At exactly 1 p.m. on January 14, 1923.
Outside the Chaoyang Gate of Jinling City in Huai Province, hundreds of armored vehicles and trucks were parked neatly on the dirt road outside the city, and thousands of soldiers from the Third Battalion were also ready to go.
Lu Xiaojia put on the M36 general officer uniform and stood at the front of the team riding a tall horse.
Out of boredom, I couldn't help but look around and found a Beiyang five-color flag hanging on the city wall.
Moreover, on both sides of the five-color flag, there were actually photos of himself and his father in formal wear, which made him so embarrassed that he could dig out a two-bedroom and one-living room on the ground with his feet.
Needless to say, this must be the work of his father, Lu Yongxiang. These warlords like to be flashy and have to set up a military band when entering a city.
"Reporting to the commander, the entire army is now ready to enter the city. Please give your instructions!" Dragon Emblem Hui reported.
Lu Xiaojia said without hesitation: "Enter the city!"
"The whole army is here, enter the city!"
After the order was issued, the leading military band began to play the trumpet, clarinet, trombone... and the snare drum and snare drum to play "Helen's March"
Seeing the queue of officers in front entering the city gate, a convoy full of soldiers outside the city gate followed closely behind, slowly driving into Jinling City to the accompaniment of military music.
After passing through the city gate, what came into view were numerous people holding small flags and lining the streets to welcome them into the city.
"Welcome the Master of Benevolence and Righteousness to the city!"
"Welcome Master Lu to the city!"
"Welcome Marshal Lu to the city!"
Everyone's face was filled with happy smiles, and it didn't look like anyone was forcing them.
This made Lu Xiaojia a little confused. When did she have such a high personality charm?
"Captain Long, what's going on? I don't want you to engage in such nonsense?" Lu Xiaojia was busy waving his hands while asking about the dragon emblem.
"Master, this is not our intention. It is probably a welcome ceremony specially organized by the officials, businessmen, gangs and others in Jinling to show their goodwill to us."
As soon as Dragon Crest finished speaking, Huang Foyin took up the conversation again, "By the way, master, the Chamber of Commerce represented by Jiang Yunshan, the richest man in Jinling, heard that our army has stationed in Jinling. It has no place for the time being, and it has also taken nearly a hundred houses and houses. , villa, lend it to us for free.”
"In addition, they have also booked a banquet and a dance party at the Yangtze Hotel in Jinling, and are preparing to welcome you, Master, tomorrow night..."
"Haha, these guys are very flattering, but they want to defeat me with sugar-coated bullets. This is wishful thinking." Lu Xiaojia laughed.
"You're still talking about lending it, it's clearly mine."
After that, he took out a pamphlet from his pocket and handed it to Dragon Emblem, and continued to give instructions:
"Captain Long, let the soldiers settle down for the time being. You can give them two days of leave in turn, but remember not to cause any problems with military discipline."
"In another three days, Commander Long, you will search the homes of all the people on this list, pull out the key personnel for public trial, and then kill them."
"Yes, Master."
…
No. 15, Haining Road, Jinling City.
Looking at this exquisite Chinese and Western style villa in front of me, amid the green trees, the looming white plaster walls, combined with the light red roof tiles, it looks quite exciting.
Lu Xiaojia thought that this sugar-coated bullet was going to hit her aorta directly. She came back to her senses and looked at Zhang Jinxi and Lu Yongxiang who were a little stunned.
"Dad, look at your son's villa. Is it better than your old house in Hangzhou?"
"Haha, you kid is a fan of foreign things. Your father's old-fashioned house is no worse than your foreign house." Lu Yongxiang came back to his senses and said nonchalantly.
"It doesn't matter, I like this style."
Lu Xiaojia couldn't help but sigh. In the past, he lived in an office, but now he finally has an exclusive residence, which is a gorgeously decorated "HOUSe"
"Let's go, wife, I'll take you in to take a look." After saying that, Lu Xiaojia led Zhang Jinxi and walked inside.
…
In the office on the second floor of the villa, Lu Xiaojia tidied up and went back to work.
He has been spending a lot of money recently. The silver coins he blackmailed from the three tycoons last time were flowing out like a faucet, so he was going to take stock of his property.
The last purchase of hundreds of engineering vehicles cost 2 million, railway repairs cost 13 million, training aircraft cost 1.6 million, and light tanks cost 1.25 million... So now there are only 12.56 million silver dollars in the system mall.
Of course, he has gained something from these battles and the annihilation of the 65,000 direct troops. He currently has about 4 million silver dollars in his account, as well as a lot of gold, jewelry, silver... and the like, there should be 7 million.
