Spy Wars: Get the Predator equipment at the beginning

Chapter 851: Support from Rich Businessmen

Former Governor's Office.

Zhang Yunhe has moved his office here.

The first thing he did when he came here to work was to call the heads of the six major families.

Although he was still the armed commander of the merchant corps, his status and position were completely different when he met the heads of the six major families this time. The heads of the six major families were very reserved when they saw him, and they were in awe of him both in their hearts and in their actions.

Zhang Yunhe smiled and said to the heads of the six major families, "I've called all of you here to discuss a few things. First, as you all know, we're currently under a blockade by the Japanese. The products produced in our factory can't be shipped out, and the goods purchased from foreign countries can't be shipped in!"

"Most importantly, our food and other daily necessities won't last long, so we need to find a way to buy supplies from outside and ship them in!"

"I've thought about it. The only way now is to use Ao Island as a springboard. We can buy food and other daily necessities from foreign countries, fly the flag of a neutral country, and then transport them to Ao Island. Then we can find a way to transport them from Ao Island. This way, the risk of being seized by the Japanese ships will be much smaller."

"Here's what I'm thinking: You're all the wealthiest people on the island, and you all have connections abroad. I'm considering establishing an ocean-going trading company, and I sincerely invite you all to join. Those with money can contribute money, and those with talent can contribute people. We can discuss your shareholdings in detail. What do you all think?"

The head of the Lin family immediately said: "Commander Zhang is doing this for the people of Hong Kong. I have no reason not to support him!"

“Yes, our Li family also supports it.”

"The Zhu family has no obligation to refuse"

At once, the leaders of the six major families expressed their opinions one after another.

Of course they have to participate in such a great thing without any hesitation. Now as long as they can get in touch with Zhang Yunhe, they can get extra special care.

Zhang Yunhe was not surprised to see that everyone from the six major families agreed so readily, because he had expected this.

He then said the second thing: "I am very happy and relieved that you are all knowledgeable people who are willing to do this for the people of Hong Kong. The second thing is actually also related to the people of the island."

"I've sent people to do some statistics these days. Because of the war, many factories and shops have stopped production and closed down, which has also caused many people to lose their jobs. Many people have become beggars, with no clothes to wear, no food to eat, and even no place to live!"

"Although the government has been doing resettlement and relief work, there are so many victims of the war that the government is overwhelmed and can't allocate more funds to purchase disaster relief supplies in such a hurry!"

"So after discussing it with my wife, we decided to set up a charitable foundation. We'll donate a portion of our own money to the foundation, and then raise funds from all walks of life, especially wealthy businessmen and celebrities. We'll keep a portion of this money for the foundation's daily expenses, and use the rest to build temporary shelters, buy food, clothing, and other daily necessities to help the victims and tide them over this difficult time!"

"The charity foundation is being established now. I will host a charity dinner in two days. There will be an auction session where I will auction off some of my own treasures. All the proceeds will be invested in this charity foundation to help the victims!"

"If there are any collections you find that you like, I hope you will actively bid for them. If you also want to do something for the victims, you can donate directly or put some of your treasures up for auction and donate the proceeds to a charity foundation."

After hearing this, the head of the Lin family immediately said, "Commander, since you're planning such a meaningful event, of course our Lin family must support and participate. I personally have several pieces of calligraphy, paintings, and porcelain that I've treasured for many years that I can auction off. I promise to donate the proceeds to a charity foundation!"

The heads of several other major families also said that they would actively bid at that time, and if they failed to win the bid, they would make direct donations.

Zhang Yunhe then introduced Ah Zhen, who was sitting next to him, to everyone. "This is my second wife. She will be in charge of all the affairs of the charity foundation from now on. I hope you all can give me your full support!"

The six major families all expressed: "We will definitely support the Second Madam's work."

Ah Zhen stood up with a smile on her face, nodded slightly to everyone and said, "Thank you, bosses! I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future!"

9 o'clock in the evening, north bank of the boundary river.

In a village 30 kilometers further north, the headquarters of the Japanese 38th Division was located. It had changed its location several times before this in order to avoid the reconnaissance plane sent by Zhang Yunhe from detecting the specific location of the command headquarters.

At this time, the division commander Tadayoshi Sano, the chief of staff Tadamichi Subayashi and others were standing outside the division headquarters, seemingly waiting for someone.

In the distance under the night sky, an army holding torches was marching along a winding road.

This Japanese army marching at night stretched for more than ten miles on the road. Low- and middle-level officers rode tall horses, some grassroots officers and soldiers rode three-wheeled motorcycles, and senior officers rode cars.

Some of the Japanese soldiers rode in trucks, while the vast majority of them lined up and walked on foot.

In the middle and rear of the team, a row of tanks were moving with black smoke coming out of the rear; in the logistics and baggage troops, a large number of military horses were used to tow cannons and transport supplies.

This group of Japanese soldiers passed by on a road one kilometer in front of the 38th Division Headquarters. Not long after, a convoy separated from the marching team and drove towards the 38th Division Headquarters.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander, it should be the convoy of Division Commander Koichi Komoda!" Chief of Staff Hayashi Suzhongdao whispered to Sano Tadayoshi.

All the Japanese officers and soldiers at the entrance of the division headquarters were looking at the convoy coming from the front.

The convoy slowly stopped in front of the division headquarters, and the officers and soldiers in the convoy got off one after another.

The rear door of one of the best cars was opened, and Komoda Yasuichi got out of the car with a command knife slung over his waist. He looked up and saw Tadayoshi Sano standing on the steps under the eaves, and immediately walked towards him.

When Tadayoshi Sano saw Komoda Yasushi get out of the car, he didn't want to be careless and immediately walked towards him.

The two men stopped a meter apart and bowed to each other. Sano Tadayoshi spoke first, "Komoda Jun, welcome to South China with the 104th Division. Thank you for your hard work!"

Komoda Koichi said, "We are all serving the Empire. I feel really bad for making Sano-kun wait for me here so late at night!"

Sano Tadayoshi said helplessly, "There's nothing we can do about it. We don't have air superiority in South China right now. If we want to march large forces without being discovered and bombed, we can only march at night! Komoda-kun, let's go in and talk, please!"

Komoda Yasushi nodded and walked into the division headquarters with Sano Tadayoshi.
