At about six o'clock in the evening of the same day, Chen Mingxiang and Ding Mocun came to Zhou Gaohai's house for dinner.

Zhou Gaohai made a pot of good tea and waited for them in the living room, while Yang Shuhui was preparing dinner in the kitchen.

"Minister, I didn't prepare any gifts for you this time in Jinling, this is a little bit of my heart, and I ask the minister to smile at it." After Chen Mingxiang sat down, he exchanged a few words, and then put the box on the coffee table and opened it.

He knew that Zhou Gaohai was a person who had seen a lot of money, so he made a heavy bet this time, with a "heart" of 200,000 US dollars, which is really not much to resist in such an era.

"Brother, we are not outsiders, don't be so polite in the future, if there is anything to say, what can be done must be done for you." Zhou Gaohai said with a smile.

He was more than a "smile", smiling very happily, his facial expression looked very satisfied, Yang Shuhui, who came to the living room from the kitchen, couldn't hide the greed in his eyes at all.

At this stage, there are really not many people who can come up with so many dollars, let alone use them for gifts.

Zhou Gaohai also knew that Chen Mingxiang took out this staggering amount of bribes, and there must be something important to deal with him, but it was within a reasonable range.

No one will give 200,000 dollars as a gift in vain, the rules of the game are like this, you give money and I will do things, and it is incidental in terms of favors, where does the favor come from without a transaction?

"The meal is ready, you can talk while eating, the food will not taste good when it is cold." Yang Shuhui quickly put away the box, which was equivalent to millions of middle storage coupons, and it was the first time she had received so many bribes.

There is a table of authentic Su dishes in the restaurant, such as what honey sauce fire recipe, stewed crab roe lion's head, squirrel osmanthus fish, chicken soup boiled dried shreds, salted duck and other famous dishes, the wine drunk is 30 years old rice wine, this treatment few people can enjoy.

Zhou Gaohai never makes a loss-making business, even if Wang Jingwei comes to eat, it is just this kind of specification, and Chen Mingxiang is because of his generosity, which won him a different view, how much can a table of banquets be worth?

"Minister, this time I spent a lot of working capital in order to relocate three textile factories, which led to some problems in the smuggling transaction of Huatong Trading Company, and I have to ask you for help, I hope to borrow some fiat currency from the Bank of China to alleviate the current predicament." Chen Mingxiang said.

This is the most tenable reason, and there is no fear of the Japanese making things difficult, the Huatong Trading Company traded strategic materials for the Japanese army, and it is much better to borrow legal tender from the Central Reserve Bank than to ask the Japanese army for funds directly, and the "reputation" seems to be better, and the Central Reserve Bank itself has a loan business.

"The Japanese have clear regulations on the legal tender of the Shancheng government recovered by the Central Reserve Bank, and these recovered old coins must be handed over to the Central China Liaison Department of the Japanese Xingya Institute for processing, which will be used to purchase strategic materials from the Chiang Tong District, and will also be used to arbitrage foreign exchange."

"Of course, as the president of the China Reserve Bank, I also have the power to make some changes, there is not much problem with lending to you, the key is that there will be no criticism, Huatong Trading Company is a key trade institution of the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army, how much do you want to borrow?" Zhou Gaohai asked.

The bank itself has this business, but Chen Mingxiang smashed a large amount of dollars, and the amount of the loan must not be too low, converted into the China Reserve Bank, which is equivalent to four million, and the actual currency value is greater than five million!

"The tung oil in the Jiangtong area has risen to 900 yuan per quintal, the pig bristles have exceeded 6,000 yuan per quintal, and the tungsten ore has reached more than 5,000 yuan per ton, and I need 40 million legal dollars to complete the task on the Japanese side." Chen Mingxiang said.

Ding Mocun was dumbfounded when he heard it, a loan costs 40 million legal currency, Huatong Trading Company is really generous, but there is no need to send so many dollars if the loan is too small.

Chen Mingxiang's opening was 40 million, but Zhou Gaohai couldn't do this, and he had to add a part of the number on this basis to reflect his value.

"I can't get involved in the procurement of materials, that is to commit taboos, in this way, your textile factory is also an important link, the first batch of I will lend you 40 million legal currency, in the name of Huatong Trading Company's textile factory construction support funds, the time limit for repayment is ten years."

"At the end of the year, I will give you a loan of 20 million fiat currency, and the time limit can be put to fifteen years, and you will repay it with the same amount of China Reserve Coupons, without calculating interest." Zhou Gaohai said.

What ten or fifteen years, I don't know what the situation will be by then!

According to the market situation of the China Reserve Bank, it is bound to fall all the way, and Zhou Gaohai, as the president of the China Reserve Bank, understands this truth better than anyone else, and the condition he gives is the same amount, that is, the loan of 60 million legal currency and the return of 60 million China Reserve bonds.

Ten years later, the Central Reserve Bonds still don't know what the depreciation will become, Chen Mingxiang must have made a lot of money, but neither of them realized that in another two years, maybe the money in the wallet will be able to repay the loan, because at that time, the 10,000 yuan face value of the Central Reserve Bonds were printed.

"Thanks to the minister's support for my work, I will ask people to come to the branch in Jinling tomorrow to go through the procedures, in order not to delay the military supply of the Japanese army, I have to buy a batch of supplies in cash from the Chiang Tong District first, so I am anxious to use the money." Chen Mingxiang said.

"Don't be so troublesome, wait for you to write a loan application here, as long as the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army and the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Academy have no opinions, and the consultants on the head office side will not have any opinions, I will call the Shanghai branch, and you can let people go through the loan procedures in Shanghai." Zhou Gaohai said.

It sounds like such a large amount of loans seems to be very simple, but if he is a second person, he will not be able to make such a change, and the emperor appointed by the Japanese government in the Central Savings Bank will definitely not agree.

The three textile factories that Chen Mingxiang used to support the smuggling trade and the Shanghai branch of the Japan Textile Association clashed over cotton resources.

The Military Police Command and the Marine Corps Command in Shanghai strongly supported the Huatong Trading Company and sent troops to beat a group of Japanese ronins who had gone to the textile factory to loot supplies.

Although it is still impossible to see the winner or loser, Zhou Gaohai also has a relationship in Japan, and has long known the news that Chen Mingxiang's textile factory is about to stop production, and will cede the cotton resources of Shanghai to Japanese textile enterprises.

As soon as Chen Mingxiang said that he wanted to relocate all the textile factories to Suzhou, he understood what kind of routine it was, Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions were traditional Khmer production areas, and this kid was directly building factories in cotton production areas, which was equivalent to cutting off Japanese textile enterprises, and those Japanese could not say anything else about this.

Preventing Chen Mingxiang's factory from opening is tantamount to blocking the military's procurement of military supplies and annoying the military department, how can businessmen bear it?

The relocation of all the equipment of the textile mill from Shanghai to Suzhou, the relocation of skilled workers to Suzhou, and the construction of three new factories required huge financial support, and the Japanese would certainly not pay for it, so Huatong Trading Company had financial difficulties.

In fact, the situation may not be as tense as Chen Mingxiang said, but he always has to leave a way back for himself, and use the money from the China Savings Bank, which is the most suitable way.
