Chapter 739: The Assassination of the Bank
Zhu Muyun took this invitation and felt very sad. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoHe had several contacts with Ye Mingze because of the establishment of Zhongjiang Industrial Bank. Zhongjiang Industrial Bank is a newly established bank on the site of the former Zhejiang Industrial Bank. Shi Xinquan, chairman of the Guxing City Government, is the chairman, and Ye Mingze is the general manager.
Shi Xinquan, born in 1880, is a native of Xingguo, Hubei. The original name is Chengkai, the word Dunren, the number Hanfang, and the alias Shenren. In his early years, he joined the Hubei New Army Engineering Battalion, and was selected into the Wuchang Hubei Wu Ordinary Middle School with excellent grades as a foreman and assistant teacher. In the autumn of the 29th year of Guangxu, he went to Japan to study at Zhenwu School. After graduation, he joined the 4th Guards Infantry Wing as a non-commissioned officer candidate. After the expiration of the term, he entered the Infantry Section of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School. During this period, he joined the China League, which can be regarded as an old revolutionary.
After the Northern Expedition, Shi Xinquan lived in the ancient Xingri concession for a long time. In April last year, at the invitation of Mori Gao, director of the Japanese Special Service Headquarters in Guxing, he served as the vice chairman and chairman of the Senate Office of the Guxing Special City Government. During this period, he was responsible for the establishment of the Preparatory Department of Hubei Provincial Government. After the establishment of Zhongjiang Industrial Bank, he also served as the chairman of the board. But the specific affairs are entrusted to Ye Mingze.
Zhongjiang Industrial Bank is nominally a joint venture between the provincial and municipal governments, but in reality the provincial and municipal governments cannot intervene. The purpose of the establishment of the bank was clearly stated to be "to prosper the market, to regulate finance, and to facilitate the finances of local governments". But in fact, it was mainly for the Japanese to loot materials, monopolize the economy, and promote military ticket services.
When the bank was established, the capital was 5 million yuan in military tickets. In the bank, all units above the section level have Japanese consultants or bank staff counseling, adhering to the will of the special department to handle administrative affairs. In other words, the real superior institution of Zhongjiang Industrial Bank is actually the headquarters of the secret service. Most of the members of Zhongjiang Industrial Bank are former employees of Guxing's private banks and banks, and some young people have also been recruited as trainees.
Zhongjiang Industrial Bank has branches in Wuchang, Nanchang, Jiujiang, Yingcheng, Xiaogan, Xinyang, Shanghai, Shashi, etc., and has two offices in Shengli Street and Hanzheng Street in Guxing. There are two warehouses in Guxing Wharf and Dazhi Road. In the city, there are also three pawn shops.
Zhongjiang is called the Industrial Bank, but it has no contact with the industry, and its main task is to buy materials, which is actually to operate a special fund for salt and tobacco, and lend money to Chinese local specialty merchants, such as cotton merchants, and working capital.
Its specific method of accommodating the finances of cities and counties is as follows: The Zhongjiang Industrial Bank will lend a sum of money to the county government, let them buy salt and opium, and then recover the loan after they have sold it. This is also the most effective, if not the only, way to solve administrative costs at all levels.
Because Ye Mingze listened to the Japanese very much, he has been appointed governor of Jiangxi Province at Zhongjiang Industrial Bank because of his outstanding achievements, and he will take up his post at the end of the month. At this time, I sent an invitation, I'm afraid I also want to make another profit before leaving office. Even if he didn't hold this birthday party, I'm afraid he would think of other ways.
Zhu Muyun took the invitation and was also quite embarrassed. He has always been good at slapping horses, and he also knows Ye Mingze. Ye Mingze will soon serve as the governor of Jiangxi Province, and at this time, he will send invitations, I am afraid that he will not be allowed to back up the generous gifts, and he will not be able to get by. Thinking about it, if he was Ye Mingze, I am afraid that he would have done more than Ye Mingze.
Thinking that he had worked hard yesterday to get dozens of gold bars, and he might have to send more than half of them out today, Zhu Muyun was very painful. However, thinking about Ye Mingze, he will be the governor of Jiangxi in the future, and now he has the opportunity to tie his head, of course he can't miss it. Who knows, will Ye Mingze be transferred back to Guxing in the future? If he is the mayor of Guxing, or even the chairman of Hubei Province, it will be too late to pat himself on the back when the time comes.
"Queue seats." Cheng Jilu knocked on the door and walked into Zhu Muyun's office. Seeing him sitting on the office chair, looking at the pile of gold bars on the table in a daze, he couldn't help but laugh secretly.
Everyone loves money, but there are really not many people like Zhu Muyun who have a good way to make money. In fact, as long as you are shameless enough, it is quite easy to earn a share of the family business. Of course, such a person is easy to be poked in the back. He secretly thought that Zhu Muyun's backbone might have been broken.
After hearing about yesterday's celebration party, he was so surprised that he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Zhu Muyun just took the people from the Xianzuo class, as well as the two guard squads borrowed from the economic department, and walked around the city. After coming back, he shamelessly said that he had made meritorious contributions. So much loot was also captured. He was laughing so hard that his big teeth almost fell off.
This kind of thing, just brag about it in private, others just laugh at it, just like you fart. However, Zhu Muyun actually held a celebration party with great fanfare, and also put out the loot and sold it at the price of a gold bar and a bullet shell. This kind of person's skin has already cultivated to be thicker than the ancient star's city wall.
