Zhou Qinglan and Sheng Xiping stayed in the provincial capital for a few days. After the meeting, Zhou Qinglan returned to Songjianghe, and Sheng Xiping drove straight to Bingcheng.

When choosing the location of the branch factory, Zhou Mingyuan and Sheng Xiping considered many factors and finally settled on the Tieli Forestry Bureau in Yichun.

The main reason is that it is not too far from Bingcheng and the transportation is more convenient than Heihe.

Heihe has already taken advantage of the border trade, and it is impossible for the superiors to give Heihe another good opportunity to invest in and build a factory.

On October 14th, the branch held a groundbreaking ceremony.

Many cadres from the province and Yichun locals came to support him. The forestry bureaus of Heilongjiang Province also arranged for people to come over. Wu Yucheng even rushed from Shencheng.

The groundbreaking ceremony was grand and solemn, and Sheng Xiping also took advantage of this to get closer to the leaders of various forestry bureaus.

For the construction of the branch factory, Sheng Xiping found the best engineering and construction company in Bingcheng.

Thanks to the Sino-Soviet trade, a large number of construction machinery has entered the country, and construction is now much faster than before.

Various machinery is on the construction site, working day and night, trying to erect the main body of the workshop before freezing.

At the branch factory, Sheng Xiping arranged for many veterans who had just been recruited this year, and also transferred brothers Yu Haibin and Yu Haiyang.

The Yu brothers are calm and conscientious in their work, and now they have experienced it, so Sheng Xiping has nothing to worry about.

So after laying the foundation, Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng returned to Ice City and tried to find a way to contact Alexander and Ivanov.

It was already the end of October, and the upper reaches of the Longjiang River began to freeze and seal the river, and ice flocculation also began to run in the middle and lower reaches. The river surface was not suitable for boating, so the Heihe River border trade was suspended.

The staff on the Heihe side take shifts and take vacations, go home to visit their relatives, and then return to Bingcheng or Manzhouli to continue working.

A few days later, there was a reply from Alexander, inviting Sheng Xiping and others to go to Chita for a small gathering.

So Sheng Xiping, Wu Yucheng and others completed the exit procedures, took a bus to Manzhouli, and then crossed the border to Zabaikalsk, a small town on the border.

Alexander and Ivanov arranged for people to wait in the town and sent Sheng Xiping and his party to Chita City.

"Sheng, Wu, long time no see, friends." When Alexander and the others saw Sheng Xiping and the others, they came forward to hug and say hello very enthusiastically.

"Long time no see, my friends." Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng also returned the warm embrace.

Alexander co-founded a trading company here and also purchased real estate.

A distinctive Russian-style building, beautifully decorated and with servants inside, it is clearly an aristocratic style.

Sheng Xiping and others were settled in the room upstairs. In the evening, Alexander held a small banquet to entertain guests from afar.

"Sheng, Wu, cheers to our friendship."

Since it is a banquet, food and wine are indispensable. Most men are good at drinking. How can we skip drinking on such an occasion?

Alexander and others raised their glasses again and again, finding various reasons to toast.

While everyone was drinking, they talked about the next direction of cooperation.

Sheng Xiping was entrusted by others to purchase another batch of machine tools, this time with more comprehensive models.

Alexander didn't even look at the purchase catalog. He waved his hand and agreed directly.

He only told Sheng Xiping to prepare goods and beautiful knives, especially the Coca-Cola, which he wanted to buy in large quantities this time.

Coke is of course no problem. Sheng Xiping has already made an arrangement with Guo Shouye to produce as much as he wants, and the storage will not delay things.

In this way, the two parties easily concluded a business deal, and then they celebrated with ease over a drink.

By the time the banquet was over, everyone was drunk. Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng supported each other and finally went upstairs to their room to rest.

Sheng Xiping and the others stayed in Chita for three days, and Alexander took them around.

Before leaving, Alexander stuffed a piece of paper into Sheng Xiping's pocket.

"Sheng, I think you may be interested in what is written here. If necessary, you can contact me and we can discuss everything."

Sheng Xiping knew as soon as he heard this that this guy had gotten something good again.

So he carefully put the piece of paper into his coat pocket, and then gave Alexander a hug. "We look forward to cooperation."

The first time he returned to the Manzhouli company office, Sheng Xiping quickly took out the paper and looked at it.

It was densely written in Russian and had serial numbers. Sheng Xiping couldn't understand it, so he threw it directly to the translator.

When the translator took a look at it, he was shocked.

"Mr. Sheng, what is written here is the model and price of the Su-27, as well as the MiG series fighter jets and T80 series main battle tanks."

"Holy shit, is Alexander crazy? Are you willing to sell anything?" Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng were shocked when they heard this.

You know, the Su-27 only entered service in . Can it be sold now?

"Yu Cheng, hurry up, call your uncle quickly, we can't make the decision on this matter."

Fighters and main battle tanks, how could Sheng Xiping dare to handle these things casually? We need to find someone from the military.

Wu Yucheng also understood the importance of the matter, so he quickly called the capital.

When Wu Bingzhong heard this, he almost jumped up with excitement, "I will report to the superiors right away. You guys wait over there."

Wu Bingzhong hung up the phone and immediately reported to his superiors. This time, he directly alerted the highest level.

The superiors held an emergency meeting to study all night, and finally decided to mobilize all available foreign exchange. No matter what the conditions, this batch of goods must be obtained.

Two days later, Wu Bingzhong, Mr. Yang, and a leader rushed to Manzhouli with about ten people and met Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng.

"Xiping, have you really found a toy for grandpa?" Mr. Yang asked Sheng Xiping with a smile as soon as they met.

"Grandpa, the toy you want is incredible. It's very expensive." Sheng Xiping touched his nose and said with a wry smile.

There was a quotation on the piece of paper. Sheng Xiping read it carefully and found that nothing was cheap.

This was after Alexander had given a considerable discount. Otherwise, just one Su-27 would cost a lot of money.

"You naughty kid, is this a question of dignity? This is a rare opportunity.

If it can be done this time, we will have military industry experts lead a team to study and improve it. Do you know how much it can improve the combat effectiveness of our army? "

Mr. Yang glared at Sheng Xiping, then smiled again.

There was no way, from the day he learned the news, the old man couldn't hold back his lips, and he was happy from morning till night.

Sheng Xiping was right when he thought about it, that is, in this turbulent period of Maozi, a few years ago, no matter how high or low you were, no one would care about you no matter how much you paid.

"Okay, here's the list. Leaders, please go and study it yourself. Once you've done your research, let me know and I'll contact them."

The matter was so important that Sheng Xiping didn't want to get involved too much.

At best, he is just a second-rate dealer, the kind who doesn't make a penny. If he mixes too much, he will easily lose money.

How could Mr. Yang and others ask Sheng Xiping to leave, so they sat him down and discussed together.

Everything on that list seems to be rare and everyone wants it all.
