Chapter 838

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Qimo and McJoseph sent a telegram from Shanghai, saying that they had raised three million pounds, which was not much different from the expected five million.

After receiving the telegram, Kangmaode immediately began to look for office spaces in Jiangbei, Haishu and Jiangdong at the same time. Yinjiang Development Bank was preparing to list on a date.

Zhong Yi will also officially start laying a stall.

The first priority is to determine the director of the Urban Scale Construction Bureau.

As mentioned earlier, Zhong Yi had already thought about this candidate.

This candidate is Zhong Yi’s brother-in-law, a top student at Cambridge University, Zhang Yuandong.

So, that night, Zhong Yi sent a telegram to Chongqing, and the people from the Telegram Bureau sent the telegram to the Zhang family who were living in Chongqing overnight.

After receiving Zhong Yi's telegram, his father-in-law Zhang Mouzhi immediately summoned his children to a meeting to study.

As mentioned earlier, the Zhang family is a Western-style family, which believes in Christianity and advocates democracy.

Of course, it is just a formal democracy, and Zhang Mouzhi has the final say on major matters.

Because the telegram sent by Zhong Yi involved the future rise and fall of the Zhang family, Zhang Mouzhi was not good at it, but instead summoned all his six sons and only unmarried daughter Zhang Manyi.

After Mrs. Zhang, six sons and Zhang Manyi all read the telegram, Zhang Mouzhi said, "Tell me what you want."

As the eldest son, Zhang Yuandong was the first to speak and said immediately: "Dad, I personally have no objection and am willing to go to Yinjiang to help my fifth brother-in-law. After all, he is alone in Yinjiang and it is difficult to use his few capable confidants around him."

Zhang Mouzhi frowned when he heard this, and he was inevitably disappointed with his eldest son's speech because his eyes were too short-sighted.

In comparison, Zhang Mouzhi, who had been ups and downs in the business world for most of his life, is much more experienced. He has seen an opportunity from the telegram sent by Zhong Yi!

A good opportunity to make the Zhang family one of the top wealthy families!

When it comes to wealth, the Zhang family is actually rich enough now.

The third son-in-law is the current uncle, the third son is the major general senator at the General Staff Headquarters, and the youngest son-in-law is even more amazing. He is already a famous general in China and abroad, and his future is limitless! Really, Zhang Mouzhi has no regrets about how Zhang family can have today, and he can explain it to his ancestors even after being in the ninth fountain.

However, an undeniable fact is that the Zhang family is still far from the top wealthy families.

Not to mention the Song family, the Kong family, the Chen family, and the Jiang family, the Sheng family in Shanghai and the Zhao family in Xiaogang, the financial resources and background of their Zhang family are hard to match.

He was side by side with the Song family, Kong family, Jiang family and Chen family, and Zhang Mouzi didn't dare to think about it.

But Zhang Mouzhi still thought it was alongside the Sheng family in Shanghai and the Zhao family in Xiaogang.

But then again, the Zhang family's business has expanded to this point and has entered a bottleneck. If it cannot break through this bottleneck, it will stop moving forward. The best result is to maintain the current situation. However, if it can break through the bottleneck, there will be a chance to go further and stand on par with the Sheng family and the Zhao family.

And the telegram from the young son-in-law gave Zhang Mouzhi an opportunity.

Zhang Mouzhi said angrily: "You just think your fifth brother-in-law wants help?"

"What else?" Zhang Yuandong said in a daze, "My fifth brother-in-law sent a telegram at this time. Didn't he come to ask for help?"

Zhang Mouzhi was a little impatient, turned his eyes to his second son Zhang Yuanxi, and said in a deep voice: "Yuanxi, tell me."

Zhang Yuanxi glanced at the elder brother and said, "Although the fifth brother-in-law can give the elder brother only the secretary-general of the bureau, the director of the army is also served by the fifth brother-in-law. If nothing unexpected happens, the position of the secretary-general is only a transition. It won't take long before the elder brother can serve as the director of the urban planning and construction management bureau."

"So what? I am now the director of Chongqing Construction Bureau." Zhang Yuandong said, "Even if I am transferred to the director of Yinjiang Construction Bureau, I will be demoted. Can Yinjiang compete with Chongqing?"

"Short-eyed!" Zhang Mouzhi couldn't help but scold, "Do you really think Ziren will continue to work as Mayor Yinjiang? Don't forget that he has always been a soldier, and his real responsibility is to lead troops!"

"This..." Zhang Yuandong's expression suddenly moved slightly. He really had never thought about this.

But if Zhang Yuandong can really be the mayor of Yinjiang, he is still quite looking forward to it.

After pausing, Zhang Mouzhi said again: "In addition, although Zi Ren only said a few words in the telegram, I can feel that what he plans are great!"

"What is the plan?" Zhang Yuanbeidao, "What does it mean?"

Zhang Mouzhi said: "I ask you, what is the biggest difficulty in our country now?"

The youngest son Zhang Yuanfan rushed to answer: "The biggest difficulty now is the shortage of supplies."

"The son is teachable." Zhang Mouzhi nodded happily and said, "That's right, the biggest difficulty in our country now is the shortage of supplies, and almost all supplies are extremely scarce. At this time, as long as you can produce products, you will not have to worry about selling them at all! So, I guess Ziren's meaning should be to attract all the factories stranded in Shanghai to Yinjiang!"

"Dad, when you say this, I remember something. It's probably not just a factory in Shanghai." Zhang Yuannan suddenly said, "In the morning, I heard several colleagues discussing that the United States wanted to cooperate with us in economic cooperation, to build an industrial park in Yinjiang, and the United States moved the factory to this industrial park, and the Yinjiang government gave tax preferential treatment."

"There is still this?" Zhang Mouzhidao, "that means that my judgment is correct!"

Zhang Yuandong frowned and said, "Does his fifth brother-in-law want to vigorously develop industry in Yinjiang? But the question is, can the poor population of Yinjiang be able to support it?"

"Are you stupid?" Zhang Mouzhi was completely disappointed with his eldest son and said angrily, "At present, at least four million refugees are stranded in the concession in Shanghai, without food and clothing, and Yinjiang is close to Shanghai, guarding the concession in Shanghai. Is Yinjiang still afraid that he will not be able to attract enough people?"

Zhang Yuandong was speechless in a while.

"You should stay in Chongqing and be your construction director honestly." Zhang Mouzhi groaned and said to his second son Zhang Yuanxi, "Yuanxi, go to Yinjiang to help your brother-in-law take on this burden!"

"Ah?" Zhang Yuanxi glanced at Zhang Yuandong and said, "Dad, isn't this good? The fifth brother-in-law ordered the eldest brother's name."

"What's wrong with this?" Zhang Mouzhi said, "Zi Ren pointed to Far East, but because of his qualities, not because your abilities are not as good as your brother. Both of you graduated from Cambridge University and studied architecture, so you can do it!"

After pausing, Zhang Mouzhi said again: "Not only do you want to go in the west, but you will also go for a while for your father and Man Yi."
