Chapter 180: The 4th Division's Outrageous Operation
After a while, he received an emergency call as expected. After receiving the order, Matsui did not follow Yoshio Shinozuka's order and send out the main force of the division to conduct a large-scale search.
He simply sent a regiment of troops to the First Army Headquarters, preparing to pretend to shut others up.
The main force of the 4th Division was sent to guard all the shops, big and small, in the city, and announced to the outside world that they were searching for suspicious persons.
Especially near Fujii Osaka Trading Company, there were two squadrons patrolling back and forth to ensure absolute safety there.
This is our family business, and there must be no mistakes.
After doing all this, Division Commander Matsui signaled Fujii to continue speaking.
"Everyone, this is the dividend of our business group in the past half month. According to the agreement of the headquarters, this time the dividend is 100,000 US dollars. This is the check. You can go to the bank to collect it at any time."
Division Commander Matsui and his two brigade commanders were very happy. Their 4th Division had only been here for half a month, and they had already earned such a huge sum of money. It seemed that Taiyuan was really a great place for them.
If these 100,000 US dollars were distributed to every soldier, it would be more than one month's salary, and this is only half a month's dividend. Calculated this way, it is basically equivalent to three times the military salary.
Division Commander Matsui exclaimed in admiration: "Not bad, very good."
"In the future, we will gradually relax regulations and make Taiyuan a material distribution base. A relaxed business environment will bring greater profits."
Fujii stood up again and praised Division Commander Matsui for his good leadership, which ensured that everyone had food to eat and money to earn.
Finally, when he left, he took out three small boxes and said with a smile:
"This is a personal gift to the three of you. I hope you like it."
Division Commander Matsui didn't expect to receive a gift. Although he had seen too many good things at his position, ordinary things were no longer in his eyes.
But everyone likes free gifts. Seeing how serious Fujii is, there must be something of great value in the box.
When he opened the box himself, he found some pills, which seemed to be sulfa tablets.
Division Commander Matsui was wondering, even though these sulfa tablets were worth some money, their troops were equipped with quite a few of them, so there was no need to be so cautious.
Suddenly, a brigade commander of the 4th Division exclaimed:
"Could this be the batch of top-grade German sulfa tablets that are circulating in China? This is too rare."
Division Commander Matsui hurriedly asked curiously, "Nogusuku-kun, what do you mean by that? Are these sulfa tablets very valuable?"
The leader of the Wild Grass Brigade said loudly: "This kind of good stuff is more than just precious. It is simply priceless. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it."
"I heard that. I just heard someone say that this sulfa tablet is made with the latest German purification technology. Its anti-inflammatory effect on wounds is 50% higher than what we produce ourselves. The side effects are also much smaller than what we produce, which seems to be about 50%. It can be called a miracle drug."
"This stuff suddenly appeared a while ago. The supplier is very mysterious, and it is only sold at auctions. The highest price for a group was 3000 dollars. A group of 30 pills, an average of dollars per pill, is really terrifying."
"My family also wants to buy a few sets as backup. In case something happens, they can be used to save lives. It's a pity that such good things rarely appear at auctions. They are all bought by the upper class."
"Fujii-kun, I didn't expect that the legendary supplier of top-quality sulfa tablets turned out to be you. It's really surprising."
Fujii quickly responded with a smile: "It was by chance that I met this noble man. I did a big deal with the supplier today."
"But what he bought is a little special. We may have to do a lot of cooperation in the future. I hope to get a special passage out of the city."
"Only by making the other party aware of our strong strength can they think of our Osaka Merchant Group in future transactions, so that everyone can make more money."
After hearing this, Division Commander Matsui and Brigade Commander immediately patted their chests and assured that there would be no problem at all.
Anyone who dares to mess with the Osaka Merchant Corps would be messing with the 30,000 strong soldiers of the Fourth Division, and they will definitely be beaten into a coward.
Back then, when their Fourth Division was on the home ground, they would fight with the police at the slightest disagreement, and they would win every time. They were extremely fierce and were never the ones to be afraid of anything.
Just like that, after discussing for a while, several people went back.
Division Commander Matsui was in charge of the division headquarters, commanding the entire division to provide the strictest security for the Osaka trading company's stores.
Of course, those who have paid protection fees will also receive protection from irregular patrols by the troops.
All in all, all the soldiers of the Fourth Division were very busy tonight and caught many thugs who wanted to take advantage of the situation to rob shops.
By the next morning, Division Commander Matsui received an order from Yoshio Shinozuka to go to the First Army's temporary command post.
When Yoshio Shinozuka saw Division Commander Matsui arrive, he quickly ordered him to mobilize his troops to search the city for suspicious persons.
However, Division Commander Matsui said with an embarrassed look:
"Sir Shinozuka, such a large-scale search will cause great unrest in the city and seriously affect economic development. I think it is not appropriate to make such a big move at this time."
After hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka was furious. Now someone was bombarding his headquarters and trying to kill him.
This group of guys who only know how to do business and only care about money no matter what they do, are still talking to him about economics and how to make money at this time. They really don't take him, the commander, seriously.
Finally, under his strong request, Division Commander Matsui finally accepted the order and conducted a large-scale search throughout the city of Taiyuan.
However, "there are orders from above and countermeasures from below", this is the old tradition of the 4th Division.
The First Army Command ordered a city-wide search, but it was carried out by soldiers from the Fourth Division and puppet troops, so a very funny scene appeared in the entire city.
When the soldiers of the Fourth Division went to search, they informed the local people in advance that they were just going to take a look and there was no need to worry too much.
They also specifically formulated three "no" principles: no entering the inner house to harass, no taking the opportunity to blackmail, and no taking the opportunity to bully and dominate the market.
The soldiers of the 4th Division all came from small traders and had a special liking for doing business.
If they want to do business well, they cannot rely on their strong strength to bully the market. This is also the reason why they have always been incompatible with other Japanese troops.
Things got interesting next, as the soldiers from the 4th Division led the puppet troops in a city-wide search, but their attitude was extremely friendly.
When they went to a restaurant, if it was lunchtime when there were many customers, the soldiers of the Fourth Division would definitely wait by the side. The reason they gave was that business was booming and going at this time would disturb them from making money, which was very unethical.
They waited for two hours, and only after all the guests had left the restaurant did they bring people to explain their purpose. Anyway, they were just following orders to search, and as for doing the work without putting in any effort, that was what they were best at.
The restaurant owner is also a very versatile person. At this time, he will basically take the initiative to stuff a dozen dollars into the mouth, and the Japanese will basically fool him for the sake of money.
As for ordinary houses, people often just take a look at the door and leave. This is convenient and saves trouble, and they can also be lazy, so why not do it?
Anyway, the order from Division Commander Matsui was to create momentum and let the people above see it.
The specific implementation can be sloppy if possible, but it should not affect Taiyuan's economy and delay their way of making money.
