The four of them have their own thoughts, and the wine was tasteless. Fortunately, there was still a way to not make up for this common topic, so we could slightly liven up the atmosphere.

Chen Zuyan took the initiative to raise the topic: "After the meeting, my family called and said that Chen Jiang was waiting for me at home. I gave him the excuse of something wrong and asked him to go back first!"

"It's the end of the year, I must be here to give money!" Chen Chao looked at Gu Zhenlong, "What kind of regulations is this year? Or will it not be accepted?"

"Cause!" Gu Zhenlong waved his hand and said proudly, "It's all done a lot, and I feel at ease with the money..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Chen Zuyan's sneer.

"What is his purpose in building this business? You and I know it clearly, and I am so embarrassed to say that I feel at ease when I collect money?"

"What can't be at ease?" Gu Zhenlong sneered, "Although you and I know the reason for the Central Plains, the brothers under my command don't know. Even if they say it out, who will believe it?"

The other three were silent.

The brothers under his command also want to eat to support the family. If you can’t eat enough, no matter how noble the righteousness is, it is useless.

And what Gu Zhenlong said is also very reasonable.

Open up the material transportation channels and avoid the Japanese army's blockade in advance?

If you say it, you may laugh out loud.

Although everyone speculated that they would definitely fight with the Japanese, who could tell the truth when and where to fight?

When fighting, it is not about playing chess with yourself. You can do whatever you want to place the battlefield. I am afraid that the gods will not dare to say which way, and which place will never be in the war zone.

At first, Gu Zhenlong and others didn't believe it either.

They just thought Fang Buwei had run this business, but wanted to get some money from themselves and a few close superiors, as well as a group of confidants and confidants. This was just a great excuse to say that.

But when Sihai Commercial Bank officially started trading, the goods were all in the way that could not be found on the map?

I asked Chen Jiang and said that Fang Bu didn't specifically explain it.

Chen Jiang even took out a map of the proven secret transportation route.

Only then did these people believe it.

Gu Zhenlong was almost moved and cried.

They never thought that there were such selfless people in the world?

Afterwards, we naturally spared no effort to support it.

Fortunately, these people are in a position and the local management is in place, otherwise the transportation costs of Sihai Commercial Bank will be doubled even further if it is a bandit.

"You have to do things when you collect the money. You can't even have a penny. You can distribute it all, so that the brothers below can do their best..." Chen Chao said.

"Do you share it all?" Gu Zhenlong sneered, "Do you know how much dividends will be this year?"

Gu Zhenlong gestured with a finger: "Ten thousand, not fiat currency, but US dollars!"

Chen Chao opened his mouth round, while Ma Chunfeng's eyelids twitched.

If Gu Zhenlong can get 10,000, then wouldn’t the Secret Service be 20,000?

These were all decided at the beginning, and the other three knew about it.

When the Sihai Commercial Bank was established, it was the time when the Secret Service was firm. Everyone knew that the money was not invested in Ma Chunfeng's pocket, but was used all in the Secret Service.

So no one had any objections at that time.

But today is different from the past.

After returning from Xi'an, the chairman not only settled the accounts after the autumn, he also specifically instructed him to approve the funds of the Secret Service in the future.

Chen Zuyan estimated that it would at least double the amount compared with previous years.

No one can blame this.

Even Chen Zuyan had to accept it. Ma Chunfeng really had a trick to deal with spy intelligence.

In comparison, He Qingnan is like a fool.

Ma Chunfeng pondered for a moment, raised his head and said, "I am now more affordable..."

"No need, follow the old examples, you should keep it all!" Ma Chunfeng was interrupted by Gu Zhenlong before he could say anything. "Speaking of this, Sihai Commercial Bank is also the business of your secret service. And you are familiar with people in Shanghai, so you can help you more..."

What Gu Zhenlong said was really not a polite word.

Most of the anti-smuggling and transportation departments in Shanghai have fallen into Ma Chunfeng's hands.

The Investigation and Insurgency Department of the Songhu Guard Command, the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway Investigation and Insurgency Department of the China Navigation Company, all of these three departments are now controlled by the Secret Service.

In addition to anti-smuggling, the latter two departments can adjust the ship if they want to transfer the ship, and if they want to transfer the train, they can adjust the train.

Especially Chen Haoqiu, who is now the director of the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway Investigation Office. As long as it is a train passing by Shanghai, it is only a matter of one sentence.

He has provided many conveniences to Chen Jiang this year.

