Chapter 205: First Arrival in Mountain City
“Tung oil is now said to be a strategic material, and the United States needs to import large quantities of it. This news came from the U.S. military.
People in our area don’t know yet that I’m going to stockpile a large amount of tung oil. It may not be long before we make a lot of money. Of course, if I make money, you two will also have bulging pockets!”
Gu Wenxuan said.
The two Japanese didn't care how Gu Wenxuan's business was doing. As long as they could make money, they were happy.
"Then Wenxuan-jun, just go ahead and do it. We will support you from behind!"
Gu Wenxuan said, "The reason why I invited you to dinner today is because I want you to support me from behind, because after I leave, the Special Operations Division under the Military Police will depend on you to take care of it!"
Upon hearing this, Oshima Kenji waved his hand and said in a very grand manner:
"Don't worry, Wenxuan-kun, I'll take care of this matter for you. I'll ask Major General Fei Tian to assign tasks to your secret service department, and there will be no problem.
Besides, your rickshaw driver Xiangzi and Mr. Liu Zhengqian can completely manage the daily affairs of your secret service department."
Wenxuan quickly raised a glass of wine and said to Oshima Kenji:
“Thank you very much, Oshima-kun. This is why I invited you here today.
I'm afraid that after I'm gone, General Hieda will assign me a more serious mission, and there will be no one to command our Secret Service Department, which might affect the Imperial Army!
If Oshima-kun can coordinate, I will be very grateful. Let's have a drink to thank Oshima-kun!"
After eating and drinking, Gu Wenxuan gave each of them a check for 50,000 yen as a reward.
The two men accepted the check happily and then everyone went home.
Gu Wenxuan returned home and told his parents that he was going to the mainland.
Tell parents to go directly to Xiangzi from the Secret Service if they have any problems.
Xiangzi will help them settle all matters. If that doesn't work, they can go to the secretary Kang Cheng of the police department. At this time, they have become familiar friends.
Now his parents are working happily in a pharmaceutical factory in the suburbs, counting piles of money.
So he didn't care where his son went. Anyway, he knew that his son was very capable now, and they were happy if he said he went into business.
At least they are not becoming die-hard traitors, and that is what makes them happiest.
Now that Ikeda was living with her parents, Gu Wenxuan didn't have to say anything else to her. He just told her that he was going out for business.
After explaining all these trivial matters, Gu Wenxuan boarded a plane and after several transfers finally arrived at the mountain city.
The mountain city is the temporary capital. Although it is a relatively remote place, it is still very lively.
Because of its status as a temporary capital, there are many wealthy businessmen and important military and political figures here.
Of course there are more poor people.
Gu Wenxuan traveled through the bumpy streets and alleys of the mountain city, admiring the scenery there.
Although he was also from Sichuan before he traveled through time, the mountain city in later generations was a megacity, not as shabby as it is now. Now he felt like he was touring those ancient cities in the mountain city.
As he was strolling on the street, he suddenly heard the air raid sirens.
Because I had never experienced this kind of air raid alarm, I didn't pay any attention and continued walking on the street.
However, a beggar-like young man bumped into him, and Gu Wenxuan clearly felt that this beggar-like man must have stolen his wallet.
He should have a few hundred dollars in his wallet and some Belarusian currency.
Gu Wenxuan didn't have that little money, so he didn't want to go through the trouble of calcium deficiency. Seeing that he looked pale and thin, he must be living a hard life.
But after running a few steps, the beggar turned back and said to him:
"Sir, we are on alert now. Why are you walking so slowly? Didn't you see the Japanese planes coming from the sky?"
Sure enough, Gu Wenxuan looked up and saw a large number of Japanese Zero fighters flying densely in the sky.
These Zero fighters were all bombers. They were seen dropping bombs randomly on the ground. Although most of the bombs were dropped into the Yangtze River, a large portion of them were also dropped into the urban area. Fires had started everywhere.
Gu Wenxuan curiously asked the beggar:
"These planes are flying over here and bombing everywhere. Where are we going to run? You see, even if you run, you can't outrun them."
The beggar thought to himself, where did this fool come from? But he still said kindly:
"Of course we have to run to the air-raid shelters. We will definitely be bombed if we run to these houses, but the air-raid shelters are all in the mountains and even the Japanese bombs can't penetrate them!"
Gu Wenxuan suddenly remembered that it was a mountain city. There were mountains everywhere, so there were many air-raid shelters. Even the Japanese bombs could not blow through these air-raid shelters.
So he followed the beggar and ran forward, and soon they came to a cliff.
There is an air-raid shelter built in front of the mountain wall, and there are people everywhere. Many people are squeezing into the cave, while some people are bold enough to look outside the cave.
The beggar saw that Gu Wenxuan was acting stupidly, and thought that he had taken someone's wallet mainly for money.
Saving him would be considered a reward from the owner to me, so I wouldn't be considered stealing from him, and I would feel much more at ease.
He kindly took Gu Wenxuan into the air-raid shelter.
They walked into the air-raid shelter, found a relatively relaxed place to squat down, and heard loud explosions outside.
There was a rustling sound in the air-raid shelter, and a lot of sand and dust fell down, but the people in the air-raid shelter didn't care about it. It seemed that they were already accustomed to the days of running away from the air-raid alarm.
At this time, Gu Wenxuan was looking at the beggar, who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was covered in dirt, and it was unclear whether he did it on purpose or if he was really that dirty. He also wore a tattered hat.
"Sir, you are not from our area, are you? Look, the plane alarm is going off, and you are walking slowly on the street!"
Gu Wenxuan also felt that this beggar was very generous. He emptied his own purse and even ran with him to sound the alarm.
Isn't he afraid that he will be found out that he stole his wallet? Arrest him.
Gu Wenxuan thought this knee was very interesting, so he started chatting with him:
"I am also from Sichuan, but my hometown is not in the mountain city. I am in the area of Lu County up there."
"Oh, I know the area around Lu County. They produce good wine there, but those places are very poor! Business is not easy!"
When Gu Wenxuan heard the little beggar say that business was bad, he almost laughed. He guessed that the business he was talking about was bad because there was no money in his pocket, right?
Originally, places like Lu County are small towns, where there are not so many rich people to touch their wallets. But here in the mountain city, there are rich old and young people everywhere, and there are many rich people. If these beggars can find a sucker in a day, the money will be enough to feed them for 10 days or half a month.
Gu Wenxuan smiled and said, "Your business today is good, right? It should be enough for you to live for at least two or three months, right?"
The little beggar was shocked. Could it be that this man was pretending to be crazy? Did he know that he had stolen his purse?
That shouldn't be the case. Doesn't he know that his hand is his own? He is a well-known thief in the whole mountain city. It's impossible for him to be the one who stole the purse. If he knew that I stole his wallet, wouldn't he have cried out?
