You just burned down the warehouse on Building Materials Street, but you also want to burn down the Sihang Warehouse?
no……
This is how you do it...
Lawless!
a long time……
Only then did consciousness gradually wake up.
Song Shouyuan seemed to be waiting patiently for him to accept everything he said.
Zhang Yong swallowed.
"To settle the accounts?"
"Yes."
"Can't we wait until the end of the year?"
"cannot."
"Why?"
"The party executive committee may send someone to do an accounting."
"oh……"
Zhang Yong responded slowly.
Got it. It’s another battle between the top bosses.
To be precise, it was Lao Jiang and Lao Wang who were secretly fighting each other.
Of the two of them, one holds military power and the other holds party affairs. Neither of them is willing to admit defeat.
Wang Zhaoming has no military power and cannot intervene in the military. However, he controls the party affairs, the executive committee, and the legislative committee. There are also many people who follow him. Many of them are veterans of the Kuomintang Party. They have formed a quite powerful group.
group. Otherwise, Wang Zhaoming would not be able to become the second-in-command of the Fruit Party!
It would be easy for them to cause some trouble for Chiang Kai-shek elsewhere. People there knew about the bad things going on with the Song family and the Kong family. Once they were forced out, it would not look good on Chiang Kai-shek's face.
.So, we still have to find a way to deal with it. We can’t let the other party take advantage of it.
Burning warehouses has been the most commonly used means of settling accounts for thousands of years.
A fire burned all the evidence.
Without evidence, you can get away with it.
And he, Zhang Yong, was pulled out just right at this critical moment...
The result is……
The great sage who settles the accounts is actually myself!
First, take a look at the list and see what's on it. See how much of the deficit needs to be settled.
As a result, I was shocked at first sight.
3.3 million pieces of cotton cloth...
Licking lips.
My mouth feels a little dry.
More than three million pieces of cotton cloth. How many warehouses did you burn?
No, do you really think that the people on the executive committee are all fools? A few warehouses can hold more than three million pieces of cotton cloth?
Oh, look carefully. It turns out that twenty-seven warehouses were burned. It was a continuous fire.
Look up and look around. Twenty-seven warehouses, that's more than half of the building materials street.
Okay, I can barely put it into perspective...
Read on...
Fifty-eight thousand tons of grain...
faint!
And there are more than 50,000 tons of grain?
No, don’t be like this! Don’t pile them all up here and level them all at once!
Can we separate them? A few thousand tons at a time.
You are going to settle 58,000 tons in one breath. Is my signature, Zhang Yong, really that convincing?
He raised his head and looked at Song Shouyuan. He said bluntly, "The quantity is too large."
"There is nothing we can do about it." Song Shouyuan replied in a low voice, "The action over there was too fast, and we had no time to prepare."
"You guys should arrange more places to start fires..." Zhang Yong started thinking.
Suddenly I felt like I was really a disaster.
It was the first time I did something like this, and I learned it by myself without a teacher.
Could it be that the skill tree was misaligned when traveling through time? Will I be the leader among the bad guys in the future?
"It's all arranged. Look at the back."
"oh……"
Zhang Yong looked at the back.
Well, there was also a warehouse fire in Qingpu. There was also a fire in Suzhou.
Then it's all concentrated here.
You really treat the people on the party side as fools. It's obvious that you are fooling them.
Can you give me another reason?
Don’t just focus on fire.
but……
That's okay. Since the Song family thinks it's okay to do this, then let's do it. If they really fight, it's all the boss's business.
Keep reading…
There will be no bulk cargo later.
Tobacco and other things are shameful. Of course, they cannot be reflected in the accounts.
Zhang Yong speculated that the tobacco sold secretly by the Song family might be in the name of food. The same was true for the Kong family. It was an unspoken rule.
The next list will be a mess.
Huh?
Radio?
Fifteen movies?
Zhang Yong suddenly discovered the New World.
etc!
Fifteen radio stations?
Why does the radio station have a loss?
Did you also sell the radio station?
Faint!
"Tell me honestly, how many radio stations did you take away?"
"It was recorded that there were fifteen units. But only five units actually arrived."
"Where are the other ten?"
"When the money came in, it was immediately converted into US dollars and deposited."
"What about the fifth one?"
"All sold..."
"Well……"
Zhang Yong then stopped asking.
At the same time, I felt that I still had too little experience before.
The strange current situation he witnessed in the 30 years of the Republic of China may have only begun now. Only now can he really come into contact with the tip of the iceberg.
