Chapter 11 Intense

"Principal Committee, the whole thing is like this, as a result, our analysis, Zhuo Fei's move, is actually a test for our military commander, he wants to know the true attitude of our military commander or the government towards the umbrella company." It was late at night, and Dai Li, with a calm face, was in a study, and sitting opposite him was Chiang Kai-shek, chairman of the Nationalist Government.

Dai Li was one of the few people Chiang Kai-shek trusted very much, and if it were not for this, Chiang Kai-shek would not have put Dai Li in full charge of military command, so he was convinced of the situation reported by Dai Li. After pondering for a moment, Chiang Kai-shek suddenly said to Dai Li, "Since our little friend wants to test the military command, you might as well be generous, if he wants an instructor, you can send some to him, ignore the rest, and see how our little friend reacts." ”

"Principal, wouldn't it seem that we are taking that kid too seriously, according to our investigation, that kid is only 20 years old this year. At the age of 20, he is still a hairy boy, and if it weren't for the Western forces that supported him behind him, that kid would not be as good as the most ordinary investigator in our military command. Dai Li's decision just now was not to refute Chiang Kai-shek's decision, it was really because Chiang Kai-shek trusted Dai Li, so Dai Li wanted to persuade Chiang Kai-shek to change his mind without thinking.

Dai Li's dissuasion made Chiang Kai-shek smile and stretched out his hand to the other party, "Yu Nong, you don't want this kind of idea, although this Zhuo Fei is young, when he was in Germany, he was the guest of honor of the German FΓΌhrer Hitler." The Germans had always disliked the Jews, and after the occupation of Austria, the German government continued to pursue a policy of cage against the Jews. But this young Zhuo Fei was able to rescue hundreds of thousands of Austrian Jews from the Germans, which shows that this son is not as useless as you think. ”

Chiang Kai-shek's words made Dai Li sigh secretly, he knew that it was the tens of thousands of rifles that Zhuo Fei gave to the Nationalist Government that worked, and if he hadn't taken the tens of thousands of rifles that the kid gave to the Nationalist Government for free, how could the chairman speak for that kid. Although the loneliness on Dai Li's face was only revealed for a moment, it did not escape Chiang Kai-shek's eyes, knowing that his henchman was not aimed at him, but Chiang Kai-shek's heart still had a trace of fluctuation.

"Yunong, let me ask you, what bad influence do you think this Zhuo Fei can have on the national government?" Chiang Kai-shek stretched out his hand and tapped on the table, and continued to ask Dai Li with a relaxed voice.

"I don't know, I just have a hunch that this person named Zhuo Fei is not a simple person, he has done so many things, I always feel that he is not a simple patriotic act. Besides, patriotism does not seem to have anything to do with helping those Jews, and now there are more than 100,000 Jews on Ruili's side, and the military commander has set up an intelligence station in Wan Town to report that Jews have entered Wan Town one after another in the past few days. I fear that if this continues, the surge in numbers of Jews will cause unnecessary problems for the situation in the Southwest. ”

Dai Li's words were all about his own worries, but Chiang Kai-shek was very unimpressed with his worries, "Yu Nong, I think you are too careful, the place where the Jews gather is in Ruili, do you think Long Yun will sit idly by?" Yunnan is Longyun's territory, I'm afraid he is even more nervous about those Jews than you now, besides, that are some Jews who have left their homeland, and fighting wars and conspiracies are not what Jews are good at. ”

"The Wan Town Intelligence Station has organized several expeditions to Ruili and found that the Jews were working on the so-called hydroelectric power plant, and that they had built a lot of warehouses around Ruili. The supplies that came in from Wan Town were divided into two, one part was transported to Kunming and handed over to the coordination office, and the remaining half was transported to the warehouses built by the Jews. Chiang Kai-shek had already mentioned Long Yun just now, and Dai Li was secretly happy in his heart, Long Yun was known as the king of Yunnan, which was a big trouble for Chiang Kai-shek.

Dai Li first implicitly mentioned some ordinary things in the Ruili Jewish gathering point, and then suddenly mentioned Long Yun as soon as he changed his words, "Huang Youde, the head of the Kunming Station of the Military Command, recently returned to Chongqing to report on his work, and the report mentioned that he had sent someone to follow this Zhuo Fei in Kunming, and it turned out that Zhuo Fei was taken away by Long Yun for a secret meeting. That is, after the secret meeting between Zhuo Fei and Long Yun, Huang Youde was invited to meet with Zhuo Fei, and Zhuo Fei's move to test the military command came from this meeting with Huang Youde. ”

"Zhuo Fei and Long Yun have a secret meeting? When did this happen? After the secret meeting between the two of them, did they behave out of the ordinary? "Long Yun and Zhuo Fei had a secret meeting, and this news made Chiang Kai-shek a little uneasy. He has always wanted to let the government's power penetrate into Yunnan, but unfortunately Long Yun's attitude is very tough, and this Zhuo Fei, who has a mysterious origin, has already had a secret meeting with Long Yun, and Chiang Kai-shek is very worried that the two have reached some kind of agreement in private.

