Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

Hu Zhenhua personally served Xu Tai a cup of hot tea and said with a smile,

"Senior, you're too kind. Business is all about win-win!"

Xu Tai picked up the teacup and took a sip.

His action made Hu Zhenhua breathe a sigh of relief. If the other party came to accuse him, he would definitely not touch the food in his mouth. After all, it is easy to be offended by others' kindness.

Xu Tai put down his teacup and said with a smile,

"So, Mr. Hu doesn't mind doing business with the Qing Gang?"

"As long as it's a legitimate business, we have the possibility of cooperation!"

Xu Tai leaned back on the sofa, still smiling, "What would Hu Zhenhua think if I were to invest in his company?"

Of course I want to slap you!

The Qing Gang's move is clearly an attempt to pick peaches.

Hu Zhenhua suppressed his anger and kept a smile on his face.

At this moment, we cannot fall out with the Qing Gang, otherwise, Tongan will go bankrupt.

After a brief thought, Hu Zhenhua stood up, walked to the desk, took out a document, and handed it to Xu Tai.

"Mr. Xu, most of the company's cash has already been spent. Investing in it now would be quite risky for the Qing Gang. I have another business idea, and I wonder if the Qing Gang would be interested?"

After Xu Tai finished reading the documents, his face twitched a few times.

What Hu Zhenhua showed him was Tongan’s procurement plan.

Just as Hu Zhenhua said, most of the company's cash is about to be spent. If the Qing Gang invests now, they may have to clean up the mess.

Xu Tai was silent for a moment and asked,

"If the Qing Gang acquires shares in their company, Mr. Hu, the company's business direction will need to be decided after consultation between the two parties!"

His subtext was: After I acquire shares, I want to gain control, and I don't agree with your purchasing plan.

Hu Zhenhua was forced into a corner. Xu Tai’s meaning was very clear: If I want to take it by force, do you have any cards to play?

This is called extreme pressure in negotiations, forcing the opponent to reveal his cards through excessive conditions.

TA company is the foundation of the four pests' livelihood. This time, Hu Zhenhua could not give in. With a smile on his face, he decided to use soft words to persuade them.

"Mr. Xu, although their company is about to spend most of its funds, it's still no problem to raise a few million dollars. This money can still do a lot of things!"

Xu Tai narrowed his eyes slightly, a murderous look on his face: "Like that?"

"For example, offering a reward for anyone who impersonates TA's company!"

Xu Tai understood what Hu Zhenhua meant. If they fell out, he would offer a huge reward for the heads of several leaders of the Qing Gang!

The Qing Gang is powerful and he is rich!

If the two sides fight, both will suffer losses!

Xu Tai suddenly realized that he had underestimated the young man in front of him. Anyone who dared to use the Qing Gang as a knife was indeed extraordinary!

He calmed down and asked,

"I wonder what this other business Mr. Hu is talking about?"

Hu Zhenhua breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his strategy had made Xu Tai wary.

"I'm planning to set up an airline specializing in passenger transport. You just saw the purchase order. The transport planes in it are for this purpose!"

"aviation?"

Xu Tai frowned.

There is no clear dividing line between black and white, but the two sides do not interfere with each other and no one will extend a hand into the other's territory.

The officialdom and the underworld are two different worlds.

The two sides maintain the balance of the Magic City by relying on the tacit understanding they have already reached.

Aviation is an area under the absolute control of the national government, and it is extremely difficult for private capital to enter.

Currently, China has two airlines, namely China Airlines Co., Ltd. (abbreviated as "China Airlines") and Central Air Transport Co., Ltd. (abbreviated as "Central Air Transport").

These two airlines were originally under the Ministry of Communications and were the two pillars of the aviation industry during the Republic of China period.

In 1948, the Kuomintang's defeat on the mainland was a foregone conclusion, and the authorities ordered the headquarters and major assets of the "Two Airlines" company to be withdrawn to Hong Kong and other places.

