When Chen Zifeng followed Chief Gong to Simao Village and inspected the "goods" in Liang Jinkai's warehouse, he already knew that the Japanese were counterfeiting French currency! Liang Jinkai's "goods" were a forced counterattack!
Now listening to what Chief Luo said, he knew in his heart that the Japanese counterfeit legal currency may be flooding in the Kuomintang-controlled areas! Changsha is located on the front line, so there is no way to escape! With prices rising so fiercely, sooner or later there will be big problems.
!
He considered that it was best to plan this matter early! Otherwise, he would really suffer a big loss!

As soon as Chen Zifeng returned to the room in the guest house of the theater headquarters, he summoned several officers around him, including Lian Guozhang, into his room.
Now, he stared at them again and again, and said fiercely: "You can be sure that the Japanese are counterfeiting our legal tender and disrupting our market! Tell me! What should we do!"
Several officers looked at each other, but no one was speechless!
To be honest, there are almost no agents who understand economics! It seems that this has been the case at all times and in all countries!
They can do other things, follow and stalk, fight and kill, and do a little conspiracy and so on. When it comes to economic problems, price problems, and financial problems, they have nothing to do!
Even Xiao Ancheng, who was considered a thief, blinked and was speechless!
They discussed it until the end and came up with only one idea. They will go to the market to see it tomorrow!
At least one thing they all understand is that when prices rise like this, someone has to buy something and buy a lot for it to rise! Who the hell is buying it!

Sujia Lane, Wanfuju small restaurant.
Master Gao went out to do some shopping in the morning to prepare for today’s use, but he came back empty-handed!
As soon as he entered the door, he glared at Mazi and said, "You don't have enough money for me! The prices of everything have gone up today! A big increase! Noodles used to cost eight cents a pound, but now they cost 16 cents! A whole increase."
Times! Everything has gone up so much!”
Master Gao threw the big basket in his hand to the wall, but picked it up again and said, "Give me more money! If I don't buy the things back, I won't be able to open the store today!"
Mazi had nothing to say, so he took out a hundred yuan and handed it to him. But after thinking about it, he added another hundred yuan!
Master Gao nodded and walked to the door. When he reached the door, he turned back and said: "You Sichuan people bought it for you! The price has been increased!" After saying that, he walked away angrily.
Go shopping again!
But Mazi stood at the door of the kitchen, stunned for a long time!
Recently, prices have been rising, and Wanfu Curie's menu prices are also rising.
He didn't pay much attention to it before, but today Master Gao said that people from Sichuan are buying it! Let Mazi reconsider this matter!
Aren’t Boss Zhao’s people cleaning and digging in the ruins of Liwen Street every day? What’s going on, they are now doing business? But that’s not how business is done! Raising prices so high, he
Aren’t you afraid of compensation?
In Changsha, as long as it is related to Boss Zhao, it must be related to our money gang! Mazi must think so!
He thought about it for a moment, then called Shitou and Xiaochai to him and told them to quietly go to the vegetable market and take a look. Pay special attention to the Sichuan people who were shopping!
He said: "You two need to be more flexible and watch each other's backs so as not to get caught! You must also see clearly why those Sichuan people buy like this! Aren't they afraid of compensation?"
Shitou and Xiaochai put on tattered clothes, wiped their faces with ashes, and looked like beggars. Then they nodded to Mazi and left Wanfu Residence one after another!
Watching Shitou and Xiaochai walk away quietly, Mazi sat down and was thinking about a bigger problem!
Yes, their money gang took great risks and stole a huge sum of money! More than 40,000 yuan!
Anyone who hears this number will be stunned! But with the recent price increase, it has almost doubled! The huge amount of money they stole is not that much! I am afraid it will be discounted in half!
Damn it! We took such a big risk to steal this money, and now, half of it has been lost! After a few days, it won’t be worth much! Damn it! That’s called injustice!
But what to do! This is what he is thinking about now!

