Chapter 158 Another Emergency
"Commissioner Ma, do you mean that you came all the way from Jinling specifically to send me the money?" Why did Chen Yang feel this matter was so weird.
The material distribution center in Shanghai caught fire, and someone from the Jinling government, who had nothing to do with the center, came to give money?
"Yes," Ma Yanlin explained with a smile. He said a lot of words in a long-winded way, and Chen Yang understood it after listening to half of it.
This was the idea that came from that aunt Li Xianshu.
The Shanghai Consulate in China could not afford the compensation, so she actually came up with a way to get the Reform Government in Nanjing to pay.
Of course, the current Republic of China Reform Government is not the new government of the Wang Puppet Regime. It is a pro-Japanese puppet regime established by Liang Hongzhi and others in Nanjing in March of this year.
Its main support force is the Chinese Expeditionary Force and the Chinese Affairs Squad of the General Staff Headquarters, which is the Chinese Affairs Squad of Kagesa Masaaki...
The power of this government was neither big nor small. It governed the Japanese-occupied areas in the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui, and the two special cities of Nanjing and Shanghai.
Since it was established not long ago, the so-called reformist government is just a bunch of dung, with a shiny surface.
Usually, apart from extorting a little from the wealthy people in the Japanese-occupied areas and asking the Japanese devils for a little, there was basically no money.
After receiving Li Xianshu's instructions, Liang Hongzhi and others were worried.
Two million, seven hundred and eighty thousand worth of supplies wouldn't be worth that much even if the entire government was sold.
But there was no way out. They dared not disobey Li Xianshu's orders. After several people scraped together money, they could only get 200,000 US dollars.
It's quite a far cry from the figure of 2.78 million oceans.
In desperation, they could only look for Ye Zhengxian from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Financial Group.
Get some supplies from him and fool him.
After explaining the whole story, Ma Yanlin took out two checks from his briefcase.
Chen Yang took it and took a look.
One is for $200,000 and the other is for $30,000...
Chen Yang played with the check and said, "Commissioner Ma, what do you mean by this?"
"Advisor Chen, you are the advisor to the new government's Finance Department,"
"You are also aware that the new government has been short of money since its establishment and cannot come up with so much money all at once,"
"We can only do our best and hope that Consultant Chen can help us maneuver..."
"This one is for your hard work..."
Chen Yang sneered and said, "Commissioner Ma, the value of that batch of materials is two to three million dollars."
"You want to get away with just $200,000? That's a little unreasonable."
Ma Yanlin hurriedly winked at Ye Zhengxian.
Ye Zhengxian quickly took out a stack of material lists and handed it to Chen Yang, saying, "Advisor Chen, in order to help the new government solve its problems, our Chamber of Commerce has urgently raised a batch of materials. Although the amount is not enough, we have done our best."
"Don't worry, Consultant Chen. This batch of materials has arrived at the Wusongkou Wharf and will be delivered to the Material Transfer Center warehouse this afternoon..."
Chen Yang put down the check, looked at the list of supplies, thought for a while and said slowly: "I can't just stand by and watch my colleague from the same province die."
"Well, I'll try my best to explain to the higher-ups that supplies are in short supply and prices are rising. Hopefully, that'll work out."
Ma Yanlin and Ye Zhengxian were delighted when they heard this. "Thank you, Consultant Chen. Thank you, Consultant Chen."
"Nothing," Chen Yang smiled and waved his hand and said to Ye Zhengxian, "Boss Ye has devoted all his efforts to the empire. If there is anything you need to coordinate in the future, you can come to me."
"The empire's cause needs the support of people like Boss Ye, and I will also provide you with appropriate conveniences."
"You are telling the truth," Ye Zheng was stunned at first, then he was ecstatic.
Chen Yang's words mean that this batch of supplies is really worth it.
This upstart official controls the transportation lines for daily life. If we can get on board with him, the flow of materials for the Chamber of Commerce will be much more convenient in the future.
Chen Yang nodded and said, "The prerequisite is that the material documents must be complete. Of course, you can communicate with Team Leader Dongye of the General Affairs Office about this."
"We are all family. If there is no problem, I will help you deal with it."
Ye Zheng was slightly stunned, then he immediately realized that this was a blatant request for a bribe.
However, as long as the goods are in and out quickly and the profit is small but the sales volume is quick, the money will be well spent.
"By the way," Ma Yanlin said carefully, "Advisor Chen, I have another mission on this trip."
"I wonder if you can help. Espionage activities in Nanjing are rampant. It is difficult for the Special High Section to control the situation alone."
"The government wants to organize a new intelligence agency to assist the Special High Police in catching spies."
"Haha, Commissioner Ma, you may have entered the wrong temple and worshipped the wrong god," Chen Yang chuckled and said, "I am just in charge of the transportation of materials."
"You shouldn't ask me about intelligence matters."
"Advisor Chen, please listen to my explanation." Ma Yanlin said hurriedly: "The establishment of a department is under discussion."
"We hope that Consultant Chen can think of a way to provide some material support."
“The Financial Secretary is having a hard time….”
Uh, this is begging at your door. This new government is really shameless in its desire for money.
They raised some money here, and now they are preparing to take the money back.
What are you pursuing when you become a traitor? You have made the traitor lose all his face...
"Okay," Chen Yang waved his hand and said, "You can apply to the Expeditionary Force Headquarters for funding and materials, or ask for help from the Chinese Affairs Section."
"This is the material transfer center. All material transfers are documented and there is no shortage of documents."
"If you two have nothing else to do, please go back now."
Ma Yanlin was turned down and could only smile awkwardly and stand up to say goodbye.
Ye Zhengxian was very happy and even left a business card for Chen Yang before leaving.
After sending the two away, Chen Yang dialed the internal phone and asked Higashino Daiki to come in.
After handing the list of supplies provided by Ye Zhengxian to Higashino Oki, Chen Yang did not forget to instruct him to let Nitta Koichi check it clearly.
Of course, he wasn't shy about giving the $230,000.
Although these supplies are not much, they are enough for the mission.
After settling the mess at the Material Distribution Center, Chen Yang took some time to go to Xiaotong Bridge.
It is not safe to keep the supplies in the warehouse and they need to be exchanged for cash as soon as possible.
After all, the pharmaceutical company in the UK is still waiting for his second batch of 500,000 pounds of funds.
When Gao Tianjiu heard that these materials were tung oil, pig bristles and other in-demand export commodities, he immediately guaranteed that all the materials could be sold out within a week.
After all, this thing is the favorite of those foreigners...
After explaining everything, Chen Yang slowly headed towards the International Hotel.
However, when he passed Hualan Road, he was stunned for no reason.
I saw that the green plants on the third floor quietly turned into two pots...
