In a barren wilderness, there are a few small villages, withered weeds in the rice fields, and the shadows of the branches of the trees on the banks reflected in the cold water of the river.

A few pedestrians looked at the car convoy on a concrete road in the distance, although it was not the first time they had seen these products of modern industry, but the majesty of the soldiers on horseback made many young men and children fascinated.

"Look over there, there are a lot of soldiers." A few children in shabby cotton shoes ran around the ridges.

"Yes, yes." Looking at the heavily armed soldiers, the children's eyes were full of envy, the real guy was too heavy, if it was a simulated mold gun, the shrunken toy could make them happy for a long time. After all, the children had short legs and limited physical strength, and after running for a while, they couldn't run, and watched the team go away.

"Brother Yuwen, it's been a long time, it's been a long time." Shortly after the refinery was put into operation, Mr. Yan's office welcomed a regular customer he hadn't seen in a while.

"Yo, Lao Zhu, you usually do the same as the busiest person in the world, when you used to study, you couldn't see a ghost for a few days and a half a month, how did you come to Fengtian now."

Yan Yuwen saw Zhu Gu Tong, and couldn't help but smile, this guy has a good family background, but he stayed in the country to study with the idea of being a gold, and ran out at the school for three days and two ends, he didn't have much to study, and he liked to make some business things, which may have been influenced by his family, but Zhu Gu Tong was generous and quite indignant, and when he was studying in the United States, he had a big fight for a white man stepping on the flag of the Republic of China, and as a result, Zhu Gutong, who was not strong enough for a white man, was beaten up, but the white man was not lightly injured in the face of Zhu Gutong, who was a little crazy, it was the white student who was scared after hitting the hardest. I wish Gu Tong also became famous because of this. The price was lying in the hospital for more than a week.

"You kid is a poor man, you used to live like an ascetic in the United States, and now you are out of business, and you come back to work as a host in an oil refinery, and you still dress like a street sweeper." Zhu Gu Tong smiled when he saw his old acquaintance Ha Lu Ha Da Lu.

"You guy's mouth is still as bad as before." Yan Yuwen shook his head and smiled bitterly, looking at Gu Zhutong, who was dressed brightly and decently. Look at my work clothes again, when I entered the workshop just now, I still hung up the opening, and I didn't have time to change it when I was in time to see a report.

"By the way, didn't Feng Zhengxing come to Fengtian with you? As for others, I haven't seen you for so long, and I blame you for missing you. Zhu Gu Tong asked.

"It's not a coincidence that you're here, he left for the United States four days ago, and he has a contract to sign for the purchase of crude oil. The amount is quite large, so don't worry if you don't see it with your own eyes. Yan Yuwen said.

"It's a lot of money, how big can it be?" Zhu Gu Tong said tentatively, "I ran around your factory before I came, but it's really not small, to build such a big factory, I'm afraid I can't buy it without a few million, right?" ”

"You didn't learn anything else in the United States, you didn't learn about espionage, did you?" Yan Huwen made a joke. Then he said, "It's not that I won't tell you. Some things in the factory are not easy to disclose to the outside world. ”

"Okay, you really need to pay attention to the things you do with Fengtian, I won't say anything superfluous, this time you come to Fengtian, you have to do me a favor anyway." Zhu Gu Tongdao, "Since it is an oil refinery. As long as there are guys on hand, kerosene, diesel, gasoline should be no problem to refine, I rented a few boats to run the coastal transportation business. It just so happened that one of my clan uncles was working as a comprador in Jardine Matheson, and in the past two years, kerosene, diesel, and gasoline have been transported into Shanghai from other places, and by the way, there is also heavy oil, and many of the new ships in the United States are made of heavy oil, and heavy oil is good, unlike coal, which can allow cargo ships to carry more goods, and the oil-burning ships will run faster. I'll just give it to you at the price, and I won't let you explain it to the above, don't you think? ”

"You want to buy from the refinery?"

"Host Yan, host Yan, come out quickly."

"What's frizzy?" Yan Yuwen scolded, compared with Feng Zhengxing, he is more strict with factory management.

"Great, the handsome man is here."

"What?" Yan Yuwen was taken aback, and hurriedly got up and walked outside the house, he couldn't even take care of Zhu Gu Tong, if he wanted to say that Zhu Gu Tong was also a bold lord, he felt that since Yan Yuwen didn't say that he couldn't go, he could also go to see this legendary Yu Shuai.

