Chapter 758: Waiting for the Opportunity Three
The so-called no secrecy, in fact, this expression is not completely correct, from the Phoenix Kailuan Coal Mine to Jincheng to transport coal, from Jincheng to make briquettes to Shanghai, and then through direct sales and wholesale, and then to the homes of the people in Shanghai, this is a complete civil fuel industry chain.
The six briquette factories involved in this industrial chain in Jincheng do not know the specific situation until now, and the task given by the Jincheng gendarmerie is to process briquettes on behalf of you, give you a sufficient amount of coal, and you produce qualified briquettes according to the proportion, and then settle them once a week, as for where the briquettes will be sent after they are transported, then you can't ask.
But no matter whether it is a secret that Kailuan Coal Mine transports coal outward, it is not a secret that there are mountains of briquettes in Jincheng Port, as long as you are careful to investigate, it is definitely not a difficult matter.
Chen Mingxiang judged that it would take about 10 days from the time the coal merchants in Shanghai became suspicious to the time they began their investigation and then they got the results.
Why does it take so long?
This matter belongs to the affairs of the Xingya Academy, and the Kailuan Coal Mine only sends the coal to Jincheng Port by train according to the specified amount every month, and it is not known that it is the Yuchang Coal Company in Shanghai that receives it.
The receipt and settlement of goods are all handled internally through the Central China Liaison Department and the North China Liaison Department, and the task is issued by the Cabinet Directive, and not even a single explanation is given, because this bad idea was conceived by Major General Shiozawa Kiyonobu Shiozawa, the Minister of Liaison Affairs!
The coal merchants in Shanghai could not get the situation in a timely manner because of the lack of smooth information and the inconvenient contact with them, and only by sending people to Jincheng Port to investigate on the spot could they find out what was going on.
On September 26, the cotton yarn brought by the fleet from Yingkou Port outside the Guanxi arrived in Zhenjiang, and with the assistance of Li Shiqun and the local Japanese army, a large number of vehicles were mobilized to transport 35,000 pieces of cotton yarn to Suzhou, and the remaining 10,000 pieces were directly transported to Shancheng.
At the same time, the Military Command Bureau was also transporting a large amount of strategic materials to Soviet Province through the provincial stations in Hunan Province, Jiangxi Province, Sichuan Province, and Guizhou Province, forming the largest smuggling network during the war.
"Is there still no movement over there in the mountain city?" Nariko Kojima asked.
"Everything is very calm, I contact the latent team every twelve hours, according to their report, there is no change in the Military Control Bureau, and there is no situation around, judging from all kinds of signs, the other party does not know the existence of this latent team, and our temptation may have failed." The operator said.
Her own team leader has to ask more than ten times a day, but every time she gets the same answer, which also deeply hits her confidence, twenty days have passed, and it can be basically concluded that this mission has failed.
"Team leader, do you want to order the latent team to take the initiative to expose? That Chen Mingxiang was covered in mouth, and he couldn't explain it clearly. Du Haiguang said.
"No, what I want is the truth, if I do this, it will become a frame-up of Chen Mingxiang, not my intention. Shancheng is the political and economic core city of the Chiang Tong District, where the old nest of the Military Command Bureau is located, and every latent group is extremely precious, and our secret service agencies cannot afford to lose it! ”
"If I dare to do this, once I am discovered, Lieutenant General Matsui will inevitably order me to judge myself, and besides, the military police headquarters has already expected such a thing, and has issued a warning early that I can't do it!"
"The point is, for more than 20 days, Chen Mingxiang has not taken any measures, we have lost the best opportunity, and now that something has happened, it will not have much impact on him, how about you monitor Wang Zhen's situation?" Nariko Kojima said with a frown.
"She is the same as before, there is nothing abnormal, there are not many times she comes out, every time she goes to the store, she takes a car, and there are bodyguards to follow, it is not easy to start, and forcing her to act may alarm the patrolling gendarmes and police, then we will be in trouble." Du Haiguang said.
"How are you going to execute Project Two?" Nariko Kojima asked.
"Wang Zhen occasionally goes out shopping, and often goes to a café in the French Concession to drink coffee, if he wants to do it, it must be in the afternoon, and he has to do it in the café." Du Haiguang said.
"The observation is very detailed, so where are you going to lock her up after you succeed?" Nariko Kojima said with satisfaction.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place, several detention points are in Hongkou District, which is a bit inappropriate, Chen Mingxiang has a very good relationship with the Marine Corps Command, which is not conducive to concealment."
"I set up a secret detention point near the Yangpu Mosque, which is very close to the military police headquarters, but I think that because it is so close, the focus of the search is not in this area." Du Haiguang said.
Yoshiko Kawashima attaches great importance to the cooperation with Chen Mingxiang, and his purpose in arranging such a place is, of course, to let the matter be resolved as quickly as possible, to ensure that Wang Zhen will not be harmed, and after the military police get the news, they can surround this place in a few minutes.
But where does Kojima Nariko know the doorway here, she appreciates this arrangement very much, and after being in Huaxia for a long time, she also understands the truth that it is dark under the light.
Now that there are sufficient raw materials, Chen Mingxiang's three textile factories have immediately entered the stage of high-speed operation, not only workshops, warehouses and canteens are also busy 24 hours a day.
The warehouse had to send out raw materials and receive cloth, the canteen had to make four meals, and the vegetables and pork bought were transported to the factory by truckloads, which made the nearby residents look red-eyed, and there was meat to eat during the war years, what kind of living standard is this?
With the official document of the provincial government, the Suzhou city government provided sufficient electricity and water for the textile mills, which was a priority, the police station and patrols patrolled the perimeter, and even the gendarmes had sentry posts, which produced important materials for the Kwantung Army headquarters.
The enthusiasm of the workers is naturally very high, although the workload is very large, but the labor and remuneration are matched, and the machinery is currently the most advanced, and the output of cotton cloth is naturally not a problem.
Mentioned many times the faucet muslin, speaking of this is a cotton standard, originally this kind of cloth is Japan's Yufeng yarn factory in Shanghai, the main product developed, widely used in underwear and quilts, etc., because of the excellent texture, so the price is relatively high.
And Chen Mingxiang's textile factory is grey cloth supplied to the Kwantung Army Headquarters, as for how to dye or print, that is the other party's business.
"Minister, how do you have time to come to the factory, go, come to my office and sit down, the workshop is too noisy." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
The textile factory is open day and night, and he is not idle as the boss, he has to inspect the factory every day, although he does not understand the technical aspects, but he knows how to do a good job in logistics.
The canteen is required to put more oil and more meat in the dishes, but more than 10,000 people eat, can this be a small number? With his on-site command, the canteen dared to let go and buy it and let it go.
