Du Xianyu's study room is full of Western antiques, and the furnishings throughout the room highlight the owner's extraordinary taste. Zhen Yuhuan couldn't put it down after seeing it, and spent a long time looking at the furnishings in Du Xianyu's home.
Li Guolou sat on the single sofa and chatted about the future with Du Xianyu. The two drank Remy Martin as usual. The topic of chat turned to the foreign financial industry.
Li Guolou put down his wine glass and said: "Mr. Dubot, the Qing Dynasty's banks cannot be compared with foreign banks. Now the international financial industry is monopolized by the British Empire Consortium, with Standard Chartered Bank as the leader. It is a pity that Hu Xueyan and Standard Chartered Bank
Qing General Manager Smith; Mr. Wright has such a good relationship that you can’t borrow money from Standard Chartered Bank.”
"Mike, I don't deal with Standard Chartered Bank. Now I'm setting a new goal to establish a good relationship with HSBC. The interest is two and a half, which is okay." Du Xianyu laughed triumphantly as if he saw the moment of success.
Li Guolou and Zhen Yuhuan laughed jealously. They did not have a foreign bank to back them up, so they could only follow Du Xian behind them and cheer for the boss Du.
"Mike, you are responsible for the demolition. I want to break ground in half a year, can you do it?" Du Xianyu, with a momentum that was superior to Li Guolou, gave Li Guolou another order.
"This..." Li Guolou glanced at Du Xianyu. He was just a small shareholder. He seemed to have done a lot of things. He had taken care of the upper privileged class. Now he also had to do the offending work of forced demolition.
If he does it, won't it make him infamous? He also wants to run a charity to defraud money? This must not be done.
After careful consideration, Li Guolou said: "Mr. Dubot, it's okay to leave this matter to me, but you can't use my name as the chairman of the demolition office. My name can't appear in public. Your groundbreaking ceremony,
I can't participate either. I hope you can understand that I am now a ninth-rank official and want to move up. I can demolish all the residents in the Chaoyang area within half a year. I will drive away those Manchus for you.
You can just find a fake foreigner with a bad reputation to be the chairman of the demolition office, and I will hide behind the scenes and direct the demolition office."
"Hahahaha!" Du Xianyu drank it all in one gulp and said with a smile: "Well, boy, I want you to say this. I didn't expect that you were so prosperous in the capital that you even dared to offend the Manchus. As long as you
If you demolish the residents within half a year, I will remember you as your first contribution."
"Boss Du, it seems that Mike is helping you with your sunrise plan. You give people shares without paying for them. What have you done?" Zhen Yuhuan is very dissatisfied with the current situation. Li Guolou is still
As a disadvantaged group, if you get 1% of the dry shares, you have to invest in buying other internal shares.
"Hey! Anita, everything is difficult at the beginning. Now let's apologize to Mike. We are our own people. I will take care of you in the future. Raising such a huge amount of funds has made me rack my brains. Let's get through the difficulties first and work together in the future.
"Get rich." Du Xianyu said it nicely, but he whipped his horse and made Li Guolou the vanguard officer, but the fodder did not keep up.
Li Guolou was unhappy, but he didn't show it on his face. He didn't have enough financial resources, so he could only run errands for others. He pretended to be generous and said: "Mr. Du was the first to support my career.
Anyone who receives a drop of kindness from others will definitely repay it with a spring of water. Don't worry, Mr. Du, I will handle the two matters of approval and demolition beautifully."
Li Guolou did not say clearly that he did these two things for Du Xianyu without expecting anything in return. He just wanted to repay Du Xianyu's favor. From now on, it will be a competition in the business world. Who can win in the end depends on their abilities.
.
Du Xianyu was such a smart person. Of course he heard Li Guolou's voiceover and knew that Li Guolou would not do things for him for free in the future. But he just used Li Guolou's network to get the two preliminary approval documents and the relocation.
If he does the most difficult thing well, things will go smoothly in the future. The project funds are in his hands. It is obvious and self-evident who the final winner will be. Li Guolou will still support him in the future.
The three of them drank a bottle of Remy Martin in the study to celebrate the successful launch of the Chaoyang Project.
Li Guolou and his boss Du arranged a time to celebrate with the investors, and left the garden house of his boss Du without eating lunch. It wasn't that he was unhappy, but that something really happened, and he had agreed upon it when he walked in. Before leaving,
He also arranged a date with the clingy Du Yingying, gave her thoughtful gifts, and then waved goodbye to a group of female relatives.
As soon as she went out, Zhen Yuhuan said: "Mike, do you know what a businessman is?"
"Well, I've expected it. Do you think I've begged Big Brother Du? This kind of thing depends on how Big Brother Du behaves. I'll let him spit it out bit by bit in the future." Li Guolou took one last look at the independent villa.
Garden house, in the future he will build a larger and more luxurious villa in the British Concession.
"Hey, I originally thought I could make a big difference with the money I got from corruption, but it turns out it's just a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning." Only then did Zhen Yuhuan realize that hundreds of thousands of dollars couldn't do much in the business world.
Li Guolou glanced at him and said: "Anita, you are not the only one doing it. Everyone is doing this when they are sitting in their seats. So our ancestors made a rule that you will be fat and thin in turn. Once the seven-year term is up, you will
If you want to step down, you can only stay in office unless you make an indelible contribution to the country like my uncle did."
"I know, your uncle doesn't love you, but I love you. I'm going to see Prince Gong right now to support you." Zhen Yuhuan wanted to run for the little man Li Guolou, so she went to beg her old lover, Prime Minister Gong.
