Chapter 239 Kunming Anecdote

Kunming really does not lose the elegant name of the spring city, the season enters the middle of November, here is still full of flowers, everywhere is full of warm atmosphere. Ge Yunfei and his wife said goodbye to Lin Jiaxiang and his wife on the platform and wished them good luck. At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a top hat stepped forward and said, "Mr. Ge, my subordinate is the head of the Kunming Intelligence Station, and he is responsible for the safety of Mr. Ge under the orders of the director of the bureau. Ge Yunfei frowned and said, "Shan Feng's nose is long enough, it's like playing the piano randomly." ”

Ge Yunfei said softly: "It's my duty, it's hard for you." Remember, don't disturb us! "Subordinates obey orders!" After leaving, the middle-aged man did not go far, but ordered several subordinates to implement a guard on the periphery. "Yunfei, it's someone sent by Shan Feng again, it's really annoying!" Wen Qing's excitement when she pouted and got out of the car was gone. "Wen Qing, this is Shan Feng's responsibility, and it is understandable." "It seems that we can't get there without his sight, it can't be a dog! Now I feel uncomfortable just by seeing his grim face! "Dealing with the devil every day, and his special profession has made him like this, if you want to blame me, blame me."

"I'm sorry for Yuhuan, I heard that he is often not at home, even when he goes home, he is silent, it seems that he has a lot of worries every day, if I face such a person every day, I will die of depression!" Ge Yunfei was speechless, Shan Feng's personality was very lively before, and now they rarely gossip when they meet each other. Maybe people who are engaged in intelligence work will change their personalities over time.

Ge Yunfei changed the topic and said: "Wenqing, do you know why Kunming is ** city? "I don't know!" Wen Qing seemed to be still struggling. "Although I haven't been to Kunming, I learned about it from Cai Ye. Kunming belongs to the plateau mountain monsoon climate, the average annual temperature is about 16 degrees, the climate is pleasant, so it is called the spring city. In addition, it is a great place for flowers to grow, and it blooms all year round. The famous red beans, also called acacia beans, are produced here. ”

"Red beans are born in the south, a few branches are sent in spring, and you are advised to collect more, this thing is the most lovesick!" Wen Qing moaned faintly, as if reminding him of the past. Ge Yunfei talked eloquently: "In fact, Kunming has a long history, and the Kun character of Kunming is the name of a tribe of ethnic minorities in the southwest. The word Kunming can be traced back to the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The historian at that time, Sima Qian, wrote in the Historical Records. The Biography of Southwest Yi Lie wrote: The west is east of the same division, north to Ye Yu, named a certain and Kunming, all braided and haired, migrating with livestock, no strengths, no Jun hair, thousands of miles away, it can be seen that the word Kunming is the ethnic name of the ethnic minorities in Yunnan in ancient times. ”

Ge Yunfei didn't care whether Wen Qing understood or not: "Kunming appeared as a place name and began in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, it can be seen that Kunming has a history ······of 2,000 years of civilization. The Han people appeared here because a large number of Han people entered Yunnan during the Ming Dynasty, causing the Han population to exceed the local ethnic minorities. When the Han people entered Yunnan, they not only brought advanced farming technology, but also advanced culture here. At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Li Dingguo's peasant army, Emperor Yongli, and Wu Sangui successively established political power here. In the late Qing Dynasty, British and French colonists invaded Yunnan, and modern industries began to appear here. ”

"In particular, the Yunnan-An'an railway was completed, and modern industries and mines appeared in Kunming in ten years. The Qing Dynasty included Kunming as an open port city in 05, and the breath of modern industry began to permeate the ······ of Kunming. With Ge Yunfei's gushing explanation, Wen Qing's mood improved. Due to the Yunnan-Anhui Railway and the advanced technology brought by the French, the business atmosphere of Kunming City has become stronger and stronger in less than ten years, and it has become a dazzling pearl in the southwest.

The development of the great southwest and even the great northwest is an indispensable part of the national government's economic development. Kunming already has certain conditions, how to make the southwest keep up with the pace of development of the coastal areas, Ge Yunfei must make an on-the-spot investigation, and at the same time find the deficiencies and correct them.

Ge Yunfei took Wenqing to visit the scenic spots and historic sites of Kunming City, beautiful scenery and elegant places, Wenqing is happy and happy, but Ge Yunfei's mind is not in this, he wants to see how Kunming has changed through the goods and varieties traded in the bazaar, people's spiritual outlook, and talking to each other.

A commercial street is crowded with people, rubbing shoulders and backs, and the flow of people is like a tide, which can be seen to be prosperous in trading. Ge Yunfei found through investigation in Hanoi that since the Yunnan-An'an Railway was recovered, this railway artery has become the busiest transportation line, and the industrial products from the inland coastal areas have basically replaced the inland transportation and incoming products by sea to Kunming through the railway to Haiphong Port, which shows that the industrial products in the coastal areas have gradually replaced foreign goods and occupied half of the country.

Through the labels of the goods in the shops on both sides, it can be seen that the vast majority of goods are produced domestically. There are sewing machines and bicycles made in Shanghai, and daily necessities are produced locally, indicating that the local industry is also developing rapidly.

