The cold wind is biting, the snow is icy and snowy, and it is the winter of the second year again.

An Zhirong got what he wanted and took advantage of the opportunity of Fang Buwei holding a 100-day banquet for his eldest son to meet Chen Xinran.

Chen Xinran, who has become a mother, has less heroic spirit and sharpness, and has more grace and grandness.

It was unexpected that there was no way out.

Even after plucking up the courage for more than half a year, An Zhirong still couldn't say a quick word when he saw Chen Xinran.

It was not until Chen Xinran put his son Qi (Fang) Changzhi in An Zhirong's arms that An Zhirong recovered.

Fang Changzhi, the name of very plastic rice, was named by Fang Shiqi according to the genealogy.

The eldest son will not have a big banquet for guests and friends for a hundred days.

The entire Xu family restaurant was booked, with more than fifty tables placed.

There weren't so many people at first, but this year Situ Meitang was in advance of the fundraising conference for more than two months, so there were so many guests attending the banquet.

Because in a few days, Fang Buwei would go back to Nanyang and officially take over as the Lord of Sihai Tangshan. As elders, Situ Meitang and Huang Sande naturally would also participate.

Fang Buweiyi decided that after taking over, he would go back to China to renew his position after spending the New Year in Sin Chew.

A wine, from morning to dusk.

The guests attending the banquet were naturally taken care of by the disciples in the auditorium, so they did not sober up with Situ Meitang and Huang Sande on the second floor.

"I still feel that it is not a good time to return to China at this time!" Huang Sande advised Fang Buwei again.

In the past year, the domestic situation has been unpredictable, giving people the storm that the building is about to be filled with wind.

All classes and local warlords in China have gradually been unable to ignore the central government's continuous threats to Japan, and their surrender strategies have been retreating step by step, and they cannot stand the chairman's refusal to resist Japan, and they have gradually eroded local warlords, repeatedly provoking civil wars, and local incidents have frequently occurred.

In May, Mr. Hu Hanmin, a veteran of the Kuomintang, a representative of the rightist party, and one of the chairman's political enemies, passed away in Guangzhou.

The biggest backer of the Guangdong-Guangdong warlords fell, how could the chairman not see the opportunity?

When he sent a representative to mourn, he asked Chen Jitang to return the military and political rights of Guangzhou to the central government.

Chen Jitang decided to take the initiative and join forces with Gui army Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi to issue a telegram to establish the Southwest Alliance of Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, claiming that he wanted to lead his troops north to fight against Japan.

"We have to work hard to defeat the country for many years and strive for a glimmer of opportunity for survival for the nation."

This is the oath declared by General Chen Jitang at the Guangdong-Guangdong-Guangdong oath-taking meeting.

"Don't ask whether the Central Committee will fight against Japan or not, but the Fourth Army will be changed to "National Revolutionary Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army... Going north to fight against Japan is a national revolutionary war for survival, and it is by no means a fight for rights within."

This is General Li Zongren’s explanation and assurance to the Chairman and the Central Government.

At the same time, Taizu and General Zhu issued a declaration of support on behalf of the Red Army.

But unfortunately, the Chairman's strategy of "governing the country is like governing business" once again worked miraculously.

At the order of Chairman, Ma Chunfeng sent spies to Guangzhou to act and instigated Guangdong Air Force Commander Huang Guangrui with a reward of 20,000 yuan per aircraft.

Overnight, the planes from Guangzhou Military Airport flew cleanly and all defected to Nanjing.

In addition, the Chairman also bribed Yu Hanmou, the commander of the First Army, the strongest combat power among the Guangdong Army.

Guangdong Air Force Commander Huang Guangrui, Chief of Staff Chen Zhuolin, and Yu Hanmou, Commander of the First Army of the First Army, jointly issued a telegram against Chen Jitang.

Without abandoning a single bullet or a soldier, the Guangdong Army was dissolved on the spot by the chairman.

Seeing that the situation was over, Chen Jitang had to flee to Hong Kong by boat.

Afterwards, the Central Army was approaching and tried to unify Guangxi by force. After mediation by multiple parties, the Chairman agreed to reconcile with the Guangxi clique.

However, the domestic calls and directions for joint anti-Japanese war have not stopped.

