308 [Mr. Spy who loves stock trading]
Historically, in 1931, Major Catherwell, military attache of the French Embassy in China, wrote a report letter to the French Ministry of Defense, the content of which is excerpted below:
"Japan has 500,000 expatriates in China, mainly in Manchuria, Shandong and major coastal cities along the river. However www.biquge.info although the Japanese have a large amount of local information, they are not very good at synthesizing and drawing conclusions about it...... Japan's intelligence business in China is very developed, and almost every Japanese in China is a Japanese spy agent. ”
Almost every Japanese in China is a Japanese spy agent. This sentence came from the mouth of the French military attache in China, and it is still somewhat convincing.
Compared with China, Japan's intelligence agencies in the United States are more tragic, or in other words, they simply cannot afford to set up professional intelligence agencies in the United States.
Yasuo Nagayama is a 26-year-old graduate of Kyoto Imperial University, majoring in sociology and psychology.
He was born into a peasant family in the region, and although basic education was universally compulsory in Japan at this time, it was still difficult for the son of a farmer to go to higher education. Yasuo Nagayama also relied on the financial support of his uncle in the United States to complete his college courses.
After graduating, Yasuo Nagayama's dream was to pursue a career in politics. Who knew that he had only been a civil servant for half a year, and before he had time to be promoted, he was assigned by the military department to work as a spy in the United States. His mission is to investigate a mysterious organization called Iphone, but the only clue is the "California Apple Orchard".
Hell Mission!
Early in the morning, Yasuo Nagayama wakes up early, waits for breakfast and then goes to his next target, the apple orchards in California, which are too many to investigate.
"John, are you going out again today?" Uncle Hachiro Nagayama asked.
Yasuo Nagayama bowed and said, "Yes, I'm going to travel all over California and do a detailed agricultural survey before I can help my uncle develop the farm." ”
Nagayama Hachiro said a little impatiently: "John, it's been almost a year since you came to the United States, so you can't be idle like this." A man should be responsible, so come with me today to turn over the soil and farm the land! ”
"Uncle, the investigation is also very important." Yasuo Nagayama said.
"Yaga!"
Hachiro Nagayama had always insisted on speaking English, but now he used Japanese to speak foul language, and he said angrily: "I paid for your college and helped you immigrate to the United States, but you are so unmotivated!" You have to farm with me today. ”
"Hello!" Yasuo Nagayama did not dare to refuse, otherwise he would have been bombed away from the United States.
Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has seen two waves of emigration.
The first wave of immigration was between 1885 and 1907, and it was more of a Japanese laborer to the United States than an immigration. Like the Chinese workers in the United States, they are all low-level poor people in China, who rely on hard work to earn hard-earned money, have no sense of belonging to the United States, and want to return to their hometown to live a good life after saving enough money.
The Japanese government wants to increase overseas income, and it also actively encourages its poor people to work in the United States, regardless of the fact that these poor people are worse off than black slaves in the United States.
As more and more Japanese laborers went to the United States, the residents of the United States were dissatisfied, and anti-Japanese sentiment in various states intensified. Finally, in 1908, the United States began to restrict the entry of Japanese laborers, and successively promulgated the "Alien Land Act" to restrict Japanese ownership of land in the United States.
For Mao to restrict the Japanese from owning land?
Because Japanese laborers were discriminated against and oppressed in the towns, they had to go to the countryside and grow crops to make a living. The Japanese are as diligent as the Chinese, and the money earned from part-time work is reluctant to spend, so they save up to buy land.
Gradually, the Japanese purchased more and more land in the United States. In Idawa, for example, in 1913, the Japanese cultivated 8,000 hectares of sugar beet, a third of the state, and they also cultivated more than 10,000 hectares of other crops.
Faced with such a situation, can the Yankees not be blushing?
The second wave of Japanese immigration to the United States took place under this circumstance. Most of them immigrated to the United States through the connections of their fellow villagers and relatives, and these people gradually acquired land and property in the United States, and although they were discriminated against, they regarded themselves as Americans and were no longer willing to return to Japan to suffer.
It was not until five years ago that U.S. President Coolidge enacted a bill prohibiting aliens who were not eligible for naturalization from entering the United States as immigrants, and the wave of Japanese immigration to the United States finally ended, and a large number of immigrants began to move to South America.
Yasuo Nagayama came to the United States to work as a spy, and he must have a long-term valid legal identity. It was because he had an uncle who was a farmer in California that he was selected by the Japanese War Department and sent here as an intelligence spy.
If he angers his uncle, he can let Yasuo Nagayama get out of the way with a word, and he can't continue to live in the United States without the approval of his immediate family.
As a result, Yasuo Nagayama, a top student at Kyoto Imperial University and entrusted with a heavy task by the military ministry, wore a straw hat and carried a hoe to work the ground.
"Dididi!"
Just as Yasuo Nagayama was sweating, a small car suddenly drove in the distance.