A department store aroused Wenqing's interest, and the husband and wife walked in, and there was a dazzling array of goods inside. In the textile section, many local ethnic minority women are buying colorful flower cloths. "Yunfei is the flower cloth produced by Dahua Textile Factory, and there are more varieties." Wen Qing's face was full of joy and praise.

"It is an inevitable trend for domestic flower cloth to squeeze out foreign cloth in the southwest, and you can see that the streets are full of domestic goods, which is enough to explain the problem. In a European war, foreigners lost half of the share of the Chinese market, and the quality of domestic industrial products is getting better and better, and it can be compared with foreign goods, especially in terms of price, foreign goods have fallen in an all-round way. The emergence of bulk domestic products on the market is the best witness, which shows that our industrial manufacturing capacity has begun to blow out. Chen Shouting swore that textiles would occupy the Nanyang market, which was true. ”

The husband and wife walked out of the department store as they spoke, and there seemed to be a sense of satisfaction in their hearts. Suddenly, a lively scene came into view, and the front of a shop was surrounded by a crowd. Ge Yunfei looked up and saw that the plaque above the crowd read "Kunming Car Dealership" in 4 big characters. The husband and wife approached and saw two grass-green jeeps in front of the car dealership. One jeep had a canvas canopy and the other had an open top. A young man worked hard to sell: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a new Beijing-made jeep from this car dealership." ”

"This kind of car is used by the Wehrmacht, and it is suitable for running mountain roads, muddy roads, and can climb steep slopes of 45 degrees······." Ge Yunfei was a little surprised in his heart, when he left the capital, the civilian version of the jeep was only introduced to the market, but he didn't expect the businessman to sell the jeep to Kunming. The Jeep's off-road performance is excellent, making it ideal for the rugged mountain roads of Yunnan, and savvy businessmen will not miss this opportunity. Some people began to ask about the price of the car, and some people asked if the car dealership sold gas.

For ordinary people, the price of cars is expensive, and since car dealers sell cars, they will naturally sell oil. In addition, the car dealer also teaches driving for free, so some people are naturally eager to try. Soon the first car was sold, and the seller waved his hands to show off, causing the people around him to cheer.

Ge Yunfei and his wife Wenqing left the car dealership, and Ge Yunfei said excitedly: "Soon the car horns will sound in the alleys of Kunming, and the price of jeeps can be affordable for wealthy families." I don't expect it to be in short supply in less than a month, and the price will double if it is scarce and expensive. ”

"Yes, rich people want face, naturally they are not far behind, and businessmen's sense of smell is indeed sensitive." Wen Qing sighed. "If Mr. Lin sees this scene, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it." Passing by a secluded alley, Wen Qing couldn't help but pause. "Wen Qing, what are you looking at?" "Yunfei, let's go in and have a look!" Ge Yunfei looked into the alley and saw the inscription "Kunming Nursery Hospital" on the door plaque of a house, through the low courtyard wall, you can see the courtyard surrounded by greenery and children's voices, there is no doubt that this is an orphanage donated by the China Charity Committee.

"Wen Qing, you can't go in!" "Why?" "When you go in, our identity will be revealed, can you still go shopping leisurely?" Wen Qingwen dispelled his thoughts and said unwillingly: "I really want to go in and see the orphans inside and learn about their living conditions." "Wen Qing, you are the chairman of the Charity Committee, and your subordinates will not dare to fool you in your capacity." "Husband and wife, that's what it means!" "It's okay if you understand it like this, let's go, let's go to Dianchi."

That night, the head of the Kunming Intelligence Station came to the hotel where Ge Yunfei was staying. "Did the mysterious people who appeared in the market figure out who they were?" "Chief Hui, those people belong to the underworld forces, and the merchants in the market must hand over the protection council to them in order to avoid trouble!" Ge Yunfei was wandering around the market when he found several unusual people, and the merchant seemed to be scared when he saw them, so he asked the Kunming intelligence station chief to investigate the details of these people.

"In the name of the CIA, you put an end to this evil force. In addition, it was conveyed to the Yunnan Police Department and ordered the director of the Kunming Police Department to suspend his post for reflection. The Kunming Police Department is required to severely punish the police who act as the protective umbrella of the underworld forces. ”

Ge Yunfei took out a draft telegram and continued: "This draft telegram is sent to Shan Feng and forwarded to the president!" "Subordinates obey orders!" The content of the telegram draft roughly means: At present, along with the active economy, the criminal syndicates and evil forces in various localities have changed their methods; in the past, they used to expropriate and extort money in broad daylight, but now they have gone underground to commit crimes. Ge Yunfei suggested that the president order to launch a crackdown on underworld forces throughout the country to ensure the smooth and safe operation of commercial and trade activities.

In addition, Ge Yunfei suggested in a telegram to the president that the police headquarters should be urged to conduct a self-examination, and that all police officers who are related to the underworld forces and act as a protective umbrella should be severely punished, no matter who they are. The next day, the secret operation of the Kunming intelligence station was launched, and this kind of operation was a pediatric operation for the intelligence station agents, and it did not make much noise. The next day, Ge Yunfei still accompanied his wife to enjoy the mountains and rivers, leisurely.

There is no need to repeat the results of the operation, in late November, Ge Yunfei and his wife Wenqing went north to Sichuan CD.
