The Spy

Chapter 295 Cooperation in Factory Construction
After Kitazawa discovered something was wrong, he was able to promptly instigate the intelligence personnel of the Party Affairs Investigation Office to defect again, thus offsetting his merits and demerits.

Tsuchihara specifically told him to pay attention to the most important task and complete all necessary preparations as soon as possible.

For two consecutive days, Bi Rongxian did not go to Xiaoyuan.

Kitazawa was getting a little restless. Did the people from the Military Intelligence Department not want to retaliate, or had they already started their revenge?
Kitazawa soon shook his head. If the Military Intelligence Department took action, this matter would certainly not be concealed.

"Send a signal to Xiao Yuan and ask her to take the initiative to make an appointment with Bi Rongxuan."

Kitazawa ordered Suzuki that Bi Rongxian was very important and it would be best to find a way to let Bi Rongxian facilitate the actions of the Military Intelligence Department.

Bei Ze has spent a lot of money these days, mainly to gangsters everywhere.

Let them help find the Red Party.

No matter who it is, as long as he can find the Red Party, he will be rewarded with ten big gold bars.

There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. These thugs are very active. Bei Ze believes that it won’t take long for him to obtain information about the Red Party.

The Red Party hid very well, but they could not hide from these local tyrants.

He reported this matter to the chief section chief, who approved of it. The chief section chief was also aware of the power of these gangsters.

Unless the Red Party no longer exists in Wuhan, he will definitely be able to find it.

"Team Leader Yan, the Japanese took the initiative to find me."

After receiving Xiaoyuan's signal, Bi Rongxian immediately reported to Yan Ming, who smiled.

Once Kitazawa can't help himself, he will be able to lure him out quickly.

"You should go and see who is coming to see you."

Yan Ming instructed that they had installed a bug at Xiaoyuan's place a few days ago, but they had not conducted any formal monitoring.

While Xiaoyuan was not at home, they dug a hole in the ground and laid out the electrical wires in advance.

The bug was not there, so Kitazawa could not find it when he went over to check.

If Bei Ze went there, Bi Rongxian would tell Bei Ze some important information according to their instructions, and all these conversations would be recorded.

If it wasn't for Kitazawa, he would have recorded their conversation as well, but he wouldn't have done anything.

Tong Changming's target is Suzuki, while Xu Qingyun's target is Kitazawa.

Tsuchihara came to Wuhan in person. What they were going to do was absolutely confidential. In the entire Wuhan Special High Section, it was estimated that Kitazawa was the only one who knew about it.

There's no point arresting other people.

If Xu Qingyun wanted to catch a fish, he would catch the big fish, the section chief.

The acting section chief is still a section chief.

Many section chiefs of Japan's Special High Police fell because of him, but no one was actually caught by him personally. Kitazawa can enjoy this treatment and become the first section chief of the Special High Police to be caught by Xu Qingyun.

"Yes, I understand."

Bi Rongxian received some training during this period and his heart became more stable.

After he goes there, he just needs to do things in his usual style. There is no need to cover up or act.

Say what you should say and do what you should do.

This is the only way to prevent the Japanese from becoming suspicious of him.

"Madoka."

In the evening, Bi Rongxian arrived at Xiaoyuan's residence on time. As soon as he arrived, Xiaoyuan came over to help him get his clothes, looking like a good wife.

"They came yesterday, and here's something for you."

After packing her clothes, Xiaoyuan took out a wax-sealed ball, which contained the message that the Japanese had sent to Bi Rongxian.

"it is good."

Bi Rongxian took the ball, removed the wax seal, and opened the note inside.

Since the Japanese haven't come yet, he can just go out and throw away the garbage, or use other excuses. As long as he goes out, Team Leader Yan will know that he is the only one here today.

If the Japanese came, he would not have to go out, at least not within ten minutes.

This is the secret code between him and Team Leader Yan.

To send a secret code, there is no need to use any obvious signals. Just the appearance of a person or even different movements can convey the information.

After reading the contents of the note, Bi Rongxian burned it directly.

