The Two Heroes of the Ye Family

With the departure of Cheng Dahu and others, the Fujia Rice Processing Plant returned to its former tranquility.

The workers in the rice processing plant are all ordinary people from the Wanling Mountain area, and are also the families of special forces soldiers.

At the Hujiang Fujia Rice Processing Factory, the food is good, the accommodation is nice, and the salary is high, but there is not much freedom.

When Zhang Yulin stepped into the Fujia rice processing factory for the first time, he felt that the factory was well-organized.

The sanitary conditions inside are also good. This will be his workplace from now on.

During this period, his brother-in-law Ye Xiaoyang bought him a car.

He was also given an identity card for the International Settlement to facilitate his life in Shanghai.

My brother-in-law even asked me to drive around Hujiang to familiarize myself with it. Hujiang was indeed prosperous, incomparable to the city of Jinling before the war.

He also took me to the Citibank counter, opened a passbook, and transferred $50,000 to me at one time.

Zhang Yulin couldn't imagine how the Fujia rice processing factory could be so profitable. Only his brother-in-law was so rich.

He had lived in Wucheng for more than half a year and had seen the suffering of the people. Many ordinary people lived a very poor life.

He knew very well what fifty thousand dollars meant, and its purchasing power was even stronger.

Ye Xiaoyang introduced his brother-in-law as he walked, and at the same time introduced him to the people in the factory.

Zhang Yulin was always confused, but he always followed his brother-in-law Ye Xiaoyang.

"Yulin, you look disappointed?"

"Brother-in-law, the rice processing plant seems a bit far from what we want to do."

"Are you so impatient? You can't be patient at all. How can the Fujia Rice Processing Plant make any money?

The only advantage is that you don’t have to buy rice. Come with me and don’t tell anything you see here when you get home.

Dad, Mom, and your sister are ordinary people."

When Zhang Yulin heard this, he suddenly realized that he was short-sighted.

The two men walked to a corner where no one noticed, and Ye Xiaoyang opened a secret door with some operation.

Zhang Yulin was stunned.

He now understood that things that were visible to everyone were naturally ordinary things.

Following his brother-in-law into the basement, Zhang Yulin was shocked to see boxes of opium.

Could it be that his brother-in-law was doing such a despised job? It was a little unbelievable.

“Brother-in-law! You…”

"Keep reading. If you're so impatient, what great things can you accomplish in the future? No matter how much you study, it will be in vain."

Being scolded by his brother-in-law, Zhang Yulin didn't dare to respond.

Continuing walking forward, I saw another workshop where workers were unpacking the opium and pouring it into the machine.

He was a student at Jinling Central University, and he quickly realized that this was the process of purifying opium.

There is such a processing technology? I have never heard of it. My brother-in-law will never do useless work.

"Come with me, there's an office inside."

Hearing his brother-in-law calling him, Zhang Yulin stopped watching and immediately followed.

After a while, two people entered an office.

"Brother-in-law."

"If you have any questions, just ask!"

"Brother-in-law, what do you use the purified opium for?"

"It's done in two steps. The first step is to send the purified opium to the United States. I call the purified opium Forget Worry Powder.

In the second step, a small amount of forget-me-not powder will be added to Xiongfeng No. 0, which is called Xiongfeng No. 1.

The Hsiung Feng II is mixed with more forget-me-not powder.

The Xiongfeng series, as the name suggests, is to help men regain their virility. Which age group do you think needs it?"

"A middle-aged or elderly wealthy man."

"Yes, that's a good point. The key is the rich. I only make money from rich people.

Then let me ask you, who are the richest people in this part of China?"

"Officials, businessmen, and..."

"Why did the Japanese invaders attack China?"

"Forty years ago, in the war, we Chinese paid hundreds of millions of taels of silver to the Japanese devils.

The Japanese leaders in China must be very rich, brother-in-law, what are you planning to do..."

"anything else?"

"besides……"

Zhang Yulin suddenly felt that his university education seemed to be in vain and his brain was not good enough.

"Where do we live?"

"The International Settlement? Yes, and the foreigners in the concession are very rich.

Brother-in-law, you plan to expand this business to the whole world."

"Finally, his mind has come to his senses. He's not hopeless after all."

My brother-in-law finally praised me, which is really rare.

