The location of Fengtian Railway Station is close to the North Market, which is already the most prosperous area of Fengtian Commerce, and with the unification of the three eastern provinces, the North Market has the prototype of the Northeast Logistics Center.

At the same time, Mukden was also a production center, textile mills, food factories, garment factories, flour mills, etc., all of which relied on the orders of the Entente countries to develop rapidly, and a large number of goods had to be shipped to the Far East, of course, Japan and Britain also purchased a large number of raw materials from the Northeast.

There is a huge commodity exchange, like a magnet, absorbing more and more people and funds, there are more than a dozen financial institutions near the railway station, there are foreign banks, Fengtian Bank, and Shanxi Jin merchants' money bank ticket number, one by one, each of them is shoulder to shoulder, personnel exchanges are endless.

Financial institutions are the link of transactions, the prosperity of these institutions proves the prosperity of Fengtian, Fan Xudong and Zhou Xueyuan are well-informed people, when they see this situation, they are immediately surprised, Fengtian's commerce and trade are far more prosperous than imagined.

"Fifth master, I really didn't expect that Guanwai would be so prosperous, and the situation is not worse than Tianjin Wei!"

"That's right, people say that Kanwai is a bitter cold place, and you can freeze your ears in winter, and no one wants to come over, but now the situation is very different. Have you noticed that there are constantly police patrols around the station, and those Liba and coachmen are well-behaved and honest, and there are no indiscreet people coming and going, just from the train station, you can see that the security in Fengtian is much stronger than in Tianjin! ”

Railway stations have always been crowded places, and at present, China's major stations and docks are controlled by gangs shili, and those who want to do business at the stations, such as the Liba pickers, as well as the coachmen, all have to pay the gang protection money so that they can come and do business.

And because of the meddling of the gangsters. The security situation at the train station is very bad, and petty theft and even open robbery happen from time to time, and everyone is not even surprised.

However, these phenomena, which are very common in other regions, are all extinct at Fengtian Station, and the police patrolling back and forth greatly ensure that everything is in order, and this order is precisely what is lacking in other parts of China.

The station is not only staffed, but also cleaners, who are constantly cleaning. It looks more neat and standardized, which makes Fan Xudong and Zhou Xueyuan amazed.

"I'm not going to hide it, after I arrived in Mukden, I felt a little Japanese!"

"That's right, that's the rule of Mukden. I just don't know if you can adapt to it! Song Zhongyi arrived at the station and came to greet them. Zhou Xueyuan and Song Zhongyi are old friends. Everyone was very happy to meet.

Zhou Xueyuan took Song Zhongyi's hand and said with a little reproach: "Old Song, you had difficulties in your business at the beginning, why didn't you look for us, don't you still believe in our family?" ”

"How can I be, I just can't bear to trouble you anymore. And I'm pretty good right now, aren't I? ”

"It looks good, the spirit is much better, but the person has lost a lot of weight, and he has suffered a lot, right?"

"Fifth brother. If you want to do something, don't be afraid of suffering, what I'm afraid of is that people won't let you do things with peace of mind. ”

Song Zhongyi's words just spoke to Fan Xudong's heart, this is indeed the voice of the people who run their industry, they are indeed not afraid of hardships and fatigue when they run factories, what they are most afraid of is that the government will drag them back, outsiders and foreigners will persecute them, and they will be exploited by their own people, under double pressure, it is too difficult to do something, which is also the reason why Fan Xudong was attracted by the conditions opened by Fengtian.

Looking at Song Zhongyi's situation now, Fan Xudong's heart is a lot more steady, and it seems that Fengtian is indeed a place where he can do practical things.

"Fifth brother, Mr. Fan, you go to my house to rest first, and then I will go to ask Director Zhang, you can talk to him specifically, don't hide it from Director Zhang, don't look young, but he has seen people, has the ability, and has financial resources, the handsome Zhang Zuolin is obedient to him, and he can definitely provide a lot of help."

"Mr. Song, don't worry, let's talk about it first and find out the situation in Fengtian, otherwise we won't be able to move all the family business over just by listening to one side."

"Mr. Fan is a cautious person, then you can just take a look, I dare to say that the environment of Fengtian is one of the best in the country, and it is difficult to surpass! The public security conditions are good, the government has preferential tax revenues, and they can get sufficient loans from banks, and they have industrial groups as backers, so they do not have to be exploited by all kinds of exploitation. In particular, Mr. Fan wants to set up a chemical company, and Fengtian has more discounts, and Director Zhang personally promised, saying that you are filling the gap in the three eastern provinces, and you will have any support if you want it! ”

Song Zhongyi took Zhou Xueyuan and Fan Xudong to the carriage, and kept introducing the various benefits of Fengtian in his mouth, both of them listened carefully, Fan Xudong asked questions of concern from time to time, and Song Zhongyi also answered them one by one.

"Listening to Mr. Song's introduction, I have the bottom in my heart, it seems that this trip to Fengtian is right, I really didn't expect that there is such a government on the ground in China that cares about industrial development, it is simply an outlier!"

