Chapter 565: The scale has been upgraded
Chen Gongbo's abacus is very good, with the help of the Shanghai market is about to carry out the work of clearing the township, it is no problem for his own women and cheap brother-in-law to make money.
But he was scheming, and the reason why he made such an arrangement was to let Chen Mingxiang take the lead, and Mo Guokang and Mo Yade just sat at home and shared dividends.
The advantage of this is that Mo Guokang's sister and brother have fallen behind, and he, the mayor, does not have to be blamed, the relationship between the two is not a secret in Shanghai, and the appearance is too ugly, and it will be discussed.
But he didn't expect that Mo Guokang's greed was out of his calculations, and he actually directly asked Chen Mingxiang for power, which inevitably caused some misunderstandings, and Chen Mingxiang thought that he was doing this.
"Chen Mingxiang is not an outsider, he is your henchman, if you just have to say something, will he dare not come forward to deal with it?"
"For so long, I've been asking you to arrange a position for Moyad, but you just don't do it, you can't be an official, you can always make some money, right?" Mo Guokang said as if he was very aggrieved.
"Chen Mingxiang has such a tough backer behind him, and he is only the deputy director of the Social Bureau at the moment, you want me to promote Mo Yade to the deputy director of the Finance Bureau, is he qualified enough?"
"Don't think that I am covering the sky in the Shanghai market, and if I don't follow the rules of the game, I will be set aside, do you think those officials of the Finance Bureau will have no one behind them?" Chen Gongbo said.
As soon as I returned to the Bank of China, I saw that the No. 6 building of the reception office had actually strengthened its vigilance, and more than a dozen people who looked like bodyguards were hanging outside the door, and they were still carrying guns.
Chen Mingxiang was a little strange, who came to the Bank of China to do other business, and the gendarmes didn't confiscate the guns?
"Brother Mingxiang, come in and sit, the minister is here!" Ding Mocun walked out of the courtyard.
Chen Mingxiang stood at the door and took a look, it turned out that Zhou Gaohai, a big traitor, was sitting under the tree drinking tea, and opposite was Major General Kawamoto, the intelligence minister of the 13th Army Headquarters.
"Why is the minister in the mood to come to me?" Chen Mingxiang asked.
"It's not because of Wu Kaixian's matter, the minister and he are also acquaintances, so naturally they don't want the Japanese to execute him, this time I came to Shanghai, I also want to transfer Wu Kaixian to Suzhou, Li Shiqun was born in the Central Union, and he doesn't want to make too much trouble with the party department in the Shancheng government, so he can be regarded as a gang to rescue him."
"The minister has a good personal relationship with Major General Kawamoto, and this time I want to do this through the relationship between the 13th Army Command, after all, the Military Police Command is also under the management of the 13th Army Command." Ding Mocun said.
This is the status quo of the Shancheng government and Wang's puppet government during the Anti-Japanese War, Wu Kaixian, an important member of the Central Party Department, had an accident, such as Zhou Gaohai, Ding Mocun, Li Shiqun, Wang Manyun and others, who went out to rescue them, but theoretically, it was a hostile relationship, and it was strange that Wang Jingwei's group could succeed!
"Brother Mingxiang, you have already met General Kawamoto, we are good friends, if you have anything in the future, you can ask General Kawamoto for help." The favor sent by Zhou Gaohai is not small.
"Chen Jun, I really didn't expect your relationship with Zhou Jun to be so good, if you tell this matter earlier, we will definitely deepen our relationship." Major General Kawamoto said with a smile.
With Chen Mingxiang's instructions, Wang Zhen came over in person, replaced the tea set and tea leaves, and made tea for the four of them by hand.
The Japanese like the tea ceremony the most, how about Wang Zhen's ability, Major General Kawamoto is very powerful, from washing the pot, putting tea, brewing, sealing the pot, dividing the cup, returning the pot, dividing the pot, serving tea, smelling the fragrance, tasting a set of tea, each process tests the skills of the tea maker.
"Brother Mingxiang, this young lady's temperament is elegant and luxurious, she is not from an ordinary family, right?" Zhou Gaohai said.
At this moment, Wang Zhen, wearing a blue cheongsam, is gentle, demure, graceful, and luxurious, with a well-informed and reasonable ladylike demeanor, plus she herself belongs to a quiet beauty, so she naturally won the appreciation of Zhou Gaohai, Ding Mocun and Major General Kawamoto.
"The minister smiled, she is my beloved wife Wang Zhen, Pu Liuzhizi will not come out to meet people easily, her family used to be a scholarly family in Jinling, and the history is quite long." Chen Mingxiang said.
"The elder brother is too modest, in the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people. I didn't expect my younger brother and sister to be the descendants of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the real lady, I was disrespectful! Zhou Gaohai said with a smile.
Wang Zhen's family may not be the descendants of the Wang family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Chen Mingxiang has never asked about this, but Zhou Gaohai has such a background, and he will not refute it.
"It turned out to be the descendants of the Chinese aristocracy, no wonder the temperament is unique, and the craftsmanship of this tea ceremony is considered superior even if it is placed in the empire." Major General Kawamoto's eyes were full of appreciation.
Zhou Gaohai told him that Wang Zhen's ancestors were the prime ministers of the Chinese Dynasty more than 1,600 years ago, and his status was equivalent to the Tokugawa family, and he immediately won his respect, and the status of the nobles in Japan was quite high.
Chen Mingxiang looked at Zhou Gaohai with admiration, look at others, this is the standard politician's face, he may be just a primary school student in front of him.
"I originally wanted to call you to eat together, but I heard that you had a meeting in the city government, and even had lunch with Dean Chen, did the city government make any big moves?" Ding Mocun asked.
"There is nothing too urgent, one thing is to cooperate with the imperial army's material control of Shanghai, and the other thing is to prepare in advance for the Shanghai city to carry out the work of clearing the township, I have to be responsible for preparing materials for the blockade line, I am busy for a while, General Kawamoto should know." Chen Mingxiang said.
"Chen Jun is right, the preparatory combat order for the base camp has been issued, but Commander-in-Chief Shunroku Habata of the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army and Commander Shigeru Sawada of the Thirteenth Army Headquarters have a different new view of the combat objectives."
"They believe that it is easy to repair the airport facilities by destroying them, so the scale of this operation must be expanded, and the goal must be changed to completely destroy the transportation, shipping and local economy of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line, and plunder local materials, so as to achieve the purpose of the military headquarters to feed the war with war." Major General Kawamoto said.
Chen Mingxiang's heart sank violently, which means that in this battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi, the Japanese army did not plan to quickly occupy and destroy, and then evacuate in a short time, but to scrape the ground and burn and plunder, and completely sweep the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line!
originally planned to entertain Zhou Gaohai and Ding Mocun, but the two said that they had an appointment in the evening, and when they sent him out, Chen Mingxiang knew the specific reason.
"You're not kidding, are you? A ruffian hooligan who runs a casino and nightclub like Pan San Province can also be the president of the Shanghai branch of the Savings Bank? Could it be that he dedicated his wife to the minister? Chen Mingxiang felt a little unbelievable.
