Chapter 797: When it comes to harvesting, who can compete with us?

Global Trade Chongqing Headquarters.

Global Trade bought its headquarters building in Chongqing at the end of the Anti-Japanese War. As soon as the war ended, the focus of Global Trade shifted to Shanghai, but a vice president, Bianchi, was still left in Chongqing.

The reason for doing so was that global trade had "tasted the sweetness" of collusion with the Japanese during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and had transformed from middlemen and brokers to powerful capital. Bianchi's mission in Chongqing was to make friends with all kinds of powerful people, take advantage of the characteristics of American capital, and carry out various high-profit business activities.

For example, not long ago, Global Trade invested 20 million US dollars and raised another 20 million US dollars in financing to do a big business.

But today, this big deal seems to have run into problems.

After Master Kong brought a group of young masters to find Bianchi, he anxiously said, "Mr. Bianchi, I need to withdraw this money! Now!"

"Mr. Kong, what happened?" Bianchi was stunned: "The money has been used up. It may not be easy to withdraw it now!"

Master Kong was shocked: "All used up? Not a single bit left?!"

"Of course." Bianchi said excitedly, "Master Kong, gentlemen, since everyone is here today, I would like to report the current progress to you--"

"At present, all 40 million US dollars have been spent. Those military factories that were eager to get rid of them have been taken over by us!"

"It cost a total of 41.28 million dollars - now the bargaining power is in our hands, Chief Zhang has no choice but to trade with us!"

"I remember Mr. Song told me that Chief Zhang still has more than 60 million US dollars in his hands. If this deal goes through, that means a profit of nearly 20 million US dollars. After deducting the expenses and my 60% profit from global trade, you can earn at least 10 million from the 20 million US dollars you invested!"

"In less than four months, we have earned 50% profit. Gentlemen, how is the return on investment this time?"

Bianchi looked very proud.

But Master Kong and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Because they are here to get the money.

Naturally, this investment had nothing to do with Zhang Anping - after Dai Chunfeng died in a plane crash, the gluttons began sharpening their knives, thinking about how to bite off a piece of fat from Zhang Anping.

When Mr. Kong was having dinner with Bianchi from Global Trade, he mentioned this matter. Bianchi was overjoyed and quickly came up with a way to make money by raising the price:

He bought some military factories that Meigong was planning to sell off before Zhang Anping did, so as to gain bargaining power. Then he could sell these factories to Zhang Anping - it would be a huge profit in one round trip.

As a result, a large number of young masters were attracted to participate in this project. After Young Master Song confirmed through his connections that Zhang Anping still had more than 70 million US dollars in his small treasury, Global Trade prepared to spend 40 million US dollars on this project.

But this kind of thing requires the capital of the powerful, so these young masters participated and eventually adopted a 50-50 investment and 60-40 profit-sharing approach.

The Taotie have money, but the current situation is that the money will depreciate at an explosive rate if it is held in their hands, so most of the money has been invested in other projects. It is too difficult to quickly raise 20 million, so they used their connections to embezzle the National Government's US dollar reserves.

But this matter was discovered. Fortunately, Zhang Anping handed over the treasury at this time, and the Taotie quickly took action to fill the hole of embezzlement. This is why they are so careless...

Originally, this money would have become a mess after circulating in the Ministry of National Defense for several times, but Zhang Anping pointed them out - they needed to fill the gap quickly, so they had to come to Bianchi together to ask for money.

But Bianchi had already invested all the money and could earn a 50% profit, so these young masters hesitated.

"Fifty percent interest, in US dollars. How about we think of another way?"

"Then think of another way!"

The young masters were unable to make any money from global trade and had to flee in all directions.

After this group of gluttons left, Bianchi gave a meaningful smile.

He was expecting these young masters to come back to him and ask him to withdraw his shares.

He, Bianchi, is a legitimate businessman. If these powerful people want to withdraw their shares, he certainly won't stop them, but he is a legitimate businessman and everything must be done according to the rules!
A 30% handling fee must be charged.

As for profit...

Oh, God, where will the profits come from to share with them if they have all withdrawn their shares?
[Zhang is right. This money has to be earned from the rich and powerful. They are just a bunch of fat sheep.]

……

After returning from his official residence in Lushan, Zhang Anping went home. Using the excuse that he was tired after a whole day, he simply washed up and went to bed.

