Although Chen Mingxiang still doesn't know what Kitazeping's intention is in doing this, getting these important clues will play a big role in deciphering his conspiracy in the future.
Yoshiko Kawashima, who provided the clues, must also be compensated. This notorious female spy was of extraordinary value. If he wanted to obtain information about the North China Front Army in the future, he would have to open a breakthrough from her, and Chen Mingxiang was not willing to spend money.
"People always learn to cherish when they lose. With Mr. Chen's help, I can have the life I have now. I feel very satisfied. Forget the reward, just think of it as my New Year gift to you!" Chuan
Shima Yoshiko said with a smile.
A smart woman knows when to say something and what gesture to make, and she is this type. It is better to wait than to ask for something, and you may get more in this way.
"Very well, Miss Kawashima is well-deserved, but I have my own principles for doing things. Let's do this. I will give you twenty thousand US dollars as a reward. I believe you also know the value of this money. If you have any important information in the future, just tell me.
The remuneration will definitely not disappoint you." Chen Mingxiang said.
Every time he went outside the customs and North China, he carried a large sum of U.S. dollars with him, just in case there was an emergency and he was too late to prepare. Under the watchful eye of Kawashima Yoshiko, he took the suitcase and opened it. There was a fifty-dollar denomination inside.
and U.S. dollars in one-hundred-yuan denominations, which made her eyes light up.
Although the U.S. dollar is not the current currency in circulation, anyone with a little knowledge will know that the U.S. dollar will be a very important foreign exchange in the future and has a high value-preserving function.
"The U.S. dollar, like gold, is the most valuable thing at the moment. In such a war-torn period, one stone and meter costs tens of thousands of dollars. Money is no longer money, it is equivalent to paper covering the wall!"
"There are probably only a few people in the country who can easily come up with such a large sum of U.S. dollars. In the past, people were not used to saving U.S. dollars. Later, with the fall of the Shanghai Concession and the port city, there were no channels to reserve U.S. dollars. Mr. Chen is really powerful.
, no wonder you can enjoy it everywhere you go.”
"The ultimate manifestation of power is wealth. Whether it is the officials of the Jinling government or the Yamacheng government, the Japanese are the same. They are more greedy, but those officials want money more purely, while the Japanese generals are still worried about the so-called
The empire and the emperor." Yoshiko Kawashima said with a smile.
It can be heard from these words that this female spy's "loyalty" to Japan is very limited. Perhaps after the ups and downs, she now only hopes to get the luxurious life she wants.
Bei Zeping, who returned to Shanghai, received the news from He Dinghong and secretly arrested the important target Tan Xiaodong. Unprepared, he was lured out of his residence by He Dinghong. While he was out working, the intelligence team of Mei Agency
Japanese agents captured him and took him to a secret detention point, and all this was monitored by the intelligence department of the direct reporting station.
But the problem here is that the target of surveillance by the intelligence department of the direct station is Bei Zeping, and they do not know that the arrested Tan Xiaodong is a member of the underground party. However, the arrest of Tan Xiaodong and some related photos are not known.
It was also recorded and archived by the Intelligence Department, waiting for Chen Mingxiang’s return to make a decision.
The development of the matter was as He Dinghong expected. After just one minute of sitting on the electric chair, the guy couldn't hold on any longer and told all the secrets he knew.
Then, he was forced to write a detailed written explanation by the interrogators of Mei's agency intelligence team, and was then sent back to continue to maintain the status quo. But from this moment on, he has become a shameful traitor to Japan.
Intelligence agency insider!
This guy's surrender process was too short. It was so short that the underground municipal committee didn't notice it at all. In addition, he was in the electric chair and there were no superficial scars. This also brought great hidden dangers to the underground organization.
What troubled Bei Zeping was that the underground party's work was too confidential. Tan Xiaodong didn't know where the leaders of the Shanghai underground municipal party committee lived.
Normally, work such as contacts and conversations were carried out at the residence of a comrade in the traffic team, which forced him to take a long time to catch the big fish and put the place under surveillance.
In addition, since Chen Mingxiang has not returned to the Shanghai market, Zheng Tonghui's whereabouts are temporarily monitored. He cannot leave the Shanghai market through normal channels. If there is any abnormality, the agents of the Mei Agency will arrest him.
"I have already made an agreement with the Gendarmerie. The production at the Tanggu Salt Farm will continue. They will allocate me an additional batch, with a total quantity of 20,000 tons of salt. The Kailuan Coal Mine in Phoenix City has 30,000 tons of crushed coal per month. The key is
Yes, my current ships are not enough. Four 5,000-ton cargo ships can only transport 20,000 tons of cargo at a time. Therefore, 10,000 tons of coal every month are transported directly to the port cargo yard, and then you receive it and make briquettes."
"My future plan is to make the briquettes in Shanghai mainly from Jincheng and reserve coal in Shanghai. God knows when this war will last and what the outcome will be. If sea transportation is interrupted, Shanghai will
There is still enough coal to supply the citizens," Chen Mingxiang said.
He did not expect the situation to be so serious, nor did he expect that something would happen to Zheng Tonghui. He stayed in Peiping for three days, and then went to Jincheng for two days to inspect the briquettes factory and Tanggu Salt Field.
As the business of Huatong Trading Company shrinks, Chen Mingxiang will have to rely on coal and salt as his financial resources in the future, which are also the economic sources to support the directly affiliated stations, so he cannot help but not pay attention to them.
After connecting with the Jincheng Gendarmerie, he took a plane back to Shanghai. As soon as he got off the plane, someone at the airport notified the Mei agency intelligence team.
"I received a report from the airport that Chen Mingxiang has returned to Shanghai. Then our action plan must be implemented as soon as possible. During this period, you will send people to keep an eye on him. When Zheng Tonghui meets with him, we will suddenly arrest him.
, everyone who comes will get the stolen goods!" Bei Zeping said.
At the North China Front Army Headquarters, he had already forged a piece of paper with important military information written on it. This was the main means used to threaten Chen Mingxiang.
But what's interesting is that Chen Mingxiang didn't know about it at all, and neither did Zheng Tonghui. Instead, relying on the special nature of the Mei Agency, I said it was found on site, and that's the fact!
In Bei Zeping's plan, as long as Chen Mingxiang and Zheng Tonghui are arrested at the same time, and with this piece of paper, Chen Mingxiang can be killed. He doesn't even want to carry out the interrogation process, and will eliminate the other party as quickly as possible.
When everything is done, who can take responsibility for Chen Mingxiang?
No matter how powerful Chen Mingxiang is, he is still Chinese, and Kitazawa Ping is a lieutenant colonel of the Imperial Japanese Army and the head of the intelligence department of the Mei Agency. Is it possible that he has to turn his elbows outward?
