"Chinese, how much is a bag of flour?" A tall Russian merchant grabbed a little and twisted it gently: "The quality is not too good!" ”

The Chinese businessman on the other side didn't pay attention to him at all, and the Fuyuan black market was completely a seller's market, and there was no way to bargain.

"Two golds!"

"What?" The Russian merchant suddenly widened his eyes and roared loudly: "You are robbing, one piece of gold can buy two bags of flour for a period of time, and in just five days, it has quadrupled, what do you want to do?" ”

"I don't want to do anything, I'll just do it at this price, if you don't buy it now, the price will increase in a while, it's not easy for us to get some white noodles, and it takes a lot of effort to transport it, and the animals are cold and cold, and they don't know how much they die of exhaustion."

The Russian on the opposite side shook his head like a rattle: "No, it's too expensive, it's too expensive, at this price, we won't make any money, and we'll lose money!" ”

A Chinese businessman who watched the excitement on the side said with a smile: "We all know how much grain you have, a bag of flour can be sold for at least five or six gold bars, and after deducting the filial piety to the Far Eastern army, one or two can also be dropped." We Chinese pay attention to the face of doing business, everyone has a profit, if we eat dry and wipe clean, and set the price to five gold bars, should you still buy it! ”

"The only thing that can fill your stomach is food, keep gold, and when the time comes, you can only swallow gold and commit suicide!"

Another Shanxi merchant also interjected, and his words immediately amused the people around him, and several Russians were a little annoyed, their faces flushed, and one of them suddenly stretched out his furry paws and grabbed the Chinese merchant's chest.

"Despicable Chinese, do you know who we are? The mighty Russian army will crush you at any moment, just a bunch of miscellaneous pieces! ”

"I don't care who you are. All I know is that you are a bunch of bastards who don't have enough to eat, and they beg us for alms, so get rid of your dogs' paws, or I'll be in the army!" ”

"Stop pretending to be garlic." The Shanxi man spoke again: "We don't know how great Russia is, but we know that there are many Russian girls in the county, and I heard that if you have ten catties of white flour in your country, you can change a daughter-in-law back, if you can bring a few girls over." We can also give you a price reduction! ”

A total of three Russian merchants saw that the Chinese who had been trampled under their feet in the past laughed at them, and they were still so unscrupulous, they finally could not bear it, and the man at the head pushed a Chinese merchant to the ground with a force. At this time, Chinese businessmen were not good at stubble, a total of about a dozen people. Everyone had wooden sticks, bricks, and so on. Crazy smashing.

After a period of fighting, these Chinese businessmen had already seen through the nature of the Russians and were absolutely not polite to them, so the big guy didn't spare his hand at all, and quickly knocked the three Russians to the ground, screaming in pain.

This scene happened to take place in a small market outside Fuyuan County. Coincidentally, at this time, Zhang Tinglan, Zhang Xueliang, Guo Songling and others came to check the situation, and saw Russian businessmen making trouble. Zhang Tinglan hurriedly waved his hand, and a group of six or seven soldiers rushed over and separated the crowd.

Don't look at the Russians, but in the face of the numerically superior Chinese merchants, they still have little resistance, and they are all beaten to the point that their faces are swollen. Several servicemen threw the Russians outside, like dogs dragging them to death.

Due to the conflict, in the entire market, all the Chinese and Russian businessmen stopped what they were doing, stared blankly, Zhang Tinglan waved his hand to them, and then said: "All Russian businessmen and friends, we welcome you to come to purchase materials, but there is a premise, that is, you must abide by the rules of the Chinese side, you can bargain, but don't want to be ruthless, everything must be done according to the rules!" ”

When Zhang Tinglan said this, he glanced at the audience: "Whoever dares to hurt people will be disqualified from trading forever!" ”

This sentence is still very powerful, this black market is simply a full cornucopia, one exchange, at least one hundred percent pure profit, this is simply a crazy number, no one wants to lose this qualification, although it depends on the face of the Chinese, a little awkward in their hearts, but when they think of high profits, they are all honest.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to tell you the good news that a large number of supplies have recently been purchased from Mukden and other places, and they will be shipped here soon, and when the time comes, they will return to their previous shipments and expand their scale. And we have decided to adopt a new model, where you can bid openly, and the highest bidder wins, that is, you just need to prepare enough money for the next step, except for gold, we only accept industrial equipment and munitions, whether new or old, everyone is ready and enjoy a feast! ”

Some Russians do not know Chinese yet, so they can only ask their partners who are already boiling around them, and when they hear that they are going to expand the scale, they are all excited, especially the fact that they can bid openly and mortgage the payment for equipment and arms, which has detonated their enthusiasm.

