The first thousand one hundred and fifty-three chapters are disheartened

"Any other way?" Li Zhiqun suddenly became interested. He didn't have any plans in this regard, but he just couldn't figure out the specific direction.

Yu Xinhong nodded and responded: "Minister, I had already planned that the financial situation of our police department is tight and urgently needs funds to be supplemented. At present, Shanghai's business model has been fixed. The traditional industry's speed of making money is too slow and profits are too small. It can be said that it is difficult to quench the thirst in the near future. If you want to earn a lot of wealth in a short time, you must do extraordinary things."

Speaking of this, Yu Xinhong coughed lightly, cheered up and told some of his previous plans: "The most profitable business in Shanghai is to smuggle and control materials. In fact, we have an advantage in this regard. We can think of ways in this regard, if we get the support of General Ying Zuo..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhiqun waved his hand in disappointment and said, "Xinhong, you know that in Shanghai, this kind of business is monopolized by Fujiwara Corporation. Their behavior is domineering and will not allow others to intervene. Not to mention that it is us, even those Japanese merchants are obediently serving as their suppliers. We can't get the goods at all. And even if we have a way to smuggle in, we dare not take action. Once Fujiwara Corporation realizes it, it will definitely be a disaster and it will be too risky."

Li Zhiqun rejected Yu Xinhong's proposal. Not to mention that it was him, even his immediate boss, Hiroki Kyosa, would not mess with the giant Fujiwara Club, and he did not want to be invited by the Japanese military police to visit Fujiwara Club.

When Yu Xinhong heard that Li Zhiqun was so afraid, he quickly explained: "Minister, you misunderstood. Of course, we cannot sell goods locally. You know, if these controlled materials are shipped to the National Government District, the profit will be amazing.

My plan is to use General Yingzuo to try to open up the Third Fleet's way and let us use their special docks so that we can use our customs without going through customs. As long as we do secretly, we can transport the supplies into Shanghai without knowing it, and then transport them to Hangzhou in the name of our agent headquarters, and enter Jiangxi to do business with the Kuomintang-controlled area. This is a good business, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a huge profit."

The so-called third fleet is the Japanese Chinese fleet formed to attack Shanghai after the "January 28 Incident" in 1932. In the Battle of Shanghai in 1937, the Japanese army invaded China in an all-out manner. As the only naval force deployed in China, it was always stationed in China's Yangtze River Basin and coastal areas. Although it had few warships, it had many elite Marines. The headquarters was also located in Shanghai and had its own exclusive military dock in Shanghai.

When Li Zhiqun heard this, he was silent for a moment. He carefully calculated the feasibility of this matter in his mind. Smuggling controlled materials naturally has a huge benefit and can solve all financial crises. With this financial path, Zhou Fushan and others naturally don’t need to take it seriously. The Ministry of Police and the No. 76 Agent Headquarters can be developed more, and his status in the Nanjing government can be more stable.

But the wish is beautiful, but the risks here are too high. First of all, we must get the support of Kagesa Yuki. Otherwise, everything will be a silence. Secondly, we must avoid the eyes and ears of Fujiwara. Otherwise, with Fujiwara's style, the consequences will be very serious. After thinking about it, he still dared not make up his mind to intervene.

After a long time, he shook his head and said, "Smuggling controlled materials is of course very profitable, but it is too difficult to operate here!"

When Yu Xinhong saw Li Zhiqun's hesitation, he was secretly anxious. He was now in charge of the financial work of Li Zhiqun's subordinates, but a good wife couldn't cook without rice and had no money in her hands. He often broke down the east wall and repaired the west wall, so life was not easy.

This time when he returned to Shanghai, he was arranged by Li Zhiqun to manage the mess in western Shanghai. He was caught between Li Zhiqun and the Qing Gang and was suffering. He lived like a year, and he might have life worries. Therefore, he was trying hard to find new ways to try to get rid of the embarrassing situation now.

So he continued to persuade: "Minister, this time the funding gap of the police department is, you asked General Yingzuo to solve part of the funding for us, but what should we do next? The funding of the Japanese army is also tight. He cannot always speak for us. The problem will be solved sooner or later.

Besides, there are many senior Japanese leaders who interfere in smuggling materials and make a lot of profits. General Kyosa may not be unwilling to do so. He also took advantage of Fujiwara's company before, but it is not as good as participating in it. There is no harm in trying it.

If you can agree, then the interests in the future will be related. Will General Yingzuo trust you more? This is also a way to get closer and maintain the relationship.

In addition, there are also many goods needed by the Japanese in the Kuomintang-controlled area, such as tung oil, bristles and other strategic materials. We open up channels and exchange them for them, which is also a great achievement. General Yingzuo is definitely willing.

As for Fujiwara Corporation, we have no major conflict of interest. We just borrowed the Shanghai port to purchase goods. All the smuggled materials were secretly sent to Hangzhou, and they were not sold in Shanghai or Central China. We shipped them to the Kuomintang-controlled area by ourselves, which did not affect the interests of Fujiwara Corporation. Even if they knew about it, with the support of General Yingsau, no matter how domineering he is, he would not give him any face.

Minister, do extraordinary things and do extraordinary things. If you do not open up new sources of wealth, the work of the Police Department will be difficult to continue. You, the Minister of Police Department, are you really going to give up Nanjing and return to Shanghai to be the king of charlatan?"

