Chen Zikun was in awe: "General Manager Gong is still a member of Congress.
It is really disrespectful and disrespectful."
Gong Jiaxiang said: "It's ridiculous to say that I didn't run for the election at all.
I was still in the UK, but my parents in my hometown elected me as a member of the House of Representatives.
Thanks to my hometown, I naturally have to fulfill my duties and elect a new president.
Come."
Chen Zikun said: "I don't know who the best candidate is in General Manager Gong's mind."
Gong Jiaxiang said: "The Speaker of the House of Representatives Wu Jinglian sent me a telegram saying that he wanted me to vote for Cao Kun, the envoy to Luyu patrol, and promised 5,000 yuan for travel expenses.
What a joke.
Will I, Gong, be short of 5,000 yuan?"
, Idiot Cao San is a warlord and a great president, huh, he deserves it too."
Gong Zijun on the side was frightened when he heard this.
He had never seen his uncle scold Fang Qiu like this before.
You feel relieved, but the Chen Hujun envoy in front of you is also a warlord, and he is directly connected.
Chen Zikun didn't care at all.
He was not familiar with Mr.
Cao, and he really felt that it was not a good thing for soldiers to interfere in politics.
The elegant financier turned into an angry young man, so that he felt some affinity with him.
Gong Jiaxiang realized that he had lost his composure and laughed at himself: "I'm going too far.
In fact, in my mind, I really don't have a suitable candidate.
Liang Qichao is good at learning, but he is barely successful at politics.
Sun Wen is just a party member."
Among them, Duan Qirui, Cao Kun, Wu Peifu, Tang Jiyao and others are just warriors.
Cen Chunxuan, Zhang Shaozeng, Tang Shaoyi, Tan Yankai and others are not prestigious enough to convince the public.
In such a large Republic of China, there is really no suitable candidate. " Chen Zikun smiled.
Gong Jiaxiang's tone was quite loud, but it was not unreasonable.
Listening to his talk, it was at least clear that this person was familiar with politics and was extremely concerned about the future of the country.
It seemed that he had found the right person.
"Then, General Manager Gong must be abstaining from voting when he comes to Beijing this time," Chen Zikun said.
Gong Jiaxiang shook his head: "As a member of parliament, giving up one's power is dereliction of duty.
Forget it, politics are dark.
Let's not talk about this.
Let's talk about the purpose of the loan.
The military guard came here in person, presumably not just to withdraw money. " Chen Zikun said: "After I withdrew this amount, I went directly to Shanghai to purchase the required equipment and materials.
There are many foreign banks and friends in Shanghai.
I negotiated with the foreign businessmen in person, and I think I can save a lot of money.
To be honest, twenty Wan is just a drop in the bucket for my grand plan, so I can’t do it without saving.”
Gong Jiaxiang was very interested: "I would like to know what the grand blueprint of the Army Protector looks like."
Chen Zikun spoke eloquently: "The initial plan is to mine coal mines first.
With coal mines, we can build thermal power stations.
With electricity, we can draw water from the Huai River to irrigate farmland, grow cotton and wheat, and then open yarn mills and flour mills."
After accumulating funds, I will go into heavy industry, build steel plants, and utilize the iron ore resources in Jiangbei, and then develop railways, highways, and cross-river iron bridges.
I will build Jiangbei into the Ruhr of China."
Gong Jiaxiang's eyes flashed with excitement: "It's really a big deal.
In this way, you can use the 200,000 yuan first.

When the initial results are achieved, we can make additional investment."
"Then thank you, General Manager Gong."
Chen Zikun stretched out his right hand.
"The Guardsman is too polite.
You and I are brothers."
Gong Jiaxiang ignored his nephew's expression and actually wanted to call Chen Zikun brother.
"Haha, brother Jia Xiang, then I will climb the ladder."
Chen Zikun shook hands with the bank general manager and said.
