After the agreement was signed, Zheng Yi shifted all his energy to the installation and commissioning of new equipment in the arsenal and the production of imitation Czech light machine guns, and spent four consecutive days in the design room and two newly completed large-scale processing workshops, working hard with engineers and senior technicians from European countries hired with high salaries, and finally completed the equipment commissioning of the two new workshops on the afternoon of the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, and manufactured two sample guns with excellent performance and beautiful appearance.

Stephen. Originally from Birmingham, England, Branson has 12 years of experience in mechanical design and materials science, and is now not only the chief engineer of Far East Maschinenfabrik, but also Zheng Yi's most trusted technical director, Zheng Yi's two automatic rifles and imitation Czech light machine gun projects, both led by his five-member team.

This team made two prototypes of automatic rifles for Zheng Yi a month ago, worked out the production process and completed the installation and commissioning of the production equipment, and then completed the technical optimization of the Czech light machine gun on the basis of the Czech light machine gun production patent and related design purchased by Zheng Yi, and manufactured the new light machine gun that Zheng Yi needed.

In order to show his respect and gratitude to the Branson team, Zheng Yi named this excellent weapon imitated from the Czech ZB26 "Branson M1930 light machine gun".

Zheng Yi's move was unanimously approved by the members of the technical team, which made Branson full of excitement and gratitude to the generous Zheng Yi, and then took the initiative to take over the task of workshop management and mass production without Zheng Yi doing it himself.

……

February 21, 1929, the twelfth day of the first lunar month, 4:50 p.m.

The 3,500-ton British passenger liner slowly approached the Central Pier amid the melodious whistle.

The British Royal Navy Band, dressed in red jackets and black trousers, played a grand welcome song, and the welcoming procession, composed of the three Zheng fathers and sons, more than 10 Chinese and foreign technicians from the Far East Machinery Manufacturing Company, and 50 security guards, stood neatly and solemnly, smiling and looking up at the members of the Nanjing Government's military technical inspection group standing on the side of the ship and waving frequently.

Inspector William, the tall, well-uniformed boss of the Hong Kong Police Force, hurriedly came to cheer, standing beside Zheng Lanting with a smile on his face and arrogance, and immediately squeezed Zheng Yi to the side.

The passenger ship slowly docked.

The members of the Nanjing Government's military technical inspection delegation, who had received preferential treatment, were the first to disembark amid the melodious music, and more than 50 members wore top hats and black tweed coats.

Yu Feipeng, who was walking in front, smiled brightly, and saw that Zheng Lanting, the world friend, took the lead to catch up, and hurriedly stepped down the gangway at a faster pace, shouting "Brother Lanting" in his mouth, and at the same time, he stretched out his hands early and shook hands with Zheng Lanting who was smiling for a long time.

After the two warmly greeted each other, they introduced the important people around them one by one.

The people behind Yu Feipeng saw that the welcome scene was so grand and grand, and there were so many golden-haired and blue-eyed foreign friends smiling, and they were all shocked and flattered.

Zheng Yi honestly stood with his eldest brother Zheng Heng, and when he saw Yu Feipeng, who was full of emotion, come to stand in front of him, he couldn't help but have a sour nose, stepped forward, gave Yu Feipeng a warm hug, and took the opportunity to whisper in his ear: "Uncle Shi, I'm sorry." ”

Yu Feipeng's eyes were also red, and he patted Zheng Yi's back hard, and it took a while before they separated from each other, and he carefully looked at Zheng Yi, who had a mustache, and sighed frequently: "Well, I'm thinner, but I'm also much more mature, very good!" It's good to come back, and I don't have to worry about it day and night. ”

Zheng Yi hung his head and nodded frequently, very numbly shaking hands with the dignitaries who came behind Yu Feipeng one by one, until his brother Zhou Junruo took the initiative to hug him, he raised his head and greeted him with a smile.

