"When Prime Minister Tojo resigned, I knew I could not stay at the Tokyo Gendarmerie Headquarters. Perhaps I was unwilling to embarrass Prime Minister Tojo. I waited more than four months before sending me to the Shanghai stock market. I also said that this is an empire. The best position of the army gendarmerie system is absolutely fatal!" Sifang Lianger said with a wry smile.

That night, Chen Mingxiang hosted a banquet at home to entertain the senior officials of the military police, Sifang Ryouji and Kato Tojiro. Although Wang Zhen could not come out to help, there were cooks and maids, which was not too much trouble.

"Perhaps the former headquarters of the gendarmerie in Shanghai was indeed a fatality in our army gendarmerie system. This is not a lie, but now, according to the time of Miura Saburo and Kinoshita Eiichi, it is already too far behind, Chen Jun It's the direct manager, am I right?" Kato Tomajiro said.

"I began to accept the mission of the gendarmerie in the 28th of the Republic of China to conduct secret smuggling transactions for the empire and the Shancheng government's Kuomintang control area, mainly in exchange for strategic materials such as tung oil, rosin, bristles, tungsten ore, and wood in the Southwest."

"In the 29th and 30th years of the Republic of China, the scale of transactions was not very large. It was only tens of millions of legal tenders per year. In fact, the best ones were in the 31st and 32nd years of the Republic of China. Tens of millions of fiat currencies were collected. Last year, the data was particularly conspicuous because of the order related to the Eastern Army Headquarters."

"From the first half of this year, affected by the war, the empire drew a large amount of materials from the Shanghai stock market, especially the most important cotton cloth and cotton yarn in the transaction, which caused a sharp decline in the quantity. I also closed two textile factories for this. The remaining one is half dead, and the cotton is controlled by Japanese companies."

"Now, the transaction between me and the Military Regiment Bureau has dropped to several hundred million a month. Note that this is calculated based on the Chinese savings voucher, which is equal to several million before. The profit is pitifully small. I provided it to the military police. It's nothing more than a small profit from coal and salt."

"Huatong Trading Company has become a piece of chicken ribs. It is a pity that the food is tasteless and it is barely maintained. There are few materials available on the market, and some civilian products. It is estimated that even the gasoline for the fleet is a problem." Chen Mingxiang said.

He accepted Matsui Takuro’s persuasion and did not close the Huatong Trading Company. It is now a display. The smuggling transaction is at best to make pocket money. Next, the acquisition stations and branches of the provinces may all be transferred to his own subordinates. Commercial organizations are actually undergoing transformation.

In the impression of the Japanese gendarmerie system of the headquarters of the gendarmerie stationed in Shanghai, although Chen Mingxiang is the operator of the Huatong Trading Company, he only accounts for 20% of the profits, and the gendarmerie takes more than half, and the rest All the points are divided.

"It's amazing. It's no wonder it is said that the gendarmerie in central China is rich and rich. It's really such a thing. With a transaction volume of tens of millions a month, how much benefit will this bring, Kinoshita is in a good time. "Sifang Lianger said with a smile, but the meaning in the words was somewhat meaningful.

As an aggressor who launched a criminal war, plundering wealth in the occupied areas is a common phenomenon. Kinoshita Sakae does not embezzle the funds of the empire, and he has some private income. He can't say anything.

"Sifang Jun, Chen Jun is also a member of the gendarmerie system. I have some words to remind you that this is in the occupied area and not in the mainland. Don't care too much about some things, but take the initiative to protect it. The gendarmerie in central China is used to the current life. If you intervene, you will touch the personal interests of your subordinates, which is very detrimental to your work." Kato Tomajiro said.

"I understand what you mean. Both of us were pulled up by Prime Minister Tojo with one hand. Now that the Prime Minister loses power and steps down, there is no support behind us. People have to bow their heads under the eaves. I understand the truth."

"Chen Jun, this situation has always been supported by you. Please help me a lot in the future. I can't say it too bluntly, I believe you can understand it." Sifang said.

To put it harder to say, self-interest belongs to group interests. If he wants to mix in Central China, he can only open one eye and close one eye.The Japanese army is accustomed to the upper hand. Although the military police system is not yet in charge of military discipline, they can join hands to evade the chief officer. This phenomenon is very likely to happen.

In the past, when Hideki Tojo was in power, Sifang Ryouji dared to clean up the senior officer of the headquarters, but when the backstage fell, he had no confidence, let alone the distribution to the Shanghai stock market, and did not think about it. How much achievement is required to be mixed in this, honestly is better than anything.

Now that everyone has a unified mind, the work handover of the gendarmerie headquarters in Shanghai has been slow and orderly. With a well-informed boss, the atmosphere will be more harmonious.

Chen Mingxiang’s four freighters, after Kato Tojiro left, soon pulled anchor and set sail for Jincheng. The Peiping branch and the Jincheng office, as long as they docked with the gendarmerie, Kato Tojiro will naturally complete the handling of the front army headquarters. formalities.

"I haven’t noticed any abnormalities so far. In Chen Mingxiang’s home, there are basically high-ranking imperial army generals every few days. They eat, drink, and chat. The relationship is very close. The most frequent contacts are the Marine Corps Command, Three military institutions, the commander of the Gendarmerie and the headquarters of the 13th Army."

"Director, I heard these empire generals, when they were chatting, they were very pessimistic about the development of the war situation, because of the battle in the Mariana Islands and the naval battle in the Leyte Gulf. They were not optimistic about the future of the empire. Perhaps it was worry. , Anyway, these remarks do not match their identities."

"On the contrary, Chen Mingxiang has always had great expectations for the war in the empire. This may be due to his own problems. He has no retreat. If the empire fails, he will be taken by the mountain city government sooner or later based on his current status and position. Liquidated." Wang Meilin said.

Hei Nakazawa Kitazawa, director of the Mei agency intelligence team, officially returned to the Shanghai stock market where he was stationed after the battle of Yuxianggui launched by the Japanese army, and secretly met with secret intelligence agent Wang Meilin, wanting to know the situation of Villa Mala in the recent period. how about it.

But it made him feel very sorry that Wang Meilin, as a well-trained imperial agent, did not notice any abnormalities. Kitazawa once again felt that he had made a mistake in his judgment. He believed that the agents trained by the Imperial Nakano School were extremely good.

In fact, this is because Chen Mingxiang only let Wang Meilin hear what she should have heard. What if she is an agent trained by the drills of the Japanese Intelligence School? Chen Mingxiang and Wang Zhen are also agents, or agents carefully trained by the Military Command.
