If the bullet factory cannot buy high-quality male-free gunpowder, it cannot produce qualified bullets.

If there is no way to produce bullets on its own, then the Zhejiang East Coast Defense Corps and the Zhejiang Anti-Enemy Self-Defense Corps will only be able to purchase them from the United States. There is no problem at this stage, but once the Pacific War breaks out, the Japanese Navy will completely block the Chinese coast. At that time, the Zhejiang East Coast Defense Corps and the Zhejiang Anti-Enemy Self-Defense Corps will immediately be blind.

Therefore, we must find a way to solve the problem of smokeless fire powder, and no matter how difficult it is, we must solve it.

After leaving the bullet factory, Zhong Yi ordered Xu Chao to go to the gunpowder factory.

The gunpowder factory was founded by the King of Chemical Engineering Qin Yexian, and both are in the same park as the bullet factory.

Yinxi's industrial park is actually divided into regions, such as towel factories, flour factories, soy sauce factories, MSG factories, mosquito coil factories, etc., and is concentrated in the first park, but factories involving military industries such as steel factories, power plants, bullet factories, chemical factories, etc. are concentrated in the second park.

The security measures in the second park are more stringent, and even workers in the factory need to be strictly identified.

Of course, this is to prevent the infiltration and destruction of Japanese and puppet spies. In addition, Zhong Yi has also set up hundreds of air defense positions in the second park. In the future, Zhong Yi plans to order 200 Dshk heavy machine guns from the Soviet Union and arrange them in the second park. With so many heavy machine guns, the Japanese will take huge risks to bomb the second park.

In short, the gunpowder factory is next to the bullet factory, and there is a wall.

When Zhong Yi came to the gunpowder factory, he did not see Qin Yexian as soon as possible.

After asking, I found out that Qin Yexian was in the trial production workshop and the chief engineer was testing new products.

At that moment, Zhong Yi took Xu Chao straight to the trial production workshop of the gunpowder factory. As soon as the two of them reached the door, a loud bang suddenly came from the trial production workshop.

But there was only a loud noise, but no thick smoke overflowed.

There were a lot of glassware and fragments of the workbench flying out of the broken window.

Immediately afterwards, several figures escaped from the same broken door, one of them still had a bloody face.

Although the man's face was covered in blood, he looked extremely excited and shouted with a dance: "Success, Master Wang, we have succeeded, we have made high-quality smokeless gunpowder!"

Another middle-aged man looked very excited and nodded vigorously, "Yes, we succeeded!"

Only then did Zhong Yi finally recognize that the person bleeding was Qin Yexian. He immediately stepped forward and said, "Mr. Qin, follow me to the hospital and deal with the wound."

"It's okay, I'm not a big deal." Qin Yexian waved his hand casually and said, "Mayor, you're here just right. I have great news to tell you that we have successfully tried the smokeless gunpowder!"

Zhong Yi didn't know how to reply, but he was left with inexplicable touch.

In fact, this has always been the case with the Chinese people, and they have never lacked the spirit of exploration.

During the Republic of China, there were chemical kings like Qin Yexian, and there were oil men like Wang Jinxi when they arrived in New China.

The only difference is that Qin Lifeng failed to fully exert his light in the Republic of China era, but in New China, a large number of people like Wang Jinxi fully exerted their enthusiasm and light.

After wiping the blood on his face, Qin Yexian continued: "Mayor, the bullet factory can safely increase production capacity! At least our gunpowder factory will never drag you down."

Zhong Yi nodded, and his words turned into one sentence: "Mr. Qin, thank you for your hard work."

"Not hard work." Qin Yexian waved his hand and sighed, "Compared with those soldiers of the National Army who fought desperately with the Japanese on the frontline battlefield, what is my job worth?"

"No, Mr. Qin, you are wrong. Your work is very important, more important than the soldiers of the national army on the front line!" Zhong Yi said solemnly, "If you hadn't taken the risk of trying to make gunpowder, our soldiers would probably have to fight with the Japanese empty-handed. It was you who gave them the sharp teeth and claws to kill the enemy and serve the country!"

Qin Yexian was embarrassed to be said and waved his hands repeatedly.

Zhong Yi said with concern again: "Mr. Qin, I heard that many of your Zhonghua Society's products are backlogged in the warehouse?"

Qin Yexian’s Sinochem Society was the first to set up a factory in Yinjiang. The three-way and one-level project in Yinxi had just begun, and Qin Yexian had already started to set up a factory in the industrial park.

When the park was leveled and other factories were moved in one after another, Sinochem's factories had already started production one after another.

Sinochem has many types of factories, including mosquito coil factory, MSG factory, soy sauce factory, cosmetics factory, etc.

However, after the products of Zhongche Society were produced, Yinjiang City was abolishing the circulation of legal currency, which made it impossible for buyers from other cities and even provinces to purchase.

Yinjiang's local purchasing power is limited, which has caused a large-scale product backlog.

Qin Yexian worked so hard, for Yinjiang and Zhejiang East China Sea Defense Corps to test the production of smokeless gunpowder. As mayor, Zhong Yi must not be without expression, otherwise it will disappoint the patriotic and lofty ambitions.

It is very difficult to keep people's hearts warm, but it is easy to cool them down.

Qin Yexian didn't want to cause trouble for Zhong Yi, so she shook her head and said, "It's okay, the difficulties are only temporary. I believe that under your leadership of Mayor Zhong, you will be able to survive this period."

Qin Yexian's words were not polite, he really had confidence in Zhong Yi.

Because Qin Yexian had never seen a national official who could have the courage and execution ability of Zhong Yi. Of course, Zhong Yi's ability to dance with a long sleeve also left a deep impression on Qin Yexian.

At the level of Qin Yexian, he had the opportunity to get in touch with the core of power of the National Government. Therefore, Qin Yexian also heard about the disgust between Chongqing and Yinjiang. It is not easy for Zhong Yi to remain the position of Mayor Yinjiang without being liked by Principal Chang.

Therefore, Qin Yexian believed that Zhong Yi could survive this storm.

The abolition of the circulation of fiat currency will indeed cause a backlog of industrial products in the short term, but in the long term, it has created a good business environment for business owners in Yinjiang City. Otherwise, if the legal currency is allowed to be circulated, the better their business, the greater their losses, and in the end they will have to close down one by one.

Therefore, Qin Yexian really doesn't want to cause any trouble to Zhong Yi.

But for Zhong Yi, this is really not a problem.

Because for Zhong Yi, helping Qin Yexian is a win-win situation.

At that moment, Zhong Yi waved his hand and said, "Mr. Qin, listen to me first. I am not for your Zhonghua Society, but also for all the merchants in the Industrial Park."

Qin Yexian felt aroused when he heard this and said, "I wish to hear it carefully."
