Troubled World Merchant

Chapter 30

Ye Shaojun left sadly that night again, Duan Jintang ignored him, just treat him like a nephew.His life became busy. He had a college classmate who came back from studying in Japan. He chased him for several blocks, you son of a bitch, took my money to go to Japan to pick up girls, and now that the girl didn't get him, he came to cheat me of my money again.

Fan Dongxu, a respectable young master, was very angry at being beaten up like this by his father, and wandered in the street with his breath blocked. Because he had no money to go to restaurants, he could only wander in the street, wanting to buy a pack of cigarettes. The little boy who sold cigarettes saw him in a panic Looking at him hesitantly, Young Master Fan snorted angrily: "What are you looking at, I have a lot of money!" The little boy was very shrewd, and looked at him with dark eyes: "Then please pay first, Mr. One ocean."

Fan Dongxu was furious: "You wait for me." The little boy waited for him to take out the money, and Fan Xudong became more and more confident, there was not a single copper coin in his beige suit, the little boy saw through him and ran away with a smile Now, Fan Dongxu angrily took his top hat and threw him at him. The two of them chasing each other on the street was really funny. Duan Jintang recognized Fan Xudong without his hat. Fan Xudong had curly hair, not the kind of perm popular nowadays , but he was born with small circles all the way to the top of his head. When he was in school, his classmates laughed at him, and Duan Jintang even nicknamed him "Baa Baa Sheep".

Duan Jintang asked the driver to reverse the car, Fan Dongxu bent down to pick up the top hat and saw Duan Jintang looking at him with his hands outstretched, Fan Dongxu naturally knew Duan Jintang, he loved beauties, regardless of gender, Duan Jintang used to be outstanding in their class, even though Academic performance is reciprocal.

Fan Dongxu looked at him with some excitement: "Chaoxi? Chaoxi, it's really you!" Duan Jintang held his head and said nothing. He couldn't remember his name, but only remembered his nickname, but nicknames are not easy to call , are so grown up.Fan Dongxu happily ignored it, and stepped forward to give him a Western-style hug, but Duan Jintang was sitting in the car, Fan Dongxu hugged the car door, Duan Jintang finally said: "Old classmate, it really is you, I will Say it looks like you. You are..."

Fan Dongxu sighed: "I quarreled with my father. The old man didn't give me face at all and drove me out of the house." Duan Jintang laughed and opened the car door for him: "Go and sit with me for a while." Fan Dongxu is a lively and cheerful person. , Chattering along the way, Duan Jintang led him to the Moming Tower and still didn't hear him mention his name, so Duan Jintang called him his old classmate all the way.Fan Dongxu belatedly asked: "Don't call your old classmates and old classmates, you are more born, just call me by my name." Duan Jintang took a look: "I forgot your name." Fan Dongxu finally fell into a sad silence for a while .

Duan Jintang asked someone to serve him tea: "Okay, old classmate, drink some tea." Fan Dongxu took a sip and said, "My name is Fan Dongxu, and my name is Zixuan. You used to call me..." "Baa baa" Duan Jintang took it , Fan Dongxu finally smiled: "Yes, that's it. Don't you still know me?" Duan Jintang rolled his eyes at him: "If I didn't know you, why would I stop?"

Fan Dongxu smiled: "Yes, yes, what are you doing now?" Duan Jintang blew on the tea: "It's still the same, relying on ancestral property to live. What about you, I remember you went to study in Japan two years ago, and now you must be full of talent and apply what you have learned. Right." Fan Dongxu cut his throat and muttered embarrassingly: "What, nothing can be done." Duan Jintang laughed: "No way, I remember you said at that time that you want to get a job in science and serve the country through industry."

Fan Dongxu's eyes lit up again when he heard these two words: "Yes, I went to study abroad because I wanted to save the country through industry. I studied chemistry at Imperial University, and I wanted to apply what I learned to start a chemical and soda factory. That Antique father closed his mind, holding on to his coffin and refusing to give it to me. Even if I am full of ambitions, I can't use it."

Duan Jintang also wanted to nod when he heard his ambition. Your father will not give it to you. It is simply unrealistic to open a chemical soda plant. Fan Dongxu saw him nodding and hurriedly said: "You also think I have this idea. OK, right?"

Duan Jintang sighed, and Fan Dongxu continued: "China is now in a time when everything is going to waste. Since the revolution in the south, enterprises in the south have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. Spinning mills, cotton factories, grain and oil factories, noodle factories, etc. in the future These things will all replace our current small shops. My dad is lucky that he is the vice president and has no business acumen. He keeps a cloth shop and refuses to reform. I have told him many times that his small workshop Sooner or later, it will be squeezed out by the spinning mill."