Where did those radio stations go in the end?
It would be strange if not one or two fell into the hands of the Red Party.
Okay, it's okay.
You can relax a little more in the future.
If there are any extra radio stations, give them directly to the Red Party. There is no need to worry about anything happening.
The Song family secretly sells radio stations themselves! Who dares to investigate?
The Party Affairs Investigation Department dares to investigate? Haha. Welcome.
After checking and checking, I found the Song family.
Well, when I had a chance to say hello to the Red Party, I told them that the radio station came from Building Materials Street...
"Uncle..."
Zhang Yong:……
All right.
What else can be done?
They all call me uncle. Can I still not sign this?
The ninth inspector may be dedicated to this purpose. He is dedicated to protecting the Song family from wind and rain. He is a scapegoat.
"Pen."
"This this."
Zhang Yong took the pen and made a big stroke.
Swish, swish, sign your name.
okay.
mission completed.
"Set the Sihang Warehouse on fire tonight?"
"Yes."
"List."
"At this."
Song Shouyuan had indeed prepared a list.
Zhang Yong:……
Sure enough, part of the ledger was destroyed...
Some of the legal currency was burned, with an estimated value of 12 million...
"Twelve million?"
"Yes."
Zhang Yong:……
Speechless.
How long does it take for legal currency to be issued?
It was only officially released at the end of last year! It’s less than a year!
How dare you make a loss of 12 million.
Then I realized that this was not a simple loss.
How to put it? It is a part of the legal currency that is printed and needs a reason to enter the market.
Since 12 million has been burned, it is reasonable to replenish 12 million, right?
However, God knows how much of the "burned" 12 million has flowed into the market. Maybe there are as many as 10 million. This is equivalent to the issuance of an additional 10 million legal tender.
In just half a year, tens of millions of additional fiat currencies have been issued!
Can there be no inflation?
Buying a cow now only costs ten yuan in French currency.
But by 1940, buying a cow cost at least one hundred French coins.
In more than three years, the legal currency has devalued by 90%...
Huh?
Not much, it seems?
Later it depreciated even faster and almost turned into papyrus.
"Pen……"
"Uncle?"
"I'll sign now. Can you guys see if there's anything else you need to add?"
"this……"
Song Shouyuan suddenly felt that this uncle really knew how to behave.
obedient.
real.
Very well-behaved.
With one stroke of his pen, all the accounts were settled.
At the end of the year, it was done again. Then with another stroke of his pen, the accounts were evened out again.
You can check it with Party Affairs.
If you want to check, go check Zhang Yong first.
Zhang Yong is the inspector. His signature is the final conclusion because there is no other inspector with a higher level than him.
Wonderful!
Zhang Yong took the pen.
A big stroke of the pen. Swish, swish, swish. Continue to sign.
Sign with your head down.
What?
And burned $50,000?
Feeling a little less?
Only fifty thousand?
Oh, and there are five million reserve coupons...
What the hell is this.
Forget it. I'm too lazy to ask. Anyway, just keep your head down and sign.
From then on, he changed his name to the Great Sage Ping Zhang.
If anyone needs to settle accounts, please come to me.
I signed with my eyes closed.
Free.
Done.
knock off.
Suddenly I remembered something.
"You said, if Sihang Warehouse is burned tonight, is it a real burning or a fake burning?"
"Gonna burn some of it."
"What happens after it's burned? Will it be rebuilt?"
"Of course. Uncle, the application form for reconstruction will be submitted the day after tomorrow."
"Burn it tonight and apply for reconstruction the day after tomorrow?"
"Yes."
"Then do you have any design drawings? Show them to me."
"Design drawing? No."
"Find a designer and draw a picture."
"Uncle, what are you..."
"The budget for reconstruction can be larger. Is there a basement originally? Is the basement connected to the outside world? Have the effects of force majeure such as war, earthquakes, heavy rains, etc. been considered..."
"understand."
Song Shouyuan immediately beamed. This uncle is on the right track!
learn by analogy.
Integrate everything.
I immediately grasped the essence of reconstruction.
That means everything is arranged. First get the money. Then...
Once you have the money, it's up to you how to rebuild it.
"Also, have you considered storing some strategic materials inside?"
"understand."
"In case there is an army that needs to be stationed there for a year and a half, we will consider it."
"Okay, okay."
Song Shouyuan's smile became even brighter.
Sure enough, everyone said that this new uncle is a first-class philanthropist.
