Chapter 115 The Cigarette Factory

Chen Geng and Wei Dayong looked at Li Yunlong's distant figure, but felt differently in their hearts.

In Chen Geng's view, Li Yunlong really got a big deal this time. If he hadn't believed in Wei Dayong's eloquence, he would never have agreed to his unreasonable conditions!

On the other hand, Wei Dayong frowned, as if he had a vague premonition...

"Comrade Dayong, you will stay at the brigade headquarters for one night today. After I finish dealing with the matter at hand, I will take you to the Huangyadong Armory tomorrow in person!"

Wei Dayong nodded and followed Chen Geng into the house.

Indeed, it was better to go with the brigade commander than with an orderly.

It's not because the difference in positions between the two made Wei Dayong have any ideas, but after arriving at the arsenal, the level of reception for them will naturally be different.

If we can establish contact with the high-level comrades of the Ministry of Military Industry as soon as possible, then the next research and development work will naturally be much smoother!
On the other hand, Li Yunlong returned to the independent regiment, and quickly added equipment to Shufen and Jia Fugui's team, and issued uniform military uniforms to them.

"Captain Li is really powerful. In just a few days, he managed to conjure up so many brand-new military uniforms!"

Although Jia Fugui joined the revolutionary ranks, he still couldn't get rid of his flattering habit of working under the hands of the Japanese.

But Li Yunlong naturally likes to listen to good things.

"I said Company Commander Jia, is it because you are dissatisfied with the establishment of a strengthened company for so many brothers..."

Li Yunlong lit a cigarette and looked at Jia Fugui standing beside him respectfully.

When Jia Fugui heard this, he was so frightened that he bowed again and again.

"What are you talking about, Commander Li! If you can take our brothers in regardless of the past, I, Mr. Jia, and my brothers will naturally be grateful to you!"
How dare you show any disrespect to you because of your official position! "

"Hey, I'm teasing you kid!
Your kid speaks well, I like it!But there is one thing, you are already a member of the Lao Tzu's independent group, why are you still talking about 'Liu Zhang' all day long?

Could it be that he was thinking, if he jumped out of our old Li's small temple, would he be able to do it alone in the future? "

After hearing this, Jia Fugui was relieved. Seeing Li Yunlong smoked a cigarette in two or three puffs, he quickly took another cigarette out of his pocket and handed it to the head of the group.

"I said you can do it, you kid. After being a puppet army for so many years, the wool of this little Japanese must have been almost squeezed by you kid!"

Li Yunlong carefully looked at the cigarette Jia Fugui handed over. Although there was no printing on it, judging from the craftsmanship of the cigarette and the taste of the shredded tobacco, it was definitely not ordinary!

Jia Fugui scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Commander Li, you don't know something!"

"Huh?" Seeing that he still didn't change his words, Li Yunlong glared at him with eyes the size of cow eggs!
"Ah... Head, head, you don't know something, these things are not obtained from the hands of little devils!"

When Li Yunlong heard this, he was a little curious, but he became angry in an instant!
"Why, you didn't get it from a little devil, could it be that you got it from our common people?"

"Of course it's even more impossible. Didn't I tell Captain Shufen that although Jia Fugui carried guns for the little devils, we didn't do anything to bully our Chinese people!"

Jia Fugui was busy explaining, but after explaining for a long time, the expression on Li Yunlong's face showed no sign of relaxing!

"You boy, pick up the key points for me!"

Jia Fugui kept defending himself, but never mentioned the real origin of the cigarette.

To put it bluntly, what Li Yunlong really wants to figure out now is how to get these cigarettes!
Only after learning Li Yunlong's true intentions did Jia Fugui tell the story of the cigarettes...

"This batch of cigarettes, I actually got them from the public concession in Shanghai!

I have a distant relative who runs a cigarette factory in Shanghai. The Japanese are about to attack Shanghai right in front of them, and they want to rely on my relationship to help the Japanese! "

"Oh? So, you kid is equivalent to detaining the little devil's things? Go on!"

Jia Fugui nodded embarrassingly, "The reason why these cigarettes are not printed is because my relative was afraid of being discovered by the British in the concession, so they didn't print them on purpose!

Don't underestimate this unbranded cigarette, most of the cigarettes on the market are not as good as him! "

Li Yunlong smacked his lips, feeling really different.

"You have quite a lot of magical powers. I think this cigarette is good. Do you have any ideas to get me some more?"

A troubled look appeared on Jia Fugui's face.

Originally, he had such a relationship with the Japanese that he would have a steady supply of cigarettes.

But after he joined the independent group, he had already sent a telegram to his relatives in Shanghai.

Although distant relatives praised him in his reply for turning from darkness to light, they also made it clear that they would never send him cigarettes again...

So if Li Yunlong wants to smoke this, he has to spend real money to buy it!

Jia Fugui had no choice but to tell the truth.

Li Yunlong was silent for a moment. Although the Independent Regiment was a relatively wealthy branch of the Eighth Route Army, this was only in terms of supplies and equipment.

If you really want to talk about the funds, Li Yunlong's pockets are also empty!
"Forget it, if you don't smoke, don't smoke. If I want to buy a pack of cigarettes, why go to Shanghai? As long as there are cigarettes, where can't I buy them?"

Li Yunlong seemed quite indifferent on his lips, but he was constantly sad in his heart.

But at this time, Jia Fugui wanted to add fuel to the fire, "Commander, you don't know, this cigarette can only be bought in Shanghai!

After all, the machines in their factory are said to have been imported from Europe at a high price. Of course, our cigarette factory does not have such conditions! "

After listening to the first half of the sentence, Li Yunlong became very angry.

But when he heard the second half of the sentence, a smile appeared on his face again!
“If there are no conditions, we will create conditions!
Didn't our Eighth Route Army come here all the time? I'll contact you with your distant relatives tomorrow to see if I can get a machine for me too!

How much does it cost, I will give it to you! "

Although he doesn't have any money now, as long as Li Yunlong is willing, the little devil's place will be his cash machine at any time!

Moreover, if he can really get such a technologically advanced imported device, he can earn a lot of money just as a side job in the future!
Jia Fugui took down Li Yunlong's request and said he would do it as soon as possible.

Li Yunlong was overjoyed, but what he didn't expect was that this purchase would end in an unexpected ending!
