"Mushrooms? There are a lot of them. As long as it rains, they are everywhere. We also have the poisonous mushrooms you mentioned. You can really see little people when you eat them."
"If you eat too much, you may suffer from diarrhea or even death."
"However, as long as it's cooked, it's not a big problem. Why do you want this?"
Yang Guangcai asked curiously.
"Just leave it alone and get me a basket first. I'll have a lot of use for it."
"This is easy to handle."
Because it had just rained yesterday, there were a lot of mushrooms growing on the ground, so Yang Guangcai easily collected a basket.
"Thank you very much."
Wei Wu returned to the car carrying the mushrooms.
His soldiers also completed the exchange of goods.
The originally full stores of weapons and medicine were replaced by boxes of cigarettes.
These are in short supply in the Magic City. As long as you take them back, you can make a lot of money.
Looking at the boxes of cigarettes, the soldiers looked at boxes of banknotes.
According to the regulations, everyone involved in the operation will receive a bonus.
Everyone has a smile on their face and feels that life is full of excitement.
Yang Guangcai was even more happy.
Not only did they obtain a large number of weapons, the most important thing was that they obtained a large amount of sulfa, which was in short supply.
This is an anti-inflammatory drug that is as good as gold.
Good things that money can't buy.
With these medicines, those seriously injured people can be saved.
"Quick, send it to the hospital in the rear. One minute earlier and we can save one more person!"
Yang Guangcai greeted everyone, loaded the goods onto the donkey cart, and rushed towards the hospital at the rear.
Wei Wu led everyone back to the coalition headquarters.
He kept some of the cigarettes at the team headquarters, and most of the rest were shipped to various channels for sale.
And he himself came to Shinozuka Kazuo's office with a basket of mushrooms.
Shinozuka Kazuo is a bald old man in his fifties.
Although he is very old, his ambition remains unchanged.
At this time, I was having fun with the two geishas.
You can hear the singing inside even through the door.
"Sacula, Sacula..."
Seeing this scene, Wei Wu felt more confident.
He walked up to an aide-de-camp.
"I am Takeshi Higashikata, captain of the 9th Regiment of the 4th Division. I have important military information to report to Commander Shinozuka."
The adjutant did not dare to neglect and immediately informed Shinozuka Kazuo.
"Takeshi Higashikata?" Shinozuka Kazuo was very familiar with this name.
Because Wei Wu has been moving very frequently recently, even he has heard some things.
"Why did he come to my place if he didn't want to make money? Is he in trouble? No, I have to ask."
Kazuo Shinozuka is still very concerned about his own money.
He immediately dismissed the geisha and summoned Wei Wu.
The two geishas quickly put on their clothes and left.
Wei Wu followed the adjutant to Shinozuka Kazuo's office.
"Colonel Higashino, why did you come to see me?"
Shinozuka Kazuo pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses with a nonchalant look.
"Commander, I am looking for you to report to you on a project involving millions of profits."
"Millions?"
Shinozuka Kazuo almost cried out.
You know, at this time, the cost of building a 1,200-ton coastal defense ship in Japan was only about 6 million.
The cost of building a Xili is only 20 million.
Millions is a huge amount of money for any of them.
Even Shinozuka Kazuo was shocked and a little lost his temper.
"get out!"
Shinozuka Kazuo glanced at the adjutant, and the adjutant saw the point and left.
After the adjutant left, Shinozuka Kazuo said with a smile.
"Higashino-kun, come on, sit down and talk slowly."
Seeing Shinozuka Kazuo's appearance, Wei Wu smiled inwardly, knowing that the fish had taken the bait.
He immediately said with a smile: "Commander, according to my investigation, the total number of imperial officers and soldiers in the southeast theater has reached 2.12 million. According to wartime regulations, during the battle, each soldier's food consumption is three bowls of rice and three bowls of canned meat. There are also dried vegetables, pickles, sugar, salt and even tea.”
"You know, we are an island country with a very poor breeding industry and cannot be self-sufficient in meat supply. We need to use precious foreign exchange to go to the United States to buy meat to feed them."
"This is so shameful!"
"The Japanese are naturally a people who eat grass. How can they waste the empire's precious foreign exchange for the food and drink of ordinary soldiers? This is absolutely unforgivable."
"What do you mean?" Shinozuka Kazuo asked.
"I have a solution."
Wei Wu handed a mushroom to Shinozuka Kazuo.
"Is this a mushroom?"
Shinozuka Kazuo was curious.
"Yes, Commander, you have a keen eye. This is a mushroom, but this mushroom is different from ordinary mushrooms. Its nutritional value is extremely high."
"The nutrition of each mushroom is comparable to that of an egg."
"A handful of mushrooms is worth the same amount of beef."
"But the actual price is only one-third of that of a can. Even if all costs are discarded, we still have a profit of at least 30%."
"30% profit?" Shinozuka Kazuo quickly calculated in his mind.
The current official purchase price of a can is one yuan, and a soldier's daily consumption is three yuan. There are 2.12 million people in the army, and the total consumption is 6.36 million.
If all were replaced with mushrooms, they would have a profit of 2.12 million.
It's only one day! Even if the profit is divided among all the officers along the way, in his hands, it can reach 100,000 yuan per day.
Nearly a Zero fighter.
every day!
Thinking of this, even Shinozuka Kazuo's heart became hot.
It's not like he hasn't seen a lot of money as a war zone commander.
The budget that passes through his hands every year is in hundreds of millions.
But all the money changed hands in his hands, and not even half a dime fell into his pocket.
Otherwise, he would not support Li Shiqun in engaging in black industry.
Now, Wei Wu provided him with an excellent opportunity to make a fortune, and his beard trembled involuntarily with excitement.
"Will the military department agree to us changing the procurement project?"
Shinozuka Kazuo thought of a key question.
"We are not replacing procurement projects, but increasing the budget."
Wei Wu took out the plan.
"I will find domestic experts to publish a paper claiming that this mushroom has a lot of nutrients and that long-term consumption can improve the combat effectiveness of soldiers. At the same time, I will conduct extensive publicity in newspapers to arouse public opinion."
"Then we will propose a budget to enrich soldiers' rations and improve combat effectiveness, and include this mushroom in the military's procurement list."
"In the end, we can replace the cans with mushrooms."
"As for these extra cans, I still have some channels in the black market."
Wei Wu said with a smile.
"吆西!"
Shinozuka Kazuo nodded with satisfaction.
Sell the cans through the black market and you can make another fortune.
One proposal, two profits, is there any better deal in the world?