That night Gong Jiaxiang hosted a banquet in the mansion for Chen Zikun and his entourage.
At this time, he completely restored his demeanor as a mature and wise banker.
During the dinner, he chatted and laughed with Chen Zikun and never mentioned politics.
Mrs.
Gong was a Christian and had also studied abroad.
He and Jianbing Yao Yilei We hit it off immediately and had a great conversation.
We agreed to go shopping tomorrow.
Chen Zikun smiled and said: "Madam, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you.
We have already booked our tickets and will rush to Shanghai as soon as possible to purchase supplies."
Mrs.
Gong said: "When you come back, you must stay in the provincial capital for two more days.
I will take my two sisters to have fun."
After staying in the provincial capital for a day, Chen Zikun embarked on a journey to Shanghai with a money order of 200,000 yuan.
The public security in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was good, and there was no need to worry about bandits hijacking cars.
He talked and laughed all the way.
Time flew by and he arrived in the evening.
Shanghai Railway Station.
Li Yaoting received the telegram and personally brought people to pick him up at the station.
This time, Chen Zikun's pomp was even greater than last time.
There were more than 20 people in his entourage, and three cars could not fit in, so he had to temporarily call ten rickshaws.
Chen Zikun and his two ladies were in Li Yaoting's car, and the driver was still the burly man with a sinewy face that he saw last time.
"Si Bao, how are you doing with your marksmanship training?"
Chen Zikun asked him.
Si Bao was very excited.
Chen Zikun actually remembered his name: "Well done, sir, do you want to test me?"
Li Yaoting said: "What is the test?
This is Zhabei Railway Station, not a concession."
Then he said to Chen Zikun: "The marksmanship of the Four Treasures in Shanghai is this."
He stretched out his thumb.
"Not bad, there is a future."
Chen Zikun praised with a smile and got into the car.
Jian Bing found out that Li Yaoting came alone, and that Bing'er who looked similar to him last time was missing, so he asked: "Where are my younger siblings?"
Li Yaoting looked around and talked about him as if there was no such person as Bing'er.
Jian Bing was suspicious but stopped asking.
The motorcade drove across the Waibaidu Bridge and entered the public concession.
The streets were filled with an exotic atmosphere.
The red-headed Ah San was blowing a whistle to direct traffic.

On the right side of the wide riverside avenue were foreign bank buildings, with various national flags flying, except for the five-color flag of China.
Jian Bing is from Shanghai, so he is used to seeing things.
Yao Yilei lived in Shanghai when she was a child, and she is a lady, so she won't make a fuss.
However, the other attendants are too busy and their eyes are not enough.
The prosperity of Shanghai dazzles them.
Breathtaking.
Li Yaoting has moved to a new home.
It is located on a remote road in the French Concession.
It occupies a very large area.
It is a three-story Western-style building like a palace.
The yard is filled with green lawns and fountains, and white Western-style dining chairs are placed under the towering trees. , a shepherd dog wagging its tail stood at the door of the kennel, and servants in white clothes lined up in two columns on the stairs at the door to welcome the owner and distinguished guests.
There are enough rooms to accommodate everyone.
Li Yaoting set up a sumptuous dinner to entertain the guests.
There was a long table, candlesticks, silver tableware, crystal chandeliers, white napkins, and a dazzling array of French meals.
Everything made people feel like they were there.
In the palace, even the well-informed Jian Bing and Yao Yilei were surprised at how big Li Yaoting's business was.
After the dinner, the women went out for a night stroll in Shanghai accompanied by their bodyguards and maids, while the two men stayed at home to talk.
During the meal, Li Yaoting actually wore a serious French evening dress with a bow tie around his neck.
When everyone had dispersed, he put his feet up on the table, pulled off his bow tie and cursed: "I invited a British man.
Butler, it’s so damn tiring to just teach you these things, but when dealing with foreigners, you have to follow this routine, otherwise they won’t let you play and they’ll call you a barbarian.”
