Spy Wars: I signed in at the Military Police at the beginning

In Nagoya City, in an exquisitely and elegantly decorated tea room in the quaint Oshima family mansion.

"Senior Oshima, can we sit down and have a good talk now?" Zhou Ke said after taking the teacup handed over by General Taikubo and drinking it all.

"How dare you! I was once the Minister of Army of the Terauchi Cabinet! How dare you, a junior, be so rude to me! Do you have any respect for hierarchy?"

Lieutenant General Kenichi Oshima, who was already in his eighties and had only a few years left to live, felt a little breathless after watching Zhou Kezheng drinking the tea that he had collected for many years and regarded as a treasure like a cow chewing a peony!

He now wished he could immediately send someone to beat the other party until he vomited all the tea, but the subordinates standing behind the other party who were eyeing him covetously forced him to sit still.

"Old man, it's been so long since you stepped down as the Minister of the Army! Now we are lieutenant general against lieutenant general, how can there be any talk of superiority or inferiority?" Zhou Ke said, pointing to the stars on his military rank.

Lieutenant General was the end of Kenichi Oshima's career, but it was definitely not the end of his career. Moreover, in this country where the aristocracy ruled, it was obvious who had a more honorable status, a 30-year-old Lieutenant General or an 80-year-old Lieutenant General.

"Ahem, you... you are a member of the Matsudaira family, the inheritor of the Bushido spirit! Now that you are so disrespectful to your seniors, do you not intend to work in the Army Department?"

As an old retainer of the Choshu domain, Kenichi Oshima had never had a good impression of the Matsudaira family, which had now regained power with the help of the imperial family. Now he was even more angry when he saw Zhou Ke being so unreasonable.

"I'm sorry, old man. I took the wrong general's seal just now. Actually, I'm from the navy!" Zhou Ke said as he took out a navy-style general's seal engraved with the words "Shimazu Jinpei" from his pocket and placed it on the table.

"You..." Kenichi Oshima said "you" for a long time without saying anything. He looked at the general's seal that Zhou Kexin took out on the table and the unique military uniform of the soldier behind him and felt a little unbelievable.

"You two help the old man go back and have some rest first!" Seeing that his father was completely unable to suppress Zhou Ke's arrogance, Oshima Shigeru, the second son of Oshima Kenichi, hurriedly ordered two servants in the corner of the tea room to help Oshima Kenichi down.

Otherwise, if he had talked with Zhou Ke for a little longer, Kenichi Oshima might have died in this tea room today due to a burst blood vessel caused by high blood pressure.

"Matsu...Shimazu-kun, how about we discuss the requests you mentioned on the phone before?" Oshima Shigeru forced a smile on his face and asked Zhou Ke very politely.

"It would have been better if it had happened earlier. As a child, you really have no consideration for the elderly! Besides, I treated your old man to such good tea, how could he say that I was unreasonable!" Zhou Ke was not in a hurry at all and complained with some dissatisfaction.

The people he brought with him today had no connection with the army, and he would not show mercy to the Oshima family, which had some status in the army. If he delayed for one more second, more of the Oshima family's things would be moved away.

"Shimazu-kun, we may have had some misunderstandings before. The Oshima United's seizure of your convoy was not intentional."

"How about I ask my nephew to return the seized vehicles and supplies to you intact, and we are willing to pay three times the medical expenses of the injured?" Oshima Shigeru asked nervously.

Their family now has a huge funding gap due to some problems in business settlement, otherwise he would not dare to allow his nephew to blatantly rob the Matsudaira family's things.

"Okay, Mr. Taikubo, please send someone to notify the port and prepare some transport ships!" Zhou Ke nodded in agreement and instructed General Taikubo beside him.

"Shimazu-kun is so straightforward! Do you have any purchasing mission in our Nagoya city today? If so, I can help!" Oshima Shigeki was delighted when he saw Zhou Ke agreed so straightforwardly without mentioning any other conditions.

"Mr. Oshima, why do we need your help? You have already helped us the most!" Zhou Ke took another sip of tea and said to Oshima Shigeru with a smile.

"Shimazu-kun, we are just causing you trouble, not helping you at all! I think this tea tastes good to you, take some with you when you leave later!"

Oshima Shigeru was relieved. As long as Zhou Ke didn't mess with their family, they would try to get some funds through other channels. After overcoming the current difficulties, the Oshima family's business would be revitalized again!

"Mr. Oshima, you are wrong. Without the goods in your warehouse, how can I settle accounts with the Ministry of the Army?" Zhou Ke felt that the man in front of him was somewhat clueless.

They robbed his goods and injured his people, but he still naively thinks that he can settle the matter by returning the goods and paying some medical expenses!

"Shimazu-kun, what do you mean?" When Oshima Shigeru heard Zhou Ke talking about the goods in the warehouse, his heart tightened. Those goods were the basis for their Oshima family to rise again.

"Aren't there still more than 600 tons of military supplies in your warehouse that are needed to supply the troops? I'll make up for it and send it to the Army Department!"

"Of course you don't have to thank me. After all, helping you sell goods is helping myself!" Zhou Ke explained with a smile.

"Shimazu-kun, since you have helped us to complete the task, it has saved our Oshima family from further trouble. Now let's talk about the profit..."

Oshima Shigeru's anxious heart was temporarily put at ease. In this way, although his family would earn less, they would no longer have to go to such great lengths to raise funds.

"What's the point of sharing? That batch of goods was your compensation to me. What does the proceeds from my selling it to the Ministry of the Army have to do with your family?" Zhou Ke asked with a surprised look on his face.

"Shimazu-kun, you must not be kidding! The Army Department is not owned by your family. Without our Oshima family to negotiate, even if you ship all the goods over, they won't accept them!"

Oshima Shigeru sneered in his heart. The waters in the Army Department are very complicated. It is not so easy for a young boy to get involved!

"Sorry, I have reduced the price by 50%, and they are planning to change suppliers!" Zhou Ke said calmly.

His 50% discount is not just for the goods of the Oshima family, but also for all future goods he supplies. As for why he can still do it with a 50% discount, it is not for outsiders to understand!

"You are going to use defective products to harm the imperial soldiers! How could those people in the Army Department agree to you?"

Oshima Shigeru's attention at this time is no longer just on the stolen goods. As a second-generation military man who grew up in a military family, he is now more concerned about the inferior products that will harm soldiers in the future.

"What inferior product! That's the normal price reduction after the production line was optimized and upgraded! How can you slander others!" Zhou Ke said with some displeasure.

Those junk products would be concentrated on the Kwantung Army, which was not very obedient and had its own system. As long as the appearance was acceptable, the bureaucrats in the Army Department would sacrifice product quality to increase profit margins.

"Sir, all the sixteen properties of the Oshima family that can be taken away have been packed and loaded onto the ship!" General Taikubo came back to report.

"Very good, now that the matter has been dealt with, Oshima-kun, we will leave first. The aftermath work in Nagoya will be left to you! Please!"

Zhou Ke stood up and bowed to Oshima Shigeru in a very solemn manner. Then, without waiting for the other party's reaction, he turned around and left the tea room with his men who had already packed the tea.
