Chapter 62
When you come to Nanjing, you must go to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, but when Lu Yuan was about to go out, Hogg brought someone back. "Boss, it's great to see you." Hogg with a haggard face was as excited as seeing God when he saw Lu Yuan. "The money you gave us is running out. This time I brought back not only a large amount of grain and dried vegetables, but also a batch of coal. But the money in my hands is running out, and the wages that should be paid to the hired workers are still short. Some, can you give me some more money?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows at Hogg's words, and then smiled at Hogg, "Of course, I came to Nanjing this time and brought enough funds for you to spend, but you need to exchange these gold bars into Dayang." Shu Heman, who was following Lu Yuan, also kept winking at Hogg at this time, as a witness, he knew how many pieces Lu Yuan had brought.

Compared with Schuchman, Hogg was much more careful. After seeing the gold bars that Lu Yuan brought to Nanjing with his own eyes, Hogg's eyes were full of excitement. "Boss, this is great. I was worrying about how to convince those guys in Xuzhou City. Now that we have enough funds, this matter will be much easier." Hogg opened his phone very excitedly. Leather bag, before Lu Yuan could ask, he took out a few pages and handed them to Lu Yuan.

"Boss, what you want is a refugee camp that can accommodate 10 people. After we came to Nanjing and rented houses in the Xiaofenqiao area according to your intention, we gradually discovered that there are many loopholes in your plan. So, I started to gradually improve your plan. Food and fuel are not the top priority of the refugee camp, doctors and medicine are the key, so I sent people to the Xuzhou area very early to find foreigners who can be hired by us person."

"Xuzhou is the same as Nanjing. There are many foreigners living there. The people I sent quickly contacted some of them. Among them are the medical staff we need most. It's just that I don't have enough, so there has been no reply. Over there. This is a list, which has marked the specialties and abilities of all the people who can be hired by us, and those marked with red pens are all the members of the family we need."

After reading the information Hogg handed over, Lu Yuan expressed his satisfaction, "Hogg, you have done a good job, you can send someone to contact Xuzhou right away, all the people you want to hire over the years can be sent to Nanjing , but you have to pay attention, the total number of people we employ should not exceed 500 people, and I will be in charge of your boss, but my money bag will be empty again." Now that Lu Yuan has made up his mind to hand over the affairs of the refugee camp to Hogg took the lead, so naturally he didn't mean to be suspicious of the other party, so he simply handed over all the gold bars he brought to Nanjing to Hogg.

"Schuheman, it's all right now. Hogg took all my gold bars, and I'm a poor man again." Watching Hogg hurried to the bank to exchange gold bars, Lu Yuan went to the Sun Yat-Sen Mausoleum After thinking about it, he and Schuchman nested in the residence and conspired behind closed doors.As early as when Lu Yuan sent Schuchman and Hogg to Nanjing, he had already foreseen that there might be financial difficulties at that time, so Schuchman has always been responsible for a secret mission entrusted to him by Lu Yuan.

"Boss, according to your order, after I came to Nanjing, I did some investigations secretly. After all, we are hired locally, and there are some guys who can help me." Shu Heman, who was asked by Lu Yuan, handed over a portfolio Give it to the other party, and then explain it carefully to Lu Yuan. "Boss, Nanjing is not Shanghai after all. Although there are some tobacco and soil sellers here, they are not as crazy as in Shanghai. Most of them are in the form of private transactions. I have only targeted a few of the tobacco and soil dealers."

"This man's name is Xiao Dachuan. He was originally a tea merchant in AH, but later he got involved in the tobacco business. I heard that this man has something to do with Sanxin Company in Shanghai. I have his address here. And the topographic map of his house, but the surrounding area of ​​Xiao Dachuan's residence is expensive, so it's not easy to start with." The first document in Lu Yuan's hand was this Xiao Dachuan, and while listening to Schuchman's narration, he Looking at the information in his hand, Lu Yuan feels a bit like the case analysis meeting in later generations.

"This man's name is Huang Peng. I heard that this man used to be an officer in the national army. He was dismissed by the army because he offended his superiors. Later, he led some soldiers under him to start a business. This Huang Peng and Xiao Dachuan is a deadly enemy, but Nanjing is not Shanghai, so even if the two of them can't tolerate each other, they can't make a big fight. But I heard that last month, the two gangs fought once over a batch of smoke, and it seems that Xiao Okawa suffered a loss."

