The Military Control Bureau fought the Japanese and puppet forces in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and after the destruction of the Shanghai District 1 and the Shanghai Stock Exchange Special Operations Corps, several leaders were either arrested and rebelled or under house arrest, and basically had their flags come to an end. Only several guerrillas from the Zhongyi National Salvation Army still insisted on fighting in the suburbs of the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

In terms of intelligence, in addition to several lurking working groups, the direct station led by Chen Mingxiang is currently the main intelligence force of the Military Intelligence Bureau in the Shanghai Stock Exchange. In addition to collecting military and political intelligence, it is also responsible for exchanging scarce materials for the Kuomintang-controlled area and providing funds for the bureau headquarters.

Li Shiqun's agent headquarters evacuated the Shanghai Stock Exchange and moved to Hangzhou, which meant that the spy system of the Wang Puppet Government gave up the Shanghai Stock Exchange and handed over the responsibility of the military police headquarters and the police station in Shanghai.

The Shanghai Experimental Zone of the Special Agent Headquarters, under the "leader" of Chen Mingxiang, became a group of gangsters with only money in their eyes and was not interested in any work such as intelligence and arrest operations.

Chen Mingxiang could neither take the military service personnel from the Military Affairs Bureau or the Central Administration Bureau in Shanghai nor deal with the underground party. He had no other means except using money to make the way and vigorously compile his own intelligence network.

Information is collected bit by bit from daily contact. The prerequisite is that there must be a basis for contact and no interest is used as a bond. Why should he establish a relationship with the Japanese generals?

For any important top-secret information, the higher the level of military rank and position, the greater the possibility of being informed, the more effective the interests are than human favors, and it can reduce people's vigilance.

"Thank you for your gift to the Consulate General, and I wish you a happy New Year. Our Consulate General will hold a New Year's party tonight. The fruits you shipped from Nanyang are very popular. If there are any, send some more." Consul General Horiuchi said with a smile.

For him, the so-called luxury consumer goods such as cigars and red wine are not seen. This time Chen Mingxiang came to greet him, which brought him the basis for future cooperation, a large box of US dollars!

"I would like to thank the Consul General for his strong support. After the cancellation of the Xingya Academy, all cooperation agreements signed between me and the Central China Liaison Department were not affected by this matter. This is your deliberate care for me." Chen Mingxiang said.

After the revocation of the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Academy, all functions were handed over to the Consulate General in Shanghai. The power of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also rose with the rise of the water. Therefore, there is a deep interest between the two.

After the handover was completed, Horiuchi Yoshiki did not raise any objection to several companies under Chen Mingxiang's name and the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Academy. He continued to operate according to the original conditions. In return, Chen Mingxiang transferred the original share of Oda Yaji to Horiuchi Yoshiki.

"Whether it is coal balls or salt, what you do is to serve the empire, the social order in the Shanghai Stock Exchange is stable, and the logistics support of the army can be smooth, which is also my responsibility."

"Jun Chen, I want to remind you one thing. Although Japanese businessmen value self-interest and their greedy behaviors interfere with the affairs of the government and the military, you must know that they and the army are inseparable wholes and have a high dependence on each other. You'd better not do things too extreme." Horiuchi said.

This must be because the Japanese coal merchants could not hold on anymore and begged the Consul General to come forward to reconcile. The Consulate General in Shanghai also had its own considerations and had to rely on the Japanese chaebols to provide supplies to the country and the army, so he said this.

"Consul General, I did not deliberately want to oppose these Japanese merchants, and it was not my business. Instead, I had to do so at the request of the garrison headquarters, the Central China Liaison Department, the Gendarmerie Headquarters and the municipal government."

"You should understand the style of these people's work. If you don't get deeply taught and suffer heart-wrenching pain, it will be even more difficult to restrain it in the future. Of course, all this comes from your wishes. I can stop the actions I take at any time." Chen Mingxiang said.

Although Japanese businessmen had been operating business in China for a long time, to be precise, they followed the pace of Japanese invasion and went deeper into various parts of China step by step, because the various resources in the occupied areas were open to them at low prices or free of charge.

Greed is endless. It is precisely because of such a privileged identity that it has bred stronger ambitions and has even threatened the interests of the military. For example, this coal wasteland incident is the best example.

The Japanese government and military headquarters hope to maintain the stability of the Shanghai market and use this most powerful industrial leading city in China to deliver more materials to the war, but the chaebol did not even let go of the necessities of people's livelihood and wanted to hoard and earn more money.

"Don't worry, the Consulate General in Shanghai absolutely supports you. This matter is also required by the Cabinet and the Military Department. The social stability of the Shanghai Stock Exchange must be maintained and the behavior of the chaebol cannot cause turmoil. You are not wrong in planning to sell 100,000 tons of coal."

"I will arrange for you to meet with a few Japanese businessmen during the cocktail party tonight. When the Chinese New Year is over, you can run the coal market together."

"I have something to tell you in advance. In order to prevent foreign expatriates from secretly participating in sabotage activities against the empire, the Cabinet and the Military Department decided to set up centralized residential areas in the Shanghai Stock Exchange to move all the expatriates and missionaries in and isolate them from the outside world, so that they can be managed and prevented."

"This operation will be launched in mid-February, and the public concession will be vacant with a large amount of real estate and personal assets. If you have made outstanding contributions to the empire, you must also enjoy the empire's resources and you can choose a part of it." Horiuchi said.

This is the return of Chen Mingxiang's money given to him. The assets of British and American expatriates are also imperial property if confiscated. They are either sealed up or used by the Japanese. If he cannot lose any benefits, it is better to give Chen Mingxiang some benefits. This also reflects that he has money to do things and "character" is fine.

What kind of shitty concentrated residential area is a notorious concentration camp!

Chen Mingxiang deeply felt the vicious heart of the Japanese. The concentration camp is hell. I guess many people will definitely die by the day when the Anti-Japanese War is victorious!

He didn't care about the real estate and personal assets of the British and American expatriates, but he thought about how to save their lives. From the Japanese occupying the public concession to the present, in order to find a protective umbrella for himself in the future, he secretly did a lot of work. He first sent away a large number of wealthy businessmen, and then provided food and food every month. The efforts he put in can't be wasted.

After leaving the Consulate General in Shanghai, Chen Mingxiang drove to Riddle's house. Since things were inevitable, he had to find a way to face them and notify them in advance that he could make many arrangements in more than a month.
