrank their heads, people like Zhang Hu and Fu Xiaodi, but... He shook his head repeatedly.
"Strange," Jerk said half-to himself, "where did they get a lot of yodians?" β
"What's so strange?" Zhu Heyi responded, "Zhang Hu is a person from the Wang Mansion, relying on the power of Inspector Wang, black and white, listening to people, not long ago he made a windfall. As for Fu Xiaodi, I've always suspected that he has some entanglement with McGee, and maybe he's getting some bargain from McGee! β
"I do remember something." Jeju moved in his heart, "Before and after the rubber crash, Xiaodi disappeared for three days, and he has been unstable since returning home. Uncle Lu asked him where he went, and he said that he was kidnapped by McGee and locked up in the dark room for three days. Uncle Lu urgently needed 100,000 taels of silver to save the victim, so he made an idea, he almost subconsciously touched the pocket of his underwear, but he didn't take anything out. Later, under the pretext of raising money for Uncle Lu, he never came back, and later, he...
"There's something I haven't told you yet." Zhu Heyi directly broke it, "The person who took Junyi's family property away is Fu Xiaodi." β
Wu Tingju gave a wry smile: "I know." β
"If that's the case, I'll just say it. I heard that Fu Xiaodi and you are good friends, I won't tell you, I didn't like this person, one is that he is flamboyant and his eyes are not right, and the other is that he is always mixed with a hooligan like Zhang Hu. Fish looking for fish, shrimp looking for shrimp, they are the raccoon dogs. β
Jerk bit his lip tightly, his brow furrowed.
"Jerk, since ancient times, there are two ways of good and evil. Banking affairs should not be mixed. I mean, we can't give them equity. The money is not enough, and the regeneration method, no matter how difficult it is for us, it is not bad for the 100,000 taels. β
"Uncle Zhu," Jeju replied, "Since we are imitating foreigners to set up a bank, we must speak by the system like foreigners, and we cannot judge by likes and dislikes." The forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, but the system is just. No matter who we are, as long as we obey the system, we must not develop a discriminating mind. Procedurally speaking, we raised the principal through the Chamber of Commerce, and the two of them are both members and non-voting directors, and they should raise shares to purchase shares, which is reasonable and legal, and we have no right to refuse. Besides, when everyone shrank their heads, the two of them dared to spend real money to buy equity, which is confidence in our bank, which is bold. As for what the two of them have in mind and where their principal comes from, we have no reason to ask. β
"Yes." Heyi thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "The two of them participated in the Chamber of Commerce and attended the board of directors, which is in line with the constitution of the Chamber of Commerce, and Uncle Zhu is also staring." Jerk, you can see more than Uncle Zhu and think far. It's up to you. As he spoke, he took out a check from his pocket, "The money has been loaned, 50,000 taels, you take it here." β
He raised his hands to take it and arched his hand: "Uncle Xie Zhu!" β
In the Qingxuguan meditation room, Old Man Shen and Cangzhu sat opposite each other, and there were letters of help sent by Chen Jiong on several cases.
"I went to see it yesterday," Old Man Shen looked at Cangzhu, "Yanglux practices hard skills, not outside." β
"Yes." Cangzhu answered.
"The softest in the world, the strongest in the world, the so-called soft can overcome rigidity, quiet can overcome impetuosity, and females can control males. If you fight, you have two original kung fu to ensure the chance of winning, one is Tai Chi Shadow Gong, the other is the round fist, retreat can be quiet, advance can be defeated. β
"If you don't send your fist, you will die."
"Alas," Old Man Shen stared for a long time and sighed, "Take it." Yingyi twice used the poisonous opium as a disaster for China, burning the Old Summer Palace, and I don't know how many lives were taken by the people. Since this person doesn't know what to do and what he does, he comes to the door to fight, and he is so arrogant and arrogant, and he writes in the ring that he is exempt from responsibility for death and injury, so let him atone for his countrymen. β
"It's good, it's just..."
"You speak."
"The fifth uncle agreed to Chen Jiong's request, but in addition, does it have any other meaning?"
"Cangzhu," Old Man Shen said earnestly, "Fifth Uncle knows that you have returned to the Great Dao and will not fight for the world." Isn't the fifth uncle? However, as a relict of the kingdom of heaven, how can he be at peace in this chaotic world? The martyrs' ambitions have not been paid so far; The blood stain of the martyrs has not dried up so far; The long-cherished wish of the martyrs, so far, alas, not much to say. The fifth uncle is old and has the heart and ears of a martyr. β
Cangzhu moved: "Fifth uncle..."
