spy cloud

At the entrance of the Yamato Hotel, Zhang Tianhao appeared directly outside the door with Qianzhong Wu Teng, holding an invitation card in his hand.

And two Japanese spies stood there, looking at the people holding the invitations one by one, and they could bring a person into here, and every person who entered would be checked.

"Please show the invitation card and identification card!"

Zhang Tianhao and Qianzhong Wuteng didn't say much, but directly took out their identity certificates and invitation cards and put them in the hands of the guards at the gate for them to check.

Zhang Tianhao's identity certificate is also a new one, the old one has been replaced by Qian Zhongwu Teng.

"So it's Qianzhong-kun and Mihara-kun, sorry to bother you, please!"

With fluent Japanese, Zhang Tianhao and the others were directly let in.

Walking into the hall, there were already many people in the hall, most of them were with beauties, only Zhang Tianhao was with Qian Chong Wu Teng.

But no one would notice him here. After all, there were quite a lot of people in the entire hall, not a hundred, but fifty or sixty people.

As for the waiters, they had already stood by the side, or carried plates between the guests.

"Hahaha, President Mihara, you are a rare guest, please come inside, please come inside."

At this time, when Kodama's secretary saw Zhang Tianhao and Senzhong Wuteng, he couldn't help laughing loudly and walked over, while making a gesture of please.

"So it's Mr. San Zuo, excuse me!"

Zhang Tianhao bowed slightly as a salute, and then walked towards the hall in the middle.

Kotaro Sanzuo, Kodama's secretary, although he is the secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, is also the secretary of a Japanese secret service, mainly for business.

Of course, the treatment of anti-Japanese people is the same as that of other secret service agencies. They all arrest people, interrogate them, and so on.

Walking into the hall, the eyes swept across the entire hall. It can be said that the men are well-dressed and the women are beautiful and smiling.

Suddenly, Zhang Tianhao's eyes fell on a young woman, and he did not expect to meet the Gao family father and son here.

"Why are the father and daughter of the Gao family here?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Zhang Tianhao's eyes, but he was relieved immediately. At least Gao Jinbao and Gao Lanzhi's family still had some status in the Shanghai gang.

They who have been wiped out in the world in history are still alive.

"wrong!"

When the man turned around, Zhang Tianhao realized that it was not Gao Jinbao who was with Gao Lanzhi, but another person, a stranger.

"It seems that there is an extra piece of green on my head, which is really interesting!"

As for Gao Lanzhi, Zhang Tianhao originally provided a good life in the United States, but she just gave up and returned to Shanghai to start her big sister's business.

"It seems that we still need someone to investigate the Gao family. I don't know if Gao Jinbao is dead."

As soon as he thought about it, he immediately gave up this idea and began to look around.

Similarly, there are some people he knows here. Of course, most of the people he knows are from the Japanese Chamber of Commerce, and he really doesn't know a few other Chinese.

"President, do you want to deal with these Chinese people?"

"No need, they are just tools for us to use. We don't need to deliberately maintain a good relationship with them. As long as there is interest, they will take the initiative to cooperate with us instead of us looking for them."

"That's right, but, President, do you want to get acquainted with the people from the Imperial Chamber of Commerce over there? That's Zuoxu Sanyo from the Zuoxu Chamber of Commerce, that one is Haba Sanlang from Ha Jin Yangxing, that one..."

As Qian Zhongwu Teng introduced, Zhang Tianhao memorized them one by one. After all, he still had to memorize some people from the chamber of commerce, at least he might deal with them in the future.

"By the way, Qianzhong-kun, do you know what the purpose of this banquet is?"

"It is likely to be a material embargo against the Chinese government. After all, only ships from the empire and other countries can pass on the Yangtze River. Therefore, the empire wants to control the materials transported to the mainland, especially some important strategic materials."

He explained carefully, and then looked at Zhang Tianhao's expression.

It's just that Zhang Tianhao didn't change anything, but laughed.

"This doesn't seem to have any effect on us, does it?"

"Yes, even the control of transportation is only the control of the army, and we are taking the naval route. On the Yangtze River, they dare not check us, even the gendarmerie is the same. It's a pity that [-]% of the profits are paid to the naval logistics every year. place."

"Hehe, Mr. Qianzhong, you are thinking too much. The profit cannot be earned by our family. It is the kingly way for everyone to earn money together. We don't have the ability to eat alone. This is the best."

"That's true. If it wasn't for Mr. Qiandao's help, we might have to hand over [-]% of the net profit. Now, [-]% is quite good."

The Sanyuan Club founded by Zhang Tianhao has already opened up all the major traffic routes along the Yangtze River. Basically, their cargo transportation is quite safe in terms of safety.

The only Chamber of Commerce that emphasizes credibility and does not participate in politics.

As for the embargoed materials, or prohibited materials, Zhang Tianhao had emphasized before that they were not allowed to be transported at all. Now that Zhang Tianhao came back to take charge of the overall situation, he also began to smuggle a small amount of goods.

Therefore, the amount of the transaction was not large, and it did not attract the attention of the Japanese.

After all, not everyone can get through the relationship with the Japanese navy. Now that Zhang Tianhao has got through, the other Japanese can only stare blankly, and there is nothing they can do about it.

Of course, if it is a big chaebol, Zhang Tianhao is still far inferior, the difference is not a little bit.

"By the way, President, now we may have to set up a joint chamber of commerce to further strengthen the control of supplies. We must be careful when purchasing supplies in the future. For example, salt!"

"Material control, are other foreigners allowed?"

As soon as Zhang Tianhao heard it, he immediately understood that Qian Chongwu Teng was reminding himself, so he couldn't help asking in a low voice.

"What can you do if you don't allow it? Unless you buy it from the concession, but the things in the concession are bought from outside. They don't dare to completely violate the empire. Otherwise, you can trust the life of the people in the concession."

Zhang Tianhao couldn't help but nodded, as if he was in Tianjin. He was going to buy several thousand catties of salt for Qin Yuxiang, but when he went there last time, he found that he had to have an approval slip from the TJ city government to sell it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sell it at all. not for sale.

It’s just like the control of Xinjing Salt in the past. Each household is only allowed to buy one catty, and only one catty is allowed to buy at a time. I’m sorry, you have committed a crime.

"It seems that we have to prepare in advance!"

"Yes, the prices of food, salt, and even coal are increasing now. Because the transportation is a bit difficult, the prices of various materials are increasing. We have dispatched a large amount of coal through the Kuroda Branch in Tianjin, and now it is continuously flowing. Transporting coal from North China has allowed us to earn a lot of money."

"In addition, we have also transported a lot of table salt from North China. The salt there is much cheaper than ours. You can make a lot of money by transporting it here, or selling it to others halfway. So, President, don't I’m worried about the salt, but as for the fabric, there’s really nothing I can do. It’s a bit of a disadvantage to transport it from North China. It’s better to buy it locally.”

"In addition, our ships basically run around Shanghai, Nanjing, Tianjin, and Hangzhou. We also occasionally go to Wuhan and Chongqing. It is often very rewarding."
