C3495 Zhang Xiaowen was going to commit suicide (1/2)
Opium Ointment s, black, with a glossy shine. This was high-quality Indian horseshoe soil, in the Great Qing market, one tael of silver could be exchanged for one silver coin!
Ordinary people would not be able to smoke such pure opium. Many of the opium workshops would dope the pure Opium Ointment with the same substance, including the opium produced at home. This resulted in a mixed market of opium!
But people who can afford to own a garden house in a Shanghai concession would never smoke poor native opium, and they would have to be good Indian horseshoes.
However, the person in front of him was clearly not a drug addict, because in front of him, there were no tools like fireworks, only a bowl of wine and a large piece of Opium Ointment.
”Wuwuwu …” I was wrong, I was really wrong! ”I don't want to die …”
The people in the room were kneeling on the ground and crying, but no one dared to enter the room, as all the servants had been thrown out.
It was very difficult for Opium Ointment to swallow raw, they would need a bowl of wine to do so.
The man grabbed a handful of opium and tried a few times, but failed to find the courage to put it into his mouth. Tears and snot flowed everywhere. How much he missed this world, how much luck he had to enjoy before he reached the age of forty.
But he had committed a great sin, and it was impossible for him to survive!
”I've been blinded by lard! ”Why am I so confused …” After saying that, the man finally mustered up enough courage. She opened his mouth and was about to stuff the Opium Ointment into his mouth.
At this time, the door burst open with a bang. Three strong men rushed in, surrounded by a group of martial arts masters.
”Zhang Xiaowen! Are you crazy? ”Quick, stop him …”
With a roar, one of the guards rushed over like the wind, his finger tapped on Zhang Xiaowen's wrist, causing the Opium Ointment to tumble to the ground.
The red-crowned merchant, Hu Xueyan, angrily walked over and slapped him!
Zhang Xiaowen, one of the Second Manager s under Hu Xueyan's command had coincidentally become the liaison for trading with the Chinese race. It was this person who had brazenly reported Lin Yuanmiao's case of corruption to Xiao Letian.
Lin Zhen's father, the old subject of the Ryukyu, Lin Yuanmiao, had also died from shame because of this corruption crime!
It was precisely because of this that Zhang Xiaowen was respected as Zhang Dadan by his peers in the financial circles. It was also because of his unparalleled courage and a few praises from Xiao Letian, that caused his road of wealth to fly up like wings.
The current Zhang Xiaowen was already the number one subordinate of Hu Xueyan, he controlled the investment quota of nearly seven million silver. As long as he invested below this scale, he would be able to make his own decisions without asking Hu Xueyan.
These few years, Zhang Xiaowen had formed a close relationship with the Chinese, Jiangnan, Nan Yang and even the European Union's people.
Actually, finance is just a circle. In this circle, people are all helping each other and paying great attention to factions and inheritances!
If everyone made a fortune together, then there would be a lot of profitable business that would not be left outside. It would be a matter of internal consumption … These people call their transactions the primary market.
The real common people outside, the creditors, the people who own paper money... They were just leek that could be plundered at will!
Ever since Zhang Xiaowen had entered the financial circle, he had realized how easy it was to earn money. Many investments did not have any risks at all.
For example, Niu Jinfu from the Four Seas Group, he was a great god level merchant from the Eastern Ocean trade. He wanted to eat ten million silver coins worth of rice in Nanyang City, and if he did not have enough money, he would be able to break down six million.
Do you think there's a need for this kind of business to ask grandpa and grandma to invest in the secondary market? Who in the world didn't know that the Four Seas Group was closely related to the leader? They had all been established during the chaos in Tanggu.
