Mr. Situ looked at Hardy with surprise and admiration in his eyes. Some of Hardy's ideas coincided with his, and some ideas were even unexpected to him.

Hardy's words,

It made Mr. Situ think more and opened a window for his thoughts.

Is this all your own thinking?

Hardy smiled.

Hadi Group has its own think tank. Many of the things I said are based on the analysis made by the think tank based on the international situation and data. In fact, as long as there is enough data, we can make some judgments about the future.

It was my decision to invest in Hong Kong in the end, because I think the leader in the north is a wise politician, and I believe he will consider the role of Hong Kong.

Of course, I also have an element of gambling. If I win the bet, I can get huge profits in Hong Kong.

Then what if you lost the bet? Mr. Situ said.

I would like to bet and admit defeat. Hardy said with a smile.

Master Situ nodded.

He said to Hardy: Hadi, you are one of the few young people I have seen in so many years who are so capable and courageous.

Mr. Situ has a wealth of experience. He has come into contact with Roosevelt, President Chang, the great man and the beloved Prime Minister, as well as countless businessmen and politicians. He can be said to be capable and courageous, which is a great affirmation to Hardy.

The man was praised by his grandfather, and Han Yezhen smiled.

The tea is brewed.

Serve a cup to Grandpa, and another to Hardy.

The old man took a sip of tea and nodded in satisfaction, Yizhen's craftsmanship is pretty good.

Putting down his teacup, Old Master Situ looked at Hardy and said, I will go north again in a few days, and maybe I will stay for a while. I wonder if you have anything to say to me?

Hardy understood who the old man was referring to.

Do you want to bring something?

Finally thought about it.

No.

Master Situ chuckled twice, It's fine if you don't have one.

Not a few days later.

Invited by the north, Mr. Situ set off for the north.

The inland war developed rapidly. At the beginning of May, the army approached Shanghai, which caused a great sensation. As an oriental metropolis, Shanghai was very well-known, even far surpassing capital cities such as Beiping and Nanjing.

People in Hong Kong are even more fluctuating.

More and more people are selling assets, and the price of assets is falling again and again. The Hardy Group took the opportunity to absorb a large number of industries.

at the same time.

Some inland entrepreneurs left the inland and went to Hong Kong to escape disaster, and at the same time brought a lot of money, especially gold and silver.

The most famous banks in Hong Kong today are naturally HSBC, Wells Fargo and Citigroup. During this period, HSBC and Wells Fargo Bank have absorbed large amounts of deposits and precious metals, and the amount of deposits has continued to grow.

Many of the people who came brought antiques.

Hardy's Auction Company also took the opportunity to acquire a large number of antiques at very low prices, many of which are high-quality goods.

this evening.

Mr. Xu, who had been in touch with Victor, hurried to find Victor late at night, Mr. Victor, I have something very important to discuss with you.

Oh~ what's the matter?

Shanghai is under siege, do you know?

Of course I know, the news is reported every day, and I am also very concerned about the news in the interior. Victor said.

The thing is, the central bank's treasury in the south is in Shanghai. Now Shanghai is under siege. The south plans to transport the last batch of gold from the treasury to the island. We got detailed information. Since they don't have warships, they plan to use civilian cargo ships to smuggle it there. .”

Although we can get the exact information, to tell you the truth, we don't have the ability to intercept it now. The above means that we want to cooperate with you on this matter. We will provide the exact information and you will take the shot. We will share the money equally .”

Before we owed you a large sum of money, which can be deducted from the share, and the excess will be converted into cash and placed in your bank to facilitate the purchase of supplies in the future.

Victor was surprised to hear the news.

He didn't dare to agree to such a big thing like a national-level robbery.

This matter is too big, I can't make the decision, I need to ask my boss for instructions. Victor said.

Of course, but please don't delay, because the time is tight, and the Shanghai side is already loading the ship, and I'm afraid it will set sail tomorrow morning at the latest. Mr. Xu said.

How many belongings are there? Victor asked.

About 10 tons of gold, 15 million silver dollars, and some other valuables such as antiques, jewellery, jade, pearls, etc. It's hard to estimate the exact value. Mr. Xu said.

At this time, Hardy had already fallen asleep, and Han Yizhen was walking in his arms.

Suddenly the phone rang.

Hardy opened his eyes and picked up the phone beside the bed. Victor's voice came from the other end of the phone, Boss, I'm sorry to disturb you. I have something very urgent to report to you.

You said. Hardy was already awake.

Victor told Hardy exactly what Mr. Xu said, and Hardy was taken aback when he heard it.

He knew that when the bald head evacuated, all valuables were removed. It is said that a total of 150 tons of gold and tens of millions of taels of silver were removed.

