The journey starts from the Titanic

Situ Nan smiled.If you have the opportunity to meet Hu Hanmin, one of the four major calligraphers of the Republic of China, naturally you will not miss this opportunity to satisfy the collector's addiction.

Chapter 63

"Sufficient logistical support is the basis of victory, and you have a lot of courage."

Situ Nan encouraged Lin Yimin. Like Song Ziwen, this young entrepreneur has completed the transition to government affairs. Since taking charge of the financial power of the Guangzhou government, he has performed very well and raised enough military expenditure to effectively ensure the smooth progress of the war ahead.

"I may be the happiest treasurer in the country. Who told me to pay a super big money."

Lin Yimin smiled and took over the signed document from Situ Nan.Situ Nan once again provided an interest-free loan of US$30 million to the Guangzhou government through American China Bank.

This is not the first, nor the last, nor the largest, but Situ Nan, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the Northern Expedition, will help the Guangzhou government to take back the customs of the southern provinces from the British.

The Revolution of 1911 was abandoned halfway, Sun Yat-sen had to give way to Yuan Shikai. The most important reason was that he had no money!

The customs was held in the hands of foreigners and could not get the money. The Southern Revolutionary Government could not meet the cost of the military operations even with great enthusiasm.

The young master is indeed a young master, and he is generous. With this amount of money, it is enough to maintain government expenditures and fight the army for a long time.You know, the Guangzhou government now controls the six provinces of Guangdong, Guangdong, Yunnan, Hunan, Hubei, and Jiangxi. The cost of maintaining the effective operation of the government alone is an astronomical figure.

In military operations, spending money is more like running water, devouring huge amounts of supplies crazily. No wonder there is a saying that "there is a big gun, and gold is ten thousand taels."

"The young master has had a good harvest in the past two years, and the business has been prosperous. This amount of money is less than a fraction of the oil company?

Lin Yimin got a bargain and behaved, and carefully put the documents in his bag.

"You said it is light?" Situ Nan snorted and said seriously, "The money has been given to you, and the previous war should be no problem. Give you half a year, and you must take back the customs from the British. At the same time, establish The effective and fast government team will clean up everything and create a good environment for the next industrial construction."

"Don't worry! I've been waiting for this day for a long time, and I won't let you down."

Lin Yimin issued a military order and looked more serious than ever.

As he said, for the upcoming day, he gave up overseas development and worked hard to manage the investment of Meihua Company in China.The great blueprint has already been planned, and we are waiting to show our fists.

I hope you don't let me down!

Seeing Lin Yimin's back, Situ Nan secretly said that only Lin Yimin understood Situ Nan's thoughts best. Situ Nan was relieved when he looked at the government.

Grasping money in one hand and gun in the other. What can't you worry about?

In general, Situ Nan is still a person with a strong desire for power. Because of the heavy historical memory, he is particularly worried about the situation in China, and he sees it tightly, and there is no room for mistakes.

...

"Honey, look at my dress, can you?"

Song Meiling's beautiful figure circled in front of Situ Nan. The dark green and elegant cheongsam couldn't cover her style at all, like a rose that bloomed at the beginning, mature and charming, slightly green.

Only in the residence of Situ, she showed a moisturized femininity, and she was outside, but she was a strong woman who was vigorous and resolute.

Situ Nan smiled slightly and praised: "Very good, it matches your temperament." Xin said, women, this kind of animal is like a flower, from eight to eighty years old, they need praise to moisturize them.

"Thank you. But you also commented on the last one."

Song Meiling whitened Situ Nan, not willing to change this dark green cheongsam, put on a mink coat, and board the boat to Shanghai.

Of course, there is also Situ Nan.

When passing through the Taiwan Strait, I met a naval patrol ship. The flag looked a little shabby, and the hull was very old, and there was an indescribable twilight.

Surprisingly, there are a lot of cargo stacked on the deck of the ship, which looks like it is being shipped.The people on the same ship confirmed this, and Situ Nan realized that it turned out that China still has a navy service, which is precisely the Beiyang Navy.

"The Mawei naval battle, the Mawei fleet was gone. The Chinese navy was gone in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894."

Situ Nan laughed at himself, turned and looked in the direction of Taiwan, secretly angry.

"The ship should belong to the Fujian Navy. The military budget is insufficient. It is also helpless to use it occasionally to do some sideline. However, the Fujian Navy has always been stubborn and other people can't stand. In human hands."

