Chapter 29
Zhou Yanghao, a native of Jiangshan County, Zhejiang Province, was a fellow villager of Dai Li and Mao Renfeng. In later generations, Xu Yuanju was called the Three Musketeers of the Military Commission, nicknamed "Scholar Killer". This time he came to Jiyuan to investigate the matter about Lu Mingxuan, crossing the river.
After a difficult journey, he finally arrived at the gate of Jiyuan. At this time, Zhou Yanghao was looking at the several notices posted at the gate of the city with great interest.
"Jiyuan Cement Factory recruits workers, with a probation period of two months. During the probation period, 3 oceans per month will be 6 oceans per month after becoming a formal worker. There are three insurances and one fund. Those who are interested please go to Chengmen Hongyun Building to register as soon as possible."
"Jiyuan Steel Plant recruits workers, and the training period is 3 o'clock per month..."
"Jiyuan Metal Smelter recruits workers..."
He was undoubtedly very surprised to see so many recruitment notices. He did not expect that there were so many factories in a small Jiyuan City, but what surprised him even more was still behind him.
"The China Arms Import and Export Department recruits formal employees, with a monthly salary of 3 yuan during the training period. After becoming a formal employee, a monthly salary of 15 yuan will be 15 yuan, and enjoys three insurances and one fund. The company also sells various rifles, machine guns, artillery, aircraft, and tanks. Warlords are welcome to come and buy them. Interested people are welcome to go to No. 6 Tiantan Road to discuss in detail."
It turned out that Lu Mingxuan was nervous for a while, but he felt relieved after discovering that the Kuomintang government had not sent anyone to attack him, so he began his next plan, which was to sell arms.
After all, now he has a great family and has so many people who follow him to have dinner. It is not a long-term plan to always rely on robbery, so he started his old business, which can be regarded as doing his part to fight against Japan.
After reading this notice, even though Zhou Yanghao was very knowledgeable, he was shocked. No one cared about how the arms sold were posted to the city gate.
Moreover, the types of arms are really quite complete. Even heavy weapons such as aircraft, tanks and cannons are sold. I'm afraid even the National Government cannot do this.
But is the statement true? He is deeply suspicious of this.
So he stopped a passing old man and asked, "Old man, is what the notice said on this notice true? Is it really someone selling airplanes and cannons here?"
The old man glanced at Zhou Yanghao, and then smiled and said, "You are from other places."
After hearing his words, Zhou Yanghao couldn't help but sweat wildly, but he still said humbly: "Uncle, you can see it."
The old man said with a good temper: "What's so strange about this? In recent days, people have stopped them and asked these questions. I have been asked eight times alone."
"Then I would like to ask the old man to give me more advice. What's going on? Who is selling these arms?"
The old man smiled and said, "What is said above is of course true. The one who sells arms is Lu Dajia from Wolongzhai. You can ask someone for this and they know it."
"No, bandits also sell arms." Zhou Yanghao was really shocked, and he was not selling foreign guns and local cannons, but aircraft and tanks.
"What's so strange about it? You outsiders are always shocked when they hear it. It seems like such a great thing. Lu Dada's planes and tanks are something that everyone here knows, why can't they sell it?" The old man said with a faint smile.
"What's going on with those policemen? The bandit leader posted the notice to the city gate. Do they just ignore it?" Zhou Yanghao pointed to the police officers on duty at the city gate and asked. It was obvious that he was very strange about the police's behavior of turning a blind eye to these notices.
"What's so strange about this? They dare not care about it." The old man said with a sarcastic sarcastic sarcastic : "Who dares to stop what the boss Lu Da is going to do? Who doesn't know that boss Lu Da Da is the real boss of Jiyuan."
After hearing his words, Zhou Yanghao couldn't help but feel awkward. Why did the boss of the county town under the Republic of China become a bandit?
But the old man did not notice his expression. He just continued: "They are not ignoring it. They are helping the Lu Dazhuo family stand guard so that they will not be destroyed. If the notices are destroyed and the boss is blamed, they will not be able to bear it."
After hearing the old man's words, Zhou Yanghao was completely shocked. The police actually stood guard for the bandits? Is there such a thing in the world?
Did they not have the dignity of being a policeman? They actually worked hard for the bandits?
Is this still the Republic of China he knew?
Looking at the police officers who were five or six in front of the common people, Zhou Yanghao looked at them with contempt. He vowed that if these policemen fell into his hands in the future, he would let these police officers know how powerful he was.
After he said good-hearted old man, he entered Jiyuan City with a complicated mood.
After entering Jiyuan City, he first chose an inn to settle down, and then went out to inquire about the news. He first entered a teahouse, then asked for a cup of tea, and began to listen to the diners' conversations while thinking about his next move.
After several major wars with the Japanese, the Kuomintang army suffered a lot from the advanced weapons of the Japanese. Every time a Japanese tank was wiped out, I didn’t know how many lives the soldiers of the Kuomintang army would be lost.
Moreover, the current national army is extremely short of aircraft. Originally, there were more than 500 aircraft on the books of the national army, but in fact, only 91 fighter jets were able to take off after the war between China and Japan. The reason is that China imported a large number of Italian counterfeit and shoddy products. Fighters were waste that could easily catch fire, and bombers could only be used as transportation and exports.
If he could buy back a large number of planes for the Kuomintang army, it would undoubtedly be a great achievement. When he thought of this, his heart felt hot. So he made up his mind to go to No. 6, Tiantan Road, no matter what.
...
...
The bleak autumn wind rolled up a pile of fallen leaves. Zhou Yanghao asked for a long time and finally arrived at No. 6 Tiantan Road. He found that it was a big yard, and there were two policemen holding batons standing at the door of the yard. As soon as he saw the two policemen, he understood what they were doing. He couldn't help but spat fiercely. They were such a group of damn watchdogs.
However, he quickly controlled his expression and walked towards the courtyard.
The two policemen saw someone coming, and quickly stopped him and asked, "Stop, who are you and what are you doing here?"
"Two officials, I have escaped from Shanghai. I heard that there are transactions here, so I came here to see if I can make two small money to spend." Zhou Yanghao said with a smile as he tried hard.
The two policemen looked at each other, and then said to Zhou Yanghao with a fierce look on their faces: "Get in, but we can warn you, you'd better be honest. You must know that this is the territory of Lu Da's boss. If you dare to make trouble here, even if the boss lets you go, we won't let you go."
After hearing their words, Zhou Yanghao almost fainted. Who are you? You are policemen!
How can you be like this? There are a large group of bandits in it. Instead of arresting them, I want me to obey the bandits. Is there any reason for this?
I have heard of people who rely on dogs, and I have never heard of police who rely on gangsters. Today I have opened my eyes.
However, Zhou Yanghao is also a very cunning person. He said with a smile: "Please rest assured, I will definitely abide by the rules here and will never cause trouble for you."
The two policemen nodded and then let him in.
After despising the two policemen in his heart, Zhou Yanghao strode into the yard.
