Chapter 118: The Day Before the Action (3)
"Wen Kai is not shocked every time, and he is endless." Carl said with a greasy mouth.
"What I'm saying is the truth, otherwise how could Suzhou sell it to Counselor Carl early? How can Counselor Karl's dress be embedded in the eyes of Suzhou people, maybe Suzhou will be able to produce silk suits next year, and the upgrading of the industry is based on large circulation and consumption. β
"Wen Kai, why are you becoming more and more like an economist? We are here to eat, not to listen to your princess selling melons and boasting. Carrotta interrupted his impromptu rambling just in time.
The staff officer walked to Hu Wenkai's side excitedly, leaned over and whispered in his ear, Hu Wenkai immediately brightened and nodded, signaling the staff officer to go back to the office and continue to be on duty.
Dewey was taken aback, and it seemed that Zhejiang's action was going well, otherwise Hu Wenkai would not have been so happy, and Nima's speed would have been too fast.
"Welcome to Tianxing Town, take this toast first." Hu Wenkai stood up and raised his glass.
"Hu Wenkai has been engaged in it for a long time, and your banquet has just started." Carl took the hot hand towel that the guy handed him and wiped his mouth.
"Just warm up. Let's take this cup together. Hu Wenkai raised his head and drank the Moutai in the cup.
As soon as the wine glass was put down, Wang Changrong and Pan Meiqin raised their glasses to toast: "Wen Kai and Carrotta thank you for making us happen, and your sister-in-law Meiqin and I toast you." β
"Done! Carrotta and the two of us drank the wine together. He grabbed Carrotta's hand and said.
After drinking, Hu Wenkai didn't want to let go of Wang Changrong: "Brother Changrong, I remember that last time I went to Suzhou with Carrotta, I could bring you gifts, and this time you ......" looked at Wang Changrong halfway through.
Wang Changrong's face turned red: "Hu Wenkai, you are endless, you have to ask for bribes every time you eat." β
On the table, except for Du Zijuan and Pan Meiqin, who didn't know Hu Wenkai's vices, the rest knew. laughed like crazy on the table, and Carotta was also made by Hu Wenkai to stare at him fiercely.
But Pan Meiqin didn't care, stood up, took out a book wrapped in silk cloth from Kun's bag, and handed it to Hu Wenkai.
"What my father entrusted me to bring to Wen Kai is a copy of Wang Yangming's authentic handwriting."
Hu Wenkai thought that this was right, took Wang Yangming's true handwriting with both hands and said: "Thank you, sister-in-law Meiqin, or sister-in-law Meiqin is from a big family, unlike Wang Changrong, who doesn't know etiquette." β
Wang Changrong was so angry, and blue veins appeared on his face. Pan Meiqin then Hu Wenkai said: "My father said that the glory of the ancestors is history, and the history of being a slave to the Manchurians has nothing to show off, Evergreen is a real local governor, and now the country is in transition, and our Pan family wholeheartedly follows Boss Hu to do something beneficial to the country and the people." β
At this time, Wang Changrong knew that Hu Wenkai was wrong, and Hu Wenkai had always thought about his status in the Pan family.
"Meiqin's sister-in-law is serious, I heard Changrong say that you are going to find a job in the company?" Since the people are soft, and Wang Changrong is still sandwiched between them, the sweet dates that should be given still have to be given.
"Well, I haven't found a suitable job at home for a long time after graduation."
"What do you think of Far Eastern University's school affairs?"
"Wen Kaicheng, I agreed for Meiqin." Wang Changrong is the chargΓ© d'affaires who is not ashamed.
They are not idle drinking Dewey and Carl here, Sun Daming's wine barrel is very awkward on this wine table, and he doesn't dare to let go of drinking if he wants to drink, if he doesn't drink it, he is afraid that the boss's banquet will be cold.
"Boss, I'll toast you." Du Zijuan stood up and held up the wine in his hand.
"It doesn't matter if you sit down and drink and stand up. Carrotta is also with you, you can't toast me and leave my wife aside, but you are clever to shoot two birds. Hu Wenkai pulled Carrota because he was afraid that Carrotta would taste it.
"Hu Wenkai, you are the birdman." Carrotta immediately noticed his speech problem.
Adele came out of her mouth with a French sentence from the laughter: Les oiseaux tombent amoureux.
"Inexplicablement" Du Zijuan casually countered.
"Boss, I have a request, too."
"But it doesn't hurt to say"
"I have applied to join the Fujin Party, can I enter the Party School for further study?"
"Your situation is special, is that okay? While working as a translator at Far Eastern University, he studied at the party school. "Knowing that she can speak French makes it easy for her to go to the party school is a joke.
Just after drinking, Adele and Du Zijuan talked in French across the table. Only Dewey, Adele and Hu Wenkai at the table knew French, and Du Zijuan didn't expect his heart to be revealed like this.
"Not interested in Hu Wenkai?"
"It's not, I just don't want to be small."
"There are very few people like Hu Wenkai in China now."
"Miss Adele is indeed like this, it is impossible to say that she is not moved, everything must be sacrificed. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to work together? In the end, you can't even make friends. β
The two chattered non-stop, and Dewey and Hu Wenkai looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Naturally, I had to meet Carl in the evening, and Karl's affairs were more tricky, and American chemical companies continued to buy large quantities of acid-resistant special stainless steel, which was only sold by Xingye Company because the market demand was small, the price was extremely high, and the quantity was small.
