Chapter 181 Military Intelligence Bureau, Military Defense Bureau
In the corner of the factory, the middle management of several arsenals was surrounding a middle-aged man in a suit. "Assistant Hong, I need to mention this matter to the governor more..."
Looking at the worried looks of several people, Assistant Hong nodded. "Don't worry, the important surname governor of this matter is also very clear."
Hearing so much about Assistant Hong, the worry on the faces of several people dissipated somewhat, and after several people dispersed, Assistant Hong hurriedly walked towards the superintendent's office.
At this time, a worker came over with a box of parts, and Assistant Hong couldn't dodge it and collided with the worker, but after getting up from the ground, Assistant Hong just patted the dust on his body and threw down a sentence. "Be careful next time."
"Strange, why didn't Assistant Hong scold people today?" Looking at Assistant Hong, who was behaving abnormally, the worker who was still sitting on the ground wondered. But it was a good thing that they didn't get scolded much, so after cleaning up the parts scattered all over the place, the workers left.
When Assistant Hong walked into the superintendent's office, he happened to bump into the picture of Yang Kai repeatedly saying "yes" into the microphone.
After Yang Kai hung up the microphone, he looked at Assistant Hong who walked in and hurriedly said. "Quick, go and call Lao Liu to me."
Although Assistant Hong also has some things to say to Yang Kai, looking at Yang Kai's appearance, Assistant Hong can only swallow things. As for who Lao Liu is? The whole factory can be called Lao Liu by Yang Kai, so Assistant Hong doesn't need to ask.
After Assistant Hong left, Yang Kai took out a suit worth 100 silver dollars from the closet.
Just when Yang Kai was putting on his suit and hurriedly tying his tie there, Liu Huixue and Assistant Hong walked into the office.
"Superintendent, do you have something to ask me for?"
After arranging the collar and tie, Yang Kai said to Liu Hui. "Lao Liu, the governor just called me to come over, you hurry up and sort out the factory's production capacity information, I may use it later."
"Understood."
After Liu Huixue left the office, Assistant Hong hurriedly walked to Yang Kai's side. "Governor, should you take this opportunity to mention that matter to the Governor as well?" Saying that, Assistant Hong whispered in Yang Kai's ear. "Those guys just looked for me..."
"Those people..."Yang Kai frowned, he didn't need Assistant Hong to say more, he knew which ones. Didn't I tell them not to worry..."
Assistant Hong smiled bitterly. "But in this situation, how could they not be in a hurry..."
Thinking about the current situation in the factory, Yang Kai shook his head. "It depends, if I have the chance, I will bring it up to the Governor."
At this moment, Liu Huixue suddenly pushed open the door and walked in, and saw that Liu Huixue was back, and Yang Kai and Assistant Hong also hurriedly separated.
Glancing at the two of them with some confusion, Liu Huixue put a stack of materials on the desk, "Supervisor, these are the recent production capacity data of the factory." ”
"Okay, I'll try to memorize everything on the road, Lao Liu, the factory will be handed over to you first." Three days ago, Liu Huixue was promoted to deputy governor of the arsenal because of his meritorious work in imitating the Mauser rifle, so Liu Huixue was the rightful second-in-command when Yang Kai was away.
Hearing Yang Kai say this, Liu Huixue also nodded hurriedly. "Okay, don't worry."
After taking the information and nodding at Liu Huixue, Yang Kai walked out alone, leaving only Liu Huixue and Assistant Hong in the office.
Looking at Liu Huixue, who was still wearing a shabby factory uniform, Assistant Hong stretched out his right hand after raising his eyebrows and smiling. "A few days ago, I have been accompanying the superintendent around, and I haven't congratulated the deputy superintendent on his promotion, and the deputy superintendent will have to take care of it in the future..."
"Where, where..." Liu Hui learned that she hadn't adapted to her identity yet, and quickly shook it when she saw the outstretched hand.
However, although Liu Huixue is somewhat dull, this does not mean that he is stupid, he can clearly see Assistant Hong's arrogant appearance in the factory, so although he accepts Assistant Hong's kindness, his goodwill has not improved at all.
As for Assistant Hong?
Looking at the lube on his hands, Assistant Hong retracted his hand with disgust.
