Chapter 422 A backup plan for you
Shanghai, Japanese villa area.
A black sedan with a small sun flag flying on it drove all the way to the front of the villa area.
Chen Yang got out of the car and looked at the familiar building in front of him, feeling inexplicably complicated.
In his opinion, if there was anyone who knew about the whole thing, Li Xianshu must be one of them.
However, Li Xianshu had not given any warning, which made Chen Yang somewhat suspicious of her purpose.
But no matter what, you will know the answer when you see her.
At the entrance of the villa, the maid Chiyoko was standing at the door, playing with her fingers boredly.
Seeing Chen Yang, Chiyoko seemed to be relieved, and stepped forward quickly and saluted, saying: "Sir, you are finally here."
"I've been waiting for you at the door for more than an hour."
"You waiting for me?" Chen Yang was slightly stunned. It seemed that Li Xianshu had known that he would definitely come to find her.
As Chiyoko walked away, she said, "My wife told me not to open the door for you if you don't come before sunset."
Chen Yang's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Li Xianshu was not only one of the people who knew about the situation, but she might have even prepared a way out for him.
She just wanted to know when Chen Yang would be able to see it clearly. If after this time, Chen Yang still couldn't see it clearly, then he would lose his value.
Of course, this loss of value is not as serious as losing one's life. Li Xianshu will definitely protect him, but he will definitely be asked to give up the important positions in his hands.
Thinking of this, Chen Yang couldn't help but feel fortunate that he was not so arrogant as to look down on everyone, and also thanks to Kondo Kenichi's reminder.
"Aunt." Walking into the villa, Chen Yang saw Li Xianshu sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed.
Hearing the voice, Li Xianshu opened her eyes and glanced at Chen Yang, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and said: "You are very good, you came faster than I expected."
"It seems that you have figured out some things."
Chen Yang was not surprised. Li Xianshu had always been a very intelligent person, and it was obvious that she knew everything.
"Aunt, I want to know why? What did I do wrong? Who wants me to go down?" Chen Yang stated the problem directly.
"It's nothing strange. You're developing too fast and that's causing others to be wary of you."
“This is the most basic reason and the most important reason.”
"What you mean is that they think they can't control me, so they want to destroy me and find someone to replace me?" Chen Yang was not stupid and understood it immediately.
"But this reason doesn't seem to be enough. They don't know what cards I have in my hand."
"Aren't they afraid that I might make a big fuss?"
"Of course I'm afraid." Li Xianshu smiled and said, "So, the Army Department needs to have a suitable reason to let you down, and the Navy Department needs to see clearly where you stand."
"What does this mean?" Chen Yang was a little confused by this reason.
"What should I say?" Li Xianshu rubbed his brows and said, "Many people in the headquarters know about your corruption with the logistics department."
"They sent Hiroyama Masaharu out to find out some trivial things, to give an explanation to the headquarters, and to teach you a lesson so that you can be more restrained."
"But you only took one week to make up for all the losses. Hiroyama Masaharu checked more than a dozen departments and still found nothing."
"Some guys have seen your strength and are beginning to worry about whether your existence poses a threat to the empire."
"But they don't want any mistakes to happen in the big network you have created."
"Because in their opinion, the speed of your network is several or even dozens of times faster than what they planned."
"The routes under the jurisdiction of Colonel Osawa of the Northern Command Department do not have even one-tenth of your transportation capacity."
"Originally, someone in the empire suggested that Colonel Ozawa copy your model to govern the north."
"The Manchurian Railway's top brass was even prepared to bleed heavily and approved a budget of 10 million."
"As a result, Ozawa spent four months and not only did he fail to successfully build a network, but he also made everyone in the logistics department feel insecure."
"Some goods were not allowed to leave the warehouse without going through various levels of review. Instead of increasing efficiency, it was reduced again. This situation made the Manchurian Railway's top management very embarrassed."
Oh, are they afraid that Osawa Takao will use force to sting the law? Everyone in the logistics department is a smart guy.
Do you really think it's so easy to give money? If you just stuff money into someone's pocket, they may not dare to accept it. Who knows if your money is too hot to touch and whether it will cost them their lives if they take it?
"So, they want to take advantage of the situation?" Chen Yang's face darkened instantly.
"And what about the Admiralty?"
Li Xianshu smiled and said, "Because of Shizuka's father, Mr. Fujiwara Nao."
"Do you know Yoshida Zengo?"
Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Of course I know, Admiral of the Navy, he has taken over the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet since 1937."
"What does this have to do with him? Wait, is it because Mr. Yonai recommended Rear Admiral Yamamoto to take over the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet?"
"You are very smart." Li Xianshu sighed.
"Power struggle is inevitable in any country."
"Yamamoto Isoroku's succession to the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet as Rear Admiral caused dissatisfaction among many people."
"Mr. Fujiwara and Minister Yonai are both his supporters. Moreover, in order to ruin the bear hunting plan, Minister Yonai is even willing to help you fill the deficit of the Army Logistics Department."
"It's like you're stealing food from their bowls, taking a big spoonful of the portion that originally belonged to them. In their eyes, you're naturally an eyesore."
"They just want to teach you a lesson."
"This lesson seems a bit too much." Chen Yang frowned and said, "They are planning to beat me to death. This is also called a lesson."
"Don't be anxious." Li Xianshu raised her hand to signal Chen Yang to be patient.
"Don't forget who Shizuka's father is."
"Actually, this is also a small test for you."
"If you can't see the depth of this and are brought down by them, then put everything aside and go to Japan with Shizuka obediently."
"He will help you arrange everything when the time comes,"
"If you can show up here within the stipulated time, it proves that there is nothing wrong with your vision and mind."
"So, now is the time to introduce you to two of your future partners."
"Chiyoko, go and ask the two gentlemen to come down."
Li Xianshu gave an order, then slowly leaned back on the sofa.
Chiyoko heard the sound and ran in, bowed to Li Xianshu, and then ran upstairs.
After waiting for about three minutes, footsteps were heard from the stairs.
Two middle-aged men in suits followed Chiyoko downstairs, one after the other.
Li Xianshu stood up at this time and smiled at Chen Yang: "Let me introduce you, this is Director Ogasawara Goro, the head of the business department of Sumitomo Group."
"This is Mr. Miyamoto Osamu, the head of Mitsubishi Group's Asian Affairs Division."
"They are the backup that Mr. Fujiwara left for you."
