Chapter 150: A New Identity
In fact, you can't blame Lu Kunyu and Zhou Haiwen for not thinking that these two people are not professional agents after all, and they don't have that kind of professional sensitivity.
It is not to blame the leadership of the underground party for not thinking about himself, perhaps people really think that he is a traitor who sees money, and his identity is only known to Boss Dai and Pan Qiwu.
"Isn't it smooth for us to work together? Gave a fee of forty or even fifty percent higher than the market price, the transportation fee was tripled, and there was not a penny in arrears, fully considering your safety, and the delivery locations were all controlled by the mountain city army, there was nothing missing? Zheng Tonghui asked curiously.
After receiving a call from Lu Kunyu, Zheng Tonghui went to Chen Mingxiang's house at night, and it was normal for him to visit his subordinates' homes as the editor-in-chief.
"First, the density of your transportation of goods is too large, it is six times a month, and it is not a large amount of goods, which is abnormal, Huatong Trading Company does not do small business."
"Second, profit alone will not work, this cannot be a reason to protect me, the Japanese need more conditions."
"Third, your receiving location does not exist, as long as someone investigates, the matter will be exposed, and the danger factor is too great." Chen Mingxiang said.
Zhou Haiwen and Lu Kunyu immediately understood that the underground party did not have so much money to purchase bulk materials, and each transportation was one or two trucks, and secondly, the delivery location did not exist, and the address left for Huatong Trading Company was a fake address, and the real address was handed over by Zhou Haiwen to the transport driver.
"Mr. Chen has helped us a lot, since there is an omission, then how do you say this matter should be solved, we will fully cooperate with you." Zheng Tonghui said.
Although Lu Kunyu mobilized Zhou Haiwen as a helper, the matter of Huatong Trading Company still had to be decided by Chen Mingxiang, and the Japanese did not pay attention to Zhou Haiwen at all, without Chen Mingxiang's phone, the military police headquarters would not give a pass.
"I need you to increase the amount of purchases, and the funds are not enough for me to advance, but you have to buy materials for Huatong Trading Company locally, such as cotton, tung oil, grain, tea, etc., in exchange, the price is absolutely fair."
"You must set up a pick-up location that can be investigated at any time, and you can no longer use a fake address, and I will also open a purchase station in the area you designate, and send someone to preside over the purchase of materials, which will increase the safety factor." Chen Mingxiang said.
"Mr. Chen is really thoughtful, admire, you are like a mature and experienced underground worker." Zheng Tonghui said.
This is definitely his sincere words, turning into an underground worker, he has been in the Shanghai Stock Exchange for five years, and his experience should be much stronger than Chen Mingxiang, but he just didn't expect these omissions and remedial measures. On the other hand, he would like to thank Chen Mingxiang, which is tantamount to making up for the loopholes in the transportation line and better serving the base areas.
"Editor-in-Chief Zheng, don't forget, my work unit is the secret service headquarters of the Special Service Committee, and I deal with the Military Police Headquarters and the Special High School, you don't have such an environment, plus it is the nature of purchasing materials, it is normal not to be so sensitive, and the environment makes people mature." Chen Mingxiang said.
After the work of the inspection team became "regular," the money in the safe in the office of the team headquarters swelled up like a balloon, and more than 600,000 legal dollars were earned in more than 20 days.
This shows that the "contraband" goods that have passed the customs must reach at least more than 10 million in order to have such output, not counting those normal goods.
Chen Mingxiang was not a professional businessman, so he could not make an accurate judgment, and as the situation in Shanghai gradually stabilized and traffic resumed, the concession actually produced a deformed prosperous economy.
"Section chief, this is the income of the inspection team in April, and I have at least stopped more than seventy percent of the contraband from flowing out, otherwise this number will be much more." Chen Mingxiang came to the special high class with 300,000 fiat currency.
"I am very relieved that you are doing things, the scale is very well grasped, it is in line with the interests of the empire, and it will not allow a large number of strategic materials to flow into the Chiang Tong area, and it will not cut off the financial route of some people, a prosperous Shanghai market is what the empire needs."
"You came just in time, there is something I need to discuss with you, this is a high secret of the imperial army, in case the news leaks, even I can't protect you, this is also the empire's trust in you."
"In order to destroy the economy of Chiang's command area and end this war as soon as possible, the Imperial War Ministry decided to launch a financial war to promote the rapid depreciation of the fiat currency of the Shancheng government.
"There are five million counterfeit banknotes that arrived in Shanghai in advance, and the meaning of the Mei organ is that you and Huatong Trading Company are responsible for flowing into Jiangtong District, what is your opinion?" Gangmura Shaozo said.
The Japanese devils are finally going to carry out a despicable and shameless counterfeit money war, five million counterfeit fiat currency banknotes, which must be used for experiments, and it is not so easy to print banknotes from other countries, that is, these counterfeit banknotes have not been imitated successfully.
"The subordinate individuals are willing to serve the empire, but Huatong Trading Company is responsible for obtaining strategic materials for the empire and obtaining economic information for the special high class, once a large number of counterfeit banknotes are used, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among customers, and the consequences will be catastrophic, which is equivalent to destroying this company, it is a pity, I, as the intelligence officer of the special high school, ask the section chief to think again." Chen Mingxiang said.
This company is a golden hen that can lay eggs, and the military police headquarters and the special high school can get three or four hundred thousand legal dollars every month, and Chen Mingxiang bets that the Japanese are not willing to lose this company.
"Very good, you are able to perform the duties of the intelligence officer of the special high school and maintain the intelligence network of the special high class, I am very pleased, to tell you the truth, the request of the Mei agency was rejected by me, they want to fight a financial war, and they also need the intelligence of Huatong Trading Company."
"I've decided to let you join the Sugi Agency, and you'll meet with me with the heads Okada Nakasa and Seisei Sakata to provide the necessary help for this plan." Gangmura Shaozo said.
"Section chief, after all, the fiat currency is the currency of the Shancheng government, if you want to imitate it, it must be very difficult, I doubt that these counterfeit money, in the end, have they met the requirements of circulation, in case the imitation fails, then it is necessary to startle the snake, so that the Shancheng government is vigilant." Chen Mingxiang said.
The meaning of this sentence is that he wants to find out the bottom of it, but he put on a posture of thinking about the Japanese, I support this financial war, but the printing agency of the Ministry of War did not understand the technology of fiat currency, and made a bunch of waste paper, and it was also troubled by the international community, and the Japanese government was also embarrassed, right?
"You're right, the empire hasn't mastered the secrets of fiat currency yet, although these counterfeit coins have been processed and are still full of mistakes and omissions in the eyes of connoisseurs, but for the common people, they can already be confused, these are a few counterfeit coins, you take them back and study them." Gangmura Shaozo said.
