Of course, the reason why the two of them are so casual is because the relationship between them is in place. If it were other strangers, it would be so casual when they meet.
Yes, that must be a bad idea.
"There has been a huge demand for medicines recently, and as long as we get the stuff to the destination, we can make at least five times the profit." Levi then said to Kondo Yoshinori with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Kondo Yoshinori's eyes lit up. He was very happy about making money.
"Okay, I'll take care of the gendarmerie side. I'm getting some customs exemption certificates, and then we'll increase the scale." Kondo Yoshinori said directly before Levi could continue to speak.
"Haha, Kondo-kun, I'm a little surprised by your initiative." After hearing what Kondo Yoshinori said, Levi said with a bit of surprise.
"Haha, Li Jun, this is business, isn't it?" Kondo Yoshinori also said immediately.
"Haha, yes, yes." When Li Wei heard this, he had no choice but to laugh helplessly.
By this time, Li Wei finally understood something.
Why does everyone say that Osaka people are the best among Japanese people?
Regarding the people of Osaka, Li Wei also summed up something: apart from fighting, these people are proficient in everything else, and they are even better at doing business.
Not to mention anything else, just look at Kondo Yoshinori.
As an officer, doesn't he know what impact these drugs will have if they are transferred to the Kuomintang-controlled areas?
But what do people do?
People only care about making money!
Alas, getting along with Yoshinori Kondo for a long time gave Levi some illusions, that is, Japanese people don't like to fight, but like to make money.
"Haha, Li Jun, I know that you have certain connections in the China-controlled areas, and you even have a close relationship with the Wuhan government. That's why our smuggling business is so smooth."
"After all, these days, as long as our things enter China's ruled areas, there are no problems at all. We even get our money back safely every time."
"I'd be a fool if I couldn't see that."
"But this matter, for me, is actually a good thing. As you know, I am not interested in fighting or anything like that, but when it comes to making money, hehe, I am very happy."
"And these days, I have earned a lot of money from the trading house, and I am very prosperous. To be honest, even in the base camp, I have never enjoyed such a life."
"So, as long as Li Jun and I make good money together, then Li Jun, I can still guarantee your safety in Shanghai, and you will even become the most popular Chinese in the Shanghai garrison."
"You know, in the current Shanghai garrison, I have already won over all the middle and lower-level officers. As for those high-level officers, hey, people in this world, no matter how high they stand and what their status and reputation are, but they
All have weaknesses and preferences.”
"So, for these high-level officers, I also have a way to win them into our camp. By then, Shanghai will be our brothers' world." Kondo Yoshinori said to Levi with a smile on his face.
After listening to Kondo Yoshinori's words, Li Wei felt a little happy but also a little helpless.
Yes, I found the right amulet.
However, Kondo Yoshinori also indicated something in his words. He had some guesses about his own situation, but he would not interfere with these things.
The prerequisite for not interfering is that you don't do anything excessive.
As for what is considered excessive, that is up to Li Wei himself.
But that’s fine, there are many things that will be good for each other once we discuss them.
"By the way, Li Jun, is there any way you can bring back some bristles and tung oil from there? These things are now strategic materials."
"And now that the relationship between China and Japan is tense, these things are even more compact, so if you can get some of these things back, then I will come to negotiate with the Army Logistics Department. I can guarantee that you can earn at least ten times more.
Money." Kondo Yoshinori looked at Levi and then asked softly.
After Li Wei heard Kondo Yoshinori's words, he was in a trance. How could he not know about boar bristles and tung oil!
Not to mention bristle, it is a necessary material for the maintenance of guns, weapons and equipment.
As for tung oil, that is even more important.
You know, as the Sino-Japanese war continues to develop, these two things will become the two pillar products that China exports in exchange for foreign exchange and weapons and equipment.
You must know that China is the main producing area of tung oil, accounting for about 90% of the world's annual output, so it completely occupies a monopoly position internationally.
Other countries, such as the United States and the Soviet Union, have always wanted to introduce tung oil, but have failed, so they have been spending money to purchase it. In 1937 alone, the Kuomintang exported 100,000 tons of tung oil.
And the most important thing is that the main production area of this thing has always been concentrated in the southwestern rear area, so even if the Japanese are aggressively attacking now, it really has no impact on this thing.
Of course, just because these two things are so important, they are now completely purchased and sold by the Kuomintang, and private individuals have no access to them at all.
Moreover, China and Japan are currently fighting to the death, and the Kuomintang Party will not give these things to Japan, so Japan needs and desires these two things very much.
It is because of this that many people actually want to smuggle these two things.
After all, it is really profitable, and what Yoshinori Kondo said about making it tenfold was not a lie.
As for whether you can do it yourself?
That’s not nonsense!
Others can smuggle, but you can't?
I'm not a virgin bitch.
Besides, the money you smuggle and sell will be used to buy supplies, and then take these supplies to the Kuomintang-controlled areas. This is called wool coming from the sheep.
And considering the influence of the Secret Service, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake to get something like this out?
"Okay, I'll get in touch first and see if there's anything I can do." Levi nodded to Kondo Yoshinori.
Although he believed that as long as he reported it, Dai Li would directly agree and send someone to take charge of the matter, but he did not agree directly. It is better to be reserved.
"Haha, okay." Kondo Yoshinori heard Levi's words and immediately laughed.
"Come, come, drink tea, drink tea." Levi also picked up the tea cup and said to Kondo Yoshinori.
"Haha, I won't bring such good tea to you next time. It's a complete waste." Kondo Yoshinori said he was disgusted, but his hands were not idle and he also picked up the tea cup.
"Hey, then I'll go find Keizi and say bad things about you." Li Wei also said sarcastically.
As his words fell, Kondo Yoshinori was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
To be honest, he really felt very comfortable and relaxed when getting along with Li Wei. This was something he rarely experienced, so he was also happy to get in touch with Li Wei.
Then the two of them drank the tea like cows chewing peonies, then looked at each other, and they laughed again.
After that, the two chatted for a while, and then at the urging of Chiyo Keiko, they walked out of the study. Then, with a burst of gratitude from Li Wei, they had a delicious meal carefully prepared by Chiyo Keiko.