Chen Zikun said: "When you were a waiter at the Six Nations Hotel, didn't you yearn for this kind of life in suits and ties all day long?"
Li Yaoting laughed at himself: "Humans, the more they lack something, the more they want to show off.
At that time, people were poor and short-minded, and they were afraid that others would look down on them.
They would wear a pair of trousers during the day and wash them at night.
If they didn't have an iron, they would fill a big teapot with hot water.
If you do your own ironing and wear neat clothes and hats all day long, you are not just a boy.
Now that I think about it, that is called showing off."
Chen Zikun laughed it off.
"Now that I have money, I don't care about this anymore.
I can wear whatever I feel comfortable with.
Who the hell dares to look down on me and immediately stuff it into a sack and throw it into the Huangpu River?"
Li Yaoting's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he stretched out his hands to look at it, "In the past few years, , I have a lot of blood on my hands, but I don’t regret it.
If I don’t kill others, others will kill me.”
Chen Zikun said: "The business has been quite big recently.
Have we established a connection with the Ministry of Transport?"
Li Yaoting smiled: "Director Wu and I hit it off immediately.
He gave me several construction contracts, such as the repair projects of Tianjin Railway Station and Langfang Railway Station, but the money I earned was only a small amount of money.
To be honest, I didn't like it at all.
I just want to maintain relations with Director Wu and the Ministry of Transportation.
The real profitable business is actually " Before he finished speaking, there was a gunshot outside.
Li Yaoting reacted faster than Chen Zikun.
He threw himself on the carpet, pulled out the pistol at the same time, loaded it with a clatter, and stared nervously out of the window.
Chen Zikun also drew his pistol, bent over, turned off the light, and stood guard by the door.
The door opened, and a man came in.
Chen Zikun pressed his pistol against his temple.

"Boss, it's me."
It was Si Bao who spoke.
Li Yaoting put away his gun: "Fibao, what's going on?"
"It's Aqiang.
I've noticed something was wrong with him.
Sure enough, he is the undercover agent over there.
He was sneaking around outside just now and wanted to harm the boss.
He has been killed by the brothers."
Si Bao said.
Chen Zikun turned on the light and saw two tough men dragging a corpse over.
The ground was dripping with blood.
Li Yaoting stepped forward to look at the tattoos on the man's arms and sneered: "It's really the people over there, dragging them."
Go out and feed the dog.”
The dead man was dragged away.
Li Yaoting let out a long breath, took out a white silk handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
He took out two cigars from the sandbox on the fireplace, trimmed them with a gold cigar cutter, and threw them to Chen Zikun.
He said calmly: "Cuban products, very authentic, try it."
The tone was very relaxed, and he seemed not to be affected at all.
Chen Zikun took the cigarette, lit it with a match, took a sip, and said: "You have been deceived.
This should be from Miami.
By the way, I have already guessed your profitable business.
In fact, the reason why I came to Shanghai this time is to I’m looking for your help, I want to do this business too.”
Li Yaoting pondered for a moment and said: "This business is a business that will end my descendants.
I have no choice but to do it.
If I don't do it, I will have no money to support my brothers and no capital to maintain all this.
Everything I have gained through hard work in Shanghai It will disappear, and I will be beaten back to my original shape and become a little Shunzi picking up cigarette butts outside the train station.
But I don’t want to be like this, so I do this business.
What about you, Da Kunzi?”
Chen Zikun said seriously: "The situation I am in is not luxurious enough to be a good person.
For the sake of my ideals, I can kill people like crazy and violate my conscience, so naturally I can do this business."
Li Yaoting burst out laughing: "Fuck, we are both almost literary young people.
We talk like we are reciting lines from a drama.
Isn't it just the tobacco business?
Whoever doesn't do this business in Shanghai is a stick.
Tell me, what's going on?
How to play" Chen Zikun said: "I plant and you sell
