Longqi 1924

Chapter 166 The Anxious Rong Brothers

Luo Wancai was shocked and said in a low voice, "Mingli, are you sure you heard it correctly? This is a big deal!"

Jia Mingli said aggrievedly, "Brother-in-law, if you usually doubt me, it's okay. This time I naturally understand the importance of the matter. I dare to swear to God that it's absolutely true."

Chen Jiaju said, "Mr. Luo, I think this matter is true. If we weren't afraid of the exposure of the conspiracy, how could those people be so vicious to Mr. Jia?"

Jia Mingli hesitated and said, "It's not that I'm rude to my husband, but if the news is true, how can those people let him go so easily? I know best those cruel guys."

Several members of the guard behind Chen Jiaju looked at each other and laughed. Only then did Luo Wan wake up and patted his head repeatedly, "It's rude, it's really rude!" Luo forgot that Mr. Chen still has such a good soldier and a strong general, which is really ashamed!"

Chen Jiaju said politely, "It's our old tradition to draw a knife to help. Mr. Luo doesn't have to mind."

Naturally, Luo Wancai will not treat this matter as lightly as Chen Jiaju. He said gratefully, "Mr. Chen is too polite. I know that without your righteous action tonight, Mingli will definitely have no good fruit to eat. Maybe he will be thrown into the Huangpu River by these lawless guys. So, Mr. Chen, please don't be polite! Well, at noon tomorrow, I will feast Mr. Chen and all the brothers!"

Looking at Luo Wancai, who is good at dancing with long sleeves, Chen Jiaju nodded secretly. He was thinking about who this Luo Wancai would be Rong Zongjing. His age and behavior must have an unusual status in Rong's enterprise.

Chen Jiaju smiled and said, "Let's not eat. Mingli is still recovering from his injury. When he recovers, let's get together again. Anyway, we have to thank these gangsters. If it's not their confusion, we won't know each other.

Luo Wancai raised his eyebrows gently. He himself heard Chen Jiaju's intention to have a relationship with him. He was a little curious. What kind of intention would this young man have?

"What Mr. Chen said is very... I think Mr. Chen is so young, but he has a kind of demeanor. I take the liberty to ask why Mr. Chen came to Shanghai. Maybe he can give me some ideas?" Luo Wancai consciously owed the other party a favor and decided to ask after thinking about it for a moment.

Chen Jiaju secretly praised the other party for going on the road and smiled, "To tell you the truth, Brother Luo, my little brother's arrival in Shanghai this time is also for business. I just heard Mingli that your factory seems to be worried about raw materials..."

Luo Wancai, who had been locked between his eyebrows, opened his eyes and looked unbelievable. He grabbed Chen Jiaju's arm and asked excitedly, "Brother, what can you do?"

Gently pulling Cairo Wancai's hands, Chen Jiaju smiled and said, "It seems that your factory is really in a shortage of raw materials. Yes, I do have a channel to get high-quality cotton..."

Luo Wancai blushed and turned around in the ward. He also said with high-fives, "It's really easy to break the iron shoes without any place to find! Now the problem is solved!"

Li Mingli and the members of the Guard naturally can't understand the meaning of the dialogue between Chen Jiaju, but they only look at the confident Chen Jiaju and the happy Luo Wancai. They understand that it should be a good thing.

There is a row of carved stone low walls on Shaanxi North Road near Nanjing West Road. Behind the wall is a white three-story building, with exquisite carvings on the linters and windows; the windows are all colored mosaic glass; the bell-like corners seem to be standing in the bushes, surrounded by green; The south side of the building is full of neat columns upstairs and downstairs, and the side doors also have beautiful giant columns and stone levels. Even on the beach where there are many rich people like dogs, this is a rare mansion.

In the study of the three-story foreign-style building, the smoke is lingering, and the atmosphere is not generally solemn. There are only two people in the room. The elderly have a thin face, and their eyes are shining from time to time. Only the wrinkles on their forehead are whispering to remind them. The years are old! The other person is simple-fashioned, calm, and quite a general.

"Second brother, the situation has been turbulent during this period. In less than a month, the price of cotton has risen three times in a row. The momentum is not good!" The elder extinguished the cigarette in his hand, took a sip of tea, and lit another one.

"Yes, if the production can't keep up, there will be problems with workers' wages, bonuses and benefits."

"Money is not the main problem. Bank loans can solve it. Now the most urgent thing is to come up with a solution to solve the problem of raw materials! In fact, since the year before last, the price of cotton has gradually risen, and now there seems to be a trend of accelerating the rise. Now we have no profit for every piece of cloth. If the price of cotton rises again, we will lose money to sell it!"

"Yes, I don't know what's going on. Cotton prices have risen in recent years. If cotton prices continue to rise like this, it will be dangerous for us to expand our new yarn factories in recent years."

"Yes, it's no problem to lose money and sell it for a while. It's hard to say for a long time. Those guys in the bank will also jump out."

"Brother, will last month's salary and benefits be paid as usual?"

"At this time, we can't mess ourselves up!"

"Let the supply department speed up manpower and purchase a large number of cotton. In addition, negotiate with the gang to see if we can find some loading and unloading workers. If there is really a problem with the supply of raw materials, the machine can't turn around and stop the factory when the work is resumed in the future, it will be a big deal!" The elder patted the table decisively.

"Fortunately, we are catching up with the time of the city's strike, otherwise we will reproduce the bad luck of the shutdown of the four factories last year!" Another person sighed.

When I got out of the hospital, it was already late at night. On the way back to the hotel, someone from the guard asked curiously, "Boss, is this Rong's enterprise famous? I think even those green-skinned scoundrels are a little taboo on them.

Chen Jiaju said "um", his eyes exuded with admiration, and sighed, "It's not just famous. They can be said to be a model and model of the national industry in contemporary China, and they are the pride of our Chinese people!"

Everyone was in an uproar. When did they see their boss respect people so much? They left a deep impression on this Rong's enterprise. They didn't understand anything else, but they knew that what the boss valued must be worth paying attention to.

Chen Jiaju secretly said, how can you imagine how famous the Rong family is in this era and in the following decades!

Indeed, the two names of Rong Zongjing and Rong Desheng are probably not well known in later generations. When it comes to the Rong brothers, some people may suddenly realize it! As for Rong Yiren, whose son Rong Desheng used to be the Vice President of the People's Republic of China, I believe most people are familiar with it.
