Chapter 882 Eat the line, steal crystals, and deliver the economy to the door

Zhao Chuanxin slept earlier than everyone else.

It was late, the street lights in the bustling area of Hankou had been turned off, but the corners were still on.

Feng Zhusun's "Hankou Zhongxi Bao" recorded the matter of street lamps: the special office of the Third Police Bureau ordered Guan Qing to install street lamps in secluded places near the area under his jurisdiction, so as to avoid darkness at night and inconvenience to pedestrians, and the bright lights shine on thieves, and they are incapable of harm, which is also the good governance of the police. In the area around Houhu, the ground is open and crowded recently, there are many reservoirs and ditches, and it is quite inconvenient for pedestrians at night......

A little homeless man picked up the "Hankou Zhongxi Bao" from the ground, brushed the mud off it, and struggled to read it with his fingers.

He once sold cigarettes on the streets and witnessed Zhao Chuanxin smash the concessions of the great powers.

Zhao Chuanxin also talked to him and asked him about his aspirations, and he said that he would become an official when he grew up.

Even the god of war praised him for his talent, saying that he was an ugly duckling...... Said that he brought the seed of the white swan.

Officials are literate, so he must also be literate. If you don't have the conditions, you can be self-taught.

Reading a message, the little wanderer clumped the newspaper into a ball and stuffed it into his clothes, so that he could sleep at night to keep out the cold.

He glanced at the direction of the British Concession again, and said in his heart, when will Zhao Chuanxin, the god of war, show his might again? It's good to teach these foreigners with their nostrils facing the sky to know that they are powerful.

British Concession River Beach, Yokohama Shojin Bank.

There are no staff at this point, and the door is locked.

Several armed patrol officers did not dare to be careless, and walked around the downstairs and upstairs, especially inspecting the door of the storehouse where money and valuables were kept.

Because many banks in Hankou were looted before, and the losses were heavy.

At this time, the warehouse used a thick door weighing 50 tons.

Banks in Hankow, Shanghai, and other places have basically changed to this kind of thick door since they were patronized by Zhao Chuanxin, and Yokohama Zhengjin Bank is quite conservative, and it is said that the British HSBC is ready to put on a 200-ton iron gate.

They are guarding against thieves for a thousand days.

At this time, in the warehouse.

Zhao Chuanxin flashed.

He went to bed early because he had to get up in the middle of the night to work.

When he arrived at the vault of the Yokohama Zhengjin Bank, Zhao Chuanxin glanced at the copper eyes on the shelf, picked it up and observed the environment left and right.

Xingyue said: Go forward over the three shelves, and at the corner there is a rock base with a load-bearing column, and you will dissolve the rock, and place the copper eye in it and wrap it, and only a little bit will be exposed.

Zhao Chuanxin walked away, and sure enough, he found the column.

He turned the side of the rock facing the open area into a small hole with the mouth of a bowl, and after putting the copper eye in it, he restored the rock to its original shape, but left a hidden lookout hole.

After doing this, Zhao Chuanxin touched his chin.

He has a series of plans for this place.

At this time, Zhao Chuanxin turned his attention to the vault.

He first walked between the shelves, saw calligraphy and paintings, and put away the ones he liked.

What surprised him was that he even found Qi Baishi's painting.

I don't know if Qi Baishi is still messing with Guo Renzhang now.

Many people say that Qi Baishi's nobleman is this and that, but Zhao Chuanxin believes that the most important nobleman in Qi Baishi is Guo Renzhang.

He put away Qi Baishi's painting and continued to walk forward.

I received a few more bottles and cans.

He took it selectively, and he took some of it.

Finally, we came to the area where gold, silver, banknotes, and the ocean were placed.

Zhao Chuanxin rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment.

In the area of silver ingots, he took two-thirds of the silver and left a third.

