At this time, China's steel industry is actually very pitiful, once Asia's largest steel mill Hanyang Iron Works has been out of production for many years, the only thing that is still a little bit of scale is left in Shanghai Hexing, but because of the squeeze of foreign steel, the chaotic situation in China, and even the conflict between labor and capital, it has been stopped and opened for decades, half-dead to maintain, and the remaining some are small factories, although there are also good operations such as Daxin Steel Plant, but there is no scale at all, and the steel industry is not good without scale.

The bald guy is also very aware of this, so he is preparing to build a large Zhongyang Iron and Steel Plant in Ma'anshan, but with the corrupt officials under him, it is estimated that this steel plant will not have any good results.

"I have a friend who is working at Daye Iron Works now, if Brother Yang is interested, I can help you get in touch." He Guoguang said.

Daye Iron Works, Yang Feng is very interested in making this iron factory yellow, you must know that this is the most important raw material supplier of Yaman Iron, the iron ore dug out by Daye Iron Mine is processed into iron sand nearby, and then loaded directly to Japan, in Yaman Iron into steel, and then sent to the Japanese arsenal into weapons, turned around and transported to kill Chinese, that is also a great wonder of the Republic of China.

"Of course welcome, Brother Yuanzhang, the younger brother is now thirsty for talent, I am now all about hiring people from abroad, not to mention the high cost, I don't have to worry about it, if I can have a few more domestic engineers, it will solve my big trouble." This guy said sincerely, he suddenly thought of digging up all the talents of Daye Iron Mine and Iron Factory, which is a good note.

"Okay then, I'll get in touch with you later." He Guoguang nodded and said.

At this time, Huangjueping has become a huge construction site, Liu Xiang and others from all over Sichuan requisitioned people are coming in a steady stream, and then the engineers hired by JY company from abroad to guide the construction, and the army under Liu Xiang is responsible for supervision, just like countless worker ants are busy.

The pier at Kowloon Beach is expanding. A railway from Kowloon Beach to Wong Wai Ping is also being laid, and it is a double line, the steel plant and power plant are under construction at the same time, and a road is also under construction, which is a modern four-lane asphalt road that connects to Wong Jue Ping at one end. At the other end is the Baishiyi Airport, which is under construction.

The consumption of such a huge project fund is also huge, looking at the financial statements sent by Xiaohui, even a wealthy guy like Yang Feng can't help but be a little staggered.

"Boss, do you know how the people here describe you?" Xiaohui said cautiously.

"How do you describe me, saying that I am their great benefactor?" Yang Feng said quite reservedly.

"That's a howl!" Xiao Hui said with a smile.

"Huh?" Yang Feng sweated for a moment, and then said with a lonely look of cold in a high place: "Ha'er, Ha'er!" There are so few Harles like me these days. ”

"Brother Yang, it's too wasteful for you to build such a big aircraft factory, right?" When inspecting the construction site of Baishiyi Airport, Liu Xiang said to Yang Feng with some incomprehension. This airport is indeed a bit bigger, the runway alone is 1,500 meters long, and it has an excessively large apron, so it is too wasteful for Yang Feng to take off and land his private plane.

"Brother Fu Cheng, do you know how big my plane is?" Yang Feng asked.

"Bigger than the three-propeller plane you're flying in right now?" Liu Xiang said suspiciously.

"It's not big, it's big!" Yang Feng said with a smile that his airport was not just for his own special plane, and this was only an airport in the plan. He also planned to build a few more in Sichuan, once the Sino-Japanese war broke out. Then his Liberator bombers can use Sichuan as a rear base, and then build some forward airfields in the north, and the bombers will take off from Sichuan to the forward airfields to refuel and reload, and then talk to Curtis. Li Meixue took napalm to burn Japan, and then hid back in Sichuan after burning.

As long as the bald guy can keep Wuhan at that time. Japan can bomb it as much as it wants, and of course it can't tell anyone about such a great plan for the time being.

