"Do you suspect these are fake coins?" Lu Xingge looked at the fiat currency in his hand and asked, "Do you suspect the Japanese have created fake fiat currency?"
"Just doubt, there is no evidence." Cheng Qianfan nodded and said, "The problem is that these banknotes do not seem fake no matter how they look."
"If you hadn't said you suspected that these fiat currencies were fake, I wouldn't have doubted the money at all." Lu Xingge said.
He just looked around and couldn't see that there was something wrong with the money.
However, Lu Xingge believed in his second brother very much. Since he suspected that there was something wrong with the money, it was really possible that there was a problem.
...
"Then what do you mean?" Lu Xingge asked.
"Let professional people do professional things," said Cheng Qianfan, "We can't tell the authenticity of this legal currency, but someone can definitely identify it."
"Jinling Mint?" Lu Xingge immediately understood.
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "I'm sorry, brother, find a way to find a master from the Jinling Mint to identify one or two."
"It's difficult," Lu Xingge thought, "As far as I know, the Jinling Mint evacuated early before Nanjing fell, and the workers and masters also evacuated. Even if there were those stranded in Nanjing, they would probably have been killed in that inhumane catastrophe."
He said to Cheng Qianfan, "If there is someone, it would be fine. I'm afraid that there will be no such person after searching for a long time."
"Brother should know the harm of counterfeit coins." Cheng Qianfan said.
"If these fiat currencies were really forged by the Japanese, it means that the Japanese are fully capable and are already doing this. If they forged fiat currencies on a large scale..." Lu Xingge pondered.
"Just think about it, they just forged this piece of paper and could exchange food, cloth, and minerals from the Kuomintang-controlled area." He continued with a serious expression, "It's so terrible, it's simply a knife that kills people without blood."
"I didn't expect that my brother still understands the financial economy so much." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Brother, although I am a soldier, I am also an excellent graduate of Central Army School." Lu Xingge glared at his second brother, "It's the senior of you, the dropout."
"If it is really the Japanese forged legal currency, the nature of the nature is so bad, since the elder brother knows it, it is important to find someone to identify it." Cheng Qianfan said with a serious expression, "If there is no one, I can only report my suspicion to Boss Dai and ask Chongqing to verify it."
"Okay, I understand. If there are really masters or workers who survive by chance, they will definitely find it out." Lu Xingge nodded, "Anyway, this matter will fall on you and me."
He understood what his second brother thought that they were convenient for handling this matter in Nanjing. If it was reported to Chongqing, Chongqing would be thousands of miles apart and to thoroughly investigate the matter, it would probably be ordered to do things.
...
"I heard that Chen Gongshu has been in high spirits recently." Lu Xingge said with a smile.
"He deserves to be proud of such great achievements." Cheng Qianfan smiled, "What's more, he can help me get rid of the enemy. I should thank him."
When Lu Xingge heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
Just last August, Zhang Xiaolin was assassinated by his bodyguard.
It is said that Zhang Xiaolin was waiting for the dancer to come on the second floor, and he heard a bodyguard quarreling in the yard downstairs.
Zhang Xiaolin poked his head out on the balcony and scolded him angrily.
Unexpectedly, one of his bodyguards pulled out his gun and shot Zhang Xiaolin to death.
This was an action planned by the Military Control Commission Shanghai Station for a long time. Boss Dai, who was far away in Chongqing, was overjoyed to learn about this and did not hesitate to commend Chen Gongshu.
Not only that, after successfully eliminating the traitor Zhang Xiaolin, the Shanghai District of the Military Control Commission did not stop. Since September last year, the various operation groups of the Shanghai District of the Military Control Commission have launched more than 50 major operations, with the targets mainly Japanese officers and soldiers.
A large number of Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded in Shanghai. The places where Japanese soldiers often entered and left were the focus of the attack. They either shot in secret or suddenly someone came to throw grenades and explosives. It can be said that gunfire and explosions occurred almost every day.
During this period, the Japanese soldiers were almost scared to go out of the base camp alone. The Japanese soldiers in uniforms did not even dare to walk alone on the road except for joining in groups and guarding each other.
In comparison, although the Shanghai Special Affairs Office's special affairs team also took action during this period, killing and wounding more than ten Japanese personnel, the results were much worse than those in Shanghai. Therefore, this time, the Shanghai area suppressed the Special Affairs Office, and Chen Gongshu has been quite proud recently.
...
"If you hadn't suppressed your brothers, the limelight this time would not have been stolen by Chen Gongshu." Lu Xingge smiled.
"Security is the first priority in special work war behind enemy lines." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and said.
