088 The lower class, the upper class elite
Back at the textile factory, Zhang Qijie returned to his usual calm expression and chatted with Editor-in-Chief Zheng in the office. Wang Yu's family, Qi Yunlu and others asked him to leave and ask Li Guangxi what was going on.
In the corridor, Li Guangxi said the tense scene at the railway station in a daze, and Wang Qi and the others were stunned.
Qi Yunlu turned around and looked at the office door a few steps away, and stuck out her tongue: "Damn it! So Boss Zhang is so cruel? He wants to block the railway company's iron river? Is he afraid that Annan Legion will come back and destroy him?"
Wang Yujia shook his head and said, "This? Why is Lao Zhang so anxious? How can he block the iron river? Just choose the election. If others want to cheat, let him do it. God will watch it! We are all Christians, just try our best to get our own votes. Why do we do so cruelly?"
After hearing what Wang Yu's family said, Li Guangxi was furious and pointed at Wang Yu's family and shouted: "Yu family, your glass is only supplied around Longchuan County, not more than us! We are all supplied by the whole country! If the iron river is not allowed to be used, wouldn't we be finished immediately? Besides, you can't watch that Fang Bingsheng do evil, right? The verse in the Bible makes us indulge in sin? Hebrews 1:9 says: 'You love justice and hate sin. So God is your God, who anoints you with joy than anoints your companions.' This verse is often used to mock us for using refugees and lowering wages! Why don't you hate sin now?"
Qi Yunlu laughed and quickly stretched out her arms to stop Li Guangxi, who was furious, while Wang Yu's family shrugged his shoulders, with a helpless expression.
At this time, Zhang Qijie's accountant walked over with two packages on his left and right under his arms, smiled slightly at the corridor, lowered his head to make a greeting, and continued to walk towards the office.
Qi Yunlu was fond of gossip, so she rushed up to pull the accountant and asked, "Old Wang, what are you taking? Why are you doing?"
The accountant, Old Wang, stopped and smiled at the three of them. He saw that he was not aware of the three of them as outsiders. He smiled and said, "The boss asked me to give gifts to my good friend of Longchuan Business Daily, three pieces of cloth on the right for the editor-in-chief and one piece on the left for the reporter. They are all the best and most expensive cloth in our factory. Hehe."
"What are you doing for them? Isn't Lao Zheng also a comrade in the Presbyterian Church?" Wang Yu's eyebrows raised and said.
"Boss Wang, you can't say that. Didn't this be used by others?" The accountant seemed to be familiar with Wang Yu's family, and raised his eyebrows and retorted: "How can I be empty-handed if I ask for help?"
The Wang Yu family asked in confusion: "Have you begged him? This is not right! You are bribery!"
Accountant Lao Wang glared at the sight and wanted to refute. Li Guangxi came over, patted his back, and asked him to leave, saying, "What are you doing to care about Lao Wang? You don't know him! Go quickly!"
After saying that, he turned around and faced Wang Yu's house. The two looked at each other from head to toe, but didn't say anything. Qi Yunlu next to him smiled and said, "Damn it! No way? Do you two debate kings still debate about this?"
"Tsk!" Li Guangxi waved his hand, turned his back to Wang Yu's family, and shouted: "Discuss him? I don't know how this person became the boss? I'm full!"
Wang Yu's family shouted indignantly: "Guangxi, this is wrong. I opened a glass factory. Of course, God gave me money. Whose gift did I give me?"
At this time, the accountant Lao Wang entered the office with a gift. After a while, Zhang Qijie ran out from inside and waved his hand to let the three people around him in the corridor. It seemed that he would talk to everyone if he had something to do.
"Everyone, listen well: this election is of great value, we all have to care about it!" Zhang Qijie said.
Li Guangxi nodded frequently and said, "Okay, okay, you say. Let's listen."
Qi Yunlu asked, "Old Zhang, just say something, let's listen to you."
