On November 2 of the 31st year of the Republic of China, Lieutenant General Yokoyama Yukoyama, commander of the 11th Army of the Japanese Dispatch Army, commanded the 3rd Division, the 13th Division, the 39th Division, and the 68th Division In accordance with the pre-planned plan, the Wuling Grand Battle with the 116th Division and the First and Sixteenth Division began. The operational targets of the Japanese divisions provided by the Military Statistics Bureau to the headquarters of the Sixth Theater Command have been accurately verified.

On November 4, Wang Jingwei, the head of the Wang puppet government, brought Zhou Aihai and other important officials to Tokyo, Japan by special plane, to participate in the six-nation meeting held by Japanese cabinet prime minister Hideki Tojo.

At this time, there was also a lively scene in the Shanghai stock market. All cloth shops and cotton cloth shops carried the cloth to the door and set up long stalls. The people in the Shanghai stock market were rushing to buy cotton cloth and had little money. Buy a few feet for the money, buy a few horses for the money.

In order to quickly dump the goods in their hands and not be forcibly acquired by the Japanese and the puppets, the bosses of the cotton cloth shop also gritted their teeth and gave a low price. This can at least exchange for cash. It used to be more than ten yuan per square foot. Now it is five yuan six yuan a foot. , This price is much stronger than the purchase price.

One piece of cloth is calculated based on more than 33 meters, which is about 100 feet. The purchase price of the Japanese and the puppets is 375 yuan per piece of cloth, and each square foot of cloth is equal to three 0.75 cents. Too cheating.

"Director Chen, you are the deputy secretary-general of the Chamber of Commerce Unification, and the deputy director of the police station of the municipal government. You are entrusted by the consulate general in Shanghai and the municipal government to assist in the compulsory purchase of cotton and cotton yarn. Now businessmen are adopting this method. Engaging in confrontation, I hope you can stop it in time and not let the situation worsen!" Nie Lusheng, the director of the Office of the Chamber of Commerce to buy cotton gauze, came to the office of the police station and said.

This office is a specialized agency set up for the compulsory purchase of cotton and cotton yarn. Nie Lusheng is also the owner of a famous spinning mill in the Shanghai stock market. His qualifications are very deep. Now he sees his colleagues exploit loopholes and disrupt the work of the office. Worried about being blamed by the Japanese, he went to Chen Mingxiang.

"Director Nie, my police station is only responsible for the implementation of the government orders that have been issued. It is not what I want to do. When I receive the official document, when can I take measures against the cotton merchants? You can't push me into the fire pit either!" Chen Mingxiang said with a cigarette in his mouth.

"You don’t know the efficiency of the Jinling government. Chairman Wang went to Japan for a meeting, and Minister Zhou Aohai followed. There was no chairperson at all. Chairman Wang even took it back and added the meeting. It took a week in a blink of an eye. There are 259 cloth shops in the city, and there are thousands of cloths in one day, and the number of cotton cloths reported is only over 27,000, and the fraction disappeared in an instant!" Nie Lusheng was anxious.

"The sky is falling and there is a high bear, why are you worried? This is a mistake in Jinling, what is our business? If there is a problem, I can't find your head, go back to the office and drink tea, when? After downloading the file, come to me again!" Chen Mingxiang said indifferently.

Nie Lusheng didn't dare to entangle this matter anymore. He knew that Huatong Trading Company was also purchasing cotton cloth at a high price. In fact, Chen Mingxiang did not deliberately conceal his intentions. He just wanted to take the opportunity to stock up cotton cloth without fear of people knowing it.

In the face of this kind of upright undermining of compulsory acquisitions, both the municipal government and the consulate general in Shanghai pretended not to see it, and the Chamber of Commerce did not dare to control Chen Mingxiang's affairs.

"Director Chen, this time I came to you and there is a small matter. A friend of mine entrusted me to privately sell a batch of cotton cloth and cotton yarn to Huatong Trading Company, the quantity is 1,000 pieces each."

"His asking price is not high. Twenty cotton yarns are 15,000 yuan each, and the leading muslin is 12,000 yuan each. I hope to meet you. I don't know what you mean?" Nie Lusheng said.

"You have to meet with me for such an order. It is not necessary. Ask him to directly contact the people of Huatong Trading Company, send the goods to the warehouse for inspection, and then go to the financial department to get the money directly. Your friend’s goods, I’m afraid it’s not What is the normal channel goods?" Chen Mingxiang said.

Huatong Trading Company opened the door for acquisitions, not afraid of you asking for money, or you are out of stock, and has always maintained a good reputation. Under such circumstances, this person has to talk to himself. There must be a reason.

However, Chen Mingxiang’s current status is not something anyone can see if he wants to see him. Two thousand shipments, when Huatong Trading Company first opened, he still valued him. Now, an ordinary salesperson can handle it. Problem money is absolutely fine.

In fact, Chen Mingxiang smelled it with his nose, and he knew that this batch of goods must be from the Shanghai suburban intelligence station. It was slowly acquired through the relationship of the Qinggang. The bureau's headquarters has already reported this.

Pan Qiwu was also worried that he had no overall view of the overall situation. He deliberately pointed out this matter. As long as the goods are shipped to the Kuomintang Control Area, the direct station will provide assistance. Cotton cloth and cotton yarn are the most popular goods. The Military Reunification Bureau cannot abandon this huge benefit. Smuggling and smuggling are the two main sources of funding.

If you want to be a qualified Class A stationmaster, you must score clearly the stakes. He helps to sell the goods, and he has a good income, and he can also make a good impression. Boss Dai has given so many privileges to the direct station, and he treats him again. I don’t hesitate to cultivate, and I must have a broad mind, and there is no loss anyway.

"You are right, these goods were hoarded privately by my friend. What he meant was that they had to go to the territory of the Kuomintang Controlled Area. If they flow to other places, once they are found out by the Japanese, the following things are very troublesome." Nie Lusheng Said.

Obviously, his friend also knew that the quantity of this order was too small to be able to see Chen Mingxiang, so he stated his request in advance.

This reason cannot be wrong. Chen Mingxiang's business is wholesale rather than retail. No matter the city in the enemy-occupied area, the sudden influx of so many goods may immediately attract attention.

Chen Mingxiang is not worried about the Japanese being held accountable, but the problem is that the seller is worried!Maybe something else will be involved because of this!

"I'm gone, you tell him, the goods are normally stored in the warehouse and get the full payment. The goods of Huatong Trading Company always go to the Kuomintang Controlled Area. The prices there are high, and I get the most benefit. A fool will take the goods. Digested elsewhere." Chen Mingxiang said.

He didn't want to have anything to do with the people at the Shanghai Suburb Intelligence Station. He actually dared to reach out to his own turf. He really thought that all the enemies were just a mess?

This is not because the Shanghai Suburb Intelligence Station is outstretched in anger, but for the sake of my own safety. It only involves the goods, and no one can take him. If it involves the military reunification, I am afraid it will have a negative impact on my "image". .
