Chapter 659: Master Wang's Braised Beef Noodles

This time, the incident of being bullied by Dai Yunong ended with Wang Yan bowing his head and giving in.

He does have a strong personal action ability, but it is useless to kill too many unknown people. Killing important people will bring unpredictable dangers. Therefore, it is impossible to solve the problem based on action ability alone, and the actual situation is also different. The use of violence to solve problems is allowed.

Let’s not talk about distant matters, let’s just say that when the Youth League was established and Du Yong caused trouble, he couldn’t even kill Du Yong, not to mention Dai Yunong and Mao Qiwu, he couldn’t kill anyone. As for Feng Nairong and others who caused trouble, they can be killed, but correspondingly, they need to face temporary riots in the public concession, the French concession, and the Japanese-occupied area. This is not allowed by the British, French, American, and Japanese.

If Wang Yan was the source of the chaos, then he would be the first to die. This did not even mention that the Youth League had just been established. Du Yong already knew the news and started to fight against him. He had no chance to kill Feng Nairong and others. Even if one is killed first, they will elect a new person in charge. Because the key to the problem is not Feng Nairong and others, but Du Yong and other famous Green Gang figures behind them.

The situation when Feng Nairong and others faced Wang Yan was not even as good as when Wang Yan was blocked by Mao Qiwu in the breakfast shop. They were not of the same rank at all. Although Wang Yan kept calling him uncle, it was just a face-to-face title. After all, if Feng Nairong and others were really strong, there would be no Youth League established at all, and they would not ask him to be the leader to withstand the pressure from the Japanese.

The so-called wealth and honor come from danger. This time, Dai Yunong was killed on the way. As a result, Wang Yan did not receive wealth and honor, but was left with danger.

Mao Qiwu's approach did not exceed Wang Yan's expectations. After more than a week of traveling, when Mao Qiwu returned to Chongqing, he immediately found the person in charge of Yonghua Industrial there, Wang Yan's loyal subordinate, and sent a letter through him. After more than a week, this letter arrived on Wang Yan's desk. It said that Mao Qiwu had no choice but to express his apology and that the relationship should continue. This opened the door for Wang Yan to let Yonghua's goods go. , you can get more access to the Soviet area.

Although it is now a united front and the two parties are sincerely cooperating, it is actually very difficult to transport supplies to the Soviet area. But this basically means that there is no benefit, because the Soviet area is mostly mountainous and the roads are not smooth, making it difficult to deliver goods in large quantities. In addition, Wang Yan delivered goods for free. In addition to maintaining his own personality, raising tens of thousands of workers and thousands of subordinates, and funding the Shanghai underground party, he basically invested all his money. If he wanted to ship in large quantities, he didn't have the ability.

And he knew that in the future, he had to consider the impact of what he did at this time on the Japanese after their defeat. These are all accounts that will have to be settled in the future.

So Mao Qiwu's words can basically be treated as farts. At the same time, the money that should be given to Dai Yunong must also be sent to him. You can have opinions, but things must not go wrong, otherwise Dai Yunong, a petty man, will cause trouble for him. If you are a dog, you can't break his legs, so you have to hold them in.

At the same time, the People's Action Committee was established as quietly as possible. Du Yong must have come up with a complete plan before taking action, so he acted very quickly.

But their silence is almost the same as that of a famous brand. Wang Yan knows it, the Red Party knows it, and the Japanese know it even better.

Wang Manchun smoothed his long hair, put it all behind his back, curled up under the quilt, found a comfortable position and leaned in Wang Yan's arms, talking about business in the future: "What's going on with the Youth League? Why are you so busy lately?" A big move?”

"Don't you know? Why do you need to ask me?"

"It was Section Chief Nantian who said it. She wanted to hear the truth from your mouth."

Wang Yan sighed, lit a cigarette, and took a melancholy puff: "Tell me what you have learned, and I'll see if I can tell you."

Wang Manchun did not hesitate, she said: "Du Yong contacted Dai Yunong and wanted to establish a People's Action Committee. We know that his purpose is not to resist Japan, but to seize your power, or he does not want to lose his foundation. We know It was discovered that he even alerted Chiang Kai-shek and funded the Loyalty and Salvation Army, which relieved Dai Yunong's financial pressure. The Chongqing government sent people to coordinate the arrangements, and there was also news that Dai Yunong's secretary was cooperating. Mao Qiwu came to Shanghai secretly..."

The words stopped here. The meaning is obvious. The Japanese have mastered the entire process of this incident. The only thing they don't know is whether Mao Qiwu saw Wang Yan and what he said after meeting him.

Moreover, Wang Manchun’s words conveyed a very important message. They have internal agents in the government and military command in Chongqing, as well as in the Shanghai Station of the military command, and within the Youth League.

