Chapter 677 Someone is playing dirty tricks
"There is always sunshine after the storm, Editor-in-Chief, do you think this Prince Investment is crazy? They bought our second edition just to publish this sentence?"
"Xiao Guo, you still have too little experience. This is called eye-catching advertising. Didn't you see what will be posted tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow? Tomorrow it's 'Please Believe in Rainbows', the day after tomorrow it's 'Prince Enterprise Rainbow Plan', and the day after tomorrow it's a long article explaining what the Rainbow Plan is... Tsk tsk, this Prince Investment is interesting."
Francesca sat in her office with the sheet music of "There Always Sunshine After the Rain" on the table and information about the Director of the Department of Education, Chen Xueping, in her hand, thinking about how to establish this relationship and spread the song to every school in Taiwan.
"Form 1A?"
"Have."
"Fuel transfer valve and switch?"
"Both valves are closed, the switch is off."
"Intercooler?"
“The intercooler is cold.”
"Gyroscope?"
At the Repulse Bay parking dock of ITS, a subsidiary of Jinji Commercial Bank, a PBY Catalina seaplane is undergoing pre-takeoff inspection.
The PBY Catalina was the most widely produced and used seaplane during World War II, with anti-submarine, reconnaissance, and transport functions. After the end of World War II, thousands of them were facing retirement, and the United States began selling them. An aircraft that cost $9 to build could be had for only $ to $ second-hand.
ITS bought five aircraft at a price of $2.4 each, nominally all of which will be used for sightseeing services.
The plane took off and flew for more than ten minutes before arriving at Sha Tau Kok Sea. After circling twice, it slowly lowered its altitude. When it was only a few meters from the sea level, the cabin door was opened and several tightly wrapped boxes were pushed into the sea.
The plane took off and several fishing boats rushed out from the shore and quickly took away the box.
This was an expedited order for medicines from the mainland, and it was airlifted all the way from the United States. The shipping cost exceeded the value of the medicines.
The plane flew over the New Territories, out of Hong Kong waters, and headed east towards Taiwan.
There were several boxes in the cabin, and the destination was Taipei. The plane needed to fly to the extreme sea area that aroused the vigilance of the Taiwan Air Force.
Li Xiaqing was sulking in the office again. When she was invited to join, she was promised a lot of wonderful things. But after she joined, she found out that all the planes of ITS were used for smuggling. There was no flight sightseeing service or flying club, but the business had not been developed at all. She got on a pirate ship and couldn't get off once on - they paid too much.
Zhao Lian's office.
After Zhao Lian and Miss Wang completed the delivery of the goods, they took out a bank deposit slip and placed it on the table.
"Ms. Wang, the chairman told me to give this to you."
Miss Wang glanced at the deposit slip and said, "15, Manager Zhao, your chairman is really generous."
"The chairman said that our Jinji Company neglected Miss Wang and should make amends."
Miss Wang picked up the deposit slip and swung it, "I really like your way of apologizing."
"Pleasant to work with."
As soon as Zhao Lian finished speaking, there was a knock on the office door.
When Miss Wang heard this, she said, "Manager Zhao must be very busy. I won't bother you any more. Bye."
"Miss Wang, I'll take you there."
When seeing Miss Wang off, Zhao Lian saw the person knocking on the door. It was his assistant, and also his cousin Zhao Ming. Although he was his cousin in terms of seniority, he was actually one year older than him.
Zhao Lian came back from seeing the man off to the gate, and said to Zhao Ming with a sullen face, "You knew I had a guest, so why couldn't it wait a little longer?"
Zhao Ming didn't care about Zhao Lian's mood and said hurriedly: "Three boxes of fake goods have been moved. I found several boxes without the secret marks of the United States and Singapore."
"What?" Zhao Lian exclaimed, "Take me to see it quickly."
Medicines are Jinji Logistics' largest trading commodity, used to treat diseases, and are either taken orally, injected, or applied topically. If they are purchased incorrectly or tampered with by someone, the consequence is loss of life, ranging from a few lives to hundreds or thousands.
Therefore, Jinji Logistics has always adopted a strict transportation system, conducting sampling tests at the source, and then marking the boxes and sealing them; when handing over and transiting in Singapore, a second sampling test is carried out, and then marking the boxes and sealing them; when arriving in Hong Kong, the same operation is carried out for a third time before delivery to customers.
