Li Changzhou neither felt that anything he was experiencing was good or bad.
This was his first mission after breaking through the limits, and his goal was the same as that hot September morning when he inexplicably entered the island instance with two girls—to learn more about the game rules while staying alive.
Whether the mission was completed or not was never part of his plan from the beginning (just like he didn't intend to kill many people in the island dungeon).
For the reasons mentioned above, Li Changzhou was more interested in obtaining intelligence from the Spring Emperor than in any specific mission.
As long as he has a subway ticket, there will be missions anytime, but information about the visualization method... he has to consider whether this might be his only opportunity for a long time.
That being said...
"The financial industry in Songcheng is also fragmented, with various warlords vying for control." Yang Qinglan said, holding the document in her hand.
“Yes.” Li Changzhou nodded.
The Minister of Finance, Minister of Justice, Minister of Education, Minister of Agriculture and Forestry, Minister of Commerce and Industry, Minister of Transport, and the new Chief of Police exchanged glances.
In the living room, only Li Changzhou was at the head of the table, while another elegant female voice came from behind the screen.
Is this the legendary empress dowager ruling from behind the curtain?
But what's behind the screen? Why can they listen to Master Li's policies?
"There are hundreds of banks. If your Workers' Bank wants to establish itself and stabilize the economy, it must control the Songcheng Banking Guild," the elegant female voice said again.
“That’s easy,” Li Changzhou said to Liu De. “Go to the biggest banks and catch the spies. Once you catch them, make them give up their positions as chairman of the banking association.”
This is another political tactic besides 'confiscation'—framing someone.
Liu De was about to clasp his hands in agreement.
"Stop your reckless behavior." A clear, gentle female voice admonished with a hint of amusement. "What skills can you possibly develop by acting this way? How are you any different from those privileged children of officials and the wealthy who have connections to ensure they won't fail, or at least won't be humiliated?"
"Do you have another way?" Li Changzhou wasn't angry at all; instead, he smiled.
Yang Qinglan pondered for a moment: "You did a very good job saving Lin's Bank."
The sound of pages turning.
“At this time, the Lin family is not the only one facing a bank run. There are many other entrepreneurs who need help or have something to hide, such as Xu Jikai, the general manager of Industrial Bank.”
“I’ve also seen this person’s information,” Li Changzhou said. “He studied in the UK and the US, majored in economics, and earned a doctoral degree. He single-handedly prevented the Industrial Bank from being acquired by the government.”
"Well, because of his extraordinary education and abilities, he cares a lot about the gentlemanly manners and reputation of foreign countries. He has not taken a concubine yet. You have someone follow him, pretend to be a reporter, and take key evidence. Then deliver it to him personally. The only requirement is that he must do one thing to help you in any future actions in the financial world."
"The idea is good, but what if we can't find any evidence against it?" Li Changzhou wondered.
“It’s easy for poor people to keep their private lives prudent, but it’s extremely difficult for rich people. When they have too much money, they often end up making things worse—this Xu Jikai is definitely not a saint,” Yang Qinglan asserted.
"Luckily, I have no money," Li Changzhou muttered.
The clear, elegant female voice ignored him and continued:
"This is just an example. You can help or threaten banks that are in trouble, but try not to use official power first."
"learn."
"Besides banks, in the real economy... it says here that there are several flour mills that are in trouble because the owners like to gamble, or smoke opium, or are womanizers. You can start buying them."
"Um."
"Don't use your own money to borrow from banks that have submitted to you. The banks can get a stable income, you can get real businesses for free, and those bosses can also get rid of their urgent needs."
"Guanyin is alive today!"
"First, buy the Fenghua Flour Mill on Kangxi Road. The owner of this mill already owes 600,000 yuan at the casino."
"Uh-huh."
"After buying these small flour mills, you can use your money to buy the technicians and managers of those large flour mills, and then use your identity as Master Li to build up the brand, squeeze the living space of the small flour mills, and then take the opportunity to swallow them up."
"Great idea!"
"At this stage, you can compete for the position of chairman of the Songcheng Flour Exchange, but don't take these positions as chairman, bank manager, or flour mill owner. Let those who know what they're doing do them."
"good."
"You must remember, and also instruct your subordinates, that your involvement in finance and industry is not for making money, nor for stirring up trouble to show off your abilities, but for developing industry, ensuring workers have jobs, earning money, and having food, and for maintaining social stability and peace... Are you listening?"
"Yes, yes, cough!" Li Changzhou quickly snapped out of his meditation.
As we all know, half of Li Changzhou's 7 points of intelligence comes from diligence. Without diligence, he would be a mediocre person. Therefore, it is inevitable that he would visualize the "Thunderbolt Diagram" during "class".
Before Yang Qinglan could say anything, he addressed his men: "Did you hear that? Do as Guanyin says."
"...Yes." The people below were still in a state of shock.
"Go ahead," Li Changzhou waved.
"Wait a minute," the clear, elegant female voice spoke again.
"Wait a minute," Li Changzhou, the mouthpiece, called out to the chiefs again.
After a brief silence.
A clear, elegant female voice asked, "So far, how much money have you embezzled in total?"
Li Changzhou wore an amused expression and looked at the Minister of Education: "You go first."
"Sir, I didn't... I embezzled a total of eight million yuan, company shares—" The Minister of Education suddenly covered his mouth.
