Chapter 644: Key People
Chen Miao always maintained awe of war. Although he did not participate in many battles directly, he had seen the tragic war, and more than once.
War is the most powerless for ordinary people.
He has seen the scene of howling in the ruins with his wife and children holding his body, but more often, he felt powerless, dark, and even fear.
Although he had no good impression of the European powers, the ordinary people living on the European continent were somewhat innocent.
It’s like Chen Miao hated the Japanese invaders, especially those brutal Japanese soldiers, which were no different from wild beasts. Of course, many Japanese people were very kind, but they were often swept into this war and gradually destroyed their humanity.
"Mr. Wen, Tokyo organized a political and cultural exchange team this time, which was proposed by the Japanese Army Department. In addition to exchanging the cultures of Japan and China, it will also invite celebrities from the cultural circles in Shanghai to have an academic debate..." said Shilin Ryufu.
"Is this the desire to deny the five thousand years of inheritance of our Chinese in culture and history?" Chen Miao frowned slightly. This kind of exchange lies in jealousy.
"Yes, this time, all the people who came from the Japanese cultural circle are famous, but most of them support this war, including Shu Akira Okawa who advocates the Greater Asiaticism. So if you are not prepared, you are likely to lose in this deliberately arranged debate."
Chen Miao nodded, and his thoughts and philosophy were defeated. Although he would not be able to remember the national economy and people's livelihood for a while, the blow to the confidence of the entire nation is immeasurable.
This is another level of war.
"What can I do?" Chen Miao asked while making a move.
"Distribute the news in advance to make everyone ready. It is best to invite a few people with extremely high academic knowledge to come to Shanghai to take charge." Xilin Longfu said.
"No, these people are all treasures of our country. Once they come to Shanghai and are detained, it will be troublesome." Chen Miao said, "It's better to take the initiative to attack."
"Take an active attack?"
"These people have knowledge, but their private lives are not necessarily perfect. As long as we attack this aspect, we can benefit invincible."
"I always thought Mr. Wen was an upright and selfless person, but I didn't expect that you would be like this..."
"So useless means, right?" Chen Miao smiled self-deprecatingly, "There is no way. If there is a fair debate, it is not embarrassing to lose, but now it is obviously unfair. In this case, we can only use this method. No morality is as important as a country or a nation."
"Mr. Wen is really a kind person, but it is probably not easy to get the privacy information of these people." Xilin Longfu said.
"There is no need for accurate information, just catch the wind and shadows. If the news is too true, then there will be no effect." Chen Miao laughed.
"Well, what you need, just tell me." Xilin Longfu said that Chen Miao could not collect information from Japan.
"Mr. Xilin collected negative news about the members of this cultural exchange group in Japan in the past, so let's prepare first."
"Shan, Mr. Wen, you will lose if you lose your son."
"If you lose, you'll lose. I'm just playing chess for fun and change my mind." Chen Miao laughed, "Let's have another game?"
"Okay." Xilin Ryuu asked while packing the chessboard, "I don't know if Mr. Fujita has heard of the name Yoshimasa Fujita."
"Fujita Yoshimasa, I seem to have heard of it somewhere, what's wrong, is there anything special about this person?"
"This person's reputation in the Japanese intelligence community is not obvious, but his research direction is different from many people. His research direction is economic warfare." Xilin Longfu said, "Recently, this person was appointed by the base camp and came to Shanghai."
"This person is related to the counterfeit banknote case in North China?"
"Mr. Wen is really smart and he guessed the key at once." Xilin Longfu said, "The information I received from China, the 'Jiaozi' plan was proposed and led by this person. At present, it was just a current experiment in North China. It has made huge profits. The base camp will provide more and greater support to his 'Jiaozi' plan."
"That's why he wants to print more fake money and put it in China to search for our wealth?"
"It not only plunders wealth, but also disrupts the economy of Chongqing's controlled areas, but of course it also includes the anti-Japanese bases of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army." Xilin Longfu said.
"We already know this. As long as there are counterfeit money on the market, we will investigate and deal with it as soon as possible." Chen Miao said.
"What if you can't tell the fake money they made?"
"I'm afraid this is not an easy thing, right?" Chen Miao asked back.
"Of course it's not easy, but they are doing this. The news I know is limited. Yoshimasa Fujita is an economic adviser to the Wang Puppet Government. In fact, he is not in Nanjing, but in Shanghai, and is a guest of honor for many celebrities and prominent people in Shanghai's economic circles." Xilin Longfu said.
Chen Miao doesn't have much knowledge of economics, after all, his personal energy is limited.
