Chapter 515: Captain Li, Please Stay

Yang Sen, standing to the side, saw this smile from Yu Hua and grinned, saying: "What are you laughing at, kid?"

"I can tell just by looking at you that you're up to no good."

After Deng Xihou put a grilled sausage into his mouth, he looked at Yu Hua:

"Brother Yu, that sock you mentioned, what exactly is so different about it?"

"I haven't been to the factory to see it, but I have heard;"

"These socks of yours are deeply loved by the young ladies and young wives of Sichuan Province."

In the Sichuan Army, having a soldier who has graduated from high school is considered top-tier talent.

"This dish is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and this is Steamed River Field Chicken."

He wanted to have a meeting with Mr. Chen.

After the handshake was finished, Deng Xihou reached out his hand and said: "Mr. Chen, please, come in!"

This newspaper reported on the Wanjialing Campaign, with the Japanese Army protesting to the Chinese side and also to the international community, reporting on the ugly aspects of the Chinese military.

This time, the person escorting Chen Jiageng was still Yang Xiangchu.

Inside the train carriage, Yu Hua picked up a newspaper and began to read it.

The Sichuan Army asked for his help, and Chen Jiageng indicated he could help, adding that he would set off in three days.

"Since you are from Fujian Province, I went to find a chef from Fujian Province; this shows my sincere attitude!"

"As for those socks, what benefits they have, you can go find your own wives after you return to Sichuan Province."

Upon hearing this, Fan Shaozeng scratched his head: "Brother Yu, according to your meaning."

After Yu Hua spoke with Chen Jiageng, he indicated that he wanted to accompany Mr. Chen Jiageng to Nanyang, and then go to Europe and America.

In recent days, Mr. Chen Jiageng has indicated that he will stay in Hengshan for a period of time.

"You all know that you are not skilled at doing business; this time going abroad for trade, besides me."

"The little devils sure know how to play!"

Because, at present, the Sichuan Army has a very high prestige in the country; it is a mighty army of resistance that has repeatedly annihilated the effective strength of the Japanese Army.

Speaking of this, Deng Xihou smiled slightly: "Mr. Chen, at the time I intended, if I hadn't found a chef from Fujian Province."

"Our side is unable to manufacture them, and our side has never purchased Poison Gas Bombs from other countries."

Wei Dayong conveyed to Chen Jiageng the news that the Sichuan Army wanted to meet with him.

Chen Jiageng arrived at the small courtyard of the Sichuan Army!

"First of all, our Sichuan Army is inherently lacking in talent, especially people who understand English, Japanese, French, and German."

Yang Xiangchu and Yu Hua were assigned to the same train carriage!!

Afterwards, Deng Xihou also introduced his Adjutant, Yu Hua, to Chen Jiageng.

He looked at Yang Xiangchu: "Come, come, come... Old Yang, look at this ugly face of the Japanese Army."

Nowadays, at a glance, almost everyone is a Lieutenant General, which is truly too grand.

The generals all around were talking at once, and Yu Hua had not expected that his influence in the Sichuan Army had actually reached this point.

His gaze sharpened: "Look, brothers."

"Your Sichuan Army first went to the battlefield hospital, took photos of our soldiers who were poisoned by gas receiving treatment, and then cited some evaluations of our country's industry by Western countries."

He had to go to Changsha first, then transfer to Yunnan Province, and finally arrive in Myanmar.

"The shells our side captured, the artillerymen are illiterate and only know these are shells; since they are shells, they must be used, so we fired them at the Japanese Army."

Subsequently, Yu Hua had Wei Dayong go to inquire if Mr. Chen Jiageng had any time recently.

They don't even understand domestic business, let alone getting involved with foreigners to do international business.

Not only his marksmanship but also his skills are top-tier in the Guard Battalion.

"Since you have already decided, then I, your older brother, won't say anything more."

"I am going abroad this time... to secure more rights for our Sichuan Army."

Wang Qiang grinned and said: "Li Benzhong, what happened to Er Dan's head?"

"Today, I see that on this table, there are not only Fujian Province dishes but also quite a few Sichuan Province dishes!"

"Going overseas to do business, Brother Yu, that absolutely won't do; our Sichuan Army cannot do without you now."

"I have tasted some Sichuan Province dishes overseas; today, back in the country, I'll taste some authentic Sichuan Province dishes."

"The socks you mentioned just now, only women can wear them, right?"

"Everyone loves them and can't put them down."

Upon hearing this, Er Dan scratched his head, his two eyeballs rolling around.

This time Er Dan spoke very loudly, which also attracted the attention of Yu Hua and Wang Qiang.

"What kind of bullshit logic is that? They are allowed to use Poison Gas Bombs, but we aren't allowed to use Poison Gas Bombs."

"How come there is no follow-up to this matter?"

"Hmm?"

Chen Jiageng laughed: "Commander Deng, I am an easygoing person."

"Don't go to such trouble next time; I also want to taste the specialty dishes of Sichuan Province."

Er Dan nodded and quickly headed into the warehouse.

"The situation is definitely favorable to our side."

"However, looking at your head, it must have been caught in a door."

