I want to be a good person

The next morning, Zhang Aiguo rented a Ford Model A car from a rental agency and put four wicker boxes in it. He had not exchanged the silver dollars yesterday, so he started going to the rental shops to exchange them one by one today. He couldn't just leave, otherwise he would be suspected again.

The rental car was also expensive. On the rental receipt, except for the name of the forwarding company which was in Chinese, the main contents were all printed and filled out in English. I couldn't read it clearly. The charge was by the hour, 1 yuan per hour.

After returning to the hotel, the driver helped put the four wicker boxes into the car. Zhang Aiguo first paid a small bill of two dollars because he did not have a driver's license and could not drive on the road. There was no separation between people and cars. If something happened, the responsibility would be great.

We arrived at HSBC first, and the driver helped carry it into the lobby.

"I made an appointment yesterday and came to exchange gold bars today."

A beautiful girl greeted him, smiling like a flower.

Zhang Aiguo wanted to ask how much it would cost for a trip.

"How much is this? Do you want to exchange it for yellow croaker or gold?"

"4000 yuan for 100 small yellow croakers"

Someone put the rattan box on the counter and started counting the money using the money plate, with 50 silver dollars in one slot and 8 slots on a plate. After counting, the other party started looking for the manager to deposit the silver dollars into the warehouse and take out the gold bars.

The division of labor among employees is clear, the division of responsibilities is very clear, and inventory and handover are done by two people.

There is nothing abnormal in the vault, so it may not be the time for inventory. Only personnel above the manager level are authorized to collect the keys. Just record the entry and exit in the vault account book.

After leaving HSBC, I went along the road to Citibank and repeated the same operation.

"I would like to purchase some gold from your bank"

Facing the foreign manager of Citibank, Zhang Aiguo still put forward his own demands.

"However, we need your help in escorting the money and preparing the boxes for the money. We also need your help in escorting the gold bars back."

"You need to pay for both trips, and the specific fee depends on the distance."

“No problem, it’s in Shanghai.”

"The oceans haven't arrived yet. When they do, I hope you can prepare the gold in advance."

Zhang Aiguo knew that ever since the Americans announced the Silver Act in June, the Japanese had been very fond of smuggling silver to the United States. Although the national government levied taxes, they could not resist their low political status and did not dare to openly offend the foreigners.

“How much ocean do you have?”

"60"

“Oh, sure.”

"I know that the profit from shipping back to the United States is 40%, so I hope you can waive the escort fee, which is very small compared to the profit."

“Yes, I can make the decision on this and cancel it.”

"I hope to gain your friendship by selling me two Chicago typewriters, plus 2000 rounds of ammunition, two 30-round magazines, and two 50-round drums."

"Hiss, this is a bit difficult. You have to know that we are not a foreign company or an arms dealer. We are just a bank."

"Yes, I understand, but I need weapons to protect my property. Your weapons are the best, aren't they? I always think so."

"Oh, thank you. Of course, I need to ask for instructions. I am not allowed to answer you right now due to my clearance. Sorry."

"Should I wait here for you, or?"

"Wait a moment, I'll be quick, it's just an authorization."

The devils' greed is undisguised. They cut off the source of our national industry, destroyed the financial market, hit agriculture and worsened the economy. The golden decade was a false decade, and they returned to the period before the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, a bit like the financial crisis in 08.

Foreign support during World War II was paid. There is no love without reason, unless you are valuable. This is true for the United States and the Soviet Union. All are the same. For them, it is just a matter of transferring money from one hand to the other, taking your money in exchange for your gratitude.

After a while, the foreigner walked over quickly with a bright smile on his face.

"No problem. We can get two Chicago typewriters, Thompson M1928 models, from the garrison. Each is priced at $209 at a 1:4 exchange rate. As you know, the price of silver has increased. For $2000, we will give you more rounds of ammunition."

"Okay, deal. May our transaction go smoothly."

“God will bless us.”

After paying 14 yuan for car rental, Zhang Aiguo naturally received his 200 little goldfish into the space.

