Chapter 1105 Full support
Hearing Yuzhi Imai’s inquiry, Wen Hao did not hide it. He nodded and said, “Secretary, you also know that the stall on No. 21 is getting bigger and bigger and more difficult now, and the Zhenhua Academy that was opened before is a bit unsustainable, so I am preparing to raise some funds and then think about thinking about ways to do business.”
The "Zhenhua Academy" mentioned by Wen Hao is actually the militarized force he formed. Its nature is exactly the same as the Juchuan Academy formed by Ding Mo. They are both directly obeying Wen Hao's direct armed forces. This army is well-equipped and well-trained, and Wen Hao has invested a lot in this.
Now the scale of No. 21 has expanded very rapidly. In just half a year, two areas in the east and west have been opened, one is located in Yanjiaqiao in the east of the city and the other is located in Chaotian Palace in the west of the city. The scale is also quite large, and the funds required are by no means small. This has made Wen Hao's funds in his hands very short.
The funds allocated by the pseudo-government are naturally limited. Zhou Fushan's character has always been difficult to talk about, so the No. 76 route has always been on the No. 21, relying on the mountains to eat and water to eat. It is also maintained through extortion of wealthy businessmen or criminals, as well as some gray income. Of course, Yushi Imai strongly supports Wen Hao in terms of materials, weapons, and management authority.
But these are still far from enough. Wen Hao thought of just running a business and making profits by himself, but he was not good at doing business and had no business talents under his command, so he remembered the way to borrow chickens to lay eggs.
He used various means to coerce and induce others, and even directly robbed them. In a short time, he embezzled and controlled some commercial banks and shops in the east of the city and formed a business association called "Xingzhong". Although they were nominally other people's businesses, they were actually Wen Hao's industries.
Although his methods were rough, the effect was obvious. Soon the funds he needed were solved, which allowed Wen Hao to taste the sweetness. So during this period, he was ready to take action to expand the scale of Xingzhong Business Association.
When Yuzhi Imai heard Wen Hao speak out loudly, he frowned and said unhappily: "Your funding is indeed difficult. I know this, but the noise is too big. Kamao Keichi, the president of Nanjing Fujiwara Company, had already looked for me a few days ago and said that you were interested in acquiring Huaji Rubber Business and forcing Boss Luo to hand over the shares of the business.
Do you know? Huaji Rubber Business is now the next home of Fujiwara Company. President Kamao found me and asked me to warn you not to harass Boss Luo again in the future.”
When Wen Hao heard this, he couldn't help but secretly complain that Huaji Rubber Business is one of the top major companies in Nanjing that operate the rubber industry. The industry profits are very generous. In Wen Hao's eyes, it is definitely a coveted treasure pot.
Boss Luo, the major shareholder of the business, used to rely on the background of the reform government, but now his backer has lost momentum in this government restructuring, and this rubber business has become a piece of fat that many hungry wolves like.
So Wen Hao started planning and finally found the weakness of Boss Luo, the major shareholder of the business, carefully designed a trap to attract him and forced Boss Luo to sell the shares of the business he had. Seeing that the matter was about to be done, he did not expect that Boss Luo simply defected to the Japanese and cleared the relationship to Yuzhi Imai. This time, he was afraid that the design would be lost.
"Secretary, this is a rare opportunity. If we can swallow it, at least the rubber industry in Nanjing will win half of the land. The benefits are too great. It is a pity to let go like this. As for Fujiwara, we should give them a lot of benefits. Can we also give them the current home? Do you communicate with President Kamao?"
Wen Hao really couldn't bear to swallow the fat meat he had to eat. Thinking of Yuzhi Imai supporting him again, Yuzhi Imai's face suddenly became gloomy.
This time, Boss Luo was able to persuade the president of Fujiwara to speak, which was not as simple as mentioned above. I didn’t know how many benefits he had made secretly. With Fujiwara’s style, I’m afraid that this Huaji rubber business has become the one in Fujiwara’s pocket. Wen Hao was blinded by the desire for profit in front of him, and he even wanted to compete with Fujiwara. He was simply obsessed with money and was confused!
"I warn you not to think about Boss Luo anymore. Fujiwara Company is domineering in the business world, and it is impossible for them to withdraw the industry they are interested in.
Also, President Kamao asked me to tell you that in the Nanjing business community, other commercial organizations are not allowed to threaten the status of Fujiwara Society. Your Xingzhong Chamber of Commerce has attracted his attention.
Fortunately, I have made it clear to him that the scale of Xingzhong Chamber of Commerce will not be expanded any longer. At most, it will maintain its current scale. You must stop at the right time and not be too ugly. Otherwise, he will definitely point his finger at you. You know the background of Fujiwara Club. If he really sues Mr. Fujiwara, it will be troublesome!"
