Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    While they were chatting, they saw the few people in front of them walking in.

    The leaders sat on the round table in the center of the table. Unlike Zhang Tianhao and the others who sat at the back, Kodama also walked in with a serious look on his face.

    It seems that his health is almost better, and his face has become a little rosy.

    "Cough cough cough!"

    As Kodama coughed a few times, the entire meeting of nearly fifty people slowly fell silent.

    And he also glanced around at the various Japanese businessmen sitting here, and then put a document on the table.

    And his secretary also stepped aside, preparing to record the content of this meeting.

    "Everyone, we invite you to come here this time for two things. The first thing is about your own safety. Now that the Chinese are becoming more and more rampant, I have ordered that all imperial agents and secret service agencies in Shanghai  , our Chamber of Commerce agencies are going all out to hunt down Chinese agents."

    "So, everyone can rest assured that our strike force will be unprecedentedly powerful. Those who dare to provoke the empire can only use their blood to write the empire's medals."

    "According to the intelligence we have received, we have begun a targeted and planned crackdown. Everyone can relax and do their work for the time being."

    ¡°Bah bang bang!¡±

    There were bursts of applause in the venue, and this was the best news that everyone had heard.

    He pressed his hands softly, and then fell silent again.

    "The second thing is that the empire needs everyone's efforts. After all, when everyone enjoys the convenience brought by the empire, they should also contribute to the empire. The second thing is that the empire needs to make another contribution."

    "This is a list, and a donation plan has been drawn up for everyone, but don't worry, this is borrowed by the empire from your major chambers of commerce!"

    "What, we need to borrow money again, let's borrow the money we got!"

    "President, this is making things difficult for us. We can hardly even eat now. If we continue to borrow money like this, our Chamber of Commerce will really be empty."

    "President, can you mention this matter to the superiors? If we go to borrow money now, even if we want to borrow it, we will be unable to do so!"

    When Kodama just finished speaking,

    "Everyone, you are all the elites of the empire, how could you put the empire at risk for a little money!" Kodama saw it and had to say loudly.

    "President, it's not that we don't want to borrow. Our Chamber of Commerce has loaned half a million yuan since last year, and we haven't seen the money yet. How can we borrow it?"

    "Yes, we have already lent more than 600,000 yuan. If we borrow more, our Chamber of Commerce will collapse. If we continue to borrow more, we will have no way to come up with the money."

    "Yes, President, you also know our situation. The Imperial Military Department placed an order for us, but we didn't see the money for a while. This makes us unable to do business without even costing money."

    Zhang Tianhao did not speak, but quietly watched everyone's performances and complaints, and even watched them arguing loudly, and he felt helpless in his heart.

    "Well, the empire is in some economic difficulties now, but you believe that the empire will definitely give you an explanation."

    "This time, in order to borrow military expenses for a while, the empire will once again give you a certain discount. The chamber of commerce that lent the money will be exempt from tax for one year from now on. I believe everyone knows how much tax is for one year!"

    "Your annual tax is not a small amount, and everyone can clearly distinguish the benefits. This is the support given to you by the empire."

    Kodama had to tell them their conditions.

    "President, I would like to ask. My club has been loaned 1.056 million yen by the empire in two years. This is almost the majority of our income for two years. If our taxes are reduced and exempted, what will our club be like?"  It seems that my ability can¡¯t make up for this loophole!¡±

    At this time, Zhang Tianhao also stood up, raised his hands and said loudly.

    "Our income last year was only around 800,000 yuan, but there were various aspects of management. The net income was less than 200,000 yuan, and it was more than 1 million yuan. Our five-year net income, this money, is not something we don't want.  Borrowing, but because I am powerless, besides, the Chamber of Commerce still needs a lot of funds to operate, which is a bit difficult!"

