Jilin Province, Changchun Railway Station. Wu Haoxuan's guards entered the railway station and were on guard from the exit to the platform. The appearance of the Jilin Army made the little devils of the 2nd Squadron of the 1st Brigade of the Japanese Railway Garrison Brigade who were in charge of garrisoning here feel like a big enemy.

In particular, the squad leader, Jiro Ono, ordered the entire squadron to enter the highest state of combat readiness. If the Chinese dared to attack the train station, they would immediately return fire. Although Onodera Jiro knew that if the two sides really exchanged fire, the more than 200 people in his squadron would not be able to confront the Jilin Army at all. After all, the instructors of the Jilin Army are stationed in Changchun, and there are more than 18,000 people, which is no less than a standing division of the Japanese Army.

However, Wu Haoxuan came to Changchun Railway Station this time, and he really didn't come to find trouble. Since the end of the last conflict, Jilin and the Japanese have been regarded as well water and river water. Even the Manchurian Railway did not deliberately make it difficult for the various materials transported by Jilin. The Japanese don't seem to want to tear their faces with Jilin at this juncture. After all, Japan is still recovering from the wounds of the war.

Of course, Wu Haoxuan knew that this was just a delaying tactic for little Japan. Between Jilin and Japan, there will inevitably be a war. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gathered so much to expand his army. At present, the Jilin Army has been expanded to 12 infantry divisions. It's just that because of the secrecy of the number, the outside world doesn't know how many troops the Jilin Army really has. After the expansion, the Jilin Army has already begun intense training, and as long as it lasts for these two months, it will be able to go to the battlefield.

Unifying the entire Northeast before the Japanese were ready was Jilin's only chance. Otherwise, wait another two or three years for the Japanese to recover. If the strength of the Russians in the Far East is also restored, it will be impossible for Jilin to unify the Northeast.

Wu Haoxuan planned to march to Mukden and Rehe starting in October. Defeat Zhang Yuting and Feng Linge in one fell swoop, and bring Fengtian Province and Rehe into their control. After the unification of the entire Northeast, it initially had the strength to compete with the Japanese.

Wu Haoxuan came to Changchun Railway Station today to greet two friends. Two of his important partners in the United States, the sons of the DuPont family and the Rockefeller family, will arrive in Jilin today. They will discuss the next steps of cooperation. Davis, the general manager of the Westward Group, will also be with him. The West China Group has once again discovered a super-large oil field south of Tampico in Mexico. Therefore, this means that Wu Haoxuan once again got a chance to make a fortune. In addition, Wu Haoxuan also wanted to talk to his friends about whether the United States could support Jilin.

Relying solely on the strength of Jilin and even Northeast China, it is really a bit inadequate. In particular, there are still great constraints on industrial development. Technology, capital, talents, etc., are very lacking. If we can get the help of the United States, this process will undoubtedly be much faster. After all, the United States is now the world's largest economic power. Although the military strength of the United States is relatively rubbish, it is precisely this that Wu Haoxuan values. With the help of the industrial and economic development of the United States in the Northeast, and in addition to avoiding the United States' military interference in the Northeast and even in China, we can ensure the leadership of China in the future.

The DuPont family and the Rockefeller family are both superfamilies in the United States, and if they can get their recognition and support, then Wu Haoxuan's plan has a great chance of success. If successful, it could save him at least a decade or more. It's 1906 now, and in 8 years the world war will begin. Without a strong industry, it is impossible to get a piece of the pie in the world war, and it is only possible to watch the Americans make a lot of money. If the industrial system can be established before the world war, it will undoubtedly be able to take off with the help of the world war. At that time, there will be no power in the entire Far East that can compete with China. Including Little Japan.

"Whew!" The whistle of the train sounded, and Wu Haoxuan was awakened from his contemplation. After cleaning up his mood, a smile appeared on Wu Haoxuan's face. Despite the difficult future, he will do his best to succeed.

The train stopped on the platform, the carriages opened, and countless people poured out of the train. Although, the railroad has been restored to traffic. But the capacity was far from being able to meet the requirements, which made every train strictly overcrowded.

However, when many ordinary people got off the train and saw the soldiers with loaded guns on the platform, they couldn't help but jump and left the train station one after another, so as not to be affected.

