Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

The Paramount is still the Paramount.

Mr. Du is also capable. So many Japanese died here yesterday, but the place is still full of guests today. If you don’t have certain connections in Pujiang Beach, no matter how rich you are, you probably won’t be able to fill the seats.

Usually, this place would be busiest at 10 o'clock in the evening, but today, it was already full as soon as it got dark. I have to admire Boss Du's appeal.

Everyone knew that Mr. Du was going to have a drink and talk with Li Shaoyi here tonight, and everyone also knew what happened here last night. If it was too quiet, Mr. Du might lose face, so these guys used their brains and quickly asked for a stage to support Mr. Du.

Before seven o'clock in the evening, the private rooms and outdoor seats were basically all full. Of course, the one in the middle of the second floor must be Mr. Du's.

"General Li, hello, I'm the manager here, Deng Tianyu."

The person who opened the door for Li Shaoyi was the new manager of Paramount. Liu Tian, ​​who was there yesterday, had already been dismissed.

"Wasn't it Manager Liu yesterday? Why is it you today?"

Li Shaoyi nodded with a smile and took the cigarette handed to him.

"Boss Du said that Manager Liu didn't get along with you and was transferred to another place."

Li Shaoyi felt very pleased with these few short words. Once he became the manager of Paramount, he would definitely continue to work there as long as nothing went wrong. Moreover, not everyone was qualified. He had to be a direct disciple of the three tycoons. Such a person would be considered a top figure in the Pujiang foreign concessions.

Now he changed it without any hesitation, not only taking Li Shaoyi's face into consideration, but also trampling on Marshal Zhang's face. After all, Liu Tian was his disciple.

"Manager Deng, you're going to have great things in the future. When I treat you, please give me a discount."

Li Shaoyi walked in jokingly. It could be seen that Manager Deng should be Mr. Du's man. Because he offended himself and what happened yesterday, the manager of the Paramount was replaced. Marshal Zhang's retreat should have been compensated by Mr. Du from somewhere else.

"Look at what you're saying. If you have time, come to our Paramount and all your expenses are on me. If you come often, you'll be doing us a favor."

Manager Deng was indeed a good talker. As he led Li Shaoyi forward, he kept making small talk, making Li Shaoyi laugh. He was much better than the manager from yesterday. When Li Shaoyi and Miss Yu came yesterday, that guy didn't even show up. "Aren't you aloof?" he asked. "Today, you've been banished to the cold palace."

"General Li, let me introduce my master, Mr. Du Yunsheng, Chairman of the Pujiang Sanxin Group."

Although the Paramount was full of people, the music did not start. Mr. Du was standing in the middle of the hall below, wearing a light-colored robe and holding a fan in his hand. He did not look like a gangster at all, but rather looked a bit like a scholar.

"My name is Li Shaoyi, nice to meet you, Mr. Du."

Li Shaoyi also took two quick steps and bowed first.

"General Li, you are so kind to come to my place. I am Du Yunsheng, but I am just a pear seller in Pujiang. Please..."

Mr. Du also quickly bowed to return the greeting. He really did not have the temper of the three Pujiang tycoons. In the early years, Mr. Du was also very fierce. Now that he has money and status, he has become more and more polite. He led Li Shaoyi to walk up the spiral staircase next to him and slowly walked towards the second floor.

Many people along the way also took off their hats and greeted Li Shaoyi and Mr. Du, but given their status, they just nodded.

Li Shaoyi had seen such scenes in TV dramas before. He didn't expect that not long after his rebirth, he would come to this foreign land and become a core figure.

The location right in the center of the second floor is indeed the best location in the entire Paramount.

Compared with where Li Shaoyi sat yesterday, that place was not worth mentioning at all. This is the best place to watch singing and dancing. You can also see the people dancing below, as well as the booths on both sides. If you want to see some gossip, this is also the best choice.

Mr. Du raised his hand slightly, and Manager Deng snapped his fingers towards the stage. Cheerful music immediately started playing, and more than a dozen dancers rushed onto the stage and began to perform today's opening dance for Li Shaoyi.

"Mr. Du, this is a really great place. Look from here. Judging from the attire of the people at those two tables over there, they should be members of the United States Marine Corps. A little closer, they should be people from some foreign consulate, and there are also people from the Pujiang government..."

I couldn't see it so comprehensively yesterday, but today, looking down from a high vantage point, I can see that almost every person at each table has their own characteristics. Li Shaoyi has a good eye and can recognize what these people do. No wonder the Japanese attach so much importance to this place. If there is a popular dancer here, I don't know how much information can be obtained every day.

"You're right. Since its establishment, this place has always been a favorite destination for Pujiang dignitaries. But now it's a bit out of its element. After the Japanese arrived yesterday, I started having a headache."

Mr. Du was not being pretentious, he really felt a headache.

Such entertainment venues were originally created to compete with foreigners. Previously, the most prosperous dance halls in Pujiang were all in the hands of foreigners, and Chinese people were not allowed to enter.

So Mr. Huang and his wife founded the Paramount. From that time on, the Chinese had a place for high-end entertainment. When it comes to playing tricks, the foreigners are no match for us. After the Chinese became big in the concession, this place became the only high-end entertainment venue in the concession.

Chinese and foreigners all hang out here, and it has become a hub for intelligence distribution. Intelligence dealers from various countries even use it as a base, but they only play small-scale games, which does not make Mr. Du feel worried.

But since the Japanese sent people here, life here has not been so good.

"What's there to worry about? The Japanese are our enemies. Do we even need to consider this? We'll just fight them one by one. If Mr. Du shows any mercy, the Japanese might infiltrate your subordinates. Then, no matter what you want to do, the Japanese might not be able to stop you."

Mr. Du believed what Li Shaoyi said. The Japanese were outsiders in Pujiang. If they wanted to gain a foothold in this place, they had to bribe the local people of Pujiang. The subordinates of the three tycoons, and even the three tycoons themselves, were all targets that the Japanese wanted to bribe.

"Mr. Li, do you have any thoughts on investing in Paramount?"

Mr. Du handed Li Shaoyi a cigar...