The Japanese asked him whether the Military Intelligence Department had taken any retaliatory actions and whether there had been any unusual events recently.

Everything was just as Team Leader Yan said. He quickly took out a pen and paper, wrote down the contents, resealed it with wax and handed it to Xiaoyuan.

Bi Rongxian can read, and not only him, but everyone in the Military Intelligence Department can read.

Even if they didn't know many words before, after Xu Qingyun came, their cultural abilities were strengthened. Those who couldn't read worked overtime to study, and at least they could understand and write.

No matter how it is written, as long as people can understand it.

Bi Rongxian had been to school before, but unfortunately he did not study for long. As he had many younger brothers at home, he was forced to help with housework.

But he had a solid foundation and learned quickly. Now he can recognize most characters and can write quite a few.

If there are words you really don’t know how to write, you can replace them with other homophones.

"I'll give it to them tomorrow."

Xiaoyuan took the ball and put it in the secret compartment of the drawer. She didn't understand so many big principles, but she knew very well that Bi Rongxian was doing things for others.

Moreover, other people needed something from Bi Rongxian, so they gave Bi Rongxian a lot of benefits, including her.

She doesn't understand any big principles. In this chaotic world, as long as she can live a stable life, that's enough.

Nothing happened that night, and the next day Suzuki came here quietly.

He was very careful. This was Chinese territory and he must not let the Chinese catch him.

After carefully checking all the surrounding areas, Suzuki came to Xiaoyuan's residence and took away the information left by Bi Rongxian.

"Someone has tried it, but the people in the Party Affairs Investigation Office are very alert, so they didn't dare to do it?"

Kitazawa was surprised after reading the information.

But for him, this is good news. As long as the Military Intelligence Department has not given up on revenge, they will definitely retaliate against the other intelligence group. It is normal for the people in the intelligence group of the Party Affairs Investigation Department to be alert.

This aspect was explained in the information previously provided by Cen Junxian.

Two days later, Kitazawa came out alone.

He did not take the Special Higher Police's vehicle, but rode a bicycle by himself and changed into inconspicuous clothes to avoid being discovered.

He came out to make the connection.

Very important connector.

The death squad arranged by the chief section chief has arrived in Wuhan and has moved into a safe house.

He had to find a way to send someone to the Military Intelligence Department, so he needed to meet with that person in advance.

When this plan was first laid out, Tsuchihara had already selected the person. The reason why he was sent here only now was to give him special training during this period.

The death soldier is quite skilled, but he has never had any contact with the Red Party.

In order for him to pretend to be a Red Party member, he must receive special training.

Moreover, the training was conducted in accordance with what the Party Affairs Investigation Office knew about the Red Party, so at least their identities could not arouse suspicion.

After more than a month of special training, when the death soldier looked completely like a Red Party member, Tsuchihara sent him over.

"Dong dong."

When he arrived at the place, Kitazawa knocked on the door rhythmically while looking around.

He disguised himself well today. The Military Intelligence Department and the Party Affairs Investigation Department have deployed people to observe secretly in the Japanese Concession.

Mainly looking at the cars, he was riding a bicycle, inconspicuous and not noticed.

The door was opened quickly, and the person inside glanced at Bei Ze and immediately let him in.

"I'm Kitazawa."

After coming in, Kitazawa introduced himself. He had seen the other person's photo and knew he had not recognized the wrong person.

Similarly, the assassins had also seen Kitazawa's photo and knew that they had to obey Kitazawa's orders here.

"Section Chief Kitazawa, sir has told me that I will obey your orders completely here."

The assassin had no expression on his face when he spoke. As a man who voluntarily came to die and was to be tortured, he understood his ultimate fate.

"Mr. Tang, please accept my respect."

Bei Ze stood up straight and bent deeply. The assassin was called Tang Lianpeng. This was not his real name, but that of the Red Party member.

Since being chosen, he is Tang Lianpeng. He has to forget his real name and live as Tang Lianpeng.

Kitazawa didn't know his real name either.

"Section Chief Kitazawa, you are too kind. My life was given to me by you, so it is only natural that I should work hard for you."

