Situ Nan seemed to be a little unsatisfied, and pointed to the group of bombers outside the window that was gradually moving away and continued: "See? They are our weapons to defend Wusongkou against the enemy outside the country! ”

Zhang Jingjiang sighed: "Today is really an eye-opener. I sighed in my heart: The achievements of the Zhi Gong Party today are not a fluke! If the aircraft can really block the maritime threat of the great powers, it will be a blessing for the country!

"Before I arrived at Wusongkou, I was full of confidence in Mr. Situ Nan's big Shanghai plan." Yu Qiaqing conformed to the Tao.

"It's over, the Greater Shanghai Plan is not my alone, it belongs to everyone and belongs to all builders."

Situ Nan said modestly.

As early as last year, the Greater Shanghai Plan was proposed, but it was later postponed by Song Ziwen and others.

For the sake of national defense and security, the US-China consortium has allocated considerable resources to Nanjing, Wuhan, and other six cities in China to establish a number of heavy industrial enterprises, and it is impossible to ignore Shanghai's central position in the country's financial, industrial, and cultural fields.

"Elder Zhang, you see, the following is Jiangwan, the essence of the Greater Shanghai Construction Plan, and we want to build a Shanghai that is more prosperous than the concession."

In order to carry out aerial reconnaissance, the passenger plane has been kept relatively low under his command. Under his command, the captain slowly lowered the flight altitude and circled over the Huangpu River.

Jiangwan, as the name suggests, is the place where the Huangpu River turns, located on the west bank of the Huangpu River, adjacent to the public concession, just in the direction of the expansion of the public concession.

The famous 6 mouths of later generations are across the river from Jiangwan.

Bird's-eye view of the Huangpu River, Shanghai at a glance. Ships on the river are shuttling back and forth. It's the size of a matchbox, slowly wriggling, and it looks small, if you look at it from the ground. The contrast between the boats and the mountains is interesting.

"Shanghai is prosperous, and it is rare to see such a city in China, but after leaving the concession, the Chinese border is slowly backward and barren. We Chinese must build a new city in Shanghai, which is better than the concession! ”

Zhang Jingjiang's eyes still fell on the ground, watching the concession divide Shanghai into two distinct worlds, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

In fact, compared with the other 6 townships in the interior, Jiangwan is not too backward, just compared with the concession. The gap comes out. Like a shabby beggar. Forced to endure the disdain of the richly handsome richly dressed next to him.

"Oops! The feeling on the ground is not strong, and when I go up to the sky, I see that it is on the bank of the Huangpu River. It turns out that the gap is so big. If you want to talk about Pudong, the gap is even bigger. ”

Yu Qiaqing said.

"Forget about Pudong, we don't have so much money to sprinkle in Pudong now." Situ Nan shook his head, the current Pudong is a rotten land, and there is really no investment value.

The plane flew along the Huangpu River towards the mouth of the Yangtze River, leaving the ten-mile ocean field behind, and presenting Situ Nan with a wider body of water.

"Sooner or later, the concession will be recovered. Compared with the concession, the prospect of the exhibition here in Wusongkou is not bad, the water is deeper, unlike in the concession. Ships over 10,000 tons could not enter until high tide, so it was necessary to build a deep-water port near the mouth of the Yangtze River. "Situ Nandao.

Looking back on the history of Shanghai, Shanghai's exhibition trajectory is to the sea step by step, the port from the Huangpu River to the Yangtze River estuary, and then to the ocean, the tonnage of ships has also changed from 1,000 tons to 10,000 tons to 100,000 tons, but that is almost a hundred years later, if history has not changed.

Zhang Jingjiang's mind was smart, and he seemed to get some information from Situ Nan's words, and asked tentatively, "What do you mean...... Could it be that the water of the Huangpu River is too shallow? Preparing to build a new port at the mouth of the Yangtze River, this is a big project! ”

"That's true." Situ Nan nodded.

If the Huangpu River is not dredged, it will be difficult for ships of more than 10,000 tons to sail in. It was not that the great ships of the great powers did not visit Shanghai, but more often stopped at the mouth of the Yangtze River, rushed into the Huangpu River if necessary to show off, and then ran out before the tide receded.

As for ordinary ships, the same is true for ordinary ships, and the large cruise ships of the Nanxing Steamship Company cannot enter the ports in the concession, so they have to use the guò ferry to realize the exchange between the cruise ships and the wharves in the concession.

In the construction plan of Greater Shanghai, Situ Nan's eyes have jumped out of the Huangpu River and set his sights on the Yangtze River estuary. Baoshan -- That is the deepest impression of Shanghai in Situ Nan's memory, and if he could, he also wanted to build an iron factory in Baoshan, perhaps no less than the Hanyang Iron Works. It's just that this plan is too huge, and most of it is stored in Situ Nan's mind, and he can't say it to others for a while.

"What about Jiangwan? If a port is built at the mouth of the Yangtze River, will the Jiangwan side be affected? Yu Qiaqing asked.

Jiangwan is adjacent to the concession and is still some distance away from the Yangtze River estuary, will the new port plan affect the construction plan of Greater Shanghai?

Yu Qiaqing was a little worried.

