1928: The rise of giant merchants

After venting his anger at Jin Bihui's house, Ye Luo's bad mood finally eased. It was just noon, and there were still several hours left before the afternoon auction of the Steamship Merchants Company. After lunch, he had to go The Songhu Police Department took a look at Li Guojie, but there was no rush now.

Ye Luo reached out to turn on the bedside table lamp, took out a cigarette and put it to his mouth when a smooth white hand came over holding a kerosene lighter.

The fire flashed by and the smoke filled the air, making his thoughts gradually calm down.

"You are so powerful!" Jin Bihui lay in Ye Luo's arms like a kitten, her face bright and rosy, and her tone was full of admiration and love.

Ye Luo shook the cigarette ashes with one hand and hugged the young woman's delicate body with the other, but there were thousands of thoughts in his mind.

During the sage's time, the man's thinking was extremely clear. He was thinking about how to deal with this female agent in the future.

Jin Bihui is most likely Yoshiko Kawashima in the original history, a proper villain. In the original history, this woman held important positions such as "Commander-in-Chief of the Anguo Army" and "Commander-in-Chief of the Northern Self-Defense Forces" of the Puppet Manchukuo, and participated in She was involved in secret military operations such as the Huanggutun Incident, the September 18th Incident, and the Manchuria Independence Movement, and personally directed events that shocked the country, such as the January 28th Incident and the transfer of Guobulo Wanrong, and was known as a "female spy dressed in men's clothing." , "The Witch of the East".

In 1948, he was accused of being a traitor in Peking Prison and was directly shot.

She should still be in the early stages of her spy activities now, and has not yet reached the stage of committing a crime.

Ye Luo smoked a cigarette and did not answer. He decided to control this woman first. Seeing how she looked, she was a little trapped in a love and money trap. It would be a good thing if she could get some plans about the Japanese spy operations from her.

If she really doesn't listen to the advice later and continues to cause harm to the country and the people, Ye Luo won't mind giving her a ride in advance.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jin Bihui felt a sudden chill in her heart. She thought that the other party disliked her, or felt that her service was not attentive enough. At this time, her mind was filled with the share of more than 300,000 yuan, and she only felt that she was working for the Japanese Consulate General. Somewhat thankless.

The former Manchu and Qing princess had very little money to work as a cow or a horse for others, which was really aggrieved.

After making up her mind, Jin Bihui shook his arm and said coquettishly: "Brother Luo, don't be unhappy~ I will accompany you to the more exciting head office later, right?"

"What's more exciting? Walking on a dry road?" Ye Luo asked with a smile.

"Well, as long as you want to, it's not impossible~" Jin Bihui looked like a silly girl in love, her eyes full of stars, she lowered her head shyly and said softly.

Now that they have reached this point, Ye Luo will naturally not let go of the little white rabbit he got.

It was already an hour after we finished walking the dry road.

Ye Luo hugged the panting Jin Bihui and laughed softly: "I heard that you really want to invest in Hongxing United Group?"

"Yes, who doesn't like making money? But that foreign woman is very irritating. She just refuses to absorb my equity. It's so annoying." Jin Bihui felt aggrieved and nestled against his chest, drawing with his fingers. Circle.

"If I come forward, Mrs. Dewitbucket will probably betray me." Ye Luo put out the cigarette butt in his hand and turned to look at her.

"Really? Brother Luo, are you willing to help me?!" Jin Bihui hugged him, endured the discomfort, and rubbed him gently.

"Then it depends on your consciousness." Ye Luo smiled mysteriously.

"Awakening? What kind of awakening? We are all yours. You can't let me divorce Ganzhuerzabu. Let's live with you~" Jin Bihui smiled playfully.

"You're helping the Japanese, right?" Ye Luo got straight to the point.

Jin Bihui's smile suddenly froze, and he smiled awkwardly and pretended to be stupid: "Brother Luo, what are you talking about? The Consulate General and I are..."

