Chapter Seventy-Four: Han Ping Returns to China

Smith again proposed to sell the oil field and refinery, and after negotiation with Isaac, an agreement was finally reached that the investment company would invest $8,000 to control Smith's oil field and refinery; Borrow another $20,000 to resume production, and limit production to China at 50,000 barrels at $2 a barrel.

arranged for Woody to purchase 100 trucks and 10 Ford cars, equipment for a bankrupt medium-sized cement plant, 50 tons of copper plates and 100 tons of steel of various specifications according to the requirements of the field telegraph; 10 tons of candy and 10 tons of chocolate, 10 commercial radio stations. Tech books, 100 workers, 20 technicians, and 20 translators hired in Chinatown. All personnel and materials are ready to be shipped to China at the end of August. He gave Woody the business card of the U.S. consular officer, instructed two people to go to China, and asked the U.S. consulate to help set up trading company branches in Shanghai and Xi'an.

The $900,000 plus the $100,000 in cash he brought in had already spent most of it, leaving less than $400,000. Isaac's investment funds could not be easily moved, and the matter of spending money had to be put to an end first.

I have always dreamed and can't forget, that was when I accompanied the old leader to re-walk the Long March, and insisted on going to Maoergai despite his nearly 80 years old. Although I systematically studied the military history of the Red Army's Long March when I was in the military school, when I saw the endless meadow, I felt that books were finally shallow! There is a road there, and it is a big muddy pond with grass growing on top of the mire. I wanted to ask the old leader to tell the story of the grassland, but the old leader was already in tears and couldn't say a word, so he hurriedly asked the nearby garrison to send a helicopter to send the unconscious old leader back to Chengdu for rescue, so as to save his life. I recalled it carefully, and I had never heard the old leader tell the story of his Long March, and I didn't know how many things would make him heartbroken to make him never mention it.

called Han Ping, who was training new security guards in the backyard, to the study and asked directly: "Han Ping, have you ever had any dealings with the Communist Party before?" His eyes stared at him and answered, Han Ping suddenly opened his mouth and was stunned, and he reflected for a long time and said: "Young master, I don't know why you asked me this, when I was in Nanchang, I followed the division commander and cooperated with them against Chiang Kai-shek, I personally have no chance to associate with them, young master, I am not a communist." ”

Nodding his head and saying, "What do you think of those people?" ”

Han Ping thought for a while and said, "Those people are amazing! Seeing that I hesitated, he said again: "Young master, if you have any tasks, I will definitely do it for you!" ”

"It's dangerous, you can say no, I don't have anything to blame. You've got to think about it! ”

"Young master, I'm not afraid of fighting, not to mention that I have learned so many skills from you."

"Well, you return to China with the goods, and when you arrive in Yongshou, you will start to do what I told you, and I will write to the chief of staff and cousin to cooperate with you! Confidentiality is kept from others. Take a look at the map. He pointed to a map that he had brought from Japan.

"There are 10 tons of candy and 10 tons of chocolate in the cargo this time, at least half of them will be transported to this place, called Maoergai, there is no on the map, the location is roughly drawn by me, it is under the jurisdiction of Songpan County, about 100 miles west of Songpan County, it is a relatively large residential area, and the things are hidden near a lama temple in Shangbazhai Township, Maoergai."

"You can choose to hire or form a caravan and hire guides from Yongshou to Hanzhong, and from Hanzhong to Guangyuan. In the name of the caravan going to the Tibetan area to do business, through the ancient city of Zhaowu, Pingwu, Songpan, to Maoergai, of course, this is the expected route, you can adjust it yourself according to the actual situation. You bring another 20,000 oceans in cash, 10,000 meters of one-inch braided belt, ten horses of red cloth and 200 pounds of medicine; They went into Tibetan areas to buy horses, grain, furs, yaks, and so on, and brought them with them. You choose a 15-strong army, and I'll ask the chief of staff to give you another 50. When you enter the Tibetan area, you will be treated as bandits if you see those who bully the common people! ”

"When you get to the place, you and the elite soldiers stay and arrange for the others to take another route back. You wait until the end of July next year, if there is no army to come, donate the things to the lama and the local people, and bring people back with the medicine. ”

After a pause, he saw Han Ping nodding his head to show that he remembered, and continued: "If you wait for the army, you ask to see someone in the name of donating materials, he is a high-ranking figure in the Communist Party, just call him sir!" Do one thing for me, take this golden pen. ”

