Chen Dashan agreed to the grain merchants¡¯ request and quickly contacted the middleman.
Through an intermediary, the Chen family¡¯s request was quickly fed back to the Mei agency.
After intelligence section chief Suga Hikojiro heard the news, he quickly found Inukai Ken, and then the two of them came to Kage Sasaki's office.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao has been very busy recently. On the one hand, he is busy welcoming Wang Jingwei to Shanghai. On the other hand, he has to keep track of the secret battle between the Operations Section, No. 76 and the military commander in the concession. In addition, the military meets again and again every now and then. He sent a note asking their agency to cooperate with the military in carrying out some special operations, so he really felt like he was overwhelmed recently.
"I only give you five minutes!" Kage Sasaki raised his wrist to look at his watch and said, "In five minutes I will rush to the Marine Corps Headquarters to meet with General Okawauchi to receive the troops from the 731st Army. personnel."
Suga Hikojiro and Inukai Ken looked at each other and said, "Your Majesty Osaka, it's like this. The Chen family, which had cooperated with the imperial army before, united more than a dozen grain merchants to dominate the grain market, but now they are beaten by Zhong Yi. The army was defeated, so we found the imperial army and hoped that the imperial army could help."
Quan Yangjian said: "If we can help the Chen family achieve food dominance, it will undoubtedly greatly disrupt the economic order of Yinjiang and create a lot of trouble for Zhong Yi. This will undoubtedly be beneficial to the imperial army. Yes, because the slower Zhong Yi's work in Yinjiang City is carried out, the smaller the resistance will be when the imperial army attacks Yinjiang in the future."
Yingzuo Zhenzhao said: "Let's be honest, how much money does it cost to make a food hegemony?"
Inukai Ken said: "Intelligence shows that Zhong Yi ordered 200,000 tons of corn from the United States. The current public sale price is half a cent per catty. It would cost about two million silver dollars to buy all of it. Considering that someone eats it in large quantities, Food prices will definitely rise, so we need to prepare at least five million silver dollars, which is about five million yen.¡±
"Five million may not be enough." Suga Hikojiro said, "In order to become a dominant player in grains, the Chen family and the dozen grain merchants who cooperated with them have borrowed two million yuan in usury loans from banks, and now they are paying even the principal with interest. It has rolled to nearly three million yuan, and they hope the imperial army can help them tide over the difficulties."
Kage Sasaki said thoughtfully: "Inukai-kun, and Suga-kun, do you think you can borrow this money?"
"I think I can borrow it from my humble position." Quan Yangjian said without hesitation, "Because Yinjiang will be captured by the imperial army sooner or later, so there is no need to worry about not being able to recover the capital. In other words, this is a good deal with guaranteed profits and no losses. !¡±
Suga Hikojiro echoed: "I am in a humble position and don't understand economics, but I believe I agree with Inukai-kun's judgment."
"Yo Xi!" Yingzuo Zhenzhao nodded happily and said, "Then you go to the Finance Department to pay."
"Hai!" Suga Hikojiro and Inukai Ken stood at attention at the same time, and then nodded heavily.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
The thick snow has begun to slowly melt, and various construction sites that have been dormant for nearly a month have become busy again. The landfill project in Yinjiang New District has started again, and the construction projects of Zhaobaoshan and Jinjishan Fortress have also started again, because this At that time, the first batch of cement ordered by Zhong Yi from the United States had also arrived in Hong Kong.
Zhang Yuanxi walked in with a folder, handed it to Zhong Yi and said, "Mayor, please approve this payment."
In private situations, Zhang Yuanxi usually calls Zhong Yi brother-in-law or Zi Ren, but in public situations, he always calls him mayor.
Zhong Yi opened the folder, but it was for hardware materials, and the amount was as high as one million. Zhang Yuanxi said: "Because the amount of money is so large, the Finance Bureau must ask for your autograph."
This was Zhong Yi¡¯s rule. He took out his pen and signed his name.
Zhang Yuanxi took the approval document and said, "By the way, mayor, what about the hundreds of thousands of free labor mentioned before?"
"Don't be anxious yet, it's coming soon." Zhong Yi chuckled and said, "It will take another half a month at most."
"Half a month?" Zhang Yuanxi smiled slightly when he heard this, but secretly thought to himself, I believe you are a big-headed ghost.
Watching Zhang Yuanxi leave, Zhong Yi subconsciously rubbed his bald chin. Before going out in the morning, Zhang Manyi shaved him personally, and it felt very refreshing to the touch.
At this moment, Cao Ziying suddenly came in and said with a flattering face: "Mayor, there is a situation!"
"What's the situation?" Zhong Yi asked casually, while thinking a little boredly, would he go to the Zhaobaoshan Fortress construction site later and see the officers' class students by the way?
No matter what, he, Zhong Yi, is also the class teacher of the officer class.
Cao Ziying said: "There was a sudden noise at the train station.I have a lot of mud legs and are frantically buying corn! "
"Rush-buying corn?" Zhong Yi turned around immediately after hearing this and said in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on?"
"That's it." Cao Ziying swallowed and said, "In accordance with your instructions, mayor, I sent patrol police to guard Jiangbei Railway Station 24 hours a day, firstly to maintain order on the scene, and secondly to monitor the sales of corn. People are limited to purchasing fifty kilograms per day, and those who exceed fifty kilograms will be fined!"
Zhong Yi said suddenly: "You didn't impose arbitrary fines, did you?"
"The conscience of heaven and earth." Cao Ziying swore, "As of today, no ticket has been issued? Mayor, you have to believe me, Lao Cao, I and the patrol officers under me have really changed their minds. From now on, we will definitely Follow you and serve the Yinjiang elders conscientiously and sincerely!"
"I believe you." Zhong Yi said, "What happened to what you just said?"
"It's like this." Cao Ziying said, "Actually, there were signs from last night. Most of the people who came were villagers from nearby towns. Citizens in the city rarely bought fifty catties. They usually only bought ten catties. Five kilograms, but these villagers all bought fifty kilograms, and early this morning, these villagers came again and wanted to buy fifty kilograms!"
After a pause, Cao Ziying continued: "I feel very suspicious about my humble position, not to mention the Chen family and those grain merchants who secretly colluded with them, and they came to eat corn secretly! In this case, we can't sell them!"
"I understand." Zhong Yi said, "You go back and keep watching. However, you can't stop them from buying grain. What if their family is really waiting for the corn to be cooked? If you don't let them buy it, the whole family will have to pay attention." Hungry?"
"Yes." Cao Ziying stood up straight, then turned around and walked away quickly.
Watching Cao Ziying leave, Zhong Yi rang the bell again to call Zhou Baoyu in, and said: "Secretary-General Zhou, call the Zhao family in Xiaogang immediately"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Xingjiu¡¯s figure had already walked in from the door.
"No need to fight." Zhao Xingjiu sat down on the reception chair carelessly and said, "Mayor Zhongda, this old guy like me is here to eat for you again." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel. com
