Spy Wars: Return of the Red Luan

Chapter 89: Building the Architecture

This was a joint decision made by Aoki Qiao after discussing with Lao Zhao and Mio, and then consulting the organization and obtaining its approval.

Instead of allowing the Japanese to infiltrate continuously, and a lot of that infiltration was done in the dark, both the Special Operations Group and the later Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics and the Military Bureau of Investigation and Statistics suffered countless losses here, so it is better to make you transparent!
What about the Lan Agency and the Bamboo Agency? There should just be the Aoki Agency. Don't use any others. An open Aoki Agency is secretly controlled by our own people. This is better than a bunch of spy agencies completely hidden in the dark!
You Japanese spies collect intelligence and compile it, and as long as our comrades hide among them, what's yours is mine! What's mine is still mine!

At this moment, everyone's eyes on Qing Mu Qiao changed immediately! From contempt, disdain, jealousy, etc., they turned into seriousness!

You have earned the right to communicate with us on an equal footing! In this way, the colonel rank on Qing Mu Qiao's shoulders is not so glaring.

"Nephew Aoki, come here and tell us your thoughts in detail! Miyazaki, go close the door! Have the guards outside. No one here is allowed to leak any of the content of this meeting!"

Miyazaki Shuichi was very excited and went to call the guard, then came back to close the door. He was able to take advantage of Aoki Qiao and enter the planning and decision-making level!
"My three uncles, look, I want to refer to the model of my grandfather's Aoki Agency and establish a new Aoki Agency in Shanghai first. The Aoki Agency and the Aoki chain of pharmacies will be combined into one!" Aoki Qiao said as he gestured.

"I'm responsible for the expansion and distribution of the pharmacy, and Mio is responsible for the assignment of intelligence personnel and summary analysis!"

"Each pharmacy has two managers, we call them the visible manager and the hidden manager! The visible manager is responsible for daily drug sales and financial accounts, while the hidden manager is responsible for assigning tasks to the fast-paced intelligence personnel and compiling intelligence. The compiled intelligence is promptly reported to the head office! The head office reports to the headquarters every day!"

"Manager Ming, please use your own people from the Fujiwara family, the Shimazu family, the Saito family, and the uncles' families!"

Qing Mu Qiao flattered them appropriately and offered a benefit to everyone, saying that they could arrange for the young talents in their families to join them! They would help them make money together! The key point was that they could make money and achieve merit at the same time, killing two birds with one stone!
Everyone's eyes lit up! Wow! So many unemployed nephews at home can be arranged! In the whole of Shanghai, and even in the whole of East China, how many shopkeepers can be arranged? After arranging the relatives, can we arrange the neighbors? Can we earn some commission?

"Aoki is thoughtful!" Nagata Tetsuzan was very satisfied. It might also be because he heard that Aoki Takashi did not forget to bring the Saito family with him, and Nagata Tetsuzan's resentment towards Aoki Takashi was basically gone.

"We mentioned the Ming Shopkeeper earlier, now let's talk about the An Shopkeeper. This An Shopkeeper needs to have intelligence capabilities, so we can only arrange it at the headquarters! Students from the Army University and the Army Academy will be given priority."

"In the end, it was all about running fast. I originally wanted to use soldiers from various units, but I thought that would be too obvious and I was afraid that the Republic of China military and police would not be happy."

"So I think that at this level, we only need low-level people who can run and don't talk nonsense! We can consider recruiting among overseas Chinese, or we can let the gangs of the Republic of China arrange it, such as the Qing Gang in Shanghai. In this way, the gang power in Shanghai can also be controlled by the Empire!"

"Yoshi! Aoki, this is a truly brilliant design! We must quickly finalize it and report it to the Emperor and the Cabinet, so we can implement it as soon as possible!"

The more Okamura Neiji listened, the more excited he became. During his time in Shanghai, he had a good relationship with the Green Gang boss, and this time they could all be put to good use! This plan was perfect!
"How about we give this plan a name, the Medicine Plan?"

"Uncle, don't get excited. Aoki hasn't finished yet! The last piece is the protection of the entire pharmacy and intelligence personnel. I saw many ronin in Shanghai who are unemployed. We can recruit ronin from the empire to serve the country and be responsible for protecting the security of the empire's property and intelligence!"

"As for the name of the plan, my three uncles, please come up with one. I want to use my grandfather's Aoki Agency as the agency. I want to continue my grandfather's agency and continue to serve the empire!" After Aoki Qiao finished speaking, he looked at Obata Toshishiro across from him, thinking, "You damn fat guy, I will fight you on equal terms and not let your fat guy agency enter Shanghai! I will also nibble away at your share of North China step by step!"

"The ronin in Shanghai? Don't those ronin work? What were they doing when you saw them, Aoki?"

Nagata Tetsuzan's words made Aoki Qiao excited! Here he comes! My little preparation was not wasted, he knows the ronin's mission!

"I saw them in the Imperial Expatriate Community in Hong Kong. They didn't seem to have jobs. Uncle Nagata, do you know them? Ah, if it's a secret mission, then don't tell me."

"It's nothing, actually. The Navy Shipyard sent them to Ningbo, the Republic of China, to find shipbuilders, and they actually stayed in Shanghai!"

Aoki Qiao couldn't respond to this. But it at least revealed two pieces of information. First, their mission had nothing to do with him. So their captain, Togo Naotada, was most likely the ronin from the Shigen-ryu!
He must have seen me by accident, and something about me was accidentally exposed. Togo Naotada was very confident, so he planned to kill me directly!
The second piece of information is that the Japanese Navy may have a big move, to build big ships or a large number of ships, so it has to go to Ningbo to find shipbuilding experts or bring more shipbuilding workers to Japan!
I couldn't respond to this question, nor could I ask any more questions. If I asked again, it would be like inquiring about the navy's information.

"My three uncles, Miyazaki-kun, you guys should sort out and perfect the plan first. I just came back and came to the headquarters first, but I haven't gone back to report yet. I'll go back and tell the Duke that I'm safe first!"

"Hey! My father-in-law is my father-in-law, and he even calls me Duke, haha!"

"Hey, excuse me!"

Evacuate quickly.

After returning to his father-in-law's house, Aoki Qiao briefly reported his thoughts to Duke Fujiwara. The Duke was now more and more pleased with his son-in-law!

I will report this plan to the Emperor before the Ministry of War!
Chen Jiehua thought about it and decided, forget it, why don’t we go together and wait for the Emperor to summon the Shimazu family and other families to discuss the matter together, so that I don’t have to run from house to house and explain to them one by one, which will make my mouth dry!

In the end, the Emperor convened the cabinet, several major families, and the heads of the Ministry of Army, Ministry of Navy, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, etc. to discuss and determine the plan and direction on the spot.

Article 1: The plan is named the "Imperial Medicine Plan" and is under the joint jurisdiction of the House of Lords and the Cabinet.

The bigwigs argued for a long time about the ownership of this plan. The Army Department believed that Aoki Qiao came from the Army, and the entire plan was centered on Aoki Qiao, so it naturally came under the jurisdiction of the Army Department.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs believes that foreign economic strategies are within the scope of its responsibilities and should naturally be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has its own intelligence agencies and does not need your Ministry of the Army!
　Even if the protagonist didn't arrange for this kind of infiltration by secret services, the devils in history would have been arranging it in succession, causing great damage to our country, so we might as well let them move from the shadows to the open and catch them in our own hands. The unknown is the most terrifying.
