"I don't need you to remind me of this matter, I already have a distribution plan for the 4,000 tons of rice and 6,000 tons of coarse grain sold to me by the Qingxiang Committee, and the movements here cannot be hidden from the Japanese army, so I am going to transport 2,000 tons of rice to Shanghai City as military rations for the military police headquarters and the Marine Corps headquarters, which has obtained the protection of the military, and the remaining 2,000 tons will be temporarily stored in the warehouse at the 16 Pu wharf."

"The 6,000 tons of coarse grain must not go through the grain department of the city government, and then it will reach the hands of those profiteers in the blink of an eye, but I will suggest that the city government pay for the purchase, and then I will distribute it, so that everyone can get the benefits, and I plan to use half of it as public grain, and half directly to the camp in Zhabei as relief."

"The situation in Shanghai is too miserable, because of the lack of food, it cannot be said that there is hunger everywhere, but people are dying every day, the price of rice is too high, ordinary people can't afford it at all, if it is not alleviated, there will be big problems in Shanghai." Chen Mingxiang said with a frown.

Even if the grain is transported to Shanghai, it will not be able to solve the problem fundamentally, and the Shanghai market, which has a population of 4 million, has to consume at least 1,000 tons of grain every day to barely sustain life, and 6,000 tons of coarse grain can only temporarily relieve the urgent needs of the citizens in the urban area.

The Japanese pseudo-implementation of the Shanghai market is the grain rationing system, according to the standard is three liters of rice per week, after the formal implementation of the rationing system, once a week, one liter of rice each time, from the implementation to the present, each person can only receive 0.7 liters per week, that is, a sum of one per day, steamed rice is not to think about it, at most is to boil some porridge, so that it is strange not to starve to death!

Zhou Haiwen was silent, he knew that the people in the base area were suffering, but he also knew the situation in Shanghai, and he would not agree to take the rations of Shanghai to make up for the food gap in the base area.

"Mingxiang, can you privately sell a batch of cheap coarse grain to the underground party organization in Shanghai? At present, their living environment is very difficult, they do not have much organizational funds, and their meager income cannot afford to buy black market grain at all. Zhou Haiwen said.

With the help of Huatong Trading Company's channels and connections, he made a lot of money by doing business privately, but in addition to the necessary expenses and costs, his profits became various materials.

The base area now lacks everything, such as medicines, cotton cloth, hardware tools, matches, kerosene, paper, ink and dyes, as well as seamless steel pipes, sulfur, electronic parts, etc., these are all urgently needed materials, the former is for life, the latter is for war.

"Don't worry about it, just take care of your own affairs, there is also contact with me over there, and when you need food, you will naturally open your mouth with me, and I am really a little worried about your immature words and deeds and doing underground work."

"Although we are classmates and good friends, I have to warn you, now the intelligence team of the Mei agency is staring at my stubble, you have a long mind when you do things, don't be grabbed by the tail, you must tell me in advance about the movement of bulk materials, if something goes wrong, beware of me and you turn your face!" Chen Mingxiang said sternly.

Zhou Haiwen blinked, he didn't dare to say a word, his classmate was full of words, and he would definitely be able to do it, besides, the work he was responsible for and the Shanghai material procurement team could not have a direct contact, which was also the discipline of the organization, and it was obviously a violation of the law to say this kind of thing.

But what makes him feel strange is that Chen Mingxiang seems to know the Tao more clearly than him, could it be that he has been mixed in the Japanese puppet secret service for a long time, and he has no teacher?

However, Chen Mingxiang's words still made Zhou Haiwen vigilant, the underground trading channels he now mastered, but they are related to the needs of the two anti-Japanese base areas in Soviet Province, and there must be no problems.

From the beginning of Kojima Chengzi to the current Beizeping, the underground party organizations in Shanghai have all transmitted information to him, and the reason is that in order to better grasp the situation, he relied on Chen Mingxiang's protection to complete the tasks assigned by the organization.

If the target of smuggling is the Kuomintang region, the Mei organ has no tricks at all, this is a tacit matter for the Japanese army, but if it is detected that the prohibited materials are flowing into the anti-Japanese base area, Chen Mingxiang will have to go around without food, and the Shancheng government and the underground party and the Japanese army are two completely different attitudes.

"You can rest assured, this material transportation line I built with my own hands has been very hidden, although the company staff knows that I am doing secret transactions with which companies in the national control area, but even if the Japanese know, I am smuggling at most, and the gendarmerie and police stations in various places will also come forward to protect them, and they all take my dividends, which is a means learned from you."

"The companies that do business with me in the Guotong Region also don't know my details, they give money when they receive my goods, or provide replacement goods, and they never ask about the subsequent flow of goods. In the past two years, I have been trading with regular customers, and I have not added a new partner. ”

"Since the Japanese are conducting targeted investigations, then I will strictly control all aspects of the material exchange, and report the situation to the superior leaders as soon as possible, remind our personnel to pay attention to confidentiality, and the company that is responsible for the transshipment of goods in Suzhou and Hangzhou is a company that has nothing to do with me on the surface, and these are all our comrades, and they can be trusted." Zhou Haiwen said.

"You have learned a lot of things along with it, but I want to remind you, such a solemn warning to you is not without reason, Bei Zeping is very difficult to deal with, I can't even grasp his actions, I can find out that your company is doing smuggling business, and I will soon be able to find out your transshipment company in Jiangsu and Shanghai, if you are careless, it will bring great losses."

"As long as anything is done, it will leave traces and will be discovered, and the smuggling to the Kuomintang in May and June can be done, but the act of transporting materials to the base areas should not be moved for now, and we will talk about it at the end of July, and what you and your comrades will do is to carefully observe who is watching or contacting you, and then find out the details of the other party." Chen Mingxiang said.

"This is absolutely not possible, my secret material procurement and transportation line is an important channel for the two base areas in the Soviet Province, and a second backup channel has not been established until now, that is to say, it is irreplaceable for the time being, I think you can understand this meaning."

"I really don't have the ability like you, there are such conditions to get to now, the scale of the company is not very large, and the maximum monthly transaction volume is only a few million, which limits the number of materials purchased, and now it is impossible to meet the needs of the base area, let alone reserve materials in advance."

"If this lifeline is not activated for such a long time, it will be even worse for the daily life in the base area, especially under the blockade of the mountain city government, there is a shortage of medicines, salt, cloth, food and daily necessities, no matter how great the danger is, I must persist in completing the task, this is my duty!" Zhou Haiwen said very resolutely.