Duan Jintang was puzzled: "Your home is not considered a small workshop." This silk shop is not under the name of Fan's, and his sister's silk shop is fortunately not on the same street as theirs, otherwise it will be subject to criticism. shock.

Fan Dongxu was dismissive of his family's property, and he was eager to show Duan Jintang his knowledge: "Jintang! This is a moment when a nation desperately needs to be inspired. How can I be idle? I learned it. How can those things be idle! How I want to build a factory."

Duan Jintang heard that none of the factories he mentioned seemed to be related to chemistry. Duan Jintang didn’t learn well in school, so he couldn’t help asking: “Then what can you do with the chemistry you learned? For example, how can you apply it in my teahouse? .”

Fan Xudong was full of enthusiasm and got stuck. What he learned was really useless to the teahouse. However, Fan Dongxu looked around the teahouse. Duan Jintang was very good at calculating accounts since he was in school. It's worse than killing him, so he should have made a lot of money over the years.

Fan Dongxu fixed his eager eyes on him: "My dear brother, you and I will join hands to start a big business. The two of us will build a big factory, and within a few years we will become the biggest entrepreneur in Tianjin City. Let's serve our motherland."

Duan Jintang put down the tea unhurriedly, and looked at him sincerely: "Brother, although I can't make a lot of money in this teahouse, it is still possible to raise Xiongtai, if Xiongtai has nowhere to go, you can come to my place. Fan Dongxu looked at him aggrievedly: "My dear brother, do you think I'm talking big?"

Duan Jintang shook his head: "No, it's just that my business philosophy is different from that of brother Taiwan. Brother Taiwan has big ambitions, but I have no big ambitions. I only want to maintain my family property. It is enough not to lose. Brother, I admire brother Taiwan's dedication to serve the country. Heart, but I..."

Fan Dongxu grabbed his hand: "It's enough for a good brother to have this kind of heart. Don't worry, as long as you are willing to work with me, my father will definitely agree. My father even mentioned you the day before yesterday." Duan Jintang said loudly: "What about me?"

Fan Dongxu coughed like his father: "You scoundrel, if you lived half as the young master of the former president of the chamber of commerce, my Fan family would not let you fail like this! You prodigal son! I I'll kill you... I'll omit a bunch of bad guys later." Duan Jintang almost choked on Fan Dongxu's imitative imitation: "Brother, you're also considered a talent."

Fan Dongxu looked at Duan Jintang's office. His office was magnificent enough. Fan Dongxu sighed: "You run this teahouse well." Duan Jintang also smiled: "If you don't dislike it, come to me. There is a shortage of talents here now, talents like you who have returned from studying abroad." He didn't see Fan Dongxu's real skills, but he took a fancy to Fan Dongxu's education, and he took a fancy to Fan Dongxu's father, the vice president of the chamber of commerce.

Fan Dongxu hesitated for a while: "You really don't want to set up a factory with me?" Duan Jintang nodded with great certainty. He didn't even want to invest in expanding the tea shop. How could it be possible to set up a factory with him? It is very good to set up a factory in the south , but he has the backing of the government, not to mention that he is a warlord in the north, and he doesn't even have a decent backer. If he is added, he may offend the Feng family.The Feng family still doesn't know what to do with him. Duan Jintang thinks of the Feng family's heart at this moment without joy and only with a heavy heart. He is an extremely realistic person, greedy for vanity but also knows how much he is, and it is his time to provoke Feng Wanying. Dazed, dizzy because of Ye Shaojun.

When Fan Dongxu saw Duan Jintang's face darken, he immediately became honest. After returning to China, his great talent was hit by walls everywhere. As soon as his little face turned cold, he felt that the surrounding temperature had dropped by several degrees. That was really... Fan Dongxu shivered with a layer of frozen lumps all over his body: "Okay, I'll come, I'll come to you. You said I need What am I doing?"

Duan Jintang glanced at him: "Do you know Japanese?" Fan Dongxu nodded shyly, he must use it when he picks up girls.Duan Jintang nodded immediately: "I need a secretary." Fan Dongxu opened his mouth: "I can do other things too." Duan Jintang looked up at him: "Can make tea?" Fan Dongxu twitched the corners of his mouth: "Can drink tea." Duan Jintang asked again: "Will it be stocked?" Fan Dongxu waited for him and said, "I am a senior management talent who has returned from studying abroad."

Duan Jintang smiled: "That's fine, the chairman's secretary and translator, senior talent." Fan Dongxu's tall man finally stepped down, well, it's better than living on the streets, better than letting his father call him a prodigal every day.Besides, he can continue to lobby Duan Jintang, and he must set up a factory with him to save the country through industry.
