Two months later, Hans returned from Europe and learned that the operation went smoothly and that he was now recuperating in a manor on the Italian coast. Tang Cheng finally felt relieved. "The American way is totally unavailable, so I'm looking for Italians this time." Hans was in a very good mood. He was indeed looking for Italians, but all the vehicles and armored vehicles he acquired were of German style. of. "Before Germany's defeat, Italy ordered equipment for an armored division from Germany. The war ended too quickly. They only received transport vehicles and armored vehicles. Germany did not deliver the most important part, the tanks."
"The transport vehicles and armored vehicles received by the Italians were all sitting in warehouses gathering dust. When I found them, the Italians directly gave me a low price. When I took a look, this price was more expensive than the second-hand equipment I purchased from the US military. If you want it cheap, just eat it all. The only thing is that the Ren'anqiang Oilfield is still in the hands of the British. So many transport vehicles and armored vehicles consume too much fuel!" Hans went to Europe for a tour, but Forgot that they also have shares in United Petroleum, and United Petroleum has already drilled oil wells in Egypt.
"Oil is not a problem, and the Ren'anqiang Oilfield must still be managed by the British. We don't have the relevant technical personnel." Tang Cheng just chuckled after hearing this. "While you were in Europe, I went to the Ren'anqiang oil field and reached an agreement with the British. Thirty percent of the oil produced by Ren'anqiang must be sold to us at a low price. We will also sell the remaining part to us. We have the right to receive dividends, and 30% of the oil supply can be paid for with our dividends."
"In other words, 30% of the oil from the Ren'anqiang Oilfield will be provided to us free of charge." Tangcheng's explanation made Hans relieved. As long as there is sufficient oil supply, the oil he got back from Italy this time will Vehicles can start running. Before Hans could laugh for a moment, he heard Tang Cheng continue to say, "I'm afraid you won't be able to rest for a few days this time! The retired German troops you got later are very useful. I plan to form a few more German troops." The American infantry regiment comes out, and you just got so many vehicles from Italy that you can upgrade them into a motorized infantry regiment."
"I plan to place half of these mobile forces in the south of Bangkok and the other in the north of Bangkok. Counting the German infantry regiment previously stationed on the outskirts of Bangkok, the Thai royal family will be unable to fly!" The biggest trouble in controlling Thailand is , are the Thai royal family who still live in the Royal Palace in Bangkok, and in addition are the original high-level officials of the Thai government. These people now live in Bangkok. As long as Bangkok is firmly under control, Tangcheng does not have to worry about what trouble those people will cause.
Tangcheng has made his purpose very clear, but Hans seems to have not figured it out yet, "There is no problem in continuing to recruit retired German soldiers, but what about the mercenaries we recruit from Europe? I went to Europe this time, but I have already asked My people have started to operate. The Soviets have released many captured German soldiers. These people have no other skills except fighting. In addition, there are also Allied forces secretly causing trouble. Now Germany seems to be calm, but in fact it has begun. It’s chaos.”
Of course Tangcheng knew that Germany would be in chaos after the war, and that the United States and the Soviet Union would forcibly divide Germany into two. It's just that these things haven't happened yet. Even if he told Hans, he might not believe it. "Don't worry about the mercenaries. I plan to place them in the center of Thailand specifically to suppress the local forces that are secretly against us. Compared with the Burmese, the Thais are more aggressive and fierce, but the internal fighting among the Thais is also very serious. serious."
"I plan to stabilize the area south of Bangkok first. After this area is stabilized, I will use mercenary forces to gradually squeeze the space for the activities of the opposition forces. At that time, I will arrange for the Myanmar militia forces in northern Thailand to take advantage of the momentum to move south, and I can let Thailand will settle down once and for all." Tang Cheng said it easily at the moment, but Hans could smell a trace of murderous intent from Tang Cheng's expression. The situation in Thailand is very different from that in Myanmar. If we want to completely stabilize Thailand, the use of some special means is naturally unavoidable.
"Also, the Zionist Organization mentioned to me before that they wanted to increase the quota for rice imports from Thailand. I didn't pay attention to it at the time, but now that I think about it carefully, there is a lot to be done about this matter! I plan to set up an import and export company. All import and export business to Thailand must be completed by this import and export company. In other words, we set up a trade zone here, and use the name of the import and export company to eat all the imports from other places. Thai goods are then sold to Thais at a markup.”
