I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

"Understood!" Zeng Liwei was very excited, and then gave Jiang Weiguo a crappy military salute.

Chapter 015 Going to Germany (5)

When leaving Mr. Chen's residence, Jiang Weiguo was full of joy, and he had a check for [-] US dollars in his pocket. This was Mr. Chen's donation to Jiang Weiguo in his own name, and this was just the beginning. The Southeast Asian overseas Chinese group headed by Mr. will become an overseas pocket of Jiang Weiguo, and they will continue to send money to Jiang Weiguo.

Of course, Jiang Weiguo certainly doesn't just know how to ask for it blindly, he will definitely repay Mr. Chen and other patriotic overseas Chinese.

"Damn it! My identity as the second son of Chiang Kai-shek is really not an empty title. I made $[-] by three times and five divisions! There will be more in the future! Tsk tsk, my father is Chiang Kai-shek, so it is really convenient to do things! "The more he thought about it, the brighter his eyebrows became.

"Brother Wei, why are you so happy?" Dai Anguo, Jin Dingguo, and Sun Tao who were waiting for Jiang Weiguo outside the door were all very curious, and Yang Mei stood beside him expressionlessly and said nothing.

Jiang Weiguo chuckled: "Secret! Let's go, go back to the pier! Besides..." He suddenly pulled his face down, "Don't call me 'Brother Wei' again!"

Early the next morning, the Duke of Prussia left Singapore and continued its journey westward through the Strait of Malacca and into the Indian Ocean.

Three days later, when the cargo ship was about to pass Ceylon Island (Sri Lanka Island), Jiang Weiguo received a telegram from Chiang Kai-shek on board. Chiang Kai-shek praised Jiang Weiguo in the telegram, because it was July 7, Guangdong Air Force Commander Huang Guangrui flew most of the Guangdong Air Force's aircraft out of Guangdong to Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, which was under the control of the Nationalist Government, and took refuge in the central government.

Suddenly, the situation in Guangdong and Guangxi turned around. The "collective defection" of the Guangdong Air Force not only greatly increased the strength of Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army Air Force, but also caused unprecedented blows to the Guangdong faction and the entire Guangdong and Guangxi. In addition to the blow to strength, there was also a blow to morale. .

Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help being overjoyed about this. He believed that Jiang Weiguo had made a great contribution to this matter, but in fact Jiang Weiguo did nothing.

"Send a telegram to my dad!" Jiang Weiguo smiled and told Sun Tao, "Let him send me 20!"

"What?" Sun Tao was taken aback, "20? So much?"

"A lot?" Jiang Weiguo said brazenly, "I let my dad get sixty or seventy planes worth tens of millions at once, and I also helped him severely damage the warlords of Guangdong and Guangxi. Isn't it just right and proper to ask him for hard work? Besides, Mr. Chen gave me [-] dollars right away!"

Sure enough, Chiang Kai-shek, who was in a good mood, let Jiang Weiguo beat him very readily, and remitted 20 French currency to Jiang Weiguo from Nanjing to the embassy in France. After Jiang Weiguo arrived in France, he could directly withdraw the money.

In addition to this incident, a relatively large incident occurred in the world at the same time. On July 7, the Spanish Civil War broke out.

The "20 yuan" that Chiang Kai-shek remitted to Chiang Weiguo was naturally "20 yuan in legal currency".

Based on 1936 before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the exchange rates of currencies of various countries were chaotic due to the serious turmoil in the international situation. Roughly speaking (still based on 1936): 10 French currency is equal to 3 US dollars (this is based on the "China-U.S. According to the exchange ratio stipulated in the Silver Agreement), 1 silver dollar is equal to 1 French currency (as stipulated by the national government, but the silver dollar is more stable than the legal currency, so it is more valuable).

At this time, the total issuance of legal currency in China is only 14 billion yuan, so the legal currency is relatively stable and relatively "valuable" at this time.

1 The value of legal currency is approximately equal to five or six hundred yuan in later generations, but the actual purchasing power is higher.

