Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

At this time, Jinling, as the capital of Dragon Kingdom, is still quite prosperous.

Sun Tong felt depressed when he thought of the suffering that would be endured here in the future, but there were some things that he, an "outsider", could not interfere with, so when he met with Mr. Jiang, he only shared the intelligence that the intelligence personnel had collected in the Japanese homeland with him. As for what Mr. Jiang would do next, that was not something he could control.

After the trip to Nanjing, Sun Tong took a plane and went directly to Yanjing.

As the old capital of the previous dynasty, Yanjing is more prosperous than Jinling in some aspects.

The current mayor of Yanjing City is Sun Tong’s brother-in-law Bai Xiongqi. It’s funny to say that this guy has been busy for a long time, but he has never stepped out of the Yanjing circle.

"Brother, have you made plans for the future?"

As soon as they arrived at the Bai family, Bai Xiongqi pulled Sun Tong to drink. After three rounds of drinks, the two who had been chatting about trivial things for most of the day finally got back to the topic.

"What else can I do? I can only take things one step at a time. It's my fault for not listening to you. I'm lucky to be able to keep my position as mayor of Yanjing even though I chose the wrong side this time. I guess it's the end of the road now."

Sun Tong had already analyzed the situation of the Southern government with Bai Xiongqi. With his relationship with Mr. Jiang, as long as Bai Xiongqi listened to Mr. Jiang honestly, there would be no problems.

Everything was going well, but Bai Xiongqi insisted on making trouble. Do you think the old man can still keep a guy like him in the central government?

Now that he can be arranged to be the mayor of Yanjing, it is all because of Sun Tong's face.

But face is something that becomes less each time it is used. Once Sun Tong’s face is used up, it will be Bai Xiongqi’s turn to be in trouble.

"Brother, have you ever considered going to Southeast Asia with me?"

"Ah? What do you mean?"

"The country will not be peaceful in the future. It is not only dangerous for you to continue to stay in the country, but the key is that you are unlikely to be reused by the one in the south. In this case, you might as well withdraw as soon as possible. There are still some vacancies in the cabinet of my Xihua Kingdom. After you go there, I can arrange a good position for you based on your resume as the king."

The Wen family and the Bai family can't provide many talents for Sun Tong, but no matter what, Sun Tong will definitely use these two relatives.

Bai Xiongqi is the tallest among the short ones. He has been able to get to where he is today step by step. He must have the ability. Although this guy has all the problems of the old bureaucrats, Sun Tong believes that Bai Xiongqi is a smart man. After he arrives in Xihua and learns about the situation there, Bai Xiongqi will definitely take the initiative to change himself.

"this..."

The Chinese people in this era are actually quite contradictory. Even though the Dragon Country has suffered nearly a hundred years of bullying in modern times, which has made the Chinese feel inferior to foreigners in the bones, on the other hand, the concept of the Celestial Empire has also always been engraved in the bones of the Chinese.

Take Bai Xiong for example. He knew that as long as he followed Sun Tong to Xihua, Sun Tong would definitely not treat him unfairly.

But at the same time, he was reluctant to leave Dragon Country, even though he no longer had any future in the Southern Government.

"Brother, you'd better prepare as soon as possible. I will stay in Yanjing for a few days this time. If you have made up your mind, you can talk to me at any time!"

Sun Tong did not force Bai Xiongqi to give him an immediate answer. He also knew that this matter would require the other party to consider it for some time. After dinner, Bai Xiongqi returned to his bedroom with a heavy heart because he couldn't sleep again because of Sun Tong's words.

As for Sun Tong, after talking with Bai Xiongqi, he simply put the matter behind him.

He did not forget the main purpose of his visit to Yanjing this time, so early the next morning, he arranged for someone to get him an invitation to the Crescent Hotel.

It just so happens that the Crescent Hotel will hold an auction on the weekend, and Sun Tong can go there to see what is so special about the Crescent Hotel.

"Master, we have already done what you ordered. Our people have communicated with the people from the Shaanxi-Northern government, and they have begun to send people to our factories in the northwest region. At the same time, the equipment you prepared earlier has now been moved into the base!"

"What about the Northeast?"

"In reply to your question, the Japanese are gaining more and more control over the Northeast, so it is not easy for us to deliver supplies there. The people below have been busy for nearly half a year, and have only delivered half of the supplies. There is really no way to deliver the remaining half!"

When he said this, Lin Youcheng showed a helpless look on his face.

In order to support the anti-Japanese war in the Northeast, Sun Tong has never stopped supporting major anti-Japanese organizations in the Northeast over the years. Now the number of anti-Japanese people in the Northeast has reached more than 800,000.

Among these anti-Japanese organizations, except for a few larger forces that were able to confront the Japanese head-on, the rest could only cause trouble for the Japanese in secret.

In fact, the supplies that Sun Tong sent over in the early years were enough for these anti-Japanese organizations to consume for three to five years. However, these were only food and medicines. In terms of supplies and equipment, they were still quite scarce.

After all, there are as many as 800,000 people who need to be armed. Over the years, the equipment that Sun Tong has sent over there can equip 300,000 people, which is already a lot.

Now, there are still many supplies stored by Sun Tong on the grassland that can no longer be sent to the Northeast. Among them are not only more than 100,000 tons of food, but also 100,000 guns of various types, 18 million bullets, 1,000 artillery pieces of various types, and 600,000 artillery shells.

In addition, this batch of supplies also included a large amount of cotton and cloth. Compared with the first few items, the latter two are actually more important in the Northeast. It’s a pity that these things cannot be delivered to the Northeast at the moment.

I don’t know how long these anti-Japanese organizations can last given the foundation that Sun Tong has laid for them.

Of course, Sun Tong did not fail to prepare a way out for them. In fact, in the past few years, Sun Tong has built four secret passages for them that connect the grassland and the Northeast. The purpose of these passages is to ensure the anti-Japanese spark in the Northeast. In case the situation in the Northeast really reaches an irreversible point, the anti-Japanese organizations in the Northeast can completely leave the Northeast through these passages.