"What is the situation of the bandits on the front?" He quickly digressed the topic.

When it comes to the bandits, Liu Xiang is embarrassed, to be honest, he is really sad now, and he resolutely cannot let the local tyrants divide the land into Sichuan. But the problem is that the Sichuan army really doesn't have the ability to stop them, and since last year, they have even suffered defeats, and now the soldiers are afraid of the enemy like tigers, and they are basically crushed at the first touch, and this battle cannot be fought at all.

But the problem is that if you don't fight, you can't do it, the bald guy is staring at the back, if you don't fight, he will let the Zhongyang army enter Sichuan to help, and at that time, it will be easy to ask God to send God, Liu Xiang and several people know very well what it means to make a big mistake.

"Alas, brother, I am incompetent, and I am ashamed of the trust of my father and elders!" Liu Xiang sighed heartily.

Yang Feng looked at no one around and said in a low voice: "They are all Chinese, what to fight, how good is it to be harmonious together?" They didn't get in our way, they just came to borrow a way.

Everyone has no grievances in the past and no hatred in the near future, and Brother Fu Cheng seems to be old with several of them, right? Aren't Brother Zihui and Zhu De still brothers? He Long, Liu Bocheng and you were also stirring rice in a horse spoon back then, why do you have to fight to the death? ”

"Brother Yang, what do you mean?" Of course Liu Xiang doesn't want to fight with them, it's not a matter of friendship, the key is that no matter how hard he fights, he will suffer a loss, and he really doesn't want to do this kind of stupid thing.

"Brother means, why don't we contact them, I think Brother Fucheng should be okay with this, right?" Yang Feng said with a smile.

Liu Xiang nodded.

"It's not easy for them to live, they don't have guns, they don't have to eat, they don't even have medicine for injuries and illnesses, I mean we might as well make a deal with them, only they don't make trouble in Sichuan, we not only let them pass, but I am responsible for airdropping some arms and medicines to them, it's really not good, we can also play a few scenes together to fool around, just send them out of the city." Yang Feng said.

Liu Xiang was a little moved, anyway, he didn't need to pay for it, it was nothing more than being a middleman, but the benefits were all his, of course, this also required some risks, such as being known by the bald guy, but this risk could be completely ignored by him. The bald guy can only get angry when he knows what he says, and besides, as Yang Feng said, he can collude to act in a few scenes, and this kind of play has not been played by anyone before.

"Brother Fu Cheng, our biggest trouble is not them, think about it if our steel group is built. If my aircraft factory, automobile factory, and special metal factory are all built, what will become of Chongqing? Now that Nanjing is already eyeing the tiger, by that time will the two eyes be blood-red?

If the Chinese army enters Sichuan, then the first target is Chongqing, if they get Chongqing, do you think our industry can still be saved? Have they swallowed up the industry less over the years?

So now we have to prepare for how to keep our industry in the future, first of all, you and the others have to put aside all the grievances and grievances in the past. We can't fight anymore in the future, unity is the most important thing, the brothers of the Sichuan army have to twist into a rope, and besides, like the completely unnecessary loss of bandits, if you can avoid it, try to avoid it! ”

Yang Feng's words went to Liu Xiang's heart, he had been thinking about this problem for a long time, if Yang Feng's seeds were really so high-yielding, if his factories were built. Then Sichuan is a big piece of fat meat, so fat that anyone can't help but drool. If you want to keep this piece of fat from being robbed by others, the army comes first.

"Brother Yang, you still have a long-term view! This thing is easy to do, let's get together another day, and you will leave the matter of contacting us over there, we are all old friends. They still have to give this face. Liu Xiang patted Yang Feng on the shoulder and said.

"Then everything will be handed over to Brother Fu Cheng, you can explain to them, as long as they are willing to cooperate with us, we can negotiate the price, sulfonamide." Tianyi Shenshui can be given to them. Yang Feng said.

These things have not been obtained since the last time they were given to them by Lin Yin, and after knowing the effects of these two medicines, the desire for them must be very strong.

