Chapter 606 Troublemaker Wang Starts to Stir up Trouble
At this unique dinner, Ye Luo gave Kong Lingjun a good lesson, and also opened the eyes of Lu Zuofu and others who had previously doubted his series of behaviors.
They were still worried about Huang Yunhui and Thomson's one-handed cover, and the second young master talked about the arms business with Liu Xiang.
After finalizing these things, everyone ate and drank for a while. Liu Xiang left the table first on the grounds of busy official business, and others also left the hotel one after another.
Only Kong Lingjun was still feasting on a table of Sichuan cuisine, like a starving ghost reincarnated.
The little girl has lived in Jinling and Shanghai for a long time, and most of the food she eats is sweet. Recently, she has frequently come into contact with hot pot and other spicy and refreshing foods, and she can't stop eating them all of a sudden.
"The food in this restaurant tastes good. Baby, you go to the store manager later and say that I am willing to buy it for 100,000 yuan."
Ye Luo wiped his mouth, drank a sip of soup, and decided the ownership of this largest restaurant in Qing City while chatting and laughing.
"Okay~" Xiao Aqiao also likes shopping, but she mostly goes to department stores to shop around. She rarely buys anything she sees that she thinks is good like Ye Luo does.
In fact, Ye Luo has to think carefully before buying anything. After eating in this restaurant several times, he was surprised that its taste was ahead of most restaurants in the Republic of China. He also regretted that he could not taste the most famous Jianghu cuisine of Qing City in later generations.
Jianghu cuisine is a special food of Qing City, with a strong local flavor of Bashu. It originated from many street shops and gradually became popular throughout Bashu through word of mouth.
The spicy chicken, beer duck, and dried radish fried with bacon that are very popular in later generations are all delicacies that must be tasted in Jianghu cuisine.
Since he was determined to change the business world of Qing City, Ye Luo simply turned the food industry upside down.
When he first arrived in Qing City that day and ate hot pot with two beauties, he planned to rectify the catering industry and give ordinary people more opportunities to make a living.
After buying this big restaurant, he will buy all the surrounding shops one by one, and then let the construction team demolish them all, and build an authentic Sichuan and Chongqing style food street.
This will also allow the roadside stalls crowded in the streets below to move here, freeing up space for future military facilities such as air-raid shelters.
"Teacher always has some weird ideas, but it's very interesting!" If it were the previous Kong Lingjun, she wouldn't care about the lives of the people below, she just wanted to be happy.
But as she stayed longer and longer in the Ye family, Ye Luo and the Ye family's sympathy for ordinary people gradually infected her.
"Okay, then the food street will be left to you. You can ask your sister Jianqiao for manpower, and you can ask your godmother for money. How long do you think it will take to help me build it?"
Ye Luo changed the subject and looked at her with a smile.
Kong Lingjun panicked immediately, hesitating and unable to speak, looking at Xiao Aqiao for help.
Xiao Aqiao said quickly, "Hubby, Lingjun is only twelve years old."
"What's wrong with twelve years old? When I was twelve years old, I helped Jing Ruishan build an amusement park, bought Fengming Tower, and also found you at Shiliupu Wharf!"
Ye Luo shamelessly displayed his glorious deeds.
"Since you want to inherit the mantle of my second young master, the young lady of the Kong family must also show some strength, right?"
"Hmm." Kong Lingjun wanted to and didn't want to, so he had to nod gently while eating.
"Three months, at most three months. If you can't build it, I will send you back to Jinling Qielu." Ye Luo raised three fingers and issued an ultimatum.
"I don't want to go back to Qielu!" Kong Lingjun waved her hand quickly. She used to like to find another godmother-the principal's wife, but after staying for a long time, she felt that Qielu was less interesting than her own home.
How can it be fun to follow the teacher!
"Then do it for me." Ye Luo patted Kong Lingjun's little head, feeling the pleasure of assigning a lot of winter and summer vacation homework to the little guy.
May 27, 1931.
Ye Luo, who had been quiet for a long time, finally made all kinds of moves.
He first severely punished a group of Chinese businessmen who chose to surrender to Huang Yunhui that day, and "gentlemanly" took all their assets into his pocket.
