Chapter 233 232 [Xianxia Novel]

"Don't move, I'm coming!"

Just as Meng Xiaodong picked up the kettle to pour water, Zhang Yunhe stopped him immediately.

Meng Xiaodong said jokingly: "Mom, I'm pregnant, not disabled."

"Bah, bah, bah," Zhang Yunhe spit quickly, as if he wanted to spit out the bad luck, and blamed him, "You silly boy, you just said some unlucky things."

Since Meng Xiaodong became pregnant, her mother, Zhang Yunhe, stopped singing and moved to Tianjin to take care of her.

Meng Xiaodong is not a career woman. Historically, after she married Mei Lanfang as his concubine, she stopped performing on stage. It wasn't until he had a conflict with Mei Lanfang that he started singing again, proving that he could support himself.

Now that she is pregnant, Meng Xiaodong bids farewell to the stage full of joy, and only stays at home humming a little piece every day.

Zhang Leyi went downstairs with her handbag, and smiled at the mother and daughter: "Aunt Zhang, Xiaodong, good morning."

"Hi sister." Meng Xiaodong greeted immediately.

Zhang Yunhe did not become arrogant because his daughter was pregnant. She said eagerly, "Miss Zhang, are you going to work so early?"

"Well, someone needs to watch over the radio station." Zhang Leyi replied casually.

After Li Shoumin resigned from the newspaper office and went to work as Fu Zuoyi's secretary, Zhou Hexuan had to go back to take charge of the supplement of Dazhong. The daily affairs of the radio station are basically managed by Zhang Leyi, who is now equivalent to the manager of the radio station.

Since Meng Xiaodong was pregnant, in order to appease Zhang Leyi, Zhou Hexuan said on the same day that he would take her back to Lushan to propose marriage. But there are too many things to do with the newspaper and the radio station, and neither of them can leave for the time being, so the plan to go south can only be postponed again and again.

Zhang Yunhe is very sensible. She talked and laughed all the way, sent Zhang Leyi out before returning, and said to her daughter: "Xiaodong, this Ms. Zhang has such a good personality. I was worried that you would be bullied, but after staying for two days, I realized that it was me." I'm too worried."

"Sister Zhang is very kind to me." Meng Xiaodong said while eating a sour pear.

Zhang Yunhe whispered: "You have to be careful of Liao Yaquan, that woman is very scheming... Well, don't talk about that. Now that you are pregnant with a child, don't think about intrigue."

Meng Xiaodong smiled, but didn't answer.

Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.

While the mother and daughter were chatting, Liao Yaquan went downstairs with the document bag and stood in the lobby waiting for Zhou Hexuan to go to the newspaper office together.

As for Wanrong, she slept until ten o'clock at least every day, she was used to being pampered.

Zhou Hexuan walked down the stairs slowly, nodded and smiled at his mother-in-law, then squatted down suddenly, and put his ear to Meng Xiaodong's stomach to listen.

"What are you doing, go to work!"

Meng Xiaodong blushed with embarrassment, and was not used to being too intimate with Zhou Hexuan when other people were present.

Zhang Yunhe smiled and turned to avoid, while Liao Yaquan remained indifferent.

Twenty minutes later, Zhou Hexuan came to the editorial department of the "Dazhong" supplement.

Liao Yaquan went to make tea for him, Shen Congwen came knocking on the door and said excitedly: "Mingcheng, read this novel quickly!"

"You wrote it?" Zhou Hexuan asked.

Shen Congwen said: "Brother Shoumin's, the imagination is amazing."

Zhou Hexuan opened it and was speechless for a moment——Li Shoumin's "Swordsman of Shu Mountain" finally came out ahead of schedule under the influence of the traveler.

Shen Congwen praised: "I didn't like to read martial arts novels, but Brother Shou Min's writing is so elegant that people can't put it down."

The current manuscript of "The Legend of the Shushan Swordsman" is only the first three chapters, Zhou Hexuan asked with a smile: "Isn't he working as a secretary for General Fu? Why do you still have time to write novels?"

