Chapter 386: The truth is revealed!
Guo Qiying ordered Guo Jinshun to be locked up, and Lu Shan could only watch that this was someone who disciplined his son and he was not easy to interfere. Moreover, Guo Jinshun also needed to calm down. Locking him would also help his feverish mind calm down.
"Mr. Lu, what is said above is true?" Guo Qiying also expressed doubts after reading Yuji Yamamoto's testimony.
"It shouldn't be fake. He confessed to others, and this confession about Uesugi Ruoyun would not be fake either." Lu Shan said, "It would be no good for him to lie!"
"Then where is my poor niece?" Guo Qiying asked.
"I'm afraid only Uesugi Ruoyun knows this best!" Lu Shan said.
"Then I want to ask Mr. Lu to ask the truth. If Xiaoyun is really......" As he said that, Guo Qiying couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Don't worry, Mr. Guo, I will do my best to find out the truth." Lu Shan solemnly promised.
"Then I'll thank Mr. Lu!" Guo Qiying pondered for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Lu, I have a little meaning. I don't respect me. I hope Mr. Lu's subordinates!"
Guo Qiying waved his hand, and two strong men behind the old housekeeper came over with a small box. The box was very heavy and the shoulder pole was slightly bent.
"This is……"
"Open!" Guo Qiying ordered.
The vermilion box was placed on the ground, and the lid of the box was opened, and silver dollar strips wrapped in red cloth were neatly placed in the box.
"Old Guo, this doesn't work, I can't accept it!" Lu Shan said flatly.
"Mr. Lu thinks there are too few numbers here?"
"No, no, Lu definitely didn't mean that." Lu Shan hurriedly explained, "I don't receive any money without merit, let alone so much money, I can't accept it!"
"If it weren't for Mr. Lu, the Guo family would almost become the traitor and traitor, and that would be robbed." Guo Qiying said, "If it were just 10,000 silver dollars, it would be given to Mr. Lu as military funds!"
"If Mr. Guo was given the money to Lu himself, Lu would definitely not want this money. If Mr. Guo was donated to the Self-Defense Army as military pay, Mr. Lu could not let Mr. Guo down on his sincere anti-Japanese patriotism. I could accept this money, but I would like to use this money to buy something from Mr. Guo!" Lu Shan said.
"What?" Guo Qiying asked in surprise.
"Rice!" Lu Shan said, "The Self-Defense Army is in short supply and cannot last long by seizure, so we have to find another way to raise food and grass. The taxes cannot be raised for a while. We are anti-Japanese armed forces, not bandits. So, if Mr. Guo can fold these oceans into rice for us, it will be of great merit!"
"Mr. Lu is really a hero, I admire him!" If Lu Shan accepted the money, he would not say anything, but he could not help but look down on him in his heart. But since he exchanged the money for food, it means that he is a selfless person and has no selfishness for the money!
"Old Guo has been too rewarded. Just be in his position and plan his politics!" Lu Shan smiled indifferently.
"Okay, autumn grain is not on the market yet. The warehouse in my hand is full of Chen rice. The market price is 11 yuan per duct. I don't make money. You are 10 yuan per duct. Here, 10,000 yuan per duct. How about giving you 1,000 yuan per duct? " Guo Qiying said.
"Ten yuan per tumble, the price is fair!" Lu Shan nodded.
One tuft is nearly 150, and this thousand tuft of rice is 150,000 kilograms. According to the amount of one and a half kilograms per person a day, this 150,000 kilograms of rice is enough for ten days to eat 10,000 people!
But if you save a little food, half a month will not be a problem!
Lu Shan calculated that if there were 100,000 people, it would only be enough for one day to eat, and there would not be much food in Dongzong. He had only prepared one month's food, but he thought about buying some in Lushan and raising some at the destination, which should be enough for food.
Now, the number of people has doubled and a half. With so many more people, even though the financial resources of the Dongzong are still supported, it is not a solution to go out but not enter!
I have a million silver notes on my side, leaving them for emergency use. Should I exchange all the money for food?
It is said that no food is allowed to gather troops. As long as you have the food in your hands, you will not be afraid that Tang Juwu and others will not bow their heads!
"I wonder how many rice there is in the granary in Guo's hometown?" Lu Shan thought for a moment and asked.
"If this is not included in the inventory of rice shops in each county, it is 10 to 20 million kilograms, right?" Guo Qiying said.
Lu Shan was shocked when he heard this. As the No. 1 Mi Shang in Qingyuan County, the Guo family has such a wealthy family!
"Mr. Guo, if I want 100,000 dan of rice, how long will it take for you to get it all for me?" Lu Shan asked.
"100,000 dan?" Guo Qiying was shocked. If this business was really done, then the Guo family would be completely tied to the Self-Defense Forces!
The Self-Defense Forces could not defeat the Japanese, but the Guo family could not escape. If the Japanese attacked him for this matter, the Guo family would have the possibility of overthrowing!
To be honest, he is so old, but he doesn’t have the courage to destroy his family and relieve the difficulties!
"Mr. Lu, aren't you making me embarrassed?" Guo Qiying said with a disgrace.
Lu Shan could see Guo Qiying's psychology at a glance. It was good to notify the Guo family to support the anti-Japanese war, but this was reserved. Of course, it is still unknown whether the Guo family would be a traitor. But if the Guo family had done this transaction of military rations with the Self-Defense Army, it would be impossible to hide it from the Japanese. Unless the Self-Defense Army can always control Ying'ermen Town, the Guo family would not dare to take such a big risk to tie themselves to the Self-Defense Army!
