What he was thinking about was, Shigui, whether you can have a stable career, solve my troubles, and let me keep my factory depends on your ability!
Generally speaking, Luan Shigui is a relatively honest police chief. Therefore, when he drinks this cup of coffee slowly, it is difficult to say what he wants to say. On the other hand, he also knows his father-in-law too well.
In Shanghai, Longda Textile Company is a relatively large and advanced textile company.
It can be said that this textile company is Jiang Dachen's life's work.
This can be seen from the process of him taking himself to visit.
When Jiang Dachen was young, he was just an insignificant bank clerk. After work, he was always looking for ways and opportunities to make a fortune. In 1917, he saw the opportunity and spent all his savings to acquire a small textile company that was on the verge of bankruptcy.
factory and worked hard to run it.
At that time, World War I had just ended, and the price of gray fabrics was rising.
On the other hand, the United States began dumping large amounts of cotton into the Chinese market. The cotton business has always been dominated by the British. They purchased it from India at a low price and sold it at a high price in China. This has been going on for more than a hundred years.
Now the Americans suddenly expanded cotton trade with China, causing cotton prices to plummet.
At the right time, Jiang Dachen bought cotton at a low price and sold gray cloth at a high price, making a lot of money.
The problem was that he believed that the textile industry would continue to be prosperous forever. Therefore, he once again poured all his savings into it, attracted many shareholders, and began to expand the factory, purchase advanced textile machinery, and prepare to start a big business.
Unexpectedly, the situation reversed. In the 1930s, Japan invaded Northeast China, causing unrest in Asia. And Europe also fell into turmoil due to the rise of the German Nazi Party.
As a result, the price of cotton rose sharply, while the price of gray cloth fell. His Longda Textile Company suddenly fell into trouble and was on the verge of bankruptcy. This was Jiang Dachen's situation at this time.
According to Luan Shigui, Jiang Dachen is in urgent need of a sum of funds to help him get out of trouble.
But what Jiang Dachen himself knows better is that what he needs is a dominant shareholder, preferably Zhang Sulin! In this way, he can suppress the shareholders and creditors who are forcing him to go bankrupt!
Therefore, the father-in-law and son-in-law have different ideas.
"Dad, do you want to hear what I say?" Luan Shigui tried his best to sound sincere.
"You said it, I'm listening." Jiang Dachen stared at him calmly.
"I...I really feel sorry for Juhua." What he was thinking about was still that little fairy Tian Ajuan.
"Shigui, you don't have to say this, okay. I'm a man too, I understand." Jiang Dachen looked at him meaningfully.
"That's great. Dad, you are reasonable. As a family, what can we discuss?"
"I'm discussing with you right now, right?" Jiang Dachen smiled lightly.
"That's right, that's right. Dad, you are short of funds. How about I help you find a major shareholder?"
"Shigui, what I want is Boss Zhang. He has big funds and his words have weight!" His expression became serious.
"Dad, Boss Zhang...he's hard to talk about." Luan Shigui was really in a dilemma.
He knows very well what kind of person Zhang Sulin is. He is not a good person, so why would he come to fill this hole?
His father-in-law's stubbornness really embarrassed him. He looked at Jiang Dachen in great distress.
"Without him, my Ronda won't be able to get better!" Jiang Dachen said firmly: "If Lunda can't get better, I will have nothing! Shigui, this must be the result! I failed! Juhua can't get better either! So, for Juhua
Think about it, you should also be an ordinary citizen in the future. Only in this way can you two continue to be a couple. Is this the reason for nobles in the world?"
Jiang Dachen almost threatened Luan Shigui with his career, and he was straightforward! In the meantime, Tian Ajuan is no longer important. It can even be said that as long as you help me get rid of Zhang Sulin, Tian Ajuan will not matter at all!
However, Luan Shigui is also in a dilemma. Everything else is easy to deal with, but Zhang Sulin is difficult to deal with. This man is not a good person! He can eat you alive without even spitting out the bones! He thought so.
They talked like this again and again. Luan Shigui understood that it would be difficult for him to convince his father-in-law. He was extremely anxious about this. His father-in-law used his position as director to suppress him! He simply didn't know what to do.

While Jiang Dachen and Luan Shigui, the son-in-law, were having a difficult discussion in the back room, a guest came quietly to the outer room, Takesuke Kawakami.
This morning, when he was sitting on the dilapidated sailboat, eating breakfast brought by the sailors, and looking at the majestic and turbulent sea in the distance, a wanton and cold smile appeared on his face.
Against the gradually brightening sky, he saw large and small warships scattered across the vast horizon.
He estimated that there were about thirty ships. It was truly spectacular!
Kawakami was a naval officer after all, so he could generally recognize those warships.
There were three aircraft carriers among them. They were: Ryujo, Hosho and Kaga. He roughly calculated that there were a total of 135 carrier-based aircraft on these aircraft carriers! Once they took off, they could literally cover the sky.
!
