Liu Wenxin thought carefully and again, and could only grit his teeth and nod: "I have staked my fortune and life on the Japanese. I don't believe that the small Fengtian government can defeat the Japanese. As long as the Japanese can win, we will
Won’t lose!”
After thinking about the idea, Liu Wenxin hurriedly took out all his savings. Over the years, he had worked for the Japanese, and in addition to his own industry, he had accumulated 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. Now he took it all out without hesitation.
, rent manpower, form a fleet, and go to the countryside to grab soybeans.
However, things are far from being as simple as he imagined. The Fengtian government dared to do this because Zhang Tinglan had accumulated huge resources in the past two years. First of all, he had a huge carriage convoy. This convoy was originally from the 27th Division.
Developed from the transportation team, the business development in the three eastern provinces is getting faster and faster, and there is also huge trade with Russia. Coupled with the existence of the Northern Market, it absorbs materials from all over the world. Therefore, there is a huge demand for transportation. Fengtian appears
There are several large-scale car dealerships.
Some are under the name of Fengtian Welfare Company, which mainly serves the military, and some are under the name of the Industrial Group. In addition, there are professional transportation teams controlled by several major department stores in the North Market. Almost all of these transportation teams are under the supervision of Zhang Tinglan.
As long as the order is given, no matter how tight the transportation capacity is, enough power can be concentrated.
Moreover, these transport fleets have their own specialized management and operation systems, which are very efficient. In addition, the establishment of a large number of purchase points requires a large number of accountants and the cooperation of the local government. These are the unique advantages of Fengjun and the comprador merchants.
Although they are large in number and have relatively strong financial resources, they have limited resources and cannot compete with the Fengtian government.
In addition, these comprador businessmen are not monolithic, they are all cunning and cunning people. Looking at the competition between the Fengtian government and the Japanese this time, it can be said that it is a fight between gods and mortals suffer. There are some smart ones who are unable to work hard. Their main task is
I cried out to Nissin and Santai and asked the Japanese for more financial help.
Of course, there are also loyal ones, like Liu Wenxin. He took out all his family property, spent three times the price than usual, formed a transportation team, and brought a special accountant. He ran to the countryside and went door to door.
of purchasing soybeans.
He worked so hard, but it was not without results. He finally purchased more than three million kilograms of soybeans, which was more than half less than in previous years. It was still a good result, but at this time all the cash in Liu Wen's hands was lost.
He went out and owed a lot of foreign debt.
The harvested soybeans must also be stored in a warehouse. It costs money every day, so Liu Wenxin found Jiao Wuye impatiently.
"Fifth Master, I have collected more than three million kilograms of soybeans now. Please see if it's time to settle the money and send it to the Japanese as soon as possible. Aren't they waiting to use it?"
Jiao Wu looked at him and said with a wry smile: "Old Liu, you are really capable, but I want to remind you that the Japanese don't have enough cash now. So you can either keep these soybeans yourself, or you can
Only bond collateral can be accepted.”
When Liu Wenxin heard this, he immediately felt stupid. He had worked tirelessly these days, running around in the countryside. He had worn out many pairs of soles, and there was still a big hole in the corner of his mouth. After working so hard, the result was nothing.
Cash settlement, isn’t this just a fool’s errand?
In the past, this guy didn't feel uncomfortable at all when sending white notes to farmers. On the contrary, he was extremely proud. But now, the Japanese wanted to send him white notes, and Liu Wenxin was dumbfounded.
"Fifth Master, please don't make such a joke. This villain has staked his fortune and life on it. How can the Japanese do this? Are they still being reasonable?"
"Old Liu, you are also a fool. If the Japanese were reasonable, they should fish on the four islands. How could they go to the three northeastern provinces to make waves? To be honest with you, it's not just you, we are all treated this way.
, I asked the Japanese for funds, and they gave me a lot of bonds, saying that these things would have high returns in the future and would be more cost-effective than giving us cash."
Jiao Wu took out some bonds and placed them in front of Liu Wenxin. He pointed at these things and said: "Even if the bonds can really be used as money, but the people don't recognize this thing, they still have to force us to take money from our pockets. Come on.
After exchanging these bonds, all the wealth I had finally saved was turned into a pile of paper. I don’t know what to do. My heart has been on fire for the past two days!”
Liu Wenxin thought about it carefully, then gritted his teeth and said: "Fifth Master, I believe the Japanese are reputable and will not cheat us just for a small amount of money. Tell me, what is going on with these bonds?"
"This was issued by the Bank of Korea entrusted by Nissin Oil Refinery and Santai Oil Mill. It is said that although the Japanese did not have cash on hand, they did have a batch of bonds. They used the bonds as collateral, and then the Bank of Korea helped issue new bonds.