"Cangzhu, the Manchurians have been in charge of the Central Plains for hundreds of spring and autumn periods, and the number of qi is exhausted. The country cannot be left without a day. The Qing Dynasty has exhausted its energy, and when a new dynasty replaces it, this is also our unfinished business. I have watched Yixian for many years, this person is broad-minded, and his thoughts are quite far-reaching, although his vision of the Republic of China is very different from what I want in heaven, but it is not without compatibility, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. If it is not surprising, Mr. Sun's great cause of the Republic of China may come to fruition. In view of this, the fifth uncle acquiesced to the apprentices to assist Mr. Sun, including Chen Jiong. β
"Not long ago, Mr. Song, Chen Zhen and others established the Central Alliance, intending to raise righteousness along the Yangtze River. Big things are coming, and thousands of things still need to be planned, how can Chen Jiong have the spare strength to compete with this brute force? β
"Hehehe," Old Man Shen said with a hearty smile, "This is exactly what Chen Jiong excels at." The righteousness will be lifted, there are thousands of things, there are many chaos, Chen Jiong brought out this brute force, which can be said to sort out the messy head, and it has the effect of lifting weights as lightly. Think about it. β
Cangzhu suddenly brightened up, and arched his hand and responded: "Cangzhu obeys the orders of the fifth uncle. β
On the night when Jerk handed over 50,000 taels of silver to Zhendong, Ah Xiang came to the Angel Garden to spread the word that his uncle was looking for him. Jerk knew that it was McGee's house, so he bought a jar of daughter red and hugged Zhendong's attic with great interest.
It was Ah Xiang who opened the door. Jeju handed the wine jar to Ah Xiang, inspected the room, and saw that the table was empty, Zhendong sat on the bamboo chair next to the table with a depressed face, and only raised his hand to point to a chair opposite.
Jeju's heart sank, sat down, and stared at Zhendong: "Uncle Ma? β
"It's called Uncle!" Ma Zhendong corrected.
"Uncle?" Jeju was obviously not on the salutation, staring at him and asking.
"Alasβ" Zhendong gave a long sigh and shook his head exaggeratedly.
Jeju smiled bitterly: "He refuses to sell?" β
"Alasβ" Zhendong let out a long sigh again, "Your uncle has traveled from south to north, and he has seen a lot of the world, and he has never met anyone more refined than this Oriental Yankee!" β
Jerk your brow furrowed.
"Little mother, doing business with such a person, my uncle has to live a few days less!"
"How can he speak?"
"That's a lot of talking!" Zhendong suddenly came to his senses, rolled up his sleeves, and slapped his slap on the table exaggeratedly, "I slapped the 50,000 taels of checks on his table, and the two little eyeballs of the Oriental immediately burst out. When I told him the conditions, he was first surprised, then hesitated, and then shook his head. β
"Why did he shake his head?"
"I don't think there's a lot of money! I was helpless, I stretched out one finger, he didn't even think about it, he stretched out five fingers, I stretched out two fingers, he retracted one finger, I stretched out three fingers, he closed his eyes, thought about it, thought about it for at least three quarters of an hour! β
"Uncle, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing?"
"Let's talk about business! I stretched out one finger to add 10,000 taels to him, he stretched out five fingers to add 50,000 taels, I stretched out two fingers to add 20,000, and he took a step back and retracted one! β
"You stretched out three fingers instead, why didn't he refuse?"
"Uncle, why Chenguang said he refused?"
Jeju looked surprised: "Uncle Ma, you're done!" β
"Uncle Ma's hooves, can you do it?" Zhendong snapped out the contract, notarial deed, title deed, house deed and related transfer procedures, "You kid open your eyes and see, all the procedures are here, a total of 480,000 yuan, saving you 20,000 yuan." 50,000 is an advance payment, and the balance will be paid in full within 30 days! When the matter was done, the Oriental guy was grateful, and even said a few words to be embarrassed, and gave me a jar of old Oriental wine, saying that it was made by his mother! He looked at Ah Xiang again, "Ah Xiang, put your daughter Hong aside and drink your shopkeeper's old Oriental wine!" β
"Great!" Ah Xiang responded, took out a jar of Oriental sake, and as if playing a trick, he filled the table with dishes and drinking utensils.
"Hehehe," jerk was overjoyed, looked through the materials, and said with a smile, "Uncle Ma, you really have it!" Save 20,000 yuan, and when the bank is built, you will be Uncle Ma's principal! β
"Hey, if you say this, Ah Xiang is indispensable, give him 10,000!"
"Okay."
"Good shopkeeper," Ah Xiang said while pouring wine, "Ah Xiang doesn't smoke, drink, prostitute or gamble, you give me 10,000 yuan, let me spend it?" β
"Hahahaha," Zhendong burst out with a long laugh, "You kid will jump into the Huangpu River before dawn!" β
"Huh, why?"
"Don't smoke, don't drink, don't prostitute or gamble, what are you going to do?"
Everyone laughed.
The next morning, Jerk went straight to HSBC and put the full set of property rights procedures of Mackay & Co. in front of Charlie.
