Chapter 619 Song Ziwen Was Assassinated!
The Shiliupu Wharf was crowded with people.
The human crane unloaded bags of wheat and corn onto the shore, and the porters lined up to transport them.
Not far away, there were many onlookers, beating gongs and drums, shouting loudly, and even dancing lions to celebrate.
Situ Feifei, the beloved daughter of Mr. Situ Meitang, the big brother of the Hongmen in the United States, walked off the overtime with her head held high. The followers behind her held up a loud speaker and shouted: "The Hongmen Zhigongtang and all Chinese Americans donate 20,000 tons of wheat and 20,000 tons of corn to the Chinese compatriots affected by the flood!"
"Mr. Situ Meitang personally donated 10,000 tons of corn and 10,000 tons of wheat!"
"This batch of disaster relief food has now all arrived in Shanghai. May our country be peaceful and the people be safe, and the disaster-stricken compatriots will get through the disaster as soon as possible!"
"Good!"
"Who says that the Hongmen is worse than the Qing Gang? Mr. Situ sponsored Mr. Sun at the beginning, and today he is helping with disaster relief. Whoever talks about the Hongmen in the north and south in the future, I will be angry with him!"
The onlookers kept cheering, and some celebrities followed and shouted, applauding.
Tens of thousands of tons of food are actually just a drop in the bucket for this flood, but compared with those warlords who are still bullying in their nests, Situ Meitang's assistance is no different from sending charcoal in the snow.
Zhang Qun and Bai Xiongqi walked over and held Situ Feifei's hand, saying excitedly: "Miss Feifei, we thank you on behalf of all the victims, thank you to everyone in the Hongmen Zhigongtang, and Mr. Situ!"
"If you want to thank someone, thank the second young master. If it weren't for his help in transporting grain and contacting vendors, we wouldn't be able to deliver the relief grain so smoothly."
After marrying Xu Wenqiang, Situ Feifei restrained her temperament as a young lady, and now she looks like a virtuous woman who follows her husband wherever he goes.
Fang Yanyun, who was also in the crowd, felt very uncomfortable. She knew that there was no possibility for her and Xu Wenqiang, but every time she had something to do with him, she couldn't help but watch and listen.
It's a pity that flowers will never bloom again, and people will never be young again.
Fang Yanyun chose to abandon him at the beginning, and would rather be Feng Jingyao's unofficial lover. At that time, she was destined to have no fate with Xu Wenqiang.
Countless grains were unloaded from ocean-going cargo ships in waves, piled up like mountains and seemed to never be transported away, which shocked the onlookers.
The same scene also happened at the Tianjin Port Terminal. The next day, the second and third batches of disaster relief grains arrived in Tianjin City to assist Zhang Hanqing in helping the victims in the northern region.
The worst-hit areas were the Jianghuai region, while the northern region was relatively better off, but it was almost a terrifying situation of cannibalism.
In the following days, major newspapers across the country reported on a series of relief actions by Ye's Investment. Old newspapers such as Shenbao and Xinwenbao even used a whole page to describe the good deeds of Ye's Charity Foundation.
Shenbao praised him generously: "China is facing a flood that is rare in a century. People from all walks of life have donated generously. It is said that the second young master has donated 200,000 tons of grain personally, making him the first tycoon in the Republic of China!"
Under the control of public opinion by Ye's newspapers, and with the cooperation of the propaganda department of the Jinling National Government, Ye Luo created new business circles in Qing City, Shandong Province and other places, and the repair of water conservancy projects was also known one after another.
The name of the first tycoon in the Republic of China gradually spread, and more and more people began to admit and actively spread the news.
Song Ziwen also immediately issued an announcement that he had purchased 450,000 tons of wheat on credit from the US government, all thanks to the cooperation of Ye's investment and Livermore Group. At least for this flood, there is no need to worry about food.
Things have come to this point.
The most unlucky ones are Han Fuju and those high-ranking Kuomintang officials who had blocked Huixin.
They have become rats crossing the street that everyone shouts and beats. Wherever someone praises Ye Luo, they will be pulled out and whipped.
