Chapter 8: Guerrilla (27)

On the ferry boat of the Xiangjiang River, after once again tasting the feelings of hitting the water in the middle stream and curbing the flying boat, a group of people walked towards Zhurong Peak in Hengshan. Along the way, watching the scenery and seeing the folk customs, I also enjoyed it. Today is already a small year, it is the day when the tour cadre class reports for duty, and the tour cadre class does not know what to think, and the day of the class is selected as February 15, do you not know that February 18 is Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is sad every year?

In the countryside, it is already a scene of the New Year, and it is only after the small year that it really enters the New Year stage, and the farm work in the field is put down. twenty-four, sweep the house; Twenty-five, grinding tofu; Twenty-six, kill the pig; Twenty-seven, catch up with the big set; Twenty-eighth, the glutinous cake; Twenty-nine, go and drink; Chinese New Year's Eve, great reunion; On the first day of the Lunar New Year, he kicked his ass and messed around.

"I've saved money for the Chinese New Year this year!" Liang Cailin said with a smile: "In previous years, the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, our brothers and sisters would bring their children to my house in Xiguan to eat New Year's dinner together, observe the New Year together, and wait for me to send red envelopes for the New Year. ”

"We'll accompany you for the New Year this year, and you can send it to us then." Zhang Zhinong said with a smile.

Mo Di also smiled and said, "I just saved it." Last year, during the Chinese New Year in southern Anhui, I had money in my hands, and each brother of the 1056 regiment was given two silver dollars, and the brothers were so happy that they blew up the camp and almost didn't buy out the station. ”

Liu Jingzhi shook his head and said, "Tianzong, if you lead troops like you, China will not have an unwinnable war. It is a pity that most of our officers have regarded serving as soldiers and officers as an industry, a earning livelihood. Woe to the people, drink the blood of the soldiers, and there will also put Guangyang in the purse to the brothers under his command. ”

Li Shigui sighed and said: "Those of us who have been soldiers for more than ten years, except for being soldiers, we can't make a living. I confess that I was paid nothing, and that a regiment was never full, and every time the inspector came to count the number of people, he went to other regiments to borrow people. There is no salary, let alone supporting a family, and there is not even entertainment expenses for the inspectors. I heard last night that the number of people in Tianzhong's team will increase more and more, and I can't figure it out after thinking about it for a night, but now I finally understand, you actually use soldiers to engage in smuggling, and you are too bold! It is also your Gui Army, if you don't skin you, put it in our 89th Army, if you have private fishing and don't respect your superiors, you will be removed from your post tomorrow. ”

Luo Jinlun from Yunnan thought about it, and still said it: "I came out for training this time, Boss Long didn't give me a penny, all the expenses have to be raised by myself, brothers, you have to help me." ”

"Self-financing? How to raise? Liu Jingzhi asked in surprise: "We will only reach out to the top and ask for money, let us get the money ourselves, really not." ”

Mo Di also asked curiously: "How does Brother Luo want to raise it?" I won't let your guard squad go to the dock to carry bags! ”

Luo Jinlun shook his head: "That's not going to happen." He lowered his voice and said: "I came out of Yunnan and brought more than 3,000 catties of fine cloud soil, I calculated it, if I sell it at a low price, the profit I get is barely enough for me for more than three months, if I can sell it at a good price, I can make a lot of money, not only can I live a good life for three months, but it is not impossible to get a small building like Brother Liang in Xiguan, Guangzhou." If you are interested, you may wish to do this business as well, earn a little money, and improve your life. ”

As soon as they heard that it was this thing, all the people were silent, and several people looked at each other, and no one dared to answer. Chairman Chiang advocated the New Life Movement, and he hated this thing, and although there were big tobacco houses everywhere in society, as a member of the disciplined forces, he was rarely contaminated in peacetime. Several people know that Luo Jinlun from Yunnan is also forced to do this, if he does not engage in this business, the Colonel Luo in front of him will have no life, a person who can't live a life, it is better to talk to him about the new life movement, it is better to play the piano to the cow.

I think so, but if I want to support Luo Jin in selling big tobacco paste in action, several people dare not express their position. On the other hand, Li Shigui from northern Jiangsu was even more lawless, he whispered: "This thing, if it can get to us, is quite valuable, but there are too many checks along the way, and it is too difficult to pass through the Japanese-occupied area." Along the way, there were Japanese, the New Fourth Army, the Gui system, and the military commanding troops, and if one was bought, the second could not be bought, and if everyone bought it, we would have no profit. After a while, he laughed self-deprecatingly: "Even if I want to do it, I can't do it." ”

