This time, the war zone did not break its promise, and they soon delivered the military pay to Qinghe.

From August to now, according to the normal organization of the third brigade, the military pay that the war zone should pay is a large amount. It is not an easy thing to pass through some enemy-occupied areas and then safely deliver so much money.

But there are solutions to everything. Pan Kewei gave the back an idea, which was to exchange the money for opium and then send it to Wan'an through smuggling channels. Pan Kewei then exchanged the opium for money through Asia Trading Bank.

It is not easy to reach Wan'an with such a large amount of opium. However, under Pan Kewei's careful planning, the opium was transported by a caravan, and the rear was escorted to the buffer zone by the Kuomintang army. When he arrived here, Nokawa came to the puppet army for the escort. The goods arrived safely in Wan'an. After being sold by the Asia Trading Company, the goods not only exchanged for money, but also made a lot of money.

When Li Qinglin had money, the treatment of the troops rose sharply, the rewards of the officers and soldiers were redeemed, and some money was allocated to the militia. With the money, the troops consumed a lot, and the agricultural and sideline products in the hands of the people in the garrison were easy to take advantage of, and the farmers also made money, and finally they were in a happy situation.

The telegram from the war zone was naturally to be conveyed to the troops below. I heard that the logistics supply of their troops had been settled, and the morale of the officers and soldiers increased greatly. As for the reorganization, it was something that the officers were worried about, and those who were in the army did not care about those.

The Japanese and puppet troops will not attack in the near future. The troops' spare time life is colorful, and the food and food are relatively good. Although the weather is very cold this winter, from the perspective of these soldiers who do not have to worry about food and drink and have a fulfilling life, this winter is actually very warm, and it is completely a warm winter.

The Spring Festival was spent in a lively manner, and Li Qinglin also took the opportunity to go back to Xiaolizhuang.

This year, although Wang Changshan led the Japanese and puppets to harm the wheat harvest and autumn harvest several times, Wang Changshan was later hoeed by Zhang Ergou, and the remaining traitors were as quiet as a cicada, and the countryside became much more peaceful.

Wang Changshan was hoeed, and the Qian family thought that no one had reported the news again, so they quietly moved back from Wei Erya's parents' home. This year was a quiet life.

Wei Sanya's belly is already showing signs of pregnancy. Under this current situation, she is even more unwilling to go to Li Qinglin's place. Li Qinglin had to follow her decision and let her stay in Xiao Lizhuang.

However, Li Qinglin also got a news in Xiaolizhuang, that is, Jiang Xiuzhi, Zhou Yougen and Qian Duogui both had their whereabouts. It turned out that they had all gone to the Eighth Route Army and heard that they might have to come back after the beginning of the New Year.

Li Qinglin didn't find such news at all. The Communist Party was able to incite a riot for migrant workers to build artillery towers, which means that they already have a large foundation in the countryside and have a very strict organization. It is normal for Jiang Xiuzhi, Zhou Yougen and others to be picked up by them.

Although it was during the Chinese New Year, Li Qinglin stayed at home for only one night before returning to the army, because Nokawa sent a letter that he wanted to send a manager to the Asia Trading Bank in the first month of the year and wanted to meet "Shunji Kobayashi".

Li Qinglin returned to the army, shaved the short beard that he had been away for several months, and took a detour to Wan'an County.

When he arrived at Wan'an County, Li Qinglin was naturally taken to the Asia Business Bank by Yan Boling at the first time. Here, Li Qinglin changed into the clothes prepared by Yan Boling, and a Japanese businessman named "Junji Kobayashi" appeared again, "Junji Kobayashi" who looked very standard.

Because of inconvenient road traffic, Nokawa came to Wan'an the next day and brought a short Japanese man behind him. This is the manager sent by Nokawa and his personal representative Keiji Yokori.

Yokoriki Keiji is an Osaka native and comes from a commercial family. Osaka people are a very special group among the Japanese. Their militaristic ideas are not very serious. Most Osaka people are keen on business, and they do not regard becoming warriors of the imperial army and serving allegiance to the emperor as their only life goal, just like many Japanese people currently.

Because he didn't want to join the army, Henglu Jinger's family gave him a disability certificate through some way. In the end, he did not join the army, but continued to stay at home for business. Later, the Japanese military source was tense, and the people from the Military Service began to focus on him again. In order to avoid the limelight, his family quietly let him take a ship to China and go to his uncle's shop in Tianjin to work as a partner.

Keiji Yokoro was not interested in being a soldier, but he was very enthusiastic about doing business. By chance, Keiji Yokororo was attracted by Nokawa, so he invited him to Wan'an to be an agent for himself. After arriving in China, Keiji Yokoro finally realized how great privileges he had as a Japanese in China. So he happily agreed to Nokawa's invitation and followed Uenokawa to Wan'an County.

Because Nokawa comes as a shareholder of Asia Trading Company, in addition to himself and Yan Boling, Li Qinglin received another person, that is, one of the shareholders of Asia Trading Company and the owner of Wantong Business.

