New Warlords 1909

Several tall cranes caught Hua Fei's eyes.According to the driver.That is the largest shipyard in Shanghai.The British Jesson shipyard.Since entering Shanghai 20 years ago.After several mergers and reorganizations.At present, it has developed into one of the largest shipyards in Shanghai and even in East Asia.

in this era.The strongest in many industries is not national capital.But these privileged foreign businessmen.This is no longer a case of special protection.It's more of a norm.Although Hua Fei has seen many examples.But look on the slipway at the Jesson shipyard.The prototypes of ships are slowly being perfected.There is still an uncomfortable feeling in my heart.

If one day.Be sure to annex them....Hua Fei's eyes froze suddenly.An idea sprouted dimly in his heart.perhaps.Don't go to if.Just take them!

The car arrived at Zhu's house in Dongjiadu, Gujialane, Nanshi.At this time, on the street outside Zhu's house.All kinds of foreign cars have been parked.Similar to the new type of super small car like Huafei.There are also several.I don't know that Ford has entered Shanghai.It was Huafei's Ford that led the trend.

Zhu Zhiyao is the representative of the Zhu family.He led a large group of celebrities, gentry and merchants to welcome them out in person.Hua Fei has a close relationship with Zhu's and other Gu's business circles.It has long attracted the attention of many people in the Shanghai business community.At the beginning, people didn't understand why Hua Fei valued Gu Jianong so much.Although Zhu Malu's family is quite famous in Shanghai.But because of their beliefs and living habits.Contact with local business circles in Shanghai is not very frequent.The relationship with the French and other foreigners is even closer.

Just when everyone was guessing.But I saw Hua Fei's speech at Hexing Iron and Steel Works from the newspaper.People suddenly realized.It turned out that the reason why Hua Fei valued Gu Jianong.But it was because of the Zhu family and the Lu family.All have invested in heavy industry.Most real people in the autonomous region attach so much importance to heavy industry.This is also a commercial message to some extent.Sensitive businessmen'| have begun to recruit.While expanding light industry.Started to enter heavy industry.This is coming to Hua Fei.But it was completely unexpected.

The Zhu family and other families have come to Shanghai since the turmoil of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.It's been a few decades.in decades.Several interoperable marriages.Contact 'cut.Many people work as compradors in foreign firms.Or seek a job in the board of directors of the concession.Some people have made great achievements in the business world.

People from all walks of life were invited.Those reporters did not miss this opportunity.Gathered here early.Hua Fei was accompanied by Zhu Zhiyao.Met many guests.Among them, not only Hua Fei did not expect it.Even Zhu Zhiyao was extremely surprised.Consul Piceno of the French Consulate in Shanghai also came to the dinner.

The whole banquet was full of toasts.Dress French flooded.Hua Fei raised his spirits.Coping with toasts and greetings over and over again.Especially the French consul Chenault.Chattering in that haughty tone.It expresses the close cooperation between the autonomous region government and the Germans.It will definitely harm the interests of the French.And said that if Hua Fei does not take measures.He will lose the support of Britain, France, Japan and other countries. (British-Japanese alliance)

Hua Fei had no choice but to accompany him with a smile on his face.crimes of the French.It's not necessary at all.This country was devastated by the Germans both in World War I and World War II.In fact, it is also very poor.That seemingly chic romantic demeanor.Isn't it a kind of evasion and cover-up for inner fragility and lack of confidence!Just who they are now.There is no such awareness at all.They are still immersed in the great power mentality left to them by the Napoleonic era.

"Mr. Zhu. I don't know who came to the banquet today. Is there anyone who runs a shipping company?" Looking for a free time.Hua Fei whispered in Zhu Zhiyao's ear.

Zhu Zhiyao thought for a moment. "There are more than ten companies operating freight and passenger transport on the Yangtze River. They are all old customers of our Qiuxin factory. There are also several colleagues who came to this banquet in the name of the commander. There are also several companies of different sizes under the names of these colleagues. Small shipping company."

"Anyone close to the British?"

"Except for two or three companies. Most of them are just cooperative relationships at most. Not to mention

cut!You know.Neither is British.Still French.They are always yellow-skinned Chinese! "

Although Zhu Zhiyao wondered why Hua Fei asked this question.But he still said it quickly.

Hua Fei nodded.There seems to be a decision in my heart. "Mr. Zhu, please contact these colleagues. I need to borrow a room. Talk to everyone about business. It's better not to disturb other people."

