There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Li Qiang took the grain coupon to the port logistics office.
"Ouch! Director Ming, how come you are so free to come to my place today?" Director Na Ding was excited when he saw Li Qiang and greeted him enthusiastically, "How come I heard that you were sent out a while ago?"
I'm on business? When did you come back?"
"That's right! I've been away for more than half a month. No, I just got home yesterday."
As soon as these words came out, Director Na Ding's heart skipped a beat. He just came back yesterday, and it was definitely not a good thing to rush to him in a hurry early this morning!
Thinking of this, Director Ding couldn't help but tentatively said: "Director Ming, it's not me who's the elder brother who's talking about you. You said you'll be away for more than half a month. You'll have a few more days of rest when you come back. Why?
Are you starting to get busy again?"
"Hey! I'm a hard-working person by nature. Besides, based on the friendship between the two of us, I can't just watch you suffer misfortune, right?"
"Unlucky...unlucky? Director Ming, where do you start with these words?"
"Where do you start?" At this point, Li Qiang snorted, then took out the grain coupon and slapped it in front of him, "Director Ding, I think you should recognize this.
Bar?"
"Um...Director Ming, may I ask you where you got this grain coupon?"
"Where did it come from? Thank you for asking! Let me ask you, have you offended anyone recently?"
"No!"
"No? I didn't offend anyone. Then why did someone bring your secret issuance of food coupons to Jiming Temple? I'm not trying to scare you. Minister Qin's lungs will explode after hearing this. If our commander hadn't done it for you
I said a few nice words and suppressed the matter. I have sent someone to check you long ago! Good thing you are still pretending to be confused with me! Well, since you are not even willing to tell the truth, then I will
I don’t need to put my hot face against your cold ass! Farewell!”
After saying that, Li Qiang turned around and walked out.
Director Ding was really panicked at this time and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Director Ming! Director Ming! If you have something to say, you have something to say!"
"Director Ding, to be fair, we got along pretty well before, so I came here because I sincerely want to help you. But you, on the other hand, haven't even told the truth from beginning to end. How can you expect me to?"
Is it easy to talk?"
"I...that's all, Director Ming. If you have anything to say, feel free to ask. I promise to tell you the truth and there will be no lies!"
"Alas! This is the correct attitude to solve the problem!" After hearing what Director Ding said, Li Qiang's expression softened, "Then you first tell me about this bad idea of privately issuing grain treasury coupons.
Who gave it to you?"
"It's... Dong Biao from the police station, Captain Dong."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang immediately frowned, "I said, Old Ding, you are also a division chief, why are your ears so soft? But then again, who is Dong Biao?
?How did you two get together?"
Unexpectedly, Director Ding opened his eyes wide after hearing this and said in disbelief: "That's not right! Director Ming, how could you not recognize that Dong Biao?"
"Why, should I recognize him?"
"Of course, he is the brother-in-law of Zhang Zuyin, your former commander-in-chief of the Suppression General. How could you not recognize him?"
"Nonsense! Don't I understand the situation in Director Zhang's family? His wife's natal family has been depleted for a long time. When will there be another younger brother? It's really..."
After hearing this, Director Ding waved his hands quickly, "No, no, no, Director Ming, you have misunderstood. Strictly speaking, Dong Biao's sister is not Director Zhang's wife, but the concubine he just took in not long ago."
After hearing this, Li Qiang suddenly realized and said: "That's it... no wonder! But even so, you two are on the same page and have nothing to do with each other, so why do you still follow his advice, privately?
What about issuing food coupons?”
"I...sigh!" Having said this, Director Ding couldn't help but sigh heavily, then he lit a cigarette and took a deep puff, and then slowly said, "To be honest with you,
, Director Ming, I don’t have any hobbies on weekdays. I just like to touch a few cards when I have nothing to do. But since I met that guy at the card table in the club, I have never won again. On the contrary, I have lost a lot, so
…”
"So you just listened to that guy's bad idea?"
"Well..." Director Na Ding hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded and admitted.
