    Looking at Chen Zaixing's leaving figure, Liu Qingyang's face was a bit stunned, as if he had not expected such a violent reaction from the other party, but he soon returned to his usual cold expression.  He picked up the wine glass, took a sip of the remaining wine in the glass, suddenly threw the wine glass in his hand on the ground, and sneered: "Chen Fusheng, Chen Fusheng, do you still think that all the good things in the world should be yours?"  Days later, the dust settled. Twenty-two ships originally belonging to Hanking Merchants were bought by two Shanghai shipping companies, while the ship repair yard was bought by a partnership of more than ten other Nanjing businessmen.  Chen Zaixing, who came from afar, found nothing. He knew very well who was behind all this.  Finally, the first crack appeared in the close relationship between Houde Bank and Shunhua Company.  Shanghai, Shunhua Company Office.  Chen Zaixing sat at the desk, flipping through the account book carefully. Jiang Zhiqing stood aside and carefully observed his boss's face, trying to find some clues from Chen Zaixing's face. Since he accompanied Chen Zaixing to Shanghai last time, he had  He was left in Shanghai to take charge of Shunhua Company's various businesses here.  This young man who has lived in the slums since he was a child knows very well that everything he has now comes from the gift of Chen Zaixing. The big hands that pulled him out of the slums can also throw him back into the swamp in a single thought.  bottom.  The only way to maintain the status quo and continue to climb up is to maintain the trust of the man in front of you. There is no other way.  Finally, Chen Zaixing closed the account book in his hand, put it aside, and said with a smile: "Zhiqing, it seems that you have not been idle in the past six months. In addition to the grain markets in Shanghai, western Zhejiang, eastern Zhejiang, and southern Jiangsu, you have also occupied  Twenty to three percent, you did a good job!" "That's great, sir!" Jiang Zhiqing breathed a sigh of relief and replied cautiously: "I just did my duty!" "If everyone under me can do it!  If you have done your duty, why worry about failure?" Chen Zaixing smiled: "Tell me, how did you open up the grain market in these places?" "Yes, sir!" Jiang Zhiqing bowed to Chen Zaixing:  "In the beginning, I took two guys on my own and took a trip to western Zhejiang. I went to rice shops one by one and asked about them. But when they heard my accent, they wouldn't even let me in. Someone with a better temper asked me to go in.  Let¡¯s go quickly. If you¡¯re bad-tempered, you¡¯ll start yelling. One time, you almost encountered two gangsters who robbed you. If the villain hadn¡¯t brought a pistol at that time, I¡¯m afraid even the bones would have sunk into the river by now!¡± Chen Zaixing couldn¡¯t help but feel amused by what he heard!  He smiled and said, "Businesses like these have been done for hundreds of years. If you rush in so recklessly, you will naturally not look good. The rice merchants in Shanghai are all from Ningbo. If we hadn't borrowed the money that time,  With the power of Mr. Liu of Houde Bank, now even Burmese rice cannot enter Shanghai? Tell me, what method did you use to get in? " "It's easy to say, but I think I have no choice.  , I had no choice but to think of other ways, so I found dozens of storekeepers and clerks from bankrupt rice shops and told them whoever could open up the grain market in a region would give them a commission of three Yingyang per ton of rice.  These guys were so happy when they heard it. Then I gave each of them 20 yuan of travel expenses and assigned these guys to various nearby market towns. "That's it!" Chen Zaixing couldn't help hearing this.  Nodding slightly: "It's also your skill to be able to use the right people. What's the result?" "I'll tell you, sir, a quarter of the people didn't come back after taking the money. Maybe they ran away, maybe they didn't finish it.  Afraid that I would ask them for the 20 yuan for Yingyang's travel expenses; one third of them did well, so I gave them more money to keep running. " "By the way, what about the ones who have been unable to open up the situation?"  "Even if you fire me, no matter how big a store is, you can't raise waste!" "Yes, you can draw up a charter for me later. If there are any other products in the future, you can follow this plan!" "Yes, sir!"  "I must find a job today!" Ma Xingxing tidied up his clothes, rolled up the sleeves that already had rough edges and holes, so that they were less likely to be discovered, took a deep breath, and walked on.  The steps of the small grocery store in front of me.  "Sir, what do you want to buy?" The waiter greeted him enthusiastically and enthusiastically introduced the products in the store to the customer wearing a long gown: "You can tell that you are discerning. We, the Lu family,  The items in the store are cheap and affordable. Look at the iron pot, the bowls, the chopsticks, and the washbasin. They are all exquisite. You can buy them all for only two and a half yuan. If you can find them cheaper than ours in Shanghai.  Yes, come back and tell us, our store will make up the difference for you!¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m not here to buy anything!¡± Ma Xingxing lowered his head in embarrassment, avoiding the surprised look of the waiter. After a moment, he raised his voice.  Courage raised his head again and asked: "Excuse me, do you want more in the store?"?  I can do anything¡ª" "Don't worry, I'm just a clerk in the store. This store doesn't belong to me!  "The waiter interrupted Ma Xingxing. He looked at Ma Xingxing's dress up and down, sneered, turned around and shouted to the shopkeeper who was settling accounts behind the counter: "Shopkeeper, there is a job seeker here!  "The shopkeeper responded, walked out, looked at Ma Xingxing up and down for a while, cupped his hands and asked: "Sir, may I ask where you are from?  Whose last name is it?  What kind of business did you do before?  " "I am from Ningbo. My surname is Ma and I am Mars. I used to work as a bookkeeper in Mihang and also as a shopkeeper in a grocery store. I can write and do calculations. Later, the store collapsed and I lost my livelihood. May I ask, sir, if you have any money here?  There is work to be done!  "Speaking of this, Ma Martian looked at the grocery store manager in front of him with hopeful eyes. "Oh, I am from Ningbo, I have worked as an accountant and a storekeeper¡ª¡ª" the grocery store manager prolonged his voice, smiled slightly, and said to  Ma Xingxing cupped his hands: "Sorry, the shop is not short of people!  " Ma Xingxing became anxious when he heard this. He stepped forward and stretched out his hand to stop the shopkeeper who was walking in. He said anxiously: "Shopkeeper, I can do anything and it doesn't cost much. You can just pay it as you see. Please, show mercy.  Bar!  " "Here, it's not that I'm embarrassing you. It's just that you have worked as an accountant and a shopkeeper before. You can write and do calculations, and the wages you require are small.  If I leave you behind.  What should I do if my boss comes over to meet you one day and asks you to take my seat?  "When the shopkeeper said this, he laughed, pushed aside Ma Xingxing who was blocking the front, walked back to the counter, and said loudly: "Awu, send that gentleman out. If you don't want to buy something, don't block the door and hinder the business!  " "It's your order!  "The guy responded imitating the minions in the drama, walked up to Ma Xingxing, shook the rag on his arm, and sneered: "Here, did you hear what our shopkeeper just said?  please!  " The waiter shook the rag in his hand, and half of Ma Xingxing's face was splashed with dirty water. He wiped his face in embarrassment and walked out of the store. It turned out that since Zhong Zhengchun of Cathay Rice Co., Ltd. hanged himself, the Ningbo Chamber of Commerce, which originally controlled Shanghai,  The rice banks in Shanghai also fell apart, and all the rice banks in Shanghai fell into the hands of a trading company called Shunhua. He had no choice but to follow, but he did not expect that this Shunhua trading company would merge and close these rice banks, leaving only about five.  When three-thirds of the rice was shipped, the shopkeeper named Jiang who had the extra manpower gave each person twenty yuan for travel expenses and sent them to the prefectures and counties around Shanghai to open up the market for Burmese rice.  This is simply unheard of. It should be noted that at that time, Dashun, except for Shanghai, Hanking and other central cities with relatively developed commodity economies, most towns and villages were relatively conservative, and merchants rarely entered the territory of competitors.  It's very simple. The people who run these businesses in every place are businessmen who have been in business for decades or even centuries. It is extremely difficult to break these intricate shackles, and sometimes it even costs blood.  One of Ma Xingxing's colleagues disappeared on the way back from a town. Two days later, someone saw his body on the roadside. His chest and abdomen were stabbed like a hornet's nest. After experiencing this incident, Ma Xingxing became angry again.  He also didn't dare to go to the towns designated for him, so his natural sales performance would not be much better. As a result, he was kicked out by the shopkeeper named Jiang a few months later. Although Ma Martian had some savings, he was in Shanghai after all.  Prices were high, and he already had a wife and children. Seeing his savings dwindling like water, he had to run around every day, trying to find a job, but for some reason, he kept running into obstacles.  On the street, he couldn't help but see his wife's sad face. He just felt like he had a splitting headache. Did he want to go back to his hometown in Ningbo to farm? But he had been traveling to Shanghai since he was ten years old, and the fields and houses in his hometown had long been occupied by his tribe.  Even if the tribe wants to give him a land and house out of respect for his ancestors, he can't withstand the hard work of farming. As he was thinking about it, Ma Xingxing's eyes suddenly darkened.  , was knocked to the ground violently. ¡°Asshole, are you walking without your eyes?  "Jin Sanpang stared angrily at the man lying on the ground. He was just discussing with some of his subordinates which bitch in Changsandangzi had fair skin, a good figure, and good kung fu. As they were chatting in the alley, this guy bumped into him.  A rough voice woke up Ma Xingxing. He looked up and saw several thick men in black police uniforms. The leader of the group had a shiny face and a pair of bull's eyes staring at him fiercely.  . He hurriedly got up and bowed to him: "I was distracted while walking, please forgive me!  "Jin Sanpang snorted coldly. He looked at Ma Xingxing and didn't look like he was in trouble. He was about to wave his hands and tell him to go away. When a subordinate next to him came over and whispered a few words, his eyes suddenly lit up and he sneered.  He asked, "What's your name and what do you do?"  ¡± SupportThe treasure thing is not allowed.