Wang Yu's family turned their heads and looked at the office door, and said with an unhappy look: "Lao Zhang, why do you give gifts to everyone? Is this in line with the Bible?"
"Can you shut up?" Li Guangxi turned his head and shouted at Wang Yu's family: "Do you know if we have no difference between elections and fighting desperately? We have a bloody battle with the bastards from Beijing!"
Zhang Qijie sighed and looked at Wang Yu's family and said, "Proverbs 18:16 The gifts of people are made for him and lead him to the high-ranking people. 19:6 Many people are willing to give away, and many people ask for his kindness. Those who love to give gifts are for his friends."
"God gave me wisdom, how can I not use it? Of course, gifts are also possible!" Zhang Qijie shouted.
Zhang Qijie skillfully quoted the Bible verses, and the Wang Yu family was speechless, while Li Guangxi looked at the Wang Yu family impatiently and shouted to Zhang Qijie: "Old Zhang, hurry up, what's the matter?"
Zhang Qijie looked at the office door and stretched his head among the three of them and whispered: "If we want to have an election, we must have newspapers to help. Lao Zheng is from our Presbyterian Church, but he is not the core backbone, so we don't know whether his beliefs are pious or not. So we have to increase our investment. I suggest that we add Fan Linhui, and the five of us immediately agreed to a full-page advertisement for the Longchuan Business Daily in a month!"
"The whole version? One month? Five people are the fifth version! How much does it cost?" Li Guangxi screamed.
"Hey hey hey, why are you advertising? Why?" Qi Yunlu shouted in confusion.
Zhang Qijie looked at the two of them and explained: "Longchuan Business Daily is the largest newspaper in the county. I believe that the Democratic Party will definitely attack each other! They are rich and have a fashionable Fang Bingsheng who understands Western learning. That person is not only deceitful, but also has a good literary talent. I heard that he is the new imperial examination candidate in the Song Dynasty! In other words, he may not only buy newspapers, but also write articles on Western learning directly. Regarding Western learning and literary talent, who can compare with the Western learning elites from the capital?! If Longchuan Business Daily does not bleed, maybe they will be bribed by the other party, and we will be miserable! If we can handle local newspapers, it will always be invincible, and there is a fortress to speak and fight back!"
"Bleeding? Didn't you give Editor Zheng a gift?" Qi Yunlu shouted in horror. Looking at the expression, his soul must have covered his bag and rolled on the ground.
"That little money is nothing! The newspapers have to be very affordable!" Zhang Qijie waved: "Newspapers also need to make money, so they value advertising. Besides, we are making full-page advertisements ourselves, promoting our own products and promoting our candidates, which is not a loss."
Li Guangxi asked: "A full version of the article is one month? How much does it cost?"
Zhang Qijie thought for a while and said, "It is normal that the whole version of the article is 30 yuan per month, but I am an old customer. In addition, the five of us will be a wholesale plan. I just asked Editor Zheng, and each person costs twenty yuan."
"Twenty yuan?!!" Qi Yunlu stomped her feet and shouted: "I'm going to spend 80 yuan to death in the election! You're throwing twenty yuan before the election begins? I'm sorry! Are you really going to burn money?"
Wang Yu's family frowned and said, "Why are there any old Fan Fan and Linhui? Isn't he not involved?"
Zhang Qijie explained: "The other party is rich and powerful. Many of us use more power to pull Lao Fan in and show that we are powerful!"
Li Guangxi smiled bitterly and said, "That boy Fan Linhui will definitely not pay. Although he bought a lottery of ten silver dollars a month, he was usually stingy!"
"If he doesn't pay, we will pay for him!" Zhang Qijie said firmly: "He won't refuse this! Just let us tie up the Longchuan Business Daily first! The income of one hundred yuan will be paid, and the entire newspaper will treat us as guests of honor, and it is easy to deal with it if it is posted. Even if Fang Bingsheng wants to buy the Longchuan Business Daily, he is a cross-river, and for the two-month election, the newspaper will carefully consider it. The price he paid will be several times more than our 100 yuan ocean. His money is not infinite, right? If the money is not enough, his methods will always become weaker! Then we have a chance to grab one or two members of parliament!"