After the two little ones fell asleep with their mother Wang Chunlian, Zhang Anping quietly crawled out of the house.

He wants to meet Minglou and Zheng Yaoxian.

Secret stronghold.

Ming Lou and Zheng Yaoxian arrived first. When Zheng Yaoxian saw Ming Lou, he joked:
"How does it feel to serve Lao Mao these days?"

Ming Lou smiled and said, "It's a good harvest."

Lao Zheng was stunned: "What did you gain?"

"Let's talk about this when Anping comes. We haven't consulted Anping on this matter, so I don't know if it will have an impact on Anping's arrangements."

Although Minglou thought his plan was good, he was actually a little uncertain because he didn't have Zhang Anping's approval.

Seeing that Minglou didn't want to talk for the time being, Lao Zheng didn't care. Instead, he smiled and asked:
"I heard that you are being urged to get married!"

Ming Lou said helplessly: "In the past, the Military Control Commission did not allow marriages. Now that the ban is lifted, everyone wants to be a matchmaker!"

Zheng Yaoxian laughed loudly: "Why don't you pick one?"

Ming Lou shook his head: "Forget it, it's easy to cause problems."

At this time, a charming voice came from outside: "Hehe, I heard two old bachelors are anxious to get married."

Zheng Yaoxian's expression suddenly changed, and he instinctively reached for the pistol behind him. Minglou grabbed Old Zheng and said, "It's Anping."

Zhang Anping had come in while they were talking. His dress that looked like a prostitute made Zheng Yaoxian stunned. Minglou said unhappily:

"Can you change your makeup?"

You were just charming before, but now you look like a womanizer. Aren’t you afraid that the bewitched old man will mistake you for a girl from a brothel and take you away?

Zhang Anping pulled off the wig and put it on the table. He sat down and took off his high heels. While rubbing his feet, he thought:
"It's time to find a home for Ming Lou. After all, he's the hottest guy around Lao Mao, and it's not good for him to be single all the time."

Lao Zheng said without hesitation: "I agree."

Ming Lou thought for a moment and said, "Let's arrange a comrade from our side, otherwise I won't feel at ease."

"Then let's go to Jiang Xin - how about it?"

"She?" Ming Lou hesitated: "Okay."

Jiang Xin is a comrade on Mingcheng's line and is now working in the secretariat. She has dealt with Minglou several times, so it is reasonable for her to have a "romance" with him.

Zhang Anping withdrew his gaze from Minglou, looked at Zheng Yaoxian, and said with a smile:
"Old Zheng, how is your character now?"

"To be honest, this arrogant and domineering personality is indeed helpful in getting things done, but Zheng Yaoquan is now in charge of the job, so I'm afraid I'll be slaughtered like a chicken."

Zheng Yaoxian asked: "Do you have any way to help me get through this crisis?"

Zheng Yao was first a supporter of Mao Renfeng, but because of his growing power and the fact that he was more powerful than his master, whenever he saw Mao Renfeng he kept calling him "Old Mao" and was very arrogant and domineering.

But he thought that since Zheng Yaoquan was now also the director, he might have a hard time.

Zhang Anping analyzed: "No, Zheng Yaoquan can't rely on Mao Renfeng alone to balance the power. He will simply suppress you and then subdue you, and use you and Mao Renfeng to balance me, and you can also balance Mao Renfeng."

Lao Zheng and Ming Lou are both very capable, but in terms of political tactics, they are far behind Zhang Anping. Now that Zhang Anping said this, they naturally have no objection.

"Okay, after he suppresses me, I will join him."

Zhang Anping smiled and said, "Well, he is from the same family after all. He might take care of you."

"He and I are not from the same family." Zheng Yaoxian did not admit it - Zheng Yaoxian was not his real name, but this name was destined to accompany him throughout his life.

But he had already "forgotten" his real name!

"By the way, since Minglou has to get married, you shouldn't fall behind, you should get things done with Cheng Zhener!" Zhang Anping said seriously with "selfish motives".

Zheng Yaoxian frowned: "She is from the Central Bureau of Investigation."

Cheng Zhener is one of us, a comrade developed by Zheng Yaoxian, but she is lurking in the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.

