Chapter 416 Zhen Family's Past 【Thanks haseoyy Wan
"Oh~~, this is a bit exaggerated~~~",
As soon as Fat Wei heard Mu Hye say this, he immediately laughed.
"How can a man who runs a bank and has never blown up a bunker or fought against the Japanese become so famous and still be respected by the Chinese? It's too exaggerated~~
Besides, Chief Mu, are you also concerned about the affairs of the Zhang family, the Li family, and Hutonggen?
Logically speaking, this shouldn’t be something that catches your eye!”
"Haha~~~",
Mu Hyuk smiled and flicked the ashes from his cigarette:
"This is my job. My job content itself is intelligence collection~~~
No matter how big or small something is, as long as it is news, we all have to care about it. Let’s put it this way, even if a neighbor’s dog died today, I have to think carefully about how the dog died? Is it someone outside who wants to
When you want to get close to me, you will poison the dog to death..."
"Hey~~~, then it's hard enough for you to live all this time!!!!"
Fat Wei said with a smile:
"I asked you why you always look like a lurking spy. I've seen it on TV, but I didn't expect there to be someone like you!
I have admired agents since I was a child, so you are really my idol. You have to take a photo with me later~~~"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense!"
Chen Zhi stopped Fat Wei's nonsense, and then said to Mu He: "Go on, what is it that makes the Zhen family famous?"
"This is a real thing that few people in China know!!!"
Muhe blew out a smoke ring and said softly:
"At that time, the Japanese occupied Peiping, and the city of Beijing was in chaos. Many wealthy people who had been doing business for generations chose to store their things with the Zhen family in Beijing, and then their families fled abroad~~~
Even though Zhen's dishes are small, they are just like a jar with a small mouth, but the base inside is very big.
It is said that at that time, the old man of the Zhen family took his whole family to guard Peiping to guard the valuables of these rich people. The underground warehouse was filled with rare treasures.
Among these treasures, the most famous one is the heirloom of the jade king at that time, the large jade tripod inlaid with gold~~~~
It is said that it is a treasure in the jade world. It is a large jade tripod weighing 200 kilograms. It is made of fine Kunlun jade and is inlaid with jade and pure gold. It is flawless and very expensive. It can be called a national treasure!!!
But because the tripod was too heavy, King Jade's family was about to flee to the United States, and they could no longer take the heirloom with them, so they had to keep it in the Zhen family.
Before leaving, the jade king said: This jade tripod is not only a legacy of his family, but also a national treasure of China. As a last resort, even if it is smashed, it cannot fall into the hands of the Japanese.
However, the old man of the Zhen family promised that he would do his best to preserve it and return it to Zhao intact when the Jade King returns~~
In fact, it is estimated that when the Jade King left at that time, he did not expect to get the tripod back one day. This was just an empty promise~~, but the Zhen family solemnly accepted the deal.
In the future, the Japanese occupied Peiping. It is said that the Japanese Minister of Foreign Defense at that time was a man who knew jade. He had heard about this jade tripod and came to Zhen's house to ask for it.
The old man of the Zhen family insisted that the tripod was not here and refused to hand it over.
The Japanese minister exploded on the spot, saying that the old man of the Zhen family did not know how to commend himself, and asked him whether he wanted the lives of the whole family or this jade tripod. He was given one night to think about it. On the next day, he had to give
Otherwise, they will be burned to death by fire...
As a result, the old man of the Zhen family made a decision that day and pretended to agree to the Japanese request. That night, he asked the whole family to pack up their gold and silver, fled the house, and went to Hong Kong.
The big cauldron was too heavy to carry away. Finally, before the Japanese broke in, the old man of the Zhen family held the big cauldron and sank to the bottom of the Shahe River~~
After that, the Zhen family kept this matter extremely secret and did not publicize it to the outside world. They did not even pay tribute to Mr. Zhen. It was not that the righteous deed done by the old man was not worthy of publicity, but that before the jade king's family came to pick up the goods, they still had to ensure that this
The safety of Jade Cauldron.
Later, after liberation, the descendants of the Jade King came back from the United States, and after the Zhen family was sure that they were descendants of the Jade King, people salvaged Mr. Zhen's bones from the river.
When it was fished out, Master Zhen’s body had already turned into withered bones, but there was a heavy rope tied around his ankle, and the other end was still firmly connected to the jade tripod..."
"Ouch, is this true?",
After hearing Mu He's words, Fat Wei couldn't help but respect this master of the Zhen family from the bottom of his heart:
"How else can I open a private bank? This is really not an ordinary person. This old man can be regarded as a national hero~~
But this old man is a bit too stubborn. Human life is more valuable than things after all~~~How can you drown yourself just for a thing!"
"This is not a question of whether it is expensive~~~, but a question of commitment~~~",
Mu Hyuk shook his head and said:
"The old man of the Zhen family did not drown for a jade tripod, but he chose to sacrifice his life for the Zhen family's hundreds of years of trust!
What he values is faith!!!!
So since this incident spread, everyone has had a problem in their hearts. Even if the Zhen family charges extremely high storage fees, there is still an endless stream of rich people from all over Southeast Asia who come to store their belongings. This is what they exchanged for their blood and lives.
credibility~~"
"It seems that this private bank does have more connections than we thought!",
Since just now, Chen Zhi has been listening to Mu Hye's words silently. After thinking for a while, he raised his head and said:
“So this matter cannot be delayed and must be resolved very quickly, at any cost!!
Once we delay, there will be unexpected pressure, and once the organization is exposed, we will be in trouble..."
"Don't tell me this!",
Mu He suddenly raised his hand to stop Chen Zhi's words, and then looked at Ye Qing who had not entered the room:
"Don't forget my identity. I can only stand in a neutral position and mediate everyone's relationships and conflicts. I can't care about what you do specifically. I don't know what the organization is...
And Xiaoye...",
When Mu He said this, he turned to look at Ye Qing who was standing outside the door:
"Xiaoye has been with me for a long time, but he is an outsider. Sometimes we can't speak clearly. Don't make it difficult for him~~"
"But we have no time to worry about this!!!"
Chen Zhi said to Mu Hyuk with a serious expression:
“If it’s really like what you said, then it’s probably very difficult for this bank to speak up and they can only use tough measures!!
Can you invite people from the Zhen family to meet with us on a high-level basis?"
"...",
Mu He didn't speak after hearing Chen Zhi's request. He held the cigarette in his hand, took a few puffs, frowned slightly, and nodded gently to Chen Zhi:
"I'll give it a try, but we agreed in advance that I can only be a middleman, and I have no right to force anyone to do something they don't want to do, but that is legal.
So after meeting with them, I will leave the scene and you can talk among yourselves...
But there is one thing I want to make clear. If you want to do something, you can’t do it in front of me. It’s best to wait until they leave before you deal with it..."
