Chapter 279: The Righteousness of the Family and the Country

The time entered October, the German war against Poland had completely ended, and the entire country had been reduced to an occupation zone, but Zhou Yu still did not wait for Master Qi's return, he looked at the calendar and sighed lightly, and walked away silently.

Liu Banxian'er, who passed behind Zhou Yu with the account book, stopped and asked softly, "That Master Qi hasn't come back yet?" ”

Zhou Yu looked at the swaying shadows of the trees outside the window and shook his head.

"Although I don't like him a little, I don't deny that his ability is very strong, his kung fu is also very high, and he is even above the head of the martial arts, even if he is such a powerful person, he can't come back alive? It's a shame. ”

Zhou Yu shook his head thoughtfully and said: "It stands to reason that it shouldn't, Master Qi is quick and ruthless, and the most important thing is that he is ruthless enough and rational enough, this situation should not occur, could it be that there was an accident in the middle?"

Forget it, we are worried about it in vain from such a distance, we can only choose to believe him, probably something went wrong on the road, right fortune teller, help me transfer this money to Wang Xian's account, they have been having a hard time recently, they can help some, and take out some cash, I am going to go to Chinatown, and I made an appointment with Situ Meitang and them to eat at noon, you go with me. ”

Okay, Mr. Zhou, I'll do it, um, how much cash to withdraw?

Zhou Yu paused, and then said: "100,000 US dollars, take it and send it to Hutchison Teahouse, I will be useful." ”

"Okay, I'll go now."

Liu Banxian'er first called the big man Mu Dezhu, and then called the driver, and went straight to the bank.

Zhou Yu has been mobilizing funds quite frequently recently, and he has become accustomed to it, and most of this money has flowed to the land of China on the other side of the ocean, funding the guerrillas there who are still silently resisting the Japanese army.

Today's Chinatown has developed quite prosperously, and with the efforts of Roosevelt and Zhou Yu, New York City has recovered from the effects of the Great Depression as quickly as possible, and the introduction of the New Deal has not only restored its former prosperity, but also made business better than before.

Under the deliberate suppression and guidance of the Dragon Chamber of Commerce over the years, the Chinese community has become a positive social group, they will take to the streets to clean up from time to time, repair doors and windows for merchants, and also send Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters to neighbors during traditional Chinese festivals, while children can get red envelopes that are small but enough to surprise them.

At noon, Zhou Yu made an appointment with Situ Meitang, Li Sheng and other directors of the Chinese Federation, and set up a table at the Hutchison Teahouse, saying that there was something important to announce.

"Brother, is there anything that is so convenient to call and say now, and do you still need to put a table of food so painstakingly?"

Situ Meitang sat on a chair with a hat in his early four years, looking at a table of delicacies containing dishes from the north and south of the Chinese River, and his eyes couldn't help but shine.

Li Sheng, whose body had begun to develop horizontally, was full of red light, and then echoed: "Yes, Brother Zhou, they are all members of their own family, there is no need to see each other like this, just send someone to say hello if there is anything." ”

Zhou Yu looked at everyone with a smile and motioned to the waiter to pour the wine for the bigwigs present.

"It's because I treat all my brothers as my own that I want to put it on this table more solemnly, after all, what I'm going to say may be harmful to everyone and not beneficial, and it's a loss-making business."

Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Situ Meitang and Li Sheng's smiles gradually converged, and they exchanged glances, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of this influential figure in the Chinese circle?

Situ Meitang raised his hand to let all the service staff who served food and poured wine next to him exit the private room, and asked a few of his subordinates who followed him to guard the door, and then said solemnly: "Brother, to put it bluntly, my brother knows that you will never deliberately take us to do a loss-making business, do you have another meaning when you say this?" ”

Zhou Yu sighed lightly and said: "I can't talk about the deep meaning, at most for that little justice, let's not talk about these things first, let's eat first, drink first, and then talk about business after eating." ”

Situ Meitang raised his hand and spread it to both sides: "Don't, don't come to this set, how can we still eat if you talk halfway?" Don't sell it, let's be straight, our old men are all cheerful people, the big guy said, didn't he? ”

"Yes, Mr. Zhou, just say, our Chinese Federation has made a lot of money under your care for so many years, why do you want to take us to lose money this time? The brothers didn't say anything, as long as this matter is meaningful, it is enough, and I think what Mr. Zhou can take us to do must be meaningful. ”

"That's it, Mr. Zhou, just say it."