Before Huang Yunhui could react, he called Shanghai and asked George to contact Patton, the British Consul General in Shanghai, and find the British Minister and Ambassador in China through Patton's relationship. Under coercion and inducement, he asked them to help put pressure on the British in Qing City.
If you want to ask why the British Minister and Ambassador would help obediently, this is the horror of money power.
Ye Luo used money that they could not refuse, plus some scandals that they could not make public in China, and used both soft and hard tactics. These foreigners soon became unable to resist and had to obey his arrangements.
As a former superpower that is on the decline, Britain's current voice and combat power are not as good as those of the United States. There are many politicians in the United States who support Ye Luo. They don't have to completely become enemies with Ye Luo for a mere Thomson.
In fact, if there was enough time, Ye Luo would use a more gentle method to boil the frog in warm water, rather than using this method that would tear their faces apart to forcefully achieve the goal.
Unfortunately, time does not allow it.
Just today, the Jiangcheng National Government was established, becoming the second center in the country, and also issued an anti-Chiang declaration.
After Wang learned that Hu Hanmin was under house arrest, he immediately published an "Important Declaration for Hu Hanmin's Imprisonment", in which he severely criticized the principal and expressed that he and Hu Hanmin had put aside their past grudges and cooperated to fight against Chiang.
Li Zongren and the Xishan Conference Group of the Guangxi clique also joined the anti-Chiang joint camp, and the anti-Chiang situation in Guangdong and Guangxi was formed. The principal adopted a strategy of division and disintegration against the Jiangcheng National Government, which forced Ningyue to fight.
The impact of this incident was so great that anyone who had any connection with the two forces was swept up in it.
Ye Luo and Zhang Hanqing could not stay out of it. The former was strongly resisted by the business community in Jiangcheng because of his good relationship with Jinling.
Even in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions, there were radical remarks to overthrow Ye's investment and overthrow the principal's running dogs.
Zhang Hanqing could not make peace with this matter, so he had to send a telegram to express his support for the principal and asked Wang and others not to take the opportunity to cause civil unrest again.
As a result of this incident, he could have withdrawn his troops back to the north in the past two months, but due to the tense situation, he had to continue to station troops outside and wait and see.
If it were not for the September 18th Incident initiated by the Japanese invaders in September, this incident would have developed into a civil war comparable to the Central Plains War.
At the same time, the Tax Police Corps allocated three battalions, led by Liu Fangwu, the prototype of the "dead dead" Long Wenjian in "My Regiment, My Regiment", and headed towards Qing City with light equipment.
Huang Yunhui finally realized how powerful Ye Luo was recently. He was beaten black and blue with one combination of punches after another, and he couldn't react, and they were all open tricks.
What about the health audits that come every other day, the land hooligans making trouble, the newspapers and magazines accusing the quality of the Huang family's industry, etc. In short, Ye Luo always has a way to make something to give him a headache.
Just when Huang Yunhui was busy dealing with it, Kong Lingjun bought the Qing City Hotel in his personal capacity, and also swept away an entire street nearby.
Huang Yunhui felt that he was too busy to see.
How could a twelve-year-old girl take out hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy so many houses?
Even if she was Kong Xiangxi's daughter, it was too outrageous.
What's even more outrageous is yet to come. Kong Lingjun went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register a company. The staff of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau were confused, but they dared not disobey.
Who made her father Kong Xiangxi the Minister of Industry and Commerce of the Jinling National Government!
Their immediate superior's immediate superior's immediate superior
Anyway, she is the eldest daughter who can't be offended!
A series of actions all indicate that Ye Luo is about to go to war with the Huang family. Huang Yunhui couldn't sit still and ran directly to the General Administration of Customs.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the door of the General Administration of Customs, he was notified that the former director Thomson was dismissed. The order was issued by the British ambassador to China, saying that Thomson had personal economic problems and had to be dismissed and investigated first!
This is like a big joke.
Everyone knows that no one who works in customs will have a clean ass.
If you use this reason to investigate people, you might as well just arrest them!
"Something is wrong!" Huang Yunhui finally panicked. (End of this chapter)
