Republic of China Tycoon Reborn

There are ready-made restaurants in the big world, and the two of them don't have to run around anymore. According to Zhang Xiaolin's wishes, he originally wanted to give a grand feast to celebrate Du Yuesheng's return. But Du Yuesheng stated that he had something to do in the afternoon and could not accompany him.

Zhang Xiaolin ate too much. Zhang Xiaolin had no choice but to give up and the two of them had a simple meal with a bottle of rice wine.

Du Yuesheng stretched out a finger to poke at the bottle of rice wine: "Looking at the rice wine, I think of the Huangpu River. Brother Xiaolin, do you often go to the Huangpu River?"

Zhang Xiaolin chuckled: "I can't even count how many people I have thrown into it. Yuesheng, have you done so too? For those of us on the rivers and lakes in Shanghai, our favorite way to kill people is to pack them in sacks and throw them into the Huangpu River to feed the fish.

"

"Thrown it away." Du Yuesheng answered him indifferently, and the figure of Huang Wugui and the words Chen Shichang said to him when he first saw the Huangpu River floated in his mind: "But Brother Xiaolin, you saw it

Have the countless wronged souls in the Huangpu River not seen the countless wealth in it?"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Xiaolin became more energetic. He knew that Du Yuesheng would get to the point immediately.

Du Yuesheng poured the rice wine into the cup slowly and slowly. He tapped the rim of the cup with his chopsticks: "The rice wine has to pass through the rim of the cup before it can flow into our mouths. The wealth of the Huangpu River has to pass through the pier before it can flow into Shanghai Beach."

Holding the dock is equivalent to picking up the wine glass. At that time, it is up to us to decide whose mouth the yellow wine flows into, how much or how little."

"You want to get involved in the dock?" Zhang Xiaolin's eyes flashed with shock: "Do you know what's going on at the Shiliupu dock?"

"Oh? You know your stuff? You might as well tell me." Du Yuesheng smiled slightly, as if he had expected Zhang Xiaolin's reaction.

Zhang Xiaolin took a sip of rice wine, which was really tasteless to him: "There are dozens of Shiliupu Wharfs, lined up along the Huangpu River. Some of them are hereditary old wharves, such as Wangjia Wharf and Dongjia Wharf.

In addition to these, most of the good terminals are operated by big guys——"

Du Yuesheng waved his hand slightly, signaling Zhang Xiaolin to stop introducing. Before Zhang Xiaolin could finish his words, Du Yuesheng spoke slowly and logically: "Since the maritime ban was lifted during the Qianlong period of the previous dynasty, Shanghai has become the focal point for shipping trade between the North and South. 10

Liupu Wharf was first built at this time, and most of the hereditary wharves you mentioned were built at that time. At that time, they were still brick-and-stone stepped wharves."

This time it was Zhang Xiaolin's turn to be surprised. He had never paid attention to the history of Shiliupu Pier.

"There are dozens or hundreds of docks in Shiliupu, and most of them are now concentrated in the hands of five people. Among them, the two most important dock groups, one is jointly managed by the government and foreigners. And the other, the boss behind the scenes is Huang Jinrong, who is responsible for

Isn’t that right? The reason why you are familiar with Shiliupu Pier is entirely due to your work under Huang Jinrong, right?”

"That's all right!" Zhang Xiaolin laughed dryly: "It seems that you have not been idle in Sichuan, you actually know so much."

"This is called a scholar who knows the affairs of the world without going out." Du Yuesheng smiled slightly: "If you are like me, holding a newspaper in one hand and a map in the other, and at the same time holding the power relationship table in Shanghai in your mind, using four

With Nian Gong, you can also know many things."

"You're just bragging." Zhang Xiaolin laughed and drank another cup of tasteless rice wine: "It was probably Chen Junrong who told you, right? His brother, your old man, Chen Shichang, he has been hanging out in Shiliupu for how many years.

Okay, do you still know this?"

"Do it with me! Put a foot in the Shiliupu Pier. If we want to stand firmly on the beach, this first step must be on the Shiliupu Pier!" Du Yuesheng's face showed a little bit of confusion.

The excitement is like a politician giving a speech, which is very sensational and persuasive.

"You have such a big appetite, is this possible?" Zhang Xiaolin felt a little unbelievable: "Actually, what you said just now is a bit wrong. Behind Huang Huangrong, there are still foreigners. Yuesheng, you are not easy to step on.

, if it doesn’t work well, you’ll have to prick your feet.”

"You don't have to worry about it. I'll plan everything. After it's done, we'll split it 50-50. I only have one request from you, and that is to support me fully when I need it! No matter which aspect it is, how about it?"

"What if we lose?" Zhang Xiaolin, like Du Yuesheng, is also a person who thinks about defeat before winning. However, Du Yuesheng's words "five or five points" just now really attracted him deeply. Du Yuesheng did not say it in vain.

It is vernacular, but it provides real benefits.

"Lost? If I lose before I get you involved, then I will be unlucky alone. If I lose after I get you involved, then you will be unlucky with me." Du Yuesheng did not take over everything, but

The risks were stated honestly.

Two cold gleams suddenly burst out in his eyes: "Either you die or you starve to death. I have already thought about it. This is the fastest way to get a foothold in Shanghai. Only when things are done can I stand up. If it doesn't work, then live."

It's time for me to pack up and get out of Shanghai. How about it? Are you interested in having a fight with me?"

"I've done it! I'll play with you!" After hearing Du Yuesheng's words, Zhang Xiaolin not only did not hesitate, but became even more happy: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Du Yuesheng irresponsibly spread his hands and said, "I'll tell you when I think about it."

Zhang Xiaolin laughed: "You guy, when you talk so lively, you are just shooting blanks." Then he was quite curious: "You just said this is one foot of the first step, what do you plan to do with the other foot?

Where to put it? Also, where are you going in the second and third steps?”

"Drink, drink, let's drink when you say this." Du Yuesheng laughed: "I haven't thought about it yet. I will tell you when I think about it. This rice wine warms the stomach and is the best drink."

After the two of them finished eating, Zhang Xiaolin sent Du Yuesheng off. He looked at Du Yuesheng's figure walking into Du's house, and felt in a daze that he couldn't see through Du Yuesheng. Although he and Du Yuesheng had different personalities and philosophies, they were both running towards the same destination.

They were walking the same path. But when they reunited four years later, he suddenly felt that he and Du Yuesheng were not walking the same path anymore. If they were not walking the same path, would the destination still be the same?

"Did this kid become a spirit by cultivating in Sichuan? Did he get some immortal energy near Mount Emei?" Zhang Xiaolin raised the corner of his mouth as this thought came to his mind.

What's wrong with Du Yuesheng? The reason why he came back right after dinner was because his comfortable life in Sichuan had developed the habit of taking a nap in him.

Du Yuesheng was lying on the bed, tossing and turning. The dreamy figure and the surging Huangpu River drifted past in front of his eyes, entangled, alternating, and lingering.

"I think of the bloody battle at the beach party -" Du Yuesheng hummed the lyrics, and soon fell asleep. In his dream, he saw Yang Silang standing on the Huangpu River.
