"Shun Qing, my uncle is not young anymore, and the position of president is not easy to sit in. It requires hard work. I am now busy with the investment company, and I am already a little dizzy. You can't treat your uncle like a cow."
Use it!"
Since the completion of the Limin Textile Factory, Bai Kuan has been somewhat contented and wants to enjoy peace and happiness, so he is not enthusiastic about the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce. However, Qiao Yu knows that he wants to use the Chamber of Commerce as a guise to bring Chongqing's communities
With control in hand, he must have a president who is devoted to him, and Bai Kuan is the best candidate, so he advised his uncle.
"Uncle, what are you talking about? You are getting stronger and stronger now. In the past six months, your old wrinkles have reduced a lot. There will be no problem in working for another twenty years. And you are always willing to give up the general to Huang Baiwan
Huh? I already know from Tony, an Englishman, that he was the one who instigated Tony to go to the prefect’s Yamen to find trouble for us. If he becomes the president, wouldn’t we be even more disadvantaged?"
When Bai Kuan heard that the previous incident was actually caused by Huang Baiwan, he was immediately filled with anger and said angrily: "Is that person named Huang willing to eat foreign food? He also instigates foreigners to harm our own people.
?”
Qiao Cheng also came with his third brother to persuade Bai Kuan. When he saw that his uncle was relenting, he hurriedly said: "Uncle, Shunqing is right. Huang Baiwan has already regarded himself as a foreigner and joined a foreign religion.
You can't just watch this scourge become the president of the Chamber of Commerce. Our industry has just started, and there is a lot of investment. The one that can really make a profit is the Limin Textile Factory. The rest will have to wait for a while. It seems that our momentum is very strong.
It is big and has strong momentum, but the foundation is not yet solid. If you can become the president of the Chamber of Commerce, you can integrate the entire Chongqing business community, and then we don’t have to worry about anyone!"
"You two brothers are indeed brothers. You are both full of great truths. I, old man, can't you just listen to your advice? But I have to say something ugly up front. There are some big things that you have to make up your own mind, Shun Qing. My uncle is just going to be the one to do it.
It’s just a tablet, I’ll give you a place to occupy it!”
After completing Bai Kuan's work, Qiao Yu felt relieved. Huang Wanwan's advantage was not big, so Qiao Yu focused on training the Youth Guards. Qiao Cheng had also recruited them from the countryside.
Although the requirements for a thousand young people with innocent wealth are not as strict as those of young guards, the recruits are all good young men and their quality is not bad.
Qiao Yu has been training the teenagers for more than a month, and has already achieved initial results. Several outstanding teenagers have emerged from them. Wang Huai was born in Orion and has a very high talent for shooting. After getting the Mauser rifle, with a little training, many of them hit the mark with perfect accuracy.
It's almost the same. Li Jingyuan and Zhang Zili both know a few words and have strong learning ability, and they quickly stand out. There is also a young man named Liu Yunhong, who comes from a martial arts family and is the strongest and strongest.
Qiao Yu is also outstanding among teenagers. After observation, Qiao Yu selected forty people from these teenagers and established four vanguard squads. Wang Huai and other four teenagers became the captains of these four squads, and the rest
The young men are still trained by Han Yong, and the selected ones are all trained by Qiao Yu. Both the depth and intensity of training have been greatly improved.
Although Qiao Yu did not expect to train these teenagers into special forces, he also hoped that they would become excellent officers in the future. Moreover, it was not just simple training, but also frequent heart-to-heart talks, and he told these teenagers some of his ideas in a quiet and clear way.
The corruption of the imperial court, the greed of local officials, the disorganization of the revolutionary party, and the power of Western countries were all told to them, allowing them to have a broad perspective.
The election day for the Chamber of Commerce was coming in three days. When Qiao Yu was training on the school field, Wang Tianhe suddenly came to Qiao Yu in a hurry...
"Master, things at the Chamber of Commerce have changed!"
Qiao Yu is very concerned about the Chamber of Commerce. If the business is well run, he can reasonably own an armed force and get financial support. He will definitely not allow any changes to happen, so he hurried to the school grounds with Wang Tianhe.
outside.
"what is going on?"