Zhou Junruo was very excited, put down the big suitcase and introduced his old acquaintance Yang Jicheng to Zheng Yi, and then pulled a young man of medium stature in front of Zheng Yi and solemnly recommended: "Brother Xian, this is Dai Li, Dai Yunong, from the principal's chamberlain, and we are also a handsome man from our Whampoa Military Academy." ”

Zheng Yi's heart suddenly contracted twice, and he looked at Dai Li, who was smiling and behaving calmly, for a while, and then held Dai Li's outstretched hand: "Welcome Brother Yunong!" ”

The welcoming scene was unusually warm, and many words hidden in the heart were obviously impossible to tell each other on such an occasion, and the delegation of more than 50 people soon boarded the more than ten luxury cars neatly arranged above the pier and drove to the high-end hotel near the governor's palace.

Zhou Junruo, Yang Jicheng and Dai Li were warmly invited to Zheng Yi's car, followed behind the convoy, and walked slowly.

Xu Maofu, who temporarily acted as a driver, looked at the backseat guests through the rearview mirror in the car from time to time, Zheng Yi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, kept turning sideways, and kept answering the curious inquiries of Zhou Junruo and Yang Jicheng.

After entering the high-end hotel run by the British, the members of the delegation were taken to their rooms by attentive waiters.

Surrounded by a group of Chinese and foreign entourage, Zheng Lanting and William took the lead in going to the restaurant on the second floor to rest for a short time, and then attended the welcome banquet together.

Zheng Yi and Xu Maofu, who don't like to join in the fun, still stay in the corner of the hall on the first floor, smoking and talking in a low voice.

"You used to know that Dai Li, who was called Dai Li?" Xu Maofu asked.

Zheng Yi was extremely emotional in his heart, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he thought for a while before he whispered: "I have heard of this person, his identity is by no means just Lao Jiang's attendant officer, if I remember correctly, the Investigation Department of the Central Party Department of the Kuomintang Party is likely to have been renamed the Investigation Department, and this Dai Li is the person from the Investigation Department." ”

Xu Maofu was taken aback, his eyes widened and said, "So, the surname Dai is a secret agent?" ”

Zheng Yi nodded heavily: "He is indeed a secret agent, and his identity is not low, it is estimated that at this time it should be at the level of section chief, mainly responsible for intelligence and special operations, from July to August last year, many of our party's organs and traffic stations in Shanghai were destroyed, and it is estimated that this person also has a share of credit." ”

"Alas...... What I am most concerned about now is why this person is in the military technical inspection team, and what exactly does he want to do in Hong Kong? ”

Xu Maofu was silent for a moment, pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Could it be that it is for you?" ”

"There is a possibility, but it cannot be ruled out that there are other reasons...... As you know, the Kuomintang secret service has an intelligence station in Hong Kong, but since the surname Yuan was killed by the second uncle, we have not had a chance to follow this line at all, and perhaps the surname Dai has something to do with it. ”

Zheng Yi said with pity.

Xu Maofu seemed to understand: "Otherwise, let me come, quietly follow the surname Dai for a few days, and see if I can find anything." ”

"No, you can't come forward, he already recognizes you, let's hand it over to the second uncle, and then transfer two people from the special service team of the security team to secretly monitor the surname Dai, if you are lucky, you may be able to find out the deeply hidden Kuomintang intelligence station." Zheng Yi spoke his opinion.

Xu Maofu nodded suddenly: "I'll go back and explain to the second uncle." ”

Zheng Yi pressed him: "Don't worry, start tomorrow, the newcomer surnamed Dai will not act so quickly, tonight we will gather people to discuss it well, and start secretly monitoring tomorrow morning." ”

"The surname Dai himself is a good hand at intelligence, and his vigilance must be very high...... This is definitely a technical job, and there can be no mistakes, let alone surprise! ”

"At present, it seems that the group of brothers who are undergoing training is very incompetent, and we still have to rely on the second uncle to go out in person, and strive to give the second uncle a chance to recognize people early tomorrow morning, and then we can start it."

"Then wait, we'll get back in the evening."

Xu Maofu knew the importance of the matter and did not dare to be reckless.
