Chapter 2: Go to Xianyang first to be the king
Chapter 2: Go to Xianyang first to be the king
Wu Jingzhong doesn't know much about cars, but he has been fascinated by antiques for many years.
Lu Qinzhai was a big trader who traveled across China and the West, and all the toys he handled were good stuff.
"What do you say?"
Wu Jingzhong put down the porcelain bottle, his eyes were restrained, and his smile was friendly and warm.
Old fox!
Hong Zhiyou said in a deep voice: "When the chairman attacked Commander Yan, Kang Zuowen provided military rations, so he was considered a friendly merchant.
“Yishengyuan is also a time-honored brand in Jinhai Grain Store.
"Kang Zuowen is a local boss, and his brother-in-law is Adjutant Pang of the 94th Army. He is well-connected in the black market and is familiar with foreigners.
“With the Kang family taking over, there shouldn’t be any problems with grain transportation.
“We have reputation, reputation, and strength.
"I think it's feasible."
"Well, let's do it." Wu Jingzhong nodded appreciatively.
Why does he hold a porcelain bottle in his hand all day and look at it in front of his subordinates, making people accuse him of not doing his job properly?
Those are all enlightenment.
It's difficult for a new monk to chant.
He couldn't just tell everyone that he liked antiques, so everyone should be more sensible and hand in the good stuff if they should, or plunder if they should.
This depends on the subordinates to realize it.
It's just that these bunch of idiots always stand in front of or behind the boss every day, and none of them are smart or sensible.
Otherwise, why did he have to transfer Yu Zecheng who was far away in the mountain city?
Hong Zhi has been at the station for some time.
Wu Jingzhong's evaluation of him is:
Brains, but no guts.
There are thoughts, but no actions.
I didn't expect that I would suddenly get it today. It was a big surprise to myself.
"Stationmaster, then I'll go to the Kang family to confirm it." Hong Zhiyou stood up and said.
"and many more!
"Don't rush, go to the train station to pick someone up!" Wu Jingzhong smiled and handed him a letter of authorization.
"Yu Zecheng, proposed chief of the confidential department..." Hong Zhiyou looked up at the stationmaster, pretending to be puzzled.
Wu Jingzhong smiled and pointed at him:
“Secretary Hong, your job is to handle affairs for me and play cards and dance with those rich ladies.
"This person is my student, a senior member of the Qingpu class."
As he spoke, he squeezed his eyelids upwards:
"Young people should not work too hard. There are many confidential matters. You should take a break. You should pay attention to the balance between work and rest in everything."
Hong Zhiyou understood instantly that the stationmaster wanted him to carry the sedan chair for Yu Zecheng who had just arrived.
"Understood, thank you for your consideration, Station Master.
"Section Chief Yu is a senior, and I will spare no effort to cooperate with him."
Hong Zhiyou suddenly realized and said respectfully.
"Ok!"
"Oh, take this.
"The ganoderma and deer antler powder that Peking Stationmaster Ma gave me are good for kidney health and energy. They love to drink this, but I can't use it now that I'm old.
“Being with a woman is a chore.
"Have a good chat, have a good discussion, okay?"
Wu Jingzhong opened the drawer, took out an exquisite small jar and handed it to Hong Zhiyou.
“Thank you, Station Master.
"I will do my best to serve you, sir, for..."
Hong Zhiyou bowed 90 degrees, his eyes red with gratitude.
"Okay, okay, Jinhai Station can't hold the April 1st meeting. I'm not Boss Dai, so there's no need to shout slogans.
"Go quickly, don't waste time!"
Wu Jingzhong smiled and waved his hand.
"Yes!"
Hong Zhiyou took the order and left with red eyes.
"It's quite interesting." After the person left, Wu Jingzhong smiled with relief.
He has plenty of this kind of supplement at home.
I originally wanted to wait for Yu Zecheng to arrive and encourage him to take down Mu Liancheng's niece.
Unexpectedly, Secretary Hong fired the first shot.
There is nothing we can do about that. It will be given to whoever makes the contribution first.
After all, who wants too many lucky boys?
"First, go to Xianyang to be the king, and then... go to Xianyang together to support me in the government." Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hum happily, and his fingers quickly dialed a number:
"Hey, your brother is in Yuezhou, no, does he have any friends in the auction house in Hong Kong?
"Let him ask about a pair of Yongzheng-era enamels..."
