Chapter 1000: The Financial Dark War That Begins Soon

Yinglin Club Residence.

Han Lin called Yue Yingfeng, the colonel of the Secret Service Manager Section, to the tearoom to talk, this guy had just been ordered to return to Shanghai from Spring City, ready to accept a new task to deal with the smuggling business between the Secret Service and the secret service headquarters.

In the intelligence department of the Secret Service, Yue Yingfeng and the department he led were stationed in Shanghai, not in Shancheng, and their functions were crucial.

He was responsible for the normal trade of all Han Lin's companies, the research and development, production and sales of the factories, including the pharmaceutical and tobacco factories, and the smuggling activities, and was also responsible for the allocation of funds for the field department, and his position was equivalent to that of the director of the manager's office of the Military Control Bureau.

In addition, he is also a professional agent, and he received professional training during the Second Division, and Yue Yingfeng is responsible for collecting economic information on the occupied areas of the Secret Service, which is also a very important job.

In fact, the agents led by Yue Yingfeng have infiltrated the important economic departments of the Japanese puppet in many places and developed a lot of internal lines, but the economic activities are far less sensitive than the military activities, and there are no problems.

Because it was a time of war, whether it was normal business or smuggling, he needed to deal with the Japanese puppet military and police gendarmes, and his network also penetrated into the military and police departments in many places.

Without his hard work, there would have been a big problem in the operation of the secret service, and money can be said to be unimportant, but in fact it is more important than anything else.

The Guangyuan Trading Company led by Yue Yingfeng is an open commercial organization, and the so-called openness is known to the Japanese puppet that he is the actual person in charge of Han Lin's business, and many of the industries he manages are all Han Lin's industries.

In addition to the pharmaceutical and tobacco factories, the company secretly controlled more than a dozen factories such as textile factories, machinery factories, and chemical factories in the Shanghai concession area, as well as more than 20 companies in the warehousing, transportation, salt industry, and shipping industry, and the scale was extremely astonishing.

It is no exaggeration to say that the number of personnel working under him is much larger than that of the Shanghai urban area of the Military Command Bureau, but most of them are not the official establishment of the special services.

"Miss Tang is also there?" Yue Yingfeng saw that Tang Ying was also here, and said hello with a smile.

Han Lin is often in Shanghai, and someone must take care of the Tang family on his behalf, and Yue Yingfeng, a person with a public identity, is the best choice. During the New Year's holidays, Yue Yingfeng had to go to Tang's house to deliver things, so he and Tang Ying were also very familiar.

"Let's talk, I'll go shopping with Wang Qi!" Tang Ying knew that the two had something to discuss, and she was not interested in any of them, so she stood up and said with a smile.

Han Lin has been accompanying her for the past two days, and also asked her if she wanted to go to the mountain city to live for a while, but she still refused.

"This is the identification certificate issued to you by the Mei Agency, with the seal of the Mei Agency, and you can show this certificate if you are in trouble when you are in trouble in the future activities in the occupied area. I called you back this time for the sake of the material needs of the rear, I am going to expand the scale of smuggling, cooperate with the secret service headquarters, and tomorrow I will connect with You Jiqing, the manager of the Southeast Trading Company, to discuss the specific details. ”

"I have received news that the Yamashiro government, in consideration of actual needs, plans to set up a wartime freight management bureau next year to be responsible for the work of snatching goods from the occupied areas. At present, the Military Command Bureau is our biggest opponent and only opponent, and Boss Dai has the help of Boss Du of the Green Gang, and it also has a strong competitiveness, so now we have to start operating and build a good smuggling network. ”

"Over the years, your work has been the most trivial and hard, and the field work is excellent, including your sweat and hard work, but you can't enjoy their scenery. I plan to take advantage of the formation of the wartime freight management bureau to give you the post of deputy director, and if we perform well, I will have reason to apply for you to be promoted to the rank of major general. Han Lin said.

After the news that the Ministry of Finance was going to set up a wartime freight management bureau was privately informed by the little padded jacket lady of Minister Kong's family, Han Lin understood very well that the most suitable person to operate this matter was Yue Yingfeng, who originally wanted to take Peng Fuhai with him, but the goods were not willing to come out at all.

"I don't care about the major generals and many generals, the salary paid is not enough for me to invite someone to Baile for a night's consumption, I prefer the functions of the wartime freight management bureau, to put it bluntly, it is a special smuggling agency, this is good, our special service department catches smuggling with one hand, and engages in smuggling with the other, this kind of operation is a bit interesting!" When Yue Yingfeng heard the news, his eyes immediately lit up.

The major generals of the Yamashiro government are paid 160 yuan a month according to the standard of national hardship pay, while the intelligence department does not carry out the national hardship salary, and the monthly salary is 320 yuan. It sounds like a lot, but the current fiat currency is not the ocean it used to be, and its purchasing power is getting lower and lower.

Really put in high-end consumption places, this money is indeed not enough for a night of consumption, when talking about business, it is always accompanied by entertainment activities, which is the case in later generations, and the same is true during the Republic of China.

"Just for the sake of smuggling at the Secret Service Headquarters, I won't urgently call you to Shanghai, because there is a secret mission for you to carry out. I got the news that the Japanese are secretly making counterfeit fiat currency banknotes, using financial means to crack down on the value of fiat currency, disrupting the financial order and economic development of the rear, and arbitrarily purchasing materials from the rear, so as to achieve the goal of sabotaging the Yamashiro government's war of resistance. ”

"The Chengda company opened by Sakata Chengsheng is the specific implementation agency of this despicable plan, these counterfeit banknotes were printed in Japan, and then shipped to Shanghai to be handed over to Chengda Company, and this company is actually a secret agency, internally called Sugi or Sakata Agency, because the code name of this plan in the Japanese military department is Sugi work."

"In the past, Japan's research and development agency Noborito Research Institute on fiat currency did not crack the secret of printing fiat currency, and the number of counterfeit banknotes issued was very small, which did not cause any waves in the financial market, but with the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese army's counterfeit banknote plan will also be carried out wildly, and you have to dock with Xu Yin Zheng and work together to complete the destruction of the plan." Han Lin said.

"As soon as you say this, I also think of one thing, the businessmen who have cooperated with us recently, there are really a few who have received counterfeit money, but the amount is not very large, adding up to thirty or forty thousand yuan, the degree of imitation is almost chaotic, and it is impossible to see it without careful identification, combined with the information you gave, I have a number in my heart."

"Actually conniving at their own army to print counterfeit money, this is a serious violation of international law, of course, the Japanese are a country with no lower limit, I don't feel strange to do such a thing, but boss, blindly passive fighting, not the style of our secret service, you have other plans, right?" Yue Yingfeng asked.

"Of course, they can make counterfeit banknotes, and we can too, the yen has special characteristics in anti-counterfeiting, and we can't make the paper they use, but what about the Wang puppet government now issuing central reserve bonds? The time is not yet ripe, and when a large amount of counterfeit money appears on the market, I will apply to the Military Commission, and our special service will repay him in the same way. Han Lin said.