In August, the CCP decided to give up its title of Red Army and called for a stop to the civil war and achieve the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.

The Chairman did not respond at all, and came to Xi'an to supervise the war, and his attitude was clear.

During the battle, the Chairman accidentally discovered that by mistake, the Northeast Army and the Red Army had been fighting counterfeit wars in the past six months, and the news of the Young Marshal's secret meeting with the top leaders of the Communist Party of China also reached his ears.

Later, the Secret Service found that many Communists actually held high positions in General Yang Hucheng's 17th Army?

This has now touched the Chairman's Ni Lin.

He began to plan how to remove the military power of the Young Marshal and General Yang Hucheng.

But the plan was not intimate and the news leaked out in advance.

Warlords from all over the country were watching the fire from the other side, hoping that the Northeast Army would be able to fight with the Central Army so that they could reap the benefits of the fisherman.

But no one expected that after the news of the removal of military power leaked, the Chairman dared to go to Xi'an and criticized Zhang Shaoshan in person...

Huang Sande and Situ Meitang didn't know the major event that would happen soon, and believed that there must be a battle between the Central Army and the Northeast Army. If we don't go back at this time, it would be like jumping in even though we knew there was a fire pit ahead.

Fang Buwei calculated the time.

It is mid-November now, and when he settles his family, he will be in early December.

The boats are slow in winter, and it will take at least forty days to wait until Nanyang.

At that time, the Chairman had already taken the Young Marshal back to Nanjing, and the Northeast Army would soon have internal conflicts.

By the time he had handled the matter in Nanyang, the curtain of the Xi'an Incident had already fallen by the end of February.

It was considered to have escaped this disaster.

I have to escape, otherwise Fang Buwei would be destined to be harmonious.

"Don't worry, two uncles. If the situation does not subside, I will definitely not return to China!" Fang Buwei said.

The two old gentlemen nodded.

They were afraid that Fang Buwei would get angry and ran back to join in the fun.

If Fang Buwei went back to fight the Japanese, they would support them with both hands and feet, but if they fought a civil war, they would firmly oppose it.

On December 2, Fang Buwei and his party embarked on the journey of returning home on the Mobil Company's "Queen" tanker.

Although the environment of the tanker is not as comfortable as that of the cruise ship, the advantage lies in safety.

The Queen can bear 5,000 tons of weight, including 2,000 tons of kerosene and 1,000 tons of gasoline.

Kerosene and gasoline are ordered by Sin Chew Foreign Company and will be specially shipped to Shanghai at that time.

The current Sin Chew Foreign Tour is a world of difference from a year ago.

Anliangtang and Zhigongtang each injected one million yuan, accounting for 15% of the shares.

In addition, Yu Erjun holds 15% of the shares and the remaining 55% of the shares belong to Fang Buwei.

In China, only Sin Chew Foreign Company is considered to be the business of Situ Meitang, Huang Sande and Yu Erjun, and the green light is given all the way.

Fang Buwei didn't expect that he originally wanted to smuggle, but in the end he became the official comprador.

The goods imported by Sin Chew Foreign Bank are sold by Sihai Commercial Bank and shipped to major cities. Even if they are just wholesale, their profits are also considerable.

Fang Buwei's assets were almost half over in one year.

The more than two million I earned will not be used to hoard military supplies.

The most are gasoline and grain, medicines and textiles, and the least are new-style ordnance.

It’s not that Fang Buwei doesn’t want to buy guns and cannons, but that the Americans don’t sell them to him.

Relations between China and Japan are becoming increasingly tense, and Japan has issued warnings to countries that it is not allowed to sell arms to the National Government.

It is just that Germany and the Soviet Union were too lazy to get away with the Japanese. The aid they should be helped and the ones they should be sold continue to sell.

Fang Buwei is trying to find a way to get involved in the relationship between the Ding brothers of German Merchants of the Foreign Business, to see if he can smuggle some of them from Germany.

That is, the owner of the Nanjing Fuchang Hotel, and the largest private arms dealer in the Republic of China period.

For this reason, he also sent a telegram to Zhao Shirui, allowing Zhao Shirui to reveal Ding Fucheng's tone in advance.
