After hearing Wei Wu's words, Shinozuka Kazuo hesitated.
On the one hand, he felt afraid of Wei Wu's remarks.
After all, that is creating a super Big Mac.
The amount and complexity of the project can be imagined.
On the other hand, the pie depicted by Wei Wu was so tempting that it made him salivate.
That would make a full iron!
Who within the empire doesn’t know how powerful Manchuria is.
Dominated in Northeast China and the Korean Peninsula, it almost monopolized most of the industry and agriculture in the region.
Have its own police, schools, factories and other facilities.
A large number of roads, railways, power stations, and mines are private properties of Manchuria Railway.
It even has its own administrative machinery.
Apart from status, it is a country within a country.
Its profits are so huge that they are more than the tax revenue of many small countries.
It's really unimaginable.
Who within the empire would not envy him?
If you can get a piece of the pie, anyone can wake up from their dreams with a smile.
Shinozuka Kazuo is also one of them.
If he hadn't been assigned to the Southeast War Zone, he might have ended up with Manchuria.
Now, Wei Wu pointed him in a direction - to build another Manchurian Railway in the southeast theater.
And Shinozuka Kazuo is the leader of this organization.
Wei Wu had money, connections, methods, and backers.
And he has the right.
The combination of the two is a golden ticket.
Thinking of this, Shinozuka Kazuo's heart was beating fast and his breathing was short.
No one can resist the temptation of money and power.
At least he, Shinozuka Kazuo, couldn't resist.
"Why can't I do what Mantetsu can do?"
Shinozuka Kazuo made up his mind.
He also wants to build a Manchuria in the southeastern theater.
"If I give you all the permissions you want, how confident are you?"
Shinozuka Kazuo stared at Wei Wu with burning eyes.
"As long as the conditions are complete, within at least three years and at most five years, I will build a company comparable to Manchuria Railway!"
Wei Wu thought about it in his mind and said decisively.
It is now early 1941, less than 11 months before Pearl Harbor.
Five years later, Japan had long been defeated. Even if it failed, there was no need to answer to Shinozuka Kazuo.
Moreover, Wei Wu didn't think he would fail.
With the care of Shinozuka Kazuo, the highest commander in the war zone, and the support of the Shinheng family, he was confident in building a business empire with the Umbrella Company as its core.
Anyway, all kinds of assets, equipment, and technology are provided by various chaebols in the country, and he is only responsible for cheating and plundering.
Various orders and channels are highly bound to the official website.
If you can lose money by taking official orders directly, then there will be no profitable business in the world.
"Commander Shinozuka, please rest assured that I will definitely establish Umbrella Co., Ltd. as the second Manchuria Railway."
Wei Wu said quickly.
"Xinxi, go ahead and do it. I will give you all the support you need."
Shinozuka Kazuo was very satisfied with Wei Wu.
The better Wei Wu does, the closer he will be to Mantie.
It's even really possible to get there.
If Wei Wu can really build a Manchuria in the southeast theater.
How nourishing his future retirement life will be.
He didn't even dare to think about it.
After Wei Wu left Shinozuka Kazuo's office, he immediately started running the process.
With Shinozuka Kazuo's approval note, the originally cumbersome and lengthy process became extremely simple. In less than half an hour, Wei Wu had a complete set of documents.
He later returned to Umbrella's headquarters and created two new departments.
They are the construction branch and the security branch.
The Construction Branch is mainly responsible for managing the newly formed labor corps.
Those traitors who were beaten as laborers were all employees of the Construction Branch in name only.
As an employee, of course you are paid.
Moreover, it is not low, it is a full 100 yen per month.
However, as an employee, you must have room and board in the company.
Monthly food expenses are 60 yen, accommodation expenses are 30 yen, and miscellaneous expenses are 9 yen.
You also need to pay a tax of 0.9 yen to the country.
In summary, each person can get a high salary of 0.1 yen per month.
Of course, the company also took humanistic considerations into consideration, as it is easy to lose a yen of steel coins in your pocket.
Therefore, it is thoughtful and compulsory for every employee to open a bank account.
Dedicate this money to the account.
After the balance reaches 100 yuan, you can withdraw cash.
Isn’t that very thoughtful?
By the way, this bank is also owned by Umbrella Corporation.
As for "employees" wanting to leave the Ministry of Construction, it is not impossible.
But everyone signed an employment contract.
If you want to terminate the contract, you need to pay a penalty of 100,000 yen.
If you can't get it out, then work for 10 years.
It's equivalent to earning 10,000 yen a year. Even admirals in Japan don't get such a high salary. What a bargain.
As for the other security branch, it mainly manages the newly recruited mixed brigade.
Now, these mixed brigades have a new name, security forces.
The training is funded and subsidized by the theater.
Each person’s monthly training expenses are up to 600 yen.
This is just physical fitness, tactics and basic catering.
Does not include full weapons training usage fee.
Weapons training requires additional money.
Corresponding materials are also provided by the theater.
After training, when a mission needs to be carried out, the war zone will issue the mission and the corresponding commission. The security force will accept and complete the mission and receive the commission.
Of course, the commission is sky-high every time.
The cost of use is even more expensive than the Japanese's own Class A division.
Under Wei Wu's operation, he successfully established a security company similar to Blackwater under the Umbrella Company.
And, it’s more awesome than Blackwater.
After all, Blackwater recruits veterans who already have actual combat experience.
Weapons are also equipped by oneself.
As for Wei Wu's security personnel, even training costs the war zone money.
Weapons are also provided by the theater.
A separate sum of money is also required for support.
There is no command authority in this war zone yet.
If it weren't for the insiders' own operation, it would have been impossible to pass such outrageous conditions.
After settling everything, Wei Wu drove to Xiaowangzhuang.
At this time, Xiaowangzhuang has changed a lot.
Various houses were built.
From a distance, it looks like an ordinary farmer.
But when we took a closer look, we found that these houses had been reinforced and equipped with shooting holes. They were obviously disguised fortresses.
This village is gradually turning into a huge fortress complex.
After some searching, Wei Wu found Yang Guangcai who was digging sand.
"Busy now?"
Wei Wu asked with a smile.
"We finally convinced those skilled workers and engineers to stay and help us. They are busy building the factory. What's going on?"
Yang Guangcai put down the shovel in his hand and asked curiously.
"There is a good place where you can train combat skills for free. You can use guns and ammunition as you like. There is enough rice, white flour, and pork tubes. Do you want to go?"
