Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat - Chapter 373

Chapter 373 Arms business

Hearing that the other party said that his Fang family had a close relationship with the US military, Fang Lang calmly glanced at Mr. Situ next to Ji Wanchang.

After the other party finished speaking, Fang Lang took a sip of the tea on the table unhurriedly.

Facing Ji Wanchang, he said:

“You just said that Malaysians are fighting for independence, so, are you here this time to purchase arms for Malaysians?”

“Ah! No, no, those Malaysians dare not directly go to war with the British.

We bought it for our own use. ”

Seeing that Fang Lang thought he was with the Malaysians, Ji Wanchang waved his hands repeatedly.

Staring at Ji Wanchang closely, Fang Lang wanted to see some of the other’s inner thoughts from his expression.

The reason why Fang Lang made an appointment with the other party in the afternoon was because Fang Lang was waiting for the Intelligence Bureau to provide him with information on Malaya.

On the way here, Fang Lang already had a certain understanding of the current situation in Malaya from the intelligence briefing provided by the Intelligence Bureau.

It turned out that during the Japanese occupation period in Malaya, a rebel army had been active, and the strength of this rebel army was not bad. At its strongest, it had grown to eight brigades with more than 10,000 people.

The predecessor of this army was the guerrilla backbone trained by the British 101 Special Training School. The reason why the British trained them was actually a helpless move.

At that time, the Japanese had already landed in Malaya, and the British army was powerless to resist. Finally, when they knew that they were unable to continue to rule Malaysia, they released more than 200 members of the Malay Communist Party who had been imprisoned by them.

And threw some old obsolete equipment to this team, let them make some trouble for the new ruler of Malaya, the Japanese.

According to the information provided by the Intelligence Bureau, except for a very small number of Malays in this anti-Japanese force, most of them are Chinese.

Of course, there is a reason for this. After all, the Japanese knew that during the war in their hometown, the Chinese in Southeast Asia supported the War of Resistance.

So, after the Japanese landed in Malaya, they began to massacre Malaya Chinese.

The Chinese were forced to flee from various prosperous towns to the jungle, and some of them naturally took the initiative to join the anti-Japanese team.

Therefore, most of the members of this rebel army are Chinese, and it is a matter of course.

The attitude of the Japanese towards the Malays is to support their independence, and in the name of helping them drive away the British colonists, they support the pro-Japanese Malay government.

In the eyes of most Malays, the Japanese are actually liberators, so the Malays are actually standing with the Japanese.

When the devils surrendered, the rebels took over many towns from the devils and gained some influence in Malaya.

But what people didn’t expect was that Wright, the leader of this Communist Ma resistance army, turned out to be a British agent.

When the British returned to Malaya, Wright ignored everyone’s opposition and forcibly ordered the rebel fighters under him to lay down their weapons and demobilize.

Let this Malayan Chinese armed force be ruined directly inexplicably.

Later, the British were even more malicious and vigorously promoted the contribution of the Chinese in the Southeast Asian battlefield. In contrast, there was massive oppression and exploitation of the local indigenous Malays.

Through this method of killing people, the local ethnic conflicts were intensified, which led to the subsequent murder.

So, after Fang Lang learned of this information, his first reaction was whether this Ji Wanchang had anything to do with this rebel army.

After confirming that the other party was not purchasing arms for Malaysians, Fang Lang asked directly:

“Then Hall Master Ji, can you explain to me, who are you representing to purchase?

Or, explain why you want to purchase arms? ”

This question obviously caused Ji Wanchang to fall into deep thought, and he didn’t make a sound for a long time. Seeing this situation, Fang Lang didn’t urge him, but just took out a cigar and lit it for himself, and motioned to everyone, and began to wait quietly for the other party’s reply .

After thinking for a while, Ji Wanchang slowly raised his head, glanced at everyone, and said as if he had made up his mind:

“Mr. Fang, everyone is Chinese, so I won’t hide some things from you.

This time, we Chinese in Penang want to build a force of our own, and build a homeland in Malaya that belongs to us. ”

As soon as these words came out, Fang Xinshui was the first to show surprise. He never thought that this unobtrusive owner of the Hongmen Yiyi Hall in Penang would have such courage.

Mr. Situ on the side looked as if he had expected it, as if everything was as he expected.

