The reason why Chen Mingxiang wanted to purchase silk reeling factories and silk weaving factories in Suzhou and Hangzhou was not purely to make money, but also to protect local mulberry farmers, silkworm farmers and part of the silk industry.

For Japan, the silk weaving industry is the main source of fiscal revenue, and it occupies a considerable weight. Naturally, the oppression and raid on the occupied areas of China is even heavier.

First of all, Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. took over control of 129 silkworm breeding farms in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, dumping Japanese silkworm eggs, but Japan provided all varieties that have been eliminated, and silkworm farmers suffered a great loss and continued to produce. Decline.

Secondly, Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. exercised control over the cocoons in the occupied areas. Before the War of Resistance, the purchase price of 100 catties of silkworm cocoons was 400 yuan, but the purchase price given by the Japanese now is only 80 yuan. Cut down 80%.

In this way, only one-third of the purchase price paid was cash, and the rest was issued with a promissory note, which would be cashed after the cocoons were reeled into raw silk for sale.

The silk reeling factories and silk weaving factories in Suzhou and Hangzhou went bankrupt, and the silkworm farmers and mulberry farmers went bankrupt. China's silk weaving industry was fatally destroyed.

Chen Mingxiang knows that he has no ability to change all of this, but he thinks he can do something within his power. On the one hand, he can buy bankrupt factories and give those skilled workers a bite to eat. On the other hand, he can loan mulberry and silkworm farmers to restore raw materials. Production capacity.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, Suzhou had 2,300 electric textile machines and 3,000 hand-made textile machines, but currently only 500 electric textile machines and 1,000 hand-made textile machines have been registered. It was either destroyed or stopped because of the war. Up production.

Chen Mingxiang's silk reeling plant and textile mill accounted for one-third of the number of machinery currently registered in Suzhou. This also made Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. jealous and kept complaining about him.

To withstand the huge pressure from the Japanese chaebols, the Japanese military needs to be strongly supported. Therefore, he not only has to give these powerful Japanese officers red envelopes, but also has to take out a portion of the proceeds as dividends. Sheltered by the Qingxiang Committee.

His factory does not pay any fees, that is, water, electricity, materials, and labor. This is called cost, and the rest is all profits.

The selling price of 5,000 yuan per piece of silk is cut down by 60% as the cost of the silk weaving factory and the silk reeling factory. Based on the net profit of 2,000 yuan, the production of 2,000 pieces in one month is 4 million legal currency.

Chen Mingxiang had previously promised to give Li Shiqun and Qingqi the four reds, and the sales were in his hands. When doing the accounting, the maximum was two million legal currency.

The four-component red is 800,000 fiat currency, and another 200,000 fiat currency for the gendarmerie is equal to half of the profit on the book. These greedy and shameless guys should be satisfied.

"It's no wonder that the military police system in our Great Japan Empire is so well mixed. Chen Jun is really magnificent. I am very satisfied with this reward." Shigeto said with a smile.

With two hundred thousand fiat currencies, he could drop one hundred and fifty thousand fiat currencies into his pockets, and the rest would be distributed to the military police and gendarmes as subsidies.At present, the site for pursuing the township is very small. The number of Japanese gendarmerie is only 80, and the number of Kenzo is more than two hundred, and fifty thousand yuan is enough.

"This is only for the gendarmerie on the face of it. I will separately give His Excellency Da Zuo 100,000 yuan per month as a relationship fee to help me maintain the normal operation of the factory. Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. often troubles me. Some things require your presence. solve."

"In addition, the telephone line between Suzhou and the Shanghai stock market is often unreachable, and the telephone line is easily damaged by the guerrillas. I need to give me a radio station in my office to facilitate contact with the Shanghai stock market." Chen Mingxiang Said.

"No problem, this is a trivial matter. Chen Jun is a member of the Imperial Japanese Army Military Police. Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. dares to trouble you. I will naturally coordinate. The radio station can give it to you, but the operator is responsible for the arrangements." Shigeo Kenwen thought for a while and said.

Even if this private transaction is reached, there is the partiality of the gendarmerie. The shit Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. can only hide away. The Japanese are also afraid of the gendarmerie.

Next, Chen Mingxiang spent a few days strolling around in Suzhou City and bought a garden house with a yard as an office. It used to be the residence of a famous family in Suzhou. The transportation here is very convenient and close to the commercial area. The large environment is beautiful, with a Jiangnan garden style layout.

The office is not listed for the time being, because both transactions with the Qingxiang Committee or the sale of silk fabrics belong to his own industry and cannot be listed as Huatong Trading Company. A new company needs to be registered. The office personnel are recruited from the Shanghai Stock Exchange. Send over later.

Now I have to use Shigeto's hand to deal with the suppression of Japanese businessmen. When the interpersonal network relationship between Suzhou and Hangzhou is smoothed, we can find a better backing in Japan. Chen Mingxiang intends to let the Action Division kill this Shigeofumi .

Of course, for the safety of the local people, we can only act secretly and create the illusion of accidental death. Otherwise, the crazy Japanese military police will absolutely dare to carry out large-scale revenge.

"I now have the asylum of the Qingxiang Committee and the Japanese military police. Please let me do it. Choose a group of mulberry farmers and silkworm farmers in the surrounding areas, sign a cocoon recycling agreement, and provide them with living and production funds, which are included in the payment. deduction."

"Give me two silkworm seeding farms for my own use. Don't use the silkworm seed provided by the Japanese. Those are undesirable junk stuff. The output is small and the quality is poor."

"When you go to the countryside to collect cocoons, bring a few more lads who can fight. If the people of Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. dare to talk and play unreasonably, you should beat them first. If you dare to find the factory, you should ask the Qingxiang Committee. The Shigeto agency came forward."

"Follow me to do things, don't cause troubles and don't be afraid of them. Although I am quiet, there is no problem keeping you safe. After the establishment of the office, I will contact me on important matters through the radio." Chen Mingxiang said.

Before leaving Suzhou, he visited his textile factory and silk reeling factory. These two factories are popular in the silk industry in Suzhou City. First of all, the salary is high. Second, no one dares to bully and wants to come here. There is an endless stream of work.

In addition to the lack of supply of raw material silkworm cocoons, which affected the output, other aspects were running well. Chen Mingxiang convened the middle-level and above management personnel of the factory and briefly held a meeting.

He has now paid the protection fee to Qingqi Zhongzuo and Li Shi, and paid the protection fee to Shigeto Noribu. He is very confident. During this period, money can be very powerful, and the Japanese can also be bought, as long as it does not involve underground parties and The mountain city government, no one can touch him.

This time I came to Suzhou for a short time. Everything was in a hurry, and there was no time to deal with his own business. The key is that Chen Mingxiang had bold guesses about the mystery all the time and was eager to go back to verify this judgment. The continents are not far away, just two more visits.
