Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

Zhang Yunwan said, "You and my brother have such a good relationship, it's too formal to call me Miss Zhang, just call me Yunwan."

"What I want to ask is, Mr. Ye, are you married?"

Ye Yunfei shook his head and said, "Not yet, what's wrong?"

"There's none."

Zhang Yunwan was a little surprised and said, "Mr. Ye is such an outstanding young man, but he is still unmarried. It's really unexpected."

"In our Northeast, people your age already have several children, let alone getting married."

Ye Yunfei smiled and said, "I don't want to get married yet. I'll wait until I'm successful in my career."

Zhang Yunwan nodded: "Mr. Ye is indeed different from other men. His career comes first."

She also admired Ye Yunfei more and more.

The two chatted as the train moved forward.

……

Two days later, the train arrived at Shanghai Station.

After getting off the train, Ye Yunfei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the familiar scene in front of him.

Although the outside world is also nice, for him, the most comfortable place is still Shanghai.

"Is this Shanghai? It's really prosperous."

"I've heard before that Shanghai is the number one city in Asia. Now it seems to be true. It's much more prosperous than our Fengtian."

"It's so lively."

Zhang Yunwan also said in amazement.

Ding Li said, "That's right. The bustle of Shanghai is indeed incomparable to some ordinary cities."

"In my heart, Shanghai is the number one city."

Ye Yunfei shook his head and said to Zhang Yunwan: "Yunwan, now that we have arrived in Shanghai, I will find a place for you to stay so that you can rest for a while."

"Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to help you build an office in Shanghai."

Zhang Yunwan nodded and said, "Okay. By the way, Mr. Ye, where do you live?"

Ye Yunfei said: "Sometimes I live in the office, sometimes I live anywhere randomly, what's wrong with that?"

Zhang Yunwan said: "That place is not convenient, I will stay at your house."

"what."

Hearing this, Ye Yunfei was a little confused and said, "Living in my house, this, is not appropriate."

He didn't expect that Zhang Yunwan would be so bold as to want to live in his house.

Even Ding Li, who was standing by, was dumbfounded.

Zhang Yunwan said, "Mr. Ye, you should be aware of the situation of our Zhang family. The Republic of China is in chaos, and many people are eyeing our Zhang family covetously. And I am a member of the Zhang family, and I am also Zhang Hanqing's biological sister."

"Now that I've come to Shanghai alone, I'm afraid that someone might have bad intentions towards me, so I feel that living with you would be safer, and there's no other meaning to it."

"It depends on whether it's convenient for Mr. Ye. If it's not convenient for Mr. Ye, then forget it. I can just find a place to live."

After hearing what Zhang Yunwan said, Ye Yunfei thought about it and realized that this was indeed true.

The Zhang family was one of the most powerful warlords in the Republic of China, and made countless enemies during their external expansion.

Zhang Hanqing's father, Marshal Zhang, was assassinated and killed in a bombing.

Therefore, there were many people in the Republic of China who wanted to kill the Zhang family.

If someone really knew that Zhang Yunwan was in Shanghai, it is very likely that they would take action against her.

Or, they captured Zhang Yunwan and used her to threaten Zhang Hanqing. This is all possible.

Therefore, Zhang Yunwan’s worries are not unreasonable.

When he was in Fengtian before, he promised Zhang Hanqing that he would help him protect Zhang Yunwan. Since he had promised, he must take it seriously.

In addition, he and the Northeast Army are now in a cooperative relationship. Based on this relationship, he cannot let Zhang Yunwan get into trouble on his territory.

Thinking of this, Ye Yunfei said: "In this case, I will find you an absolutely safe place to live."

"But my house is just a small mud house. It can't even accommodate one person, let alone two people."

"So, living in my house shouldn't be an option."

Zhang Yunwan asked, "Then where should we live?"

Ye Yunfei thought for a moment, and said to Ding Li, "Ali, if I'm not mistaken, when we destroyed the Qing Gang, we took over several villas from Zhang Xiaolin. Those villas seem to be connected, right?"

Ding Li nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Fei, that old man Zhang Xiaolin has a total of four villas, all connected together."

"That old guy is afraid of death and someone is going to assassinate him, so he sleeps in a different villa every night, for fear of being killed."

"We took all four of his villas."

Ye Yunfei nodded and said, "In that case, let's arrange one of the four villas for Yun Wan to live in. Also, prepare a villa next to hers for me."

"We two live in adjacent villas. This way, if Yun Wan has any problems, I can get there in time."

Ding Li nodded and said, "No problem, Brother Fei, I'll have someone clean up the four villas right away, you can choose any one you want to live in."

Ye Yunfei turned to Zhang Yunwan and said, "Yunwan, live next door to me, then there will be no problem. I can also guarantee your safety."

Zhang Yunwan nodded: "I'll just follow Mr. Ye's instructions."

Seeing that Zhang Yunwan agreed, Ye Yunfei asked Ding Li to find someone to take Zhang Yunwan to the villa first.

And he returned to Lido.

I have been away for several days and don’t know if anything has happened in Shanghai or whether everything is going well.

Although he only stayed in Fengtian for two days this time, in fact, including the time spent on the road, he was away for nearly a week.

After such a long time, he still felt a little worried.

……

Lido.

After Ye Yunfei arrived, he immediately asked someone to call Xu Wenqiang over.

"Brother Fei, you're back. Why didn't you let me know in advance? I'll pick you up at the train station."

Xu Wenqiang was a little surprised to see Ye Yunfei coming back.

Ye Yunfei said: "Why pick up the phone? We are all family members, there is no need to pick up the phone."

"Wen Qiang, I hope nothing happened to Longmen during the week I was away."

Xu Wenqiang shook his head and said, "Nothing happened, don't worry, Brother Fei, everything is going well."

Ye Yunfei nodded and said, "That's good. I have already taken care of the matter in the Northeast. Zhang Hanqing has agreed that we can build a power plant in the Northeast."

"Send some professional personnel to the Northeast today to build a power plant there. Also, send a trustworthy person to be in charge of the power plant."

"This power plant is our main source of income, so we can't afford any mistakes."

Xu Wenqiang said, "Understood, Brother Fei, I will immediately send professionals to the Northeast to deal with the power plant issue."

"Since we have already reached an agreement with Zhang Hanqing, there shouldn't be any problems. After all, the Northeast is Zhang Hanqing's territory. As long as he nods, there won't be any problems."

"Ah."

Ye Yunfei asked: "How is the recruitment going?"

Xu Wenqiang said: "There is no problem in recruiting people. The key is money. As long as I have money, I can recruit countless people."

"But right now we don't have enough money. The money in Longmen can barely cover the expenses and operation of Longmen's 100,000 disciples. There is no extra money to recruit people."

"So, I don't have any better solution for now. I'll wait until the power plant is built and operational, and then use the money earned from the power plant to recruit people."
