Chen Mingxiang's job in the enemy-occupied areas is to constantly weave a network. Now it is getting bigger and bigger, and he has unimaginable huge resources. To put it harshly, he is robbing money. Mobile version
Using the resources outside the Pass, North China, and Central China as his own bargaining chips, and using the Japanese army, the Wang Puppet Government, and the Military Command Bureau as his channels, money is not a problem for him.
As he amassed more and more wealth through smuggling, he felt a little awkward. Looking at the current development situation, he was about to become a big capitalist.
Although it was for the purpose of obtaining funds for the Military Command Bureau and because of the needs of the mission, so many factories were opened one after another, but Chen Mingxiang knew well that even if the war was victorious, the Military Command Bureau could not take over these industries casually.
As a military espionage agency, we cannot engage in industry in a big way. It will offend the interests of the big families in the mountain city government and the big capitalists, and even lead to a situation where the public is criticized. This kind of thing is taboo. As for those short-term and quick-turn smuggling that makes huge profits.
In the trading industry, you can get involved.
Even so, Boss Dai will never give Chen Mingxiang's factories to other forces. The Military Command Bureau needs money very much. If it doesn't have money, it won't even be able to do anything. It will definitely use various methods to preserve this financial source.
The best solution is that the factory is still owned by Chen Mingxiang, but the Military Command Bureau withdraws a portion of the profits as its own funds.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese and puppet assets across the country were countless fat, and the major forces would not quarrel with the Military Command Bureau just because of this.
"I understand what you mean. I build the plank road secretly in Chen Cang. I use the expansion of the network of relationships and auxiliary tasks as reasons to create my own gratitude and gratitude to the Japanese invaders, create an atmosphere in which the interests of the Wang Puppet Government are shared, and create a small way for me to gain fame.
You are trying to deceive Boss Dai and the big bosses of the mountain city government with your little tricks. This method is more clever than I thought." Wang Zhen said with his eyes shining.
"Smart, you are worthy of me. My logical reasoning ability has improved a lot, and my thinking has actually kept up with me, but it's still a little bit behind, and I haven't found the core."
"Don't forget that I have spent so much resources and efforts to deliberately build relationships with British and American expatriates in the public settlement. This protective umbrella can withstand all pressures within the mountain city government, even pressures from high-level officials. This is what I am."
The real trump card!”
"If I don't go to the British and American countries and want to continue living in China, I have to abide by Boss Dai's family rules. If he wants to protect me, he has to give me an excuse, even if it's just an excuse." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
He chose to create an illusion and implement a strategy to not make himself stand out, mainly to deal with Boss Dai, and secondly to show off to other forces. He also wanted to get involved in the Military Command Bureau!
The only way to achieve this goal is to spend money. For two million U.S. dollars, he can make four million U.S. dollars of false accounts!
But Boss Dai can't say that he is wrong. Without Chen Mingxiang's economic skills, how could there be so many vital military top secrets? How could the Military Command Bureau have been able to sustain it until now?
At least 30% of the position of the Military Command Bureau in the mountain city government was obtained by Chen Mingxiang, because the old man was very satisfied with the performance of the Military Command Bureau and did not dare to say anything else. This was indeed the case in terms of intelligence.
"You have many evil intentions, but I have to admit that this is a good move. From the appointment to Boss Dai, you have absolute respect for the British and American countries. As long as these British and American expatriates speak for you, the attitudes of the two governments will be different."
It's very clear, I heard that the head of state is elected." Wang Zhen said with a smile.
Concern leads to chaos. She really didn't think of Chen Mingxiang's plan for a moment, and she can't blame her. The two of them were talking about things after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, and they were on the condition of continuing to work in the Military Command Bureau. It's understandable that they didn't think carefully.
.
In fact, I feel a little reluctant to resort to this method to protect myself, and it is a double-edged sword that may cut myself. It cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary.
"Haiyuan Salt Company Chang'an Trading House, how far has it progressed now?" Chen Mingxiang asked.
"I picked a manager, an accountant, a telegraph operator and four clerks and went to Chang'an. Before I left, I carefully explained that I would only do what I was supposed to do. I could not see or hear anything outside of the business. If anything happened, I would use the radio and
I contact."
"Because the journey is quite long, they have just arrived in Chang'an. They had to take a boat to the mountain city first and then fly there. Otherwise, they would not have been able to get there at all. The bureau headquarters called me and Chang'an Station has already contacted them."
"The trading house is ready. The station has provided us with a location and accommodation, and put up a sign. According to Boss Dai's instructions, twenty American transport trucks and two Ford cars were specially allocated to the trading house. The drivers are veteran recruits.
The drivers and family resumes have been reviewed one by one, but they are not from Chang'an Station. They are paid by the trading house, and the car is also an asset of the Military Command Bureau, and we only have the right to use it."
"Sun Dingzhong, the purchasing specialist for the Jiangbei region of Huatong Trading Company, arrived in Chang'an in advance. He has been responsible for contacting the Yanzhou base area for gasoline sales and is relatively familiar with it. He will contact the Yanzhou base area for salt shipment and settlement," Wang Zhen said.
"Boss Dai's efficiency in engaging in internal fighting is unprecedentedly high. He has really taken great pains to deal with the Yanzhou base!"
"Okay, it's their business to do what they like, so we don't have to worry about it. We ask the trading houses to seize the time to contact the salt merchants in the Kuomintang-controlled area to transport the lake salt from Yanzhou as soon as possible to alleviate the lack of salt and the high price of salt for the people in the southwest.
pain of."
"Unfortunately, the output of lake salt in the Yanzhou base is still too small. It is only more than 20,000 tons a year. I have to keep some of it for exchange for supplies and food. I estimate that 16,000 tons is the limit. Each load sells for 100 yuan in French currency.
That’s two thousand yuan in French currency per ton, how much is that?” Chen Mingxiang said.
The price of salt in the Kuomintang-controlled areas has skyrocketed. In Sichuan Province, it is still more than 200 yuan per quintal, because of the support of well salt. However, in the Kuomintang-controlled areas of Guangdong Province, the price of salt has reached more than 500 yuan per quintal, with the highest price reaching more than 700 yuan.
"You mean, you plan to subsidize the finances of the Yanzhou base area?" Wang Zhen asked.
"Since I have made up my mind to spend money, I will also give them some discounts. Calculated at 150 yuan in legal currency per load, I will give more than 8 million legal currency. If I make less, it is impossible to lose money.
But I don’t care, if the base area receives more money, it can do a lot of things," Chen Mingxiang said.
Indeed, based on his current income situation, the expenditure of more than 8 million French currency will not cause much loss to him and is completely affordable.
Don't forget, when these 16,000 tons of salt were shipped to the Kuomintang-controlled area, he wholesaled it at a price of 180 yuan per load and no more than 200 legal currency per load. If it was empty in the blink of an eye, he would not lose money.
But I can’t make any money even if I calculate it. The labor cost is not much, it’s mainly the cost of transportation. Vehicles need to burn gasoline. There is a surplus for short-distance transportation in Shaanxi Province. If you transport it to Sichuan Province, you will be slightly compensated. Once the costs of both sides are combined,
