The weather was cloudy, with occasional sunlight and a musty smell in the air. It rained for days, like a pot lid pressing on the top to make people breathless. The rain finally stopped, and a different scenery appeared in the streets and alleys of Chongqing, where every household was drying bedding. The humidity in the air is very high, and the bedding in every family is damp, and the taste of covering the body is how uncomfortable and uncomfortable it is. Therefore, every household takes advantage of the precious sunlight to dry the bedding. Rare good weather, Ouyang Jian and his wife Mei Fang strolled through the streets of Chongqing.

After Ouyang Jian returned from inspecting the southern Hunan defense line, he held meetings continuously, summed up experience, and became relatively idle after a few days of busyness. Due to the end of the war, the work of the Second Intelligence Department was relatively reduced, so Mei Fang gave herself a few days off. Since Ouyang Jian and his wife came to Chongqing, this is the first time they have visited the streets in more than two months. The two were dressed in casual clothes, dressed as gentlemen and Mrs. Kuo. Gong Nan and several guards were also dressed in civilian clothes and followed from a distance. At present, Chongqing is the accompanying capital, and the people who have migrated and fled from all over the country have swelled the population of this mountain city several times.

The explosion of population did not leave the city with a shortage of food. A few years ago, Ouyang Jian persuaded Liu Xiang to prepare in advance, and his invisible ghost hand played a role. At that time, Ouyang Jian asked Liu Xiang to vigorously develop agriculture in the Chengdu Plain, and the grain produced by Jiangxi was responsible for the purchase. As a result, agriculture in the Chengdu Plain has developed greatly. Now the grain produced in the Chengdu Plain has begun to supply Chongqing. The food supply is abundant, which has stabilized prices very well. Due to Chongqing's huge consumption capacity, it has also led to the development of other related industries.

At present, the Nationalist Government has referred to Jiangxi's experience and has begun to engage in large-scale breeding in the vicinity of Chongqing, large-scale chicken farms and pig farms have begun to appear, the wartime economy has begun to play a role, and the country of abundance, which is blessed with abundance, has also entered a stage of rapid development. At the moment the National Government is in a difficult situation, mainly in the political and military spheres. On the contrary, Jiangxi is a single flower, and its industrial manufacturing capacity soon makes up for the supply of industrial products in the coastal zone.

At present, the light industrial products produced in Jiangxi have begun to radiate Sichuan on a large scale. In particular, the daily necessities closely related to the people have continuously entered Sichuan and Hunan. After several years of development, the textile industry in the western Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningbo regions has sprung up with the pace of the war, and its light textile products have been continuously exported to Sichuan through the Qinling Mountains, which has well met the needs of the people.

The streets are full of pedestrians, and it seems that the atmosphere of war is not visible. The husband and wife passed by a cloth village and paused, only to see the signboard in front of the cloth village saying that the store has newly arrived in Yan'an blended fabrics. Good quality at a good price.

"Ouyang, now the fabric produced in Yan'an has become the signature of Sichuan, it is really unbelievable." Mei Fang admired. "Since the Japanese occupation of Shanghai, the trade routes from Shanghai to the mainland have been cut off. It has invisibly given the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border region the opportunity for rapid development. In the past few years, the looms have been put into production, and the fabrics produced by them have quickly occupied the markets of Sichuan, Hubei, Yunnan and other markets, and have formed a scale in just two years. As far as I know, the three newly built textile factories in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Region are about to be put into operation, and in a few years, the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Region will form a light textile base. ”

"Once the textile base is formed, it will drive the development of other related industries, and even the development of heavy industry in Northwest China. At present, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Industrial Group has built a power plant in Lanzhou and has accumulated experience. In the next step, the Northwest Industrial Group will build heavy industry based on Lanzhou, and Lanzhou will become the largest industrial city in Northwest China under the role of war in the future. In the next step, many of our important factories will be laid out in Lanzhou, which is our long-term plan. Especially the role of the Western Railway, Lanzhou will soon become an important transportation hub. ”

In fact, Ouyang Jian let Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningbo Industrial Group develop in Lanzhou, the core purpose is the atomic energy industry, and the research, experimentation and manufacturing of atomic energy will be carried out in Lanzhou in the future. In addition, Jiangxi and Lanzhou, one south and one north, should form a corresponding trend, and after the war is over, a pattern of great development should be quickly formed. With the exploitation of Yumen oil, a petroleum research institute has been established in Lanzhou, and a medium-sized oil refinery has been erected. While developing petroleum synthetic products, a large number of professionals are trained. Petroleum products as a new type of industry, after the war, Ouyang Jian wanted to make China's oil industry soar.

"Ouyang, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng won't be looking for trouble!" Mei Fang was a little worried. "This world follows the law of the deep forest, and if you are strong, you will gain trust and respect. Yang Hucheng basically holds our position, and Zhang Xueliang is also changing at the moment. I believe that as we become stronger and stronger, it is only a matter of time before Zhang Xueliang stands on our side, and we are very confident in this, so we have the conditions for our long-term layout in the northwest. ”

"You lobbied Lao Jiang to continue to lay railways in Dihua, Xinjiang, not just to get outside aid!" Mei Fang has a keen sense of smell. Ouyang Jian smiled and disguised: "You are very shrewd, and you do have a more distant strategic layout. Today is a rare day of sunshine, so we will not talk about this topic. The husband and wife left Buzhuang and were greeted by a caravan of horse-drawn carts. Once again, the husband and wife paused, drawn to the huge horse-drawn caravan. "Ouyang, the carriage is a little weird, it seems to be coal" Mei Fang was surprised.

