my wife is a consul

Chapter 606 United Corporation
Zhengdong Trading Company has been operating here for a while, and has just moved to the new area. It occupies a very large area. The main building is a five-story office building. There are several buildings in the company's yard, with tens of thousands of square meters of warehouses. The dormitories for management and employees are three-story apartment buildings.

Now the main entrance of the company's office building is hung with the signs of "Zhengdong Railway Company" and "Zhengdong Law Firm".

There are three companies, the office occupies the first floor, the trading company and the railway company each occupy the second floor.

The trading companies all employ local clerks from Japan, and the management consists of both Westerners and Montenegrins.

The Zhengdong Railway Company actually acquired the Austrian Vietnam Railway Company.

Xianquan Port originally belonged to the Aoyue Territory, and as the Aoyue Division fell into the sand in the northern part of the Empire, the Oyue Lord Kawamoto Dainobu committed suicide in fear of guilt, the old and new interest groups of the Aoyue Territory were reshuffled, and the Zhengdong Railway Company also Taking advantage of this opportunity, the acquisition of the Austrian-Vietnamese Railway Company, which was not well managed, is equivalent to obtaining the operation of all railway lines in the Austrian-Vietnamese Territory.

Of course, the actual mileage of the Aoyue Territory Railway is not that much, the inner part of the Aoyue Territory from the Aoyue City to the Kyoto main line, more than 100 kilometers, three stations, plus a branch line from the Aoyue City to Xianquan.

Moreover, the branch line to Xianquan was only for freight.

In addition to owning the railway line in the territory of Aoyue, the Aoyue Railway Company also has five locomotives, twelve passenger carriages, and ten freight carriages. It has opened a weekly passenger train from Aoyue City to Kyoto, and from Xianquan to Kyoto. The freight schedule depends on the cargo volume at the terminal, and is not scheduled regularly.

After Zhengdong Railway Company acquires it, it will increase passenger and cargo capacity according to the operating conditions.

The headquarters of Zhengdong Railway Company is a bit small, occupying the second and third floors of the five-story office building.

The fourth and fourth and fifth floors are the headquarters of Zhengdong Trading Company.

On the first floor of the office building is Zhengdong Law Firm, which provides legal services for two friendly companies and is also open for business.

Together, the three were registered as Zhengdong United Company in the Xianquan Public Board of Directors, and the office in the imperial capital was the Kyoto office of Zhengdong United Co., Ltd.

……

The third floor of the No. [-] apartment building in the backyard of the United Company is the residence of the highest level of the company, and the people above the vice president level live in the United Company.

Room 301 is especially larger, with five bedrooms and two living rooms.

301 is Lu Ming's new residence. His new identity is the special consultant of Zhengdong United Company. In fact, several bosses follow his example. He is the No. [-] person of the United Company. manager.

At this time, there were four people sitting in the large study room. In addition to Lu Ming, Bai Yumeng, the general manager of the trading company, Han Jinsheng, the head of the law firm, and Li Junheng, the representative of the United Company in Kyoto who came back from Kyoto to report on his work.

In addition to being the actual controller of the joint company, Lu Ming is also the director of the Xianquan Special Work Department of the General Administration of Secrecy.

Bai Yumeng served as the deputy director of the special work department.

The two are old partners. Bai Yumeng, a fat man who looks like a Maitreya Buddha, looks like a businessman. It's hard to imagine that he is actually a well-trained senior agent.

Li Junheng is a professional, but his deputy who is still in Kyoto belongs to the special work department.

Li Junheng mainly reported the situation of dealing with the dignitaries in Kyoto on behalf of the United Company.

The dignitaries in Kyoto also have different attitudes towards the companies that Zhongzhou people set up business in Xianquan.

Generally speaking, the old-school interest groups that have been suppressed by the Yamamoto group are happy to see the arrival of the Zhongzhou people, which can reduce their pressure and balance Yamamoto's aggressive arrogance.

When Li Junheng left, lawyer Han Jinsheng also left.

