"With such an expense, can the accounts be balanced?" Lu Ming asked.
"It can be done, but it can't be done on your Fuxing Society's accounts. I have to do it on the accounts of our industry. Fuxing Society's original accounts were very simple, but now there are a lot of mistakes. My father can see through them at a glance.
Besides, if you transfer so much money and make so many accounts, you can't hide it from Ziyuan." Sheng Muyi said.
"Well, it's true. I can't make up the subjects for so many expenses. It would be better if I could do it on the industry's books." Lu Ming said with a smile.
The monthly turnover of Sheng's Industry is tens of millions, and the expenditure of 200,000 yuan is just a glass of water poured into the river, and no one can find it.
"If anything like this happens again in the future, you must discuss it with me first and not make your own decisions." Sheng Muyi said.
"They are really in trouble, otherwise they wouldn't come to me, and I wouldn't take the initiative to do such a thing." Lu Ming explained.
When Mr. Dong begged Lu Ming that day, he really had no other choice. In addition, An Yi had always been at odds with Lu Ming. Mr. Dong also wanted to use this method to ease the conflict.
"Since you helped someone once, how about you help me more and double all the things on your list?" Sheng Muyi said with a smile.
"Doubling it would require too much money, and the balance sheet would be even worse." Lu Ming said in surprise.
"Don't I have to do the accounting?" Sheng Muyi said with a mysterious smile.
"That's not right. If we take in so many supplies at once, the market will definitely rebound, prices will soar, and the government will notice it." Lu Ming shook his head.
"You are stupid, why do you have to buy it from the market? We have so many grain stores, why don't we use those from salt stores? Not to mention cloth, our Sheng family started by weaving. The output of Dujuan's factory in one month
It's several times more than the quantity on your list." Sheng Muyi said.
"Yeah, why did I forget this?" Lu Ming also slapped his forehead, blaming himself for being stupid.
Although Sheng's Industry is mainly engaged in weaving, moneymaking, and banking, it is involved in almost all types of businesses. In addition to drug trafficking, opium dens, brothels, and casinos are determined not to get involved, and they also do not smuggle and traffic.
This is the Sheng family's family rule.
All kinds of materials that Mr. Dong wanted, except for those contraband items strictly controlled by the government, were all available in Sheng's Industry's marketing assembly line, and the quantities were large enough.
This way you don't have to go through all the trouble of buying supplies in the market.
What Lu Ming is most worried about is that buying a large amount of supplies will cause market prices to soar. Then the government departments will find out the reasons and it will be easy to find out which merchants bought these supplies.
"Why don't I give you any money? I'll get all these supplies for you, and I'll add them to the accounts of the entire industry." Sheng Muyi said.
"No, I still need 100,000 yuan." Lu Ming said.
"You want to buy something else? You're really very calculating." Sheng Muyi gently poked Lu Ming's head with her finger.
Lu Ming had no choice but to tell him about buying radio stations, arms and medicines.
"With so many things, is one hundred thousand yuan enough?" Sheng Muyi asked with concern.
"It should be enough. If it's not enough, I'll ask you for more."
"Okay, I'll have someone send you a hundred thousand yuan banknote tomorrow." Sheng Muyi said cheerfully.
Lu Ming originally thought that it would take a lot of good words to get Sheng Muyi to agree to help, but he didn't expect that Sheng Muyi seemed to be more enthusiastic than him, so he couldn't help but think more.
What's wrong with Mu Yi? It seems that she is a little too enthusiastic about this matter. Is she just doing this because she is afraid that he will stab her?
"What are you thinking about? Is there something you haven't said yet?" Sheng Muyi asked when she saw that he was silent.
"No, there's nothing else." Lu Ming replied hurriedly.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements to buy according to the list when I get back. Hey, why are there pickles on this list? There are several tons." Sheng Muyi looked at the list carefully and found it strange.
"People say that my favorite thing is pickles." Lu Ming couldn't help but want to laugh when he remembered An Yi's expression when he shouted "pickles".
"Isn't this batch of goods destined for the Northeast? Only northerners like pickles the most." Sheng Muyi still wanted to get some news.