Yuzhi Imai really supported Wen Hao very much, otherwise he would not have won such conditions for Wen Hao, and at least he would have guaranteed the immediate interests of the Xingzhong Chamber of Commerce.
When Wen Hao heard Yuzhi Imai say this, he knew that there was no hope for this matter, and even his plan to continue to expand the Xingzhong Chamber of Commerce was dashed. He couldn't help but complain, but the situation was uncontrollable. Even if his strength has increased significantly and he has expanded again, he still knew the gap between him and the giant Fujiwara Society. If he really angered the other party, Mr. Fujiwara could knock himself back to his original form with just one word, and even be doomed.
Wen Hao nodded helplessly and agreed, "Yes, I understand, I will not act recklessly anymore!"
Yuzhi Imai knew what Wen Hao was thinking, and knew that he was unwilling to accept it. To be on the safe side, he said again: "You have to know the importance. Now Mr. Fujiwara is in Nanjing. He has been walking frequently with Commander-in-Chief Nishio, General Sakagaki and other senior military officials. I think he seems to have plans to stay in Nanjing for a long time. You have to know the measure. President Kamo and I can still talk, but it is difficult for me to speak with President Fujiwara. If something goes wrong, I can't protect you!"
Wen Hao heard that Yuzhi Imai was so nervous and hurriedly promised that he would never touch any of the interests of Fujiwara Society, which made Yuzhi Imai feel relieved.
At this time, Wen Hao changed his words and said, "I have another thing I want to ask you."
"Tell me!"
Wen Hao organized some words and continued: "Although we have swept the Military Commission and the Central Commission for the Organization in Nanjing before, you have also seen it, and they have quickly rebuilt. Shen Le, the new district mayor of the Central Commission for Suzhou and Shanghai, is my former boss. I have been looking for his traces during this period, but he is too cautious and has made no progress yet. However, I heard that there is a man in the Shanghai Special Agents Headquarters, named Luo Jiana. This person has been Shen Le's confidant before. He has been working with Shen Le for a long time and is very familiar with Shen Le and the people around him. I want to transfer Luo Jiana to me to assist me in tracing the Central Commission for the time being."
After hearing this, Yuzhi Imai thought about it and said, "Where is your source of information? How do you know about Rojana?"
Wen Hao had a long time ago to say this and quickly explained: "You also know that when I left Shanghai, some old subordinates of the detective office were not taken away, and they deliberately kept their eyes and ears at the agent headquarters. Moreover, Luo Jiana had been arrested for many days, so some things still couldn't be hidden from me. Section Chief, this person who stayed at the agent headquarters had no intelligence value, but it was of great use to me when he was transferred to Nanjing. Now Li Zhiqun is extremely hating about me, so he had to ask the section chief to say something to me!"
Yuzhi Imai was very clear about Wen Hao's situation. This person is smart and experienced in dealing with things. It is not surprising that he can do this. So he nodded and agreed, "Okay, this matter is easy to handle. I will call Li Zhiqun to ask for someone, and he will not dare to refuse."
Wen Hao's eyes rolled, and then asked softly: "Secretary, I heard that since Li Zhiqun took over as the Minister of Police, his life has not been easy. He is very isolated in the Nanjing government and is rejected by him. Do you think he, the Minister of Police, can be regarded as the Minister of Police for a long time?"
"Why, are you interested in competing?" Yuzhi Imai looked at Wen Hao with a smile on his face.
"Secretary, I joined the empire much earlier than Li Zhiqun. I asked myself about my ability and loyalty, and I was not inferior to him. He could take the agent route and become the Minister of Police. I have no reason. Besides, his power is in Shanghai and Nanjing..."
"Okay!" Yuzhi Imai waved his hand and interrupted him. He knew that Wen Hao was seeking his support and trying to replace him with Li Zhiqun. In fact, Yuzhi Imai also wanted to support Wen Hao, which was also good for him.
But he knew very well that his influence was far from being enough to accomplish this, and he spoke, "I know that Li Zhiqun was quite rejected in the Nanjing government, but this is not important. What is important is that he has the support of General Yingzuo behind him, and the position of this police minister is as stable as Mount Tai, but your idea is not unreasonable. I think you can find a minister's title to transition, and you may have a chance in the future!"
Suddenly he seemed to think of something and continued, "I heard that this turmoil was almost affected by Mr. Fujiwara. Several generals of the military went to visit and condolences. When I was in Shanghai, I had contacted Mr. Fujiwara several times. Finally, I was old. This time I was about to take this opportunity to visit. You should go with me too. If you can get his recognition, your development in Nanjing will be much smoother in the future."
"That's great, thank you for your support!" Wen Hao was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly bowed his head.
