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

Chapter 682: Testing the Waters with Counterfeit Currency

In the next week, Li Shaoyi mobilized a lot of personnel from the Northern Bank and sent them to various places to take over the Risheng Bank.

The Nanjing National Government was also very satisfied with the handling of this matter. At least there was no fighting, and the other party's counterfeit currency was burned. If this matter continued to develop, our country's financial stability would be in jeopardy.

Of course, many people in the Ministry of Finance were still very dissatisfied with Li Shaoyi's acquisition of Risheng Bank. They believed that Boss Dai and Director Xu were too weak and should argue with Li Shaoyi.

He was a local force, and he defeated the Japanese under the banner of the National Government. Why should he get the biggest piece of the cake? When these people went to the old man to make trouble, the old man was too lazy to talk nonsense with them and just threw down a sentence: If you dare to fire at the Japanese Marines, you can go and argue with Li Shaoyi.

Other people's banks didn't come out of thin air, they also took risks. You guys are safe staying in Jinling. When things were rushing up, you all hid behind. Now that the cake is divided, you see that you got a small share, and you are unhappy again. Do you think you have taken all the good things in the world?

Li Shaoyi also held grand weddings with Yu Qiuer in Pujiang and Jinling. Of course, many young men were not happy about it, so when they attended the weddings, they looked as if they wanted to kill Li Shaoyi.

Of course, Miss Yu also received a lot of jealous eyes. Li Shaoyi can now be said to be the most dazzling political star of the National Government. He has the most powerful army in the country and millions of square kilometers of land in the north. These are things that these young men in Jinling cannot compare with. Even some married young ladies feel uncomfortable when they see this so-called young and talented husband next to them.

If we could have held off for a year or two, and met Li Shaoyi under such circumstances, perhaps the title of Mrs. Li would have been ours.

Look at Yu Qiuer, she just got married and immediately got a bunch of titles.

The most important of them is a member of the Central Women's Committee, and she also serves as the chairman of the Pujiang Women's Committee.

For a woman, being able to have a name on the Central Women's Committee is a symbol of her man's power. After all, there are only more than 30 people in the entire country. Yu Qiuer was able to squeeze in because of Li Shaoyi's power.

As for the chairman of the Pujiang Women's Committee, this is even more of a symbol of power and wealth.

The previous chairman was the wife of the mayor of Pujiang City. Now she has taken the initiative to step down. The Yu family itself has considerable influence in Pujiang, and with the support of Li Shaoyi, if she still stays in her original position, it will be difficult to see the future.

Originally, for many bigwigs in Jinling, this marriage was at most a matter of envy. It was considered a powerful alliance.

But at the wedding, when people from both sides toasted each other, everyone realized that they had misjudged something before. With the support of the Yu family and Li Shaoyi's influence in the north, they have now become a powerful faction within the party-state that is thriving.

What Li Shaoyi lacked before was support from within the party and the country. Although several superiors had a good relationship with Li Shaoyi, it was not as good as this kind of in-law relationship. The old man of the Yu family was the vice-president of the Executive Yuan, and with the branches of other departments, it was no exaggeration to say that he was extremely powerful.

"What do you think? If our Marshal marries you, combined with the strength of your Li family, can he compete with the old man?"

Wu Zhenkui, holding a wine glass in his hand, found Li Sibei sitting in the corner. If you were to say that someone was disappointed, many beauties at the scene would feel uncomfortable. After all, everyone wanted to sit in that position, but if you were to find the most disappointed person among them, it would probably be Li Sibei.

"If you have something to say, then get out of here."

Although both of them were high-ranking officials of the National Government, one was the director of the Pujiang Police Department and the other was the director of the 72nd Army's Nanjing Office, and their ranks were not low, they had worked together before, so they spoke more casually.

"Brother, I'm here to encourage you. Even though you're married now, there are times when you can overtake others. Women don't compete for weddings, but for their bellies at the crucial moment."

Wu Zhenkui didn't move his mouth much, but Li Sibei heard everything he said.

"You didn't mean well by saying this, did you?"

Li Sibei suddenly understood that Yu Qiuer's marriage was not just about a girl, but also about the huge Jiangnan Yu family behind her.

Everyone present knew how powerful pillow talk was. Just look at the wife above. So Wu Zhenkui had to find a way to make plans. If Li Sibei became Li Shaoyi's second wife, the relationship between you two would become a microphone for passing messages throughout the entire 72nd Army in the future.

"That's what you said. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The Yu family has quite a few people in the army, and they will definitely join the 72nd Army on a large scale in the future. If I still want to keep my current position, or even get promoted in the future, do you think I can rely on Miss Yu?"

Wu Zhenkui pursed his lips. Li Sibei, who had been accustomed to the alternation of power since childhood, of course understood what Wu Zhenkui meant. A woman relies on her belly, and in the future it will not be the daughter-in-law who will inherit the family business, but the sons of the next generation. It all depends on whose belly is more promising.

After figuring this out, Li Sibei breathed a sigh of relief. The pain had been weighing on her throat for two consecutive days, which was really uncomfortable. Although Wu Zhenkui was unreliable, a word or two from him could comfort her at the critical moment.

"Go tell the band to change the song to Night River."

After Li Sibei stood up, she shook her dark purple dress with her hand, then walked to Li Shaoyi in the crowd and slowly stretched out her hand.

Li Shaoyi looked at the girl in front of him and really didn't know what to say, including Li Qiankun who flew back to attend the wedding.

"Would my lady have the honor of inviting you to a dance?"

Li Qiankun immediately handed the wine glass to the person next to him, and then invited Yu Qiuer to dance.

Li Shaoyi also sighed that this old man knew how to behave.

"What are you doing?"

When people were dancing on the dance floor, there were only these four people at first, but soon others came in. As the noisy sounds came, Li Shaoyi's dissatisfied voice also started to scold.

"This is a dance, and I asked my boss to dance. What's wrong with that? Is that not okay? Have you never danced with me before?"

Li Sibei said with her eyes wide open and an innocent look on her face, which choked Li Shaoyi.
