Chapter 514: The Gold Robbery I

There is a single room outside Chen Mingxiang's office, and there is a special secretary who is responsible for receiving guests, not everyone can consult him casually, and the part inside is divided into three rooms.

Entering is a business living room, with imported Western-style sofas and coffee tables, a large crystal chandelier on top, and a thick carpet on the floor.

The coffee table is decorated with cigar boxes, cigar cutters, lighters and ashtrays, and flowers, and in one corner of the wall is a wine cabinet and a cigarette cabinet with goblets and a dozen bottles of red wine, and in the other corner is a large phonograph.

To the left of the living room is the office space, with curtains drawn in the window, a desk and chairs, a filing cabinet, a safe, and a radio, and a pair of rattan chairs opposite the desk, with a bonsai and a few pots of flowers in the corner.

To the right of the living room is a tea room, with a carved tea table and several carved round stools, on which are placed purple sand tea sets and tea barrels, and the walls are hung with landscape paintings and calligraphy.

"Wouldn't that be my best chance today? The Flower of Empire took the initiative to come to the door, should I say something? Chen Mingxiang reached out and took the document bag and threw it aside, reaching out and hugging her waist.

"Mingxiang, I think you only have a hard mouth, even if I dare to send it to the door, do you dare to ask for it?" Nanzao Yunzi gently kissed Chen Mingxiang's forehead and reached out to push him away.

She didn't see it at all, she opened the wine cabinet and took out the red wine, poured a glass for each of them, and then sat down on the sofa.

Both of them knew what was going on with each other, Chen Mingxiang knew that Nanzao Yunzi, the flower of the empire, was full of thorns, and it was not good to prick himself with blood, Nanzao Yunzi knew that Chen Mingxiang was not something she could control, and they were just playing games with each other.

"Baling and Yancheng in Hunan Province, Qiaocheng in Anhui Province, and Yuzhang in Jiangxi Province, these places are thousands of miles apart, and I am a little confused." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

"If anyone can see it, I'm not qualified to be an agent of the Empire, just say if I can deliver it!" Nanzao Yunzi said.

Hunan Province has always been a piece of the Japanese army's heart, and the second Battle of Tanzhou launched some time ago did not take advantage, which must be the point, and Yancheng is not far from the territory of Gui Province.

The city of Anhui Province, which is very close to Henan Province, is almost the junction of the two provinces, and the northwest can enter Henan Province, not to mention Yuzhang, the core city of Jiangxi Province.

These places are transit points, and there is no doubt about the fact that the Japanese agents must have arrived at these places and then to their hidden destinations.

"Since Miss Yunzi has needs, I have to do it if I can't do it, you are a woman who pleases herself, then I am the one who dies for my confidant!" Chen Mingxiang said.

Nanzao Yunzi got up and walked to the gramophone, took out a record from the cabinet, and after a few seconds, a pleasant symphony sounded in the office.

A man and a woman dancing to the sound of music, no matter how you look at it, it is romantic and sweet, but what is in your heart, only you know.

"Jingle bell!"

Chen Mingxiang hurriedly pushed away the overly enthusiastic Nanzao Yunzi, and felt a little strange in his heart, this Japanese female spy is going to play with fire today!

"Your Excellency Gang Qi, I'm Chen Mingxiang, what do you say? The ironclad car from Jianghaiguan to Zhengjin Bank to transport gold was robbed? It's broad daylight, who dares to have such the guts to rob the ironclad car escorted by the imperial army? Chen Mingxiang was dumbfounded.

Oka Qishengnan called angrily and told him the shocking news that the ironclad car sent by Zhengjin Bank to Jianghaiguan to transport gold was actually robbed.

Jianghaiguan was the most important customs in the Republic of China, and before the British tore their faces, there was still a part of the British control of the revenue, but with the occupation of the public concession, the Japanese expelled the British from Jianghaiguan and completely occupied Jianghaiguan.

Normally, Jianghaiguan and Japan's Zhengjin Bank are both on the Bund, and the distance is very close, so it was not troublesome to drive in a straight line.

However, this batch of gold belongs to the Jianghai Customs, which is equivalent to the property of Huaxia, and it is nominally under the control of the Ministry of Finance of the Jinling government, and Japan wants to transport the gold, which is a typical theft, which will arouse the condemnation of public opinion and cause adverse effects.

The psychology of Japan is very strange, and while killing and plundering in the occupied areas, it is also hiding its ears and stealing bells, so that it has to cover up its banditry behavior.

Loading gold into the ironclad car at the main gate of the Jianghai Customs in broad daylight is not something that can be done, it is too conspicuous, and it will inevitably be seen by others, causing unnecessary trouble.

This time, the Japanese loaded a batch of gold into an ironclad car at the back door of Jianghaiguan, and then smuggled it out of Jianghaiguan, thinking that they had done a very clever job.

However, in this way, the transportation route will be changed, from going straight to going around in a circle, from Zhongshan * East all the way to Si * Chuan Road, to the north and then into Han* Kou Road, and then to the east to the Zhengjin Bank on the outer beach.

When the ironclad car set off from Jianghaiguan, there was a call to the Zhengjin Bank, but even if the road conditions were not good, it could arrive in half an hour at most, who would have thought that before the arrival of an hour, the Zhengjin Bank knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly called the military police headquarters, the Marine Corps headquarters and the police station.

"This matter belongs to the top secret of the empire, you don't know, this time to transport gold, in order to worry that public opinion is unfavorable to the empire, there is no imperial army escort, only one driver."

"Zhengjin Bank and the Gendarmerie Command also took into account that no one dared to commit any crime against the ironclad car in broad daylight, but they were all wrong, that is, someone took advantage of this mistake and snatched the ironclad car, and they haven't found it yet!" Katsuo Okaki said.

An ironclad car full of gold, driven by only one driver, not even a gendarme, paralyzed, I didn't know in advance, if I knew, I would have robbed it!

You deserve it, let you brutes who have lost their conscience rob the wealth of China!

But the question at the moment is, who is so kind? Could it be that the military commanders did it?

Chen Mingxiang didn't dare to slack off, the incident happened in the concession area, he was about to become an "important" official of the Ministry of Industry Bureau, dragged Nanzao Yunzi out of the office, and hurried to the Ministry of Industry Bureau.

Along the way, sirens whistled, military police, police and marines everywhere, motorcycles, trucks, cars, and armored vehicles were dispatched one after another, for the sake of gold, the Japanese did not care about the influence of public opinion, it must be gold is the most important!

"Miss Yunzi also came, and the police who participated in the search just now reported that they found the ironclad car transporting gold, and the driver and the car were all by the river near the Waibaidu Bridge."

"However, the soldiers of our empire have been killed, and the gold has been robbed, which is simply a shame for the empire!" Oka Qisheng said violently, and slapped the coffee table in front of him.

The Bund is a palm-sized place, so many people don't have much effort to find it, and the key is that there are many witnesses who saw the ironclad car.
