John Clark picked up the wine glass nonchalantly, touched the wine glass in Fang Lang's hand and said with a smile:
"It's a secret!"
After saying that, he didn't forget to raise his eyebrows at Fang Lang, with a proud expression on his face.
Seeing this, Fang Lang stretched out his legs and kicked his butt hard, gritting his teeth and saying:
"I don't care. Now that I'm in your territory, if you don't make good arrangements for me, just wait for your father to come to Japan to accompany you!"
John Clark was the first friend Fang Lang met after time travel. The two had a fatal friendship on the battlefield, and the two of them had been recovering in the hospital together for a long time, so they knew each other very well.
However, because the two of them have been separated in the past two years and their status has changed drastically, they rarely have time to fight together.
But at the moment when Fang Lang raised his leg, John Clark still keenly noticed Fang Lang's movements, and turned around to avoid it. Unfortunately, he lived a comfortable life like an emperor in Japan, coupled with the lack of training after leaving the front line, his reaction It is no longer as good as before, and it is impossible to avoid Fang Lang's Foshan Shadowless Kick.
His butt was kicked hard. Although his butt hurt a little, he was not angry. Instead, he walked towards Fang Lang with a smile and said:
"Okay! You dare to kick me and threaten me. I will write to Lilith later and say that you asked me to arrange a Japanese girl for you. If you don't, you will beat me."
When the two of them were injured in the hospital, Lilith was their bed nurse, so John Clark was also very familiar with Lilith, and he and Fang Lang also launched a pursuit offensive against Lilith. It's a pity that Fang Lang won the beauty's favor in the end.
"Okay! You write to Lilith and I will arrange for your father to come to Japan. This is very fair. I agree!"
Fang Lang looked like he was about to defeat the enemy, which made John Clark's eyelids twitch and he couldn't help but beat his heart. Could it be that this guy has already taken care of Lilith?
After weighing the pros and cons, John decisively gave up the struggle. Just now he looked complacent, but he immediately turned into a flattering villain.
"No! Brother, I'm just kidding, how could I be such a snitch! Aren't they just Japanese girls? Arrange them right away. Make sure they are young, beautiful and sexy girls who have just started working."
Fang Lang couldn't help laughing when he saw this guy turning his face faster than flipping through a book.
"Haha. That's more like it! Do you think I'm the same bastard as you? I have to write a letter to Lilith. Do you know that I came here this time but was personally told by your father to take a good look at what you are doing in Japan? What are you doing.
Let you arrange a Japanese girl, just to have a good understanding of your life in Japan. I came here with a critical eye, do you understand? You must severely criticize your decadent and decadent life in Japan. "
John looked at Fang Lang with a proud look as if he was on an errand, and that unreasonable expression made him itch with hatred, but the situation was stronger than the other person, even though the other party could command his father! He had no choice but to continue to smile, and approached Fang Lang with a flattering look on his face and said:
"Yes...yes...criticize, we must criticize harshly. If these Japanese don't criticize harshly, they don't know how powerful we are."
After saying that, he didn't forget to pick up the wine glass and move to Fang Lang's side to clink the glass with Fang Lang gently. The eyebrows on his face were also slightly raised.
Fang Lang laughed loudly when he saw this, as if he was recalling the time when the two of them were recuperating in the hospital together a few years ago. He put his arm around John's shoulders, not caring about the strange looks from the officers around him, and dragged him to a more secluded corner. Seeing that no one could hear their conversation, he lowered his voice and said:
"Don't say that my brother doesn't take care of you. Tell me honestly, what is your say in your logistics department?"
Although John Clark had a smile on his face when he saw Fang Lang, his eyes were very serious. He understood that the other party was talking to him about business, and he also looked around calmly with his peripheral vision to make sure that no one was nearby. , then also said in a voice that only two people could hear:
"What? Do you want to get something back from us? Just tell me whatever you like. If the quantity is not large, I should be able to help you think of a way."
When Fang Lang heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter. He didn't expect that after listening to his words, John would think that he wanted to buy some good things from their US fleet. You must know that getting things out of the army is a matter of losing your head. But what moved him was that the other party did not hesitate at all and directly expressed his willingness to take huge risks to help him find a solution.
