Chapter 2726 Life is more difficult

And by a small river more than 30 miles away from Shanghai, Lao Zhang took a few students, Lao Tiantou, and Er Wazi directly lying in the grass.

Since it was dark, the Japanese soldiers chased for a while, but failed to catch up, and were beaten to death two of them, and they were so angry that they almost scolded their mothers.

It was just that the sky was getting dark, and it was not easy to find the surroundings, so these Japanese soldiers also gathered outside, lit up a fire to cook, and began to eat.

But Lao Zhang and the other nine could only lie down in the grass, not daring to move, for fear of being discovered by the Japanese.

"Old Zhang, what should we do?"

"Crossing the river, we must cross the river. Now we are on the river beach. If we don't cross the river now, none of us will be able to walk tomorrow morning!"

Looking at the fire not far away, Lao Zhang also had a gloomy expression. After all, he saved four students, and now they were driven to this place by the Japanese.

"Don't make a sound, otherwise none of us will be able to get out!"

He emphasized again in a low voice, and then began to retreat slowly.

Crossing the river during the day will be discovered by the Japanese, so you can only cross the river at night.

Fortunately, it was dark, so they escaped this area, otherwise they might have become corpses by now.

As a few people slowly walked through the water, they did not attract the attention of the Japanese over there, and the Japanese did not expect that the river here looks very deep, but in fact that is the same thing. Of course it refers to the Chinese.

……

The next day, Zhang Tianhao didn't get up until after nine o'clock. He was not ready to get up, but was woken up.

Because someone called just now and asked him to help.

The purpose of helping is that the gendarmerie wants to inspect his dock, and his dock is guarded by the navy. Generally, there is something to do, but if someone dares to come to find something, then the navy is not a vegetarian.

"Master, General Ying Zuo needs us to help check our warehouse, do you see?"

"What about people?"

"He wants to invite you to a special high class!"

"Okay, give the general a face, let the people below wait for me for a while, I'll wash my face and have breakfast, and then go to the extra-high school with him."

He just got up from the bed, washed his face, and when he got downstairs, he saw Shaozuo Qianteng waiting below, but he didn't have much expression.

"Master Qian Teng, why are you free to come to my place today as a guest?"

He asked a question knowingly, and said lightly: "Prepare a cup of green tea for Shaozuo Qianteng, I believe Shaozuo must like drinking tea."

"Mr. Mihara, hello, I was ordered by the general, and I hope your warehouse can accept the inspection of the empire, is that okay?"

"reason?"

Zhang Tianhao looked at Shaozuo Qianteng indifferently, and said in a calm voice, eating breakfast while talking.

"I think the warehouse is owned by the navy. I have no ownership other than the right to use it. If you want to inspect it, you just need to apply to the navy, isn't that all right?"

"Mr. Mihara, don't you ask this question knowingly? It's not like you don't know about our conflict with the navy. However, I still hope that Mr. Mihara can cooperate with our inspection. Otherwise, we have reason to suspect that Mr. Mihara has something to do with anti-Japanese elements."

"Shao Zuo Qianteng, I think your threats are of little use to me. After all, apart from transportation, there are not many industries in Shanghai on my dock. You all know the reason. Does this other place in Shanghai have anything to do with me? , or do I care about the Shanghai market?"

"Mr. Mihara, your club also purchases goods from various places in Shanghai every day. I think your relationship with various places in Shanghai should be good. If so, your company's goods may be in trouble."

"This is a threat. It seems that General Ying Zuo's subordinates are still not good enough. By the way, I heard that something happened last night. Could it be that something happened to you in the special high school again?"

"Mr. Mihara, I think, as a member of the empire, you have developed to such a degree under the protection of the empire, or can you please cooperate with us to inspect your warehouse, what do you think?"

Zhang Tianhao knew that it would not be good if the relationship with the special high school was too stiff, but he still said lightly: "Yes, but you must not damage our company's goods, do you understand?"

"Understood, thank you Mihara-kun, I wonder if Mihara-kun can step up now, and come with me to the special advanced class to meet with the general? The general is waiting for Mihara-kun there."

"You still have to give the general face, let's go!"

He waved to A Feng and the two beside him, and then walked directly outside.

But when he came outside and got in the car, Afeng started the car and drove in the direction of the super high school, with Qian Teng following behind.

……

The streets were still under strict control, and many citizens in Shanghai were greatly restricted from entering and leaving, and many people were even driven aside for re-examination, especially women.

But their car was running smoothly all the way, without causing any waves, as if everything was like that.

"Master, look, the citizens of Shanghai seem to be suffering a lot compared to the first half of the year, and now they are a bit indescribably decadent." Ah Ying, who was on the side, whispered to Zhang Tianhao.

"The current food, the Japanese have controlled the Chinese. This is the strategic material of the Japanese, and most of the food we import from the United States every two months is sold to the navy, and the share in Shanghai is too small. .”

"If you share too little, it's not that you can't have more, but if you share too much, it will arouse the eyes of some people, especially the Kodama agency, and even some Japanese consortia in Shanghai. They don't allow us to sell more. A little bit is fine, but too much will cause big trouble."

He said lightly that every two months, he would release less than [-] tons of grain in Shanghai, but the grain was still within the tolerance of the Japanese.

After all, in Greater Shanghai with a population of more than one million, twenty or thirty tons of grain can't even make a bubble.

But if there are too many, someone will pay attention to it and suppress it. After all, he sold it at a low price, almost because he didn't make much money by selling it.

"Master, the citizens of Shanghai are having a harder time now, should we help them?"

"I can't help, it's not that we don't want to help. From the next time, we increase the amount of food to [-] tons every month. We only buy it for the workers on the dock or the poor. We don't sell it wholesale. We distribute it to them. It is enough to earn a penny per catty for manual expenses, and there is no need to think about other things, and their life is even more difficult."

"Well, if this is the case, it will be more than double the price in the city, and those people will have opinions!"

Ah Ying was taken aback when she heard this, and immediately became a little surprised. After all, Zhang Tianhao's price was too low, and he was yelling at a loss.

"No, no, no, you didn't sell it like this. You sell it in private. If it's really a fair sale, then I won't be dead here. Help them, let the subordinates take me to buy it, and then spread it out. Yes, when we sell it normally, it is more expensive than the price in the urban area, but it is only a little bit secretly sold!"

"This one……"

Ah Ying was taken aback when she heard this, and immediately understood.

Let the brothers under him buy it privately, and then sell it to other people who need it. The price will increase by 1 minute, which is exactly the cost of 1 minute.

"Then the brothers below will definitely thank you. Being able to eat is already a hope."