"How many are sent out?"
"One...one hundred..."
"Take the young master?"
"One hundred."
"Are you crazy?!"
No wonder Li Qiang was so excited. You must know that one grain coupon is equivalent to a hundred tons of grain, and one load of grain can easily be sold for five hundred gold yuan coupons on the black market, which is equivalent to two hundred and fifty oceans.
One hundred and twenty-five dollars, let alone a hundred tickets!
What is the concept of 1.25 million U.S. dollars? The uprising funds that Mr. Qiu took away at the beginning, plus the later operational value-added, are only equivalent to 500,000 U.S. dollars. These two guys are good, they got two dollars in one breath.
Half a treasure of Qiuzhuang.
After getting excited, Li Qiang calmed down and said, "That's not right! Where did you get so much grain? Aren't you afraid that those who bought Treasury bonds will come over and empty your granary?"
"Don't worry about this, Director Ming, you will never do it."
"Why?"
"That man surnamed Dong is not stupid. If he releases so much grain at once, won't he be unable to sell it at a high price? So I am asked to exchange grain for one treasury coupon at most every week."
Li Qiang couldn't help but snorted, "Don't tell me, this kid still has some economic sense!"
"Isn't that right? Last month, that guy took away three hundred dans of grain from me, but he only took 100 dans to sell on the black market. He hoarded the rest and opened a restaurant.
As a cover."
"So that's it..." Li Qiang nodded, but still frowned and continued to ask, "That's not right! Even if you said you can exchange up to four tickets a week, it still costs four hundred tons of grain.
? It was fine in the beginning, but as time goes by, aren’t you afraid that something will go wrong?”
"Don't worry!" Director Na Ding first glanced at the door cautiously after hearing this, and then lowered his voice and continued, "I'm only telling you this! In less than half a month at most, the granary in my port area will be destroyed.
The grains shipped from various places are piled high, are you afraid that there will be no grain to redeem?"
"real or fake?"
"Of course it's true. This is an order personally issued by General Doihara of the Super High School! How can it be false?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang immediately understood the key to it, and couldn't help but asked with a puzzled face: "This is strange, there are so many big ports to choose from, why do the Japanese choose to put all their food in you?"
What about here?"
"How do I know this! Anyway, in my opinion, God opened his eyes and gave me such an opportunity to make a fortune. Wouldn't I be stupid if I didn't seize it quickly?"
"Humph, you're not stupid, you just don't have a bright mind!" Li Qiang said angrily, "Have you ever thought about it? Even if you only redeem four cards a month, it will take at least more than two years to redeem them all.
, what if the Japanese change their minds during this period, or order all the food to be transported away, wouldn’t you be doomed?”
"Yes, but I bet that with that guy's temperament, something will happen before then. As soon as something happens to him..."
"As soon as something happens to him, you can logically pin all the charges on him. In this way, not only will you not be punished, but you may also be compensated, right?" Li Qiang asked.
"Director Ming is Director Ming, I really can't hide anything from you!"
"I have to say that your calculations are really good, but as the saying goes, God's calculations are better than those of others. Even if you calculated everything, you still didn't expect that those treasury bonds would fall into the hands of our commander.
Bar?"
As soon as these words came out, Director Ding, who originally wanted to grit his teeth and give Li Qiang some benefits to suppress the matter, immediately changed his expression and started to stutter even when he spoke, "No... no, Ming Chu
Commander, what do you mean by what you said? Your commander's hand...has more than one treasury bond like this in your hand?"
"What do you think?" Although Li Qiang himself didn't know if Tang Shengming still had it, it was still necessary to scare him.
Not to mention that this trick was really effective. Director Ding was immediately frightened and he didn't know what to do.
Li Qiang took the opportunity to pat his shoulder and comforted him: "Old Ding, the matter has been resolved. You don't need to be so afraid. Our commander is not an unreasonable person. Besides, based on our previous relationship, we two brothers
, I can’t just watch you suffer misfortune, can I?”