After the shareholders met, Nokawa introduced Henglu to everyone, and then learned about some business situations. At present, Asia Trading Company mainly does business with the Imperial Army, and the other is the Great Ophiopoly business. Both of these businesses make a lot of profits, Nokawa is naturally very satisfied.

Nokawa praised the boss of Wantong Business and Yan Boling for a few words and asked them to go out. Only "Kobayashi Shunji" was left in the house, and Keiji Yokoro and himself were himself. He believed that the three Japanese should have a deep conversation to leave a good foundation for future business cooperation.

Because Henglu Jinger will be the manager of Asia Trading Company in the future, Li Qinglin first introduced to him the current business situation of Asia Trading Company. Of course, these were introduced in detail to Li Qinglin in advance. Li Qinglin is also selling it out now.

After introducing the basic situation, Li Qinglin began to complain that in order to keep the Tuyan business, he asked someone to contact relevant personnel from the National Army because they needed to ensure the smooth flow of the cargo transportation road, and he spent a lot of money here, otherwise the business would get more benefits.

Unexpectedly, Henglu Jinger said, "Kun Kobayashi, this is a very normal situation. If you get benefits, you will naturally give benefits to others. Just as the Chinese people said, "It is convenient for others and for yourself," otherwise your business will not be able to continue."

Li Qinglin said deliberately: "Nokawa also knows that I have a document issued by your agency. I am afraid that someone will say that I have an affair with the enemy in the future."

Nokawa smiled and said, "This is fine. I will explain to you that you need it for work and do this to facilitate the enemy to spy on information."

Yokoro Keiji even sniffed, saying: "When our Osaka Division was stationed in Manchuria, they not only did business with all parties, but also sold some officers and soldiers privately with training ammunition to others. The most courageous officer once reported to his superiors that he lost a 92 infantry cannon. Later, the Imperial Army cleared out the China Anti-Japanese United Army and found that this infantry cannon was not lost, but sold. Because there were too many people involved, it was left unresolved afterwards?"

Henglu Jingji was blowing and frothing. Li Qinglin found that Nokawa was not talking or looking at Henglu Jingji. He seemed to have not heard Henglu Jingji say anything. Li Qinglin knew that although Nokawa did not clearly support, he had acquiesced in his heart.

In fact, Nokawa found Keiji Yokoro, because he was attracted by this guy's boldness. He and Shunji Kobayashi said that they were both staff members of the secret service, and some things could not be handled. Now, with Keiji Yokororo, the guy, who is in front of him, Nokawa will only make money in the future. If the matter of smuggling the opium in the future is caused, all his responsibilities can be attributed to the unlucky man, Keiji Yokoro.

After Li Qinglin knew Nokawa's mentality, he lowered his head and bowed and said, "I have a lot of business, and I have been taking care of this place. I will ask Henglujun in the future."

Next, Nokawa talked about the current situation, because Yokoro Keiji once told him that any business must be linked to the current situation, so that business can save effort and make money quickly.

Nokawa naturally said that the Army Department's recent strategic and tactical changes in China were changed, and he also emphasized that the future war situation will be a protracted war.

Nokawa also specifically mentioned the "Strategies for Handling China after Autumn 1938" formulated by the Army Department, which includes the content of "In order to quickly restore public security, sufficient troops should be fixed and sufficient troops should be allocated and done to make them a long-term self-sufficiency situation. In addition to the key areas, the main transportation lines (Tianpu Line, Tongpu Line, and Pinghan Line northern section) should be ensured for contact."

Regarding this description, Nokawa invited "Shunji Kobayashi" and Keiji Yokoro to interpret it. Keiji Yokoro from an economic perspective, military operations will be at a secondary position in the occupied areas in the future, and ensuring public security will become a key task. Since public security needs to be restored in the occupied areas, it is necessary to vigorously develop industry and commerce, otherwise it will not be able to "make it a long-term self-sufficiency trend", so the business of Asia's trading companies will be more prosperous in the future.

"Kobayashi Shunji" is a former retired soldier, and of course he interprets it from a military perspective. "Kobayashi Shunji" believes that the meaning behind the sentence "to allocate sufficient troops in the security areas" is that the forces in secondary areas will be greatly reduced, so the strength of the Imperial Army will be greatly enhanced in the future; in addition, "in addition to the important areas, it should be ensured that its main transportation lines (Tianpu Line, Tongpu Line, and Pinghan Line northern section) should be ensured for contact" and other contents also mean that the number of guards guarding railway traffic lines will increase in the future, and the combat in the enemy-occupied areas will be considered whether the local area has damaged the public security of the occupied areas.

The two of them seemed to make sense in their analysis. Nokawa nodded frequently. He finally made a decision: "The trading company's local tobacco business needs to continue, but it must be more hidden. Because the empire's strategy has changed a little, the trading company will still increase the trading of daily necessities for the people in the future."

Because Nokawa came to Wan'an in his private capacity, he did not go to see Sasaki and others. After lunch at the Asia Trading Company, Nokawa hurried back and left his agent Henglu to manage the Asia Trading Company's business...
