Although Chen Gongbo's attitude seems to be very firm, Chen Mingxiang cannot take such words seriously. Now that Mo Guokang has said it, he will definitely offend her if he does not give her some benefits from his coal company.
As the mayor's secretary, Mo Guokang took advantage of being Chen Gongbo's lover to accept bribes, meddle in finance and personnel, and take over municipal government projects. To be honest, she was not short of money at all.
However, her greedy character makes her never miss any opportunity to make money. Once she finds something that she can intervene in, she will reach out without hesitation.
The problem is that today’s occasion is not right!
If it were in her office or home, it would be fine to discuss such a topic. In private, this kind of thing is not a big deal, but it is really inappropriate to make a request in front of Chen Gongbo.
Chen Gongbo once served as an important military and political official in the mountain city government and was in charge of Gan Province. No matter how much he spoiled her, he was still a dignified mayor and had to maintain his image and face.
noodle.
"Your Excellency, the mayor has made a serious statement. The coal industry is a huge industrial chain for Shanghai's people's livelihood demand market. When my coal company is up and running, it will indeed need some wholesalers as intermediate links. Then ask me for benefits.
There must be quite a few people there.”
"Those senior government officials in the city government have very vicious eyes. When they are working hard, they may not see people. When they start to make profits, they will rely on their seniority and rely on their old people to come to them and ask for a piece of cake. I am right
This group of people also felt a severe headache.”
"Since Secretary Mo is willing to help me share some of the pressure, I can only ask for it. I think it's settled. Secretary Mo will first submit a company registration application to the Social Affairs Bureau, prepare a part of the deposit, and then wait for news from me!"
"It takes more than a month for the coal company to start operations, officially put into production, and then rush the goods into the market. In two days, when the municipal government and the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Yuan have negotiated, I will go to Jincheng for a walk.
Come and finalize the coal issue." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
Seeing that Mo Guokang was a bit reluctant to step down, he hurriedly spoke out to save the situation. This woman was an important link for him to maintain a close relationship with Chen Gongbo, and he must not offend her.
Isn't it just a little profit from selling briquettes? With Mo Guokang's help, the coal subsidies from the city government will continue to enter his wallet. He can eat people with short mouths and take short hands. Chen Gongbo can't watch Mo Guokang make money without giving it.
Would you like to repay yourself a little?
According to Chen Mingxiang's plan, not only Mo Guokang, but also sisters He Zhuoxian and He Bingxian will have to open several briquette shops in Shanghai, which will always generate a certain amount of income. It is not difficult to make money from this thing, the key is
Is the supply of goods sufficient and the price reasonable?
Chen Mingxiang never engages in loss-making business. First of all, as long as Chen Gongbo's three lovers are involved in the intermediate and downstream links of his coal company, it means that he has Chen Gongbo's full support, and it is unprincipled support. Otherwise, his market
His eating appearance is too ugly.
Secondly, those government officials in the Shanghai stock market will have to ask to participate in the briquette sales business sooner or later. Can they give up on the business of collecting money just by sitting?
Even though the coal industry is in the hands of the Japanese, they don't even dare to say a word, but in their own hands, they really dare to speak and don't feel embarrassed at all.
At this time, Chen Gongbo had to stand up and support himself, warning this group of people not to take things too far, and everything must be in accordance with the rules.
Chen Mingxiang had already made a plan in the blink of an eye. If these people wanted to purchase goods, they would go to Mo Guokang's wholesale company and rely on their old people to sell their goods. Can you try it in front of Mo Guokang?
"Don't worry, Mingxiang. These city government officials want to share the profits, so just let them go to my wholesale company to get the goods. I want to see which of them dares to gibberish."
"But I think that if we want to get the support of the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Yuan as soon as possible to facilitate our business, the current fire is not fierce enough. You have to add more fire. In this way, I say hello to let the newspapers in Shanghai create public opinion
, to put pressure on the Japanese."
"Actually, newspapers have long planned to report on this matter. The coal shortage is news and not news, but people are very concerned about matters related to their own interests. If several newspapers conduct interviews with the city government, the effect will be even better." Mo.
Guo Kang said with a smile.
I just like to deal with such smart people. They know what to do without you having to say anything! Even though they share part of the profits, they also really contribute ideas and efforts.
The two of them finalized the matter in front of Chen Gongbo. As a result, Chen Gongbo was drinking tea and smoking on the side, as if it had nothing to do with him at all. This was tacit approval!
Subsequently, major newspapers in Shanghai began to fiercely criticize the current coal shortage. They could not openly open fire on the Japanese. They only said that the businessmen of Dazhonglian Coal Company had a large amount of coal briquettes resources, but they were hoarding them for their own whims.
Wanting to make a fortune by raising prices has led to a serious shortage of briquettes in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, which has had a serious impact on citizens' lives.
The Propaganda Department of the Municipal Government took a hint from Mo Guokang and pretended to be deaf and dumb to the press reports on the coal shortage. As long as they were not targeted at the Japanese alone, they ignored the harsh words at all, which was almost an indulgent attitude.
Chen Gongbo accepted an "interview" with two large newspapers in Shanghai, calling on the Japanese Carboniferous Federation and Dazhonglian Coal Company to put briquettes on the market as soon as possible to lower the price, reverse this dangerous situation, and maintain social order.
Stablize.
The city government "adhered to public opinion" and protested again to the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Yuan, and exchanged opinions with the Consulate General in Shanghai.
In order to attract the attention of Japan, Chen Gongbo believed that the city government's intervention was not enough, so he made a special phone call and asked Wang Jingwei of Jinling to negotiate this issue with Mei's agency.
Is the Wang Puppet Government really so kind?
Wrong, this is first of all related to the ruling foundation of the Wang Puppet Government. You must know that the status of the Shanghai Stock Exchange is very important. It accounts for half of the fiscal revenue. There must be no chaos here.
Furthermore, in essence, the briquettes issue is just an excuse and a superficial phenomenon. This is a confrontation between the Wang Puppet Government and the Japanese Government regarding material control in occupied areas!
What is material control? It is the simplest monopoly, which controls the distribution of materials. Everyone knows that monopoly produces the greatest benefits.
"Chen Jun, the coal shortage problem in Shanghai is getting bigger and bigger. Chairman Wang even went to General Matsui to file a complaint. The matter alarmed the cabinet. The Koya Institute headquarters in Tokyo ordered me to eliminate the impact as soon as possible and stabilize the social order in Shanghai. This will
Affects the interests of the empire."
"I heard from General Kinoshita that you plan to intervene in the Shanghai coal industry, forcefully introduce competition, and change this situation. In this way, I will go to Peking with you to meet with Minister Shiozawa Kiyoshinobu of the North China Liaison Department to finalize this matter.
Coal is produced from Kailuan Coal Mine and transported from Jincheng Port to Shanghai City," Taiji Ohta said.