The closest vegetable market to Sujia Lane is the vegetable market outside the south gate of Renshu Hospital. But Erju and Mazi were both chased there by Boss Zhao's people, so they could no longer go there.
Shitou and Xiaochai followed each other and first went to the vegetable market at the West Lake Bridge Pier.
This vegetable market is close to the West Lake Bridge Pier. The largest commodities are vegetables, meat and eggs, and aquatic products, fish and shrimp, etc. are all brought by fishing boats!
Shitou and Xiaochai looked around and quietly inquired about the price. They saw that the price had indeed gone up a lot compared to before! Furthermore, the people buying vegetables around them were also complaining.
But they listened carefully and seemed not to hear a Sichuan accent.
They checked their eyes, then left the vegetable market and walked north. There was another market over there, which was a department store.
Although there are not many people in this market, the venue is larger than the vegetable market! There is everything from silk and linen cloth, clothing, shoes and hats, Wujinjiaodian, etc., etc., not only civil but also industrial machinery.
Equipment or something!
In the simple concept of stones and firewood, anything they can use is for civilian use. Anything they can't use is naturally for industrial use!
It was here that they heard a Sichuan accent! Not one person, but several fucking people!
The few Sichuan people they observed were scattered everywhere, buying almost everything they saw, and in large quantities!
Shitou and Xiaochai, both dressed in beggar's attire, could only sneak around and watch, but could not come forward to inquire.
But they heard two clerks talking quietly.
One said: "These Sichuan guys are crazy! They even bought it at such a high price!"
Another said: "I wonder where the price is higher! It's no good, they won't do it!"
Although Shitou and Xiaochai are only twelve or thirteen years old, the most basic and simple economic law is still clear! Goods go where the price is high! Wherever the price is high, the goods must be shipped!
Damn it! Where are they going to transport it! Even though prices in Chongqing are high, they are not this high!
Finally, Shitou and Xiaochai set their eyes on a Sichuanese at the same time!
His Sichuan accent is actually Chongqing dialect! Shitou and Xiaochai are very familiar with it! They looked at each other again and quietly made a gesture, ready to follow this person!
This Sichuan native with a Chongqing accent bought a large number of wires in a Wujijiaodian store. The wires were thick or thin, and they were all in bundles and trays!
He took out the wires and put them all on a cart! The cart was full!
With a final wave of his hand, the driver pulled up the cart and headed north.
Shitou and Xiaochai walked in tandem, swaying, swaying, looking here and there, looking around, just like little thieves. They were walking on both sides of the street, as if they were ready to steal something and then run away!
Walking to the north and passing Pozi Street, you will see a large freight terminal with many large warehouses there!
The truck stopped outside the door of a large warehouse.
The Sichuan man went directly into the warehouse. Within a moment, he followed another person out, it was Du Wancai!
Du Wancai held a paper clip in his hand and a pen in his ear. He walked to the cart and started counting, and then wrote it down on the paper clip. He waved to the person pulling the cart, and the cart came.
Was pulled into the warehouse.
Shitou stood not far away, staring straight at Du Wancai!
Du Wancai seemed to notice it, so he raised his head and stared at this dirty and black thief.
He suddenly turned around and shouted into the warehouse: "Come here! Come here! Catch this little bastard!"
Two strong men ran out of the warehouse. As soon as they saw the stone, they immediately rushed towards him!
Shitou ran away and rushed into the alley next to him in the blink of an eye, running like a wild cat in the narrow and winding alley.
The strong men also shouted and chased after them! They were not that dexterous. They either hit the wall when turning, or tripped over rocks and fell to the ground! They had to stop from time to time to identify the direction in which the children were escaping!
Just like that, they only chased for a few minutes and then gave up. The child had already disappeared!

The stone was like a little thief, looking back and forth, walking step by step through the dilapidated and simple houses, sometimes even stepping over the ruins after the fire, and walking forward cautiously.
Behind a broken wall, Xiao Chai showed his head and greeted him.
The stone cat silently jumped over the broken wall, squatted down at the base of the wall, and asked, "Did you find it?"
Xiaochai smiled and took out a small stack of banknotes from his arms and shook them in front of Shitou's eyes.
"Wow, you made it!" Shitou was surprised and took the banknote into his hand, looking back and forth.
"As soon as you attract Lao Du away, I will get in!"
"Is there anything else in there?"
"It's full of goods! It's piled high! It's full of goods. It has all kinds of goods! It's more complete than a department store!"
When Xiaochai described this, his eyes became a little crazy!

Sujia Lane, Wanfuju Restaurant.
It was late at night, and a small oil lamp was placed on the table, illuminating the children at the table.
Xiaoyan kept looking at Xiaochai with doubtful eyes, "Is it all goods?"
Xiaochai curled his lips and nodded vigorously to her, "It's all goods!" He shook his head and rolled his eyes. He seemed to have something to say, but couldn't think of what to say.
Xiaoyan asked him, "It's more complete than a department store? What do you mean?"
The words "department store" finally reminded Xiao Chai.
He blinked and said: "Department stores, they have everything, food and clothing, you know, they are all for food and clothing. The hardware stores are all made of iron. The clothing stores are all about clothes, shoes and hats.
.There are always some differences between these stores, Sister Yan, do you know what I mean?"
Xiaoyan nodded to him, "The products you mentioned are all classified, they are thiamine!"
Xiaochai shouted, "That's what it means! There is no classification in that warehouse, everything is there, everything! Everything is mixed together! There is another one, there are too many, piled high! Sister Yan, there are too many
