Chapter 586: Drugs
Shanghai South Railway Station, Joint Transport Office.
Since Chen Yang took over the position of Minister of Joint Transport, the office of the Joint Transport Ministry where Yoshisaburo Yamamoto worked was changed to the Joint Transport Office.
His position was also downgraded from minister to transport officer.
To put it nicely, he is a transportation officer, to put it bluntly, he is an office clerk.
In other words, even low-ranking female officials like Shiraki Risa who sat in the office could tell him what to do.
How could Yoshisaburo Yamamoto, who was always proud and arrogant, bear this?
"Knock knock knock." A knock on the door interrupted Yoshisaburo Yamamoto's thoughts.
Furukawa Hisasaku pushed open the door and said solemnly, "Mr. Yamamoto, I have some bad news. Manager Barbera of Huafu Fund refused to return the equity pledge to us."
"He said that your contract was signed with Manager Jason. Firstly, the time has not come yet, and secondly, Manager Jason has gone to Hong Kong Island to attend a meeting at the headquarters and has not returned yet."
“If you want your equity back, you have to wait at least a month.”
"Moreover, if you want to get your shares back now, they ask you to deposit three million yuan into their designated account first and pay a certain amount of liquidated damages."
"This is outrageous! They are trying to add insult to injury," Yamamoto Yoshisaburo was immediately furious when he heard this.
Furukawa Hisasaku sighed and said, "From a business perspective, I think they did nothing wrong."
"The contract we signed is for a minimum loan of six months. Now that they haven't received the interest payment, they will definitely be unhappy."
"Besides, they obviously know that you have the ability to repay the loan, so they will naturally try to earn as much as possible."
"Baga, a bunch of profiteers." Yamamoto Yoshisaburo said angrily, "If they piss me off, I'll have someone burn down their foundation."
Furukawa Hisasaku shook his head and said, "Mr. Yamamoto, actually, you don't have to be so anxious now."
"As long as the funds remain in our hands, we can still make money."
Yamamoto Yoshisaburo was slightly stunned, and said with a wry smile: "Furukawa-kun, things are different now. Now most of the supplies in Shanghai are concentrated in Chen Yang's hands."
"If we want to get goods from him, regardless of whether he is willing or not, even if we get the goods, without his approval, our goods cannot be circulated effectively."
"All I can do now is follow his orders and adjust the transport trains step by step."
"After all trains are running stably, we will try to open up channels and start the business of selling materials."
Furukawa Hisasaku said: "Yamamoto-kun, you misunderstood, I'm not talking about the material business."
"I received news that there is something that can bring much greater profits than selling supplies."
Yamamoto Yoshisaburo's expression froze, and he asked hurriedly, "What is it?"
Furukawa Hisasaku said: "Medicine, penicillin."
Yamamoto Yoshisaburo couldn't help but frown when he heard this: "Furukawa-kun, stop joking."
"This drug was jointly developed by Mitsubishi Group, Sumitomo Group and Osaka Chamber of Commerce, and the major shareholder behind the scenes is Chen Yang."
"My father had suggested to the president that we buy the patent rights to this drug from Chen Yang, but the president was unwilling to do so. He believed that this drug was needed by the empire and we couldn't have it all to ourselves."
"You want me to buy medicine from him now, there is no way Chen Yang will agree to that."
Furukawa Hisasaku laughed and said, "Who said we should buy from him?"
"The drug has been developed and the first batch of 100 boxes will arrive in Shanghai on the 27th of this month."
"We can ask Mr. Sato to buy it."
"I've inquired about it. This drug is now sold for at least two hundred dollars a bottle on the black market."
"And the mainland only allocated 260 yen to the logistics department, so there is at least three times the profit in the middle."
"If we can get this batch of drugs, as long as we move in and out quickly, the shortfall from our previous investment in the logistics department will be quickly filled."
Yamamoto Yoshisaburo hesitated and said, "It's still not appropriate. Regardless of whether Mr. Sato is willing to give us the medicines, these medicines are now the focus of attention. After arriving in China, they will be distributed to logistics departments in various places."
"If we take their share, we will be stealing food from their mouths, and those logistics officials will definitely not be happy about that."
Furukawa Hisasaku said: "Mr. Yamamoto, you are still considering whether others are willing or not."
"You spent so much money on them and helped them fill such a big hole. Now, isn't it reasonable for you to just take some medicine?"
"Besides, when the drugs arrive in China, they still have to go through our hands. If you keep the drugs and convert them into cash for them, what can they say?"
Yamamoto Yoshisaburo swallowed his saliva and said, "What Furukawa-kun means is to kill first and report later?"
"Is this okay?"
Furukawa Hisasaku said in a deep voice: "What's wrong with this? Last time, Chen Yang caused a train to derail, and 4,000 boxes of supplies were burned to ashes."
"You can also do the same thing. When the time comes, you can say that there was an accident during the transportation of the materials and you can give them the money to compensate them. I believe they will have no objection."
"Yamamoto-kun, this is your chance to turn things around,"
"After this batch of drugs is discounted, all the problems will be solved. By then, let alone equity, you will have a large amount of funds in your hands, and you can negotiate with Chen Yang face to face."
"Although we didn't get the right to transport goods to China, we can at least build a material sales network for China."
"This way, you will have an explanation to your local authorities, and at least it will not affect your participation in the competition for succession."
Hisasaku Furukawa's words touched the heart of Yoshisaburo Yamamoto.
His purpose of coming to China was to get more cards and participate in the election for the chairmanship of the Black Dragon Society.
Now, the local side is preparing to develop material sales by leveraging the advantages of warehousing and transportation. If a complete material sales channel can be established in China, then there will be some trump cards at that time.
As for the transport network, he has no illusions.
It was too complicated and the waters were too deep for him to control.
It doesn't matter. After all, Chen Yang is a Chinese. No matter how capable he is, he can only be a director and is not eligible to run for the president.
When I become the president, Chen Yang will still have to obey my orders.
It doesn't matter if I'm at a disadvantage now. One day, I'll be able to stand on a high position and look down on this guy who brought shame to me.
When the time comes, I will have a hundred ways to make his life miserable.
"Furukawa-kun, what you said makes sense. Let's talk to Lord Sato first. I hope he can be reasonable."
A raging fire ignited in Yoshisaburo Yamamoto's eyes again, and in an instant he seemed to have found confidence again.
"If this old guy insists on not agreeing, then don't blame me for going all out. I want to see if he can bear the consequences."
