When he came to Jincheng from Beiping, it was almost noon, and Naohiro Murano originally invited Chen Mingxiang to a Japanese restaurant for dinner, but Chen Mingxiang proposed to go to Dongxinglou Restaurant, and he knew that Chen Mingxiang's purpose was to meet Yoshiko Kawashima.

This veteran agent who has been half-abandoned, since he came into contact with Chen Mingxiang, has been very different from the previous two years, the key is that he has a fixed income in his hands, has the capital to carry out his own social activities, and continues to connect the previous relationship.

"Murano-kun, the glorious period of Yoshiko Kawashima has passed, she doesn't have much value to the empire, but she has been operating in Pingjin and Tianjin for many years, she belongs to the type of land snake, she must have some resources in her hands, plus she is sociable, I may be able to use her in the future."

"With the help of the new policy of the Empire, we will continue to expand the scale of the salt farm, which will infringe on the interests of the Imperial chaebol and the local salt merchants, they must be very dissatisfied with this, and with an old qualified agent like Yoshiko Kawashima watching from the side, they may be able to know some movements in advance." Chen Mingxiang said with a slight smile.

Of course, eating is an excuse to chat, seeing that her financier is coming, Kawashima Yoshiko hurriedly asked the chef of the restaurant to make a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and personally accompanied her, chatting with Chen Mingxiang and Naohiro Murano in the private room, she was responsible for serving tea and pouring water.

Just like Naohiro Murano said, she has now returned to her former luxury life, more than 1,000 tons of salt per month, which can bring her an income of 300,000 United Bank Coupons, plus Chen Mingxiang also has 30,000 United Bank Coupons per month Activity funds, life is very chic.

"Miss Kawashima, I wonder if you are familiar with Kitazawa?" Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

"Kitazawa Ping? He used to be the squad leader of the intelligence squad of the special service agency of the Ministry of the Army stationed in Jincheng, and of course I am very familiar with him, so why did Mr. Chen ask about him? Yoshiko Kawashima said.

"That's right, Lieutenant General Matsui, the head of the Mei Agency, is going to the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army to serve as Chief of the General Staff, and the new head of the agency is Lieutenant General Kaneshiro Shibayama, and Kitazawa Hei Nakasa, the head of the Intelligence Division who is currently at the headquarters of the Ice Castle Secret Service Agency, is the newly appointed intelligence director of the Mei Agency." Chen Mingxiang said.

"Chen Jun's news is really well-informed, I just learned about this matter for two days, and the vast majority of people have not yet received the notice, around the fifteenth, the general headquarters of the dispatch army will be officially announced, and General Chai Shan will take over the work of the Mei organ on the twentieth." Naohiro Murano said with a smile.

"Your Excellency Dazuo said with a smile, I was mixed up in the Jinling government or Central China, and it would be too embarrassing if I didn't even know anything about such important news."

"It is normal for the North China side to know late, and the Mei organ has always been only responsible for the affairs of Central China, and strictly speaking, the North China Political Affairs Committee is substantially independent of the Jinling government." Chen Mingxiang said.

The greatest achievement of the Mei organs was to support the Wang puppet government, but in fact the sphere of influence was limited to central China, and it was not easy to use it in North China, and the puppet North China Political Affairs Committee was supported by the North China Front Command of the Japanese Army.

When the head of the Mei organ was replaced, the base camp would at most report to the North China Front Command, and there was no need to solicit the opinions of the North China Front, and the relationship between the two sides was not very good.

Of course, a general commander of the level of Okamura Ninji must have known it for a long time, and if Naohiro Murano hadn't been born in the gendarmerie system, most of them would not have gotten the news now.

"How to say Kitazawa Ping, his biggest characteristic is that he hides a knife in his smile, he always looks like he has a gentle smile, he treats people very kindly, and he is also very good at pulling relationships, but his criterion for doing things is to doubt everything, and he likes the elimination method the most, as long as there is the slightest doubt, don't want to pass from him."

"Kitazawa Taira's actions have always been hidden underwater, and until the moment he comes out of the water, you don't know what he did at all, and when he's joking with you, he's actually started to set traps, and the biggest difference between him and Kojima Nariko is that he can't be absolutely sure that he can't make a move." Yoshiko Kawashima said.

Chen Mingxiang was very glad that he came to her to understand the situation, these few sentences were very valuable, basically pointing out Bei Zeping's character, suspicious, sophisticated, and insidious, which can be used in the future.

Naohiro Murano still had work in the afternoon, so he didn't stay long, and made an appointment to meet again in the evening, so he returned to the gendarmerie station, leaving only Yoshiko Kawashima and Chen Mingxiang in the room.

"I want all the information of Kitazawa Taira and Shibayama Kaneshiro, the more detailed the better, especially Kitazawa Taira's information, a reward of 10,000 US dollars, but I hope it is worth the money." Chen Mingxiang said very simply.

"Deal, I believe the information I gave, absolutely live up to the 10,000 US dollars, I heard Mr. Chen say to expand the scale of the salt farm, I hope to increase the number of salt smuggled by 1,000 tons per month." Yoshiko Kawashima put forward her own conditions.

"From my point of view, I don't actually mind if you smuggle more salt to me, the more the better, but you remember, you have to stop in moderation, the chaebols and salt merchants in North China, they are very mindful, of course, you can settle them, I also support this matter, there is a great shortage of salt in Central China." Chen Mingxiang said.

On the second day after arriving in Jincheng, the person in charge of the North China Salt Industry Co., Ltd. and the Changlu Salt Administration Bureau in the Tanggu area had a murderous look in their eyes, and looked at Naohiro Murano, the captain of the Jincheng Military Police, and Chen Mingxiang, the boss of the Haiyuan Salt Company, and took away a large piece of salt from the Tanggu salt field.

But the problem is that this time they did not dare to stop it, and the order to draw salt fields came from the Japanese Consulate General in Beiping, Minister Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Shiozawa Kiyonobu, that is, the former head of the North China Liaison Department of the Xingya Academy, and the "reason" was that the garrison in Central China and the Japanese expatriates were short of salt, and they needed to transfer some of them from the Changlu Salt Field.

The North China Liaison Department of the Xingya Yuan alone dares to say a few words, but the Consulate General in Peiping is the territory of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and there is a well-known organization in it, called the Special Higher Police Division, which is specially in charge of the ideological dynamics of the Japanese.

Haiyuan Salt Industry Company does have the authorization of the 13th Army Headquarters of the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army to provide salt for the garrison and Japanese expatriates, and especially refined salt, with a monthly supply of 400,000 catties, that is, a quota of 200 tons, but this salt field can produce at least 10,000 tons per month!

"The Consulate General and the Gendarmerie are harming the interests of the empire, it is a fact that there is a shortage of salt in Central China, but it is not because of the lack of salt, but because there is a problem in transportation, and the salt output of the Lianghuai Salt Farm is not much lower than that of our Changlu Salt Farm!"

"Haiyuan Salt Company, a salt sales agency in central China, is frantically plundering raw salt from the Changlu Salt Farm, which will affect the company's domestic transportation, and who can afford this responsibility at that time?" The head of the North China Salt Joint Stock Company was furious.