There are also six heavy cruisers. They are: Izumo, Nachi, Aoba, Myoko, Takao and Maya. Izumo is the flagship of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet.
The teacher is here today to meet with Lieutenant General Kiyoshi Hasegawa, the commander of the Third Fleet, to discuss the teacher's "Demon Sword Plan"! Once a war breaks out in Shanghai, the giant cannons on these heavy cruisers alone can destroy everything!
In addition, there are more than a dozen light cruisers and gunboats on the sea. He can't remember their names, but he knows that their firepower is powerful enough! They can turn Shanghai into rubble!
At nine o'clock in the morning, he drove the motorboat and sent Mr. Sato to the cargo terminal on the south side of Shiliupu Pier.
There are many masts and masts on the cargo dock, and cargo ships of various sizes shuttle back and forth. The dock workers loading and unloading cargo are in ragged clothes and have dark faces, carrying bags and bags up and down the gangplank. Therefore, Sato is dressed as a beggar and is inconspicuous here.
Sato walked into a pile of goods covered with tarpaulin, glanced around, and then looked back at Kawakami, with a cold light shining in his eyes.
He said in a hoarse voice: "Kawakami, let's start taking action tonight."
He was silent for a moment and then said: "You, and Qiu Jin, must be careful and make sure you don't make any mistakes!"
Kawakami nodded vigorously, "Teacher, please rest assured, Akitsu and I promise to implement your plan! There will be no mistakes!"
The teacher nodded, turned and left. He wanted to return to the streets and continue to observe his targets.
Kawakami, on the other hand, must accurately implement the "Demon Sword Plan". He believes that the teacher's "Demon Sword Plan" will definitely work!
Kawakami watched the teacher go away and left the dock.

Kawakami returned to his residence in Guangfulong, changed into a pair of clean clothes, and went directly to Longda Textile Company.
Kawakami knew that Jiang Dachen of Longda Textile Company was also a part of the "Demon Sword Project".
He has long seen that Jiang Dachen's role is just to join in the fun of the "Demon Sword Project"! The more exciting the "Demon Sword Project" is, the better!
At this time, He Baotian, who was sitting in Jiang Dachen's outer room, saw Kawakami coming in. He immediately stood up and said respectfully: "Mr. Lan, you are here."
Although Kawakami's suit is a bit older, it is clean and neatly pressed. His hair is still short and he looks very capable. He is carrying a black leather bag, like a company manager who comes to discuss business.
He smiled and asked in an easy-going manner: "Mr. He, is Chairman Jiang here?"
He Baotian asked him to sit down, made him a cup of tea, and then whispered: "I'm talking to his son-in-law inside."
Kawakami nodded, indicating that he understood.
He seemed to see He Baotian's uneasiness, and asked again: "Mr. He is fine?"
He Baotian stretched his head forward, looked at him with caution and fear, and whispered: "Mr. Lanting, the business we are doing seems... not very good, right? At noon, I received a call from Secretary Geng of the municipal government.
The phone call said that people from the Intelligence Department of the Military Commission were interrogating Wang Changchun. I heard that the interrogation was very brutal, and Wang Changchun was even beaten. The people over there are forcing him to speak!"
"Mr. He, are you nervous?" Kawakami looked at him with a smile.
"Tell me, what should I do if that Wang Changchun opens his mouth? I'm afraid Secretary Geng won't be able to protect him, right?"
He Baotian looked at Kawakami in horror, as if trying to find a guarantee of safety on his face.
A smile appeared on Kawakami's face. He knew in his heart that the twenty volumes of files stolen by Geng Jizhi and Wang Changchun had given the Japanese Naval Intelligence Department a complete grasp of the Chinese government's policies and military strategies towards Japan.
The teacher greatly appreciated the twenty volumes of files and thought he had done a good job.
As for the He Baotian in front of him, Kawakami paid no attention to him!
However, he is also a small part of the "Demon Sword Plan", just like Jiang Dachen, just to join in the fun. Therefore, he has to appease this pretty boy appropriately and let him play a role when needed.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "Mr. He, that Secretary Wang looks very weak, but he is actually a sensible person. He will definitely not talk nonsense. Don't worry, please tell Mr. Geng so that he can rest assured too.
Nothing will happen to them."
He thought for a while and then said: "Mr. He, you have received a lot of reward, right? You can leave Shanghai with Miss Tian at any time. What else do you have to worry about?"
He Baotian actually agreed with this. He got a large sum of money from Lan Ting.
It would be even better if we could get another sum of money from Jiang Dachen through Ajuan.
He was indeed planning to fly away with Ajuan and leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
At this time, Luan Shigui in the back room tried hard again and again, but failed to reach an agreement with his old father-in-law, so he became frustrated. He did not even say hello to He Baotian, and left alone.
Jiang Dachen appeared at the door of the back room, his face a little gloomy. He looked at Kawakami, nodded to him, and said, "Mr. Lanting, you are here, please come in and sit down."
Kawakami nodded to He Baotian, got up and entered the back room.