Liu Jingzhi glanced at Li Shigui, difficulty, there is no difficulty in doing anything, the main thing is to see whether the degree of difficulty is proportional to the profit, his troops are in the Nanchang area, this area was beaten to pieces in the previous battle on the southern front of the Yangtze River, and now the economy is in recession, the people are not making a living, the rich people have left, and it is still a problem to stay to maintain a basic life, not to mention the high-end products such as big smoke, after the Red Army left in southern Jiangxi, the economy has recovered to a certain extent, but it is still far from being rich, and Jiang Dagongzi is there to implement the new economic policy, A comprehensive investigation of pornography, gambling and drugs shows that there is no market for this thing there. He wanted to do it, but he didn't know where to start. said: "The government moved westward to Fudu, and the smoking gun also moved westward, but the farther west, the cheaper the tobacco, and we did the opposite, which may not be beneficial." ”

"I can't do it." Zhang Zhinong said with certainty: "Our First Group Army has always been very strict in managing this aspect, and our commander is a law student, and sometimes he has a little tendon, and he would rather not have enough to eat and be hungry than get this kind of money." ”

Mo Di doesn't smoke big cigarettes, he doesn't know much about this market, and when he heard everyone say this, he knew that Luo Jinlun would be very disappointed, and said comfortingly: "I'll ask if I can sell some in the Anqing area." Anyway, let's get some out of it first to ensure Brother Luo's basic life. ”

Sure enough, Luo Jinlun glanced at everyone in disappointment, and finally set his eyes on Mo Di, this is really righteous, he doesn't know anything about the big tobacco business, but he actively thinks of ways to solve his life problems. He said with relief: "When I left Yunnan, a cigarette dealer told me that as long as I brought these big cigarettes to Hengshan, I would have income, and he took back the big cigarettes and gave me the bicycle and horse fare, and with these bicycle and horse fares, I could maintain my basic life for three months." It's just that I think this is too inferior, if possible, I will take it to the market and sell it myself, and the profit must be much richer. Tianzong doesn't have to worry about my living expenses, but I still have money for food. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and since that was the case, it was the best.

Just as he was about to stop mentioning this matter, Liang Cailin, who had not spoken, spoke: "Lao Luo, what purchase price did the cigarette dealer give you?" ”

Luo Jinlun talked about a number. Mo Di didn't know whether this number was high or low, Li Shigui had already sighed: It's low! Liu Jingzhi said to Li Shigui: "The price you see is the retail price in the market, that is, the price set by these dealers after selling it to the tobacco house, which must be relatively high." We don't have a number of roads, so we can only watch the dealers make money. ”

"The number of roads, in fact, we also have them." Liang Cailin on the side lowered his head and said while calculating: "Jiangsu is a bit far away, especially in northern Jiangsu, but Guangdong is very close, we can get these tobacco soil to Guangzhou, and the profit is much better than dying on the ground and being depressed by tobacco dealers in Hengshan." ”

Hearing this, Luo Jinlun's expression immediately turned cloudy and clear, and his big eyes full of hope looked at Liang Cailin with a bone.

Liu Jingzhi also heard what Liang Cailin meant, and said happily: "I will also participate in one." ”

Li Shigui also said positively: "I can't help but participate in this kind of good thing." ”

Zhang Zhinong didn't speak, Mo Di asked with a smile: "Brother Zhang, are you afraid that your group army will blame, don't you hear that the generals are outside, the monarch's order is not subject to something, and there are some things, there is no need to report to the upper peak." ”

Zhang Zhinong smiled and said, "I listen to you, if you participate, I will participate." ”

Mo Di smiled and said to Liang Cailin: "If I participate with Brother Zhang, will this profit not be enough?" ”

Liang Cailin laughed and said: "The profits are earned, and there is a lot of power, if everyone participates, it will be necessary to think in the long run." ”

"How do you think long-term?" Luo Jinlun asked.

Liang Cailin looked left and right, stopped, put a few people together, and whispered: "In this way, after we go to the You cadre class, we will rent a private house at the foot of Hengshan Mountain, leave the six guard classes there, and the six of us will go up the mountain by ourselves, everything will be simple, and we will live a life of self-reliance for three months." The six guard squads were divided into two teams, with Brother Luo's guard captain being the captain of one team and my guard captain being the captain of the other team. Brother Luo's team was responsible for going back and forth to Kunming, and then transporting several batches of cloud soil over, and the other team was responsible for sending it to Guangzhou for sale. Trying to do business six times in three months, at the end of the touring class, each of us can not only graduate, but also bring some money home, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone. ”

Luo Jinlun's eyes widened, he just wanted to find some rations, but he didn't expect that in Liang Cailin's eyes, it was a way to make a fortune. Liu Jingzhi looked at Liang Cailin, and secretly sighed that this person really dared to ask for any money, Mo Di also nodded secretly, this person even dared to earn the money of the Red Army, what kind of money in this world did he dare not ask!

Everyone discussed and stopped, quickened the pace of their feet, and rushed to the foot of Hengshan as soon as possible, found a suitable yard, and implemented their plan to make a fortune. Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, completely forgetting that this was a crime, Mo Di sighed, what happened to him? will actually roll into it, not to make money, purely to help friends, we must let Zhao Guolong pay more attention, and not make any sequelae.
