Chapter 907: Reason
Zhang Guanglin's words almost hit Zhu Muyun's heart. After staying in the Political Security Bureau for a long time, Zhu Muyun has long been cultivated to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. As long as the starting point is good, and it does not hurt others, it is enough. As for whether this process will scare people, he can't care so much.
"How could I do such a thing?" Zhu Muyun said "firmly" that his identity is to "protect" Gu Xing and maintain law and order, and he will definitely not do such a thing. However, others may not. Like, angry "workers" or something.
"Lisa is lovely and kind." Zhang Guanglin said.
"The reason why I want to know Lisa is not to hurt her, but to protect her. Think about it, she is the pearl of Moore's palm, will someone use her to blackmail Moore for some purpose? Although we want to make Moore give in, we must not do such despicable and shameless things. Zhu Muyun said "obligatory".
Zhang Guanglin was "moved" by Zhu Muyun at this moment. Yes, Zhu Muyun has no stake in the electric light company, and he has no need to do these obscene things for the benefit of the workers.
The special high school kept Yang Huaiyi's whereabouts secret, and it was not until Liu Quan came back that Zhu Muyun knew that Yang Huaiyi had gone to Cultural Street.
It turned out that Yang Huaiyi loved antiques, flowers and trees, celebrity calligraphy and painting, gold and stone seals, fine calligraphy, and was especially good at seal characters. When he went to Culture Street, he naturally visited the antique market of Guxing.
I am not afraid that Yang Huaiyi is old, nor is I afraid that he has high negotiation skills, but I am afraid that he has no hobbies. As long as Yang Huaiyi has such a hobby, the Republicans of the Republic of China will know what to do.
"I just came today, and I have the heart to go to the antique market, this Yang envoy, it seems that he really likes antiques." Zhu Muyun said meaningfully that everyone has hobbies, and keeping hobbies can make life fun.
However, Yang Huaiyi came to Guxing, mainly to negotiate. As soon as he came to Guxing, he went to the antique market. Tell others so clearly that he loves antiques so much, what does he want to do?
Yang Huaiyi, as a special envoy to Nanjing, would never do such a thing for no reason. Besides, Yang Huaiyi is not like such an ugly person, right? Does he have any other purpose in doing so?
Yang Huaiyi can serve as a special envoy this time, in addition to his position can indeed represent the Nanjing government, I am afraid that he is a native of Guchang, and it also has a lot to do with it. Everyone is from Hubei, and sitting together makes it more cordial.
So, visiting the antique market, is it also to appear more intimate? Zhu Muyun seemed to have caught something, but after all, he did not participate in the specific negotiations, so he could not judge Yang Huaiyi's intentions.
At dinner, Zhu Muyun received a notice that there would be a group of antique dealers who would come to visit in the evening. Moreover, in the next two days, in addition to informal conversations with the main members of the Republican Party of the Republic of China in the morning, the main thing is to meet with the major antique dealers of Guxing.
Yang Huaiyi leaves a lot of antiques every day, and Zhu Muyun especially observes those antique dealers who deliver them to the door. From their faces, there was no look of frustration and disappointment. On the contrary, the dealer who has no antiques seems excited.
The gold of troubled times, the antiques of prosperous times, in today's ancient stars, antiques and rags have almost become synonymous. Their antiques can be sold for a high price, so they are naturally very happy.
As long as it is an antique that Yang Huaiyi can see, he will stay in the end. As for the checkout, it has nothing to do with Yang Huaiyi or Zhu Muyun. According to Liu Quan's news, this is a gift from the Republic of China to Yang Huaiyi.
As the party secretary, Liu Quan is naturally very clear about their conversation. What Liu Quan knew, Zhu Muyun naturally knew. Every day, he also has to report to Li Bangfan. It is said that with Liu Quan, an undercover agent, Yang Huaiyi should be able to control the entire negotiation progress. However, he now spends more time on antiques than on negotiations.
However, a few days later, the content of the negotiations began to quietly change. Zhu Muyun communicates with Liu Quan every day, and he and Liu Quan can often meet, and he asks Liu Quan to communicate with him every two hours. If you really can't do it, try to report it in writing.
