Chapter 491: The concession cannot be without a bottom line
He rubbed his eyes that were a little achy due to the extreme lack of sleep, and looked at the completely bright sky outside the window. ['. Yang Zhen put down the telegrams and negotiation materials he had drafted for various ministries, and Yang Zhen, who had been busy all night, read
She looked at her watch, turned to Yuan Zhiruo, who insisted on accompanying her without going to rest, and said, "Xiao Yuan, please make me a cup of stronger tea."
In response to Yang Zhen's request, Yuan Zhiruo, who has now fully entered the role of secretary, shook her head. Instead of following his instructions, she solemnly said: "No. 1, what you need now is not tea, but rest. You now
I have been working continuously for nearly fifty hours and must take a break."
Although they have not worked together for a long time, they are very clever. With the help of Xiao Huzi, Yuan Zhiruo, who already understands Yang Zhen's general personality and knows how to persuade Yang Zhen, said: "No. 1, you are a college graduate and you should understand scientific principles.
.When people are extremely tired, their brain thinking will suffer from certain logical confusion, and they will often make wrong judgments."
"As a commander, your mind should be kept awake at all times. So what you need now is not strong tea, but sleep. As your secretary and health doctor, I have the responsibility to remind you that you should rest. This is not right.
You are responsible for your body and also for the troops."
Regarding Yuan Zhiruo's insistence, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "I will have to talk to the political commissar and Major General Grigorenko later, so my head must be clearer. There are some things that must be discussed today, and we don't have much time.
There is a delay here. As for rest, I will find time to sleep for a while. As for now, there is no time. Go ahead, I can still support it now."
"On your side, you have been busy with me for another night. I will give you half a day off and find a place to rest for a while. From now on, as long as I don't have any special instructions, you should not stay up late with me. At nine o'clock
Go and have a rest. You are a girl, and your body will not be able to bear it if you don’t get enough rest. Don’t listen to Hu Zi’s insistence on preparing any midnight snacks for me, I’m not that rich.”
Hearing Yang Zhen's words, Yuan Zhiruo shook her head. Although she wanted Yang Zhen to take a rest from the bottom of her heart, as a secretary, she still obeyed Yang Zhen's instructions and made a cup of stronger tea and gave it to Yang Zhen.
The breakfast was brought over.
When Li Yanping arrived, Yang Zhen was finishing a simple breakfast and drinking strong tea with a frown on his face. He neither drank tea nor coffee, and his favorite drink was cold boiled water. These fine teas seized were in his
The taste in the mouth was bitter and strong, almost like drinking Coptis chinensis. Although the tea brewed by Yuan Zhiruo was not very strong, it still made Yang Zhen frown after drinking it.
Looking at Yang Zhenyao's red eyes and his expression while drinking strong tea, Li Yanping shook his head: "You stayed up all night again, right? Lao Guo is in charge of Tonghe, what are you worried about? The body is the revolution
How much money will you be able to afford if you keep going on like this? Even if you are the youngest person in the military team, if you continue like this, you will soon become the first person to be dragged down."
When Yang Zhen heard Li Yanping's complaints, he shook his head and said with a smile: "To be honest, Lao Li was lying when he said he wasn't tired. I'm not a tough guy either. But there is no way. All these threads are put together.
How can we do it without sorting it out? We are now at a critical intersection and cannot make the slightest mistake."
"Although there is Lao Guo on the other side of the river, I am not too worried, but the progress of the war must at least be under control. If I take a rest, I will not be able to deal with any changes as soon as possible. And with the United States
In human negotiations, every detail must be carefully considered."
"Those of us are used to handling guns. We may not be able to do anything about shooting guns, but when it comes to making guns, we all look at each other with disdain. The introduction of military equipment is very important, and it can be said to play a decisive role in our future.
, is directly related to our future life and death. We cannot spend a high price and buy back a pile of junk. We also need to think carefully about Major General Grigorenko."
"We cannot fight an unprepared war. Each of these things must be carefully considered. That is, we must not pay too high a price to obtain what we want, and we must not deny the sweetness to those Americans and Soviets.
On the battlefield, we are not afraid of anyone. But in the shopping mall, we can't even compare to others for a fraction. If we don't think carefully about it ourselves, we will just let others sell it and help count the money."
"Old Li, if you don't come to me, I'm going to find you. Today we have to continue to fight with that Major General Grigorenko. The tank production line must be established before the end of the year. There is not much time left for us.
No matter what, we must finalize the matter today. You don’t have to worry about me, I’m still young and can survive.”
Speaking of the introduction of the tank production line, Li Yanping thought about it and said: "Now the introduction has been decided, the current difference is in the model and how to pay for it. Our differences now mainly focus on these two aspects, and
The main thing is the means of payment.”