Hu Wenkai knows that the chemical industry has not developed to a certain extent and there is little demand for this kind of steel, and the company has built a three-ton small steelmaking furnace for production in order to expand the refinery and chemical enterprises.
Hu Wenkai explained the general situation, and there was really no way to meet the demand for thousands of tons. It is impossible for a company to build a large steelmaking furnace for a deal.
Carl retreated and wanted to buy technology, Hu Wenkai shook his hand, don't even think that the company can't sell any technology, it depends on technology to eat.
In the end, Hu Wenkai came up with an idea to help the other party build a steelmaking furnace, but the other party needed to provide a complete set of oil refining equipment with an annual output of 300,000 tons at 80% of the cost price and pay Carl 5% of the commission.
Carl patted his chest and made sure that the company was an affiliate of the public utility holding company, and the acid-resistant special stainless steel was a hurdle that they could not bypass.
Hu Wenkai asked him and Chen Yongcheng to sign a contract, and the equipment was shipped in August, and 2,000 tons of special stainless steel were shipped to San Francisco in the United States on time in September.
Karl's second task was to purchase an AIII.-62NP air-cooled single-row star-shaped 9-cylinder piston engine and 100 sets of II.9A 4-blade hydraulic variable pitch propellers.
Chen Yongcheng, a profiteer, raised the price by at least 15%, which is simply a seller's market, and no one can produce it except for the Tianfen Engine Factory.
Scattered and scattered orders for 100,000 goods, and the normal utility holding company is associated with at least dozens of large enterprises. Carl, this guy has made at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in less than a year. But in the end, this guy made a suggestion that Hu Wenkai paid attention to.
China has continued from the Qing Dynasty to the present day, and bandits and roving crimes remain high, and the Shanghai-Suzhou Highway should be patrolled 24 hours a day by armed vehicles to reassure the passing merchants. Hu Wenkai patted his head, how could he forget the Chinese characteristics of car bandits and road rage, in the eighties and nineties, the control was so strong, and car bandits and road rage were as prevalent.
Wu Hongxia, Dai Jitao, Yang Siliang, Li Congshan, Chen Jiaxiang, Li Manqiang, Li Wenjun, and Wang Changrong and Sun Daming, who were brought by Hu Wenkai, sat in the conference room of the General Staff Headquarters.
"This battle is off to a good start, and the navy will solve the Yangtze River Fleet docked at Ningbo Port without blood. Now let's see the results of our infiltration of various departments in Zhejiang. Hu Wenkai left a cigarette on the table.
"Li Manqiang: Has the improvised airport over there been built in Ningbo? There's a good chance you'll need to transfer the operatives from there tomorrow. β
"Boss, the site has been leveled overnight and can be put into use early tomorrow morning."
"Wu Hongxia's statement to Lu Yongxiang at 12 o'clock tonight has been recorded? Can it be played on time? β
"The boss was all ready to stop last night, and it was on time at twelve o'clock."
"Who is the contact person of the Zhejiang Division?"
"The boss is student Li Sanqiang, and he is a classmate of the deputy commander of the Zhejiang Division."
"Remember that tomorrow at dawn, the Zhejiang Division will retreat in the direction of the 10th Division, because our two brigades on the Jiangsu side are besieging him, and they are on standby after approaching the 10th Division."
The staff officer is recording Hu Wenkai's orders.
"Where did the plane reconnoiter the 4th Division march in the afternoon?"
Li Manqiang pointed to the map: "The two brigades of the Fourth Division marched day and night from their garrisons near Fujian, and the day before yesterday they joined up with the division headquarters in the suburbs of Hangzhou and marched directly in the direction of Huzhou without stopping; at four o'clock this afternoon, the plane reconnaissance front troops had arrived near Baijialing, the Qingpu military camp had ordered a regiment and a battalion to rush to Fangwuling to set up a blocking position, the personnel of the first brigade had already arrived near Qingshan Township at seven o'clock in the evening by water transport, and the heavy equipment was expected to arrive at three o'clock in the evening. β
"I want to ask you if you don't take a good flat road, this Chen Leshan is sick, take this mountain road." Hu Wenkai asked puzzled,
"Boss, you don't know, although the flat road is easy to walk, there is a river all the way. They are not as good as us, and when we meet the river, there are sappers who can cross the river as soon as they put the prefabricated bridge. They had no way to cross the river with artillery and ammunition, and the river was full of small boats, which could not transport a few people, and even if there were bridges, they could not bear the weight of the soldiers and artillery. Although the mountain road is not easy to walk, at least it is not blocked by the river. β
Hu Wenkai patted his head: "Nima, I haven't changed my thinking and think that the Fourth Division is equipped with the same equipment as us, so I ordered Wang Hongguo to pay attention to reminding the first battalion of the blocking troops to carry more clean water, and it is difficult to have water sources for operations in mountainous areas." β
Wu Hongxia couldn't stand the smoke in the conference room, opened the window, but didn't blame them, knowing that everyone was quite nervous about smoking to relieve their emotions.