A good memory is not as good as a bad pen, and Liu Quan may not remember some things clearly. In particular, the secret talks between members of the Republican Party of the Republic of China were very important to Yang Huaiyi.
Zhu Muyun found that after Yang Huaiyi went to Guxing and "collected" all kinds of antiques, the attitude of the Republican Party of the Republic of China also began to change. They don't insist much on disbanding political parties. The focus of the negotiations is on the distribution of benefits.
Zhu Muyun is a person who likes to ponder things, and he has always been very familiar with the process of negotiations. When did this first happen? It seems that Yang Shiying started collecting antiques, right?
On the morning of the fourth day of Yang Huaiyi's stay at the Deming Hotel, everything was fine. Except for Yang Zhi's constant transmission of information from the military commanders, there is nothing abnormal in the Deming Hotel, and it seems to be very safe.
However, in the morning, Yang Huaiyi, He Peilu, Shi Xinquan and others were talking about things in the high-end suite of the Deming Hotel, when the power suddenly went out. The light in the room was originally a little dim, and if the power went out, the curtains had to be opened. However, people in the extra high class are not allowed to open the curtains.
Once the curtains are opened, no one knows if bullets will come in from outside. Upon learning of the possible assassination by the military commanders, the participants immediately agreed not to open the curtains again.
Zhu Muyun, on the other hand, supervised the Deming Hotel and quickly activated the generator. Because the Deming Hotel has long been equipped with a generator, under Zhu Muyun's arrangement, the fuel is very well prepared, but it only takes ten minutes to send electricity.
"Power outages are normal in extraordinary times. Even if it is normal, there is no guarantee of 24-hour power supply. Yang Huaiyi said with a smile.
"We will do our best to ensure the envoy's electricity." He Peilu said that he had just gone out and understood in his heart how the current electricity came from.
If it's just a power outage, it's nothing. The point is, even the water has stopped. During the day, Yang Huaiyi will not notice it. At night, except for the lights at the Deming Hotel, everything else is dark, and the fool knows what is going on. In addition, Yang Huaiyi has the habit of taking a bath every night. If you don't have running water, it's embarrassing.
He Peilu asked that the problem be solved as soon as possible. And the focus of the problem is precisely the treatment of workers in electric light companies. In the afternoon, He Peilu personally met Moore at the Deming Hotel. This is a tall white man, he can speak fluent Chinese, and he is also very interested in the culture of the Chinese nation.
Zhu Muyun was below, and also met Moore's daughter Lisa. This beautiful and cute little girl is indeed endearing. Moore was very fond of her, because she wanted to come to the Deming Hotel for steak, so he brought her over.
"Moore asked that the provincial government give special compensation to the electric light company to settle the workers' compensation costs." Liu Quan then told Zhu Muyun a piece of news.
"What? No wonder this Englishman has such a tough attitude, he is waiting here. Zhu Muyun said in surprise.
Moore's attitude has always been tough, not because of his British, but because he understands that at this time, the provincial government is more anxious than him. The businessmen are shrewd, and he knows very well that once there is a power outage in the French Concession, the provincial government will definitely find a way to solve it. After all, Yang Huaiyi was in the Deming Hotel, and he couldn't let the Nanjing envoy see the scene of the workers' strike.
"Yes, he knows that the provincial government is in a hurry, so he wants to pass on the loss to the provincial government. This foreigner is really despicable. Liu Quan said with a sigh.
"This is not despicable, it can only be said that he has a clear view of China's politics." Zhu Muyun said with a smile.
If he is Moore, he will also try his best to transfer his losses to others. Moore is British, and his safety in China is guaranteed.
"Will the provincial government give in?" Liu Quan asked.
"I don't know." Zhu Muyun said that this was a game between Moore and the provincial government, and that he was just a small person and could not influence the outcome. As long as the rights and interests of the worker are guaranteed, his purpose has been achieved.
Naturally, the provincial government will not give in easily, and no one's money will be blown by the wind. Although He Peilu is very anxious, no matter how anxious he is, he will not pay this money for Moore.
And Moore's attitude was also very resolute, the workers demanded 150 fiats each, and he could only provide 30 fiats, and the remaining 120 fiats should be subsidized by the provincial government. Because Moore's reasons are also very good, the reason why Gu Xing's food prices skyrocketed was not caused by him, but by the government.