Shen Congwen smiled and said: "Don't mention it. Brother Shoumin was still complaining to me last night, saying that it is really meaningless to be a secretary to the Tianjin Garrison Commander. It is better to come back and become an editor. He is not a confidential secretary. Dealing with documents and files, I don’t know what to do with the rest of the time. In his original words, it hurts to be so idle..."

"puff!"

When Zhou Hexuan heard Shen Congwen swearing in Sichuan, he burst out laughing.

Shen Congwen joked: "He has nothing to do every day and can only pass the time by writing novels. I really envy his secretary job."

Well, this time-space "Legend of the Swordsman of Shu Mountain" is actually a civil servant.

Zhou Hexuan thought for a while and said: "When the serialization of "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji" ends, let's replace it with this "Legend of the Swordsman in Shu Mountain"."

"Hello, I'll talk to brother Shoumin later." Shen Congwen chatted a few more words, then left and went to his own business.

Around noon when I get off work.

Zhao Yunxiang came to visit suddenly, and invited Zhou Hexuan to have lunch with him.

The two sat down in the restaurant, Zhao Yunxiang suddenly said mysteriously: "Brother Zhou, I have a profitable business, I wonder if you would like to join it?"

"What business?" Zhou Hexuan asked.

"Doing foreign trade business, you can make money without losing money!" Zhao Yunxiang said.

Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "How can there be a business in this world that only makes money but doesn't lose money?"

"Don't believe me," Zhao Yunxiang said, "I've already inquired. That company is a Sino-US joint venture. The US shareholder is also the US vice-consul in Tianjin. Manager Qi assured me that as long as I invest money, If you make a profit, you can share dividends, and if you accompany him, you will be alone."

Zhou Hexuan, who has experienced all kinds of fraudulent information in later generations, knew that he was a liar after hearing this. He asked, "Brother Zhao invested money?"

"I voted," Zhao Yunxiang said in a low voice, "The 130,000 yuan I shared, except for the money to buy a house, I invested the rest..."

Zhao Yunxiang carefully talked about his experiences these days. After killing Chu Yupu's brother last time, he did not return to Shandong immediately. Instead, he stayed in Tianjin and helped his boss Sun Liangcheng buy houses and properties. As a result, when buying a foreign house, he met Qi Naixi, the boss of Xiehe Trading Company.

Being fooled by Qi Naixi, Zhao Yunxiang ran to do an investigation and immediately invested nearly 100,000 in foreign trade business.

Zhao Yunxiang vowed: "Brother Zhou, I'm not lying to you. I've inquired about it. Boss Qi is a famous businessman in Tianjin and has cooperated with many banks. Those who did business with him in the past have always only made money but not lost money. I I treat you as a good friend, so I came to tell you the news."

Zhou Hexuan looked at Zhao Yunxiang with great sympathy, he was a good soldier, why bother to meddle in the business world, and even plunged into the mess of Xiehe Company.

When Zhou Hexuan was a student, he also studied the history of the Republic of China and heard about Tianjin Xiehe Trading Company.

The main reason is that Qi Naixi, the boss of Xiehe, played too much. He colluded with the US Vice Consul in Tianjin (resigned) and joined forces to engage in financial fraud. Not only did it cheat many investors, but it also caused several Chinese banks to go bankrupt after the incident was revealed.

Calculating the time, it will only be a month or two before Qi Naixi runs away, and by then the entire financial market in Tianjin will be disrupted.

"Brother, I advise you to ask that Boss Qi for money." Zhou Hexuan said with emotion.

This Zhao Yunxiang is also unlucky, he managed to get more than 100,000 ill-gotten gains, and was cheated out of it in a blink of an eye.

Zhou Hexuan thought to himself: Fortunately, all my money is stored in foreigners' banks. Otherwise, once the Xiehe financial fraud case breaks out, several Chinese-funded banks will go bankrupt, and all the deposits in them will be in vain.

In fact, the method used in the Xiehe fraud case was not very clever, but Qi Naixi invited an American partner, and he was also the US vice consul in Tianjin, that would be too powerful. At this time, the people of the country were all superstitious about the great powers, not to mention ordinary people, even the shrewd bankers were deceived into confusion.

By the way, speaking of foreign countries, the US Marine Corps is about to leave Tianjin.
