Rebirth of the Flying Era

Chu Cheng blinked his eyes, looking unlucky, and was really speechless.

Zhou Xiaoli did not suppress her blindly.

Seeing that it was almost done, he hugged Chu Cheng's arm again and whispered: "Okay~ It's just poker. Just play at home. Winning or losing only depends on a few packs of cigarettes. Don't dare to go outside to play!"

As he spoke, he rubbed it ambiguously.

Although it is not big in scale, it is also soft.

Chu Cheng immediately resurrected on the spot with full blood, and became more determined. He listened to his wife and followed him.

Du Fei stayed at Chu's house for lunch.

There is no big fish or meat. During the Chinese New Year, we pay attention to dumplings on the first day of the Lunar New Year and noodles on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

Director Wang and Sister Zhang worked together to make hand-made braised noodles and stir-fried two vegetables.

By the time Du Fei and the others came down, they were already done.

In fact, while they were playing poker upstairs, several groups of people from the Chu family came to pay New Year's greetings.

It's just that they all politely nodded and left. There was no one like Du Fei who never left once he came.

At the dinner table, because Chu Hongjun was not at home, the atmosphere was very relaxed.

Chu Ming looks rigid and solemn, but occasionally he has a lively and lively side.

Just now, Chu Cheng won two packs of cigarettes in the poker game. He was so happy that he even showed off to Xiao Huifang.

It wasn't until we sat down at the dining table that we returned to normal.

While eating noodles, he took the initiative to say to Du Fei: "Xiao Du, you told me last time that Chong'er was born outside and Shen Sheng died inside."

Du Fei said "hmm" and bit into a clove of garlic.

Chu Cheng muttered: "It's noon, you're not afraid of the bad smell."

Du Fei said confidently: "If you eat noodles without garlic, the taste will be half as bad!"

Chu Cheng blinked and silently peeled off a piece...

Chu Ming didn't take it seriously and continued: "There are three places now. I want to hear your opinions again."

Du Fei looked up at Chu Cheng in surprise, and then at Director Wang beside him, feeling a little embarrassed: "Brother Daming, I won't be so blind about such an important matter."

Before Chu Ming could speak, Director Wang said first: "Let's talk, it doesn't matter, we are all family members."

Seeing that Aunt Wang had spoken, Du Fei could only nod his head and asked, "Where are they?"

Chu Mingdao: "The first one is to go to Luoyang, Henan..."

When Du Fei heard this, he immediately shook his head without thinking and said: "The hinterland of the Central Plains is densely populated, has no inland water transportation, and has no resource advantages. It is difficult for industry to develop. If you don't go, it will be just a mess. It's better to stay in the capital."

Chu Ming was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Du Fei to be so decisive and reject it directly.

He originally wanted to tell all three places and let Du Fei compare them slowly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, a third of it was cut off.

Du Fei was busy sucking a big mouthful of noodles and said calmly: "Where is next?"

Chu Mingdao: "Sichuan and Chongqing."

At this time, Chongqing was not yet under separate jurisdiction.

Du Fei nodded and said: "This is not bad. The 'third line' construction was officially proposed two years ago, and the national investment is not small. Unfortunately, most of them are military and heavy industries, and the local government mainly cooperates with the work. Brother Daming, given your situation, you must be mentally prepared. Once you go there, you have to play a supporting role."

Chu Ming frowned slightly and pushed up his glasses slightly.

His ambition is not small. The next few years are the most critical time. How can he be willing to be a green leaf for others?

Chu Ming took a breath and said, "There is one last one, Dong Wan, Guangdong."

Du Fei was stunned for a moment.

This was the first time he heard about this big city that would become famous nationwide in later generations after traveling through time.

"Brother Daming~" Du Fei showed a weird smile: "Just over here!"

Chu Ming frowned.

Director Wang's eyes also flashed with surprise and scrutiny.

In fact, their family had already discussed this matter privately.

Everyone, including Chu Hongjun, felt that Chongqing was better.

Located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, with convenient waterway transportation and major policy support, it will definitely have great potential in the next few years.

Du Fei didn't deny these advantages just now, and they thought the heroes had the same views.

Unexpectedly, Du Fei immediately changed his mind when Chu Minggang mentioned Dong Wan.

Chu Ming immediately asked: "Is there more room for development in Dongguan than in Chongqing?"

Du Fei thought for a while: "Brother Daming, there is a word in "A Dream of Red Mansions" that I think is particularly good, called 'official economics'. Although it may have misinterpreted the original meaning of the book, I think the so-called 'official economy' is clear. In fact, it is 'economy', or it can be said that 'the economic base determines the superstructure'..."

As Du Fei spoke, he did not forget to pull a piece of noodles into his mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls, swallowed it and said: "In ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, in all dynasties, those who can do a good job in the economy are rare, and those who have poor official careers are rare. Furthermore, the prime minister, chief assistant, etc. , even if you take a step back, you can protect one side. Aunt Wang, Brother Daming, am I right to say this?"

Chu Ming nodded silently.

Du Fei continued: "Due to the tense relationship with the north, it is inevitable that our economic center of gravity will shift southward. Therefore, whether to go to South China or to the southwest, they seem to be equal, and choosing the southwest, as well as the dividends of third-line construction, seems to be better... "

After hearing Du Fei's analysis, Chu Ming nodded slightly, which was exactly what he thought.

Du Fei said: "But...Brother Daming, have you ever thought about it. From an overall perspective, the investment in the Southwest is actually a cover-up. It is to deal with the lowest probability and worst situation that may arise! Just like the Anti-Japanese War At that time, it was extreme defense. But now, I have atomic bombs and nuclear deterrence, so the possibility of that kind of situation is greatly reduced."

Chu Mingdao: "You mean...our investment in the southwest may become an expensive display like the French's Maginot Line of Defense?"

Du Fei thought for a while, shook his head cautiously and said: "I don't agree with this. In fact, I think the Maginot Line, in itself, is very successful."

Everyone present has heard of the famous Maginot Line.

Most people now view the Maginot Line as an important negative example of France's passive appeasement, which ultimately led to a humiliating surrender after only resisting for 43 days.

Unexpectedly, Du Fei reversed the verdict for the Maginot Line.

Du Feifei said: "What is the purpose of the French building the Maginot Line? Isn't it to prevent the German army from penetrating into the hinterland of France in the direction of Alsace and Lorraine at the junction of France and Germany! The Maginot Line has been completed very well. This goal? In the end, the German army did not break through the defense line from the front."

Du Fei calmed down and continued: "Our third line actually means the same thing. Its existence itself is the greatest significance. It shows the outside world that we are ready and warns the enemy not to take risks, otherwise we can fight again at any time. Fourteen years of resistance at a time!”

Before Du Fei finished speaking, a burst of applause suddenly came from outside the restaurant door.

Du Fei turned around and looked.

A thin, elegant middle-aged man wearing a Chinese tunic suit walked in with a smile. It was Chu Hongjun!

Du Fei immediately stood up and said with a naive smile: "Uncle Chu, you were not at home just now, so I just talked nonsense and made you laugh."
