The ability of the underground party really can't be underestimated!

This is Chen Mingxiang's heartfelt feelings, he just arrived in Bozhou to find a larger hotel to stay, chatted with the shopkeeper, and said that he was a businessman who came to buy grain, cotton and tobacco in Shanghai, and within ten minutes, someone came to the door to discuss business.

"The old Zheng and Xiao Lu of Changhua Commerce and Trade said that you are coming to Bozhou, I will be the east tonight, please have a meal, let's talk while eating." The man who called himself Lao Liu said.

Chen Mingxiang is very clear, Changhua Trading is a short company that does business between the underground party and Huatong Trading Company, Lao Zheng is probably talking about Zheng Tonghui, and Xiao Lu is naturally his fiancée Lu Kunyu.

It must have been the underground party in Shanghai that spread the news to the base area, and then entered Luzhou, and they were targeted, and they calculated their own routes and stared at the traffic arteries in advance.

With the premise of the introduction of the innkeeper, no one will doubt his whereabouts, and he is not afraid of inspection, he has a pass issued by the Luzhou Gendarmerie, and if necessary, a certificate from the special high class of the Shanghai Gendarmerie Headquarters.

Stewed pigeon, braised civet, stewed soft-shelled turtle with ham and a pot, Lao Liu is full of oil!

He was indeed a member of the underground party, lurking in Bozhou to collect intelligence on the Japanese army, but due to lack of funds, it was the first time to eat such a meal, and Chen Mingxiang insisted on treating himself.

"The head of our anti-Japanese base area is very grateful to Mr. Chen for the medical supplies he gave and saved the lives of a large number of soldiers and the masses, and also thanks Mr. Chen for his help to the comrades of the underground front in Shanghai. Lao Liu said.

"I'm just an ordinary person who is trying to live in the occupied area, and I'm already satisfied to be able to support my family, and I know that if I can, it's okay to help my compatriots, and my strength is limited, so I don't dare to be such a high praise." Chen Mingxiang said quietly.

Lao Liu feels a headache for such a person, people say it very clearly, there is no intention to get closer to the underground party, where you can help, you will help, if it is something related to your own safety, you don't have to open your mouth!

"Since you have come to Bozhou, the chief specially invited you to be a guest in the base area, and we must let you see with your own eyes where these medical supplies sent to us are used."

"The base area mobilized the masses and did everything possible to gather a batch of pig bristles, which is the current shortage of goods, and it is also the best excuse, and at the same time, it is also to repay the debts of the comrades in Shanghai." Lao Liu said.

"My sudden entry into the base area may cause some people to speculate, and the matter will reach the ears of the Japanese, and the size will also be a trouble." Chen Mingxiang shook his head.

The underground party is willing to give materials in exchange for hard currency, which is acceptable to Chen Mingxiang, this thing is very profitable, and he can give a higher price.

"I've taken it into account in terms of security, the Japanese soldiers and traitors in Bozhou don't know anything about you, it's the shopkeeper of this inn who introduced you to me, and I took you to the workshop to receive the goods, this reason is impeccable."

"I've been in Bozhou for a few years, and there are a lot of people who know me, even if it spreads to the Japanese, they can't find your problem, at most they have been deceived, but this car is real." Lao Liu said.

Yes, maybe he was too careful, but the agent's instinct made him try to think about the worst things as much as possible, and to count defeat before winning.

What Lao Liu said is also reasonable, no one in Bozhou knows him, and only the Luzhou gendarmerie knows the news of his arrival, at most the Bozhou gendarmerie receives the news, but it will not pay too much attention.

Whether it is good to understand the anti-Japanese base areas, I used to just hear from the teacher that these communist * * party troops will be the biggest enemy of the Shancheng government and the sworn enemy of the Military Command Bureau, and they have not really understood it!

"Comrade Lu Kunyu, I just received a telegram from the base area, your fiancé arrived at the base area this morning, visited the field hospital and the army station, and was received by the chief, and left after lunch." Zheng Tonghui said with a smile.

"It's great, this time he personally went to the base area for a field trip, and his heart will definitely be touched, which is very beneficial to our work." Lu Kunyu seems to feel that a like-minded couple has been born.

"It's not that simple, Chen Mingxiang only promised to facilitate the procurement and transportation of materials for the underground party in Shanghai at the right opportunity, and also promised to provide us with hard currency to exchange materials in the base area, and didn't say anything else, but the meaning of the superior leaders, we have achieved our goal, and other problems will be slowly solved later." Zheng Tonghui said.

The head of the boundary is the junction of Anhui Province and Henan Province, a small town belonging to Taihe County, with convenient transportation and between the mountain city army and the Japanese defense line, forming a special smuggling market.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, Jieshou was just a small market in the countryside, but in the 27th year of the Republic of China, the Shancheng government blew up the embankment of the Yellow River, and Taihe County flooded, and a large number of victims poured into Jieshou, and suddenly became a commercial center.

Both the Yamashiro government and the Japanese army adopted an economic blockade policy, and this environment also stimulated the rapid expansion of smuggling. Due to the convenient transportation, Jieshou has formed a smuggling center in these two provinces.

At present, the head of the world, its prosperity is actually higher than that of Bengbu, the flow of people is dense and the customers are like clouds, in addition to shops, hotels and restaurants, there are also theaters, smoke houses and other entertainment venues.

The Minhua Company, which was controlled by the Japanese army's Kodama Agency, the Lingnan Company controlled by the Mei Agency, and the Tongji Company under Boss Du's Boss, also had branches in Jieshou, which shows the particularity of this place.

"Bureau, according to the report of the Fuyang Intelligence Group of the Luzhou Station of the Military Command Bureau, the signboard of the first acquisition point of the Luzhou Acquisition Station of Huatong Trading Company has been hung up, and the buyer has rented the house in a high-profile manner, and the spring breeze must have reached the head of the world." Pan Qiwu came to Dai Li's office.

Before leaving, Chen Mingxiang had already reported the general itinerary of Anhui Province to the bureau headquarters, which meant that the goods in the bureau could be transported to Shanghai by the route of Anhui Province.

Therefore, Dai Li ordered the Luzhou Station, the Huatong Trading Company, a partner of the headquarters of the Military Command Bureau, to set up points in Luzhou, Bozhou, Bengbu, Jieshou, Lu'an, Suzhou, and Anqing in the near future to purchase materials, and the Luzhou Station must effectively ensure the safety of the purchasing station.

In order to raise funds, the bureau headquarters chose Huatong Trading Company as the agent of the Shanghai market, which is a matter of great importance and cannot be slackened.

After receiving the boss's telegram order, the Luzhou station almost wanted to treat this so-called Luzhou acquisition station as a living ancestor, and sent special personnel to keep an eye on it in several places.
