Spy game? Stop guessing, I really am an undercover agent!

Chapter 44 Let's make a plan!
Chen Yang nodded slightly, picked up the list of Tongji Office staff members on the table, and slowly glanced at everyone before saying, "Now that everyone has no questions, I will arrange your work."

"Which one of you is Gao You?"

A man in his thirties stepped forward from the crowd, bowed, and said, "Commander Chen, I am Gao You."

Chen Yang sized up the other person and said, "Go and liaise with the first department to be responsible for the collection and transportation of supplies."

Then Chen Yang randomly selected someone named Li Chengliang and asked him to connect with the second department.

The remaining two are named Zhao Wenbin and Qian Kuan.

After some consideration, Chen Yang assigned one person to liaise with the General Affairs Department and the other to liaise with the Dispatch Center.

After all the work for the four people was arranged, Chen Yang looked at the list and said, "Director Chu has had an accident, and Deputy Director Xie has his own things to do. I think the office needs a new leader."

"Alright, let Feng Jian temporarily take over Xie's position. You all focus on your own tasks."

"Does anyone have any further questions?"

What? That janitor who's the lowest-ranking guy in the office, what kind of incredible luck did he have to get promoted to deputy director on his first day of work?
Amidst the envy and jealousy, everyone felt a surge of admiration, for this one sentence saved others years of hard work.

From clerk to leader, that's a huge gap, yet he crossed it so easily.
God must be blind.
At this moment, Feng Jian, who was still helping with Chu Ming'an's funeral arrangements at the police station, suddenly sneezed.

Even his left eye started twitching violently.

Feng Jian rubbed his eyes and muttered, "That's strange. The weather isn't cold. Could I have bumped into something weird?"

In the office of the Director of the Economic Department, after assigning tasks to everyone, Chen Yang asked Li Ningyu to bring over all the materials that Chu Ming'an was in charge of.

He now needs a large amount of data for overall planning in order to design the optimal solution and improve transportation efficiency.

Li Ningyu responded and hurriedly went to retrieve the documents.

Chen Yang rubbed his eyes, casually pulled out a pack of cigarettes from inside the lining, and lit one.

When Chen Yang traveled to this world, he brought with him his self-designed AI system, as well as his addiction to coffee and cigarettes.

For a hardworking, struggling entrepreneur, the 996 work schedule is normal.

If he could, he would love to be like 007.

Even so, he did not succeed, which shows that diligence is only a basic requirement for success, not an absolute requirement.

In other words, not every hardworking boss can succeed; sometimes, besides being diligent, a bit of luck is also crucial.
Before he could finish his cigarette, the office door was pushed open again.

Chen Yang looked up and saw an old acquaintance: "Ino-kun, it's only my first day at work, how did you find your way here?"

Yusuke Ino sat down opposite Chen Yang and said with a smile, "The department head knows it's your first day at work, so he specially asked me to bring you a bonus."

He said this is a tradition of you Chinese people, and he hopes that you will make a fortune, have abundant wealth, and rise to higher positions in the future.

As he spoke, Yusuke Ino took out a pre-sealed red envelope from his pocket and handed it over.

Chen Yang squeezed it; inside was a thin sheet, which was probably not a banknote but a check.

This Suzuhara department head is quite good at handling people.

Yusuke Ino continued, "By the way, Mr. Chen, besides this, I also have a formal mission to discuss with you."

"Minister Liang's previous application to the Military Police Headquarters for a supplies warehouse has already been approved by the Minister."

"The minister plans to convert a cotton yarn factory warehouse on Maigen Road and several surrounding small warehouses into a large material storage warehouse."

"Those smaller warehouses are currently being demolished and rebuilt. We've preserved the main warehouse as a temporary storage center." "Once this warehouse is fully completed, it will be larger than the logistics department's warehouse, more than enough for your use."

Chen Yang smiled and waved his hand: "Ino-kun, you can communicate this kind of thing with your subordinates. You don't need to tell me specifically."

"However, I do have something important that I would like you to convey to Minister Suzuhara."

“I know the minister is very careful in his actions. Even if I were to ask to meet with him now, he would still be hesitant.”

"So, we still need Ino-kun to act as a middleman and relay messages during this period."

"Something important?" Ino Yusuke frowned, looking at Chen Yang with surprise. "Chen-san, you're not planning to have the minister cooperate with you to target the supply warehouse, are you?"

"I don't think the minister will agree. Your supplies warehouse is directly under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Finance Department."

"Although the minister has the right to inquire, he does not have the power to allocate resources at any time."

"Moreover, most of these supplies are related to military supplies. If you touch them, you could easily get yourself into trouble, and the cost would be too high."

Chen Yang chuckled and said, "Ino-kun, can you broaden your perspective a bit?"

Do you think I need to target the supply depot?

"I want you to tell the minister that I have done what he wanted to see."

"From now on, I can control the transportation routes from Shanghai to the surrounding areas. You can transport your goods however you want."
"As long as it's within the jurisdiction of the new Nanjing government, I can stamp it and all the supplies will arrive safely."

"Not only railways, but also waterways and shipping are no problem."

Yusuke Ino suddenly realized, "No wonder the minister said that you look down on our things, Mr. Chen. It turns out that what you care about is the transportation network."

"Of course, transportation efficiency is the most important aspect of the goods business." Chen Yang said seriously, "I can connect the upstream and downstream, and all the businessmen in Shanghai have to be mindful of my feelings."

“If I don’t want them to, they won’t be able to get a single grain of rice out of the country.”

"As for the minister, if he needs me to transport goods, I will only charge him 10% of the fee."

“If he still wants to use my network, then I will charge him 30% of the fee.”

"Taking 30% of the profits, Mr. Chen, you're being too greedy!" Yusuke Ino's tone seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

Chen Yang smiled and said, "Ino-kun, you can pass this on to Minister Suzuhara. I believe he will think it is a very fair price."

"I dare to charge such a high price because I am confident that once the goods enter my warehouse, I will compensate you at the original price if anything goes wrong."

Upon hearing this, Yusuke Ino seemed somewhat hesitant. Although he would earn a little less money, Chen Yang guaranteed that there would be no problems with the supplies, and he would compensate for any problems that occurred. This offer was incredibly tempting.

After a moment of silence, Yusuke Ino nodded and said, "Alright, Mr. Chen, I will relay your words to the minister verbatim. If there's nothing else, I'll go down and check with them about the supplies warehouse."

Chen Yang raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute, Ino-kun, don't forget to remind Minister Suzuhara about the four docks in the Chinese-controlled area."

Yusuke Ino smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, don't worry, the minister already had this planned."

"I'll take my leave now."

"Take care, Ino-kun."