Dai Li quietly paid attention to Chiang Kai-shek's face at this time, and saw that Chiang Kai-shek was contemplating at the moment, Dai Li's heart couldn't help but be secretly happy. Dai Li actually didn't have any opinions about Zhuo Fei, who had never met before, he just hated Zhuo Fei for using such means to test the military command, this feeling made Dai Li feel quite faceless, so he was so active in adding obstacles to Zhuo Fei in front of Chiang Kai-shek and pulling hatred.

Chiang Kai-shek is thinking quickly at the moment, for Chiang Kai-shek, Zhuo Fei is just a patriotic businessman, or a patriotic businessman who can eat a little bit in Europe. Between Dai Li and Zhuo Fei, Chiang Kai-shek will naturally believe Dai Li, but he is very hesitant now, after all, Zhuo Fei is holding the arms that the national army continues to have, and if he doesn't make things clear thoroughly, he will comment on Zhuo Fei in vain, maybe he will lose the arms that are about to arrive.

After pondering for a moment, Chiang Kai-shek finally made a decision, "Yunong, you send a telegram to Zhuo Fei in my name, saying that I invited him to come to Chongqing for a meeting. You can do it right away, and I'd love to see what kind of young man you are afraid of until you become the boss. Chiang Kai-shek's decision made Dai Li's like a pins and needles, he didn't expect Chiang Kai-shek to make such a decision, but in front of Chiang Kai-shek, Dai Li's couldn't continue to stop it, so he only nodded and agreed.

Zhuo Fei, who had already left Ruili and was rushing to Lashio, did not know that in Chongqing, thousands of miles away, there were two powerful people talking about him, in fact, Zhuo Fei would not pay attention to it even if he knew, because all his mind was already focused on the construction of the railway. If you want to join the railway network in Lashio in Burma, you must first obtain the consent of the British government in Burma, and without the consent of the British, let alone build a railway, the umbrella company may not be able to take a single grass from Burma.

Contact the governor and persuade the other party, naturally there are other people in the umbrella company to do it, and all Zhuo Fei has to do is to rush to Lashio to contact and win over the British troops stationed there. The British army stationed a small force of 300 men in Lashio, and the command of this small force was a down-and-out aristocrat named Anton, who had once been among the British upper class and was now only a minor major officer. "Major Anton, this is Mr. Zhuo Fei, the owner of our umbrella company." Sean, a Jewish businessman who came to China in advance to introduce Antun and Zhuo Fei.

Sean is eloquent, and since following the first batch of Jews to Ruili, Angela has been singled out by Angela to specialize in the task of befriending the British commanders along the road. Lashio is the last station on the Burmese railway network, and Antun is the only commander of the British army stationed in Lashio, so Sean is naturally indispensable to make friends with Anton. After going back and forth, under Sean's intentional friendship, the two have become friends who have nothing to say.

An Dun reached out to shake Zhuo Fei out of politeness, and then turned his head to look at Sean with some dissatisfaction, "Sean, I hope you didn't lie to me, is this young Chinese really your boss?" Anton and Sean spoke English, and he didn't know that Zhuo Fei could understand English. Sean, who was asked by Antun, did not immediately answer the other party's inquiry, but looked at Zhuo Fei first, and after seeing Zhuo Fei's gesture, Sean repeated the introduction to Zhuo Fei just now.

"Major Anton, you don't have to ask Mr. Sean anymore, I'm the boss of the umbrella company." Not caring about the distrust in An's eyes, Zhuo Fei smiled and stretched out his right hand to the other party again. "Major Anton, I'm here for a business I want to invite you in. I hope Major Settle is not a racist, otherwise there may be no way to continue this business between us, and I don't want a racist in this Β£100,000 business. ”

The word racism does not have the same lethality as in the current era, but former nobles like An Dun still don't want to be associated with the four words of racism, so when he heard Zhuo Fei mention the word racism, An Dun immediately changed his face and shook his head one after another. "No, I'm certainly not a racist, I was just surprised at your age, when I was your age, I only knew how to ride horses and hunt and go to balls."

After clearing up the misunderstanding, the meeting between Antun and Zhuo Fei went much smoother, and with Sean's intentional compliment, Antun even took Zhuo Fei to visit their military camp. After seeing the many collections in Antun, Zhuo Fei didn't care about putting a golden Buddha with a rich Burmese style back in place, and grinned at Anton, "Major Anton's collection is very good, but with all due respect, none of your collections seem to be of very high value, just like this Buddha statue, it is only a gilded one, but the inside is porcelain." ”

Zhuo Fei's words made An Dun a little uncomfortable, but although the words were ugly, what Zhuo Fei said was true, most of his collections were worthless handicrafts. Giving Sean a look, he opened the suitcase he was carrying and took out an emerald steed from the box and placed it on the table. "This jade jade horse is a small gift from our umbrella company to Major Anton, I hope Major Anton can like it."
