Shancheng ordered Xie Xuan to find a way to rescue Liu Qing, a former military commander.
This Liu Qing was an operational staff member of the former Military Command Shenpu Station.
On New Year's Eve last year, Liu Qing did a big thing and assassinated Chen Lu, the foreign minister of the former reform government.
At that time, Chen Lu was worshiping his ancestors in his apartment in the French Concession. Liu Qing rushed in and opened fire. Chen Lu fell on the carpet and was shot to death by a hail of bullets.
The next day, a newspaper imitated a chapter title from a martial arts novel and wrote: "The traitor Chen Lu climbed into the ghost log at night, and the swift general descended from the sky."
At that time, Liu Qing not only escaped unharmed, but also let Chen Lu's bodyguard go. He just tied him aside and gagged him with a cloth.
Xie Xuan still admired this. This requires not only courage, but also wisdom.
Liu Qing became famous overnight. It can be said that Liu Qing is one of the most successful assassins in the history of military rule.
However, Lin Tianwang, the then station chief of the Juntong Shenpu Station, was arrested. Li Junshi detained him for three weeks and then deliberately let him go, which caused a misunderstanding between the Juntong and Lin Tianwang.
Xie Xuan suspected at that time that this was Li Junshi's plan to alienate Li Junshi, and sent a telegram to Dai Li.
However, Dai Li issued an assassination order for Lin Tianwang.
It was enough to issue an assassination order, and let the people from the original Shenpu Station take action.
Those people are all Lin Tianwang's men, how can they succeed? During the operation, someone deliberately leaked the news and informed Lin Tianwang of the transfer.
This made Lin Tianwang very angry. As one of the four great kings of the military, he had no place to stay.
In anger, he really took refuge in Li Junshi, causing the Military Command Shenpu Station to be beaten to pieces by the Secret Service.
At that time, there were more than a thousand agents at the Shenpu Station, and almost 90% of them either evacuated or were arrested. A considerable number of them defected to the Japanese and puppets and became agents of the Secret Service Department.
Liu Qing assassinated Chen Lu on Lin Tianwang's order.
After learning that Lin Tianwang had rebelled, Liu Qing, who had returned to the mountain city, asked Dai Li for orders to return to Shenpu to persuade Lin Tianwang to turn back.
As a result, he fell into a treacherous plot by mistake and ended up in jail.
Liu Qing was born in Xiamen, Fujian Province, and his ancestral home is Yunlin County, Taiwan Province. He graduated from Jinan University with a bachelor's degree in his early years. In the summer of 1935, Liu Qing was recruited by Dai Li to join the Kuomintang Military Command Bureau, and Liu Qing was assigned to work in Shenpu.
Liu Qing's background is rather special, because before the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, there were almost no college graduates in the Military Command Bureau. Most military officials have received traditional education. From the upper to the middle levels, military officials have studied classics and history since childhood.
Traditional popular culture praises assassins from the Warring States Period and heroes from the Three Kingdoms Period. They grew up in this cultural atmosphere.
Liu Qing's background is different from that of most of his colleagues in the military command. He is neither from the Huangpu clique nor has any hometown connections. From all aspects, he is not part of the core circle of the military commander.
Liu Qing's loyalty to the military commander was not the product of faction, but was based on his true devotion to the chivalry advocated by Dai Li.
He joined the army purely to kill the Japanese.
Liu Qing was previously in a detention center. Li Junshi wanted to subdue him, but Liu Qing remained unmoved.
Recently, he was transferred to the Nanjing Secret Service Prison.
It was during this trip to the Nanjing Secret Service Prison that Liu Qing had the opportunity to deliver the news.
Liu Qing only made one request. He wanted to escape from the clutches of the devil, but not by pretending to surrender.
Dai Li appreciated this even more, and then thought of his ace student Xie Xuan.
Xie Xuan was very embarrassed after receiving the order. He also admired Liu Qing's chivalrous spirit. However, this was a war, a national war between two countries, and a war in which the fate of the country was at stake. How could he pay attention to the methods of escape?
As long as he can return to the mountain city and rejoin the war of resistance.
If Liu Qing is still in the Secret Service, as long as he is willing to cooperate, there is still a good chance.
Now that Liu Qing has gone to Nanjing, he is beyond his reach.
However, Dai Li's tone was urgent. He hoped that Liu Qing could return to the mountain city as soon as possible, and asked Xie Xuan to be more attentive.
Boss Dai talked about this, and Xie Xuan really couldn't refuse.
Shi Dazhu was really talented. When Xie Xuan met with him at noon, he got his currency issuance plan.
Simply put, if a certain place issues its own currency in the future, for every 100 yuan of currency issued, the industrial and commercial bureau of the government department or other departments will use 50 yuan to purchase agricultural products such as rice, cotton, cotton cloth, peanuts, salt, and peanut oil. and daily necessities, as material reserves for currency issuance, and the remaining 50 yuan enters the market for circulation.
The local government promised that in the future, no matter who holds the currency they issue and cannot buy these materials in the store, they can go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to exchange for a certain amount of rice, cotton, cotton cloth, peanuts, salt, etc. at the flat price specified by the government. Peanut oil, etc., because currency is linked to these supplies...
Although this small local currency does not have gold reserves or foreign exchange reserves as reserves, its currency value will be very stable, and market prices will also be stable...
Because the Industrial and Commercial Bureau has a large amount of materials in its hands, if it finds that social prices are rising, it means that there are fewer commodities circulating in the market and more currency is circulating, which means there is a risk of inflation. The Industrial and Commercial Bureau will sell stored rice, cotton, etc. to the market. Cotton cloth, peanuts, salt, peanut oil, etc., withdraw money and stabilize prices.
And if prices are found to be falling, it means that there are more goods circulating in the market and less currency circulating, which will hurt farmers. The local government will issue more currency, start the money printing machine to print money, and purchase rice, cotton, cotton cloth, Peanuts, salt, peanut oil and other supplies are available to enrich the inventory...
Through large material reserves and innovative monetary policies that control the quantity of currency in circulation, the local government's new currency can achieve the same currency value and price stability as the U.S. dollar that implements the gold standard...
Looking at this plan, Xie Xuan was very excited. If the base area solves the new currency problem, the financial problems will be solved in the future.
By then, not only will the lives of the people in the base area become better and better, but the troops' supplies will also become more abundant, and their combat effectiveness will naturally become higher and higher.
"Your plan is just to improve my idea. It's not too surprising. Is this even worth fifty yuan?"
Although Xie Xuan was excited in his heart, his face remained calm.
Shi Dianzhu said angrily: "Yours is an idea, and mine is an implementable plan. How can this be the same? Every word on it is my hard work."
"Okay, then I won't deduct your money."
"Starting tomorrow, I am going to find a career and pay off the money I owe you as soon as possible."
"If you are ambitious, I hope you can get what you want."
No matter where Shi Dazhu goes to find a job, as long as Xie Xuan doesn't nod, who dares to use him?
However, what Xie Xuan didn't expect was that something unexpected happened...
