Chapter 21 A Trip to Nanjing

When he got to the car, Jiang Cheng asked, "Old Yu, what do you have to say to me alone?" ”

Yu Qiaqing said with a smile: "You kid is really a good person, I know that I have something to arrest you, Chairman Jiang's telegram also said some things, I don't want to take Du Yuesheng and their face seriously." Chairman Chiang sent a telegram saying, Germany wants to get your penicillin formula and manufacturing process, what do you think? ”

Jiang Cheng closed his eyes and thought for a while and said, "There is actually nothing really difficult about the penicillin process, even if we don't say anything, I think Germany can only make zuò in two or three years at most." As he spoke, he opened his eyes and said, "I decided to give it to Germany." ”

Yu Qiaqing was so frightened that she grabbed Jiang Cheng's hand and said, "Are you crazy?" Penicillin is such a precious thing, even in order to get German military equipment, we don't need to give it away for nothing, you are really a cub selling Ye Tian and don't feel distressed, right? ”

Jiang Cheng smiled, "I didn't say that it was given to Germany in vain, but this was developed by our organization with the strength of the boss, how could it be given to the Germans in vain." ”

Yu Qiaqing asked, "Then what do you mean?" ”

Jiang Cheng analyzed: "Old Yu, what do you think is the reason for the comprehensive cooperation between China and Germany now? ”

Yu Qiaqing thought for a while and said, "Everyone has what they need."

Jiang Cheng nodded and praised, "That's right, the reason for the comprehensive cooperation between China and Germany is very simple, one is that China needs German industry, Germany needs China's resources, which just complement each other, and the second is that Germany hopes that there is a powerful force in the east that can attract the power of the Soviet Union, and Hitler's purpose is to hope that China can pull one of the legs of the Soviet Union, but once we fight with Japan, what does Yu Lao think we are like in the early stage?" ”

Yu Qiaqing sighed and said, "We all said at the wine table just now, we must be prepared for a long-term war, and the early stage of our battle with the Japanese must be more defeat than victory." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and continued: "So, at that time, our role in China to Germany will be lower and lower, and I believe that the final result must be that Germany will abandon China and be with Japan." Therefore, my request for penicillin this time is very simple: as long as all orders before the severance of diplomatic relations between China and Germany, Germany must ensure that all orders are delivered to the Chinese government, no matter what happens at that time. ”

Yu Qiaqing also understood Jiang Cheng's approach, after all, according to what Jiang Cheng said, even if he didn't give it, Germany could study it on its own, so it was better to use it as a condition of exchange.

After a while, they arrived at Yu's house. The Yu family was still brightly lit at this time. When I got out of the car, I saw Lin Bao, Yu Yishan and Yu Zhimin, who was dressed in bandages, all at the door. Seeing Jiang Cheng coming down, Yu Zhimin first bowed, "Thank you Mr. Jiang for saving your life." ”

Jiang Cheng was so frightened that he hurriedly dodged, quickly helped him up and said, "I'm just a medicine seller, and your injuries are not serious, even if you don't have my medicine, you will be better." How can there be any kindness to say, not to mention that Yu Lao has helped me too much, really speaking, I owe you the Yu family. ”

Yu Qiaqing smiled, "No one owes anyone, today is the first time Xiao Jiang has come to his new home." Let's all be happy, let's go, let's go inside. ”

Lin Bao also stepped forward and said, "The owner, fortunately, the mission is not dishonored, this house is finally packed up before the owner comes back, but there are still some subordinates or something." ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "I'm not usually at home, don't prepare too many people, just prepare a few people to help me clean the house." ”

Yu Yishan finally found an opportunity at this time and rushed to the truck of Huang Biao and others behind. She'd seen the bizarre bicycles on her for a long time.

"What is this? Is it my gift? Yu Yishan exclaimed excitedly.

"That's right, these are the latest bikes we have developed, Huang Biao, you go and unload the bike."

Huang Biao answered, and moved the bicycle down with a few people. Yu Yishan happily circled around the bicycles when she saw them.

