"Mingxiang, you have been operating in the enemy-occupied area and the Kuomintang-controlled area for many years, and you have a closer relationship with all forces. You have to find a way to do this. The transportation between our group and Yanzhou is basically done by people, for example Disassemble the goods into parts, or bring some small goods."

"If you want to use this method for finished pieces of cotton, one thousand pieces of cloth will be more than 30,000 horses. Too many people are needed and it takes too long. It is also a problem to be discovered." Zheng Tonghui said.

Chen Mingxiang nodded. He also knows the difficulties of Zheng Tonghui and the Shanghai underground party organization. The key is that Yanzhou is an inland area. It would be easier if it is by the sea. The underground party always has something to do with it and uses ships to transport cotton cloth. go back.

But there is no need to think about long-distance land transportation. There are not too many vehicles and no trains. There are dozens of checkpoints set up by the puppet army, the Japanese army and the Shancheng government army along the way.

"It seems that there is only one way to turn salt into money. You can buy cloth with the money. There are some ways to operate in Shaanxi Province, right?" Chen Mingxiang said.

Salt is a scarce material, and many people make ideas. Officials and the military from the local Shancheng government, and even the offices of the Central Unification Bureau and the Military Unification Bureau secretly participate.

Their purpose is of course not to benefit the people in the Kuomintang Control Area, but to use salt for their own benefit. Money is the first thing. Chen Mingxiang gives the equivalent legal currency and sends people from the base area to various places to purchase. After the transportation link, it is the most secure and safe method.

"It seems that there is only this way. When you come back from outside the customs, you can open a trading bank in Chang'an as soon as possible. We will prepare salt for you. The folks urgently need cotton cloth for cotton clothes." Zheng Tonghui said.

He is also a little unwilling. This operation will cause a certain loss. Chen Mingxiang’s price for the base area is the wholesale price, because he owns a textile factory, but the local purchase in Shaanxi Province is based on the market price. The difference in the price is a large amount. What about the money!

"That's OK, you make a list of other goods, I will send a car to you, and I will send someone to Chang'an to prepare for the trading house tomorrow morning. When I come back, the business can start to operate." Chen Mingxiang said.

"Unfortunately, your identity is too sensitive. Otherwise, I really want to invite you to the base area. The chiefs also hope to talk to you." Zheng Tonghui asked with a smile.

"I think there is no chance at the moment. By the way, I almost forgot. You have to record a few pieces of international intelligence. Japan will adjust its strategy against the Jinling government. On December 20, Wang Jingwei will Visiting Japan again, the specific content is as follows..."

That night, Taiji Ota came to Mara Villa for dinner, and he also brought a bill of lading for 30,000 pieces of cotton cloth, which may be due to his conversion to a military position. He had a good chat, drank a lot of rice wine, and talked about Shanghai stock market. The inside story of the Japanese businessman also talked about some inside story of the army, which broadened Chen Mingxiang's vision. These words could not be bought with money, and he did not leave until after 11 o'clock.

Of course Ota Taiji did not empty-handed when he left. Chen Mingxiang gave two tea gift boxes and a porcelain gift box. The boxes were all wooden and he held them heavily in his hands. He carefully placed them on the back seat of the car, not in the trunk. in.

"It's really distressing. I will give him half a million dollars in cash, 100,000 dollars worth of gold and jewelry. These are all the blood and sweat of China!" Wang Zhen returned to the living room and said.

"Although the value of the U.S. dollar is high, it is not circulated in Japan. It is exchanged for hundreds of thousands of U.S. dollars. It is pure death, and can only be temporarily stored for later operation. But gold and jewelry are different. They can be exchanged for For the yen, now that things are done, we must do our best. This is not the time to feel sorry for money."

"Tomorrow, I will go outside the customs. I will have a big harvest this time. According to the agreement with the Kwantung Army Command, the strategic materials need to be paid for half of the gold and US dollars. Look at it. When the plane lands, the home will be at least one more. One and a half million dollars and five hundred gold bars." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

Both the US dollar and gold are used for value preservation, and they are not circulated in the market. But when you really need money, you can exchange it immediately. A large gold bar of 25,000 yuan in the China Reserve Bank of China is available at any time at any branch of the Bank of China. Exchange, let alone dollars.

"Mingxiang, I think there is too much foreign exchange at home, and it is inevitable that people will be pegged. If the Anti-Japanese War is victorious, is it necessary to save a part of it abroad? By the way, I will buy some properties in the United Kingdom and the United States. Do it all," Wang Zhen said.

Wang Zhen is not greedy for money, but is affected by the current environment. At the same time, she is also planning for her future life.Women's minds are different from men's. These words are full of longing for home. They are normal for ordinary girls, but they are not appropriate for female agents.

Fortunately, she was thinking about what would happen after the victory of the War of Resistance against Japan. This made Chen Mingxiang more relieved and did not care about this kind of psychological activity. It is human nature to desire a better life. As long as it does not affect work, there is no need to deliberately correct it.

For the second time outside the pass, the people who came to pick up the plane at the airport also reflected the value of Chen Mingxiang. They actually related to Lieutenant General Yukio Kasahara, Chief of Staff and Supply Supervisor of the Eastern Army Headquarters, Major General Yoshitake Furuno, and Chief of Staff Kiyohide Takada. Takeda Kodai, the chief of the Second Division of Staff of the Osawa Headquarters.

"I can't believe that the generals came to work. The specifications are too high, I can't afford it!" Chen Mingxiang said while shaking hands with these people.

"Chen Jun kept his promise. The time was originally set at the end of December, but you completed the delivery of all materials in early November. Yingkou Port has completed the inventory, and it is not bad at all. You deserve our high-standard reception. Please get on the bus! "Lieutenant General Yukio Kasahara said with a smile.

Everyone is willing to cooperate with people who keep their promises, Huatong Trading Company or Chen Mingxiang, this is very good, except that the price is higher, the rest is perfect, of course, this is not a shortcoming, no money Why do people engage in these risky transactions?

It is impossible for Chen Mingxiang to monopolize the materials exchanged and the payment received. All parties are watching. He can get the three things that he has achieved.

How did they know that Chen Mingxiang’s gameplay was different from what they thought. The prices in the Kuomintang-controlled area are high, and the cotton yarn he sells is naturally high. The strategic materials for exchange are collected by the Military Statistics Bureau and the price is low, but it is higher than those profiteers. Less, the gap here is too big.

Secondly, Chen Mingxiang owns a textile factory. The price of cotton yarn imported is low, and the price of cotton cloth is high. This is another large amount of income. However, he settles accounts with all parties according to the normal price in Central China.