The chimney was straight to the sky, and some thick black smoke was scattered directly into the sky. Several cars stopped at the newly built Huludao, with a large group of soldiers in front and behind.

Smelling the turbid gas emitted in the air, Qin Yu let out the filthy breath that had just been inhaled into his nasal cavity, which was also the sequelae of industrialization. The pollution of the temporary factory is not much serious, just happened to be in the downwind outlet, and wait for the equipment to treat the sewage later, and then get a set, and strengthen the awareness of prevention in this regard.

"Dashuai, why did you get to the factory?" When Yan Yuwen saw that it was indeed Qin Yu, he hurriedly said loudly. When he first met Qin Yu, Yan Yuwen behaved like an arrogant person of insight. However, after entering Fengtian, seeing Qin Yu's governance in Fengtian, Yan Yuwen was convinced from the bottom of his heart, so he had such a gaffe.

"I went to Liaoxi, and I stopped by to have a look." Qin Yu said with a smile, and saw that the only one behind Yan Yuwen was Zhu Gutong who was not wearing a factory uniform, "Who is this?" ”

"This is my classmate when I was in the United States, I wish Gu Tong came to the refinery to buy some goods and sell them in Shanghai." Yan Yuwen didn't expect Zhu Gu Tong to come out with him, but since Qin Yu asked, he had to answer.

"It turns out that he is also a top student who graduated from the United States, why do you want to do business?" Most of the international students who have returned from the United States are engaged in real business, and there are not many compradors like Zhu Gutong.

"I'm afraid to say it will make Yu Shuai laugh." Zhu Gu Tong briefly talked about his experience abroad. I'm a little ashamed that I didn't learn anything.

"It turns out that this is the case, three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion, and it is good to learn from such an exhibition as Yan Sponsor. However, if the business is bigger, it can also play the role of a rich family to serve the country. Qin Yu smiled and said, "It is worthy of staying in the ocean, and your understanding of oil is very insightful, whether it is the plane or the car that the European powers are fighting with now." Or ships, the future is inseparable from oil, and there is business to be done. ”

"Then Yu Shuai means agreed?" I wish Gu Tong a happy authenticity.

"Yuwen, what is the current capacity of the refinery? There is nothing wrong with crude oil procurement. Qin Yu didn't answer Zhu Gutong directly, but asked Yan Yuwen.

"Now the refinery has an annual capacity of refining 47,000 tons of oil, which can refine about 6,000 tons of gasoline, more than 13,000 tons. More than 890 tons of kerosene and more than 17,000 tons of heavy oil. It can supply all the oil used in Mukden now, and there is still a lot of surplus. Yan Yuwen said.

Qin Yu nodded. The provincial government has made statistics on the annual import of oil in Fengtian Province, and there are more than 3,000 cars and transport trucks, which is more than the total number of all provinces in Guannai combined, and it is also because of the transportation needs of several large industrial zones in Taonan and Benxi. As for the plane, it won't be much for the time being. Combined with the newly built ships and the lubricating oil used in other machinery, the oil consumption of Mukden Province is about a little more than 10,000 tons a year. After all, at this time, many machines used coal as power. The refinery's ability to extract 47,000 tonnes of oil a year looks like there is some overcapacity.

"Since there are many, you can sell some of them." Qin Yu nodded. Compared with the increase in cars in Shanghai, there are not many cars, anyway, it is not wasted, and the goods are pressed there, and it is a good thing to sell them if they support a Chinese businessman.

"Thank you Yushuai." Zhu Gu Tong was overjoyed when he heard Qin Yu's promise.

"Dashuai, now Fengtian can't digest so much oil. Should we appropriately reduce the import of some oilseeds? "I wish you all the best.

"No need, the factory can import as much as it can refine, and there is always a way to make oil." Qin Yu waved his hand and said, next year, the cars and trucks owned by Fengtian will be at least doubled. Agricultural tractors have also appeared some diesel engine-powered, in short, the refined oil is not worried about the market, and some crude oil imports are good to put here as reserves. The reserves of the Daqing oilfield are too large, and it will take at least a few years for the Northeast to have the strength to confront Japan. As oil becomes more and more important, especially in warships, automobiles, and airplanes, countries are bound to build up their own oil reserves in the future. As long as the price is right, it's okay to eat aggressively at this time.

