Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 758 Onboard!one
Qian Xiaobao and Lin Zhengjiang were sitting in the teahouse.

Since the death of his big backer, Boss Dai, Lin Zhengjiang has been helpless like a child without a mother. Now he is very low-key in the military command, and he has no idea of ​​continuing to climb up.

Now in the intrigue and murderous military command, it would be nice to save one's life, how dare you think about getting promoted and getting rich?
"I want to buy equipment from a Japanese cotton mill, is there any way for you?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

Lin Zhengjiang was stunned by Qian Xiaobao's words. He looked at Qian Xiaobao and did not speak for a long time.

"It's not me. A Japanese friend asked me to ask." Qian Xiaobao explained.

Lin Zhengjiang nodded, of course he knew that Qian Xiaobao was still in contact with those Japanese.His subordinates once reported to him that they saw Qian Xiaobao entering and exiting Mingfu Tuju's residence in Hongkou.

"Now the national government is fully focused on fighting the war, and the economy can only be put aside first. I heard that the national government is indeed planning to dispose of the equipment of dozens of Japanese spinning mills. What do you do now? It doesn't cost money, and the country is short of money. Dispose of the equipment Yes, you can exchange it for some money." Lin Zhengjiang said.

After Japan occupied China, it restructured its economy.A large number of textile industries moved to Shanghai, which can not only take advantage of the huge and cheap Chinese labor force but also be close to the cotton producing area, and then transport it back to Japan after production.This can save a lot of cost, and then vigorously develop military industry and heavy industry in Japan.

However, after Japan's defeat, Japan and China completely became two markets. All Japanese spinning mills were confiscated by the government of the Republic of China, and most of the few spinning mills that remained in Japan were also destroyed during the bombing.

Therefore, Japan is now short of fabrics and has no opportunity to use the textile industry to export foreign exchange.

If all the spinning mills are bought by Chinese businessmen, it will immediately cause a surplus of Chinese fabrics.There are too many people in China who are not fully clothed, but they simply cannot afford it.And the cashmere, flannel and silk that rich people need are completely imported. That is to say, rich people buy foreign products, while poor people cannot afford domestic products.

So it is appropriate for these machines and equipment to be shipped out of China.Chinese businessmen are not interested in buying these equipment - what if the expansion of production fails to sell?
"My friend in Japan wants to ask through me how much it costs to buy machinery and equipment for a spinning mill," Qian Xiaobao said.

Lin Zhengjiang replied: "If it is a business, it will be expensive. If the relationship is well communicated, those things are a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron! Do you understand what I mean?"

"Understood! If this matter is done, you will benefit greatly!" Qian Xiaobao said.

Lin Zhengjiang pondered for a moment and said: "Brothers will settle accounts clearly. Although we are good friends, it is better to say something in advance. I will go to communicate on this matter for you. Twenty large yellow croakers should be almost enough. After the matter is completed, I will The reward is ten large yellow croakers!"

"Okay, it's a deal! My Japanese friend said that he wants all the equipment of Fuhe Spinning Mill, including not one screw! The total price is one hundred thousand dollars!" Qian Xiaobao said.

This price is a little more expensive than buying scrap copper and rotten iron.And buying these devices at the price of the equipment is worth at least millions of dollars.

"Okay, I'll go run this matter tomorrow." Lin Zhengjiang said.

"I'll go back to Japan right away. When the time comes, you need to find a good ship to transport [-] tons of cotton and [-] tons of sugar to the open sea. My ship will trade with you on the island. Then I will hand over [-] pounds to you right away." Qian Xiaobao instructed.

"No problem!" Lin Zhengjiang said briskly.

It is good for two people to be good friends, they have a sense of trust between each other, if there is a stranger, no matter how high the price is, Lin Zhengjiang will not be able to sell it and will not dare to sell it.

When Qian Xiaobao returned home, Xiaohong put two stacks of 20 yuan in front of him and said, "Take it to buy a boat ticket, and return the 40 yuan to me when you come back!"

Now Xiaolin Xun has no money, only the iron box that Xiaohong brought from the Northeast still has a lot of hard goods.

Qian Xiaobao hurriedly put Dayang in his pocket and walked out, saying, "These are the rent for your one-year stay here!"

Ten days later, Qian Xiaobao came to the slipway of the Imabari Shipyard in Koura Town, Imabari.

The more than 50-meter-long whaler is nearing completion.But at least it will take a trial voyage for a period of time before rushing to the sea off Zhoushan.

Masayoshi Kawaguchi and the other four were more excited than Qian Xiaobao when they watched the whaling ship.These four people were originally on the Izumo, and they have survived until now, but poverty has been worse than death. Now they see the hope of salted fish turning around on the whaling ship.

Half a month later, the whaling ship slowly sailed out of Imabari Port, crossed the Seto Inland Sea westward and then went south through the Bungo Channel into the Pacific Ocean.

Masahiro Kawaguchi was manipulating the whaling ship, and Ryuji Sasaki excitedly climbed up to the watchtower on the mast and yelled.

Qian Xiaobao stood at the bow of the ship. He had always been interested in the whaling cannon that could launch a harpoon.

Now there are more than a dozen people on board, including Second Lieutenant Abe Oyama and Kawaguchi Masahiro.Most of them were found by Second Lieutenant Abe.

This ship has a slender hull and powerful power, and its fastest speed exceeds eighteen knots.

Masahiro Kawaguchi accelerated from time to time, reversed the car, and made big and small turns.

Qian Xiaobao stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the boundless blue sea, feeling very happy in his heart.

When a group of people were sitting on the deck eating cod sushi, Second Lieutenant Abe asked, "When are we going to China to deliver the goods?"

"I can go there immediately after the trial voyage. There are [-] tons of cotton and [-] tons of sugar in total. I should be able to transport them back with this ship at one time." Qian Xiaobao said.

"I will contact the buyer as soon as I land, and I can sell the supplies as soon as they arrive in Japan," Second Lieutenant Abe said.

"I have one thing to say. This time I went to Shanghai to meet General Akio Doi. I told the general about our plan. He thought it was inappropriate for us to do this. Obviously there are a lot of right ways in Japan now. Why do you want to do such sneaky and illegal activities when you have the opportunity to make money?" Qian Xiaobao said.

"So I decided to build a textile factory in Osaka. After you go back, you will go to Osaka to choose a site, and the machinery and equipment will arrive soon. At that time, I will reluctantly serve as the chairman, and you, as the backbone cadres of the company, will be responsible for the construction and installation of the factory. Equipment recruiters, there is a lot of work waiting for us to do!" Qian Xiaobao said with a confident look.

Obviously it doesn't matter what you want now, but Qian Xiaobao still pretended to be a big deal and made big cakes for the people present.

This is the typical demeanor of all successful people throughout the ages!

"How much does it cost to buy land, buy equipment, and build a factory? We, do we have that much money?" Second Lieutenant Abe asked suspiciously.

"I've already solved the money problem, you just need to work on it!" Qian Xiaobao replied calmly.
