Chen Jie and Jiang Weiguo's previous small actions did not escape Zhuo Fei's eyes, seeing that Jiang Weiguo was silent, Zhuo Fei was not in a hurry, but just took a cigarette and handed it to the two. Jiang Weiguo didn't speak, and Chen Jie opened his mouth to ask Zhuo Fei, "Boss Zhuo, these Jews are not us Chinese after all, as the old saying goes, if you are not of my race, your heart will be different." I think it would not be possible to set aside a county seat to house these Jews, even if it were to be placed in a European country. ”

Zhuo Fei just smiled but didn't answer Chen Jie's words, after lighting the cigarette in his mouth, Zhuo Fei took out a piece of the map and spread it out, pointed to a place on the map and said to Jiang Weiguo and Chen Jie, "Second son, Ambassador Chen, how do you two look here?" As I said, I don't want any prosperous places, even barren mountains and mountains. This place is full of mountains and jungles, and as long as the roads are blocked, I think even if these Jews have a different heart, I am afraid that they will not be able to make any waves. ”

Jiang Weiguo and Chen Jie couldn't help but look at the place where Zhuo Fei was pointing, and when the two of them saw clearly where Zhuo Fei was pointing, Jiang Weiguo suddenly grinned. The place Zhuo Fei was looking for on the map was none other than Ruili, which borders Myanmar on three sides on the southwestern border, and is located in the southwest of Dehong Dai Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province, adjacent to Myanmar on three sides: northwest, southwest and southeast. It is located in the southward extension of the remaining veins of Gaoligong Mountain in the Hengduan Mountains, and the terrain is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. It is 752 kilometers away from Kunming, the provincial capital, and 103 kilometers away from Mangshi, the state capital.

Jiang Weiguo didn't expect that the place Zhuo Fei pointed to would be Ruili, Xu saw that Jiang Weiguo wanted to refuse, so Zhuo Fei preemptively said, "I know that the Nationalist Government is building a highway from Kunming to Yangon, and there are many road and bridge experts among these Jews in the camp, and at the same time, I will also purchase a batch of construction machinery from Germany and the United States." As long as the Nationalist Government agrees to set aside a piece of land in the southwest to house these Jews, I will persuade the Jews to help the Nationalist Government widen and strengthen the highway between Yunnan and Burma without costing the Nationalist Government a penny. ”

Zhuo Fei's words couldn't help but Jiang Weiguo and Chen Jie subconsciously glanced at each other, Long Yun requisitioned more than 200,000 people of all ethnic groups in Yunnan in order to build this highway between Yunnan and Myanmar. Because of the lack of machinery, the people involved in the construction of the road almost carried horses on their backs, and most of them used this ant-like method to build the road on the 959.4-kilometer-long section. Due to the urgency of the construction task, the Nationalist Government put forward the principle of "seeking the passage of the Yunnan-Burma Highway first, and then seeking improvement", and strictly ordered that all the counties along the highway must start construction before the end of 1937, and build a simple highway that could barely be opened to traffic within three months.

The Yunnan-Burma Highway now has a rough scale, but due to the simplicity of road construction tools, there are many sections of the highway that often have landslides and landslides. Widening the highway is imminent, otherwise this highway can only be used as a one-way street, Zhuo Fei's proposal made Jiang Weiguo see the solution to the problem, if you use the large road construction machinery of European countries, it is not difficult to widen and strengthen the side of the road.

The struggle in Jiang Weiguo and Chen Jie's eyes made Zhuo Fei laugh secretly, "Second son, I'm not bragging about this matter, in fact, the American fleet that arrived in Hong Kong two days later carried a batch of construction machinery. With a large number of Jewish drivers and engineers, and enough fuel to procure locally in Burma, it was not difficult to widen the road with this batch of construction machinery, and I could even get a batch of weapons ashore in Yangon and follow the road construction team all the way north to Kunman. ”

Zhuo Fei's words finally crushed the last insistence in Jiang Weiguo's heart, and after exchanging secret glances with Chen Jie, Jiang Weiguo immediately borrowed the radio station in the containment point from Zhuo Fei. Zhuo Fei knew that Jiang Weiguo was just going to contact China, so he happily took Jiang Weiguo and several of his entourage to the telecommunications room in the containment point, leaving the entire telecommunications room to Jiang Weiguo and his entourage, and Zhuo Fei accompanied Chen Jie and others to chat and smoke outside the telecommunications room.

The Yunnan-Burma Highway built by Long Yun will pass through Ruili, and the Wan Town, which belongs to Ruili, will be the last stop of this road abroad, Zhuo Fei did not know whether Chiang Kai-shek would agree to settle the Jews in Ruili, because of this Yunnan-Burma Highway, the importance of Ruili is self-evident. Sure enough, just as Zhuo Fei was worried, it was a few hours before Jiang Weiguo, who had telegraphed with China, walked out of the telecommunications room, and the news he brought to Zhuo Fei was not good.