Take out the iron block from the secret realm and put it on the ground: "The density of silver is 10.49 g/cm, and the density of iron is 7.86 g/cm. โ€

Xingyue Mali manipulated the black puppet craftsman to work, and Zhao Chuanxin took the remaining silver ingots beside him, and wrapped the iron ingots planted by Xingyue with the old god crucible brand to melt silver water.

The wrapped "silver ingots" were re-stacked by him according to their original positions, and the number was roughly the same.

He took out a few piles of paper, cut out the size of the banknotes with an elven carving knife, and then clamped the real banknotes up and down, pretending to put them back.

After working for a few hours, Zhao Chuanxin looked at the vault with satisfaction, which seemed to have not changed much.

He turned around and flashed back to the attic of the Bagong house, and continued to sleep.

The next morning, Zhao Chuanxin first put away the messy things made by Xingyue as usual, and after washing, Liu Huaqiang knocked on the door.

I didn't drink this last night, but I got up very early.

"Principal, after the bonus was paid last night, there is still a lot of silver left, do you take it away, or merge it into the account of Lixing Foreign Bank?"

"Incorporated into the account." Zhao Chuanxin put a towel on his shoulder, brushed his hair and said, "I will give you another sum of money, and you will take it to the central government to buy back a Daimler truck from overseas to continue your research." I don't care about the cost, but I ask you to build a car as soon as possible. The roads in Lugang Town have been repaired, and the province will be followed next year, so cars must be put on the agenda, and the first cars and trucks I want to see on the highway outside the customs are all domestically produced. โ€

Joint ventures are not OK, they must be domestically produced.

Zhao Chuanxin not only left the money to buy the car, but also the follow-up bonus.

Liu Huaqiang saw that Zhao Chuanxin took out all kinds of money, including silver dollars produced by the Guangdong Mint, silver ingots that were unrecognizable, eagles, pounds, yen banknotes, and even guilders......

He scratched his head: "Headmaster, did you rob the foreigner's bank?" โ€

"Ahem......" Zhao Chuanxin reprimanded with a serious face: "What nonsense, Zhao is law-abiding, loves peace, and hates burning and looting horse bandits and handmaidens the most in his life, how can he follow suit?" โ€

Liu Huaqiang was ashamed.

The headmaster, Mr. Gaoyi!

Liu Huaqiang asked him: "Principal, do you want to go to Lixing Foreign Bank to have a look?" โ€

"Nope." Zhao Chuanxin refused: "I'll stay for another day or two at most and leave." โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

Zhao Chuanxin took out some drawings again: "This is a little bit of my experience about automobiles, and it may be helpful to pass it on to the students of R&D." โ€

This is Xingyue to restore Zhao Chuanxin's memory, and then calculate, as much as possible to give drawings and parameters about the in-line four-cylinder engine and V6 engine, right or wrong, anyway, it is an idea.

There are also some ideas for cylinder alignment, valve layout, and crankshaft design optimization to improve combustion efficiency and power delivery.

The spatial sense of the stars and the moon is far beyond that of humans, and they clearly draw the six-sided and internal drawings of each concept, which is extremely detailed.

That's the benefit of feeding a lot of data.

Liu Huaqiang was shocked.

The principal is really talented!

He put away the drawings as if they were treasures.

Zhao Chuanxin didn't hang out in Hankou, because Sister Hua was back, and he had to prepare some gifts, after all, he was a little weak-hearted.

As for why the heart is weak? Hehe, Zhao Chuanxin doesn't know why he is weak-hearted.

He flashed the small house built on Dingdong Island, deposited some gold and silver in the thick rock layer in the basement, and then restored the rock ground to prevent money from occupying too much space in the secret realm, after all, weapons are the most important materials.

At this time, Xingyue reminded him: Eye 11 is already in place.

Eye No. 11, both sent to Honolulu, Hawaii, Bronze Eye.

Honolulu, Hawaii.

The high priest of the Karnaca tribe received the bronze eye.