Just when the two of them were still chatting in the office, Yang Kai had already gotten into the carriage and headed in the direction of the Governor's Mansion.
When the carriage drove into the city, looking at the busy workers on both sides of the road, as well as the buildings that already had some rudimentary shapes, Yang Kai, who was flipping through the materials, said with annoyance. "If I had known this, I wouldn't have bought so much land in the first place..."
The profession of real estate dealer has been around since ancient times, especially after the emergence of several new streets, some wealthy businessmen have even funded the purchase of shops and houses on both sides of the street, preparing to build some five-storey gray buildings here. Later, some businessmen joined in, and now half of Chengdu has become a construction site.
However, while these real estate developers have stimulated industries such as ash and glass, they have also brought a lot of side effects, such as rising land prices and housing prices. This is also the reason why Yang Kai regrets it. You must know that after being a supervisor for so many years, Yang Kai has made a lot of money. It's just that almost all of the money was later used by Yang Kai to buy fields, thousands of acres of good farmland, which is why Yang Kai regretted it, if all this money was used to buy houses and land in the city, Yang Kai's property at this time may have already doubled.
Just when Yang Kai was still regretting it in the carriage, the coachman outside the carriage shouted into the carriage. "Governor, the Governor's Mansion has arrived."
"Then let's stop." calmed down, and Yang Kai, who had memorized all the information, stepped out of the carriage.
Because of the incident of Kobayashi Hideko, the security of the Governor's Mansion is now much stricter than in the past, so even if almost all the guards in charge of the security recognize Yang Kai, Yang Kai does have documents, the guards still searched him, and waited until they were sure that he was not armed before letting a guard lead him into the Governor's Mansion.
"I'm sorry, Inspector Yang, it's just that the brothers have already failed in their duties once, so they don't want to be in dereliction of duty a second time."
Yang Kai had also heard of the fact that the Governor's Mansion had caught a spy, so when he heard the guards say this, Yang Kai hurriedly nodded. "Understandable, understandable."
Of course, there are indeed many people who know about catching a spy, but few people know about the fact that the spy is caught, at least, Yang Kai is not qualified to know.
Walking to the front and back of the office door, looking at Yang Kai and the guards leading the way, a guard guarding the door knocked on the door. "Governor, Governor Yang has arrived."
"Let him in." Through the wooden door, the sound of Yan Guang came from the office.
Pulling open the door, Yang Kai walked into the office.
"Yang Kai, you're here." Looking at Yang Kai who walked into the office, Yan Guang beckoned although his stomach was full of resentment. "Come on."
"Yes..."Yang Kai, who had already heard about the incident on the weapons test ground, said with a smile on his face. I don't know what happened to the Governor who had summoned him to his humble position. ”
"For the guns, of course." Saying that, Yan Guang glanced up at Yang Kai. "I just went to the weapons test site to try it, and although the workmanship is a little rougher, the gun itself is still good." Although he lost face in the weapon test field, Yan Guang also knew that the problem was himself, so he was not prepared to embarrass anyone in this matter.
Seeing that Yan Guang didn't seem to be ready to find trouble for himself, Yang Kai, who was relieved, hurriedly prepared to take a picture of his ass. "Thank you for the compliment, the lowly rank will do his best..."
"Alright, I don't need to say those words." After signaling Yang Kai to stop, Yan Guang continued. "I don't ask much else, how many copies of this new Mauser gun can you make in a day?"
"Is it a day...", this Yang Kai has been prepared for a long time. If you follow the normal speed, you can imitate about 20 rods a day, if you rush to work at night, you can imitate at least 50 rods, and the governor used the earliest batch in the experimental field, and the workers' techniques are not very skilled, if you can produce a few more batches, I believe that the workmanship will definitely not be inferior to the German original load..."The equipment of the arsenal and the equipment of the Mauser arsenal are the same, so Yang Kai is not afraid of blowing the cowhide himself.
"50?"
Seeing that Yan Guang was not very satisfied, Yang Kai said with a wry smile. "Governor, there are so many equipment in the arsenal, 50 strokes is really the limit." At the beginning, Zhang Shien and Qi Zuyi went to Germany to purchase equipment for all the expenses of only 600,000 yuan, and after deducting the part of the greedy ink, it is really conceivable how much can really be used to buy equipment...
"But..."
