Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 764 Onboard!seven

There is now $11 in the Citibank account.

Qian Xiaobao felt that he could finally take a breath, but the matter was far from over.

There are a lot of messy things to transport the machinery and equipment back from Shanghai, and there are many places to spend money.

The two largest expenses are the purchase of land and the construction of factories.These two sums of money have not been settled at all so far.

"I'm going back to Shanghai right away. After you get the telegram I sent in Shanghai, you immediately contact a ship with a displacement of about [-] tons to ship the equipment to Shanghai." Qian Xiaobao said.

"The [-]-ton ship has to be transported several times to complete the shipment. It is better to send two [-]-ton ships to transport the equipment at one time." Second Lieutenant Abe said.

"According to what I said, if someone asks you the same thing, you just say that it takes time to disassemble and arrange the equipment, so you can only transport so much at one time." Qian Xiaobao said.

Lin Zhengjiang was also very busy during this time, he took such a big advantage from Qian Xiaobao, so he ran very hard.After giving the middleman a large yellow croaker, Lin Zhengjiang finally met Mr. Kong who had great influence in the government.

Although Mr. Kong has stepped down from the positions of Vice President of the Executive Yuan and Minister of Finance, his influence is still huge.Don't even look at the relationship between Mr. Kong and the old man!
After twenty large yellow croakers were delivered, Lin Zhengjiang could finally go back and wait for news with peace of mind.More than ten days later, the Ministry of Economic Affairs finally agreed to sell the machinery and equipment of Shanghai Fuhe Spinning Mill to Japan's Takashima Textile Co., Ltd. for a price of [-] US dollars.

Masahiro Okamoto, who worked hard, made a list for Chairman Takashima, which was filled with the expenses required for dismantling the equipment.

"Need four tons of hemp rope and [-] catties of hay?" Qian Xiaobao asked in surprise.

"In order to transport these machinery and equipment back to Japan in good condition, we need to wrap hay bales on the outside of some equipment and tie them carefully with hemp rope." Masahiro Okamoto replied.

Looking at the densely written list, Qian Xiaobao didn't speak for a long time.

Everything written here is money.

No matter what you think before doing something, it is very simple, but when you actually do it, you have a lot of thoughts. Many things seem small, but they are all indispensable.

Qian Xiaobao left [-] U.S. dollars to Second Lieutenant Abe to deal with the freight, and he could only use his own money for the dismantling of equipment in Shanghai and transporting them to the dock for loading.Strictly speaking, it is the money of Kaoru Kobayashi and Xiaohong.

After reading the list made by Masahiro Okamoto, Qian Xiaobao found that his current money was far from enough.

But those big gold bars can't be taken out now, because there is no way to sell them.

"Mr. Okamoto, first prepare for the dismantling of [-]-ton equipment. Japan sent a telegram saying that only one ship with a displacement of [-] tons could be found at that time. It is said that all ships with a displacement of [-] tons were requisitioned by the Mi Army, which is [-] tons." Tons of equipment may not be able to hold it." Qian Xiaobao said.

"Hi!" Masahiro Okamoto nodded.

"You and the people you recruited must keep an eye on them, not a single screw is missing!" Qian Xiaobao instructed.

When drinking tea with Lin Zhengjiang in the teahouse, Lin Zhengjiang smiled and said to Qian Xiaobao: "Brother, you are hiding so deeply, so you are President Takashima!"

"Brother, how can I be qualified to be the president of this puppet? Some big figures in Japan heard that I have connections here, and they are not convenient to show up, so they let me be the president of this puppet. They are the ones who really eat meat , I just have a sip of soup!" Qian Xiaobao explained.

Lin Zhengjiang suddenly realized and nodded: "Understand! Understood!"

He has seen this kind of thing too much in the government, and he fully understands Qian Xiaobao.

"Hey, Japan has started construction again, and the government is still busy fighting a civil war. I really don't know when the war will end." Lin Zhengjiang said with a sigh.

It seems that Lin Zhengjiang still has a little bit of conscience, which is why he can say such words.

The ship transporting the equipment finally arrived at the Whampoa Wharf. The bundled equipment, mainly flower binding machines, were transported to the wharf for loading.

Kobayashi Kaoru also rushed to the pier to watch with Xiaohong's company.

It was already January and the weather was cold, but all the dock workers who loaded the ship were shirtless and carried wooden poles to load the equipment on the ship.

"Come back with me this time, let's see how big your belly is?" Qian Xiaobao said to Xiao Linxun.

Calculating the time, Kobayashi Kaoru has been more than eight months, and the child will be born in more than one month.

But Kobayashi Kaoru still shook her head resolutely, if she returned to Japan for a while this time, it would be impossible for her to come back.And it seems that Qian Xiaobao will have to travel between Japan and Shanghai for a long time.

Xiaolin Xun never gave Qian Xiaobao and Xiaohong a chance to be alone.

"You can leave at ease. I'm used to sleeping on the same bed with her these past few months. If she leaves suddenly, I won't be able to sleep at night. What are you afraid of if I take care of her?" Xiaohong said.

This time Qian Xiaobao almost spent all the savings of the two women.Every drop of sweat from dock workers makes the sound of money.

After the cargo ship set sail, Qian Xiaobao sent a telegram to Second Lieutenant Abe asking him to wait for him in Tokyo, and he hurried on the passenger ship back to Tokyo the next day.

When Qian Xiaobao got off the boat and saw Second Lieutenant Abe and Chief Cao Kawakami who greeted him, the first thing he said was to ask: "Have the things I arranged are done?"

"I have already called Earl Komatsu and Chairman Yasuda, and told them that the equipment has started to be shipped. Earl Komatsu has already contacted the Sumitomo Foundation and the people from Mitsui, and you will meet with them right away." Second Lieutenant Abe replied .

Qian Xiaobao looked at Mr. Cao Kawakami.

"I have contacted the reporters from Asahi Shimbun and Mainichi Shimbun in private, but their asking price is very high, five hundred dollars!" Kawakami Cho said.

Cao Chang Kawakami is now the director of a police station in Shibuya, Tokyo.So Qian Xiaobao handed over the matter to him.

Qian Xiaobao turned around and asked Second Lieutenant Abe: "How much money do we have?"

"Less than two thousand dollars." Second Lieutenant Abe replied.

"Give them!" Qian Xiaobao said.

Two days later, both the Asahi Shimbun and the Mainichi Shimbun published hundreds of words of news reports that Takashima Textile Co., Ltd. had shipped back a large amount of equipment from China to build a large textile enterprise in Osaka.

Qian Xiaobao held the newspaper and said to Second Lieutenant Abe: "Tomorrow we will go to Sumitomo to pay a visit to their president!"

"Actually, people from Toyobo have already contacted me. If our equipment is really the batch of Swiss equipment purchased by Fuhe Spinning Mill in 120, they are willing to pay [-] million US dollars to buy it." Second Lieutenant Abe said.

In other words, if Qian Xiaobao resells the equipment, he can immediately make a net profit of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

"Don't sell it! Don't sell it! Abe, we are only one meter away from entrepreneurs." Qian Xiaobao said firmly.