What's more, there are so many Japanese in Shanghai who don't care about a specific person, and their manpower and material resources are not infinite.
"I will pay attention to the person you mentioned."
Xilin Longfu continued: "Shanghai is the financial center of China and even East Asia. If he wants to launch an economic war, Shanghai is the first base of choice."
"I think if Fujita Yoshi is trying to continue to make fake money and harm people, Professor Lan Yuhai will be the key figure."
"Oh, how do you know?"
"Lan Yuhai is not only an expert in gravure plate making, but also participated in the design of fiat currency. He is well aware of the anti-counterfeiting of fiat currency. At this moment, he was hired by the Wang puppet government as the chief designer of the currency of the Central Reserve Bank. He was not invited back by Wang, but a Japanese. Itomori came to Shanghai before and carried a box with him. There was a set of five-yuan fiat currency steel master in the mezzanine of the box." Chen Miao explained, "Also, not long ago, Fujita Yoshi was visiting Professor Lan in person. If you don't mention it, I really wouldn't connect these two people together."
"The fake money they made now has been discovered and they can't continue to circulate. They must replace a new one. The master version they copied by themselves is definitely not as good as the original version of Professor Lan, a participant. Mr. Wen, your inference is completely valid." Xilin Longfu said.
"Professor Lan is now under my protection. Logically, I have the best chance to get close to him, but once something happens to Professor Lan, I will inevitably be suspected, so I can't move for the time being. At least I don't think Professor Lan is like the kind of person who easily betrays the country. He will not know how great disaster will bring to his country if he helps the Japanese make fake legal currency." Chen Miao said, "This matter needs to be planned slowly."
"I am reminding you that you have destroyed Fujita Yoshi's plan in Shanghai this time. He will definitely pay attention to you. The reason why he has no action now is that he is still secretly investigating everything about you. This person, if he plans and then acts, and does not take action easily, will definitely be fatal." Xilin Ryuu said, "This is what my comrades in Japan told me. He asked me to remind Chinese comrades not to underestimate this person."
"I understand, thank you, Mr. Xilin." Chen Miao said sincerely. If Xilin Ryufu didn't remind him, he might really think of underestimating the enemy psychologically about Fujita Yoshima.
"I may not be able to come to this place in the future. We have to meet in another place, or I will notify you in time if I have any circumstances."
“Do you have a safe and suitable place?”
"There is a Yikang Pharmacy on Luban Road in the French Concession. It is a contact point set up by our Ramza team in Shanghai. It is also under the responsibility of your Chinese comrades. It is very safe. How can we meet there in the future?" Xilin Longfu said.
"Yes." Chen Miao nodded.
"You go first, and I'll stay for a while, so as not to cause doubt."
...
After leaving the Haisi Chess Club, Chen Miao got into the car.
"Check a Japanese man named Yoshimasa Fujita, I want his Shanghai activity trajectory." Chen Miao ordered Xiao Qi.
"What should I pay attention to?" Xiaoqi did not ask why.
"This person is very smart. Be careful when checking and don't let the other party figure you out." Chen Miao nodded and instructed.
"clear."
The Japanese tried hard to get an expert professor for Wang, but they did not have a good intention. They would not tell Wang about this kind of thing.
The puppet Wang is really made of without dignity.
...
"The third brother, Tang and Wan, the directors, are really working hard. The first battle has won." Back to the record of "Lin", Yan Shihong came to report the good news.
"Oh, how much is it collected?"
"Five thousand."
"At the beginning, I collected 5,000 yuan. It seems that the Lu family is quite rich." Chen Miao said with emotion.
"Five thousand is the total. According to the agreement, we will be given a commission of 20%, and we will only get 4,000." Yan Shihong explained.
"It's not bad. If you keep this money, no one can move it. I'm useful." Chen Miao ordered.
"I know, Brother Third, I will look forward to the money for you." Yan Shihong said solemnly.
"What's going on over 'Ruifeng'?"
"After the day before yesterday, some people left, but as Mrs. Xie paid the signed salary, people's hearts began to stabilize. However, the rice factory and flour factory had no raw materials and could not start work. Everyone was still very anxious. When transferring goods to other factories, they basically lost money and made a profit. Now the grain price is one price a day, and many people are reluctant to sell it and are unwilling to give "Ruifeng" goods." Yan Shihong said.
"Tell them that if you wait for another two days, wheat and rice will be available soon." Chen Miao ordered, "Everyone will repair the equipment in the past two days. When the wheat and rice arrive, we will start producing and we will promote our 'Ruifeng' brand at once." Chen Miao said.
"Yes, third brother."
