Chapter 118: Someone from the Country
Just as Xu Kehai was leaving, Li Junhao looked at Xu Kehai's back and said, "Brother, I wish you all the best on this trip." ”
On the third day of Xu Kehai's departure, Li Junhao was still immersed in the uneasy heart of the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War in China. At this time, the wooden door of Lee Jun-ho's office was knocked on.
Li Junhong was already in a bad mood, so he said angrily: "What knock, knock, something comes in, Lao Tzu is not dead yet." ”
At this time, Ampdulleni walked in and said, "Chairman, what are you doing, lately you have been biting everyone as if you were eating gunpowder." I also know all about China. Although this war will be fought fiercely. But it is also a good opportunity for China's nirvana to be reborn. Although this process is very tragic, the chairman should not forget that there is still us, and we can provide large-scale assistance to China. It really can't be done, so we send troops into the war to deal with China. ”
Li Junhao felt much better after listening to Ampdulleni's words, and hurriedly asked, "By the way, Lao An, do you have anything to do with me?" ”
"I don't have anything to do, but there are people outside clamoring to see you in front of the government building, and I won't leave if I don't see them," said Ampduller. ”
Li Junhao said angrily: "Who are they, you have to see me every day, you are too, I am not a monkey, and some irrelevant people will be expelled directly." This man wants to see me, and that man wants to see me. You are a dignified prime minister of a country who came to me to report in a hurry, and you are not tired of it. ”
After listening to Li Junhao's words at this time, Ampdullerny said: "Yes, I will arrange for someone to drive them away, although they are people from the place where the chairman has been thinking about it, but they are also some inconsequential people. I'll go. ”
"Wait, where are you talking about people?" Li Junhao hurriedly stopped Ampdullerni and asked:
Ampdullerni is a dull person who doesn't like to joke, and when he saw that Li Junhao was more interested, he replied: "It's a person named Kong Xiangxi, who claims to be the president of the Executive Yuan of the Republic of China government and the minister of finance." ”
When Li Junhao heard this, he immediately asked, "Is this person wearing a pair of glasses?" Lee Jun-ho remembers seeing a photo of this person on the Internet in later generations, and this person is wearing a pair of glasses.
Li Junhao will then think of later generations, Kong Xiangxi (September 11, 1880 - August 16, 1967), the name Yongzhi, the name Ziyuan, a native of Taigu County, Shanxi Province, the 75th grandson of the Confucius family, the President of the National Government of Nanjing, the Republic of China, and the Minister of Finance. He was also a banker and wealthy businessman. Kong Xiangxi's wife is Song Ailing. Kong is related to Song Ziwen and Chang Kaishen by marriage. Kong Xiangxi has been in charge of the finance of the national government for a long time, and his main achievements include reforming China's currency system, building China's banking system, and increasing the state's control over the capital market.
He is extremely greedy for money, but he is still relatively patriotic. During the Anti-Japanese War, it was also the defense of the country to strive for foreign aid, and Chang Kaishen's wife Song Meiling ran around. I didn't come first, because of my own reasons, I didn't go to the United States, but ran to myself. Since it was from China, Li Junhao still decided to meet him.
Thinking of this, Li Junhao said: "Okay, I'll see you." must be a domestic bigwig-level figure. I guess I'm here to ask for help. I happen to be going to China's aid too. ”
Ampdulleni then went out and came in a few minutes with four or five Chinese. The first one looks a little fat, but it's not very fat, and he's about 1.72 meters tall. Lee Jun-ho judged that this person was Kong Xiangxi. He hurriedly stood up and said, "Mr. Kong is coming to Africa, and on behalf of the government and people of the African People's Republic, I would like to welcome you. "Now Lee Jun-ho's official words are coming.
Kong Xiangxi was stunned for a moment when he saw that Li Junhao was only a young man about twenty years old, and then regained his composure and said, "Thank you, Chairman Li and your government for your hospitality." I am a person who belongs to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. ”
Li Junhao understood in his heart, but still pretended to be innocent and asked, "Mr. Kong has something to say." As long as Li can do it. I finish it by all means. ”
"That's right, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression has broken out in China, but the country's armament is really embarrassing. Our weapons lagged behind Japan's, and the front-line soldiers could only fight with flesh and blood and the enemy's aircraft, tanks, and artillery. I have come here to hope that Chairman Li will lend a helping hand to support China. ”
After hearing this, Li Junhao said: "I have always been concerned about domestic affairs. It's kind of understanding. As for what you said about applying for assistance, I personally fully agree. But I'd like to know what you all need. I have a number in my mind. ”
Kong Xiangxi looked back at an officer wearing a revolutionary army uniform behind him, and the officer opened a briefcase he was carrying, took out a document from it and handed it to Li Junhao.
Li Junhao took the list and immediately took a breath of cold air, and muttered secretly in his heart: I'll go, tanks, planes, and artillery are all needed. You're going to let me change your clothes.
After reading the list, Li Junhao said: "I personally said that I can help with these weapons you want." But you have overlooked one problem. The lightest tank in my hands also weighs about 30 tons. How do you move domestically, Japanese warships in the Far East are not decorations. You want tanks, do you have enough drivers. It's not enough for you to transport it back. Instead of this, you might as well return home with some anti-tank weapons, which would be much more cost-effective. ”
Before Kong Xiangxi came to Africa again, he received this form and muttered in his heart. Although Li Junhao is Chinese, his country has only just been built. Money is needed everywhere. I'm afraid it's hard to get foreign aid if we open our mouths like this. So he raised his doubts with Chang Kaishen. Chang Kaishen's reply was to try his best, and in the end, we will follow what the other party gives. It's really not possible to apply for a white slip to buy. Pay later.
At this time, Kong Xiangxi said: "Chairman Li, I also know that your country has just been built. Money is needed everywhere, and we don't ask for weapons in vain, we spend money on them. But at the moment the country is in financial difficulty. Can you repay the loan in the future? ”
After hearing this, Li Junhao said directly with a black line on his head: "It's not a matter of money or not, my tanks are at least 30 tons each." You think that you have to arm at least one tank division for a role. This tank division needs at least close to 200 tanks. In other words, your country has been blockaded by the Japanese devils along the coast, and if you want to transport these tanks back to China, I am afraid that you will have to use the British colony of Burma. The British are obsessed with my affairs. According to their urine nature, until I help you, my latest tank, I will definitely detain you. ”