Hearing Schumacher say that Xiao Dachuan and Huang Peng are rivals, Lu Yuan has no interest in looking through other people's information. Such a relationship between snipe and clam is just being exploited by himself, a fisherman. "Shu Heman, I don't care how many people they have, I'm only interested in how much money the two of them have." Lu Yuan took the cigarette from Shu Heman, reached out and tapped the table with a smile.

Schuchman took out a lighter to help Lu Yuan light his cigarette, and then laughed, "Boss, this Xiao Dachuan not only has four grain stores in Nanjing, but also has two stores in North and South and two stores in silk and satin. In the meantime, even if he doesn't waste money, the Xiao family is still very rich. That Huang Peng bought and sold people, lent usury, and opened two casinos and three brothels. If the two families add up, they will have hundreds of thousands of dollars. Ocean."

"Then start making preparations, just take them two, or those people under your command won't be able to get their wages." The two closed the door, and settled the two robberies with just a few words, and so on. The weird and funny thing made Lu Yuan couldn't help turning his head and laughing at Shu Heman.In just one week, several robbery cases occurred in succession in the already tense city of Nanjing. The daring robbers used the cover of night to blatantly break into the owner's house and ransacked the owner's property.

The police in Nanjing got angry because of this, but no matter how they searched, they couldn't find any clues.It wasn't until a material warehouse of the national army in the city was also burglarized that this series of cases became widely publicized, and naturally it was known by Chairman Jiang in the presidential palace. "Mother Xipi, when the country is in crisis, such a bizarre case will appear in the capital of a country. Check it out for me, check it carefully, and find out who dared it." Chairman Jiang was so angry that he almost threw his own Baby teacups are smashed.

With the help of the military, the Nanjing Police Department urgently mobilized manpower to start a detailed investigation, but it is obviously not possible to complete the investigation in a short period of time.For a while, there was a turmoil in Nanjing and everyone was in danger. Lu Yuan, who had already moved into Xiaofenqiao, did not pay attention to these trivial matters. After the people hired by Hogg from Xuzhou rushed to Nanjing one after another, Lu Yuan felt more and more that time was not enough. With the increase of personnel, many problems that were not thought of in advance were gradually exposed.

"No, the escort is the top priority. If the outdoor ie is short of manpower, the safety of the refugee camp will not be guaranteed. Don't worry about weapons and military uniforms. You just need to ensure that all the recruits are in the hands of those who Men can join the guards and receive a certain level of training with peace of mind." In the daily meeting, Lu Yuan got angry at Hogg for the first time, and rejected Hogg's idea of ​​expanding the medical team .

"Hogg, we are a refugee camp here, not a hospital. Refugees will be injured, but the degree of injury should not be serious, so we only need some nurses who can clean and bandage the wounds, and the doctors don't need to prepare too much Seeing that Hogg didn't seem to understand what he meant, Lu Yuan immediately slowed down and continued to Hogg. "Hogg, I just want a civilian refugee camp that can help the civilians in Nanjing, not a shelter. We absolutely cannot take in wounded soldiers, otherwise the Japanese will definitely use us to take in the wounded soldiers of the national army as an excuse." The reason is against us."

When Lu Yuan said the last words, only Shu Heman's eyes flickered a little in the crowd. In fact, only Shu Heman knew some of Lu Yuan's secret arrangements. "Hogg, I've already thought of a solution for you about the shortage of nurses you mentioned." Facing Hogg who was unrelenting, Lu Yuan smiled and handed him a note. with an address.

"Jinling Women's College of Arts and Science?" Hogg opened the note dubiously, but the contents of the note made Hogg confused.

"That's right, it's Jinling Women's College of Arts and Sciences. This girls' school is a Western-style school. I think their principals should be very willing to accept a gift. In exchange, perhaps those female students who have received Western education should be able to I'm very happy to be the nurse in our refugee camp." Lu Yuan smiled and explained to Hogg, but in fact, it was Lu Yuan's selfish desire to encourage Hogg to go to Jinling Women's College of Arts and Sciences, and he didn't want to see those innocent girls The students were humiliated by the damned Japanese soldiers.

"Boss, why didn't you tell Hogg the truth? Hogg should be a person who can keep a secret." After the meeting, when no one was present, Schuchman asked Lu Yuan in a low voice. Compared with Lu Yuan, Schuchman Learn more about Hogg.Lu Yuan knew what Shu Heman was talking about, and then shook his head slightly at the other party.

"Schuchman, not everyone can keep a secret. I'm not saying that Hogg is untrustworthy. What I want to say is that the fewer people who know about that matter, the safer it is. After all, that matter may involve We must be cautious when it comes to the lives of hundreds of people or even more, and absolutely cannot tolerate any mistakes, otherwise we will cause great trouble."
