Yangon, Nanyang United University.

Professor Zhu Kezhen was in his office and roared loudly at Reuters reporter Avril who came to interview him: "Bureaucrats, this is a group of bureaucrats, scum, this is the scum of the nation, I am ashamed to have such compatriots!" On the occasion of this national disaster, what they think about is not how to resist the Japanese invasion and save the country, but only think about making money, and even do not hesitate to make it for this! ”

Avril's pretty face turned a little pale, and she said hurriedly: "Professor Zhu, are you saying that the drought in the southwest is fake news?" ”

"Yes, it's outright fake news." Professor Zhu said excitedly, "I have never published such news" It's just that when I returned to Yangon from the Hukang River Valley, I found that all the major newspapers were promoting the news of the imminent drought in southwest China, which shocked me and made me extremely indignant. ”

Avril's face became more and more bloodless, and she couldn't help but be anxious, because her uncle had also borrowed $500,000 from the Nanyang Bank and bought more than 100 tons of rice from India, and was now hiring a freighter to transport it to Burma. Fraud, this is a financial fraud of Chiguoguo, and it is an act of the government and the government!

Avril thought indignantly in her heart, if it was the British government or the United States, it would never do this, this has obviously exceeded the bottom line of business ethics, but also broke the rules, in the Western world, it is illegal to do so, whether it is the president of the United States or the prime minister of the United Kingdom, once it is found that the manipulation of financial fraud, it is ironclad to step down. However, what made Avril feel even more sad was that this matter was probably manipulated by Yue Weihan, and Avril at this moment was no different from many girls whose idols collapsed in later generations, and she only felt that the whole world was playing with her, and asked with difficulty: "Professor Zhu, are you saying that this fraud was manipulated by General Yue?" ”

"No, no, no, I didn't say that." Professor Zhu showed a slightly nervous look, and waved his hand again and again, "I think, this should be someone who instigated General Yue, General Yue is a soldier, fighting is his strength, he shouldn't understand the financial market and speculation, I think he was mostly used by people with ulterior motives." ”

"Isn't that the same?" Avril said slightly angrily, "Anyway, he knows. ”

Seeing Avril's angry appearance, Professor Zhu couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, but he was quickly relieved.

When this countermeasure was decided, Yue Weihan had already foreseen that the reputations of him and Professor Zhu Kezhen would definitely be damaged, and Mr. Rong Desheng would be even more infamous for bringing disaster to the country and the people, but the three of them were very calm, as long as they could save the 20,000 compatriots of the motherland from danger, what was the infamy of carrying it?

"I'll look for him!" Before the interview was over, Avril left angrily.

Although the relationship between Avril and Yue Weihan has not yet developed to that point, Miss Avril thinks that she is already Yue Weihan's confidante, so when she knows that Yue Weihan has manipulated financial fraud and done something that damages his reputation, she does not hesitate to go to the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion to ask for the guilt.

The Commander-in-Chief's official residence, Yue Weihan's study.

Yue Weihan was teaching Huzi to draw by hand, when the door was suddenly pushed open, and when the father and son looked back in a hurry, they saw that Helen had already walked in with a pout.

"Mother Foreign?" Huzi said with a small face: "Who made you angry?" Huzi beat him! ”

"Who else?" Helen glared at Yue Weihan and said angrily, "It's your father, do you dare to beat him?" ”

Huzi was stunned when he heard this, and then turned around and made a grimace at Yue Weihan, and then ran away as if he were slipping away.

Seeing that Huzi was leaving, he actually brought the ghost and goblin to the door, Helen couldn't help but be angry, and immediately turned around and poked a finger at Yue Weihan's head and said, "Is the southwest drought really fake news? ”

Yue Weihan shrugged his shoulders and said with a wry smile: "You don't know that the expeditionary force is short of money?" ”

"Then you can't do that, can you?" Helen sighed helplessly and said, "Alas, using academic authority to publish false news, create market fear, and then make a windfall, this is fraud, and you will be held legally responsible in the United States!" How can you do such a thing that damages your image? ”

After that, Helen glared at Yue Weihan hatefully again, and said angrily: "Just wait, your English lover will soon come to settle accounts with you, but I heard that Avril's uncle also transferred more than 100 tons of rice from India." ”

"Hey, what do you mean by that?" Yue Weihan hurriedly said, "I haven't even touched Avril's one. ”

Yue Weihan originally wanted to say that he hadn't even touched Avril's hand, but when the words came to his mouth, he remembered that he had really touched Avril's little hand, not only with his hands, but even with his waist and buttocks, and his chest and crotch had not yet been touched, but according to the current progress between the two, it is estimated that it will be faster to break through the last two levels.

