Fengxian Jiangshan

While talking, a young man in his 30s and 30s walked over. At this age, he might still be a small employee in later generations. After all, there is still a shortage of talents, and the opportunities appear to be more.

Kuang Rongguang glanced at the young man, and then said with a smile, "You are Tang Shaoyi's son-in-law, Gu Weijun, Minister to the United States, right?"

When the young man heard his identity was called out by the other party, he was also slightly taken aback: "Old man, who are you, how do you know me?

"My name is Kuang Rongguang, and Tang Shaoyi is still a classmate."

When Gu Weijun heard this, he was also taken aback. He had heard of Kuang Rongguang's name a long time ago. Tang Shaoyi mentioned it many times, saying that Kuang Rongguang was an authority in the mining industry among the children studying in the United States, and he was a great talent. . [

"Mr. Kuang, this junior has heard of your name a long time ago, and has always wanted to visit you. It's just that I don't know where you live during this time, so I didn't visit."

"I have been in Fengtian for the past two years. I investigated the geology of the three eastern provinces, and then opened a college. When I get older, I have to train some successors. The future belongs to you young people!" Kuang Rongguang said with a smile: "At such a young age, he can become a minister to the United States, and represent the "government" and participate in the Paris Peace Conference. He is a talented young diplomat. My old classmate is also discerning!"

"Mr. Kuang praised me a lot. I heard you talking, and it seems that you have a very bad opinion of this peace conference. Do you have any advice?"

"It's not a good idea." Xia Han said from the side: "I just think that the strong will eat the strong. Tigers and cattle and sheep will be reasonable. If you want to be reasonable, you must first become a tiger, otherwise you will only be slaughtered."

After hearing Xia Han's words, Gu Weijun was also a little dazed.What Xia Han said seems reasonable, but as a diplomat, isn't his mission to fight for the interests of the country at the negotiating table? If there is no reason to speak, why do they need diplomats?

However, although Gu Weijun is not very old, his self-cultivation is still very good. He did not continue to ask, but said with a smile: "Mr. Kuang, are you going to Europe too? I wonder if there is something important?"

"It's nothing important to talk about. It's just to buy some things. There are many factories in the three provinces in the Northeast, and there is a lack of machinery and equipment everywhere. Buy whatever you can."

"This is a good thing. When I was in the United States. What I envied the most were those huge industrial zones. Their industrial production capacity is simply too appalling. Tangtang China can't even compare to a fraction. It's a pity."

Chen Qiming smiled and said: "When I was studying abroad a few years ago, I also saw factories in Europe and the United States. It was really shocking, but I believe that one day China will also grab the crown of the world's factory. We have [-] million yuan. Compatriots, there is no reason to be inferior to the great powers!"

"Okay. I'd like to see that day too."

We are all on the same boat, and during the journey, we often get together to chat, as representatives of the Chinese "government".Gu Weijun and the others lived in the first-class cabin, which was quite luxurious.And Feng Jun's delegation was crammed into the third-class cabin, and the conditions in all aspects were a bit shabby.

When Lu Zhengxiang and Gu Weijun were chatting, they said: "Shao Chuan, what do you always go to chat with those bumpkins outside the pass? If you are energetic, let's discuss the negotiation strategy. How can we persuade the big powers and let them Agree to our request."

"Minister Lu is right." Shi Zhaoji also said contemptuously: "Although there are quite a few of them, they are all shabby from top to bottom. There is a dance on the boat, but they have never been to it. I wonder if this group of people can afford a decent suit, they are so mixed up, why bother to go to Europe's fancy world to be ashamed."

Gu Weijun frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased with Shi Zhaoji's judging people by their appearance, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Willing to waste it!"

When Lu Zhengxiang heard this, he also became interested, and asked with a smile: "Shaochuan, are they really rich?"

"Well, Minister Lu, although I didn't ask the specific figures, but when I chatted with them, I revealed that they will buy chemical plants, metallurgical plants, electronics plants, tractor production lines, power generation equipment, fertilizer plants, etc. Come on, if you don't have 3000 to [-] million, you will definitely not be able to take it down!"

Hearing Gu Weijun's words, Lu Zhengxiang's eyes were also widened. Two to thirty million is not a small amount, almost equivalent to one-third of Beiyang's fiscal revenue. It is definitely an astronomical figure. I really didn't realize that this group of people is actually Full of local tyrants!

"Brother Shaochuan, didn't you say an extra ten thousand characters? Where did they get so much money?" Shi Zhaoji asked in disbelief.

"I don't know either, but I know that Fengjun has lofty aspirations and is motivated from top to bottom. Among the dozens of people, there are mechanical experts, chemists, agronomists, physicists, Geologists, senior engineers, entrepreneurs, all kinds of talents are available, even if Premier Duan organizes, I am afraid that they will not be able to come up with such a luxurious lineup.” [

Now Lu Zhengxiang and Shi Zhaoji had nothing to say. This delegation was indeed not simple. It not only had strong financial resources, but also had many talents.

The passenger ship sailed across the ocean and finally arrived in France. Gu Weijun and the others went directly to Paris to attend the peace conference. Xia Han, Kuang Rongguang and others were also going to disembark here. Although they were going to buy Germany, they didn't want to rush directly to Germany. The situation must be clarified first.

