The middle-aged man immediately became nervous, and the two young people also subconsciously leaned over.
"It's nothing." The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "It's just some machinery and equipment, not worth much."
"Machines and equipment are worthless? Are you kidding? These are hens that can lay golden eggs!" Zhong Yi cursed a few times in his heart, but he did not expose the middle-aged man.
Zhong Yi asked again: "You moved from Nanjing, right? Why do you stay here and not leave?"
At this time, the middle-aged man could also see that Zhong Yi had no bad intentions and his expression was slightly relaxed.
At that moment the middle-aged man replied: "Yes, we moved from Nanjing, but if you are unlucky enough to drink cold water, your teeth will get jammed. Just as we walked to Langxi, we encountered Japanese invaders entering the city, and the porters we hired ran away." I¡¯m completely depleted, and in a panic, I don¡¯t know where to throw my money and belongings, so I can only spend them here.¡±
Zhong Yi said: "Your factory has so much equipment, so it should be quite large. Why don't you use waterways?"
The middle-aged man sighed and said with a grimace: "It's just a difference of one thought!"
It seems that the middle-aged man has not found a suitable person to talk to for a long time, and he has been holding back too much depression. When he seizes the opportunity, he immediately pours out his bitterness.
"Master Jun, to tell you the truth, before the fall of Nanjing, our Dafengnian ammonium sulfate plant had just been built not long ago, but the products were really popular. Even before they left the factory, they were already booked out." Talking about its heyday. , the middle-aged man's eyes immediately revealed a strange glint, and he added, "Managers of several foreign banks were worried that they would not be able to buy the goods, and even paid the full price in advance!"
Zhong Yi¡¯s heart moved slightly after hearing this, ammonium sulfate factory? This is chemical fertilizer! In this era, can fertilizers be sold well?
After pausing for a moment, the middle-aged man slapped his thigh again and said with great annoyance: "Because the product was so popular, I got greedy for a moment, so I continued the production operation and did not close down the business and pack the equipment according to the deadline required by the National Government. I originally thought that it would take the Japs three to five months to reach Nanjing, but who would have thought!"
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man clapped his hands fiercely and couldn't say any more, but his annoyance was palpable.
Who could have thought that the national army would be defeated so quickly, and who would have thought that the Japanese would reach Nanjing so quickly?
After a long while, the middle-aged man adjusted his mood and continued: "By the time we dismantled the equipment, packed it, and ordered trains and ferries, it was already too late. Not only had the transportation costs skyrocketed, even if you could afford it, With the sky-high prices, it¡¯s no longer possible to book carriages and ferries, and all the carriages and ferries have been requisitioned by the government.¡±
After a pause, the middle-aged man continued: "There is no other way. We can only hire porters to transport the equipment and take the land route. As a result, we met the Japanese in Langxi and entered the city. It's not a good time. This is really a bad time."
Zhong Yi said: "Then have you ever thought about what to do next?"
"What else can we do?" The middle-aged man said sadly, "There is really no other way."
Zhong Yi was silent, thinking of no other way, this batch of equipment could only make the Japanese cheaper!
At that moment Zhong Yi said: "By the way, I still don't know what you call you?"
The middle-aged man quickly said: "My surname is Li, Li Xudong, Muzi Li, Xudong of the rising sun."
"It turns out to be Boss Li." Zhong Yi clasped his fists and said, "I am Zhong Yi, the leader of the 367th Regiment of the Central Army. If you need help, you can always go to the Chengdong shelter to find me."
"Huh?" The middle-aged man immediately froze when he heard this.
The two young men behind were also dumbfounded.
Zhong Yi smiled slightly, took Zhao Hanxing and left.
When he reached the corner, Zhao Hanxing couldn't help but ask Zhong Yi: "Master, do you really want to help this guy? He just said that he didn't even know where his money and materials were lost! Bringing them with you can only be a burden!"
"Shut up!" Zhong Yi straightened his face and said fiercely, "You know nothing!"
After a pause, Zhong Yi said again: "The equipment just now can defeat a group army of the Central Army!"
"What?" Now it was Zhao Hanxing's turn to be dumbfounded. Can those equipments withstand a group army?
But Zhong Yi didn't bother to explain to Zhao Hanxing, a literary rogue, because he didn't understand some of the truth.
Zhong Yi said that these equipment can rival a group army of the Central Army. It is really not an exaggeration. If these equipment are safely transported to the rear and rebuilt and put into production, they will be able to continuously produce chemical fertilizers. With chemical fertilizers, crop yields will increase. , even if the annual output is only 5,000 tons, how much more food can be harvested every year, and how many troops can be fed?
What¡¯s more, according to Zhong Yi¡¯s estimation, the production capacity of the Dafengnian ammonium sulfate plant is definitely more than 5,000Ton!
Therefore, we must take away this batch of equipment no matter what, and we must not take advantage of the enemy!
¡¡
However, as soon as Zhong Yi came up with this idea, he immediately encountered a huge test.
Because the two of them walked not far forward, they encountered almost the same situation again. Another pile of boxes were piled haphazardly on the street, with a middle-aged man sitting on them.
Zhong Yi stepped forward and asked, only to find out that this middle-aged man was the owner of a flour mill in Nanjing.
"And the wooden crates behind him contain all the equipment of the flour mill.
It was only then that Zhong Yi suddenly realized that he had encountered a "wandering light industry."
According to historical records, before the full-scale Sino-Japanese War broke out, the light industry in the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou area was actually very developed. During the so-called golden decade of the Republic of China, apart from the real estate industry, the light industry developed the fastest.
These light industries are mainly food, textile, papermaking, printing, pharmaceuticals, and small chemical industries.
After the Sino-Japanese War broke out, light industries moved inward one after another. First they moved to Nanjing. Nanjing was about to be lost. Large business owners sought connections with the government and fled from the railways and waterways. Small workshop owners and small business owners had no one to care about their lives. , I could only think of a way on my own, and walked all the way to Langxi but was intercepted by the Japanese.
Later, the Japanese advanced to Nanjing, and the 3rd theater regained Langxi.
However, by this time, most of these small workshop owners and small business owners have exhausted their financial resources. Although the equipment is there, they no longer have the ability to transport the equipment away.
Later, some of the small workshop owners and small business owners tried their best to transport the equipment to the rear area, and began an unimaginable light industrial wandering. These workshop owners and business owners went through untold hardships and finally transported the equipment to the rear area. The hardships involved I'm afraid only they themselves know it.
However, most of the machinery and equipment, including the Dafengnian Ammonium Sulfate Plant, are cheap to the devil!
Thinking of this, Zhong Yi's mood immediately became heavy. If it was just a Dafengnian ammonium sulfate factory, their 367 regiment could barely carry it with them, but if they wanted to take away all the light industries that wandered to southern Anhui, it would be difficult. Catch or not, after all, their 367 group now only has more than 300 people, and their manpower is limited. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
