A week later, in front of the Willis Building on Yanjiang Road, a group of tall, short, fat and thin people lined up in a long line, watching Cai Asi and Zhang Agou chatting together.

Brother Agou, I'm looking for a good person.

This person is not bad. Zhang Agou answered carefully looking at the people Cai Asi had brought.

I, Cai Asi, have always been reliable in my work, and I have chosen them specially. I don't want anyone with a disheveled face, I don't want someone who looks sick and old at first sight, and I don't want someone who looks surprised. It may not be okay for these people to pretend to be rich, and ordinary people are not at all. no problem.

Cai Asi praised the manpower he brought, and Zhang Agou nodded in agreement when he heard Cai Asi's words.

After seeing the relationship gradually being drawn, Cai Asi asked tentatively. Brother Agou, you said Mr. Stry, can I meet him?

Hearing Cai Asi's words, Zhang Agou raised his vigilance. He has the current glory by helping Strie to do things, and now Cai Asi clearly wants to pry his own job, which makes Zhang Agou uncomfortable.

Fourth brother, you know. Mr. Stry has too many things to do in a day. I can't see him. I can only talk to him when I have time.

Hearing that Zhang Agou shied away, Cai Asi knew that he was impatient. I can't blame him. Now this Stry has a big reputation in Shanghai. The newspapers are saying that the rubber market is very good these days. In the newspapers, the master was specifically mentioned, saying that he wanted to build the world's largest rubber production park in Nanyang. It also attracted a lot of people talking in the newspapers. Now the most famous supporter is Mr. Maibian of Langley Company.

This Mr. Maibian is not an ordinary person either. He came to Shanghai in 1903 and sold all kinds of goods, but the business has never been improved. Until seeing the price of rubber gradually rising, Maibian thought it was an opportunity. In Shanghai, the benefits of rubber are hyped, and they want to make their own money. However, due to his lack of funds, the market reaction was not strong enough, which made him a headache. Now that he meets the well-funded Stry, he is also willing to help Stry to promote the prospect of rubber.

Now he is sitting in his office listening to the news from his subordinates. Boss, I heard that Willis' stock is still not much sold. Most people are still waiting and watching, and they plan to take a look.

After reporting his inquiries to Maibian, the subordinate asked his boss's plans.

Boss, the Willis Company has made a lot of noise. Even the ambassadors know that a new rubber businessman has come to Shanghai and plans to build the largest rubber company. Are we looking at them like this?

You do your own thing, and you don't need to worry about the rest.

Maibian didn't want to explain to him what his subordinates said. In his heart, he was jealous and resentful. He was not as strong as others and could only drink some soup behind others. There was nothing he could do about it.

In the Willis Company they were talking about, Stry and Felix and Stocker were also talking about the current situation.

The situation is good now, at least no one in Shanghai does not know our Willis company. Stry, who was the leader, expressed satisfaction with the current situation.

We have already spent 150,000 pounds, and we only have 600,000 pounds. Stocker, who is mainly in charge of fund management, is a little sad about the current spending. You must know that each of them only has a funding quota of 600,000 yuan, and the remaining 270,000 yuan is used as a reserve fund, which will not be used unless it is an emergency. It has only been a month since he arrived, and he has spent a quarter of it. How can he not feel anxious.

Okay Stockel, this is a necessary expense in the early stage. I calculated that after the first dividend, we should have a great improvement. Stry said his estimate.

I hope so. Stocker said with a little anxiety in his heart.

Hey, don't just focus on work, relax yourself occasionally, it's good for work. Seeing that the two of them were talking about the topic so dull,

Felix intends to liven up the atmosphere.

Okay Felix, I can't relax at all with such a large sum of money now. Stocker's voice became much louder, obviously not interested in Felix's words.

Stockel's words made Felix a little embarrassed.

I'm going to relax with you, are you going to drink or dance. Seeing Stocker's words made Felix a little uncomfortable, Stry remedied him.

Alright, let's have a drink first and then see the charm of Eastern Paris. Felix obviously forgot his unhappiness and said to Stry.

Stockel, are you really not going to go?

Forget it, let's go. I'm going to look at the financial statements. There must be someone guarding our property. Faced with Stry's inquiries to ease the atmosphere, Stocker made a rare joke.

After asking Stocker, the two went all the way to a nearby bar called Old Sailor, sat down in a remote corner, and asked the bartender for two glasses of brandy, and then the two chatted about their experiences in Shanghai.

Do you know, Stry, I once wanted to meet the little-footed women in Qing, so I asked Zhang to take me there. Do you know where he took me? Felix told Stry. Fun thing.

Where did he take you. Stry also wondered about the subsequent development.

After he took me out for rent, he came to a brothel called Lichun Lou and found me a prostitute who was only this tall, Felix continued while gesturing under his chest. The face was covered with thick white powder, and the lips were dyed black, which scared me at the time. Later I found out that she was a little girl who was only thirteen years old. However, her feet were indeed very small, only ten centimeters. I really don't know how it looks like.

and after?

In the face of Stry's questioning, Felix talked about the latter result. I scolded Zhang and gave the little girl a little money. I swore I would never go to that kind of place again.

Ha-ha-ha, Felix is ​​so funny.

Okay Stry, I just wanted to see if I was curious, how did I know it would be like this.

I heard that there is a pretty good club on Huali Road. There are many ladies and ladies in it every day. We can go and have a look. While still at the bar, Felix made arrangements for the next step.

Okay, let's meet these ladies after drinking this cup.

Three months later, Willis Company distributed a dividend of 524 cents per share to the people who bought the stock. This made Willis Rubber Company famous in Shanghai, and Willis' stock was sold out in the world. The profit of rubber also attracted many people to participate in this speculation.

Due to the large amount of capital entering the rubber market, its price also rose to a high price of 329 cents per pound in September, a gap of 8 cents compared with three months ago, which made many people crazy. Things that people have never heard of before are now entering the eyes of the public. Now the Willis Company, which claims to be building the largest rubber plantation, is their main target. A Willis stock of 60 taels on the market has also risen, and it has been demanded to a high price of 80 taels.

The rubber boom now driven by Edel has come early.

(It is estimated that some readers are not very comfortable with describing the scenes of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, and some people have asked this question to Mantou. Mantou has always cared about your thoughts. Let Mantou be self-willed this time, and once Mantou wants to write about the suffering The dream of history. Everyone knows that the website is very stuck on that time period, and steamed bread can only be addicted to this rubber crisis once. After writing this paragraph, I will go back to Europe. Thank you for your willful tolerance of steamed bread. Thank you everyone. .)
