The Shiliupu Wharf is busy and lively, the loading and unloading work is fierce, and the horns of cars rang through the night sky, but the coal merchants of the Shanghai Stock Exchange are all gathered in the meeting room of the Shanghai Gas Club. The individual's heart is as cold as freezing.

Indeed, 300,000 quintals of briquettes are not enough for the monthly consumption of the entire Shanghai stock market, but Chen Mingxiang really transported so many briquettes from Tianjin to the Shanghai stock market, which poses a fatal threat.

"We are in a very passive situation this time. The resources that Chen Mingxiang can use in the Shanghai stock market far exceed our imagination. The vehicles participating in the transportation of briquettes at the terminal tonight are not only the automobile transportation team of Huatong Trading Company!"

"As far as I know, most of the trucks are from the Marine Corps Command and the car fleet under the Third Fleet Command. Note that this is not his full strength. When necessary, he can even mobilize the commander of the 13th Army. The transport vehicles of the subordinate army serve themselves."

"Calculated based on the current traffic volume, the 300,000 dan briquettes will be transported in the morning on the 15th. In other words, on the 15th, both of us will start to break our wrists." President Hirano said.

The Great Shanghai Gas Club is the upstream supplier of all coal merchants. It is responsible for the allocation and distribution of coal. It can most feel the anger from the government and the military. The empire would rather provide resources to a Chinese man, but also bring down the price of coal. This is a very dangerous signal.

"Kun Hirano, I don't think there is any need to panic. Chen Mingxiang’s maximum output in Jincheng is 300,000 patals per month. We are more than 30 coal mines operating at the same time to satisfy the city’s millions of briquettes. Consumption, how can he sustain the market demand in a short time?"

"I know he is going to unseal the five briquettes factories that were confiscated, but don't forget that as long as we completely cancel the supply of briquettes, the entire Shanghai stock market will immediately enter a vacuum. It is estimated that within a month, there will be chaos due to lack of coal." Noguchi Long said.

It is this time difference that depends on who can survive. The bet is that Chen Mingxiang can't produce one million catties of briquettes in a month.

Although Lianmei does not provide supplies to small downstream retailers, its own briquettes are still available for sale. Otherwise, if there is no briquettes sales for two consecutive months, they will have a catastrophe. That is absolutely dead, hoarding is not the case. For play.

Lianmeihao sells high-priced briquettes. Some briquettes shops have already set a sky-high price of thirty-five yuan per catty. They are still intermittent. Sometimes they do not open the door for two consecutive days and only sell it for half a day.

Although in this way, the monthly sales are about 200,000 quintals, this invisibly became Chen Mingxiang’s help. President Noguchi’s plan is very insidious. He wants to cut off external sales and completely eliminate the 200,000 quintals. With the cancellation of the incident, risks and pressures are transferred to Chen Mingxiang.

"But doing so may anger the Central China Liaison Department and the Garrison Headquarters of the Xingya Institute. When the time comes to take measures against us, it will not be a trouble, but a disaster!" said Boss Zhang of the Yitai Xinglian Coal Company.

At the moment everyone hasn't got rid of the skin, and Union Coal is only engaged in private actions to reduce the sales of briquettes, and slowly increase the price, selling less and not selling, that are two concepts!

"For Chen Mingxiang to swallow the public concession site, Lianmei will have to kick a group of members away, otherwise, there will be more wolves and less meat, and we will be hungry. We Japanese businessmen are not worried. In any case, we will score a piece of meat. Can you drink it? Soup, that's hard to say!" President Yamashita said gloomily.

Unable to stop Chen Mingxiang’s invasion of the coal market, Lianmei’s business will shrink by more than half. Although the market’s capacity is not small, the other party is not a person who likes to make a fuss. Drinking soup cannot satisfy his appetite. Eat meat, don’t eat it if you don’t run into oil!

"Chen Jun, you are not afraid of Lianmei's playing with the dark, secretly weakening the sales of briquettes, and digging a big hole for you?" Kinoshita Sakae thought more.

This issue also aroused the unanimous agreement of everyone present. It is not possible for Union Coal to do so, but must do it. As a vested interest, they are absolutely unwilling to be taken away from the coal market by others. This method is not uncommon. .

Shopping malls are also battlefields, and their cruelty is no worse than real battlefields. At best, there is no gunpowder. Its lethality and destructive power are sometimes more terrifying than war.

"Actually, my killer is not these hundreds of thousands of briquettes. Generals, please think about the nature of the coal shortage problem. It is not difficult at all to solve this problem, but we want to manage Shanghai in an orderly manner. The city, make full use of coal resources, and achieve the best of both worlds as much as possible while safeguarding the interests of the empire." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

What is the nature of the coal shortage problem?Is it really a lack of briquettes?

the answer is negative!

Briquettes are a kind of fuel products without technical content. The machines make briquettes, and the people make briquettes themselves. The shapes are the same and the functions are exactly the same. The key is coal!

"I understand, Chen Jun, you really deserve to be the God of Wealth in the Shanghai stock market. Your thinking is indeed unique. You can see the essence of the matter at a glance. Your assassin is the tens of thousands of tons of coal coming to Shanghai!" Yanze Qingxuan suddenly realized .

Although it is less profitable to buy coal, it can be sold directly without processing. The common people buy it home, mix it with loess and water in proportion, and then cut into small pieces after drying. It can also be shaken into briquettes for daily use. Life use, besides, the history of mechanical briquettes is far inferior to the history of hand-cranked briquettes. This is Chen Mingxiang’s killer trick to lock his throat!

"It seems that Chen Jun, you are fully producing briquettes, and you also want to take the opportunity to occupy the Shanghai stock market's sales share, because you know that you can't monopolize the Shanghai stock market's coal market. The ecstasy array, diverting their attention, concealing their true purpose!"

"Well done, done beautifully, such a simple truth, why didn't we expect it, and help you desperately fight for resources, Chen Jun, you are really a little fox! Hahaha!" Major General Kinoshita Sakae laughed. .

The people present were amazed at Chen Mingxiang. This guy's brain turned too fast and the methods were too dark. He used the simplest and most primitive method to defeat all the conspiracies!

Similar to this method of operation, let alone lasting one month or two months, as long as the coal supply is timely, he will be a winner forever, without the possibility of being defeated.

Will Japan dare to sell out Chen Mingxiang?Surely not!

Chen Mingxiang is not a pure businessman. Most of his business activities are centered around the Japanese army. It has certain limitations. Unlike those coal merchants, it is entirely out of self-interest. It is still his spoiler that most assured the Japanese army. .
