Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

Colonel Malik's special trip to the expeditionary force camp to investigate originally made the soldiers of the expeditionary force a little worried, and they were all considering whether to restrain themselves.

The Japanese people also believe that things will change after the US military comes forward.

As a result, on the next day, before the soldiers of the expeditionary force went out for patrol, they found a new announcement posted on the bulletin board at the entrance of the camp.

While everyone was feeling anxious, they were in a state of dumbfounding after reading the announcement.

Of course, the content of the announcement made all the soldiers very happy. It turned out that the Japanese government established a comfort station in Osaka in order to meet the physiological needs of the occupying troops.

The so-called comfort stations are actually government-run brothels. Historically, the Japanese Communist Party organized and recruited approximately 55,000 Japanese women to provide comfort services for the US military stationed in Japan.

Comfort services priced at 15 yen per time are indeed not a lot of money for the US military.

Therefore, this service has indeed reduced the incidence of Japanese women being forced by US soldiers.

Moreover, it has found a source of livelihood for many Japanese women who have no enough food to eat, and indirectly promoted Japan's post-war economic recovery.

The soldiers of the expeditionary force were very excited about the content of this announcement at first, and some soldiers even went together.

But when I came outside the comfort station, I saw a long queue outside, and many soldiers turned around and came back.

As for Colonel Malik's coming to investigate, Fang Lang did not give any explanation or follow-up actions.

Everyone understands that without action or new orders, the commander has already taken care of the US military.

What else is there to say? Sing and dance, the task must be completed resolutely.

In this way, time passed slowly while all the Japanese people were complaining.

On October 3rd, the weather was fine, and Fang Lang finally waited for his father.

As early as the end of July, Fang Lang had informed his father that he would personally set out from Brazil with the fleet to carry the urgently needed supplies to his hometown.

Because it took some time to collect supplies and recruit crew members, we did not arrive in Shanghai until around September 20th.

After arriving at Xinshan, behind Shanghai, they unloaded the supplies and handed them over to the personnel responsible for immigration work in the fleet. Then they took the recruited crew members and rushed to Osaka non-stop.

After arriving in Osaka, the fleet was directly guided to berth next to the House, and the crew members who had been recruited began to become familiar with the two Japanese cargo ships received from Colonel Malik.

Fang Lang and his father were alone in Fang Lang's office in Osaka, talking behind closed doors for a full three hours. No one knew the specific content of the discussion.

At one time, Fang Lang had one cargo ship brought by Brazil, two Japanese cargo ships, and two fleet supply transport ships. A total of five transport ships.

After dinner that day, Fang Lang went to Colonel Malik's office with the US$100,000 in cash brought by his father.

Colonel Malik has been waiting very anxiously.

"Fang, you are finally here. Yesterday, General MacArthur established 10 administrative offices responsible for managing various areas of Japanese political life. I expect that they will arrive in Osaka and start work at the latest the morning of tomorrow.

We must move our equipment immediately, otherwise we will lose our way if they interfere."

This is the so-called Allied Forces Headquarters in the United States, referred to as the Allied Forces Headquarters. It was established on October 2 and is headquartered in Tokyo.

It consists of nine bureaus including the General Staff Department and the Civil Affairs Bureau, the Legal Affairs Bureau, the Statistics Bureau, the Economic and Science Bureau, the Civilian Intelligence Bureau, the Civilian Communications Bureau, the Civilian Intelligence and Education Bureau, the Natural Resources Bureau and the Public Health and Welfare Bureau.

Responsible for deciding and handling Japan-related matters, dividing labor to formulate various plans for post-war reforms, and guiding the implementation of various reforms.

All management work of the Japanese government is carried out under the guidance of these departments.

The so-called alliance is nominally composed of all the victorious countries against Japan among the Allied Powers. But in fact, other countries have no time to take into account Japan's situation, and the United States basically calls the shots.

And the first person in charge of this alliance is really the Japanese Emperor General MacArthur.

The establishment of the Alliance General Assembly represents the end of separate military control.

This is why Colonel Malik is so anxious to get angry.

Of course, Colonel Malik was not the only one who was anxious. Fang Lang was actually more anxious than Malik.

Once the alliance enters Osaka, it is impossible for Fang Lang to continue to maintain a vacuum between the two roads.

In other words, if Fang Lang wants to do something, it must be completed within these two days.

Fang Lang patted the military package he was holding and closed the office door.

"Alas! There is no way, I am also very anxious. Just take a look, this is yours. There are five ships in the port now, and we have been transporting and loading them day and night in the past two days. We hope it comes quickly."

Malik was not polite and reached out to open the package, only to see a bag full of U.S. dollars inside.

