Chapter 159 Shandong
Down jacket processing is indeed a very good business, Beiping Yang Feng and Liu Haining own 60 percent of the shares of the duck duck collective, the scale has been expanded twice, now there are nearly 20,000 workers, and even the machine king Chuanming has begun to imitate, but even this production is still in short supply, is subject to the supply of duck down.
This is a market without competitors, although down jacket processing actually appeared after the First World War, China also had such factories in the twenties, but no one can solve the most fatal problem of delight, they do not have Yang Feng's wide variety of high-density chemical fiber fabrics, which beauty will not like to wear a hair, that is to say, as long as the problem of down supply is solved, even if the entire Beiping City millions of people have become down jacket workers, then there is no need to worry about the problem of sales, this is a world range of markets, just like Yang Feng's acrylic wool textiles.
This is also the second alliance in Yang Feng's planning, the Down Alliance, first of all, the first target is Han Fuyu, and the Weishan Lake District is a huge breeding base.
As for Han Fuyu's personal problem, this is not within Yang Feng's consideration, and many of this guy's things are just false rumors, especially his so-called big and coarse jokes, which are simply jokes, even Yang Feng, a guy who has only learned a few ancient texts and is almost forgotten, can drag a few sentences in this era, so that those flattering compliments can be written and graceful, not to mention that he is a genuine talent, and he is also a talent who has been a rural teacher.
It is also said that he kills people like hemp, and 80% of the people killed by Han Fuyu are selling big cigarettes, and Yang Feng also advocates treating such people with the most cruel methods, and he is even encouraging Yuan Liang and Yu Xuezhong to completely ban smoking in Pingjin and Tianjin during this time. Then he handed over the captured tobacco dealers to him for disposal, and all of them were sent to Chongqing to open mines, which was called re-education through labor.
And there is a lot of hope for this, because of the great development of industry, there is a bit of labor shortage in both Pingjin and Tianjin, and many workers who have a little spare money are lured to smoke a lot of cigarettes is an important reason. This has already aroused public indignation among the capitalists, who are not prepared to ban opium, but through cruel anti-smoking methods, they have pulled the price of big cigarettes to the point where ordinary workers are daunted, so as to solve the problem of workers smoking big cigarettes, and as for the rich people who like to smoke, then they will smoke it!
Otherwise, would they still watch them save their money for the family?
There is also Han Fuyu's biggest stain, that is, the problem of him fleeing without a fight in the Anti-Japanese War, which is really a bit wronged to him. When his troops retreated, they had already lost more than half of their losses with the Japanese army, and even he himself was almost captured by the Japanese in the counterattack on Texas, and the captains of his guards were all killed.
The bald guy killed him because he wanted to kill him a long time ago, he was eye-to-eye with him over there during the Fujian Incident, and he even wanted to hit the Yang Army with the Northeast Army during the Xi'an Incident, so it's strange that the bald guy didn't want to kill him! He is not a veteran of the dang country, and he is not a well-behaved dog who is hot-headed. Thirdly, if he is reasonably charged, not only will there be no criticism if he is killed, but will be considered to be enforcing military law. If such a good opportunity is let go, it will be unreasonable.
With a more complicated mentality, Yang Feng accepted Han Fuyu's invitation, but he didn't go by himself, along with Song Zheyuan, who went back to Leling's hometown to sweep the tomb, because Jinan did not have an airport that could take off and land Aunt Junker, so the two took the guard by train.
As soon as he got off the train at Jinan Station, Yang Feng couldn't help but complain to Han Fuyu: "Chairman Han." Why don't you even have a decent airfield in Jinan City. ”
"Brother Yang, I only have a few small planes in my hands, how can I use any big airport, and the Jinan railway is convenient, and the civil aviation planes are all to Qingdao and then transfer to the train." Han Fuyu said with a smile.
"That's right. What if the brother invests in Jinan? You also know that I have an airline, but now several major routes are monopolized by China, my special plane to fly they don't care, they have opinions on passenger flights, if you want to fly, you have to pay them, so I am ready to stop the southern route, mainly in our north China flight. Yang Feng said.
