Chapter 2546 Kodama Borrows Money
While they were chatting, they saw a few people walking in.

The few leaders sat on the round table in the middle of the table, unlike Zhang Tianhao and the others who were sitting at the back, and Kodama also walked in with a serious face.

From the looks of it, the body has almost recovered, and even his face has become a little rosy.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

With Kodama coughing a few times, nearly fifty people in the whole meeting slowly quieted down.

And he also scanned the various Japanese businessmen sitting here before putting a document on the table.

And his secretary stepped aside, preparing to record the content of this meeting.

"Everyone, please come here this time. There are two things. The first thing is about your own safety. Now that the Chinese are becoming more and more rampant, I have ordered that all imperial agents and secret services in Shanghai , the organs of our chamber of commerce are going all out to hunt down the Chinese spies.”

"So, everyone can rest assured that our attack will be stronger than ever. Those who dare to provoke the empire can only use their blood to write the medal of the empire."

"According to the information we have received, a purposeful and planned campaign has begun. Everyone can relax temporarily and do their own work."

"Clap clap clap!"

There was bursts of applause in the venue, and this was the best news everyone had heard.

He pressed his hands empty, and then fell silent again.

"The second thing is that the empire needs everyone to contribute. After all, when everyone enjoys the convenience brought by the empire, they should also contribute to the empire. The second thing is that they need to contribute a lot to the empire."

"This is a list, and a donation plan has been drawn up for everyone, but don't worry, everyone, this is borrowed from your major chambers of commerce by the empire!"

"What, you need to borrow again, borrow the money from us!"

"President, this is embarrassing us. We almost can't even eat now. If we continue to borrow like this, our chamber of commerce will really be empty."

"President, can you mention this matter to the higher-ups? If we go to borrow money now, even if we want to borrow, we will be powerless!"

When Kodama had just finished speaking, the people below started discussing one after another. After all, each family is quite difficult.

"Everyone, you are all the elites of the empire, how could you ignore the empire for a little money!" Kodama had to say loudly after seeing it.

"President, it's not that we don't want to borrow. Our chamber of commerce has lent 50 yuan from last year to now, and we haven't seen the money for a while. How can we borrow it!"

"Yes, we have already lent more than 60 yuan. If we borrow any more, our chamber of commerce will go bankrupt. If we continue to borrow, we will have no way to get the money back."

"Yes, President, you also know our situation. The Imperial Army placed an order for us, but we didn't see the money for a while. This makes us do business without even cost."

Zhang Tianhao didn't speak, but quietly watched the performances of each person, complained, and even watched them arguing loudly, he felt helpless for a while.

"Okay, the empire is currently in some economic difficulties, but you believe that the empire will definitely explain to you."

"This time, in order to borrow military expenses for a while, the empire will give you a certain discount again. The chamber of commerce that lent the money will be exempted from taxation for one year from now on. I believe everyone knows how much taxation is in one year!"

"Your annual tax is not a small amount, and everyone can clearly distinguish the benefits. This is the support given to you by the empire."

Kodama had to tell their conditions.

"President, I would like to ask, my club has been loaned 105.6 million yen by the empire for two years, which is almost the majority of our income for two years. Ability, it seems that this loophole cannot be filled!"

At this time, Zhang Tianhao also stood up, raised his hand and said loudly.

"Based on our income last year, it was only about 20 yuan, but there are still various aspects of management. The net income is less than 100 to more than [-] million. Our five-year net income, this money, is not because we don't want to borrow it. It’s because of the powerlessness, besides, the chamber of commerce still needs a lot of funds to operate, it’s a bit difficult!”

"It turned out to be Mr. Mihara. I believe the empire will repay your loan, but the imperial soldiers on the front line are still fighting. As long as they win, the money will definitely not be lost to everyone. Please forgive me. "

Kodama was taken aback when he heard that, but he answered immediately.

"Is there anything else?"

"It's like this. I have been assassinated five times in Shanghai and Hong Kong. I hope the empire can solve this problem as soon as possible. Otherwise, I don't even dare to go out now. If this continues, our chamber of commerce will also die." There's no way it's going to work!"

He just mentioned it to express his personal dissatisfaction, and didn't express his position too much in this regard. Everyone is not a fool, but the interest still cannot be compromised.

Seeing Zhang Tianhao sitting down, Eryu didn't make any other requests. He also knew that Zhang Tianhao was giving him face, but he also knew that some of the luxury goods smuggled by Zhang Tianhao here would definitely not be low in profit.

As for more than 100 million, I feel that Zhang Tianhao didn't take it seriously.

What is the hardest currency now? Naturally, it is grain, coal and the like. As for coal and the like, Zhang Tianhao really has nothing to do here.

It is a commodity almost monopolized by several large chambers of commerce, but a small amount of food can be produced.

In terms of food, his club has started to operate now, but the quantity is not large, and no purchase points have been set up in various places. After all, the purchase points are not so easy to establish.

"Everyone, this is the list, let's take a look!"

Soon the list was sent directly to everyone, and Zhang Tianhao also had a copy in his hand.

"What, this time it's 30 again, which is too much, why don't you sell me!"

"I also have 25, President, why are there so many!"

"Yeah, President, you have to understand our difficulties. We can't keep borrowing out like this. We really don't have much money now. Borrow again, and this time I'm going to go home, and there's no way to drive again. "

The businessmen were also pouring bitter water, but Kodama above was also helpless, but his eyes were quite firm.

"Okay, this meeting is actually to tell everyone about it. From now on, I hope to send this part of the loan here or deposit it in the bank within three days. After all, the front line is urgent and there cannot be any delay."

And Zhang Tianhao looked at the 30 yen amount in his hand, and he was also speechless for a while. The money was borrowed, but it was gone, which made his face quite ugly, although it was only a small number, 30 , which is equivalent to one hundred thousand dollars, but it is also a considerable amount of money.

"Interesting, did Japan's domestic economy have a big problem, which made the military department in Shanghai ask them to donate?"

After thinking about it for a while, he really didn't come up with anything, so he could only give up. This sum of money can be offset with supplies, but he also understands that if he doesn't do this, he has to do it.

"I have to find a way to get this sum of money back, damn it!"

He cursed directly, and then left the chamber of commerce helplessly with everyone.

"Mr. Mihara, what are you going to do this time?"

"There is no way, as long as you are still in Shanghai for a day, then we must give the empire an explanation, unless you leave Shanghai and go to other places to develop, but where else can be safe now!"

He glanced at the businessman in Shangcun, with a bitter face, and sighed helplessly.

"Damn it, we are always asking for money from small chambers of commerce like us. Those big chambers of commerce have many times our assets, and they only pay so little. Isn't this obviously bullying us?"

"Then can you tell them?"

"I can't say it, but I still feel very uncomfortable. I'm going to sue this matter to China!"

"If it's useful, then I'll be fine. Tell me, it's a waste of time! Why don't you think of a way, how to make more money!" Zhang Tianhao glanced at him, then turned around and left.

And Sun Xinxin followed behind him, and she also understood what the purpose of this meeting was. She was also a little bit aggrieved, but she couldn't have any dissatisfaction, after all, she was just a secretary.

"Mr. Mihara, let's go drink. I'm in a bad mood today, damn the chamber of commerce!" Uemura cursed and suggested again.

"No, it's not safe, let's go back, safety first!"
