1382 Foreign Merchant Hengliwen

Hu Xueyan rubbed his temples in pain, "Heng Liwen...What do you want me to do? I'm afraid that what I can help you is really limited..."

"No, no, no, there are many people you can help me, a lot..." Hengliwen put down his knife and fork and drank a big sip of red wine. "It is correct for the Beijing court to choose to form an alliance with us, because there is no richer person in this world than us!"

"The world's wealth is concentrated in the City of London, and the city's wealth is concentrated in the hands of our bankers... Let me tell you the truth! Only merchants can start a war in this world, and even the king is just a pawn in our hands!"

"I really don't know what you are thinking. Why would you rather work with Xiao Letian than cooperate with us, especially the old antique Zeng Guofan. We have obviously bribed many of his generals, but he just kept the strict orders and refused to trade private capital. Why is he?"

Heng Liwen's expression became extremely ferocious. "Don't he know that the future world belongs to capital? Is he going against the trend? What are the benefits of cooperating with Xiao Letian? Don't forget that he is a Han Chinese, he cannot have no territorial appeals for this country!"

"Mr. Hu! I hope you don't resist the orders and disrespect. I hope you think about your family carefully and don't go the wrong direction on the road of life!"

"Enough!" Hu Xueyan growled, "I don't need you to teach me the Three Character Classic. Tell me what you want immediately!"

Seeing Hu Xueyan getting angry, Heng Liwen smiled. He was nervous because of the huge pressure for a long time. Now, when he saw Hu Xueyan collapsed, he felt extremely relaxed.

"Very good, very good! Now you answer my first question! How many South Points has Xiao Letian invested in Jiangnan? Don't tell me 1.6 billion yuan, don't think we are fools, we have our statisticians, of course we will calculate!"

Hu Xueyan's chest was fluctuating violently. He really didn't want to sit with this bastard foreigner. He knew that Hengliwen was the head of the foreign banker in the Nanpiao crisis, and he was the biggest mastermind behind the scenes.

But when he recalled the uninvited guest who suddenly visited his house seven days ago, when the eunuch with the duck voice conveyed to him the secret order of Empress Dowager Cixi and Prince Gong's secret order, Hu Xueyan knew that he was powerless to turn the world back.

The big family in heaven and earth is the largest. After all, the family wants to make a living in the Qing Dynasty. He cannot disobey the imperial edict for the sake of the lives of his descendants.

It was precisely because of the Beijing secret decree that he made an exception to meet Hengliwen in Shanghai.

Hu Xueyan sighed, "Actually, I don't know how many South Purchase Xiao Letian has put on, but the ones sent from our Fukang Silver alone have already been 2.5 billion yuan!"

"In name, Xiao Lotte contracted Jiangnan's banknote exchange business to me, but no matter how big my face is, I dare not care about Lotte Bank's exchange itself! I think Lotte Bank should also issue about 2.5 billion... The total number of Jiangnan South tickets is about 5 billion yuan, and this data should be reliable!"

Hu Xueyan waved his hand in pain, "What else should I ask? Let's ask together. If you have anything to do, let's talk together! After leaving this door, I don't know you..."

Hiss... Heng Liwen took a breath of air conditioning, "Is it 5 billion? This is similar to our previous guess. This cunning fox actually claimed that it was only 1.6 billion, which is too sinister..."

Heng Liwen blinked his eyes and kept thinking in his heart that "the 5 billion yuan banknote collapsed, and he joined and said that 3 billion was flowing into the hedging market. Xiao Letian secretly collected it. According to the exchange price during this period, Xiao Letian probably has about 20 million silver dollars to eat the 3 billion banknotes..."

"Damn it, if this guy wins, the 3 billion waste paper bought from 20 million silver dollars will immediately turn into 3 billion yuan in cash! Will you make 3 billion yuan in investment in 20 million?"

Heng Liwen blinked and blinked, and greed began to cover his heart like a devil.

"Now I'll ask you the second question..." Hengliwen shook his wine glass and whispered, "Is there any way you can pry a hole from the ban of Da Zheng? We need to buy a lot of land, shops, workshops..."

"Impossible!" Hu Xueyan shook his head, "Don't try to challenge the great general's power. Jiangning issued a strict order this time. The great general has already said that no one can think of a mischief. Otherwise, the friendship for the rest of his life will be gone!"

"I can't do it, I can't do it!"

"You have to do it if you can't do it!" Heng Liwen said fiercely, "Don't forget the secret order given to you, don't forget that the world belongs to the Beijing court, don't forget the lives of your family..."

"I believe that the methods of you Chinese and thousands of years of bureaucratic culture have given you some tricks to take advantage of loopholes. Don't fight with me, I'm also a Chinese pass! At worst, I will give you a 5% handling fee. The more you do, the more you earn!"

Hu Xueyan slapped his forehead with a slap in his hand, "What kind of evil did I do? What kind of evil did I do! Okay... If you have to do it, I can only have one way, that is, to invest in secret!"

There are differences between open stocks and secret stocks, as well as between rich stocks and dry stocks. Generally speaking, many people want to avoid the government's account check and ensure their own funds are safe, and they like to invest in dark stocks and dry stocks.

For example, the imperial court officials were afraid that the news of their excessive money would spread, and wanted to give it up and make more money, so they had to buy dark stocks and secretly take advantage of the dividends.

Many big businessmen want to bribe officials, give real money, silver, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc., which is too eye-catching. It is also a good way to move dark stocks and then distribute dividends every year. And they also extend the friendship. As long as there are dividends every year, the friendship between officials and businessmen will not be broken.

Even the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty prohibited them from doing business because of the ancestral teachings, but the price of the banner is not enough? Then they do business with many Han people. Many hotels and houses in Beijing use this model to operate. Almost no major merchants among the bannermen do not use shares to make money.

Hu Xueyan looked at Heng Liwen and snorted coldly, "Hmph... This is the only way. Who dares to touch the handsome tiger? If you don't skip the government, do you still want to eat the industry? Don't dream..."

"But without the endorsement of the government, do these share contracts have legal effects?" Heng Liwen asked in confusion.

"Ahhhh... Are you still connected with China? Don't you foreigners have cannons? Why do you need the government to do with the contract supported by cannons? You are so careless!"

Yes? Hengliwen suddenly realized that I was so stupid? I need the endorsement of the Qing Dynasty government. Who dared to reason with our foreign cannons?
