Chapter 698 Sudden New Situation

"Mr. Chen, you are the patron saint of more than 7,000 British and American expatriates in the public concession. If you hadn't secretly provided support and help, everyone's life would have been unthinkable."

"We will try our best to help you solve part of the US dollar matter. We don't dare to ask for anything. We only hope that you can give more grain to the public concession. Rice, broken rice, corn, or flour and miscellaneous grains are all acceptable. Principle." Riddle said with a wry smile.

Chen Mingxiang now provides 15 tons of rice as rations for British and American expatriates in the public concession every month, and it is high-quality Suzhou rice.

The Japanese occupied the public concession and initially provided rice rations to the British and American expatriates. The standard was 0.7 liters per day, which was about one catty of rice. Later, it dropped to 0.6 liters, so that it could barely survive.

This year, on July 6th of the 31st year of the Republic of China, when the Japanese government officially began to ration the residents of the two concessions, it turned into a ration of one and a half liters of rice and half a liter of broken rice a week, equivalent to a daily ration. 0.3 liters, less than five taels of rice.

"I won't talk about the difficulty of transportation. I will try to provide you with 2,000 shi of grain every month, which is 105 tons, 50 tons of broken rice, 20 tons of rice, 5 tons of flour and 30 tons of cornmeal. This will keep the minimum survival requirements and start to implement it in September. You must give me time to prepare."

"To be honest, let alone one hundred tons of grain, one thousand tons of grain or even rice, I can also get it now. Unfortunately, the Japanese have too strict controls on food, and I can't do it too outrageously. This is also for you. Okay, I hope everyone can understand."

"In addition, I will give each household one catty of coarse salt, two catties of cane sugar, ten boxes of matches, and half a catty of tea per month. For the cotton cloth, you propose the quantity, and I will be responsible for the implementation."

"You just don’t exchange dollars for me, and I will try my best to help you. If one day comes, please bear witness to my behavior in the Shanghai stock market and prove to your respective governments that I have worked hard for the British and American citizens. "Chen Mingxiang said.

It is completely true. No one in the entire Shanghai stock market is like him. When the Japanese invaders fully gained the upper hand, they privately extended a helping hand to the British and American diasporas. Naturally, they also gained the infinite gratitude of these British and American diaspora. He is actually betting on his future.

For the committee and the Shancheng government, including Boss Dai from the Military Unification Bureau, they always believed that Britain and the United States were the biggest reliance. In such an environment, Chen Mingxiang took out his strategic vision and implemented his own plan.

This scarce resource cannot be wasted. Others want to help the British and American expatriates in the Shanghai stock market, but they must have enough!Besides, who can have such facilities like him, the Military Police Command and the Marine Corps Command turned a blind eye to his behavior?

Chen Mingxiang also gained amazing wealth in this process. Could this be a failure?

No, people who think like this don’t understand the way of thinking in the British and American countries, and they must be rewarded for their efforts. This is a reasonable and reasonable way of trading. Chen Mingxiang did not force everyone to do anything. On the contrary, he saved a lot of valuables for everyone. It is even memorable.

"Thank you Mr. Chen for his kindness. We don't even have words to describe our inner gratitude. We swear by our gods and our honor that we will always be best friends between us!"

"If there is a day of victory in the War of Resistance against Japan, all British and American citizens will highly praise your great contribution to the two governments. This is a promise!" Riddle said solemnly.

The black market price of grain in the Shanghai stock market is 800 yuan per stone of rice in the savings certificate. The price given by Chen Mingxiang is all the grains are packaged and settled at a market price of 600 yuan, and the monthly value of 2,000 shi grains is 1.2 million. China Reserve Certificates, equivalent to 60,000 US dollars.

The China Savings Voucher obviously does not have such a high currency value, but Chen Mingxiang provided salt, cane sugar, matches and tea, and he did not charge any money. For this reason, Riddle voluntarily added 5,000 US dollars and promised to exchange Chen Mingxiang for 650,000 US dollars. Foreign exchange.

"Minister, I need five telegraph operators here. Could you please transfer me five proficient students from the radio training class of our secret service headquarters, and I plan to send them to North China." Chen Mingxiang called Li Shiqun.

Learning to receive messages is not that easy. This is a highly professional job. Chen Mingxiang's most comfortable way is to draw people from the radio training class at the secret service headquarters.

Of course, this is not the first time. The radio operators used by the stations of the procurement stations in central China are all trained by the radio training class at the secret agent headquarters.

Regardless of the head office, local branch offices and purchase stations, they are all engaged in smuggling and pure commercial trade. There are no secrets at all. Chen Mingxiang is not afraid that these operators have Li Shiqun's eyes and ears.

Besides, those who can be qualified to be the heads of branches and acquisition stations are all mature and veteran managers. If they can't handle even a telegraph operator, that would be too incompetent.

"The operator we have is that I let Jinhui choose the best for you. Brother, if you don’t call me, I want to call you too. Shi Linsen gave the headquarters and said that since Huatong Trading Company’s business has expanded to North China In the region, he suggested that you be the head of the working group, and he and Wang Tianmu be your assistants." Li Shiqun said with a smile.

"These two guys are good calculations. I want me to be in the front and carry the thunder of the secret service and gendarmerie in the North China region for the mission?"

"Minister, you also know my situation. I go to North China at most twice a month. The Shanghai stock market is inseparable, and I have to go outside the customs. How can I help them with each other?"

"Furthermore, you know why this is the case. The local faction can't see any foreign forces intervene. Even if it's me, it's at best to confuse it. It has no practical meaning." Chen Mingxiang also smiled.

Of course he knew what was going on. The so-called North China Special Agent Task Force at the Secret Service Headquarters was very unpopular in North China. Shi Linsen and Wang Tianmu could naturally feel this hostile attitude.

These two did not have the guts to deal with the Japanese spies and military police forces in North China, so they pushed themselves out as a shield. They played a wishful thinking. Lao Tzu's advantage was so good?

"Don’t rush outside. I’ll give you a top-secret message. I got it ten minutes ago. Hey, I’ve forgotten. General Kinoshita of the Gendarmerie Headquarters in Shanghai will definitely notify you later. As for the secret service and gendarmerie system in Central China, there is nothing to say about top secrets."

"That's it. The secret service agencies outside the customs and inside the customs also have the gendarmerie system. The day after tomorrow will hold a secret meeting in the Shanghai stock market. This opportunity is very rare. You can get to know the real power figures outside the customs and get familiar in advance. A lot of help." Li Shiqun said with a smile.