The visitor told him: "This is sent by Mr. Zhao Chuanxin, let them be placed on the altar, and do not hide in the corner and cover the dust." โ€

The high priest tossed and turned and fiddled with his bronze eyes: "Since the god of war in Kuku said so, there must be a reason for him." โ€

Sure enough, he placed his bronze eyes squarely on the altar.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Hawaii is here, will Ethan Manor be far away?

Zhao Chuanxin finished hiding the emergency silver and ran south along the coast.

When the temperature gradually rises and is high enough for him to accept, he dives into the sea.

It's probably off the east coast of Wanwan.

Zhao Chuanxin held his breath and asked Xingyue to take him down to the seabed at a depth of nearly 100 meters.

At this time, the sea did not heat up abnormally as in later generations, so the corals did not bleach. There is no industrial waste, and the seabed is clean. Reef fisheries and overfishing are non-existent, and the marine ecology is excellent.

What bad intentions can Zhao Chuanxin have, he just wants to break a piece of red coral.

But he found that if he wanted to break a piece of coral outside without harming it at all, it was not realistic.

There are many eyes of polyps outside, the density is low, not delicate enough, and the color is orange, so it doesn't look like it can be handled.

Zhao Chuanxin was helpless and continued to search, Xingyue kept scanning around.

It wasn't until Xingyue found out that she saw a big one, giving the general appearance of the coral. Zhao Chuanxin estimated that this piece of red coral had grown for hundreds of years, and its core was still very chic in the shape of a heart.

Lao Zhao looked left and right, gritted his teeth, and said in his heart: Lao Tzu doesn't pick it now, and it won't take a few decades to let future generations of unscrupulous descendants be ruined to death.

So he cut open the outside and picked the ox blood saffron core inside.

As for whether Coral will die or not, that's none of his business.

Slowly floating, Zhao Chuanxin breathed a sigh of relief on the sea.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

As soon as Zhao Chuanxin left Hankou, the managers of the banks in Hankou held an emergency meeting.

The matter has nothing to do with Zhao Chuanxin.

The reason is that Zhang Zhidong, the Minister of Military Aircraft, was appointed to concurrently supervise the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway and the Sichuan-Han Railway in Hubei Province, and the Qing court tried to get Zhang Zhidong to take back the right to build the Huzhou-Guangzhou Railway from the civilian gentry and make it state-owned.

But if you want to build roads, you have to have money.

If the gentry were not allowed to participate, they would have to borrow money from the foreign powers, and the court would not have any extra silver.

As soon as Zhang Zhidong released the news, Germany's Deutsch-Hua Bank immediately sent a manager to contact him.

At this time, Germany was being encircled and intercepted by the Entente, and was eager to find a breakthrough everywhere, but it happened that the Qing court threw an olive branch, and they immediately caught it.

Therefore, the borrowing conditions are very superior.

Even small countries such as Belgium dare to make an inch, but the huge Germany has conceded a lot, can Zhang Zhidong not be moved?

Zhang Zhidong's heart was moved, but the rest of the powers were in a hurry.

It's like seeing a delicious bunch of vicious dogs, ready to pounce on them.

The UK's HSBC was the first to act.

Then it was France.

The Japanese actually don't have the strength to compete, they seem to be the little brothers who have just integrated into the circle of the big brothers, and the big brothers slapped him, and he could only swallow his anger, but he blew his beard and glared at the younger brothers below.

The reason why they also followed the meeting was because US Secretary of State Knox had been thinking about the China Eastern Railway outside the Kanto and the South Manchurian Railway in Japan.

Germany was still a supporter of the United States at this time.

In this way, the United States temporarily became Japan's enemy, and the enemy's friend was also an enemy.

That's why they met to discuss.

Eitaro Sawamura, the representative manager of the Yokohama Zhengjin Bank in Hankow, said: "British Foreign Secretary Edward Gray sent a telegram to the Ministry of Finance, claiming that the United States coveted the South Manchurian Railway and wanted to neutralize it. At this time, Germany, a supporter of the United States, cooperated with Zhang Zhidong and agreed to borrow money. I guess Britain will not sit idly by. In this way, we may be able to participate in it, and at the very least, prevent Germany from taking the lead. โ€

Deputy manager Kubogawa frowned: "At this time, other branches can participate, but our Hankou branch is afraid that it will be ......."

