It was already 10:30 in the evening when An Yi returned to his home at the foot of Cuiping Mountain and took a shower. He put on a loose long gown and casual clothes, put on a pair of slippers and walked out of the main hall. He came under the slightly chilly tree and drank tea and chatted in a low voice.
The three beauties and Xiaojiu laughed, took the hot tea handed by Gong Qian, took a sip, and praised it. They imitated the old scholar, pacing with their hands behind their backs and their heads raised, as if
Recite a poem:
"The bright moon is like a bright ocean, hanging on the branches blown by the breeze. The earth is enveloped in boundless silver light. It can be said that there is a bright moonlight in front of the bed. I suspect it is frost on the ground. I look up at the bright moon and lower my head to think.
Girl! Hehehe..."
Gong Qian and others did not expect that An Yi, who had been tired for a day, was still in a leisurely mood to do this, and suddenly he was smiling and swaying left and right. Xiaojiu had followed An Yi for many years and had rarely seen An Yi so relaxed and interesting.
He opened his heart and burst into laughter, then looked at the bright moon in the sky thoughtfully, and asked casually if he missed Chu'er in a foreign country?
An Yi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, sighed leisurely, came to sit down next to Gong Qian, smiled, and looked at Zi Xin who was overjoyed opposite him: "Be careful, I'll treat you so beautifully."
Turn your little mouth to the side a little, so as not to blow out the candle."
"You guys, how dare you make fun of me..."
Zi Zixin stood up and walked around behind An Yi, raised her pink fist and punched An Yi hard on the back and shoulder. She accidentally punched An Yi on the hard shoulder bone, making everyone scream in pain, and everyone burst into happiness again.
of laughter.
An Yi was really happy now. He shook his head and said that the person who was beaten didn't cry out, but the one who beat him screamed in pain first. What kind of world is this? Zi Xin was so angry that she wanted to commit violence again. If Ye Qing hadn't called her out in time, he would probably have died.
There's no end to it.
After the lunch banquet, Gong Qian and the other three, accompanied by Yin Jinan and Zhao Rui, visited the ever-expanding Xufu City and asked An Yi to auction off the properties, land, wharves and other property belonging to a large number of the defeated warlords and landowners such as the Liu family.
The money raised from the freight yard was used to build the southern part of Sichuan. It was a big surprise. I was deeply surprised and admired when I saw the lively scene of various cargo ships and passenger ships coming and going on the newly built docks on both sides of the river.
Ye Qing curiously asked how much purchasing power the people in southern Sichuan have now. If so many goods produced by Jiangnan Group and Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai need to be shipped, aren't they afraid of being overstocked and unsaleable?
Yin Jinan proudly answered: Today's southern Sichuan is no longer the backwater it was a year ago. Cement roads connecting counties are gradually opening to traffic. Trade, smelting, machinery, hardware, bearings, printing and dyeing, textiles, etc. have migrated from old Nanchang.
Factories were also completed and put into operation one after another, and metal trading companies began to purchase large quantities of pig iron and copper ingots that were initially processed by people in various counties and regions.
For metals, three small and medium-sized iron ore mines around Luzhou have been mined for half a year. Copper mines and antimony ores from Daliangshan and Zhaotong have been shipped over one after another. The ethnic minority people have become accustomed to selling gold and silver mined and smelted using traditional techniques to the southwest industrial and commercial industry.
Banks use the currency issued by banks to purchase various daily necessities and daily necessities. Today, Xufu City and Luzhou City have become
The two major trading centers in southern Sichuan, and the acquisition and shipment of large quantities of raw and rare timber to the east, have led to an increase in the income of the people in southern Sichuan, gradually bulging wallets, and no problem in terms of purchasing power. If in another year and a half, other places will
Reservoirs, canals, and water cellars have been repaired. With the help of agricultural technicians and the commissioning of fertilizer plants, the people's food and
The output of fruits and vegetables will increase exponentially, and the income will definitely increase significantly. In addition, workers from the disaster areas and occupied areas in Northeast China are constantly pouring into southern Sichuan and have entered major factories. They will receive wages every month, and their purchasing power will increase exponentially.
In turn, it will promote economic development. If this virtuous cycle continues, the hot land of southern Sichuan will only become richer and richer, rather than remaining poor.
The three women walked around all afternoon and gained a lot. They found that in Xufu City, you can actually buy the latest things produced in the Jiangnan area. Even rare gadgets such as cars and motorcycles are also sold. The three of them also found a movie theater and a photography store on the street.
and followed the trend in the teahouse and listened to the programs of Southern Sichuan Radio on the radio for a while.
The Yichang Radio Station was originally planned to be jointly established by Yichang Xingying and the Fifth Army Corps. Due to the cancellation of the Yichang Xingying and the Fifth Army Corps, it was started by the Southern Sichuan Appeasement Office. The broadcasting company was established in Xifu in October this year and was launched nationwide this month.
