Code Name: Flame

Chapter 89 Liu Xiang
It took two days to conduct a field inspection of the company's site selection, and Chen Jia was very satisfied.

He also took a fancy to a town called Chenjiaguan five or six miles away from the valley.The town is not big, with a population of only a thousand people, and the rest is farmland and mountains.

Back at the hotel, Chen Jia started to do homework on the map. Li Boyan was very familiar with the geography of this area, so he helped him. This is the difference between Song Keqin and Li Boyan.

Li Boyan was born in the third phase of the Whampoa Military Academy, so Chen Jia would call him Senior Brother according to reason.Because of his military background, he is very sensitive to terrain.After determining the site of the factory, he took his men and ran all over the surrounding places, so where can build a house, where is the best location for the outpost, where is the water source, where the soil quality can dig holes, he can almost tell the truth Come.

As for why Li Boyan left the army to join the red team, Chen Jia was a little curious, but refrained from asking.In the future, I will slowly inquire from Xie Keqiang. He must know everyone's story, otherwise he will not be at ease in using it.

For the design of the factory area, Chen Jia made a rough sketch. He already knew the maximum size of the equipment, and he had read the detailed information of all the thousands of pieces of equipment, so the design of the factory building was not a difficult problem.

What hurts my head is that the cement factories and brick factories near Chongqing are very small in scale, with low output and poor quality.Chen Jia had expected this a long time ago, and there was an architect who came randomly, and the cement technology he brought from Shanghai was no problem at all.

Chen Jia sent him to find those cement cave dwellings to discuss cooperation and help them upgrade for free, with Nelson temporarily paying the funds.The clay kiln owners in Chongqing are also very confused. They can't imagine that there are such people in the world.After they heard the amount of cement used, they realized that they were the most ridiculous person. What was the amount?The combined production of a few of them in a year is estimated to be only enough for people to use for a few days.

I also went to see it in elementary school and was very dissatisfied.Some of the school's roofs are leaking, and the walls are also earthen walls.The house is small, dark and damp. People living in this kind of place for a long time will be called hell if they don't get sick.I asked the architect, if it is simply repaired, it will only take a few days, and it will be able to live after those people arrive.Repairs can only improve, not solve the fundamental problem.

"No, it's okay for adults to bear it. What should children do in this environment? If they get sick, it will be a big trouble. They come all the way to live a good life. If the army's morale is not stable, what grandiose will it be?" The blueprint is all bullshit."

At this moment, Chen Jia is a little anxious. His impression of the city of Chongqing is still from his previous life. There are high-rise buildings and places where Internet celebrities check in everywhere.What does the mountain city look like now?Dilapidated walls and tiles, few serious buildings could be found.

When a person is in a hurry, the things to do are crazy.

Chen Jia ran directly to the official residence of Chongqing King Liu Xiang and asked to meet Liu Xiang.

Chongqing Wang Liuxiang was surprised when he heard that it was Americans who wanted to invest and build a factory in Chongqing.Where is Chongqing?Compared with a big city like Shanghai and Beiping, it is not an exaggeration to call it poor and bad. How could Americans invest?

"Chairman Liu, this is the situation. Can you give me some convenience and help settle these people down?"

At this moment, Liu Xiang's heart is so happy that it flies, 500 million US dollars, a total of 6000 million yuan, and the annual tax revenue of the whole country is only [-] billion.His current state of mind can no longer be described in terms of ecstasy, and he even began to wonder if the unknown and unremarkable young man in front of him might be a liar?

Is it a liar?Anyway, Liu Xiang looks more and more like him, and his heart gets colder. If this person has 6000 million, shouldn't I have 600 billion?
Chen Jia watched as the king's face slowly began to freeze, and the irony in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

What do you mean?Nest Harpenning?Does the old man have bad eyesight?why?
"Li Guohua, right? Are you talking about an American motorcycle or something that needs to invest 500 million and pay back the US dollars? I'm so stupid, do you think we Chongqing people are all haha?"

Chen Jiaju was stunned, he understood that the words of his ancestors were swearing, so the king of Chongqing didn't follow the routine?Lao Tzu invests here, shouldn't you entrust me like an ancestor?Why are you still scolding people?

"Chairman Liu, my people will arrive in a few days, and they will need to arrange accommodation. I am already looking for workers to build a house, and it will take at least three or four months to complete, so I need to have accommodation during this period place. It’s okay for adults, but there are also children.”

Seeing that what he said was true, Liu Xiang muttered in his heart again, "Where did you build the house?"