Chen Jiageng only thought for a moment before he agreed.

Yu Hua heard Wang Qiang call this man from the Police Department Li Benzhong;

Speaking of this, Yu Hua paused for a moment: "Secondly, is our Sichuan Army skilled at doing international business?"

"Mr. Chen!" Deng Xihou looked at Chen Jiageng: "As the saying goes, one must have the right attitude when asking someone to do something."

After reaching an agreement with Chen Jiageng, Yu Hua stayed at Hengshan, while the other generals of the Sichuan Army left Hengshan to return to their own units.

"Western countries actually believe us, because our country is famously poor."

"You will know the purpose of these socks then!"

Everyone was eager to return to Sichuan Province immediately to see what exactly these socks Yu Hua mentioned were.

This scale was larger than he had imagined!

Chen Jiageng thought that having an Army Commander from the Sichuan Army come to welcome him was already quite grand.

Subsequently, both parties entered the courtyard.

Yu Hua took Wei Dayong and arrived at the address given by Xiao Ningxin; there were guards patrolling at the entrance of the warehouse.

"Brother Yu, you intend to go overseas to do business!"

"I will have a cook from Sichuan Province make you a meal of our Sichuan Province cuisine."

Wei Dayong looked at Li Benzhong: "Brother, my young master is looking for your Boss; my young master's surname is Yu."

"How was it resolved afterward?"

These words from Yu Hua completely piqued everyone's interest.

"Afterward, the National Government also issued a statement."

In order to conduct business smoothly abroad, Yu Hua sent a telegram to his wife, Xiao Ningxin, asking the Xiao Family to transport a batch of socks to Changsha City.

At the entrance of the courtyard, Yu Hua, Deng Xihou, Yang Sen, and others all welcomed Chen Jiageng.

"The Japanese Army are shameless people, and their country is also a shameless country!"

"Sigh... what are you doing here?" Li Benzhong stepped forward: "This area is a restricted zone; you must leave immediately."

Hearing this, Yu Hua waved his hand: "No, no, no!"

Li Benzhong took a look and discovered that the person in front of him was dressed very luxuriously!

He did not want to offend others either, "Er Dan, go and tell Boss Wang."

Otherwise, in future wars, the Imperial Army would continuously fire Poison Gas Bombs at the Chinese army.

"Do we have anyone who is skilled at dealing with people from abroad?"

"Mr. Chen Jiageng is a famous merchant in Nanyang; this time going out, I intend to borrow Mr. Chen's influence in Nanyang."

The Japanese Army suffered a Poison Gas Bomb attack by the Chinese army in the Wanjialing area, causing heavy casualties to the 106th Division.

Yu Hua saw Deng Xihou, Sun Zhen, Fan Shaozeng, Yang Sen, Xian Guangjun, and others all lower their heads.

Regarding this, Yu Hua just gave a chuckle and did not explain further;

He only said one thing to everyone: "Gentlemen!"

Seeing this scene, Yu Hua smiled.

Hearing this, Deng Xihou patted Yu Hua on the shoulder: "Alright then!"

"Gentlemen, I must go on this trip overseas."

He touched his head to see if it had really been caught in a door, confirming whether there was a wound.

"Without you, our Sichuan Army has no clue about its future development."

Sun Zhen, Yang Sen, Fan Shaozeng, and Xian Guangjun also offered their blessings to Yu Hua, telling him to go and return early.

Staying at Hengshan with Yu Hua were also Wei Dayong and seven guards.

Sun Zhen looked at Yu Hua: "Brother Yu, you asked us to invite Mr. Chen Jiageng to dinner;"

After everyone was seated, Deng Xihou spoke first: "Mr. Chen, you are from Fujian Province."

Xiao Ningxin also sent the warehouse address to Yu Hua via telegram.

Yu Hua nodded: "Old Yang, what you said is correct."

"This evening, I shall certainly come to the appointment!"

Chen Jiageng hurriedly extended his hand to shake hands with the various generals of the Sichuan Army.

However, asking them to do business now—sorry, but Deng Xihou, Sun Zhen, and the others were truly not suited for it.

Soon, Er Dan returned, and coming with Er Dan was a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit.

"As everyone knows, the literacy rate of our soldiers is very low!"

"Once this article was published!"

"I am going to do a big business deal."

"How could we have used Poison Gas Bombs? There is no such thing. My National Government is a land of etiquette and never does such immoral things."

Li Benzhong hurriedly pulled Er Dan back: "Boss Wang, you know Er Dan's situation; I will take him away immediately."

In the center of the small courtyard was a large round table, and the table was filled with dishes.

Er Dan whispered in Li Benzhong's ear:

"Brother Benzhong, do you think the Chief's head was caught in a door?"

On the train, the two chatted idly.

Everyone ate while chatting.

"Is there such a talent?"

The use of Poison Gas Bombs violated international law, and the Imperial General Headquarters strongly warned the National Government not to use Poison Gas Bombs.

"What?!"

The arrival of Yu Hua and Wei Dayong immediately attracted the attention of the people at the Police Department.

"Who knows anything about Poison Gas Bombs!"

