Chapter 143 The power of [-]% profit!

Chapter [-] The power of [-]% profit!
  "It's not that difficult."

Shimen, inside Suzuki Fanji's office.

A Japanese expert held a new Jinan coin in his hand and said in a proud tone:
  "The printing press, paper and ink used by Balu Printing for this kind of currency are all very ordinary and are common products on the market, but some anti-counterfeiting printing techniques are added."

"It's easy to copy."

“Paper, in particular, is very easy to damage and can be copied very well.”

"With Dongxing Company's technical capabilities, it will take about a month to succeed."

"If it's local, even a week will do."

"Yo Xi."

Suzuki Fanji was immediately overjoyed.

Use the joint coins issued by the Locust Army and the Bank of the Republic of China, as well as miscellaneous coins collected in the market, to exchange for silver coins at the Eighth Route Army base area in southern Hebei. Even though Tubal Road only gives a [-]% discount, the printing cost of his currency is very low, and the miscellaneous coins are also There is no cost and in fact the profit is almost [-]%.

But the Eighth Route Army was limited to one month.

After one month, there will only be a [-]% discount, and redemption is limited to non-merchants. After two months, Tubal Road will stop redemption.

Although importing goods to the Tubal Road base area, especially the primary industrial products that the empire is very good at manufacturing, can earn a lot of profits, the profits are naturally far less than direct monetary prostitution, and there are certain risks.

Suzuki Fanji was unwilling to give in.

So he resorted to his old trick - counterfeit money.

If fake Jinan coins can be printed in large quantities, the profits will be even higher than directly exchanging the joint coins into new Jinan coins and then into silver dollars.

"Let Dongxing Company study it."

"The sooner the better, but the effect must be guaranteed."

Suzuki Fanji warned.

Although the local technology is stronger, once the local is allowed to intervene, the majority of the profits will be taken away by the local. As a result, the credit he gets will be much less.

"Hi!"

The Japanese technician responded loudly.

···
  "Biplane transport aircraft."

Yang Village.

Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong looked at the list of general supplies on the table and discussed how to choose.

Although Brother Lu has not released a new cooperation for a long time, after the monthly material usage statistics review is excellent, three more materials can be added, and after the Japs Alliance flag is captured, ten new materials can be added.

After seizing the twenty new supplies from Shandao United and Xitian United, Li Yunlong chose medicines and medical supplies, such as quinine to fight malaria, painkillers, surgical instruments, etc.

The medicine devils have blocked it even more than thieves, and can only be obtained through Brother Lu.

Twenty types are actually not enough.

There are many medicines and medical supplies in the list, and [-] types are actually barely enough.

The only good news is that Brother Lu is really good at medicines and supplies. The medicines are nominally given according to the maximum consumption of the independent regiment of [-] people. In fact, they are enough for [-] wounded people to use at the same time.

More than enough to supply the entire army.

So currently, the independent group still has three types of supplies that can be added.

The first is to choose a biplane transport aircraft.

Then a transport battalion was formed, equipped with six biplane transport aircraft, with [-] sorties of fuel and lubricants.

"There are enough types of food, and we can grow the vegetables we need ourselves."

"Choose paper."

Zhao Gang said:

"The paper made in the base area is hand-made, with low output, unstable quality and high cost."

"Today, printing textbooks and newspapers requires paper, and there is a huge gap."

"And printing currency also requires good paper. The ones imported from outside are too poor and the quantity is small."

"it is good."

Li Yunlong nodded and looked at the list in his hand.

In the current list, all the weapons and equipment that could be selected were selected, and the remaining medicines accounted for the majority. The rest were ordinary supplies. Soon, Li Yunlong selected two types of paper.

Printing paper and newsprint.

Printing paper is divided into several categories, which are combined into one material. Common ones are used to print books and brochures, and high-quality ones can be used to print base currency to prevent forgery by the Japanese.

Newsprint is used to print news.

"Two hundred kilograms per person!"

Finally, Li Yunlong filled in the quantity.

The independent group has [-] people, with an average of [-] kilograms per person, totaling [-] tons per month.

Is this a lot?

Not much at all!

This time, a Japanese division came to raid the Taiyue base area. In order to reduce casualties, a large amount of paper was needed to print defense brochures for the entire base area.

And as long as it's not military supplies, as long as the quantity isn't particularly outrageous, such as five thousand tons, Brother Lu is always very liberal.

will be approved.

For example, today the Independent Regiment has [-] people, [-] military horses, and [-] mules, and can obtain [-] tons of grain, [-] tons of canned meat and lard suet every month.

Moreover, paper is also a necessity in the base area. The people need this to paper the windows!
  If it weren't for the fact that the name of the Taiyue Base Logistics Center couldn't be used, Commander Li Da could fill [-] tons per month.

"Too bad there's no ink."

Li Yunlong felt a little pity.

The base area is still short of ink, but it's not on the list.

“Ink is easy.”

Zhao Gang smiled slightly.

Compared with paper, the demand for ink is not small. But ink has one advantage over paper: it has a higher specific gravity and is easier to transport.

