Chapter 106: The Heart of Greed
The garden villa rented by Chen Gongshu on Masnan Road, French Concession.
It looks like an ordinary house, but in fact there are differences between inside and outside. Not only are there swimming gestures on the outside, but it is also a secret sentry that grandfather would otherwise be alert in the villa.
Chen Gongshu took great pains to make his own safety.
This is the location of the Military Control Commission’s Shanghai District. All personnel transfers and action orders in Shanghai District were issued from that place.
He and Zheng Jiayuan worked separately, and their purpose was naturally to make a plan. He, Zheng Jiayuan and Shanghai District Inspector Mao Wanli are the three giants in the Shanghai District of the Military Control Commission.
After the transfer of power, each person will bear his own affairs. Zheng Jiayuan is mainly responsible for the liaison and finance. Only when major matters need to be discussed will he go to the district office of Masnan Road.
Chen Gongshu is the mayor of Shanghai and has the Shangfang sword awarded by Boss Dai. Naturally, there is no need to explain some things to Zheng Jiayuan.
Therefore, Zheng Jiayuan only knew that Chen Gongshu had a plan for Chen Miao for "Chen Miao", but he was not very clear about the specific content of the plan.
But he had seen "Zhong Guowei" appear in Chen Gongshu's garden villa, and later he learned that Zhong Guowei was the emperor of Boss Yu of Tingxue Tower. After using a lawyer, he suddenly realized.
The appearance of Zhong Guowei must be related to Chen Miao. Otherwise, Chen Gongshu would never see this "Zhong Guowei" at his location.
As for how he found Zhong Guowei, he was not very clear, but Xiao Qi made an appointment with him to meet in the black market, so he must have given him some news, otherwise it would be unreasonable.
"Brother Gong Shu, who is this Zhong Guowei? Why do you trust him so much?" Zheng Jiayuan found an opportunity and asked. In fact, he didn't understand, but he was also the No. 2 figure in Shanghai. According to the rules, he has the right to know.
"Old Zheng, don't get involved in Zhong Guowei's affairs. I have my own sense of this matter and I will explain it to you in the future." Chen Gongshu refused to answer very simply.
"Okay, I won't ask, but is Zhong Guowei a reliable person? Is it too dangerous for him to enter and exit the place where you live like this?" Zheng Jiayuan asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, this Zhong Guowei has no problem, otherwise, how could I let him come here to meet me?" Chen Gongshu promised.
"Well, then I'm relieved. Brother Gong Shu, our funds are almost over. If we don't have money, brothers, let alone work, we can't even guarantee food." Zheng Jiayuan nodded. He moved around and got some money, and finally dealt with some days. However, if the above did not allocate funds, Shanghai might fall apart at any time.
It’s okay if you have a cover-up career, but you still have a fixed income. It’s not a big problem with eating, but if you want to have action, there is no guarantee. How can you use people without money?
"It's almost done, Lao Zheng, wait for two days and we will have money, and it will be a lot of money, which is more than the 200,000 French currency we lost." Chen Gongshu's face flushed with a little excited expression.
"It's more than we lost money?" Zheng Jiayuan was shocked when he saw Chen Gongshu's excited smile, but immediately felt a little uneasy. Why didn't he expect such a good thing?
"It's not lower than this number anyway!" Chen Gongshu stretched out one hand and said with five fingers apart.
"Five hundred thousand?"
"It's almost the same. Anyway, this time, I will solve the problem of funding for at least three months or even longer in Shanghai at one time. In this way, we will have enough time to build a more secret funding channel and will not be easily discovered by No. 76."
In fact, it is not difficult for the Military Commission to provide funds to Shanghai. Small amounts of funds are entirely carried out through exchange. Although it is secret, its disadvantage is that it is relatively cumbersome, with dispersed withdrawals and not stable enough.
The combination of Xiang Xia Yanbing and Song Yunping would be difficult to be discovered if it were not for He Yuanyuan. Even before the discovery, it had been running smoothly for more than a year.
It takes time to establish such a stable funding channel, and the candidates are also extremely critical.
The best way is of course to be self-sufficient, but this is likely to cause a big end. How can the headquarters control it?
"Brother Gong Shu, I just got internal news that Chief Cao failed to assassinate Wang Tianhuan. Wang Tianhuan was only shot and injured in the calf. Now the bullet has been taken out, and it is not a big deal." Zheng Jiayuan brought Chen Gongshu a bad news.
"Where is Cao Lijun?"
"Captain Cao decided to go back to Chongqing in person to apologize to Boss Dai, but the road to Chongqing is far away. At this moment, he has been wanted by the Japanese and No. 76. I am afraid it will be difficult to leave through normal channels, so he wants to hide in the countryside for two days first, and then wait for an opportunity to leave by boat from the waterway."
"He is asking you for money, right?" Chen Gongshu asked. How could he run away without travel expenses? What's more, he's going from Shanghai to Chongqing for thousands of kilometers, and it will take at least ten days and a half months.
If you eat, take a bus, take a boat, etc., it is difficult to move without money.
"Yes, I asked me for a travel fee of 1,000 yuan, but I didn't have 1,000 yuan. I gave him all the money on me, leaving only a little change. And the house I rented will be paid the day after tomorrow. I am worried now," Zheng Jiayuan said helplessly.