Of course, even if you are a sworn brother, Fang Buwei will not take advantage of it in vain. He will give away what should be given and what should be done as usual.

Since the money has been collected, it will definitely not be collected in vain. Ma Chunfeng knew it in his mind, nodded, and nodded again.

"He Qingnan doesn't have to count on you!" Chen Zuyan sighed, "I will go and explain to you in person at the place!"

Because of the incident, He Qingnan was almost locked up. In the end, the Chen brothers pleaded for him and spared this prison disaster.

After being beaten by the chairman, He Qingnan was chased to Xi'an again.

There is also an anti-smuggling department for party mediation, and there are party representatives at or above the county level who are dedicated to party affairs, similar to party and mass secretaries in later generations.

If there is any friction or entanglement with the local officialdom, these people can also play a big role.

"When you negotiate these two days, see if you have any chance, I would like to mention privately that the joint anti-Japanese war must be united, but the real bandits must be eliminated in time!" Gu Zhenlong said in a joking tone, "Everyone said that as long as it is their rule, the rule of law will be absolutely clear and the singing and dancing will be peaceful... But why did this kid's caravan be robbed several times, and twice were not far from their territory?"

"If you really want to count it, it's closer to our territory?" Chen Chao said with a smile again, "Do you still have to question the Northeast Army?"

"Well, it's a problem!" Gu Zhenlong nodded and said to Ma Chunfeng, "The wind direction has changed. It's not certain whether the Northeast Army is a friend or an enemy. If you should restrain yourself, you should restrain yourself... I'll remind him tomorrow. If you don't, stop the business in the Northwest first!"

"Okay!" Ma Chunfeng nodded.

These four people knew exactly what was going on.

Chen Jiang asked Ye Xingzhong to run to the northwest with food, bedding, shoes, hats, and silver coins, and exchange weapons with deserters who were disbanded by the Red Army, and then sell the weapons to the Northeast Army and the Seventeenth Route Army.

Two times, the bandits in the mountains ran down to rob, but were snatched away by Ye Xingzhong.

The captured bandits sold them to the Northeast Army on their heads.

Of course, sometimes they also sell deserters, but they are not forced.

When Ye Xingzhong was helplessly driven by his superiors and was willing to join the army for dinner, he would also do ideological work to get him back to the army.

Of course, the Northeast Army must have returned, and they also collect money based on the head.

But now friendly forces suddenly become enemy troops, and the war broke out, so this business must not be done.

Fang Buwei didn't plan to do it for a long time. He planned to stop after the big votes before the end of the year and see what the trends were.

...

After two consecutive days of cloudiness, the sun finally came out. Ye Xingzhong got out of the nest and leaned against the slope to bask in the sun.

His face was already dark, and he was blown by the northwest wind for a winter, and it was almost the same color as the bottom of the pot.

Ye Xingzhong was feeling comfortable when a man in his forties came up.

"It's been two days since I was rejected, why haven't I seen the person who received the goods yet?"

Ye Xingzhong rolled his eyes: "If you are a bandit, you have to be aware of one move. What if it is not us, but the Central Army that is entering the suppression?"

"Since you are so afraid, why are you a bandit if you don't use a good soldier?" The man cursed, "A group of thieves have exchanged all their guns for food. Will you rob them with a fire stick in the future?"

"What do you care about him taking to steal it?" Ye Xingzhong cursed, "If they don't sell guns, what will I make?"

“That’s right…”

As soon as the man responded, a young man in dust climbed down the slope and ran over and said, "Shopkeeper, is the person coming?"

Ye Xingzhong rolled up, ran up the slope, and picked up the telescope.

On the hill five or six miles away, a bunch of people rushed down densely, at least in just over a hundred.

He wore a dog-skin hat and a military uniform from the Northeast Army.

Ye Xingzhong didn't say anything. When he got closer, he saw a bandit leader riding a horse in the lead, he put down his telescope.

It's indeed my own people.

"There are still horse riders? It seems that they are not very poor..." The man just muttered, and saw the dense crowds of people turning down from the mountain, and immediately exclaimed: "So many people?"

"I'm afraid of a ball?" Ye Xingzhong smiled, "Not to mention bandits, I'm not afraid of the Central Army..."

The man was just a horse gang and had no idea what Ye Xingzhong was squatting beside him. He really thought he was from a businessman.

It took an hour to walk five or six miles.

First, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and second, the number of people around the age of 100 still brings things.

Some five or six, or seven or eight, each pulling a rope and pulling a sledge.

There are everything above.
