Republic of China Tycoon Reborn
Chapter 322: Flying Opium
"Stop talking, you are risking your life," Wang stopped the shop owner: "It is still unknown whether Mr. Du is dead or alive. You talk nonsense, be careful someone will cause trouble for you." The shop owner immediately obeyed. : "Yes, yes, you were right to remind me,"
Du Yuesheng walked over slowly: "Boss, I'd like to ask you something." The shop owner smiled slightly: "Guest, if you have any questions, just ask." Du Yuesheng nodded: "Ask me, Du Yuesheng has something in his hand." There is a large amount of opium, and I happen to be running this business as well. Can you tell me more about it? I want to buy some in large quantities."
The shop owner laughed and said, "The opium in Mr. Du's hands is really incredible. All the opium in Shanghai is probably not as much as what he has in his hands alone. Mr. Huang Huangrong used to be in this business, but The bit of tobacco he made was nothing compared to Mr. Du. Not to mention, Mr. Du is such a genius, I don’t know where he got so much tobacco."
"Thank you," Du Yuesheng thanked him, then turned around and went out. His face had turned completely dark. He had a large amount of opium in his hands. What was going on? He had always resolutely rejected opium. For so many years, he had never been contaminated by it. , what happened this time.
Yan Shenwu also saw that he looked unkind, and at the same time, he was also wondering what was going on. The two looked at each other, and they both saw confusion in each other's eyes. They escaped and survived outside. Seven days, seven days, is not a long time. Why, why would such a strange thing happen in seven days?
Wang Yaqiao came over to join them: "My people and your people will be here soon, Yuesheng. After this incident, I, Wang Yaqiao, have made you a friend." Du Yuesheng nodded: "I have made you a friend too. "," the two looked at each other and smiled: "Go in water, go in water, go in fire,"
Wang Yaqiao smiled mysteriously again: "Yue Sheng, guess what, Shanghai Beach has changed a lot in the past few days. If you tell me, you won't believe it."
"Oh," Du Yuesheng raised his eyebrows: "What change?" Then he thought to himself whether Wang Yaqiao was talking about his opium.
"Zhang Xiaolin has risen," the news brought by Wang Yaqiao was absolutely shocking: "The day after we left, he appeared in the public eye with a high profile. Ha, what a big deal he made. Within two days, he acquired A large number of companies, and more than a dozen large companies have been registered in one breath, all of which are in high-profit industries. Yuesheng, in the past few days, his status has jumped up like taking a plane. Now, he is already with you and One of the three tycoons tied with Huang Huangrong,"
"What..." Du Yuesheng was really surprised: "How is this possible? There is no force in the world that develops so fast. This is very abnormal." He said doubtfully: "Could it be that Huang Huangrong and Junrong They are trying their best to support him," and then he shook his head: "This is impossible, it is unreasonable," and then his heart moved: "Is it possible that there are other noble people to help,"
Yuan Shanbao personally brought a motorcade to greet Du Yuesheng with great fanfare. Du Yuesheng said goodbye to Wang Yaqiao and left his contact information. After getting in the car back, Du Yuesheng first asked Yuan Shanbao: "Shanbao, there are rumors that I, Du Yuesheng, have There is a lot of opium on the sea, is this true?”
"It's true, we have a lot of opium cigarettes in our hands," Yuan Shanbao answered him hesitantly: "Brother Yuesheng, where are you these days? We are all worried. Sister Chen even personally went to Jiangsu to find someone. Liu Chuanqing also helped search for it for a long time, but he still couldn't find it."
"We encountered a small danger and it has been resolved." Du Yuesheng brought the matter over vaguely: "What happened to opium, and what happened to Xiao Lin."
"We're home," Yuan Shanbao stopped the car. The car had arrived at the door of Du's house. Yuan Shanbao walked down: "Brother Yuesheng, let's go inside and talk." Du Yuesheng nodded and entered the main hall inside.
Naturally, everyone was extremely happy to meet each other. Everyone told each other how they felt about not coming, and the topic finally turned to business. Du Yuesheng asked about the doubts in his heart, and Chen Junrong said hesitantly: "These opiums are all bought by the National Government. "
"What..." Du Yuesheng stood up suddenly. He could hardly believe his ears: "I bought it from the National Government. What's going on?"
Yuan Haipeng stood up and answered him: "On the second day after you went to Nanjing, a special central official suddenly came to contact us. He said that during the election of President Chiang Kai-shek, he lent us a lot of money, and he also lent us a lot of money from the Shanghai business community. My colleagues had a lot of money. After research, the central government decided to pay for it in goods. They gave us a large amount of tobacco and soil. After repeated discussions, we originally didn't want to accept it, but they really didn't have the money. Our money can't be wasted. , Besides, you have just reached a cooperation agreement with the central government, and we thought that this might be the result of a compromise between you and the central government..."