"Brother Zhuo, I have already argued for you, but there are many objections within the government, some people say that outsiders cannot be allowed to threaten the Yunnan-Burma Highway." When Jiang Weiguo saw Zhuo Fei again, his face showed embarrassment, and there was some unwillingness and anger between his words. "Someone suggested that these Jews be placed in Liangshan, and said that Liangshan is big enough, and if Brother Zhuo is willing, it is okay to go north to Ganzi."

The news brought by Jiang Weiguo made Zhuo Fei laugh instead, "Second son, if this is not the case, you will contact the government once." Tell them that on top of the 100,000 Mauser rifles, I will support 50,000 Mauser rifles and 200 Czech light machine guns in China. I will exchange these things for a piece of land for these Jews to live in for five years, and after five years, I will let these Jews leave China, and all the things that the Jews have built will be owned by China. ”

With 150,000 Mauser rifles and 200 Czech light machine guns, not to mention whether anyone will be willing to sell these things to the Nationalist Government, or if there are people who are willing to sell arms of this scale to the Nationalist Government, I am afraid that the Nationalist Government will not be able to come up with this money now. Now Zhuo Fei is willing to send this batch of arms to the Nationalist Government for nothing, just to exchange a piece of land for these Jews that can accommodate five years, if it is exchanged for Jiang Weiguo to make a decision on this matter, I am afraid that he will agree to it early in the morning.

With deep dissatisfaction with some people in the national government, Jiang Weiguo reluctantly went to the telecommunications room, half an hour later, Jiang Weiguo finally brought Zhuo Fei a piece of news that could not be regarded as flattering, the Nationalist Government reluctantly agreed to Zhuo Fei's request, but the Nationalist Government asked Zhuo Fei to go to Chongqing in person to discuss the matter. "Second son, it's impossible for me to go to Chongqing, at least not now. The SS and the Gestapo only recognized me. If I had left the Germans, they would have thought that I had given up on this plan, and that they would have restricted the departure of the Jews, and that without the Jews as a cover, the arms would not have been able to be brought back to the country. ”

There are always priorities in things, and Jiang Weiguo also knows that Zhuo Fei will not lie about this matter, but it is his father's intention to ask Zhuo Fei to go to Chongqing, and Jiang Weiguo really does not dare to disobey his father's orders. "In this case, I will arrange for someone close to me to fly to Chongqing to meet the chairman of the committee and report the whole plan to the chairman in person. It is impossible for me to leave Germany in the near future, or I will lose Hitler's trust in me, and the price is too great for me to afford. ”

Zhuo Fei had already said it to such an extent, Jiang Weiguo naturally didn't want to emphasize the chairman's order to Zhuo Fei, so he had to go to the telecommunications room again to argue with Chongqing, until night fell, and the exhausted Jiang Weiguo came out of the telecommunications room with his entourage. "Chongqing has agreed to your request, Brother Zhuo, but I still have to remind you that once the matter here is almost over, you still have to fly to Chongqing as soon as possible, and the chairman is looking forward to meeting you."

Zhuo Fei did not express his disdain for Jiang Weiguo's words just now, but just left Jiang Weiguo and them to stay in the detention center for one night, and early the next morning, Zhuo Fei personally sent Jiang Weiguo and others to the SS military airport. Jiang Weiguo once again saw the rapport between Zhuo Fei and the local SS, and when he said goodbye to Zhuo Fei, he didn't know whether it was a show or really sympathizing with the Jews in the camp. Before Jiang Weiguo got on the plane, he specially handed Zhuo Fei a check for 100,000 marks, saying that it was donated to the Jews in the shelter.

"Boss, Miss Vivien has sent a telegram, and another group of Polish Jews have asked to go to China, Miss Vivien can't make up her mind and wants to ask the boss what you mean." Zhuo Fei, who had sent Jiang Weiguo away, had just returned to the containment point when he received a telegram from Vivian from Bowman. The Jews were not only natural financiers, but also a war-like people, and the fall of Czechoslovakia benefited the Poles, but the Jews in Poland saw the imminent advance of war.

The plight of the Austrian Jews was very sympathetic to the Jews in the rest of Europe, but at the same time, their lives began to turn bad, and all European countries saw the wealth that Hitler had stolen from the Jews. Vivian, who carried out the top-secret plan, had already set her sights on Jews in other countries, and Poland was Vivian's first stop, killing and recruiting skilled workers, Vivian also spread the news of the imminent war among Polish Jews, which made the idea of trying to get a Chinese visa to leave Europe among Polish Jews.

"Call Vivien back, suspend activities in Poland, and more than 100,000 Jews from Austria must be transferred out by the end of July." Now that there is only half a month left before July, Zhuo Fei only gave Vivian a month and a half, because he didn't want Vivian to waste time by going to Poland to stir up trouble before Germany launched a war against Poland.

Vivien and Angela were not with him, and Huffman was far away in Austria to help He Fengshan, but who should be sent to Chongqing to negotiate with the Nationalist government about the resettlement of Jews? Before dinner, Zhuo Fei was thinking about this problem, and without Hansen, the butler who helped him control the whole situation, Zhuo Fei once again felt that there were too few available people around him.