In this way, Wang Tianfeng can still do it. The seven or eight people he brought over that day were all truly reliable personnel.

Wang Yan nodded and said: "Yes, Mao Qiwu did meet with me. After all, if they want to do something, they have to go through me. He didn't say anything special, he just helped Du Yong make peace and conveyed it to me. Dai Yunong’s decision. So as you can see, the Youth League made a series of changes, but I, the leader of the Youth League, did nothing. But it didn’t mean that there were no benefits. From now on, I will be the one responsible for the Youth League Bank. Forget it.”

Of course he would not be stupid enough to say that if he disagreed, the military commander would kill him. Such things that undermine unity cannot be told outside, and the Japanese cannot take advantage of them. Mao Qiwu, Du Yong, Wang Tianfeng and others will all remain tight-lipped.

"Are you willing?"

"Why are you unwilling to give in? You understand the principle of contentment and happiness. I am a person who can bend and stretch. In these days and years, I can survive in the cracks. How can I ask for more? If you can get it, it is a blessing. If you can't get it, it is a blessing. , that means I don’t have enough blessings, and I still need to continue doing good deeds to accumulate virtue. Maybe I should really consider opening an orphanage, a nursery, or something like that, so that I can accumulate more virtue.”

Wang Yan shook his head and asked, "Will the Japanese take action?"

"I don't know. We are still waiting to see how this People's Action Committee develops. If they dare to organize workers to go on strike and cause trouble, they will definitely arrest a group of them. If they do nothing but compete with you for power and profit, then it depends on yourselves. Let’s fight. Section Chief Nantian said that in Shanghai now, it is better to keep stability as the premise and it is not suitable to go to war. "

"No, this matter has been brought to Chiang Kai-shek. How dare they really not do anything? But it's probably just to get some supplies. When the military commander and the central commander take action, they will cooperate and cover up. This one by one , I think my life is too long, follow me honestly, it would be great to make a fortune steadily, damn people can't help it..."

Wang Manchun rubbed his strong muscles: "You are still unwilling to give in. I don't see you sighing on weekdays. You are just stubborn..."

"Stop it, needless to say. If I really wanted to defect to the Japanese, I would have defected with Zhang Xiaolin. Why do you need to persuade me today? I just have the freedom to patrol in the French Concession, and I can save a lot of trouble. In fact, if I defect to the Japanese , the two parties will also come to contact me, and they will want me to provide internal support for them. Even if the thing is not done by me, when the time comes, I will really destroy some Japanese actions and kill some important people. You said Japan. What will people think of me? I will probably die in the end. How can I be happy now?"

She rubbed her muscles, and of course he played with the big baby. He changed the subject and said, "Let me tell you two pieces of good news."

"Can you still have good news?"

"Of course, the Youth Gang lost power in the struggle for power, but it was very rewarding in other places." Wang Yan said with a smile: "My immediate boss, Steven Mitchell, is looking for a way to be transferred back to China, and plans to retire. . If this matter is done, then the position of Inspector General will be mine. Do you think it will be more important to the Japanese if I am promoted to Inspector General? Will I be able to live a peaceful life for a long time? ?”

"Of course, the Inspector General is already the core manager of the patrol room. You will know more valuable information and it will be more helpful to our actions. Are you sure?" Wang Manchun didn't answer. Wang Manchun said it was me. In a silly tone, he asked and answered himself: "That's right. You are such a cautious person, so it must be a sure thing. Even that Mitchell doesn't want to leave. With your behavior, you will also let him Take it away. I will report to Section Chief Nantian tomorrow, what is the other good news? "

"The research I have been doing with the teachers, students and some skilled workers in Datong has ended. Next week, the beverage factory will officially start operations, and half a month later, the noodle factory will also start production. We will start recruiting workers tomorrow, and we will start production in two days. The invitation has made those people laugh a lot in the past six months, but I don’t think any of them can laugh this time.”

"Is it really done?"

"Why did you lie to me?"

"Can you really make a lot of money by selling it?"

"Of course, I will also sell it to Europe and the United States. I will definitely make a lot of money."

Looking at Wang Manchun's wide eyes, Wang Yan shook his head in a funny way and stroked her head: "No need to be so surprised. I have invested so much money and found so many people. Datong University is about to suspend classes. Everyone is here." Help me with my research. Besides, I'm not really a gangster. I know a lot more than you. After working with them for half a year, I have become a scholar who is proficient in science. I should get the results in a few days. Yes, the beverage factory and the noodle factory will open on the same day, and we are currently recruiting workers to familiarize themselves with production.”

"Then I wish Inspector Wang a fortune first?" Wang Manchun teased Wang Yan and laughed coquettishly.

But after laughing, she stopped laughing. She only exclaimed: "Are you coming again? After washing... um..."

This time it really paid off. The next day, Yonghua Industrial published recruitment information in newspapers and radio.