Zhu Zhiyao felt even more strange.But he seems to be a little bit used to Hua Fei's behavior.Immediately confess a few words to the people around you.leave now.

Hua Fei took the opportunity to flash to the backyard.He wants to be quiet.Think carefully about the feasibility of this plan.It was a chilly night in early spring.But in Zhu's yard.Some flowers and trees have spit out buds.Lu Bohong's electric light company made the entire area use electric lights.The lighting of the lobby.Hua Fei sat down alone in the gazebo in the Chinese-style back garden and meditated.

"What are you thinking? Don't like banquets?"

A crisp and soft voice.Hua Fei was startled.He turned to look.But I saw two of the same size.A woman about ten years old is standing in the gazebo.One is wearing a French dress.Wearing pure white silk gloves.being dragged by another person.Nose slightly sweaty.He seemed a little flustered.

The other person was wearing a very common female school uniform.Neck length short hair.Cyan top.black | skirt.Wear a pair of round toe shoes.It is different from many female students that Hua has seen.The woman has larger eyes.Shining with sprite-like brilliance.And a little cunningly hidden.Personality looks very cheerful.Bouncing around.Although it is dark night.But it also makes you feel like you are in the sun.

Hua Fei smiled lightly.Although I saw many women at the banquet at night.But these two are a little strange.Especially the woman dressed as a student.It was obviously impossible to come to the dinner party!

"I'm thinking about things I should and shouldn't think about. What? You don't like booze either?"

The female student laughed even more happily.Pulling the gown sisters who seemed somewhat reluctant.He sat down in front of Hua Fei.The female students seem to be extremely curious.Can't wait to be authentic. "Then hurry up and talk about it. What should you think about? And. And. Since you shouldn't think about it. Why do you continue to think about it?"

Hua Fei couldn't help smiling.Seems like a plan to be quiet for a while.Seems to have had a miscarriage.Although the Gujia Nong is not in the concession.But since it's near a church.So security is very good.even so.The Zhu family still has quite a few nursing homes.So it is impossible for someone to get in.And the other woman was wearing a dress.Apparently here for a dinner party.They took the initiative to talk to each other.It can't be as simple as a coincidence.

"You are……?"

"Passionate. Sincerity. Refined. Elegant. Heroic? What? Sister Wan said a few compliments. I didn't see any of them! Hey. You are the vice chairman of the dignified autonomous region. Ask the young woman's name. Is it so impolite? Ask. Who are you?"

The female student seemed a little aggrieved.Regardless of the sisters around him, he kept tugging at her sleeve secretly.Unashamedly authentic.

Hua Fei was dumbfounded.It turns out that they all know themselves!As for the elegance.Heroic.Hua Fei couldn't laugh or cry anymore.He has never had such a great charm.But there is a newspaper that praises him every day with insight.Sometimes Hua Fei would feel embarrassed when watching it.

Hua Fei didn't want to get entangled with the two little girls here.He stood up and bowed softly, apologized and left.But who would have thought that female student jumped in front of Hua Fei.Reach out to block him.He pouted angrily. "Hey. You...you are too much. You are too ungentlemanly!"

Hua Fei couldn't laugh or cry.He had never encountered such a scene.Say you are angry.But he couldn't feel any anger.Don't be angry.But there is no way to be entangled by them.

"Okay. Okay. We won't blame you. Don't be angry with us, okay?" The female student's expression changed quickly.It is comparable to flipping books.He was still angry just now.In a blink of an eye, the smile bloomed again.Said a little coquettishly.

Hua Fei was about to reply.But I heard Zhu Zhiyao's shout. "Mr. Hua...Mr. Hua...?"

"I'm sorry!" Hua Fei apologized to the female student.across her side.Go quickly to the living room.Leaving the female student pursing her lips angrily.I can't wait to catch up and kick that damn Hua Commander to death.

"Sister Yin. It's so annoying. My sister also said that he is humorous and approachable. What. I think it's a big piece of wood. And it's a hateful rotten piece of wood! Oops. Oops. He doesn't know your name, sister Woolen cloth!"

"Little sister, maybe all soldiers are like this! And... and I think he... he is so good. It's not... not bad..." The woman in the dress finally spoke.a sound.It sounded softer and more pleasant than the female student's voice.It makes people feel comfortable.Even the ears couldn't help but dance.

"Sister Yin. Don't take you to favor him like this. You Wan sister are all the same. You are completely overwhelmed by love. Go to the head! Look. He ignores us. It's too rude. It's too rude. Already!"

