Chapter 511 Helping the Boss
Shui Chengjun understood that he had to work harder to let Shi Yuanheng see his value, otherwise he would be squeezed out of this small group sooner or later.

Glancing at Ishihara Trading Company behind him, Shui Chengjun showed a trace of determination in his eyes, and left in a hurry.

"Ishihara-kun, please teach me."

Takemoto bowed his head to Chu Lingyun, with a very sincere attitude. With Ishihara-kun's wisdom, he must be able to guide him and let him understand how to work to satisfy General Matsumoto.

"Takemoto-kun, do you know that there have been many Japanese firms in Shanghai recently."

Chu Lingyun said while pouring tea.

Takemoto was a little confused, but still nodded: "That's right, many new firms have been established. Now Shanghai is the territory of the empire, and many people come here to do business and want to make more money."

"Did you know that General Matsumoto has a younger brother who also opened a business?"

"what?"

Matsumoto was taken aback suddenly, he really didn't know about it.

"General Matsumoto's younger brother runs a cloth shop, but the business is not very good. The main reason is that he didn't choose the right place. There are many newly opened cloth shops nearby. His products are not very competitive, and he can barely maintain it now. "

Chu Lingyun brewed a new pot of tea and said slowly.

"what should I do?"

Takemoto asked immediately, he understood that Ishihara Heng would not mention this matter for no reason, since he said it, there must be a way.

Apart from other things, when it comes to business, he absolutely admires Shi Yuanheng.

Whether it is investing in commodities or investing in people, Ishihara Hiroshi has unique vision and ability.

"You are in the intelligence department. What will happen if someone in those firms violates the prohibition and secretly does business with the Chinese?"

Chu Lingyun smiled, and Takemoto's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood what Chu Lingyun meant.

"But without evidence, I can't attack them."

Takemoto showed some hesitation, and Chu Lingyun smiled again: "The evidence is not difficult. If you want evidence, you can find some means. The important thing is to find out their background before doing anything."

"I see, I'll check right away."

Takemoto got up, just stood up, thought of something, bowed deeply to Chu Lingyun: "Thank you Shi Yuan-kun for your guidance."

Who knows if the business run by General Matsumoto's younger brother has anything to do with General Matsumoto.

Even if he didn't, General Matsumoto would definitely like him if he offered to help. Who wouldn't want their family to live a better life.

He didn't even know about the fact that General Matsumoto's younger brother came to Shanghai, but Ishihara Hiroshi knew about it, and Ishihara Hiroshi's ability in his heart has been greatly enhanced.

The most important thing is that Ishihara Heng gave him some advice today, and he understood what he needs to do in order to repay Ishihara-kun.

General Matsumoto's younger brother has competitors. Doesn't the Ishihara Trading Company have one?

Ishihara Trading Company is in the concession, but many businesses are related to the Japanese.

Defeating Shi Yuan-kun's competitors is the greatest help to Shi Yuan-kun.

Two days later, Takemoto found out the situation of General Matsumoto's brother and his competitors.

The cloth shop is not small, but as Ishihara-kun said, General Matsumoto's younger brother is not very good at running it, and the current business can only be maintained.

It's hard to make money.

General Matsumoto didn't say anything about it to the outside world, and it was even more impossible for him to help out in person.

Takemoto attacked again and again, knocking out the five biggest rivals against General Matsumoto's younger brother Fuxing. The reason is simple. These clothiers have opinions on the empire and suspect that they have colluded with the Chinese.

They smuggled cloth and supplied it to the Chinese army.

Under heavy punishment, there is no one who does not confess.

Five Japanese cloth shops were seized, Takemoto sold the goods to General Matsumoto's brother at a low price, and the shop was taken over by Ishihara Trading Company.

Chu Lingyun will do other business in these shops, so as to avoid people from doing the cloth business later.

These five firms have no background, otherwise they wouldn't be ruined so easily.

"Takemoto, come to my office."

Just after finishing these, Takemoto received a call from General Matsumoto, he tidied himself up and went over immediately.

"General Matsumoto, you are looking for me."

Takemoto stood respectfully in front of the desk, lowered his head and asked.

"Have you closed down five cloth shops that were secretly doing business with the Chinese?" General Matsumoto looked at Takemoto with satisfaction in his eyes.

Hearing what he said, Takemoto was determined.

What the general is talking about is doing business secretly with the Chinese. What does this mean? It shows that the general approves of the case he handles.

"That's right, the responsibility of the subordinates is that they can't tolerate these people using the convenience given to them by the empire, but doing whatever they want for money. So much cloth is sold to the Chinese army, how many clothes can be made for them?"

Takemoto said angrily that the five firms were all wronged and beaten into tricks by him.

But as long as he doesn't tell, who can know?

