Chapter 117: Connecting the North and the South, using public property for private purposes
Japanese villa area.
Li Xianshu seemed a little surprised by Chen Yang's arrival.
According to her estimation, it would take Chen Yang at least three to five days to convince himself to fully accept her "good intentions"...
Unexpectedly, in just one night, Chen Yang had already made his choice.
Of course, Li Xianshu did not begin to doubt Chen Yang's purpose because of his choice.
In her opinion, it is impossible for the Nationalist government to use the reputation of the entire government plus a Minister of Finance to cover up an undercover agent.
Not to mention Chen Yang, no one else could possibly receive such treatment.
Therefore, Li Xianshu still trusts her own judgment.
"Mrs. Yamamoto, I want to ask, what exactly does this special assistant and financial advisor do?"
Chen Yang played with the two letters of appointment and asked curiously, "I have never been an official, so I know nothing about these things."
"A special assistant naturally helps me do some things." Li Xianshu's answer seemed extremely vague.
Chen Yang frowned slightly and said, "I'm sorry, I still don't quite understand."
"What can I do for you with my skills?"
Li Xianshu said calmly: "The Chinese Affairs Department was established by my teacher, Miyamoto Koichiro, more than 30 years ago."
"The purpose of establishing this organization is to better study all the information about China and provide useful information assistance to the Imperial Military."
"We have planned many successful cases, including the establishment of the puppet Manchukuo in the Northeast, the attack on Huanggutun, and so on..."
Chen Yang opened his mouth in shock. These were major events that shocked the whole country, and he never thought that they were responsible.
"Uh, Mrs. Yamamoto, maybe you got the wrong person," Chen Yang thought, "I don't understand what you are doing at all."
"I probably can't help at all."
"You are not an expert in intelligence analysis, so of course you can't help," Li Xianshu raised her hand and made a calming gesture, saying slowly, "But our purpose is not just this."
"We also need to acquire more resources for the empire and expand our war preparedness."
"I have read the report about you. You are quite capable in material transportation management."
"We, the Black Dragon Society, also started out as a transportation company. We own more than 60% of the transportation ports in Japan. Even the Army Department relies on us."
"The imperial army has recently completed the encirclement of Xuzhou, and will soon be able to open up the north-south transportation line."
"At that time, some materials will be exported from Shanghai and directly delivered to the mainland, thus alleviating the pressure on the ports in the Pingjin area to transport materials."
"Moreover, after the north-south line is opened, it will be easier for us to provide material support to various regions..."
"So, I need to find a suitable person in the South to share my work..."
"You asked me to manage the transportation of materials. Are you serious?" Chen Yang's voice began to tremble with shock.
He originally started out as a black market businessman, and the most common things he had were supplies, but his biggest headache was the transportation of supplies.
Li Xianshu asked him to manage the transportation of supplies to the Japanese. Do you know what that means?
This means that as long as he stamps a stamp, the supplies in his hands will reach all parts of the country through the existing transportation network.
All smuggled goods will immediately become materials allocated by the military, and the escort personnel can pass through all enemy-occupied areas smoothly.
Others smuggle goods secretly and use connections to smuggle them out in every possible way.
He could openly put the supplies on the train and transport them to any place. Even if the Red Party was in Yan'an, he could deliver the goods to the door.
Even SF Express is not as awesome as him...
"You little rascal, I know what you are planning." Li Xianshu touched his forehead, looking helpless.
As soon as Chen Yang raised his butt, she knew what he wanted to do...
"Don't go too far in misusing public property for personal gain. If you cause public outrage, I won't be able to protect you."
This statement is obviously a warning to him, but the underlying message is that you can do it, but you can't do it blatantly.
As long as no one makes trouble for you, no one will cause trouble for you.
In other words, as long as he can deal with those people in the logistics department, he can deliver the supplies however he wants in the future.
"My aunt still loves me," Chen Yang immediately flattered her...
"However, can I not do this job as a consultant for the Finance Department?" Chen Yang said with a bitter face: "You know, I have never read any books on finance."
"You want me, an amateur, to command a group of professionals. Isn't this ridiculous..."
"Pfft." Li Xianshu smiled helplessly and said, "Chen Yang, have you ever heard of a prison theory?"
"Imagine a panoramic open prison, a circular building divided into many small cells, all facing a watchtower in the middle."
"The observation tower is surrounded by a circle of one-way glass, so you can see clearly from the inside to the outside, but you can't see inside from the outside."
"There is only one guard in the glass tower, but all the prisoners are very honest and dare not make any mistakes."
"Do you know why?"
"Why?" Chen Yang pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up and he said, "Because they don't know whether the guards are looking at them."
"That is to say, the guard's eyes may not have noticed him all this time, but conversely, does it also mean that he may have been staring at him all the time?"
"You are very smart..." Li Xianshu said, "That's your role. Otherwise, why wouldn't I let you be the Minister of Finance, but a financial advisor instead?"
“You don’t need to understand. As long as others think you understand, they won’t dare to mess around.”
"You have to know that the new government is made up of Chinese people after all. I still don't trust them."
"Okay, now that all the questions have been answered, when are you going to send these materials out?"
Chen Yang shook his head and said, "I don't plan to expose these materials..."
Li Xianshu was stunned for a moment, and her face changed instantly: "Are you kidding?"
Chen Yang waved his hand slightly and said, "Of course I won't treat your instructions as a joke."
"But I think even if I did expose this material, the effect it would cause would not be enough to achieve the desired effect."
"So, I found someone more suitable to do this?"
Li Xianshu frowned, wondering what this little rascal was up to.
Chen Yang took out a copy of Jinling Daily from his pocket, showed the cover to Li Xianshu and said, "You should read more newspapers."
"I took the things with me. I need some help with this matter. Can you help me arrange it?"
Li Xianshu looked at the news on the cover about "National Central University moving to the mountain city" and suddenly realized it.
"You little rascal, you can even think of such a loophole."
"Okay, go find Kuroda-kun, he'll help you arrange it..."
