Chapter 5

The death of Ye's wife hit Ye Shou'an, who was no longer young, he seemed to have aged ten years old overnight, originally just gray hair, after taking care of his wife's funeral, people found that he was already full of silver hair, and he couldn't find a single black hair.

Ye Guihua was sensible, and when he saw that Ye Shouan was decadent, he didn't say anything and picked up the burden of the family.

Only half of Yip's industry is also comparable to ordinary enterprises, except for Yip's shoes, Yip's hosiery and Yip's wine, which were bought out by the government, and the rest of the branches involved in various industries are operating normally. Ye Shouan acquiesced to Ye Guihua's status, briefly handed over to several managers, and then retreated to the background.

Ye Guihua, who had just turned 16, made drastic reforms as soon as he took office, and the first thing he did was to announce that the Ye family cloth industry, a subsidiary of Ye's enterprise, and Zhao's garment industry, a subsidiary of Yanzhao Industrial, drew a line and stopped cooperating. The reason is that he does not want to have anything to do with the villain Zhao Genta, the owner of Yanzhao Industrial.

It turned out that the mayor of Jiyang, Ma Jiefang, invited the business elite to a banquet that night was just a pretense, and his actual purpose was to get this group of businessmen to pay for the reconstruction of Jiyang City.

At first, he wanted to raise money from the society, but it seemed a little unrealistic to ask the people to pay money as soon as he came to power, so he could only start the idea of Jiyang businessmen. He learned through some special channels that Ye Shouan is the most wealthy among the merchants in Jiyang, not only has many industries, but also seems to have a lot of dollars in foreign banks, so he is full of hope to let Ye Shouan take a good start, at least donate a few thousand silver dollars first. But Ye Shouan didn't say anything that night, as if he was just attending an ordinary banquet, and he didn't seem to be indifferent to how Mayor Ma ordered him.

At that time, Zhao Genta, the chairman of Yanzhao Industry, was also present, and he understood Mayor Ma's intentions as soon as he heard it, he glanced at Ye Shou'an, and saw that Ye Shou'an only cared about drinking and smoking and talking to others, and he didn't take Mayor Ma's words to heart at all, and he had bad thoughts for a while.

Although Ye's enterprise and Yanzhao Industry are partners, they are also peer competitors, Yanzhao Industry has been pressed by Ye's for many years and can't turn over, colleagues talk about Ye Shou'an with admiration, Zhao Genta has long been unaccustomed to Ye Shou'an's flying and domineering and arbitrary behavior in the Jiyang Chamber of Commerce, even if he Zhao Genta is the president of the Jiyang Chamber of Commerce! No one will understand how much effort he has made to hold on to the various means of Ye's subordinate companies, and no one will envy him behind his back as he envies Ye Shou'an. He knew that all this was just because Yanzhao Industry was not as good as Ye's Enterprise. People will only remember the first, who cares about the second? And Zhao Genta got this good opportunity to let the champion not do it, how can he be willing to continue to be a role model? I heard what Mayor Ma meant, probably just wanted Ye Shouan to take the lead in donating money, Ye Shouan is not stupid, he doesn't want to donate, he remembers what Jiyang City was like when it was not destroyed by the Japanese army, and then look at the present, there are more ruins than intact houses, where is there still a little bit of the ancient capital of Yueguo? However, Mayor Ma's behavior of forcing donations today suddenly reminded him of the time when Tanakanuma went to his house late at night to force himself to persuade his business colleagues to donate materials, he hated this kind of behavior very much, it was almost like bandits!

Zhao Genta saw that Ye Shouan had no intention of donating, so he walked to Mayor Ma with a wine glass, and said loudly: "Mayor Ma deeply admires the care of the people of Jiyang City, Zhao, the reconstruction of Jiyang City is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, Zhao is a Jiyang person, and should contribute to the reconstruction of his hometown, I am willing to take the lead in bearing all the costs of building the Jiyang Municipal Government Building, and briefly express Zhao's love for the country and Jiyang." ”

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar, and everyone sighed, it was a big deal, it was really a big deal!

A few businessmen whispered: This old Zhao really went out in order to pat the Communist Party's ass.

Mayor Ma never thought that the first person to stand up and donate money was Zhao Genta, who he didn't pay much attention to, and he didn't expect Zhao Genta to directly contract his office building!

Everyone admired Zhao Genta's deep understanding of righteousness, and they couldn't help but cast their eyes on Ye Shou'an, who had been silent.

Ye Shou'an, who was holding a glass and drinking alone, carefully weighed it, he himself belonged to the capitalist in the eyes of the Communist Party, and it was a great luck that Jiyang was not defeated when it was liberated, so what does it matter if he gives up some family wealth now?