Song Meiling said calmly.

Speaking of it, the Guangdong fleet is not bad. A few destroyers were supplemented from South China. They were captured by the South China Defense Forces from the Netherlands and later transferred to the Guangzhou government.

In addition, the Guangdong fleet still has three old submarines, and the government has begun to increase the construction of the Naval Academy of Whampoa Military Academy. The government will increase support for the shipbuilding industry in the future, and the future of the navy should be clear.

Compared with the declining Fujian Navy, it is prospering, but the Guangzhou government does not intend to let this rare navy seed participate in the civil war. The most used one is to travel to and from the South China Sea to take on the escort mission between Guangdong, Guangxi and South China.

"You mean, we can get the Fujian Navy soon?" Situ Nan looked at Song Meiling in surprise, somewhat surprised.

"Of course." Song Meiling nodded, her face believing.

"Wuhan, we have established a dominant position in the south. We are only behind Qi Xieyuan of Jiangsu and Sun Chuanfang of Zhejiang. These two are not amazing talents. Are they better than Wu Peifu? So the Fujian Navy wants to rely on us very much. Naturally, otherwise, when we take Fujian, they won’t do it or they will have to."

"Looking at what you said is right, it's not bad! The analysis is well done, just let you be the Minister of the Navy." Situ Nan smiled, secretly surprised at Song Meiling's political maturity.

"I'm thinking, but how can a woman be the Minister of the Navy?" Song Meiling was very happy to hear that, but did not take Situ Nan's words seriously.

Looking back at the warship that had disappeared from the sea, Situ Nan discovered that a larger warship was approaching in front of him. The arrogant sun flag was indescribably dazzling, and he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.

"Damn, damn disgusting! In the future, our navy will send it to the bottom of the sea when we see a ship flying the plaster flag!"

Situ Nan whispered, spat out, and spit out his depression into the sea.

This scene fell into Song Meiling's eyes, and she did not expect that this elegant and indifferent Situ Nan would also have such a radical side.Even the radical youths on the streets of Guangzhou didn't dare to say that they would send the Japanese ship to the bottom of the sea?Situ Nan said it was so domineering, as if he could really do it.

Song Meiling seemed to have something touched in her heart, and she was standing with Situ Nan forever.

She smiled softly and shook Situ Nan's hand to show encouragement.

"Why? Don't believe it!?" Situ Nan felt warm and half jokingly said, "Your husband, I do what I say! I am a giant in the shipbuilding industry, and the US Navy cannot do without Lao Tzu's shipyard.

Most of the shipyards currently under construction in South China are related to me. I have taken Bethlehem in the United States and Krupp in Germany to South China to build ships.It will not be long before the domestic shipbuilding industry will usher in a boom."

"By the way, the world's largest aircraft manufacturing company is also mine. Have you ever heard of using airplanes to fight warships? Throw bombs or fish from your head, and even strong warships will sink. Haha!"

Situ Nan flaunted, there was a fire in his heart, and he seemed to be uncomfortable without venting.

The facts he said, but in Song Meiling's eyes, it was too bragging.Situ Nan made his fortune by oil. She knew that there are countless money and there are indeed many assets under her. It can be described as a rich and enemy country, but it shouldn't be almost the world's first as he said, right?

As a mature woman, she certainly would not expose Situ Nan in person.Men, in front of the beloved woman, always have to do something.

Originally, Situ Nan wanted to break the news again. Looking down at Song Meiling's expression, she probably understood her thoughts, so she had to stop talking.In fact, even the original secretary Lin Yimin did not fully know about Situ Nan.

Who would believe that Situ Nan had built a business empire like Mellon and Rockefeller in just over ten years?If it weren't for something in my heart, I wouldn't have traveled far and wide to return to the motherland!

The encounter with Japanese warships at sea reminded Situ Nan. Seeing the Guangzhou government unifies the south, the Japanese should not be able to sit still, and they will definitely jump out and attack.The best place should be Shanghai.

"The situation in Shanghai is not very good. Factories often go on strike, especially foreign factories. If we are provoked by someone who wants to, we can easily have embarrassing things with the British or the United States, and we have no plans to completely fall out with them.

After all, this is a revolution, and the British exploit us the most. They have always been arrogant..."
