At the beginning of the 20th century, many small gatherings and speeches with political aims eventually became a prairie fire. If Tang Yi did not guard against and control them at this time, they would become his strong enemies in the future. Most people are ambitious, it's just a matter of the size of their ambition. Moreover, the leaders of such political groups are often unwilling to be outdone. Although many people shout good slogans, they disregard the interests of the country and the nation for their own ambitions, and even do things that tear the country apart.
Tang Chen did not have much political acumen, nor did he like those who engaged in politics. He had never imagined that such a group would appear in this era. He had not thought that the "Call of Hell" newspaper he founded had already influenced a generation after so many years. Although this influence was not earth-shaking, it had played an extremely strong catalytic role in the emergence of political groups.
Seeing Tang Chen frown, Chen Yuxian couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong? What that person said seems to be something you said before. Is what that person said wrong?"
"It's not that what that person said is wrong, but the appearance of a group like this here is not a good thing for us. This kind of group should be a political group. Once it develops, it will possess extremely terrifying power. Because it is not under our control, they may become our powerful opponents after they develop. Let's go in and take a look." Tang Chen thought for a while and walked into the courtyard with Chen Yuxian.
After Tang Qi entered, he stopped someone and asked, "What are you doing here? Who is that person on the stage?"
"Oh, this is our youth society's gathering six times a month. The person speaking on the stage is Hou Fangyu, a famous talent in Jiangnan. May I know your name, sir?" The person who was questioned by Tang Qi answered Tang Qi while keeping his eyes on Chen Yuxian. Although Chen Yuxian is now in her thirties, she has been well maintained and still looks like a young woman in her prime.
Waiting for Fangyu, Tang Chen couldn't help but glance at Li Xiangjun, who was following behind him. He thought that these two characters from "Peach Blossom Fan" had met each other. It seemed that life is full of encounters. Tang Chen patted the man's shoulder to prevent him from drooling at Chen Yuxian. "Haha, my friend Tang Chen, how long has your Youth Club been established? I wonder who your leader is?"
"Why are you asking this? We are having a proper gathering here to exchange academic experiences. Although it's been more than a year, there hasn't been any leader like you want to ask. Everyone comes when they want to, and anyone who wants to say something on the stage is free to do so. We just gather together for fun." The man became a little wary of Tang Yi's question, and looked at Tang Yi with a pair of eyes through the glass lenses. This kind of glass glasses was only produced in the past two years by Tang Yi's factory. Although the silver frame is expensive, it is an accessory that rich people like to play with, and it is a symbol of status.
"oh,
So, haha, I haven't asked this brother your name yet, brother, let's chat?" Tang Chen looked at the man with a foxy look, smiled, and pointed to a row of benches next to him.
"My surname is Wen, my given name is Tao, and my courtesy name is Xingzhou. I wonder what Mr. Tang does for a living?" After the man reported his name, he did not relax his guard, but still sat down on the same bench as Tang Yu.
"It turns out to be Master Wen. You are a sea merchant. This time you brought some goods to Nanjing for trading. When you passed by here, you heard that the talented young man was talking very interestingly. You couldn't help but stop and listen for a while. What the talented young man said really touched the hearts of these businessmen." Tang Qi casually asked the man what he was talking about. For this kind of spying, there was no need for Tang Qi to do it himself. Tang Qi did this just to get a general idea of the nature of this young man's society.
Seeing Tang Qi sitting down and chatting with that person, Chen Yuxian did not go over to disturb them, but listened to Hou Fangyu's speech on the stage. After Er, Li Xiangjun, and Dong Xiaowan followed in, they stood with Chen Yuxian. The four women standing together were really like spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, each with its own beauty. Although they were all covered with a layer of gauze, it could not hide their peerless elegance. After many people noticed them, they no longer had the heart to listen to what Hou Fangyu said. They all scanned their bodies. If there were a lot of people who looked like bodyguards standing around them, I'm afraid someone would have come up to chat with them long ago.
Hou Fangyu was speaking enthusiastically on the stage when he suddenly realized that no one was paying attention to him. He was very unhappy and turned his eyes to the source of the trouble, but he couldn't help but be stunned. Those women were so beautiful that it would be difficult for any man to remain calm, especially the petite and delicate woman. After Hou Fangyu looked at her, he had an impulse to jump off the stage and walk to her side.