It is still feasible for Hu Zhenhua to set up an airline at this time.

Xu Tai thought for a long time, but still couldn't make up his mind. He looked at Hu Zhenhua and asked,

"Mr. Hu, how do you want to cooperate?"

"Of course, you get shares in the company according to your investment ratio!"

This airline is a one-time deal, so even if it is all handed over to the Green Gang, it's no big deal.

Xu Tai was not stupid, of course, he laughed it off.

"I wonder how sir will obtain a license and route?"

"Benefit!"

Xu Tai laughed, laughed heartily,

"Are you betting that if war breaks out again, the government will beg you to open up the air routes?"

Hu Zhenhua was stunned. He did think so. Now after hearing what Xu Tai said, he suddenly realized that something was wrong and asked,

"What's wrong?"

"If the Nationalist government wants to requisition your transport plane, Mr. Hu, how will you respond?"

Hu Zhenhua was dumbfounded. He suddenly realized that his thinking was often still stuck in the past, and he believed that everyone was reasonable.

But in fact, when has the government ever reasoned with the people?

“What if my airline is Mizina?”

Xu Tai waved his hand.

"When it comes to life and death, who cares whether you are American or Chinese!"

Hu Zhenhua stood up and personally poured Xu Tai a cup of hot tea with a respectful attitude.

"Senior, please give me some advice!"

Xu Tai shook his head.

"Unless your airport is not under the control of the Nationalist government!"

Hu Zhenhua had a wry smile on his face.

How is this possible!

The airport is not in the area controlled by the Kuomintang government. Could it be in the area controlled by the Red Forces?

So far, Xu Tai still has nothing to show for it. He plays with the cup lid and says nonchalantly,

"I don't know who's so bold as to spread rumors about the Green Gang! If we knew about this, we'd give him a stab wound!"

Hu Zhenhua chuckled,

"Given the strength of the Qing Gang, it shouldn't be difficult to find out, right?"

It is difficult for Xu Tai to answer this question. If he cannot find out the truth, then the Qing Gang will naturally not be able to find him as the culprit.

If the real murderer can be found out, who will it be?

TA company?

Does the Qing Gang really want to fight to the death?

Xu Tai took a sip of tea and said meaningfully,

"TA company seems to be highly suspicious!"

Hu Zhenhua immediately denied it.

"What does this have to do with us!"

"The logic is simple: those who profit are suspicious! Of all the forces involved, TA is the most eager to uncover the scammers!"

Hu Zhenhua laughed heartily.

"Mr. Xu, according to your logic, even if they're impersonating TA, their intelligence is highly suspicious!"

Xu Tai was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"It makes sense, it makes sense!"

Hu Zhenhua waved his hand.

"Presumption of guilt, innocence until proven guilty. Suspicion is suspicion. Without ironclad evidence, it's slander!"

Xu Tai smiled. In this round of confrontation, he hardly gained any advantage.

Hu Zhenhua stopped when he saw that things were going well and said with a smile,

"Mr. Xu, their company has bought a lot of land in the Magic City. In the future, we will build a factory. Also, all of their goods entering and leaving the Magic City will go through the Green Gang's docks. I hope the brothers of the Green Gang can take care of us. We will follow the rules!"

The rule is to pay protection money!

Xu Tai showed a warm smile on his face.

"Prospering the Magic City economy is for the benefit of the people, and the Qing Gang has an unshirkable responsibility!"

Hu Zhenhua finally let go of his worries. Through this compromise, he finally put an end to the use of the Qing Gang.

As for paying protection money to the Green Gang, haha.

When the Red Army takes over the Magic City and all the evil spirits are wiped out, you still want to collect protection fees. You are lucky to be alive.

Hu Zhenhua looked at Xu Tai and smiled.

"Mr. Xu, you really don't want to get involved in the airline's affairs?"

"The Qing Gang has no intention of doing anything, but I wish your company great success!"

The two exchanged witty remarks for a while before ending the meeting.
