When you come to Nanjing, you must go to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, but just when Lu Yuan was about to go out, Hogg brought people back. "Boss, it's great to see you." Hogg, who was haggard, was as excited as if he had seen God when he saw Lu Yuan. "You don't have much money for us, and this time I have brought back not only a large amount of grain and dried vegetables, but also a batch of coal. But I don't have much money left, and I'm still a little short of what I should pay to the hired men, so can you give me some more money?" ”

Hogg's words made Lu Yuan raise his eyebrows, 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 for the ocean first." Shu Heman, who was following Lu Yuan, also squeezed his eyebrows at Hogg at this time, as a witness, he knew how many Jinjo Lu Yuan had brought.

Compared with Schuchmann, Hogg was much more careful, and after seeing the gold bars that Lu Yuan brought to Nanjing, Hogg's eyes were full of excitement. "Boss, this is great, I'm worrying about how to convince those guys in Xuzhou City, now that we have enough funds, this matter is much easier." Hogg opened his leather bag very excitedly, and without waiting for Lu Yuan to ask, he took out a few pages and handed them to Lu Yuan.

"Boss, what you want is a refugee camp that can accommodate 100,000 people, after we came to Nanjing, we rented a house in the Xiaofenqiao area according to your wishes, and gradually found that there were many loopholes in your plan, so I began to gradually improve your plan. Food and fuel weren't the top priorities in the camps, doctors and medicine were the key, so I sent people to the Xuzhou area early on to find expatriates we could employ. ”

"Xuzhou, like Nanjing, has a lot of expatriates living there, and the people I sent there quickly contacted some of them, including the medical staff we needed the most, but I didn't have enough of them, so I never replied. This is a list of the specialties and abilities of all the people who can be hired by us, and those marked with red pen are all the people we need. ”

After reading the information handed over by Hogg, Lu Yuan expressed his satisfaction, "Hogg, you have done a good job, you can immediately send someone to contact Xuzhou, all these years the people you want to hire can be sent to Nanjing, but you have to pay attention to one thing, the total number of people we hire should not exceed 500 people, and the money bag in charge of your boss is empty again." Since Lu Yuan had already made up his mind to hand over the affairs of the refugee camp to Hogg to lead, he naturally did not suspect the other party, so he simply handed over all the gold bars he brought to Nanjing to Hogg.

"Schuchmann, now it's okay, Hogg has taken all my gold bars, and I'm a poor man again." Seeing Hogg hurrying to the bank to exchange gold bars, Lu Yuan didn't have the intention of going to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, and then conspired with Schuchmann behind closed doors in his residence. As early as when Lu Yuan sent Schuchman and Hogg to Nanjing, he had foreseen that there might be financial difficulties at that time, so Schuchman had always been tasked with a secret mission entrusted to him by Lu Yuan.

"Boss, according to your orders, after I came to Nanjing, I secretly did some investigations, after all, there are some guys in the hands of people we hired locally who can help me." Shu Heman, who was asked by Lu Yuan, handed a file bag to the other party, and then explained carefully for Lu Yuan. "Boss, Nanjing is not Shanghai after all, although there are also tobacco sellers here, but they are not as arrogant as Shanghai, and most of them are carried out in the form of private transactions, and I only locked up a few of the tobacco dealers."

"This person's name is Xiao Dachuan, originally a tea merchant in Anhui, and then I don't know what happened to do the business of pouring tobacco, I heard that this person has something to do with Sanxin Company in Shanghai. I have his address and a topographical map of his house here, but Xiao Dachuan's residence is not official and expensive, so it is not easy to start. The first copy of the information in Lu Yuan's hand is this Xiao Dachuan, while listening to Shu Heman's narration, while looking at the information in his hand, Lu Yuan has a feeling of a case analysis meeting in the future at this moment.

"This person's name is Huang Peng, and I heard that this person used to be an officer in the national army, and he was dismissed by the army because he offended his superiors. Later, he took some of his soldiers to do the business of making a mistake. This Huang Peng and Xiao Dachuan are rivals, but Nanjing is not Shanghai, so even if the two of them can't tolerate each other, they can't make a big move. However, I heard that last month, the two of them also had a big fight because of a batch of tobacco, and in the end it seems that Xiao Dachuan suffered a loss. ”

Hearing that Schuhman said that Xiao Dachuan and Huang Peng were rivals, Lu Yuan had no interest in looking through other people's information, and the relationship between such a sandpiper and clam happened to be profited by himself, a fisherman. "Schuchman, I don't care how many people they have, I only care how much money the two of them have." Lu Yuan took the cigarette handed by Shu Heman, reached out and tapped the table with a smile.