"That's right, Director Ming, given the relationship between us two brothers, you must show me a clear path!"
"This matter is difficult to say, easy to say. To be honest, our commander has been worrying about the funds to suppress the general..."
As soon as these words came out, Director Ding couldn't help but look embarrassed, "Director Ming, if it weren't for me not plucking a hair from my iron rooster, Jiming Temple wouldn't be able to pay out the funds for the entire suppression campaign. I'm a small director, so what?"
Can you afford it?”
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang's face suddenly sank, "Hey, Director Ding, can you please listen to what I have to say first? To put it bluntly, even if you can afford it, this funding is still in turn.
You can’t send it to me!”
"That's that, that's..." Director Ding quickly echoed, "Then... what does Director Ming mean?"
"I want you to bring some food out and distribute it temporarily instead of salary to appease people's hearts a little. I don't think you will refuse this request, Director Ding, right?"
"No! Of course not!" Director Ding smiled apologetically and kept rubbing his hands while asking, "It's just... what is the specific number?"
"Don't worry, we won't make things too difficult for you. There are only a hundred or so people in the headquarters, and each person has three loads of food per month. Isn't that a lot?"
"Not much! Not much! It's just Director Ming. As you know, I still have to find a way to redeem four hundred tons of grain coupons every month. If... I mean if, if you can help me solve this problem."
Please, how about I increase the monthly grain supply to 500 dan?"
"If I deal with Captain Dong, I can get five hundred tons of grain from you every month? Well, this is a good deal." Li Qiang touched his chin and muttered, "And after it is done, Director Ding, you
Not only do you no longer have any worries, you can also save your job in disguise, because even for the five hundred tons of food per month, the commander will try his best to let you continue to sit in this seat. I have to say, Director Ding
What a good plan!"
"It's just a personal calculation that made Director Ming laugh."
"It doesn't matter! A real villain is much better than those hypocrites who talk about benevolence, justice and morality. Then... let's settle this matter?"
“It’s a deal!”
After that, Li Qiang was about to get up and leave, but he was stopped by Director Ding, "Wait a minute, Director Ming! That little Diao, Xiao Diao!"
Before he finished speaking, a subordinate came in from the outside and said, "Director, did you call me?"
"Go! Find a car, load it with two hundred loads of grain, and send it to the Suppression Headquarters!"
However, before Xiao Diao could speak, Li Qiang couldn't help but refuse: "Oh, Director Ding, this... isn't very good, is it?"
"What's so good about this? Who made us two brothers have such a good relationship? This is purely our personal communication in private, and it's useless even if others look at it!"
"Since Director Ding has spoken out for this reason, then I would be disrespectful!"
…
Half an hour later.
"Okay, Brother Ming, once you take action, you can see immediate results. How quickly can you deal with Director Ding and get the food back?"
Li Qiang immediately started complaining mode, and said to Tang Shengming with a bitter look on his face: "Commander, you don't know, that old boy named Ding looks simple and honest on the outside, but he is actually very shrewd!"
"Really? How to say?"
"My subordinates thought that when the grain coupons were revealed, the old boy wouldn't bow his head and admit his mistake and let us deal with it? I never thought that that guy had received guidance from some master, and he insisted that that
The grain treasury coupons are fake and were forged by someone with ulterior motives and malicious intent. Don’t you think this is annoying?”
"Fake? That's good! I'll send all those food coupons to Chairman Wang now, so that he can distinguish the real ones from the fake ones!"
"Commander, Commander, please don't get excited. I told him the same thing at the time, and then I calmed him down and told the truth." At this point, Li Qiang suddenly changed the subject, "But Commander, this is what I said.
Then again, even if this matter is brought to Chairman Wang, if that guy still insists that those grain treasury coupons are forged, there is really nothing we can do against him."
"Then how did you make him submit?"
"My subordinate made a deal with him."
"What deal?"
"Find a way to help him get rid of the initiators of this matter."
"who?"
"It's none other than Captain Dong of the police station, Dong Biao!"