In addition to the residential houses that were blown up in Jiyang City, there are also the former residence of Xizi and several places of interest, Zhao Genta is scheming, although it will cost a lot of blood to undertake the construction of government buildings, but it can also leave a good impression on the new government, even if there is a wave of "fighting local tyrants and dividing the land" at that time, he will make himself less dangerous because of this move. How can he sacrifice his life and wealth like Ye Shou'an?

When the eyes of the merchants focused on Ye Shou'an, everyone had their own small calculations in their hearts, Ye Shou'an has always been a dominant family among the merchants of Jiyang, if this donation is not stingy, it can greatly weaken the power of the Ye family, and the rising star will have more opportunities to reshuffle the business community in Jiyang.

"Zhao shopkeeper chivalrous and courageous, such a good deed is really a model for my Jiyang businessmen! With Zhao boss Zhuyu in front, Ye is not to be outdone, although Jiyang City is not Ye's ancestral hometown, but it is the place where I took root and sprouted, Ye's feelings for Jiyang are not like my hometown but also my hometown. Money is something outside the body, I have never valued it, so what if I donate it all? However, Ye's company has many employees, and Ye's family also has wives and children who need to make ends meet, so they dare not make a big deal here. Nevertheless, Ye is willing to sell the three companies of Ye's enterprise, including shoes, hosiery and liquor, to raise money to fund the reconstruction of Jiyang, in order to express Ye's patriotism!" Ye Shouan said slowly.

Although everyone could guess that Ye Shouan would not pay less today, they didn't expect him to be so generous? The three most profitable branches of Ye's enterprise were going to be sold and donated to the government? Did he Ye Shouan drink too much? Or did everyone hear it wrong?

The people present were shocked when they heard it, and Mayor Ma and Zhao Genta were also speechless, and they donated half of their family assets at once?

"That's what I want. Mayor Ma said secretly in his heart.

"I'm afraid that the Ye family will no longer be able to compete with my Yan Zhao Industry in ten years!" Zhao Genta said in his heart, if it weren't for the occasion, he would definitely jump up and down excitedly, and he couldn't help but come to Ye Shou'an to show off his might!

"Oh, I didn't expect Mr. Ye to be so generous! I will toast you on behalf of the people of Jiyang!" Mayor Ma took the wine and clinked glasses with Ye Shou'an, drank it all, took a mouthful of food and threw it in his mouth, refreshed.

At this time, Zhao Genta said: "Boss Ye sold the enterprise to fund the reconstruction of Jiyang, although it is a great thing, but the Ye's enterprise plant is too big, New China has only been established for a short time, and there are not many people who can spend a lot of money to buy your branch of the enterprise, although the district currency and RMB are in circulation very widely, but the time required for buyers to survey the site and raise funds is afraid that three months is not enough, the construction of Jiyang City is urgent, and it cannot be delayed, it is better for the government to come forward to purchase, and the proceeds will be invested in the repair of Jiyang City, what do you think?"

"Mayor Ma, look at this, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" Ye Shouan turned to Mayor Ma, frowned, and blurted out.

"What's wrong? Anyway, it's all about rebuilding Jiyang, no matter how it goes, the result is Boss Ye's kindness. Could it be that Boss Ye can't trust the government?" Mayor Ma burped, and before he could answer, Zhao Genta took the lead and asked.

This trick can be described as really vicious, and it moved out of the mountain of the government in one sentence, blocking Ye Shou'an speechless.

Ye Shouan glanced at Zhao Genta and found that Zhao Genta was also looking at him at this time, his eyes were full of disdain, contempt and satisfaction. Ye Shouan was stunned for a second, no one had looked at him with this kind of vision for many years, it was a winner's posture.

"Where is it? The government came to implement Ye Mou's rest assured. I propose that everyone raise a glass together and wish Jiyang City better and better under the leadership of Mayor Ma!" Ye Shouan knew that it was difficult to collect the flood, and since he had promised to donate, he didn't want to talk about it anymore, and it would not be beneficial to him if he talked too much, and it didn't matter if his surname Ma was auctioned or taken for himself.

In the blink of an eye, the banquet was coming to an end, Mayor Ma went back to the guest house with the support of the secretary, and a businessman pushed the cup to change the lamp, so it was not lively, and a few people who were usually not used to seeing Ye Shouan seemed to be quite relieved tonight, and they exchanged their heads and whispered one by one.

"Ye Shouan really spent money in order to leave a good impression on the new government!"

"It's not! It may also be to spend money to keep him safe, he has made too many enemies over the years, and now he is doing this, not only can he make his previous enemies no longer hate him, but also can keep his light and raise his obscurity to die a good death, and he can also get a good reputation as a patriotic businessman, killing three birds with one stone, Ye Shouan is really scheming!"

"But even if he knows each other, he can get out of the way, otherwise in a few years, a few of our merchants will rise, and we will have to squeeze him to bankruptcy!"