"Old Song, Zhang Yuting is just a bandit, Sun Liechen, Zhang Zuoxiang and others around him are also reckless people, I haven't heard who is a talent for governing the country, can a bandit leader understand industrial construction?"

"Fifth master, what you say is a bit outdated, who stipulates that bandits can't understand industry, and now Fengtian is not in charge of the economy is not those old people who are in charge of the army, but the new governor Wang Yongjiang, Mr. Wang is a famous scholar and talented. In addition, in terms of economic development, Zhang Shuyan, the director of the Reclamation Department, also has the right to speak, and the planning of the North Market is from his hand, and I also met him at the beginning, so I decided to go to Fengtian. ”

Zhou Xueyuan frowned slightly, and said: "Old Song, you mentioned Zhang Tinglan several times as soon as we met, does this kid really have such great ability?" ”

"It's true, he understands the economy, understands civil affairs, and can lead troops to fight, and now he is the director of the Reclamation Department, and he still has the rank of brigade commander. His father Zhang Zuo is quite the overseer of Jilin, but I am afraid that his position will be one step higher, and the future is immeasurable! ”

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Song Zhongyi's face: "Fifth brother, I heard that Ling Ai's daughter and Zhang Shuyan have a good relationship, the man is not married to the woman, this is a godsend, if you get married, it will be good for the children and your family." I don't underestimate your Zhou family, don't look at your name as the name of Nanzhang and Northern Zhou, known as the representative of the industrial industry, but your ability to make money is too bad, not to mention anything else, it is the northern market held by Zhang Shuyan, and the land price is at least several times that of your family property. ”

"Old Song, did you take other people's money and say good things about him in front of me, I don't believe it, a young man under twenty years old has such a great ability, is he a demon?"

"Fifth brother, I won't raise the bar with you, after you see it, you will know how powerful this young man is!" Song Zhongyi said with a smile: "No matter what, I think my niece's vision is much better than yours!" After saying that, Song Zhongyi hahadaxiao.

Just when they were chatting, Zhang Tinglan also ushered in a dusty guest, it was Kuang Rongguang who came, since he arrived in Fengtian, Kuang Rongguang did not have much leisure time, some time ago in Benxi to investigate, until Benxi Lake Coal and Iron Company was completely sorted out, Fengtian regained the management power, Kuang Rongguang had some time.

However, he also knows that Benxi Lake Coal and Iron Company is not a real controlled enterprise by Fengtian, if you want to develop the steel industry, you must have your own independent factory, after leaving Benxi, he went to Anshan, the conditions here are better than Benxi, very suitable for coal and iron joint venture, the Japanese expedition team kept coming, wanting to take Anshan as their own, but they were all suppressed by Zhang Zuolin.

Fengtian should also strengthen the investigation, after figuring out the situation, Fengtian should also start as soon as possible, based on Anshan, to establish its own iron and steel enterprises, Kuang Rongguang inspected for more than a month, just handed in the report, and got up to Jilin, after the unification of the three provinces, the mineral resources of Jilin and Heiji provinces should also be developed.

Arranging for Kuang Rongguang to go to Jilin is exactly Zhang Tinglan's idea, Jilin is an area that Zhang Tinglan can really control, and it is absolutely necessary to increase its development, in later generations, Jilin is sandwiched between Heilongjiang and Liaoning, there are not too many resources, and heavy industry cannot be compared with these two provinces.

However, the situation of the Republic of China is different, Jilin's territory is larger than that of later generations, with Changchun and Harbin line, has been extending to the north, and the eastern half is almost all Jilin's territory, including the Sanjiang Plain, as well as important coal fields such as Jixi Shuangyashan, which is a resource-rich area.

And Jilin also has an important resource, that is, gold mines, Huadian's Jiapigou gold mine has a long history of development, to the late Qing Dynasty, began large-scale mining, in later generations Jiapigou gold mine was once the country's largest gold mine, the cradle of China's non-ferrous metal industry, a total of more than 100 tons of gold.

In this era of the gold standard, gold represents wealth, how can Zhang Tinglan not be tempted, now Jilin is vast and sparsely populated, the conditions for the development of industry and agriculture are not very mature, only gold mining is the easiest way to get money, can make a fortune quickly, but also for Jilin to accumulate a little development fund.

With a stable supply of gold, the currency can be stabilized, and it can also purchase important foreign jishu and equipment, Zhang Tinglan is not looking forward to a day or two, so he is very happy to see Kuang Rongguang come back.

"Mr. Kuang, thank you so hard!"

"Hard work is nothing, this is the job, I looked at the situation of Jiapigou, the mining belt around Jiapigou is 50 kilometers long, one to three meters thick, according to my estimates, if the development is good, the annual gold output should be about two tons, in the country's gold mines, it is also one of the best."

"Two tons of gold is not a small amount! can be exchanged for three or four million oceans, if it is placed in the bank, it can issue about 20 million oceans, which is simply a windfall, and Zhang Tinglan can't help but be gearing up.

"Humble words, don't be too happy, it's still a little troublesome!" (To be continued......)