Fang Lang still looked calm and breezy, looked up and down carefully at Ji Wanchang who was opposite him, and said lightly:

“Are you from the Communist Party of Malaysia?”

Ji Wanchang was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Fang Lang in disbelief, and stammered:

“Mr. Fang misunderstood, I…I am not.”

Hearing this, Fang Lang frowned, and said with some dissatisfaction:

“Mr. Ji, I am a Chinese, I don’t care about your beliefs, and I don’t mind.

You don’t have to hide it from me at all.

I support your idea of ​​arming the Chinese in Southeast Asia and building a Chinese country.

However, if you want me to provide you with arms, at least we must trust each other.

The basis of trust is that we need to understand each other.

If you are not even willing to tell me your identity, where will our foundation of trust come from? ”

Situ Wenyan on the side also took a look at Ji Wanchang, and said slowly:

“Wanchang, Mr. Fang is right,

If you want to gain the trust of others, you really should be honest with people.

The Communist Party of Malawi is not a scourge, so there is no need to cover up.

I have met a lot of people in my hometown who have the same beliefs as you, and I think they are all honest men.

Since we are for the common interests of Chinese compatriots, there is nothing we cannot say to others. ”

Fang Xinshui also looked at Ji Wanchang with dissatisfied eyes, as if you were an honest boy.

At this time, Ji Wanchang made people look like he was about to cry, and waved his hands again and again:

“Everyone really misunderstood, I am really not the Communist Party of Malaysia.

The reason why I am nervous is because the attitude of the Malayan government towards the Malayan Communist Party is not good. Although it is not to the extent of eliminating it, it still targets it everywhere.

If I am considered a member of the Malay Communist Party, the development of our Yee Yee Church in Penang may be severely restricted. ”

Ji Wanchang was not wrong on this point. In fact, the British, who started as colonists in 1948, issued a special emergency regulation with the purpose of suppressing the former rebel members of the Republic of Malawi.

The following year, the Communist Party of Malaysia began to embark on the road of armed resistance, although it failed in the end.

But it must be said that without the armed resistance of the Communist Party of Malaysia, the British would never easily agree to the independence of Malaya.

It is a pity that the Chinese-led Malay Communist Party did not succeed in the end. Instead, it made wedding dresses for Malays.

Fang Lang felt a little strange seeing that Ji Wanchang didn’t seem to be lying. Could it be that this guy was the group who later established Singapore.

These guys are a bunch of nationalistic people, and they don’t have any national plot at all.

But it doesn’t matter, no matter which faction it is, as long as he is a Chinese compatriot, when they need help, he will still help them if he can.

Thinking of this, he said directly:

“Oh! It doesn’t matter, yes or no is not important.

As long as you are really Chinese armed, I can sell arms to you. ”

Ji Wanchang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said excitedly:

“Really? That would be really nice.”

But Fang Lang waved his hand, turned to Mr. Situ and said:

“Mr. Situ, I have a question. I don’t know if I should talk about it or not?”

Mr. Situ obviously didn’t think about why Fang Lang suddenly changed the topic to himself when the two were chatting well.

Without thinking too much, he said directly:

“It’s okay, if Mr. Fang has anything to say, just ask.

I know everything and say everything. ”

Nodding, Fang Lang looked at Mr. Situ seriously and said:

“I believe that with Mr. Situ’s energy, he can find a suitable arms channel for Mr. Ji in the United States.

I don’t know why Mr. Situ went far and wide to find our Fang family? ”

After hearing Fang Lang’s words, Mr. Situ immediately understood what Fang Lang meant. He was worried that there was some trap in it!

Mr. Situ said without hesitation:

“Mr. Fang is right, I was indeed able to purchase suitable arms from the United States for him.

Actually, our Fang’s house in the morning was also a coincidence.

Please rest assured, Mr. Fang, we have no malicious intentions.

Hall Master Ji and I just met in Sao Paulo the day before yesterday. When Hall Master Ji asked me to buy arms, I immediately thought of going to the United States to help them purchase.

However, yesterday we saw the influence of the Fang family in Sao Paulo, and thought of your identity and the influence of Universal Group in the United States.

