Chapter 176: Awakening Agent

Inujiro still asked in a daze: "Boss, I still don't understand, there are many things that are not allowed in this country, can this be profitable?" ”

Tang Ning was deeply helpless about Inujiro's stupidity, so he had to say: "You don't have to think about the rest, I'll tell you bluntly, I plan to do the awakening agent business next." You are familiar with Tokyo, and you will be in charge of the underground awakening potion market in Tokyo. (Awakening technique, hehe, it has a sense of immediacy in online games.) οΌ‰

The awakening agent mentioned here is actually the predecessor of ice (everyone is just referring to something, it is a sensitive word when written), and it is called "cat eye ingots", "assault ingots" or "air attack ingots" in the Japanese army. In World War II, the Japanese army used a large number of awakening agents, so that after the soldiers took it, they would fight tirelessly, and even show a crazy mental state, of course, this is also related to the so-called Japanese bushido spiritual confusion. The most famous in this regard is the "kamikaze squad", also known as the suicide plane squad, which rushed to the US fleet in high excitement with fighter planes after taking the awakening agent.

Not only that, but the Japanese army also cultivated and sold opium poppies in large quantities in China. At that time, Rehe Province was the largest product of opium poppy, and according to the report of the head of the Chengde gendarmerie in October 1936, the planting area of Opium Poppy in Rehe that year was 650,000 mu, and the total harvest was 100,000,000 taels. In 1939, Hebei, Shandong, Southwest China, Henan and other occupied areas were also planted in large quantities.

In Beiping at that time, in every street and alley, you can see the "white-faced houses" and poppy smoke houses opened by the Japanese. "White noodles" and "red pills" are sold publicly. In 1940, after Guangzhou was occupied by the Japanese army, there were 11,552 new tobacco houses.

After World War II. Awakening pills are widely and legally sold in Japan as munitions, and most of them are sold in domestic pharmacies and grocery stores in the form of tablets or injections, and the prices are extremely cheap. At that time, there were generally two kinds of people who took awakening agents: one was that the Korean War stimulated the rapid development of Japanese industry, and the factory owners wished that the workers could work overtime 24 hours a day to ensure output, and the awakening agents could keep the workers strong in physical strength and energy; The other is due to the inability to accept the fact of defeat. Mentally depressed, after taking awakening pills. There was a sense of relief and relaxation in the spirit, and the sadness seemed to change.

However, this awakening agent is opium poppy after all, and the Japanese government organized experts to set up a special investigation team and finally came to a conclusion. conAd1(); It was discovered that the sharp rise in criminal cases and the increasing number of mental illnesses in the country were related to the use of awakening drugs, and it was decided to ban awakening drugs. In 1951, the Japanese government promulgated the Law on the Suppression of Awakening Agents, which banned the production and sale of awakening agents.

Inujiro suddenly realized at this time: "Oh, boss, you originally meant this, isn't it, this awakening agent is indeed a good deal, there is nothing in our Okinawa Island, but in Tokyo." A lot of people who are used to using awakening potions are now going crazy, and if someone continues to sell awakening potions, they will definitely buy them. But the boss. This is the most suitable thing for the Matsuda group to do.,There are both storefronts and guards.,Can it be sold publicly.。 ”

Tang Ning scolded him: "You are confused, how can this matter be sold publicly, drugs such as awakening drugs will be banned in any country in the future." The Matsuda gumi is the foundation of everything I do in Tokyo, and I must not let that affect me. Therefore, it can only be sold privately, which is not only safe and safe, but also can raise the price. ”

"That's right, so we have an excuse to raise prices, then boss, how much do you say we will rise?"

Tang Ning thought for a while and said: "Don't worry about this, now take advantage of the fact that the Awakening Agent Ban Law has just been implemented, and there are still a lot of awakening agents on the market that have not been confiscated, you quickly organize people to carry out a large number of purchases and hoarding, and when you have accumulated a certain supply of goods on hand and can control the monopoly market, won't the price be set by us." However, pay attention to safety when acquiring, we are definitely not the only ones who do this, other underworld forces will definitely intervene, and there are Matsuda gumi to help you in Tokyo, and you must be more careful when you go to other places, especially the Yamaguchi-gumi. ”

After sending Inujiro away, Tang Ning came to Junichi Aoyama, and after retiring the guards and maids around him, Tang Ning whispered, "I have a secret matter that I need you to help me deal with." ”

Seeing Tang Ning so cautious, Qingshan Yun knew that there must be something important to tell him, so he took him to the secret room, and then said: "Tony, if you have anything, just say it directly, do we need to help or not." ”

Tang Ning held up two fingers and said, "Actually, there are two things, the first is that I need to establish a secret awakening potion production and research and development base on a nearby island. Second, I need a few reliable people to travel to Chiang Mai province in Thailand and establish long-term cooperation with there. conAd2(); ”

Junichi Aoyama asked with some surprise, "Chiang Mai, Thailand?" You don't want to buy poppies, do you? ”

Tang Ning nodded: "That's right, it's to buy poppies, and you still have to buy a lot of them, for a long time." "Tangning, another drug-producing city, may not know, but how can he not know the famous Golden Triangle.

The 'Golden Triangle' roughly encompasses Shan and Kachin States in northern Myanmar, Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai in northern Thailand, Luang Namtha, Phongsali and Oudomxay provinces in Laos, and Luang Prabang in western Laos.

The land here is fertile, the climate is warm and humid, the subtropical long-term sunshine makes there enough sunlight here to promote the growth of all kinds of plants, the changes of the monsoon zone in Southeast Asia make the formation of dry and wet seasons here, the southwest monsoon brings a lot of hot and humid water from the sea in summer to form a wet season when the rainfall is abundant, and the dry season is formed when the dry and cold monsoon belt in the north is affected by the east season, and this periodic change regulates the rhythm of local organisms.

From the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century, Britain, the United States, France and other countries successively went to the area to teach planting, refining and marketing techniques, and purchased opium poppy, so it has a history of opium poppy cultivation.

Moreover, the political situation here in Chiang Mai is extremely chaotic and complicated, and in 1947, Ping. General Chun Ha Wan staged a military coup d'Γ©tat, Luang. Ngapoi Paiwanse was appointed Prime Minister. But they tasted the bitter fruits of the military coup the following year, and after about a year in power, the government was overthrown by a military coup led by Phibun, and in 1951 Phibun staged another coup d'Γ©tat.

In addition, Chairman Chiang also had a "revival force" here, which defeated the Burmese army many times under the leadership of Li Guohui and Lieutenant General Li Mi, and by 1951, it had captured four county towns on the border of Yunnan.

In this chaotic situation, no one cares what the local population wants to grow, so the amount of opium poppy cultivation here is still very large, and the first opium poppy production was formed around 50 years ago*. (To be continued m.) (To be continued)
