Zhang Xiaocheng laughed, and as An Yi stepped inside, Zhang Tianyi and Yin Jinan, the two brothers, were left behind and talked in a low voice.

The four of them came to the banyan tree in front of the company department, and saw a plate of braised fish, a plate of pot meat, a plate of vegetarian vegetables and a clear soup on the table, Zhang Tianyi asked Yin Jinan in surprise if he was sure that he was coming today? Yin Jinan proudly pointed to the dozen or so tables of the soldiers in the canteen, and said that this meal at noon every day is relatively rich, otherwise it will be difficult to supplement the physical exertion of the officers and soldiers. In addition to the drinks, the officers and soldiers are treated the same, regardless of each other, and you will add a little weight to our table today.

After hearing this, Zhang Tianyi turned around and went to inspect, and when he came back, he sighed, knowing that An Yi and Yin Jinan would abide by the promise they made when they were in the military academy, share weal and woe with their brothers, and would not withhold military salaries.

An Yi poured one-fifth of the wine into the marching cup in front of the two guests, and Yin Jinan also poured it for the three of them, and laughed in unison after touching three glasses in a row, everything was casual.

Zhang Xiaocheng was full of praise for the taste of the dish and asked An Yi where he got the cook? An Yi said that if it weren't for the two brothers with the best skills who were forcibly taken away by their chief of staff, today's dish would be more authentic, which surprised Zhang Xiaocheng and Zhang Tianyi, and sighed at the good fortune of An Yi and the others.

Halfway through the meal, Zhang Tianyi saw that An Yi was still toasting with interest and enthusiasm, and scolded the little fox a few words in his heart, and had to squeeze out a smile to explain his intentions:

"Xiao Yi, we lost the competition that day, and after the brothers went back, they pondered it carefully, and they all had no resentment, but there was one thing I wanted to understand clearly - when I arrived at your position, everyone put away the strange folding shovel, and I was embarrassed to ask for it, and when the generals finished reviewing and leaving, I stayed behind to carefully examine your excavation traces, and then I knew that your shovel was infinitely powerful. When I think of seeing you chopping trees with shovels from afar, I know that your tools must be much better than ours. After I went back, I truthfully reflected my thoughts to my superiors, and after the teacher learned about it, he attached great importance to it, so he ordered me and Brother Zhang to come over to learn from the experience, hoping that Xiao Yi would not hide your secrets, and let my brother open his eyes. ”

An Yi turned around and walked to a row of barracks to bring a sapper shovel, and truthfully introduced the manufacturing process, function and use experience of this new product, which made the two brothers amazed and grateful.

Especially Zhang Xiaocheng, he never imagined that An Yi would be so generous and unselfish, his good impression of An Yi increased rapidly, and a pair of shrewd eyes also showed sparkling brilliance.

"Xiao Yi, although this shovel is expensive, I still want to buy a batch of companies equipped with Tianyi to try the effect. Maybe you don't know, our division has studied the tactics of engineers very much, and attaches importance to the synergistic and auxiliary role of engineers, so our division directly engineer battalion has always been the best in our Hunan army, otherwise there would not be this competition. ”

Zhang Xiaocheng sighed, and then lowered his voice: "Just now I noticed the hesitation in Xiao Yi's eyes flashed, I don't know what Xiao Yi thinks?" Are you worried about our limited financial resources or a problem with our supply? ”

An Yi admired the elegant and shrewd Zhang Xiaocheng, and was secretly vigilant, but he still told his thoughts truthfully:

"Brother Zhang is really extraordinary, and the little brother's mind is broken by you at one point. As the elder brother said, the younger brother was worried about whether the elder brother was willing to buy such an expensive shovel, and the only one hundred and twenty in the younger brother's camp were all generously donated by Mr. Ou Yaoting, a patriotic wealthy businessman, which gave the younger brother his speculative work. ”

"It's okay, money isn't an issue."

Zhang Xiaocheng smiled calmly: "Although all the armies of our revolutionary army are taboo to talk about the main source of military funds, I know that these things can't be hidden from you, such as the Yunnan Army, eighty percent of the military salary comes from tobacco smuggling, the Guangdong Army's income in protecting smuggling and selling smuggling is as high as sixty percent of the total income, and the tobacco and soil business between the newly formed Seventh Army Gui Army and the Guizhou military has never been interrupted, otherwise how can a Seventh Army be dispatched north to Xiaoxiang, and the family can still afford a complete rear Seventh Army?" Our Hunan army benefited from the geographical advantages it currently occupies, and was able to obtain more than 200,000 taps every month from the tobacco and soil traders who passed through the three defense areas, so the use was still relatively generous; although after Minister Song Ziwen implemented the unified fiscal and taxation policy of the central government, the local tax collection rights of the various armies were completely lost, but due to the central government's subsidies and the attitude of turning a blind eye, the revenues of the various armies did not decrease significantly, so we were barely able to renew ourselves and make appropriate supplements. At present, the Northern Expedition is imminent, and all armies are in full swing to purchase equipment, and our Hunan army is naturally not far behind! ”

An Yi was calm on the surface, but he was overjoyed in his heart, and secretly decided to hold the God of Wealth sent to the door tightly in his hands, relying on the advantageous relationship between himself and the "Lu Lin" foreign company and Ou Yaoting, not only to open up the sales of ordnance and military products, but also to make Ah Biao's Jianghu group grow rapidly through cooperation. Ah Biao knew a lot of tobacco dealers, and as long as he worked diligently and had the courage to open up under the planning of the old way, his goal of making money would not be difficult to achieve -- no matter what, if he wanted to soar, it would be extremely difficult for him to have a stable rear that would continue to provide financial resources.

So, An Yi ordered to remove the banquet and move to the cabin, and put his advantages and some ideas for making a fortune one by one, and the two were dumbfounded when they heard it, and their hearts were like cats.

Zhang Tianyi had never heard An Yi talk about business before, and now he only felt that he was far beyond his reach in comparison, and the little thoughts that were originally unconvinced in his heart also disappeared in the shining wisdom that An Yi talked about, and his heart was not only admired but admired.

What made Zhang Tianyi even more grateful was that under An Yi's instructions, Yin Jinan gave Zhang Tianyi a copy of the new military training methods and various data summarized by himself, as well as some difficult experiences and thoughts.

This incomparably sincere and generous gesture, filled with the kind of intimate friendship between fellow brothers, deeply touched Zhang Xiaocheng on the side, he did not hesitate to tell An Yi: I have great admiration for your character and resourcefulness brother, and I see the bright prospects of cooperation with each other, and I am willing to treat each other as brothers in the future, sincerely work together and cooperate closely, and there will never be a little bullying or wavering!

An Yi didn't say anything after listening to the second word, and immediately went out to call the friendly and accommodating Camp Chief Kuang to ask for leave, came back with a beard and led the two Zhang, strode out of the camp, and went straight to the foreign bank in the Shamian Concession.
