"What? How much do you want? Guo Meng, including Jiang Haidong and others, were stunned by Qiao Youhua's words.

"Commander, is it really fake? How much do you want? Guo Meng didn't know, so he asked with a slight frown.

"Of course it's true, let me ask you, how many silver dollars will it cost to build the fortifications of Magou Town and Erdaogou?" Qiao Youhua took a long time, and asked calmly, no way, if you have money, you can talk magnificently, and all the money you use is still British, which makes people feel more comfortable.

Guo Meng made a rough calculation and said: "According to the expenses of Luquan County during this time, it should be at least about 100,000 silver dollars, after all, the materials we can use now are almost used, and if we want to build fortifications, we must mobilize the people of the county to go to the second town, which will cost a lot of money."

And there is not much food, but fortunately, the autumn harvest is approaching, and this problem is not too prominent. ”

Guo Meng said these are all things, Qiao Youhua understands that war is originally about consumption, and fighting any battle will cost countless manpower, material and financial resources, in terms of building fortifications, even if the people are willing to help for free, but tens of thousands of people have to eat and drink.

One person has one mouth, and he does heavy body work, and he has to eat and drink a lot, and these have to be counted according to the money.

In fact, what Guo Meng said is that these are all numbers after careful calculation, and they have been said less.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Youhua directly waved his big hand and said: "I will give you a million oceans, and you must operate the two important peripheral defense support points of Magou and Erdaogouzi in the shortest possible time." In addition, give me another way to recruit two thousand. ”

"What? A million oceans? Except that Jiang Haidong and Ma Biao glanced at each other, as if they had thought of something, Guo Meng, Sun Dahai and others were taken aback when they heard this.

"That's right, it's a million oceans, it can be transported in half a month at the latest, all in all, now that our Dragon's Tooth Task Force is not short of money, you can relax, you should repair fortifications, you should recruit new recruits for me, before the autumn harvest, our strength must be doubled again, which is enough to resist the possible attack of the Japanese army in the future." Qiao Youhua swore by it.

Seeing that Qiao Youhua was not joking, everyone was overjoyed, and they all got up and agreed.

Only Guo Meng's beautiful face was full of confusion, but because everyone was there, he didn't have to ask Qiao Youhua anything.

It wasn't until everyone was doing their jobs and taking orders to leave that Guo Meng asked Qiao Youhua: "Can you sue me where did you get so much money?" Got it in Tianjin? ”

Qiao Youhua didn't plan to hide Guo Meng, after all, she was a political commissar, this was to conceal it at all, and besides, there would be more cooperation between herself and the Western powers in the future, so she could hide it today, and she couldn't hide it in the future, but fortunately, she confessed to her in advance, which also made her mentally prepared.

So, Qiao Youhua designed the tank drawings and sold them to the British from beginning to end, of course, how much money did the British make, Qiao Youhua didn't tell the truth like Guo Meng for the time being, lest she be too excited, couldn't bear it, and was not good for the injury.

After listening, Guo Meng was very surprised and looked Qiao Youhua up and down and said, "You can even design something as high-tech as a tank?" ”

Qiao Youhua said proudly: "Of course, don't you know that I'm a genius? ”

Although Qiao Youhua did not explain how he could draw tank drawings and whether the drawings were real, Guo Meng did not get too to the bottom of it, because in her opinion, Qiao Youhua was willing to say so much to herself, which was her respect and trust in herself.

And as long as you can get money from the British, even if Qiao Youhua paints a turtle, it doesn't matter so much.

…………

With Qiao Youhua's guaranteed financial support, in the next few days, Guo Meng and Jiang Haidong immediately began to prepare for the construction of underground fortifications in Erdaogouzi and Magou Town.

In the early stage, four or five thousand people each had quietly arrived at Erdaogouzi and Magou under the cover of the troops of the first and second battalions, and in order to hide people's eyes, they went at night, and then began excavation operations in the almost empty houses and courtyards of the town.

They are very cautious, and even if the devils send out reconnaissance planes, it will be difficult to find anything in the high altitude, unless they fly at low altitudes, but at this stage, the Luquan and Feiyunling areas are dangerous areas in the eyes of the devils, and the Japanese planes do not dare to risk low-altitude reconnaissance.

Ten days later, contrary to Qiao Youhua's expectations, Hu Ling'er and Wan Hu quietly rushed to Hengshui with 10 million pounds sterling into gold, and then went ashore towards Luquan, and sent Xiao Wu to inform in advance, just in case, please Qiao Youhua must send troops to answer and assist them in the Guò Japanese war zone.

After Qiao Youhua got the news, he immediately ordered Zheng Yunshan and Liu Jianhua to lead the elite reconnaissance company and guard company of the whole regiment to rush to respond, and under the response of more than 400 dragon tooth elites, they crossed the Zhengtai Railway without danger and arrived safely in Luquan County.

Qiao Youhua got the news, and immediately took Guo Meng out of the city, and met Wan Hu and others outside the city, just in case, Qiao Youhua did not let them enter the city, but directly by the reconnaissance company, the guard company took this batch of gold to Feiyunling.

The gold worth hundreds of millions of silver dollars must be put away, and Luquan County is a place that may become a war area in the future, so it is naturally not suitable for storage.

On the way, Wan Hu whispered to Qiao Youhua: "Billy Lavis is very trustworthy, within three days after you left, he raised money, all the size of the yellow croaker, I estimated, this batch of gold is worth at least 120 million silver dollars, and now, a lot of them have been sent to you." ”

Qiao Youhua was overjoyed when he heard this, patted Wan Hu's shoulder and said, "Thank you so much Brother Wan, you have worked hard all the way, and I will ask you to hand over the gold of one million silver dollars to you." ”

Wan Hu immediately refused: "What are you talking about, how can I really ask Brother Qiao for your money, besides, your money is all for fighting devils to fight against Japan." ”

Qiao Youhua raised his hand and said: "Brother Wan, you don't have to be so polite with me, I know that you also need money to maintain this smuggling route along the way in Tianjin, and with this million, you can develop better, there are still many opportunities for cooperation in the future, and there are still things that need your help."

So you have to accept this money, and it can be regarded as joining hands with us to fight against Japan. "120 million, if you are not willing to take out 1 million, then Qiao Youhua should no longer expect the line of Wanhu to serve him.

Wan Hu may not say anything, but it is difficult to guarantee that his men have no thoughts, although they do not know that they are transporting priceless gold.

However, sometimes, you must be generous, eat meat yourself, don't you let others drink some soup?