Tang Lianpeng shook his head slightly. When he arrived in Wuhan, his life began to count down.

After being arrested, he will not admit his identity, but the Party Affairs Investigation Office will confirm his identity, so there is nothing he can do even if he wants to admit it.

He is not Tang Lianpeng and does not know the real secrets of the Red Party.

"The chief section chief has instructed that I will satisfy you with whatever you want to eat or what you want."

Tang Lianpeng is a death warrior. Before he dies, all his requests will be met as long as they are not too excessive, but they cannot be done openly.

For example, if he wants to eat something delicious, there will be a hidden place for him to eat.

If he wants a woman, Bei Ze will find one for him. If she cannot be in the city, he will arrange one for him outside the city and kill the woman afterwards.

What Tang Lianpeng did must not be known to anyone, otherwise his identity would be doubted.

"Mr. gave me enough money to settle down. I don't want anything."

Tang Lianpeng shook his head. He had already enjoyed the life he deserved in Northeast China. After coming to Wuhan, he would not do anything else.

He now has to live according to the Red Party's way and repay Tu Yuan.

"Okay, you take a rest first."

Kitazawa didn't insist and got up and left after the conversation.

Tang Lianpeng's arrival puts a lot of pressure on Bei Ze. The chief section chief plan has officially started and he needs to complete all subsequent tasks.

Send Tang Lianpeng to the Military Intelligence Department to find out the real Red Party member, let the Party Affairs Investigation Department discover Tang Lianpeng, etc.

There is another thing, the conflict between the Military Intelligence Department and the Party Affairs Investigation Department.

If a major conflict really breaks out between them, especially if the Military Intelligence Department deliberately retaliates against those from the Party Affairs Investigation Department, Kitazawa believes that the next task will definitely be twice as easy with half the effort.

He doesn't have to do anything, the Party Affairs Investigation Office will be as serious as a chicken when the time comes.

After returning to the Special Higher Police, Kitazawa immediately called over a trusted person.

This confidant is currently the head of the logistics team. He has a similar status to Suzuki. When Bei Ze was trying to persuade Bi Rongxian to rebel, it was the two of them that he brought with him.

"Section Chief, you're looking for me?"

"How are those thugs doing?"

Tang Lianpeng has arrived in Wuhan, and the plan has been officially launched. He will personally send Tang Lianpeng to the Military Intelligence Department, and the work of helping the Party Affairs Investigation Department to find the Red Party should not be delayed.

The sooner things are done, the more satisfied the chief will be.

"No reply yet. I'll go and urge them."

"That's fine. Tell them not to take the money and not do the job. They can't afford the price."

Bei Ze snorted coldly. He knew that these Chinese people were lazy and would never do their work seriously unless they were warned.

"Hay."

The confidant left and Kitazawa went to send a secret report. He needed to translate the telegram himself and report to the chief section chief that he had successfully contacted Tang Lianpeng.

By the way, report the possible continued conflict between the Military Intelligence Department and the Party Affairs Investigation Department.

After sending the telegram, Kitazawa was in a good mood and hummed a folk song from his hometown.

For him, everything is currently moving in a good direction. Once Xu Qingyun is killed, he can be promoted to lieutenant colonel and become a formal section chief.

In the United States, after more than ten days of negotiations, the legal team finally reached an agreement with the pharmaceutical company.

The Xu family obtained authorization for Southeast Asia, but they could only open three factories at most, and their sales channels were limited to Southeast Asia.

At the same time, they purchase $1.5 million worth of goods from pharmaceutical companies every year.

The licensing fee was reduced to 3.5 million.

The total cost is still five million. What Xu Jiaming cannot understand the most is the purchasing. They can obviously produce it at home, but they still buy American products at high prices. These American businessmen are really despicable.

What he didn't expect was that after receiving the telegram, his son immediately called back to agree.

Although he seemed to be the representative, in fact, everything was decided by his son. His son agreed, and Xu Jiaming had no choice but to sign as the representative.

I wanted to save some money, but in the end it still cost five million.