Yang Feng stayed in Chongqing for half a month, half a month later Zhang Xinwu rushed back from the Nantong Coal Mine with a group of engineers, during this time he straightened out all the things in the iron mine and the coal mine, in fact, there were some small-scale mining in these two places, and now it is just that those small mines are all received under the name of Chongqing Iron and Steel Group, as for what way this Yang Feng is not interested in care, anyway, there are Liu Xiang these bigwigs as the backstage, and the way is not according to his mood.

"Now it seems that the most important thing is to build the steel plant first, the railway can be slowed down, although the Qijiang and Nantong are remote, but the water transportation conditions are still okay, we can build the factory first, and then use our own production of rails to build the railway." Zhang Xinwu summed up the results of the trip, and then said to Yang Feng.

"Yes, that's totally fine." Yang Feng has no opinion on this.

"There are also workers, now the price of steel is cheap, although we use the most advanced electric arc furnace, the quality of the product is naturally no problem, but if the labor cost can not be reduced, it is difficult to compete with foreign goods, especially the cost of mining."

"You don't need to worry about this, I got you a batch of free workers." Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Free workers?" Zhang Xinwu was stunned.

"Yes, in this battle of Duolun, Sun Dianying captured more than 7,000 prisoners, most of them were Mongols from various departments in Eastern Inner Mongolia, these guys didn't dare to use it, they couldn't kill and kill, and they had to pay for food to feed them, so they were all asked by me to come, I have explained to them that they will work here for free for three years, eat and wear the mine, and after three years, they will become regular workers, and they have all agreed, and now they are being transported here by train! But there is one thing, that is, these people have to be optimistic, I will ask Liu Xiang for a regiment to watch them in the mine. Yang Feng said.

As he spoke, he suddenly regretted a little, at that time, he should have left those surrendered Japanese, and then thrown them into the mines as coolies, these guys are permanent free labor, just use the way they deal with the Chinese laborers who were caught in Japan to deal with them, just give a few nests a day without starving to death, and then work for eighteen hours a day, and throw them directly into the mine when they are tired to death.

"That's a good thing, nephew Yang Xian, there is something I want to ask clearly, but don't mind." Zhang Xinwu thought for a while and said.

"Uncle, please speak."

"What is the relationship between you and Sun Dianying, although I have read some in the newspaper, but after all, it is all speculation by outsiders."

"How so?" Yang Feng scratched his head and thought for a while and said: "I am brothers with Sun Dianying and Feng Zhanhai, you can see their army as if I am raising, their weapons and ammunition are all supplied by me now, and they are cultivating the seeds in Chahar." I also provide chemical fertilizer and grazing sheep, and I also sell what they produce. ”

"In other words, I can think of these two armies as our own." Zhang Xinwu said with a smile.

"So to speak!" Yang Feng nodded.

"Then let me ask again, are the bandits who plundered the Japanese and traitors in Heilongjiang and Rehe all their people, as the Japanese newspapers say?"

Yang Feng smiled and nodded.

"What they plundered. I'm also in charge of handling it. Then he added.

Zhang Xinwu nodded with a smile, and then said something that made Yang Fengmao pause: "Then why don't they tie people up?" ”

Yes, why can't they tie people up? They can tie up the immigrants of the Japanese pioneer group! Then you can make a bid, one hundred and ten yuan per person is enough, those bandits of the robbery team are absolutely willing to do it, anyway, they used to kill directly, but now they just get a sack and put it back, many of these guys are used to bringing two or three side horses, just tie the horse on their backs. Not only men can be tied, but women can also be tied, including captives are men in the mines, they also need to solve their physiological needs, just get some Japanese women to throw at them, how to play is none of their business, anyway, those two mines are in the mountains, and there are a large number of Sichuan troops guarding along the way. It is estimated that it is impossible to escape.

"Elder Zhang, that's a good idea. I immediately contacted Sun Dianying, it just so happened that it was already spring, and it was time for his rush team to be dispatched. Yang Feng said with a smile.

