Spy Wars: Get the Predator equipment at the beginning

Jardine Matheson.

Zhang Yunhe reported to General Manager Gaisik on the operating conditions and profitability of the last quarter of the year, and submitted the work plan and budget report for next year.

"Your work plan is very well written. The goals you set for next year are very pioneering. The budget is too high, but are you confident that you can complete it?" Gesik asked after reading the work plan and budget report.

Zhang Yunhe sat across from Gesik. "Mr. Boss, I won't fight a battle without confidence. The situation here will become even more complicated tomorrow, and the fighting will become more frequent. The demand for various goods will be enormous. I have enough confidence to double my business volume next year. I hope Mr. Boss will support me!"

Gaisike thought for a moment and said, "How about this? You still have a few days before returning to Jiangzhou. Give me two days to think about it. I'll tell you my decision in two days!"

"Okay, sir!"

Zhang Yunhe changed the subject and asked, "Sir, there's a huge demand for arms here right now. Although there are quite a few experts secretly selling arms here, they haven't been able to scale up. Do you have any ideas in this regard?"

"Arms trading? This business isn't a good thing for us right now. You should know that we're on an isolated island. If the quantity is small, we can still do some secretly, but if the quantity is too small, there's no profit to be made. And if the quantity is too large, transportation will be a problem, and it'll be hard to find buyers!"

"What's more crucial is that there are wars everywhere in Europe right now. Many countries are involved. They don't even have enough weapons for their own use, so how can they have extra weapons to sell?" Gaisik said, shaking his head.

Zhang Yunhe said, "Sir, you are a capitalist, right? If there were enough profit, wouldn't you let your factory do everything it can to increase production?"

"This is a huge market. Whatever arms are brought here will be bought and consumed on the battlefield!"

Gaisik frowned as he puffed on his cigar and said, "I know everything you said, but if we ship the goods here and sell them, we will offend the Japanese. If they find evidence, do you think our company can survive here?"

Zhang Yunhe said, "That's only if they can find evidence. I know you don't want the foreign company to take any risks. Actually, we can do this privately. No matter how much arms you can get, I will take them all and find a way to ship them out myself!"

"If you think shipping the goods here is too risky, you can ship them to Hong Kong Island or Tianzhu. We'll open a route between Tianzhu and Tiannan Province, buy a few transport planes, and hire a few retired pilots to transport the arms from Tianzhu to Tiannan. As long as we can get the goods to Tiannan, I'll take care of the rest. All you have to do is wait and see!"

From ancient times to the present, there has never been a shortage of merchants engaged in arms trade. Although this business is very risky, the profits are also huge. However, if you do this business, you either don't do it or you have to do it on a large scale. There is no point in selling thirty or fifty guns and hundreds or thousands of bullets at a time.

As an old foreign company, Jardine Matheson naturally had businesses such as arms trading. They even sold opium, not to mention arms.

But things are different now. The Japanese have their own complete military-industrial system and can be self-sufficient in the event of a war. Even if Jardine Matheson wants to do arms business, it dare not risk offending the Japanese by selling arms to the Guo army.

Gaisik often secretly obtains some arms and sells them on the black market, but the business is relatively small and the profit is not much.

After hearing Zhang Yunhe's proposal and ideas, he couldn't help but be moved and asked, "Do you really have a channel to digest such a large amount of arms?"

"Of course, I know the senior management there!" said Zhang Yunhe.

Gaisik asked again, "I'm a little skeptical about your financial resources. How much can you eat at once?"

"I can eat as much as you have, as long as it can be transported here!" Zhang Yunhe said with a smile.

After some consideration, Gaisik felt that it would be too costly to open an air transport route from Tianzhu to Tiannan. It would require too much work and too much trouble, and it would not be easy to operate. If it were other commodities, it would be easy, but it was arms that had to be transported. Without a powerful background, it would be difficult to deal with the troubles that would follow.

He said to Zhang Yunhe, "If you ship the goods to Hong Kong Island, how can you ship them to the mainland? You know, Nanyue is full of Japanese invaders right now. It's impossible to ship the arms ashore!"

Zhang Yunhe smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. As long as you ship the goods to Hong Kong Island, I can find a way to ship them to the mainland. We'll trade in Hong Kong Island. Once the transaction is completed, you get the money and I'll take the goods!"

Gaisik weighed the pros and cons and decided that if he just shipped the goods to Hong Kong Island for the trade, there would be no risk on his side, as long as the goods were not seized by the Japanese warships at sea.

"Okay, I'll do this business with you, but I can't go to Hong Kong Island to trade with you in person. I need to find an agent!"

"It doesn't matter to me who I'm trading with. As long as I see the price for the arms is agreed upon, I'll pay them and the arms will belong to me. Once the deal is done, your people can take the money and leave. It's that simple!"

Zhang Yunhe was not worried at all about not being able to buy arms from Europe. If the price of a rifle was 100 yuan, and the government signed a purchase contract with an arms dealer in order to train the army to fight against the German army, but the arms could be sold for 150 yuan in the East, the arms manufacturer would either try its best to increase production or put the official purchase orders on hold to meet the needs of the Eastern market first.

In order to make greater profits, these black-hearted arms dealers don't care about patriotism or not. As long as there is enough profit, they can sell out the whole world.

The two discussed the details of the cooperation and some agreements on transactions in Hong Kong Island.

After finishing the conversation with Gaisik, Zhang Yunhe took the note signed by Gaisik to the warehouse of the foreign company to transfer the goods. These foreign goods were all high-end goods, which were to be shipped to Jiangzhou and belonged to the foreign company's business.

There were a lot of goods shipped to Jiangzhou this time, many of which were not available at Jardine Matheson. Zhang Yunhe had to transfer goods from other foreign companies. He made many phone calls, established many connections, and made a lot of promises in one afternoon before he was able to gather all the necessary goods.

The rest of the work was left to other staff of the foreign company. Zhang Yunhe returned to Azhen's store for dinner in the evening.

Late at night, he drove his car to the vicinity of the Japanese Navy Club, stopped on the street diagonally opposite its gate, turned off the engine, pulled the car curtains, and sat quietly in the car.

It was past one in the morning when the Japanese Navy Club was finally closing. As the last wave of Japanese officers left, the service staff began to clean up.

When Matsushima's figure appeared at the door, Zhang Yunhe's half-closed eyes suddenly opened wide. He sat in the car motionless until Matsushima opened the door of a car, got into the driver's seat, started the car and drove towards the east side of the street.

He started the car and followed Songdao's car from a distance.
