Chapter 488 How can it be so simple?
Jingren went to look at some boxes, then looked at Zhou Zhengqing and asked, "Takasaki-kun, who should we give all this money to? Kawabe Masazo?"
"Huh?" Zhou Zhengqing looked at Jingren with a puzzled look on his face, then returned to his office chair and sat down, asking calmly, "To Kawabe Masazo? Your Highness is planning to give my money away?"
Jingren scratched his ears, then pointed at the boxes and said, "Takasaki-kun, are you still asleep? These are all the money of the garrison troops. There are so many of them, and there may be military expenses in them. If we don't return them..."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhengqing immediately raised his hand to interrupt, then looked at Nakamura Shunsuke and others and asked, "Is this money from the Garrison Command? Why do I remember that it was originally the money of our Military Police Command?"
Shunsuke Nakamura still had some shame and opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
But there are shameless people here!
Ogura Daichi jumped out and shouted, "General, Your Highness! These are the money and supplies we brought from Harbin. Because of the bombing of our headquarters by the garrison bombers, we were afraid of financial losses, so we just moved the things to the garden for centralized custody. Now these in the office are just for us to show General Yingqi that the money has not been lost.
The garrison headquarters had long been destroyed by incendiary bombs dropped by the navy, and the inside was burned out.
Therefore, there is no military expenditure for the garrison headquarters here, and our military police would never rob friendly forces. Please do not misunderstand, Your Highness!"
"Yoshi!" Zhou Zhengqing nodded to Ogura Daichi in appreciation, then looked at Jingren who was a little dumbfounded and said: "Your Highness, did you hear that? These are originally our own things!" When he said our own, he emphasized his tone.
Then he said calmly, "Tsk, I didn't expect that our military police had accumulated so much money without us noticing!" He looked around at everyone and said loudly, "I have decided to double all the military police's allowances. In addition, Prince Jingren will be given an additional 500 yen subsidy every month because he has to manage the tank team."
"Hi!" Everyone responded in unison, with Nakamura Shunsuke and Ogura Daichi speaking the loudest and most excitedly.
Jingren opened his mouth and whispered "Hi Yi".
He is a member of the royal family, and his food, clothing, housing and transportation are all provided by the royal family. He also receives an additional royal subsidy every month, but the amount is not much.
When Jing Ren was in the country, most of his expenses were reimbursed by the royal family, so he didn't care much about money.
But after joining the military police, Jingren gradually learned how to spend money and how to enjoy life under the guidance of people around him, and he also realized that money is a good thing.
Five hundred yen plus his original allowance was already a lot of money for him. . . .
Seeing that Jingren had nothing to say, Zhou Zhengqing smiled, then waved his hand and asked Ogura Daichi to have someone move the box away.
Then he asked Nakamura Shunsuke, "Where is Kazuki Seiji?"
"Reporting to the General, they are over there in the temporary prison with Hashimoto Gun, Takeda Hirokazu and other senior officers from the garrison headquarters," Nakamura Shunsuke replied with a bow.
Zhou Zhengqing tapped the table with his hand. After a moment of silence, he said, "His Majesty the Emperor wants us to exercise restraint. Now is the critical period of the war against China. He wants us to put the overall situation first and let me release Xiangyue Qingsi and others. What do you think we should do?"
"Hmph, we can't just let Katsuki Seiji and the others go like that! We can't just let go of the bombing of our headquarters." When Itai Yudai heard that Zhou Zhengqing wanted to let them go, he immediately jumped out and shouted.
Nakamura Shunsuke spoke cautiously, "General, the Emperor is putting pressure on us, and there is nothing we can do. I mean, why don't we release the people first?"
"Mr. Nakamura, what do you mean! So many military police have died, are we just going to let it go?" Nakagawa Ken shouted loudly, without mentioning that he and others had already retaliated against the garrison troops.
Zhou Zhengqing did not say anything, but watched quietly. He was not very satisfied with the two statements put forward by Shunsuke Nakamura and Yudai Itai.
At this time, Ogura Daichi suddenly smiled evilly and said, "General, since His Majesty the Emperor wants us to release the people, then we cannot disobey His Majesty's will. However, I believe His Majesty will not let our military police be humiliated like this. If we ask for some compensation from the garrison troops, I think His Majesty will not say anything."
After hearing what Ogura Daichi said, everyone present looked at him with strange eyes.
They have already emptied the garrison headquarters, but Ogura Daichi still wants compensation! What a talent! How shameless!
Just when everyone was feeling confused and didn't know what to say, Zhou Zhengqing suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Yoshi! Ogura-kun is right. We can release the people, but we must also pay compensation!"
Then Zhou Zhengqing said with a worried look: "But the issue of compensation still needs long-term consideration. Those guys in the garrison are very cunning and they certainly don't want to pay compensation easily." While speaking, he secretly raised his eyes to observe the expressions of everyone.
Jingren opened his mouth slightly, and his disgust for Zhou Zhengqing's shamelessness increased to a higher level.
Seeing Zhou Zhengqing pretending to be worried, Ogura Daichi quickly said, "Don't want to pay compensation? General, this matter is not something the garrison troops can do whatever they want!
We will mobilize personnel now to thoroughly investigate the damage caused by the bombing. From every damaged part of the headquarters building to the pensions for the sacrificed and injured soldiers, every detail and every expense will be listed in detail, accurate to the last penny, so that they cannot deny it! " As he spoke, Ogura Daichi vigorously waved his arms, as if he wanted to convey all his determination through this action.
Koto Saburo looked at Ogura Daichi's excitement and stammered, "Ogura-kun, those garrison troops are not easy to deal with. If they cheat and say the bombing was an accident and refuse to compensate, what should we do?"
Zhou Zhengqing's eyes flashed with ruthlessness: "Mistaken bombing? It's not that simple!"
Nakamura Shunsuke hesitated for a moment, took a small step forward, and lowered his voice: "But General, will this offend the garrison troops? It will be difficult for us to deal with each other in the future. After all, we all serve the emperor. If the relationship becomes too strained..." He was interrupted by Zhou Zhengqing before he finished his words.
His tone was full of disdain: "What are you afraid of! They blew up our headquarters first and didn't think about dealing with them properly. If we don't get compensation this time, how can we military police survive here in the future!"
"But General, the explosion of our gendarmerie headquarters, actually..." Nakamura Shunsuke thought of the key issue and wanted to say something, but halfway through, he saw Jingren was still here, so he quickly shut up.
Zhou Zhengqing just didn't know that the explosion at the Military Police Headquarters was caused by his own people?
Of course he knew! Not only that, but he also knew that the smashed Type 2 tank was actually just disassembled. In the end, Itai Yudai still didn't dare to really blow up a Type 2 tank.
For Zhou Zhengqing, it didn’t matter how many military police died. The tanks that he had obtained from Germany with great difficulty were his real treasures.
If Yudai Itai really blew up one, he would never let Yudai Itai off so easily this time.