    "It turns out to be Mihara-kun. I believe the empire will repay your loan. However, the imperial soldiers on the front line are still fighting. As long as we win, this money will definitely not be lost to everyone. Please forgive me.  "

    Kodama was stunned when she heard this, but she immediately answered.

    ??"Is there anything else?"

    "It's like this. I have been assassinated five times in Shanghai and during my trip to Hong Kong. I hope the empire can solve this problem as soon as possible. Otherwise, I won't even dare to go out now. If this continues, our Chamber of Commerce will also  There¡¯s no way it¡¯s going to work properly!¡±

    He just mentioned it to express his personal dissatisfaction, and did not make too many statements in this regard. Everyone is not a fool, but we still cannot give in in terms of interests.

    Kodama saw Zhang Tianhao sit down and made no other demands. He also knew that Zhang Tianhao had given him face, but he also knew that the profits of some of the luxury goods smuggled by Zhang Tianhao would definitely not be low.

    As for more than one million, I feel that Zhang Tianhao doesn¡¯t take it seriously.

    The hardest currency now is naturally food, coal and the like. As for coal and the like, Zhang Tianhao really has no choice here.

    That is a commodity that several large chambers of commerce have an almost monopoly on, but food can be purchased in small quantities.

    In terms of grain, his club has started to do business, but the volume is not large, and purchase points have not been set up in various places. After all, purchase points are not so easy to establish.

    ¡°Everyone, this is the list, let¡¯s take a look!¡±

    Soon the list was sent directly to everyone, and Zhang Tianhao also had a copy.

    "What, this time it's 300,000 yuan again. This is too much, why not sell me!"

    "I also have 250,000, President, why are there so many!"

    "Yes, President, you also need to understand our difficulties. We can't always lend out like this. We really don't have much money now. Borrow again. This time I plan to go home and there is no way to drive anymore.  "

    Each of the businessmen was also upset, but Kodama above was also helpless, but her eyes were quite firm.

    "Okay, this meeting is actually to tell everyone about this. Starting now, I hope that this part of the loan will be sent here within three days, or deposited in the bank. After all, the frontline war is urgent and there cannot be any  delay."

    Zhang Tianhao looked at the 300,000 yen in his hand and was speechless for a while. The money was gone after he lent it, which made his face look quite ugly. Although it was only a small number, three  One hundred thousand, which is equivalent to one hundred thousand US dollars, but it is also a considerable amount of money.

    "Interesting, is there a big problem in Japan's domestic economy that would make the military department in Shanghai ask them to donate money?"

    After thinking for a while, he really couldn¡¯t think of anything and could only give up. This amount of money could be offset by supplies, but he also understood that he had to do it even if he didn¡¯t do it.

    "We have to find a way to get this money back, damn it!"

    He cursed secretly, and then left the chamber of commerce helplessly with everyone.

    "Mihara-kun, what are you going to do this time?"

    "There is no way. As long as you are still in Shanghai, we must give the empire an explanation, unless you leave Shanghai and develop elsewhere, but where else can it be safe now?"

    He glanced at the businessman in Shangcun, also had a sad face, and sighed helplessly.

    "Damn it, they are always asking for money from small chambers of commerce like us. Those big chambers of commerce have assets many times ours and only pay so little. Isn't this clearly bullying us?"

    "Then can you defeat them?"

    ¡°I can¡¯t explain it, but I still feel very uncomfortable. I want to sue this matter to China!¡±

    "If it works, then it will be fine. It's a waste of time! It's better to think of a way to make more money!" Zhang Tianhao glanced at him, and then turned to leave.

    Sun Xinxin followed him and understood the purpose of this meeting. She was also a little aggrieved, but she couldn't have any dissatisfaction. After all, she was just a secretary.

    "Mihara-kun, let's go have a drink. I'm in a bad mood today, damn the Chamber of Commerce!" Uemura cursed and then suggested.

    ¡°No, it¡¯s not safe, let¡¯s go back, safety first!¡± (Remember this site¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