Yang Feng is not interested in the production of ordinary steel, but these things are not good if they are not produced. After all, this is what is the most useful right now.

"For the production of ordinary steel, you can always be responsible for the checks, but you need to build a separate alloy steel production workshop for me, and I will produce some of the more advanced alloy steels here, which I am not going to hand over to outsiders. Now I am cooperating with Beiyang Institute of Technology and Nankai University, they will be in charge of technology, and my New Oriental College is also training workers in this area, and they will be responsible for production when the time comes. Yang Feng said.

"Okay, in fact, according to the current market, ordinary steel does not make much money, but alloy steel is a project to make a lot of money, we can take the strategy of high-end industry to raise low-end industry, steel this thing, can not just consider how much money to make, this is a long-term industry, as long as we can exist is a kind of success, there will always be opportunities to make money." Zhang Xinwu said.

The steel industry of the Republic of China was ruined and could not survive, how many steel plants were started during World War I? At that time, it could be said that the day was making money, and after the war, it was impossible to make money, and did not consider how to rely on the progress of technology to persevere, but simply stopped production and closed the door, and let the market out to foreigners, and when the steel industry recovered, it would be difficult to regain the market.

"By the way, I hired an engineer for you from the Shanghai Iron and Steel Research Institute, this person is very interested in alloy steel, if you can rest assured, it is better to let him be in charge of alloy steel." Zhang Xinwu said again.

"That's okay, I don't know what his name is?" Yang Feng asked curiously, at this time, there were people in China who were familiar with alloy steel production, which really surprised him.

"Yan Enqi, who used to be the deputy director of Daye Iron and Steel Plant, was one of the main engineers when Wu Jian presided over the resumption of production at Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant." Zhang Xinwu said.

"Where are all those engineers now after the Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant stopped production?" Yang Feng asked with some curiosity, these people are very precious, and it is not easy to have a few steel engineers in China these days.

"Where else can I go, I will receive a day in the yamen! Wu Jian is now in Hankou as the director of the Commodity Inspection Bureau. ”

"What a waste! Now the most important thing in China is officials, and that thing can be done by finding a donkey to sit in the office, but it is the engineer who really understands the skills is the most lacking, so it is a huge waste to let an excellent steel engineer run to be a half-sized and dispensable official. Yang Feng said.

"If you say this in front of them, maybe they will think you are stupid, and there are officials who should not be some kind of engineer." Zhang Xinwu said with a smile.

"Sorrow, this is the sorrow of our nation!" Yang Feng said with emotion.

The two were talking, and there was a woman's scream downstairs, listening to the voice was Xiaohui, and there was also Margaret's proud shout, this goods had just arrived in Chongqing and was invited to Quxian by Yang Sen's wife, Yang Sen was fashionable, and he also liked to raise a female student or something, so among the princes of Sichuan, his wives could play with Margaret.

The voices of the two women were very loud, and it sounded like something new, Yang Feng smiled apologetically at Zhang Xinwu, and then poked his head out of the window, and ended up hanging on the windowsill.

Margaret, dressed in white fur, was struggling to show off a panda not much bigger than a dog to Xiaohui, and in a truck behind her, inside a large wooden cage, two large and two small four pandas were looking curiously at the busy construction site around her.

"What kind of animal is this?" Zhang Xinwu was also stunned.

"Cat Bear!" Yang Feng didn't care about talking to him about work, so he ran out of the house with two words, and as soon as he arrived downstairs, Margaret pounced on the panda with her arms, and her fur was so plush that it was not much different from a panda.

This thing didn't shy away from the habit of outsiders, and even she took a panda with more than 100 catties and smashed it into Yang Feng's arms, knocking him directly to the ground.

"I'll rub it, you crazy girl, knock me to death!" Yang Feng raised his head while rubbing his head, and his dizzy lips were covered with something wet, which didn't feel like Margaret's lips, and then a huge tongue licked his face. (To be continued......)