"How's it going?" Zhu Muyun glanced at the twenty gold bars on the table with fascination and walked to the sofa. He asked Cheng Jilu to expel the idle people outside Huang Ruiqi's door, in fact, to give Wu Shangtian a wake-up call. The French Concession is the territory of the gendarmerie detachment, and his hand cannot be stretched so long.
"It's all gone, but Huang Ruiqi still has to be monitored, so I put an eyeliner there." Cheng Jilu said with a smile, Wu Shangtian's people, if they monitored Huang Ruiqi, Zhu Muyun was naturally unhappy. However, if he sends someone to monitor himself, he should have nothing to say.
"It's okay to look at eyeliner, but you can't be spotted. Otherwise, it's a shame. Zhu Muyun admonished.
"Yes. Team seat, so much gold, in the office, I'm afraid it's not safe. Cheng Jilu glanced at the gold bars on the table and reminded.
"It's not my gold bar anytime soon. Ye Mingze, general manager of Zhongjiang Industrial Bank, held a birthday party in the evening. You can't go empty-handed, can you? You go find a suitable box and put the gold bars up for me. Zhu Muyun sighed and said, how many guns and ammunition can you buy with twenty gold bars? How much sulfonamide can be exchanged?
"I heard that Mr. Ye will go to Jiangxi to serve as governor." Cheng Jilu flatteringly said that it is really rare for Zhu Muyun to have a relationship with someone like Ye Mingze. Although he is also widely traveled, he has nothing to do with the real powerful. Otherwise, he would not have been crushed by Shi Xixia in three places.
"That's right." Zhu Muyun said that it was because Ye Mingze would serve as the governor of Jiangxi that he had to prepare a big gift. If Ye Mingze is leveled down, or even deposed, won't these twenty gold bars be saved? Ye Mingze can go to Jiangxi to be the governor, who knows, will he be transferred back to Hubei to be the governor? Of course, Jiangxi Province is far inferior to Hubei Province, and it is very remarkable that he can come back and become the mayor of Guxing City at that time.
Although twenty gold bars are to be given away, there are dozens of gold bars that belong to Zhu Muyun. The gold bars, he was going to deposit in HSBC first. Although his money will eventually be given to the organization as funds. But this money is well documented. When the time comes, if you want to use it, you can get it out at any time.
HSBC is located on Nanjing Road in the French Concession, dozens of steps in front of the door. After Zhu Muyun parked the car, he was about to walk up the steps with his briefcase. Suddenly, he saw that Ye Mingze also came to HSBC on business. Behind Ye Mingze, followed by two bodyguards, Zhu Muyun originally wanted to go over to say hello.
Suddenly, three people walked down the steps, one of them wearing a trench coat and a top hat. When he was still a few meters away from Ye Mingze, he suddenly took out his gun and fired three shots at Ye Mingze. Two of the shots hit Ye Mingze in the chest, and the other shot hit one of his bodyguards in the neck.
When Zhu Muyun heard the gunshot, he immediately squatted down and shrank to the edge of the steps. He could see clearly that it was Deng Yangchun who shot just now. Didn't they, the backbone of the military commander, go to Guan Shaling? How can you come back to carry out a mission without saying hello to yourself? Moreover, as soon as he returned, he carried out such an important task.
But at this time, what Zhu Muyun values more is his own life. If Deng Yangchun discovers him, he may also be included in the target. If he dies at the hands of his own people, he will not be able to explain to Lord Yama after he dies.
Fortunately, as soon as the gun went off, Ye Mingze's other bodyguard rushed forward. The bodyguards invited by Ye Mingze all have martial arts. Deng Yangchun didn't even have time to shoot, and the gun in his hand was split off by the bodyguard. Deng Yangchun stood on a high place, and he flew out and kicked the opponent in the chest.
It's just that HSBC has the standing constitution of the constitutional class on duty. Hearing the gunshots, Kenzo immediately rushed over whistling. Deng Yangchun didn't have time to pick up the guns underground, and ran towards Zhu Muyun with two of his subordinates.
Zhu Muyun and Deng Yangchun met head-on. Zhu Muyun was in a hurry and wanted to take out the gun, but he was empty. He had never liked to carry a gun, and today he didn't.
Deng Yangchun also saw Zhu Muyun, he was overjoyed, Zhu Muyun is a big fish, if he can kill him, it will be a great achievement. However, his gun was lost, he snatched his gun and shot at Zhu Muyun.
But Zhu Muyun, how could he give him this opportunity? As early as when Deng Yangchun ran to him, he began to apply oil to the soles of his feet. When Deng Yangchun saw him, Zhu Muyun had already run to the side of the car. Deng Yangchun's two shots only hit his car.
"Bang bang!"
Although Zhu Muyun hid on the other side of the car, the two gunshots still made him tremble. Deng Yangchun, a bastard, has completed the task, why do you have to take the sheep by the hand? Fortunately, I saw the opportunity early, otherwise, I would have eaten a gun.
"Captain, are you alright?" Zhu Feng happened to be nearby, and immediately rushed over when he heard the gunshots. When he saw Zhu Muyun's car, he was very surprised.
"I'm fine, hurry up and see if Mr. Ye is okay." Zhu Muyun said with palpitations. Deng Yangchun has already run away, and this is the moment to reflect his "calm and commanding", how can people see that his calves are actually still trembling.
