Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 400: Cigarettes are also important military supplies

"Brother Miyamoto, you've worked so hard. You must have a good rest this time. I'll treat you tonight. Ask Mr. Yamaguchi to come. We won't leave until we're drunk."

Miyamoto shook his head mysteriously. "Mr. Lin, the main reason I came here this time is to include our Dahai brand in the military supply. Compared with retail, this is the way to make big money. Do you know how many cigarettes the North China Front Army has purchased so far this year?"

Lin Ze had never really understood this. "Brother Miyamoto, I am not as familiar with this as you are. How much did the army purchase in total?"

Miyamoto took a deep breath, "More than 18 billion cigarettes, that's boxes! Even if we only make ten dollars per box, that's nine million! Of course, it's impossible for all of this supply to be given to us. The North China Cigarette Factory of the Empire will definitely take a large part of it, but judging from the current supply, the production capacity of the North China Cigarette Factory is completely insufficient. The Front Army will have to purchase a large part from Manchuria, and this part is our opportunity!"

What the hell!

Hearing this number, Lin Ze was also quite shocked. How could the Japanese smoke so many cigarettes?

In fact, it really works.

According to the current logistical requirements of the Japanese, a front-line soldier should be rationed with 20 cigarettes a day, and the North China Front Army has more than 200,000 people. Even if the Second Army is assigned to Central China, this is still a huge number.

Moreover, twenty cigarettes were just the standard ration. The old soldiers smoked two packs of cigarettes a day like a piece of cake. For the extra ration, they would pay the quartermaster to purchase extra.

Most of the army idiots smoke Pengyi and Jinqiu brands. Of course, these good cigarettes are mainly supplied to officers. Ordinary soldiers mainly smoke Xieli and Yu brands. Unscrupulous businessmen dare to add anything to the cigarettes. Tree leaves are considered good, and sawdust and grass leaves are not a problem.

The Navy Red Deer is rich, and they all smoke the specially supplied Xuguang brand. They also have specially designed mouthpieces. Although there is no filter cotton, the mouthpiece can prevent tobacco foam from entering the mouth and improve the taste.

"Brother Miyamoto, this business is promising. What can I do for you?"

Miyamoto stopped eating and said seriously, "Mr. Lin, to be honest, although I have a certain friendship with Kitahara, it seems that Kitahara trusts you very much. I need you to report this matter to Major General Matsuzaki through Kitahara, and then he will come forward to clear all the links of the procurement. But don't worry, I have arranged the share ratio for each person, and they have no reason to disagree!"

Lin Ze did what he said and was about to go find Kitahara Ransuke. Just at this time, Mieko brought out two bowls of soba noodles.

Seeing Lin Ze was about to leave, she looked at him with a sad look in her eyes, "Mr. Lin, why don't you eat something before you leave?"

Lin Ze waved his hand and said, "I've eaten. I'll come back later."

Miyamoto was overjoyed. Wow! He had two bowls of noodles to himself, and they were made by Mieko herself. What a treat!

Gendarmerie Headquarters.

When Lin Ze found Kitahara Ransuke, Kitahara was listening to the phonograph comfortably.

"Kitahara-kun is in a good mood today!"

Seeing Lin Ze coming, Kitahara Ranjie smiled and turned on the phonograph. "I haven't had much to do recently, so I have a rare moment of leisure. Mr. Lin, please sit down and pour yourself some tea."

Lin Ze took Kitahara Ranjie's teacup and filled it up first, but he was not in a hurry to pour tea for himself. "Kitahara-kun, I have something to report to you."

"Oh? Tell me, what's the matter?"

Lin Ze did not hide anything and told Miyamoto about setting up a cigarette factory with him and hoping to include it in the front's procurement system. Of course, he did not go into details about how the equipment came from.

Bei Yuan was very surprised when he heard this. "Mr. Lin, I didn't expect you to have a talent for business. Your business is so big now. This is not easy!"

Lin Ze: It's time to start my performance!

Lin Ze's expression suddenly became solemn, and his tone was emotional. "Kihara-kun, remember when you were in a bad mood last time, I comforted you and said that no matter what, as long as you work hard, you will definitely get good results. I know that not being of noble birth has always been a knot in your heart. If not, with your merits, I'm afraid your status would have been far higher than it is now, instead of being confined to the position of deputy commander of the gendarmerie like now. Later, I thought, even if you are not of noble birth, so what? In this era, gold is more noble than blood! As long as we have enough money, are you still afraid of not being promoted? I'll tell you the truth, you can use the part of the profit of this cigarette factory that belongs to me at will, and use it to open up every link on the road ahead! ”

Kitahara: Holy shit!!

With Lin Sang, I feel like a fish in water!

I was able to meet a good brother who truly cares about me, and this is also the blessing of Amaterasu! !

In fact, the following words are all nonsense. Miyamoto has reserved a share for Kitahara Ransuke. With such a large scale, giving him a few percent is enough for Kitahara Ransuke to use as gifts.

But Lin Ze's words were too sincere. Beiyuan thought of the past. If it weren't for Lin Sang, I might have given up hope long ago!

"Good brother! Don't worry, regardless of the money, I must support your career. I will go find Lieutenant General Matsuzaki right now. I will take care of this matter!"

Kitahara Ransuke was not stupid. This matter was not difficult to handle. After all, the front army also needed a large supply of cigarettes. Why buy from Manchuria when you can buy from your own people?

"By the way, what brand of cigarettes do you have?"

"Big Sea Brand!"

Beiyuan shook his head and said, "This name is not good. If we want to supply the army, we need to design a new brand. I think we should call it the Thousand Needle Brand. The soldiers will definitely like it!"

Lin Ze was confused. Thousand Needles, what kind of name is this?

In fact, the Thousand Needles refers to a thousand women each sewing one stitch on the cloth. This thing was like a talisman on the Japanese side. Before the Japanese went to war, the women in the family would take a piece of white cotton cloth and ask someone to sew it on the street.

The Japanese believed that this kind of cloth would bring them good luck, and would often wrap it around their waists or even their heads.

Pooh!

Let alone injecting a thousand people, even injecting ten thousand people would not prevent them from going to hell after their death.

"Since Kitahara-kun named it himself, there will definitely be no problem. I will tell Miyamoto later that he has to pay you a naming fee."

Kitahara Ransuke laughed. "Come to think of it, I haven't seen Miyamoto for a long time. So, I'll try to invite Major General Matsuzaki to come out. We can get together at the restaurant tonight."

Lin Ze said cheerfully: "No problem, I'll make the arrangements. Whether Major General Matsuzaki has time or not, let's go to the restaurant and relax today."

Then Lin Ze whispered, "You haven't been here for a long time. A new batch of foreign horses has arrived at the restaurant. Great job!"

Kitahara laughed out loud, "Yoshi, very yyoshi, only foreign horses have the feeling of conquest!"
