Chapter 640: 100,000 Troops Enter the River (6)

"My old brother...... Is that arsenal yours? How dare he buy it from you! Wang Yongan laughed, and said in his heart Chen Qimei pretended to be confused, although these two major manufacturing bureaus are now controlled by you, but after all, they belong to the property of the central government, and they will definitely be gradually recovered after the country is stabilized. Zhang Jian's purchase from the central government is on the right path, what is it to buy from you, and what right do you have to transfer them?

Although Chen Qimei is a bit of a Jianghu atmosphere, she is not a fool after all, Zhang Jian's purchase of the arsenal from the central government is the right way, but he is just indignant that he has not received benefits, so he has to sigh and say: "Okay, since you have a brother to intercede, I can't help but give him this face." You tell Zhang Gong that I am willing to cooperate with him to establish the Jiangnan Arsenal. But I said, brother, how much benefit can you take in this matter? You're not short of money, I guess he's done you a big favor, right? ”

Wang Yongan blinked his eyes and said, "Clever, so smart!" To tell you the truth, after the merger of the two major manufacturing bureaus into the Jiangnan Arsenal, some workers and equipment will inevitably be eliminated, so I will buy these surplus workers and equipment, and they will go to the river with me. Brother, I plan to build a southwest arsenal on the riverside, at least to achieve self-sufficiency in weapons and ammunition, so as not to be pinned down by others in the future. You also know that I have a very bad relationship with foreigners, and if they ban the sale of weapons to my army, won't the weapons of my men become burning sticks? ”

"Hahahaha......" Chen Qimei laughed, "Why do you say that you always work against foreigners, foreign devils have long looked at you unpleasantly, I guess, last time you were assassinated and had a lot to do with foreign devils." ”

Wang Yongxin was taken aback, he always thought that the Japanese sent someone to assassinate him, but today, Chen Qimei's accidental sentence made him change his mind, what if the British paid someone to assassinate him...... The British Empire, which prides itself on being a civilized nation, is not incapable of such a thing.

Chen Qimei saw that his complexion had deteriorated, so she hurriedly changed the topic, and the two no longer said anything political, but talked about the ups and downs, and talked about the recent westernization of Shanghai.

Especially after the founding of the Republic of China, the Shanghai market has suddenly become even more open than that of the West, and many courtesans have emerged, such as Isabella and Alice, two famous courtesans that have just emerged recently. The so-called courtesans are divided into two kinds, one is the daughter of a famous family, who frequently attends and various social occasions by virtue of her family status. The other is the daughters of ordinary families like Isabella, relying on beauty and talent, and getting very close to various sons and rich people in Shanghai, saying that they are someone's lover, saying that they are someone's fiancΓ©e, in short, there is no shortage of topics where they are. A hundred years later, Isabella and their courtesans have a proper name, tender model.

Wang Yongan didn't care about acting on the spot, but he didn't have any feelings for these courtesans, because he was often assassinated, he sent Isabella and Alice away during the break, which made the two girls angry and ashamed.

Wang Yongan helped Zhang Jian get back the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and Jinling Manufacturing Bureau from Chen Qimei, so he immediately sent Zhang Jian a telegram, and Zhang Jian then asked his younger brother and relatives to go to Shanghai to take over the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau. Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau has the largest shipyard in China, and it can be said that Zhang Jian has picked up a big bargain, which can be called the first golden hand in the investment world. However, Wang Yongan did not plan to go to Zhang Jian to dispose of a piece of the pie, he now focused all his energy on the Sichuan side, and dreamed of preserving the integrity of the map of China by recovering Xizang, and avoiding the embarrassment of being occupied and unable to recover southern Tibet in the future.

At this time, San Lucas sent a telegram, saying that due to the famine in Mexico this winter, there was also a famine in San Lucas, and Wang Yongan was specially asked to lend them some money to survive the famine. Without saying a word, Wang Yongan immediately allocated $5 million to the San Lucaster District Government through Citibank, which solved the urgent needs of overseas Chinese. Wang Yongan's generosity awakened and encouraged the Chinese people in San Lucas, who sent a telegram to Wang Yongan, hoping that if he was not in politics at home, he should come to San Lucas immediately, and the people of San Lucas would always enshrine him as the first chief executive.

After dealing with the cooperation between Chen Qimei and Zhang Jian, Wang Yongan decided to return to Pukou, but Chen Qimei came with Huang Xing. ”

"Where?" Wang Yongan asked.

"In Shanghai."

"How's the case going?"

"There's a lot of progress."

Wang Yongan thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll watch from the sidelines." ”

Huang Xing said again: "If the result is that some people assassinate Song Yuchu for their own political positions, I would like to ask Brother Jingyun, will you say a few words for Song Yuchu, who died unjustly?" ”

Wang Yongan touched his chin and asked, "Are my words useful?" ”

"It works." Huang Xing hurriedly said, "If no one speaks for Song Yuchu, there will really be no justice and justice in China, and there will be no democracy and republic in China." ”

Wang Yongan sighed: "Isn't it ridiculous that I, a national traitor, spoke for Song Yuchu. ”

Both Huang Xing and Chen Qimei knew that Wang Yongan had been denounced as a traitor by the whole country for cooperating with Japan in the construction of the Dihai Railway, and major newspapers lashed out at him for his actions, which eventually led to the collapse of the railway project. In this matter, many people understand that Wang Yongan's hard work and conscience to build such a large railway, the central government must not come up with money, and can only find foreign countries to cooperate in the construction. It's just that Wang Yongan is looking for Japan, and Japan has an extremely special and sensitive position in the hearts of the Chinese, which led to Wang Yongan being abused.

Huang Xing's tone faded, and he said with a wry smile: "Jingyun, I know that Song Yuchu criticized you when he was in Shanghai, but he was also for the public, not for personal gain. Do you know the list of his cabinets? On his list of future cabinets, you are the first choice for the Chief of the Army. ”

Wang Yongan asked with a little interest: "Is there anything else?" ”

"I can testify." Chen Qimei raised her hand on the side and said, "I heard Song Yuchu say that he said that you are an undefeated general, let you be the army commander, and you will definitely be able to recover Mongolia, Xizang and Taiwan." ”

Wang Yongan shook his head and said: "He has promoted me, I have never commanded any battle, I am just a nominal generalissimo." Actually, I don't have any impression of Song Yuchu, after all, I have never had any contact with him, but if there is really someone who uses assassination to achieve his political goals, I must eradicate this kind of person. In the end, Wang Yongan gritted his teeth, he was assassinated repeatedly, and he really hated the assassin to the heart, and he wanted to poke his bones and scatter ashes.

Huang Xingdao: "Officially, the establishment of the Republic of China, how can you tolerate this kind of person." ”

Chen Qimei nodded with a smile on the side, her eyes flickered, and cold sweat flowed in her heart.
