Chapter 270
The representatives of the Huaxia Business Group were warmly welcomed by the Soviet Russian government.
Kirov and Trotsky had conversations with the members of the business group respectively. Kirov could speak fluent Chinese, and Trotsky's English was quite good, which facilitated the communication between the two sides.
The translators have basically nothing to do but feast on the wine and bacon on the table.At least half of the food provided at the banquet came from China.Alcohol was "produced" in Russia, and the tsars and other nobles in exile during the revolution did not run away with barrels.
Vladimir was in good spirits. When Kirov, Trotsky and others were talking with members of the Chinese business group, Stalin walked up to him and said something with a serious expression.He listened carefully at first, then shook his head slightly.
"Comrade Stalin, you are wrong."
"But……"
"You can go and see the famine areas, or you can talk to farmers and workers in person, and you will know what they really need."
Stalin, who was left silent by Vladimir, went to Kirov and others who were laughing from time to time, and joined their conversation.
"The war shut down the industry, and the agriculture failed. The people's life is difficult, and the country is like a rusty gear that cannot continue to rotate." Vladimir's tone was melancholy, "We broke the old order, overthrew the Tsar, but the people's life is still hard."
Kirov and the others, who were talking and laughing just now, also became serious.
Vladimir suddenly changed the topic, "However, the staunch Bolsheviks are not afraid of any difficulties! The new economic policy and goodwill help will lead us out of the predicament!"
Soviet Russia's resources, manpower, and market are all conditions for attracting foreign investment.
"We welcome you with the greatest sincerity!"
Before the voice fell, the applause had already sounded.
It was Kirov who led the applause, followed by Trotsky, Bukharin... Soon, the applause became one piece.
After the banquet, the Soviet-Russian government and the Huaxia Business Group discussed economic cooperation.
Although the plan had already been drawn up, after arriving in Moscow, the members of the business group agreed that some parts of it could be modified after consultation.It will not affect the overall situation, but it can bring greater profits to everyone.
Although Vladimir's speech was moving, they are businessmen, and in business, what businessmen pursue is always profit.
During the period of the business group's stay in Moscow, Kazan had no personal contact with any of them.At the welcome banquet, he also behaved just like other Soviet Russian officers.Only when he returned to the room and lay on the bed, would he sigh wearily, just for a moment, and soon he would arm himself again.
As long as he was still in Soviet Russia, he was Kazan, a colonel of the Soviet army, and a Soviet combat hero.
On November [-], the Huaxia Business Group and the Soviet Russian government reached the first cooperation plan.Manager Feng and others became the first batch of foreigners to operate concession enterprises in Soviet Russia.
The factory buildings and workers are all ready-made, as long as a batch of machines are replaced and sufficient raw materials and dyes are prepared, the roar of the machines will sound again.
On November [-]th, the members of the business group set off to return home, and half a month later, most of them will come to Moscow again.
Li Jinyan soon got the news, and he didn't feel wrong with Manager Feng's increased investment. On the contrary, he always believed that the previous plan was a bit conservative, and at least it could bring twice the profit.
Thinking of the huge amount of money he was about to get, Li Jinyan couldn't help but feel happy.
The fun of making money is really wonderful.
Lou Er Shao, who was practicing calligraphy at the side, had already become calm, and his hands didn't even shake.The first time he heard Li Jinyan laugh like this, he was still surprised, but now, he basically doesn't even lift his head.
On November [-], Li Jinyan received another batch of arms orders, [-] Huaxia Type II submachine guns, and the buyer was an Irish businessman named Bolan.
Li Jinyan hadn't paid attention to British news for a long time. After receiving this order, he remembered in a trance that when Markov was active in Europe, he had contact with the Irish Independence Movement. sold to the British.
The ones he cheated were the Irish Brotherhood and the Irish National Army, which were wiped out by Britain in the middle of World War I.Who would buy weapons through this Irish businessman?
Li Jinyan would not naively think that the purchase of [-] assault rifles by an Irish businessman was purely for "commercial" purposes, and that the largest gang in the United States did not spend such a large amount of money. This is completely the standard of the armed forces.
Check and check, business is the same.
After learning that the boss behind the scenes is the Irish Republican Army, Li Jinyan set the price of each gun at 32 pounds, which is quite favorable compared to the price it sells to American gangsters.After all, making a revolution and pursuing independence is really not as lucrative as the gangsters who smuggled their fortunes.
After the business is negotiated, the money is handed over and the goods are delivered.
After the American gangsters, Li Jinyan opened up a new arms market in Great Britain,
Will the US government and the British government make trouble for him?
Li Jinyan said that all weapons were sold through formal channels.It was none of his business to whom the "legitimate" buyer sold the weapon to.
Manufacturers of Thompson submachine guns have advertised in newspapers and radio to "encourage" Americans to buy their guns. Gangs are their biggest potential customers.This kind of behavior that looks quite "ridiculous" 50 years later, at this time, the government doesn't care at all.
That being the case, why should the American Cowboy trouble him?
John Bull couldn't care less.
A few days ago, a "Mission Mission" in Great Britain was expelled from the country by Tibetan monks and laymen. Not only the Panchen Lama and the Kashag government had a clear attitude, but even the Dalai Lama lost his previous "enthusiasm".The British left in despair. The Chinese government immediately sent a note to the British Minister Plenipotentiary in China. There was only one central idea. What did Britain plan to do?
Before Britain could reply, the Chinese government announced that a military exercise would be held on the southwestern border.The location was set near northern Myanmar. Although it did not "cross the border", it was far away from Ah San.
As soon as the news came out, the British immediately became nervous. This time, it was their turn to ask, what exactly does Huaxia want to do?
When Marshal Lou received the telegram from President Sima, Li Jinyan was sitting by the side.
Knowing what had happened, Li Jinyan slapped his thighs with a smile, saying that "non-governmental organizations" made friendly visits, and if they were friendly several times, it was hard to guarantee that a second McMahon line would be created.
It can also be seen from the telegram that this time is indeed just a drill, and the purpose is purely "scare".If the British are not yet sensible, it may not be as simple as "scary".
After all, President Sima, like Marshal Lou, came from a military background, and no one is ambiguous about using real swords and guns.
