    "How are you doing, Brother Nijun?" Tokuheitaro asked the person opposite.  At this time, the two were located on the fourth floor of the headquarters of the Edo Tokuhei Bank near Nihonbashi in Edo, instead of at the "Lin no Kan" opened by Tokuhei Taro in Yoshiwara as before.  After hearing Taro Tokuhira's inquiry, the messenger quickly replied: "He is very good." "I contacted Brother Erjun this time mainly because I heard that he can get TV sets. So I want him to get a batch for me."  As Heitaro spoke, he filled the pot with tobacco in his hand and lit it with a match.  Then the messenger smelled a nice smell of burley tobacco.  The envoy looked at the cigarette pouch and pot in Tokuheitaro's hand, which was extremely exquisitely made. The slender tobacco stem was also painted with various delicate patterns, the copper eyebags, and the amber cigarette holder were very delicately made.  Take this thing and wear Japanese style clothes.  Tokuheitaro looks like a Japanese.  Of course, these words could not be said out loud. The envoy asked: "Does Japan already have its own TV station?" "I'm going to set up one." Tokuheitaro replied with a mixture of confidence and laziness while smoking his pipe and pot.  The messenger immediately felt that this was quite interesting, and he continued to ask: "Then how much do you want?" "Get me two thousand units." Tokuhira Taro said as he knocked the ash from his cigarette on the ceramic ashtray.  Lose.  The messenger's facial muscles flicked a few times, but he still resisted the urge to laugh.  Tokuheitaro's behavior reminded the messenger of a movie about feudal landowners.  The master inside is aloof and staged to the point of being artificial.  Tokuheitaro also gave the messenger the same feeling.  Therefore, the envoy was very puzzled. How could a good person change his moral character after arriving in Japan?  The reason why we invited messengers to come and go was because Tokuhira Taro could not be reassured by tools like telegraph.  After the matter was settled and the contact password was determined, the envoy immediately flew directly from Edo to Beijing.  Back in Beijing, the car that came to pick him up took the envoy directly to a hotel.  After entering the private room, I saw 'Brother Erjun' sitting in front of the empty table with a straight face, putting a thin piece of meat on a small fork into his mouth with an unhappy look on his face.  Seeing the envoy come in, 'Brother Erjun' pushed a plate with a few thin slices of meat in front of the envoy, and said with complaint: "In this world, people dare to make raw ham anywhere. It's still the same."  Acorn pork flavor. The country must step up its efforts to crack down on counterfeiting!¡± After hearing these righteous words, the envoy took a look at the paper-thin slices of raw ham. The color was bright, but it was more popular than it had been for 20 years.  The old-style Minchao ham still feels a little impure.  Picking up the small fork on the plate, inserting a piece into his mouth, the messenger couldn't help but frown.  Top-quality raw ham relies on the acorn feed to give the ham its own aroma, the charming nutty taste of hazelnuts, the aged oil that feels like cheese in the mouth, and the smooth, round and fat raw ham is so tender that it melts in the mouth.  Paired with Fenjiu or wine, it makes people addicted and want to stop.  The ham on the plate is either better or worse in all aspects. Taken together, it is greatly inferior. At most, it is just passable.  For ¡®Brother Erjun¡¯, qualified products are unqualified.  Just when the envoy didn't know how to evaluate it, he heard Brother Erjun say sarcastically: "Taro Tokuhira has started to bluster again. Before his father, Yao Bang, stepped down, he dared to do anything. In the past few years, no one has done anything.  People don¡¯t care about him. He has been hiding in Japan for several years. In the past year, he has been recruiting people to invest money, and he has probably regained his strength.  road.  "Hoho! How do you say it?" Brother Erjun immediately became interested.  The envoy told about Tokuheitaro's kimono, the slender pipe and pot that looked like a trick, and various styles that were contrary to the simplicity and practicality of the Min Dynasty.  Brother Erjun was very surprised at first, and then he burst out laughing.  "Haha! I see, this guy turned out to be like this. Interesting!" After laughing, Brother Erjun took the paper handed over by the messenger and looked at it. Then he took out the lighter and wrote on it how many TV sets he bought.  Burn the note.  Seeing the flames engulfing the Arabic numerals 2000, Brother Erjun sneered: "Everyone is asking for TV now, how can I give him so much? Even if I give it, can he give me so much money? If I can't keep it, I still have to pay on credit.  "I'm surprised why people suddenly started buying TVs!" the messenger laughed.  "It's not like the people who made TVs installed TVs first for the leaders. Everyone thought that the things the leaders had must be good, so they followed suit and bought them. Think about it two years ago, everyone just bought whatever they saw. At that time, if  If we have TV, we will definitely be able to sell better. Alaswe didn't catch up with that good time!" Brother Erjun couldn't help sighing at the end.  The envoy laughed a few times in amusement, but he was very disapproving in his heart.  At that time, I, Ziyang, the second army brother, only?? Prime Minister. At that time, everyone's attention was focused on the presidential election that had just begun. The Prime Minister, who had been changing normally for a long time, was no longer the political focus in earlier years.  In addition, Zi Yang had his own ambitions and also restrained his son Erjun brother, which made Erjun brother unable to participate in the last round of criticism.  It's different now. As a large number of people in the country have been dismissed one after another, the majority of the guys who relied on scoundrels to get around have lost their backers.  