Moreover, the commission for lawyer fees is 150,000 yuan, plus the lawyer fees for procurement and other aspects, the total cost exceeds 200,000 yuan.

Five lawyers, each making at least $40,000.

Xu Jiaming couldn't help but sigh that it is really easy for American lawyers to make money.

In Wuhan, Xu Qingyun received the news that the deal was done and smiled brightly.

He could build a factory, but it would take at least half a year from construction to production. The war was less than a year away, and his factory certainly could not provide so much supply in the early stages.

With $1.5 million worth of goods from the United States as a base, it can at least help a lot of people in the early stages.

One million and a half is the purchase price. In wartime, Xu Qingyun could earn at least three times as much, or even more.

He won't make that much money from this unscrupulous way, but he will still make some money. Once he starts producing at full capacity, he will make even more.

Making money is not actually Xu Qingyun’s most important goal. What he wants is to save more Chinese veterans.

Wars are fought for resources, and as time goes on, veterans become more important.

Even if the general situation cannot be changed, his intervention can reduce the sacrifice of Chinese people and make the Japanese bleed more.

The gap in equipment and combat effectiveness is indeed not something that Xu Qingyun can change alone.

Not to mention him, even if a smarter person came, he would not be able to change the current situation.

The Kuomintang as a whole is too rotten, with numerous factions, and it cannot be changed by the power of one or two people. Even though it showed unprecedented unity during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the gap in equipment was still an insurmountable chasm.

Without air superiority, without sea control, and with inferior artillery, it is indeed difficult to defeat the opponent purely by relying on flesh and blood.

Xu Qingyun read the entire contract. There was nothing wrong with the licensing fee, sales area restrictions, etc. Just because there were restrictions now did not mean that there would be restrictions in the future.

Besides, there is a loophole here.

He is only allowed to sell in the southeast region, and there is no prohibition on selling to others. What if others come to purchase?
It is estimated that American pharmaceutical companies would not have thought that a war would also break out in the West, and they would need this kind of medicine even more at that time. This is a life-saving medicine. Not to mention asking them to go to China to purchase it, they would go to Antarctica as long as they can.

In addition, there is the authorization time.

Pharmaceutical companies treat patents as their treasures and are unwilling to grant them permanent licenses.

It was initially five years, but was negotiated down to ten years.

Ten years was not enough, and at Xu Qingyun's request, he finally got a ten plus ten renewal.

That is to say, after ten years, the contract will be automatically renewed for another ten years, provided that during these ten years, Xu's Company must continue to purchase goods worth one and a half million US dollars every year, and only then will the next ten years automatically take effect.

Twenty years is enough. By then the Korean War will be over and there will be better alternative drugs. Sulfonamide will gradually lose its effect.

Future authorizations are not important.

The pharmaceutical factory’s requirements were very strict, and Xu Qingyun also added conditions.

The first is price. He is a big customer, so we must give him the lowest price. And if the price is to be increased, it must be within 5%.

In other words, the pharmaceutical company can only give him a price increase of 5% at most each year.

The pharmaceutical company had no difficulty with this and agreed readily.

In their eyes, Xu's Company had its own pharmaceutical factory and low-priced medicines, and they also asked them to purchase $1.5 million worth of goods from them every year. This money was simply free money.

Secondly, if the pharmaceutical company breaches the contract and is unable to provide drugs, not only will the authorization be automatically renewed, but it will also have to pay a considerable amount of liquidated damages.

The pharmaceutical company didn't care about this at all, and some people even made fun of Xu's company for not understanding business.

A few smart people wanted to object, but were ignored by the top brass.

They also agreed. In their minds, Xu would lose money if he purchased their drugs. After all, they were able to produce them themselves, so they didn't care about the penalty. They set the same penalty for liquidated damages for Xu.

If they fail to purchase the contract amount, they can demand a high penalty from Xu's Company.

After reading the contract, Xu Qingyun smiled and put it away.

He has already started making plans in the United States. This time, my father and Xu Fuzhong went there not only to discuss authorization, but also to invite some senior government officials to invest in them.

The United States' selection system has left great convenience for capital.