Moreover, Xia Han and the others also got the news that right after Germany was defeated, the French, who had been seriously injured in the war, rushed to Germany like crazy, dismantled a lot of industrial equipment, and then moved back to France. Nominally used to offset Germany's war reparations.

However, after these machines are obtained in France, they can only be piled up like scrap iron. Don’t look at the French as rags, but as long as they get the Far East, let alone China, even the Japanese will covet it. Advanced industrialized countries have strong technological advantages, and even the United States has to stand aside.

"Mr. Kuang, haste makes waste. These machines are good. But they are not something we can buy with money. I suggest that we split up and take a look at France and Germany, which have been devastated by the war. , Find what we need most, I am in charge of iron and steel metallurgy and other industries, brother Qi Ming is in charge of chemical electronics, and you are in charge of mining heavy machinery."

"Yes." Kuang Rongguang nodded and said, "When everyone separates, you must be careful and don't patronize your work. There is still a devil in Europe. Don't get infected with anyone!"

What Kuang Rongguang was talking about was the Spanish flu. At the end of the First World War, a flu that swept the whole world broke out, and the number of people who died from the flu even surpassed that of World War I. Before the advent of antibiotics.There is no good way for human beings to deal with the flu. If you get infected, you can only pray for God's blessing.

Zhang Tinglan's natural way of this situation.So before Kuang Rongguang and the others set off.He specifically ordered this matter and brought them a lot of medicine.Although Zhang Tinglan knew that sulfonamide and antibiotics could treat Spanish flu, but Fengtian did not have the ability to produce antibiotics on a large scale, so it was no longer considered. As for sulfonamide, it was the task of this procurement group. Zhang Tinglan had already asked them to buy Bailangduo Interested patents.

Zhang Tinglan also wanted to use sulfa to make more money.But Zhang Tinglan denied it again. At this time when the whole world is in shock, if little Fengtian takes out the special medicine, he will be on the forefront of the storm all at once.It will inevitably be criticized by all parties. Don't think that the big powers are a good thing. They can join forces to put pressure on the Fengjun, and they don't even rule out the possibility of using force. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops in the Far East.

It is better not to do this kind of risky thing, but Zhang Tinglan is not going to let go of the huge financial source of sulfonamide, first get the patent, and then try to put it on the market. The market for this kind of antibacterial drug is not necessary Worried, long-term flow is the best way to make money.

Without these two special "medicines", what was distributed to Kuang Rongguang and the others was the famous Banlangen.Zhang Tinglan's family has a master of traditional Chinese medicine, and Zhou Xinyao also knows about the flu, so he specially used Radix isatidis as the main medicine, mixed with more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials, and made a heat-clearing and detoxifying pill , after preliminary tests, it can resist influenza very well.

Kwong Rongguang told everyone to take it regularly to enhance the body's resistance and not to catch the flu.After they assigned everything, they set off separately. The six or 70 people were divided into a dozen groups, and each set off for the area they were interested in.

Xia Han took some people to detour to France and went to the Ruhr area of ​​Germany, which is the core of the German steel industry and the most developed area of ​​heavy industry in Europe. The Ruhr area is next to Alsace and Lorraine. For these two Province, France and Germany fought several wars. With the victory of World War I, these two provinces finally returned to the control of the French.

Xia Han and the others passed through the most prosperous areas in Europe along the way, but it was completely different from what they had imagined. At this time, there were ruins everywhere, and there were bleak scenes everywhere. War and influenza have already seriously damaged Europe's vitality. up.

"Manager, did you notice that we walked together, but we didn't see a few men in their prime, and there were either women or old people and children on the side of the road. It's really a bit evil!"

"What's wrong with them? Haven't they all been beaten to death? I heard that millions of French people have died, and a whole generation of young people have been killed. What else can you see on the streets?"

Because a technician said to Xia Han with a smile: "Boss, these foreign girls are all tall and big, why do I feel that they are winking at us, do they miss men?"

"Don't think it's useless. The task is well done. I'll give you a vacation and let you relax. But the premise is that the business must be done well. Otherwise, I can strangle you to death without the commander-in-chief taking care of you."

"Boss, don't be angry, we mean that there are wives and children at home, and I heard that these bastards are all promiscuous, it's really boring!"

They crossed the French-German border along the way and entered the territory of Germany. What appeared before them was not desolation and depression, but terrible chaos.The new German "government" has just been established, and the whole society is in unprecedented chaos. There are three schools of thought on the streets, and all kinds of people are constantly coming and going. Everyone looks hurried, and their faces are covered with a layer of cloudy.

Walking on the street, suddenly a group of French soldiers walked over quickly from one side. The victors of these wars looked very arrogant. It was late, and one of the French soldiers opened the child violently, grabbed the woman, and laughed loudly, and the other companions also showed smug smiles. Everyone knew what it meant.

The Germans on the side were all very angry, especially a retired soldier in his thirties with a mustache. He clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were about to burst into flames. [

"Dear French soldiers, we are reporters from Japan. Wouldn't it be convenient to interview you warriors?"

For the convenience of activities, Xia Han temporarily pretended to be a Japanese reporter. After he asked questions in half-baked French, the French soldiers were a little dazed and couldn't help letting go of the woman. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
