Ito bowed his head in response through the curtain, then turned to the two gods of wealth and smiled, "Boss Mi, Boss Niu... Madam's temporary change of plan was also well thought out!"
"We have discussed that no matter when, the head of state is a mountain that we cannot climb. It does not mean that we can do whatever we want after the head of state leaves East Asia!"
"If we follow our previous plan and deny food aid to the Manchus in the court, then who of us can resist the head of state's questioning when he comes back?"
"There is nothing wrong with you two. The head of state emphasizes free market economy. You two are businessmen and have no official status, so the head of state will not say anything!"
"But what to do with these people in the court? How to explain to the head of state? No matter how fancy you say, you can't escape the evaluation of selfishness!"
"No one dares to bear the wrath of the Führer, not even a little bit. The unfathomable divine power is not something we humble mortals can bear!"
"So the plan must be modified!"
Mi Fu frowned, "Hey... I don't feel bad about giving food. The food is not short of more than three million dan, but we are so cheap for Zai Chun, a foolish king?"
With a bang, Niu Jinfu punched the tatami. "Ito, don't forget! When our prince ascends the throne in the future, he will become the emperor of the entire Chinese Empire!"
"All the land in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties belongs to the prince! Time is running out. We wish that the Qing Dynasty would collapse and fall at this moment. At this time, three million grains are just to give them life-saving blood transfusions!"
"How can you take advantage of Zai Chun, a foolish king like this?"
Ito nodded in praise and said, "The prince is extremely grateful to receive the loyalty of the two gods of wealth! However, you two don't have to be too impatient. The so-called rescue is nothing more than a cover-up!"
"Officially we have to use the banner of rescue to send a positive signal to the Qing Dynasty and the world, but privately we have many ways to prevent him from receiving food!"
"There are still some dirty tricks!"
"Haha... think about it, two bosses, the food is in our Chinese warehouse. We want to transport it, but don't we have the final say on how to transport it?"
"Insidious tricks are more effective than conspiracy! Want to mobilize the grain in the A-shaped warehouse? We can suddenly find that some of the grain is moldy, and then report it to the superiors and request that the grain warehouse be changed..."
"This batch of documents is sent up to wait for the leader's seal and signature, and then it is sent back. We go to the B warehouse to continue the inspection. Does this series of work require people to do it? Will it waste time?"
"As long as we find a way, it's easy to delay it for three or four days!"
"This is the warehouse. The two bosses' private grain warehouse has more options. For example, suddenly one day, the distributors in Naha and Jiangnan collectively purchased goods and divided up the warehouse in front of them. You have to start from Lu Transfer goods from Song Dynasty or Borneo..."
"Haha, this will delay not only three days, but also a week!"
"There is still a way! Who does this sea transportation rely on? It is not our ship. If there is a breakdown or there is a conflict in the schedule, it is normal to be delayed for a few days..."
"Anyway, it's not that we don't send food. We publicize it in newspapers and periodicals with great fanfare, and we send national letters and telegrams to the Qing Dynasty... In short, the thunder is loud and the raindrops are small!"
"Do you two bosses understand now?"
Hahaha... Mi Fu and Boss Niu both laughed, "You could have said no earlier, it's making us anxious in vain!"
"I understand what you mean. We just shout slogans every day and talk nicely about the ship, but if we don't send food, we will drag them to death, right?"
Ito smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes! It's not like I won't send any of it. If you don't send any of the three million shi of grain, you'd be really lying. We can send it piecemeal, one hundred thousand a day, eighty thousand a day, If you push harder, give more, if you push slower, give less..."
“Isn’t this all within our control?”
Mi Fu shook his head and said excitedly, "Haha... If you put it like that, I have a better way, which can wipe us clean and make it impossible for the Yuan Dynasty to tell us that we are not good!"
"What's the plan?" Ito asked.
Mi Fu sneered and said, "Since we are going to play dirty tricks, there is no need for us to bear the infamy... We can let our men spread some opinions at the dock and the shipping association later!"
"We, the Chinese Shipping Association, are all patriotic, love the Chinese people and love the head of state! They don't care about the life and death of the Manchu Tatars!"
"In the words of the head of state, this is national sentiment! We can secretly tease the national sentiment of these freighter captains and sailors!"
"Consciously let them know that these grains support Zai Chun, which is very bad for the Chinese people!"
"Haha... As long as this kind of tendency of speech spreads, nationalist sentiment will rise... These private captains have many ways to delay time!"
"There will even be a large number of captains who refuse to transport goods to the Qing Dynasty! Because in this world, who would love dog Tatars? They are all dead in the Qing Dynasty. Do any of us feel sorry for them?"
"At that time, there will be a large number of private captains who refuse to transport goods to the Qing Dynasty. Although the captains hired by major companies dare not refuse, they can also delay it!"
"How about taking five days for a three-day trip? Reporting a minor problem as a major problem and repairing it is also a way to delay time!"
"In this way, we have achieved our goal, and at the same time we will not be left with complaints... Even if the head of state comes back, there is no way to compete with these ordinary captains and sailors!"
"Brilliant!" Boss Ito and Niu both gave a thumbs up. "This method is better than ours! The method we are thinking of requires the participation of grassroots officials. Your method can completely decouple it from the administrative system!"
"The head of state really can't blame us then!"
Madam Tiger behind the heavy curtains also smiled, and A Chou beside her handed her a cup of ginseng soup. "Madam, please drink some ginseng soup to warm yourself up! It's so tiring to stay up late... With these loyal ministers assisting the prince, the prince will be better in the future." I will surely ascend the throne smoothly!"
At this time, Boss Niu suddenly frowned and asked, "Although this method is good, there is a loophole... Civilian ships can use such a dirty trick. What if the Four Heavenly Kings mobilize the navy's supply ships?"
"The military order is like a mountain. Once the navy takes action, no one among us can influence the military!"
This sentence is to the point. The navy has its own independent supply fleet, which are the fastest and best steamships. Once these ships are used, Mi Fu, Niu Jinfu, Ito and others will be speechless at all.
Cough cough... Mrs. Tiger suddenly started coughing, frightening several people to the point where they dared not speak.
Huniu handed the ginseng soup back to A Chou, "Ahem...yes! The head of state has very strict control over the military, and the civil service system, including our harem, dare not interfere!"
"But don't worry...the military is also made up of people. Since it is a person, it also has tendencies!"
At this moment, a loud voice interrupted Mrs. Tiger's words, and heavy footsteps sounded from outside the door: "Master! The latest news has been sent!"
While talking, Xiang Ying barged in directly!