"Since there is still a surplus of refining capacity, can we also make other derivative products? I've heard that foreigners can produce a lot of products in the petrochemical industry. "In later generations, everything in clothing, food, housing and transportation was inseparable from chemical products. Qin Yu naturally would not forget this.

"All kinds of lubricating oil, paraffin, coke, asphalt, and some other fertilizers, synthetic plastics and other industries really need to be improved, and the achievements of the Republic of China in these aspects are too shallow." Yan Yuwen nodded.

"In this case, let's start doing it, I think the refinery can appropriately set up a special research room to study the synthetic products of petroleum in the chemical field. By the way, you are now running transportation along the coast? The second half of the sentence is said to Zhu Gutong.

"I rented a few small boats, ran a sea transport, transported coal, cloth, machinery, and grain, as long as I could make money." Zhu Gu Tong nodded.

"Have you ever thought about ocean shipping?" Qin Yu asked.

"I want to too, but there are no big ships, just the thousands of small boats with hundreds of tons in my hand, I am afraid that I will lose even my underwear." Zhu Gu Tong smiled bitterly, "I also had this idea in the United States, but renting a ship over there is too expensive to rent, and foreigners don't easily lend to us Chinese." ”

"I have a fleet in my hand, running freight from the United States and Europe, and I am going to transfer it to run transportation between the United States and East Asia in a few months, since you are familiar with the United States, why don't you help me manage the fleet?" Now that the fleet is in charge of the Russians, Rasputin has fallen, Qin Yu naturally wants to take this fleet into his own hands, and the phenomenon of German submarines attacking ordinary merchant ships is becoming more and more common. It is too dangerous to continue to run the cargo of the United States and Europe, and if you are not careful, you will be sent to the bottom of the sea by German submarines.

"How much cargo capacity does Yu Shuai have?" Zhu Gu Tong asked.

"Fifty or sixty thousand tons, one is more than 20,000 tons, one is more than 10,000 tons, and the remaining three are more than 6,000 tons." Qin Yu didn't remember the specific data very clearly, but eight or nine were not far from ten.

"So much. Yu Shuai said that the fleet is all handed over to me to take care of? "I wish Gu Tong great joy.

"I'll take care of you for a while, and if you do it well, I'll let those Tsarists do it."

"Okay, good, don't worry, Yu Shuai likes to run boats when he is young, and he will not disappoint Yu Shuai." Zhu Gu Tong hurriedly said, for fear that Qin Yu would regret it.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

The oil refinery has already been built, and the heavy oil used by the shipyard in the future can already be refined by itself. Diesel, gasoline, and kerosene can be self-sufficient for the time being, and by next year they will have to build a car factory, as well as a large engine factory, and a train and locomotive factory.

After inspecting the refinery. On the way back, Qin Yu thought in his heart that he wanted to get rich. Build roads first, this sentence will work anywhere. At this time, in order to improve transportation, it is necessary not only to build roads, but also to create an industry that manufactures vehicles.

"What's the matter, I didn't offend you, I just came back. Just show me your face. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhou Yingxue's bitter gourd face, and Qin Yu couldn't help but joke.

"As soon as you run away, it's only a few days, and when you come back, you don't know anything, don't speak." Chen Xinyi glanced at Qin Yu.

"What's going on?" Qin Yu asked.

"It's not my brother's business, he had a fight with his sister-in-law. I got my sister-in-law out and ran to Mukden, but now it's good, and I want to help persuade people to go back. Zhou Yingxue had a bitter face, she was worried about her brother's affairs.

"What am I talking about?" Qin Yu stretched, "If you want me to say, your brother's jar is too acidic, and your sister-in-law will be suspicious when she goes out." But your sister-in-law is also a little more lively, she doesn't have anything to do, she stays at home honestly, watches the play, drinks tea or something, isn't it very good, it's just a mess. ”

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, although the family seems to be rich and noble this week, there will occasionally be something that makes people fuck up, and it is difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs, Qin Yu is too lazy to take care of it.

"You will say others, don't think that I don't know what you did outside, there are two at home, one outside, and I am still a White Russian woman, I heard that the children are about to be born." Zhou Yingxue snorted.