So, I temporarily proposed to tell Hall Master Ji that you can buy arms from the Fang family, so that you can avoid another trip to the United States. ”

Fang Lang obviously didn’t believe such a statement. After taking a serious look at the two of them, Fang Lang slowly said:

“Malaya is the territory of the British, and my identity is not suitable for blatantly selling arms to the master Ji.

In addition, we do not have weapons and equipment in stock in Brazil. If you want to buy American weapons, you still have to get them from the Americans in the end.

If Mr. Situ is willing, I can give you a call. After arriving in the United States, you can call this person directly to purchase the equipment you need.

Of course, this is just a pure business. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, I think it is best for you to purchase from him in the name of the other party. Avoid causing unnecessary trouble! ”

Hearing that Ji Wanchang pondered for a while, he looked up at Fang Lang again and said:

“I don’t know, Mr. Fang thinks it’s best to purchase in the name of whom.”

Fang Lang didn’t say much, and continued to say unhurriedly:

“It depends on what you want, the person I introduced to you doesn’t care too much about your real identities.

As long as you can give them an explanation and pay him real money, no matter what equipment you want, he will provide it to you. ”

Actually, the current U.S. government doesn’t care too much about the whereabouts of weapons, because the equipment they support is everywhere in the world, and there are too many people using American equipment.

It is basically impossible to trace the source.

So, Fang Lang is going to introduce them directly to the business personnel of Shata Company.

The reason for doing this was that Fang Lang felt that the two of them were not telling the truth and were hiding something from him.

As for whether the other party is really hiding something, Fang Lang only needs to trade arms once, and Fang Lang can investigate clearly by tracking the transaction process and whereabouts of the arms.

Ji Wanchang hesitated after hearing Fang Lang’s words. After hesitating for a while, he slowly said:

“Mr. Fang, I wonder if you can tell us who the person you introduced is.

Will it be?”

Seeing the other party’s hesitant expression, Fang Lang understood that the other party was afraid that the news of the purchase of arms would be exposed.

“That’s why I asked you to use someone else’s name to purchase!

Whether you will be exposed depends on whether you are cautious enough.

In addition, it also depends on the quantity of arms you purchase. If the quantity is too large, it will certainly attract the attention of others! ”

This is obviously different from Ji Wanchang’s original plan. Although Fang Lang is talking about supporting the Chinese independence movement, his actual actions are indeed obviously defensive.

Even Ji Wanchang felt that the other party didn’t really want to help them at all, but simply regarded it as a business.

Looking at Mr. Situ beside him, Ji Wanchang sighed in his heart, and said slowly:

“alright, I got it.”

Mr. Situ on the side saw this, looked at Fang Lang, and then at Ji Wanchang before saying:

“Wanchang, do you have something to hide from us?

You want to buy arms, Mr. Fang has already introduced you to the right person, why do I feel that you are not satisfied. ”

When Ji Wanchang heard this, a trace of panic flashed across his master’s face, but he quickly covered it up.

But Mr. Situ is also a person who is mature and mature, and he still captures the micro-expressions of just a moment.

So, before Ji Wanchang could speak, Mr. Situ’s tone became severe and said:

“Wanchang, I took the initiative to introduce the Fang family to buy arms for you because everyone belongs to the Hongmen.

But it seems that what you want is not just arms,

Now you’d better tell me honestly why you want to purchase arms and what are you hiding from us. ”

Fang Xinshui felt that this matter was not simple from the very beginning, so he sat on the sidelines like an outsider and observed the expressions of Mr. Situ and Ji Wanchang.

Seeing Mr. Situ’s appearance now, he couldn’t help shaking his head helplessly.

It seems that I must have misunderstood Mr. Situ.

And Fang Lang’s attitude is also very calm, he will not make any decisions easily, and since the other party is unwilling to tell the truth, he will not force it.

Now it is just introducing an arms channel for the other party, which has no effect on Fang Lang.

As for whether the other party will use his name to contact the person he introduced to him, he believes that the other party should not be that stupid.

When you don’t know the relationship between yourself and the other party, you spread some information that may cause you trouble, which is not what a wise person does.

If the other party was originally Fang Lang’s own person, wouldn’t his behavior of pulling Fang Lang into the water soon reach Fang Lang’s ears?

The attitudes of several people obviously put a lot of pressure on Ji Wanchang. For a while, he couldn’t lift his head up. After listening to Mr. Situ’s words, he bowed his head and remained silent for a long time.