Since it is spring, it is very suitable for spring outing, Jiang Cheng said, "Why don't we take some time to ride a bicycle together for a spring outing." ”

Yu Yishan jumped up happily and shouted, "Okay, can I let my classmates come?" ”

Yu Qiaqing said, "Recently, the China-Japan Business Association has been very active, so it is better to take this opportunity to invite more business people to form an alliance and prepare for the future event." ”

Yu Yishan said unhappily: "A good spring outing is going to be ruined again." ”

Jiang Cheng enlightened, "It's okay, we can ride a bicycle to the place, so let's do it, it's in Sheshan, it's also convenient to play, is there a villa or something over there?" ”

Yu Zhimin interjected, "A cathedral has just been built over there in the past two years, so I think it's better to play near the church." ”

Jiang Cheng suddenly thought of the grass wedding in the future and said, "Wow, it's better to find a big meadow, our buffet model must be fun." ”

Yu Qiaqing shook her head and was silent when she saw that Jiang Cheng valued playing the most. I had to beckon everyone in and said, "Okay, let's go in and talk about it, Xiao Jiang, in order to hide people's eyes, your family is not written on the door of the Jiang family, but you bought it in the name of my Yu family's expansion of the hospital, no problem." ”

Jiang Cheng hurriedly thanked, "Thank you for being old, I really didn't expect this." ”

Since Jiang Cheng's family still has nothing, Jiang Cheng still eats and drinks in Yu's house. After a family banquet in the evening, Jiang Cheng rested in the courtyard, looking at the stars in the sky, and couldn't help but feel the wonder of the world, he was still in the 21st century yesterday, but today he came to Shanghai in 1937.

"What are you laughing at?" Yu Yishan suddenly appeared behind Jiang Cheng and asked.

"I laughed at a little fool who sneaked up behind me for a long time." Jiang Cheng heard that it was Yu Yishan's voice and said jokingly.

"I hate ~~~ Brother Cheng, I heard grandpa say that you are going to Nanjing soon?" Yu Yishan also sat on the stool opposite the small pavilion and asked.

"Yes, the Nanjing government has called me several times, and I am ready to leave tomorrow." Jiang Cheng sighed.

"How can it be so fast? Can't you stay two more days? Yu Yishan said unhappily. I'd like to ride a bike with you. ”

"Shanshan, I'm doing business, and I'll be back soon, so let's not have a party, I'll let Yu Lao stay at night, and I'll always play with you during the day." Jiang Cheng saw this girl like his sister and said gently.

"Hmph, I don't want you to accompany me." Yu Yishan snorted and turned her back embarrassedly to leave, hesitated again and said, "But seeing that you are so pitiful, I will promise to accompany you, but I want you to pick me up at school." ”

Jiang Cheng was about to cry when he heard it, Yu Yishan's school was in Fudan University in the future. It is 30 kilometers away from Sheshan, and at the thought of riding a bicycle for 30 kilometers, Jiang Cheng felt that his legs and stomach were shaking, and just as he wanted to say something, Yu Yishan jumped and walked away.

"My sister is naughty, but let Mr. Jiang forgive me." Jiang Cheng had a feeling that this Yu family was not elusive, just now Yu Yishan left, and this Yu Zhimin came again. "No, no, Shanshan is innocent and cute, I like her very much."

Yu Zhimin's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he didn't say anything, but changed the topic and said, "I heard that Brother Jiang is going to do business in Europe and the United States?" I wonder if there is a suitable candidate? ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "I really don't have a candidate, let Yu Lao and Boss Du help me pick them first." ”

Yu Zhimin said embarrassedly, "I don't know what Mr. Jiang thinks of me?" ”

Jiang Cheng knew his intention at this time, looked at Yu Zhimin and shook his head and said, "No, our European and American side will start construction immediately, and it is better for you to recuperate at home with this injury." ”

Yu Zhimin sighed and said, "It's all to blame on damn little Japan." ”

Jiang Cheng asked, "I don't know if the Japanese came to trouble again." ”

Yu Zhimin nodded and said, "Where would there be none." I came here several times, and I asked my grandfather to send him back, and I always hoped that our family would also join the China-Japan Business Association. ”

Jiang Cheng said, "Stay up, endure for a while, the Japanese will not be arrogant forever." ”