The surrounding directors all echoed and resolutely refused to eat, so that Zhou Yu would not eat until he finished speaking.

Zhou Yu looked around at everyone, slapped the table and said: "Okay, since the brothers support the brothers so much, then I won't be hypocritical, to tell you the truth, I want to recruit volunteers in the federal continent, train and equip them, and secretly send them back to China to participate in the Anti-Japanese War!"

I believe that all of you have heard that I have always taken the excellent seedlings of China to the New World for training and sent them back to China, but after all, far water cannot quench the thirst of the near, and the number is too small, and now the Japanese offensive is becoming more and more fierce day by day, and a large area of our motherland has been reduced to a war zone, and the people are even more miserable.

I believe that you have already seen the tragic situation in Warsaw, Poland a while ago, and I dare to assert that the people of our motherland will only be worse than this, not better than this, so I don't want to wait any longer, and I decided to take action, and this time we have contributed both people and money and efforts, and we will not get half a return.

This is the reason why it is difficult for me to speak to my brothers, after all, in business, I am not good at standing on the moral high ground to kidnap you, but I Zhou Yu put the words here today, as long as everyone can gather people to join the ranks of the volunteers, every family, I will pay out of my own pocket to subsidize them with a thousand US dollars, and it will also solve their family's work and children's studies, how about it? Is there any brother who wants to do it with me? ”

Zhou Yu slapped his palms twice as he spoke, the door of the private room was pushed open, Liu Banxian'er walked in front, and Mu Dezhu walked behind pushing a car, which was full of green dollars, neatly stacked one by one, as many as 100,000.

"If there is a brother who is willing to volunteer to join the Volunteer Army, he can take as much as he can for the 100,000 yuan, and if it is not enough, I will let people take it again."

Looking at the cart of dollars and listening to what Zhou Yu said, the directors present were stunned for a while.

Naturally, they have read a lot of recent news newspapers, and they have also paid attention to the international situation, after all, the fight on the other side of the ocean is hot, and these news are broadcast on TV and radio, and they can't pay attention to it if they want to.

However, they didn't expect that Zhou Yu called them over for dinner today, and what he said was about forming a volunteer army to return to China to participate in the war, which greatly surprised their expectations.

At this moment, Situ Meitang, who finally reacted, slammed his palm on the tabletop, and actually left a deep palm print on the thick and hard solid wood tabletop.

"Fart! Zhou Yu, do you treat me as a brother? You can pay for it, why can't I? Our Situ Meitang is also a man! When the country is in trouble, the husband is responsible, and everyone who leads the way has the obligation to fight for the country! Resisting the Japanese is not called a loss-making deal, brother, this is called defending the family and the country! Who cares about personal gains and losses to protect the family and defend the country? Ladies and gentlemen, do you say? ”

Situ Meitang took the lead and shouted, and the rest of the people reacted one after another, knocking on the table with a crackling sound.

"Yes, Mr. Zhou, we thought it was something, but it turned out to be this matter, even if you don't say anything about it, we will try our best to help the motherland and help those guerrillas!"

"Yes, since Mr. Zhou has brought it up now, how can we all have a reason not to take action? How is it enough to send some money and send some people? I'm also going to send that kid of my family to the battlefield and let him kill a few more Japanese devils for his son! ”

"That is, it is a great righteousness to protect the family and defend the country, although we are businessmen, we can also distinguish the priorities and the national righteousness, what did we come here for when we crossed the ocean? Isn't it just to make more money, when will you return to your hometown to glorify your ancestors? But now that the ranking of our ancestors may have been lifted by little devils, where else do we have the heart to do business here? Gotta kill it and fuck it back! ”

"That's right, fuck it! I, Li Sheng, put my words here today, one of all the protΓ©gΓ©s of An Liangtang is counted as one, and they all give Lao Tzu to join the Volunteer Army and return to China to resist Japan! For every little devil Lao Tzu personally rewarded him with 1,000 US dollars, killed an officer rewarded 10,000 yuan, and the brave Lao Tzu rewarded him with a suite in New York! ”