Prince Yixin.
"Well, it's better for you, little darling." Li Guolou leaned over and kissed Zhen Yuhuan, using his beauty trick to the extreme, just like him, climbing up without shame.
The two of them boarded the carriage and went to Baozhifang for lunch. Li Guolou's family returned from visiting the Old Summer Palace today and had agreed to have a dinner at Baozhifang.
"What's so good about the Old Summer Palace! They have fun, but I don't know how much money they have to spend." Li Guolou was heartbroken. High-end places like the Old Summer Palace were owned by the eunuchs of the imperial palace. The maids served the ladies for three days.
The entertainment is of high standard, and the price is also the highest-end consumer.
"Mike, don't feel bad. It's okay that we are in a group this time. The eunuch leading the group can just give some tips and buy some handicrafts. If you go to play with a small number of people, you will be brutally killed by the dead eunuchs. They will not even give you a first-grade life."
Madam is also slaughtered, and those relatives of the emperor can't escape for the sake of face." Zhen Yuhuan comforted Li Guolou, it was rare for high consumption, so don't think about money.
"But it's all my money." Li Guolou was not willing to lose his money. After seeing Qionglou Embroidered Pavilion, he took home only spiritual wealth.
"Huh! You're so stingy, I'll tell grandma to go." Zhen Yuhuan couldn't stand the stinginess of Li Guolou's thieves. In her opinion, it's decent to earn a lot of money.
"Hey, grandma has been led astray by you. Only by saving money can you open a charity hall. You don't look like people who do good deeds." Li Guolou followed his guidance and warned Zhen Yuhuan how to behave.
Zhen Yuhuan snuggled into Li Guolou's arms like a little bird, and cooed: "Well, I see, pretending to care for the poor, didn't you adopt a pair of gangsters? I don't have any other requirements for them. They must learn to behave in public.
Speaking of human beings, our opening chapter depends on those two stubborn thieves."
Xiao Shitou and Shi Yatou, brother and sister, stayed in the courtyard of the Wei Mansion. Of course, Li Guolou did not forget them. He hired a husband for them and taught them the most basic principles of life. Although reading and literacy are a little more difficult, they are slowly improving.
Progress. From a black household registration to a Li family living in Beijing with a household registration name, working is a must, but they are still allowed to work part-time and learn to be good people.
"Anita, don't say it's so ugly to pretend. Many things are just pretending. Habits become natural and gradually become what you think in your heart. With our energy, we can save many orphans. We are rare good people in the world.
Ah, God will bless our family with peace and harmony, Amen!" Li Guolou did not forget the power of faith, and started from the inner house to transform a group of cunning and insidious women into virtuous and virtuous women.
"Mike, you are much better than those princes who only seek fame and reputation. They only give porridge and train slaves. But you want to change the backward and poor society. God bless us. Amen!" Since Zhen Yuhuan followed Li Guolou, he has not had much time to learn.
Change your faith and become a Catholic.
Li Guolou looked out the window with deep eyes. The breath of spring was getting stronger and stronger, but he felt that time was pressing. Everyone was racking their brains to make money, but he was still too far away from people like Hu Xueyan. Hu Xueyan
He opened a "Hu Qingyutang" and gained a good reputation among the working people. Compared with Hu Xueyan's pioneering work, the charity hall he ran was nothing to mention.
"Anita, you said we should invite people to come to the bank now, what are the chances of success?" The ambitious Li Guolou wanted to become fat in one breath, and he was about to act haphazardly.
"Well;;;;;; we can complement each other with our ability to deceive people and let many super wealthy people deposit money, but the risk is too great. There is no lending business when the money is deposited, and there will be a heavy burden to pay interest. I'm afraid
We can't go around." Zhen Yuhuan was trembling with excitement, staring at Li Guolou in horror, her appetite was too big, no wonder she would do such unspeakable things as boundless love.
"Anita, to tell you the truth, the land in the Shanghai Concession once skyrocketed due to the Xiaodao Society. Later, because the Xiaodao Society was eliminated by the Huai Army, many people who speculated on the land in the concession went bankrupt." Li Guolou suddenly changed the subject.
Turn around and go somewhere else.
Zhen Yuhuan nodded and said: "This incident tells us not to be too greedy. Many foreign banks and famous money banks have gone bankrupt because of this incident."
Li Guolou smiled and said: "But haven't you seen the business opportunities? The land in the Shanghai Concession has increased four times compared with the past. This is an indisputable fact. But the land in the Tianjin Concession has only increased by half, and the price difference in this area is too big.
.So as long as we cheat money in and lend money to businessmen, we still have to bear the risk. It is better to invest all the money in the bank into the concession real estate in Tianjin. When we buy enough land, we will release the news. By then, the Tianjin concession will
The land is guaranteed to increase three times a day, and it won't be a big problem if it doubles."
Zhen Yuhuan looked at Li Guolou with wide eyes, stumbled and asked: "Mike, you are too courageous. If you don't make a fuss, your life and fortune will be at risk."
"But Anita, the banking industry is the right way, with millions and tens of millions of silver. How much money does the Charity Hall have? Ten or twenty thousand silver. I don't know how many dinners it will hold. It will be a hassle." Li Guolou raised his head.
, looking like he is going to die in a righteous way, ready to earn a fortune with all his life, regardless of the distance between his net worth and the banker, he will become a big fat man first.
"Mike!" Zhen Yuhuan's eyes became blurred, and she hugged Li Guolou like a wolf and kissed her wildly. She was unwilling to stop and breathe, and she had to keep this little man under her. How many times could she fight in life?