Ouyang Jian said with a cool expression: "This is the coal transportation convoy of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Area Business Group, which is from the Divine Valley. You see, the shiny coal is like black gold, and the calorific value of this coal is more than 7,000 kcal, and there is almost no cinder after burning. At present, important military factories in Chongqing burn this coal. The Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo coal transport team is even more distinctive, you see that each carriage is 4 wheels, the front two wheels and the upper part is a turntable, which is convenient for turning left and right. The carriage was lengthened with a three-horse carriage and could carry 5 tons of cargo. ”

Ouyang Jian continued: "In order to make the carriage light, the rubber pneumatic tires produced in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border area have obvious effects, and the axle adopts bearings, which can make the carriage travel 80 kilometers a day. At present, the large fleet of Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Commerce and Trade Group basically carries the transportation of materials from the north and the south, and has played a huge role in the circulation of trade between the north and the south. "I didn't expect the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Region to develop so well, I really want to see where I have time!" Mei Fang's face showed fascination.

"Sir, ma'am! Please buy a rose," said a thin little girl, carrying a bamboo basket in her arm, holding a bright rose in her hand, timidly selling, with a look of anticipation in her eyes. Mei Fang looked at the little girl's lacklustre face and felt pity. "Little girl, I want this basket of flowers, how much is it?" "10 copper plates!" Mei Fang did not hesitate to take out 100 fiat coins and handed it to the little girl, and reached out to take the basket. The little girl could hardly believe her eyes, "Thank you, ma'am, sir!" ”

Looking at the figure of the little girl running away, Mei Fang said faintly: "Such a child is at the age of going to school, but now he is working for a living, and the war has made the lives of the people even more miserable!" "Madam, this kind of suffering is staged every day, and we have to settle this account on the head of Japanese militarism, and sooner or later we will have to settle accounts with the Japanese bandits." Ouyang Jian's face was solemn and indignant. "Ouyang, from tomorrow onwards, I will ask the guards to come here every day to buy the little girl's roses, I want to help her!" "I have no opinion!"

Probably Mei Fang made a decision for herself to do a good deed, and her mood began to improve, and a trace of gloom disappeared. "Ouyang, I haven't bought anything for a long time, how about you accompany me to shop?" "Wow! As long as the lady is happy, I will accompany me to the end! Suddenly, a shrill siren sounded, and pedestrians on the road rushed into the nearest bomb shelter, and in the blink of an eye, the road was empty. Recently, there has been a sudden increase in air defense performances, indicating that the Japanese army will bomb Chongqing at any time. Ten minutes later, Ouyang Jian and his wife came out of the bomb shelter and returned to the street.

Looking at the crowd coming out of the air-raid shelter, Ouyang Jian sighed with emotion: "The air raid started half a month ago, and the people didn't take it seriously at all. Many people listened to the harsh sirens and turned a deaf ear to what they should do. Later, the government came up with a way to dispatch a large number of military and police officers to impose fines on civilians who did not participate in the exercise. This trick is very clever, and now as soon as the alarm sounds, the people on the street will run to the bomb shelter. "Ouyang, didn't you come up with the trick of the fine!" "You say that!"

Mei Fang continued: "Your tricks are a little damaged, but they are practical. Recently, our radio station has been monitoring the Japanese army's transfer of bomber groups to Wuhan, which will soon bomb Chongqing. "The Japanese army's offensive on the southern Hunan defense line was blocked, so it was natural to retaliate on a large scale, which was the usual tactic of the Japanese army. At present, the antiaircraft artillery units are on full standby and are guarding against important military installations. However, the people in Chongqing are afraid that they will suffer, and a large number of buildings in the city will be burned down, and we can only accept this loss, and there is no way to do it. ”

At this time, a military jeep roared up. "It's a car of the Ministry of Defense, and we can't do without the sight of the military commander wherever we are." Mei Fang was visibly unhappy. "You and I are in vain today's vacation!" Ouyang Jian shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

In the afternoon of Ouyang Jian's residence, two black cars and a military truck were parked outside the door, and the trucks were full of soldiers with guns and loaded ammunition. In the house, Mei Fang packed her husband's belongings, and the suitcase was full of a change of clothes. "The Ministry of Defense asked you to go to the 4th theater to supervise the battle, it seems that the Japanese army is going to do it in the south!" Mei Fang muttered as she cleaned up.

"This is to be expected, and it is estimated that your second intelligence department will also be busy. There's no way it's that the little devil won't let you and me stop. "Pay attention to your body when you're out there alone, don't worry me!" "You have to pay attention to your body, too! Remember to get a good night's sleep or you'll get old. Mei Fang was a little sad, stopped what she was doing, and stepped forward to hug her husband.