The mud bodhisattva crossing the river is difficult to protect itself, and he even wants to participate in the battle for the right to build the Qing Railway, isn't that delusional?

Sawamura Eitaro naturally understood the situation, and he smiled and said, "Whether we have the ability or not, at least we should make a gesture." โ€

"Oh...... Kubogawa understood." Is this the illusion that we are suspending private borrowing and absorbing savers to give Germany and Americans the illusion that they are waiting for the rest of their lives? โ€

"Exactly." Sawamura Eitaro grinned slightly, and then maintained a false seriousness.

The main thing is to give their backs the big guy a gesture that the sun never sets.

Kubogawa hesitated for a moment and said, "Manager, yesterday Mr. Ueno Shinichi, the Consul General in Han, and Mr. Jotaro Yamamoto from Mitsui & Co., Ltd. Hankou Office, the two of them went to visit Zhao Chuanxin. According to Jotaro Yamamoto, Zhao Chuanxin has relented and promised not to boycott Japanese goods again, and our Hankou branch will gradually get better. โ€

"Huh?" Sawamura Eitaro: "Shouldn't Zhao Chuanxin be in the Yubin Mansion?" โ€

"No, according to Mr. Jotaro Yamamoto, Zhao Chuanxin may have been hiding in Hankow."

"That's impossible, our intelligence officers witnessed Zhao Chuanxin haunting the government office of Yubin Mansion with their own eyes, just a few days ago." Eitaro Sawamura was determined.

Outside the customs is like a sieve, and Zhao Chuanxin can't stop the Japanese intelligence officers at all.

"Ah, this ......" Kubogawa was stunned: "Does Zhao Chuanxin know how to doppelganger?" โ€

"It's very likely."

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

Sawamura Eitaro felt that things were a little tricky: "Zhao Chuanxin is definitely not a good type. Previously, Belgium wanted to plan the Lujรกn Railway, and Zhao Chuanxin robbed Lixing Foreign Bank and seized their concession. At this time, if we reveal that we want to participate in the struggle for the right to build the Huguang Railway, will we anger Zhao Chuanxin? Consul General Ueno has repeatedly stressed that we must not have disputes with the Chinese. โ€

Kubogawa thought for a moment and proposed, "Jotaro Yamamoto and Zhao Chuanxin have a good conversation, maybe you can ask for his opinion." โ€

"Prepare the car, let's go here."

When the two walked to the lobby, they saw sporadic people coming to handle business.

Someone took the silver ingot and instinctively tossed it in his hand.

Experienced people can determine the authenticity of silver based on the amount of money.

It seemed okay, and the man left the bank with the money.

The two didn't pay much attention to it and went straight out of the door.

They looked for the Mitsui & Co. Hankou branch office and found the Mitsui & Co. director Jotaro Yamamoto.

After Dao came to his senses, Yamamoto Jotaro pondered for a while and said: "Zhao Chuanxin said something to me before, he said that there was friction with the great powers, and he could seek peace with him. Combined with the fact that he received 5,000 yen from us for education, perhaps Yokohama Shojin Bank can also ......"

Kubogawa took over the conversation: "Can you also support the education of Juan King Technical College?" โ€

"Uh...... So to speak. Jotaro Yamamoto nodded.

Sawamura Eitaro laughed and said with a little disdain: "What kind of hero he is, it turns out that the person he asks for after becoming famous is nothing more than a yellow and white thing." โ€

There are too many such people in the world, and the two hundred and fifty or eighty thousand that they started to drag are actually all for promotion and wealth.

Once the goal is achieved, the wealth is unscrupulous and unscrupulous.

He felt that Zhao Chuanxin was also this kind of person.

After the two left Mitsui & Co., Ltd.