First comes the mayor, then the governor, then the courts, state legislators, the House of Representatives, and so on.

It’s just spending money. Xu Qingyun can afford it.

If the pharmaceutical company really breaches the contract in the future, it will be enough for them to get back all the money they earned from them, including the principal and interest. If they do not breach the contract, they will become his manufacturer and help him produce goods worth one and a half million US dollars every year.

He was very clear about the production capacity of this American pharmaceutical factory. One million and a half already accounted for more than 30% of their total.

If his father hadn't really been confused, and the legal team hadn't taken the initiative to lower the purchase amount, Xu Qingyun would definitely have agreed to the two million.

The pharmaceutical companies think they have gotten a great deal, but they will regret it next year, not to mention a few years later.

Next year, more people supported by Xu Qingyun will come to power. These people only care about money, so they will naturally help him when the time comes.

Pharmaceutical companies today do not have as much influence as they will have in the future. Even if they were controlled by big capital, Xu Qingyun would not do that. Now is the best opportunity for Xu Qingyun.

"Send a report."

Arriving at the telecommunications group, Xu Qingyun asked someone to send out a secret message.

Secret message to Mr. Chen.

He has the authorization for three factories. He will definitely open one in Chongqing, and the second one can be placed in Singapore first.

There are still a few years before Singapore falls, so we can move the factory away before it falls.

As for the third one, Xu Qingyun plans to place it in Xi'an.

That place is closer to northern Shaanxi.

As long as there is a chance, those who get the medicine will definitely find a way to exchange it for money, which can give the organization more opportunities to purchase this life-saving drug.

Life-saving medicine is worth it no matter how expensive it is.

In Singapore, Mr. Chen's secretary delivered the telegram. The Chen family is a large family and has a special radio station to receive all kinds of information.

"Please cooperate with me to open a pharmaceutical factory together?"

After reading the telegram, Mr. Chen was a little surprised. Xu Qingyun sent a telegram asking him if he was interested in starting a factory together. Xu Qingyun bought the license from the United States and mainly produced sulfonamides.

Of course he knew about sulfanilamide, as it was part of his trading business and it was never difficult to sell.

Moreover, he was well aware of how difficult it was to obtain authorization for sulfonamide. He had thought about it at the beginning, but was frightened by the other party's asking price.

Is it true that Xu Qingyun has obtained the authorization now?

The telegram did not go into too much detail, and it was not convenient to explain such things in detail in a telegram. It only asked Mr. Chen if he was interested. If so, Xu Qingyun could come to Singapore to meet him.

At first Mr. Chen thought Xu Qingyun was joking, but based on his understanding of Xu Qingyun, it was impossible for him to make such a joke.

Did Xu Qingyun really get the authorization?
Mr. Chen was a little restless. In addition to making money, he knew how important such medicine was to the country. With this medicine, if the situation that Xu Qingyun was worried about occurred, many combat veterans would be able to survive in the country.

After thinking for a long time, Mr. Chen took the initiative to call back.

At the Wuhan Military Intelligence Department, Xu Qingyun waited in the office for more than an hour before receiving a reply from Mr. Chen.

Mr. Chen was willing to cooperate and specially invited him to Singapore for an interview.

Xu Qingyun is a spy, so it is not easy for him to go out. However, he has money, so he just needs to keep his whereabouts secret as long as he doesn't let the Japanese know that he is traveling.

We must report this to the headquarters, and the director will definitely not object.

Mr. Chen has a great influence on the top management, and the director is trying to make friends with Mr. Chen. When Xu Qingyun is invited to meet Mr. Chen, the director will just ask him to go as soon as possible.

"Yan Ming."

After putting away the telegram, Xu Qingyun called Yan Ming.

"Stationmaster."

Yan Ming came very quickly and he has grown a lot. Even if I am not around, nothing will go wrong with Yan Ming looking after the house.

As for the Party Affairs Investigation Office, Tong Changming is not a loser and will not be easily fooled by the Japanese.

What's more, he won't be in Singapore for too long. If he takes a plane, he will be back in two days at the latest.