Historically, when Chairman Mao worked as a librarian at Peking University, his monthly salary was eight yuan (eight silver yuan/eight French currency), which was approximately equal to 5000 yuan in later generations (not too low, but the monthly salary of university professors at that time could be up to 10,000+RMB); it is worth mentioning that the value of the yen at this time is about half of the legal currency, and the salary of an ordinary Japanese soldier is less than 3000 yen a month, which is about 1936 yuan in later generations (During the Anti-Japanese War, although China Japan is weak and strong, but the military pay of the Central Army of the national army is much higher than that of the Japanese army); it is also worth mentioning that in 80, the gdp of China (excluding the occupied Northeast and Taiwan) was about 1000 billion U.S. dollars; the United States is about 1942 billion U.S. dollars (increased to 2000 billion U.S. dollars when it joined the war in 1945, and reached 3000 billion U.S. dollars when the war ended in 50); Japan is about 7 billion U.S. dollars; the Korean Peninsula is 2 million U.S. dollars; Taiwan 60 US$1945 billion in Northeast China (increased to more than US$140 billion in 560); Germany at its peak was about US$300 billion, Britain and France were both US$450 billion, and the Soviet Union’s GDP at the outbreak of the Soviet-German War was about $[-] billion.

In general, the comprehensive national strength of the world's major powers is as follows: the United States, Germany, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, France, Japan, Italy, and China. The United States, which ranks first, has an unrivaled and huge advantage, and the sum of the latter seven countries is not as good as the United States.

The 20 yuan of French currency that Chiang Kai-shek gave to Chiang Weiguo was equal to 6 U.S. dollars, and the price of weapons at this time was almost like this (for the convenience of description, the currency in this book when it involves foreign countries is in U.S. dollars, and when it is in China, it is in U.S. dollars. in legal currency):

The cost of each German bf-109 fighter jet is about 9 US dollars;

German U-boats cost about $250 million each (torpedoes cost about $3 each);

German Panther tanks cost about $20 each;

German Tiger tanks cost about $30 each;

The cost of each US Essex-class medium-sized aircraft carrier is about 7400 million U.S. dollars;

The cost of each American b-17 bomber is about 28 US dollars;

The cost of each American b-29 bomber is about 64 US dollars;

The Japanese "Yamato" battleship cost about 1 million US dollars.

Jiang Weiguo has 11 US dollars in his hand at this time. If it is used for eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and smoking, it can last for a while. If it is used for purchasing weapons and equipment, it can buy at most a fighter jet, not including ammunition, fuel, and parts. As the internet buzzword goes, "but it doesn't work".

Jiang Weiguo was very worried because he needed US dollars measured in "billion".

Six days later, the Duke of Prussia entered the Red Sea, crossed the Suez Canal, then entered the Mediterranean Sea, and finally arrived at the port of Marseilles in southwestern France two days later.

"We have arrived in Europe!" After landing, Jiang Baili seemed quite emotional.

"Today is July 7 (European time), and we still have five days left!" Shen Siliang looked at Cheng Jinguan, Liu Changchun and other athletes, "Everyone keep at it, we will take the train to Berlin right away, and we will definitely be in time for August 26 of the opening ceremony.

In addition, everyone should adjust their physical condition as soon as possible.

I know that everyone has been exhausted on the journey, which has had a great negative impact on the body, but you must recover quickly and adapt to the climate here in Europe, otherwise it will be difficult for you to perform at your usual best level in the Olympics!"

Cheng Jinguan, Liu Changchun and other athletes nodded firmly.

Jiang Weiguo looked at Cheng Jinguan and other athletes with sympathy and could not bear it. They really worked too hard. They sat on ships and trains for more than half a month without stopping. They couldn't rest well when they came to Europe. It is simply exhausting, and what supports their spirit is the lofty belief in winning glory for the country.

"You are here!" Several people were already waiting for Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Baili, and Shen Siliang and his party on the pier of Marseille Port. When they saw everyone get off the boat and disembark, those people immediately greeted them with smiles on their faces.

These people are members of the Nationalist Government's embassy in France. They have received a telegram notification. The leader is a handsome and elegant man in his fifties. This man is a famous figure in modern Chinese history. Gu Weijun, a famous diplomat known as "the first diplomat of the Republic of China" and the ambassador of the Republic of China to France at this time.

"Ambassador Gu, please greet us in person, we are really sorry and flattered!" Jiang Baili stepped forward to greet Gu Weijun with a smile and shook hands with each other.

"Where, where, it's a matter of duty!" Gu Weijun laughed, he didn't know Jiang Weiguo's true identity at this time, so he focused on Jiang Baili, Shen Siliang and others.

The two sides exchanged polite greetings, and then Gu Weijun led the way. They went to a nearby restaurant to have dinner and rest for the night, preparing to leave the next morning and take the train from Marseille to Berlin. The train tickets had already been bought by Gu Weijun and others.

Gu Weijun was the ambassador to France, and he was busy with official duties. He would not have stayed in Marseille for one night, but he had received a telegram from the Nationalist Government in advance, and he was hinted by Jiang Baili, so he also stayed in the hotel that night.

