"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, the Imperial Navy is very supportive of my cause in Shanghai, and I will definitely not drop the chain at such a critical time, and I will do everything I can, no matter how much it costs, to ensure that I can get together 200 tons of tungsten ore within a month." Chen Mingxiang said.

Regarding the request of the Japanese Navy's Kodama organ, Chen Mingxiang happily agreed, and said that he would do his best to serve the Navy.

In fact, if you don't agree, you can't do it, the material control work in the national control area is like a broken sieve, there is air leakage everywhere, and tungsten ore smuggling is very rampant.

Since this requirement must be fulfilled no matter what, it is better to do things beautifully, so as to win the gratitude of the Japanese Navy even more.

"Thank you Chen Jun for your support to the navy, you can rest assured, the imperial navy will not let you suffer, I will give you a price of fifteen hundred dollars for a ton of tungsten ore, which will bring you a lot of profits, I hope to be able to make a few more transactions." Kodama and Shifu were very satisfied with this.

"The difficulty is too high, the navy needs tungsten ore, and the army also needs tungsten ore, which is a strategic material controlled by the Jiang Tong District, and I am also very embarrassed, even this batch of tungsten ore cannot be traded in the Shanghai market, so change it to Zhenjiang!" Chen Mingxiang said.

Tungsten ore is an important rare metal for military industry, and it is also a controlled material under the control of the Shancheng government, with the outbreak of the war, Britain and the United States have increased the import of tungsten ore, and the finance of the Shancheng government has also repaid the loan to the British and American countries with tungsten ore exports.

However, the smuggling phenomenon in the Kuomintang area is very serious, and a large amount of tungsten ore flows into the occupied area, and the reason for this situation is not because of the Military Control Bureau, but because the tungsten ore smuggling of Huatong Trading Company is negligible.

In the tungsten mining area of Hunan Province, the mining cost of one ton of tungsten ore is 4,500 legal currency, but the official purchase price of the Shancheng government is 3,800 legal currency, and one ton will lose 700 legal currency!

In Jiangxi Province, the mining cost of one ton of tungsten ore is 4,900 legal currency, but the official purchase price is 4,300 legal currency, and one ton has to pay 600 legal currency.

The Yamashiro government lowered the purchase price and exported it to Britain and the United States at a high price to repay the loans, so that the tungsten miners could not even eat.

What kind of difference is the cost of less than five yuan per kilogram of tungsten ore, and the price offered by smugglers is 12 to 15 yuan per kilogram?

It's no problem to let the people love the country, but the approach of the Shancheng government is to force the miners who mine tungsten ore to a dead end, and the depreciation of the fiat currency and the soaring prices, so you have to have something to eat, right?

The purchase price of the Kodama agency was too high, exceeding the smuggling price, and the total value of 200 tons of tungsten ore reached 300,000 US dollars, which was at least 6 million in legal currency!

Chen Mingxiang only needs to pay 2 million fiat currency to complete the payment settlement between the company and the bureau headquarters, and he has earned 4 million fiat currency in one stroke!

But for the annual loss of more than 3,000 tons of tungsten ore, it is not too staggering, and at most ten tons and eight tons per quarter can be dealt with.

"The U.S. Navy has done a very good job this time, and I have always thought that Japan is no match for the United States, and now there is a portent."

"I really hope to hear such good news every day, then the victory of the Anti-Japanese War is no longer a long process, compared with such a result, hundreds of tons of tungsten ore do not play a key role, you send a power to the bureau headquarters, and ask to achieve my goal."

"Before the Japanese invaders were driven out of China, my intelligence work in Shanghai still needed the support of the Japanese Navy, and I could not refuse this shameful deal for the time being." After Chen Mingxiang and the other four left, he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.

Of course, he was reluctant to do such a thing, and he also knew the role of tungsten ore, but for the sake of long-term strategic goals, he had to complete the tasks assigned by the Japanese army, which was really uncomfortable.

Fortunately, tungsten ore is not tungsten ore, and the tungsten ore extracted from 200 tons may only be 80 tons or less of tungsten ore powder.

"They gave you a lot of face, and promised to transfer two transport planes at the end of the month to send us to Hangzhou to participate in the establishment ceremony of the border camp in Fujian, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and Anhui provinces, this kind of treatment is very high, I haven't taken a plane yet!" Wang Zhen said with a smile.

After talking about tungsten ore, Chen Mingxiang proposed to Kodama and Shifu by the way, hoping that he would inquire whether the navy's transport plane had arrived in Hangzhou at the end of the month, and he was going to attend the celebration ceremony at the secret service headquarters.

As a result, Kodama and Shifu gave an accurate answer on the spot, there was no problem with the transport plane, and he would arrange for the transport plane to take off to Hangzhou at the end of the month, which was specially provided for Chen Mingxiang.

In order to show their attention to Chen Mingxiang, Kodama and Shifu specially arranged for him and Wang Zhen, as well as his entourage to take a plane, and the small leaders of the Shanghai Experimental Zone took a plane.

At this time, the road was quite difficult to walk, Chen Mingxiang really hated to take a car or a train, and it took seven or eight hours to drive about 200 kilometers.

The road conditions are too bad at the critical time, the bumps are uncomfortable, and the back is sore and back, although the conditions of the transport plane are very bad, but the speed is fast!

The Japanese transport planes were traveling at a speed of more than 400 kilometers per hour, and at such a speed, they could easily arrive in more than 20 minutes without consuming much gasoline.

"What is there to sit on the plane, the swaying is full of noise, it seems that the war environment is constantly changing, I used to want to use Japan's relations to engage in some ocean-going trade from the South Seas, and I have to make arrangements before leaving, so that the ocean-going ships can go around the South Seas as soon as possible, and the scarce goods at the transportation point will come back." Chen Mingxiang said.

"The local grain and important minerals are occupied by the Japanese army, and a ton of grain can't make much money after removing freight, so I don't think it's necessary." Wang Zhen said.

Chen Mingxiang's fleet mainly takes the Yangtze River waterway, and the route is from Shanghai to Shancheng, but there is only one ship that can do ocean transportation, and the current situation is very complicated, and she is also afraid of accidents.

"You stupid girl, it takes half a month for the ship to go back and forth, plus dredging relationships and purchasing goods, it's good to have one trip a month, what kind of grain do I transport?"

"I mainly purchase some local coffee, cane sugar, palm oil, tobacco, medicines and other important materials, as well as fruits and precious specialties, to give gifts to make relations, but also imported, thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the gift is light and affectionate!" Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

A telegram excited Boss Dai for a long time, and the Japanese Navy suffered a great defeat in the battle between Midway and the US Navy, losing four aircraft carriers, one heavy cruiser, and more than 300 aircraft, which was good news for the Yamashiro government.

Although a victory cannot turn the tide of the war in the Pacific, it also means that the Japanese Navy has suffered a defeat, and perhaps in the future, there will be more and more such good news!

Boss Dai also understands very well in his heart that the comparison of the war potential of the United States and Japan is not a grade, the United States loses four aircraft carriers, maybe it can be built in a month, Japan loses four, it is possible to replenish in four months, and the gap between industrial manufacturing capacity and raw material reserves is too big.
