Chapter 53 Flue-cured Tobacco

"Brother Shen, Brother Wen, Company Commander Wu, the statistics have been made, now the number of people in our 613 Regiment who are still alive and have reported to the division headquarters is one hundred and seventy-six, of which ninety-seven can participate in the battle, thirty-two are slightly injured, and as for the remaining forty-seven who are seriously injured, there are thirteen brothers who are physically disabled and can no longer go to the battlefield."

In this era of desperate struggle with the invaders, a soldier who cannot pick up a gun is no longer a soldier. But they have shed blood for the country and the people, they are heroes, even if they have never killed a devil, the moment they pick up a gun and confront the invaders, whether they are dead or alive.

"Let's talk about what about these dozen brothers? After the brothers returned like this, they did not know whether they would be able to wait until the time when they would be able to take away Little Japan. ”

The physically disabled brothers lacked the ability to survive, and they carried guns to fight side by side with Zhang Ziwen and others, and Zhang Ziwen could not let the brothers shed blood and tears.

"Didn't we just get paid? We give the brothers a little more so that they can have a better life. Ma Xiaobao had the idea of just getting a military salary.

"Although we have paid the military salary in full this time, all of them are given to more than a dozen brothers, and they can live well for a few years, but what will happen in the future, and more brothers will be injured in the future, what will we do when the time comes."

Shen Qiyu thinks long-term, this is indeed a problem, as long as our 103rd Division is still on the battlefield, there will always be people injured.

"This time, we still have to give some to the brothers, even if it means something. You have to figure out how to see if you can do it once and for all. ”

"Aren't Camp Chief Shen and Zhang Ziwen's family in business? Let's see if you can use this money to do business, with such a capital and my background in the 103rd Division, I think there will be no one to embarrass us in Guizhou, and business can be done. ”

The old pole's words made Zhang Ziwen's eyes light up, and it is a good way to make money with money.

"The key is what kind of business we do, and now that the national crisis is at hand, the best business to do is arms, tobacco and food, but we simply don't have so much money to engage in these businesses."

Wu Zijian gave us a stick at the head, and most of the money-making businesses were in the hands of the government, and the bigwigs would not let go at all.

"I can't earn much from food, and unless the country is rich, the income from my family's grain store is not as good as selling groceries. Lao Shen's grain shop closed two last year, and all of them were replaced by cloth businesses. ”

Last year, food prices fell, and two of the four shops in Lao Shen's family were closed. Hearing that I had denied the path of food, everyone began to ponder again.

"What do you think this is?"

Zhang Qing took out the things and jumped at me, a small box of big cigarettes, it's not okay to sell big cigarettes, this is a harmful thing.

"Don't get me wrong, you are injured and bandaged your wounds are for you to eat, and there is a thing called morphine in the big smoke, which is also something that causes people to become addicted......"

The poppy before the refining of the big smoke is used in medicine, which has the effects of astringent lungs, astringent intestines, cough, pain relief and hypnosis, and treats long-term cough, diarrhea, diarrhea, prolapse, and pain in the heart and abdomen, which is recorded in the medical book.

"You smoke a lot, most of the time you smoke for pain relief and refreshment, in medical terms, it is to paralyze your nerves, if you add an appropriate amount of poppy to the tobacco leaves, the smoke can play a role in paralyzing the nerves. I think that for this kind of smoke, the consumption of the army must be very large, and most of the troops of the Sichuan army, the Yunnan army, and our Guizhou army are all left-handed smokers and right-hand rifles, and the sales of millions of troops must be very large, and our problems will not be solved in time. ”

Zhang Qing's idea shocked us, we all know that big smoke can relieve pain, and it can also make people hidden, and we have never thought of such a use.

"Listen, what every brother hears here can't be said outside, and the teacher can't say it when he asks, and our guarantee will depend on this in the future, whoever dares to say it is robbing the brothers of their livelihood, don't blame me Wu Zijian for not being righteous when the time comes."