Lu Ming sipped tea and pondered for a while, when someone knocked lightly on the door outside, and it was Shigeyoshi Kawamoto, the former head of the Oyster Division, who was brought in.

The Austrian Yue Division has ended its historical mission, and some people have settled in the Northern Territory.

But there are more soldiers who are homesick and want to go back to Aoyue.

After Shigeyoshi Kawamoto took his seat, he looked at Governor Zhang, the current Director Zhang, with great expectation.

Lu Ming tasted tea and sighed: "It's still a bit difficult to emphasize justice. You know, even if you use the name of the Austrian Vietnam Brigade, it is true that you are His Royal Highness's mercenaries, but if there are about ten thousand Aoyue soldiers who come back like this, it will be inevitable." It has caused too much trouble, and suspicious people will feel that we have plans for Okugoshi, and we rely on you to take the lead. Tell me, is Yuu Yamamoto a suspicious person?"

Shigeyoshi Kawamoto's full of expectations turned into disappointment.

Lu Ming continued: "The peace between us and Dongying is hard-won, and you should know that the Central Continent people have never been a very aggressive group. As long as Dongying stops the idea of ​​meddling in the Northern Territory, we don't want to have a war with your country. Yes, so, we don't want to carry out this kind of provocation, because if the Aoyue Division returns with our help, it will add too many variables to the Aoyue Dao. You should know that almost all the lords in Japan don't want you to come back , It would be best if all of you died in the Northern Territory."

Shigeyoshi Kawamoto clenched his fist hard, but Governor Zhang's words were sharp but true.

"We don't need to care about what Yamamoto thinks, but we can't be enemies with all the Japanese daimyos." Lu Ming said, "Do you think that's the reason?"

Kawamoto Shigeyoshi nodded silently, and Okushi became the leader surrounded by wolves, and most of the lords got a share of the pie.

Lu Ming thought for a while, "However, if it's you, or a few of your senior generals, who want to bring their relatives back, of course it's fine."

Kawamoto Shigeyoshi's eyes lit up, but he finally shook his head and said bitterly: "How could I do this? It will chill the hearts of the soldiers who followed our expedition. I can go home for a few days this time, and see my old mother. This is already an unexpected favor, my lord governor, thank you!"

Lu Ming said: "You and I don't have to be polite. In fact, you said, I don't want the Oyue boys to go home? If time drags on for a long time, the junior sergeants will become irritable. In order to go home, it is possible to mutiny."

Shigeyoshi Kawamoto's heart trembled, "Master Governor, we live in the Northern Territory, and we are only grateful to the prince. How dare we rebel?"

Lu Ming said: "Don't be too sensitive, I'm just talking about human nature. If it were me, I would go crazy if I stayed in a foreign land for a long time and couldn't return to my hometown!" Railway police, there are [-] places, let's come back first, although it is a drop in the bucket, but let them see hope, choose those who have few brothers and sisters in the family, if they are the only child, they will be selected unconditionally, so let's go back to some of them secretly .”

Shigeyoshi Kawamoto was overjoyed: "Good!" Although the [-] quota is not many, as Governor Zhang said, it can give soldiers living in foreign lands the hope of returning home.

Then Shigeyoshi Kawamoto was a little puzzled: "How much does the Otsuki Railway Company need [-] police officers?"

Lu Ming said: "Prepare for a rainy day, the company must expand." Looking at Shigeyoshi Kawamoto, "Do you think there are too many people?"

Shigeyoshi Kawamoto paused, anxious to explain something, Lu Ming smiled and said, "I'm just joking, you go back and announce the good news to choose someone."

"Yes!" Kawamoto Shigeyoshi stood up and saluted the army. Before he knew it, Governor Zhang seemed to be his immediate boss.

The uncle and lord of the clan has committed suicide, all the branches of the clan have fallen and scattered, and some have taken refuge in the new master, and the rest of the life is very difficult. It seems that there is no one else to rely on except Governor Zhang who can help the Chuanben family change the fate of the Chuanben family up.