"Master, you asked me to send people to sneak into the guild to find out the news. I sent two teenagers to lurk in. Today I received news that Gu Jinhu, the president of Chongqing Ge Lao Hui, suddenly ordered the people of Ge Lao Hui to gather together. It seems that there is
What a big move, he accidentally discovered that Huang Wanwan seemed to have visited Gu Jinhu, and several Japanese people also went to see Gu Jinhu. Gu Jinhu also said that he would support Huang Wanwan! He felt that the matter was important, so he reported it to me.
Well, I suspect that Huang Wanwan wants to use Brother Laohui to help him seize the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce!"
When Qiao Yu heard this, his brows furrowed. Wang Tianhe's analysis was very reasonable. Although Ge Laohui was just a bunch of ragtag groups, there were still a few Japanese people who deserved more attention!
"Tianhe, please continue to send more people to investigate their plans clearly, so that you know yourself and the enemy!"
Qiao Yu originally thought that the election of the Chamber of Commerce would be a very easy thing, but unexpectedly something unexpected happened. That's good! He will meet the figures of this era and see what level they have!
Three days passed quickly, and the day for the Chamber of Commerce's election has arrived. Businessmen of all sizes in Chongqing came to the mansion of Chairman Li Yaoting. Li Yaoting now does not live in the mansion, but in the Liyuan Villa, but today
It was a big day for the Chamber of Commerce election, and the old man personally returned to the mansion to take charge of things. The Li Mansion was unusually solemn and occupied a large area, so it was fully able to entertain these businessmen.
Mr. Li Yaotang is seventy-five years old, a rare longevity in this era. All the reception of guests was left to his second son Li Heyang. At about nine o'clock, Qiao Yu accompanied Bai Kuan to the Li Mansion, and there were many businessmen coming and going.
Seeing Qiao Yu and Bai Kuan arriving, they both came over to say hello.
"Lao Bai, Mr. Shun, you are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Boss Wang, you're welcome! You look more and more energetic!" It's Wang Dongcheng who is here. He can be regarded as the businessman who has cooperated most thoroughly with Qiao Yu. Originally, with his worth, he could compete for the president of the Chamber of Commerce, but he still took the initiative.
He gave in and left the opportunity to Bai Kuan.
"Shun Qing, now you are like a phoenix in the sky, and I am like a sparrow. I am just grabbing your feathers and drinking soup! Isn't this energy and energy given by Mr. Qiao?"
"Boss Wang, aren't you looking down on me? After the election, I still have something to discuss with you. I hope you'll show me your face then!"
Wang Dongcheng understood it. He took the initiative to praise Qiao Yu not just for business interests. Now, whether it is Limin Textile Factory, garment factory, or printing and dyeing factory, they have begun to make profits, and the profit value is more than Wang Dongcheng's imagination. In the bottom of his heart, Wang Dongcheng
I am very lucky to be able to form an alliance with the Qiao family.
The other businessmen nodded secretly when they saw this. Although Li Yaoting has a rich net worth, Bai Kuan and Wang Dongcheng are not weaker than Li Yaoting in terms of strength. Now that they are so close, it seems that the president of the chamber of commerce has been confirmed, and he is still
Why don't you quickly curry favor? At this moment, Wang Gui, Xue Shan, Zhang Fuxiang, Yang Xuecheng and other shareholders of Sichuan Investment Company gathered one after another. Everyone had a brief exchange. There is no doubt that these people have completely formed an alliance. This emerging
The forces are showing their unity and strength to the Chongqing business community.
At this moment, a sound came from the door of the mansion. It turned out that Mr. Li came out to greet him in person. Although he was a little hunched over, he was still very tall, with wrinkles on his face and snow-white eyebrows. He already needed help when walking.
, but there is still a glint in his old eyes. This old man can dominate the Chongqing business world, and he is not a simple person.
"Mr. Li, how dare you come to meet us personally? Our sin is too great!"
Both Bai Kuan and Wang Dongcheng hurried over to help the old man, and the old man said with a smile on his face: "Shu Ren, you have built factories and developed industry in the past half year, and your achievements have far exceeded my more than ten years of hard work. You are really a formidable young man. The old man is not only here to welcome you.
, but I want to thank you for the prosperity of industry and commerce. This is a major event that benefits Sichuan people. How could I not come to welcome you."