Wu Zijian always has to be old and spicy, if Zhang Qing's method is out, any cigarette factory can start to do it immediately, and there are a lot of big cigarettes in Wuhan.

"Tobacco is grown in every family in Guizhou, it's not a problem, but now the problem is that first, we don't know how much to add to the tobacco, and the second, the machine for making tobacco is not cheap. A complete cigarette factory must have a workshop, an oven, a drying room, a generator, a sharpening knife, and four cigarette machines, which totals more than 100,000 yuan, which is still a second-hand price. ”

The money in the hands of Zhang Ziwen and his brothers added up to only 5,000, which was too far away, and when they heard Zhang Ziwen say the price of more than 100,000 yuan, everyone could only smoke and ponder.

"Xiaobao, do you think you can say that uncle, if you and I join forces, we can still take out 100,000 yuan without shaking the fundamentals, plus the brothers' money, there are more than 100,000 yuan, the factory, the baking room or something, we can do it ourselves, and the people at home who are cheap and stuttering are willing to work, as long as they buy machines."

After listening to Lao Shen's words, Zhang Ziwen thought for a while, so it became the business of his family and Lao Shen, and the brothers couldn't get much dividends for this money, and Lao Shen didn't speak after Zhang Ziwen said his thoughts.

More than 100,000 fiat currencies can be exchanged for more than 100,000 oceans, and Zhang Ziwen doesn't know how to earn it, but the problems of the baking house and the factory can be solved according to the method that Lao Shen said.

"You can also build your own flue-cured stove, I am a mason who helped the boss build a flue-cured tobacco stove."

A brother on the side who Zhang Ziwen didn't know said, which immediately attracted our attention.

"Zhou Cannon, I can tell you that this can't be blown, if you can't do it, Lao Tzu will collapse you."

It seems that it is Wu Zijian's soldier, and he usually likes to blow.

"The company commander dares to say anything else, I don't dare to say nonsense, the year before last, I built a flue-cured tobacco stove for a boss from Yuqing to Huangping, and I made a lot of money."

"Go ahead, then why are you still here to be a soldier."

In the past, one-third of those who came to serve as soldiers could not survive, one-third wanted to make meritorious contributions, and the rest were willing to serve the country and repay their kindness.

"Don't take a daughter-in-law, the family doesn't have enough money, but this time it's enough to send it down."

After saying that, he laughed, as if he had already taken his daughter-in-law.

However, Huang Ping is only two hundred miles away from Duyun, and it is impossible for Zhang Ziwen to have one more tobacco company

"Have you ever smoked cigarettes from any tobacco company?" Zhang Ziwen has to ask before he can draw conclusions.

"The factory was put in prison as soon as it was finished, and I heard me say that it seemed to be smuggling big cigarettes, so that the county office raided the house, where will the tobacco be produced."

"Really?"

Huangping is located in the center of Duyun, Guiyang, Kaili and Zunyi, and has convenient transportation, but it is a good place to set up a factory.

"Then I don't know."

Zhou Dacang's words calmed Zhang Ziwen's excited heart again.

"You see, if the factory is really copied, it will definitely not continue to run a cigarette factory, it may be used for other purposes, if you can get it, then Zhang Ziwen and the brothers can save a sum of money, as long as they buy the machine, they will start working this year. Wait for Lao Shen to send a telegram to his home, send someone to check it, if he can, buy him first, there are still four or five months between now and the time to plant tobacco leaves, and we still have six months to start harvesting tobacco leaves in June, and it is estimated that half a year is about the same, and when the time comes, Lao Shen and I will just take out the money from home. ”

After speaking, Zhang Ziwen habitually looked at Lao Shen, and Lao Shen nodded.

"Uncle Shen replied that if it was okay, then Xiaobao took Zhang Qing and Zhou Cannon back to determine the place, and we began to prepare to buy a cigarette machine, do you want it?"

"Okay, I'll send a telegram to my family, and I'll get back in seven days at most." Lao Shen took people out and sent a telegram.

Zhang Ziwen has to think about how to get money from now on, money is money, money is money.
