Chapter 373: A Night Visit by a Rare Guest

An Yi, Lao Shoudao, Zhou Dashan and several responsible persons of the old Nanchang Chamber of Commerce stood in front of the grass pavilion on the east bank, pointing at the river and the west bank.

Lao Shoudao asked An Yi where he built the pontoon bridge when he hit Nanchang? An Yi said that more than two kilometers downstream, Zhou Dashan recalled the terrifying killing that night, and still said in horror that no one dared to farm that battlefield, and the dozens of acres of fields on the east coast of the old battlefield were green, the weeds grew taller than people, and the screams of evil ghosts were often heard at night.

An Yi shook his head and smiled, saying Where are there any evil ghosts? It is estimated that the place is flat, at most it is just a whimper from the strong wind blowing in the evening after the grass grows taller, and the place will soon be used.

An Yi has decided to build a large iron bridge with seven cement piers two miles downstream of the wharf, connecting the rapidly developing old Nanchang with Shengmi Town on the west bank, and then going to Gao'an, Shanggao, Yichun and then to Xiangdong, there is no need to ferry the wide Ganjiang River by boat, which will greatly stimulate the development of the entire economy.

Half a month ago, 12 bridge engineers from Germany and Sweden have been accompanied by the security team to carry out repeated surveys of the eight-kilometer section of the river, and finally selected the best bridge construction point, headquartered in Shanghai Sweden Dahua Company very much hopes to obtain the construction of the project, the specific quotation has not yet been budgeted, but the preliminary quotation has been: counting a total of seven bridge piers on both sides of the strait, the load-bearing standard is not less than 35 tons of bridge cost, about 1.3 million yuan of silver dollar coupons issued by the Bank of China.

An Yi asked Zhou Dashanren: "Uncle Zhou, how much does it cost to requisition 7,000 acres of land on both sides of the strait?" ”

"Based on the current price of wasteland and sloping land, the average price per mu is about 20 yuan, which is about 150,000 yuan, and the price of the paddy field connecting the back wall of the new college is about 200 mu, and it is estimated that it will cost about 10,000 yuan. The philanthropists of Chow Tai, whose wealth has doubled, are now more kind.

Lao Dao nodded and said: "Let's start preparing for land acquisition, take advantage of the autumn harvest to finish as soon as possible, or take the old way, the Chamber of Commerce will invest 30%, Jiangnan Group will invest 70%, and when the bridge is repaired and the road is opened, it will become the largest industrial area in our old Nanchang." ”

After the bridge is completed, through the sale of more than 10,000 acres of land on both sides of the strait and the unified construction of residences and factories, I am afraid that they will earn back the money of several bridges.

The big thing was decided, An Yi was much more relaxed, returned to the side of the road to say goodbye to everyone politely, and got into his car to return to the non-commissioned officer training base.

Lao Dao and Zhou Dashan people are left behind, standing on the side of the road to discuss for a while, and they all walked to their respective cars back to the city, now Zhou Dashan and the nine directors of the Chamber of Commerce are amazing, all have their own imported bridge cars, and their living habits are very different from the past, not only with the help of An Yi, most of the young and promising descendants of the family will be sent out to stay abroad or enter An Yi's army, and they can also manage the business on the steaming business, and a few of them can also use "Hello" to greet foreigners.

Lao Dao returned to his home, received a secret report from his nephew and assistant Zong Xingyuan, and immediately called An Yi in the base after reading it, and in less than fifteen minutes, An Yi returned by car, took the teacup presented by Zong Xingyuan, and asked in a low voice: "Have you found out?" ”

"It's clear, Zhao Shiduo, the shopkeeper of Gao'an, is famous for his grain business in central and western Jiangxi, concurrently engaged in timber, medicinal materials, and mountain goods, and has a branch in Gao'an, Ji'an, Qingjiang and Fuzhou, and bought the land next door to our Chamber of Commerce last month, and built a two-storey shop and warehouse together with the Chamber of Commerce, which is estimated to be completed and opened at the end of the year, and last month we quietly sold him more than 100 spears and 100,000 rounds of ammunition, and finally he was transported to the mountains of Pinggang in batches, and did not sell it to the gentry of the towns around Ji'an City as he said.

Four days ago, he was arrested by the 3rd Division and 4th Regiment of the New Ninth Army on charges of selling weapons and banditry in Shanggao County, and spent five oceans bribing the guards, and the greedy guards quietly submitted a letter to our firm for help. ”

Lao Dao put down the secret report, and slowly tapped the table with two fingers.

An Yi immediately realized the true identity of Zhao's shopkeeper, and was deeply surprised that this wealthy businessman who had dealt with him before his career was so well hidden, and thought carefully about how to save his life, otherwise he would have been escorted out by those garrisons to shoot targets, and he was afraid that he would also have the reputation of a counter-revolutionary: "Uncle, how can it be the third division and the fourth regiment stationed in Shanggao?" When did the third division of the New Ninth Army have an extra number of four regiments? ”

"You don't know? This fourth regiment originally belonged to the Ninth Army, was the end of August from southern Anhui to join the remnants of the Ninth Army of the Guizhou Army, originally stationed in Gao'an, last month after the adjustment of the defense of Shanggao, since the beginning of September after the Ninth Army elite soldiers streamlined the administration, many of the attached Guizhou Army scattered and fled, only this regiment of the Guizhou Army still left in the Ninth Army sequence, this time the reorganization of the new Ninth Army, their two regiments were reorganized into a garrison regiment of more than 2,400 officers and soldiers, the number is the three divisions and four regiments. "Lao Dao is very clear about the situation of the surrounding garrisons, and it sounds like a treasure.