Besides this, there were also people from the Police Department here.

Here, Mr. Chen Jiageng had a few matters to attend to, so he rested for a while.

He was going to take a batch of goods abroad.

"Is our Sichuan Army planning to expand into Nanyang?"

Deng Xihou and the others, upon hearing these questions raised by Yu Hua, all lowered their heads one after another.

Wei Dayong honestly went to carry out Yu Hua's order; he found Mr. Chen Jiageng, who was staying at Hengshan.

"Commander Deng, please!" Chen Jiageng also reached out his hand.

"There really isn't anyone else!!"

Wang Qiang nodded: "Son-in-law, one thousand pairs of socks have been prepared in the warehouse."

"The goods are all prepared, right?"

"Brother Fan, you can wear the socks if you want, but I still suggest that men shouldn't wear them."

Seeing the Commander-in-Chief of the Sichuan Army, the Group Army Commander, the Chief of Staff, and the Army Commanders come to greet him, Chen Jiageng felt a bit apprehensive in his heart.

When boarding the train, Yang Xiangchu had already obtained the list from Chen Jiageng; on this return trip, a few more people had been added.

Yang Xiangchu intended to have a good talk with Yu Hua.

Hearing this, Chen Jiageng smiled slightly: "Commander-in-Chief Deng, you are very thoughtful."

Along the way, they arrived in Changsha without any danger.

Yang Xiangchu looked at Yu Hua: "Old Yu, you were really right."

Upon hearing this, Yu Hua couldn't help but nod: "This war of words was fought well!"

"Brother Sun, I plan to take a trip overseas in the coming period."

"Tell your Boss that my Young Master comes from the Yu Family in Sichuan Province, and your Boss will understand."

Within the ranks of the Sichuan Army, there were very few people who understood foreign languages, and even fewer who understood overseas business.

"I found a cook from Fujian Province at Hengshan and made some Fujian Province dishes."

"I feel that calling the Japanese Army shameless is not enough to describe them; they are just a bunch of animals."

"Pay attention to safety; even if the business cannot be done, you must ensure your own personal safety."

He looked Li Benzhong over carefully!

It took a long time for Er Dan to react, "Brother Benzhong, my head was not caught in a door."

"Our Sichuan Army is living quite well now!!"

"That's right, Brother Yu, even if it's for business, it doesn't necessarily have to be you who goes."

"Son-in-law!" Wang Qiang came before Yu Hua and called out respectfully: "I have not hosted you well, I ask for the Son-in-law's forgiveness."

The strength of the Sichuan Army was not the least bit inferior to the Central Army!

Chen Jiageng looked at Wei Dayong: "Captain Wei, please convey my words to the various generals of the Sichuan Army."

"Try these two dishes and see if they suit your appetite?"

These seven guards were all hand-picked by Sun Hui from the Guard Battalion, each one a top-tier soldier.

So many generals were opposing it one after another!!

Regarding the opposition of the crowd, Yu Hua remained unmoved; he looked at them.

He hoped Mr. Chen Jiageng would help Yu Hua find reliable people in Nanyang to provide some help.

Hearing this, Yu Hua waved his hand, indicating he didn't mind.

"This matter was solved by your Sichuan Army!" Yang Xiangchu looked at Yu Hua: "And it was solved very cleverly."

"Oh!?" Yu Hua's eyes narrowed: "How so?"

Li Benzhong looked at Er Dan and responded in a low voice: "The Chief's head is definitely not caught in a door."

Standing to the side, Er Dan was stunned when he heard Yu Hua and Wang Qiang talking about the warehouse being stocked with socks.

Yu Hua got off the train, took Wei Dayong, and came into Changsha city.

Indeed!

As for letting Deng Xihou and these people brandish weapons and lead troops into battle, they were very good at that.

"In these turbulent times, it's not easy to find a cook from Fujian Province."

Wei Dayong nodded and left; after returning to the Sichuan Army's small courtyard, he explained to Yu Hua that Chen Jiageng had agreed to come for dinner tonight.

"A statement was issued: our industrial construction is backward, the chemical industry is even more backward, and Poison Gas Bombs are high-precision, sophisticated technology."

Yang Xiangchu grinned: "I already knew about this."

"Even if there were any, it's because our artillerymen are illiterate and used the Poison Gas Bombs as artillery shells!"

"The countries I am going to this time are quite numerous; I am prepared to visit the major countries in Europe and America."

They only needed to lead the troops to charge forward; for them, fighting was a daily routine.

After Yu Hua finished speaking, the Sichuan Army generals exploded!

Night!

"We can send someone else; you must stay in the country to devise strategies for the development of our Sichuan Army."

Following Li Benzhong were also a few people from the Police Department.

"Whether one finds them or not, these are two different questions!"

"We are short of everything, but we are not short of people!"

"Arranging for over a hundred of our men to guard a warehouse storing socks."

"Can't we men wear those socks?"

Seeing the Yu-surnamed Young Master looking at him, Li Benzhong had no choice but to nod in response, then prepared to take the Police Department men and leave.

"Captain Li, please stay!"