When I saw it today, it certainly lived up to its reputation.
This method of making money puts even a veteran like him to shame.
If you want to mention military garrisoning, then garrisoning 5,000 people for one day would cost a lot. The budget would have to be doubled several times!
The key is, the teacher is famous!
What if there really is a war? Can you still make the troops run out of food?
Yes, this is another huge sum of money...
"Uncle, I will go back immediately to revise the reconstruction report."
"good."
Zhang Yong nodded.
He had no idea what Song Shouyuan was thinking.
I just suddenly thought of the Eight Hundred Warriors next year and thought I could provide them with some help.
When it comes to fighting, Zhang Yong is definitely not capable of it.
It's important for people to be self-aware. Since you can't fight the Japanese aggressors head-on, you can do some assistance.
Build the Sihang Warehouse into a strong fortress, and then build an underground passage to facilitate communication with the outside world. This will allow you to last longer.
As for the rest, there's nothing you can do about it. His abilities are indeed limited and he can't change too much.
"What time will you start tonight?"
"One o'clock."
"Okay. I understand."
Zhang Yong waved his hand and led the team back.
Mad, for no reason gave himself the title of Great Sage of Settlement.
However, the relationship with the Song family has indeed become closer.
The one my uncle calls sweet...
Perhaps, soon, the Kong family will also come to visit.
The Kong family should also have some accounts that need to be settled and covered up...
Return to 026 Logistics Base.
By chance, Shi Bingdao was there, so he called him over.
He also talked about the fire on the Building Materials Street and the preparations for a fire in the Sixing Warehouse.
"You can get some radio stations."
"Black market radio stations are very expensive. We can't afford them."
"Let me know when you go to buy it."
"you want……"
"You give me money. Take away the radio station. Then I'll go get the money back."
"this……"
Shi Bingdao was speechless.
This Zhang Yong is really...
The road is too wild.
But don’t tell me, he really dares to do it!
His ability is very strange. If he really focuses on the target, he can really steal it.
Then the money came back.
"This is ten thousand dollars. I'll lend it to you for a while. Then I'll find a way to get it back."
"All right……"
Shi Bingdao agreed.
It seems that this is not a violation of principles.
He didn't really want Zhang Yong's money. The money would eventually return to Zhang Yong's hands.
But got the radio station. The organization needs the radio station very much.
I feel like I have been led astray by Zhang Yong. However, they really need the radio station!
Lu Hai arrives.
"Team leader, Director Kong from the Ministry of Finance, please call back."
"oh?"
Zhang Yong's mind moved.
So fast?
Just now I was thinking that the Song family might be looking for me. Unexpectedly, the call came immediately after me.
Okay. Since everyone has signed for the Song family, the Kong family has to sign too. Who cares who he is?
I only ask myself to sign everything.
Swish, swish, swish!
The great sage who settles accounts, the cannon of the world, the first level of preparation...
Come and answer the phone.
"Director Kong, are you looking for me?"
"Commissioner Zhang..."
"Don't dare, Director Kong, you should just call me Shaolong."
"Then you call me Brother Fang. My name is Brother Fang."
"Brother Kong Fang..."
"Okay, okay, okay, I like this title!"
Zhang Yong:……
Boy, this is a great name.
No wonder the Kong family is in charge of the Ministry of Finance. It turns out that someone just calls him Brother Kong Fang!
"Brother Kong Fang, let's talk face to face."
"I'm at Sihang Warehouse. Is it convenient for me to come over?"
"good."
Zhang Yong agreed.
I happened to go to Sihang Warehouse to have a look.
So he took the team and headed to Sihang Warehouse.
Arrived quickly.
Sihang Warehouse is right on the edge of the concession. Next to it is the Suzhou River. The location is a bit special.
When the Japanese invaders attack next year, they can only attack from one side and dare not use artillery fire because artillery shells will fall into the concession at any time.
The relationship between the Japanese invaders and Britain and the United States was to test each other's bottom line. Therefore, the Japanese invaders did not dare to use artillery.
From a tactical point of view, the Four Lines Warehouse has many advantages. The only disadvantage is that it is besieged and cut off from the outside world.
If the underground passage is arranged in advance to communicate with the outside world, then it will be fine.
Provide assistance directly from within the concession.
He, Zhang Yong, happened to have some forces in the concession...
Enter the Sihang Warehouse.
It's bare on the outside and very shabby on the inside.
