"Cough, cough, cough!"

Zhang Tianhao was talking excitedly when Mingzhi, who was standing next to him, suddenly started coughing for some reason and looked at him with a strange expression.

His gaze even swept across Fang Chongshan's face. Obviously, only the two of them knew what this meant.

"Yes, the thief really deserves to die, but the problem is that it has already happened. It has been so long, it is still quite difficult to find him."

"Counselor Jing Ping, do you think we should call the police to resolve this matter? Why bother the military police?"

"Don't bother. The Secret Service Headquarters is happy to take over. I believe that as long as I make a phone call, someone will be sent over soon. After all, I am still an Imperial Major, right?"

As Zhang Tianhao spoke, he glanced at the two of them out of the corner of his eye, especially Fang Chongshan, who had cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

Mingzhi is better, and it doesn't seem to be affected much.

"This, this..."

Mingzhi didn't know what to say. After all, Jingping Jiichiro's identity was there, not to mention the others. If one of them was not handled properly, it would directly bring disgrace to the Economic Committee.

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but glare at Fang Chongshan fiercely.

"Counselor Jingping, how about this? Our Economic Committee will help you equip your factory, how about that?"

"This is not good. How can the city government use its money to do things for me personally? This is totally unacceptable!"

Zhang Tianhao also knew that Mingzhi wanted him to give him a way out so that both parties could save face.

"Nothing. I will call on everyone to donate money. The Economic Committee does not need to pay. I believe everyone will support the development of the Empire in Shanghai."

The polite words were still quite loud. At least when it came to Ming Zhi's words, Zhang Tianhao really couldn't find much fault with them.

"But Director Ming, this is only the case for the first factory. What about the other factories? They can't start production either. I can't blame others. I'm afraid they won't even have equipment. This is not a good idea. After all, for the seven factories, others donated money and machinery. I feel a little guilty about that."

"fine!"

Mingzhi's heart sank when he heard this. After all, there were seven factories and he didn't know how many pieces of equipment had been disposed of by Fang Chongshan. It would be very troublesome to get them back now.

The most important thing is that this is not a small amount of money.

"Director Fang, let's put it this way. You are the director of the Planning Department. You arrange for people to do a count to see how many equipment the seven factories are short of. You help me count them, and then you nominate donations. We can't let Consultant Jingping take over the factories and leave them in the same state as they are now."

"This is not good for Shanghai's overall image, and especially not good for Shanghai's economic recovery. If all seven factories were opened, it would at least solve the employment problems of two to three thousand people, don't you think?"

"Yeah!"

Fang Chongshan gently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly.

But his heart was filled with sorrow.

Most of the money was paid by him. After all, he was the one who took away all the machinery and other things. Only he knew how difficult it was to return them now.

If not, he would have to buy these machines, and the money would flow out like water.

"By the way, Director Fang, can you get this done sooner? After all, Consultant Jingping doesn't have much time to deal with it. If you help Consultant Jingping get it done sooner, it will also allow Consultant Jingping to work with peace of mind and think about how to restore Shanghai's economy."

"Yes!"

Fang Chongshan spoke a little more heavily.

But Zhang Tianhao and Mingzhi were so ignorant of each other that they couldn't understand the meaning of his words.

"Thank you so much, Director Ming. So, Lao Wang, gather the managers of several factories and check what machines are missing from the factories. Remember, no over-reporting is allowed. Do you hear me?"

"Then make a list of the stolen machinery and hand it over to me directly. I will then pass it on to Director Ming. This will also facilitate our future work."

"Okay, boss!" Wang An was sitting on the side. He had just heard the conversation between the three people and knew that this was an opportunity. If he could get the machine, the entire factory could be put into operation.

"By the way, Boss, the managers of the six factories are here. Would you like to meet with them?"

"No need. First list these devices and then hand them over to Director Ming. Ask Director Ming for help, and then we will meet to discuss in detail."

"Yes!"

Watching Wang An walk out of the office, Zhang Tianhao picked up the kettle, walked to Director Ming and Fang Chongshan, and refilled their bottles with water.

"You two, the conditions here are shabby, and there's nothing we can do about it. In the next few days, I'll arrange for people to clean it up. As for the machinery, install it as soon as possible. If some machinery is really gone, you can buy it with money, or I can buy it for you!"

After filling himself a cup of tea, he smiled and repeated his plan.

"Great, it turns out that Consultant Jingping has such a big channel. I'll have to trouble Consultant Jingping when the time comes!"

Mingzhi could also understand the meaning of Zhang Tianhao's words.

"There, there, there's only a few days left to buy a lot of equipment. It will be hard to find it after a while."

"Oh, how do you say this?"

"This, this..."

When Zhang Tianhao heard this, he immediately shook his head and sighed helplessly.

"Director Ming, don't ask me anymore. I won't tell you even if you ask me. After all, this is confidential!"

"That's right, that's right!"

Mingzhi immediately echoed and smiled, then changed the subject.

"By the way, Jing Ping Jun, your seven factories seem..."

"There is no other way. I plan to merge the seven factories and move them all here to form an industrial park. Except for the salt factory, all others will be moved together. This way, a lot of resources can be saved!"

"So, I still want you two to help me. I want to buy this piece of land, or exchange the original factory building for the current one. What do you think?"

"That's no problem. I'll give it to you directly and take back your original factory. This way, you might be at a disadvantage!"

"It's okay. I'll take the loss if I suffer. The money isn't mine anyway. It's the debt owed to the gendarmerie. Who will ask the gendarmerie to ask for it later?"

"This, this is not good, right?"

"It's okay. Of course I won't go to the gendarmerie. At least I can pay you back when I make some money here. Otherwise, I have no money at all and no way to pay you back!"

"Right!"

"By the way, Director Ming, I have quite a few factories under my control. Although some of them can be moved here, it is quite troublesome and the workers are far away. I wonder if I can exchange the farm tool factory for the flour mill?"

"A flour mill? That's fine. Why, you want a flour mill? You know, a flour mill is a good mill!"

"No, I'm hiring more workers here. The number will definitely exceed 3,000 to 4,000. Then I can build a small flour mill myself. This way, the food problem can be solved and costs can be saved. There is no other way. Everything has to be considered in terms of cost."

Zhang Tianhao also laughed a few times to hide his embarrassment.

After all, flour mills and rice mills are quite popular.

"Director Fang, what do you think? Consultant Jing Ping wants to exchange the farm tool factory for a small grain processing plant. What do you think?"

"Okay!" (End of this chapter)