The driver took the two-dollar bill with a complicated look in his eyes.

60 oceans was not something he could swallow. He was anxious, but he didn't dare to make a fuss. After doing such a big thing, he would be silenced. Those who could survive knew their own weight very well, and they should eat as much as the bowl was big enough.

After leaving the hotel, Zhang Aiguo strolled around the concession, looking for a safe place to rent out for a short period of time. He lent out 60 yuan, and only had or yuan left, which was enough to use until the end of the War of Resistance. He could still borrow money if there was a chance. For example, the Japanese officers still had some money. The Japanese civilians were not as lucky as the officers, but the Japanese soldiers were too damn poor.

The military pay of a few yen was all earned by plundering the Chinese land, and everything was robbed. Japan was a well-known "pauper imperialist" country, and it only bullied non-industrialized countries.

In 1921, a chicken in Tokyo, Japan was worth 3.6 yen. The Japanese only earned 1 yen a month in basic military pay. During World War II, the monthly pay for indoctrination soldiers was only 3 yen, the second-class soldier was 6 yen, the first-class soldier was 9 yen, and the private first class was 10.5 yen.

The most common thing that the lowest-level Japanese soldiers did when they entered a village was to catch chickens and ducks. So for the Japanese soldiers who had rifles or chickens and ducks hanging around their necks, the military notes were just a piece of waste paper.

Having a typewriter is not a panacea. Sneak attack, sneak attack, and more sneak attack. Zhang Aiguo feels that important things should be said three times, constantly reminding himself to stay safe and not waste time.

The foreign company's warehouse was also rented out. Zhang Aiguo searched for a long time before finding a suitable location. The key was to be able to drive in trucks.

After paying and signing the agreement, Zhang Aiguo got the key. But how could he put the money in the empty little warehouse with piles of money on the ground? Wasn't it too disrespectful to the money?

"Feel sorry"

Zhang Aiguo still lit three incense sticks and waited for the truck to arrive before releasing the money in advance, showing the greatest respect.

"rickshaw"

Went out and got in the car.

“Where to, sir?”

"Hongkou"

"Sir, it's quite far. Let me tell you first, the price is a bit expensive."

"Let's go"

There was never any Japanese concession from the Qing Dynasty to the end of the Anti-Japanese War. It was just that the Japanese gathered in the Hongkou area and the Chinese people mistakenly thought so. There was no such statement in the treaty regarding Shanghai, otherwise the Japanese would not have caused trouble in June this year and put pressure on the Bureau of Industry and Information Technology.

After scouting the area, Zhang Aiguo took a walk around first. He felt that his rifle was thirsty for fire, and the Type 89 grenade launcher was also eager to fire a shot.

The Mauser 1924 standard rifle, equipped with the Dialytan 6x optical sight, is really an added bonus. In fact, it is the predecessor of the Zhongzheng rifle and also a model of the Czech-made "Mauser 98-Ring". It has some major differences in appearance from the k equipped by the German army. It uses a straight bolt handle and is equipped with finger grooves. The main data is basically the same.

All 2000 rounds of bullets are SS-type heavy pointed bullets, weighing 26.7g, with pointed, boat-tail, lead core bullets and an initial velocity of 792m/s.

The reason why I don't buy and use S-type light pointed bullets is that the short 600mm barrel will cause muzzle explosion, loud noise and obvious flames, and has the disadvantage of large recoil.

The Japanese police station has been established, and the Japanese are divided into two factions, one is the middle and lower class, and the other is the upper class and military and politicians. The latter are concentrated in the Yokohama Bridge area of ​​North Sichuan Road.

The lower class people were also drafted into battle in the previous Battle of Shanghai, and they were all guilty.

There were many more Japanese soldiers than in Tianjin, and the signs were all in Japanese style, as if we had arrived at the Japanese's home.

After getting off the bus, I paid two dollars and called another rickshaw to take a walk around this land where Chinese people cannot be the masters of their own destiny. The curtains were drawn and there were signs saying Chinese are not allowed to enter.

Nonsence!
