At the same time, in Shanghai Plum Blossom Hall.

Intelligence Department Chief Yoshijiro Suga took Deputy Director No. 76 Li Shiqun into the office of Kagesaki Joshi, and accidentally found that Ken Inaki, the Economic Department Chief, was also there.

"Your Excellency Colonel!"

Suga Yoshijiro Asahisa bowed his head heavily and then gave Ken Inukai a slightly slanted head.

Kagesasa Akio Suga Yoshijiro said lightly, and Ken Inukai also turned his head slightly to him.

"Kaishasa Taijun, Inukai Taijun." Li Shiqun took off his top hat, looked up and greeted Akisasa and Inukai Ken one after another, but neither Kaishasasa nor Inukai Ken ignored him.

If it were usual, Kagesasatsu and Inukai would nod to Li Shiqun for the need to win people's hearts, but today, because they were in a bad mood, they were too lazy to be perfunctory.

Why are you in a bad mood? One is because you were scolded by Okamura Niji yesterday, and then Zhong Yi made a move and lost the economic war that they had high hopes for, losing at least tens of millions of yen!

"Colonel!" Suga Yoshijiro said again, "According to the report of Agent No. 76 lurking in Zhenhai Port, the two bombings last night caused a heavy blow to King Zhong Yan. Even if it is the most conservative estimate, at least 50,000 tons of food were burned."

"Fifty thousand tons of grain were burned?" After hearing this, Ying Zuo Zhenzhao was not happy, but became even more angry. He then asked, "So how much grain is transported away?"

"Well..." Suga Yoshijiro was slightly suffocated when he heard this, and said, "The food transported away is about 700,000 to 800,000 tons."

"Between 700,000 tons and 800,000 tons?" One of Kyosaki's faces immediately turned into black charcoal.

Inuyakin, who was standing next to him, also looked gloomy. The Japanese quickly made up the bill in his heart. Such a large amount of food could allow King Zhong Yan to easily feed the more than 1.5 million refugees pouring into Yinjiang.

Not only that, there may even be excess food to support soldiers.

This further proves Okamura Yanji's judgment that this was a trap from the beginning.

Thinking of this, Inukai Ken wanted to slap himself in the face, so he was careless.

"Baga... Yalu!" Ying Zuozhenzhao cursed hatefully, then vented his anger on No. 76 and Li Shiqun's head. He immediately slapped Li Shiqun in the face and cursed sternly, "What are you doing on No. 76 for food? You can't even find out such a large sum of grain in the dock? What's the use of spending so much money to support you? A bunch of rice buckets are all rice buckets!"

"Hayi!Hayi!" Li Shiqun was beaten and had to bow repeatedly.

But in my heart, Li Shiqun had already greeted Ying Zuo Zhenzhao's ancestors for the eighteen generations. Damn, is this a big deal? It wasn't your instructions, saying that you just need to keep an eye on whether there is any bulk corn on the shore? If it weren't for your blind instructions, could we make such a low-level mistake?

Taking a deep breath, Hayaosa Hayao tried his best to calm himself down.

Then he asked Suga Yoshijiro again, "Suga Jun, King Zhong Yan, uh no, does Zhong Yi have any other actions besides rushing to transport food?"

"Hayi." Suga Yoshijiro said, "Just about to report to Your Excellency Colonel."

After a brief pause, Suga Yoshijiro continued: "Last night, in addition to mobilizing military and police and a large number of civilians to the Zhenhai Wharf to transport grain, Zhong Yi also launched an arrest operation on the Chen family and more than a dozen grain merchants. As of now, the Chen family and more than a dozen grain companies have all been arrested, and it may even have been killed!"

"Nani?" Ying Zuozaki said in surprise, "It's so fast?"

"Baga, grain!" Inukai Ken said anxiously, "Where is the grain in their hands?"

Suga Yoshijiro shook his head and said, "Not only did they hoard nearly 200,000 tons of grain, but even their property had been confiscated by Zhong Yi!"

"Baga!" Ying Zuo Zhenao heard this and immediately said in a frustration, "Has the house been confiscated?"

"Baga, how can this be done?" Inuyangjian said dumbfounded, "Even if the Chen family and more than a dozen grain merchants hoarded goods, they would just disrupt the commercial order. At most, they would be fined a little money. How could they be searched? Is Zhong Yi too unreasonable? Is there any national law in his eyes? Is he still talking about the rules?"

After a pause, Ken Inukai wailed loudly again: "He is completely unreasonable!"

Ying Zuozhenzhao also wailed loudly: "Doesn't this mean that the money we lend to the Chen family and the dozen grain merchants will not only be lost if the interest is lost, but the principal will also be lost?"

"Yes." Suga Yoshijiro said sadly, "It seems that this is the case at the moment."

"Oh no, it's not just a matter of money." Inukai continued to wail, "There is still food."

After a pause, Ken Inukai said again: "Not only is the money gone, but what's worse is that we have promised Commander Okamura that the food has not dropped. How can we explain to Commander Okamura when we look back?"

Ying Zuo Zhenzhao was stunned when he heard this. Yes, what should I do?

Thinking of this, Ying Zuo Zhenao turned around and walked out. Now, let's hide first.

While walking outside, Kagesa said to Ken Inaki: "Inaki, if Commander Okamura comes to me, you will say I'll go to Tilanqiao Prison for inspection and may not go back to Shanghai today."

Because I turned around and talked, I didn't look outside the door, and I almost collided with a person walking in.

It was also a coincidence that the person who was walking into the door was either someone else, or the commander of the 11th Army, Okamura Yasuji, whom he mentioned.

"Kaishaki?" Okamura Yasuji pushed Kaishaki to prevent the two from colliding together, and said in surprise, "Where are you going so anxious? You want to go to Tilanqiao Prison for inspection?"

"Uh..." Ying Zuo Zhenao didn't know how to answer.

"Inukaijun is here too?" Okamura Yasuji turned his head and saw Inukai Ken again, and said with a smile, "How is the food matter done? Our merchant ship should be about to arrive in Yuyao, right? Have you got the food?"

Kagesaki Satoshi pretended to be mute, just looking back at Inukai Ken, you said.

Ken Inukai couldn't hide anymore, so he could only talk about him: "This, that, is like this..."

"Inukaijun!" Okamura's face immediately collapsed, and he said, "Is there something wrong?"

"Hayi." Ken Inukai paused and said, "The Commander, there was indeed a little problem."

"Is the amount of food not enough?" Okamura Niji frowned, "Tell me, how many kilograms are there?"