"What...what love!" The woman in the dress blushed even under the moonlight.It can also be seen clearly.The low voice is like the moaning of mosquitoes.But she still tried her best to defend Hua Fei. "Didn't you see my father calling him? He...should have many, many things!"

Not to mention the spring-like feelings of the two women in the garden pavilion.In Zhu Zhiyao's study.Surrounded by more than a dozen invited businessmen.We are all peers.The best people are still enemies in business.So while sitting around each other in a circle.But the conversation was not very lively.

Hua Fei was accompanied by Zhu Zhiyao.into the study.Everyone knows Hua Fei.See such a battle.Seems to have guessed something.

Hua Fei said a few simple words.No time wasted.Straight to the point and straight to the point. "Excuse me. It's dinner time today. I shouldn't mention business. I just want to gather colleagues from the shipping industry in Shanghai. It's not easy. Thank you, Mr. Zhu. Don't blame Hua for being abrupt. I invite you here Nothing else. I just want to discuss a business with you guys!"

Everyone in the study immediately whispered.Obviously they didn't expect this.

"The so-called business is not righteous. Before I say the specific business. What I need to explain is that even if you don't want to participate in this business after hearing about it, it doesn't matter! But everyone must keep the secret. Don't leak it! I think Everyone must understand that I have a powerful intelligence agency in my hands. So once I find out who leaked the secret, it will lead to the failure of our business. I will make him pay the price!"

"Of course. Before I mention the specific business. You can still withdraw!"

Buzz buzz!The crowd's discussion became louder.In particular, Hua Fei actually threatened with military force.It can be imagined that this business is by no means ordinary.

Even Zhu Zhiyao was taken aback.apparently also

arrive.This happens.

Soon there were three or four people who were unwilling to participate in such business.Some people like to take risks in business.Others prefer smooth control.It's a matter of character.And the factors of the business itself.

"Very well. You can go out now. But you must remember. When you leave here, you will forget what I just said. I am not threatening you. It is just that this matter is extremely important. Once it is done. There is no such thing as secrecy!"

After leaving three or four people.Hua Fei was introduced one by one by Zhu Zhiyao.Finally, I have a general understanding of the people who stayed behind.Some of these businessmen are engaged in shipping.Some are sidelines.The largest ones have no more than twenty or thirty ships.The smallest ones have only a few passenger and cargo ships.The ships with the largest displacement are no more than a few hundred tons.The smallest is only a few tons.

Hua Fei sighed inwardly.Even sea and river shipping.Most of them are occupied by foreign capital.such a situation.No wonder the situation of real-soil colonization is not popular in later generations.Pop economy colonization.The lifeline of the economy is all in the hands of foreign capital.Frantically looting profits.gain wealth.Is this fundamentally different from colonization?

"The deal I'm discussing with you today is very simple. I want you to go back. Raise funds. Place ship orders to Song Shipyard separately. Order big ships. The bigger the better. The more the better!"

Although understand that the transaction can not be so simple.But everyone still asked immediately. "Hua Siling. Our company is not large in scale. Our financial strength is limited. Even if we order a ship, we can only purchase one or two small boats of several hundred tons. I am afraid that Hua Siling will not be satisfied! Besides, we have a good relationship with Mr. Zhu. Buy Ships are all ordered from Qiuxin Shipyard. It is rare to go to Yesun Shipyard to buy new ships!"

Zhu Zhiyao also looked at Hua Fei suspiciously.Obviously, he couldn't figure out the intention of Hua Fei's transaction.

"Of course you want to order new ships from Qiuxin Shipyard. But because Qiuxin Shipyard has already received several large ships, it is impossible to build new ships in a short time. That's why you ordered ships from Yesong Shipyard!"

"And the ship you ordered. It can't be less than [-] tons. It's better to reach more than [-] tons to [-] tons. The larger the quantity, the better. Because you only need to pay a deposit. How much capital you have. All the capital Place an order with the shipyard as a deposit!"

"You can even mortgage your assets. Loans from the galaxy. Buy new ships!"

Wow!It's a lot of fun now.Everyone knows each other well.Or people who are known to be contradictory.All excitedly discussed.They are not excited because they see huge mountains of gold and silver.It's Hua Fei's sentence of mortgaging all assets.I was so frightened that I was so excited!

"Commander Hua. I don't know what kind of business this is? Let us do this. What is the intention?" Someone boldly asked.