Now there is penicillin without secret marks, which is a big problem.
After reporting the situation to Cheryl, he hurried to the dock and took a small boat to the cargo ship.
Cheryl also hurriedly left the office and came to a tenement building that belonged to Jinji Trading Company but was not registered under her name. She went to the bedroom on the fourth floor, opened a safe, and took out a list from it.
Half an hour later, the list appeared in Cen Peipei's hands.
“The sun always comes after the storm, and there is a clear sky above the dark clouds. Cherish all the touches you have, and every hope is in your hands. The sun always comes after the storm, so please believe that there is color…”
Xian Yaowen was humming a song in his study when the phone suddenly rang. "Hello, this is Xian Yaowen."
"Master, it's me."
"Pepe, what's the matter?"
"Master, where is the deposit certificate of Shanghai Savings Bank?"
"Have you run out of household expenses?"
"It's time to pay the second installment of the house, and I don't have enough money."
"Oh, the deposit slip is with Yuzhen, you can ask her for it."
"Got it. Master, are you doing well in Taipei?"
"It's okay. Long distance is expensive, so I won't say much over the phone. I'll talk slowly when I get back."
"Okay, goodbye, sir."
"Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Xian Yaowen quickly connected the fax machine. What he said on the phone was all nonsense, just to convey the message that he had an urgent matter to fax.
A quarter of an hour later, he learned from the fax that penicillin had been tampered with.
After replying with the three words "Never kill by mistake", he began to wonder who was targeting him or using him.
The first name that popped up was the Military Control Commission. Whenever there was a problem with a batch of medicines, they would immediately be on high alert. If nerve agents were mixed into the medicines, the mainland's current testing level might not be able to figure out what they were, and samples would probably have to be sent to Big Brother for testing.
It is impossible to come up with a simple detection method, and it is questionable whether the mainland will dare to continue using smuggled drugs. But in all likelihood, the drugs from Jinji Trading Company will no longer be used. Even if we make an optimistic estimate, a large portion of the profits that have been obtained and are expected to be obtained will have to be lost.
"Damn it, the downside of monopoly has emerged."
The medicines provided by Jinji Trading Company are of high quality and affordable, and are very popular in mainland China. The volume of goods they need is already large, and coupled with the crackdown on their peers, they have already taken over 70% of the medicine supply, with more than 20% of their own channels in mainland China, leaving less than 10% for their competitors. It is normal for anyone who wants to do something with medicines to target Jinji Trading Company.
If pharmaceuticals are like other commodities and there is a war among the warlords, those who want to cause trouble can just join in themselves, without using Jinji Trading Company as a ladder.
Since the first one jumped out of the Military Control Commission, there seems to be no need to guess about the second one. Let's wait for the news first.
After leaving the telephone office, Cen Peipei immediately made an appointment to meet Qi Weiwen.
After listening to Cen Peipei's explanation, Qi Weiwen said quietly, "It seems like the style of the Military Control Commission. What do the foreign devils say?"
"It is better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go."
"To what extent?"
Cen Peipei said coldly: "Anyone who handles this will die."
"It is my duty and I have no choice."
"With no business left, will the family go out to beg for food?"
Qi Weiwen smoked a cigarette and remained silent for a long time. "I'll go investigate."
Cen Peipei returned home and took out the list Cheryl gave her. She first divided it into two parts, Singapore and Hong Kong, and then into two parts, namely the parties involved and their families. She sent a message from Singapore to Gu Baozhang, and placed an order to the Jigongwan team from Hong Kong, putting all the family members under surveillance and waiting for the results of the interrogation to come out before taking any action.
After arranging all these, she began to think about Xiang Yingxin. If it was really the work of the Military Control Commission, the source of the problem would still fall on Mao Renfeng. Mao Renfeng was too big and did not have the confidence to engage in battle for the time being, but he could still disgust people. She had to come up with several plans for the master to choose from.
Xian Yaowen is not as aggressive as Cen Peipei. Maybe Mao Renfeng knew that he was in Taipei, but still wanted to deal with him. This is simply because she did not take him seriously and regarded him as an ant. Or maybe she did not know that he was in Taipei, in which case he was not in Mao Renfeng's eyes at all and was still an ant.
No matter what, he was looked down upon, which was a good thing. It basically confirmed the attitude of the National Government to deliberately ignore his smuggling incident. They probably wanted to seize the immediate benefits first and decide whether to settle accounts with him based on the situation later.