It is true that for these people, the pressure of public opinion alone cannot affect their lives at all, but in the Republic of China, if you lose the support of the people and your reputation, it is impossible to go further.
At least in the north, Han Fuju's reputation plummeted, and he was not even worthy of cleaning Zhang Hanqing's ass.
On the Shanghai beach.
Many military and political leaders from Jinling gathered together.
They have no ability to provide disaster relief, but they are first-class in sharing the credit.
The disaster relief in the south depends entirely on Ye Luo and Hui Xin. Originally, Bai Xiongqi thought that he, the deputy mayor, should take the first share of this credit-
Who let his brother-in-law make the effort!
But at this time, Song Ziwen brought Tang Yulu and this group of dignitaries to Shanghai.
They said they were inspecting the disaster relief situation, but in fact they were here to share the credit.
Bai Xiongqi had to swallow his anger and reluctantly give up some of the credit.
Who let the other party be the principal's brother-in-law!
Song Ziwen has been very happy these days. Anyway, the burden on him has been lifted. He just needs to slowly advance the progress of disaster relief.
He was originally worried that Ye Luo's younger sister would not be reliable, but after several conversations, he was shocked to find that.
The Ye family is full of outstanding people in this generation!
Needless to say, Ye Luo.
Ye Hao, who is guarding Shanghai, now controls both the black and white worlds, and his momentum is greater than that of Ye Yuqiao in the past.
This youngest sister, Ye Qingqing, also earned the reputation of a female Bodhisattva of the Ye family by running the Ye Charity Foundation.
After finishing these things, Song Ziwen said goodbye to everyone and took Tang Yulu to Shanghai Railway Station to take a train back to Jinling.
Tang Yulu, who graduated from Harvard University with a master's degree in economics, officially served as Song Ziwen's confidential secretary in 1930 and was deeply trusted by Song Ziwen.
On June 3 this year, Tang Yulu and Tan Duan, the niece of Tan Yankai, the former president of the Executive Yuan of the Nanjing National Government, held their wedding in Tian'an Hall. The two lived in Shanghai.
Tang Yulu has been urging her sister Tang Ying to continue to run to the Ye family recently.
Ye Luo has several concubines: Xiao Aqiao, Meng Xiaodong, Lin Ruxian, Ruan Lingyu, etc.
There are countless confidantes.
Among these women, many are as good-looking and capable as Tang Ying.
Even if Tang Ying is a concubine, Tang Yulu thinks it is worthwhile.
However, Tang Ying is thin-skinned, and there is another Feng Chengcheng in the same situation. The two of them huddled together for warmth, so it was not so uncomfortable.
Tang Yulu was very angry. Just as his parents were hospitalized in Nanjing, he left his wife and prepared to follow Song Ziwen back to Nanjing.
The two followed the motorcade to the railway station. At this time, due to the disaster relief, there were crowds of people, and the platform was full of foreigners with accents from all over the country.
Song Ziwen and Tang Yulu were both wearing white suits and white Napoleon-style hats, but Song Ziwen was empty-handed, while Tang Yulu was holding a briefcase.
"Okay, everyone, just send us here, we can get on the car by ourselves." Song Ziwen turned around and smiled and responded to the senior officials who saw them off.
"Minister Song, take care." They also smiled and surrounded the two to the platform.
"Minister." When Tang Yulu was about to say something, a few shouts suddenly broke out from the crowd.
"Go to hell, Song Ziwen!"
"Traitor, damn it!"
"Chiang, Song, Kong, and Chen, the four great traitors!"
Several masked black-clad assassins rushed out of the crowd, shouting and raising their pistols, focusing their firepower on Tang Yulu, and countless bullets poured out instantly!
Tang Yulu fell to the ground, covered in blood, and his white suit suddenly turned red.
The accompanying intelligence agent immediately counterattacked and covered Song Ziwen behind a pillar.
Police sirens blared on the platform, and the police from the Songhu Police Department rushed into the waiting room.
Masked killers Hua Kezhi, Zheng Baozhen and others saw Tang Yulu lying in a pool of blood, and thought that the mission was accomplished, so they threw smoke bombs and took the opportunity to evacuate! (End of this chapter)