In the final analysis, Yue Weihan is not psychologically resistant to Avril's embrace.

As a traverser, when I came to this war-torn era, I did the physical work of licking blood with knives and knives, "The daily workload is not ordinary, shouldn't I kill a few more girls?" If you really want to live an ascetic life, you are too sorry for yourself, and you are too sorry for the glorious identity of "traverser".

Yue Weihan was thinking in his heart, and the voice of the jade fox sounded outside the study: "Avril, are you here?" ”

Helen glared at Yue Weihan with a smile, Yue Weihan hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "What, dear, you help me first, I'll go to the Army University first, I heard that the group of bastards in the general's class has been making a lot of trouble recently, and they all went to the nearby bar to fight in groups, and they are jealous, it's really unusual." ”

After that, Yue Weihan jumped out of the window and slipped away, and Helen could only smile bitterly.

Yue Weihan didn't escape far, and Avril's angry voice came from behind him: "Yue Weihan, you wait, I will expose the truth of the whole incident tomorrow!" ”

The angry Avril did not take action in the end, but the first to expose the news of Professor Zhu's refutation of rumors was the Yangon Morning Post, and then influential newspapers such as Nanyang Daily, Ta Kung Pao, and Bao Bao followed suit.

Public opinion in Nanyang was turbulent, but Yue Weihan and the Ministry of Industry chose to remain silent.

Maybe it's because they know it's wrong, or maybe they don't bother to explain, but anyway, the expeditionary force and the Burmese officials have collectively lost their voices. No matter how hard the major newspapers and many reporters tried, they were never able to interview the officials of the Ministry of Industry face to face, and Yue Weihan was not even a person, and the official theory is that Yue Weihan had gone to Mawlamyine and was now inspecting the training of the troops at the garrison of the 3rd Army, but only God knows what the real situation is.

Saigon, the headquarters of the Japanese Southern Army.

A piece of information was presented to the desk of Lieutenant General Anda 23, chief of staff of the Southern Army, and after reading the telegram, Anda 23 suddenly changed his face, if the news on the telegram was true, it would not be good news for the Southern Army, and the economic war waged by the Japanese army base camp at the expense of hundreds of tons of gold was likely to be a tragic Waterloo.

Anda Twenty-Three didn't dare to slack off, and came to Terauchi Shouichi's office with information as soon as possible.

After reading the telegram, the old devil in the temple also changed his face, and said in a deep voice: "Fake news? Swindle? Can't you? ”

The old devil in the temple could not help but be surprised, and to this day, the hundreds of tons of gold urgently transferred from the Japanese army base camp have all been converted into US dollars through various channels, and have entered Burma in the name of legal merchants from Siam, Britain, and the United States, and deposited them in major banks such as the Nanyang Bank, preparing to create an unprecedented natural disaster in the southwest of China.

But now, news has come from Myanmar that the news of the imminent drought in southwest China is false!

If the news is true, it means that hundreds of tons of gold assets that have entered Myanmar are likely to come to naught, which is absolutely a frost for the financial situation of the Japanese government, and this incident may even become the last straw that crushes the station, and eventually leads to the complete collapse of the Japanese national economy.

After pondering for a long time, the old devil in the temple asked, "Anda-kun, what do you think?" ”

Anda Twenty-three muttered: "There are only two possibilities for this matter, one is that the news is true, Yue Weihan is indeed creating a market famine to take the opportunity to accumulate huge funds, and the other may be that he deliberately invited Professor Zhu, a meteorological expert, to come out and refute the rumors, the purpose of which is to avoid triggering a larger-scale man-made famine before the arrival of the great drought."

