While Boss Shao was at work, Mancang and Hongzhi wanted to list another two thousand tons of peanuts for sale. Boss Shao felt that it was crazy to have a full warehouse. It was unreasonable to continue the business even though he knew it would lose money. Since Mancang insisted, Boss Shao had no choice but to list it out for him. Yoshimura ate the two thousand tons again. After Mancang returned, he summoned all the workers in Deyouju and asked them to quietly collect peanuts from various places. After receiving the peanuts, they would temporarily stop outside the city and then transport them into the city after being notified. Mancang repeatedly told them to keep a low profile.
Seeing that the delivery date was getting closer, Mancang thought carefully to see if there were any missing links. He was afraid that if any missing links were missed, Yoshimura would take advantage of him. But he couldn't think of anything he hadn't considered. So he found the Chinese director of the institute and asked him for advice sincerely and humbly. The Chinese director also had national integrity and could not stand the domineering behavior of the Japanese, so he suggested that it would be best to bring foreigners in. When foreigners are involved, it will no longer be a transaction between China and Japan. Mancang is grateful for the director's advice.
When Frisch was found in a full warehouse, he took out a check. It turned out that Yoshimura had given Frisch a check before, prepaying him half a month's salary and asking him to provide him with a warehouse full of intelligence. Frisch told him that Mancang had not received many peanuts so far, only two sacks. This is consistent with the information obtained by the spies sent out by Yoshimura. Yoshimura was relieved. Mancang temporarily accepted the check for Frisch, and at the same time told him that he had provided 100,000 yuan as the capital for him to invest in Deyouju, and asked him to serve as Deyouju's manager. Frisch was dumbfounded.
Nowadays, the price of peanuts has dropped sharply. Boss Ge and Boss Zhao, who helped Yoshimura monopolize the peanut harvest, collected a large amount of peanuts according to Yoshimura's instructions. They couldn't sit still and asked Yoshimura if he would sell it to him for the full original price as agreed. Who knew that Yoshimura turned his back and said that the price of peanuts had dropped so much, how could he accept it. He also asked them not to sell peanuts to a full warehouse and let them store them in the warehouse and sell them next year. The two bosses were immediately dumbfounded. The high warehouse rental fee and the fact that the peanuts will be damp and infested with insects for a long time will cause them heavy losses. The two of them were crestfallen. The two bosses, Ge and Zhao, did not want to sit still and wait for death. They wanted to sell peanuts to Mancang. Mancang sympathized with them, but regardless of past grudges, they were willing to buy the whole thing at their purchase price. The two survived in desperate situations and were grateful to Mancang. They stated that they would no longer obey the Japanese who went back on their word.
Yoshimura saw that there were still only two sacks of peanuts in the fully leased warehouse until the delivery day, and he felt that he had a winning chance. So he confidently went to the sourcing office to make the settlement with Frisch, Hongzhi and Xiaoman, the representatives of Deyouju. Yoshimura thought Mancang was embarrassed to attend. He proudly told Frisch that he had to inspect the goods first. They did not provide the goods in full and were waiting for compensation and fines. Frisch asked him to go to the window and look into the street. Yoshimura walked to the window suspiciously, only to see the streets full of carriages and a group of carriages heading towards the search station. Yoshimura was dumbfounded.
Yoshimura did not believe that Mancang could receive peanuts. He ran downstairs and randomly opened sacks of sacks on the carriage. As a result, everything that came out of the sacks was peanuts. Mancang looked at Yoshimura calmly and asked him that there were many carriages dragging peanuts outside the city. Should he help him drag them to the warehouse or here? Yoshimura started acting rogue again and kept saying that the deal was cancelled. The Japanese director of the Citation Institute told him that it was impossible to cancel the transaction because this time there were Germans involved and his doing so would cause an international dispute. Yoshimura was like a defeated rooster, so he could only ask the directors to plead with Tokuju, grant him three days of grace to raise money, and beg them to reduce the amount of the fine.