In this day and age, it is difficult to have a job. There are so many people coming to Shanghai, and job opportunities are very rare. Not to mention that Wang Yan has always been known as a good boss, and Yonghua Industrial's overall treatment is basically the best in Shanghai. With the newly opened factory this time, the treatment will naturally not be bad. On the one hand, wages include firewood, rice, oil and salt during the New Year, and subsidies for heating in winter. These are all what workers need, and they are very real. The most important thing is that Wang Yanqing has a golden reputation as a gangster, working for him, and if he is bullied, Shi Changxing will come forward to ensure a stable life.

Therefore, although more than 2,000 recruitment quotas have been issued this time, it is still not enough to solve the crisis of the poor people.

In fact, the news that Wang Yan was recruiting workers had been leaked two days before the recruitment was planned. Because there were many people handling it, they all had poor relatives who were struggling, so they all went back and told their relatives early. In addition, there are the staff of radio stations, people from newspapers, and people from printing plants. They all know it. Therefore, before the message was sent, many people were already blocking the door of the factory.

Moreover, the moment they saw the newspaper and heard the broadcast, they put down what they were doing and gathered outside the two adjacent factories through various methods. In a short time, thousands of people gathered, and some were still rushing here, and soon surrounded the factory.

The recruitment was handled by two factory managers transferred from Yonghua Industry, but it was Shi Changxing, the second leader of the gangster gang, who was in charge. Shi Changxing's sloppy appearance did not have a good reputation. The rumors in Shanghai were all about his evil deeds. Of course, that was also a sacrifice for the boss. Without Wang Yan's order, he did not dare to act privately.

The large number of people was expected long ago, so although it was very busy, it was also progressing in an orderly manner. There were only three conditions for a group of fifty people: literacy first, good health second, large family members, and difficulty in livelihood third. With such continuous recruitment, there were many people, and there was no fear of not recruiting enough 2,000. It not only ensures the basic quality and loyalty of the personnel, but also fully demonstrates the humanity of Wang Yan, the current largest gangster leader in Shanghai, and gains a wave of word-of-mouth and increases influence.

This is very important. At any time, having influence is a good thing. Especially at this time, with Wang Yan's current power, he can easily organize most people in Shanghai to launch a strike and a school boycott movement, and even easily cause a water and power outage, which will arouse more people to take to the streets and let those who want water and electricity join the strike and school boycott movement. That is an overwhelming force. And most importantly, he had armed forces...

At the same time, all the invitations were printed and distributed, including some foreigners who cooperated with him in the French Concession and the International Settlement, some detectives and captains who had some friendship with him, some celebrities in the business community, whether they had surrendered to the Japanese or not, gangsters in the Green Gang, whether they had surrendered to the Japanese or not, Iwai Eiichi, Omura Akihiro, Minamida Yoko, Muramoto Ichiro, and other consulate, army, and navy personnel who had contacted him, senior officials of the Japanese puppet government, all the teachers and students of Datong University, who were not many in number, as well as the captains, deputy captains, and group leaders under his command, and even the neighbors around Wang Mansion, including the Ming family.

Anyway, he knew them all, whether they had grudges or not, and he invited everyone he could. In addition, many newspapers such as Shenbao, Jingbao, and Dongfang Daily sent people to interview and report, and he bought the front pages of many newspapers.

Beverages were already available at this time, so it was not uncommon, but instant noodles were just launched, authentic braised beef noodles. And his drinks were better, soda and juice, in two flavors. The soda is old soda, and the juice is hawthorn juice. The soda is cheap, but the juice is expensive.

He invited so many celebrities, Japanese, foreign devils, traitors, gangsters, and newspapers to come, just for hype, and Wang Yan is also very proficient in this aspect. The grander the scene, the better, and the more intensive the reports, the better. So many people, all came to endorse him, and they will quickly spread instant noodles and drinks everywhere.

Not only that, he also invited cultural celebrities to come, and gave them high rewards to ask them to go back and write articles, and he would help these people publish them in newspapers of all channels.

In the final analysis, it is these cultural people who have the ability to consume. Instant noodles can be sold to peddlers and hawkers, after all, the price is cheap, equivalent to a meal, but they probably won't consume drinks, which are not enough to fill their stomachs, and they are much worse at quenching thirst. They will buy a bottle for the greedy children to taste.

Consumption is something that can only be done in such an era, with cultural people who are in a good mood...

Finally, the time came to the end of October.

A few days ago, Wang Zhaoming met with reporters and said that the "door to an armistice has not been closed"...

On this day, Guangzhou fell!

On this day, Master Wang's instant noodle factory and Shanghai beverage factory held a grand opening ceremony amid a burst of firecrackers and fireworks, gongs and drums, dragon and lion dances.