"Yaga." The old devil in the temple said angrily, "Isn't what you said all nonsense? ”

"Hello." Anda Twenty-Three suddenly bowed his head and said, "I think the latter is more likely to be the case. ”

The old devil in the temple said: "In other words, Professor Zhu is spreading false news, and there will indeed be a major drought in southwest China?" ”

"Hello." Anda Twenty-Three nodded again and said, "It's just Yue Weihan's little trick, and that's how it should be." ”

"Yo Si." The old devil in the temple nodded happily and said, "Inform the Burmese side immediately, the plan remains unchanged, and once the Chinese expeditionary force starts to release grain to reduce prices, it will start to eat." ”

Since early February, food prices in Myanmar have oscillated and fallen.

By the end of February, the price of grain in Myanmar fell to 25 cents per catty, which was four times lower than the price of 1 US dollar per catty, during which the Chinese Expeditionary Force threw out a total of more than 200 million catties of grain, and a total of more than 100 million US dollars, which has far exceeded the principal invested by the Chinese Expeditionary Force in the early stage, and the profit has exceeded 60 million US dollars!

Just when the grain merchants of various countries were about to lose their hold, unknown capital suddenly intervened strongly.

By early March, more than 100 million catties of grain thrown out by the Chinese expeditionary force were all eaten by unknown capital, "the price of grain in Myanmar once again pulled up to a historical high of 1 US dollar per catty, and the rise continued unabated, and two days later it rose to an unprecedented 1.2 US dollars per catty" again hit a record high, and Burma finally starved to death.

Food is not like other luxuries, people can not use luxuries but cannot skip eating.

At this time, tens of billions of catties of grain transferred from India, Australia and other places finally entered Myanmar.

However, just as Yue Weihan had worried, grain merchants from all over the world almost did not believe Professor Zhu Kezhen's refutation of rumors, and before a large-scale drought broke out in the southwest of China, few people were willing to sell the grain in their hands.

On March 10, official banks such as Nanyang Bank announced interest rate hikes.

As a result, the pressure on the grain merchants of various countries immediately increased greatly, "because almost all the grain merchants borrowed money from the bank to buy grain, and now the grain is not yet ready to be sold, and the grain merchants of various countries have no funds to return at all, and even the freight of hiring ocean-going freighters is still owed." Where is the extra money to pay the sudden increase in interest?

Under pressure, the grain merchants could only borrow usury, and Du Yuesheng, who had just come to Yangon, once again opened a money village.

On March 12, Professor Zhu Kezhen released the latest research results through Nanyang Daily, claiming that there will be a large-scale heavy rainfall in China's southwestern provinces within 10 days, and the small-scale drought in early spring will be eased soon, and there will be several heavy rainfalls in the next two months, and a bumper spring grain harvest is in sight!

This is undoubtedly a death knell for grain merchants from all over the world who are hoarding!

If the wind and rain in China's southwestern provinces are good, there will be no drought at all, and then all the more than 50 billion catties of grain hoarded in the hands of various countries will rot in the warehouses.

At this time, in fact, many grain merchants have believed Professor Zhu Kezhen's later refutation of rumors, but it is a pity that things have come to this point, and they have no way out.

Don't look at the current grain price in Myanmar is still at an all-time high of 1.2 US dollars per catty, but grain merchants from all over the world are smart people, they all know very well that this price does not mean anything, if there is no huge Chinese market to support, just with the demand of Myanmar alone, as long as a few hundred million catties of grain are released, it is enough to collapse the entire market.

Therefore, before the drought broke out in southwest China, no one dared to commit suicide by putting grain easily.

However, Professor Zhu Kezhen's news that "there will be widespread heavy rainfall in China's southwestern provinces within ten days" has put a deadly noose on them, and this noose still has a time limit, and the time limit is ten days! Naturally, these ten days have become the bottom line of the psychology of grain merchants from all over the world!

If there is indeed widespread heavy rainfall in southwest China within 10 days, the whole market will definitely collapse.

If there is no widespread heavy rainfall in southwest China within 10 days, it means that Professor Zhu Kezhen's later refutation of the rumors is only a contrary to his will after being pressured by the expeditionary force, and the news that there will be a major drought in southwest China exposed in the early stage is true, then grain merchants from all countries will still grit their teeth and persist until the drought breaks out.

Ten days of life and death, this is really ten days of life and death, life or death, it depends on whether there will be rain in these ten days!