"If someone wants to import goods from Thailand, it is also done by an import and export company. The customer only needs to place an order and indicate the name and quantity of the goods. The delivery party can only be an import and export company. I don't want to make money. This price increase is just to facilitate the management of Thai people. As long as the import and export company takes over all goods entering and leaving Thailand, whoever opposes us, I will tell them that they have no business. Moreover, there is another benefit to this, that is Foreign businessmen cannot enter and leave Thailand freely, and they are also prevented from being infiltrated by spies."
"The economic environment in Europe is mostly run by plutocratic families like monopolies, while Americans operate monopoly industries in the form of consortiums. Once they are allowed to enter Thailand or Myanmar, a new industry monopoly may be formed, and the only one who will suffer in the end is It’s us. As an import and export company, we can avoid this phenomenon, and we can also make small-scale adjustments in the internal industry based on the export situation, which is always better than a swarm of internal disorderly competition."
After Tang Cheng explained for a long time, Hans finally understood what the import and export company Tang Cheng was talking about was for. After thinking about it carefully, Hans felt that Tang Cheng was right. With this import and export company, they could indeed save a lot of trouble. But things in this world have pros and cons, and the same is true for this import and export company. "I'm afraid those Europeans won't be happy! Business is done between you and me. Our cigarettes and beer have already been sold to Europe and the Mediterranean. If we don't allow their businessmen to enter our territory, I'll be worried. They will also restrict us."
Hans's worries were reasonable, but he had forgotten that the British royal family and the Alliance of Nobles were the underwriters of Myanmar's cigarettes and beer. The timber business in Myanmar has also been fully contracted by those robe buddies in Chongqing. This means that business in Myanmar does not require businessmen to come to order at all. The situation in Thailand has not really stabilized yet. Tangcheng has used import and export companies to replace the middlemen who dispersed purchases and sales. On the contrary, it is more convenient for businessmen who come to negotiate. As long as the other party is not stupid, they will understand the benefits.
Tang Cheng did what he said and contacted the person in charge of the Zionist Organization's terminal in Thailand early the next morning, and set aside a large piece of land not far from the terminal to prepare for the construction of a trade zone. The Zionist Organization only wanted to purchase food from Thailand and did not express any objection to the establishment of the trade zone. What is the current situation in Thailand? They, who are here every day, know better than those businessmen from Europe.
If there is a commercial organization that can transport goods from Thailand according to their requirements and hand them over at the nearby terminal, it will save them trouble. At least they don't have to negotiate with those difficult Thai locals to order the goods they want. The cooperation of the Jews made Tang Cheng more convinced of the huge role of the import and export company, but a headache soon appeared for him. More than a dozen South Asian Chinese businessmen came directly to his door.
The previous performance of these Chinese businessmen did not satisfy Tangcheng. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that these South Asian Chinese businessmen just wanted to bet on both sides, so they were just speculators. When he was still in Chongqing, Tangcheng had no good impression of such speculators. At that time, Tangcheng had other matters to deal with, so he had no time to pay attention to these South Asian Chinese businessmen who were betting on both sides. He did not expect that the other party would actually come to him. In the entire South Asian Chinese business circle, there are at least more than a hundred Chinese families, among which only three Indonesian Chinese businessmen have completely boarded the Tangcheng boat.
In return, when Tangcheng was still in Japan, it gave these three Indonesian Chinese business families the convenience of freely entering and leaving Thailand to do business. The other South Asian Chinese businessmen who came to visit us now were obviously jealous of the benefits obtained by these three Indonesian Chinese businessmen, so Tangcheng looked down upon these South Asian Chinese businessmen even more. Tang Cheng did not choose to meet the other party, but left the matter to Hans. He took some guards and went directly to the German garrison camp stationed on the outskirts of Bangkok.
Tangcheng deployed such a German garrison on the outskirts of Bangkok for the purpose of guarding against the Thai royal family who still lived in the Royal Palace in Bangkok. Tangcheng knew that the reason why the Thai royal family chose to compromise was just a temporary hibernation. Once they find a flaw in Tangcheng or get support from Western countries, these unwilling guys will definitely make trouble again. But Tangcheng will not give them another chance. As long as they find that the Thai royal family is dishonest, this German garrison stationed on the outskirts of Bangkok will immediately launch an attack on Bangkok.
"Captain Heinz, if you hold on for a while, we have ordered a batch of equipment from Europe. In at most a month, this batch of heavy equipment will be allocated to you first. By then, your mobility will definitely be greatly improved. Increase." The middle-aged man who was called Captain Heinz in Tangcheng was previously an infantry major in the German Wehrmacht. He was imprisoned for offending the Gestapo. It was precisely because of his experience that the Allies released him from prison and did not imprison him and the surrendered German officers and soldiers.