"Your naval base is worth it for me to come to you. You must know that I am the major shareholder of Shata Company and have a close relationship with the officials of your U.S. Army General Logistics Department. I can't get anything that I like from your U.S. military. arrive?
What I mean is, as an officer of the Naval Logistics Division of the U.S. occupation forces stationed in Japan, do you have the logistics procurement authority for your naval base? "
"Of course I have the right to purchase logistics! What? Has your company already done business in Japan? If you want to sell something to our U.S. Navy, just tell me directly in charge and I will definitely help you make arrangements. All right."
After hearing Fang Lang's words, John Clark patted his chest with a relaxed expression and took the initiative.
Seeing this, Fang Lang smiled slightly. It seemed that his old friend was doing well in the US occupation force and navy stationed in Japan, and he still had some real power in his hands. No wonder this guy's body had obviously gained a lot of weight.
As officers in the logistics department of the U.S. Navy base, reselling supplies from the base and purchasing supplies from outside are their main job and the source of their power and wealth. After confirming that the other party, the colonel, had such real rights, Fang Lang patted the other party on the shoulder and said:
"If I want something to enter your US military supply system, I don't have to look for it on your head. It only depends on how much demand you have for the naval base in your hand.
After you have managed to become the head of the general logistics of the U.S. occupation forces in Japan, it will be enough for me to come to you. "
Fang Lang's attitude made John confused for a moment. He looked at the good brother beside him with a puzzled expression and said:
"Since you don't have any use for me, why are you asking me all this? To entertain me!"
Hearing this, Fang Lang did not answer the other party's question immediately, but smiled mysteriously and said:
"Are you familiar with the person in charge of the general logistics of your American occupation forces in Japan?"
"Oh! Of course he is familiar! Do you want me to introduce you to him? No problem, I can take you to him tomorrow."
John did not ask Fang Lang what he wanted to do specifically, but said without hesitation that he would introduce him to the person in charge of general logistics who he knew, which made the smile on Fang Lang's face grow wider.
"No, you just need to know each other. You are the only one in the Clark family who still works in the military. Although your father is now the CEO of God's Whip Military Contracting Company, your family still has some shortcomings in the business field. .
I have received some news that the United States may send a large army to intervene in the situation on the peninsula. When the army gathers, the demand for supplies will be very strong.
Since you are familiar with the general logistics director of the occupying forces stationed in Japan, I suggest that your family can acquire a few factories in Japan to produce some less important but high-demand materials and enter the suppliers of the American occupying forces through bidding. The list is guaranteed to make a fortune when the time comes. "
Fang Lang's words stunned John Clark. As a colonel officer of the US military stationed in Japan, he certainly had a certain understanding of the situation on the peninsula close at hand.
There are indeed many conflicts between the northern forces of the peninsula, supported by the Soviet Union, and the southern forces of the peninsula, supported by the United States. Since the beginning of 1949, the two sides have been in constant conflict, with exchanges of fire occurring almost every day, but the scale is not very large.
Therefore, he never thought that the United States might one day intervene in the conflict on the peninsula. You must know that the peninsula borders the Soviet Union. Although the United States has been in confrontation with the Soviet Union, the main point of competition is European dominance.
Now when he suddenly heard Fang Lang tell him that the United States might intervene in the battle on the peninsula, he felt that it was both unexpected and somewhat natural.
"Is the news accurate?"
After thinking for a while, John Clark's expression slowly became serious, and he confirmed in a serious tone.
Fang Lang did not answer this question directly, but smiled noncommittally and said:
"Of course I have my own source of information. I chose to tell you because we are good brothers and I think there is a great opportunity to make a fortune here. Whether you can grasp it depends on yourself.
If you go to verify this news, I will never admit that I have talked about such a topic with you. Do you get me? "
John looked at Fang Lang with a casual look on his face, and his mind began to spin rapidly. He still had a certain understanding of his brother, especially after they came out of the hospital together. This guy's legendary experience sometimes made him wonder. One has to be amazed.