After the two fell in love, they naturally reported it to each other, but because of her special status, Zheng Yaoxian couldn't marry her even if he wanted to.

"It's not a big problem. Ye Xiufeng and I have reconciled. The Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation will not be too hostile in the future. You are now an arrogant and domineering person. It's no big deal to marry a Central Bureau of Investigation wife."

Looking at Zhang Anping, Zheng Yaoxian frowned and asked, "You asked me to create an arrogant and domineering personality. Is this related to this?"

Zheng Yaoxian knew Zhang Anping too well.

When the Military Control Commission was about to issue family rules, Zhang Anping's men got married in a wave of emergency marriages. Chen Ming and Yu Xiuning, Lin Nansheng and Zhu Yizhen, Yu Zecheng and Zuo Lan were all married in an emergency at that time. Many of them didn't have a partner, but their marriages were recorded in the files.

This is also the reason why Zhang Anping's direct subordinates are loyal to him. Who wouldn't like a leader who is willing to seek benefits for his subordinates?

"You think too much - this matter is settled, this is an order!"

Zhang Anping simply used the magic weapon of "one level higher in rank" to crush others to death. Old Zheng smiled bitterly at first, and then said sincerely:

"Thank you."

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm just worried that you'll be forced to get married like Ming Lou. Okay, let's get down to business."

Zhang Anping skipped over this and got down to business:
"Today I went to the attendant's room to file a complaint, and on the way I met Master Kong..."

Zhang Anping talked about the reason for his complaint. After he finished talking about what happened with Mr. Kong, he said:

"According to my guess, that person will most likely hand this matter over to Zheng Yaoquan. Old Zheng, after you are suppressed by Zheng Yaoquan, go and seek refuge with him. He will definitely support you at that time. It is possible that you will be asked to investigate this matter yourself. I have given you the tape in Mr. Kong's hand, and you will hand it over to that person at that time."

"Increase loyalty! No problem with that!" Zheng Yaoxian couldn't help laughing. He remembered how the two of them drove from Shanghai to Nanjing in a hurry. When it came to increasing loyalty, he only admired Zhang Anping.

It is said that if Zhang Anping had not helped him to improve his loyalty, Zheng Yaoxian might not have had a place among the giants of the Military Control Commission.

After explaining this matter, Zhang Anping talked about another plan:

The layout for the Taotie.

This matter was handled by him alone without informing the two of them, but now it will be their responsibility, so he needs to explain.

After Zhang Anping finished speaking, Zheng Yaoxian, who did not quite understand how business worked, simply thought that Zhang Anping was "money laundering". The more than 60 million US dollars in his hands would be laundered to Global Trade, and that 20 million US dollars had been "embezzled".

But Ming Lou is the eldest son of the Ming family. He is not ignorant of business, but is proficient in it. He was surprised and said:

"You have a big appetite! After this wave, the loss of those Taotie will be at least 20 to 30 million. Add to that your efforts, hiss... at least 40 million US dollars in profit!"

Zheng Yaoxian was stunned: "Forty million? Why is it so much?"

Minglou explained:

"If the Taotie want to fill the gap, they have to deal with their assets, and when they do, the value will inevitably be discounted. We can't let them deal with it easily. After all this trouble, the value will be reduced by at least 30% to 40%. "

"Given Anping's personality, he will definitely force them to withdraw their shares in Global Trade. Withdrawal will lead to a loss, probably about 20%."

Zhang Anping corrected: "30%."

"Tsk, to make up the 10 million dollars, they have to spend at least 15 million. And once they withdraw their shares, Global Trade will leak some false information, and the remaining money will probably be postponed. After withdrawing 20 million, they will be left with 6 million, and they won't even get to share the profits."

"The deal will be done when the time comes. Forty million will be changed to sixty million, and we will get more than twenty million. The six million is net without the 30% profit of the buyer, so it will easily be forty million!"

Minglou was convinced that Zhang Anping had to do this business!
He thought his elder sister was amazing enough in business, and previously believed that Zhang Anping was so able to make money because he had blocked the key channels.

But now he is completely convinced!
Zheng Yaoxian was also shocked by this algorithm. Forty million U.S. dollars were taken out so easily?

He suddenly realized: "No, there is a factory!"

"Fuck!" Minglou, who rarely swears, swore.