At the beginning, he flew through a short period of Shanghai, Nanjing, Hankou several routes, and later because of the conflict between the route and the Chinese Airlines, so it was basically dedicated to Duolun to engage in air transportation, and the other is to provide charter services for businessmen in Pingjin and Tianjin, and the regular operation of the route is only Beiping direct flight to Hankou, and then transfer to Chongqing, Beiping to Taiyuan, in addition to Tianjin to Nanjing, these three routes, although it can not make a lot of money, but can maintain business, without the need for gold sources to subsidize it.
"Brother Yang can have such a good intention, and I, as a brother, naturally welcome it with both hands." Han Fuyu said with a smile, he had already known what Yang Feng's plane was carrying in Chahar, and if the two had some secret transactions in the future, they would not need to take the railway at all.
The last time he helped the Germans to sell the 1,000 shells, he was the transportation fee for a shell and a Mauser rifle, but he didn't dare to use a train for the sake of secrecy, but took a truck from Beiping all the way to Longkou, and then dumped it on a German merchant ship in a small boat.
At that time, if Jinan could take off and land Junkers planes, at least half of the journey he wouldn't have to worry about.
"Chairman Han, the brother's airfield can't just take off and land passenger planes." Yang Feng said with a smile.
"What does Brother Yang mean?" Han Fuyu looked at him suspiciously.
"The skies of Shandong must also be open to my fighters." Yang Feng said that this is his real purpose, not only fighters, but even bombers will have to come over in the future, Shandong is guarding the rear of Pingjin, Yang Feng can't watch it fall into the hands of the Japanese.
Han Fuyu was stunned for a moment, then frowned and began to think about Yang Feng's intentions, and Song Zheyuan next to him said: "Xiang Fang, when you need a plane in the future, can Brother Yang still watch it?" ”
Han Fuyu's eyes lit up, the reason why Sun Dianying was able to win the battle of Duolun was largely due to Yang Feng's air support, from logistics supply to aircraft bombing, it can be said that he made great contributions, if he could introduce Yang Feng's fighter jets into Shandong, then when he needed help in the future, Yang Feng would naturally not stand idly by.
"Hey, it's just a little thing, what else do our own brothers have to say, in the future, as long as it is the plane in your hand, Brother Yang, the sky of Shandong will fly casually." As soon as I think about it, understand this. Han Fuyu immediately said with a smile.
The problem was solved, and the three of them sat in the Maybach car brought by Yang Feng from Beiping, and visited the city of Jinan, I have to say that during the entire Republic of China period, Han Fuyu built Shandong decently, although Jinan was not built for many years at this time. But it's already quite large.
After visiting Jinan City, it is natural that the reception banquet is indispensable, Han Fuyu's subordinates are basically old people of the Northwest Army, including Wen Chenglie, the mayor of Jinan, and Song Zheyuan are old friends for decades.
Han Fuyu invited him to study the issue of eider cooperation. He is ready to set up a separate down company to monopolize the down business in Shandong, hoping to provide technical guidance by the duck duck collective, and the other is the way of cooperation in the future, mainly how to determine the price.
"This is all a trivial matter, and Brother Xiang Fang will promise it to Brother Xiang Fang now. As for the price, I can't say much, we have a special way of negotiating. At the beginning of each year, all suppliers sit down together to negotiate a reasonable price, and then each company comes up with a specific supply, and we will decide the production capacity of the year according to this supply, you don't have to worry about the down has no place to sell, you just need to send it within the contract quantity. We'll buy it at the contract price, and we'll have to collect it if we don't need it, but you also have to complete the supply, otherwise you'll have to be held responsible, or you'll have to pay a fine. Otherwise, we won't use yours in the coming year, and this way can maximize the interests of both of us. Yang Feng said with his tongue wide open. Of course, there is also the quality must be guaranteed, we are very strict with the quality requirements, if there is a quality problem, we will not accept it. He then added.
