The Two Heroes of the Ye Family
Chapter 232: Speculation Comes True
Director Tian of the Wucheng Special Service Bureau already knew that all the forty people he had arranged to go there were beaten to death.
The only consolation was that the mysterious team appeared in time to ambush and wiped out a large group of Japanese devils in one go.
According to information obtained from other channels, the factory on the nameless island was destroyed in a sea of fire.
It is said that there is no one alive on the nameless island.
By the evening, Director Tian had confirmed that the factory on the nameless island was the one that produced counterfeit legal tender.
This news made him very happy and he didn't care at all about the 40 agents who died.
For him, achieving the goal is more important.
That night, national radio broadcasts broadcast the heroic deeds of Secret Service agents who raided a counterfeit currency factory at night.
Teacher Chen learned from the radio that a large group of Japanese devils were ambushed and more than 1100 people were killed.
This is truly a big deal.
I hope the brothers in the special forces team are safe.
Two days later, Ye Xiaoyang met Yamaguchi Hirohito who had returned from the Japanese Empire at the Shanghai Peace Hotel.
"Yamaguchi-kun, how do you feel about returning to the Empire?"
"The Empire is in a state of depression. Now, anyone turning 16 will be conscripted into the Imperial Army."
"Yamaguchi-kun, are you sure you're 16?"
"Yes! Unless the family is rich and can pay for their son not to join the army."
"How's the Yamaguchi family's loan from the Imperial Bank going? Is it going smoothly?"
"Overall, everything went smoothly. Our Yamaguchi family worked hard to obtain a loan of 2 million yen from several major banks in the empire.
The loan term is five years and the annual interest rate is 4%.
When I left Tokyo, my family had already exchanged the loan for US dollars and gold at the bank."
"The annual interest rate is relatively low, and the Yamaguchi family can earn a large portion of the profit from this loan."
"Some elders in the family are a little worried."
“Actually, there’s no need to worry. As long as the empire is defeated, we’ll make a fortune.
And the Empire is doomed to fail in this war."
"Yes! The family patriarch also said so. Some people in Tokyo City said that the Empire wants to dominate the Pacific.
This is probably not groundless.”
Ye Xiaoyang thought for a moment and said:
"Hawaii, the United States, is located in the Pacific Ocean. This is the Pearl Harbor military base of the United States.
If the Imperial Navy wants to dominate the Pacific, it must defeat the American army at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii."
"Fight, fight sooner rather than later."
Ye Xiaoyang could feel that Yamaguchi Hirohito hoped that the army of the Japanese Empire would be defeated as soon as possible.
"Yamaguchi-kun, I also hope that the Empire and the United States will fight soon.
Back in Shanghai, I borrowed $3000 million from a foreign bank in the concession."
"3000 million US dollars? Miyamoto-kun is really bold."
“Investing is inherently a gamble, but I like the feeling of betting on myself.”
"Hahaha, Miyamoto-kun, I toast you."
……
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Ye Xiaoyang finally received the news he had been waiting for: the Japanese Empire launched a surprise attack on the Pearl Harbor base in Hawaii in the Pacific.
"Third brother, your guess has come true! The navy of the Japanese Empire attacked Pearl Harbor in the United States.
It is estimated that within three days, the Japanese devils stationed in Shanghai will launch a large-scale attack on the International Settlement."
Ye Xiaoyang had a disdainful expression.
"The little devils are indeed arrogant. Very good, very good."
Ye Minghao deeply agreed, and he also felt that the Japanese devils were courting their own destruction.
“If God wants someone to be perfect, he must first make him crazy. Our ancestors were good at summarizing and thinking.”
"Overall, we have been lucky. The last batch of gold was shipped out ten days ago."
"Yes! I'm afraid there will be problems in a few days."
"Brother, the days ahead will be even more dangerous, so you must be especially careful."
"Don't worry, I won't touch the intelligence, and the Japanese devils won't make things difficult for me for money.
At Agent 76 Headquarters, they don't dare mess with me. The only variable is the Secret Service agents."
"In the last night raid on a counterfeit currency factory, 40 Secret Service personnel were killed.
In the short term, I suspect they won't make any moves at all. Now the Secret Service's Hujiang Station needs to consider their hiding places."
"That's true. Without the barrier of the concession, the Secret Service personnel in Hujiang would probably be in a difficult situation."
The next day at work, Ye Minghao told Teacher Chen about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, the United States.
Teacher Chen was shocked by the news.
"Minghao, is this information reliable?"
"It's absolutely reliable. It was told to me personally by an officer of the Japanese Navy stationed in Shanghai.
