Under Li Shiqun's strict order, county governments in various places made every effort to purchase grain. Through the Bao Chief and Jia Chief of each village, and under the cover of the police and security teams, rice was continuously transported to various cities without going through the county grain depot.
The price given by the grain depot is more than 700 yuan per stone. If you want to read the complete version for free, please search on Baidu.
Why not go by the county grain depot?
In fact, it is easy to explain. Japanese businessmen sent people to stay in the grain depot. They would eat as much grain as they came, so they had to intercept it halfway, otherwise they would not be able to snatch a grain of grain from the dog's mouth.
The price given by Li Shiqun is a bit low according to the current market conditions, but it falls within the market price stipulated by the Ministry of Food of the Wang Puppet Government, and is far higher than the price given by the Japanese Hua Zhongliang Rice Purchasing Group.
The greedy Japanese purchase price for japonica rice is 600 yuan per kilo of China Reserve Bonds, and 550 yuan per kilo for indica rice. The difference is at least 200 yuan per kilo.
Since the common people do not send food to the county grain depot, the Japanese have no way to force them to buy food. They do not have that many manpower to go to villages and towns to supervise the grain harvest. In addition, cities, counties and districts in Jiangsu Province conceal the production of each place.
, the Nippon Hua Zhongliang Rice Acquisition Group immediately became prosperous.
Of course, Li Shiqun couldn't do everything right. Twenty percent of the ten percent was to be transported to the county grain depot. If the Japanese army couldn't receive the grain, it would be a disaster.
"Chen Jun, the Huazhong Grain and Rice Purchasing Group reported to the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army that the purchases in Jiami District and Yimi District are not ideal. Now is the best stage for new grains to be launched. They have only completed 100% of the prescribed tasks.
About five-fifths. According to this number, not to mention supplying the imperial army in North China and supporting the Kwantung Army, most of the dispatched army's own troops will be threatened by food."
"This matter is very serious. The lack of food will shake the morale of the army and reduce its combat effectiveness. General Hata Shunroku attaches great importance to it and sent Chief of General Staff Matsui Tataro to personally supervise the matter. You are in Suzhou, secretly investigate for me, what is the cause of this phenomenon?
Write a written report to me and I will submit it to the commander-in-chief." Kinoshita Sakaeichi called and said.
The acquisition of military rations was hindered. This was a top priority for the Japanese army. If they couldn't even eat, how could they talk about combat effectiveness? So the Japanese businessmen complained to the dispatched army headquarters, and the military police headquarters was ordered to investigate.
"Your Excellency, General, I will start investigating this matter tomorrow. In fact, there are only a few reasons, and you must know them well, but I will form a written report as soon as possible and rush back to Shanghai to give it to you." Chen Mingxiang said.
What is the reason? Don’t you Japanese invaders have any idea?
Although I thought so in my heart, I couldn't say it. I had to find a "reason" to excuse the Japanese army. This was the fault of the Jinling government and Li Shiqun and others. In addition, the price of grain purchased by Japanese merchants was too low, which led to this.
The imperial army has no responsibility for this situation.
"Bureau chief, according to the official letter sent to our Military Command Bureau by Chief Gu of the Third War Zone and Chief Li of the Fifth War Zone, as well as the messages from our two teams, all the 30,000 tons of rice that Dongfeng promised to purchase have been received. You two
The commander spoke highly of the performance of the Military Command Bureau and submitted a commendation to the Military Commission of the Yamacheng Government. This is an unprecedented and happy event!"
"The Mingyue power generation plan is going smoothly. The Japanese Army Expeditionary Force Headquarters is already anxious about the food purchase. The Gendarmerie Headquarters appointed Chunfeng to investigate the specific reasons and report it to the Commander-in-Chief." Pan Qiwu said with a smile.
"It was indeed a beautiful job. It took 11 days to transport 30,000 tons of rice to the two war zones. This will greatly alleviate the problem of military food, reduce the pressure on the local people, and also share the worries of the Military Commission.
The old man was very happy and wrote a commendation order in his own handwriting. He also gave Chunfeng a bonus of 10,000 U.S. dollars and a record of great merit to the Military Command Bureau."
"The first phase has been completed. The second phase is the most important. Give Cheng Kexiang power and ask him to seize the time to urge Zhou Fahai, advise the Japanese side, and encourage the Mei government to eradicate Li Shiqun. Ask Chunfeng to take action and use his
The huge relationship put Li Shiqun to death." Dai Li said.
All Chen Mingxiang did was for one purpose, which was to eradicate Li Shiqun, a big traitor. But now that the plan is in progress, there is only one final step left.
Now that it has attracted the attention of the Japanese, it means that the conditions in all aspects are mature, and it is the best time to work together to promote the Japanese to kill Li Shiqun.
"Ming Yue called and said that the market has risen too fast this time and the purchase price has increased from one thousand to one thousand two thousand. She asked the bureau headquarters to make up for the difference in the 60 million China Reserve Bonds."
"Also, she applied for ten of the latest radio stations. The intelligence team of Mei's agency is keeping a close eye on Chunfeng. It is no longer convenient to send the radio at home. Chunfeng decided that from now on, Mara Villa will only receive reception, and no power generation is allowed unless it is an emergency.
When generating electricity, you have to go to the headquarters of BOC separately or at random," Pan Qiwu said.
"This request must be met. The bureau headquarters will send goods worth 90 million China Reserve Certificates to Huatong Trading Company in three months. The U.S. Navy will send us ten radio stations. It is estimated that in order to collect grain this time, she
It drained all the cash flow of Huatong Trading Company," Dai Li said.
Pan Qiwu also knew that the boss felt a rare sense of guilt towards Chen Mingxiang. Over the years, Huatong Trading Company had made a great contribution to the bureau headquarters. The bureau headquarters relied on others to operate the funds, and they also added tasks from time to time. Just every day
How much does it cost to have 2,000 tons of salt per month?
It was said that the loan amounted to 6,000 tons of salt for three months, but it has expired so far. The bureau headquarters has no intention of paying back the money. The manager pretended to be deaf and did not mention it, and Boss Dai did not press it.
The key to repaying the money is that the Military Command Bureau never has enough money to spend.
"Bureau chief, what the manager wants to do is to lend Chunfeng another two thousand tons of salt every month to fund our bureau headquarters." At this point, he was interrupted.
"The people in the manager's office are just talking nonsense. Tell them that starting from this month, the normal trading methods with Chang'an Trading Company's Hu Salt and Haiyuan Salt Company's Sea Salt will resume. If you want goods, you will pay for them. No credit is allowed if you don't have money."
, don’t even think about playing such a trick again!”
"I used to be considerate of them, but now I'm more serious about it. I think I'm living a comfortable life with free salt. I don't know how much pressure the leader is under, and I don't know how to do my job!"
"Now the exchange of special coupons has brought a large amount of gold and scarce materials from the occupied areas, and the funds of the bureau headquarters have also been greatly alleviated. Under such circumstances, matters involving money have to be solved by Dongfeng.
Have you become your grandson?" Dai Li said extremely dissatisfied.
The image of the bureau and his boss was probably ruined in the minds of Chunfeng and others. Greedy, dishonest, unreasonable, etc. are all ready-made words.
