Chapter 236 (1/2)

”Don't let that get out.” Gu Fufang twisted the burning ashes of the letter paper with her fingers, lowered her floating eyelids, and slowly spat out a bubble of white smoke in her mouth.

The old calendar year passed in a flash.

On the eighth day of the year of Gengchen (1940), Gu Qi was shocked to learn from the Japanese that Fang Jiying was shot and killed by Japanese puppet agents on New Year's Eve.

Gu Qi didn't know that Fang Jiying was a member of Zhongtong, and he didn't believe that such a woman with Japanese blood as Fang Jiying would serve for the Chongqing government.

It's not a rumor that Fang Jiying is going to murder Ding Modun because of emotional entanglement.

What happened to Gu Wanjia, his elder sister, before she fled Shanghai, would not be the same as Fang Jiying if she made a big fuss.

In this regard, Gu Qi is more determined that as long as the Shanghai group of Japanese support agents can not force people, they should wear the hat of a Zhongtong agent.

As the saying goes, things hurt others, like Fang's famous city in politics

If he can't keep a daughter, he will not be able to keep his family as a merchant who has no soldiers. If he continues to live under their noses, he will not be able to keep his integrity.

Gu Qi had a long talk with his father.

A few days later, Gu Qi met with Xu enzeng from Chongqing at Sanlian bookstore in the US concession. The next day, he went to HSBC to transfer a large sum of money to Chongqing government.

On that night, Gu Fufang, with his wife and two daughters, secretly boarded a cruise ship to Hong Kong that had been arranged. One of them was escorted by Xu enzeng's people. Two days later, he arrived in Hong Kong smoothly.

At the same time, taking the opportunity to inspect the factories in Zhejiang, Gu Qi entered Jiangxi from western Zhejiang in disguise, and then arrived in Chongqing from Jiangxi. After meeting Gu Jun, he set up a textile factory in the inconspicuous county around Chongqing.

Chongqing is good at sericulture around Chengdu, and there is no large-scale war, so the supply of silk is sufficient. However, due to the underdeveloped industry in the western region, the efficiency of processing silk fabrics is very low, and the price of silk on the market is very high. Even so, the supply can not meet the demand.

When Gu Qi saw this, he secretly called Fu, a few teachers in Gu's factory in Zhejiang Province, to help him to produce silk products in Chongqing.

Most of their families were not in Zhejiang. After Gu Qi left, they were fed up with it

After being exploited by the Japanese, they were willing to go to Chongqing. With Gu Qi's help, they arrived in Chongqing smoothly.

Koo's textile factory was soon established in the counties around Chongqing. At first, because the machines couldn't be transported in, the efficiency was very low, and the production department still produced 300 cloth samples a day. After Gu Jun pulled the thread, a batch of machines were transported from Europe to Chongqing via Myanmar and Yunnan. At the same time, thousands of people were working in the workshop at the peak of the day. Due to the neat and dense stitches and novel designs of the machines, the products were sold to Hunan, Hubei and other places as soon as they were put on the market.

In April of this year, the battle in Changsha became more and more fierce. Lin Junmai was ordered to support several times, and he had a premonition that the situation in Yichang was not good.

In terms of the art of war, in Japan's expedition to China, all long-range operations must be carried out quickly. If Japan falls into a confrontation swamp in a certain city or place, it will be very unfavorable to the whole war situation.

The Japanese military commander, who sleeps every day in books such as the art of war and the annals of the Three Kingdoms, can not spend all his troops in the battle for Changsha.

Lin Junmai and the senior generals stationed in Yichang in the fifth theater of the National Army believed that Yichang was in danger. Instead of attacking Changsha by force, the Japanese army had better go straight to Chongqing, Sichuan, where the Kuomintang's capital was. To attack Chongqing, we must first open Yichang, the gateway of Sichuan. This battle is on the way.

After careful consideration, Lin Junmai said to Qiao ruochu, ”madam, you'd better go back to Chongqing first.”

Qiao ruochu was not happy when he heard this. She frowned and began to complain: ”it's hard to sleep there because of bombing every day.”

”If at first most of the important people of the central government were in Chongqing, even if they were bombed by the Japanese army, it would be safest there. Besides, the US air force is also helping Chongqing to establish an air defense system, and the troops stationed in Chongqing will protect their families. You will be fine.”

Lin Junmai patiently persuades his wife to leave here. He is really afraid that the Japanese army will suddenly launch a double attack on the ground and in the air. At that time, it will be difficult for him to decide whether to perform his duty as a soldier or as a husband.

Qiao ruochu had never seen Lin Junmai talk to her so seriously. Knowing what he was worried about, he agreed to return to Chongqing with tears in his eyes.

Before getting on the bus, she closed her eyes and stroked her husband's hair tip, eyebrow tip, eyes, nose bridge, lips with her hand. The palm fell on his angular jaw and rubbed his stubble repeatedly until the sweat made their skin moist.