Radio. Now domestic listeners
Three sets of radio programs can already be listened to. Under An Yi's mission of running the station, which can be compromised but the propaganda position is unshakable, the Jiangxi and Southern Sichuan radio stations have become a precious chess piece that An Yi can't let go of, becoming the propaganda of An Jiajun and the propaganda of An Jiajun.
The strongest position for anti-Japanese thought.
As night fell, Gong Qian and her three daughters declined Yin Jinan and Zhao Rui's dinner arrangements and returned home to have dinner with Xiao Xinghua and her daughter. After bathing in the evening, they sat under the big tree in the yard to exchange their afternoon experiences and wait for An Yi.
Returning. Unexpectedly, An Yi came back, took a shower, put on a long gown, and wrote a few crooked poems. After laughing, everyone's fatigue was reduced a lot after Zi Xin's teasing.
Asking each other about what they had seen and felt in the afternoon, Ye Qing suddenly remembered what Yin Jinan had said about the ethnic minorities selling gold and silver to An Yi's Southwest Industrial and Commercial Bank, and asked An Yi how to calculate it? What was used for the gold and silver?
An Yi answered easily: "Due to smelting and purification process problems, the gold and silver purchased need to be re-purified in the bank's processing workshop. Under the influence of the world economic crisis, the price of silver has fallen again and again, and the price of gold has risen again and again. We are now also through various
In order to increase gold reserves, we also invited domestic and foreign craftsmen to successfully engrave coin molds and manufacture small silver coins commonly used in Sichuan, Hunan, Shaanxi, Yunnan and other places, using advanced
The manufacturing process has been aged to a level that is difficult for non-professional experts to distinguish, and self-engraved and self-made aluminum-nickel alloy coins have begun to be issued in the southwestern provinces, with face values of five cents, two cents, one dime, five cents, and one cent.
Five kinds of them have been accepted by the people in southern Sichuan and western Hunan for several months because of their exquisite production and convenience. They have also been gradually circulated in Chengdu, Kunming and other places. Didn't you notice it today?"
Gong Qian and Ye Qing shook their heads in surprise. They both said they didn't buy anything and didn't notice that even if they sat in the teahouse for a while, Yin Jinan paid the bill on their behalf. Gong Qian thought about it and asked worriedly: "Are you doing this?
Are you worried that the central government and the Ministry of Finance will cause trouble for you?”
"When did the central bank take control of the minting and circulation of currency in the northwest and southwest? Several times before, there were orders to unify the currency, but they failed because of local opposition and unrest. As a result, the central bank's coinage and the local government's coinage were circulated at the same time. Only
Paper money is strictly controlled.
Finance Minister Song is so capable, but he can only limit the paper currency. He has never been able to control silver coins, small copper coins, and alloy coins. What I did is not illegal at all. Even if the central government knows about it, it will be fine. The worst is that I, An Yi,
Be obedient, but I, An Yi, manage such a large area adjacent to the southwest, including Xiangxi, Qian
How can Xi'an and Yunnan, including China, not have their own currency control rights? Rather than letting currency issuers carry out economic plunder through the right to mint and issue coins, why not take a step earlier. By then, even if the central government wants to take back the rights and interests, it will have to give me all the rights.
You have to make up the corresponding amount of gold or silver." An Yi replied nonchalantly.
Ye Qing smiled and asked: "I'm afraid this is another idea from the misers Zhou Chongan and Zhang Xi, right?"
An Yi chuckled: "Exactly! And He Jing, this guy is becoming more and more knowledgeable now, and he even understands economic issues by analogy, which is amazing!"
"By the way, this afternoon Liu Kun, the director of the Political Training Division of the Southern Sichuan Office, also accompanied us on the tour. This guy was a very arrogant person when he was at the Party Headquarters of the Central Committee. I didn't expect to see him today. I found that he has changed a lot. He seems to be more humble and more humble.
You are easy-going, it seems you are still training people at the grassroots level!" Ye Qing said with some emotion.
Xiao Jiu was very happy: "How can this guy be immodest? If Brother Yang Bin hadn't been transferred to the Southern Sichuan Security Commander-in-Chief and concurrently as the office manager at the order of Commander-in-Chief Jiang, Liu Kun and his dozen or so subordinates might not even have a formal office.
, I got angry and rushed to the Office of Appeasement several times to yell, and I was almost arrested.
Hutou and Lao Ding were beaten. If Brother Jinan hadn't stopped them, those people who kept talking about the interests of the party and the country would have shed their skins even if they didn't die. None of the officers and soldiers paid them any attention and went down to the 24th Army and the garrison.
, I don’t even have to drink saliva, and I don’t put down my airs and be an honest person, is that possible?
Our Anjia army, from the commander to the regimental and battalion commanders, who has not risked their lives on the battlefield? Are they not as patriotic as those who are just talking nonsense? They are talking nonsense, and now they see that all parts of southern Sichuan are prosperous.
Everyone has honestly shut their mouths. Patriotism is expressed through actions, and they can only talk about whether big principles are feasible in our military."