Charlie inspected it in detail and looked up at Jerk: "Mr. Wu, how much do you want to borrow?" β
"Just use this house as collateral, you can borrow as much as you can!" Jerk smiled faintly and pointed to the pile of materials.
"OK," Charlie put away, "I'll have the appraisal company give you the appraisal report." β
"Mr. Charlie, can this be loaned within twenty days?"
"It should work. I'll be as soon as possible, good luck! β
Jerk arched his hand: "Three grams of oil McMike!" β
At the same time that Wu Tingju was triumphant in his banking career, Fu Shunan also got some information about Ding Qianwen from Zhang Hu's mouth.
"Brother Zhang is a knife in both ribs!" Zhang Hu said with a smile, "In order to find out that girl, Zhang Hu begged his wife to make an appointment with the car manager of Ding's house, accompany them to play cards for three nights, and lose three hundred taels. β
"Brother Zhang," Shun'an arched his hand, "these three hundred taels are recorded in Xiaodi's account." β
"you!" Zhang Hu glanced at him, "Who do you think of Brother Zhang, even let people pay for the gambling money?" Let me tell you, Lord Ding has a total of two wives, three rooms such as Mrs., that is, aunts, a total of five sons and seven young ladies. The first lady has long since passed away, and the second lady is the niece of Li Zhongtang of the former dynasty, Li Shi, who has been in charge of Tai Kee for many years, but is now replaced by Ru Lady Liu. The little lady who made her brother step on her feet was Mrs. Liu's only daughter, Fifth Miss Ding Qianwen! β
Shun An took a long breath.
"This Liu is very good, a few years ago, Lord Ding was assassinated in the Qian Ye Gong Office, and it was the Liu family who blocked the flying knife for him. Liu was sent to the Westerner Hospital by Lord Ding, and it took several days of rescue before he could pick up a big life. Lord Ding owes the Liu family a life, and since then he has spoiled her, and the affairs of the Ding family, inside and out, have also been handed over to her for adjudication! β
Shun An took another long breath.
"Listening to my wife, I treat these five young ladies like a pearl in my hand, and Master Ding is also pampered in every way. The other ladies in Ding Mansion are all wrapped in fragrant feet, but she is the only one who puts Tianzu. Other ladies in the Ding Mansion are not allowed to leave the house, but she is the only one who can enter and leave freely, and she is still studying in the girls' middle school! β
"What girl?"
"Zhenhua Girls' High School."
"Ugh." Shun An let out a long sigh and lowered his head.
"What do you sigh about, brother?"
"No matter how bright the flowers are, they are also people's, and it is not our turn."
"Brother," Zhang Hu smiled, "the wheel is not on the wheel, how can you know if you don't give it a try?" β
Shun An looked at him.
"Don't hide it from my brother, after playing cards, Brother Zhang didn't sleep well in the middle of the night, thinking about it, I really think this is a good move!"
"What's a good move?"
"Help my brother to go to the Ding family's yamen! What bank is not a bank, in Shanghai, except for the foreigner bank, what can catch up with Lord Ding's Huitong Bank? β
Shun'an's eyes widened: "How can you be a good way?" β
"Get Miss Ding! As long as the brother gets this girl, everything will be Oukai! β
"Just me?" Shun An smiled bitterly and pointed to his head, "Brother Lose can figure it out!" In Shanghai, when how many sons and brothers compete to worship under her pomegranate skirt, when how many dignitaries and nobles want to climb this high branch! After thinking for a while, he smiled bitterly again and shook his head, "Brother Zhang, why should I talk about it?" β
"Brother, think about it," Zhang Hu gathered his mind and was serious, "How did you get Miss Lu?" Leaned over and squeezed his hand, "Brother, as long as you have a heart, there is nothing you can't do!" β
"How can you do it?"
"I have a plan in mind." Zhang Hu whispered in his ear.
"What?" Shun An was shocked, "You let me bet... β
"Exactly. If Madame has this hobby, as long as you get her at the poker table, anything can be discussed! β
Shun An shook his head again and again: "If it doesn't work, it won't work, this won't work!" β
"Why?"
"I..." β
"No prostitution, no drugs, no gambling, isn't it?" Zhang Hu smiled coldly, "Dare to ask my brother, the first two are not, which one does my brother keep?" Have you never been to the church, or have you never sold tobacco? β
Shun'an's face turned red, and he said stiffly: "It's not Brother Zhang, you..."
"Okay, okay, it's all Brother Zhang's!" Zhang Hu was half laughing, half instigating, "However, if there is one, there will be two, and if there is two, there will be three and four." Since brothers one and two are sufficient, why bother with these three? β
"I can't play cards!"
