Chapter 3 General Zheng arrives
"My goods? Well, it's all here. Hu Fei pointed with the cigarette in his hand, and Li San next to him walked over and picked up a small red patent leather box with a length of 50 centimeters and a width and height of almost 40. When I opened the lid, there were soap-sized squares wrapped in yellow paper.
Seeing these squares, Ivan smiled, "Brother Fei, you are so great! You are simply a great god! As soon as he was excited, the Russian man wanted to come over and hug Hu Fei, but was pushed away by Hu Fei with a slap. If it weren't for the face of money, he would have scrapped this unsophisticated polar bear a long time ago!
Hu Fei didn't use much effort, but still pushed Ivan to a stumbling back, this guy waited and widened his eyes, and praised in an exaggerated tone: "Almighty God!" Phineas, how can you have so much strength? Are you really an angel sent by God? Oh, can you let me inspect these goods now? ”
"No! You can't inspect my stuff until I've checked your goods. After Hu Fei finished speaking, he casually buckled the lid of the box. Ivan suddenly had a clear expression of regret on his face.
What is in Hu Fei's box? Big Smoke! In those days, it was common for the army to smuggle and sell tobacco and soil. Hu Fei used to rob big families and got a lot of these things. He doesn't smoke a lot, and few of his cronies and generals have this hobby.
Hu Fei has a very thorough understanding of China's modern history, and knows that opium is the root cause of the disaster to the country and the people, so he naturally does not want to sell the big tobacco in his hands to his own people. Destroy it, right? He didn't have Lin Zexu's courage, and he couldn't bear to look at so much money. As a result, the smoke accumulated more and more, and it was saved. Now that he is out of the country, Hu Fei doesn't have so many worries.
Although I don't know if the big tobacco has an expiration date, it's not very good to stay for a long time. Instead of bothering to save it, you might as well replace it with something useful! Therefore, on the first day of going abroad from Manchuria, Hu Fei gave Liu Dong a task to sell tobacco! This Ivanov is a big customer contacted by Chief of Staff Liu.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, five military trucks stopped at the gate of Hu Fei's barracks on time, and the Russian strong men escorting the trucks unloaded grain bag by bag, all of which were Russian flour.
The flour was unloaded, and Ji Jinbiao took people over to inspect the goods and came back to report to Hu Fei: The car was full of high-quality flour. The next thing is Hu Fei's delivery. The small box was opened and handed to Ivanov, the big man, like a real smoker, first opened a pack and dipped his fingers in it and tasted it, and then gave a thumbs up to indicate that the goods were genuine.
A small box of tobacco soil obviously can't buy five truckloads of flour, Hu Fei took out another box, two boxes of big tobacco for five trucks of flour! Although the price is a little more expensive, it may be good to exchange it for food. It is said that now the Soviet Union is also guarding against Germany in Europe, and the Soviet Union is also short of food!
After the transaction is completed, the two sides shake hands and say goodbye, and someone outside suddenly came to report that Brigade Commander Zheng had arrived!
Why didn't this guy come early or late, just in time for this? Zheng Runcheng didn't come at the right time, Hu Fei was not happy in his heart, and there was no joy on his face. Let Liu Dong let Brigade Commander Zheng into the living room to entertain him, and he had to send Ivan away first.
Since Ivan dared to do this kind of trade in exchanging food for drugs, of course he had a good brain, and he knew what was going on as soon as he saw Hu Fei's expression, "Brother Fei, it looks like you're in trouble, do you need my help?" ”
This guy is quite righteous! Hu Fei smiled bitterly, "No, thank you Ivan." This is an internal matter of our troops, and you can't help. ”
Ivan shrugged his shoulders and followed Hu Fei out. Since people don't want him to help, of course he is happy to worry. Before the two of them reached the gate, they heard someone shouting: "Captain Hu, I heard that you have a guest here, what's the matter, are you leaving?" ”
Hu Fei looked back and saw that it was the brigade commander Zheng Runcheng! Next to him was Liu Dong, who was full of helplessness. Zheng Runcheng is the brigade commander, where is he going, can Liu Dong stop him?
"Hehe, it turned out that Brigade Commander Zheng was here. Let me introduce you to Ivanov, a Soviet friend I met in Domsk. Ivan, this is my commander, General Zheng Runcheng, the brigade commander of the Chinese People's National Salvation Army. ”
Ivanov stretched out his hand, Zheng Runcheng reluctantly shook his eyes and shuttled back and forth between the two, "Captain Hu, I heard that you bought several truckloads of grain, did you buy it from this Mr. Ivan?" Before Hu Fei could speak, Ivan was the first to affirm. Now Zheng Runcheng was even more energetic, "Mr. Ivan, do you still have food there?" I buy it, can I buy more? ”
"Oh, are you going to buy grain?" Ivan shrugged his shoulders again, this guy probably thought his shrugging was quite chic, but it was actually very ugly. Do you think, can a strong man with a height of 1.9 meters and a bearded face with a blue eye and hooked nose shrug his shoulders to look good?
Zheng Runcheng nodded hurriedly, and the eagerness on his face made Hu Fei feel a little embarrassed.
"General Zheng, you know that food is in short supply right now. It's hard to find some food to sell. However, who made you the commander of Phineas? I'll just think about it again. However, in terms of price, it should be the same as what Fei Ge gave, not even one gram less! ”
"Okay, no problem with money. You say how much money is a pound, I'll go back and raise money! Zheng Runcheng was so excited that his eyes lit up. The volunteers are really short of food, and more than a dozen volunteer armies of more than 40,000 soldiers and civilians have to consume how much food do they have to consume every day? Now it's time to store as much food as possible. He Brigade Commander Zheng can't control others, as long as he can ensure that his more than 4,000 people don't go hungry!
"My transaction with Fei Ge is calculated in tons, as for the specific amount per catty, General Zheng can convert it himself." Regarding Zheng Runcheng's petty family, Ivan unceremoniously gave him a disdain, "For every hundred taels of hot Hebei Kou soil, exchange for a cart of standard wheat flour." ”
"Rehe Beikou soil?" Zheng Runcheng repeated this noun again, and the eager expression on his face disappeared, replaced by a stern and indifferent face, "Is Captain Hu the grain that Captain Hu exchanged from Mr. Ivan with the soil of Rehebeikou?" ”
Hu Fei saw that it was going to be bad, so he hurriedly pushed Ivan out and left. Ivan still didn't understand, so he turned around and asked Zheng Runcheng, "General Zheng, if you don't have Beikou soil, you can do anything else, and we can discuss the price again!" ”
"I'm sorry Mr. Ivan, I don't have any soil!" Zheng Runcheng raised his hand after dropping this cold sentence, "Mr. Ivan, do you know that you exchange grain for tobacco and your government?" I think it is appropriate to take you to a meeting with the commander of the Domsk Military District, General Vasily, to discuss the sale of tobacco and soil. ”
As Zheng Runcheng's words ended, several soldiers standing at the gate immediately took out their pistols and aimed them at Vasily!
"Brother Fei, what's going on?" Ivanov's face turned red with anger, this guy must have thought that Hu Fei was going to give him a black meal.
