In fact, when it comes to gold, Chen Mingxiang does have a lot of gold in his hands. There are really not many individuals who have more gold than him. Financial institutions such as banks do not count, because Zhou Guojun's group happened to snatch a ton of gold from the Japanese. Three
More than 1,200 gold bars.
Why is this so? During the Republic of China, one pound was equal to sixteen taels, and a large gold bar weighed ten taels, which was equivalent to more than 310 grams, not the 500 grams as imagined.
This batch of gold has not been moved by Chen Mingxiang, and cannot be moved for the time being. The transactions are basically made with banknotes, and precious metals like gold are rarely used. Besides, it has the Jianghai Customs logo on it. If someone sees through it, it will be a big deal.
What a huge trouble, the Japanese are still obsessed with this batch of gold.
"I will find a way to get you two thousand large bars. This is black gold exchanged from Jianghai Customs of the Jinling Government. From now on, I will give you 70,000 tons of lake salt in two years in exchange, and half of it will be used as a reserve for you."
, half of which will be used to purchase food supplies for northern and southern Jiangsu in July. This is what must be done."
"I can use a car to transport a thousand large bars to the base area for you. You don't have to worry about this. However, the supply of salt to Chang'an Trading House must not be interrupted. Before August, the maximum is one thousand tons per month. After August, the supply of salt will be at most one thousand tons per month.
The monthly increase has increased to 3,000 tons or even 5,000 tons." Chen Mingxiang said.
When Zheng Tonghui heard these words, he stood up directly and looked very excited. Of course he knew how much convenience these two thousand gold bars could bring to the base area and underground party organizations. The Yanzhou base area now has twenty large yellow croakers.
I can’t even get it together!
What's more important is that Chen Mingxiang is showing his attitude. If he is not moving closer to the underground party, he only needs to exchange a hundred coins for the base area, and he can also win the gratitude of the base area.
"Comrade Mingxiang, thank you so much. I really don't know what to say. On behalf of the base area, I would like to thank you for your help. I will send electricity to my home later and report this matter to the leaders. I believe there will be no problems with this cooperation.
." Zheng Tonghui said.
There was a car parked under the streetlight diagonally across from Yunhua Restaurant. There were three people sitting in the car. They were Kitazawa Ping and two subordinates. Of course they were following Chen Mingxiang.
There was also a car parked in the alley more than two hundred meters away from the car. Zhou Guojun and a subordinate stood under the tree at the entrance of the alley and stared at the car.
"Director, we have investigated the owner of this restaurant. He is a local businessman in Shanghai. He used to run a bookstore and a printing factory. He has some status in the cultural world, but he does not show up much. Instead, he hired the general manager of a small newspaper.
I am the manager, and the business has been booming from the opening to now."
"The guests who come here to eat are basically people from the financial and industrial and commercial circles, as well as small bosses from the city government, social bureau, police station, security headquarters, and sometimes people from the military police headquarters and the Marine Corps headquarters.
I'll come over, it's rumored that Chen Mingxiang gets dividends from this restaurant." An intelligence officer named Takemoto said in a low voice.
Nariko Kojima has conducted a serious investigation on Chen Mingxiang. The information is all ready-made and has been carefully verified. The Japanese agents are more rigorous in doing things and are more professional than the agents of the Military Command Bureau.
"Have you ever investigated the private relationship between Chen Mingxiang and this boss, or this newspaper editor-in-chief who is the manager?" Kitazawa said calmly.
He was following Chen Mingxiang this time because he also wanted to see Chen Mingxiang's background, or the trajectory of his daily life. Often, a person's identity could be deduced from these details.
There is no doubt that Chen Mingxiang has a private connection with the Military Command Bureau, but it is difficult to say whether he is an agent of the Military Command Bureau. No evidence of the connection has ever been found.
Kitazawa had doubts about Chen Mingxiang, but he did not blindly draw conclusions. Kojima Nariko ended up being blackmailed because her actions were too direct.
"Of course I checked and found that Chen Mingxiang has no direct relationship with the owner of the restaurant, but has something to do with the editor-in-chief of this newspaper. This small newspaper has been established for a long time. The boss ran to the mountain city before the imperial army attacked Shanghai. The newspaper's
Sales are not good either, but the comments are not extreme."
"When Chen Mingxiang first had a fiancée named Lu Kunyu in Shanghai, his father-in-law was a foreign language professor at Fudan University and also his teacher. Lu Kunyu once worked as an intern reporter at this newspaper for a period of time, which is how he related."
"It's just that Chen Mingxiang's father-in-law's family, including his fiancée Lu Kunyu, moved to the United States the year before last. His uncle was studying in the United States. His current wife, Wang Zhen, met at the beginning of last year. Her uncle opened a business in the French Concession.
The textile factory, because of Chen Mingxiang, has been kept open, and the situation is not very good," Takemoto said.
"Has the identity of Chen Mingxiang's wife Wang Zhen been verified?" Bei Zeping asked.
"Director Kojima once used the intelligence personnel in the mountain city to conduct a detailed investigation on Wang Zhen. Her family was a noble family in Jinling in the past, and the personnel could be traced. Those who were officials in the mountain city were officials, and those who were doing business were
He is engaged in business and his family is very wealthy."
"There is no doubt about Wang Zhen's previous work at the Central Bank. For this reason, our intelligence officers also spent a lot of money to bribe her former colleagues to inquire." Takemoto replied.
Bei Zeping couldn't help but frowned. The resumes of Chen Mingxiang and the people around him were indeed impeccable, and there was no doubt at all. He had always been proud of the quality and professional abilities of the imperial intelligence personnel. If Chen Mingxiang was an agent of the Military Command Bureau, he would not be able to find any doubts at all.
Maybe nothing can be found.
"According to records, when the empire attacked Shanghai, Chen Mingxiang hid in Qimen, Anhui Province, and worked as a teacher for two years. As far as I know, the Military Command Bureau of the mountain city government once held training courses there. This matter has
Haven't you verified it?" Kitazawa asked without hope.
"This is also the focus of Director Kojima. This special training class is called Qingpu Special Training Class. It is the first large-scale training of special agents by the Military Command Bureau. After Chen Mingxiang joined the Secret Service Headquarters, the Secret Service Headquarters and the Special High School Division investigated him twice, especially
Nan Zao Yunzi from the Special Class One secretly investigated him three times, all targeting Qimen."
"The problem is that Chen Mingxiang's activities have been proven by so many people that it is impossible to participate in the special training class. Moreover, some students in the Qingpu special training class were also captured by the imperial intelligence department. Chen Mingxiang was never included in the list of students provided. These people
They belong to different classes, so you don’t need to work hard on this." Takemoto said with a smile.
As you can imagine, Nariko Kojima has already thought of it, and others have also thought of it. In other words, Chen Mingxiang has been secretly investigated from the time he joined the secret service headquarters to now, and no one can find any problems. Kitazawa Ping
I also gave up and it seems I can only start from other channels.