"Hehehe, it's not that hard. From now on, you and I will not go to the hall, Brother Zhang will teach you a few tricks. According to the potential of the brothers, within half a month, they will be able to become a teacher! If Mrs. thinks of herself quite highly, in fact, her card skills are not good. As for winning more and losing less at the poker table, it's because everyone is letting her! β
Shun An bit his lip for a while, almost muttering: "Okay, just brother!" β
A notice was posted outside the main entrance of the Zhenhua Martial Arts Hall, facing the street, and a group of people gathered around the notice to watch.
A literate person chanted aloud: "I Zhenhua Martial Arts Hall aims to strengthen the physique of the Chinese people, cheer up the spirit of the Chinese people, practice martial arts to strengthen the body, and prolong life." Those who voluntarily enter our martial arts hall to practice martial arts and are admitted will be exempted from tuition fees, including food and accommodation. Those who perform well and succeed in their studies will be rewarded with three pieces of Yangdian every month..."
Many strong men did not finish listening, and people had already walked into the door.
In the courtyard of the martial arts hall, a large group of young and strong men stood in two rows shirtless.
Ren Bingqi patted this and looked at that, turned around a lot, returned to the front of the team, and shouted loudly: "Heroes, are you all willing to come to our museum to sign up for martial arts?" β
Everyone said in unison: "Yes!" β
"Our museum only accepts bloody heroes who are physically strong, ambitious in all directions, and want to be heroes, who is as timid as a mouse," Ren Bingqi pointed to the door, "Please walk out of this gate immediately!" β
Not a single person walked out.
"Good!" Ren Bingqi waved his hand, "It seems that you are all good men." However, only blood is useless, whether you can become an official student of our hall depends on whether you have the ability. Everyone, please do as I do. "Anyone who lies down within an hour, please go out on your own." He looked at the watch on his wrist again, "One, two, three, let's go!" β
Everyone swayed and squatted.
A person walked in according to the door, it was Cangzhu, dressed in Taoist clothes, and he looked like a wandering Taoist.
Bingqi greeted: "You are..." looked at him.
Cangzhu arched his hand: "It was the eldest lady who ordered me to come!" β
Hearing the word "eldest lady", Bingqi hurriedly arched his hand: "Master, please!" β
Ren Bingqi led Cangzhu straight into the backyard and into Chen Jiong's office.
Chen Jiong was in a meeting with several people in long shirts.
"Uncle Shi," Ren Bingqi looked excited, "The master recommended by Taishi Tai has arrived!" β
Seeing Cangzhu's ordinary clothes and politeness, everyone present was shocked.
Chen Jiong squinted his eyes and looked Cangzhu up and down, but he couldn't see any signs of a master.
Chen Jiong hesitated, slowly stretched out his hand, and the other party also stretched out. The two held it.
Cangzhu's hand was as soft as a boneless, Chen Jiong strengthened, and the other party did not hold it back. Chen Jiong worked harder, but the other party was still soft, although he didn't cry out for pain, but he didn't have a trace of counterpower.
Chen Jiong couldn't bear to exert any more force, let go and asked, "Sir, your surname?" β
"Fly on the grass." Cangzhu replied lightly.
Everyone looked at each other.
"Flying on the grass?" Chen Jiong asked again, "Is it Mr.'s nickname?" β
Cangzhu smiled and didn't respond again.
"Sir, do you know what's going on?"
Cangzhu nodded.
"Dare to ask sir, but Mrs. Shi invited you..."
Cangzhu arched his hand: "Coats dare not be!" β
Chen Jiong took a long breath, took a few steps back with a puzzled face, pulled over a stool, and was about to give up his seat, when Chen Jun, who was sweating profusely and wearing a tight suit, rushed in from the practice room like a whirlwind.
Chen Jun asked anxiously: "Brother, it is said that a master is coming, what about the people?" β
Chen Jiong had an idea and pointed to Cangzhu: "This gentleman is!" β
Chen Jun turned to look at Cangzhu and was dumbfounded: "Just you?" β
Cangzhu smiled at her.
"Hahahaha," Chen Jun laughed a few times, "I said master, your figure, I'm afraid that a gust of wind will blow away!" β
"Can you scratch it off, you can try!"
Chen Jun's eyes widened: "Yo ho! How can I try it? β
"I'm standing here, and if Miss can move me a bit, I'll win."
"You... Where is Chen Jun willing to believe, he has enough strength and wants to push, but when he saw that Cangzhu was not moving, he was anxious, "Hurry up, set up a good posture!" β
Cangzhu smiled, still not moving: "Come on." β
Chen Jun slammed into it, but he took a few steps back and almost fell. Chen Jun was in a hurry, and rushed up several times in a row, trying to figure it out, but he didn't move the pillar at all.
Chen Jiong was stunned: "Sir, can I try?" β
"Yes." Cangzhu replied casually.
Chen Jiong stepped forward, and Cangzhu moved his feet slightly to tie up his posture.
Chen Jiong grabbed Cangzhu's arm, pulled and pushed the top arch, and Cangzhu stood majestically.
