Chapter 213 Let the Military Control Commission Take the Blame
"Just for this," Zheng Jiemin said with a big smile on his face, "Deputy Director Xu, don't be so angry. Anger can hurt your health."
"Come, let's go sit in the office and solve the problem if there is one."
"You have a bunch of people standing here but you can't solve the problem."
"Director Jiang, please clear out the conference room so we can chat for a while."
Jiang Yiying waved his hand tactfully, and the guards in the confidential room put away their guns and dispersed.
In the conference room, Zheng Jiemin and Xu Encheng were chatting casually.
They kept talking about this and that but the only thing they didn't talk about was when they would provide the list information.
Xu Encheng has been in the officialdom for so many years, and has worked in both the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation. You can tell from Zheng Jiemin's attitude.
He is now waiting for Boss Dai to give him final instructions.
Sometimes, certain things in official circles really cannot be discussed openly because they are illegal in themselves.
But that's the rule...
After chatting for about half an hour, a lieutenant came in hurriedly and whispered something to Zheng Jiemin.
Zheng Jiemin nodded slightly and said to Xu Encheng, "Deputy Director Xu, there is a lot of confidential information in the confidential room. It is not appropriate for you to go in and investigate."
"How about this? I'll make the decision and give you the list of potential lurkers in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, but I won't give you the detailed information. You have to identify them yourself."
Xu Encheng frowned. Although he was extremely reluctant, he also knew that Zheng Jiemin's doing this was already a big concession.
The confidential room is where the Military Intelligence Bureau stores confidential documents. How could they allow people from the Central Intelligence Bureau to go in and read them at will?
The other party is willing to hand over the list, which is obviously the final bottom line.
After thinking for a while, Xu Encheng smiled and said, "Brother Yaoquan is still so good at dealing with people. This is good. With this list, I can report to the higher-ups, and we won't hurt the relationship."
Peaceful? Haha, if there was any peace at all, you, the deputy director of the Central Bureau of Investigation, would not have brought a group of people to break into the confidential room.
Zheng Jiemin laughed it off and ordered someone to go to the confidential room to copy down the list of undercover agents and hand it over to Xu Encheng.
Military Office,
This time, the intelligence network in Shanghai was cleansed, and it was not only the Military Control Commission that suffered losses. Even the hidden base of the Central Control Commission was destroyed by the Special High Section.
The Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics' people broke into the Military Bureau of Investigation and Statistics' confidential room just to take advantage of the situation...
Obviously, this time the Central Bureau of Investigation wanted to put the blame for the destruction of its intelligence network directly on the Military Bureau of Investigation.
But what else can Boss Dai do since he knows he will have to take the blame?
It is a foregone conclusion that a traitor will stand out in the Shanghai Stock Exchange. No matter where the case is reported, even if it is a confrontation with the principal, they will be in the right.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Mao Feng remembered that there was a top-secret document in the confidential room, the "Trouble Plan". This plan was related to the future of the party and the country and must not be leaked easily.
Tang Zong thought about it again and again, and finally decided to call the Military Affairs Department. He then came up with a solution of only submitting the list but not the information, and thus got around the issue.
This time, not only did they lose the intelligence network of the Shanghai station, but they also lost face. The Military Control Commission was truly humiliated this time.
Shanghai, Plum Blossom Tower.
After reading all the information, Chen Yang was secretly surprised.
This time, the Zero Hour Operation was actually a joint operation between the Chinese Affairs Section and the Special High Section.
The Chinese Affairs Section targeted the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station while the Special High Section investigated the Central Control Commission's Shanghai Station.
Compared with the Military Intelligence Bureau, the Central Intelligence Bureau seemed to be in a worse situation. The station chief of the Shanghai station, Guo Shaokang, was beaten to death on the spot. The two action teams killed thirteen people and captured five. None of the members escaped.
It was really luck that a few people from the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station escaped. Intelligence liaison officer Hu Jiming accidentally discovered the spies who were following him when he returned to the headquarters.
Time was running out and he didn't have time to notify everyone, so he could only report to the action team leader Zhao Lijun.
Zhao Lijun acted decisively and, with the action team following behind, he took the stationmaster Wang Pucheng and the telegraphist Wu Kuiyuan and escaped through the secret passage.
"This operation was done very well," Chen Yang signed his name on the document and handed it back to Iwai Sadatoshi, saying, "After this operation, it seems that the Shanghai Stock Exchange will be much calmer in the short term."
"I will express your contributions to Madam."
Iwai Sadatoshi and Inukai Ken were extremely happy. Before they could say anything, He Yuehua's voice came from the door: "Report."
"Come in." Chen Yang looked up at He Yuehua and said, "What's the matter?"
He Yuehua said: "Sir, Mr. Ye Zhengxian seems to have something urgent to discuss with you."
Well, why did Ye Zhengxian come here at this time? Is there something wrong with the supplies?
Chen Yang frowned slightly and said, "Please ask him to come in."
Seeing that Chen Yang had a guest, Iwai Sadatoshi and Inukai Ken quickly took their documents and left.
"Commander Chen, something terrible has happened," Ye Zhengxian ran in breathlessly and said, "Several major chambers of commerce in Shanghai have been attacked. Some people say that we are colluding with the Japanese to hoard supplies."
"Didn't I tell you to slowly sell the supplies in a stable manner?" Chen Yang frowned and asked, "Did you raise the prices of the supplies without authorization?"
"No," Ye Zhengxian cried out in injustice.
"We have been following Chief Chen's advice and have been slowly increasing the price of materials within 10%..."
"Moreover, the goods outside are all under our control, and there is absolutely no excessive profit in selling them."
"What's going on?" Chen Yang was a little confused.
Ye Zhengxian took out a newspaper from his briefcase and handed it to Chen Yang, saying, "Chief Chen, take a look at this first."
Chen Yang took the newspaper handed to him by Ye Zhengxian, and after just a few glances at it, a name emerged in his mind.
Damn it, it's Kong Lingkan again, this troublemaker...
The matter is not complicated. Since Minister Kong fell, Kong Lingkan has taken over Yu Hongjun's position in Hong Kong Island and served as his chairman of the Central Trust Bureau in Hong Kong.
After he arrived in Hong Kong, he founded a magazine called "Financial Review".
He then started a newspaper, The Star, and used it to promote the government.
After the Battle of Guangzhou broke out, Kong Lingkan closely reported the entire process in a Hong Kong newspaper, and this newspaper also gained considerable readership in Hong Kong.
With the fall of Guangzhou, the international supply lines of the Nationalist government were cut off. Kong Lingkan keenly felt that this was another good opportunity to stockpile supplies and make a fortune.
The Kong family has no bottom line in doing things. On the one hand, they forcibly plunder supplies at low prices and hoard them, and on the other hand, they withhold supplies from the army in an effort to make a fortune.
Who would have thought that Chen Yang was even more ruthless and directly cut off the source of the problem by confiscating all the supplies from several major warehouses in Shanghai.
Kong Ling was so angry that he said that if he had no food to eat, then no one else should eat.
So they simply spread the word in the newspapers that several major chambers of commerce in Shanghai had joined forces with the Japanese to maliciously control the prices of materials, leading to inflation.
The masses who did not know the truth were fooled by this, and immediately became angry and surrounded the headquarters of several major chambers of commerce...