In the bald army in the north, there are countless eyeliners. Their actions have already been mastered, but they didn't have the power to intercept them at that time, so they could only watch things being removed.

What was left to the rabbit back then was really clean and innocent. With super perseverance, the rabbit gritted his teeth and went from abject poverty to second in the world step by step.

Unexpectedly, in this world, Bei Bian got in touch with him and asked himself to snatch this batch of gold.

Hardy made a calculation in his head.

10 tons of gold, based on the current gold-dollar exchange rate, is worth about 13 million U.S. dollars, and 15 million silver dollars is worth about 3.5 million U.S. dollars. There is also a batch of antique jewelry with a total estimated value of about 20 million U.S. dollars.

$20 million.

Hardy thought it was worth grabbing.

It's a pity that my warships are too far away, and I don't have time to call them here. Otherwise, I can make the opponent surrender obediently by firing a cannon.

But that's okay.

You can still grab it without a battleship.

Regarding the equal split mentioned by the North, it is actually a bit unfair to Hardy. They only provided one clue, and they wanted to take half of it. They have to work hard for Bara, which is much more than they paid.

But Hardy still chose to agree.

Who calls the rabbit poor?

They owed themselves so much money, and there was no way to pay it back. This time, they could get a sum of money from the bald head, and the ones in the north could also withhold it, which was actually in their best interest.

As for the robbery.

Hardy never took him seriously.

It's not that I haven't done it before, and this is one of my old professions.

Victor, tell the other party, let's take over this matter, I will ask the security company and intelligence personnel to find you now, you mobilize a few free ships with weapons to intercept at sea.

Hardy thought for a while, and then said: Fly my plane out, it can be used for maritime patrols to search for targets, the intelligence people know how to do it.

I understand Mr. Hardy. Victor said.

When Mr. Xu heard Victor's promise, he was overjoyed, I'll go back right away, and I'll let you know any more definite news.

Okay, let's prepare separately.

late at night.

All the HD security team members were called up, dressed up and drove to the pier, where there were already four Liberty ships waiting here.

Each of Hardy’s Liberty Wheels is equipped with weapons. Heavy machine guns and rockets are standard configurations. Since the cannons are too conspicuous, they have been changed to store a few M-2 heavy mortars to deal with evil strategies. of emergencies.

The theoretical range of the M-2 mortar is about 4 kilometers.

After the personnel got on the ship, several ships set off immediately. They were in Hong Kong, and the other party was in Shanghai, and the distance to the island was even closer than them. Full speed ahead.

Two hours later.

Mr. Xu came to deliver the news.

I have learned that the other party's ship number is 069. It is a 5,100-ton cargo ship with 260 guards on board. Apart from gold and silver antiques, the rest on the other party's ship is the production equipment of important enterprises in Shanghai, such as imported machine tools, production lines, etc.

In fact, this ship was originally intended to transport these machinery and equipment. Because of the emergency of the war, it was temporarily requisitioned by the military, so it became a ship for transporting gold.

After dawn.

Buzz buzz~~!

A B-29 bomber at Hong Kong Airport took off and flew north. People from the intelligence department installed high-power radios on the plane, ready to send messages at any time.

After the No. 069 ship loaded the supplies at the Shanghai wharf, it asked for instructions on whether it could set sail. The military department also asked the upper management for approval. After dawn, the No. 069 ship slowly left the port and headed for the sea.

The whole voyage takes about three days.

one day later.

While the freighter was sailing on the sea, a large plane passed by at a low altitude. Many crew members and escort soldiers on the No. 069 ship saw it and looked at the plane in the sky curiously. Ordinarily, the plane should not fly so low on the sea. right.

A knowledgeable person said: It looks like an American plane, it is the B-29 bomber that dropped the atomic bomb on little Japan.

Oh, this is the B-29 bomber. I've seen it in newspapers before. This is the first time I've seen a real plane.

This is a meritorious fighter plane, could it be an American on it, hello~! Someone giggled and waved at the plane.

After confirming the position of ship No. 069, B-29 returned. At this moment, the four ships of Hardy Shipping had been sailing day and night and were approaching the strait. The plane sent a message to the freighter to inform them of the other party's position, and then returned to Hong Kong.

Go back and refuel.

the next day.

The plane set sail again and flew towards the strait. After flying more than 200 kilometers across the strait, the 069 freighter was found again on the sea. At this moment, the four freighters were already waiting in front.

The soldiers on the freighter saw the bomber again, and this time they were not curious but surprised, why it flew back again.

The plane flew back to the vicinity of Hardy's fleet, and sent a report to inform 069 of its latest position. The four freighters began to outflank 069 in a fan shape.