Fang Lang watched as Malik took out bundles of U.S. dollars and placed them on the table. In fact, at a glance, they were in denominations of one hundred U.S. dollars. Each bundle of one hundred U.S. dollars, a total of ten bundles, could be seen to be one hundred thousand U.S. dollars.

But Malik counted them one by one very carefully.

Fang Lang was not in a hurry, took out a cigar, lit it, and slowly smoked beside it.

He knows that Americans don't mind talking about money, and they will take stock of money matters face to face and will not avoid it.

Fang Lang has never seen the factory equipment that Malik mentioned in detail until now.

It would be a lie to say that he is not worried about being cheated.

However, everyone is a soldier, and there are some things that don’t need to be explained clearly if you want to defraud money from a soldier.

Then, you must be prepared to make money or lose your life, and don’t think that just because you are an American, you can sit back and relax.

The rebels are the best shield.

Colonel Malik finally finished counting the banknotes in his hand and stretched out his hand to Fang Lang with satisfaction.

"Fang, happy cooperation! I will take you there now. All the equipment has been packed and can be transported at any time."

Fang Lang also stood up and shook hands with him:

"That's good. We're going to inspect the goods now. We'll have to worry about the transportation."

After watching Malik lock the US dollars in the safe behind him, the two went out together and got into a Willys Jeep. Under the protection of a group of US military and expeditionary force convoys, they arrived at the foot of a hill near the ancient city of Osaka.
There is a large-scale factory at the foot of the mountain. Most of the factory buildings have been bombed and collapsed.

But Fang Lang saw a large number of trucks parked in the factory.

The two got off the car and walked through a factory building built against the mountain. There was no wall at all on the side of the mountain, but a huge passage.

Fang Lang has always known that the Japanese like to dig holes, but he never thought that there would be such a big project in downtown Osaka.

At this time, the lights were brightly lit in the depths of the cave. In addition to the American soldiers with guns on guard, Japanese workers in work clothes were packing equipment into wooden boxes.

Most of the equipment has been packed, and the remaining equipment will be packed tonight depending on the situation.

Fang Lang was not polite and walked into several pieces of equipment and looked at them carefully.

I found that most of the equipment was actually made in Germany.

He couldn't help but turn to Colonel Malik and said:

"German product?"

Malik shrugged and said:

"As far as I know, more than 65% of the machining equipment is German. There are also 20% American. The rest is Japanese. But as far as I know, the quality of Japanese products is very poor."

This is really an unexpected surprise. If he had known that there were so many German and American products, Fang Lang would not have hesitated to buy this batch of equipment!

Even if he doesn't produce artillery, Fang Lang can still use these equipment to produce many things.

Fang Lang knew very well that the Japanese machine tool industry in later generations was very developed, and was basically as famous as Germany and Switzerland.

However, Japanese machine tools during World War II were synonymous with poor quality.

Take the Japanese military officer's gun box as an example. It basically copies the work of the German Ruger P08.

However, due to unqualified processing technology and material technology, Japanese officers would get stuck even when they used it to commit suicide.

Everyone can see the Japanese machine tool processing technology.

So Fang Lang thought that this so-called artillery factory also used Japanese machinery. If the price hadn't been too low, Fang Lang might not have been willing to take over.

Now that he sees so many German and American machine tools, Fang Lang feels the same as picking up a leak.

Fang Lang just randomly checked a few packaged equipment and said without saying anything more that he could start loading the truck.

It's already dark now, but time is tight and tasks are heavy, and darkness can provide a good cover for this shady business.

Colonel Malik also gave direct orders without hesitation, and everyone started loading the trucks and transporting them to the dock.

Fang Lang did not stay here and wait, but left the factory directly with Colonel Malik.

Instruct soldiers from the first company of the Marine Corps to accompany the vehicle to escort him.

This is considered a public weapon for private use. However, the Marine Corps soldiers have no complaints.

Because Fang Lang is also the boss who pays them subsidies. Whoever gives the money will work for whom. This is a matter of course.

However, Fang Lang deliberately ordered the soldiers of the first company that all vehicles must pass through the two streets they had cleared.

Moreover, if another vehicle joins the road, you are not allowed to mention it to anyone.

You just need to ensure that all the materials are transported to the ship smoothly.

After returning to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force station, Fang Lang was not idle. He directly organized the soldiers of the second company in the camp and the guard platoon, and took a car to go out in the dark night.

No one knew the destination of the trip. Fang Lang, who was sitting in the lead car, guided the convoy along one of the two roads cleared by the soldiers of the expeditionary force.

Soon, all the vehicles came to a place, in front of a dilapidated factory that obviously had a very long history.

The entire factory is a masonry structure, a two-story building, about ten meters high, thirty-five meters long, and an independent factory building less than twenty meters wide.

Under the light of the car, you can see the moss covering the walls, telling you that this factory has a long history.