Yes, there are factories!
The entire military industry migration cost about 120 million US dollars. Zhang Anping had calculated with them before that the organization had a great chance of winning in the Northeast. Once the Northeast was taken, these factories would be...

We drop!
The two of them were breathing heavily. Okay, they were playing such a big game!
Zhang Anping was very calm. After working hard for more than ten years, wasn't it time to reap the rewards?
After farming for eleven years, what's wrong with harvesting a few hundred million?
He said to Ming Lou, "You must go to the northeast! I will send Gu Shenyan to compete with you then."

The Military Control Commission was undergoing reorganization during this period, and there was chaos from top to bottom. But as soon as the reorganization was completed, the golden nest of Northeast China would naturally become the key to the fight between Zhang Anping and Mao Renfeng.

Mao Renfeng would never let Zhang Anping enjoy the fruits of victory alone, nor would she let the Northeast region become Zhang Anping's base.

Ming Lou is his close confidant. If Ming Lou is allowed to go there, he can become the head of the Northeast Headquarters Inspectorate (Northeast Region) and compete for the right to speak.

Zhang Anping sent Gu Shenyan to confront him head-on. This was bound to be a...wonderful "melee"!
Ming Lou nodded solemnly: "I understand!"

The Northeast is a key node and must be held in our hands. Once the Northeast changes color, the foundation laid by Zhang Anping will become a nightmare for the National Army.

Ming Lou said at this time: "Anping, there is something I need to report to you."

"what's up?"

"A few days ago in the ward, Mao Renfeng tried to use some means to blackmail his subordinates, and I gave him some advice..."

Ming Lou talked about his advice to Mao Renfeng, and then he stated his purpose:

"I plan to let the Military Control Commission invest in the organization's factories and chambers of commerce. With this relationship, our comrades can go undercover and be protected by the Military Control Commission. What do you think?"

Zheng Yao first looked at Ming Lou, then at Zhang Anping, with only one thought in his mind:
Could you two... stop being so exaggerated?

Using the Military Control Commission to cover up the organization, how the hell did they come up with this?

Dai Chunfeng, I’m afraid he’s going to come back to life!

"That's exactly what I meant. I have reached a settlement with the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics before. The struggle between the two sides will no longer affect related industries. Haha, you can go ahead and do it boldly. The agents of the Military Bureau of Investigation and Statistics are too poor. It's time for them to enjoy themselves. Well, we should treat everyone equally and evenly. The Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics should do the same in the future."

Zhang Anping had a big smile on his face. Why should we catch communists in this world? Whether it is the Military Control Commission or the Central Control Commission, isn't it better to make money?
But there is one principle:
Make money in mainland China and spend it in mainland China, and once you get some, you want to take it out!

After the three of them discussed the next course of action, they ended this secret meeting.

Before the meeting ended, Zhang Anping asked Minglou:

"Has Lao Cen gone back?"

"No, Lao Cen doesn't want to go back. He wants to help us with our work in secret."

Zhang Anping frowned:
"Nonsense!"

Cen Yuyan was previously the head of the Propaganda Section and had been working in Shanghai. At the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan, after the Propaganda Section made a big move, it withdrew to Chongqing along with the Bagua newspaper. Later, it was upgraded to the Propaganda Department, and he was considered a core backbone of the Military Control Commission.

So many people know him, and it is too dangerous to stay in Chongqing!

Ming Lou saw that Zhang Anping was angry, so he said:
"Anping, Lao Cen believes that our intelligence group must have a thread, and he is that thread. If he goes back, the thread will be broken - now is the critical moment, no one can replace him, he can't go back!"

"I think he's right - without Lao Cen, it would be difficult for us to communicate with other comrades. It would take at least a year or two for anyone to effectively replace Lao Cen."

Zhang Anping is the core and soul of the No. 2 Intelligence Group, but the No. 2 Intelligence Group has never fought alone.

Because of the special nature of the No. 2 Intelligence Group (high level), in order to avoid accidental harm to comrades, there must be a suitable line to connect with other comrades. It is really difficult for anyone to do all this in a short period of time.

Only Lao Cen.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Anping said:

"You're right. It's not easy for me to come out right now. Go tell Lao Cen to protect his own safety. This line is too important and there must be no problems!"

"Also, let Lao Cen prepare another line. We can't let any link get stuck."

"I see."
