Qin Lechi hadn't expected the ancient calligraphy to have such a good effect. Fujiwara Tomohito immediately put on a smiling face, becoming much more friendly and amiable. Qin Lechi was secretly delighted and quickly pressed his advantage, saying, "Chairman, I really have something to ask of you this time. It may be a bit presumptuous, but I hope you will approve."

After saying that, he put on a frightened look, but his eyes were carefully observing Ning Zhiheng's changes in expression.

Ning Zhiheng's eyes flashed briefly before disappearing again. He revealed a knowing expression and said dismissively, "Qin Sang, just say what you need to say. In Shanghai, my words, Fujiwara Tomohito's words, still carry weight!"

Hearing Ning Zhiheng's generous offer without any hesitation, Qin Lechi was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Then thank you very much, Chairman! It's like this, our Lehe Trading Company used to have many business partners in the southern Jiangsu area. However, after the war, due to strict control over supplies, our business in the southern Jiangsu region was cut off. Now we want to rebuild our business ties in the southern Jiangsu region, but we don't have any channels to transport goods to the south..."

At this point, he glanced at Ning Zhiheng's face and, finding no displeasure, continued, "I've heard that the company has opened trade routes to Suzhou and Wuxi, so I'd like to use the company's transport vehicles to transport our goods to southern Jiangsu. I wonder if the chairman would agree?"

Ning Zhiheng immediately understood that Qin Lechi wanted to use the Fujiwara Company's connections to transport supplies out of Shanghai, and he was naturally willing to do so.

In fact, he had long intended to facilitate the transportation of supplies for the underground party organization. After all, using the Fujiwara Company's channels would ensure absolute safety and prevent any mishaps. However, it was difficult to communicate with the organization and he could not proactively raise this issue with the farmer, otherwise his identity would be exposed immediately. Now that Qin Lechi had delivered this opportunity to him, he could go with the flow and complete this assistance process discreetly.

Ning Zhiheng pretended to consider for a moment before slowly nodding and saying, "Qin Sang, I can agree to your request. After all, Su Jun and I are good friends. But business is business. You know that if you want to use the company's channels, you will have to pay an extra 70%. You need to be clear about this. Also, you must keep this a secret. Otherwise, if everyone does this, it will be very difficult for me."

Hearing that Ning Zhiheng had agreed to his request, Qin Lechi was overjoyed. He hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. Fujiwara Tomohito had agreed almost without any doubt.

As for the 70% markup, although the price is a bit high, it's worth it if it ensures safety and peace of mind.

After all, it was the underground party organization itself that transported the supplies, and the preparations and preventative measures they took were very costly. Most importantly, there was the issue of safety. If a problem occurred, it would not only result in the loss of goods but also the loss of personnel, which could lead to a major disaster. In comparison, it was much more cost-effective to use the Fujiwara Company's channels.

The organization leader, Lin Hanwen, also agreed to Qin Lechi's plan for this reason. Of course, the fact that the underground party organization had sufficient funds for its activities during this period was also a major reason. The huge sums of money sent by the Shadow twice were enough to purchase a large amount of supplies. There was nothing more important than supporting the troops in the southern Jiangsu mountain area.

Qin Lechi smiled broadly and readily agreed, "Of course, of course, the price will be handled according to your wishes. Lechi thanks the chairman for his care, and please rest assured that this matter will not be known to any unrelated people. Otherwise, you can hold me accountable."

Ning Zhiheng dared to raise the price for two reasons. First, he didn't want others to suspect anything, since it was reasonable for the Fujiwara Company to charge a high fee for such an operation. Second, he knew very well that the funds he gave to the organization were enough to cover this extra cost.

After the two had discussed and decided on the matter, Ning Zhiheng called Hirao Daichi in and explained the situation to Qin Lechi, letting Hirao Daichi make the specific arrangements.

Hirao Daichi naturally carried out the chairman's orders without question. Qin Lechi nodded in approval. This Chairman Fujiwara was straightforward and efficient; he accepted the gift and then got things done. It seemed that his calligraphy scroll had not been given for nothing!
