Although the northern country is still a little cold at this time, in Southeast Asia, where there is no winter, it is the scorching sun at this time, and the golden sun is sprinkled overhead.

The streets of the town, where locals are barefoot or dressed in simple straw sandals, are busy with steamers spitting black smoke from time to time leaning towards the harbor, and since the city became a French colony, more and more external elements have been injected into the area. Of course, there are also Japanese geisha wearing kimonos and twisting their waists.

In the town, there is a small Japanese-style building, and geisha haunt it from time to time. If you put some thought into it, there are also a large number of geisha in Shanghai and other parts of Tohoku. It seems that the achievements since the Meiji Restoration have not been shared much by these poor poor women, and in fact, some of the so-called craft powers at this time have far more political turmoil and darkness within themselves than later generations imagined. A regime is itself a process of continuous improvement.

"Hu Jianmingjun, did you bring the information I wanted?" Yuming Bingwei sat across the table with a sturdy man in his thirties, poured a cup of tea for the other party and asked respectfully.

"Of course, I've already brought the information, but do you have the money I need?"

Although the sturdy man is kneeling, his spine is straight, giving people a threat of breaking out and hurting people at any time, so that Yumei Bingwei, a karate master, also has a feeling of facing a fierce beast.

"Naturally, it's ready." Yuming Bingwei took out a small box from the side, and dozens of gold bars were neatly placed inside.

"That's it? It's still far from the price we negotiated before, so you'd better not play any tricks with me, otherwise, it won't be too difficult for our organization to end your power in Vung Tau. The sturdy man snorted.

"Of course, this is only an advance payment, but I also want to check the goods first, and if the information is indeed as valuable as you said before, then we will not lose any of what should be given. We, the samurai of the Great Japanese Empire, are very honest. Yu Ming Bingwei was not annoyed by the threat of the strong man, there were some white figures behind the other party, and maybe some Chinese from Nanyang were mixed in, and he was a little confused about the other party's origin now.

"The situation of the oil fields in Borneo has basically been explored clearly, according to the current information, the reserves of the oil fields are at least more than one billion tons, maybe this number is a bit false, not very accurate, but the current year's crude oil has reached more than seven million tons, here is the specific data of the oil fields sold to various countries last year, as well as the new input of machinery and equipment, according to estimates, this year's oil field production will not be less than eight million tons. I think this should be what your country desperately needs. The sturdy man handed the document bag that he had prepared a long time ago in front of Yumei Guard.

Yuming Bingwei opened it and took a cursory look, and his face, which was originally a little unwavering, suddenly made waves at this time, no wonder he was so excited in his heart, but at this time, Japan's dependence on oil was indeed extreme. As an important intelligence officer of the navy, Umeibei was very familiar with the level of oil tension in Japan at this time. Crude oil produced in Japan is very limited. Among them, Hokkaido has less than 8,000 tons a year, Taiwan has about 32,000 tons, Kitabata oil leased land is about 200,000 tons, Honshu has only about 230,000 tons a year, and the total is only more than 470,000 tons, as early as 1930, Japan consumed an astonishing 1.8 million tons of oil a year.

Among them, the navy is about 35 to 400,000 tons, and the army is no more than 100,000 tons, and with the increase in warships and the rapid expansion of the air force, this proportion is rising sharply. And every year, Japan's merchant ships, automobiles, fishing boats, factories, and lighting are becoming more and more dependent on oil with the process of industrialization.

So far, Japan's annual news about oil has approached 4 million tons, and this number is rising. Although Japan has been continuously increasing its strategic oil reserves, with the level of Utaki Guard, it is not enough to touch this core, but according to his calculations, it will be six or seven million tons to die. While Japan has a huge shortfall in oil consumption every year and is heavily dependent on imports, Borneo's oil fields are now producing more than 7 million tons a year, and they are still rising. It can fully meet all the needs of Japan. The Borneo oil field is also the closest large oil field to Japan. Moreover, in the whole of Southeast Asia, there was no force that could match the combined fleet head-on, and even the British fleet in the Far East was nothing to fear for the arrogant Japanese. In the face of increasing tension in Europe, it is impossible for the main force of the British fleet to cross the Suez Canal to Southeast Asia to compete with the entire fleet.

An oil field of this magnitude has a huge gap in crude oil for Japan, and this gap is getting bigger and bigger. There is undoubtedly a fatal allure. Of course, Japan can still rely on imports to fill this shortfall, and at the moment the Japanese navy is not crazy enough to gamble on this oil field. But it is not a matter of a day or two that the Borneo oil fields have entered the eyes of the Japanese top brass.

"I have some information about tin and copper mines, and if you are interested, you can provide them with money." The sturdy man saw Yuming Bingwei's surprised expression, and felt a little disdainful in his heart, one day, these people will fall into the abyss because of their greed.

"Very good, it is really a pleasure to work with you." Yumei Bingbei clapped his hands, and two middle-aged men dressed in kimonos each came over with a small bag of gold bars.

"This is your reward, if it is possible to get the situation of garrisons in various places, the empire will definitely not be stingy with money."

"About the situation with the garrison? This is a bit difficult, I have some relationships up and down, and there are also some aftermath matters, and the cost of it is not a small amount. After the sturdy man had examined the gold bars, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he snapped his fingers, and two tall black men outside strode in and put the gold bars away.

"It's easy to say, in short, the remuneration will definitely satisfy you." Yuming Bingwei said hesitantly, "Isn't our current cooperation going very smoothly?" ”

"Okay, I can't give you a specific reply to this matter, I need to go back to Rin and report to Mr. Mike about the risk. That's all for today, farewell! The sturdy man got up, arched his hand, and walked away with two black men.

Yumei Bingwei took the cup and drank all the tea inside, a pair of triangular eyes flashing with a dangerous light. (To be continued.) )
