The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord

Independence Army member Zhang Ye arrived in Shanghai successfully and met with many students at the station!

"Independence Army Commander, Zhang Ye's True Appearance Revealed!"

Independence Army General Zhang Ye stated that he would never cooperate with foreigners!

The wave is coming, various forces are gathering in Shanghai, the show is about to begin!

……

That afternoon, the major newspapers, which had been holding back all day, frantically published various news about the Independence Army, and modified and circulated Zhang Ye's speech at the station in various ways.

Because of this incident, people in Shanghai were so busy that they did nothing but go out. They bought five or six copies of the newspaper, especially the one about Zhang Ye's real photo, which was sold out in an instant and became an extremely popular item.

After all, after hearing the name for so long and seeing the excitement for so many days, everyone is full of curiosity about this leader of the independence army who has never appeared.

Everyone wants to see what makes this legendary figure so special.

However, when Zhang Ye's true appearance was exposed, the wave of admiration for him not only did not decrease, but instead increased exponentially again.

Among this group of people, most are young girls, students, daughters from wealthy families, and even some sisters working in special industries.

They don't care what party you belong to, what opinions you have expressed, or what earth-shaking things you have done.

These people only care about one thing, that is appearance and fame.

The young and tender Zhang Ye just fell into their hearts. He was of noble status, handsome, and most importantly, young and unmarried.

The combination of these conditions was more effective than the most powerful aphrodisiac in the world, attracting young girls to compete for his love. Those with connections at home began to look for connections everywhere, preparing to meet Zhang Ye in person.

The girls from ordinary families were not idle either. They knew that their status was low and it was a pipe dream for them to meet Zhang Ye through normal means, so they researched a quick way and planned to express their admiration and love by placing an advertisement in the newspaper.

This actually put the newspapers in a difficult position.

In the next few days, warlords from all sides will basically arrive in Shanghai. There will not be enough space on the front page, let alone space to deal with these possessed girls.

……

In the International Settlement, there is an exceptionally comfortable villa area.

In the extremely gorgeously decorated living room, exquisite oil paintings hang on the walls, and the lighting is soft and warm, reflecting every exquisite decoration.

Three large sofas were placed in an arc shape, and three middle-aged men were sitting leisurely in front of the simple and elegant tea table.

They were dressed in proper Chinese robes and held exquisite teacups in their hands, the tea in the cups emitting a light fragrance.

One of them, who was thin with slightly prominent cheekbones, pointed at the newspaper on the table and chuckled.

"This Zhang Ye is really crazy. He publicly stated that he would not cooperate with foreigners. He has completely killed this path."

"Young man, with a little capital, if things go smoothly for a few years, wouldn't you be crazy?"

In the middle, another fat guy with a round face savored the tea in his hand and spoke calmly.

"Later, he'll realize how ridiculous his words were today. He just lacks experience."

"These days, every year there are three or two warlords who fall. Isn't the Duan faction powerful? Didn't they also fall in a mess this year?"

The last person leaned against the edge of the table, holding two walnuts in his hands and playing with them carefully, with a disdainful smile on his face, and said sarcastically.

"Just wait and see, this kid has offended all the foreigners in one go, and he might very well be the next to fall!"

"By then, he'll know who to rely on. Being awesome for a while isn't a big deal; being awesome for a lifetime is the real deal!"

"So what should we do now? Should we go to this charity dinner?"

The man who asked the question earlier looked at the two of them while holding up the newspaper in his hand.

The three brothers are the famous three giants in Shanghai. They are also influential figures in this area. Not only do they have many friends in the political and business circles, but they also have thousands of subordinates.

Many newspapers are keeping a close eye on their actions, so it is indeed difficult to make a decision at this critical juncture.

"Why are you going?! Our Sanxin Company has the support of foreigners behind it. Why would we offend them for such a small matter?"

The round-faced fat man looked dissatisfied and cursed angrily.

"Besides, I, Huang Jinrong, am only the Chief Inspector of the Concession. I have no way of getting involved in this matter."

"This Zhang Ye is such a jerk! Why did you have to come to Shanghai when you could hold your charity dinner anywhere else?"

"I think we should go." Du Yuesheng shook his head, squinting his eyes as he stared at the newspapers on the table. He said softly, "Recently, all the reports have been about this matter. If the people from Sanxin Company don't show up that night, there will definitely be a lot of gossip the next day."

"Although our business has nothing to do with ordinary people and we're not afraid of their nonsense, being labeled a traitor is not a good thing."

"Since we've come to this, then you can go." Zhang Xiaolin, who was tackling walnuts, was a smart man. He took this opportunity to push him out. "Just donate 18,000 yuan on behalf of our Sanxin Company as a token of appreciation."

"Anyway, this thing is just a formality. As long as someone shows up, it means something."

"I'll go?" Du Yuesheng looked at the two brothers with a playful smile on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded: "Okay, I'll go."

He knew in his heart that Huang Jinrong would generally not come into contact with any forces, but would only follow the footsteps of foreigners and be content with just sitting firmly in the position of inspector.

As for Zhang Xiaolin, he is also a man without any ambition. He seems to be very serious when he makes a lot of noise on weekdays, but in fact it is all bluffing. He has no courage and dares not to offend foreigners.

After thinking about it, it is most appropriate for him to go. It would be even more perfect if he could meet some powerful people and make more connections at this banquet.

Du Yuesheng knew very well that personal connections were the most important thing these days. Only by making more friends and placing more bets could he ensure that he lived longer.
