The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 439: Thirst for talents
I dare not say anything else, but after his repeated "educations" and the chain reaction of the stinky Dandelion Project, Hiroshi Suzuki has become his loyal dog.

"His coming has little to do with the withdrawal of troops from Hunchun."

Jiang Cheng sat for a while and then began to feel dizzy again, which showed that he was seriously injured this time.

"I'm leaving first. You take Yucheng and a few civil servants with you to go and tell him... You guys keep quiet and let him tell you his purpose."

While he was helping her lie down and rest, Jiang Cheng took the towel handed to him by Sun Zhengnan and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, while continuing to speak, "I saw Xue'er's eyes were swollen from crying. Father-in-law must be seriously injured, right?"

"Ask the Guard Brigade to arrange for the most appropriate people to take care of her. Also... Huixin is about to give birth, so you have to take good care of the family in Jilin Prefecture."

"Send a telegram to Fengtian, asking him to finish his official duties in the provincial capital as soon as possible and return to Jilin—"

"Damn it, I have a bad feeling. The Japanese are probably targeting Jilin. They want to kill me and then try to plant me or win over a pro-Japanese warlord so that he can support them in the rear when they go north to Siberia."

Seeing that even though Jiang Cheng was lying down, he still continued to arrange work with a worried look on his face, Sun Zhengnan nodded repeatedly and said, "Master Jiang, you should take a rest first... Let me take care of these things."

When he said these words, Jiang Cheng was actually feeling sleepy, but what he was most worried about was the July Brave in Yingkou...

Unlike the Deep Blue Iris last time, the cargo on this ship was almost all his;
In addition to various military surpluses from World War I in Europe, there were also power plant equipment and so on.

Jiang Cheng lay down and fell asleep in a daze. In between sleep and wakefulness, he seemed to hear someone making noise outside the door.

When he opened his eyes a little, the whole room was in darkness. Xu Fushan, who stayed by his side to take care of him, saw that he had woken up and hurried forward to ask what he needed.

Jiang Cheng just felt a little urgent, and asked "what time" when the other party supported him.

"Master, it's past ten o'clock at night...you should go to bed after taking the medicine."

Xu Fushan helped him urinate. Jiang Cheng heard the noises outside getting louder and louder. He frowned and said, "Let's go see what's going on later."

When he lay down again, his personal guard checked the report at the door: "Master Jiang, Commander Zhang is back..."

Afraid that he didn't understand which officer Zhang it was, he added, "Zhang Xuecheng."

Before going to bed, he was still worried about his goods. Now that this good brother is back, Jiang Cheng is naturally overjoyed: "He's back after completing his studies? The good guy was worried about him - stop stopping him, let him in quickly!"

Xu Fushan was somewhat worried: "Master, the dean asked you to rest more. It's so late. Can we talk about it tomorrow?"

Jiang Cheng glared at him, and the guard dared not to persuade him anymore. He turned around and trotted to turn on the light.

A few minutes later, Zhang Xuecheng, Huang Yongan and Vasily all came in. Jiang Cheng still felt a little dizzy when he sat up. The three of them saw his face change from excitement to surprise or sadness. Zhang Xuecheng was the first to yell, "Brother! What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Cheng waved his hand and smiled: "No problem... Are you all back? But I was so worried, I was afraid something might happen to you."

Zhang Xuecheng looked him up and down. "I just heard from your guards that you were attacked on your way back. I thought, who the hell did this to you?"

Huang Yongan was also furious: "It's obvious that they are the Japanese! They are just a bunch of bastards... I will kill them all sooner or later!"

Seeing that even the old Russian Vasily was getting angry, Jiang Cheng smiled knowingly and said, "Then I'll have to leave the matter of revenge to you brothers." "Okay, revenge is definitely necessary, but I'm afraid we have to think long and hard about this matter - with our current strength, we don't have the strength to fight the Kwantung Army head-on."

Even after more than a year of development, Jiang Cheng is very clear about one thing: although the Northeast has some industrial foundation, this foundation... is almost negligible.

Moreover, World War I had already entered its final stages, and after the Paris Peace Conference, the arms embargo on China was about to begin.

By that time, the challenges facing its industrialization will be far greater than it is now.

"Yes, sir, you are right. We have no time to waste."

Vasily took a half step forward and reported the general situation of the ship:

With the help of the Marshal and the British and French, the unloading and clearance of the July Brave went relatively smoothly.

However, the Japanese side proposed to open all warehouses for inspection, which was rejected and opposed by all three parties. So, the port kept the goods for another two days.

However, the Japanese side has already regarded Dashuai as a partner of the "future three northeastern provinces". After some consultations between the parties, the goods were fully released.

After Vasily finished explaining the situation, Zhang Xuecheng took over and said, "In two days at most, all the goods will arrive at Jilin Prefecture... But Feilan, there is something I want to report to you."

Seeing that he looked a little strange, Jiang Cheng didn't say anything: "You and I are brothers, just speak frankly."

Zhang Xuecheng scratched his head and said, "Oh, I didn't expect there were so many illegal immigrants on the ship."

Jiang Cheng was stunned: "What, what does smuggling mean?"

Huang Yongan looked at Zhang Xuecheng and said quickly: "There are many foreigners... Their countries are at war, and they heard that there is a way out in our Northeast, so they want to try their luck."

Jiang Cheng was extremely disgusted with these colonists. He was so angry that he planned to order them to find their own consul to repatriate them...

But when his eyes stopped at Vasily, the foreigner, Jiang Cheng's eyes immediately lit up: "Wait a minute, have you asked these people what they do?"

Seeing Jiang Cheng's interest, Zhang Xuecheng said excitedly, "I knew you would ask!"

"I'm not in a hurry to let them go back. I heard that there are many engineering talents here... Because I heard from my uncle before that many foreigners were employed."

"I'm also wondering if there are any professionals among them. Our power plants are in need of talent!"

Hearing the excitement in his tone, Jiang Cheng immediately laughed: "Look, look! You really are worthy of being from Shuai Ye's family. Such vision...haha!"

Zhang Xuecheng was stunned for a moment, then pouted and said, "Are you serious? You're not making fun of me again, are you?"

Jiang Cheng laughed twice: "I'm not being sarcastic! I'm just praising you for your ability, brother - I'll leave this matter to you, take all these so-called illegal immigrants back to Jilin Prefecture for investigation."

"Then I will arrange for Lao Sun and Yucheng to work in different categories... Brother Xuecheng, haha, you have done a great job! There are really a few talented people, so why is Jilin really eager to recruit talents!"