It is said that this thing has high returns and is more cost-effective than depositing it in a bank, but I don’t know the details.”
Liu Wenxin's golden eyes kept turning, and he secretly made up his mind: "Fifth Master, I believe in the Japanese. Maybe these bonds are a good opportunity to make a fortune. I want them!"
"I would like to say that this is a telegram sent by Governor Wang Yongjiang. Nissin Oil Refinery and Santai Oil Mill used Russian government bonds as collateral and asked the Bank of Korea to help issue a set of soybean bonds. It is said that many of these bonds have failed.
It fell into the hands of those comprador businessmen." Qiao Lanyun introduced the situation to Zhang Tinglan with a smile. After Zhang Tinglan heard the news, he was immediately ecstatic. He hurriedly took the telegram and read it carefully.
Although Nissin Oil Refinery and Santai Oil Mill were hens that laid golden eggs, they did not have much liquidity on hand. Especially during the First World War, the rapid development of Japanese industry required a lot of investment.
Oil companies have invested a lot of money in the country.
Just at the beginning of the year, the February Revolution broke out in Russia. The ruble and Russian bonds all plummeted, and many people were selling. However, at this time, the Japanese, who always like to be clever, discovered that this was a business opportunity.
Russia is so huge, and the Japanese once defeated Russia, but Russia still recovered. Now Russian bonds are plummeting, but as long as Russia stabilizes, they will definitely rise. If you buy the bottom at this time, you may make a lot of money.
.
And at this time, they also received a piece of information, which was a report on mineral resources in the Far East, which contained a large amount of gold, iron ore, copper, and even oil. For the resource-hungry Japanese, see
These things simply made them lose their minds.
At this time, the Russian government also launched a bond that used some of Russia's mineral resources as collateral. The Japanese thought about it and decided to purchase a large amount.
The Japanese also have their own calculations for this decision. If Russia can win the war, there is no doubt that these bonds will become a hot treasure. Even if Russia fails, the Germans will not be able to reach the Far East. On the contrary, the Japanese
They can take advantage of the situation and occupy these precious resources. As for the possible change of government, the Japanese do not care. Just like China changed from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, debt relations still have to be borne, including the Boxer Indemnity and the like.
, so the Japanese did not hesitate to buy a large amount of Russian bonds.
And with Kerensky coming to power, the Russian provisional government began to show signs of stability and launched an attack on Germany. At this time, Russian bonds soared again and were widely sought after, not just by Japanese investors.
Even a group of European and American investors began to value these bonds. This incident made the Japanese very proud, thinking that they had taken a big advantage.
Nissin Oil Refinery and Santai Oil Co., Ltd., as major financiers, also bought tens of millions of bonds. Now that they don't have enough cash, they can only take out these precious Russian bonds and hand them over to North Korea as collateral.
Banks, both Japanese colonial institutions, also need to cooperate with each other. The Bank of Korea helped them issue a batch of soybean bonds to make money and compete with the Fengtian government for financial resources.
However, the so-called soybean bonds did not sell well, and the Japanese could only forcibly distribute the bonds to those comprador businessmen. After Zhang Tinglan saw Wang Yongjiang's telegram, he connected the previous things and immediately figured out what was going on.
.
At this time, Zhang Tinglan was almost overjoyed. The Russian bond itself was a trap set by Zhang Tinglan and Fred to attract the Japanese and Daosheng Bank to jump in. Zhang Tinglan knew very well that Russia would turn red.
, and the majority party regime will not bear the debts of Tsarist Russia at all. On the contrary, they will take it as their own without hesitation. The Japanese's wishful thinking will definitely come to nothing.
In fact, in the original history, after the February Revolution, Russian rubles and bonds were sought after, and many Chinese businessmen bought them. Their idea was very simple. Even though Tsarist Russia was so huge, it would not collapse even if it suffered a little loss. The consequences.
It is conceivable that after the majority party came to power, many investors lost all their money and were on the verge of crying. There were also some who jumped into rivers and wells.
However, in this time and space, Feng Jun took back the Middle East Road, which made many Chinese see clearly the weak nature of Russia. Therefore, not many people took action. Instead, it was because of Zhang Tinglan's report on Far East resources and the release of Fred.
All kinds of false news caused the Japanese to buy a large amount of bonds without hesitation.
As a result, these bonds are now connected to the Nissin Oil Refinery and the Bank of Korea. Zhang Tinglan even has the urge to laugh to the sky. Soon the Russian October Revolution will break out, and then the bonds will become a
If waste paper is piled up, the Japanese oil industry and financial industry will suffer a devastating blow.
Originally, when Zhang Tinglan and the Japanese rushed to buy soybeans, they just wanted to get back some profits and had no intention of killing them all. However, the situation is completely different now. Zhang Tinglan already has an idea to catch them all in one go.
