Six hundred and eighth chapter let go of the cold arrow three
"Mr. Zhou, for a loan of up to 40 million in legal currency, the conditions offered are so low, which is not in compliance with the regulations!" Kimura, the Japanese consultant of the Central Bank of China, said while looking at the loan application.
A loan of up to 40 million French currency, with a ten-year repayment period and no interest, made him, a Japanese consultant, scratch his head.
Although Kimura is the top consultant of the Central Bank of China, he is actually working in collusion with Zhou Gaohai. He turns a blind eye to some corruption and bribery at the Central Bank of China. Zhou Gaohai tacitly allows him to profit from the trust company. The relationship between the two parties is very close.
"Kimura-kun, this was approved by the Dispatch Army Headquarters and the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute. Look at the lender and the lender. They are Huatong Trading Company and Chen Mingxiang."
"You must know what happened in Shanghai. There was a conflict between Japanese textile companies and Huatong Trading Company. Chen Mingxiang decided to move the textile factory to Suzhou. This also went through the decision-making process between the Dispatch Army Headquarters and the Thirteenth Army Headquarters.
Agree.”
"Chen Mingxiang himself can't sustain the relocation of three large textile factories at once, the rebuilding of factory buildings, the purchase of cotton, and the payment of wages to the workers."
"Otherwise, it can be said that the imperial army's procurement of military supplies cannot be delayed. Therefore, he first borrowed a sum of legal currency from the Central Bank of China to complete the imperial army's targets." Zhou Fahai said with a smile.
After receiving an "activity fee" of 200,000 US dollars last night, he naturally wanted to collect money to do things. This morning, he first called the dispatched army headquarters and the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Academy to explain Chen Mingxiang's requirements clearly. Both parties knew about it.
Whatever the case, there is no objection to this.
Even if Chen Mingxiang does not lend money, the Japanese army plans to use the confiscated legal currency to Huatong Trading Company through the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Yuan. Chen Mingxiang will find a way to raise funds by himself to purchase supplies for the imperial army without waiting. This is a must.
Supported.
What's more, Huatong Trading Company's textile factories have been squeezed out of the Shanghai stock market. At least until the end of the year, Huatong Trading Company's transactions will be affected. This is extremely annoying to the military.
"Oh, it turns out it's a loan from Huatong Trading Company, so there's no problem. I know this is a military-controlled enterprise of the Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai. It specializes in purchasing strategic materials for the dispatched army and the Thirteenth Army. A few days ago, it was
After being commended by the empire, Chen Mingxiang was awarded a second-class Ruibao Medal of Light."
"By the way, I want to tell you some news. The imperial government has decided to abolish the Koya Institute and establish the Greater East Asia Province. This matter is still in the discussion stage, but there is no suspense about it passing." Kimura said.
The famous name of Huatong Trading Company is in Central China, and any Japanese with enough qualifications will know what is going on. It is a large-scale smuggling organization that serves the Japanese army, and its weight is quite heavy.
Chen Mingxiang's name is also familiar to Kimura. The largest smuggling leader in Shanghai is supported by both the navy and the army. This is a rare situation. Recently, he has become famous because he received the Imperial Medal.
"The abolition of so many institutions to form the Greater East Asia Province means that the relationship between the occupied areas and Japan has changed from cooperation to a colony, there is no longer diplomatic relations, and it has become an administrative region of Japan!"
Zhou Fahai was extremely shocked by this news. In Japan, provinces and ministries are the same concept, and the Greater East Asia Province is equivalent to a ministry of the governments of other countries.
After hearing Kimura's explanation, he learned that this was a special organization planned by the Tojo cabinet to integrate resources from China and Southeast Asia.
Japan's institutions in the occupied territories are complex. In addition to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Hung Asia Institute and the Manchurian Affairs Bureau, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also has the East Asia Bureau and the Nanyang Bureau. Such functions are overlapping and are not conducive to the unified utilization of resources.
"Mr. Songgang, from now on my property in Jinling will be taken care of by you. Please take care of me!" Chen Mingxiang said.
This is at the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Jinling. He used two hundred thousand dollars to get Zhou Fahai out last night. This is equivalent to completing the first step, and the second step will be implemented immediately.
For an old fox like Zhou Fahai, there is no need to speak too clearly. Even if it is only 100,000 US dollars, the loan can be settled. The reason why he made the big bet directly was because of Su Chengde.
The commander of the Japanese military police headquarters in Jinling is Colonel Songgang. This Japanese soldier has the power to supervise all intelligence agencies and police departments in Jinling. Su Chengde's Jinling Police Department naturally has to obey his command. If you don't worship the dock, it is
No way.
Due to the importance of Jinling, Major General Kinoshita Eichi of the Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai may not be able to suppress the Military Police Headquarters here. In order to eliminate possible obstacles to getting rid of Su Chengde, Chen Mingxiang gave Colonel Matsuoka US$20,000 as a meeting gift. Sure enough,
The military police commander was impressed.
"Mr. Chen, you are so polite. I have been friends with Mr. Gangcun for many years. I have often heard him mention you. Please rest assured that I will notify the military police below to take care of your property in Jinling."
"You are the most loyal friend of the empire, and you have also received a medal from His Majesty the Emperor. Our military police have the obligation to provide you with a good environment." Colonel Matsuoka said with a smile.
Jinling is not as prosperous as the Shanghai Stock Exchange, its industry is underdeveloped, and its commercial trade is half-dead. Those who sent him money were all China Reserve Bonds. When had he ever seen so many U.S. dollars?
Don't think that foreign currencies like the US dollar are easy to see. In fact, during the Republic of China, the US dollar was only used as the country's foreign exchange reserves. Domestic transactions did not use US dollars at all. Only big businessmen with ocean trade would reserve some US dollars. More people
The reserves are still gold bars.
In Shanghai, an international metropolis, the U.S. dollar is still familiar. This depends on its international status, coupled with the existence of the British and American concessions, Jinling is far behind.
"I haven't seen Mr. Gangcun for a long time. If it's convenient for you, you can invite him over. It's rare for everyone to get together to chat and have a meal." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
"I think this is a good idea. It only takes more than ten hours for him to drive from Jiangxia. If by chance he can get on an Army transport plane without missing lunch, I will send him electricity right away." Colonel Songgang also became more energetic.
.
Chen Mingxiang had racked his brains to deal with Su Chengde. The protection money could only make Colonel Songgang favor him, but it did not give him absolute support. Therefore, his "old superior" Major Gangcun came to help.
The number of Japanese army military police is actually not large, and this system is more united than the field force. Military police units in various places are connected with each other, and they will do their best to help when encountering problems.
Ten minutes later, Major Gangcun replied that an Army transport plane would arrive at Jinling in the evening. He had already made an agreement with the Army Aviation Flying Group to take this transport plane and arrive at about ten o'clock in the evening.
Chen Mingxiang suddenly thought that if he could make good use of this opportunity, it would be a fatal blow to Su Chengde. It would depend on whether luck was on his side.