Based on the current situation in the base area, the solution is actually very simple.

Even some ink demand problems cannot be solved. Why is the headquarters planning to spend [-] million silver dollars per month to consolidate the economy of the southern Hebei base area, stabilize the currency, and create a window to the outside world?
  ···
  "Penicillin, five grams, five million units, fifteen thousand yuan a bottle."

"What kind of medicine is this?"

"Grab money!"

Ze County,

Today's ten thousand silver dollars were not exchanged until one o'clock at noon.

The few merchants who came to the base area but did not take their turn, exchanged the miscellaneous coins and joint coins in their hands into new Hebei Nan coins, and then began to look at the counter in the bank.

Although people have been engaged in agriculture, industry and commerce since ancient times, money and silk have attracted people's hearts, so there has never been a shortage of businessmen. Even in times of war, there is still an endless stream.

The price of penicillin on the cabinet shocked several businessmen.

"But this bottle is quite pretty."

Several people quickly shifted their attention and turned their attention to the writing on a blackboard.

These are the supplies purchased daily by the base area.

“Is the price of imported printing ink so high?”

Looking at the first line of information on the blackboard, several businessmen clicked their tongues.

The price of ink purchased in the base is three times the price of foreign ink on the Shanghai market.

And it indicates a large amount of acquisitions,

The total demand is tens of tons or even hundreds of tons.

In other words, as long as you buy a few bottles of ink in the Shanghai market and transport them to Jinan, you can make twice the profit. Simply put, one silver dollar becomes three silver dollars.

Two hundred percent profit.

Although the journey is long and there are difficulties such as Japanese garrison, preserved fruit garrison and bandits. Especially for little devils, they will probably be confiscated if caught.

But those who can do business these days are all capable.

Moreover, two hundred percent profit.

Several people's eyes lit up, then they looked at each other and acted without hesitation.

···
  "Three times the price."

at the same time.

Shimen.

After the Japanese businessman Seitaro Shiratori completed the task assigned by the military to exchange a pile of coins into silver dollars, he recalled seeing the blackboard in Sawa County.

The ink purchased by Ze County is three times that of Shanghai Stock Exchange and three times that of Beiping.

Here's the latest news today.

And he,

Shiratori Seitaro,
  Because of poor health and having been infected with tuberculosis, he avoided military service.

Although he was just an ordinary imperial businessman and one of Ttech's informants, he had accumulated some assets, about fifteen hundred silver dollars, by working hard in the Republic of China for so many years.

If one thousand oceans of these silver dollars were used to buy ink.

The merchants of the Beiping Empire already have sufficient quantities in their hands, so there is no problem at all.

Over the years, he has developed some connections within the Locust Army, especially acquaintances in the railway transportation department and the Huaqiao Company, which is indirectly under the jurisdiction of the North China Front Army.

There is no problem in transporting this batch of ink to Ze County.

It is estimated that the freight cost including opening up the relationship will be around [-] oceans.

Then, after one trip, his assets can be doubled.

If he borrowed a little money, approached a few businessmen, relatives and friends he was familiar with, and purchased two thousand oceans of ink at a time, his assets could more than triple.

The only problem is that transporting ink to Tubal Road, combined with the recent locust army's strict blockade of newspapers on Tubal Road, seems to be a little risky.

But the value tripled.

"Done!"

After hesitating for more than ten minutes, Seitaro Shiratori finally gritted his teeth.

Just do it, Shiratori Seitaro immediately ran to Beiping.

···
  "Purchase imported ink, double the profit!"

"Yo Xi!"

Also in Shimen.

The position is the head of the Hebei Provincial Secret Service, the person in charge of economic warfare in North China, and the office of Colonel Suzuki Tobi.

When Suzuki Fanji heard the news, it was already noon.

Compared to an ordinary businessman like Shiratori Seitaro, Suzuki Fanji is much more decisive.

He did not hesitate to contact his businessmen and began to mobilize supplies from Shanghai, Beijing, and even domestic sources, and then transported them to the base area through railways and Huajiao Company.

Although the counterfeit currency plan has been launched, Tubalu is not a fool. There is an upper limit to the profit obtained by relying on counterfeit currency, and Tubalu will definitely be on guard.

Therefore, a two-pronged approach is necessary.

Counterfeit money destroys and plunders, business makes money legitimately, let’s do it together.

Anyway, ink is not a military embargoed material.

This thing is a primary industrial product. The empire can produce it in large quantities every year and even has overcapacity. Why not sell it to Tubal Road in exchange for military expenses?

Anyway, if the empire doesn't make a profit, there are still some merchants who will sell the ink to Tubal Road. In this case, it is better for the Locust Army to do it themselves.

Wouldn't it be enough to just block the newspapers on Tubal Road?
  When Suzuki Fanji is in this position, he naturally understands that there are only absolute interests in the world.

In his opinion, if the price offered by Tubalu is enough to impress him, he would dare to sell even weapons, ammunition, and medicines.