Everyone was amazed.
"Real people don't show their faces, and Mr. is also!" Chen Jiong was sincerely impressed and arched his hand, "I have seen Mr. Chen Jiong in Xia!" He also pointed to Chen Jun, "In the lower house, I am so presumptuous, please forgive me!" β
Cangzhu returned the salute: "Grass Flying has seen Mr. Chen, I have seen Miss Chen!" Then he said to the people, "I have seen you!" β
"Sir, your name is Grass Flying?" Chen Jun was curious.
"Yes."
"Then, Mr. will be able to fly!"
Before Chen Jun's words fell, Cangzhu's body was vertical, and the person was already bounced on the beam, and then floated down like a fallen leaf, his face did not change, and everyone was stunned.
Chen Jun was in a big suit, his eyes rolled, and he fell to his knees: "Mr. Fei, the little woman has a request!" β
"Miss, please speak."
"The little woman is willing to worship Mr. as a teacher, and beg Mr. to accept the apprentice!"
"Miss, please."
"If the gentleman doesn't agree, the little girl won't get up."
"That'sβI promise!"
Chen Jun bowed: "Master is above, please accept the disciple's worship!" β
Everyone laughed.
Cangzhu showed his face, which was regarded as a report, and when he saw that everyone was busy, he said that there was something to do, and got up to leave. Chen Jiong and Ren Bingqi sent out the gate, and when they returned, they saw that there were only three people left in the courtyard, and they were all sweating profusely, and they didn't seem to be able to hold on.
Ren Bingqi looked depressed and pointed at them: "Uncle Shi, there have been three batches of falls, and none of them have been completed!" β
"Lower the standard and take everything you can!" Chen Jiong commanded.
"What?" Bingqi was anxious.
Chen Jiong pointed to the venue: "In that position, you squat for me for an hour to try!" β
Bingqi is energetic: "Squat and squat!" β
Bingqi was about to squat, Chen Jiongbai glanced at him, pointed to the backyard, and strode over.
Bingqi followed him back to the backyard and came to the office, where the three people who had been meeting stood up to greet each other, one wearing a long shirt and the other two wearing suits.
Chen Jiong handed a document written in Chinese and English to Ren Bingqi, and pointed to the one wearing a long shirt: "Bingqi, this is Liu Translator, you take him to a foreign bank and give a war letter to Lepish!" β
"Good!" Ren Bingqi took the document and replied loudly.
"Tell Lepis that if he accepts the battle, he must sign a life and death contract, and it will be signed on the spot, when all the spectators are interviewed!"
"Uncle Shi," Ren Bingqi hesitated, "There is no responsibility for the death or injury, the foreigner has already written it on the cards in the ring!" β
"Write clearly, sign and sign! By signing the contract on the spot, you can overwhelm the other party in momentum, and at the same time show the people that this is a battle of life and death, and a great decisive battle related to the honor of the Chinese nation! β
Ren Bingqi stood up, and his voice was loud: "Yes!" β
"Go ahead."
Ren Bingqi took the battle book and hurriedly walked out with Liu Yiyi.
Chen Jun turned to Chen Jiong: "Yang Laipi swings in the ring, we should be a challenge!" β
"It's a battle!" Chen Jiong's tone was firm, "Lepis is swinging to challenge Chinese martial arts, and I, the first director of the Zhenhua Martial Arts Gym, Cao Shangfei, is representing the Chinese martial arts community to fight against Western boxers, so he is a challenge, we are a fight, and this relationship cannot be reversed." Then he turned to the two leaders of the League in suits, "You two are responsible for contacting the newspapers and publicizing the matter." Remember, no one should be left behind! As he spoke, he took out two envelopes, "There are two thousand yuan in this, you take them all, spend them all, and use them as the pen polishing fees for various newspapers and magic pens!" β
The two took it and nodded solemnly.
"Remember," Chen Jiong advised, "I instruct reporters not only to publicize the martial arts competition, but also to take this opportunity to publicize our alliance and our Zhenhua martial arts hall, and to organize patriotic youths and patriotic scholars to criticize and write, and the bigger the momentum, the better!" The foreigners do not regard us Chinese as human beings and have bullied us for decades, and we must take advantage of this opportunity to propagate patriotism and hatred of foreigners, and escalate this martial arts contest to the height of safeguarding the dignity of the Chinese nation. At the same time, it is necessary to organize and contact various schools to get students moving! Students are the core force of us to smash the old world and play a new China! β
The two nodded.
Chen Jiong pointed at Chen Jun: "This is Comrade Chen Jun, who can represent me." No matter what kind of incident you encounter, you can contact Comrade Chen Jun directly! If there is a shortfall in funding, she will coordinate it. β
The two of them bowed their hands to Chen Jun.
Chen Jun stretched out his hand and shook hands with the two of them one by one.