Du Yuesheng's heart sank. Jiang's surname was a time lag. The government of the Republic of China did not ban the sale of opium. Their method of curbing opium was to impose heavy taxes. This tax itself is far higher than the value of opium. For example, Well, for two yuan of opium, they have to levy a tax of five yuan. That's why opium smuggling is so rampant. However, although the government does not prohibit the sale of opium, I have always insisted not to touch this thing, for no other reason. Just because this thing is really harmful to the country and the people.
But this time, Chiang Kai-shek actually played this trick with himself. If he sold opium to takeaways, the heavy tax alone would be enough to drink a pot of it. Besides, he would become a big opium dealer. From then on, he would become infamous and would surely be blamed for many people. Just colleagues in the business world and people in society are despised. When the time comes, no matter how powerful one is, others will despise him. No, he must not be like this. The worst he can do is help those colleagues in the business community repay the money they lent to Chiang Kai-shek, and borrow the money themselves. I didn't plan to take the money I gave him, so let's leave it as it is, I can still afford this loss.
Du Yuesheng made up his mind and took a deep breath: "You guys have caused a big trouble for me." Chen Junrong said hesitantly: "There is no way, you are not here, we can only discuss it. Besides, you We are extremely worried after you have not returned for several days. We are afraid that you will be detained by the central government. By doing this, we also mean to show our goodwill to the central government."
"Burn it all, don't leave even a pound behind. I, Du Yuesheng, can't use this to harm my compatriots," Du Yuesheng said what he meant. Everyone present looked at each other with helplessness on their faces. Du Yuesheng was slightly surprised: "What are you doing? Just lose some money. We can make more money later,"
"Yue Sheng, you don't know the quantity of this batch of opium, that's why you say it so easily," Xiang Danian replied bravely: "Didn't you notice just now that what we told you was to buy, not to ask for, Even though the central government gave us the opium at a very low price of 30% off, the loan we gave was not enough, and we had to use money to buy the rest."
Du Yuesheng's heart sank: "30% off, it's so cheap. At such a low price, the loan I gave is far from enough. How much opium is this? It's impossible. How can the central government have so much opium? ,"
"We have asked, and people have also told us the origin of the opium," it was Chen Junrong who answered him this time: "In the past, the Qing government would issue anti-smoking regulations and arrest several big opium dealers. You know Yes, they once severely banned smoking. Lin Zexu is an example. After the Revolutionary Party drove away the Manchus, they seized a large amount of sealed opium from government warehouses across the country. Hey, government warehouses across the country, even if they were After several layers of smuggling, the remaining quantity is absolutely astronomical. Moreover, the Nationalist Government has also investigated many large opium smugglers in recent years and sealed up a lot of opium. Add these two together, and you can estimate how much it is. Bar,"
Du Yuesheng felt that his hands and feet were cold, and he took a deep breath: "This, so much,,"
"We have calculated," Yuan Haipeng stood up: "If we swallow this batch of opium and sell it properly, our assets will at least double. If we destroy it, it will be enough to make us bankrupt and lose everything. "Cun, not only us, but the entire Shanghai Youth Gang will become beggars. When the time comes, the Youth Gang will become a gang of beggars,"
Xiang Danian also stood up: "If we put all this opium into the market at once, it would be enough to collapse the current opium industry. If we sell it out slowly, it will take a long time. We don't have much. Time, because our funds need turnover, therefore, although Chiang Kai-shek has released a massive amount of opium, in the long run, his move can curb China's opium industry."
"It's just that we have to bear this eternal infamy," Du Yuesheng said what he didn't dare to say: "If you don't sell it, our business empire and all our forces will fall apart. If you sell it, it will not only harm the country and the people. , and serious businessmen will despise us, and people in the opium industry will hate us,"
Silence, the room was as silent as death. Du Yuesheng sighed: "Let me think about this slowly. If it doesn't work, I can only commit suicide to thank the world. I can't harm the country and the people, and I can't turn the Green Gang into a beggar gang."
"Yue Sheng, it's not that serious. As long as we plan the strategy well and release it slowly," Xiang Danian began to give his opinions hesitantly.
Du Yuesheng suddenly became angry: "New year, you have forgotten the teachings of the master back then. He worked hard to train the three of us brothers to be talented. Is it just to let us do such a cruel thing? Do you want the master to die in peace? , I think you should be punished by kneeling in front of your master’s grave for three days and three nights.”
Xiang Danian stopped talking and sat back on the chair. Du Yuesheng rubbed his head: "It's really a headache. By the way, what's going on with Zhang Xiaolin? The speed of his rise is truly unprecedented. ,"
"As for Zhang Xiaolin, we don't understand either. You'd better ask Huang Jinrong." Chen Junrong sighed: "You two are terrible young people. You have obtained so much opium with such generosity, and Zhang Xiaolin suddenly appeared under his nose.
Rise, I think he feels a little old. During this period, he stayed at home all day long, playing cards with his disciples and disciples, and didn't care about anything."
Du Yuesheng nodded: "Help me find some clothes, I'll take a shower and eat, and then go find Huang Huangrong,"