Secretly, some funding for the Self-Defense Forces is fine, even if it is half sold and half given away, as long as the evidence is not captured by the Japanese!
Although the Self-Defense Army has won several battles, Guo Qiying’s decades of fighting in the business world are still very clear about the situation outside. At present, the Self-Defense Army has only gained some benefits. It is hard to say when the Japanese mobilize the army to encircle and suppress it.
"Old Guo doesn't need to deliver the goods in the same place to 100,000 dan of grain!" Lu Shan said slowly.
"Oh?" Guo Qiying's eyelids twitched, and the delivery was delivered in batches. This was a way to prevent the Japanese from notice. As long as the Japanese could not catch direct evidence, they would not make things difficult for the Guo family!
"This business is not impossible, but if it is..."
"Within a month, I will send someone to inform Mr. Guo when and where to deliver the goods to whom, how?" Lu Shan took out a cowhide envelope from his clothes and handed it over!
"Inside are ten promissory notes of HSBC Bank's 100,000 oceans, unknown!" Lu Shan explained.
"HSBC Bank Promissory Note?" Guo Qiying was shocked and reached out to take it. He opened it, took out one casually, and then nodded after carefully examining it. "Yes, it is HSBC Bank's bearer promissory note. It uses ten, totaling one million silver dollars!"
"Old Guo, we have done this deal?" Lu Shan asked.
"It's done, come and make a name for the person!" Guo Qiying ordered.
"No need, I believe Mr. Guo's character is a person of 100,000 dan of rice. It's not a load less than me, right?" Lu Shan shook his head.
"Aren't Mr. Lu afraid that I will break the contract?" Guo Qiying said.
"No one in this world can ruin my Lu Shan's contract. If he has the courage to break the contract, I will make him pay ten times or even a hundred times the price!" Lu Shan said.
"Okay, since Mr. Lu trusts me so much, there is no need to establish this document!" Guo Qiying took off a jade ring from the middle finger of his left hand and handed it to Lu Shan, "This ring has been with me for many years. The shopkeepers of my Guo Family Mixing know this ring. As long as you hold this ring, you can call less than one thousand dan of food!"
"Old Guo gave this ring to Lu?" Lu Shan said in surprise.
"Yes, I hope to make this friend Mr. Lu!" Guo Qiying said.
"Since that's the case, I'll accept this ring!" Lu Shan nodded. This time he was not pretentious. This ring was worth a thousand dan of food, and it could save lives at critical moments.
"Old Guo, I want to take Uesugi Ruoyun away. Please don't stop Mr. Guo!" Lu Shan solemnly took the ring, then clasped his fists and said.
Guo Qiying thought for a moment, sighed and said, "Okay, she will ask Mr. Lu to take it away, but if she is really my sister's child, please show mercy to Mr. Lu!"
"If she was really Shangguan Yun, she must have been bewitched by the Japanese and embarked on the road of treason. We will naturally be educated and persuaded, but if she is stubborn, I can only be sorry to Mr. Guo!"
"Okay, the national law is ruthless. If she commits a heinous crime, it will be difficult for the national law to tolerate it!" Guo Qiying said.
"Thank you Mr. Guo for your understanding!" Lu Shan bowed deeply.
"Well, I heard that the Self-Defense Army does not have regular military uniforms. I have a batch of squeezed cloth in my hand. If Mr. Lu doesn't dislike it, I want to give it to the Self-Defense Army as military uniforms, okay?" Guo Qiying said.
"That's really thankful for Mr. Guo!" Lu Shan said happily.
"This batch of cloth is not here, but is in a warehouse at Fengtian Station. It has been stacked for more than half a year!" Guo Qiying said.
"In Fengtian, this is not easy to deal with!" Lu Shan frowned slightly.
"This batch of cloth was originally ordered by the Northeast Army and was also used for military uniforms. However, since the September 18th Incident last year, this batch of cloth has been accumulated in my hands. At that time, the Northeast Frontier Defense Administration had already given me a deposit of 30%. It was originally agreed that the final payment would be paid after delivery. Who knows..."
"How many cloths are there?" Lu Shan asked.
"About 10,000 pieces of foreign cloth imported from Japan, the old man used this material and it has not changed!" Guo Qiying said with some remembrance.
"How many sets of military uniforms can a piece of cloth be made of?" Lu Shan was not proficient in this tailoring clothes, so he asked Guo Qiying. Although he had a ready-to-wear factory, he never asked about such small things.
"If you make tops, ten pieces and fifteen pants. If you have one set, it will probably be about six sets!" Guo Qiying said clearly.
"If these ten thousand pieces of cloth are used to make military uniforms, how many sets of military caps can be made?" Lu Shan asked.
"If the material is used properly, it can be made about 63,000 sets, but it is not certain. Maybe it is less than this number, or more than this number, it depends on whether the material is used accurately!" Guo Qiying said.
"Sixty-three thousand sets are enough!" Lu Shan nodded. He planned to disarmament more than half of the self-defense army. With the troops of the former East Column, it is estimated that the total number of troops will be about 60,000 to 70,000, and will not exceed 70,000!
First, change the regular army's outfits. If you cut it down, you can wear the old ones first. You can change them slowly after it is available!
"Can Mr. Guo still buy such cloth for military uniforms?" Lu Shan asked.
"Now, it's not impossible, but this cloth is imported from Japan. If I buy it, the Japanese will definitely know that the Japanese will not ask about the materials used for military uniforms!" Guo Qiying said.
Lu Shan thought about it for a while and knew Guo Qiying's difficulties. This is the case for the time being. As for the batch of cloth from Fengtian, he could only find another way!