In the next few days, all the newsboys on Shencheng Street were busy, all holding newspapers and periodicals, and shouting around: "Read the newspaper and read the newspaper, Chinese kung fu should fight Western boxing; Read the newspaper, read the newspaper, fly on the grass to fight the big barbell, set up life and death documents, and the decisive battle between China and foreign ancient and modern..."
Zhang Hu has always said that he will do it, and he put it into practice on the night when he made a big decision, set up a mahjong table in Shun'an's house, and taught Shun'an how to play cards hand in hand.
Shun'an was really concerned, and he didn't go out for a few days, until he was dizzy and dizzy, but he still didn't stop.
On the third day, Ah Huang walked in with a stack of newspapers: "Brother Zhang, look, big news!" β
Zhang Hu and Shun An picked up the newspaper and looked.
"Little Niang Bili," Zhang Hu couldn't help but rub his hands excitedly, "Fly on the grass to fight Lepis and sign a life and death contract, the competition venue is set at the International Racecourse, and the ticket is ten yuan!" Hahaha, I knew someone was going to do this! Jie big country, many people, can there be a master? β
"Yes." Shun An responded.
"Little Niang Bili, watch me make a trick, let Nalaipis have a good understanding of Chinese martial arts!"
"Brother Zhang," Shun An smiled, "People compete in martial arts, you make a trick, isn't it funny?" β
"Huh," Zhang Hu's eyes widened, "Brother doesn't want me to make a trick?" β
"Hahaha, it's not that you won't let it, it's... If you don't play, how can you use it?"
Zhang Hu beckoned: "Come here!" β
Shun An leaned over, and Zhang Hu whispered in his ear.
Shun An took a long breath and sighed in admiration: "Brother Zhang, you really have you!" β
"Grandma's old ** mile," Zhang Hu smiled evilly, "No need for this trick, my sulking will have no source!" β
At the same time, on the desktop of Chen Jiong's office in Zhenhua Martial Arts Hall, there were more newspapers, and Chen Jiong and others were reading one in their hands.
Chen Jun rushed in like a whirlwind with a few new newspapers, panting and said, "Brother, look! β
Chen Jiong looked at the newspaper, and there was a picture printed on it, a big sign, which read: "Chinese and dogs are not allowed to enter!" β
"Good!" Chen Jiong punched several cases, "Where is this brand?" β
"It's in the Bund Huangpu Park, and I secretly photographed it with a reporter from "Declaration". Chen Jun paused for a moment and lowered his voice, "I reviewed it carefully, and the original text doesn't exactly mean this!" β
"What do you mean?"
"It's two brands, Chinese are not allowed to enter, and dogs are not allowed to enter."
"Isn't that what it means?" Chen Jiong shook several cases, "Reward that reporter and reward him with 100 yuan!" β
"Huh?" Bingqi was stunned, "One photo is a hundred oceans? β
"Brother," Chen Jun glanced at him, "as soon as this newspaper came to the market, people all went crazy. Students from several schools are marching in the streets! β
"Good job, Ah Mei, I didn't expect you to become a general!" Chen Jiong praised from the bottom of his heart.
Bingqi stuck out his tongue.
"Hehe," Chen Jun looked proud, "the fierce medicine is still to come." β
"Ah Mei," Chen Jiong took out twenty tickets, "This is the ticket for the competition, I will leave twenty for the reporters of various newspapers, and you will distribute them!" β
"Give me one more!"
"For whom?"
"Wu Jerk!"
Chen Jiong smiled and took out two of them: "You, it's okay." These are two private room tickets, one is his, and the other is to ask him to forward it to Prime Minister Zhu of the General Chamber of Commerce! β
"Okay."
"Hahahaha," Zhu Heyi was so excited that he couldn't close his mouth, "Jerk, this trick of yours is called the empty glove white wolf, if it is really done, it will create another miracle of business warfare in Shanghai!" β
"Where is the empty hand, there is already Uncle Zhu's 50,000 taels of silver as the base!"
"Taking 50,000 to Bo 500,000 is equivalent to empty-handed. If you catch a chicken, you have to throw a handful of rice! β
"Uncle Zhu, I won't tell you, this little nephew is sweating!"
"Tell me, why are you sweating?"
"Because this handful of rice belongs to Uncle Zhu, in case I miss, I'll do this..."
"Hehehe, this shop belongs to Uncle Zhu alone, the virtuous nephew can rest assured that Uncle Zhu will go there, it's a big deal that Uncle Zhu has come from scratch!"
"Thank you, Uncle Ding!" Jerk over.
"Oh, by the way, tell me about it, Zhenhua Martial Arts Hall and foreigners in the ring, how can it get bigger and bigger?"
"Uncle Zhu, how can you watch?"
