Chapter 853: The reaction triggered by turning in the bristles


When Shinnosuke Murakami heard that such a good thing had happened, he hurriedly asked, "Oh?

What materials are so important that they need to be escorted by the imperial army?

” "Bristles!"

Lao Hou spit out two words like gold.

When Murakami Shinnosuke heard it, he was pleasantly surprised.

He suddenly stood up from behind his desk, propped his hands on the desk, stared at Lao Hou with his eyes, and asked, "Nani?"

You repeat?

” "Your Excellency, you heard me right, I'm talking about bristles!"

Lao Hou said one more word this time and nodded affirmatively.

Shinnosuke Murakami immediately walked out from behind the desk, walked in front of Lao Hou, patted Lao Hou's shoulder with his hand, and then pointed to the sofa with a smile on his face, and said: "Hou San, please sit down, please tell me how you got this kind of material, this is really good, it can be said that it is the best news I have heard in recent times."

I think you should know how much the Imperial Army wants for such things. ” For Murakami's performance, Lao Hou knew that this was because he had really fished Murakami's appetite.

You know, the last time he came to Murakami's office, Murakami Shinnosuke had been sitting firmly on the chair behind his desk without moving, and he didn't invite himself to sit on the sofa like today, looking like he was going to have a long talk with himself.

So Lao Hou sat on the sofa and explained: "Of course, I know the importance of such things as pig bristles to the imperial army, and since Chongqing listed this kind of material as a strict ban on selling to the imperial army, it has been difficult for the imperial army to get this kind of material.

This time, as a coincidence, I bought it from a merchant through an intermediary.

This businessman is also taking risks, he tried everything to smuggle a little bristles out of the area controlled by the Chongqing government, of course, the asking price is also very high, the businessman is chasing profits for the purpose, so for the sake of high profits, he must want to try.

It's just that the amount of bristles he smuggled out this time is very small, and there is no guarantee that he will successfully smuggle out the bristles in the future.

So I didn't hesitate to buy all the bristles in his hand after I knew that I had this bristles, and now these bristles are stored in my tea shop.

I guess it's still a little unsafe to put something like this out there.

If the anti-Japanese organizations and anti-Japanese elements in Stone Town find out that I have pig bristles, they may come and steal them or set a fire to them one day.

That's why I've come here to ask for your help, and now the bristles must be shipped to Shanghai as soon as possible, in case there are too many nights. ” Shinnosuke Murakami had been to the original Tongwen Book House on Shamao Street, and knew the size of the place there.

And this old man said that the bristles he got were all stored there, and he knew in his heart that there would not be many of them.

To make his heart a little disappointed, he knew very well that the current imperial army had a huge demand for bristles, which could only be better than nothing.

But since you get the bristles, no matter how much you should pay attention to, one thing is better than nothing.

Thinking of this, Shinnosuke Murakami nodded and agreed: "Hou Sang, you are not wrong, the bristles are stored in your tea shop and it is not safe, it is better to ship them to Shanghai as soon as possible."

In that case, I will call back to the special high school at once, and ask them to prepare a truck and escort the gendarmes to your tea shop to transport the bristles away. ” Lao Hou hurriedly refused: "This is not good, Your Excellency Shaozuo."

My true identity needs to be kept secret, and if I do it now, it will expose my relationship with the Japanese Empire and the Imperial Army, which will do more harm than good to my mission.

It's better to wait until tonight when no one is around. ” Murakami Shinnosuke listened to Lao Hou's opinion and knew that Lao Hou was worried about his identity being exposed, so he nodded and said, "Since Hou Sang said so, then I agree to wait until tonight to load the bristles into the car."

By the way, how did you get the bristles?

Can you get the merchant who sold you the bristles to supply us for a long time in the future?

” Lao Hou smiled and replied, "As for how I purchased the bristles, I have already told you just now, but for reasons of confidentiality, I can't tell you the details, I can only tell you the results."

You expect that businessman to provide us with bristles for a long time, which I also find unrealistic.

According to what the merchant told me, this time he took the risk of smuggling this bristle and was almost found out, and he was very bold, and felt that the risk of smuggling bristles was too great, so he probably did not dare to smuggle bristles in the future. ” Shinnosuke Murakami was disappointed when he heard this, he didn't expect that Lao Hou could only purchase bristles at one time, and thought that he could establish a long-term source of bristle procurement.

So he sighed deeply and said, "Since it's just a one-time deal, there's no way, it's just a pity."

Hou Sang, I think Yokota Co., Ltd. made the right choice to send you to Stone Town.

I hope that you can pay more attention to the channels and methods of bristles in the process of completing your tasks in the future, and it would be perfect if you could establish a long-term channel for purchasing bristles. ” Of course, Lao Hou would not accept Murakami's words, but shook his head in distress and said, "There are not many perfect things in this world, so we will have to try our luck in the future."

Something like bristles is hard to come by.

I have already informed Your Excellency of this matter, and I remember to send a car to load it in the evening, and I will take my leave at the next time. ” Shinnosuke Murakami kept sending Lao Hou out of the office door, and then turned back, picked up the phone and called Yukio Fujita's office.

After the phone was connected, Shinnosuke Murakami made a detailed report to Yukio Fujita about the incident, and once again praised Lao Hou's actions this time.

Yukio Fujita was not interested in how Shinnosuke Murakami praised Lao Hou, who in his opinion was a peripheral member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs system, and should have helped the Imperial Army to procure when he encountered bristles.

What he attaches more importance to is the matter itself, which shows that Chongqing still has loopholes to exploit in the embargoed bristles.

From this, he thought that Li Yixin and Masao Yamashita are not currently implementing the 'wind and rain plan' in Chongqing?

Just so that they can find a way to get a batch of bristles back from Chongqing.

Since Fujita Yukio did not have the means to communicate with Li Yixin and Yamashita Masao, he immediately sent someone to send a request to the head of the 'Mei Agency' in Shanghai, asking His Excellency to give an order to the 'ghost' to inform Yamashita Masao to make sure to get a batch of bristles back on the way back.
