Chapter 270: Farewell to Shanghai (1)

The news that Li Zhen Dasheng is about to return has spread throughout Shanghai.

Not only that, the news that Li Zhenrong was promoted to the governor of Guangzhou also spread throughout the county. The people were happy and happy, but they were also reluctant to give up. For ordinary people, what they asked for was very simple. They just needed someone who was good to the people. Officials, even officials who do nothing during their tenure, are within the acceptable range of the people.

During Li Zhen's tenure as Shanghai Daotai, he put down the rebellion in Shanghai, stabilized the situation in Shanghai, changed the situation of foreigners walking sideways in Shanghai, and also developed Shanghai's economy, giving the people of Shanghai a stable living environment and generous income. The income has greatly improved the people's lives, and the people are grateful for everything.

Now that Li Zhen is leaving, the people are feeling a lot of reluctance.

The people were the most kind-hearted people. Even when they were reluctant to leave, they knew that this was a good thing for Li Zhen, and they all congratulated Li Zhen. The whole of Shanghai was immersed in joy.

Concession area, Gu Lina’s small bungalow.

On the second floor, Gu Lina held her chin and sat at the round table, looking at an empty cup in front of her in a daze. She had already learned that Li Zhen was about to leave for Guangzhou to take up his post, and she felt more love for her lover in her heart. Guan Jinjue was happy, but she had an uncontrollable feeling. Everything about her was in Shanghai. What should she do after Li Zhen went to Guangzhou?

Li Zhen stayed in Shanghai and she could see him whenever she wanted, but now she felt like Li Zhen had disappeared like wine in a glass.

"Ding, ding,."

There was a sound of heels clicking on the stairs, and Gulina's maid walked up.

The voice was very clear, but Gu Lina turned a deaf ear.

Gu Lina clearly understood that if she gave up her job and followed Li Zhen, she would have nothing to do and would be completely reduced to a vase placed in the backyard. Gu Lina didn't want this. She wanted to be Li Zhen's woman and also have something. Do your own thing.

How to do it.

Gu Lina thought of abandoning her foundation in Shanghai and developing again in Guangzhou.

However, the Guangzhou Thirteenth Group had long formed a local business circle. Even if she had the intention, she was unable to integrate into it. In other words, even if she went to Guangzhou, she would eventually become a vase with nothing to do.

How to choose.

This time, Gu Lina really faced a test.

"Miss, General Li has been promoted. You should be happy. Why are you so depressed?" The maid stood nearby with a puzzled look on her face. The issues the maid considered were not those of Gu Lina, and the maid subconsciously thought that Li Zhen was going to After leaving Guangzhou, Gu Lina should also go to Guangzhou. The maid didn't pay attention to business matters at all.

Hearing this, Gu Lina sighed: "You have been with me for so long, and you know about business. I have established a firm foothold in Shanghai. When I went to Guangzhou, I was blinded. Guangzhou has its own business circle, and I want to It's impossible to integrate in. If we give up our foundation in Shanghai and go to Guangzhou, it won't be long before it goes bankrupt. I like General Li and I want to do my own thing."

The maid suddenly smiled and said nonchalantly: "Miss, this is very simple. You can ask Mr. Blair. He is the most knowledgeable person and will definitely have a way."

"yes."

Gu Lina's eyes lit up and she immediately ordered: "Invite Blair over immediately."

The maid took cat steps, swung her big butt, swayed her small waist, and quickly went downstairs. Not long after, footsteps came from downstairs again, but this time the footsteps were extremely calm. Gu Lina knew It's Blair here.

"I've met Miss."

Blair walked up and saluted respectfully.

Gu Lina waved her hand and said: "Sit down and say, you must already know the reason why I came to you. I don't want to abandon Li Zhen now, nor do I want to abandon the foundation I created. Is there anything you can do?"

Blair smiled and said: "Even if the lady doesn't ask, I will still take the time to talk about this issue."

"Oh, what do you think?" Gu Lina said happily.

Blair said unhurriedly: "Li Zhen went from a Taoist priest in a county to the governor of Guangzhou. He was promoted repeatedly. It is said that heroes emerge from troubled times. Li Zhen is such a person. He rose to the top with the help of the war. Good luck and a good opportunity."

Gu Lina frowned, what did she mean?

Blair did not explain, but continued: "I know what Miss is worried about. She is worried about abandoning the foundation of Shanghai and going to Guangzhou to get nothing. To use the old Chinese saying, Miss is in the game and did not see the situation clearly. Everyone knows that Miss is General Li’s wife. I don’t think it will be difficult for Miss to go to Guangzhou to continue doing business. On the contrary, I can take care of both Shanghai and Guangzhou, thus expanding Miss’ business.”

"The reason lies with General Li."

"The Admiral of Guangzhou is an official with real power and controls the military power of Guangzhou."

"Everyone wants to curry favor with such a person."

"However, businessmen are all shrewd people. They know that it is not easy to flatter people from the front, so they will try their best to attack from the side. When the lady goes to Guangzhou, she only needs to do one thing, spread the news that the lady is the general's woman, and everything will be solved. , when the time comes, Miss will only leave one trustworthy person in Shanghai, and then head to Guangzhou with her belongings."

Blair squinted his eyes slightly with a scheming expression, obviously seeing the situation clearly.

Hearing this, Gu Lina nodded.

Immediately, Gu Lina shook her head again and said: "What you said makes sense, but you overlooked one thing. If I do things in the name of the general, it may have an impact on him. What if something bad happens?" The impact would be bad."

Blair put his hand on his forehead and sighed softly.

A shrewd woman like Gu Lina still became stupid after encountering emotional problems.

Blair said: "Miss, if you want to go to Guangzhou to do business, you will definitely encounter barriers and rejection by Guangzhou businessmen. However, with the help of General Li's official position as Admiral of Guangzhou, you can easily integrate and gain a foothold in Guangzhou. In fact, Miss should Please understand, if Miss has established a foothold in Guangzhou, it is equivalent to Li Zhen gaining a foothold in Guangzhou. This is a concept."

"This is what Li Zhenle sees."

"Businessmen from Shanghai encountered obstacles from the chamber of commerce when they went to Guangzhou. In the same way, officials from Shanghai who went to take office in Guangzhou were ostracized by local officials. Moreover, Li Zhen was an extremely powerful figure, and he was eliminated as soon as he arrived in Shanghai. At the time, Shanghai Daotai Yang Nengge also coerced Jiangsu Governor Xu Naizhao. These things will definitely reach the ears of Guangzhou officials."

After Blair talked for a long time, he said earnestly: "If Li Zhen wants to establish himself in Guangzhou, he needs to open up the situation. Miss sending people to Guangzhou first is the key to opening up the situation. This is good for Miss and good for Li Zhen. It is mutually beneficial." of."

After listening to this, Gu Lina let out a long sigh of relief.

Gu Lina was not an indecisive person. She immediately said after making a decision: "Blair, leave the business in Shanghai to the people below. Go to Guangzhou first and develop the situation in Guangzhou."

"yes."

After hearing this, Blair bowed and retreated.

Gu Lina stayed alone on the second floor, but a bright smile appeared on her face.