Yu Zhimin said again, "There are also Japanese people who have approached us several times, hoping to buy penicillin at a reasonable price, but we have refused, I always feel that something will happen in this way, or we should lower the price for the Japanese." ”

Jiang Cheng stared at Yu Zhimin for a while, Yu Zhimin couldn't stand it a little and said, "I'm not afraid of the Japanese, it's just that the Japanese are looking for trouble like this again and again, after all, it's not a thing." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded, walked around a few times, looked at Yu Zhimin and said, "You said that if Wei Hua wants to annex the Yu family, will you be angry?" ”

Yu Zhimin listened inexplicably. said stupidly, "It should be, but I'm afraid that my Yu family is not in Mr. Jiang's eyes." ”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Sell, why don't you sell." Not only selling, but also selling big sales, how about leaving this job to you? ”

Yu Zhimin didn't quite understand and said, "What does Mr. Jiang mean, I don't understand." ”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "You will understand later, in this way, let's go to your grandfather, and we will discuss it together." ”

Next, Jiang Cheng talked with Yu Zhimin and Yu Qiaqing all night. I don't know what was talked about either.

The next day, Jiang Cheng and Yu Qiaqing took a car to Nanjing, accompanied by Huang Biao and several large trucks, which were filled with medicines and individual equipment brought by Jiang Cheng from modern times.

At this time, Huang Biao and the others all changed into this set of equipment, and when they encountered a checkpoint on the way, they thought it was from which unit, and made a lot of jokes.

-- Nanjing, with a history of more than 6,000 years of civilization, nearly 2,600 years of city history and nearly 500 years of history of building the capital, is one of the four ancient capitals of China, known as the "ancient capital of the six dynasties" and "the capital of the ten dynasties", is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization, and has long been the political and cultural center of southern China in history. The Ming Dynasty was also Nanjing, and only two generations were replaced by uncles from the north. And because there have been too many massacres in Nanjing, people in the world often complain that the scenic spots in Nanjing are all graves. The next massacre is less than a year away, and the people here do not feel the impending doom at all, and are still working hard for their livelihoods.

Jiang Cheng and his entourage arrived in Nanjing, but were stopped by the guards, perhaps because they saw the dress of Huang Biao and others, they were not at ease, and they called for a long time to confirm before they were released.

Jiang Cheng and the others arrived at Yu Qiaqing's residence in Nanjing, and after cleaning up, Yu Qiaqing said, "I'll go to the presidential palace first, you go around Nanjing, and I'll inform you when there is news." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and agreed, "No problem, I'll go around, Old Yu, you can get busy." ”

Jiang Cheng suddenly remembered that he had promised Gallagher to go to the church last time, and seeing that it was still early, he decided to go to St. Paul's Church, the earliest church in Nanjing. called Huang Biao and the others, and drove to the church.

Completed in 1923, St. Paul's Church in Nanjing was the first official Christian chapel in Nanjing. But the size is not big, the construction area is only 485.6 square meters, it can be said that it is not as big as a modern villa, today is Saturday, and there are still people in the church doing homework, Jiang Cheng rushed over with interest.

When I arrived at the place, I saw that the church was more than ten meters high and looked like a Gothic building. Jiang Cheng saw the door of the church and a lot of cars parked, so he asked Huang Biao and others to wait outside, and walked into the church alone. At this time, a foreigner saw Jiang Cheng and stepped forward and said, "Hello, do you have anything to do?" ”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "I'm interested in Christianity, can I come and hear about it?" ”

"The doctrine of Christ is for the sake of the world, and everyone can hear it, so come to Christ and be saved!" A middle-aged Chinese woman also stepped forward and said.

This middle-aged woman was not dressed luxuriously, but she was extravagant, and she looked like she was well-educated.

"I'll just listen to it, and I won't disturb you." Jiang Cheng said embarrassedly, sat aside and didn't speak.

The middle-aged woman sat down next to him and said, "Can you understand English?" ”

"yes, do you understand English?" Jiang Cheng also asked Gallagher, "Nonsense, what can't I, Lord Gallagher, understand?" Just plain English? You ask her if she understands the worm language? Gallagher said angrily. It seems to be angry that this woman doubts his intelligence.

