Chapter 1607 The way to find money
Li Gengu was naturally very happy about Zhong Yi and the other two.
"Principal Zhong." Li Gengu smiled, "You don't come to find me, I'm going to come to find you."
"Oh, is that?" Zhong Yi said in surprise, "I don't know what Commander Li is looking for me for?"
Li Gengu sighed and said, "It's not about air defense."
After pausing, Li Gengu said again: "In recent months, the Japanese have been crazy. They have sent bombers to bomb almost every day. I, the air defense commander, are really annoyed."
Zhong Yi nodded subconsciously after hearing this.
In recent months, the frequency of the Japanese Air Force bombing Chongqing and Kunming has indeed increased.
The reason for this is not complicated. The Japanese Air Force does this mostly to train pilots.
Faced with a big country like the United States, it is impossible to withstand without a strong enough air force. However, if you want to build a strong air force, you must have enough pilots alone.
That's why the Japanese Air Force crazily dispatched bombers to bomb Chongqing and other cities.
After being obedient, Zhong Yi guessed Li Gengu’s intention.
Zhong Yi asked: "Do Commander Li want to buy anti-aircraft machine guns from Yinjiang?"
"Yes, yes, anti-aircraft machine guns." Li Gengu nodded repeatedly, "I heard that Principal Zhong ordered more than 500 Deshka anti-aircraft machine guns from the Soviet Union. At present, these more than 500 heavy machine guns are useless to deploy in Yinjiang. It is better to deploy them to Chongqing to protect the safety of the camp."
Zhong Yi said with some embarrassment: "Commander Li, you have to go to Chief Yu for this."
Li Gengu said with a light thrill, "Principal Zhong, I don't know if you have a pair of pants and affair with Chief Yu. As long as you say a word, Chief Yu can't sell us?"
Zhong Yi asked for help, so he said, "I wonder how much Commander Li plans to support him?"
"Of course, the more you have, the better." Li Gengu said, "As long as Chief Yu agrees, it is okay to give us all more than 500 heavy machine guns."
Zhong Yi laughed and said, "Commander Li, you are boring."
How could Yu Liangzhen sell all five hundred anti-aircraft machine guns to you?
All anti-aircraft machine guns are sold to you. Do you want Yinjiang’s air defense?
Li Gengu said: "It's not OK to be 500 strong, it's OK to be 200 strong."
Zhong Yi pondered: "Commander Li, I will tell you the truth. One hundred anti-aircraft machine guns, I can help you think of a solution. If there are more, I'm afraid it won't work."
"If you have to get it, you have to get it." Li Gengu was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "You can even spread a hundred times."
Li Gengu originally wanted only fifty anti-fire machine guns, but one hundred were already beyond expectations.
"Principal Zhong, you really helped me a lot." After a pause, Li Gengu continued, "But can the money for this gun purchase be slowed down for the time being?"
Zhong Yi laughed silently when he heard this. It turned out that he was not buying it, but wanted to get it for nothing.
Li Gengu said a little embarrassedly: "Principal Zhong, our Chongqing Garrison Command is really poor now. The amount of funds allocated by the Military and Political Department is a drop in the bucket, but the Zhejiang-Fujian War Zone is different. If you guard the Feng Shui treasure land of Yinjiang, can you still lack such a small amount of gun purchase? So you see..."
Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Commander Li, this may be difficult to deal with."
"That's it." Li Gengu said, "But we really have no money."
Zhong Yi said: "Commander Li, otherwise this will happen. I'll find a way to find money for you?"
"Yes." Li Gengu clapped his hands and said, "Why did I forget Principal Zhong, you are also a good person to make money in addition to wars. You made a lot of money in Wuhan. Yinjiang was originally just a small town with more than 300,000 people, but after you took over, it would develop into a big city with a population of millions in less than a year!"
After a pause, Li Gengu continued: "Principal Zhong, tell me quickly, how can I make money?"
Zhong Yi smiled slightly and said, "Commander Li, you are guarding Chongqing, guarding so many noble people, are you still afraid of losing money? Just think of a way, and you will immediately have a lot of money."
"What?" Li Gengu said in surprise, "What do you mean, scrape their oil and water?"
"Whose oil is scraped from the nobles who don't scrape the oil from the nobles?" Zhong Yi said, "The common people don't scrape it for you."
"Principal Zhong, don't criticize me." Li Gengu said with a wry smile, "Old Li, I can't compare with you. If you dare to provoke those nobles, I can't afford to provoke those nobles."
Zhong Yi said: "Then I will give you another trick."
Li Gengu's eyes lit up and he said, "What trick?"
Zhong Yi said: "You only afford to provoke people, such as opium opium and gambling halls!"
Li Gengu shook his hand and said, "I still can't afford to offend these opium and gambling halls have backstages."
Zhong Yi said: "You don't have to seize them, just let them contribute a little to Chongqing's air defense. Just say that it's air defense fundraising, they have to give some of them, right?"
"Yes." Li Gengu slapped his thigh hard and said, "I bought anti-aircraft machine guns from Yinjiang to protect Chongqing. Isn't it just to create a stable business environment for them?"
"That's right." Zhong Yi said, "Sir Li, you are trying to protect them."
Li Gengu was overjoyed and said, "Principal Zhong, thank you very much this time."
"Commander Li, don't be busy thanking you." Zhong Yi waved his hand and said, "I can help you find money ideas, but I have a condition here."
"Principal Zhong, just talk." Li Gengu slapped his chest and said, "As long as I, Li Gengu, can do it, I will definitely find a way to do it for you."
"This is just a trivial matter for Commander Li." Zhong Yi said, "This is the thing. At present, our special class is taking the fifth session of the Infantry Cannon Coordination Tactics class, but theory is always just theory and needs to be combined with practice. So I want to borrow the artillery regiment under your command for a few days. Oh, by the way, it's not enough to have cannons alone, and you have to add a base shell!"
"No problem." Li Gengu waved his hand and said, "Where is one base enough? I'll give you two bases."
"Then thank you Commander Li." Zhong Yi was also very happy to solve the problem.
Li Gengu said again: "Principal Zhong, it is rare that we are so speculative today. Why not stay and play a few laps of mahjong?"
Playing mahjong is just a routine operation for Chongqing's dignitaries and even senior generals. Because they don't play mahjong or dance, they really can't find anything else to do.
But how can Zhong Yi have time to play mahjong?
Zhong Yi has a lot of things to do.
The syllabus for the fifth period has not been completed yet, and the Special Forces Brigade's training plan for familiarizing itself with the jungle terrain in Southeast Asia in advance has not been done, and there is also the fundraising plan, and none of these tasks have been done.