"You ask the landlord to be lenient for two days. In two days, we will have money. As for Cao Lijun, since he has been hiding in the countryside, let him stay in the countryside for two more days. He will ask for travel expenses, and give them to him at that time." Chen Gongshu said that Cao Lijun is his ex at least, and he will not rebel even if he has no money. If he has money, he will naturally not be stingy with this. Spend some money to send people away and save himself trouble.
"I'm not worried about these things yet. Brother Gong Shu, I'm the only thing I'm worried about is that Wang Tianheng will completely turn to No. 76. You know, he has a very deep foundation in North China, but so far, our organizational structure in North China has not suffered any major damage. In this situation, Wang Kemin from North China and Liang Honglie from Nanjing are ready to support the Wang family. We have to suggest that Boss Dai immediately replace the people related to Wang Tianheng in various parts of North China, especially his past subordinates." Zheng Jiayuan said.
"Old Zheng, it is his own business for Wang Tianheng to surrender to the enemy. If the personnel from various agencies in the North China are replaced on a large scale, do you know what consequences will be caused? "
"That's better than being taken away by someone."
"A single move moves the whole body. Lao Zheng, what we can think of, Boss Dai, wouldn't we just need to take care of ourselves? This shouldn't be something we should worry about, so don't worry. Sometimes, if you worry too much, it may not be a good thing." Chen Gongshu said seriously, "Lao Zheng, this is my advice to you."
"Thank you, Brother Gong Shu, I understand." Zheng Jiayuan nodded slightly and sighed.
...
No. 76, Archives Office.
"Third brother, that's all I know. Brother Xiaoqi is so good. He broke one of Yuan Jie's two bodyguards in a few seconds, and the other fainted..." Wu Tianlin said with a little excited tone.
“Are there any photos?”
"Yes, third brother, you want to expose Yuan Jie's harassment of Ting Xuelou and his master's wife, which violated Yuan Xian's promise to publish the newspaper, right?" Wu Tianlin said.
"Of course, a second-generation ancestor like Yuan Jie may not take his reputation to heart, but although his son Yuan Xian is hypocritical, he still values reputation."
"Then why not blackmail Yuan Xian for a penalty?" Wu Tianlin said.
Chen Miao glanced at Wu Tianlin and blackmailed it, which was definitely contrary to the code of conduct of underground workers. But his current identity is the deputy section chief of the Archives Section of No. 76, and in the past he was also the Military Affairs Bureau of the Blue-Clothing Society. Both of these disguised identities cannot be considered good people, and to be a good person on No. 76, it is really out of place.
Besides, the target of his extortion was not a good person, he was a traitor and a traitor.
This analysis is not considered a violation of organizational discipline.
"You wanted to do this a long time ago, right?" Chen Miao asked.
"Tianlin is responsible for being able to breathe a sigh of relief for the third brother and his master's wife." Wu Tianlin smiled, obviously he had already thought about this.
"Go, don't reveal your identity." Chen Miao nodded.
"yes!"
The tiger father and the dog son, Yuan Jie, is not a little worse than the other brothers Yuan Xian. He actually took the initiative to hand over the handle to his own hands. How could it be possible if he didn't use it?
Chen Miao could also understand Yuan Jie's idea. If he could force Liang Xueqin to sign a loan agreement, then Liang Xueqin would slowly fall into the trap and be merciless step by step, and eventually he would lose both his life and money.
Yuan Jie's plot is vicious, but don't forget that Liang Xueqin is not a fool either. How could she not know the reason for beating a tiger with a tiger, especially this person who has the intention to do it.
If someone else is gone, she might consider signing a mortgage loan agreement, but Yuan Jie is absolutely impossible.
Therefore, Yuan Jie is much worse than his father Yuan Xian. He did not directly buy Tingxue Tower, but used Qian Youbing as an intermediary, which was extremely deceptive and confusing.
As for Zhong Guowei, he still needs to wait until Xiaoqi meets Zheng Jiayuan before making a judgment.
He believed that Xiaoqi would not disappoint him.
Xiaoqi made an appointment with Zheng Jiayuan to go to the black market. Xiaoqi took Chen Miao’s promissory note of 1,000 US dollars. If he went to a bank or a bank, it would be only 5,000 silver dollars at most. But if he went to an underground bank on the black market, that wouldn’t be the case.
Shanghai's finance is already quite chaotic. The official exchange rate is one set, and there is another set of exchange rate underground. Sometimes the difference is huge, but it can exist in parallel. This is not a normal economy.
Ordinary people cannot access the underground black market. It is a place where fraud is rampant. If ordinary people without certain abilities enter, there will be no bones left.
Not counting Xiaoqi and Zheng Jiayuan, they are already frequent visitors to the underground black market. Ultimate loans are rampant here, buying and killing people, and buying and selling contraband products is common. All kinds of transactions prohibited by the government can be seen here. As long as you want to buy, sellers can be found here, and there are also various intelligence. The black market is also a place that intelligence brokers like, and there are many foreigners who travel across the ocean to hunt for gold and adventure.
White Russia, which is active in the black market, has the largest number. As long as they can make money, they will do anything.
The black market is not safe, but there is no force that can dominate the black market. Everything is based on some conventional rules. Anyone who violates it will be expelled by everyone else and may never have the chance to come in again.
Moreover, Xiao Qi entered the black market, and unless the tail behind him was qualified to enter, he could only stay outside and wait for him to come out.
Although there are no guards in the black market, anyone can enter, but in some places, only people with status can enter. If not, they can only stay outside.
