Because he thinks nothing is more important than this "viscous gasoline".
Opportunities don't wait for anyone. Mao Xiong's advisory group is in China, and the Eighth Route Army's intelligence officers are all over the world. If Mao Xiong hears the news and gets on the line, it will be a big deal for them to get there first.
So Sun Erwei did not dare to stay longer and prepared to return to Shanghai as soon as possible.
Before leaving, Sun Erwei made a casual request: "Wang, can I bring a bottle of 'viscous gasoline' to show them? That way I can convince them!"
Of course Wang Xuexin is not so easily fooled.
Sun Erwei's seemingly casual mention was actually deliberate. If he was asked to take a bottle back... it would not be difficult to analyze the ingredients and even proportions with Eagle Sauce's technology, and five million US dollars would be wasted.
The saying "The shopping mall is like a battlefield" is true. When you start trading, you will lose all your money if you are not careful.
"Don't think I'm a fool, Sun Erwei!" Wang Xuexin replied: "This is your problem. If you can't convince them, I can find someone more interested! I don't care!"
"No, no, I can do it!" Sun Erwei quickly replied: "Believe me! Wait for my good news!"
After saying that, he hurriedly took the translator and left on his shoulder bag.
The translator was a little strange. He glanced at Wang Xuexin and asked Sun Erwei: "Mr. Wilson, what's the problem? I remember this was a three-day interview!"
"No, no, there's no problem!" Sun Erwei replied: "I'm in a hurry, and I've got what I need, relax!"
Seeing Sun Erwei say this, the translator had nothing to say, but it could be seen that he was a little disappointed... This was somewhat different from his and even the headquarters' expectations.
As soon as Sun Erwei left, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang hurried back from the headquarters.
When Li Yunlong saw Wang Xuexin from a distance, he shouted loudly: "Little Northeast, why did the foreign devil leave?"
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang came after hearing the news from the sentry at the entrance of the village.
Li Yunlong is nothing. This guy has a character that protects his shortcomings since he was born. He is good at everything... If you want Shanxi Fenjiu for wine, the soldiers will treat their own independent regiment as a treasure, and other troops will stand aside first.
People, of course, only recognize Chinese people.
In his own words, "How can foreigners help you? They are not related to each other, so there is no good reason why they can help you. How can there be such a good thing!"
Li Yunlong's words are crude but not crude.
There is no need to talk about feelings, morals, or justice between countries. They only talk about interests, naked interests.
For example, doesn’t Yingjiang just sell resources from both ends and reap the benefits?
If it weren't for Yingjiang's oil support, with the Japanese's small reserves, all the planes, tanks, warships, and cars wouldn't be able to drive in three months. How could this war still be going on?
That's why Wang Xuexin made a deal with Sun Erwei instead of reasoning... Any reason is pale in the face of national interests.
But Zhao Gang didn't think so. He frowned and replied: "I'm telling you, Lao Li, we can't be careless about this! They are international friends, and we are now being blocked by the devils on the coastline. We can't say anything! The stubborn army
They are also smearing our Eighth Route Army internationally all day long. If we can publicize our deeds against the Japanese outside...then let everyone know the truth? This is a propaganda war, you don’t understand!"
"Okay, okay, let's do whatever you say!" Li Yunlong felt that what Zhao Gang said was reasonable. Anyway, he only stayed for three days and it didn't cost much money. Besides, the visitor was a guest, so he should be entertained.
Now, as soon as they heard that the foreign Japanese had done a good job in interviewing them, they suddenly left, but Zhao Gang was shocked.
Zhao Gang secretly thought, this little Northeast wouldn't have the same bad temper as Li Yunlong, which made the foreign devils angry!
So he came up and asked: "Comrade Wang Xuexin, did you say something that you shouldn't have said? What's going on?"
"I didn't say anything I shouldn't have said!" Wang Xuexin replied: "I just made a deal with him!"
"Deal?" Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang looked at each other. What kind of deal should they do with the reporter?
"I just sold the Molotov cocktail!" Wang Xuexin explained: "The foreign devils are in a hurry to go back and ask for instructions from their superiors!"
Li Yunlong made a "cut" sound: "Are you lying? How can people still like this thing?"
"Commander, don't tell me, I just like you!" Wang Xuexin replied.
"Yes!" Li Yunlong laughed with disbelief: "How much did you sell?"
"Five million!" Wang Xuexin replied.
Li Yunlong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "It's legal currency, are you kidding?"
Legal currency has been banned in the base area, and its function is to bribe the stubborn soldiers, which is somewhat useful.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xuexin corrected him: "Captain, it's not French currency, it's US dollars!"
"Dollars?!" Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang looked at Wang Xuexin in disbelief.
Li Yunlong had no idea about the U.S. dollar. He coughed and asked Zhao Gang cautiously: "Old Zhao, is this U.S. dollar valuable?"
"Of course...it's valuable!" Zhao Gang was so excited that he couldn't speak: "This...how do you say it? In the past, when the French currency did not depreciate, 100 French currency was worth 30 US dollars. Do you think it is worth it?"
Li Yunlong made a calculation in his mind: when the French currency did not depreciate, 100 French currency could buy two big bulls. Now that the legal currency has depreciated but the US dollar has not depreciated, that means that 30 US dollars can still buy two big bulls.
Then these five million US dollars can buy... Damn it! There are so many bosses and so many bosses!
Zhao Gang still couldn't believe it and asked: "Xiao Dongbei, is everything you said true? Will they really spend five million US dollars to buy our Molotov cocktail? This is not a joke!"
"Political Commissar, I'm not joking!" Wang Xuexin replied: "How about we catch up and ask? But since I set the price like this, it's not up to me to decide whether the business can be successful or not!"
Li Yunlong was already a little convinced at this time. He patted Wang Xuexin on the shoulder and said with a smile: "If the foreign devils are in such a hurry to go back, it means that they are probably interested in this thing. I think there is a chance in this matter! But even if it doesn't work out, there is hope.
It’s also a good thing!”
Zhao Gang nodded and agreed with Li Yunlong's words.
Five million US dollars, this is foreign exchange...
The foreign exchange at this time is different. The reason is that if China’s money is used to buy things in other countries, they will not be able to buy things if they don’t recognize it!
The U.S. dollar is different. You can buy whatever you want outside. Once you buy it, you can find a way to transport it in. If that doesn't work, you can also use U.S. dollars to buy a way to transport it... Doesn't this mean that you can break the blockade and import things?
Therefore, whether this matter succeeds or fails, it must be dealt with carefully.
What if it happens?
That would be of great help to the troops.
At this time, Wang Xuexin added: "By the way, political commissar! That foreign Japanese wants to bring back a Molotov cocktail, but I won't let him. Don't let him get it from other troops, otherwise they will make it all by themselves and there will be no need to buy it."
!”
Zhao Gang was startled and immediately said: "Quick, report to the headquarters immediately!"