"It's not because of the lack of salt. If there was enough salt, who would want to eat pickles?" Lu Ming said with a bitter smile.
"Then bring more salt, there is no shortage of it." Sheng Muyi's idea was the same as Lu Ming's original idea.
"Since they ask for pickles, let's give them to them," Lu Ming said.
"Okay, we happen to have a pickle factory. It seems that there are many tanks of pickles and pickles in stock. This time we can clear the stock at once." Sheng Muyi waved.
"Do we still produce sauced meat?" Lu Ming licked his tongue and asked.
"Of course, don't you know? Almost half of the pickles and soy sauce sold in Shanghai are produced by our pickle factory," Sheng Muyi said.
"How could I know so much? I just spend money." Lu Ming scratched his head and laughed at himself.
He knew very little about the Sheng family. He didn't even know how many companies or trade names the Sheng family owned. As for the number of Sheng's stores with a full range of categories and spread all over the country, I'm afraid only Sheng Youde knew clearly.
It can be said that in the towns and cities in Jiangnan, as long as there are shops, one or two of them must belong to the Sheng family.
After being separated from Sheng Muyi, Lu Ming felt relaxed all over his body, like a bird bursting into spring, his body light and airy.
Sheng Muyi doesn't have to worry about doing things. If necessary, she can mobilize the resources of the entire Sheng Group. Purchasing these supplies is a piece of cake for her.
Half of the supply problem has been solved. The only thing that is still uncertain is the arms and medicines. We can only wait for Kenta's reply.
Lu Ming knew that the matter of arms and medicines could not be rushed and had to wait for an opportunity, but he was determined to get it done, no matter what the price.
Mr. Dong in Wanguo Apartment looked at the message that had just been translated and was dumbfounded.
The reply message from the headquarters contained only two simple words: Approved.
He was forced by An Yi to submit the application to the headquarters at noon, saying that in order to better protect the identities of the two of them, the two of them no longer acted as a fake couple, but applied for marriage.
In his experience, the reply from the headquarters usually takes the next day at the fastest, and sometimes even takes several days. Unexpectedly, this time the reply came in less than an hour.
Mr. Dong's heart suddenly seemed to be clenched tightly by a big hand, and he was a little breathless.
The little bit of excitement I had last night has now turned into fear.
Getting married and starting a family has long been a dream for him. He has already prepared to be single for the rest of his life. If there is a chance to start a family, it must be after the revolution is successful.
Mr. Dong firmly believed that the Chinese revolution would definitely succeed, but he was not pessimistic about his predictions. He believed that it would be difficult for him to live to see that day, so he gave up the idea of getting married and starting a family.
Now that a wife has arrived out of nowhere, it is really hard to accept.
"Lu Ming, it's you who hurt me, what should I do?" Mr. Dong whined in his heart.
"How's it going? Have you heard from the headquarters?" An Yi came over and asked.
"It can't be so fast. It will take a few days anyway, and the headquarters also needs to study it." Mr. Dong pretended to be calm and said.
"But I heard a telegram came over. How did the headquarters reply?" An Yi asked.
Although she didn't understand telegraphs, she could still tell the difference clearly when telegrams came in after sending them out.
"The superior has given other instructions." Mr. Dong prevaricated in a panic.
Normally, An Yi could not check the headquarters cables at will, but Mr. Dong's panicked expression betrayed him. An Yi was a woman with keen senses, and she noticed it immediately.
She suddenly snatched the translated telegram from Mr. Dong's hand. A corner of the paper was torn, and An Yi saw the two words on it: Approved.
She immediately became angry, waving the telegram and saying: "Dong, what do you mean, are you regretting it?"
Mr. Dong said weakly: "An Yi, I think we are a bit hasty in doing this. Should we think about this matter again?"
"What's there to think about? How willing do you think I am to marry you? I do it for work. If it weren't for work, I would never want to get married in my life." An Yi said in a rapid-fire manner.
Mr. Dong sat on the sofa, holding his head in his hands, trying to calm down, but his mind was buzzing and he couldn't calm down.
An Yi continued to press Mr. Dong: "The organization has agreed, which is equivalent to an order, and we must execute it!"