I handed the golden pen to Han Ping and continued, "Remember the following words. Tell them that the general donated the things to one of his subordinates, named Liu Yunhui, who entrusted you to send them. The golden pen is a relic of her husband who died in Tianjin, and together with the golden pen is a collection of Zhang Hatshui's "Bow Collection" published by Yuanheng Books in Beiping in 1932, and there is a note in the golden pen that involves her husband's identity. If their generals know, just tell me what their generals said, and if not, bring me the originals. If you ask about Liu Yunhui's situation, she will say that she has opened a pharmaceutical company in the United States, and the drugs are her research results, and she has a contract with others, and she is expected to be unable to return to China within ten years; She sold her family property in Tianjin and Shanghai and bought it with all her previous savings, and you hired her at a great price. There is no need to mention my existence. ”

"I plan to return to China in May or June next year, and you are not allowed to tell anyone else about seeing their generals, and if you are willing to accept the mission, you will repeat it."

Han Ping did not hesitate to repeat it.

"5 more sniper rifles, 6x lenses, 2,000 rounds of sniper ammunition and 2 American radio stations. Tibet is also short of salt, so bring more; If possible, bring some of their general's favorites, oh, chili! Newspaper! Yes, don't forget to bring a case of cigarettes. If you fall into the mud, don't move, don't go down to save people, throw a rope and pull it out. ……。 ”

At the end of August, Han Ping set off to return to China, and he also let go of a big thing, no matter what the result was, he worked hard! Sulfonamides have been clinically effective in New York hospitals, and their reputation has been forged. The factory entrusted Woody's company to do full sales, and the drug labels, instructions, and packaging were also arranged in the warehouse that Woody bought; This makes it possible to keep a lot of profits in the trading company. Every week, Dawu personally took people to the factory to transport them to Woody. Although there is no breakthrough in the research results, it has not affected the profitability of the factory, and it is really impossible to import dyes from Germany to deal with it. I let go of a big thing again.

Aunt Liu's research has been in a slow state, experimenting with synthetic ideas one by one, and she has no choice; Encouraged Aunt Liu to carry out penicillin research, and told him that he could extract penicillin in large quantities from a melon from a kind of melon, and used corn flour to prepare the corresponding culture medium to cultivate the mold, and then extracted penicillin crystals by freeze-drying. What will happen, depending on Aunt Liu's efforts, in addition to spiritual encouragement, she can only resign herself to fate.

And I arranged a task for Aunt Liu, secretly developing napalm, I only remember what aluminum soap, it is definitely not soap, it is a viscous agent, it can make gasoline form gum, that is, like rubber. If successful, it is enough to export the viscous material to China, the formula is kept secret, and it is not produced in the United States. Of course, if Aunt Liu can't develop it, she can also use rubber instead to make part of it.

It's time to go all-in on the guns. Experimenting with firearms in a factory, he was warned by the surrounding factories, so he had to buy a small farm in the suburbs of New York as a test range.

James Cartelett tried out two kinds of bullets at the same time, and when the size of the cartridge case was basically determined, tens of thousands of rounds were fired just by testing the weight and shape of the warhead. After looking at the basic parameters of the 2-inch bullet, I decided to give it up for the time being, except for the fact that it could save a lot of material, it didn't seem to make much sense. After instructing James Catlett to apply for a patent, the information should be kept and retained. Seeing that the 1.5-inch bullet was almost the same as the bullet I was familiar with in my previous life, I was very emotional; I was instructed to go all out to finalize the 1.5-inch bullet and other research tasks; the warhead determined that the flat-bottomed design was an ordinary bullet, and the weight of the whole bullet was 20 percent lighter than that of the 2.5-inch bullet, and the length was 30 millimeters shorter.

Donner Shearer's research is even less successful, and it seems that there are still fewer hints for him, and the design is very different from what he expected. The main thing is that he was too influenced by the design philosophy of the Garand semi-automatic rifle.

The air guide hole is directly required to be opened behind the rifling of the barrel, and the bolt adopts a short-stroke gas conduction piston to obtain recoil energy, and there are 6 locking bamboo shoots on the rotary head; The nose and bolt frame are still connected by the cylindrical structure of the German bolt-action sniper rifle. The return spring and the piston rod are on the same axis, and the tactical guide rail structure is made into the buckle cover of the return mechanism; The magazine structure continues the structure of the German bolt-action sniper rifle, and the trigger is directly adopted.
