Smugglers, black market brokers, brothel madams, lone thieves, in just a few days, Tangcheng has come into contact with dozens of such people, and some of them have accepted Tangcheng's recruitment. Tang Cheng did not hide his actions these days, but the place where he met these people was always at the military camp. If anyone investigated and asked, Tang Cheng could use the black market in the military camp as a cover and only said that he had talked to these people. Black market business.
The bureau chief was not easy to deceive, so when the bureau chief called to ask about the matter, Tang Cheng honestly reported his itinerary these days and also explained his purpose. "The British in Myanmar have clearly shown their attitude. They have no intention of understanding things in Myanmar now, because they care more about the situation at home than in Myanmar. The Allied counterattack is imminent, and the British need to stabilize India. Because they need India to deliver various supplies to the British mainland."
"Compared with India, the situation in Myanmar is much worse. If the British want to continue to control Myanmar as an overseas colony, they will at least start from now on transferring a certain amount of materials from India to support the reconstruction of Myanmar. Unfortunately, the British They only care about their homeland, and the life and death of the Burmese people are not at all a consideration for them. Aung San of the Burmese National Salvation Army was supposed to be the white-glove agent privately selected by the British. Unfortunately, our appearance made the British even more hopeful. At this time, see a chaotic Myanmar."
"As long as Myanmar continues to be in chaos, the British don't have to worry. While they are taking care of their homeland and European battlefields, major changes will occur in their overseas colonies. However, the British look down on Aung San and underestimate us. As long as the opportunity comes, our armed forces in northern Myanmar will take advantage of the situation and move south to wipe out Aung San's Myanmar National Salvation Army. As long as the land transportation between Yangon and Wanding is opened, even if the British are aware of the problem, they will not Find a way to deal with us."
"So, from now on, I must recruit all the talents Myanmar needs in advance. Even smugglers and thieves, as long as the number of Chinese is the majority in Myanmar, Myanmar will be ours." Tangcheng's report to the Bureau Among them, it does not include the content that he will build a factory in Myanmar. In Tangcheng's overall plan, establishing a factory is the top priority. Tangcheng will never inform the outside world of all its plans until the situation becomes truly clear.
Population is the most urgent thing that needs to be solved in Tangcheng. Now Wanding has transformed from a small border port into a busy human smuggling node. The border troops who were bribed by Ma Ye and others at a large price chose to turn a blind eye to the large number of Chinese who entered Myanmar through Wanding every day. Some officers and soldiers in these border troops have even asked people to send their families to Wanding from the mainland, because they know that as long as the Chinese choose to settle in Myanmar, they will get preferential treatment of free farming in northern Myanmar.
Most of the various businessmen who originally did border business in Wanding have now become smugglers. The only goods they smuggle are people. As long as the people they smuggled could enter Myanmar through Wanding alive, they would be able to obtain the Indian tobacco that Hans obtained through the British troops stationed in India. In addition, there are a large amount of military supplies, which Hans and the others use to pay the smugglers in exchange for supplies. If not for this multi-pronged approach, how could the number of Chinese in northern Myanmar have grown to as many as 200,000 so quickly.
The pace of immigration has accelerated a lot, but Tangcheng hopes that the number of Chinese in Myanmar will increase to at least one million, so this kind of human smuggling activity will continue. In the following time, Tang Cheng continued to guard the backyard of the military camp, and more people were waiting to be summoned by him, including many people related to Chongqing's underground party organizations. Tangcheng acted very indifferent to this, because there was no sign on these people's foreheads that they were members of the underground party organization.
"Population, what I need most now is population! Although I may not be able to afford so much money to pay you now, I can first use the tobacco and military supplies from India to offset part of the remuneration with you. As for the rest As for remuneration, we can sign an agreement first. Once the situation in Myanmar stabilizes, we can use Myanmar’s food and minerals to offset the remaining remuneration. And for all the things we sell, those of you who signed the agreement will have priority. The right to buy.”
On the table in front of Tang Cheng, there is a large map of China. On this map of China, Tang Cheng has marked more than a dozen circles of various sizes. Beside the table, there were several middle-aged men with different faces standing. They became faintly excited because of what Tang Cheng had just said. After thinking about it secretly for a while, one of them said to Tang Cheng, "Captain Tang, I heard that there are people in the city who have participated in the road construction project in northern Myanmar. Now we want to know if we still have a chance to participate. ?”
