Chapter 691 Let It Burn

The material warehouse caught fire? Did it happen to burn the 700-plus tons of materials of the Osaka Chamber of Commerce?

How could such a coincidence happen in the world? Just after I reported the Osaka Chamber of Commerce's smuggling of supplies, how long has it been since then, and the supplies that served as evidence were burned?

As far as Chen Yang knows, such a coincidence has only occurred in Shantou in China.

Listening to the voice of Koichi Nitta on the other end of the phone, the first thought that came to Chen Yang's mind was whether the Osaka Chamber of Commerce had lost its mind?

They actually thought of such an outrageous action as burning supplies.

This is too damn obvious that they are trying to cover up something.

He thought about all the possible reactions of the Osaka Chamber of Commerce if they knew that the Inspection Group was tracking down the supplies, and he even did not rule out the possibility that they would take action against the Inspection Group.

But I didn't expect that they would make such a stupid move.

"Minister, Minister..." The anxious voice of Koichi Nitta kept coming, bringing Chen Yang back to reality.

"Nitta-kun, it's okay, let it burn." Chen Yang took a breath and said excitedly, "This fire comes at the perfect time."

"Tell the people in the supply warehouse to be careful about their own safety. As for the supplies, burn them all today. Tomorrow I will make them pay ten times the compensation."

After hanging up the phone, Ino Hisayuki looked at the excited Chen Yang and asked curiously, "Minister Chen, what happened? I see you seem very happy? Is there something good?"

Really? Is it that obvious that I'm happy?

Chen Yang quickly restrained his emotions, stood up and said: "Mr. Ino, I may not have time to entertain you today."

"The material warehouse was attacked by a group of masked men, who actually set fire to the warehouse."

"I need to go to the scene now to check the damage to the material warehouse. I'm very sorry."

Huh? The material warehouse was burned down, and you are still so happy? Although he didn't understand, Ino Hisayuki still said, "It's okay, you go ahead and do your work. Since I'm here, I won't leave so soon."

"If there is anything that I need to coordinate regarding supplies, Mantetsu will definitely do its best."

"Coordination," Chen Yang said with a smile as he took the clothes, "There's no need for coordination. This is simply overwhelming wealth."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ino, I have to leave first."

Shanghai South Railway Station, material warehouse.

According to common sense, the first thing to do when a material warehouse catches fire is to organize people to put out the fire.

But today is very unusual...

The people in the material warehouse did not go to put out the fire in a big way, but simply controlled the fire around Warehouse No. 6 to ensure that the surrounding warehouses would not be affected by the fire. Then, a group of people watched the smoke billowing from the warehouse.

Even if soldiers such as patrol security in the warehouse wanted to go up to put out the fire, transport officer Koichi Nitta would stop them from approaching.

And he warned earnestly, "Supplies are only external things, the most important thing is the safety of the imperial soldiers."

"Our mission is to prevent the fire from spreading. As for Warehouse No. 6, it's too dangerous to go in and put out the fire. Let it burn."

These words confused Captain Fukuda, the squad leader of the supply warehouse.

Warehouse No. 6 is full of unregistered supplies, and these things are all sold secretly by the logistics department.

If those big guys knew that someone actually burned their supplies...

"Lieutenant Colonel Nitta, Minister Chen is here." Lieutenant Morishita ran to the warehouse door breathlessly and said to Koichi Nitta who was watching the excitement.

Nitta Koichi quickly dusted himself off and asked, "Where is the minister?"

Morishita Yu pointed in the direction of the sentry post and said, "It's over there at the sentry box."

Koichi Nitta jogged all the way to the sentry box.

Chen Yang stood at the sentry post, looking at the billowing smoke and flames in the distance. The smile on his lips was harder to suppress than AK.

"Minister, why are you here?" Nitta Koichi stepped forward and said, "It's not comfortable in here with all the smoke."

Chen Yang looked at the warehouse in the distance and asked in a gentle voice: "Lieutenant Colonel Nitta, this fire looks difficult to put out. I estimate it will burn for two or three days. By the way, you must warn the soldiers to pay attention to their own safety when controlling the fire."

"Don't be too aggressive, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties."

Nitta Koichi echoed: "It is a blessing for us that the Minister is so considerate of his subordinates. I was just about to report to you because the situation in Warehouse No. 6 is rather complicated."

"We are worried about the danger if we send soldiers in to put out the fire."

"The best thing to do now is to let it burn out on its own,"

Chen Yang nodded repeatedly and said, "Xin Tianjun's suggestion is very pertinent. I also think that forcibly extinguishing the fire is too dangerous. By the way, this fire will not affect the supplies in the surrounding warehouses, right?"

Nitta Koichi patted his chest and said, "Please rest assured, Minister. I have followed your instructions and have ordered people to move all the flammable materials around."

"In addition, in order to prevent the fire from spreading to surrounding warehouses, we have also arranged for people to take effective fire prevention measures around Warehouse No. 6."

"Make sure the fire in Warehouse No. 6 does not spread to the surrounding area and cause greater losses."

"At the same time, I have also arranged patrols at the warehouse to keep a close eye on the fire. If it spreads, they will put it out in time."

Chen Yang nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, very good, Mr. Nitta is very thoughtful."

"The life of every imperial soldier should be more important than these supplies."

"The safety of the soldiers is what we need to consider."

"Looking at the deployment you made, I don't think there is any problem."

"By the way, why was the supply warehouse attacked?"

Nitta Koichi said: "I have already understood the situation."

"In the morning, three trucks carrying supplies arrived at the supply warehouse."

"They had approval slips in their hands, and they were driving a military vehicle. The guards checked and let them go after finding no problems."

"Who would have thought that after these cars entered Warehouse No. 6, a group of masked men jumped out of the supply boxes and took control of the patrol officers in the warehouse without saying a word."

"And they poured gasoline on the supplies in Warehouse No. 6."

"Then he set the warehouse on fire, drove his car through the fence at the gate and fled."

"Thankfully, these people were only targeting supplies and no casualties were caused."

Chen Yang nodded slightly and said, "There were no casualties among the soldiers, only material losses. It seems that their goal is very clear."

"Okay, let Nitta-kun handle the matter here."

"Wait until the fire is completely out and go in to take inventory of the damage."

"By the way, the material warehouse is of great importance to the empire. No outsiders should be allowed to get close to it."

Nitta Koichi saluted and said, "Understood. We won't let irrelevant people get close to the warehouse."

Chen Yang smiled and patted Nitta Koichi on the shoulder: "I'll leave everything here to Nitta-kun."
