Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

At the same time, Chief of Staff Niu of the 194th Division also rushed over. Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the freighter. Only after seeing with their own eyes the large amount of supplies loaded on the ship could all subsequent plans be carried out.

Three days later, at Quangang Wharf, a huge ship carrying 5,000 tons of supplies appeared on the sea level, immediately causing cheers from everyone present.

This kind of giant ship has not appeared in Quangang for a long time. The arrival of a cargo ship of this level means a large amount of imported materials. No matter what is loaded on the ship, it will be a great supplement for China at present.

After seeing the huge ship, Chief of Staff Niu felt relieved. He handed over the matters at the port to Captain Gu, and specifically instructed him to be careful in the reception and to simplify the procedures for the entry of materials into the port as much as possible. In addition to the taxes that were required to be paid, if there were still people who dared to take their money, then he would have to ask whether the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the entire division would agree.

Now that the giant cargo ship has arrived as promised, this also means that in addition to the 100 tons of food and one ton of canned food that were promised, they can also purchase a large amount of food at half price, which is very important.

This is only the first ship, and it also means there will be a second and a third. As long as there are enough supplies, they can completely defend this area. It is simply a daydream for the Japanese to occupy this place.

However, as the division chief of staff, his presence here would probably put pressure on the other side, so it would be better for him to let Commander Gu take charge directly. He went back to the 1125th Regiment Headquarters to wait for news.

When Qian Yu saw the cargo ship arrive, he used the radio to contact Qian, the steward on the ship, and then asked Boss Tang to drive a cargo ship with a carrying capacity of more than 1,000 tons to approach.

The two parties soon met each other and introduced themselves to each other:

"Hello, my name is Qian Yu. I just contacted you via the radio. I am mainly responsible for receiving the supplies this time."

"Hello, my last name is Qian too. I'm in charge of the transportation of materials for this route. The young master has already told me about the situation here. I will be in charge of unloading the cargo later."

After hearing this, Qian Yu nodded and took note of the information in his mind. He would report to his superiors after this matter was over.

Manager Qian continued, "Our ship has the most advanced loading and unloading equipment. I will leave a few people from the engine department to instruct us on how to use these equipment. Please prepare a small boat to take the other crew members ashore."

"We have been drifting on the sea for half a month. Everyone is very tired and needs to rest."

"No problem, I'll make arrangements right away."

After a while, a small passenger boat came over. Qian Yu left Tang Lao Da and the others to load and unload the cargo, while the others boarded the passenger boat and returned to the shore.

Captain Gu led his men to greet them. After all, it had been a long time since a foreign giant ship came to Quangang, so everyone's eyes were much more enthusiastic. Of course, it was mainly for profit. With the arrival of a cargo ship, everyone can benefit.

After both parties finished introducing themselves, Captain Gu started to complain crazily in his heart. Of course, the target was Shopkeeper Qian.

The content should be like this: This is a cargo ship belonging to the Niu Niu Country. Shopkeeper Qian, you should have told us earlier. If you had put this backer on the table earlier, who would dare to cause trouble for you? Why are you keeping it so mysterious? You even promised such a huge benefit to the 1125th Regiment, causing all of us to think wrongly.

You have to know that the Niu Niu Country is the overlord of the sea. As long as China puts up this sign, no one will dare to cause trouble for them, not even the Japanese navy.

Matters involving the Niu Niu Country are actually the most troublesome, but fortunately, Manager Qian is also Chinese, so communication is much easier.

At this time, the port management staff came over to ask how to collect taxes on the goods this time. After all, Niu Niu Country has many privileges in China, and the materials on this freighter were all shipped in under the name of a nobleman in Niu Niu Country.

This also makes the matter very difficult to handle. If too much is collected, it will cause resentment among the foreigners on the ship, and everyone present will probably be in trouble; if too little is collected, it will also be a serious loss for the country.

After all, we don’t have many external ports now. If the tax rate is too high, it will easily scare away these foreigners, and it will be a big trouble if they don’t come in the future.

However, after hearing this, Manager Qian said directly and domineeringly: "What's the problem? Just follow the actual situation of the materials on the ship and the domestic regulations and charge as much as you should."

After hearing this, Captain Gu asked in confusion: "Manager Qian, do you want to discuss this with these foreigners? After all, according to our regulations, there are still many places where goods from Niuniu Country can be tax-free."

"In fact, given the current situation in our country, it's already good enough as long as we can ship the grain back to the country. If we collect high taxes, I'm afraid the cargo owners will suffer and won't ship the grain next time."

"Captain Gu, it's okay. Our boss is not short of money. Just follow the rules."

"It's not easy for our country right now. There are wars everywhere and money is needed everywhere. We will pay every penny we owe. This is the duty of a Chinese."

In the end, under the insistence of Manager Qian, three thousand pounds was paid directly. This was a huge sum of money, which made everyone present very happy.

What China lacks most now is foreign exchange, especially the currency issued by the Niu Niu Country, which is currently the strongest in the world and can be used to buy anything in the world.

Manager Qian continued, "Manager Qian, please arrange accommodation for our crew members. Oh, and take them to exchange currency. We will be staying here for a few days, so we will definitely need to buy a lot of things."

"But everyone only has pounds on them, so we need to exchange them for some French currency, which will make it more convenient to use."

After hearing this, Captain Gu's eyes suddenly turned and he thought of a great idea.

He smiled and asked, "Manager Qian, there's no need to go through so much trouble. If you want to exchange money, you can do it directly with our group. We can give you 10% more, no, 20% more in French currency."

After Captain Gu finished speaking, he couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up in his heart. If this operation really succeeded, he would definitely receive great praise from the division commander and chief of staff.

You know, the British pound is the most stable currency at present, while the legal tender is depreciating day by day. Although there is an official exchange rate, no one is stupid enough to exchange the British pound for legal tender. If you want to exchange, you have to go to the black market. But these foreigners don't understand the twists and turns involved. At this time, any money they can make is good.

Manager Qian actually understood the whole story, but Kong Hao had already told him to try to support the domestic troops whenever possible. After all, everyone was working together to fight the Japanese, and improving their strength would mean improving China's national defense.

Anyway, it is relatively easy to make money in the stock markets of industrial powers, especially now that we have applied for a large number of patents and can obtain a large amount of funds every day.

We also secretly acquired a large number of stocks that are destined to be popular in the next few years, just waiting for the Japanese to become desperate one day so that we can make a fortune.
