Chapter 322 [Wind Chaser 21]
At the same time, Lei Ming had arrived in Shanghai, and Youyou's people had already picked him up in advance.
That day, Lei Ming, wearing simple clothes and cleverly disguising himself, stepped into a clothing store.
The store was silent, with only the slight sound of clothes rubbing against each other echoing.
Xu Nuo didn't recognize Lei Ming at first. Lei Ming quietly pulled up his hat, and Xu Nuo recognized him. He quickly pulled Lei Ming upstairs.
Time flies, and they haven't seen each other for a long time, but their deep friendship has not diminished in the slightest with the passage of time.
Xu Nuo was surprised and asked, "Why did the higher-ups send you here?"
Lei Ming said, "I can't help it. I am the only one in the organization who is fluent in German and is very familiar with the field of foreign trade. But you don't have to worry. Comrade Iris met me as soon as I arrived in Shanghai. Comrade Iris arranged a group of people to protect me, so my safety is guaranteed."
"That's good. Have you met Comrade Iris? He has helped us several times in previous missions, but I have never seen his true face." Xu Nuo said.
"I haven't seen it, but it's better this way. If we are caught, Comrade Iris will not reveal his identity too early." Lei Ming said.
Xu Nuo nodded to show his agreement.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Nuo handed the detailed information about Deweihans collected by Shen Jinzhen to Lei Ming, and asked him to make adequate preparations in advance.
At the same time, Shen Tunan came to visit Hans under the name of Lei Ming. Hans heard that it was Lei Ming who sent someone to invite him, and went to meet him happily, but when he saw that the visitor was Shen Tunan, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
Hans stated straight away that the purpose of his trip to Shanghai was to terminate the cooperation with the Nanjing government. It turned out that the Nanjing government had repeatedly failed to fulfill the terms of the contract as agreed, resulting in a serious delay in the supply of goods.
In addition, Hans had found a more reliable partner and presented on the spot an official letter signed by the German Minister to China, stating that he would completely terminate all cooperation projects with the National Government in the military field.
Shen Tunan looked at Hans with a smile, and said in a firm and sincere tone: "I am very aware that this move to take back the customs custody rights may bring a huge impact on the interests of foreign merchants. But please believe me, I also fully realize the impact of this decision and am willing to take corresponding measures to compensate for everyone's losses."
He paused for a moment and continued, "We all know that the times are constantly changing, and the country's policy adjustments are also to better adapt to the new situation and promote sustained and healthy economic development. As a government official, I must consider issues from a global perspective to ensure that the fundamental interests of the country and the people are protected. At the same time, I also understand that foreign investors have invested and operated in our country for many years and have made important contributions to economic growth. Therefore, we will definitely give reasonable compensation to companies affected by policy changes."
After saying these words, Shen Tunan looked into Hans' eyes, as if trying to convey his sincerity and determination through his eyes.
Hans refused to accept the offer and said, "If the Nanjing government does not resume supply, you will have to pay Rheinmetall 130 million marks as liquidated damages. We will then use the money to purchase tungsten ore from southern Jiangxi. The tungsten ore in southern Jiangxi accounts for two-thirds of the total in China. Compared to you, the Chinese Communist Party still has more tungsten ore."
Shen Tunan revealed to Hans with a proud look on his face: "Hehe, to tell you the truth, the Nanjing government has invested a huge amount of money this time! They have dispatched a full 300,000 elite troops, and are equipped with the most advanced air combat units. These are the aces among aces! Their goal is to encircle and wipe out the CCP base in southern Jiangxi in one fell swoop. As soon as the war breaks out, the CCP will surely be unable to take care of itself, so how can it have the time and energy to deliver the goods on time? By then, you will have gained nothing!" As he spoke, he showed a sly smile, as if he had already seen the scene after his plan succeeded.