"Brother-in-law, how do we sell it to them?"

"These few days, I'll take you all over the Bund. Where do the rich people in the Bund like to go the most?"

"The Paramount Nightclub is a place where money is spent."

"Yes, it's the Paramount Nightclub, waiting for the beautiful cruise ships to freely come to the Huangpu River Wharf on the Bund in Shanghai.

We can deliver the forget-me-not powder to San Francisco.

My brother has a factory in San Francisco that specializes in producing the Xiongfeng series of products.

Xiongfeng No. 0 is a pure sexual medicine. Xiongfeng No. 1, Xiongfeng No. 2 and Xiongfeng No. 3 have different contents of forget-me-not powder and their efficacy is also different.

The selling price will be very different in the future.”

"Brother-in-law, it should be very expensive, right?"

“Of course, ordinary people can’t afford it. The Xiongfeng series is not a product for ordinary people.

I have already planned the selling price: one bottle of Xiongfeng No. 1 for one large gold bar, and there are ten pills inside.

A bottle of Xiongfeng II costs two large gold bars, and a bottle also contains ten pills.

A bottle of Xiongfeng No. 3 costs four large gold bars, or ten pills per bottle."

After hearing this, Zhang Yulin finally understood why his brother-in-law was so generous. This was not making money, it was purely robbing money.

"If others knew how much money we made, they would try to cause trouble for us."

"It's getting better and better, that's true. Think about it, if you were the boss, what would you do?"

"Brother-in-law, please forgive me! I feel like compared to you, I haven't even graduated from elementary school."

"Tonight, I will take you to the Paramount Nightclub and let you see the rich people on the Bund.

How did they spend their money?"

"Brother-in-law, you haven't told me what to do yet?"

"It's simple. We'll cooperate with the Paramount Nightclub, share the profits, and say our Xiongfeng series are purely imported from the United States.

We have to ask them not to disclose that we are the only distributor of this product in China.

Otherwise, don’t cooperate.”

"Would they agree?"

“Give the sample to the person in charge of Paramount. The medicine is effective and can make money. He is not a fool.

You've always heard the saying, "The world is bustling with people because of profit, and the world is bustling with people because of profit, right?"

"Of course I've heard this before. It's very suitable for business."

"It's not just in the business world, it applies to any place where there's profit. Have you heard another saying?

There are no permanent friends, only permanent interests."

Zhang Yulin finally understood the meaning of the phrase "apply what you have learned". His brother-in-law had never attended university.

But his cultural level is much higher than mine, no wonder my father likes him so much.

There is no such thing as good luck in the world. My brother-in-law is a truly talented person.

"Brother-in-law, I understand."

"Do you think we should let the Japanese high-ranking officials eat it, or sell the products to Japan?

Compared to going to the front line, which one do you think is more meaningful?"

Zhang Yulin thought slowly and realized that the reason why the Opium War was such a tragic defeat was because the top leaders were indifferent.

Fu Shou Gao is the biggest driver. If one day my brother-in-law's Xiong Feng series is sold to Japan, the United States, and...

Wouldn't that be revenge for the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China?

Is there any need to compare? They are not even on the same level.

"Brother-in-law, I was wrong. If you have culture, you should do cultured things. If I go to the front line, I may not be as good as a rural youth."

"As long as you understand, as the saying goes, a thousand-mile horse is good, but it's no better than a guard dog.

Only when people are placed in the right positions can they realize their greatest value. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Thank you, brother-in-law! I will work harder in the future."

"In the basement, I built a special shooting training room. As long as the machine above is turned on, you can practice shooting here."

After Ye Xiaoyang finished speaking, he took out a Browning pistol from the drawer and handed it to Zhang Yulin.

"Brother-in-law, you..."

"Don't you want to play with a pistol? In this chaotic world, you can't be without skills. You must be able to protect yourself.

From now on, I will train you physically and teach you some basic fighting techniques every day."

Zhang Yulin felt that it was a perfect decision to come to Hujiang with his parents and brother-in-law.

He was only twenty years old, and there was still time for everything. He was not afraid of suffering a little.

If you want to join the army at that time, be prepared to endure hardships.

He didn't expect that his brother-in-law Ye Xiaoyang was both civil and military, and he didn't know how many guns there were in his brother-in-law's factory.

But there is no need to ask these questions.