"I have to go out for something, you stay and look after the house. Bi Rongxuan, don't worry, take your time, and we will definitely lure Bei Ze out."

Kitazawa wants them to conflict with the Party Affairs Investigation Office, but they have not taken any action, and Kitazawa will not sit idly by.

The next step is to give Bei Ze an opportunity, an opportunity that will allow Bi Rongxian to carry out the mission.

He would not let anyone else assign this task, he would only come out to meet with Bi Rongxian and make arrangements personally.

It doesn’t matter whether they meet at Xiaoyuan’s place or not, as long as they meet, there will be a chance to catch someone.

In order to facilitate Yan Ming's operation, Xu Qingyun deliberately left Zhao San in Wuhan this time.

With his assistance, it would be easier to obtain solid evidence that Kitazawa was engaged in intelligence work.

Zhao San has more crooked ideas than Yan Ming.

Kitazawa instigated a helper of the Military Intelligence Department to do things that were detrimental to the Military Intelligence Department.

He even instigated an internal conflict between the two intelligence agencies, and Kitazawa would have no choice but to admit it.

As long as Bei Ze takes the bait, he will definitely die this time.

The next day at noon, Xu Qingyun went to the airport.

There is no direct flight from Wuhan to Singapore. Money makes things easier, so Xu Qingyun simply paid for a plane from Hong Kong to pick him up.

He was then sent directly to Singapore.

The return call from headquarters arrived yesterday.

As expected, Chu Zuo did not object and even asked him to deepen his relationship with Mr. Chen. The Xu and Chen families were old friends, which meant that Chu Zuo also had a good relationship with Mr. Chen.

Mr. Chen has a wide circle of friends, especially many senior members of the Fruit Party owe him favors.

If he encounters any difficulties in the future, Mr. Chen’s words can be of great help to him.

"Changcun, Qingyun's plane is coming soon, please help me pick it up."

In Singapore, Mr. Chen called his son. Xu Qingyun had sent him a telegram before boarding the plane, so he could calculate the time when Xu Qingyun would arrive in Singapore.

Although he was very interested in the cooperation that Xu Qingyun mentioned, Xu Qingyun was his junior after all, so it was not appropriate for him to be so grand and go to pick him up in person.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Chen Changcun was very happy to know that Xu Qingyun was coming. He had long wanted to see Xu Qingyun again.

Since leaving Wuhan last time, he has been paying special attention to Japan and Germany.

Let's talk about Japan first. Under the brainwashing of Bushido, Japan does have many crazy young people. The most important thing is that their soldiers practice rebellion.

As long as they think what they are doing is right, they dare to disobey orders and do what they want.

This is too scary. Xu Qingyun is right. If there are really radical crazy elements, they may cause a war between the two countries at any time. By then, they will not be able to stop it even if they don't want to. Once the war machine is started, it will no longer be controlled by the top leaders.

When that time comes, the Japanese will have no choice but to fight even if they don't want to.

After carefully studying Germany, Chen Changcun was even more shocked.

After the last war, various countries imposed various restrictions on Germany, such as the number of troops, naval tonnage, no air force, etc.

How did Germany do it?

They do not have a large number of troops, but they do have a large number of police officers. In addition, all young people have received military training, and they can recruit a large number of soldiers at any time when needed.

Germany did not have an air force, but it had flying clubs.

These flying clubs have trained a large number of pilots.

As for the navy, since they broke the restrictions last year, they have been building ships like crazy, especially submarines. They have built a lot. Not to mention the future, even if a war breaks out now, they have the strength to compete with European countries.

If Germany is given more time to develop, Chen Changcun doesn't know what they will become.

Xu Qingyun’s worries were right. Germany was unwilling to be restricted for a long time because of its defeat in the last war. If they wanted to develop, they had to break free from the shackles.

In fact, the sky over Europe is already shrouded in the dark clouds of war, and this time it is likely that Germany will be the first to initiate the war.

Half an hour after arriving at the airport, Chen Changcun finally waited for Xu Qingyun's plane.

Xu Qingyun chartered a small plane, so he needed to stop for refueling during the journey and arrived a little later.