"Naturally, Jiangwan will also be built, but it will focus on commercial areas and public service areas, and government offices, stadiums, schools and other places will be in Jiangwan New Town, and this plan will remain unchanged. As for the new wharf at the mouth of the Yangtze River, it is mainly for the new industrial zone, and the two have different functions and do not overlap. ”

Situ Nan explained that he was in a hurry just now, and he didn't say it thoroughly for a while, only talking about building a new city in Jiangwan, but not about building another industrial zone at the mouth of the Yangtze River.

Zhang Jingjiang and Yu Qiaqing were secretly surprised, they didn't expect Situ Nan's appetite to be so big?

Zhang Jingjiang said with a smile: "I see, the construction plan of Greater Shanghai is not only the construction of the urban area, but also the new industrial zone? ”

Situ Nan nodded: "Simply building a new city in Jiangwan, except for showing it to the great powers, is really not much fun." I hope to promote the Shanghai Industrial Exhibition through a few key industries, so it is necessary to build an industrial zone at the mouth of the Yangtze River. In this regard, Nanhua New Tangshan has set an example for Shanghai. ”

"That's just as well. New Tangshan is doing well, different industrial departments are planning to different areas, the same factories are gathered in the same area, when I visited last year, in a light industrial zone, good guys, all a dozen factories are textile factories. And then to the steel mill, heck, looking at the past was the world of steel. ”

Yu Qiaqing interjected.

Nanhua and China have a close relationship, and Chinese businessmen run to Nanhua to do business abound, and it is not difficult for Situ Nan to feel the amazement of traditional businessmen in the face of the emerging and precisely planned industrial construction from Yu Qiaqing's excited expression.

"There is no historical baggage on the Nanhua side, and the construction is a little simpler. As for the domestic side, we may have to be a little more careful. ”

Situ Nan smiled faintly and said to Zhang Jingjiang.

"Well, I've heard that, too. On the Nanhua side, it is indeed easier to let go of your hands and feet, and there is not much historical baggage. Zhang Jingjiang nodded and said thoughtfully.

The reason why the United States and China are more liberal in South China is because the Chinese have a strong position in South China, and the local aborigines are in a weak position, and the South China Zhi Gong Party will not give too much consideration to the feelings of the natives.

Of course, the more important reason is that Situ Nan designed an ingenious exhibition path for Nanhua, so that Nanhua's exhibition is at a relatively high starting point.

"Except for the port, doesn't Zhang Lao think that the Wusong Railway is too stingy?" Situ Nan asked again.

"Stingy?"

Zhang Jingjiang wondered, how to understand the word stingy?

He tried his best to follow Situ Nan's train of thought, knowing that Situ Nan was testing him, he thought about it, he was about to take charge of the China Railway Company, in charge of all the railways in the southern region, including the Wusong Railway, and the railway company naturally had to make some moves to cooperate with the construction plan of Greater Shanghai.

The Wusong Railway was the first railway in China, built by the British, connecting the Shanghai Concession and Wusongkou, and for this railway, the Chinese (Qing court) and foreigners gave birth to many ironic stories.

Zhang Jingjiang suddenly came up with a bold idea: "Build a deep-water port at the mouth of the Yangtze River and connect the port with the railway?" Even if you don't take the Yangtze River waterway, you can still use the Guò railway to realize the flow of goods from the mainland and abroad? ”

After speaking, he glanced at Situ Nan and immediately saw a smile in Situ Nan's eyes.

"That's right. Not only the Southern Railway Intermodal Transport, but also the Sea 6 Joint Operation, is also what I think. ”

South Szeto Road.

It is necessary to reconstruct the Wusong Railway, which is not long, the project is not large, and the largest investment is to build a deep-water port at the mouth of the Yangtze River.

"Meihua's stall is a little big, will it be out of reach?" Zhang Jingjiang said worriedly. He secretly estimated in his heart that the railway construction plan, the Greater Shanghai construction plan, and the thermal power project in the Yangtze River basin are definitely not small amounts, and it is impossible to launch one project.

"There will be pressure, but it's not a big problem, gritting your teeth and a few years will pass." When Situ Nan said this, his heart was a little heavy, and he felt a little pressure, and thought: Maybe he should go back and talk to Morgan and them, they have money, and instead of investing in Europe, it is better to share a little bit in China?

Grit your teeth and pass? Aren't these things a two-dollar thing? Meihua's money really can't be spent?

Zhang Jingjiang thought secretly in his heart, but he didn't ask, he didn't know where Situ Nan's confidence came from, but he was sure that the Wuhan government and the US-China consortium had invested so much in economic construction, and they definitely didn't have the energy to go north, and the situation of the confrontation between the north and the south was estimated to not change in the next few years.

Does this mean that perhaps there is still a chance for the Kuomintang in the north? As a veteran Kuomintang, Zhang Jingjiang naturally had such an idea in his mind.

This kind of thought flashed and was thrown away by him in an instant, but he felt that it was a bit funny to compare the Kuomintang and the Zhi Gong Party, the two are not the same level at all.

The fact that the Zhi Gong Party did not go north resulted in the opposite being that other parties had little chance to show themselves in the areas ruled by the Zhi Gong Party in the south.

Because the strength of the Zhi Gong Party is not only in the political and military aspects, but also mainly in changing the backward situation in China and building a backward agricultural country into an industrial power.

Such ambitions, can any force in the country have them?

Zhang Jingjiang sighed secretly.

The two of them were thinking about their own thoughts, and the conversation instantly fell into a brief silence, which was quickly broken.