The actions of the Special Affairs Office always keep in mind his orders and never fight unsure of the battle. They must not only attack the enemy, but also not act blindly. Any action must be considered as defeat before winning and arranging the evacuation.
Therefore, the frequency of the Special Information Department's actions is far less than that of the Shanghai District, because their actions are more meticulous and have a longer period of time. After each action, they will lie dormant for a period of time, rather than just like the Shanghai District, one after another, from top to bottom, they are happy to hear the battle, and they wish they could kill a few Japanese every day.
"Starting operations, eliminating traitors, and sanctioning traitors is just part of my job, and it is far from my main job." Cheng Qianfan said, "Boss Dai also knows this, so unless there are really tricky things that require special information to take action, Chongqing will not care too much about our results."
Lu Xingge nodded, not saying anything else, just his second brother's current identities:
On the side of the Wang puppet regime, he was Chu Mingyu's confidant Secretary Cheng; it was Senator Cheng who was praised by Wang Baihai.
In the French Concession, he is the famous "Mr. Xiao Cheng".
On the Japanese side, he is Kentaro Miyazaki. In addition to being an agent of the Shanghai Special High School, Kentaro Miyazaki is also a student of Imamura Hitotaro, the actual person in charge of Iwai Mansion, and a friend of Atsuto Kawada.
Such a second brother is obviously not just killing a few enemies to measure his value in Boss Dai's mind.
...
"Shanghai District has been too high-profile recently. I am worried that the Japanese will have a crazy counterattack." Cheng Qianfan said.
Lu Xingge nodded, he thought so too.
"Okay, Chen Gongshu is worried about the matter in Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan said, "There is one thing."
"you say."
"Boss Dai's telegram orders to punish the traitor Chi Bochao." Cheng Qianfan said, "Previously, Boss Dai called to analyze Chi Bochao in Shanghai. However, after checking in Shanghai for several months, no trace of Chi Bochao was found."
"Do you suspect this person is in Nanjing?" Lu Xingge asked.
"Looking for a needle in a haystack, just a hammer in the east and a stick in the west." Cheng Qianfan said with a wry smile.
"Okay, tell me about Chi Bochao's situation." Lu Xingge said, "This name sounds familiar, but I just can't remember it all at once."
...
"I don't know this person either. The basic information comes from Boss Dai's telegram." Cheng Qianfan said.
"This person was the head of the first section of the General Affairs Office of Tianjin District and had worked at the Peking Station." Cheng Qianfan said, "Two Che Che and Jiao Enmin from Tianjin District were arrested and died for their country. The root cause of the enemy in Tianjin was Chi Bochao's rebellion."
He told Lu Xingge about Chi Bochao's situation.
"There is a wrinkle under this man's right eyebrow." Cheng Qianfan said.
"It's okay to have this characteristic." Lu Xingge breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This Chi Bochao has been moving in the north. We have never seen this person here. If we don't have this characteristic, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack and there is no clue."
After hearing Lu Xingge's words, Cheng Qianfan suddenly had a slightly moved expression and fell into deep thought.
...
"What did you think of?" Lu Xingge asked. Among the three brothers, he was good at bravery, the third brother was honest, humble and versatile, while the second brother was the smartest and had the most ideas.
"It was the eldest brother's words that reminded me just now." Cheng Qianfan said, "Chi Bochao rebelled and killed many brothers, including Che Che and Jiao Enmin. He must know that our Military Control Commission intends to eliminate them quickly."
He looked at Lu Xingge and said, "His wicked siege is his most obvious feature. Chi Bochao must also know that the wicked siege is extremely dangerous."
"I understand what you mean." Lu Xingge nodded, "You suspect Chi Bochao has found a way to get rid of the wrinkle."
"The possibility is very high." Cheng Qianfan said, "In Shanghai, the brothers secretly searched for the son of the sage, but found nothing. If this person had already gone to the sage, then naturally he would not be able to find anyone."
He stood up, paced, thought, and said, "Shanghai's plastic surgery is the best in China. It is not difficult to get rid of the evil under his eyebrows."
"And..." His eyes shone brightly, "There are many Japanese clinics in Shanghai who are known for surgery for double eyelids and snips. Chi Bochao has defected to the Japanese..."
"Yes." Lu Xingge nodded, saying, "It is easy for the Japanese to arrange a clinic to help Chi Bochao get rid of the womb to facilitate his transformation to hide it."
The two brothers looked at each other and thought it was very possible.
...
"Boss Dai suspected that this person was in Shanghai, and it seems that it is right now. This person is very likely still in Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan said, "I then went to Shanghai to call Shanghai and asked my brothers to secretly investigate the hospital and clinic to see if I could find clues."
