Spy Wars: I signed in at the Military Police at the beginning
Chapter 21 Promotion
After arranging the affairs in the bureau, Zhou Ke, who signed in and got a container of bricks, went home and fell asleep. He had a beautiful dream. In the dream, he saw the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and the crowds cheering and celebrating on the streets.
Unfortunately, following a loud explosion, Zhou Ke, who had just joined the celebration team, was pulled back to reality by an earthquake-like shake.
This must be a big accident, Zhou Ke thought as he quickly got up and put on his clothes.
"Jingle Bell"
Just as Zhou Ke left the room, a hurried phone call rang in the living room, and soon a warrior on duty answered the call.
"Master, the explosion occurred at the Mitsubishi Corporation's dock. Although our dock is far away, it was also greatly affected." Seeing Zhou Ke coming to the hall, the warrior on duty quickly reported the situation heard on the phone.
"Did we suffer any casualties?"
"Two workers were injured by the falling goods, but they were minor injuries and not serious!"
"Jingle Bell"
Before Zhou Ke could ask anything else, the phone rang again. This time it was the Military Police Headquarters calling, informing Zhou Ke to go to the headquarters immediately and wait for dispatch.
Half an hour later, Zhou Ke, with a sleepy face, and his equally sleepy colleagues were waiting in the small meeting room of the Tokugawa Military Police for Major Tokugawa to attend an emergency meeting.
"Mr. Matsuda, I heard that the bomb happened at the Mitsubishi Wharf. I wonder if your wharf was affected?" Mao Li Hiromoto turned his head and whispered in Zhou Ke's ear.
"There were some impacts, but fortunately there were no casualties." From the moment he entered the door, Zhou Ke felt that this old guy seemed to have something to talk to him about, so he simply sat next to Mao Li Hiromoto.
"Then can your dock still be used normally?" Mao Li Hiromoto asked again.
"Of course. I think it will be fine to use it normally after some repairs tomorrow." His subordinates have already assessed the matter. The losses were mainly some fragile goods, and the normal use of the dock will not be greatly affected.
"That's good. I have a batch of good stuff arriving the day after tomorrow. I originally planned to unload it from the Nissin Wharf next to the Mitsubishi Company's wharf, but after what happened this time, I'm afraid their wharf won't be able to be used normally in the short term, so..."
"How much?" Zhou Ke asked before Mao Li finished speaking.
"We are comrades-in-arms, how can we talk about business right away? At most half of it!" Mao Li Hiromoto didn't expect Zhou Ke to be so straightforward.
"This is a bit difficult. The things you transport are not from a legitimate source, right?" Zhou Ke looked thoughtful and hesitant.
"10% is not enough. I haven't found a market for this product yet. It's still unclear whether I can make money."
"It seems like you don't have any trouble selling this thing. You got it before you found a market? Would you mind telling me something in advance?"
Zhou Ke didn't believe even a single punctuation mark when Mao Li Hiromoto said that the business was unprofitable. He knew that this old man next to him was a profit-seeking guy who would not do anything without it, and he would not do any business with a low return on investment.
"It's not that inconvenient. You should know my business. It's mainly about arms. This time I got a batch of grenade launchers with a slightly larger caliber. There are so many people who want this stuff!"
"A little bigger in caliber? How much bigger?" Zhou Ke keenly caught a hint of something unusual in Maori's words.
"Not much bigger, probably about 40 millimeters."
"Hey, Maori-kun, do you think it's appropriate to call this thing a grenade launcher?"
After Zhou Ke came to this world, he had some knowledge about the Japanese army's equipment. Normally, the caliber of the grenade launchers equipped by the army was mostly 50mm. The ones with a caliber of about 90mm as mentioned by Mao Li Hiromoto already belonged to the category of cannons.
"What's inappropriate about that? My brother-in-law's family runs a factory, so it's normal for his workers to make some large grenade launchers in their spare time. How about this, stop taking advantage of me, and I'll give you two for self-defense?"
"Forget it. This thing might end up in a military court. When the time comes, just take it away as soon as you unload the goods from my dock and don't cause me any more trouble." Although Zhou Ke wanted it very much, he still decisively refused.
"I'm serious, Matsuda-kun. If the military court works, everyone in this room will be shot for a few minutes. If you have a good sales channel, please introduce it to me. I can help you get some customers in the future, right? We can help each other."
As they were talking, Mao Li Hiromoto handed over a list from under the table. Zhou Ke opened it and took a quick look. There were all kinds of military supplies, from small military cans to large guns and cannons, except for the more strategically important airplanes, tanks and heavy artillery.
"I'll take the list, but I need to report this to my superiors first."
Zhou Ke silently refolded the list and put it in his trouser pocket. He felt that if the old devil Tokugawa agreed, this matter could still be done.
Mao Lihongyuan's weapons were not obtained legitimately, so he would definitely not sell them to the military. In this case, as long as they could make money, anyone would buy them.
Old Sun had mentioned before that the conditions for the comrades in the border areas were difficult. Although they had artillery, they did not have many good weapons. Now was a good opportunity.
"I understand. Please let me know if you need anything. This is a long-term business and I'm not in a hurry. If you buy from me in the future, I'll give you a price that is 20% cheaper than the market price." Seeing that Zhou Ke did not refuse, Mao Li Hongyuan generously gave a discount.
"By the way, Mr. Mori, have you ever been in the 4th Division before?" The 4th Division that Zhou Ke was referring to was the Osaka Division that became widely known in later generations.
"Yes, how did you know..."
Before Mao Li Hiromoto could finish his words, Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa, who had changed his military rank, walked into the meeting room happily with two orderlies.
"Stand up! Everyone, I have received a sad news." Tokugawa Yuichi forced down the corners of his mouth and continued in what he thought was a serious tone: "The explosion that just occurred at the Mitsubishi dock caused the Yoshino cargo ship anchored nearby to sink. The entire team of Imperial poison gas experts on board died. Let us observe three minutes of silence for the sacrifice of the Imperial elites!"
Half a minute, maybe even less.
"Okay, everyone, please be in high spirits. Now I will continue to announce a promotion news." Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa was the first to break the silent atmosphere.
"Matsuda Jinping, Yokoyama Isamu!"
"arrive!!"
"You two come to the front."
"Yes!!"
"The current situation is difficult. The two of you have outstanding comprehensive abilities in our department and have made significant contributions recently. Therefore, after research and decision by the headquarters, we have awarded you the rank of lieutenant. I hope you will continue to work hard and live up to the empire's expectations of you!"
After Tokugawa Yuichi finished speaking, he took the appointment certificate and new military rank from the orderly and handed them to Zhou Ke and the others personally.
"Yes, thank you for the Empire's trust in us!" Zhou Ke and the other man took the things and were not too excited.
Even the other team leaders in the conference room did not show any significant emotional changes. They just looked at Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa in silence, as if waiting for their boss to continue speaking.
"Ahem, the profit sharing ratio of the team's cooperative business remains the same. Everyone go back and organize their military affairs and prepare for the next investigation. Zhenping, you two come to my office, and the rest of you can adjourn!" Tokugawa Yuichi coughed twice and ended the meeting hastily.
"Captain is wise!"
"Congratulations, Matsuda-kun and Yokoyama-kun!"
"Would you two like to treat everyone to a meal?"
After hearing that the profit sharing ratio remained unchanged, the team leaders who valued getting rich more than promotion began to compliment the two colleagues who had just been promoted in the team.
The depressing atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became warm. As for the fact that all the poison gas experts died in battle, which was seriously disadvantageous to the empire, it had been thrown out of everyone's mind!