Kubogawa asked Eitaro Sawamura, "Manager, are we going to visit Zhao Chuanxin?" โ€

Eitaro Sawamura lit a cigar and said lightly, "We don't actually have to pay for the bluff. But I think it is necessary to test Zhao Chuanxin's attitude to facilitate the follow-up actions of our sub-branch. It just so happened that I heard that Gongxing Yangzhan had some contradictions with the Germans, so it was better to let Gongxing Yangzhan fund to test Zhao Chuanxin, killing two birds with one stone. โ€

However, all Japanese enterprises with some strength will not choose the Japanese concession, but will go to the British concession to gain a foothold.

Because the Japanese Concession never became prosperous, everyone said that the Japanese Concession was the ugliest concession in Hankow.

Because of the desolation, the Japanese came up with many crooked ideas.

For example, it is a famous business and entertainment district.

Love starts with the bell, and the bell stops.

There are also gambling and drugs available for recreation.

Gongxing Yangzhan, in addition to doing foreign business accidents, also opened entertainment venues.

There were Germans who went to have fun and didn't give money, and then they were beaten up, and they went back to find a field.

The Japanese were still a little intimidated by the Germans, so Gongxing Yangzhan found Sawamura Eitaro to intercede and ease his cheeks.

Before, Sawamura Eitaro disdained to do this kind of thing, but now he can just use it to talk about it.

They don't have to pay for it yet.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

When Zhao Chuanxin came back, it was already dark.

His face was a little tired and pale.

Xingyue said: Before you make up for the state, you'd better not work for such a long time in the future.

Zhao Chuanxin soaked in the sea for a day, ran east and west on the sea, from Wanwan to the South China Sea, and then went to the waters near Vietnam and Cambodia.

Turn on the electric light, and put the corals from the sea and the South Sea pearls on the coffee table.

Take out the elf carving knife and discuss the design plan with Xingyue.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Zhao Chuanxin opened the door and saw four people standing outside.

is led by Liu Huaqiang, and there are three people behind him, Zhao Chuanxin should be Japanese in terms of face and height.

Liu Huaqiang turned sideways and introduced Zhao Chuanxin: "This is Eitaro Sawamura, the manager of Yokohama Zhengjin Bank, this is Kubogawa, the deputy manager, and this is Teruyuki Ishida, the manager of Gongxing Yangzhan." โ€

He called him by his first name, which shows his attitude towards the Japanese.

Zhao Chuanxin was surprised, could it be that something happened?

But there was no monitoring at all, how did they know that he did it?

As soon as they spoke, Zhao Chuanxin knew that he was too worried.

"Mr. Zhao, we all agree that education is the foundation of society. Hearing that Juan Wang Technical College lacked education funds, we were anxious for a while, and immediately prepared and donated education funds. Kubogawa was a little clever and deliberately spoke before Teruyuki Ishida.

It's as if the money was given away by them together.

Liu Huaqiang: "......"

Blanched, the sun came out in the west? The little devil actually lined up to deliver money?

Zhao Chuanxin was also very stunned in his heart.

But he didn't show his face, helped his mask, stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please, and said enthusiastically: "Oh, it's really a distinguished guest, please come in." โ€

When the three of them saw it, they were relieved.

Zhao Chuanxin is even happier.

After eating a few waves of troops, stealing your crystals, and instead sending the economy to the door, Japan still has a lot of good people, and they are heartbroken for China's education.

Seeing the red coral and pearls on the coffee table, Teruyuki Ishida asked, "Mr. Zhao originally liked these things?" โ€

Zhao Chuanxin was stunned: This is the seal you unlocked with your own hands.

He touched the red coral and a pile of pearls, and his eyes showed a look of intoxication: "Hey, I'm not afraid of Mr. Ishida's jokes when I say it, Zhao loves these jewels and jadeite, harm, the more the better, I won't take a look at it if there is less." โ€

Teruyuki Ishida's face instantly stiffened.

He looked helplessly at Eitaro Sawamura and Kubogawa.

The two of them secretly cursed fools in their hearts......