Hearing this, Tang Cheng shook his head slightly, "Impossible! The highway plan in northern Myanmar has already been implemented, and all the shares have been divided. It is impossible for anyone to join now. And I want to explain one thing in advance. Myanmar The roads currently being built in the North are not owned by the current participants. Once the situation in Myanmar stabilizes, these built roads will be taken back into public ownership. The previous participants are all aware of this, and It’s not the result of our coercion.”
Tang Cheng's answer clearly disappointed several people present. After looking around at everyone, Tang Cheng spoke up and continued. "The road is gone, but we still need to build a railway in northern Myanmar! Unlike the situation with roads, the private investors and companies involved in building the railway do not have the right to operate the railway, but they can retain the dividends from the railway. In other words, As long as you participate in the investment and construction of the railway, you will be able to enjoy corresponding dividends based on the proportion of your investment in the future until you voluntarily sell your railway shares."
Is it profitable to invest in railways? Of course it will make money, especially the Myanmar Railway planned in Tangcheng, which is not just a passenger railway. The railway plan proposed by Tangcheng was really too tempting. After everyone present looked at each other, they all unanimously chose to go back to discuss it first. Tang Cheng did not ask them to respond immediately, but when these people said goodbye and left, Tang Cheng made excuses to keep two of them. "I know you are from Yan'an, but I don't care because you and I are not enemies."
Tang Cheng's words almost made the two people opposite him almost jump out of their chairs. Tangcheng is good at searching for lurking Japanese and puppet troops. This has long been understood by the Central Special Branch. At the same time, they also investigated the relationship between Tangcheng and the military commander. Seeing the two people's reactions, Tang Cheng chuckled, then slowly pushed the cigarettes and lighters on the table towards the two of them, and then spoke. "I am Chinese, so I only believe in Chinese people! As long as you are Chinese, I don't care whether you are from Yan'an or from the national government."
"You are from Yan'an. I believe you have investigated me, so you should know that I am not interested in politics, nor do I have any thoughts about politics. One of the reasons why I plotted against Burma is because the expeditionary force left too many things in Burma. My life is not worth it for them. No matter how many people die for the country and the nation, it is all deserved, because this is our country and our nation. But what does Myanmar have to do with us? What bullshit international influence? I’m useless here, I only know that many Chinese have died for damn Burma.”
"The Japanese, including those Europeans, bully us because we are weak. When we are weak, we will be beaten. This is the law of survival that those foreigners believe in. The war has gradually become clearer, and the defeat of the Japanese has been determined. I personally feel that it is necessary It’s time to collect some interest first. Americans are just as troublesome as the British big noses. Even if the Japanese choose to surrender, they will not be willing to see a unified China. Just like the Republic of China, when a warlord separatist regime China, which is in chaos, is more in line with the interests of the United States and Britain."
"I believe that the country can be reunified, but in that case, China will definitely be suppressed collectively by foreign forces led by the United States and Britain. Such a large country cannot always be an agricultural country. If you want to protect this country, you must develop industry. But China Even if it is reunified, it will not be easy for the domestic situation to develop rapidly. Coupled with the deliberate suppression and blockade by external forces, China's development path after reunification will be difficult."
"Hong Kong and Macau are two leased areas, and it is currently impossible for China to take them back. Moreover, both Hong Kong and Macau are too small in area. Even if they are used as an outlet to connect the outside world after China's reunification, the effect is not very good. Myanmar is not It’s the same, first of all, Myanmar has direct access to the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea, which can connect it to Europe and Africa.”
"Secondly, we are now lobbying the British upper class and the royal family, hoping that they can appoint the person we choose to become the Governor-General of Myanmar after the war. Secondly, the industries we develop in Myanmar are all single-purpose, and we choose to voluntarily hand over some of them. Benefits to the British Royal Family. As long as it is protected by the British Royal Family, and as long as we do not go too far, the British will not pay too much attention to Myanmar."
"Finally, that's the most important part! Are you familiar with the secrets and subversions in the Thirty-six Strategies? The industrial facilities I plan to build in Myanmar will become training factories. I will provide factories and equipment. , you provide workers and technicians, and while the factory produces products, it also trains a large number of skilled workers and technicians that are needed domestically."