After dinner, Jiang Weiguo and Jiang Baili knocked on the door of Gu Weijun's room together.

"Ambassador Gu, this is Chairman Jiang's second son, Jiang Weiguo!" Jiang Baili introduced, "He has something to tell you!" Jiang Weiguo should have been entrusted with a secret mission by Chiang Kai-shek, so when Jiang Weiguo and Gu Weijun were discussing, it was naturally inconvenient for him to be present.

After closing the door, Gu Weijun looked at Jiang Weiguo in surprise: "You are the Second Young Master Jiang? Come on, please sit down!"

Jiang Weiguo smiled, sat on a chair, then took out a letter and handed it to Gu Weijun: "Mr. Gu, this is a letter from my father!"

"Oh?" Gu Weijun was even more surprised immediately. He took the letter, opened it, and read it. There were only a few words on it, and the meaning was very simple. In the letter, Chiang Kai-shek instructed (or commanded) Gu Weijun to cooperate (or Said to obey) Jiang Weiguo worked.

"I understand the chairman's meaning!" Gu Weijun looked at Jiang Weiguo solemnly, "I don't know if the second son can help me?" Shangfang Sword, I must obey Jiang Weiguo's dispatch and dispatch. In fact, Jiang Weiguo himself is a "walking Shangfang Great Sword".

"Mr. Gu, I need you to do three things for me, the sooner the better!" Jiang Weiguo also looked solemn, "First of all, I need you to help me contact the leaders of overseas Chinese organizations in Europe!"

Gu Weijun nodded: "It's not difficult!"

Jiang Weiguo continued: "Secondly, I need you to help me contact the leaders of the Jewish people!"

Gu Weijun nodded again: "This matter is not too difficult!"

Jiang Weiguo continued: "Thirdly, I need you to send two groups of people, all the way to England, to find a British scientist named Alexander Fleming at St. Mary's School of Medicine, University of London.

This guy is in biology and microbiology. He published a scientific paper several years ago about an antibacterial drug called 'penicillin', but it was not taken seriously by the scientific community.

After you find this person, you must take him out of the UK at all costs and persuade him to work for us in the future!" He said, taking out the check for US$[-] that Tan Kah Kee handed him in Singapore and handing it to Gu Weijun, "Give the money to You are here, and the [-] U.S. dollars my father sent to you to transfer to me will also be handed over to you. You can use this money to find and hire that Alexander Fleming.

If the $11 is not enough, then you can temporarily write him a bad check, and I will make up for it later.

Remember, this person is very important!"

Gu Weijun took the check with a puzzled face: "Is this person so important?"

Jiang Weiguo nodded: "This person's major scientific discoveries can save countless lives, and his discoveries can also become our cash cow!"

Gu Weijun nodded solemnly: "Okay! I understand! What about the other way?"

Jiang Weiguo said: "Go to Chicago, USA, and contact a man named Paul Galvin. This man runs a radio company called 'Galvin Manufacturing Company' in Chicago. Help me contact him and say that the Chinese government wants to contact him. The company cooperates!"

Gu Weijun nodded solemnly again: "Okay, I'll do it right away!"

Jiang Weiguo instructed: "Mr. Gu, this is a state secret, keep it secret, only my father, me, and you know about it!"

Gu Weijun's eyes showed surprise, and then he said solemnly: "I understand!"

After entrusting these three matters to Gu Weijun, Jiang Weiguo returned to his room, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

These three things are of great importance. Needless to say, the first thing is that Jiang Weiguo wants to turn overseas Chinese in Europe into his pockets. The second thing has two major effects. Jiang Weiguo wants to carry out mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation with the Jews. Cooperation, the Jews are rich and talented, but powerless and powerless, Jiang Weiguo needs the money and talents of the Jews, and the third thing is mainly to make money.

There are three drugs in medicine known as the "three classic drugs", namely penicillin, aspirin, and diazepam, because these three drugs are the most common in clinical application, the actual demand is the largest, and they are closest to the lives of ordinary people.

Aspirin is an antipyretic and analgesic with a long history. Diazepam is a drug with a wide range of effects. It can restrain anxiety, calm the mind and sleep, anti-epileptic, anti-convulsant, relieve inflammatory muscle spasms, treat panic and tension headaches, and It is used for anesthesia assistance, etc. As for penicillin, it is even more famous. This drug has an irreplaceable and inestimable effect on human beings. It can kill many common germs powerfully and efficiently.

Without penicillin, people are powerless against germs, because if people are infected with germs and do not have antibiotics, the germs in the body will reproduce in large numbers, causing inflammation and pus in the infected area, and the body continues to deteriorate. An example is tuberculosis. Without penicillin, people who get tuberculosis would surely die.