In the past, arms and equipment could only be traded between the Far Eastern military and the Feng army, and ordinary merchants could only exchange gold honestly and practically, but now that the situation has changed, they suddenly discovered the business opportunities.

China's industry is basically a blank slate, the price of machines is very high, and many factories in Russia have stopped working, and the machines are piled up like scrap metal.

Of course, some of the more powerful merchants were already paying attention to the arms, and if they could get some scrap arms, then they would make more money, and all the Russian merchants could no longer care about continuing to bargain, but hurriedly left, and went to find a way to raise gold and supplies.

"Clumsy words, throwing out this news, I'm afraid it has another deep meaning, right?" Jiang Dengxuan asked with a smile.

"I can't bear the child to catch the wolf, if there is no news, will those Russian gangs make a move!"

"That's right, to put it mildly, I just observed those Russian merchants, most of them ordinary merchants." Li Jinglin said: "But a few of them are in good shape, and their eyes are wandering, they are definitely not businessmen, most of them are spies who came to investigate the news!" ”

"Of course I believe in Li Jianxian's vision, since the door is opened, fresh air can come in, and flies and mosquitoes can also come in, but it is just right for them to be Jiang Gan who stole books and lured the Russians into the trap. The next step is to deal with it and let the Russians know that it is powerful. ”

Since Zhang Tinglan learned that the Russian bandits were becoming more and more rampant, he made every effort to investigate and found that the main conflicts revolved around Fuyuan County, no more than one or two hundred kilometers, and the closer to the county seat, the more looted.

It was already clear that the Russians knew that this was the main smuggling route for the Feng army and their army, and that it was the gathering of large quantities of supplies that led to a frenzied looting. These Russians are not fools either, any gang of bandits, before doing something, knows to investigate intelligence.

On the border, Fuyuan County, which is open to Russia, has become the most intelligent source of intelligence, and I am afraid that in the eyes of the Russians, the opponent this time is still as incompetent as the Manchus, with no intelligence awareness at all, and any news is at their disposal.

After Zhang Tinglan returned to the county seat, he immediately drew up an operation, the core of which was to disguise a large number of supplies to be transported to Fuyuan, and then induce Russian bandits to attack the convoy, and then use superior forces to eliminate the Russian bandits in one fell swoop, and at the same time deter the Russian Far East military, this task was unanimously approved by everyone.

"There are three main tasks for us in the next step, the first is to find out the specific information of the Russian bandits, the second is to pack a convoy and act as a bait to lure the Russians into being fooled, and the third is to strengthen the patrol of the border, and if you encounter a small group of bandits, resolutely fight back!"

Intelligence work has always been a two-way street, the Russians can investigate the Feng army, and the Feng army can also investigate the Russians, and Zhang Tinglan has already put in a lot of effort, and it is not difficult to get the prepared information.

"Humble words, leave the work of this bait to us!" Zhang Xueliang took the initiative to make a request.

"Han Qing, although the other party is said to be Russian bandits, most of them will be mixed with Russian soldiers, and now Russia is also a family of bandits. The Russian soldiers are known as gray cattle in Europe, fierce in combat, and tenacious, you are all new soldiers, it is too dangerous to act as a bait, I think you should participate in ambush operations, so that you can also train the team! ”

"Since you go to the battlefield, you have to go to the most dangerous place, I think this task of luring the enemy will be handed over to our new corps, if the commander-in-chief is worried, you might as well enrich some veterans, the old and the new cooperate with each other, the combat effectiveness is still guaranteed, and don't be too superstitious about the combat effectiveness of the Russian army, they have become like this, what else can be great!"

Guo Songling suddenly spoke, he was asking for battle on behalf of the entire new legion, and Zhang Xueliang nodded again and again when he heard Guo Songling's words.

"Humble words, you don't have to worry, many students have been on the battlefield and can deal with emergencies!"

Zhang Tinglan glanced at Guo Songling slightly, this guy is indeed too important for utilitarianism, if he really loves Zhang Xueliang, he should follow Zhang Tinglan's advice, start from a safe start, and ensure Zhang Xueliang's safety, but this guy took the initiative to fight, and his words were full of blame for Zhang Tinglan.

It seems that Guo Songling just regards his friendship with Zhang Xueliang as a shortcut to his power, and this kind of friend is by no means a real confidant. Zhang Tinglan peeked at Zhang Xueliang and found that he didn't think of this at all, Zhang Tinglan also knew that some things could not be effective by saying it himself, on the contrary, it would attract suspicion.

Therefore, Zhang Tinglan put his opinion on Guo Songling in the depths of his heart, thought about it, and then said: "Since Han Qing is asking for war, this task will be handed over to you, but you must be careful, put safety first, don't be reckless, I will arrange enough reinforcements, as long as the Russians take the bait, they will definitely not be able to escape!"