Of course, there are also talking about Zhao Genta, a yin man who is really enough for his grandson, and he fell into the well, originally Ye Shou'an even if he sold a few branches, he could keep a little bit for himself if he sold more and sold less, he was good, and he actually proposed to let the government buy it out? This is too cunning, I usually look at Lao Zhao as a kind person, but I didn't expect it to be really bad!

After Ye's wife died, Ye Guihua heard the ins and outs of the matter from a tea merchant who attended the mayor's dinner that night, so he regarded Zhao Genta as an enemy, despised his behavior, and vowed to fight with the surnamed Zhao to vent his anger for his father.

Ye Guihua, who has been learning business with Ye Shou'an since he was a child, has been operating various businesses and development directions of the two subsidiaries behind the scenes at the age of 14.

On this day, Ye Guihua was looking at the business report of the subordinate flour mill last month in the office, and suddenly the secretary knocked on the door and said that someone wanted to see Boss Ye, Guihua asked who it was, and the secretary said that it was two northern men, and the other party didn't say anything, only said that he wanted to find Boss Ye.

"Let them in!" Ye Guihua took a sip of tea, tidied up his clothes, and sat on a chair waiting for the guests to enter the door.

Ye Guihua, who was indoors, heard the footsteps outside the door getting closer and closer, stopped at the door but there was no movement, only two male voices could be heard talking.

"Big brother, how do you open this door?"

"Where the fuck do I know where to go? What do you mean by this round thing on this door? Iron or silver? Could it be some kind of treasure?"

"Big brother, can you not be ashamed? We came this time to beg others to do something, don't go anywhere? The day before yesterday on the train, they all told you not to mess with the female flight attendant, you are good, you have to snatch people back as the wife of the village, if I didn't stop you, we would have to let the People's Liberation Army be arrested as bad guys now!"

"Huzi, we are not good people in the first place! There is nothing wrong with the People's Liberation Army arresting us, we are not wronged!"

"No, no, you're going to turn yourself in! Big brother, are you stupid to take the train?

"Damn, can you talk in a fucking civilized way? I'm your brother, and I have to scold you, and I don't say I'm not!"

At this time, it seemed that the secretary ran over, twisted the door lock, and the two entered the office.

Ye Guihua looked at the two people in front of him, they looked forty or fifty years old, they seemed to be very restrained, they lowered their heads and were at a loss, standing motionless in front of the desk, but when they saw that it was Ye Guihua sitting in the office, they put away their restraints, asked Ye Shou'an where he was, and sat on the sofa in the office living room as he spoke, picked up the fruit on the coffee table and ate it in a big gulp, not treating himself as an outsider at all. Ye Guihua said that Ye Shou'an was at home, and if the two of them had something important, she would call back and ask her father if he had time.

The two hurriedly nodded and said that there were 100,000 urgent matters, Ye Guihua dialed the phone suspiciously, Ye Shouan asked who was looking for him, Ye Cuihua remembered that he hadn't asked the names of the two yet, so he turned his head and asked.

"Two gentlemen, I will tell my father. Ye Cuihua asked.

"Wang Laoba!" The older man also had a loud voice, and Ye Shouan could hear it clearly on the other end of the phone.

Ye Cuihua has seen the two people in front of him, but he had a relationship five or six years ago, and now he has no impression.

Putting aside the phone, Ye Cuihua also knew the origin of the two people in front of her, and saw that they didn't look like bad people, so she said: "Eighth uncle, Uncle Tiger, my father said that he will come over immediately, you sit for a while, and I will prepare some tea and pastries for you." ”

At this moment, a small guy dressed as a salesman ran in in a panic, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Mr. Ye, I just received the news that as soon as the Ye family restaurant opened this morning, it was smashed by the mongrels of Yanzhao Industry! Moreover, several branches in various districts of Jiyang and branches in the countryside were also smashed and intimidated to varying degrees at the same time! No one was killed or injured, but many things were smashed. ”

Ye Guihua frowned slightly, and said calmly: "Is the loss serious?" Can you be sure that someone from the Zhao family did it?"

The little guy replied: "It must be the Zhao family, although they cover their faces, but our Xiao Ding, who is in charge of freight monitoring, saw that the rice shop was smashed at that time, and he was alone, so he secretly followed the bandits, and saw them leave the rice shop and go around several times before entering the Zhao Mansion." ”

After Ye Guihua heard this, he was as plain as water, and the action of making tea in his hand did not stop, and he chuckled: "Gather all the available people, use all the methods that can be used, I don't care if the means are not on the table, I just need to see that Yan Zhao Industry has lost twice as much as me in one day." ”

The two brothers looked at each other, what kind of courage and courage can a young girl have? I heard that Ye Shou'an is very good at business, could it be that her daughter is also very powerful? Is this really a tiger father and a dogless girl?