Hou Fangyu shook himself to sober up a little, and looked at the scene again, knowing that he could not continue with his speech. Those people did not want to listen, and he did not have the heart to continue. Beauty is a disaster. Hou Fangyu sighed in his heart, one disaster is already a big deal, but now there are four disasters at once. I wonder which family these girls are from, but each of them is so smart and beautiful, like a fairy.
Hou Fangyu sighed a second time and walked off the stage. Although he wanted to just walk over to them, as a talented scholar from the south of the Yangtze River, even if he was a pervert and rapist, he was a cultured and tasteful pervert and rapist. To get close to these women, he naturally had to use a roundabout way. So Hou Fangyu quickly noticed Tang Chen sitting there. He immediately pulled away his good friend Mao Pijiang and whispered, "Do you know who that person is?"
"I don't know. I just discovered him not long ago and was just about to go and find out. Although anyone can come and go here, we still have to be careful sometimes. That man has a fierce look on his face and pretends to be a scholar." Mao Pijiang shook his head. He is now one of the talented men in Jiangnan. At this time in history, there were originally four talented men in Jiangnan, but Fang Yizhi and Zhen Hui both surrendered to Tang Qi and became Tang Qi's right-hand men. Now one is in Southeast Asia and the other is in the Northeast. The four talented men in Jiangnan in history have now become Hou Fangyu, Mao Pijiang, Zhang Rencheng, and Dong Shu. The latter two are just made up to make up the numbers. They are indeed not as talented as Hou Fangyu and Mao Pijiang, but they have a very high status in the Youth Society.
Hou Fangyu nodded in response to Mao Pijiang's praise: "Why don't we go over and find out where this person came from?"
Mao Jiang hummed lightly and walked with Hou Fangyu towards Tang Qi. Although Mao Pijiang was as famous as Hou Fangyu, his personality was not as active as Hou Fangyu. He often followed Hou Fangyu in many actions.
Tang Qi was casually chatting with Wen Tao and had long noticed Fang Yu looking at him. When Fang Yu came over, he smiled and said, "I guess you are the famous Young Master Hou. Excuse me, Tang Qi, I wonder who this young master is?"
Tang Qi's name in this world is Tang Jing. If he said the name Tang Jing, Hou Fangyu would definitely know who he was. Hou Fangyu had been exposed to "The Shout" when he was very young, and the two words "Tang Jing" had a very deep impression on him. But now Tang Qi reported the name from his previous world, so Hou Fangyu naturally didn't know who Tang Qi was.
"Oh, it's Mr. Tang. This is our good friend Mao Pijiang. We are strangers to Mr. Tang. I wonder where he is from?" Hou Fangyu saw that Tang Chen did not stand up to talk to him, which was a very impolite behavior. However, Hou Fangyu was not angry at this time. He approached Tang Chen with a purpose and temporarily ignored Tang Chen's impolite behavior.
Tang Qi has been in a high position for a long time, and usually he talks to his subordinates. Those subordinates stand in front of Tang Qi, while Tang Qi usually sits. This is a very normal thing. Over time, Tang Qi has formed a habit. Besides, Tang Qi has no intention of recruiting Hou Fangyu and others, so naturally he can't muster that kind of enthusiasm for recruiting talents. Even if he knows that his behavior is very rude, Tang Qi will not feel too uncomfortable, not to mention that he has no good feelings for Hou Fangyu.
Tang Chen didn't know much about Hou Fangzai in history, but these few things made Tang Chen think that Hou Fangyu was just a spineless little coward. And although Mao Pijiang next to him was a better person than Hou Fangyu, he was not much better either. If they had not had a so-called love relationship with Li Xiangjun and Dong Xiaowan, they would not have such a great reputation in history. They were just little cowards who used women to get to the top.
Tang Yu patted the empty seat beside him and said, "Come sit down and chat. I'm from Changzhou and a businessman. I travel all over the world every year. It's rare that I have some free time, so I just walk around the streets. I didn't expect to see such an interesting place like yours. It must be your speech, Master Hou, that attracted me here."
Hou Fangyu watched Tang Qi's natural and casual movements, his eyes flickering for a moment. He sat down thoughtfully, following Tang Qi's instructions and said with a smile, "Haha, then Mr. Tang is probably the capitalist mentioned in the Shout. I wonder if Mr. Tang has ever read the Shout. It tells a lot about the businessmen in your business. As a successful businessman, it would be a shame if Mr. Tang didn't read the Shout. Judging from Mr. Tang's attire and demeanor, he must be a very successful capitalist."