Brother Erjun took this opportunity to become the most prominent person in the yamen at this time.  Although the second army brother was extremely powerful at this time, in the eyes of the envoy who was also a member of the batch office, the second army brother took more advantage of the general trend, and it was Tokuheitaro who created something.  Even if these things are geisha services, the founder is more valuable.  "This is the contact information and password." The messenger handed another piece of paper to Brother Erjun.  Brother Erjun pushed the paper back, "Since you are responsible for this matter, I will just contact you. I will only discuss how much goods there are and what the price is. As for how much you give Tokuheitaro, that is all your business.  There are too many people who have cheated me. We are brothers and I don¡¯t care how much you earn. I will give you as much as you want.¡± The two talked for a while before ending the meeting.  After the messenger left, Brother Erjun leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh. He also wanted to be righteous and Bo Yuntian, and he also wanted not to be so obsessive about spending money.  But the environment does not allow it. Although the yamen are arrogant to the outside world, they have never been self-disciplined people.  Those self-disciplined people have long since found the profession they want to do, and have been promoted through their own efforts and the help of their families.  Wang Mingshan's son, who is very envious by the local government, is now the owner of a large fleet, but he did a good job in the company before resigning.  ??Those who rely on buying and selling are those who have little talent, or their purpose is just to make money easily and quickly.  Therefore, the profits from buying and selling batches of products cannot satisfy these people. Only by buying the products without paying can they maximize profits.  This is what these grandsons really hope for!  When facing a pack of hungry wolves, you can only deal with them in the same way you face hungry wolves.  Even if it seems unjust, Brother Erjun can only do this.  Two days later, Brother Erjun arrived in Shanghai.  His purpose is to meet Mayor Luo. The TV factory is a state-owned enterprise, and Mayor Luo has a great say here.  Theoretically, the Municipal Party Committee Secretary has more say, but the Municipal Party Committee Secretary is Shen Xin, and Brother Erjun doesn't want to get into trouble with this.  After leaving the train station, I sat in the car heading to the hotel.  Brother Erjun saw that the bicycles on the streets of Shanghai were very distinctive. Some bicycles had very thick belts and a straight handlebar.  Some bikes have slim straps and handlebars shaped like butterflies.  There are also some weird devices on the rear axles of these bicycles, which look completely different from the shapes of bicycles that have been popular for thirty years.  "What's going on with these bicycles?" Brother Erjun asked.  "This is our new variable-speed bicycle launched in Shanghai. It's so expensive! The money you spend on one such bicycle can buy several ordinary bicycles." The local yamen who came to greet the bicycle said proudly.  I wanted to ask, ¡®If it¡¯s so expensive, would anyone buy it?  ¡¯ However, Brother Erjun still held back at the right time. The TV was not big and the price was infinitely more expensive than the radio. There were still people rushing to buy it.  Expensive things have become best-sellers these days, and Brother Erjun feels that his thinking can't help but be a little confused.  It¡¯s not just Brother Erjun who feels confused, but also many cadres of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee are very scared.  Everyone was quite restrained at first and spoke in a well-behaved manner.  Until Mayor Luo said loudly, "Relax when it's time to relax. At this time, do you need to brag?"  Then the atmosphere immediately became lively, and all departments were demonstrating their merits to prove that the links they were responsible for were indispensable.  The feeling of fear was quickly diluted by the warm atmosphere.  Then the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee said: "Your Majesty is worthy of being your Majesty. I feel that my previous view of Your Majesty was incorrect. If Your Majesty has not seen through the needs of the people, how could the people spend money to buy such an expensive TV without government orders?"  And the speed bicycle?" As soon as these words came out, the venue was immediately silent.  In recent years, His Majesty Wei Ze has actually retreated to the second line and faded out of the core of power, so His Majesty Wei Ze's suggestions are no longer equivalent to His Majesty Wei Ze's guarantee.  When Mayor Luo insisted on implementing His Majesty Wei Ze's suggestions, many comrades still broke into cold sweat.  Facts have proved that His Majesty Wei Ze's judgment is still accurate. Even though he has disappeared behind the scenes, the people's choice is still as His Majesty expected.  In this silence, Mayor Luo spoke, "This incident gave me a new understanding of His Majesty. I used to think that Your Majesty was great because everyone was willing to support Him. Now I feel that the older generation is so wholeheartedly supportive.  Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty is not instructing the country to do anything. Your Majesty said that it should respond to the needs of the people and serve the needs of the people. "If it were the past ten years, anyone who dared to say this would definitely be considered a flatterer.  Facts speak louder than words. This time, the cadres of the municipal party committee did not do this again.?? idea.  Before anyone could say anything in agreement, Mayor Luo said: "I am going to send someone to visit Your Majesty again and ask Your Majesty to make predictions about our TV and bicycle industries. I wonder who you think is more suitable?"  The cadres looked at each other and began to consider whether they should volunteer to take on this job.