"But?" Hearing these two words, Yan Guang, who was still disappointed, raised his head.
"If the governor is willing to expand the scale of our factory, let alone produce 500 rods, even if it produces 1000 rods, it will never be a problem..."
Both Yang Kai and the other management of the arsenal knew very well that the completion of the Yucheng Arsenal was when the Sichuan Arsenal became an accessory. After all, whether it is the amount of money invested or the scale of the factory, the Sichuan Arsenal cannot be compared with the Yucheng Arsenal. In this case, Yang Kai naturally wants to fight for the opportunity to expand the arsenal, so that even if he can't establish the "first brother" status of the arsenal in Sichuan, at least he can be on an equal footing with the newly established Yucheng Arsenal.
It's just that Yan Guang obviously has his own ideas on this, so after listening to Yang Kai's proposal, Yan Guang was just silent for a moment and replied. "I'll think about it..."
"The Governor..."
"You go back first."
"Yes..."
After Yang Kai left with disappointment, Yue Chang, who had been standing in the corner without making a sound, spoke. "Governor, Governor Yang's proposal?"
"Yang Kai's proposal?" Yan Guang half-lay on the swivel chair and spun around. "That kind of proposal is simply not realistic."
"Unrealistic?"
"Of course it's not realistic, there are a few small coal mines around Chengdu, but there are no iron mines, and if you want to supply steel to the arsenal, you have to transport it from Qijiang, which is more than 300 kilometers away." Yan Guang gestured a little exaggerated at this distance. "More than 300 kilometers, is there a railway between Chengdu and Qijiang, does it have to be transported by mule and horse? Hanyang in Jangzhidong is a lesson from the past..."
In fact, even if there is a railway, Yan Guang is not ready to expand, because he has already considered the future of the Sichuan Arsenal, that is, to transfer the capable part of it to the Yucheng Arsenal, and the rest will either be dismissed or transferred to a position that is not very important, and finally pick out some to "kill a hundred people", such as Yang Kai...
"At the beginning, it was quite peaceful, but it didn't take long for a solid state to sprout, and there have been small movements all the time, if it weren't for the stability of the arsenal, I would have shot you a long time ago. Now you dare to ask me to expand with a shy face, and you really think that I don't know that almost all the management of the arsenal is connected with you? ”
――――――――――
"What about the Military Intelligence Directorate, the Military Defense Agency, referred to as the Military Intelligence Agency and the Military Defense Agency? I thought about these two names for a long time. Sitting on the swivel chair in the office, Yan Guang smiled at Wang Yaowu, Song Dinghan and others.
Although the name of the Military Intelligence Bureau is somewhat rotten, it is also a classic title after all, so Yan Guang can be considered at ease when he uses it. As for the Military Defense Agency? In fact, Yan Guang originally remembered the name of the National Security Bureau, but as for the abbreviation, of course it was the National Security Bureau. But think about it, if you come up with this name, it is likely that you will really be in trouble, and in the end, Yan Guang can only use the name of the Military Defense Bureau, no matter what, the abbreviation of the Military Defense Bureau is still relatively smooth...
"So, Governor, the heads of these two units?" Wen Jing asked with some curiosity.
And hearing Wen Jing ask, Wang Yaowu and Song Dinghan also looked over. After all, the examples of Jinyiwei and the East and West Factories are there, and as the high-level of the military and political axes, it is certainly impossible for them not to care about this kind of department with overlapping powers and factory guards.
However, hearing Wen Jing's question, Yan Guang just shook his head. "There is no principal yet..."
"No?"
"That's right." Yan Guang smiled bitterly. "Because there is no suitable candidate yet, I will be the head of the two departments at present." This is also a matter of no choice, after all, the powers of these two departments are too special, and the selection of the principal must also be cautious, and there is no suitable candidate in Yan Guang's hands at the moment, so the principal can only be served by him first.
"Is the position of the principal in place by you for the time being, boss?"
"It's just temporary, I've already transferred 20 people from the guard, and at the same time a group of people from the Army School, the Armed Forces Academy and the Accelerated Academy, when the shelves of these two departments are erected, I will first investigate, if there are suitable candidates to be promoted..."
Wang Yaowu and Song Dinghan glanced at each other, and since Yan Guang said so, they naturally had no opinion.
