Chapter 656: The Problem of Redemption

With the continuous depreciation of fiat currency in the national control area, the funds of the Military Control Bureau have become beyond their means, and the profits brought by smuggling alone cannot maintain the operation of this huge spy agency.

As a matter of fact, when the Central Reserve Bonds of the Wang puppet government had just been issued into the financial market, the Military Control Bureau had such an idea, but at that time, the methods of the Central Reserve Bank were not drastic, and fiat currency and China Reserve Bills coexisted, and fiat currency occupied the mainstream in the currency market.

Therefore, the Military Command Bureau only organized technicians to study the central reserve bonds, and has not yet taken formal action, and it is not so simple to crack the printing secret of a currency.

When Wang's puppet government announced that it would ban the circulation of fiat currency, Dai Li quickly asked the head of the Shancheng government to seek assistance from the US government, hoping to use the advanced printing technology of the United States to crack the secrets of the central reserve bonds of the Wang puppet government and the North China puppet regime's Union Bank bills.

After communicating with the U.S. side, Minister Song of the United States received relevant help, and a mint in the United States carefully identified the two currencies of the China Reserve Bill and the Federal Bank Bill, and the experts believed that there was no problem at all and that it could be prevented in large quantities.

Not only that, when the Ministry of Finance was preparing to carry out a major revision of the legal tender, it also bought the most advanced money printing machine from the United States for the Military Command Bureau, and was ready to print counterfeit banknotes frantically, attack the other side's currency and financial market, and disrupt the other side's economy.

"The counterfeit banknote technical group organized by our Military Command Bureau has not yet cracked the secret of printing the Central Reserve Bills and the Union Bank Bills, and the shortage of funds in the bureau headquarters has not been alleviated in a short period of time."

"However, in the provincial stations and regional groups in the occupied areas, there is now a big problem, fiat currency can only be used in the national control area, there are many kinds of banknotes in the occupied area, and the exchange is a troublesome matter. Mao Renfeng said.

The key point is that what North China needs is the Union Bank Bills, what Central China and South China need is the Central Reserve Bills, and the puppet Manchukuo outside the Guanxi also has its own banknotes, but the Military Control Bureau only gets the legal tender of the National Control Region.

"Chunfeng is currently only related to Central China, there is no problem in exchanging the Central Reserve Bonds, and the difficulties in Central China and South China can be solved, but in North China and outside the Guan, it is a little difficult to do, and his business has not yet extended to these regions." Boss Dai also felt a headache.

The provincial stations and local groups of the Military Command Bureau are accustomed to reaching out to the headquarters to ask for money, and as for Chen Mingxiang making money on his own and being able to support the office expenses of the headquarters, that is not to be thought of.

The current situation is that the Military Command Bureau has money, but it only has fiat currency, which cannot be spent at all in North China and Northeast China.

"Bureau, don't bother the two masters, such a problem should be solved by Chunfeng, he can completely open the business of Huatong Trading Company to North China and outside the customs, just rely on his means of pulling the relationship through the back door, I believe that the task can be completed."

"In North China and outside the Guan, the intelligence stations and teams of our Military Command Bureau go directly to the office of the Huatong Trading Company to get money, and our headquarters will write off the money in the payment, and we must not delay the work of the brothers below, and when the counterfeit banknotes from the bureau headquarters are printed, the problem will not exist." Mao Renfeng said.

In the past, there were no Huatong Trading Companies in North China and Northeast China, so why were the agents of the Military Command Bureau able to get funds?

That was because the financial resources of the Japanese government at that time were not as tight as they are now, and the pace of the war was gradual and gradual, and it was pushed step by step to Central China and South China.

There are many businessmen in the affiliated households and downlines of the Military Command Bureau, who can provide funds for the local Military Command Bureau, and legal tender is also used in Central China and South China.

However, with the formulation of the Japanese army's southward expansion strategy leading to the outbreak of the Pacific War, Japan was severely blockaded by Western countries, and too many battlefields were opened, and the government's finances fell into trouble in an instant.

"It's okay, I can't find a more suitable candidate than him, the key is that he has this foundation, and the skills to pull the relationship through the back door are perfect, which must not be difficult for him."

"In Central China and South China, there are resources from the bureau headquarters to support him, and when he arrives in North China and Northeast China, he will rely on his own ability, I want to see if he has cultivated at home!" Dai Li said with a smile.

This is half true and half false, and it is an undeniable fact that at the beginning of the Huatong Trading Company, the huge resources of the Military Control Bureau were indeed able to solve Chen Mingxiang's big problem.

However, with the development of the company, with the support of the Japanese military police headquarters in Shanghai, coupled with a strong network and good reputation, Chen Mingxiang is now using resources to support the funds of the bureau headquarters.

But since Shangfeng said so, since Boss Dai said so, that's the case, it has to be like this, and the subordinates must have the consciousness of the subordinates.

"Director Mao asked me to open up business in North China and Northeast China as soon as possible, provide local banknotes for the intelligence organizations of the Military Control Bureau in these two regions, and then I will deduct this amount from the smuggling trade in the Guotong Region and Shanghai."

"It seems that there is trouble in the exchange of fiat currency and counterfeit banknotes in various places, and the God of Wealth in the seventh place is about to hit the wall, and they actually push this kind of on my head." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile after reading the message.

"The funds of our Military Command Bureau are all applied to the headquarters by the provincial stations in various places, and then through the transportation group of the Seventh Division, the money is sent to the provincial stations and handed over to the accountants, and then forwarded to the teams in various places."

"In other words, they don't have the characteristics of a direct station, you have strong commercial profitability, the funds are directly deducted from the payment, you don't need to go through the seventh review, and you don't need to sign and approve the boss, and a handwritten bill at the end of the month is written off."

"This request is also in line with your intentions, aren't you going to visit Qingqi Qingyin in Beiping in the near future? It's just that it's a bit troublesome outside the border, and you don't seem to have any hard relationship. Wang Zhen said.

"This is not a problem, the key is that I can't leave Shanghai, and the general environment there does not allow it, and the Japanese army in North China nominally has to obey the jurisdiction of the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army, but the Kwantung Army is another force, and it looks very hard at its own territory."

"The commercial activities outside the customs are mainly to provide funds for the local organizations of the Military Command Bureau, and I plan to open a few shops in some important cities to sell silk and tea from our Suzhou and Hangzhou continents, and the business will be directly managed by the Beiping branch." Chen Mingxiang shook his head and said.
