Huang Wenmai is Haigu's accountant and Lu Chengzhou's accountant.
All the funds for Haigu Station are in his hands.
After Lu Chengzhou became the station director, although the funds of Haigu Station were not deducted, the channels for capital exchange between Chongqing and Haigu were no longer smooth.
Especially after the British Concession was forced to use joint bank notes, Bank of China and Bank of Communications were no longer able to do business with Chongqing, and it was difficult to remit funds from Chongqing.
The headquarters has also said before that Haigu Station should be self-reliant and strive to solve the problem on its own.
If we can help Akiyama Yoshio sell some military supplies, it will greatly ease the financial difficulties of Haigu Station.
"Yes, as long as you have money, you can even sell it to the Eighth Route Army." Ma Yuzhen also said.
"Even if we sell it to the Eighth Route Army, they probably won't be able to get the money out of it," Fang Nansheng continued.
These military supplies are urgently needed by the Eighth Route Army.
However, the Eighth Route Army's life was difficult and it was difficult to support themselves. Logistics relied entirely on seizures.
"As long as you give money, you don't need to ask about the other party's identity." Lu Chengzhou finally concluded that as long as it is detrimental to the Japanese, the military commander can do it.
Even if the Eighth Route Army bought it, Haigu Station would turn a blind eye.
"What's the price?" Fu Qi asked. He has a trading house at Dahongqiao Wharf. If there is really a transaction, it must be him.
"It's at least half of the market price, or even lower." Lu Chengzhou said firmly.
Both Akiyama Yoshio and Juntong were generous to the Japanese. As long as they could be exchanged for money, it didn't matter how much.
Lu Chengzhou felt that he could even buy military supplies from the Japanese military warehouse on Si Jing Road at a discount of 10% of the market price.
Lu Chengzhou lost contact with the organization, and the matter could only be resolved through Fang.
He believed that Fang Nansheng would definitely report the matter to the Haigu City Committee.
Lu Chengzhou's prediction was correct. After the meeting, Fang Nansheng quickly got in touch with Gu Sanshi.
"Secretary Gu, this is our opportunity." Fang Nansheng said excitedly after introducing the situation.
"It is indeed an opportunity." Gu Sanshi said thoughtfully, but there was a hint of worry on his resolute face.
Even at a 50% discount, the prices of these military supplies are not cheap.
He was not interested in riding boots, but he was really interested in the 200,000 boxes of shoes, more than 10,000 rifles, and millions of rounds of ammunition.
"Lu Chengzhou put Fu Qi and Huang Wenmai in charge. As long as he contacts Fu Qi, he can place an order at any time." Fang Nansheng reminded.
"The organization's funds are relatively difficult. It is currently very difficult to come up with such a large amount of money." Gu Sanshi shook his head gently. In front of Fang Nansheng, he did not need to hide anything.
"This is all my savings." Fang Nansheng took out an envelope, which contained all the money he had saved.
Fang Nansheng's salary in the military command was good, and he also received bonuses, so he had little expenses.
It can be said that he handed over almost all the money he earned from military command to the organization.
"This money of yours is just a drop in the bucket, so you should keep it for yourself." Gu Sanshi glanced at the envelope and saw that there were several thousand yuan, but it was really nothing compared to the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shoes.
As for guns and bullets, they are even more valuable. Fang Nansheng's money can buy more than a dozen guns, plus thousands of rounds of bullets, which is enough to arm a squad.
"Are you just going to watch so many supplies being burned?" Fang Nan asked anxiously.
"What is Yoshio Akiyama's attitude towards the Communist Party?" Gu Sanshi asked.
"I don't know, Lu Chengzhou wanted him to go to Chongqing, but he just wanted to go back to Japan. If he had a lot of money, he would probably go to the United States." Fang Nansheng said casually.
War has broken out in Europe, and it is no longer safe to go there. The most desirable place in the world right now may be the only one in the United States.
"You should go back first. I will report this matter to my superiors," Gu Sanshi said.
Since Akiyama Yoshio does not want to participate in the war, it shows that his thoughts are anti-Japanese.
If possible, Gu Sanshi hoped to do the work of Yoshio Tong Akiyama and ask him to voluntarily transfer the materials from the Fourth Military Warehouse to support the Chinese people's war of resistance.
However, Akiyama Yoshio's thoughts were not as enlightened as Gu Sanshi imagined.
He has neither a good impression nor any ill will towards the Communist Party.
The people Gu Sanshi sent to contact him came back in disgrace.
Akiyama Yoshio still said the same thing, if you want supplies, buy them with money.
Otherwise, he would rather burn all supplies than give the CCP a pair of shoes or a bullet.
Anti-war and anti-war are two different things. Although they are both dissatisfied with Japan, anti-war people just don't want to go to the battlefield. As long as they can return to Japan, they can have a shootout with the military police.
But it is impossible for them to join the Chinese army or assist the Chinese army in dealing with the Japanese army.
In other words, these anti-war soldiers have no ideological awareness and are very selfish.
Of course, it can also be said that they are not true anti-war soldiers, because true anti-war soldiers have completely broken with the Japanese Communist Party.
Although Lu Chengzhou did not meet Cheng Ruian, he intervened in Shao Longge's interrogation.
Cheng Ruian was not tortured, and his hot temper was not aroused.
After he was taken to the gendarmerie detachment, Cheng Ruien's "brother" Chen Xin approached the gendarmerie detachment in the evening.
Chen Xin threatened that if the military police detachment did not release the man, he would go to the Ministry of Industry Bureau to argue and report the matter to the newspaper.
The newspapers in the urban area are all under Japanese control, but there are still a few newspapers in the concession.
Moreover, there are foreign reporters.
"Chen Xin" works at HSBC and can definitely do it.
Cheng Ruien looked at his "brother" and almost revealed his secret.
"Brother, are you okay?" Chen Xin took the initiative to say hello after seeing Cheng Ruien.
When he saw Cheng Ruien's photo, he recognized him at a glance.
"It's okay." Cheng Ruien said calmly when he saw Chen Xin.
He didn't recognize Chen Xin. The less he said at this time, the safer he would be.
"If someone touches you, tell me." Chen Xin said with concern.
Chen Xin behaved very forcefully, and Shao Longge's original suspicion of Cheng Rui'ien was reduced a lot. In addition, Lu Chengzhou was very dissatisfied with his arrest, and Cheng Rui'i finally left the military police unit smoothly.
"Who are you?" Cheng Ruien asked immediately after leaving the military police unit and getting into a car with Chen Xin.
"This is my job, just come out." Chen Xin smiled and did not answer Cheng Ruien's question.
After sending Cheng Ruian back to the Lishun Hotel, Chen Xin left.
Cheng Ruian was very confused. He came out inexplicably and had a so-called brother. Who arranged all this?
Of course he didn't know that in order to rescue him, Lu Chengzhou and Ma Yuzhen secretly joined forces.
Cheng Ruien was lying on the bed. When he lifted the quilt, he found a letter under the quilt. The handwriting on it was very familiar to him. It was still "Yours truly, Chen Ren."
The handwriting was as ugly as last time, and Cheng Ruian knew that it was written by the same person.