The scene was unprecedentedly grand, and the guests were huge. Basically, all those who received the invitation came, just to see what Wang Yan, the biggest joke in Shanghai, had done after working for half a year, which was worth such a scene.

Except for a part of these people, there was no one with a low social status. Basically, they brought their families and subordinates and were driven by drivers. Therefore, the cars were parked far away. At this time, 60% of the cars in Shanghai were parked here. You can imagine how congested it was.

Of course, this cannot reflect Wang Yan's connections. After all, many of them are enemies here, but they have not torn their faces and maintained the so-called decency with each other. But this well shows Wang Yan's status and influence, because if he is not qualified, let alone whether these people will come, it is a question of whether the invitation can be delivered.

However, many people did not come in person, such as Iwai Eiichi, Minami Yoko, and other high-ranking officials of the army and navy, as well as high-ranking officials of the puppet government. These people did not come in person, but sent their subordinates with gifts to participate in the whole process. After all, there are many people here, and the composition is complicated. If the operatives of the Military Control Commission and the Red Party sneak in and find an opportunity to get close to them, it would be too sad to kill them directly, so they dare not come.

The rest of the people all estimated whether it was worth it for the Military Control Commission and the Red Party to risk offending Wang Yan to assassinate them, and then decided whether to come. Obviously, those who came felt that it was not worth it. But even so, they all had a high social status and held power and wealth.

As the host, Wang Yan stood on the high platform and gave a passionate speech using the microphone and loudspeaker that he had spent a lot of money to make.

"Since he started researching new products, Wang has become a big joke in Shanghai. Everyone present, as well as the workers and students, all think that Wang is an uneducated Youth Gang gangster, and they all think that a gangster picks up a book to read. , and even doing any scientific research is a big deal in the world. Wang has never been disturbed by this, and he is even very happy. The beach in Shanghai is full of flowers during the day, but there is a murderous scene every step of the way. Everyone, as well as workers, students, traffickers, working people, and even homeless beggars, provide some laughter. That is Wang’s immeasurable merit...

Cooking and cooking are called master chefs, and others think they are professional. This noodle I have is called instant noodles. Why do you say noodles? ...The name is Master Wang, and this king is Wang’s king. I have made everyone laugh before, and I will make everyone laugh again in the future. Whenever I see Master Wang, I will think of Wang, which is also Wang's honor. As for the name of the soda drink, Wang thought about it for a long time. This is also China's first local carbonated drink, so the name must be down-to-earth. Saying "Give me a bottle of Shanghai" in the store will also be more interesting. More courageous, more heroic..."

Of course he is a good speaker. After all, a cultural person who cannot speak is not a good hooligan. Start to close the distance, eliminate misunderstandings, and then gradually introduce the product and introduce it in detail. This is a very basic process, just how to say it.

This is the first time that Wang Yan, a Green Gang tycoon, has stood in front of the stage and appeared publicly in front of people from all walks of life. People had some misunderstandings about him before, but after this time, I believe people will understand who he is.

This is another reason why he has made it so grand. Today, 70% of Shanghai's upper class are here, and he wants to further demonstrate his own value. Dai Yunong helped Du Yong seize his power. He wanted Dai Yunong and others to take a good look at whether he, Wang, could really humiliate him at will on this three-quarter acre of land in Shanghai. If this happens again next time , we need to take a deeper look at ourselves...

After some experience in promoting products, Wang Yan personally took people to walk around the factory. He used a loudspeaker to introduce the health and safety of the factory and the production process. The purpose was to reassure everyone that the things entering the factory should not be unscrupulous. . And this group of people will definitely look down on these cheap things, but they must not be disgusted.

After taking so many people to all the buildings of the two factories and introducing all the processes, we took them to the open space outside the factory.

The open space was filled with long tables and stools without backrests. Thousands of workers wear uniform blue overalls, giving people a different mental outlook.

Some of them came over with instant noodles and distributed them to everyone sitting at the table. They tore open the packages and stumblingly explained to the big shots what the ingredients in the packages were made of and how to brew them. Some were carrying large hot water bottles. When someone called someone, they quickly and carefully poured boiling water over. Others took bottles of soda and hawthorn juice and distributed them to everyone. Others were holding bottle openers, following behind the French drinkers, and opening bottles with a bang. Others are distributing clean paper for those who think the drinks are dirty to wipe them themselves. Finally, they distributed plastic straws so that they could suck on them if they were not used to drinking from bottles.

The reporters did not bother to eat. They took photos with people, the spotlights flickered, taking pictures of the rare scenery of Shanghai Beach, and interviewed people who had already started to taste Master Wang’s braised beef noodles...

In the middle of the long table, Ming Jing looked at his younger brother who was shaking his legs angrily, and secretly pinched his good brother's waist under the table: "Look at you, can you be more honest? You can't sit properly, you're so loose." , you should let your elder brother deal with you severely..."