Shu Heman took out a lighter to help Lu Yuan light the cigarette, and laughed along, "Boss, this Xiao Dachuan not only has four grain stores in Nanjing City, but also his family has two goods stores in the north and south and two in the silk village, even if he doesn't pour out the smoke, the Xiao family is also very rich." That Huang Peng bought and sold people, lent usury, and opened two casinos and three brothels. ”

"Then start preparing, just take the two of them, or those people under your command won't get paid." The two of them closed the door, and two robberies were decided in just a few words, such a weird and funny thing made Lu Yuan couldn't help but turn his head and laugh at Shu Heman. In just one week, several robberies broke out in succession in the already tense city of Nanjing, and the bold robbers actually took advantage of the cover of night to brazenly break into the victim's house and loot all the victim's belongings.

The police in Nanjing were anxious about this, but no matter how they investigated, they did not 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 was brought to the fore, and naturally Chairman Jiang in the presidential palace knew about it. "Niang Xipi, at the time of national crisis, there is such a bizarre case in the capital of a country. Check it for me, check it carefully, and make sure to find out who dares to do it. Chairman Jiang was so furious that he almost smashed his baby teacup.

With the help of the military, the Nanjing Police Department urgently mobilized manpower and began a detailed investigation, but it is obvious that the investigation can not be completed in a short period of time. After the people hired by Hogg from Xuzhou rushed to Nanjing one after another, Lu Yuan felt more and more that there was not enough time, and with the increase of personnel, many problems that had not been thought of in advance were gradually exposed.

"No, the escort team is a top priority, and if the outdoor IE is understaffed, there is no way to ensure the safety of the refugee camp. You don't have to worry about weapons and uniforms, you just need to make sure that all the men who have been recruited at the moment can join the convoy and receive a certain level of training in peace. At the daily meeting, Lu Yuan was angry at Hogg for the first time, and vetoed Hogg's idea of expanding the medical team.

"Hogg, we're a refugee camp, not a hospital. Refugees can get hurt, but the injuries shouldn't be severe, so we just need some nurses who can clean and bandage the wounds, and the doctors don't have to prepare too much. Seeing that Hogg didn't seem to understand what he meant, Lu Yuan immediately slowed down his speech and continued to Hogg. Hogg, I just want a civilian refugee camp that can help the civilians of Nanjing, not a shelter. We absolutely cannot take in wounded soldiers, otherwise the Japanese will definitely use us as an excuse to take in wounded soldiers from the Nationalist Army. ”

When Lu Yuan said the last paragraph, only Shu Heman's eyes flickered slightly, in fact, only Shu Heman knew some of Lu Yuan's secret arrangements. "Hogg, I've thought of a solution for you about the lack of nurses you mentioned." Facing the unrelenting Hogg, Lu Yuan smiled and handed the other party a note, which had an address written on the door.

"Jinling Women's College of Arts and Sciences?" Hogg opened the note in disbelief, but the contents of the note left Hogg confused.

"That's right, it's Jinling Women's Liberal Arts College, this girls' school is a Western-style school, and I think their principal should be willing to accept a gift, in exchange, maybe those female students who have received a Western education should be happy to serve as caregivers in our refugee camp." Lu Yuan explained to Hogg with a smile, but in fact, instigating Hogg to go to Jinling Women's Liberal Arts College was just a selfish motive on Lu Yuan's part, and he didn't want to see those innocent female students being damned by the Japanese army*.

"Boss, why didn't you tell Hogg the truth? Hogg was supposed to be someone who could keep secrets. After the meeting, Schuchmann whispered to Lu Yuan when no one was present, and Schuchmann knew Hogg better than Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan knew what Shu Heman was talking about, and then shook his head lightly at the other party.

"Schuchmann, not everyone is able to keep secrets, and I'm not saying Hogg isn't worth trusting. What I want to say is that the fewer people who know about that incident, the safer it is, after all, that incident may involve the lives of hundreds or even more people, and we must be cautious, and we must never tolerate the slightest difference, otherwise it will cause great trouble. ”