"The focus is on clinics opened by Japanese people." Lu Xingge said.
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "And I suspect that I would choose a more remote and business-oriented clinic."
"This is not necessarily the case." Lu Xingge shook his head and said, "But it is the direction of investigation after all."
Cheng Qianfan nodded.
At this time, there was a quarrel on the streets outside.
Their faces changed.
Lu Xingge walked carefully to the windowsill. He gently lifted the curtains and saw a car parked not far away on the road, and a Japanese soldier was having an argument with the owner.
"It's a foreigner." Cheng Qianfan also came over, glanced at him, and said.
"I am from Citigroup and live nearby." Lu Xingge said, "It's strange. The Japanese soldiers were still very polite to these foreigners before."
...
"The relationship between the Japanese and Citigroup people is a little stiff now." Cheng Qianfan said clearly about these things.
In October last year, the German Foreign Minister met with Japanese Foreign Minister. The Germans were looking forward to landing on the British Peninsula and forcing the British to surrender. At the same time, in order to create pressure on the British, Germany hopes that Japan will send troops to occupy Singapore.
The Japanese side agreed, and then turned around and secretly contacted the British, and used this as a bargaining chip to threaten the British, demanding that the British close the Yunnan-Burma Highway and completely cut off China's external assistance to the War of Resistance, otherwise they would attack Singapore.
Facing the threat from Japan, Prime Minister Churchill, who had criticized Chamberlain's appeasement policy after taking office, actually agreed and immediately closed the Yunnan-Burma Highway, which was evaluated by domestic newspapers as the British Far East appeasement.
"I heard that the principal cursed and said he hated the British the most. He said that the British were the most selfish and were as bad as the Soviet Union." Cheng Qianfan said.
"After this incident, the wife went to Citigroup to lobby the top leaders and the people of Citigroup, and to win the Citigroup to lobby the British and strive to reopen the Yunnan-Burma Highway." Cheng Qianfan said.
"The President of Citigroup approved a loan of $100 million to us and fifty fighter jets to alleviate our huge dilemma caused by the closure of the Burma Highway."
"It is precisely because of this that the Japanese are very dissatisfied with Citigroup." Cheng Qianfan said, "This is an extremely petty nation. Now they are venting their anger on the Chinese expatriates with ordinary Citigroup."
"You said, if the third brother is still alive, he can fly a plane assisted by Citigroup and attack the sky with eagles." Lu Xingge suddenly said, "How happy is the third brother."
Cheng Qianfan opened his mouth, and he raised his head, his mouth opened silently, but he couldn't speak.
Tears suddenly poured out of my eyes and couldn't stop them.
...
For several days.
Cheng Qianfan was so busy that he couldn't touch the ground.
On this day, he handled the documents on hand, breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on the back of the chair, put his feet on the desk, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
Liu Xia came in.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Liu Xia and ignored him.
"Now I know I'm tired of the case?" Liu Xia smiled. "In the past, Secretary Mid-Cheng enjoyed a happy life in Shanghai. I helped you with most of your work. Now I know how hard my sister works on weekdays and how much has helped you."
"Thank you." Cheng Qianfan put his eyelids on his face and hugged his fists without sincerity.
Seeing that Liu Xia had not left yet, he glanced at Liu Xia, "Sister Xia has something to ask me for?"
"I heard you know Lord Daquan?" Liu Xia asked.
"Takaya Oizumi from the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Japanese Cabinet?" Cheng Qianfan asked in surprise.
"It seems that I really met you." Liu Xia smiled.
"I don't know." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "A Japanese friend of mine knows this Lord Daquan, and I heard him mention this one."
He asked Liu Xia curiously, "Why did Sister Xia suddenly ask about this person?"
"This Lord Daquan held an exhibition," said Liu Xia. "The Secretary-General means that if the people in the ministry have nothing to do, they can go and support them."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Qianfan nodded in a clear way, "I am afraid that the few people who watch the art exhibition will be too embarrassed."
"I'm not talking." Liu Xia angrily glanced at Cheng Qianfan, "I'll go to the art exhibition in the afternoon, will you go?"
"Go, of course I've gone." Cheng Qianfan said hurriedly, "Artistic things are my favorite."
"I think you are lazy and hiding leisure." Liu Xia said sarcastically.
"If you see through it or not, you will still be a good brother." Cheng Qianfan yawned and said.
"You treat you at noon, and I will drive you to the exhibition in the afternoon." Liu Xia said.
As she said that, she pinched the fruit candy on Cheng Qianfan's desk, peeled the sugar coat, and stuffed it into her mouth, "You are a big man, you keep snacking candy all day long."