Without wasting too much time, John squeezed the glass in his hand with his fingers holding the wine glass, gritted his teeth and said:
"I believe you! But why do we need to purchase factories in Japan to produce them? Can't we just purchase them directly from the United States and ship them over?"
Seeing that the other party simply accepted his suggestion, Fang Lang smiled silently, patted the other party's arm and said:
"Are you stupid in the army? If you produce locally in Japan and purchase from the United States and ship it back for sale, the cost there is lower, can't you figure it out?
You may still be able to sell the first batch of goods shipped from the United States, but later others will find the opportunity to organize production in Japan. Do you think that with the current cheap labor costs in Japan, you can still sell the second batch of goods? Can it be sold? "
John slapped his forehead in sudden realization.
"I understand, so what products do you think I should make? Why would you suggest that I produce products that are not important but are in high demand?
The profits on these things are not very high! "
Fang Lang rolled his eyes at the other party angrily before saying:
"The profits are huge and the important products are the food of the powerful military-industrial complex. You still want to compete with them for food. Are you tired of living?"
Now John finally understood something and looked at Fang Lang in surprise:
"Does your information come from these powerful military-industrial complexes?"
Fang Lang didn't expect that this guy's brain circuitry would be so strange. He didn't seem to care about what products to sell when he was discussing it. Instead, he cared about the source of his information. Obviously, he still had some doubts about what he said.
My intelligence does not come from these military-industrial complexes, but from my own understanding of the history of later generations. However, since the other party made up his own mind and attributed the source of the intelligence to these people, he would not deny it, but just smiled enigmatically.
"Don't worry about where my information comes from, just tell me if you are interested in joining!"
Seeing that Fang Lang did not deny his problem, John Clark felt that he already knew the truth of the matter. Ordinary people may not know what kind of industry Fang Lang has, but John Clark knows it very well. You must know that Fang Lang's global trade purchased a lot of equipment from the United States through his mother's relationship. .
In addition, his father, Joseph Clark, a former rear admiral of the U.S. Navy, is now working for Fang Lang, so he has his own understanding of what kind of strength Fang Lang currently has.
Although he didn't know the specific situation of Fang Lang's family, he had heard a little bit about his relationship with the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family.
Fang Lang's attitude at this time made him have his own judgment on the source of Fang Lang's news, which was completely normal.
"Do I need to say this? Of course I will join! Well, let's do it! I will immediately send a telegram to my sister and ask her to fly to Japan and be responsible for purchasing the factory.
However, what specific products does this sell? "
A soldier who had never done business before suddenly had to enter the army's procurement system. For a while, he really didn't know where to start.
"Don't look at me. As a colonel of the U.S. Navy's logistics department, don't you know what materials the military needs to purchase from abroad and which are suitable for local production?"
When Fang Lang saw John looking at him again, he quickly waved his hand to signal the other person not to ask him. He was already taking a huge risk by providing the other person with information that could make him a fortune.
It would be a bit too much to teach the other party step by step what products to produce. If the other party really followed your advice, everything would be easy to talk about after making money during the war.
But what if as the war ends, the products become unsalable and the factory closes down? Wouldn't it be like a grudge turning into a grudge by then?
Therefore, Fang Lang would never do such a thing.
Seeing Fang Lang's determined look, John finally understood the other party's attitude and couldn't help but start using his own brain.
As a colonel in the Naval Logistics Department, of course I am very clear about the logistics support system of the U.S. military. It can be said to be all-encompassing. Coffee, Coca-Cola, tobacco, alcohol, and condoms can all be included in the military's procurement system.
Moreover, the consumption of these products is still very large, but these products now have their own fixed suppliers. It is obviously impossible to easily squeeze out the other party's share. At most, it is to tear a hole and supply a small amount.
But many of these products are not suitable for production in Japan! As he was thinking about it, John's eyes suddenly lit up, he slapped his thigh suddenly and said:
"I thought about what product I want to make. This product has the absolute lowest cost, is in huge demand, and can only be purchased in Japan."
