Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 771 On the Boundless Sea Part [-]
With the gold in hand, the stone in Zhang Fawu's heart finally fell to the ground.

This matter has been very smooth since he met Qian Xiaobao in Shanghai.

"Thank you, Mr. Qian for supporting us!" Zhang Fawu said sincerely.

He stretched out his hand and held Qian Xiaobao's hand tightly, then pulled him to the back of several big rocks.

"With the consent of the leaders of the Jiaodong Army Division, this is the weapon we presented to you!" Zhang Fawu said, pointing to something on the ground.

Qian Xiaobao looked down and saw a crooked machine gun, four [-] rifles and boxes of bullets lying on the ground.

"Three thousand rounds of ammunition should be enough," Zhang Fawu said.

There are basically no opportunities to use pistols at sea, so they don't have pistols at all.

"Enough." Qian Xiaobao said.

There may be warships of the Republic of China Navy near the coast of China. It is impossible to confront the cannons on the warships with these weapons.It can only escape as quickly as possible by the speed of the whaling ship.

Such weapons barely exchanged fire with the small gunboats in the Republic of China Navy.

In the evening of dawn in winter, when the east was faintly showing a pale belly, the [-] tons of cotton were finally loaded.

Qian Xiaobao returned to the whaling ship in a small boat accompanied by Zhang Fawu.

The machine gun, four rifles and bullets were first sent to the boat, and Qian Xiaobao was finally dragged onto the boat by Da Shangang.

"Ten days later we will still be trading here!" Zhang Fawu said.

"See you in ten days!" Qian Xiaobao said with a wave.

The whaler weighed anchor and headed due east toward the peninsula.

Zhang Fawu stood on the small boat and watched the whaling ship go away. Several galleons carrying more than 100 people had already begun to evacuate. This time the task was successfully completed.

Zhang Fawu is now full of confidence in selling all the tens of millions of catties of lint that has been accumulated.

The whaling ship first sailed eastward for tens of nautical miles, then turned around and headed south, bypassing Jeju Island and heading east back to Japan.

The whaling ship loaded with [-] tons of cotton was slower than when it came, but it still quietly arrived at Osaka Port three nights later.

"The cotton should be sold immediately, and the money will be remitted to the account I designated." Qian Xiaobao instructed Second Lieutenant Abe who was waiting on the pier.

Four days later the whaler returned to sea, and six days later it returned to Osaka with a load of [-] tons of cotton.This transaction was carried out three times, and the whalers brought back a total of [-] tons of cotton.

However, during the last transaction, Qian Xiaobao told Zhang Fawu that there would be an interval of 20 days before re-transaction.

The only reason is that Qian Xiaobao has four gold bars totaling [-] kilograms, and now only [-] kilograms are not enough to complete a transaction.

The reason Qian Xiaobao gave was that he wanted to exchange the yen in his hands into gold as soon as possible. When the United States first occupied Japan in [-], one dollar was exchanged for fifteen yen, but now it has depreciated to one dollar for fifty yen. , and it seems that the yen will continue to depreciate.The longer the yen is kept in hand, the less cost-effective it becomes.

Zhang Fawu expressed his understanding that whoever has gold that can exchange tens of millions of catties of cotton can only continue trading by exchanging the money from selling cotton for gold.

After returning to Osaka, Qian Xiaobao said to Masayoshi Kawaguchi: "Overhaul the whaling ship immediately, we will set off in two days!"

This time he was going to go to Shanghai on a whaling ship to get back those gold bars and exchange them for cotton and then turn them into money in the bank.

In winter, the sea temperature is low and there are few typhoons. However, in February [-], a typhoon blew up in Shanghai.

Xiaolin Xun sat on the sofa, and Xiaohong covered her with a blanket because of the cold weather.

Xiao Linxun suddenly felt a severe stomachache. She gritted her teeth and endured it. After a while, the pain disappeared, and about 10 minutes later, the pain started again.

Kobayashi Kaoru had worked as a nurse for several years, and she knew that this meant that a child was about to be born.

"Hurry up, take me to the hospital!" Xiaolin Xun said to Xiaohong.

"So fast! Isn't there still a few days left?" Xiaohong said.

She had already made a lot of preparations for the birth of Kobayashi Xun's child, but she was still at a loss when things came to an end.

"I'll park the wheelbarrow at the door and pack up my things and take you to the hospital." Xiaohong said.

"Don't worry, there are still a few hours." Kobayashi Kaoru said.

Hearing what Kobayashi Xun said, Xiaohong felt a little relieved, and Xiaohong immediately asked her younger brother to pack things with her.

Kobayashi Kaoru sat on the sofa and waited quietly looking at the wall clock on the wall.

Xiaohong packed up some clothes and took the money and walked into the living room to help Xiaolin Xun to go outside.

Because there are steps at the gate, Kobayashi Kaoru can only get on the bus outside the gate.

Brother Zhao propped up the oil-paper umbrella and covered Kaoru Kobayashi's head, followed the two of them out of the room and across the yard.

Kaoru Kobayashi sat on the wheelbarrow with difficulty, and after locking the door, Xiaohong put a blanket on Kaoru Kobayashi and pushed the wheelbarrow up.

Brother Zhao held up an umbrella to cover Xun Xiaolin, and the three went straight to Guangci Hospital despite the wind and rain.

It didn't go very far, except for Xiaolin Xun, Xiaohong and Zhaodi were all soaked through.

"It's unlucky, don't pull the baby. You bastard!" Xiaohong scolded.

She was scolding those taxi drivers. Xiaohong asked a few passing taxis, and seeing Xiaolin Xun's big belly, no one was willing to pull it out. They all stepped on the gas pedal and ran away before they finished speaking.

"Bastard, you won't stay at home when your child is about to be born!" Xiaohong continued to curse.

Xiao Linxun sat on the unicycle and held the sides tightly with both hands. She was afraid that she would fall and it was also because of the pain.

The rain splashed on Xiaohong's body, she held the handle of the wheel tightly to keep the balance of the unicycle, and the few pedestrians walking on the street turned a blind eye to the three women who were braving the wind and rain.

"Persist a little longer, Masnan Road will be there soon." Xiaohong said.

After walking five or six miles in the heavy rain, Xiaohong finally pushed Xiaolin Xun into Guangci Hospital.

Seeing Kobayashi Kaoru's big belly, the nurse in the hospital immediately directed the three of them to the gynecology department.

When Xiao Lin Xun was finally lying on the hospital bed, Xiao Hong finally felt relieved.

Suddenly three sneezes sounded behind her.

When Xiaohong turned her head, she saw Zhaodi, who was holding an oil-paper umbrella, was shaking.

Along the way, in order to keep Kaoru Kobayashi from getting wet in the rain, his body was already drenched.

"Your bastard father will come in a few days, and we will scold him severely!" Xiaohong said while hugging Zhaodi.

But Zhaodi burst into tears. Since she was four or five years old, she only had Qian Xiaobao as her father, and she didn't know who her mother was.

Kobayashi Xun was lying on the hospital bed, clutching the quilt tightly and gritted his teeth without saying a word.The interval between pains became shorter and shorter, from seven to eight minutes to two to three minutes.

Five hours later, the loud cry of the child was finally heard in the delivery room.

The doctor and nurse came out and said, "Congratulations, it's a boy."

"It seems that the vinegar these days is not in vain." Xiaohong murmured.
