Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

Yuan Ye looked around and felt that this trading company was quite large. A man who looked like an employee came forward and saw the young man in a suit and tie with an extraordinary demeanor. He asked enthusiastically:

"Hello sir, how can I help you?"

"I'm from Shanghai. My name is Sato Neiji. I want to talk to your president about business matters."

Yuan Ye smiled.

"Okay, Mr. Sato, please follow me."

Yuan Ye followed him into an office. The clerk came to a middle-aged fat man behind the desk and said:

"President, this Mr. Sato is from Shanghai and wants to discuss business with you."

The middle-aged man immediately stood up and walked towards Yuan Ye, smiling broadly, and said politely:

"Mr. Sato, please take a seat. My name is Nomura Jiro, and I am the president of Nomura Trading Company. How can I help you?"

I thought, this man's surname is Sato, he must be from the Sato family, a noble family. I wonder what business he is here to discuss?

Yuan Ye was not polite and sat down on the sofa. Nomura Jiro sat opposite him. Yuan Ye smiled and said:

“I came to Suzhou this time to investigate the market environment here and to look for partners. I heard that your company is very big, so I came to visit you.

I have a batch of in-demand goods that I want to ship here to sell. I heard that the price here is twice that of Shanghai. I want to find a suitable buyer here. The price is negotiable. I wonder if President Nomura is interested?"

"Of course I'm interested. To be honest, my goods also come from Shanghai. I wonder what price Mr. Sato can give me? If the price is right, I'm willing to cooperate."

"I can supply you with the product at 5% off the retail price, what do you think?"

This is a very tempting price. Yuan Ye has learned about the market situation and knows that the wholesale price of the in-demand goods from Shanghai is generally around 6% off.

As expected, Nomura Jiro was moved and said happily:

"Okay, it's a deal. As long as you can get the hot stuff, I'll eat it."

I thought that as long as the goods were in short supply, I could get them at a 6% discount and then distribute them to the surrounding counties and cities, especially those near northern Jiangsu. The price would be doubled and the profit would be much higher than in Suzhou.

With his own distribution network and personal connections, there is no problem at all. What worries him is the lack of sufficient sources of scarce materials. He can get some of them with his own abilities, but it is far from enough.

His inner thoughts were heard clearly by Yuan Ye, who had just activated the ability to eavesdrop on others' thoughts.

I thought, can I use him to send people to Gaoyou? Maybe by using his connections, my truck won't need to be inspected.

He decided to give it a try.

"The supply is no problem for me, but I have something here that I would like to ask you for help."

"As long as I can help, that's totally fine."

Nomura Jiro said cheerfully.

"It's like this. I came from Shanghai to Suzhou in a friend's car. My friend brought a truckload of goods, which included some in-demand goods. I actually sold them to him.

This batch of goods was wanted by a customer in Gaoyou. The profit was very good, so I asked him to deliver it to Gaoyou.

Who knew that we would encounter strict inspections just after leaving Shanghai? This batch of in-demand goods is somewhat sensitive, you should also know that, otherwise there would not be such a high profit. "

Nomura Jiro thought, how could he not know? He could only sell sensitive and scarce materials at a good price in Gaoyou. It was precisely because it was close to the New Fourth Army base in northern Jiangsu that he could make a high profit, which was unmatched by other places.

He just needs to sell the goods to local merchants. He doesn't care where the goods will eventually go. As long as he can make money, that's all that matters.

Yuan Ye thought to himself, it turns out that businessmen only care about profit.

He continued:

“Luckily I had connections at the Shanghai checkpoint, and I had a special pass, so my friend’s truck passed through customs without inspection.

After arriving in Suzhou, my friend heard that the checkpoint to Gaoyou was more stringent, so he became a little worried. If the goods were discovered at the checkpoint and confiscated, the loss would be huge.

He asked me for help, but I had no connections in Gaoyou, so I couldn't be of any help, and my special pass might not be useful.

I think maybe President Nomura has a solution. With such a big business, you must have connections in this area, so there shouldn’t be any problem.”

Jiro Nomura thought, so this is it. Indeed, starting from the past two days, the inspection of goods sent to Gaoyou has been stricter than before. Not only the goods, but also the people entering and leaving are strictly inspected.

Even if you have a special pass, it may not be useful.

But for him, it was not a big deal. He had already bought off the checkpoint connecting Suzhou to Gaoyou, and he would share a portion of the profits with them every month. The goods of his trading company had always been unimpeded. Even though the inspections were very strict in the past two days, they were only for other people, and his goods remained the same.

It's Mr. Sato's friend's car, so there's absolutely no problem with just saying hello yourself.

Nomura Jiro smiled and said:

“The inspection is indeed very strict this time. As far as I know, the crackdown on the Red Party base is about to begin.

But Mr. Sato, since you have asked, I will naturally help you. Don't worry about this matter, I will take care of it.

Tell me the license plate number and I'll write you a note saying it's my cargo. I have some connections at the checkpoints and I'll call them and tell them. There shouldn't be any problem."

“Okay, President Nomura is indeed a straightforward person. I was right. It will definitely be a pleasure to cooperate with you in the future.

After I return, I will immediately send you a batch of needed supplies. I hope our business will grow bigger and bigger."

Yuan Ye thought that he had found the right place by coming to Nomura Trading Company this time. Not only could he get the people there safely, but he also opened up a sales channel. Although these goods were sold to Nomura Trading Company, they eventually flowed to northern Jiangsu, so he didn't have to worry about any risks.

In fact, Jiro Nomura also knew where these goods would eventually go, but because of the huge temptation of profits, he didn't care about so much. Whether he was aiding the enemy or not, for a businessman, making money was the most important thing.

Yuan Ye told him the license plate number, but it didn’t matter if he told him, because the license plate number was fake.

Jiro Nomura wrote a note and made a phone call in front of Yuan Ye.

Finally, the two chatted about the details of the cooperation and payment methods, signed the agreement, and then Yuan Ye said goodbye and left. Nomura Jiro accompanied him to the door of the trading company.

Gu Yan, who was sitting in the car, was very worried. Yuan Ye had been gone for an hour and he hadn't come back yet. He didn't know what he had been doing. Did he run into trouble?

Only when he saw Yuan Ye approaching from afar did he feel relieved.