Wu Haoxuan waited for the people and finally got out of the carriage. They obviously don't want to squeeze into the crowd.

A group of white men stepped out of the train, led by two young men. After seeing Wu Haoxuan, the two immediately rushed over. They were Pierre Dupont of the Dupont family and David D. Rockefeller of the Rockefeller family. Both of them are the key training objects of the family, and they are responsible for the business of the family and the Xihua Group. Because those businesses have earned a lot of profits for the family, their status in the family has also risen. At the same time, it also deepened the friendship between them and Wu Haoxuan.

"Hi my dear friend, it's been a long time since we met. However, looking at the general's uniform on your body, it seems that you are quite good! Pierre Dupont gave Wu Haoxuan a bear hug, and then admired his military uniform.

"Nonsense, Wu's father is a powerful warlord in China, in Chinese terms, this is called the son inheriting the father's business." David Rockefeller said.

"Hehe, welcome to the Northeast and to Jilin. I've already arranged a place to stay, come with me! Wu Haoxuan said after hugging the two.

"Of course, this is your territory, and it's up to you to arrange it." Pierre Dupont was a casual guest.

Davis, the general manager of Wu Haoxuan's Xihua Group, couldn't interject at all at the moment, he could only signal to Wu Haoxuan with his eyes that he had something to report to Wu Haoxuan. And Wu Haoxuan gave him a slightly calm look.

The group walked out of the train station and got into the carriage that Wu Haoxuan had already prepared. There were four carriages in total, one for Wu Haoxuan, one for Pierre DuPont, one for David Rockefeller, one for Pierre Dupont's attaché, one for David Rockefeller's attaché, and one for the people of the West China Group.

Under the protection of the guards, the four carriages left the railway station and headed for the hotel that Wu Haoxuan had prepared.

"Wu, I have to say that this place is too backward, even if it is not compared with those metropolises in the United States, there is still a big gap compared with Tianjin and Yanjing." Pierre Dupont said, lowering the curtain of the carriage.

"Yes, I admit it. China is indeed lagging behind. However, we have already started to work on it, and this is undoubtedly a good start. Wu Haoxuan said with a smile.

"Yes, Wu. The country is so vast that it has the largest population in the world. If it can be developed, the future will be limitless. David Rockefeller said. It's just that he still hasn't said half a sentence, that is, if this country wants to develop, it is very difficult, almost impossible. The great powers have already treated this country as fat in a bowl, and the country has no chance of development. It's just that, as a friend, of course he wouldn't say that in front of Wu Haoxuan.

"You two, you can't just come to see me, do you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have brought so many professional attachés. Wu Haoxuan found some elites in industry and commerce from the attachés of the two.

"Wu, I swear to God, we did come to see you. However, let's also take a look at the Chinese market by the way. Especially the markets in the areas under you and your father. If the conditions are right, we can invest in a factory here. Pierre Dupont looked aggrieved.

"I am very welcome for you to come and invest in the construction of the factory. Although the Northeast is very barren, it is rich in resources. Coal, iron ore and other metal deposits are very large. We can work together to develop these resources. If the DuPont family wants to, we can build a large chemical plant, or a large explosives factory. Wu Haoxuan said with a smile, manufacturing explosives and chemicals, this is the old business of the DuPont family.

"If we want to be a sole proprietorship, is that okay?" Pierre Dupont hesitated, then said.

"It's better to be a sole proprietorship, this ancient country has always been more exclusive. If it's a joint venture, we'll have a reason to solve other problems. Wu Haoxuan knew that these Yankees were very shrewd, but he would not back down in this regard.

Pierre Dupont nodded, not saying anything more.

"Wu, I believe you are also clear about my intention, the super oil field you discovered in Mexico, our family is very interested. Therefore, we hope to be able to cooperate with the West China Group just like the oil fields in East Texas. I promise, the Rockefeller family will never let you suffer. David Rockefeller said directly.

"David, let's not talk about this issue for now, I don't know much about the oil fields in Mexico. How about we talk about it after I've read the information? ”

"Absolutely!" David Rockefeller nodded.

After three days of conversation, it was not long before the carriage arrived at its destination.

The Kuancheng Hotel, originally a six-storey building built by the Russians in Changchun, is now a hotel owned by Wu Haoxuan. The hotel is very luxuriously decorated, specially designed to receive friends from all over the world.