"I don't like to say something twice." Ye Luo interrupted her impatiently.

Seeing Ye Luo's serious expression, Jin Bihui suddenly felt that she might be experiencing the most important decision in her life. She hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded slightly: "Yes."

"From now on, I want you to help me spy on the Japanese intelligence and report once a week. If I have any requests, you must comply with them truthfully. If you can't do that, don't even think about taking a share. We will be out of this door in a while. , our relationship has returned to its original state, and if we have any disputes in the future, don’t blame me for being cruel and not cherishing our old friendship.”

Ye Luo rubbed her smooth back, but his voice was extremely cold.

"I"

"You don't have time to think about it, just give me an answer."

"I am willing."

"Okay, then I will help you intercede with Mrs. Dewitbucket. Of course, you should know my methods better than most people. If there are any weird little thoughts or changes, I don't want to personally deal with you." A hole in your pretty head.”

Ye Luo smiled sweetly, but in Jin Bihui's eyes, he looked like a grinning devil.

For some reason, despite being threatened, manipulated, and controlled by this man, she felt her legs heat up, and a strange pleasure surged into her heart.

After leaving Jin Bihui's villa, Ye Luo was driven by Cao Fan to the Songhu Police Department.

The second young master arrived in person, and Wen Yingxing personally greeted him at the door, appearing extremely enthusiastic.

After coming to Shanghai, Wen Yingxing became increasingly aware of the terrifying influence of the Ye family on all aspects of Shanghai.

If a top leader like him who is transferred from outside does not have a good relationship with the Ye family, he will be a figurehead in name only. Once an order is issued, all his subordinates will obey and obey, and there is nothing he can do.

Thanks to the good relationship between Song Ziwen and Ye Luo, Song Ziwen said hello, and he visited Ye's house many times to establish connections, he was able to live smoothly in the Songhu Police Department.

Little did he know that the reason why Ye Luo valued him so much was not because of the relationship between Song Ziwen and those mere gifts, but because of Wen Yingxing.

In 1932, he would become the head of the Tax Police Corps and be responsible for garrisoning Shanghai Bund. It was much more prestigious at that time than it is now.

During the war, how much Ye's assets invested in Shanghai Tang could be saved depended on the skill of these soldiers.

"How is Li Guojie doing lately?" Ye Luo asked as he walked.

Wen Yingxing sneered a few times, shook his head and said: "This man is hopeless. He is still talking about his arrogant grandfather. Haha, Li Hongzhang has been dead for so many years, what can he do to protect him? Second Young Master, look at this It’s his business card.”

Ye Luo took the business card and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile: "Chairman of the Board of Directors and General Office, General Manager of the Steamship Investment Company, a hereditary first-class marquis of the former Qing Dynasty?"

"The Qing Dynasty has been dead for more than ten years, and I still miss it." Ma Yongzhen on the side also laughed.

This reminded Ye Luo of a meme from later generations, "I am Qin Shihuang, now XXX, V I am 50, after I dominate the world, I will make you xxx." When I saw this meme, I just thought it was funny, but I didn't expect such a person to exist.

"The world is full of wonders, and reality is often more magical than fiction." Ye Luo came to the cell while joking with them.

Li Guojie, who looked a little haggard, heard the sound and looked up to see it was Ye Luo. He quickly grabbed the iron fence and shouted: "Second Young Master, Second Young Master, you are finally here! You've suffered me to death!"

"Hey, Mr. Li, how did you end up like this?" Ye Luo asked someone to open the door and quickly walked in with good wine and food.

Ma Yongzhen and Wen Yingxing looked at each other and smiled.

Good guy, the second young master turns out to be a man with superb acting skills!

The cell door closed again.

Seeing the good wine and food, Li Guojie didn't care that his hands were still chained by handcuffs, and he ate and drank like crazy with his head down. He was obviously starving.

Ye Luo didn't say anything, just waited quietly for him to finish, and then handed over a few napkins. (End of chapter)
