Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

"You will be competing against Yamamoto Yoshi in the future. Mitsui Zaibatsu is an important partner you need to win over."

"If you can own a certain amount of Mitsui & Co. shares at this time, it will be crucial for your future path."

"Besides, giving your shares to the Navy Department will not affect their plan to continue their southward march."

"The reason why the Army Department refused to give them oil was simply because they were afraid that they would open up new battlefields and affect the Army Department's influence in the mainland."

"But at this time, we can no longer think so much."

"The losses on the Chinese battlefield continue to increase, but no significant results have been achieved."

"After Cabinet Mine came to power, he even repeatedly asked the Army Department to stop occupying China and shift its focus to the Southeast Asian battlefield."

"But the Army Department will never allow this to happen."

Chen Yang nodded and said, "The Army Department has invested too much to occupy China."

"I'm just a little confused. Since last year, the top brass of the Army Department have been planning to have Mr. Terauchi take over General Nishio's position."

"It's been almost a year since we started talking about this, why is there no news?"

Li Xianshu sighed and said, "That's because the Army Department listened to Abe Nobuyuki's advice and promoted him to the position of Prime Minister."

"Who knows, this guy is just talking on paper, and each decree he promulgated is more outrageous than the last."

"He messed up the Army's plans on the mainland. If there are problems on the Chinese battlefield at this time, it will be a complete loss."

“The Army Department can only postpone personnel changes and strive for stability.”

"However, it is only a matter of time before Lord Terauchi takes over General Nishio's position."

"Let's not talk about these things for now. If you don't object, I will send a telegram to Mr. Fujiwara right away."

"He's been waiting for your answer, but he's afraid that you're having trouble with his identity."

Wow, this father-in-law is quite reasonable. Chen Yang waved his hand and said, "Aunt, I'll listen to you on this matter."

"I felt like I got a great deal by exchanging 100,000 shares of Mitsui & Co. for 10 percent of the refinery."

"If the other party has no objection, I have no objection."

Hearing Chen Yang's answer, Li Xianshu seemed a little surprised.

Shares in Mitsui & Co. and shares in an oil refinery are two different concepts.

Mitsui & Co.'s sales performance in recent years has not been ideal, the local economy has been in decline, and supplies are in short supply.

Almost all supplies were given priority to the troops, and the retail business under the name of Mitsui & Co. was hit hard.

Otherwise, the Black Dragon Society would not have been able to exchange a few broken ports for more than a hundred retail outlets.

The oil refinery owned by Chen Yang is one of the important enterprises.

If Chen Yang were to exchange his shares now, it would be a disadvantage for him.

Seeing Chen Yang's indifferent expression, Li Xianshu seemed relieved and said, "That's the best."

"Aunt, if nothing else, I'll go back first." Chen Yang was about to get up and leave when Li Xianshu stopped him.

"It's not over yet," Li Xianshu said, "I know you don't like intelligence work, but you still have to participate in this operation."

Chen Yang's face fell and he said, "Aunt, you're not going to ask me to contact someone again, are you?"

Li Xianshu shook her head and said, "The Army Department's operations against Yichang have been completed."

"The next stage of our goal is still to focus on Changsha."

"The last time Commander Gangcun returned empty-handed, the main reason was the delay of the fighter plane. This time, the Army Department has learned from the previous lesson and plans to find out the situation in Changsha before taking action."

"Colonel Takeda of the Special Forces Division has selected a group of people to prepare for infiltration."

"Now they hope that No. 76 can send two teams to assist in the infiltration mission."

Chen Yang frowned and said, "Aunt, this seems a little unkind."

"To put it nicely, it means sending two teams to assist. To put it bluntly, it means letting me personally select two groups of people to die."

"Their purpose of going to Changsha was to attract the attention of the Nationalist Army and help the special forces team of the Expeditionary Forces to go undercover."

"Chen Yang, those who want to accomplish great things cannot be soft-hearted." Li Xianshu said seriously: "For the future of the empire, some necessary sacrifices are nothing."

"Okay." Chen Yang stood up and said, "I'll discuss this with Director Li and Director Ding from Room 76."

"Draw up a list of team members to participate in the operation as soon as possible."

Li Xianshu nodded and said calmly: "But don't tell them that this is an assisting job."

"You can offer them generous conditions, such as some positions and large bonuses, and the dispatched troops will have no objection to this."

Oh, it’s just empty promises. I’m good at this.

Chen Yang nodded and said, "I know what to do. Once the personnel are confirmed, I will report it immediately."

Shanghai, Agent 76 Headquarters,

Li Qun and Ding Cun were a little surprised to see Chen Yang coming.

The minister seemed to seldom come to No. 76 in person to direct work.

Unless there is a problem with No. 76's work, he will ask about it intentionally or unintentionally.

Normally, when you go to someone’s house to ask for favors, they’re too lazy to respond.

"Director Li, Director Ding, we are all family, please stop standing and sit down."

In the office, Chen Yang extended his hand and asked the two to sit down, as if he was the owner of this office.

Li Qun and Ding Cun looked at each other, and Li Qun said, "It's rare for Minister Chen to come to No. 76 to guide our work. Does he have any tasks to tell us this time?"

Chen Yang nodded slightly and said, "Director Li is really a man of insight. I really don't come to see you for no reason."

"I just received a top-secret mission from the Special Forces Division of the Expeditionary Force."

"Now, you two need to select two groups of agents to assist each other in completing the mission."

"If this task is successfully completed, everyone will receive a large bonus and their position will be promoted by two levels."

"Of course, for the sake of confidentiality, the specific contents of the operation cannot be disclosed to you for the time being."

Li Qun and Ding Cun's faces froze. It was obvious that they did not trust No. 76 and were afraid that they would leak the action plan.

Chen Yang seemed to see through the two people's thoughts and said with a smile: "Don't think too much."

"This mission is highly confidential, and even I don't know the details."

"I didn't mean to target you two, or I don't trust No. 76."

Li Qun quickly said, "That's not what we meant. Please rest assured, Minister. We will definitely select the right person to participate in the operation as soon as possible."

Chen Yang nodded and said, "Thank you both for your help. If you need anything, you can tell me directly."

"As long as I can do it, I will fight for you."