Of course, a warehouse cannot have luxurious decoration. But the walls are very strong.
The 3D map shows that the thickness of the wall is more than one meter. A few pillars are even as thick as 5 meters, which is more than enough to withstand light weapons.
The Japanese invaders' 92 infantry artillery may not be able to blow open the wall.
Even the common 75mm field cannon may not be able to explode.
"Shao Long."
"Brother Kong Fang."
"please."
"please."
Kong Fansong asked Zhang Yong to sit down.
Then he looked at Zhang Yong and smiled, as if he was getting acquainted with him again.
"Brother Kong Fang..."
"I heard that the Song family calls you uncle?"
"Well……"
Zhang Yong nodded.
It seems that Song Shouyuan is indeed called that.
In fact, I and Song Ziyu are not officially married. My uncle called me a little early.
"Then we are a real family."
"I'm still not used to this..."
Zhang Yong told the truth.
I feel like my path is definitely on the wrong track.
I originally wanted to run into the light, but ended up walking further and further into the darkness.
I don't know why this happens either.
It's so miserable now that they have all become members of the four major families of Jiang, Song, Kong and Chen. From now on, the reactionaries mentioned in history books will have their own share...
well……
It must be the wrong way to travel...
“You’ll get used to it gradually.”
"oh……"
"It's a pity that the Song family took the lead. Otherwise, our Kong family also has good girls."
"Well……"
Zhang Yong thought it would be better to bring the topic back to the main topic.
So we talked about settling the accounts.
"The Executive Committee is coming very hard, and we have to guard against it."
"Is it like Building Materials Street?"
"It's not necessary. Just report a loss. Just say that the ship encountered rough waves at sea..."
Zhang Yong nodded.
That’s right! It can’t always be a fire.
You can say that the scallop ran away or something. It doesn't matter whether others believe it or not, as long as there is a reason.
So sign!
Continue to sign...
Sign repeatedly...
In one breath, all the accounts of the Kong family were settled.
I vaguely remember that three ships sank and more than a dozen warehouses collapsed due to heavy rains...
The Song family suffered a fire and the Kong family suffered a flood. They all survived.
Kong Fansong waved his hand and asked all family members to retreat.
Zhang Yong:???
What's the secret?
Or do you want to give me money?
Kong Fansong whispered: "Are you looking for an American?"
"Yes." Zhang Yong nodded, "But there is no specific identity information. I only know the code name Heather. There are also people from the Beautiful Country who came here to look for me."
"Did someone tell you that there was a reward of half a million dollars?"
"right."
"Maybe it's a trap."
"What?"
Zhang Yong raised his eyebrows.
pit?
What pitfall?
I got $10,000 myself.
If it was really a scam, these ten thousand dollars would be given to me in vain.
Even if you beat him to death, you can't return it.
"When I say pitfalls, I don't mean that things are false or that they are dangerous. But..."
"But what?"
"I suspect that the person you are looking for is not an American."
"oh?"
Zhang Yong's mind moved.
Not an American? Who is that?
I felt something was wrong before. Mainly the jade necklace.
Frankly speaking, jade is a regional jewelry.
Except for the Orientals who know, appreciate and love jade, there seems to be nothing that foreigners like.
The foreigners have rubies, emeralds, diamonds and the like.
Oh, it’s so nerve-wracking...
Fortunately, he didn't even bother to think about it.
Who does it matter who he is looking for? It doesn’t matter if he finds the best one.
Anyway, I have already bought 10,000 US dollars. I will definitely not suffer any loss.
Suddenly my mind moved.
A red dot appears on the edge of the map. It is marked.
Check.
I found out that it was actually Lin Xiaoyan.
Accident.
She actually showed up?
Wasn't she being hunted? Why did she return to Shanghai?
Keep calm.
Observe quietly.
I discovered that Lin Xiaoyan had entered the concession.
It was heading in the direction of Madiel Hotel, and finally disappeared at the edge of the map.
Well, she's still alive. Pretty good.
"Shao Long."
"Um?"
"this is for you."
"What?"
Zhang Yong reached out and took it.
It was an envelope. There was a check inside.
oh……
Got it. This is the reward.
The Great Sage who settles the accounts is the Great Sage who settles the accounts. There must be some benefit to you in settling the accounts.
Sun Houhou has settled the debts of so many people. Who dares not to ask people to help in the future?
Convention.
When you are ready, you will be rewarded.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to find a great sage who is so willing to cooperate next time!