"Very good, you did a good job. It seems that it is indeed right to let you be the director of intelligence. I was still hesitant before. I was afraid that you would not do well. I was too worried."

Matsumoto nodded in satisfaction. His younger brother's cloth business was nothing to him, but his younger brother saw the empire killing all directions in China, so he wanted to come to pan for gold.

Matsumoto helped him pay for Buxing's capital.

As a result, his business was not doing well, and he came to cry every day, asking his brother to help him find a solution.

What can he do? He doesn't understand business matters, and after a few times, he gets annoyed. As a result, he still hasn't figured out a solution, but Takemoto helps him settle the matter.

His younger brother took the goods from those five companies at a low price and was very happy, so he came over to express his thanks.

Only then did he know that Takemoto helped him solve this big trouble.

"You flatter me."

"Ishihara Trading Company also intervened?"

General Matsumoto asked suddenly, he knew Ishihara Hiroshi, when Tomotaka Hosokawa met him, he said a lot about Ishihara Hiroshi, and even bluntly said that Ishihara Hiroshi is very smart, if he encounters trouble in the future, Ishihara Hiroshi will even can help.

Matsumoto has investigated the Ishihara Trading Company. This firm is really powerful. Not only is the price of goods lower, but also more complete than other firms. No matter if it is Japanese or other firms, they like to buy goods from them.

Shiyuan Trading Company sells at least two large ships of various goods every month, and the business is very large.

The younger brother's five competitors were arrested, the goods were sold cheaply to the younger brother's firm, and the shop was taken over by the Shiyuan firm, who immediately switched to other businesses. It was clear that he was opening the way for his younger brother to make his business better in the future.

With fewer competitors, business will naturally improve.

Takemoto hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "To tell you the truth, General, Ishihara Hiroshi actually instructed me to do this."

Takemoto didn't hide the truth, nor did he dare.

If General Matsumoto didn't ask, he didn't have to say anything, but if he asked, he couldn't lie or deceive.

After the establishment of the literary society, General Matsumoto will definitely go to the literary society, and with Ishihara Hiroshi's ability and skill, he will definitely be able to make General Matsumoto happy.

If they mentioned this matter in the future and found out that he was lying in the middle, he might not only lose his current treatment and status, but even lose everything.

Although Shi Yuanheng has never lost his temper and is a businessman, he has a kind of fear of Shi Yuanheng instinctively.

Shi Yuanheng has a strong grasp of people's hearts, he is very good at doing things, and he is very rich. As for him using his own rights to deal with Shi Yuanheng, he has never dared to think about it.

Hosokawa Tomotaka alone is not a big shot he can resist, he hasn't drifted yet.

The reason why General Matsumoto was willing to accept him and promote him was not because Tomotaka Hosokawa spoke for him.

He has never even met Tomotaka Hosokawa, why would he help him?

The root of everything lies in Shi Yuanheng.

"I know, you go out first."

Matsumoto nodded lightly. Sure enough, there was someone pointing out behind Takemoto. Zhixiao said last time that his classmate is very powerful, not only rich, but also capable.

Before they even met, they helped him solve a big problem.

He is also curious about this Shi Yuanheng now, and he can go to see him some other day. After all, Ishi Yuanheng contributed a lot to the establishment of the literary society.

"Ishihara-kun, you are amazing. General Matsumoto is very satisfied with what I have done."

Leaving General Matsumoto's office, Takemoto immediately ran to Ishihara Trading Company, and gave Ishihara Hiroshi a thumbs up when they met.

Catching a few traders who were secretly doing business with the Chinese is nothing to be credited for, and it is a trivial matter to put it in other places.

But if such a small matter helped the boss, it would be a big deal.

"It's good to be satisfied."

Chu Lingyun smiled and said, how could he be dissatisfied with this kind of thing, General Matsumoto's matter was investigated by Chu Lingyun to Ran Wu.

Feng Yong had already evacuated from Wuhan. After he was done, Chu Lingyun asked him to return to Shanghai first. Feng Yong did a good job this time and completed the task very well.

In the future, it is inconvenient for Niu and the others to come forward, and they can all be handed over to Feng Yong and the others.

……

Wuhan, Party Affairs Investigation Office.

Zhao Zaili lowered his head and stood in front of Old Ghost Xu.

The search failed, he did not find Jian Zhifang, so long time has passed, maybe Jian Zhifang has arrived in Yanzhou, changed his name and changed his surname to start a new life.

Neither people nor money could be found.

What annoyed Old Ghost Xu even more was that he didn't know who leaked the secret. The old man knew that Jian Zhifang was taken away by the Red Party.

Just yesterday, he was called over by the old man and scolded him severely for half an hour.