"You won't take pictures of Minister Chen and they won't be happy?" Gong Qian asked with a smile.
An Yi didn't care: "At least there is no need to worry now. They, including Finance Minister Song, have all gone down together with the commander-in-chief. They will not be reinstated so quickly. Even if they are reinstated, there will be thousands of urgent matters waiting for them. How can they control southern Sichuan?
These dozen people? Even if you can remember them, you have to give me An Yi face. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not buying it. If you get angry, they will all be driven away. If they can’t be charged with some crime, they will be imprisoned and put on trial in public and shot on the spot. What can they do to me?
Sample?"
Gong Qian and Ye Qing were shocked. They didn't expect An Yi to become so tough now.
When Ye Zixin was studying at school, she saw party agents randomly coming to school to arrest people. She had long been disgusted with their arrogant and domineering behavior. Now when she heard An Yi's heroic words and a look of admiration on her face, she
I almost screamed loudly.
An Yi saw Gong Qian and Ye Qing's eyebrows slightly furrowed and worried about him, and quickly said something to explain: "Sister Qing, sister Qing, you don't have to worry, as long as they don't do anything that harms the interests of our army and the people in southern Sichuan, the younger brothers and sisters will not
Even if I embarrass them, I still have the overall situation in mind.
You may have discovered that counties in southern Sichuan are using anti-counterfeiting identity certificates printed by the Southern Sichuan Appeasement Office. Many people do not know the profound meaning and significance of this move. Starting from March 1st next year, there will be no identity certificates issued by our Appeasement Office.
They cannot do business, work, receive education or open any institutions anywhere in southern Sichuan, nor can they enjoy affordable medical care, various relief benefits, own land, real estate and other real estate, and cannot enjoy legal aid in southern Sichuan.
New people who enter the southern Sichuan area to work and do business must apply for and pass the review from the Office of the Commissioner before they can continue to work. Otherwise, it will be difficult to move forward in this land of southern Sichuan.
In a sense, this important system prevents the penetration of subversive forces to the greatest extent, plays a major role in promoting social stability and protecting the legitimate rights of the people, and is much better than the current rules and regulations of the Central Party Committee."
Gong Qian smiled slightly: "I thought about it. This is indeed a good and effective method. The central government has been trying to implement it but it is unable to do it. It seems that only you in southern Sichuan can do it."
"Not only southern Sichuan, but also western Hunan and western Guizhou are doing this. I believe that the whole of Yunnan will also do it by the middle of next year. Our four provinces and four regions will work closely together to help each other and we must make southwest China a firm and stable rear area. At least southern Sichuan
You have to be ahead." An Yi added.
Gong Qian sighed: "Seeing the vigorous development momentum in southern Sichuan and western Hunan, I am quite disappointed with the central government. A lot of energy is consumed by fighting for power and profit, so how can I take care of other affairs? At least within a year or two, I can't see it
What hope?"
"Sister, you should just quit your job at the Central Party Committee and be transferred to southern Sichuan to help my younger brother!" An Yi sincerely begged.
Gong Qian was slightly surprised, her heart was pounding, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment. Ye Qing frowned in displeasure and asked, "What about me? Why don't you invite me?"
"Sister Qing is such a talented person. It would be a dream to have her here! If Brother He Jing hadn't sent a support team to the "Sichuan South Daily", the newspaper it produced would not be as good as the third-rate tabloids on the streets of Nanjing and Shanghai. If Sister Qing had not
Your Majesty, the position of president of the newspaper belongs to Sister Qing, and my younger brother will also hire Qing.
My sister serves as the director of the Cultural Bureau of Southern Sichuan, leading and supervising the editing, publishing, printing and distribution of various publications. How about it? This position is not too small. It is the same level as the Director of the Taxation Bureau and the Education Bureau. The higher it is, the Chief Officer of the Public Office
Level, I can’t make the decision! Haha!" An Yi showed a bright smile.
Ye Qing was overjoyed, hugged Gong Qian and said loudly: "Sister Qian, you heard it all, you have to testify for me! I will resign when I get back, and I will live in the east building from now on!"
"What about me? Why don't I have a share?" Ye Zi stood up in excitement.
An Yi hesitated for a moment: "Zixin, you haven't graduated yet! Are you eighteen years old?"
"Nineteen! You look down on people and ignore you!" Ye Zixin turned around and left in an angry voice to avoid tears of grievance and disappointment.
Ye Qing shook his head helplessly, seeing that it was already getting late, he said goodbye and chased after him. Xiaojiu saw that An Yi and Gong Qian seemed to have something to say, so he stood up and went out to check the sentry.
An Yi stretched his waist, turned his head and whispered: "Sister, let's go for a walk? The moon is beautiful, let's come and enjoy the flowers on a moonlit night."
Gong Qian nodded and stood up, walking side by side with An Yi slowly toward the flower path on the west side. Her heart was beating fast. She seemed to have thousands of words to talk about, but she didn't know where to start.