"It's not like you can just do it if you want to. I won't fall into your trap. I'll wait and see how you guys do it."
After sitting in the study until three o'clock in the afternoon, Xian Yaowen felt a little overworked and decided to go out for some fresh air.
Don't drive, ride a bike.
Fuji brand, bought second-hand, with bullet marks on the tripod and the tires are obviously added later, so it is no surprise that they were captured from the battlefield in Southeast Asia.
At the beginning, the Japanese troops in Southeast Asia were equipped with a lot of 28-bar trucks. After the tires burst, they were directly removed, exposing the metal rims. The rims were chrome-plated and reflective, and the moving sound was like a tank, which caused a great psychological deterrent to the natives and the Allied forces. Therefore, they were called the Silver Wheel Troops.
The three bicycles have been lying around since I bought them and have never been revamped. This is a good opportunity to revamp them.
The three bicycles cost only two hundred and sixty yuan, but it cost nearly two hundred yuan to buy a complete set of repair tools. There was nothing he could do about it, since he just liked to dismantle and repair them.
Remove the front and rear tires, replace them with new bearing balls, apply butter and press them back; remove the fenders, clean them and press them back; apply engine oil to the chain; use the spoke wrench to carefully adjust each spoke.
Because it is a military product, comfort is not considered at all. The seat cushion is a whole piece of rubber, which is hard. After being exposed to wind and sun for a long time, cracks have appeared. I applied two layers of protective oil and wrapped it with two layers of rags to enhance comfort.
The three cars followed the same plan. When they saw that it was almost five o'clock, they received a call from Fei Baoshu saying that he would not be coming home for dinner, and so they went out as planned.
Qi Longque and Xie Huiran each rode one, Xian Yaowen carried Xie Tingyun, and the four of them slowly walked through the streets.
Walking through the streets and alleys, with the arcades flowing backwards, I met military, public servants and teachers walking home from get off work. These people are easy to recognize: the men wear Zhongshan suits or Western suits, and the women wear plain cheongsams. Some of them have a scholarly air, while others have a slightly tight financial situation.
There are also vendors selling noodle soup and roasted pork dumplings on their shoulders, as well as chefs who repair aluminum pots.
Once you enter Ximending, you can see people stealthily selling U.S. military surplus supplies, such as canned food and chocolate, on the roadside. They trade in U.S. dollars or silver dollars, as the Taiwan dollar is not very popular.
In Taipei, the most popular currency is naturally the U.S. dollar. Most people do not recognize other foreign currencies because they have never seen them and cannot tell the authenticity. The second most popular currency is the silver dollar, which is not only circulated privately among the people, but even part of the salary of some units is paid in silver dollars.
There is no way around it. People are still afraid of the exchange rate of 7 for one Taiwan dollar and lack trust in the (New) Taiwan dollar. On the contrary, the silver dollar has a trust base of several decades and its value is very strong. One silver dollar can be exchanged for 15 to Taiwan dollars on the black market.
The reason why the price difference is so big is that some people are speculating on silver dollars, the market is manipulated, and they buy low and sell high, having a lot of fun.
A child took out two long dollars and bought two American cans from a vendor. The vendor was nice and gave him an extra piece of candy as a sweet treat.
The quality of Longyang is much more stable than that of Yuan Datou and Sun Xiaotou.
Before I knew it, I passed by the New Park and saw a group of students holding a rally. The leader was giving an anti-communist speech. There were adults in Zhongshan suits hiding in the corner. It was obvious that the rally was unlikely to be spontaneous and was most likely led by someone.
This is normal. There are not so many people in the world who share the same ideals and views as each other.
After listening for a while, I walked through the park and pedaled towards Guling Street.
At six o'clock, the wind started to blow, a light breeze that made people feel lazy. I walked into Guling Street against the wind, and three girls in school uniforms came towards me, their faces filled with youthfulness.
One of them looked familiar, a bit like that famous romance novelist. I heard that her works were only about love, and she treated love as her livelihood, without any regard for the daily necessities of life.
After looking a few more times, he still couldn't be sure, so he gave up. The two cars passed each other and it turned into an encounter without any ripples.
He encountered this chance encounter and the breath of youth, but under the same sky, someone was suffering. (End of this chapter)