The window opened, and a white American in a suit asked, "Sir, who is the farmer here?" ”
"It's my uncle, I'll take you there!" Yasuo Nagayama found an excuse to be lazy and immediately threw down his hoe to lead the way.
Hachiro Nagayama was watering the corn, and when he saw his nephew bringing someone over, he immediately scolded, "Bastard, is this how you work?" Get back to your post! ”
Yasuo Nagayama hurriedly explained: "Uncle, this gentleman is looking for you. ”
Facing the white American, Hachiro Nagayama immediately put on another face, he nodded and asked, "Hello sir, my name is Tom, do you have any advice?" ”
The white American opened his briefcase, took out a thick stack of securities, and said, "Hello, Dear Mr. Farmer." I'm Smith, a salesman at Western Williams, are you interested in buying stocks? ”
"Stocks?" Hachiro Nagayama asked, "Is that what everyone in the town is talking about, that thing that can make money quickly?" ”
Smith rummaged through the stock securities in his hand and said, "Yes, this is the golden age of the U.S. stock market, as long as you buy stocks, you can get double the profits." Mr. Farmer, take the Raul electric light in my hand, for example, the stock price was only $1.8 last month, and now it has risen to $2.7, which is more than half of the terrifying profit. If you spent $100 on it last month, you already have $150. In addition, I have the stock of Western Soap here, which is also going up very well......"
The salesman Balabala said a lot, and Hachiro Nagayama said impatiently, "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in stocks." ”
Smith persistently said: "I still have Jose Tobacco, Coca-Cola here......"
"Needless to say, I don't know about stocks, I can only farm." Hachiro Nagayama was resolute.
After several rejections in a row, Smith finally gave up on the potential customer and planned to drive to the next farm.
How crazy has the U.S. stock market been today?
You take a taxi, and the taxi driver can't help but advise you on which stock to buy. You shine your shoes on the side of the road, and the shoe-shining kids will introduce you to the hot stocks of the day. You buy breakfast at the bakery, and the clerk will discuss the recent stock market with you.
Even in some factories, large blackboards are placed in each workshop, and special staff members write the latest information on the exchange with chalk every hour, so that workers can speculate on stocks while working.
On some ranches, cowboys receive information on ore radios and then use loudspeakers to inform others about the latest market conditions.
Securities dealers buy all kinds of junk stocks from the secondary market, and then hire stock salesmen to go to the streets, towns, and farms to publicize the benefits of stock speculation over and over again, and fool unsuspecting retail investors into buying their stocks.
In order to attract women to the stock market, many securities companies have set up "ladies-only rooms" and even equipped with simple free beauty salons, and female investors now account for 20% of the total investment in the U.S. stock market.
Not long ago, when Hoover came to power as president, he confidently said: "The U.S. stock market will be brilliant for at least another ten years!" ”
It is not for nothing that Mr. President is so confident.
The stock prices of several major industrial companies in the United States have risen by as much as 10 to 15 percent a day since he took office, which is a terrifying rate.
Many company employees and factory workers have turned their main business into stock speculation. Anyway, as long as you buy stocks, even if you buy them with your eyes closed, you will make money no matter which stock you buy.
When friends get together and chat, they don't ask whether they lose money or make money in stock trading, but how much they earn, and people who earn too little will be ridiculed for being too poor.
It's a pity that the Japanese farmer in front of him is too small, and his mind is full of digging soil and farming, and he is not protected by the salesman at all.
The shaft is not enough and conspiracy!
Smith put the stock securities back in his briefcase and was about to go to the next farm, but Yasuo Nagayama, a high-achieving spy, caught up: "Sir, please wait a minute. ”
"What's wrong?" Smith asked, looking back.
Yasuo Nagayama said, "I bought those stocks in your hand!" ”
"Do you have any money?" Smith scoffed.
"I have, please wait." Yasuo Nagayama hurriedly ran back to his room and came out with half of his spy funds.
Watching Yasuo Nagayama quickly count the money, Smith showed a jealous look in his eyes, thinking: These yellow-skinned monkeys who only earn but don't spend are really rich, and the government should drive them all out of the United States.
For Americans, all Asians look the same. They can't tell the Chinese, the Japanese, the Vietnamese, the Asians are damn moths anyway, they rob the jobs of the whites, they are synonymous with thieves, scoundrels, liars.
However, he said that after Yasuo Nagayama threw the money into the stock market, he earned more than $600 that month. Excited, he invested all his money in the stock market, and by early October, he had become a small billionaire with a net worth of more than 10,000 dollars.
Mr. Yasuo Nagayama, a top student at Kyoto Imperial University and a spy with high hopes from the War Department, seems to have forgotten his mission. Even when his superiors sent him new clues and asked him to investigate a man named Jobs, Yasuo Nagayama ignored it and concentrated on his dream of making a fortune in the United States.
Stocks kill people!
