Chapter 38 New Mission
Chapter 38 New Mission
With a thought, Lin Wan put the submachine gun into the time-space treasure chest.
In this world, no one but the two of them could take it out.
There's no need to worry about being exposed and getting arrested.
Lin Wan put away her submachine gun, a glint of shrewdness flashing in her large eyes.
He laughed happily, "After I get back, I'll follow your instructions and have Manager Lu invite the three big bosses out for dinner."
Even the requirements for selecting dancers are based on what you said: they must be tall and have long legs!
Then I told them that a friend from the south had asked me to help sell a batch of the latest stockings.
They believed me without question, assuming that my friend from the south was from Guangzhou, and guessing that he might be an American.
They simply didn't believe that our Party could produce such thin and transparent stockings, and they didn't even suspect that possibility.
Therefore, they have no doubt about what I say.
Then I had four sexy dancers change into stockings so they could verify it for themselves.
However, that kind of occasion wasn't suitable for a girl like me, so I left first.
The very next morning, they came to me with silver dollars, antiques, and medicinal herbs to make a deal.
Hehe, you were absolutely right! Men can't resist the allure of stockings!
Two thousand pairs of stockings were all divided up by them, and all in cash!
However, they did not officially enter the market; they only sold them privately on a small, targeted basis.
It was recommended to high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen, and its influence was limited to the upper echelons.
It is said that a certain officer of the garrison command bought a hundred pairs of shoes to send to the Nanjing commander as gifts for his wife and female relatives.
Two thousand pairs of stockings were all divided up by the upper-level bureaucrats.
Like a drop of water in the ocean, it didn't cause a ripple.
To truly enter the market and sell them in department stores, at least 10 pairs are needed!
The three big bosses specifically instructed my friend in Guangzhou to ship the goods as soon as possible!
Lin Wan spoke vividly, her face flushed with excitement.
The saying goes, "No comparison, no harm," meaning you'll be disappointed if you compare prices before throwing things away!
Nylon stockings may have been a fashion trend during the Republic of China era, but their drawbacks, such as being opaque and not breathable, were obvious.
Without comparison, people will find it sexy and beautiful.
However, when the advantages of high transparency, excellent elasticity, and superior breathability of core-spun stockings are revealed, the difference becomes significant.
Those upper-class ladies all wear nylon stockings, so they know best about their quality and feel.
So I was immediately captivated just by seeing the transparent, sexy stockings on the dancers' bodies.
In addition, the quantity is limited, and the family is not short of money, so naturally they want to buy more pairs to stock up.
Although it was early March of the Republic of China and the weather was still a bit chilly, these wealthy ladies were already showing off their transparent and sexy stockings despite the cold.
Nowadays, it is an honor for upper-class women to wear sexy stockings.
The sale of these stockings not only solved the transportation station's funding problem, but also allowed them to be exchanged for a batch of antiques and medicinal herbs.
Among all the transportation companies in the country, they are definitely among the richest!
Chen Huai'an listened quietly, not surprised that this batch of stockings only circulated among the upper class.
The rule of order has never changed!
Chen Huai'an stole a glance at the pretty face next to him, his gaze revealing an indescribable complexity.
The plan for the deal was indeed his idea.
However, there is still a slight difference in the order compared to Lin Wan's description.
He considered that Lin Wan was a girl, and perhaps out of selfishness, he planned to select three big bosses and have Manager Lu invite them out for dinner to discuss business.
The plan was to first have tea and chat in the private room to gauge whether the three big bosses were interested in cooperating.
Then, four dancers were made to wear stockings and walk around like models on a runway.
I believe that any man who sees modern core-spun stockings can immediately see the difference and advantages compared to nylon stockings.
Once everyone has finished talking, we can have dinner and drinks.
The cooperation agreement was finalized over a dinner!
However, Lin Wan got the order mixed up and only inspected the goods after eating and drinking.
As the saying goes, "When you're well-fed and warm, you start thinking about other things." After a few drinks, and then having a few dancers in stockings come up and walk around, it's no wonder that people can't control themselves!
Chen Huai'an's idea was to let them see the results, and then they could basically start negotiating.
As a result, the experiment was conducted by drinking the alcohol and then testing the results on the hands, making the effects even more intuitive.
This is remarkably similar to his past practice of treating clients to meals and baths all at once.
This little genius is practically self-taught, perfectly combining business negotiation with bathhouse culture!
What he didn't know was that Lin Wan, as a reporter, had seen all sorts of situations.
Moreover, during the Republic of China era, when nightclubs were legally open, she disguised herself as a man and secretly sneaked in to take photos, which were then published in the newspaper.
Even if you've never seen pork, haven't you at least seen a pig run?
Lin Wan knew perfectly well that even if Chen Huai'an followed his plan, he would still call the four dancers into the private room after drinking.
That's why they left so early.
Sure enough, the next morning, the three big bosses arrived with their goods.
Chen Huai'an nodded, got up and quickly walked to the corner, taking out several inflatable plastic bags from the cardboard box.
"Put your things inside; this is all money!"
These inflatable plastic bags are provided to prevent antiques from being damaged.
Holding each antique in my hands, I was overjoyed.
While tidying up her things, Lin Wan said in a low voice, "I've received instructions from my superiors that I have an important mission that requires your help!"
Chen Huai'an nodded: "What mission? Now that we have money, we can buy anything!"
His voice was full of confidence.
In this day and age where money talks, there's almost nothing you can't accomplish if you're willing to spend the money.
If it doesn't work, it means the money isn't enough!
"The higher command has ordered the 9th and 10th Corps of the Third Field Army to take on the main attack mission of liberating Shanghai."
With the liberation of Nanjing imminent, the remnants of the Kuomintang forces would inevitably retreat to Shanghai.
According to preliminary estimates, at least nine armies and more than 20 divisions will be stationed in Shanghai, with a troop strength of between 200,000 and 300,000.
This is a tough battle. Our superiors have ordered us to gather as much medicine as possible and collect intelligence on the enemy's troop deployment.
To prepare for the liberation of Shanghai!
I suspect that such a momentous event as the liberation of Shanghai must have been recorded in history books.
So I wanted to find clues about the battle at that time by making records.
Even knowing the exact number of troops would be a significant gain.
Chen Huai'an narrowed his eyes, and relevant records flashed through his mind.
According to the timeline from the Republican era, Nanjing should have been liberated in another month.
Although a battle took place, it was not large in scale, and Nanjing was liberated quickly.
On the contrary, the retreating troops all went to Shanghai, forming a huge force.
Although the army annihilated more than 15 enemy troops under the command of General Su, it also suffered 3.3 casualties.
If we could obtain more intelligence and information on troop deployments from the future world, we could reduce casualties.
"good!"
Chen Huai'an agreed without hesitation: "I'll arrange the medicine, and I'll search for relevant records about the mission as soon as possible, print them out, and you can take them back!"
