Spy Wars: I signed in at the Military Police at the beginning

Two days after the meeting, Zhou Ke and the officers who stayed on duty watched Yamamoto Shichijohachi and others leave the Kanoya base and then completely let themselves go.

He mobilized a large number of naval officers and veterans from the surrounding areas to train the new soldiers who were recruited from the surrounding areas and from Ozawa Jirokuro who had just been transferred to Yingzhou.

Despite this, the shortage of training personnel remained a problem, so Zhou Ke had to turn his attention to the Etajima Naval Academy, which he had never wanted to deal with.

"Inoue-kun, we meet again!"

In the principal's office of the Etajima Naval Academy, Zhou Ke crossed his legs and looked at the school principal, Vice Admiral Inoue Shigemi, who had a blank expression on his face since he entered the room.

The person in front of him is an absolutely difficult character. As one of the active promoters of the war of aggression against China, Inoue Shigemi once personally commanded the fleet to implement a maritime blockade strategy against China.

They cut off China's defense transportation lines, carried out landing warfare in various coastal areas, killed innocent civilians, bombed coastal towns and other crimes that are too numerous to list.

"Shimazu-kun, if you are still here to get someone, then I advise you to go back as soon as possible!"

Inoue Narumi put the two books in his hand on the table and said this. At this moment, he didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations and still had that expressionless look.

"Mr. Inoue, I'm going to take two-thirds of the people away today. I'm not discussing this with you!" Zhou Ke showed a hint of displeasure on his face.

If killing Inoue Chengmei, who had a complicated background, would not affect his next plan, then even if he didn't go through the system, Zhou Ke would have a lot of ways to kill him.

"Oh? Shimazu-kun, I advise you not to do this. The students trained by the school are not the private soldiers of your Shimazu family, but the navy of the empire. What qualifications do you have to take them away just like that?"

Inoue Narumi, who looked a little expressionless, said this with great confidence, but he did have the confidence because his backer was Emperor Showa from the Imperial Palace!

The reason why the current Etajima Naval Academy arranged Inoue Shigemi, a senior veteran, to be the principal is precisely the result of the game between the Emperor, who intended to intervene in the navy, and the Shimazu family.

"What I do has nothing to do with the Shimazu family. Feel free to ask for any conditions your school has. We can talk about financial support or something like that!" Zhou Ke waved his hand and made a gesture as if he was negotiating a business deal.

He really didn't have the patience to waste any more words with this person. If he didn't take advantage of the fact that the navy generals were not in the country to recruit more people, it would be very troublesome to get more people when that group of people came back.

Since Inoue Narumi's argument didn't make sense, Zhou Ke simply used his most sincere killer move: spending money lavishly!

"I'm talking to you about ideology, but you're talking to me about business. How ridiculous! Leave my office before I get completely mad. You're not welcome here!"

Inoue Narumi said this and motioned to her assistant who was also in the office to see the guest out. The latter smiled at Zhou Ke awkwardly but politely and made a gesture of invitation.

"What a pity! I was planning to donate $100,000 to your school for two lectures, hoping to recruit some people. But it seems that Principal Inoue really doesn't intend to give me this opportunity!"

Zhou Ke shook his head and sighed, picked up the high-end-looking black suitcase beside him, stood up and prepared to leave the office.

"Wait! Cash?" Inoue Narumi's voice sounded again, and her tone sounded much softer than before.

"Of course, I always prefer cash transactions. It's light and convenient to spend." Zhou couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he saw that Inoue Chengmei's face was no longer as tense as before.

I am not afraid of the other party taking the money, but I am afraid that I will not be able to do anything if the other party does not take the money. As long as Inoue Chengmei takes the money, there will be more room for operation with the lecture.

"One hundred thousand US dollars, only for two lectures?" Inoue Narumi confirmed again.

Just two lectures can get a sponsorship of 100,000 US dollars, which is really a good thing that can't be found even in a lamp building. Most importantly, Inoue Chengmei didn't think that Zhou could recruit many people through two lectures.

Those fools who, after a few words of encouragement, chose to graduate early and join the army in a fit of anger have long become a rarity in the school. How could they be waiting in large numbers for Zhou Ke to recruit people?

Even though Zhou Ke has the appeal of being the future heir to the Shimazu family, it should not have much effect on the students at the Etajima Naval Academy whose thoughts have been subtly influenced to move closer to the emperor.

If there really are a few people who were fooled by Zhou Ke, Inoue Narumi thinks it may not be a bad thing for these people to leave school.

"That's right, I will only hold two sessions and recruit as many as I can. I will never cause any trouble for you afterwards!"

"If Principal Inoue is really worried, I can sign an agreement with you!"

Zhou Ke said as he put the suitcase on the table and opened it, revealing stacks of banknotes. When he said the second half of the sentence, he deliberately acted as if he was not very willing.

"The agreement must be signed, and the more perfect it is, the better! Shimazu-kun, you seem to be very reluctant!" Inoue Narumi looked at the banknotes and Zhou Ke's expression with some disdain in his heart.

Although the young man in front of him had the same military rank as him, he was not as good at doing things except for being rich. He couldn't even hide his happiness, which somewhat lowered the value of the general's rank.

"Then you draft the document!" Zhou Ke said as he sat back on the sofa and continued to cross his legs.

A moment later, a simple yet comprehensive agreement appeared in Zhou Ke's hand, and a pen was handed over by Inoue Chengmei.

"This agreement is not in my favor! If I recruit too many people, do you mean to ask me to give them back? And this point..."

Zhou Ke did not take the pen from Inoue Chengmei. After carefully scanning the agreement, he began to find fault with it.

"Change what needs to be changed..." Inoue Chengmei readily agreed to Zhou Ke's request and corrected the clauses in the contract that Zhou Ke had picked out in advance.

After a moment, both parties confirmed that everything was correct and signed and stamped their fingerprints on the agreement.

"Shimazu-kun, is this okay now?" After Inoue Narumi gave Zhou Ke's share, he was about to take the money.

"Principal Inoue, one hundred thousand US dollars is not easy to come by! I don't trust your signature and fingerprints!" Zhou Ke reached out and closed the open box.

"You also want the signatures and fingerprints of our other school leaders?" Inoue Narumi asked speechlessly.

"Of course. What if I recruit everyone from your school and then you go back on your word? That will be so troublesome!" Zhou Ke said, pressing down on the suitcase.

"Haha, that's not necessary. Shimazu-kun, your worry is somewhat unnecessary, but I don't mind asking a few more leaders to come over and sign!"

Inoue Narumi did not get angry with Zhou Ke, who he felt was a little unreasonable, and went out with his assistant to get some help. A moment later, an agreement certified by several generals was officially released.