Han Fuyu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Brother Yang, we won't smash our own brand by ourselves." ”
"Brother Xiang, brother, let me tell you a word of truth, down jacket business, brother, I can at least guarantee to monopolize the entire market for more than 20 years, this is a world market, as long as we can make it, we don't have to worry about no one buying, not to mention Europe, the United States alone has hundreds of millions of pieces, now how much can we do in a year? Hundreds of thousands of pieces. This is a market that never needs to worry about sales, you can sell as much as you can make, and how much we can make depends on how much down you can supply, even if you put all the ducks in Weishan Lake, we can digest it! Last year, our sales combined with domestic and foreign countries were converted into 40 million, this year's down if it can be supplied, then at least doubled, how much is your Shandong tax a year? If nothing else, the ducks alone will feed the Third Route Army. ”
The bright prospect described by Yang Feng immediately made Han Fuyu and his subordinates think about it, 40 million is 80 million, at least 20 million of them fall on the down, they can at least half of the profits, 10 million is really enough to raise the Third Route Army, this is not a duck, this is a lump of gold!
Yang Feng didn't come to Shandong just for down, his main purpose this time was to see if there was a suitable submarine base, after a short stay in Jinan, he and Han Fuyu accompanied Song Zheyuan to his hometown Leling, where they worshiped his parents, and then Yang Feng went to Qingdao.
"Shao Zhou, you can accompany Brother Yang for a trip!" Hearing that Yang Feng was going to Qingdao and then taking a boat trip to the Shandong Peninsula, Han Fuyu hurriedly said to Wu Huawen, who came with him.
"Then there is Brother Lao Shaozhou!" Yang Feng arched his hand at Wu Huawen and said, he was worried that he didn't know someone in Qingdao, and it was not convenient to do things!
Qingdao is not Han Fuyu's territory, it itself is a special city directly under the national government, and now it is actually the territory of Shen Honglie of the Northeast Army, but after losing the Northeast, the once prosperous Northeast Navy has also been unmatched, and the main warships in his hands have gone south to find another high, Shen Honglie has a few small gunboats left, and there is also a marine corps.
"Brother Yang, what are our brothers polite!" Wu Huawen said with a smile.
Yang Feng pays special attention to him, the first lucky general of the Republic of China! Such a person feels down-to-earth with him, and with his auspicious light, it is estimated that there will be dolphins coming out of the sea.
After the two of them arrived in Qingdao by train with their guards, Wu Huawen first took Yang Feng to visit Shen Honglie.
Shen Honglie welcomed Yang Feng very much, especially after hearing that he wanted to visit the coast of the Shandong Peninsula, he immediately arranged for the Tong'an destroyer, which was now the fastest in the Third Fleet, to be his ship.
"Mayor Shen, how dare you do this." Yang Feng was a little surprised, although he didn't really look at this three-hundred-ton old destroyer. But Shen Honglie was very surprised to give him such face.
"Brother Yang is a distinguished guest, and I am ashamed to say it, we have been bullied by the Japanese for so many years, that is, you can give us vents, this little favor is nothing!" Shen Honglie also had a bitter face when he said this, this guy has a strong personality all his life. As a result, the more he lived over the years, the more he lived, the more he lived, the battle with the Jiangkou made the Soviets annihilated, followed by 918, he even had to flee to Guannai in disguise, followed by the Laoshan Incident, the Northeast Navy dispersed, and then the Xuejiamiao Incident, the Northeast Navy officers he had worked so hard to train actually wanted to assassinate him, and then the three cruisers ran away again. Seeing that his fleet, which was huge in the past with a displacement of more than 30,000 tons, now there are only a few thousand tons left.
Yang Feng and Wu Huawen held back a smile and boarded the Tong'an, an old ship built in Germany in 1913, although the name is a destroyer, in fact, it is a large torpedo boat, but although it has been used for 20 years, its performance is still good, and it can run close to 30 knots.
"Brother Shao Zhou. This man, no matter what the circumstances. They can't lose their roots, if the Northeast Army still has the Northeast, then why did they fall to such a point! Standing on the deck, Yang Feng said to Wu Huawen with emotion.
"That is, I think about how horizontal the Northeast Army was when Zhang Zuolin was there. I've seen it, and that's when no one is in sight! Yishui's brand-new Liao 13 rifles, Czech-style machine guns, and cannon barrels are so thick, compared to them, we were called Huazi at that time.
