"I hope you can keep your word."

After Wei Ruchuan said this, he walked to the other side.

On January 1932, 1, a large army arrived in Shanghai.

"boom--"

With a gunshot, the enemy's navy, army and air force have successfully landed, wanting to take Shanghai in one fell swoop in a short period of time.

For a time, Shanghai was engulfed in war and the people were displaced.

At this time, Shen Tunan was gathering other bank executives to discuss matters together.

"Today I have two requests for your help. First, I hope that our silver industry association here can suspend business indefinitely to protest against the Japanese."

Shen Tunan looked at the people around him with a serious expression, "Second, the military pay for the 19th Route Army must be raised."

The people sitting next to Shen Tunan had different expressions. They wanted them to spit out the money they had eaten? They obviously had no such intention.

Several people exchanged glances, and finally Yu Shiqing spoke.

"Tunan, these two things are difficult to handle. Although we have already started a war with the enemy, the Japanese have already informed the consulate and they have promised not to spread the war to the concession. So, I don't think we need to waste too many resources on others for this matter."

"Mr. Yu, isn't the 19th Route Army also the armed force of our Nationalist government? Didn't they also go to the war to protect our people? In the face of national affairs, you and the others are only weighing the pros and cons?"

Shen Tunan was a little emotional. It was fine that these people were making money on a normal day, but now that the country was united in resisting foreign enemies, they still had an attitude of indifference and indifference. It was really chilling.

Yu Shiqing comforted him and said earnestly, "Tunan, don't get too excited. Sit down and talk slowly. It's not that we don't want to go on strike, but if we do this, won't it make things difficult for the people in the Ministry of Industry and Commerce?"

Shen Tunan calmed down a bit, and he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart. "The country is in crisis, and as Chinese people, we should love our country first."

At this time, another senior executive beside Yu Shiqing said, "Brother Tunan, we are naturally patriotic and always keep our country in our hearts. But at this time, if we stop business and stop settlement, I am afraid that not only will we suffer a lot of losses, but they will not agree."

Shen Tunan knew that it was difficult to get these profit-oriented people to give up their interests, but there would be no turning point until they knew the seriousness of the matter.

“At this time, we must unite as one and close our business so that those people can see our persistence.

You all have foreign investment backgrounds. If you choose to stand aside and watch, it will make the Japanese side feel that the powers of other countries are in cahoots with them.

Only if you close down your business will those people see our determination and see which side justice will stand on. "

After listening to this, Yu Shiqing thought for a moment and said, "In fact, what Tunan said makes sense. If we lose our country, even if our family is safe, our future life will not be so comfortable."

The other senior executives looked strange. Hadn’t they agreed beforehand that they would not be taken advantage of?

Soon, Yu Shiqing spoke earnestly, "But we can't continue the strike indefinitely. This is definitely not okay."

"Then three days. We must at least let them see our attitude!"

Shen Tunan chose to make concessions. As long as everyone could act in unison, the duration of the action could be discussed.