An Yi said in surprise: "There is still the Qianjun army left in the Ninth Army? In Liuquan, north of Xuzhou, I once led my troops to fight side by side with the Tenth Army of the Guizhou Army, and I was familiar with several division commanders and some regiment commanders of the Tenth Army...... What is the name of that regimental leader? ”

Lao Dao recalled and replied: "The head of the regiment is called Shi Zhen, the deputy surname of the regiment is Mo, and I forgot the name." ”

An Yi laughed, and then told Lao Dao how the two mutinous Qian army commanders were almost executed by Wang Tianpei, and happened to let himself save them:

“…… If they are better, wait a while you let people send my name card to Shanggao on a fast horse, one hundred and ten kilometers of road can arrive tomorrow morning, it is estimated that they will not kill Boss Zhao for a while and a half, tell the regiment leader Shi Zhen and the regiment deputy Mo Ronggao, just say that Boss Zhao is my friend, and ask them to come over one day to catch up with the old days, have a good drink, it is estimated that they will give me this face. ”

Lao Dao nodded: "It's safer to deal with it this way, and you don't need to alarm too many people." This Zhao Shiduo is also a business talent, more than a month with us to do timber, tea oil, peppermint oil, gum and leather goods and other business gradually expanded, polite, very honest, it is estimated that he was too careless to be stolen, this time we rescued him, it is estimated that the future business will be better, our Ganxi caravan will be much safer. ”

An Yi nodded and wanted to leave, but Lao Dao stopped him for advice: "I was drinking at your Uncle De's house last night, and your Uncle De proposed to upgrade your security regiment to the Ganzhong Security Command, and asked me what my opinion was, I told him that I had to ask you about this, he smiled and didn't say anything, it is estimated that he will find time to discuss with you in the past two days."

I came back overnight after drinking last night, and I met Huan Qi who was also there, and took my car back to Lao Nanchang together, with a happy face and a woman's fragrance on my body. ”

"No wonder this guy recently ran to Nanchang City whenever he was free, it is estimated that he was thin-skinned and embarrassed to visit the kiln in the old Nanchang, and went to a place with many people in Nanchang City, especially recently there were some White Russian women in the city, it is estimated that this guy also went to steal the fishy taste, haha! The dog can't see it......"

An Yi couldn't help but laugh.

Lao Dao glanced at An Yi: "Why are you so dirty in your head?" Huanqi, this kid is more decent than anyone else, he is in the prime of life, he is reliable, he can write well with one hand, he has both civil and military skills, and he is the same as Jinan, who rushed to Chizhou with a letter from your vice principal Li Jishen a few days ago, he is a rare and honest person, and you have done a ......good job as a teacher Okay, let's tell you the truth, Huan Qi somehow got along with your Uncle De's youngest daughter Yunhua, it seems that your Uncle De is quite satisfied, and it is estimated that you will be able to drink the wedding wine soon. ”

An Yi sighed in surprise: "Ah, this guy has hidden it from me and my brothers, and it turns out that he has taken the lead...... Not bad, very good! I'm going to give him a big gift when he has a happy event! ”

"People don't lack your generous gifts, I said, if you look good, it is better to exchange Lanpu with Huanqi to become brothers, Huanqi's family is poor, and his mother died early, he just picked up his father and sister and brother-in-law's family in his hometown, he is low-key and introverted, extremely filial, if you form a brother with a different surname with him, you can bring him a little help, so that he will not be too inferior in front of your Uncle De." Lao Dao calmly suggested.

An Yi nodded happily: "What I said is that it is my An Yi's blessing to have such a brother, uncle, how about you preside over it?" ”

Lao Dao said yes again and again, thought about it and suggested: "I'm not enough, I also want to invite your Uncle De to come and work together for you, so that it can be more festive." ”

"Okay! It's up to you. ”

The sky was getting dark, and An Yi, who was in a happy mood, called Shen Fengdao, Hu Jialin and Gu Changfeng, who had not yet started a family, to come to Lao Hantou's shop again, and boarded the special box on the east side of the second floor, and began to drink before the food was served.

An Yi told Hu Jialin and Gu Changfeng about Zhan Huanqi and Zhu Yunhua's friendship, and the two were shocked and greatly moved, and they were also happy that Zhan Huanqi was about to marry a Yunnan native who was famous in Nanchang.

An Yi asked why Huzi insisted on not looking for a woman? Hu Jialin smiled slightly, still reluctant to answer, Gu Changfeng was very happy, and quietly told An Yi a good news after teasing his beard for a few words: his good friend Zhou Ruoting said in the letter that he would come next week, and also said that her good sister Feng Jieyun, who had ice muscles and jade bones and no sweat, would also come together.

An Yi's heartbeat when he heard it, his stomach was full of warmth, and he almost didn't drool on the spot, Hu Jialin looked at An Yi disdainfully and reminded him to pay attention to his image, An Yi's old face was red, he smiled dumbly, raised his glass and just wanted to hide the embarrassment on his face, Lin Yaodong, the head of the guard, pushed the door in and reported in a low voice: "Big brother, there is an old man outside the door downstairs who wants to see you." ”

"It's time...... Who is it? An Yi asked.

"Li Xiaolong and a person who claims to be a big brother and a senior brother." Lin Yaodong replied.

An Yi put down his wine glass, thought about it, and ordered loudly: "Please!" No...... I personally went down to meet him. ”

"Slow! At this time, dozens of tables downstairs are full of guests, and it is not appropriate for you to go down. Shen Fengdao suggested.

An Yi nodded: "Yes, Xiao Jiu, just bring it quietly." ”

"Yes!"
