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

Chapter 735: Gift from Rogers

, Shanghai Stock Exchange, Meihua Building, Joint Transport Department.

As time entered late December, work in the combined transport department gradually became less busy.

Although the mainland issued a policy and guidance plan on "Completely Solving the Chinese Incident", the shortage of troops is a problem that cannot be ignored.

There are less than 800,000 troops stationed in China now.

The Kwantung Army and the Mongolian Army in northeast China also had to guard against the Soviet Army on the Far East battlefield.

The remaining troops were all led by the Chinese Expeditionary Army, including the current North China Front Army and other troops.

On the surface, the troops stationed in China have an absolute advantage, occupying almost two-thirds of the major cities.

But the actual situation is far from being so optimistic.

China is a vast country with abundant resources. Compared with major cities, the vast rural areas are the main habitat of the anti-Japanese armed forces.

Although the Japanese occupied the main cities, there were simply not enough resources in the cities...

Most of the resources are still in the wild...

At the beginning of the invasion of China, the Japanese only had to face the Nationalist army, but as time went on, the Red Party's forces continued to expand.

While the Kuomintang army held down the front battlefield, the Red Party troops vigorously established bases behind enemy lines.

It seemed that the two sides were at loggerheads and would fight from time to time, but in many places the Red Party and the Kuomintang army had the same goals.

"Knock knock knock." There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Chen Yang said without raising his head.

"Creaky," the door opened, and Higashino Daimu came forward with an emergency material transfer order and said, "Minister, this is the emergency material transfer review report requested by the North China Front Army."

"Well, we've only been fighting for a few days, why are you asking for supplies again?" Chen Yang took the report, looked it up and down and said, "Another 1,100 tons of supplies."

"Commander Tada is not very useful in fighting, but he is diligent in requesting the allocation of supplies."

"Recently, Major General Sato of the Expeditionary Force Logistics Department has been unable to sleep well because of him."

"He needs a batch of supplies every few days. Does he really think that the supplies in the empire's warehouses are dropped from the sky?"

Higashino Oki echoed, "The Minister is right. From the beginning of November to now, the North China Front Army has taken away nearly two to three thousand tons of various supplies."

"Not only us, but also Shanxi, North China, Central China, and several other regions have been plundered by them."

"They still haven't solved the problem of the Red Party in North China. I don't know how they did it."

Chen Yang picked up the pen and quickly wrote a few lines of big words on the review opinion letter below.

"We can't just give them as much as they want." Chen Yang returned the report to Dongye Damu and said, "This time we will allocate 400 tons, and we will discuss the rest in mid-January."

Higashino Oki was stunned for a moment, and whispered: "Minister, Commander Tada will definitely have an opinion if you do this."

"Any opinions?" Chen Yang put down his pen and said, "I heard that they are doing very well in the material trade with the National Government Army in Zhongtiao Mountain."

"Using the Empire's supplies to fill their coffers is absolutely not allowed."

"Hitsuno-kun, follow my instructions and send the dispatch form to the logistics department, and ask them to raise funds as soon as possible."

"Hi," Higashino Daiki bowed slightly, saluted, and left the office.

Chen Yang rubbed his eyebrows and leaned back in his chair. He had just rested for less than five minutes when there was another rapid knock on the door.

Chen Yang sat up straight and said, "Come in."

He Yuehua pushed open the office door and said, "Minister, a Mr. Rogers came to see you."

"He said he had something great to give you."

Rogers, the Jew? What good could he have?

Chen Yang thought for a while, and said, "Let him in."

He Yuehua bowed slightly, turned around and walked out of the office.

"Minister Chen, I'm sorry for my disrespect." Rogers walked into the office with a briefcase under his arm and said, "I didn't know yesterday that you, Mr. Chen, held such an honorable position. I'm a bit abrupt by coming here today. Please forgive me for being so abrupt."

Chen Yang raised his hand and made a gesture for him to sit down. He said, "Mr. Rogers, I have already told you very clearly. If you are still concerned about the penicillin issue."

"Well, I think you need to have your boss come talk to me."

Rogers smiled and said, "Minister Chen, I have discussed this issue with my boss."

"His opinion is that it's not the right time yet."

Chen Yang raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Rogers, what do you mean by this?"

Rogers waved his hand quickly and said, "Minister Chen, please don't misunderstand me."

"Our boss has studied the sales of medicines in the Shanghai market."

"For now, the drugs sold can only be supplied to Asia, or the Chinese battlefield at best."

"You don't have any extra goods for us."

"Even if we have a huge distribution network, you can't get enough drugs."

"Of course, just because it's not possible now doesn't mean it won't be possible in the future."

"Our intelligence personnel have already found out that Mr. George is trying to expand the production line."

"However, it will take at least one or two years for those drugs to come out."

"So, what our boss means is that we have a long time to go and there is no rush to meet."

Chen Yang was shocked and thought to himself, "These Jews are really capable."

"The production of penicillin can be estimated simply from the sales of penicillin in the Shanghai market."

However, he had to admit that Rogers was right.

Currently, penicillin is still made from moldy cantaloupe and pumpkin, and production capacity cannot be increased.

However, the Sheffield University laboratory is already looking for alternative raw materials, and now they plan to use corn as raw material.

Corn production is extremely high all over the world. If the experiment is successful, production capacity can be greatly improved.

Moreover, George is still looking for new partners. In the next one or two years, the production capacity of penicillin can be increased by at least five to ten times.

Chen Yang leaned back against the chair and said, "Since you are not in a hurry to meet, what is Mr. Rogers' purpose of coming here?"

Rogers took out a sealed file bag from his bag and handed it to Chen Yang solemnly, saying, "Our boss said that the first step in doing business with you Chinese people is to learn how to give gifts, so that we can establish a good relationship."

"This information is his gift to you."

Chen Yang laughed, took the file bag from the other party and said, "Your boss really knows a lot about China."

As he spoke, Chen Yang slowly opened the file bag, revealing a stack of documents inside.

Strangely enough, the documents were all written in German.

Chen Yang's heart moved slightly, and the system synchronization function was turned on. The next second, Chen Yang jumped up suddenly.

"Operation Barbarossa..."

There are still a few hundred words left for the next chapter. I'm a little stuck. I'm going to have a midnight snack and will continue when I come back...
