"Fu Xiao'an doesn't look at what time this is, he has to hold a mass party for the Double Tenth Festival, he doesn't think it's a big deal to see the excitement, in case the military commander destroys it, I will have to carry the black pot." Li Shiqun said complainingly.

Double Tenth Festival is a festival of the Shancheng government, but after the establishment of the Wang puppet government, everything had to be copied from the Shancheng government's set of practices to show its "orthodox" qualifications.

Fu Xiao'an, the mayor of the puppet Shanghai Special City Government, decided to make it more grand and create a momentum for the city government, and this plan was appreciated by the Japanese.

But for Li Shiqun and Police Chief Lu Ying, it is a head-scratching trouble, such a big event, security is a worrying and thankless job, tired of being a pig and a dog, no one appreciates it.

"I don't think the director has to worry about this, the military and the central government also have to take into account the impact, and the sabotage will harm the lives of the people, and the international public opinion will definitely strongly criticize the Shancheng government, they can't afford this serious consequence."

"If this is really done, there will be no place for them in the concession, and no one will want to leave dangerous elements around, and for the sake of long-term consideration, the more honest they will be, and let the brothers protect the important members of the government, there will not be much problem." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

"You're right, I'm confused by this matter, I didn't expect this, by the way, has the inspection team received a notice from the military police headquarters to lift the material inspection at the pass?" Li Shiqun asked.

"It's not clear, the gendarmerie command didn't speak, and I didn't dare to ask, it is said that Japanese companies praised the behavior of the gendarmerie command, thinking that this is the fulfillment of their duties, and hope to continue to increase efforts to stop the export of contraband, which is simply nonsense!" Chen Mingxiang shook his head and said.

Kinoshita Eichi, the old devil, is indeed insidious, the new official took office with three fires, and the first fire burned very successfully, not only obtained a large amount of income, but also gave a satisfactory explanation to Japanese enterprises, he was a conscientious military police commander.

"This matter will not last long, I heard from the Mei organ that the Japanese Army Command and the Navy Command are very dissatisfied with the actions of the Military Police Command, because while reducing the output of contraband, they also lack the resources to exchange materials with Chiang Tong."

"You also know that both sides are in need of scarce materials, and the reason why smuggling exists is not only driven by interests, but also from a strategic military point of view, in other words, it is a kind of rule of tacit consent." Li Shiqun said.

Large-scale smuggling originated from military and government officials in Chiang's districts, or in collusion with merchants, and this group traded not in cash, but in exchange for goods.

Those who directly transport goods to the Shanghai market for money belong to small-scale smuggling, which is basically some traders or local forces, and occupies a relatively small share of smuggling.

On a large scale, tung oil, rosin, timber, bamboo, grain, pig bristles, tea, and other materials were smuggled into Shanghai, which were exchanged for Western medicines, rubber tires, hardware, machine tools, communication equipment, cane sugar, cotton yarn, and other materials from Shanghai, and then transported to the Kuomintang to be sold for huge profits.

Although such an act indirectly increased the enemy's strength, on the other hand, the national control area must also be imported, since it was tightly blocked by the Japanese army, both the army and the common people are in a very bad situation.

The tires of the army's cars are broken and cannot be replaced, the arsenal lacks machine tools and raw materials, and the communications department lacks electronic components.

The impact on the common people is even greater, the supply of finished cloth is insufficient, clothes and shoes are a problem, it is difficult to buy even a screwdriver on the market, and prices are soaring, this phenomenon can only be solved through smuggling.

As for the Japanese army, domestic resources are extremely scarce, a large number of field troops cannot be replenished with strategic materials, each place has its own characteristics, and not everything in the occupied areas is available.

More importantly, in the future, the Japanese army will not only face a battlefield in China, but also more battles to be fought, and the competition is for world hegemony.

A large part of the materials exchanged by the smugglers in Shanghai from the Kuomintang were to be sold to the Japanese army, or in other words, behind these people was the support of the Japanese military, and they were only selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, and they could not be said to be cooperating with the Japanese to the outside world.

As a result, the materials from Shanghai could not flow out of the Shanghai market and the materials from the Kuomintang could not be exchanged, and the Japanese military's plan was greatly restricted.

"This pool is too muddy, we all know the crux of the matter, but Japanese companies are always crooked in the back, constantly stabbing the military police headquarters, and General Kinoshita is also very jealous, and he does not dare to make an order to lift the blockade."

"In particular, several large textile enterprises and tobacco enterprises have been complaining to the country every day, which has made the head of the Gangcun section anxious and responding to the Japanese government's inquiries all day long.

"These businessmen, who relied on the Japanese army to wage war to obtain huge wealth, once they touched their interests, they would rise up en masse to attack them, and there were even rumors that the inspection team would be abolished and the material inspection should be handed over to the material control committee set up by them to manage." Chen Mingxiang said.

"They are wishful thinking, the Japanese army does need their support to start a war, but it does not revolve around them, only cares about making money for themselves, but ignores the current situation of the army, it is strange not to be unlucky, rest assured, soon this situation will change." Li Shiqun said with a sneer.

It is not only the Huatong Trading Company that is hated by Japanese enterprises, but also the Southeast Trading Company, which wantonly smuggles cotton yarn and finished cloth, as well as cigarettes and other materials into the Kuomintang area, and has become a thorn in the side of Japanese businessmen, and they cannot get rid of it as soon as possible.

Of course, Li Shiqun knew the significance of the establishment of the inspection team, but this was not an organization that the military police headquarters came up with in his head, and it contained multiple layers of meaning.

The main premise is that considering the policy orientation, that is, a matter of attitude, the two sides are hostile at the moment, and to put it more clearly, smuggling is the enemy of the two governments!

With the existence of the inspection team, it means that things can be done, but they cannot make a noise, and if they maintain the current state, the Japanese military can turn a blind eye and pretend that it is not aware of this matter.

If the matter is made public, the transaction cannot be done, just like the way Huatong Trading Company does things, and it is never said that the background is a reason for the military police headquarters.

The Japanese army is not afraid to bear the infamy of smuggling, and for the violent organs of the state, businessmen are just like that, but the problem is that the mountain city government is afraid!
