Chapter 41: First Contact with American Imperialism
It's late.
Nanjing, resting house.
Before coming, Cheng Gong guessed that there would definitely be outsiders in Lao Jiang's mansion, so he deliberately delayed the time until almost twelve o'clock before taking a UH-1 armed utility helicopter to rush over. I never thought that even if it was so late, the ambassador of the US Embassy in Nanjing, Jensen, still stayed in the rest house and did not leave.
This has already been taken care of, and of course Cheng Gong can't turn around and leave so rudely.
"General Cheng, you are so young!" Jensen, who had neatly combed silver hair, shook hands with Cheng Gong and gave Cheng Gong a thumbs up with deep emotion and praised: "You can take the supreme command of the PLAN Pacific Fleet at such a young age, and the land of China is really full of outstanding people!" THE KIND OF AMPHIBIOUS TANK YOU DEVELOPED AND MANUFACTURED, AS WELL AS THE 155MM SELF-PROPELLED GUN, REALLY OPENED THE EYES OF OUR ENGINEERS AND INCREASED THEIR KNOWLEDGE!
I have had many special discussions with engineers from China on the two types of heavy army equipment developed by your army. I have to say that in the study of tanks and self-propelled guns, your PLAN is really ingenious. This also fully proves that you Chinese people have never lacked talent! As a sincere friend of the National Government, on behalf of the United States of America, I hope to establish a long-term, stable and friendly cooperative relationship with PLAN! I don't know what General Cheng thinks? ”
Regarding the direct way of the US Ambassador Plenipotentiary Extraordinary to the Republic of China in front of him, Cheng Gong laughed and said: "Ambassador Jensen, we have something to discuss, wait for me to drink saliva to quench my thirst and then say no." I've been so busy for the past two days that I'm almost dizzy, and my memory is much worse. ”
After finishing speaking, Cheng Gong teased at Mrs. Jiang: "My dear beautiful sister-in-law, can you reward my little brother with a cup of tea!" I rushed here in a hurry, and my throat and eyes were about to smoke. ”
How could Mrs. Jiang not see that Cheng Gong was deliberately looking at it to the left to divert Jensen's topic, so she glanced at Cheng Gong angrily, picked up the cup of West Lake Longjing in front of her that she had drunk a small sip of, walked over and handed it to Cheng Gong, and said angrily: "Drink, beware of choking you to death!" ”
Cheng Gong didn't say politely to Mrs. Jiang, he took it casually and raised his head and drank a fine light, and then returned the bar and chirped a few times, and praised it very comfortably: "Good tea, very good to the Longjing before the rain, quack, the little brother is very happy today." ”
"You are a cow chewing peonies, how can anyone drink tea like you!" As if she suddenly realized something, Madame Jiang quickly reached out and snatched the empty teacup from Cheng Gong's hand as she spoke, and two red clouds flew up on her face for no reason.
"Ahem!"
Seeing that Cheng Gong was teasing his wife in front of him, Lao Jiang was of course unhappy, so he coughed twice.
"I said, Brother Jin Chengxian, didn't you say that you would come over at night? How did you get it until now, you see, I waited at home for almost the whole night. Lao Jiang's tone was obviously complaining.
"Big brother forgives sins, big brother forgives sins."
Although Cheng Gong said this, there was no sincerity on his face, and he said with a smile: "Big brother is in a high position, there must be a lot of business, even if he arrives home at night, he has a lot of official business to deal with, so I didn't dare to come over early to disturb." Besides, I have a lot of big and small things on hand, no, I haven't signed even half of the documents that need to be signed on my desk before I come! ”
You little red guy has a fart file sign! It's not like fooling around with a female secretary in the office!
Obviously, the little thing that happened between Cheng Gong and Zhao Yajing reached Lao Jiang's ears.
Lao Jiang secretly scolded in his heart, but asked quietly on his face: "Jin Cheng, what kind of documents are you busy issuing for?" ”
"Of course, it's a payment!"
Cheng Gong looked very depressed and said: "Our PLAN once owed the Romanov consortium a big favor before, but they are now sending someone to me, saying that they plan to build a super-large modern military production center on Shuguang Island, involving the manufacture of guns, ammunition, artillery, tanks, ships, aircraft and other conventional weapons." So you want to borrow some money from me. I had no choice but to lend them 250 tons of gold first. ”
"Porphyry!"
Lao Jiang had just drunk the sip of tea in his mouth before he could swallow it, and he was immediately stimulated by Cheng Gong's best sentence.
! You Cheng Jincheng is really rich! That's 250 tons of gold! Why don't you lend me some gold and flowers!
"Cake seller!" At this time, Mrs. Jiang also exclaimed in a lost voice on the side: "Two hundred and fifty tons of gold, Jincheng, what kind of favor, it is worth spending so much gold on you to pay back!" ”
"Hehe, my little brother is so poor that he has gold left." Cheng Gong smiled proudly: "I'm most afraid of owing favors to others, but any problem that can be solved with gold is not a problem in my eyes!" ”
"Then how about you also borrow a little gold from my eldest brother to solve the urgent needs of the national government?" Lao Jiang followed Cheng Gong's words and made a request at the right time.
Cheng Gong's two eyes kept turning, looking at Lao Jiang, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" How much does it cost? ”
was asking, but Cheng Gong was muttering in his heart, it seems that buddy helped you Lao Jiang curb the pace of the war of the little devil's invasion of China, and the tragedy of the bursting of the Yellow River Huayuankou that was about to happen is impossible to happen again. And this year, the country is also smooth, there are no major natural disasters, why do you want to borrow money? Is it that he plans to raise money to suppress the CCP?
"There are unrest in the country, social instability, warlords in various places are divided, and they do not listen to propaganda, although I am the chairman of the Supreme Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, my decrees are basically useless when they go out of Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
Lao Jiang was not afraid of Cheng Gong's jokes, and sighed very distressedly: "If you can't play a game of chess in the world, and you can't implement a political party, an army, and a leader, how can the government accumulate the resources of the whole country to build and develop industry!" Now that the external enemy has been appeased, of course, we must eliminate the internal troubles! ”
Roll the calves! Brother knows that you Jiang should be damned, and he thinks about the shitty matter of suppressing bandits and exterminating the CCP all day long!
Cheng Gong scolded secretly, his head shook like a rattle, and Zhengse said: "Big brother, you can't hurt me!" The 'River Crab' organization has repeatedly warned me that the PLAN Pacific Fleet must not meddle in domestic affairs, otherwise, my little brother will have no bones! ”
Jensen, the American ambassador who had been sitting on the sidelines smiling silently, suddenly moved his eyes slightly.
Could it be that in addition to a mysterious PLAN organization, there is also a hidden deeper and more powerful "river crab" organization?
Listening to the meaning of what Commander Cheng of the PLAN Pacific Fleet said just now, this more mysterious "River Crab" organization seems to be even more powerful than their PLAN, otherwise, this young commander-in-chief would not be so jealous of this mysterious "River Crab" organization!
PLAN can't meddle in China's domestic affairs, which is a very good strategic intelligence!
At this time, Cheng Gong's gaze swept over Jensen's face intentionally or unintentionally, and the change in the eyes of the American ambassador naturally failed to escape Cheng Gong's covert attention.
