Chapter 145 Donation
Chapter 145 Donation
Holding the letter in his hand, Hou Xiaoge couldn't help but think of Mr. Zhou on TV in his previous life, with a thin face, gray hair, and sitting at his desk writing furiously in the dark night.
"Wenjun, I brought an extra thousand stones of eggs yesterday! Ask the Internal Affairs Hall to make three hundred stones of transmuted eggs, and send them to Stationmaster Wang after they are done. This will be my gift to Mr. Zhou." After a long time, Hou Xiaoge put away the letter and gave the order.
A pound of eggs costs 2.5 cents on the market, and the price is even higher if they are made into modified eggs. Three hundred stones are worth at least nine thousand dollars, which is a good gift for meeting someone.
"Ok!"
……
On the other side, Wang Yuming was also delighted and shocked after hearing Information Hall Master Cui Wenying talk about the donation of Yanhuang League.
Wang Yuming knew that although he had just received goodwill from the Yanhuang Alliance, in his opinion, it was already very good that the Yanhuang Alliance could withstand the pressure from the National Government and sell them some supplies at a fair price.
I didn’t expect the surprise to come so soon. The Yanhuang Alliance was so generous and gave it away for free.
"Master Cui, Master Han, are you telling the truth?
Did your leader really say that he would give us 5,000 shi of sweet potatoes, 100 shi of meat, and 2 shi of red powder for free, without any other conditions attached? "These materials add up to nearly 20,000 yuan, which is really a big deal.
"There is one additional condition, which is that your army needs to use half of the 5,000 dan of sweet potatoes to provide relief to the victims, and the rest of the supplies are his support for your army's anti-Japanese war.
Oh, there is another benefit that I forgot to tell Stationmaster Wang. Your army can purchase 60 shi of red wound medicine from our Jinyintang, and the price is only half of the market price. "Han Fuheng nodded and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, that's really great, really great.
I'm not afraid of you two laughing at me, our army was really poor! During the war, we often didn't even have food to eat, and we often fought with the Japanese with bayonets on an empty stomach.
You haven't seen it. A large number of excellent soldiers can only simply clean their wounds after being injured because there is no medicine.
Because they could not get medical treatment, many comrades could only watch helplessly as they died in their comrades’ arms.
Now with these few stones of red medicine, we can save the lives of thousands of soldiers in the future. Thank you, thank you so much.
I, Wang Yuming, bow to everyone in the Yanhuang League. Please help me thank the leader Zhou when you go back. From now on, your league will be the closest friend of our Red Army. "Wang Yuming stood up excitedly with red eyes and bowed to the two people sincerely.
"Hey hey!"
"Stationmaster Wang, what are you doing? You are all heroes who serve the country and the people. We are just ordinary people surviving in the rear. How can we ask you to bow to us?" The two men quickly stopped Stationmaster Wang and helped him up.
Next, everyone discussed the transportation of goods. After all, it is not easy to transport hundreds of tons of goods over hundreds of miles.
It was finally decided that the Jinyintang caravan would transport the goods to the junction of Sanyuan and Xunyi, and then the red military personnel stationed in Xunyi would transport the goods back little by little.
After the discussion, just as Wang Yuming was about to leave, Wen Jun came out and told Zhou Debiao that he would give Director Zhou three hundred stones of eggs.
After hearing this, Wang Yuming's eyes widened and he thought that the leader of the Yanhuang Alliance was really a living god of wealth and he must curry favor with him in the future.
After Wang Yuming left, Hou Xiaoge walked out from the back hall.
"Hall masters, after our conversation just now, what do you think of the Red Army?" Hou Xiaoge asked with a smile.
“Alliance leader, we have come into contact with many people during this period. The national government and other local armies are very impressive and are no different from the government in the past.
The red army gives people the feeling of being humble and low-key. It is very comfortable to talk to them without any sense of oppression. " Cui Wenying said after thinking for a while.
After Cui Wenying finished speaking, Li Wenru and Wenjun beside him nodded in agreement.
Hou Xiaoge sensed the heartbeats of several people with his mental power, nodded and said nothing.
It's enough to have a good impression, but I'm afraid of hostility, otherwise the hall leader will have to be changed later.