"Lao Yang, I think judging from the current situation, there is little hope of obtaining all loans from Jiangbei. Big Brother has a very good nose. They should already know about our negotiations with the Americans. They insist that we use US dollars to purchase all,
I think I have already received some information."
"Since Jiangbei has decided to sell T-26 tanks and BT tanks to us, I don't think the difference in models will be too big. This should be discussed quickly. The main difference now is the payment method. The gap between the two sides is even bigger.
Yuan. Since Jiangbei insists on no longer providing loans, Lao Yang, do you think we should take a step back? Time waits for no one, they can afford it, but we can’t."
"You see, after the end of the first phase of your campaign, as our army occupied the entire territory of Boli, Yilan, and Mishan, several large coal mines in the North Manchuria area occupied by the Japanese army are now in our hands. Now the Northeast Bureau and the Military Region have
There are four large coal mines in the Qitaihe area in Heli and Boli, the Jixijie coal mine at the junction of Mishan and Muling, and the Shuangyashan area in southwest Fujin."
"Especially Qitaihe, I heard from Soviet experts that it is the best industrial coal. This kind of high-quality industrial coal is very rare even in the Soviet Union. From the Japanese and puppet materials I seized, these four
This large coal mine produces nearly 10 million tons of coal a year, and it is all excellent industrial coal."
"The annual output of these coal mines is not low, but our own digestion capacity is limited. Coupled with the military factories and the few thermal power plants within the territory, as well as winter heating use, the annual coal consumption is only one million tons.
It's already very good. We want to sell the remaining coal, but we have no place to sell it. We want to digest it ourselves, but we don't have that much strength. Even if it is according to your plan, even if it is all built, we will not be able to consume so much coal."
"In these large coal mines we have successively occupied, more than 100,000 miners and their families have been liberated. These people are of different ages, and you cannot recruit them all into the army. With the introduction of agricultural machinery, our production
The Construction Corps cannot arrange for so many people at once. These miners and their families must find a place for them to eat."
"In order to maintain the livelihood of the miners, we not only cannot stop coal production, but must immediately resume production. However, no one wants the produced coal, so it can only be piled in the open air. The Far East of the Soviet Union is limited by population and transportation capacity.
Most of the coal can only be transported from the west, which is not very convenient."
"For the introduction of the production line, we can purchase it with cash. As for the five hundred tanks in the plan, I think we can negotiate with them to use coal to pay for it. Of course, if we can negotiate, it would be best to buy them all with coal. In this way,
It can save our precious foreign exchange and meet the need to introduce equipment. At the same time, it can maintain the production of these large coal mines and solve the problem of coal sales."
"I understand what you are thinking, but Lao Yang can't look at things from just one side. We have been engaged in military struggles, but after the expansion of the base area, economic construction must also be put on the agenda. The basic necessities, food, housing and transportation of millions of people, plus the
We have to consider the lives of 100,000 coal miners and lumberjacks."
"I talked to the commander-in-chief and my eldest brother last night. The Northeast Working Committee is seizing the time to resume coal mine production in the newly liberated areas. They agreed to use coal as an export target in the future. In addition to repaying foreign debts, they will also purchase equipment and some living expenses from Jiangbei.
Materials. And under the premise that military tasks are paramount, a large part of the exported coal will be allocated to the military region."
"The Soviet Union is trying to choke us on this matter because they want to get a share of our current results and pursue their own interests. Since the key to our goal is now in their hands, I think
It is also necessary to make an appropriate concession."
"The most important thing is that during yesterday's negotiations, Major General Grigorenko mentioned coal in the Qitaihe area several times. I think they may have been planning it for a long time. Didn't you notice? He came to watch the battle this time and brought
There are experts in geology and coal among his entourage. What is a military observation group doing with a few coal experts?"
"I think they may have already set their sights on these very large coal mines in Northern Manchuria. As for requiring cash payment, it should be just a means for them to maximize their profits. If the Soviet Union agrees that we pay with coal, I
I think we can still reach an agreement.
"What worries me is that their purpose will not be that simple. Once their demands exceed what we can accept and tolerate, how should we do it? This is also what the commander-in-chief has been considering. The commander-in-chief
He told me last night that in order to achieve the goal, some compromises can be made. But concessions must not be unprincipled until the end. We must have our own bottom line."
Having said this, Li Yanping was silent for a moment, looked at Yang Zhen's expression after hearing what he said, and then said: "In addition to a few large coal mines, Big Brother probably also has graphite from Heli and Liu Mao."
Mine. I have received a report from the first division. The Soviet technicians we hired have repeatedly entered the Heli area to conduct surveys without permission, and have repeatedly used the opportunity to return to China to visit relatives to send out ore specimens. Our man
Big Brother, your eyes are so fierce."