Li Guangxi thought for a while and said with a wry smile: "You want to harm yourself for eight hundred times and kill one thousand enemies."
Zhang Qijie spread his hands and said seriously: "Apart from that, do you have any other way to deal with the river dragon in the capital? We can only rely on the advantage of local snakes to fight."
Qi Yunlu sighed and said, "Boss Zhang, I can see that: Are you planning to use money as a bullet to deal with Fang Bingsheng and the Opium House? This...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this...this
Zhang Qijie immediately echoed: "Money is a bullet! But we have workers, churches, newspapers, and reputation, all of them are locals. One bullet is equivalent to two rounds of each other. If you want to be noble in front of others, don't be afraid of spending money! This opportunity is very rare. If you miss this year, who knows what the Democratic Party will become next year? It will definitely be getting stronger and stronger! Maybe all the ministers of the court are party members. How much money do you want to steal food? And our county town holds the fourth pilot election, is this the norm? Just this opportunity! - I remember this one was told by you Xiao Qi."
Qi Yunlu slapped herself with a weak hand and said with a wry smile: "Thank you, Boss Zhang, has a good memory, that's because I'm too much and I regret it."
"Okay, okay! Stop talking! Let's unite and unite, unite and be invincible!" Zhang Qijie reached out to stop Li, Wang, and Qi, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and said, "Pray to God with me:
The Lord is my strength,
My poetry,
It also became my salvation.
This is my god,
I want to praise him,
It's my father's god,
I want to respect him.
The Lord is a warrior,
His name is the Lord.
Lord,
You are a warrior,
Give us mortals your courage and strength,
Let us fight for your name!
Seize glory to glorify you!
You are a warrior!
Bless us to win!!
Amen!”
==========================================
After Zhang Qijie and the others left, Fang Bingsheng walked back and forth like an angry ferocious beast, without saying a word or smashing things, and walked back and forth between the open space between the desk, sofa and coffee table.
This momentum made the stationmaster Lu, who was lying on the desk, feel creepy, because even if he is not a dangerous beast, but a mortal, he can still feel the hatred and murderous aura emitted by the little guy in front of the desk.
"Vice President Fang, don't care about those guys. They are all locals in small counties and they are both polite and heavy." Webmaster Lu smiled and relieved Fang Bingsheng.
"Isn't it light or not?" Fang Bingsheng stopped, looked back at Webmaster Lu with a ferocious look, and asked back with gritted teeth.
Seeing this expression, Stationmaster Lu was young and frightened. He quickly waved his hand to shout at the "eunuch supervisor": "I don't mean that! Mr. Fang, even if he asked them to continue using the railway this time, it would be temporary. We always have a way to deal with them. Don't be too angry. Anyway, the railway is all in your hands. I suggest you report to the headquarters immediately. If there is a public letter, I am willing to obey them completely, so I will embargo them in the name of the exercise!"
Fang Bingsheng was stunned when he heard this, and then a sarcastic laughter came out of his throat. He said, "Do you think I want to use the railway embargo to deal with them? The railway is the company! How could I suppress them with the railway? Who is the loss of money or reputation? Isn't that burning my own home for a hornet's nest? Today's affairs are just a test to test the other party's determination. Unfortunately, they are not afraid of death."
"What? Test? Didn't you really embargo them? I was afraid of death just now. If I was stabbed into the newspaper, how should I explain the situation to the boss Vice President Smith!" Stationmaster Lu wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and was shocked and happy. The shock naturally overestimated Fang Bingsheng's crazyness. Of course, his bonus was not affected.
Fang Bingsheng nodded, gritted his teeth and sneered: "The dog breed Zhang Qijie actually has the courage to ask me what happened three years ago? Humph, I killed thousands of low-level unlucky people three years ago. Now it seems that I will burn the upper-level elites in this county with fire!"
