Smuggling salt from the underground party's base at the border of Shaanxi, Long and Gansu provinces will inevitably touch Boss Dai's nerves. This is a huge hidden danger. If you want to eliminate the suspicion from the top, you must take practical actions.
In the name of spying on intelligence, they are actually smuggling salt. Chen Mingxiang believes that this method is the best solution at present.
As his assistant, he took advantage of the mountain city government's fear of the underground party and its eagerness to eradicate it. It was almost impossible for his plan to encounter resistance.
The wonderful thing is that he secretly infiltrated Chen Cang on the plank road. On the surface, this is creating opportunities for the bureau headquarters. Chen Mingxiang wants to use the salt business as a channel to help the agents from the bureau headquarters infiltrate into the base area.
Why doesn’t Chen Mingxiang do it himself?
First of all, the power of the directly affiliated stations has been dispersed to Central China, North China and outside the customs. There are no redundant personnel to penetrate this base area, and I am still too busy!
Secondly, I am considering my own safety. It is easy to cause problems if you stretch your hands too far. The direct-affiliated station is only a part of the Military Command Bureau. There is no need to worry too much. There is also a sense of territory and competition internally. I believe Boss Dai will understand.
of.
"The trouble is that our salt company smuggles salt from the underground party's base area, which will bring a large amount of financial revenue or daily necessities to the other party. Will Boss Dai be unhappy about this? Will he be unhappy with you?
What impact will it have?" Wang Zhen asked with some doubts.
Boss Dai is the mountain city government or the biggest spy chief in China. There is no doubt about his own ability and intelligence. The military command organizations around the base area are also no strangers. Chen Mingxiang's profit from smuggling salt will definitely not be a secret over time.
She naturally knew Boss Dai's attitude towards the underground party. Although the Kuomintang-controlled areas were extremely short of salt, it would be a different matter if the salt was transported from the base area.
With the trust that Chen Mingxiang enjoys at the moment, there will be no severe punishment. However, if Boss Dai thinks that he is greedy and ignores the overall situation, and actually cooperates with the base area for money, it will be a loss-making business.
"I have now figured out Shangfeng's way of thinking. As long as you are dealing with the underground party, there are no taboos. Even if you do something outrageous, not only will you not be severely punished, but you will be reused. I was almost captured alive by the 111 Division.
Miao Chengliu is the best example."
"The reason why we smuggle salt from the base area is not to make money, but to get familiar with the underground party. This is the most common cover behavior. As for profit from the sale of salt, that is incidental and secondary."
"Actually, Boss Dai is very happy to see my business take off. Salt is a scarce commodity in the Kuomintang-controlled area, which means a lot of profits and stable income. Although he is loyal to the old man, he also has selfish motives. I dare to say so.
From beginning to end, he acquiesced and would not have any attitude."
"You may not understand the financial situation of the bureau headquarters. It is very bad right now. The normal monthly consumption of more than 40,000 people is several million. Now is the most difficult time for the bureau headquarters' finances. No matter how trusted Boss Dai is, the old man
Nor will the Military Command Bureau be allowed to print legal currency."
"Don't worry, as long as we make money from transporting salt into the Kuomintang-controlled areas and the bureau headquarters receives the much-needed funds, everything will be calm," Chen Mingxiang said.
There were some things he didn't want to say to Wang Zhen. Boss Dai had developed the Military Command Bureau to such a scale not only for the need of resisting Japan, but also for his own preservation.
The Military Command Bureau does not want to be the last force to be defeated. Facing old men with sophisticated methods, only a few big warlords, such as the Gui clan, dare to have such thoughts.
Boss Dai is still a major general, which shows the old man's intentions. He gives you power but does not give you a chance to step out of the circle, so as not to become a potential threat.
Boss Dai has no power in the military and has far more enemies than friends. In the final analysis, he is just a spy chief and has no qualifications to challenge the old man's authority.
In this case, the Military Command Bureau is a sharp sword used to frighten internal enemies. Anyone who dares to reach out to Boss Dai will chop off the enemy's hand.
"Then when do you plan to report this plan to the bureau headquarters?" Wang Zhen asked.
In fact, the direct-affiliated station did not make much profit from this important action plan. The biggest beneficiary was definitely Chen Mingxiang. She felt very happy to be able to participate in this matter and operate it personally, which also showed her status in Chen Mingxiang's mind.
Girls often don’t ask for much. Being able to do something for the man they love brings them great satisfaction and happiness. Otherwise, how can we say that love is blind?
"We are not in a hurry about this matter. The work at Changlu Salt Farm has not yet started. This is our top priority. When I come back from outside the customs, we will talk about the issue of smuggling salt in the base area. I have to let the bureau headquarters get a taste of selling salt.
, I can’t bear to part with this piece of fat, it will be easy to deal with next.”
"This afternoon I went to the Social Affairs Bureau to register the salt company and the coal company. Then I asked the Military Police Headquarters to ask for two sets of office buildings of foreign companies as the company's headquarters. I also asked when transport planes would arrive outside the customs." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
.
As the deputy director of the Social Affairs Bureau, he is in charge of Shanghai's industry and commerce. This is too simple. He writes an application himself, signs and approves it, and then files it. As a result, Yuchang Coal Company and Haiyuan Salt Company were released in half an hour.
.
The original British and American banks on the main road in the public concession were all confiscated by the Military Police Headquarters and the Marine Corps Headquarters. Most of them were given to Japanese businessmen for business, but the Military Police Headquarters kept some of them as mobile quotas. When they heard Chen Mingxiang's need,
Kinoshita Sakae City generously assigned two houses to him.
These confiscated foreign companies have been registered with the Central China Liaison Department of Xingyayuan. They are the property of the empire and cannot be transferred or sold to outsiders. The Military Police Headquarters does not do business, so why do they need so many properties?
"The transport plane to the outside of the customs is actually not a problem. I contacted the transport brigade of the Thirteenth Army and it is easy to send one to you alone. As the commander of the military police stationed in Shanghai, I still have this power."
"The situation outside the Pass is different from that inside the Pass. The situation outside the Pass is completely the territory of the Kwantung Army and Manchukuo. It belongs to two countries and two political powers with the Jinling government."
"Before you go, it's best to find a reliable relationship with Manchukuo who has considerable identity and status and can support you. Go find Mr. Matsui Tataro. He just returned to Shanghai yesterday. If you want to be more generous, he
I will give you enough reward."
"As for the artillery commander Yingzuo Zhenzhao, you can see that he is fine, but he won't have much effect on your business outside the customs."
"Here at the Kwantung Army Military Police Headquarters, I will greet the commander, Major General Hara Mori. They are all people from the Tokyo Military Police Headquarters, so we have some friendship."
"It is enough for you to visit him on my behalf with my handwritten letter to protect the safety of you and the industry outside the customs. I said that the military police system is the most united," Kinoshita Eichi said with a smile.