"It doesn't feel like a good thing." Heyi put a pile of newspapers over, "You see, both of them have overtalked and stiffened the matter, foreigners can't lose, and Chinese people can't lose, and once the ring game starts, there can only be one winner, no matter who wins, it will always be..."
Straighten your brow.
There was footsteps in the hallway, and there was a knock on the door.
Jerk to open the door, it's the doorman.
"Assistant Wu," said the doorman, "there's a young lady looking for you!" β
"Miss? Where is it? β
"In the porter."
"Uncle Zhu," jeju smiled and waved his hand at Heyi, "You're busy, I'll take a look!" β
Jeju walked to the gatehouse, Chen Jun greeted him, and two apricot eyes stared at him.
Jerk arched his hand, and his eyes asked: "In the lower army jerk, Miss is..."
Chen Jun didn't respond, only stared at him with big eyes.
Jeju was stared at by her, and she gave her hand again: "May I ask what is the matter with Miss?" β
Chen Jun came back to his senses and smiled: "It turns out that you are Wu Jeju!" β
"It's down there. Miss is..."
"Ho, I thought Wu Jie was raising three heads and six arms, but I didn't expect it to be a white scholar!"
Jeju was amused by the word "white" and said with a smile: "Let Miss down!" β
Chen Jun stretched out his hand to shake it, took a step back, and bowed his hand.
"Huh, handy?" Chen Jun made a handshake motion, "Don't you know the handshake ceremony?" β
The jerk was embarrassing, and he barely stretched out his hand.
The two held it.
Jerk symbolically shook it lightly and let it go: "May I ask Miss Fang's name?" β
"Chen Jun!" Chen Jun pointed to his nose, "Chen Jiong is my elder brother!" β
"Ouch," Jerk was completely relaxed, with a look of surprise, "You're Chen Jun, I heard Chen Jiong talk about you early next morning," he looked at her, "Well, like, it's too similar." β
"Wu Jeju's name, as well as Wu Jeju's heroic deeds, my ears can hear calluses."
Jeju smiled awkwardly: "Sensei listen to their nonsense." β
"I call you Brother, Cheng?"
"Of course!" Jeju smiled, "You are young, do you still want to be a sister?" β
They both laughed.
"Brother Wu, I came to look for you, there is a matter." Chen Jun took out two tickets, "Brother is too busy, let me bring these two tickets, one is for Brother Yours, and the other is for Brother Zhu to pass it on!" β
"Sister Xie." Jerk took the ticket and glanced at it, "By the way, I have something to ask you." β
"What's the matter?"
Jerk shook the ticket: "That's it!" β
"Hehe, you are asking Ah Mei is the right person. However, you can't let Ah Mei be here..." Chen Jun looked at the door and grimaced.
"Hehehe," jerk smiled, "yes." Hurriedly stretched out his hand to give way, "Sister, please!" β
Chen Jun came to the jerk office, chatted a few words, jerked about the competition, including the details, and learned that the grass was promoted by a person called the eldest lady.
Hearing "Eldest Miss", Jeju felt that things were complicated, and found a reason to send Chen Jun away, so he hurried to the Angel Garden.
"Yo ho," Ge Libai glanced at him, half disgusted, "It's Assistant Wu, it seems that some Chenguang can't see people!" β
Jeju smiled apologetically, walked up to her, and whispered, "Little Lizi, there is an emergency." β
Ge Li sent more and more words: "I thought it was the assistant who took the wrong medicine and touched the wrong door, but it turned out that there was an emergency!" Tell me, what's the matter? β
"Inquire about individuals!"
"Who?"
"Fly on the grass! It's a martial artist who challenges foreign samurai! β
Ge Li smiled: "How can you think of asking me about him?" β
"You are very good at kung fu, you must know this about people. Besides, I heard that Chen Jiong was invited by Miss Tuo, and I remember that you also call yourself Miss Miss, presumably..." β
"Hey," Ge Li wondered, "Why Chenguang, did I call myself Miss to you?" β
"You told Shun An. The night Shun An and I first arrived in Shanghai, Shun An told me about you, and I knew that the eldest lady was related to you! β
"Okay, okay, I'll admit it." Ge Li tugged at the placket of his clothes, "Let's go." β
"Where?"
"Hey, don't you want to see the grass fly?"
Ge Li brought jerk to Qingxuguan.
The door is closed. The Taoist priest who guarded the door saw that it was two people, so he opened the side door.
Ge Li and the two went straight into the apse, and looked at the three people sitting under the big tree in the courtyard, the cangzhu was in the center, and the old man Shen and Ami Ah Gong were on the left and right, palming each other.
The stigma head was steaming.
Ge Li caught a glimpse, grabbed his arm, and stood still from a distance.
The three of them obviously felt it, slowly retracted their efforts, and sat quietly.
Ge Li approached with a jerk and sat down in front of Old Man Shen.
The jerk found a vacancy and sat cross-legged.