"What did my mother say about this?" Qin Yu asked tentatively, after getting around with Ye Lilina a few times, he never wanted to make people's stomachs bigger, this matter was inadvertently spread by Qin Yu to the family, otherwise no one would dare to chew this tongue root.

"What else, you can't let the flesh and blood of the Qin family wander outside, take advantage of the fact that you haven't been born yet, welcome people in, my mother said to let you check a little in the future, you want to take a concubine, which family can't ask for it, but you want to ask for a foreign daughter-in-law, and you can't say anything when you enter the door in the future, it's like a stranger." Chen Xinyi said.

"Forget it, it's not convenient for her to move to the Marshal's Mansion, it's embarrassing, just let her come and walk around a few times in the future." Ye Lilina lives in another manor, Qin Yu just wants her to be recognized by the family, as for whether they live together, we will see later.

Chen Xinyi, Zhou Yingxue still needs to be persuaded again, Yu'e has already come in to call someone, saying that Chasayev is here.

"This annoying second ancestor." Hearing that it was Chasayev, Zhou Yingxue couldn't help but have some disgust on her face.

"Someone else sent money, what do you dislike?" Qin Yu said with a smile.

"What do you want so much money for, are you going to buy a manor outside to raise a child?" Zhou Yingxue asked.

"Where's the matter?" Qin Yu snorted, he usually doesn't look at Chasayev very well, but this time it's really timely, if there is any deal, he will blackmail him less.

"General Qin, General Qin, you must save me." Qin Yu, who originally thought that something was wrong, didn't expect Chasayev to ask for help when he met.

"Mr. Viscount, what's wrong? Could it be that with your position in the Tsarist Empire, can anyone still threaten you? Qin Yu asked puzzled. Can't your uncle give you protection? ”

"General Qin, I, my uncle was murdered and killed by several dukes of Prisvich, and they have sent people to hunt me down in the Far East." Chasayev said with a look of panic.

"What? How could there be such a thing? Qin Yu was also taken aback, he didn't expect that Rasputin, who was almost covering the sky with one hand in the palace of Tsarist Russia, was assassinated.

Chasayev told the story of the incident in a panic, Qin Yu also listened for a while, it turned out that this Rasputin was a hungry ghost, and the duke took advantage of the lady's beauty to ask the lady to invite Rasputin to the manor as a guest, Rasputin went up in the middle, and the result was self-evident, this guy who was said to have had sex with most women in the Tsar's Palace, including the empress, died like this. The peony flower died, and the ghost should be the case.

"What unfortunate news." Qin Yu sighed, as soon as Rasputin died, the Chasayev in front of him completely lost his usefulness. If it weren't for Raspukin's tiger skin, the second ancestor in front of him would be worthless.

"You can rest assured that you can live in Fengtian City, others will not mess around in Fengtian City, and I can't guarantee it if you leave Fengtian."

Qin Yu is not the kind of master who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge after all, and for the sake of the happy cooperation in the past, he can only help him so much.

"Thank you, General Qin." Chasayev nodded repeatedly, and after losing Raspukin's backer, Chasayev seemed to quickly put himself in the right position.

It's really troublesome, without this corrupt element, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to transport some skilled workers from Tsarist Russia to Fengtian in the future, and I'm afraid that Ni Jiting's side is not as good as Chasayev's side.

"Hey, Director Zhang, it's me, Qin Yu."

"Dashuai, what are you looking for a lowly position?" Zhang Jingxuan said on the other end of the phone.

"It's not a big deal, now there is a serious shortage of technical workers in Fengtian, Germany in the past, and now the United States are still doing well in technology, you discuss with Governor Tian to see which technical schools Fengtian is suitable for, and you have to start trying to do it." Well, well, that's it, nothing else. ”

"Hey, Chen Tao."

"There are a lot of Tsarist Russians who come to our Fengtian, you have to create a certain atmosphere to encourage them to write letters, or contact relatives and friends in the country, publicize the current superior conditions of our Fengtian, and encourage them to come to Fengtian to start a business."

"What does the marshal mean by all means to get those skilled or rich Tsarist Russians to Mukden?"

"Yes, yes, that's what it means."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yu shrugged his shoulders, according to the number of Tsarist Russian people who fled to the Heilongjiang area at this time, because this big war should be unsustainable in Tsarist Russia, and the October Revolution will not be long before it comes, and the pattern of the world will change again.