"Oh, it's in the vicinity of Xiangguo Temple in Chenjiaguan. It's the land my father-in-law bought two months ago."

When Liu Xiang heard it, he seemed to be a little impressed. He frowned and was thinking about it, when the adjutant next to him came over and whispered, "Isn't it Mr. Gu's uncle who bought it?"

Only now did Liu Xiang remember that there was indeed such a thing, and the land was bought by himself for a thousand oceans.

"Who are you, Mr. Gu?"

"Oh, he's my wife's cousin."

"Hahahaha, why didn't Mr. Li say it earlier, it turned out to be his own. Oh, Mr. Li, I gave that piece of land to Mr. Gu. He didn't tell me why he bought it, so it was for investment. Build a factory. It’s very remote there, shall I change a piece of land for you? As long as you ask, I will transfer it to you without paying a penny.”

Chen Jia was a little uncomfortable with his hot and cold way of speaking, like a roller coaster.

"Chairman, the factory we want to build is for the production of weapons, so we need to choose a safe place."

"Weapon?" Liu Xiang stood up awkwardly, "What weapon?"

Perhaps realizing that his restlessness was a bit exaggerated, he immediately sat down in embarrassment and smiled, "I'm a soldier, and I get a little excited when I hear the word weapon."

Chen Jia took out a box, opened it, and said, "This is my meeting gift for the general. The American Colt M1911A1 is a special model, and there are only ten of them in the world."

Liu Xiang took a look and said happily, "What a good gun."

"In order to express my respect to the chairman, there are fifty more that will arrive in Chongqing in a few days. I gave them to the general. I just saw that your guards are all long guns, which is not suitable for security work. Guards, you should have one A submachine gun paired with a Colt pistol can give full play to its firepower advantage.”

Liu Xiang's slightly fat face trembled, "You just said that your factory produces weapons? What kind of weapons?"

"In addition to this Colt pistol, there are also improved versions of the Springfield M1903A1, 7.92-caliber rifles, ZB26 light machine guns, and mortars. In fact, we can also produce heavy machine guns, but it depends on the needs of the troops."

"Springfield 1903 rifle?" Liu Xiang is an old soldier. It can be said that he has used more guns than Chen Jia has ever heard of.

Springfield rifles have long been available in China, and the largest number is Springfield 1917.Most of the domestic imported guns are used second-hand guns, the rifling is almost worn out, and the price has to reach 20-30 oceans.

Even this kind of rotten gun is regarded as a treasure by the current Sichuan army, and it is all because of no money.I had no choice, so I went to buy cheaper domestic Hanyang made.If you can't afford new Hanyang-made ones, you can buy second-hand ones for seven or eight yuan a piece.This kind of quality is inferior to second-hand Hanyang. It is useless in war. You aim at the enemy and shoot, and then the bullets fly out slowly.That is to fly out. As for where to fly, the ballistic calculation is too complicated, no one knows, and neither does God.

The weapons of the Red Army are also bad, but they always win battles, especially after annihilating the Central Army, there will be good things in the money, even a 100-watt radio station can be seized, can you believe it?

The Sichuan army will only fight internally, the equipment is getting worse and worse, and the combat effectiveness is getting worse and worse.As Liu Xiang, who used to be the main speaker in Sichuan, don't understand this matter too much.Now when I hear about weapons, my heart is already itchy.I turned around in my head a few times, the itch was quite itchy, and I could only itch.why?No Money.

As I write this, I think of the Sichuan Army coming out of Sichuan to fight against the Japanese, and it was called the Beggar Army.But it was this group of beggars who fought a battle that no number of elites could match. The 380 million soldiers who came out of Sichuan, at the cost of 65 deaths, won the praise of no army without a river.

How did Chen Jia know the pain in the heart of this majestic chairman of Sichuan Province? Looking at the rich expression on the old man's face, his heart beats like a drum. What is going on in this warlord's mind?
"Mr. Li, how much do you pay for this gun?" What should be asked is still to be asked, what if it is very cheap?Liu Xiang's current state of mind is that of a gambler, and he just hopes that a pie will suddenly fall from the sky, preferably a big pie that can knock him out.

"It's hard to say now. It should be more expensive than Hanyang. After all, our equipment and materials are strictly in accordance with American standards."

If you are an ancestor, you might as well not ask.Liu Xiang's mood at the moment is gloomy and weak, and he doesn't know what words to use to describe it.despair?Well, pretty close.