"Assistant Wu," Ge Li looked at Jejeju, "The person you want to meet is here, do you have anything to ask?" β
Jeju understood, looked at Cangzhu, and arched his hand: "Uncle Zhu!" β
Cangzhu arched his hand and replied with a smile.
"Old Grandpa," jerked to Old Man Shen, "The grandchildren are here to ask Uncle Zhu about the fight with foreigners!" β
"What do you doubt?"
"Does this ring have to be fought?"
Old Man Shen didn't answer and asked, "Do you think there's anything wrong?" β
"As far as the grandchildren know, there is a mystery in this ring match!"
"What's the mystery?"
"There are no outsiders here, so the grandchildren will tell the truth. The Zhenhua Martial Arts Hall is run by the revolutionary Chen Jiong, who has known his grandchildren for many years and has nothing to talk about. Chen Jiong is very bold and good at taking advantage of the situation. There are thousands of reasons for the rubber stock market crash, and one of the reasons is his push. This challenge to foreigners is just a chess piece played by Chen Jiong, intending to take the opportunity to provoke hatred against Huayang, disrupt the situation, and take advantage of the fire! β
"Hehe," Ge Li said with a smile, "You talk about this, the old grandfather already knows." β
Jerk was shocked, his eyes stunned.
Ge Li grimaced.
"Jerk," Old Man Shen looked at Jerk, "Have you seen "***"?" β
Jeju shook his head: "This book was originally hidden at home, but Abba didn't let me read it, saying that it was a banned book, and it was not suitable for students!" β
"Yes. It is rumored that this book was written by Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang of the Tang Dynasty, because of its prediction is extremely accurate, it is listed as a banned book by the government of previous dynasties, and it is not allowed to be published privately. The book is divided into 60 pictures, symbolizing 60 Jiazi, and each picture is accompanied by prophecies and eulogies to predict the rise and fall of future generations. β
Ge Li's eyes widened: "Old Grandpa, has this picture talked about the Qing Dynasty?" β
"Yes. The thirty-seventh image of this picture is about the current situation. β
"How can you talk about it?"
"This image is of a demon in the water, holding a human head. The proverb said: 'The Han River is vast, it is not unified and unified, the north and the south are not divided, and the heart is the same. There is also a verse at the back, saying: "The water is clear and exhausted, and the rebellion is in August, and there is no king in the sea, half fierce and half auspicious!" ββ
Jerk closed his eyes and pondered.
"Oh my God," Ge Li exclaimed, "the evil ghost in the water, hugging a person's head, how can this be solved?" β
"Since it is a heavenly opportunity, it cannot be forced." Old Man Shen responded, "However, in this regard, the evil ghost is like a barbarian, and the head of the countryman is in the water, which may deconstruct the distress of China for decades." Since the ban on smoking, foreign invasions, internal and external troubles, dire straits, and countless Chinese descendants have died in national disasters. The Qing court declined, the three religions and nine streams formed associations, the good and evil were mixed, the family and the country were chaotic, although the powerful ministers had the heart to save the country, but they had their own selfish thoughts, greedy for power and profit, and finally had no strength to return to heaven. The Qing Dynasty is over! β
Jeju took a long breath and suddenly realized: "In this way, the old grandfather helps Chen Jiong, which is the way of heaven." β
"Heaven is natural, and it is beyond the power of man. However, it is tolerable and intolerable for foreigners to take advantage of guns and cannons, divide up our land, plunder our property, humiliate our people, and damage the martial spirit of our people with opium poison! β
Jerk nodded heavily: "The juniors know, it's just..."
"You speak."
"As far as the younger generation knows, Lepis not only has amazing brute strength, but also has great kung fu, and has lost countless opponents under him. I heard Ge Li talk about Uncle Zhu, and I knew that Uncle Zhu's martial arts were strong, but in this arena, life and death were at stake, and I heard that Uncle Zhu was going to sign a life and death contract with him, and the younger generation was quite worried! β
Old Man Shen smiled: "Jerk, you only know that foreigners have King Kong Boxing, but you don't know that your Uncle Zhu has Hun Yuanyi Boxing!" β
"Oh?"
"This foreigner is Xiyi, the West is gold, and the Vajra boxing practiced is also gold; Your Uncle Zhu is an Oriental, belongs to wood, his name is Cangzhu, and he is also wood. β
Ge Li was anxious: "Jin Kemu, old grandfather!" β
"Hehehe," Old Man Shen said with a hearty smile, "Although gold is wood, wood makes fire, your Uncle Zhu's round fist is generated by the five flavors of heart fire, the more wood, the bigger the fire, and the fire is gold!" β
Amitabha folded his hands: "Amitabha! β
Listening to Old Man Shen's laughter, he saw Cangzhu's calm face, and knew that they had a chance to win, so he breathed a sigh of relief and hugged his fist at Cangzhu.