The other party was very proud when he spoke.
"This is a good thing!"
"Teacher Chen, I estimate that the Japanese devils stationed in Shanghai will attack the International Settlement in a few days."
"The Japs are going to attack the International Settlement?"
"Well, go and inform the shopkeeper how many of our comrades are in the International Settlement and arrange for them to evacuate immediately.
If we miss the chance, it will be too late to withdraw."
"Minghao, I understand."
That night, members of the Communist Party living in the International Settlement evacuated the International Settlement in an orderly manner.
By noon the next day, the Japanese devils stationed in Hujiang had blocked all the exits of the International Settlement.
When the shopkeeper saw this situation, he could hardly believe that his luck was so good.
Fortunately, Shadow notified us in time. If we hadn't evacuated, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The Japanese devils are really quick.
After returning to his residence, the shopkeeper felt a little uneasy. He felt that Hujiang might be about to undergo a complete change.
Comrades who evacuated the International Settlement last night should leave Hujiang City and go outside Hujiang City as soon as possible.
That afternoon, members of the Communist Party organization who received the emergency notice left Hujiang City before dark.
The Japanese devils stationed in Shanghai blocked the city for a day and a half, and finally launched an attack on the International Settlement at midnight.
The allied forces protecting the International Settlement held out for only a few hours; by daybreak they had surrendered.
When the Japanese invaders attacked the International Settlement, Ye Xiaoyang sneaked into Citibank alone.
Coincidentally, he was practicing at home yesterday afternoon and accidentally broke through the intermediate level of Dark Power to reach the advanced level of Dark Power.
In Citibank, Ye Xiaoyang found the loan certificates for himself and his second brother Ye Minghao.
He couldn't open the Citibank vault on his own, but he quietly went to the bank's private safe.
After rummaging around in Citibank for half an hour, he took away a bag of jewelry and a bag of US dollars.
After delivering the two bags back to Villa No. 69, he visited two other banks.
One is the HSBC Bank of the British Empire, and the other is the German Imperial Bank.
The gains were similar to those from Hujiang Citibank. The two brothers got all the loan certificates from the three banks.
In one night, they harvested three boxes of jewelry and three boxes of banknotes, one box of US dollars, one box of British pounds, and one box of marks.
Bai Yufeng, Chen Haifeng and Song Changping were surprised by the jewelry and money Ye Xiaoyang brought back.
All three of them knew the exchange rates for the currencies.
There are twenty bundles of US dollars in a box, each bundle contains US$10, which is exactly US$200 million.
A box of pounds also contains twenty bundles, each with a face value of fifty dollars, 5 pounds per bundle, for a total of one million pounds.
Converted into US dollars, it is 400 million US dollars.
A box of marks also contains twenty bundles. The face value of a mark is 500 yuan, and each bundle is 100 million, which is exactly 1000 million marks.
One US dollar was exchanged for 2.5 marks, and 1000 million marks could be exchanged for 400 million US dollars.
They never dreamed that Junior Brother Ye would be able to bring back 1000 million US dollars in just one night.
There were also 3 bags of jewelry, which were estimated to be worth several million US dollars. I guess no one would believe it if I told them.
A few months ago, all the money that they and their fellow apprentices had deposited in Citibank in the International Settlement had been withdrawn.
"Junior Brother Ye, are you robbing the bank's vault?"
"No, I couldn't open the vault by myself, so I sneaked into the private safe."
"So, all this money belongs to foreigners?"
“I don’t know, some of them are probably traitors, but that’s not important.
If I don't get it back tonight, it will be confiscated by the Japanese devils tomorrow. It's better for me to get it back than for the Japanese devils to get it back."
"Junior brother, the Japanese devils should attack Hong Kong, right?"
"Of course. I'll find a chance to ask Senior Brother Changsheng and Senior Brother Jinda."
Bai Yufeng said quickly:
"Then my brother and his friends should have a great harvest. These foreigners are really rich."
Ye Xiaoyang said:
"Brother, this money was reaped by foreigners from the hands of ordinary people in our country of China."
Song Changping said:
"Junior Brother Ye, you should take us with you to empty these foreign banks."
Chen Haifeng said:
"That won't work. It's too much of a move. The Japanese devils will question these foreigners, and then we might be in trouble."
"Junior Brother Chen, you're not afraid of the Japanese devils, are you?"
"Senior Brother Song, don't talk nonsense. Senior Brother Chen is right. The ancients said that too much is as bad as too little.
We should not be too greedy and should know when to stop."