Jiang Cheng also ignored Gallagher's call and said, "I have lived abroad all the year round, and I can understand basically all languages, but I can't speak well." "This is because if you need to have a conversation, it is very difficult to repeat the pronunciation of Gallagher accurately.

The lady nodded and said, "Do you understand what they're discussing?" ”

Here I would like to explain to some friends who don't know much about religion that churches do not only worship all day long, but have many religious activities, such as literacy classes, English meetings, Bible study meetings, English Bible studies, youth meetings, and so on. The main time of worship is Sunday, and most of the rest of the time is done other things.

In fact, English Bible study is mainly based on the original text of the Bible, which can be said to be a way for Christians to learn from each other.

Gallagher laughed and said, "Sue her, what is being discussed now is the New Testament chapter 24 of Matthew, the end of the world. I can't stand this kind of person who sells off with a little knowledge. Look at the poor monk, am I selling? ”

Jiang Cheng's brows jumped, isn't this called pretentiousness, knowing that I don't understand, he smiled and said to the noblewoman, "Now I'm talking about the twenty-fourth chapter of Matthew in the New Testament, the end is coming." ”

The lady smiled and said, "Yes, the end is coming, do you believe in the end?" What do you think we should do when the end comes? ”

Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "The reason why we human beings have religion is because of fear, fear of the past, fear of reality, fear of the future, and of course fear of the end of the world. The way of heaven lacks one, but there is a glimmer of life. I don't think there's anything to fear about the end of the world, it's just a rebirth, just like the Great Flood, and after the Great Flood there is the current prosperous world, isn't it? The most important thing is that we should work hard when we face the end of the world, so that we can overcome the end times."

The lady nodded and said, "You are very interesting, most of the people who come here are here to get the favor of the Lord so as to escape the end times, but they are thinking about overcoming the end times, very interesting ideas, I hope we can still meet." So saying, the noblewoman turned and left.

Jiang Cheng shook his head and continued to listen to the discussion of the people in the church, drowsy, until it was too late and everyone was over, and he was invited out by the divine father of the church. Jiang Cheng asked, "How is it, is there any gain?" ”

Gallagher smiled, "It's not bad, next time you can help me get a Bible." ”

After Jiang Cheng and Huang Biao and others went to eat Nanjing's snack - duck blood vermicelli soup, Jiang Cheng and others returned to Yu Qiaqing's house, and it was already evening at this time.

Yu Qiaqing saw Jiang Cheng coming back and said happily, "Little Jiang, I, Chairman Jiang, let us go and see him tomorrow morning, dress up in spirit, Chairman Jiang likes people to be clean, you know?" ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know, Old Yu, have you inquired about anything?" Is there anything interesting to do in Nanjing City recently? ”

Yu Qiaqing took a sip of tea, nodded and said, "It's true, two days ago, Mr. Song published "The Theory of China's Imperdition", criticizing Chairman Chiang for violating Sun Yat-sen's legacy, costing a huge amount of life, huge material energy and money to carry out a civil war, forgetting to defend China under Japanese aggression" and said that at present, "although the civil war has stopped, I have not heard anything about the compromise of the Red Party"

This made Chairman Chiang half angry, didn't this make the Red Party send people to Nanjing for negotiations? In order to block the mouth of Youyou."

Jiang Cheng asked curiously, "I don't know who the Red Party has sent?" ”

Yu Qiaqing thought for a while and said, "It seems to be Zhou Guansheng, who was also in Huangpu before." ”

"Premier Zhou???" Jiang Cheng stood up excitedly.

"Prime Minister? Is their red government still preserving itself prime minister, huh. It's really a group of chaotic parties that don't know what to call it. Yu Qiaqing said disdainfully, "But I have been in contact with Zhou Guansheng, and he is indeed a humble gentleman."

Jiang Cheng hurriedly said, "Oh, no, I mean I heard it wrong, I thought it was a friend of mine, he was neutral, hehe, I heard it wrong, I heard it wrong." ”

Yu Qiaqing didn't ask anything anymore, but kept talking about the relationship between various forces in Nanjing, and warned Jiang Cheng that he should pay attention to the things he should pay attention to when getting along with some people in Nanjing. Jiang Cheng kept thinking about Zhou Guansheng's name in his heart, did he have a chance to meet this great man this time?
