Chapter 441 Feast
Saito Ryuichi's words are by no means alarmist.
The purpose of everyone participating in this huge network is to earn enough money for retirement.
These high-ranking military officers take the lion's share, but the people below them also need to eat.
Now the materials cannot be shipped out of the warehouse and cannot be converted into cash, which means there is no money to be shared.
Smuggling goods is a matter of life and death. If there is no considerable benefit, who would be so stupid as to do that?
If you pull out the radish, you will bring out the mud. These cannon fodders will definitely choose to withdraw if they can't get the money.
The consequences would be serious, and there would definitely be problems with the flow of all materials.
Chen Yang frowned and said, "I understand everyone's situation very well, but the Manchurian Railway is now determined to operate the southern line on its own."
"The local side also strongly supports the decision of the Manchuria Railway, and I dare not object."
Sato Fumitai took a sip of tea and said, "Prime Minister Konoe originally wanted to improve transportation efficiency after the Manchuria Railway took over."
"But now it seems that Yoshikawa Yujiro has no ability to do so and will only drag down the transportation lines in the south."
"Mr. Chen, you can rest assured. As the head of the logistics department of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, I have the responsibility to report everything I see back to my homeland."
"The Manchurian Railway has been too arrogant in recent years, always thinking that they can control the speed at which China obtains materials with the railways in their hands."
"Mr. Matsuoka himself is from a transportation background. He should know what a stable and efficient transportation line means."
"I believe it won't be long before Chen Sang can return to that position."
After hearing what General Sato said, the navy people rarely sang a different tune.
Kenichi Hiromoto also echoed, "I will also report the current situation of the southern transportation line to the mainland."
"Such an important transportation line was destroyed like this by them. Yoshikawa Yujiro should commit seppuku to apologize."
Chen Yang smiled and said, "Actually, there's no need to be so angry. Staff Officer Abe from the Expeditionary Force Headquarters has sent us news."
"General Nishio issued an ultimatum, requiring Yoshikawa Yujiro to restore all freight on the southern route before October 1st."
"It's not that I look down on him. With his ability, being able to operate one-third of the lines is already the limit."
"It would take a hundred Yoshikawa Yujiros to completely control the route I laid out."
"So, I advise everyone to stay calm."
Colonel Nohara shouted, "That's what we said, but we can't wait. If we don't have any income for a month, what can we give to the people below us?"
"If they rebel, we won't be able to suppress them."
"Colonel Nohara, do you mean that you can't control your men?" Chen Yang's eyes narrowed and his tone became somewhat impolite.
"That's not the case. It's just that we can't get the money, so everyone is worried." Nohara Takeo didn't get angry, but explained timidly.
Chen Yang walked slowly to the end of the red carpet, turned around and said, "Everyone, since I invited you to the banquet, there must be a main course for this banquet."
"Tonight's main course is Jinshan..."
"Pa pa pa." Chen Yang clapped his hands slowly, the door of the box opened, and one figure after another walked into the box carrying stacks of US dollars.
People walking along the red carpet slowly put down the US dollars in their hands. There were more than a dozen people in the group, but the amount of US dollars was astonishing.
It took more than a dozen people half an hour to move in all the US dollars.
At this moment, brand new US dollars were spread out like a golden mountain in the middle of the red carpet.
These US dollars are all in denominations of twenty dollars, which is also the largest denomination in circulation on the market.
You have to know that this dollar can be exchanged for two small yellow croakers. If you use this to buy things, people will definitely think you are a lunatic.
If you want to use this money to buy a bowl of wontons, the boss might pack up the wonton stall and his wife and give them to you when he sees the money.
Therefore, the purpose of this money is to be used in large-scale trade.
"Here is five million dollars, which I prepared for you," Chen Yang said slowly as he stood in front of Jin Shan. "I know you are all very anxious, but please don't be anxious yet."
"If you use a tough attitude to drive Yoshikawa down, Mantetsu will still arrange for a second Yoshikawa to come if there is a chance."
"So, I have to let the Army Department see clearly that this position is not something that anyone can hold."
"Therefore, I need some time. During this period, I and the Akutagawa Council of the Osaka Chamber of Commerce will take over all the materials you have. You just need to put them in the warehouse and wait."
"In the next month, all the supplies will be invoiced and handed over to Miss Tsukitaki Sakawada Sakurako. You can get the money by presenting the invoice."
"I want to let those people in the Manchuria Railway know that Mr. Matsuoka's so-called lifeline of Manchuria and Mongolia is a joke in front of the southern transportation network."
"I've made sure they never dare covet our southern transportation routes again."
Chen Yang's move to stabilize the morale of the troops was indeed incredibly powerful. Seeing the mountains of US dollars, coupled with Chen Yang's domineering remarks and financial guarantees.
Everyone present put on a smiling face.
Of course, some people later began to worry that Tsukita Sha putting so much money in would attract the attention of some big-name thieves.
Colonel Nobuo Mutō of the expeditionary army's logistics department even suggested that a squadron could be pulled over from the expeditionary army's logistics department for protection.
However, he was quickly rejected by Chen Yang.
In fact, Chen Yang had already arranged people from Xiaotongqiao to do security work around Yue Longsha.
The total number of people on the open and hidden lines will not be less than that of a squadron.
Seeing Chen Yang's attitude, everyone didn't worry too much about this issue.
Seeing that there was money to be won, the atmosphere in the venue began to warm up, and the two sides stopped their verbal sparring and turned it into a drinking contest.
The army and navy deer are natural enemies. Even in this situation, they still have to decide the winner...
Shanghai, Zhabei District, Jinjiafang.
This is the location of the Manchuria Railway Investigation Bureau in Shanghai.
This is an inconspicuous small Western-style building facing the street, with a total of four floors.
In the office on the top floor, Yoshiko Kawashima looked at the telegram in her hand with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Assistant Nagao, is Yoshikawa really not capable?" Yoshiko Kawashima looked at another figure in the office.
"Ms. Kawashima, Yoshikawa has done his best. He has hardly slept since he took over the Southern Vertical Characters Course. He has put all his energy into it, but he still cannot control such a complicated transportation route."
Nagao Tomohito sighed and said, "The Expeditionary Force Headquarters has issued an ultimatum. If the issue is not resolved by October 1, Yoshikawa-kun will have to step down."
"You need to make plans early."
Kawashima Yoshiko rubbed her brows and looked at another figure in the room and said slowly: "Third Master, those goods will not arrive in Shanghai until at least the sixth of next month."
"The transport line cannot be lost so easily."
“If we can’t solve the problem, then we can solve the people.”
"Break Chen Yang's three legs. I want him to be unable to get out of bed in a short period of time, and he won't be able to do a four-wheel alignment for at least a month..."
Feel good? Urge, reward, comment, thank...