It's a pity. It's only been a few years of work, and the Nuo family business has been ruined like this, if he is still there, he can't let the Japanese get the Northeast. Wu Huawen gloated.
The two of them are talking! I saw Ma Xuexian, the captain of the Tong'an ship, coming over, so he quickly stopped the topic.
"Captain Ma, where is the deepest water along the coast of Shandong?" Yang Feng asked.
"In the north, from Weihai to Ye County, it belongs to the deep water area, and if you want to say that the deepest is naturally Weihai." As he spoke, Ma Xuexian sighed, Weihaiwei, the sad place of the Chinese Navy.
Yang Feng didn't want to discuss this topic with him anymore, after the destroyer Tong'an sailed out of Qingdao Port, according to Yang Feng's requirements, he went all the way north along the coastline, turned into a mountain and turned west, and went to Weihai together for a while, and played here for a day, and then continued to set off to the west.
"Brother Yang, what are you looking for?" Wu Huawen saw the problem, Yang Feng cared about those unmanned coasts along the way, especially the kind of sea with mountains, and even some islands were very interested, and at first glance, there was a purpose, it was definitely not so simple as tourism.
Now it's almost Yantai now, and it's time to go to your hometown of Ye County for another day.
"Brother Shao Zhou, I won't tell you, brother, I want to buy a beautiful place by the sea, and then take a few confidants with me when I am idle, take a sea bath together, go fishing, and then be happy by the way." Yang Feng whispered with a lewd smile.
"That's a good idea!" Wu Huawen showed a yearning expression.
"But I haven't seen a very beautiful place along the way, a few islands are too small, I want to make a big island, and then develop it into a resort, build a few villas, raise some rare birds and beasts, not only I will play by myself in the future, brothers can come together!" Yang Feng then said.
"If it's a bigger island, then you'll have to go to Long Island to find it." Wu Huawen said.
"On the mouth of the Bohai Sea on Long Island, there are often Japanese ships passing by, and I am annoyed to see them now, and they are too far from the shore, so it is inconvenient for anything." Yang Feng said.
"If you look for something close to the shore, and the area is still large, there can be a beach, and the scenery is good, then it is Yangma Island, not far ahead." Wu Huawen said.
Yangma Island really made Yang Feng's eyes shine.
"The place is quite suitable, but with such a big island, can Muping County sell it?" Yang Feng looked at the island in front of him with some confusion and said.
", isn't it up to us to have the final say on the boundary of Shandong? Just a few families on the island, just send two dollars and drive them away. Wu Huawen said arrogantly.
Of course he has the qualifications to be arrogant, this is the commander of Han Fuyu's most trusted pistol brigade, and now he is also the commander of the Jinan garrison, at this time, Mu Ping has just been snatched from Liu Zhennian by them for a few years, and it is the time to shake his prestige.
The two got off the boat in Muping, and rushed straight to the Muping County Government with the guards arrogantly, scaring the county magistrate enough, looking at a group of wolf-like soldiers with pale faces, and when Wu Huawen reported his identity, his legs were about to tremble.
"This Mr. Yang, a distinguished guest from Beiping, Chairman Han's brother, now has a fancy to your Yangma Island here, and is ready to buy it to build a villa, you hurry up and give a total price! This is a great thing, if Mr. Yang's villa is built, you will have big bosses in Beiping, Tianjin and even Shanghai here in the future, and they will have a random leak in their hands to eat and drink in your county. In the Muping County Government, Wu Huawen said to the county magistrate who was bowing down to serve next to him while drinking tea.
"How much money does Mr. Yang come up with?" The county magistrate asked Yang Feng cautiously.
"You can make a price for this, I don't care about that money, I can't make it difficult for the county magistrate, and let the villagers poke their backbones in the back, right?" Yang Feng said very kindly.
The county magistrate looked at the two of them with a sad face, he was thinking about how much he said so as not to offend Wu Huawen.
"Hurry up, Mr. Yang's family has tens of thousands of dollars, and he still cares about this little money!" Wu Huawen said impatiently.
The county magistrate's eyes immediately lit up, and he gave Wu Huawen a grateful look very vaguely, and then gritted his teeth and stretched out a finger. (To be continued......)