Hong Zhiyou drove to the train station.
It can be seen that Wu Jingzhong is satisfied with his performance.
The future is promising.
Glancing at his watch, he walked towards the exit.
Soon, he met Yu Zecheng.
He has a well-proportioned figure, his hair is parted in the middle, his face is fair, and his eyes are small but bright and steady.
There is absolutely no fierce and murderous aura of "Is this melon ripe?"
If he puts on a long gown, he will look a bit like a teacher.
Who would have thought that the slightly feminine Comrade Yu could assassinate Li Haifeng alone?
"Senior Yu, I am Hong Zhiyou, the secretary of Jinhai Station. I have heard of you for a long time." Hong Zhiyou stepped forward and greeted him.
"We'll be colleagues from now on, just call me Lao Yu."
After a brief greeting, Hong Zhiyou packed his luggage and the two got into the car.
"Brother Hong, are you from Shancheng, or..." Yu Zecheng smiled and tested his background.
"I'm from the Southeast Sino-US class and I just graduated. There's an American base in Jinhai and they need someone who can speak a foreign language to contact them. Stationmaster Wu chose me." Hong Zhiyou took the initiative to tell Lao Yu.
"I see. Please take care of me in the future." Yu Zecheng nodded.
The two chatted about some light topics.
When they arrived at the station, Yu Zecheng immediately presented his treasures behind closed doors. Then the stationmaster called Lu Qiaoshan and Ma Kui in for a meeting.
Hong Zhiyou waited for a while at the office registration desk outside the stationmaster's office.
He was not invited to the meeting.
It seems that if you want to become Old Wu’s confidant, you need to make more money.
He returned to the office, called Mrs. Kang, and went directly to Kang's house to pick up the goods.
When he arrived at the Kang family, Hong Zhiyou, who had obtained the right to handle the matter, simply put out the last few lucrative bids for the docks, textile factories, etc., and asked Mrs. Kang to organize a group to gather together those wealthy businessmen in Jinhai who were interested in "taking advantage of the situation."
Antiques are preferred, but gold bars and US dollars are also acceptable.
Mrs. Kang's natural service.
Getting the "imperial sword" of Jinhai Station will be of great benefit to the Kang family in improving its status in the business circle.
Kang Zuowen tactfully found an excuse to leave, leaving the two of them alone.
Hong Zhiyou couldn't refuse the kindness, so he hugged Mrs. Kang and "plotted" for a while, and only left after he had eaten everything.
……
“I don’t have the blessing of being the webmaster’s student like Lao Yu does.
“If you want to gain their trust completely, you must take down Mu Liancheng, and of course Wanqiu.
"Old Yu already has Zuo Lan and Cui Ping, there's no reason for Wan Qiu to be ruined by Xie Jieba.
“Of course, we have to be careful here and not steal the limelight from Old Yu, the Lucky Boy.
"Otherwise, he won't be able to get along at Jinhai Station, and he won't be able to eat this melon."
Before leaving the Kang family, Hong Zhiyou found a roadside tea stall and thought about his next plan.
I want to take Lao Yu with me!
This melon doesn't seem to be easy to chew.
Fortunately, Mu Liancheng's gold mountain is big enough. A boat and several rooms full of treasures should be enough for him and Lao Yu to burn incense and worship Buddha, and save up enough to become farmers in Southeast Asia in the future.
Paid for the tea.
He found a place to call his old American classmate Anderson and made an appointment at Tongfu Hotel on Huaishan Road.
Huaishan Road is paved with bluestone, and there are blue-gray old houses and shops along the street.
This side is quite lively, with peddlers, medical doctors and restaurants everywhere, including the Xuanji Pharmacy owned by Qiu.
Arrived at the hotel private room.
Anderson, a handsome, tall, blond American, is smoking a cigar.
"Hong, long time no see. You didn't look for me when you came to Jinhai. That's not very nice of you." Anderson spoke fluent Chinese.
Thanks to Jiang Yiying for cracking the Japanese telegram about the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Furthermore, civil war was imminent.
The Americans established a special intelligence line with Boss Dai.
Anderson was one of the first exchange students to come to the inland for training. During the special training class, Hong Zhiyou was good at foreign languages and had a good relationship with these exchange students.
"It has been a short time since the recovery of Tianjin and Haikou, and there are so many things to do.
"I want to ask you about someone, Mu Liancheng." Hong Zhiyou went straight to the point.
