Chapter 229: I Have an Idea
Hearing that someone called himself the "Demon King of the Four Elements" again, Zhang Sixing was stunned for a moment, thinking about whether he should let Chang Nan Pingming, who was doing business in the concession, find someone to smash several Japanese newspapers.
However, in front of Xu Zhongze, Zhang Sixing nodded, thinking in his heart:
He is called the Demon King of the Four Elements, what is the name of the invading army, the Hushi Beast Army.
Seeing that Zhang Sixing heard the nickname given by the Japanese, Xu Zhong smiled and said,
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's the nickname given to you by several Japanese newspapers in the concession, the Japanese give Brother Zhang such a domineering name, I can only say that they are scared by Brother Zhang."
Looking at Xu Zhongze's hearty and laughing appearance in front of him, Zhang Sixing had a little more affection for him first. However, when you think that the other party is a businessman, you will naturally put the interests of the business first.
Therefore, Zhang Sixing said lightly,
"Mr. Xu, I did fight in the Sixing Warehouse, but I don't dare to take the title of a hero, I just fought with a hero."
Xu Zhong's expression was stunned when he said this, and then he looked at Zhang Sixing's gaze, with real reverence,
"Mr. Zhang is too modest, with Mr. Jun's military quality, he will be the mainstay in the battle of the Four Elements Warehouse......"
As he spoke, he turned around and greeted the servants who were waiting outside the house,
"Come on, set up wine, good wine, hard dishes."
"Mr. Zhang, a few, that is, Xiangguang came to our store, this Dong has to let the little brother do it anyway."
As soon as he heard that he was going to drink and eat again, he was thinking about the gambling contract with Chennault, and he was in a hurry to buy things and make equipment, Zhang Sixing hurriedly excused himself.
"Thank you, Mr. Xu, but it's really busy with military affairs. The main reason for this is to withdraw from Shanghai, gathering more than 3,000 people along the way, and now they have been ordered to prepare a paratrooper school. It's a pity that the supplies haven't arrived, and I have no choice but to make this decision. ”
As he spoke, he looked at the sack, and Hansen hurriedly opened the sack and showed the goods inside to Xu Zhongze in front of him.
Looking at the objects in those sacks, and then at Zhang Sixing, Xu Zezhong's face changed a few times, and then said to Zhang Sixing,
"Mr. Zhang, no matter what kind of means these things are used, Mr. Zhang will lose a lot of money."
"This ...... Mr. Xu, it's true that the supply is tight, so it's not a loss......"
Zhang Sixing thought that Xu Zhong was in front of him and used his own discount urgently, but there was not much resistance in his heart. Who made the umbrella school financially strained now, and there are a lot of oceans and gold bars, but they all have to be pensioned according to the list.
According to the system at this time, ordinary soldiers were given a one-time pension of 80 yuan for the death of wartime, and an annual pension of 40 years was for 20 years. Even if he died in the last war, it was only 3,000 yuan at a time, and the annual pension was 800 yuan.
But God knows how much of this money can reach the families of the fallen soldiers. Not to mention the skyrocketing prices after the victory, those fiat currencies that are not as good as paper can be worth it.
You must know that the chairman of the committee plays customs duties, unified taxes, and salt taxes, which are the revenue of the government.
The tariff on imports, the more foreigners are satisfied, the more it means the more it is imported.
Unified taxation means exports, and the more raw materials exported, the more revenue.
The salt tax, a tax since ancient times, is not afraid of not being collected.
And the rest of the tax is delegated to the local government.
For this reason, some localities have more than 160 kinds of local taxes, and 63 percent of the peasants' income has to be handed over to the state.
Therefore, the bureaucrats and landlords were satisfied.
As for the people...... Hehe.
Therefore, Zhang Sixing had to give an extra pension to the soldiers who died under his command, otherwise the strong man would die in battle, and he was afraid that his family would starve to death.
Looking at the embarrassment on Zhang Sixing's face, Xu Zhong suddenly had an idea, you must know that he studied in France, but this idea needs Zhang Sixing's approval.
"Mr. Zhang, I have an idea, why don't you put these things here. I'm going to organize a four-row warehouse hero loot auction, if you will......"
As he spoke, he took out the checkbook from his bosom and wrote a series of zeros on it.
"If you're in a hurry to use the money, you can get it back and use it first."
"Twenty thousand oceans, how can Mr. Xu do this, even if these things are pawned here by you, they shouldn't be worth so much money, you ......"
Xu Zhong said with a smile in this regard,
"Mr. Zhang, if you don't engage in this business, I'm afraid you don't know that the value of the loot in the collector's market cannot be valued by its original value. Sole...... Mr. Zhang, if you can definitely mention the loot in the future, it would be better to attach a piece of paper with a description of who got it from, and a photograph of it......"
Looking at Zhang Sixing's blank eyes, Xu Zhong explained,
"For example, those Japanese war swords, if they are identified, they can be regarded as international collections if they are not sold in China......
Zhang Sixing's eyes widened at this time, of course, it was not because of the word auction, no one knew in the Internet era. The loot auction is accompanied by someone's name, and it is even better to attach a photo, which he really does not understand.
However, he still vaguely understood Xu Zhongze's routine, and in addition to collecting, he was still consuming patriotic feelings in China.
"Mr. Xu, ...... Not good......"
"Mr. Zhang, I believe that people like you will use all the money they get on the battlefield. At least you will take care of your brothers in Europe, and you will be brothers of the same sect here, will you do worse than in Europe? As for the others...... Don't you know that some people see yellow, but their eyes are red. ”
Zhang Sixing was speechless in one sentence, Kai Shengong's subordinates are not clean This is an ironclad fact, otherwise he would not have been driven out of the island, but such a thing is ......
He really didn't expect that Xu Zhong would make such an article about this matter. But he's really short of money, and he really doesn't have time to deal with these things.
But the problem is directly handed over to Xu Zhongze, so will there be any traps. When he was in Germany, he always threw it to the lawyers.
And what about in China?
He's a soldier, and in some cases a technician with "vision", but he's really not good at playing with commercial means. The current "business" is different from his being a shareholder in various companies in Germany.
Those are all under the management of lawyers, with real technology to "do business". For example, use bottom exhaust shells, tail stabilized shelling and armor-piercing eggs, composite armor, gap armor and inclination armor to cooperate with Krupp.
For Zhang Sixing, who has insight in his previous life, even a noun is needed to obtain a patent.
But right now, this is a transaction with hidden risks, if you agree, then Xu Zhong, who you just met in front of you, may use the name of the Four Elements Demon King to do something.
For example, with a watch that is not a trophy, auction for a high price or something.
The so-called feelings of harming others are indispensable, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable.
After all, this is not Germany.
"Sir, believe me, I worked in an auction house when I was in the United States."
"Huh?"
Looking at Hansen, who was eager to try, he didn't know that this thing could still do such a thing.
He asked with a frown,
"What have you auctioned?"
"Cow"