Because he was familiar with history, Hou Xiaoge really didn't want to have a conflict with the red faction. After all, he would need their support in many things in the future.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or what, but just two minutes after the Red Army left, people from the National Government showed up.
"What do you, the Yanhuang League, want to do? You don't want to stay in Qin Province anymore, right?" The official from the national government shouted as soon as he came in.
Hou Xiaoge had just not gone in, and seeing the Kuomintang officials' annoyance, he did not go in either, and started to confront them directly.
"What's the matter? Does the National Government have any objection to overseas Chinese supporting the War of Resistance?" Hou Xiaoge did not stand up, but asked directly while sitting on the chair.
"Forehead!"
The government official didn't expect the Yanhuang Alliance to be so tough and started to hack at his ribs as soon as they opened their mouths.
"This must be Alliance Leader Zhou, right? I have heard of you for a long time. I am here to express my gratitude on behalf of the government.
However, some things have to be said clearly. Compared to Mr. Zhou, you have also heard that Mr. Chang doesn't like red things! In the future, we should try to have less contact with them in China, otherwise it will be difficult for us to do it. "The middle-aged official of the National Government changed his face faster than Sichuan.
"Hmph! We overseas Chinese don't care about what you guys are doing in your country. The only thing I came back for this time is to support the war of resistance. I will support whoever fights the Japanese." Hou Xiaoge is familiar with the behavior of these officials. The more he cannot see through them, the more cautious he becomes.
If he had been stage-frightened just now, this person would have only become more aggressive and might have swallowed up the Yanhuang Alliance.
"Ha ha!"
"Mr. Zhou is truly a role model of a patriotic Chinese! Liu admires him.
Let me introduce myself formally. I am Liu Naichao, director of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics’ Chang’an Office. I welcome patriotic Chinese like Mr. Zhou to return to China to support the war of resistance. "After Liu Naichao finished speaking, he smiled and extended his hand to Hou Xiaoge.
"Yes, I'm Zhou Debiao, a Chinese from Houston, Texas!" Hou Xiaoge gave himself the identity he needed to go out. He made up a place in the United States at random, then stood up casually and shook hands with Liu Naichao.
When Liu Naichao heard the name Houston, Texas, his eyes lit up. This Zhou Debiao should be real. If he was fake, he would usually say cities like New York.
"I wonder what kind of business Mr. Zhou's family is doing in America, so that we can cooperate in the future." Liu Naichao continued to probe.
"It's not a big business. I have more than 10,000 acres of farms, 20,000 acres of pastures, several dairy processing plants, a stainless steel manufacturing plant, and some other miscellaneous small factories." Zhou Debiao said casually.
Although Liu Naichao never studied abroad, he at least attended middle school and knew that one acre is equivalent to more than six mu in China.
His family was just a small landlord in Zhejiang, with a property of more than 200 acres. He was not at the same level as this man.
"Wow, I've met a super landlord today!" Liu Naichao exclaimed in his heart.
"Mr. Zhou, I heard that you have a lot of red medicine in your hands. The soldiers at the front are in urgent need of medicine. I wonder if you can support the government?" Liu Naichao asked with a smug look on his face.
"Director Liu should have heard of the Pacific War! The Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor in the United States and destroyed many US Navy warships.
In the recent naval battle between the two countries, China has the upper hand and forcibly closed Myanmar's ports.
Nowadays, it is very difficult to transport foreign aid goods into China. Director Liu knows all this, right?" Hou Xiaoge said.
"That's true, but the national government has already sent the Zhenxi Army to open up the Yunmian Passage. With the help of the British Empire, it should be opened soon." Liu Naichao nodded.
Judging from what Zhou Debiao knew, Liu Naichao was already certain that this was a real Chinese person, otherwise he would not have known him so clearly.
"Director Liu is not telling the truth. The Zhenxi Army has already failed! My cargo ship and a batch of supplies were robbed by the Japanese. The Japanese are not easy to deal with.
I don't have much supplies now, so please support the government with 20 dan of red medicine! I'll sell the other 200 dan to you at half price, so I can make up for the loss of the cargo ship." Hou Xiaoge said with a frown.