The only people who got off the plane were personal bodyguard Leng Wenxuan and Wuhan Station General Affairs Team Leader Zheng Jiming.

This time he is coming to Singapore. With the Chen family here, there will be no danger, not to mention that he can go back and forth by plane. Unless Japan learns the news in advance and is willing to get rid of him at all costs, they will directly send the Air Force from Taiwan to intercept his plane.

This may be almost nonexistent.

Xu Qingyun hired British planes. These British guys were also very arrogant. They would never let it go if Japan shot down their planes for no reason.

There are British bases in Myanmar, Singapore and Hong Kong.

In addition, there is another very important point. No matter how much Tsuchihara values ​​him, the Japanese headquarters will not go to so much trouble for an agent.

It can be said that apart from the precautions at the airport, his safety is absolutely guaranteed on this trip.

"Qingyun."

Chen Changcun raised his hand and waved at Xu Qingyun.

"Brother Changcun."

Xu Qingyun walked over with a smile on his face. Unlike the others, Chen Changcun did not politely shake hands with him. Instead, he went up to him and gave him a hug.

"boarding."

Pulling Xu Qingyun, Chen Changcun got into the car directly. Singapore is not big, and they arrived at the Chen family villa soon. The Chen family is one of the most prestigious families in Singapore, and their residence is very large.

The buildings here are in typical Southeast Asian style, with white exterior walls. The buildings are not very tall, but they look very good.

"Uncle Chen."

After entering Chen's house, Xu Qingyun immediately saw Mr. Chen waiting for him at the living room door. He got out of the car as soon as it stopped and took the initiative to step forward to say hello.

"Qingyun is here, come in."

Mr. Chen nodded with a smile. Xu Qingyun was his nephew and the two families were old friends, so there was no need to be too polite.

Besides, he was very optimistic about this young man.

Mr. Chen took the two of them directly to the study instead of talking in the living room. This small detail showed that Mr. Chen treated Xu Qingyun differently and indeed did not treat him as an outsider.

"Qingyun, you said you got the license to produce sulfa drugs. Is that true?"

After sitting down in the study, the tea was not yet ready, so Mr. Chen asked directly. Chen Changcun, who was making tea, raised his head and looked at Xu Qingyun in surprise.

He is older than Xu Qingyun and is not a young man who knows nothing.

In fact, young people from big families have more and broader experiences. If they are ambitious family members, they can be said to be from two different worlds compared to young people from ordinary families.

This is true not only for the present, but also for the past and the future.

Chen Changcun knew very well that it was not easy to obtain the authorization for sulfa drugs, and that it would require a huge amount of money to obtain it.

"It's true. My father is still in the United States and just got the authorization not long ago."

Xu Qingyun smiled and nodded. When Mr. Chen heard that Xu Jiaming was in the United States, he no longer had any doubts. He had met Xu Jiaming and he was a very steady person.

"Can I ask how much did you get the authorization for?"

Mr. Chen continued to ask, the price was what he cared about. He knew that the Xu family was very big, but it was limited to one county, and there were many families like the Xu family in the country.

They simply don't have enough financial resources to buy such an expensive license.

"Three and a half million."

Xu Qingyun did not hide the fact that he came to Mr. Chen for cooperation, and he would have told him even without Mr. Chen asking.

"Dollars?" Mr. Chen asked immediately. Three and a half million French francs was impossible.

Americans won't want that much fiat currency, it would be about the same if converted into gold, but the price is too low.

"Yes."

Xu Qingyun nodded again. Although he had already guessed it, Mr. Chen still took a breath. The Chen family was not small, but the total assets were only a few million dollars. How could Xu Qingyun come up with 3.5 million US dollars at a time to purchase the license?
This is real money, not assets like land or factories.

“How much did you borrow from the bank?”

Mr. Chen asked again. In his mind, he must have borrowed such a large sum of money from a bank.

It is impossible to rely on only one person, let alone Xu Qingyun. Even if it is him, to take out so much cash, he must go to a bank, otherwise he simply cannot take it out.

(End of this chapter)