Yu Xinhong's words shocked Li Zhiqun. The truth in the words was very clear. He was an alien in the Nanjing government, not trusted by Wang Baihai, and was excluded by Zhou Fushan. If he did not think about change, he opened up a path of wealth and formed his own system. In the end, he would be afraid that he would really retreat to Shanghai and would be difficult to develop.

After thinking about it, Li Zhiqun finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back to Nanjing as soon as possible and ask General Yingzuo for instructions, hoping for a good result."

On the morning of the next day, Li Zhiqun called Luo Xingchao to his office and informed him of rushing back to Nanjing.

"Xingchao, I have something important to do this time and I will hand over my family's work to you again."

Luo Xingchao suddenly received this notice and couldn't help but feel relieved. For the past month, Li Zhiqun has been at the secret agent headquarters and urged all parties to work, and he has also been very nervous. Now, he is naturally quite happy to hear that Li Zhiqun is leaving.

But he said with regret: "Director, why did you return to Nanjing so soon?"

Li Zhiqun sighed lightly, and shook his head and said, "This time I come back, the funding problem is still not settled. I am going to go back to Nanjing to ask General Yingzuo for help, but I will come back soon this time. I'll ask you to come, and there is something to arrange for you."

"Just give your order!"

"When I'm not here, you have to send some people to protect Xinhong's safety. Chen Jinbao and others are restless. I'm afraid that once I leave, they will cause trouble."

Although Li Zhiqun comforted Yu Xinhong before, he did not dare to take risks after all, so he still had to do a good job in protecting Yu Xinhong. Most of his subordinates had something to do with the Qing Gang, and he really didn't dare to assign others in this work. During his absence, Luo Xingchao was in charge of the work of the secret service headquarters. He was born as a Japanese spy and a military commander, and he had nothing to do with the Qing Gang. He was still at ease to protect Yu Xinhong.

Luo Xingchao was stunned when he heard this. He did not understand Li Zhiqun's words. Li Zhiqun had to tell the situation in Shanghai and West, and finally said: "Chen Jinbao is getting more and more excessive now. He actually interfered in the operation of the agent headquarters. I used to endure the master's face, but she was more and more arrogant. This woman has a stubborn personality and cruel means. She does not consider the consequences when she does things. She is afraid that she will take advantage of me when I am not in Shanghai. Xingchao, you should pay more attention."

Luo Xingchao frowned when he heard this and said slowly: "Director, since Chen Jinbao doesn't know anything, there is no reason to guard against thieves for thousands of days. He is just a woman. Just get rid of it. You must not be kind to a woman!"

If he wants to gain more initiative in the agent headquarters, Wu Shicai, who controls the operational power, is his biggest obstacle. This time, his action against Wu Shicai was defeated by Chen Jinbao's support. Luo Xingchao has always felt quite regretful.

From this we can see that with Chen Jinbao as Wu Shicai's backer, it is difficult for him to deal with Wu Shicai. It is better to use Li Zhiqun to get rid of Chen Jinbao and at the same time weaken Wu Shicai's strength.

When Li Zhiqun heard this, he looked at Luo Xingchao. In fact, when he knew that Chen Jinbao was doing tricks in the western Shanghai area, he had this idea in his mind. The business in western Shanghai was his wallet. Chen Jinbao wanted to make this idea, but he had already violated his taboo, but he could not make up his mind for the moment.

Now seeing Luo Xingchao say this, he said hesitantly: "Will this cause civil strife?"

Luo Xingchao was delighted when he saw Li Zhiqun's intentions. Li Zhiqun was the most abusive and afraid that others would plot against his rights. Chen Jinbao was too strong and finally made Li Zhiqun want to kill.

"Director, the so-called failure to stop, you will suffer the chaos. Besides, getting rid of Chen Jinbao may not cause chaos. There are so many old-fashioned people in this hall. If you just support an obedient person, it will be calm."

Li Zhiqun sat in the seat and didn't say anything for a long time. Luo Xingchao knew that Li Zhiqun's intention had moved, so he stopped talking, otherwise it would be too much. Then he reported: "By the way, Director, we did some work in the investigation of Cha Yutang's disappearance, but it had little effect. I just found out that the day before Cha Yutang disappeared, a man was arrested in the US garrison in the public concession. The man was ordered by Phillips, and later he was locked in the military camp. After a trial, Cha Yutang and his men disappeared the next day, and no one saw this man again.

Also, Cha Yutang's residence and office were also searched by the US garrison. All the things left were in the hands of Phillips. During this period, there were no signs of the Shanghai Intelligence Department intervening. Phillips's identity was special and he was in the public concession. I really didn't dare to take risks, so..."

"Okay, I know everything!" Li Zhiqun waved his hand. He asked Luo Xingchao to investigate the matter of Cha Yutang. In fact, he didn't have much hope. Since the opponent had made a desperate move, he would not leave too many flaws. The first and last steps were handled neatly, and now he heard Luo Xingchao's report and was completely disappointed.

"Actually, I also know that if it is really related to the Shanghai Intelligence Department, with their ability to act, we will find it difficult to find their traces. This will come to an end in advance. I will talk about everything when I come back. Oh, this time I go back to Shanghai, it's really a headache!"
