Chen Zhen sat on the main seat, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and started cracking them without looking at the noisy Zhu Andong next to him.

Zhu Andong, who was left out in the cold, didn't care, but took out two bottles of Remy Martin and showed them to Xiao Anzi, who was sitting next to him, to see if they were in line with Director Chen's wishes.

The price of 20-year-old Rémy Martin is quite high, which is more in line with the level of today’s wine shops.

When Xiao Anzi arranges to treat guests to dinner, there is only one rule: only choose expensive ones, not the right ones.

In addition, the foreign wine business in Harbin has been monopolized by the Chen family. All hotels purchase goods from Chen's winery. If you don't comply at all, the store will be inspected and closed immediately, and they will be accused of harboring resistance elements.

The entire Harbin hotel industry is full of complaints, but there is nothing that can be done. After all, the barrel of the gun is in the hands of others, which means that your wealth and life are also in the hands of others.

"This wine is good. I'll give you two more bottles. I haven't seen you for a few days. How come you, Boss Zhu, have become so obsessed with everything?"

"This meal will be recorded on the Supervisory Office's account. Ask me to sign it next month!"

Seeing Zhu Andong, he prepared two bottles of wine. Xiao Anzi sneered and began to teach Zhu Andong a lesson.

Zhu Andong was naturally happy when business came to his door. As for the Tumo star falling on his head, he could completely ignore it.

"It's the villain's fault. I'll ask someone to prepare a few more boxes right away."

"By the way, I have a new group of Belarusian girls here. Do you want to call a few to liven up the atmosphere?"

Zhu Andong asked the waiter in the box to get the wine, and then said softly.

Hearing this, Chen Zhen threw the melon seeds in his hand back on the table, coughed lightly, attracted everyone's attention to himself, and said, "Forget it for today."

"Fifth brother must be exhausted from all the hard work.

"It's just a simple dinner to catch up with the wind and wash away the dust. If there is any good program, we will talk about it tomorrow!".

Zhu Andong was a good seller, but when Chen Zhen didn't use it, he didn't say anything. He just held hands and looked at Chen Zhen with a flattering look on his face.

Chen Zhen was so frightened by Zhu Andong's look that he thought there was something wrong with his face, but he touched it and found nothing wrong. When he thought about it, he knew that this old traitor wanted to ask for something.

"Boss Zhu, we have known each other for a long time. If you have something wrong, just tell me!" Chen Zhen didn't bother to show off and asked directly.

Seeing that his strategy was successful, Zhu Andong's face became more wrinkled, and he said flatteringly: "I hope you can see the clues."

"How about you, Director Chen, you have a pair of sharp eyes! You can tell what I, Lao Zhu, am thinking at a glance."

"It's really a small matter. I need Director Chen to give me an idea."

"Yesterday, Chief of Staff Wang of the Security Command called all of us who maintain the meeting and said that they had military affairs discussions."

Hearing this, Chen Zhen had doubts in his heart. Zhang Wenzhu led his troops to Rehe, and together with Zhang Haipeng, they fought hard with Tang Yulin.

There is only a deputy chief of staff left in the garrison headquarters to look after his hometown. How can there be a chief of staff Wang?

"Sir, this is Wang Dewen. It turned out that the deputy commander of the Sixth Brigade was kicked off because he drank the blood of soldiers."

"It was our gendarmerie that found it. Wang Dewen is unlucky because he was shot at gunpoint. He can only act in accordance with the law!"

"I don't know who I came from, and I went to the Security Headquarters to be the deputy chief of staff. Because I was the least qualified, I was left to look after the house!"

Seeing Chen Zhen's confused look, Xiao Anzi interrupted Zhu Andong and explained the details of Chief of Staff Wang.

A defeated general under his command is not worth mentioning.

Chen Zhen nodded and asked Zhu Andong to continue.

"This is a military order. We didn't dare to delay, so we rushed to the garrison headquarters together."

“Only when we arrived did we realize that this was for us to raise funds.”

"It is said that banditry is rampant near Mao'er Mountain. The Ministry of Military Affairs has issued an order for the Binjiang Provincial Security Command to send troops to suppress the bandits."

"As the provincial capital, Harbin contributes the bulk, taking 70%, and the rest of the military expenditure is collected by other cities."

"In a normal year, we would have paid, but last year was a bad year, and every household didn't make much money."

"If the amount is small, several of our big businesses will grit their teeth and come up with it."

"But Chief of Staff Wang opened his mouth and asked for 600,000 Manchurian new coins, which we really can't get out!"

Regarding Wang Dewen's "The Lion Opens His Mouth", Zhu Andong complained endlessly.

Six hundred thousand Manchurian new coins, which is six hundred thousand yen.

This Wang Dewen really dares to squeak!

Xiao Anzi was also shocked by this amount. When the cannon was fired, there were ten thousand taels of gold.

It's just an adjective!

The 38 caps imitated by Fengtian Arsenal only cost more than 200 pieces each, while the genuine ones produced in Hokkaido, Japan, cost 156 pieces each.

The heavy machine gun costs 10,000, the light machine gun costs 3,000, and the mortar is slightly more expensive, but only costs 6,000.

(The gun price data is based on the loss report of the Northeast Army. There are 36 150mm mortars, worth 135,000 yuan. The average gun/36=3750 yuan.)

(However, the production cost of the Fengtian Arsenal is higher than that of the Hokkaido factory. Yuan Datou's exchange rate with the Japanese yen was one to one on the surface, but in fact it was one to three. However, Japan later implemented the gold standard, so it became one to one again.)

Six hundred thousand Manchurian new coins was enough for him, Wang Dewen, to form two reorganized regiments. He was not afraid that this matter would spread to Xinjing, and the Military Law Office would take notice and come to arrest people!

Xiao Anzi cares about money, but Chen Zhen is more concerned about the suppression of bandits that Zhu Andong talks about.

The main brigade of the Binjiang Provincial Security Command has gone to Rehe, leaving only a few local security groups. If you rely on these people to suppress bandits, you will die.

Even if the main brigade was present, it could not defeat the volunteers on the mountain. They all followed the Kwantung Army, building up their momentum, carrying supplies, and acting as orderlies.

Who gave Wang Dewen the courage to go up to Mao'er Mountain and fight for his life with the volunteers!

Doubts lingered in my heart, and I had to continue to use Zhu Andong's words.

So, Chen Zhen pretended to be nonchalant and said with a smile: "Six hundred thousand is not much!"

"If you say that others complain about poverty, I, Mr. Chen, believe it. But when you, Boss Zhu, complain that you have no money, I am quite surprised."

"The crops may depend on God's temper, but when will the casinos depend on the gamblers?"

"Not to mention your dozen or so brothels and opium dens."

"Wouldn't you be able to earn back the money in two or three months?"

"Boss Zhu, you are so noisy that you have no money, why don't others have to go to the streets to beg for food?".

If Zhu Andong can get rich, then! This sarcasm didn't hurt his face at all, and his face didn't even turn red.

"Ouch! My Lord Chen! You have wronged me!"

"Yes, I have a lot of business under my name."

"But you also know that I am just a man who works hard. There are many major shareholders behind me, and I only earn a little bit of money to survive."

"This amount of money is too big, and it is not something that our family can afford."

"The other presidents also know that I have a relationship with Director Chen, so they asked me to intercede with you."

"I have prepared all the benefits and will deliver them to your mansion tomorrow!"