At this time, the British biologist named Alexander Fleming had discovered penicillin, but he had not yet found a way to manufacture and refine penicillin on a large scale, because his major discovery was not taken seriously by the scientific community and the British government , Until 1941 in history, penicillin really became an important drug for treating diseases and saving lives.

If Jiang Weiguo can grasp Alexander Fleming and penicillin in advance, it can not only improve China's medical level, save countless Chinese people and soldiers, but also turn penicillin into a super cash cow; penicillin can become a cash cow , the invention of Galvin Company can also become a cash cow, because Galvin Company is the famous Motorola company in the future. In 1940 in history, Galvin Company invented a portable military radiotelephone, which is a kind of The basic walkie-talkies are extremely useful on the battlefield, but they were not valued by the US military at the beginning.

If Jiang Weiguo could hold this portable military radiotelephone in his hands, it would be like penicillin, which would not only be of great benefit to China's war of resistance, but also bring a lot of wealth.

"It's so hard to have no money!" After lying on the bed, Jiang Weiguo murmured full of sorrow.

Section 016 Berlin (1)

On the afternoon of July 7, Jiang Weiguo and his party arrived in Berlin, the capital of Germany, by train.

As soon as he arrived in Berlin, Jiang Weiguo felt a thriving and thriving vitality.

Although Germany at this time has not fully recovered from the shadow of defeat in the last world war, the country has been reborn obviously. The depression and dilapidation are gone forever, replaced by ever-changing prosperity. Looking up, There are pictures of construction in full swing everywhere, and the sun of hope shines warmly on this piece of land at the center of the European cross.

On the streets of the city, pedestrians and vehicles are in order, tall buildings have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and the whole country is busy and positive.

The most striking thing is that there are a large number of Nazi party "Swastika" flags hanging on the buildings along the streets, black and red intersecting, showing a kind of iron-blooded edge.

Three and a half years ago, when the current head of state of Germany, Adolf Hitler, officially came to power, the unemployment rate in Germany was as high as 20%, and more than 600 million people were out of work. But now, the unemployment rate in Germany is almost zero, and Hitler solemnly promised " The promise of having bread and milk on the table of every household in Germany has been basically realized. Because of Hitler's leadership and guidance, Germany's national power is being revived, the German army is being rebuilt, the German economy is recovering, and Germany's international Status and national dignity are being revived, and the German people see hope and a future.

Even Jiang Weiguo, a foreigner, empathized with the fanatical admiration and heartfelt support of the German people for Hitler, because there is no reason for the German people not to love and support Hitler.

After the end of World War I, Germany was not only reduced from a world-class power to a third- and fourth-rate country due to its defeat, but was also forced to sign the "Treaty of Versailles" that severely damaged Germany's interests. Germany's national strength and international status plummeted. The German Army only allowed To keep 10 people, the navy is only allowed to keep a small scale, and the air force is even less allowed to exist.

There is no doubt that the national pride of the German people has been trampled on like never before. All Germans long for a strong leader in Germany to lead them back to their former dignity, glory and glory, and Hitler is such a person.

In the spring of last year, the German army officially began to expand its army. In March of this year, the German army re-entered the Rhineland.

Germany's Rhineland is equivalent to China's Shanghai. The Rhineland was originally a German territory, and Shanghai was originally a Chinese territory. However, the British and French powers did not allow Germany to station troops in the Rhineland, and Japan did not allow China to station troops in Shanghai. It is conceivable that How excited the German people were when the German army re-entered the Rhineland, because they really saw Hitler leading them to revival.

"In ancient and modern China and abroad, all kinds of dictators are like crucian carp crossing the river!" Jiang Weiguo thought to himself, "Some dictators have no real skills, but rely on lies to deceive the people, and use brainwashing methods to disguise themselves as the gods in the hearts of the people. ’, and although Hitler was also a dictator, he had real abilities, and he succeeded in winning the heartfelt love of the German people for him by relying on his great contributions of real materials and remarkable achievements for all to see!”

The staff of the embassy headed by Cheng Tianfang, the ambassador of the Nationalist Government to Germany, came to welcome Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Baili, and Shen Siliang.

After they met each other, they exchanged polite greetings, and then they lived in the embassy together under the arrangement of Cheng Tianfang. Such an arrangement was also helpless because of lack of funds.

Although Jiang Weiguo provided [-] U.S. dollars in sponsorship funds to the sports delegation, the members of the delegation decided to save as much as possible and never waste money.
