Chapter 986 Rest is for better contribution
After much deliberation, Boss Dai decided to give in.
There was no way he would not admit defeat, he did not dare and was reluctant to create a rift with the Golden Buddha.
So another long telegram starting with "My Brother Jinfo" was sent to Tianjin.
In the telegram, Boss Dai called himself "Brother Yu" and explained the ins and outs of the incident in detail. He also apologized sincerely and claimed that he did not inform the Golden Buddha Group at the time because he was worried that the Golden Buddha Group was too busy and did not want to cause trouble for the Golden Buddha Group. Now he is ashamed of causing such a big mess.
Then, they presented a luxurious gift package, not to mention the funding, and also gave the Jinfo Group and Tianjin Station the power to promote officers below the rank of lieutenant colonel on their own.
What I mean is that as long as they are your people, you can make any arrangements, and all the letters of authorization signed by you will be recognized by Shancheng.
Lin Ze expressed disdain for this and asked, "Do I need your letters of authorization?"
But it's better to have one than nothing. Lin Ze promoted all the backbone members under his command to lieutenant colonels. If it wasn't too eye-catching, he would have wanted to make Niu Saner a colonel.
With Niu Saner's current status, is it too much to be a colonel?
Zhao Lijun is dead, and the matter is over. I don't know why the investigators from the headquarters haven't arrived yet. I heard that the South Manchuria Railway is also actively taking action. They know that coming to North China will not produce any results, so they went directly to Tokyo to make contacts.
Doi and others had no way to leave first, so they could only follow Lin Ze back to Tianjin and stay at the Lishun Hotel.
Director Niu entertained them grandly. He arranged for the Chamber of Commerce to have a table today, the bank to have a table tomorrow, and the North China Development Corporation to have a table the day after tomorrow.
Tujing and Ding Mocun were either drinking or on their way to drink, especially Ding Mocun, who was thin to begin with and now his face had turned yellow from drinking, as if he had liver disease.
However, this warm hospitality made the two of them feel even better about Lin Ze. At the same time, what they had seen and heard over the past few days made them constantly marvel at the prosperity and vitality of Tianjin.
Commander Lin is a capable man!
Tianjin is much better than Nanjing, and even slightly better than Shanghai!
While they were eating and drinking, Lin Ze went to Peiping in person to report the results of this handling to the old devil Okamura.
Okamura was very satisfied after hearing this. "I have always disliked these guys from the Mantetsu Railway. Now that we have caught them, we must punish them. When the investigators come..."
"General, please rest assured. When the investigators arrive, Doi Yucheng and Ding Mocun will be even more anxious than we are. They will spare no effort to attack the Mantetsu."
"Yoshi! Mr. Lin is indeed our army's Little Zhuge!"
After leaving the front-line headquarters, Gao Shengping sent someone to invite him again.
Lin Ze had been busy for many days and didn't want to bother anymore, so he simply asked Gao Shengping to come to the Lin Mansion to have a drink and chat.
Lao Gao came happily, and this time he didn't bring anyone with him, which surprised Lin Ze a little. Lao Gao really likes lively parties. If there are more than three people drinking, he can't drink anymore. If there are more than three people drinking, he doesn't want to raise a toast unless there are more than three people. Lao Gao belongs to the latter.
When he would rather drink alone with Lin Ze, it means that something must be wrong with him.
The weather was hot and he had no appetite, so Lin Ze asked the kitchen to prepare four cold dishes, cut some braised food, and served two plates of pickles, and just drank that.
After three or two drinks, Lao Gao wiped the sweat from his forehead and whispered, "Brother, to be honest, my hometown is short of doctors and medicine. A few days ago, the villagers came to me and wanted to get some medicine. Although I am an official, this medicine..."
Lin Ze smiled secretly, Lao Gao is really good, who in the world is not popular!
During the days when Lin Ze was busy at Zhoulizhuang Station, the old devil Okamura commanded another large-scale mopping-up operation. This time he learned his lesson and no longer concentrated his forces to suppress the rebellion as before. Instead, he used the city as the center and carried out a mobile sweep of the countryside, and used a large number of security groups, puppet troops, and military police.
This had a significant impact on the Red Zone soldiers who went deep into the countryside. Frequent raids meant they could not get supplies. Food and cloth were not a big deal, but the key was the lack of medical care and medicine. Now that the weather was hot, a cut on the body could easily cause infection, and even lead to the loss of life.
"Director, I can find some sand, rocks, and cement for you if you ask me to, but I can't get this medicine!"
Lao Gao felt a little lost.
He also wanted to make an entry in the red account!
"However, Miyamoto Trading Company also does pharmaceutical business. I'll ask Niu Saner to help you contact them."
This is the isolation zone that Lin Ze set up for himself. In Tianjin, the medicines were secretly transported through Dominica's channels and then flowed to the construction site hospital. Lin Ze had no involvement in this process. Even if something went wrong, it was just "oversight."
Having said that, if someone wants to check the flow of medicines in the construction site hospital, they must send people to the construction site.
Are those tens of thousands of strong laborers just there to eat and do nothing?
Not to mention Okamura, even the Emperor would have to think twice!
When others wanted to get some medicines through Lin Ze's channels, Lin Ze was more cautious.
It was only after Lao Gao asked that Lin Ze help to think of a solution, and he would definitely not do it himself. At most, he would ask Miyamoto Trading Company to help arrange some common medicines.
As for penicillin, it is impossible for it to flow out through this channel.
It’s not that Lin Ze doesn’t want to save people. The amount of this stuff transported to Tianjin through secret channels is already limited. Letting Zhou Xuejin take away a part of it is already saving countless lives. If too much leaks out, the risk will increase exponentially.
Lao Gao was overjoyed to hear that Lin Ze was willing to help.
I can write something in the red account again!
"Brother, come on, come on, drink this cup, and I'll take you to Qinsheng Lane to have some fun and thank you properly!"
"Director, didn't you say you don't go to brothels anymore?"
Lao Gao waved his hand and said, "Brother, you don't understand. I go to brothels now just to play mahjong, listen to some songs, and have the girls massage my legs and give me shoulder rubs. I want the atmosphere, the atmosphere!"
It didn’t matter anyway, so after dinner Lin Ze went for a stroll in Qinsheng Lane with Lao Gao.
He was expecting something embarrassing to happen, but someone came from the hall and sealed off the entire alley. All the doors of the halls were opened, and they conducted a safety check before letting Lin Ze visit freely.
Lin Ze couldn't help but complain, "Director, this is too much. We came here to have fun, it's a private matter, so we don't need to do that."
"Hey! Brother, what's your current status? You've worked so hard for North China and have been busy for so many days. It's finally time to take a break. Rest is for making greater contributions! This is clearly official business. It's not taboo to take some security measures."
The brothel owners on the whole street were trembling with fear. Lin Ze strolled around, listening to music in one house and playing cards in another.
The facilities here were far inferior to those of a restaurant, and the quality of the service staff was also average. Soon Lin Ze lost interest and went home to catch up on his sleep.
