Spy Wars: Get the Predator equipment at the beginning
Chapter 704: Merchant Corps Armed Commander
The governor's secretary was surprised to see Zhang Yunhe. Zhang Yunhe did not have the humble and fearful attitude that other Chinese people had when seeing foreigners.
"Mr. Zhang, this way!"
"it is good!"
The two men arrived at the door quickly, one in front and one behind. Ah Gui and the two bodyguards were left outside, and Zhang Yunhe was brought into the office by the secretary.
"Your Excellency the Governor, Mr. Zhang is here!"
Zhang Yunhe walked over and greeted him with a smile: "Sir, how are you?"
Northcott smiled and walked over to hug Zhang Yunhe. "Oh, I'm not feeling well. My cough has come back recently. I have to take some time to return to London for treatment."
"Sir, there is always work to be done, your health is important!" said Zhang Yunhe.
"Maybe you're right, please sit down!" Nosket shrugged and gestured.
"OK, thanks!"
The two of them sat down facing each other on the sofa, and soon someone brought them two cups of coffee.
"Sir, I heard from my subordinates that you want to see me?" Zhang Yunhe asked while drinking coffee.
"Yes, as far as I know, you have been recruiting people for training during this period, which has caused quite a stir. Many gentlemen, wealthy businessmen and officials are dissatisfied with this matter, have raised questions, and are even afraid and worried!" Nosket said seriously.
Zhang Yunhe explained, "Sir, those people's concerns are unnecessary. As for the doubts, we are just organizing normal physical exercise for our employees. What is there to be afraid of or worried about?"
Noskette said, "But you've already recruited over 10,000 people, all of them young and middle-aged. This is a huge force, and we're deeply uneasy about it. We came to you to ask you to disband some of them and keep only a small number!"
Zhang Yunhe shook his head and said, "Sir, I'm afraid that's impossible. We've worked so hard to recruit so many people. If we fire them now, our factory will be seriously short of workers. My factory and company won't be able to operate. If we can't operate, we won't be able to pay taxes to the government. If these people are idle, it will probably cause great trouble to public security!"
Noskette frowned. "You mean you recruited these people to be workers?"
"Of course, otherwise why do you think I recruited them? God, I recruited them to make profits for me, not to spend money to support them. I don't have that much money to do charity, and I'm not a fool. Do you think I look like a fool?" Zhang Yunhe spoke incoherently with his hands dancing.
At this time, the secretary standing nearby asked, "If you are recruiting these people as workers, why are you organizing them for training?"
"Is there anything wrong with that? Training can strengthen their bodies, improve their physical fitness, and increase their obedience and discipline! Gentlemen, I want to establish a large steel company and military industry enterprise. We need highly educated researchers and technical personnel, as well as strong workers who can do manual labor."
"Now those people are all so skinny. How can they be qualified for jobs that require strong bodies?"
Zhang Yunhe's words left Nosker speechless. He could only say, "Well, since we're just going to make them factory workers, that's fine. But you can't give them weapons and ammunition!"
Zhang Yunhe immediately said, "It's impossible not to give them a single weapon. You know I have docks, warehouses, airports, and now there are so many construction sites, all stockpiled with weapons, ammunition, and valuable goods. If I don't have a guard team, my warehouses will be stolen and looted in a few days!"
Nosket thought about it and could only take a step back: "I can only give you a 200-man escort team at most, and they can't be stationed in one place, and they can only be equipped with pistols and rifles!"
Zhang Yunhe shook his head: "200 people are too few. We need at least 500. The airport security team needs 200 people, 100 people each for the docks, warehouses, and construction sites. And I want to equip them with light machine guns!"
"No, 500 people are too many to be equipped with weapons. I can take a step back and give you the maximum quota of 300 people, not one more. If you dare to exceed this quota, I will order your people to be forcibly disarmed and disbanded!" Nosket's tone was serious and firm, and he would not tolerate any refusal.
Zhang Yunhe thought for a moment and said, "Sir, let's discuss this. If you give me 300 places, I'll accept. But I hope I can pay for another 200 places, 100 pounds each. How about that?"
Nosket's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he looked a little hesitant. After considering it for a moment, he said, "It's not impossible for you to pay to buy a spot, but if you have 500 armed men under your command, and they're out of control, it will pose a huge threat to public security!"
Zhang Yunhe raised his hand: "If you are not satisfied with this price, you can make an offer!"
Northcott stroked his beard and doubled the price: "200 pounds per place, and I'll give you a maximum of 1000 places!"
Zhang Yunhe felt relieved. If he could solve this problem with money, it would not be a big deal at all. A mere few hundred thousand pounds was a drop in the bucket for him.
Zhang Yunhe thought about it and raised the price again: "If the knight allows us to purchase 2000 places, I promise that this escort team will accept the command of the Governor's Office and you, and the Governor's Office will not need to bear any expenses. We will bear all the expenses ourselves. If the Japanese dare to attack us, we will accept your command and jointly resist their attack with the British army!"
2000 people? If you add the 500 people originally promised, that's 2500 people. If such a group of people were fully armed, the number would be almost the same as the British troops here now.
Nosket hesitated, but greed gradually took over. He gritted his teeth, stood up, and extended his hand to Zhang Yunhe. "Mr. Zhang, from now on, in the name of the Governor, I appoint you as the armed commander of the merchant corps on the entire island. You will be directly under the command of the Governor's Office. The appointment letter will be issued shortly!"
Zhang Yunhe stood up and shook hands with Northcutt, assuring him, "Please rest assured, sir, I will do my duty!"
Zhang Yunhe breathed a sigh of relief after coming out of the Governor's Mansion and getting into the car. The issue of recruiting soldiers and training them was completely resolved.
Now that more than 10,000 troops have been recruited and trained, it is impossible to dismiss them. Although he now has a staff of only 2500 people, it does not mean that he has to dismiss the remaining 8000.
He can equip the 2500 regular personnel with weapons and ammunition for daily military training. The remaining 8000 personnel will not be issued weapons and ammunition temporarily, but can also be arranged for training at the merchant group's base. Just don't make it too obvious and keep it to yourself.
Back at a military training ground, Zhang Yunhe had just gotten out of the car when Tian Tao and his men came up to greet him: "Boss, how's it going? Is the training issue resolved? What did the foreigners say?"
