Chapter 909 The Battle of the Salt Industry Five

Zhou Aohai recognized Li Hongfang’s explanation. He also knew that there was a phenomenon of xenophobia in the industry, especially in monopolistic industries like salt. Newcomers who want to enter the industry to gain a firm foothold are not generally difficult, and will be suppressed by the old forces. .

The methods of Li Hongfang and others cannot be said to be wrong, but the people who can be dealt with are not so simple. Can Chen Mingxiang be confused to the present point, can he be a master who is easily calculated?

It is estimated that Chen Mingxiang’s mind and purpose of these people are clear, so he does not have to negotiate with them. That is time-consuming and laborious. He will simply come to a violent crush and ask the gendarmerie to help clear the field. To kick out of this industry, whoever has the biggest fist has the final say.

"What you think and what you can do are two different things. You have to weigh how much food a person eats. I have reminded you a long time ago that Chen Mingxiang’s Haiyuan Salt Company is not simple, but you can’t listen. You think you are right with Chen Mingxiang. Waiting status?"

"Now it's troublesome. These salt merchants have fallen into the hands of the gendarmerie. The most important thing is that a large amount of salt was found. This shows that the gendarmerie has long been staring at you and is waiting to choose a time to start!"

"I'm telling you, this time the incident is really troublesome, and I have been charged with hoarding, price-raising, and bad-natured crimes. Maybe someone really wants to lose their heads. I'm not kidding you. It is not common for Japanese military police to kill people!" Zhou Aohai said.

This is not really to scare Li Hongming. The former Japanese Huazhong Salt Industry Co., Ltd. needed to use the power of these old salt merchants to implement a salt ration system. However, as the Huazhong Salt Industry Company wants to acquire Huazhong Salt Industry Co., these old salt Business is no longer useful to the Japanese.

To kill people, it couldn't be easier for the Japanese military police, and they can be killed without a reason, not to mention that they are still grabbing the tail of these salt merchants!

"Minister, I beg you to save them. This is the shareholder of the Huazhong Salt Company in the future. Without their local support, our salt tax revenue will inevitably suffer a great loss. Director Chen’s Haiyuan Salt Company, but I never pay taxes!" Li Hongming pleaded.

"What you said is accurate. Chen Mingxiang's company still needs to pay taxes? It is either the Japanese military police or the Japanese Marine Corps, and the garrison headquarters and the consulate general in Shanghai are supporting them. Even if he wants to pay, who would dare to eat the bear heart and leopard. Go get it?"

"Chen Mingxiang has always done things well. He will not kill these salt merchants. As long as you don't take the initiative to provoke him in the future, he is not willing to cause trouble for himself, but I have to tell you that he was confiscated by the gendarmerie. Table salt, it is impossible to come back, you have to be psychologically prepared." Zhou Tuohai said.

The gendarmerie was asked to arrest people and close the shop. He still has a sense of measure?The Huazhong Salt Industry Company is an enterprise under the Ministry of Finance. You are turning the cart before the horse, right?

"That's more than 10,000 tons of coarse salt. According to the current market, it is worth tens of millions of Chinese vouchers, Minister, can you think of a way to get a part of it?" Li Hongming was a little distressed.

This is a bit untrue. The shipping price of salt from the Lianghuai Saltworks is not so high. He calculated it based on the current market price. A ton sells for 3,000 yuan, and 10,000 ton is 30 million yuan.

"Are you still thinking about asking me to get the goods out for you? Naive! Since the headquarters of the gendarmerie in Shanghai started, do you think it's a joke? These seized salt should be taken as a ransom for them. Is money important or life important?"

"Because of this incident, the negotiation of the acquisition of Huazhong Salt Industry Co., Ltd. was interrupted, which prevented the Ministry of Finance from recovering the salt tax. I don't know when it will be restored. Hong Ming, you are the director of the Huazhong Salt Industry Company I selected. Long, Chairman Wang is very upset and has also questioned your ability."

"In the future, you must be cautious and cautious. Don't do some self-defeating behavior. You can't beat Chen Mingxiang in Central China, and you don't want to think about it. His roots are in the special high-level class and special agents of the military police headquarters in Shanghai. The headquarters, now in control of the Superintendent, as long as he wants to know, you have no secrets with him."

"Actually, you should be thankful that Chen Mingxiang is a relatively law-abiding person, and he hasn't gotten so many ills of the secret service. Otherwise, it's up to you to provoke him time and time again and want to cut his money. It can kill you, it's not difficult for him at all, and you can do it by just saying hello!" Zhou Tuohai said.

Li Hongming couldn't help feeling cold all over when he heard Zhou Aohai's words. He really didn't think of Chen Mingxiang's identity because of Zhou Aohai's cover. However, after Zhou Aohai reminded him, he woke up in an instant. Up.

Not only did Chen Mingxiang come from the secret service headquarters, but he also had a good relationship with Li Shiqun. And Ma Xiaotian, the head of the Jinling District of the secret service headquarters, is now the Deputy Chief of Police Department.

The infamous Secret Service Headquarters is more murderous than the Japanese military police. There are too many ways to make him disappear. He should be happy with today’s result. If it really breaks Chen Mingxiang’s financial path, to At that time, Zhou Tuohai's face was not good enough. It was like killing one's parents. This was a saying most often said by businessmen.

"You inform the salt merchants everywhere to immediately pick up the bill of lading at the headquarters of Shanghai Haiyuan Salt Industry Company, and then approach the local gendarmerie to take out the 10,000 tons of salt seized and put it on the market quickly. It must be sold at the prescribed price. "

"My requirement is very simple. Let the common people buy salt in the shortest time. Special circumstances are treated specially. Each person can buy two kilograms of coarse salt at a time, regardless of gender. This will also help them quickly occupy the market and expand in the local area. Influence." Chen Mingxiang said in his office.

"Good Director, I'll call and contact the salt dealers I can contact later, and ask them to tell each other to come to the Shanghai stock market as soon as possible. What kind of punishment will these arrested salt dealers receive?" Wu Ziying asked.

"Don't they want to monopolize the industry to make money? This batch of salt is a punishment. The market value is 30 million yuan in coupons, and a grain of salt will not be returned. It is equivalent to bankruptcy and disaster prevention, and they will spend some time in the gendarmerie prison. , Taste the taste of drinking cold water."

"I know what you mean by this sentence. The new salt merchants naturally want to take this matter to uproot all the old salt merchants, but this is absolutely impossible, and the Jinling government will not agree."

"They have dominated the industry for many years, and they have accumulated deep contacts in the military and political circles. They are also deeply rooted in the local area. Besides, I don't intend to kill them." Chen Mingxiang said.

"Director, you are worried that if you do this, you will personally support another monopolistic power, so you plan to let the two sides form a competitive relationship?" Wu Ziying asked with a smile.
