Chapter five hundred and eighty: both food and life
"Minister, you also know that I always make decisions before I act. I don't fight uncertain battles. Since I didn't attack Su Chengde, I just don't have enough strength to kill him with a stick."
"I have already talked about this matter with Minister Zhou, and he is very supportive of it. It doesn't matter that Su Chengde betrayed the secret service headquarters, but joining the Gongguan faction is tantamount to betraying him."
"I haven't done any work on Chen Gongbo's side yet. I guess the problem won't be too big. Anyway, it's just to hang up Su Chengde. There are many people in the government department who are equivalent to the police chief."
"But I think this is not enough. In the Jinling government, you are the provincial chairman, the director of the investigation and statistics department, and the secretary-general of the Qingxiang Committee. I am a soft-spoken person, but you are completely different. If we join forces to deal with him, we will lose him.
It’s weird.” Chen Mingxiang said.
This time he took the initiative to come to Li Shiqun, and the method was definitely different. Not showing his trump card would make Li Shiqun underestimate him, and also give the other party a feeling that cooperation with him is reliable and guaranteed.
, paving the way for the subsequent food smuggling.
Chen Mingxiang came to Suzhou for two purposes. One was to kill Su Chengde, but it could not be done in a short time. However, with this matter in front, the relationship between Li Shiqun and him would be further developed, and then the second purpose would be implemented.
Smuggling of grain in Kuomintang-controlled areas.
It is very difficult to achieve these two goals. Which one should be mentioned first and which one should be mentioned later is also a matter of course. It is a strategy and a kind of wisdom.
"Brother, you are still too young and have not considered the problem thoroughly enough. Who is Su Chengde? He is a veteran agent of the Central Bureau of Statistics. He is cunning and difficult to deal with. You just want to make him fall into trouble. You don't know how to fight.
The principle is that if a snake does not die, it will cause harm to itself.”
"If you plan to mess with someone like this, you must ensure that he is never a threat. In this way, you are responsible for the front part and I will be responsible for the back part!" Li Shiqun nodded and said.
Hearing that Zhou Fahai had agreed to deal with Su Chengde, Li Shiqun felt that there was a 50% chance of winning in this matter. If Chen Gongbo agreed, the chance of winning would increase to at least 80%. If he added fuel to the fire, Su Chengde would indeed have no chance of turning around.
"Does the minister mean to kill?" Chen Mingxiang asked cautiously.
The words coming out of Li Shiqun's mouth are always more advantageous than coming out of his own mouth. It was originally he who initiated the matter, but now it's reversed. If Li Shiqun wants to kill Su Chengde, he becomes his assistant. One is doing it openly and the other is doing it secretly.
, the government sent someone to settle the accounts, but they couldn't find him.
"It was entirely his own fault that Su Chengde was kicked out of Jinling by the Special Higher Education Department. He was too greedy and got retribution. The position of director of the Jinling Police Department is a big one. Without my recommendation, he wouldn't have been able to get this position."
"Now that I have left the secret service headquarters, I will just stay there and ignore my support. I dare to interfere in the establishment of the secret service. I am really tired! I don't know that the territory of the Jinling government belongs to me, Li Shiqun and
Is the world controlled by the Secret Service Headquarters?"
"I just want to kill as a warning to prevent those restless guys from becoming too full to set up an intelligence agency. As long as Su Chengde dies, I will kill anyone who wants to interfere in my territory!" Li Shiqun showed his fierce look at this moment.
He doesn't do things entirely based on his own personality, otherwise he wouldn't be where he is now. In fact, this guy is very smart.
He and the Secret Service Headquarters had offended too many people, especially the police department who had passed away. This had caused the deterioration of the relationship with Zhou Fahai from the beginning, and had made this brother-in-law, who was a brother-in-law, very difficult to reach.
Zhou Fahai used his tricks to abolish this department.
The position of secretary-general of the Qingxiang Committee once again gave Zhou Fahai a heavy blow, and also offended Luo Junqiang. Also, Chen Gongbo, the No. 2 figure in the Jinling government, had never been interested in the secret service headquarters. The position of provincial chairman also offended
After several rounds of high-ranking officials and military officials, this kind of hostile force is quite terrifying.
In the past, the Secret Service Headquarters and he were protected by the powerful Ying Zuo Zhenzhao. Unfortunately, Ying Zuo Zhenzhao is leaving, and the enemies of the Secret Service Headquarters are likely to join forces to deal with him.
He is a person with no roots. He was originally from a humble background and was just a small agent of the Central Unification. He does not have strong supporters in the Jinling government. The only method he can adopt is to scare the enemy and shock him with the bloodiest and coldest facts.
them.
"I am indeed not as thorough as the minister, so the matter is settled. I will take it step by step slowly. First, I will use the relationship between Zhou Fahai and Chen Gongbo, and you will exert pressure from the side to remove Su Chengde from the position of police chief.
Pulling it up, without this barrier, his life and death depend on the minister's thoughts." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
"Brother, although you work in our special agent headquarters and hold an important position, you are not a professional agent after all. You have not received professional training, nor have you been tempered in this environment. You don't know much about those intrigues.
You will understand after a long time." Li Shiqun also laughed.
"Minister, I have another important thing to do when I come to Suzhou this time. A customer of Huatong Trading Company came to me privately and wanted to purchase a batch of grain from Suzhou. The price is very affordable."
"At the price of two hundred Central Reserve Certificates per stone, the first batch will purchase 10,000 stones of rice. If you want legal currency, you can do it. This is a long-term transaction. As long as you dare to sell, they will dare to buy."
"It's just that Jiangsu Province has always been a famous land of plenty and a major source of rations for the Imperial Army. I'm worried that the supply of supplies is insufficient and I won't be able to make the money. Besides, there are great risks in doing this. Maybe the Japanese will
Investigate." Chen Mingxiang said.
This is the skill of speaking. He wanted Li Shiqun to sell grain, but he didn't want Li Shiqun to doubt him, so he pointed out the stakes. Even though it was just one sentence, it played a crucial role.
Will Li Shiqun do this business?
There is no doubt about this. Chen Mingxiang knows the greed of the couple Li Shiqun and Ye Jiqing. They typically want money rather than their lives and dare to do anything daring.
The grain of the Qingxiang Committee was forced to be bought from ordinary people at low prices. One stone of rice, excluding shipping costs, could earn an estimated one hundred yuan in China Reserve coupons, and ten thousand stone of rice was equivalent to one million China Reserve coupons!
"You know that Jiangsu Province is a land of fish and rice, so there is nothing to worry about. Ten thousand shi of rice only amounts to 600 tons. The quantity is not large, and the price given is reasonable. You don't have to worry about the supply. I will handle it.
, but how to transport it is up to you." Li Shiqun said.
At this stage, the Japanese army's food collection task is not that urgent. He has enough supplies for trading, and he has a good personal relationship with the "Taiwan Emperor" of the Qingxiang Committee, so the risk is not too high.
But what Li Shiqun didn't expect was that Chen Mingxiang was not buying his food, but his life!
