> The Justice Recap
Cheng Yizhi asked Wu Lizi to send people to investigate the profitability of each merchant in Wande Garden. He took Wu Lizi to a restaurant to find Boss Yan of the Grand Theater, suggesting that he open tomorrow. Wu Lizi also chimed in to help. However, the Grand Theater was not yet fully completed. Cheng Yizhi claimed to have found a copy of the latest movie and promised to let Boss Yan premiere it at the Grand Theater.
Wu Lizi even suggested that ladies be admitted for free, which Boss Yan naturally gladly accepted. Cheng Yizhi took Wu Lizi to visit various merchant bosses, suggesting that everyone unite to hold a grand opening promotion. He proposed that Rebang Bank provide manpower and resources to help them and offer them rent discounts. Boss Yang suspected that Cheng Yizhi was involved in a lawsuit, which was why he was so Urgent to organize a promotional event.
Leizi had approached him beforehand, asking him to unite the merchants against Cheng Yizhi. Cheng Yizhi requested Boss Yang's support to provide a stable investment environment for all merchants. Boss Yang knew Leizi's character and promised to rally the other merchant bosses to support Cheng Yizhi. Wu Lizi and Cheng Yizhi were busy all night, finally settling agreements with all the merchant bosses. It was already bright morning, and both of them were exhausted.
Wu Lizi wanted to lean on Cheng Yizhi's shoulder for a sleep. Cheng Yizhi suddenly remembered something. He immediately drove to buy ribbons and balloons. The two of them squatted by the roadside blowing up balloons. Cheng Yizhi tied the balloons to the car and took Wu Lizi to Wande Garden to attend the opening ceremony. Today was the opening day of Wande Garden. Customers came in an endless stream, and everything was orderly.
Cheng Yizhi felt very pleased to see the promotion in the newspaper. Wu Lizi was extremely hungry, so Cheng Yizhi took out a piece of candy to satisfy her hunger. Huang Ruhong sent people to plant explosives at Rebang Bank, intending to detonate the building tomorrow. Cheng Yizhi and Wu Lizi returned to Rebang Bank. They were fully prepared, but a malicious bank run still occurred.
Cheng Yizhi instructed his employees to work separately with large depositors who came to withdraw funds. Huang Ruhong and Leizi brought people to the station to pick up Demi, the new consul of the French Concession. Students swarmed the station, strongly demanding that Huang Ruhong return Wande Garden. Leizi quickly escorted Demi's family away from the station. Cheng Yizhi heard the news and rushed to the station afterward.
French Consul General Homer came directly to Huang Ruhong to demand an explanation. Huang Ruhong repeatedly assured him that he would handle the matter properly. He sent Leizi to investigate the students who led the troublemaking. Leizi admitted his fault to Huang Ruhong. Huang Ruhong's conspiracy was completely thwarted. Wu Lizi and Cheng Yizhi drank and chatted happily, celebrating their hard-won victory together. Director Zhao rushed to Cheng Yizhi to report on the issues at Shenqin Cotton Mill.
Foreign firms had successively canceled their orders for gauze, resulting in a backlog of two thousand tons of gauze in the warehouse. Director Zhao wanted to sell them to old customers at an 80% discount, but they were unwilling to buy. Cheng Yizhi analyzed that this was due to the promulgation of the U. S. Silver Act and advised Director Zhao to close the third and fourth branch factories.
He also promised him that he could temporarily postpone the repayment of the Rebang Bank loan. Cheng Yizhi went to Mr. Chen for help, asking him to temporarily postpone Director Zhao's loan. Mr. Chen readily agreed and formally introduced his brother-in-law, Commander Pan, to Cheng Yizhi. Dai Ailing's elder sister and second sister both came over to greet Cheng Yizhi. Dai Ailing pretended in front of them that she was dating Cheng Yizhi every day.
Cheng Yizhi echoed her words from the side. Shimazaki Tadashi put on the western-style clothes Bell made for him and mustered up the courage to confess his feelings to Bell. Customers at the western-style clothes shop were becoming fewer, and Bell could not make ends meet. She reluctantly dismissed all four of her female apprentices. They were as close as sisters to Bell and were reluctant to leave. Bell was helpless and could only give each of them severance pay.
Bell watched as her apprentices left one by one, and she wept sorrowfully. Wu Lizi came to see Bell and gently advised her. Bell spoke of her relationship with Shimazaki Tadashi that ended without progress, and finally sobbed loudly while hugging Wu Lizi. Cheng Yizhi sought help from Shimazaki Tadashi. Shimazaki Tadashi helped promote a batch of gauze, and Director Zhao temporarily overcame the crisis. Cheng Yizhi expressed his gratitude to Shimazaki Tadashi.
Shimazaki Tadashi was powerless against the dumping practices of Japanese textile mills; he could only do his best. Wu Lizi revealed Bell's and Shimazaki Tadashi's situation to Cheng Yizhi, hoping to bring them together. Cheng Yizhi promised to give it good consideration. Bell specifically came to the restaurant where Shimazaki Tadashi had lunch. Shimazaki Tadashi arrived on time.
He claimed that he had not been doing well lately, watching helplessly as Japan invaded China, and he was powerless to change it. Shimazaki Tadashi wanted to be with Bell, but he couldn't shake off his identity as a Japanese person. Cheng Yizhi came to see Bell and advised her to choose carefully regarding her relationship with Shimazaki Tadashi. Bell asked Cheng Yizhi in return how he would choose between love and external conditions. Cheng Yizhi unhesitatingly chose love. Wu Lizi heard everything clearly from outside the door.