The plane made a circle in the sky, and when it came over the cargo ship 069 again, the intelligence personnel used a high-power radio to communicate with the cargo ship, telling the other party that it was a US military aircraft and was invited to escort it.

The officers on the ship were overjoyed when they heard this.

There is an American plane escorting it. My God, has the principal reached an agreement with the Americans again? Otherwise, why would such a large plane come over.

Now that the Americans have bases in Japan, if the Americans start to aid them again and then send a large army to support them, there may not be no possibility of a successful counterattack.

As for doubts.

To be honest, the officers on the ship really had no doubts.

Because in this world, apart from the U.S. military having such bombers, who can send out such a battlefield killer.

Not long after, the plane sent another message that there will be several cargo ships disguised as escort ships, and they will sail together at that time, which will be more concealed.

The officers didn't doubt him, but felt that the Americans were too detailed and caring to sneak into the cargo fleet, and no one doubted their purpose.

At this moment in the vast sea, they have no way to contact anyone, and they have no idea that this is a scam of Chiguoguo.

not long time,

A few large cargo ships appeared in front of them, with the Mi Zi flag hanging on them. The captain smiled and said, I know this ship, the American Liberty Ship.

The officer was even less suspicious.

And there is a sense of joy.

Because Americans are starting to support them again, the party-state still has hope.

The four freighters made a circle, sandwiched ship No. 069 two times in front and two behind. The officer smiled at the captain and said, Look at the protection, the Americans still attach great importance to us.

Continued to drive forward for dozens of nautical miles. At this time, it was getting late, and the ship ahead sent a flag, requesting to drive close to the coastline, looking for a suitable place to berth, and at the same time asking the person in charge of the cargo ship to board the ship and sign an escort document.

The No. 069 cargo ship did not doubt that he was there, and followed them to the shallow sea. Several ships anchored and stopped, and the two ships behind came directly and stopped next to 069.

The officer in charge this time, after tidying up his military uniform, took his secretary to board the Liberty Ship cargo ship, but as soon as he entered the cabin, he saw a group of foreigners, and these guys grabbed his arms and controlled them.

What are you doing? Aren't we our own people? Aren't you here to protect us? the officer shouted.

It is indeed here to protect you, but it is also necessary. A foreigner said in not very fluent Chinese.

The officer was a little confused.

Then the security team rushed into No. 069 with guns. The soldiers on board were eating. They were dumbfounded when they saw a group of foreign soldiers rushing in with guns. They didn't know what happened.

We were ordered to take over the ship. Your officers are suspected of transferring property, which violated the laws of the country. Now it is under our control. You also need to abide by the regulations, otherwise we will take action and all go to the warehouse now.

The soldiers were stupefied and thought that their commander had betrayed the principal and wanted to smuggle away the treasure.

Then he was discovered by the principal and sent Americans to catch up and deal with it.

These unidentified soldiers were locked in the cabin on the bottom floor, and the freighter was controlled. After a short time, the freighter lifted anchor and started driving again. This time, the destination was Hong Kong.

two days later.

The principal of a certain school received a telegram saying that the ship transporting gold had not yet arrived and was seriously delayed. The principal was furious and asked to investigate thoroughly immediately. You must know that it was a lot of money, and he would be very distressed if he lost it.

But in the end, it was found that the boat disappeared inexplicably.

No one knows where it went?

Some people even suspected that they were silent on the rocks.

They didn't know that after the ship arrived in Hong Kong, after the gold, silver dollars and antique jewelry were quickly unloaded, as for the captured soldiers, no one was allowed to disembark except for all weapons.

Hardy asked another batch of supplies to be added, including a large amount of cotton, cloth, rubber shoe soles, sugar, penicillin newly released by a Hong Kong pharmaceutical factory, and the machine tools on the original ship. In short, the ship was full.

The original ship's number was erased, and a foreign national flag was hung again. With the captain, crew, officers and soldiers on the original ship, they drove to Lianyungang.

A few days later, when the captured officers and soldiers disembarked, they were stunned to see soldiers with guns all around them.

A serious sense of space-time disorder arises in my heart.

Their ship sailed on the sea for two days, and was later controlled by American soldiers. After a few days of flickering, it fell into the hands of the North.

How did this trick happen?

They couldn't figure it out no matter what.

I wonder if I have crossed over.

And when the receiving officer saw the supplies on the ship, he opened his mouth happily. This time, the capitalists were the most generous, and the ship was full of supplies.

In the end even the boat was given to them.

However, there are requirements before leaving, that is, the information of this operation cannot be leaked out, so these prisoners must be managed well.

The rabbit said that we are very good at this.

Don't beat you, don't scold you, education will transform you.