If it weren't for the old man who personally took command of Wuhan's defense work, he would be very busy and could scold him for two hours non-stop.

Zhao Zaili didn't find anyone, but leaked the news, and Old Ghost Xu was very angry.

"Virgin, humble and incompetent..."

"You are just incompetent. You can't do such a small thing well. You were asked to find someone, but you didn't find it. Bao Shengqun did. He was so generous that he asked you to catch him. He gave you all the clues, but what about you, who did you catch?"

"If you can't catch a live one, you can bring me a dead one. There is nothing. Do you know how the chairman scolded me?"

Old ghost Xu scolded his head and covered his face, and Zhao Zaili didn't dare to lift his head.

After scolding, Old Ghost Xu was still angry, and threw the book on Zhao Zaili again.

He now regrets why he entrusted the task of arresting people to Zhao Zaili and let Bao Shengqun take charge, maybe he has already arrested him.

"Get out."

Zhao Zaili couldn't withdraw, at least not now, but he no longer had any expectations for Zhao Zaili.

The intelligence department couldn't be in the hands of Zhao Zaili. Bao Shengqun performed very well this time, but he was too lazy.

"Pass my order, Wu Weiming, the deputy chief of the general affairs department, was transferred to be the deputy chief of the intelligence department, and Bao Shengqun was promoted to be the deputy chief of the general affairs department and also the head of the equipment group."

Old ghost Xu gave the secretary an order that he could completely control such a personnel transfer by himself, as long as he reported it to his superiors afterwards.

He has great power in the Party Affairs Investigation Office, which is also the result that Er Chen has won for him.

Old ghost Xu most wanted Bao Shengqun to come to the intelligence department, first as the deputy section chief, and then as section chief.

But Bao Shengqun did not agree, he could not force the order.

It's not that he's worried that Bao Shengqun is a foreign worker and doesn't work seriously, but that Bao Shengqun's family is not easy to mess with.

His niece, like her mother, is very strong.

Her mother died early, and she entrusted herself to take good care of her. If Xu Suzhen came to him to cry and make trouble, he would not want to do anything next.

Xu Suzhen can definitely do such a thing.

First raise Bao Shengqun to a higher level, ask Wu Weiming to help him occupy a seat, turn around to appease Xu Suzhen, and then transfer Bao Shengqun to the intelligence department.

At that time, it will not be the deputy section chief, but the section chief.

Old ghost Xu made up his mind, no matter whether Bao Shengqun wanted to or not, he must go to the intelligence department to help him, and he couldn't let him continue to dawdle.

What he lacks most now is this kind of capable and trustworthy own person.

Shanghai, Ishihara Firm.

"Ishihara-kun, you are looking for me."

Shui Chengjun came to Ishihara Trading Company, and he ran over after receiving a call from Ishihara Heng. Ishi Yuanheng's matter was the most important to him, and he couldn't delay for a minute.

"You take these manuscripts and print them into books. Remember, the publishing house discovered these excellent works and asked for printing. In addition, you find some people in advance, and arrange for them to snap up these books after they are delivered to the bookstore."

Chu Lingyun took out two manuscripts, one belonged to Matsumoto and the other belonged to Hosokawa Tomotaka.

The two often discussed literature together, and Chu Lingyun knew all the contents of their manuscripts.

Printing is not difficult, but it cannot be used as a decoration after printing.

These books must be approved.

"Yes, I understand."

"The date when these books are released in the bookstore is on the same day as the establishment of the literary society. Find more people, let the bookstore limit the purchase, and let each person buy one book, and let them ask for the author's signature."

"Okay, don't worry, I promise it will be done."

Shui Chengjun didn't understand the reason why Ishihara Heng did this, but he would meticulously implement what Ishihara Heng explained.

"Go to the accountant to get the money, I've arranged it."

Printing books, finding sailors, and buying books required a lot of money, but the money was nothing to Chu Lingyun.

Matsumoto is very important and must be tied to Wenshe's car.

Chu Lingyun didn't ask Takemoto to do this matter, and he couldn't leave everything to Takemoto. Jun Shuicheng is very suitable, and his role in the literary society is the lowest, so he will be very careful when doing such a thing.

"Hai, I'll go right away."

Shui Chengjun is very happy, Shi Yuan-kun has not forgotten him, just give him a task.

The last time he went back, he planned to apply for a transfer to a department that was not busy in the school, so that he would have more time to serve the Wenshe and Ishihara Heng.

After the transfer, it will be more difficult to get promoted in the future, but as long as Ishihara Heng is satisfied, let alone a promotion, it is no problem to want a better position.

He is very clear about which is more important.

　The monthly ticket is added to Chapter 8, and the work schedule is being adjusted, and it is being repaired to strive for an update of [-] per day.
