Xie Xuan received a notice from Li Junshi in the morning, asking him to send Wu Xiankai to the Suzhou Station of the Secret Service in Xiangfu Temple Lane, and the Japanese military police monitoring Wu Xiankai were also removed.

Li Junshi said: "Xie Xuan, I have to tell you something in advance. Colonel Dujia's impression of you is not that good. After all, you were very close to the Mei Agency before, especially when you joined Noga Naomi. He has misunderstood you. Of course, I will find an opportunity to explain it to you, so you don’t have to worry, just continue to do your own thing."

Xie Xuan is actually very loyal to Japan. This is why Dujia transferred the conflict between the Song Agency and the Mei Agency to Xie Xuan.

He has nothing to do with Mei Guan, so he can always take it out on Xie Xuan, right?

In addition, Wu Xiankai probably said something unfavorable to Xie Xuan in front of Colonel Dujia, which caused Dujia to have a particularly bad impression of Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan said disapprovingly: "It's okay. I walk and sit upright. If the Japanese think I'm in the way, I'll just rest more."

The internal conflicts among the Japanese actually dragged him into the water.

The original plan seems to have to be changed.

After Wu Xiankai returned to Suzhou Station in Xiangfusi Lane, he was very happy because he felt that he had escaped from Xie Xuan's clutches.

After returning to Suzhou Station, Wu Xiankai invited people from the Secret Service Department to go to Wang Yunman's house to get some money, and ordered two banquets to entertain the Suzhou Station personnel.

Shi Senlin also knew about Wu Xiankai's affairs and personally accompanied him. Wu Xiankai was in a happy mood and got drunk again.

Xie Xuan heard about it and secretly shook his head.

If the top leaders of the Kuomintang were all like this, the Kuomintang would not be able to achieve great things.

It is said that when Wu Xiankai was in high spirits, he also received many posts. He even accepted his disciples at Suzhou Station.

Those spies worshiped him as "sir" not only because Wu Xiankai was a big boss they rarely came into contact with, but also because they knew that the Japanese valued Wu Xiankai.

At this time, as long as you submit a post, you will have a backer in the future. Who wouldn’t want to do such a cheap thing?

If Shi Linlin hadn't been so reserved, he might have asked Wu Xiankai to be his teacher.

But after doing this, Wu Xiankai's life became much more comfortable.

Whatever he wants to do, there will naturally be people at Suzhou station who will help him. Even if it costs money, there will be agents willing to pay their respects.

Wu Xiankai even took the opportunity to proactively contact Shancheng.

Wu Xiankai knew that there was a contact point for the Jiangsu Provincial Party Headquarters in Zhangzhu Town, Wuxi. In order to be able to contact Shancheng, he asked the agent who was his husband to go to Zhangzhu and forward the information to Shancheng.

After the Shancheng Military Command Bureau learned of this situation, it immediately informed Xie Xuan.

This shocked Xie Xuan. Wu Xiankai was not taking other people's lives seriously.

If the Secret Service attacks Zhang Zhu's liaison station, wouldn't those people be wronged?

Fortunately, Wu Xiankai didn't know Xie Xuan's identity, otherwise, Xie Xuan could be exposed at any time.

Now that Wu Xiankai has contacted Shancheng, Xie Xuan requested to end the mission, and the rescue of Wu Xiankai has nothing to do with Shenpu Station.

As long as Wu Xiankai does not seek death, it will be a matter of time before he leaves Suzhou and returns to the mountain city.

After Dai Li considered it carefully, he agreed to Xie Xuan's request.

But Dai Li told Xie Xuan to keep an eye on Wu Xiankai secretly. If something happens to Wu Xiankai, he still has to secretly help him.

Xie Xuan estimated that the Japanese would not let Wu Xiankai go back so quickly. After all, Wu Xiankai had not taken any substantive actions.

The Japanese are not stupid either. If Wu Xiankai could not contact the person in Shancheng, why would they let Wu Xiankai go back?

After being relieved of his tasks, Xie Xuan suddenly felt relieved. In the evening, he went to Shijia Restaurant specifically to treat himself.

When checking out, Xie Xuan found that today's price was several times more expensive than usual.

Xie Xuan was very puzzled: "It usually cost two yuan, but why does it cost six and a half yuan today?"

The shopkeeper who collected the money quickly explained: "I'm sorry, sir, prices are soaring now. Noodles, rice, and oil have all increased several times. No matter how much our vegetable prices increase, we will still lose money."

During this period of time, Xie Xuan was always following Wu Xian. Unexpectedly, the special prices on the market were already so high.

Later, he went to the Silver House and asked about the current gold price.

Unexpectedly, in just over a month, the price of gold has increased almost tenfold.

Two months ago, one tael of gold only cost one hundred and four French currency.

But now, one tael of gold can be exchanged for one thousand and two times legal currency, which means that gold has appreciated more than eight times.

In other words, the legal currency has depreciated more than eight times.

It is the common people who are suffering. Daily necessities such as rice, flour, oil, salt, etc. have experienced sharp prices.

There are many people who can no longer afford salt.

Xie Xuan had hoarded a lot of gold before. Even if he didn't do anything, the value of the gold had increased more than eight times.

But gold cannot be circulated. If you want to make money, you have to exchange it.

Xie Xuan called Ma Tian over the next day and asked him to exchange gold for legal tender and China Reserve Certificates.

Ma Tian reminded: "Boss, I heard that legal currency is about to be banned. Now if we exchange gold for legal currency, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

Xie Xuan explained: "It is true that legal currency will be banned from circulation, but legal currency can still be used in other areas, right? Besides, legal currency can be exchanged for China Reserve Certificates by then."

If prices rise too fast, it will definitely lead to government intervention.

Even the Japanese hope for economic stability.

How can they carry out economic plunder if the economy collapses? How else to feed the army?

Japan's domestic life is not easy either. Now it relies entirely on China's plunder and supplies from Southeast Asia.

Otherwise, little Japan will no longer be able to survive.

Ma Tian said: "Okay, I got it on the black market, and the price is higher than silver. For one tael of gold, someone can get two thousand French currency."

Antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times, and the emergence of new currencies have caused panic in many people. They feel that legal currency will soon become waste paper. At this time, nothing can preserve its value better than gold.

Even if the price of gold has increased several times, they are still willing to exchange legal currency for gold.

In the next few days, Ma Tian took the people from the Secret Service and transformed into a gold dealer. He went out with gold every day and came back with sacks of legal currency.

Li Junshi also heard the news and specifically called Xie Xuan over and asked: "Everyone is rushing to collect gold, why are you still exchanging gold elsewhere?"

Xie Xuan asked: "Now that the price of gold is high, it is the most appropriate time to take action. Governor, I would like to exchange all the gold bars in the small vault into legal currency. What do you think?"

Li Junshi muttered: "Change it to one-third."

Xie Xuan didn't say much, but he exchanged all his previous gold for legal currency.

Even if these legal currencies really become waste paper, he can still send people to other areas to spend them.

Even if you can't spend it, you can give it to the party organization or purchase supplies in other places.

While Xie Xuan was reselling gold, he suddenly received a secret message from Yamashiro: Yamashiro had discovered Ueno Naomi's trace.
