Wind spy

"Chen Jun, now that the North China Liaison Department has solved the coal problem, I have to ask you about the manufacturing of briquettes. The current situation is very urgent. You have to use all the resources, shorten the preparation time as much as possible, and ship the goods to Shanghai as soon as possible. The city lowered coal prices."

"When I return to the Shanghai stock market, I will report to the headquarters of Xingya Institute to apply for low-price coal sales subsidies for you. In addition, if you encounter any difficulties in the production and transportation process, you can report to Jun Yan Ze at any time, and he will help you. Coordinated."

"I have been worried about the past few days. I can't eat well and sleep well. I'm afraid that there will be some big trouble in the Shanghai stock market. That will add a dishonorable record to the rest of China." Taiji Ota said.

Now that a solution to the coal shortage has been found, the next step is to implement it. As the head of the Central China Liaison Department, Taiji Ota still has a lot of work in the Shanghai stock market and cannot stay in Beiping for too long.

On the morning of the second day after coming to Peking, the three people discussed the details of the briquettes price war in the office of the North China Liaison Department. They sorted out every detail. After lunch, they went to the airport and prepared to take a transport plane back to the Shanghai market. .

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, I will complete the task assigned to me by the Xingya Institute at any cost. I will rush to Jincheng the day after tomorrow and make preparations for production in advance. After a few days, the machine will be transported to Jincheng and the coal will arrive at the port by train. Station, I immediately organized and started to make briquettes." Chen Mingxiang said.

"Your Excellency, the North China Liaison Department must give full support to Chen Jun’s work. I have coordinated the train from Phoenix to Jincheng Port without delaying the transportation plan. Jincheng’s electric power department has also greeted Chen Junxuan. In a good place, electricity will provide protection in the shortest time." Yanze Qingxuan said.

Solving the coal shortage problem, protecting the social order of the Shanghai stock market, and safeguarding the interests of the empire are the tasks assigned by the headquarters of the Xingya Institute to the Central China Liaison Department and the North China Liaison Department. Therefore, Yanze Qingxuan is very cooperative.

The North China Liaison Department found two residences for Chen Mingxiang, both of which were large courtyard houses near Shichahai. It is said that they had some origins in the past. They were the residences of Qing dynasty officials. In the Republic of China, the family fell in decline and sold them to British and American merchants.

However, as the situation became tense, the two foreigners had already returned to China, leaving only a few guards. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese army cleared the assets of British and American businessmen, and the two large courtyards were used by the North China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute. After taking over, it didn't actually play a role, and it was idle.

"The two houses, the big one at Yindingqiao, you decorate me carefully, return to the original colors, and find old craftsmen to restore the Ming and Qing styles, as my residence when I came to Beiping, and the other as the company’s senior It’s the dormitory that I manage, and I can save myself to find a place."

"When I'm fine, by the way, help me collect some furniture and objects made of yellow rosewood, as well as antique porcelain. In Peking, these things are not lacking." In the afternoon, Chen Mingxiang went to the famous Yan'er Hutong to take a look. residence.

The area is indeed quite impressive. The large set has more than 3,000 square meters, and the small one has more than 1,000 square meters. The appearance still retains the style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but unfortunately, the interior has been transformed into a mess. , The aesthetics of British and American businessmen is too anxious.

"Boss, I have found a more suitable office location on Wangfu Street in the past two days. The tea shop is going to be located in Bamiancao, and the silk and satin store is located in Wangfujing Street. They are all talking about the price and the location. It's the best location in Peking." Yang Junchu said.

Wangfujing Street was not called that way during the Beiyang government. When the Ministry of Internal Affairs drew the "Detailed Map of Peking", it divided this street into three sections.

The north street is called Wangfu Street, the middle section is called Bamiancao, and the south section is called Wangfujing Street. After a long time, gradually the dishes gradually use Wangfujing to call the whole street.

"Wangfu Street is the most prosperous place in Peiping. It is indeed the best choice. Go, take me to see and buy some cars from a German foreign company. This is also a way to support the facade. I will find an opportunity to ask the North China Liaison Department. In the British and American assets they confiscated, some cars should have been confiscated." Chen Mingxiang said.

"Boss, when we register a company in Beiping, do we still pay taxes to the Beiping Finance Bureau?" Yang Junchu asked.

Huatong Trading Company has not paid a penny in the Shanghai stock market from its opening to the present. It is backed by the military police headquarters in Shanghai. Chen Mingxiang is a senior official and celebrity of the municipal government. The tax department regards the company as a restricted area. Has always been hiding, who has eaten Xiongxinbaozi, dare to collect his tax?

"Pay the tax, if the tax department dares to collect taxes, you can ask them to go to the North China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute to find Major General Yanze Qingxuan. Our company is a military management enterprise of the Gendarmerie Command in Shanghai, and now it is the Xingya Institute. Effective, dare to collect my taxes, the Secretary of Finance does not want to be?"

"Tonight is just going to have dinner with the president of the United Preparatory Bank. I will mention this casually and let him say hello. By the way, the North China Liaison Department will allocate 10 million Union Bank coupons to us. I have already received the transfer slip. , You go to the head office tomorrow to go through the formalities." Chen Mingxiang said with a curl of his lips.

The most important staff system of the North China Dispatch Command of the Japanese Army is divided into four courses. The chiefs are all with the rank of Grand Commander. The first course is responsible for combat, which is also the most important core department of the command.

The second lesson is the intelligence department in charge of Qingqi Qingyin, which is second only to combat in importance. The third lesson is in charge of communications and transportation, and the fourth lesson is in charge of government affairs. The director is called Otsuji Nishimura.

The fourth lesson has extraordinary energy for the personnel arrangements of the entire occupied North China. If the personnel appointment and removal of the pseudo-government cannot be supported by the fourth lesson, it is almost ineffective.

However, in the ranking of the headquarters, the fourth class is at the bottom. Even if the seat is arranged in a meeting, the fourth class leader must be behind the other three.

"Wang Sang, Chen Jun and I are old friends in the Shanghai stock market. This time Huatong Trading Company entered North China to do business and opened a branch in Beiping. It was also invited by me. Chen Jun has always done things without letting his friends. Suffering, I think you should be able to get along very harmoniously." Qingqi Qingyin said with a smile.

Last night Chen Mingxiang invited him to this banquet. Considering that Wang Shijing is not only a high-ranking official of the North China Political Affairs Committee, but the key is that he holds financial power, he promised to give the other side a face.

More importantly, he has to support Chen Mingxiang, who originally invited Chen Mingxiang to expand his business to North China. Since they are here, he can't just sit back and wait for the pie in the sky.

Qingqi Qingyin is not the same as the arrogant staff of the staff headquarters. He is a major spy who has played a heavyweight role. He knows the importance of mastering resources and has no bargaining chips in his hand. What can he do with Chen Mingxiang?