Lu Xiaojia said to herself: "I really don't belong to the family. I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, so I can't help but spend this money." However, his father still had 20 tons of gold.
Today, the main types of gold circulating in the Chinese market are 312 grams of large yellow croaker, which costs about 500 silver dollars per piece, and 31.2 grams of small yellow croaker, which costs about 50 silver dollars per piece.
A quick calculation shows that these 20 tons of gold are equivalent to approximately 34 million silver dollars, which is another huge sum of money.
And some time ago, I won more than a dozen industries from Sheng Hengyi, such as Daoshang Bank, Tianjin Telegraph Bureau, Steamship Merchants Bureau... They are all operating as usual. A conservative estimate is that they can generate about 600 to 800 yuan a year. Benefits of ten thousand silver dollars.
"By the way, I gave Wilson US$500,000 in stock trading funds some time ago." Lu Xiaojia suddenly remembered and couldn't help but look forward to it.
After all, the world economic crisis is still brewing, and Sam's stock market is still in full swing. I don't know how many people are making a fortune on Wall Street.
And he also pointed out the Sunshine Avenue to Wilson. If he can't make money in the stock market, it only means that he is mentally retarded.
"Boom! Boom!"
There was a sudden knock on the door, and Lu Xiaojia subconsciously lowered her head and glanced at her watch, thinking that the intelligence officers must have arrived. "Please come in!"
Yan Shenying, Du Ma, Shen Qiqi, and Zheng Yaoxian pushed the door in and greeted them coldly.
"Lu Zuo!"
"Lu Zuo!"
Lu Xiaojia has long been accustomed to this. These intelligence guys are ruthless and don't talk much.
"Well, everyone, please take a seat!"
"Your special agent team and espionage team, please give me a brief report on the work of each team." After giving cigarettes to several people, Lu Xiaojia lit some for herself.
"Master, so far, our special agent team has cleared 8 rat nests in Yu Province and arrested 973 agents and spies of all kinds... According to your order, all the Fusang people have been executed." Yan Shen Ying stood up sharply and took the lead in reporting the situation.
Lu Xiaojia flicked the ashes of his cigarette and affirmed the performance of the special agent team, "Well, it seems that your special agent team has done a good job in cleaning up. I never like people to do small tricks on my chassis. Now in Huai Province The clean-up work must also be carried out quickly, give me special care for the Fuso pigs, and kill one as soon as you catch one."
"And where your special agent team has cleared up, I don't want the rats to reappear, so I'm going to add 500 more members to you, but these members are all novices, so you have to teach them well."
Duma exhaled a burst of smoke and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, Mr. Lu, I, Duma, was born as an instructor. If you give me 2 months, I can turn all these rookies into veterans."
Lu Xiaojia turned her eyes to Zheng Yaoxian.
"How about you Yaoxian, how is the work of establishing the Huaguo Intelligence Network going now?"
"Master, the situation of our spy team is as follows. The eight foreign spy agencies have basically stabilized and are trying their best to penetrate into various fields." Zheng Yaoxian stood up, first reported the situation abroad, and then continued to report the situation in China.
"Lu Zuo, the establishment of our Huaguo intelligence network is progressing slowly. Currently, most of our espionage team is concentrated in the four provinces of Fujian, Gan, Huai, and Anhui. Of course, in Pingjing, Guangdong, and We also have our forces in important areas like Fengcheng, and their penetration is relatively good..."
"Okay, Yaoxian, I understand. You are short of people now. It's my fault." Seeing that Zheng Yaoxian was a little embarrassed, Lu Xiaojia quickly stopped him.
After all, the spy team currently only has 170 Thousand Faces Agents. Asking them to monitor the entire country of China, doesn't this make Zheng Yaoxian stretched?
"Yao Xian, I can't blame you. I didn't think of this before. I will also add 1,000 members for you. Just maintain the status quo of your spy team."
"After you and the Duma train these rookies, let them disperse and infiltrate all parts of China to continue to build an intelligence network."
"Yes, Lu Zuo."
The establishment of the intelligence network cannot be careless, and the backbone must be absolutely loyal, so Lu Xiaojia plans to purchase new recruits directly from the system mall to recharge.
He immediately opened the system and spent 100,000 silver dollars to place an order for 1,500 recruits.
"Okay, that's the end of the meeting. The new members for you will arrive this afternoon."
"In addition, I hope that the special agents and espionage teams of your MI6 Bureau can cooperate sincerely, go hand in hand, become bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!"
"Yes, Lu Zuo!"
