In addition to publicizing Guangdong's various preferential policies to encourage industry and commerce, there was also an exhibition on the islands of the South China Sea, which exhibited Li Zhun's photographs and maps of his tour of the South China Sea, as well as precious seafood from the South China Sea, which also aroused great interest among overseas Chinese businessmen. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At the tea party, Chen Wenqiang especially explained his methods and results in clearing the township, and while protecting social order, he also explained the crackdown on the Hui Party, as well as the idea of transforming the old-style Hui Party of the Chinese Association in Guangdong, which had not been established for a long time.

After all, there are many Hongmen people in overseas Chinese businessmen, and although the nature is very different from that of the domestic party, it is still necessary to dispel their doubts and reassure them.

"Judging from the current situation, the effect of clearing the countryside is remarkable, and the law and order situation in the Pearl River Delta, where bandits were rampant, has greatly improved. Moreover, the clean-up of the township will be an unremitting action for a long time, and this official will never give up until he completely reverses the notoriety of 'Guangdong bandits are the best in the world'. Your investment and construction in Guangdong will not only enable the economy to develop rapidly and achieve the goal of strengthening the country and enriching the people, but will also enable the people to get rid of poverty and eliminate the root cause of banditry. Chen Wenqiang's attitude was sincere, and he didn't put on any official show, and he didn't even wear official uniforms, "According to the official's thoughts, a stable social environment is also the basic guarantee for you to invest with confidence and participate in national construction, right?" ”

"Dare to ask Lord Chen." Zhong Muxian, president of the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce, respectfully bowed his hand and said: "There are preferential policies for the development of industry and commerce, and is agricultural reclamation also encouraged and promoted by the government?" Xiangzhou is the primary place of development, but do other parts of Guangdong, such as the Chaoshan region, have the same benefits? ”

Chen Wenqiang thought for a while and said: "The original intention of developing Xiangzhou Port was to curb Macao-Portuguese commerce, and the official did not shy away from this. However, in the whole of Guangdong, all patriots are welcome, and there are corresponding preferential policies, and you can also seriously discuss with them. As for agricultural reclamation. As you are all aware, Guangdong is characterized by a vast area and dense population, and it is no longer possible to solve the problem by continuing to develop traditional agriculture in the face of a large number of people and little land. In this regard, the official also has some ideas, that is, to grow cash crops on limited land in order to achieve better economic benefits. Then the rice grain is purchased from outside to solve the problem of eating. ”

After a pause, Chen Wenqiang stretched out his hand to introduce the person next to him, "This is Mr. Tang Youheng, a doctor of agriculture from Cornell University who has returned from studying in the United States, and has been hired by the former governor Zhang Daren to be responsible for planning and preparing for the construction of the Guangdong Provincial Agricultural Experimental Field and its attached agricultural workshop, and has inspected the natural conditions such as soil and climate in Guangdong, and has drawn up a plan for the development of sugar in Guangdong. The official was deeply appreciative and invited Mr. Tang to attend the meeting. Answer your questions. ”

Tang Youheng got up and bowed his hands to all sides, and said politely: "Lord Chen has praised it falsely, my brother is a shallow learner, so he should do his best to answer your doubts and provide advice and help in agricultural technology in the future." Mr. Chen has already planned to provide small loans and technical services to the people throughout the province next spring. Grow a large amount of sugarcane and harvest all ......"

There are questions and answers. Listening to Tang Youheng's explanation, all the overseas Chinese businessmen understood a little. Reclamation may not be feasible in Guangdong, but the sugar industry is profitable, especially with new machinery and affiliated distilleries. And Chen Wenqiang also set aside a place for overseas Chinese businessmen who wanted to develop reclamation, that is, Qiongzhou and the islands of Xisha and Dongsha. There are no restrictions on what kind of crops can be grown.

Chen Wenqiang's preparation is sufficient, not only agricultural experts, but also industrial and commercial experts to provide project consulting and technical services. His confidant Lu Yaozong was in charge as the assistant of Quanye Dao, so that Chen Wenqiang's energy could be liberated.

Over the next two days. Accompanied by Lu Yaozong and others, Chen Wenqiang met with overseas Chinese businessmen in batches according to their regions, gave more detailed explanations on the policies and measures for attracting investment, and made use of his authority to provide them with as much convenience as possible at the request of overseas Chinese businessmen.

The winter in Guangdong is not as cold as in the north, but the cold shade is unbearable for the northerners.

Five hundred elite soldiers lined up neatly, and the leading officer He Sui accompanied Chen Wenqiang to watch the soldiers' drills, with a smug look on his face.

In preparation for the war against Macao and Portugal, Wu Luzhen sent this support force at the request of Chen Wenqiang. Not only is it well-equipped, but it is also trained in Qiongzhou, which is very reliable.

"Bing is good." Chen Wenqiang said lightly: "First send a small number of personnel to the roundabout to reconnoiter the terrain, if Macao and Portugal want to use force to solve the demarcation problem, Coloane Island must be the first place to fight." ”

He Sui thought for a while, bowed slightly and asked, "Dare to ask Lord Chen, why don't you land on the island with all the troops and force Macao and Portugal to act rashly?" ”

Chen Wenqiang pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a sneer: "If this official wants to lure Macao and Portugal to use force, do you believe it?" The long-term delay in the demarcation of Macao's borders will be a disaster sooner or later. The force is limited, there are more important things to do, and this officer does not want to be stationed for a long time. ”

He Sui hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "If there is a war with Macao and Portugal, how should his subordinates command, and what should be the degree of battle?" ”

Hmph, Chen Wenqiang glanced at He Sui, and reprimanded unhappily: "Some questions, it can be seen that you are not a qualified soldier." Shouldn't war be about doing everything possible to destroy the enemy and win the victory? It's ridiculous to also control the level of fighting. On the battlefield of life and death, hesitation and hesitation mean defeat, and it means that soldiers have to pay for unnecessary casualties, is this what a commander should do? Once the war starts, it will be like a fierce lion fighting a rabbit, and he will do his best, that is the duty of a qualified soldier, and it is the blood of a soldier. Before you get the order to go up, you just have to rush and fight, and other aspects are not things you should consider. ”

He Sui's face turned red, he thought it was cautious, but he was reprimanded by Chen Wenqiang, which was reasonable and well-founded, but he was not allowed to refute it.

"It's a mistake to be humble, please forgive Master Chen." He Sui put away the arrogance in his heart and his contempt for Chen Wenqiang, and bowed respectfully, "As long as the lord gives an order, he will personally lead the soldiers to fight with all his might, and he will never stop until he completely destroys the enemy." ”

"A soldier should be eager for war, eager to drink the blood of the enemy, and looking ahead is not the character that a soldier should have." Chen Wenqiang slowed down his tone slightly, but his words were still very heavy, "Especially to resist foreign insults, we should regard death as home, and regard sacrificing our lives for the country as the most honorable responsibility." ”

"Humble, taught." He Sui raised his head this time and solemnly saluted the military.

Chen Wenqiang nodded slightly, plus the armed police, the infantry fighting should be enough, and the following is how to command Li Zhun's sailors.
