The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

A moment later, Zhang Dezhong came to Dunn's office.

"The first batch of goods will arrive at the port in 2-3 days, and we will ship them to China as soon as possible. The first batch of goods will be about two ships of tung oil!"

Zhang Dezhong obviously knew what Dunn wanted to hear from him, so he reported it directly.

Now that there were no outsiders around, he just called Dunn by his full name instead of Mr. Du.

"So quickly?"

Tung oil is now basically only produced in China. Before the rise of chemical raw materials, this thing was basically irreplaceable.

It can also be sold at a good price if shipped to the United States.

"This is already very slow. Old Liu and Mr. Hua applied to them behind the scenes for a long time before they finally got the approval! You also know that the situation on the mainland is a bit complicated. They have just unified the country, and they are still checking the domestic assets!"

Zhang Dezhong explained the recent situation in detail.

"That's pretty good, but I want to correct one thing: the mainland hasn't really unified the country yet. At least before the isolated islands are incorporated, the mainland can't be said to be unified now!"

Dunn sighed and said that if he was asked what the most regrettable thing was before the time travel, it would be that he did not see the return of the lonely island.

"This……"

Dunn's words made Zhang Dezhong at a loss as to how to respond. You know, for the isolated island now, it is still nominally an ally of the United States.

Zhang Dezhong grew up in the United States. Although he was influenced by his parents since he was a child, he has a certain yearning for his motherland. However, it is a pity that given the current situation, it is basically impossible for him to return to China. Strictly speaking, Zhang Dezhong can also be regarded as a banana man.

Of course, the definition of banana man has not yet been proposed.

However, Zhang Dezhong received American education since childhood, was born and raised in the United States, so he can basically meet this requirement.

The only thing is that Chinese people as a whole are now a discriminated against lower class in the United States.

This made Zhang Dezhong feel endless resentment in his heart while he identified with the United States.

After Dunn brought him to Hong Kong this time, what kind of thoughts will Zhang Dezhong have in the future? Dunn is really waiting to see.

"This is the truth! Remember your current identity. You are not a beautiful Chinese. You must play your current identity well in Hong Kong. When you have nothing to do, communicate more with Mr. Liu!

Don't tell outsiders his identity. You need to understand the mainland's thinking and the current situation. There is a saying in China that goes, "Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles!"

If there are some urgent tasks in the future, I may ask you to go to the mainland!"

Dunn, this can be regarded as a way for Zhang Dezhong to have a comprehensive understanding of the mainland in advance.

Dunn was not really afraid that Zhang Dezhong's thoughts would turn red. To a certain extent, Dunn was actually happy to see such a scene.

"I understand!"

Zhang Dezhong nodded heavily.

Dunn only told him Liu Liyuan's real identity. Judging from his current contact with Liu Liyuan, he estimated that his secret identity had already been known to the mainland by the other party.

Even if Dunn sends him to the mainland in the future, it will definitely be an open matter. He will not be asked to do some dangerous tasks, because if he goes to the mainland with his identity, he will probably be noticed by the people there soon.

Therefore, he doesn't have to worry too much about having too many dangerous tasks fall on his shoulders.

"What supplies does the mainland need this time? And where is the transaction location?"

Since two ships of tung oil will arrive at the port in two or three days, according to the current situation, the United States should have some goods loaded on ships on the way.

"We have brought two ships of food this time! The trading location will be in Zhanjiang, and definitely not in Hong Kong! Otherwise, we won't be able to explain why the two ships are traveling together, and the British will probably seize it!"

Zhang Dezhong said somewhat helplessly that the transaction location must not be chosen in Hong Kong.

Even though trading in Hong Kong is the most convenient, the ownership of Hong Kong at that time does not belong to the United States or the mainland, so Zhang Dezhong can only choose another place to trade. This is also where he feels insecure.

"It doesn't matter. This is a long-term business. I believe the mainland won't be so short-sighted!"

Dunn saw what Zhang Dezhong was worried about and reminded him.

Zhang Dezhong nodded, opened the folder in his hand and handed it to Dunn.

"These are things that the mainland lacks. To be honest, we can get some of the daily necessities such as food and textiles more easily.

But in addition to that, they need some mechanical parts and mature production lines, which we currently do not have the ability to obtain!"

Dunn glanced at the contents of the document.

Now that the mainland has just been founded, basically everything is in short supply.

"We need to transport these contraband across the Pacific Ocean. The difficulties on the road are not small, but we really don't have the ability to get these things for the time being!"

As Zhang Dezhong spoke, he pointed to some banned items at the bottom of the list. These were items that the United States and its allies had banned from exporting to mainland China.

Basically they are some mechanical equipment and military parts, as well as some electronic parts.

The United States' embargo on these things is not only effective against mainland China, but is also effective against Warsaw Pact countries.

"It doesn't matter, just give these things to Victor and the others! Just explain it to them and tell them that we will definitely be able to get them in the future!"

Dunn was not in a hurry about these things, because the United States was about to enter a period of post-war economic boom.

By then, there will be factories with excess production capacity that will want to sell these things urgently, and they can get them with a little effort.

"Mr. Li also said that if we can get the contraband below, they can provide more valuable mineral resources. If it's just some daily necessities, then all we can get in exchange are tung oil, pig bristles and other less valuable goods!"

Zhang Dezhong is obviously more interested in the earlier mineral resources.

"These two items alone are enough for us to make money. These things are not valuable in the mainland, but if they are shipped out, they will be very profitable. We can do it step by step. We don't have that much capital. We can first accumulate some funds through the smuggling of these two items and exchange them for more valuable items in the future!"

Dunn is really not in a hurry.

"And don't just focus on the United States and Europe, can you also make contact?"

"You don't have to worry about that at all. I heard that Victor's father has already contacted the factory in Italy. They are more anxious to do big business than we are!"

Zhang Dezhong smiled and said.
