Chapter 248: Big Customers
Zhu Muyun has never had an accident for the military commander, but he has never suffered a loss. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Originally, he was still thinking that if Deng Xiangtao agreed, he would be able to earn a few hundred yuan by equipping Guxing Station with two cars. In fact, Zhu Muyun felt that as long as Guxing Station established a regular company, everything could be solved.
"It's not that I don't let you make money, it's that the station is short of funds, and I really can't get the money." Deng Xiangtao said helplessly.
"Didn't Fu Ziqiang return all the money?" Zhu Muyun said.
"Don't talk about him, you should also be clear about the situation of Guxing Station now, it can be said that it is internal and external troubles, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be wiped out." Deng Xiangtao said.
After Fu Ziqiang came back, he had been in the basement of No. 295 Wangjiagang, and even if his body was fully recovered, he never came to the ground, and he was frightened. And the Political Security Bureau has been playing the idea of the Political Security Bureau.
"You want information from Ishimatsu Qiaoxiong, are you going to take action against him?" Zhu Muyun asked suddenly.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, you still don't understand this rule?" Deng Xiangtao said dissatisfied. The meeting between Liang Dexun and Shi Songqiao Xiong cannot be known by anyone except him. Not many people know about this matter, even in Chongqing. Once they negotiate, it will have a far-reaching impact on the anti-Japanese situation in Guxing.
"Well, I don't ask." Zhu Muyun said that he did not participate in specific actions, so Deng Xiangtao generally did not tell him the content of the actions. The more you know, the more dangerous it becomes.
"Anything else?" Deng Xiangtao asked.
"I want you to send someone to the police station to steal a few license plates for me." Zhu Muyun said that although he has not bought a car yet, he is already preparing for a car.
"You've thought it through." Deng Xiangtao nodded appreciatively, if the military commander wants to use a car, of course he can't use a real license plate. Otherwise, catch one by one.
"There are no cars at Guxing Station, and it's useless to ask for license plates, I have another role." Zhu Muyun said.
"That's not good, no matter how much I get back, I'll take half of it." Deng Xiangtao also learned Zhu Muyun's trick.
What else can Zhu Muyun say in the face of Deng Xiangtao's blatant interception.
"It's said that the blue is blue, but what do I think, it's still you who are scheming." Zhu Muyun said with a wry smile.
"Do you know Ye Mingze from Zhongjiang Industrial Bank?" Deng Xiangtao asked suddenly.
"I've dealt with you, what's wrong?" Zhu Muyun said that in order to rescue Gu Deming at that time, he had contact with Ye Mingze.
"Ye Mingze's father, Ye Pengzhong, will soon come to Guxing to serve as the military committee of the puppet Nanjing National Government and the director of the Guxing Pacification Office." Deng Xiangtao said that the mission of Guxing Station was to assassinate Ye Pengzhong.
The Pacification Office was a military command body, similar to the current provincial military subdivisions. The "appeasement director" is the chief officer, and his functions and powers are often intertwined with those of the provincial government. In other words, Guxing's institutions at all levels have one more "mother-in-law".
"So what?" Zhu Muyun asked, if the military commander wants to assassinate Ye Pengzhong, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
"So you need to walk around with Ye Mingze more in order to get close to Ye Pengzhong." Deng Xiangtao said.
"No problem." Zhu Muyun nodded, even if the military commander really wanted to assassinate Ye Pengzhong, he might not know about it.
Zhu Muyun visited two foreign automobile companies in the French Concession, Ford of the United States and Tie Xuelong of France. After comparing quality, price, and service, he finally preferred the American Ford. Knowing that he was going to order five Ford Y-type family cars at a time, the owner of the foreign company, a large American, Aiden, personally received him.
"Sir, you are really a discerning Chinese. Our Model A cars are also very good, would you like to have a few? "Aiden was a typical white American man, with blue eyes and white skin, tall and yellow hair. Although Zhu Muyun is very young and does not look like a Chinese businessman in his mind, in the current era, he can't look at his face.
"I prefer the Y-shape." Zhu Muyun said that the A-type car, boxy, not like a sedan, a bit like a jeep, does not have the feeling of a small car.
"In that case, I regret to inform you that the delivery time of the five Model Ys may be three months away, or even later. For the time being, we can only supply three Y-models, two of which have to be transferred from Shanghai. If you can buy two Type A, you can supply them all within a month. Aiden had to tell the truth, Guxing's customers rarely buy five cars at a time, and Chinese businessmen can buy one car, which is already very good.
The rule of foreign banks is to pay a part of the deposit first, and then pay the balance after the goods arrive. If Zhu Muyun wants all Y-shaped, it will be three months before the foreign bank receives the payment. If Zhu Muyun can ask for two Type A, he will be able to get back all the payment within a month.
"So if I want two Model A's, I'm doing you a favor?" Zhu Muyun said with a smile.
"Yes, I'd appreciate it if you could ask for two A-types." Aiden said sincerely.
"I want to know, is this foreign company of yours your own, or is it Ford?" Zhu Muyun asked.
"We're a Ford car, and of course it's my industry." Aiden proudly said that he was able to come to China to do business during the war, and in the eyes of many people, he was considered crazy. But risks and profits coexist, and only he knows the high profits of transporting cars from the United States to China to sell.
"Oh." Zhu Muyun was a little regretful, he came to see the car today, and there was another thing, and the most important thing: to help Osawa Tanijiro's mother and sister leave Japan.
"Did you disappoint?" Aiden said that he has been in China for several years and can not only speak Chinese fluently, but also judge other meanings from Chinese expressions.
"Nothing." Zhu Muyun sighed, if this is Ford's foreign company, presumably Japan also has it, and he may be able to contact Japan's Ford foreign company through Aiden, and directly let Osawa Tanijiro's family go to the United States.
"Sir, if you have anything to do, you can just say it, maybe I can help you." Aiden's enthusiastic person, Zhu Muyun is his largest private client at present, buying five cars at a time, except for government departments, Zhu Muyun is the first.
"I have two Japanese friends who want to go to the United States." Zhu Muyun said slowly.
"I see, as long as they can get a visa, it won't be a problem to go to the United States." Aiden thought it was a big deal, as long as he could afford the ferry ticket, it would not be difficult for the Japanese to get a U.S. visa. After all, Japan and the United States are not at war yet.
"Is it easy for Japanese people to get U.S. visas now?" Zhu Muyun asked.
"You're really asking the right person about this, I have a friend who works at the U.S. Embassy in Japan." Aiden smiled and said that he was happy to be able to help Zhu Muyun.
