Chapter 57: The Great Net
The answer is obvious. In addition, Li Fengzhu also thought of Sakamoto Hayashi Zhi of Nozaki Mansion, and then thought of Tang Shubai, who had a good relationship with Sakamoto Hayashi Zhi, with the two people as the center, he could connect the secret agency, the Japanese consulate, and the daily newspaper at the same time. In addition, Jiang Yiyao's discovery - "Jinmen Daily News" local port news was originally not within the scope of the Japanese concession, and the sudden concern about the abandonment of relatives immediately stimulated the number of subscriptions. The most subtle thing is that Xu Xinqi knows all this, but he never says it to her.
Li Fengzhu waited to see what would happen next, if Xu Xinqi was still conservative about the clues, then she would have to prepare for it with another hand.
"The court is going to be held tomorrow, and this can only be investigated after the verdict is announced. β
This answer made Li Fengzhu's heart feel sullen, and he couldn't help but get up and go to the window to take a breath.
There was a conversation between the two behind him, and Xu Xinqi asked Chen Yanping to talk specifically about the situation in the Ma Mansion.
Among the messages that Chen Yanping brought back, there was one that was completely unexpected.
It was in the process of Ma Ren's two trips to Tianjin to "recognize his son" that a strange letter appeared. The sender's name is Ma Fa, and he is a big household in Fengrun, Hebei. He had a daughter under his knees, married to a man named Zhang Tingge. This person used to be the secretary general of the Secretariat of the State Council of the Beiyang Government, and now he is in charge of salt affairs in Jinmen, and holds the monopoly of official salt in seven counties of Jingdong. Salt has been a fat mess since ancient times, and those who are not both capable and have a background don't even want to dip meat foam, let alone the official salt monopoly. The family had no contact with Ma Shouhua, but suddenly wrote a letter. The letter took the liberty of mentioning Ma Ren's loss of his son, and attached a photo of Ma Ren, and put on a posture to beat Ma Shouhua, so that he could remember the appearance of this "biological father". Although there is no explicit statement between the lines, the intention of talking about filial piety and humanity at length can be said to be very obvious.
Ma Shouhua was naturally angry with this letter, but because of the reality of being bullied by dogs in Pingyang, he still respectfully replied to a letter, explaining that he had talked to Ma Ren in person, and the matter was completely a misunderstanding, and Ma Ren also admitted that he had found the wrong person. As for the photo, it was returned with the letter.
The truth is almost revealed, but after the clouds are cleared, what appears in front of me is a vast net.
Li Fengzhu clenched his fists tightly, slowly let go of his three hands and said: "Spy, squire, high-ranking official! It is not difficult to find the mastermind who dismissed the secret trial of the case of abandoning relatives, this person has two major characteristics, first, he does not support anti-Japanese resistance, and secondly, he is likely to have a close relationship with Zhang Tingge, who runs the salt business. β
Chen Yanping nodded and added: "Ma Shouhua has enough suspicions to easily reveal that Ma Ren is behind the help of the Japanese. He also had a letter that was enough to prove that the high-ranking officials in power in Jinmen might be accomplices. But he will not present the evidence in court. He was very afraid, but he was by no means afraid of some high-ranking and powerful person who covered the sky with one hand, he was afraid that he would not have the opportunity to return to the battlefield to kill the enemy. β
Xu Xinqi crossed his arms and said: "Judging from the information we have, even if we don't fight these doubts, we can still win." β
Chen Yanping spread his hands in embarrassment: "But the difficulty in front of us is how to write this report." β
"They went to us and told us a lot of exclusive information, but they didn't want us to announce it. Xu Xinqi touched the stubble on his chin and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
There are two kinds of interviews with people: the big people are silent about many issues, repeatedly hinting and even threatening to warn the newspaper not to go beyond their own will, and the other is the small people, who have a lot of grievances and resentments in their hearts, and repeatedly tell them to show the fact that they are being oppressed. Ma Shouhua is in the middle of the contradictory zone, fading the aura of a big man and living the life of a small person, telling the injustice and harassment he has suffered as it is, but never allowing reporters to show his grievances completely and thoroughly.
But this problem was put in front of Li Fengzhu, but it was easily solved: "I think General Ma's intention is not to give an explanation to the public. His ultimate hope is that history will give him an explanation!"
Although Li Fengzhu can't fiddle with guns, he doesn't know anything military. But she also wants to return to the black land, and she fully understands that in fact, the brave are often afraid, but this does not affect their majestic image. A truly fearless hero may be very calculating about death, and if he does not maximize the amount of victory, then sacrifice is not only meaningless, but even a little stupid.
This kind of realization cannot be attained by intelligence, and it can never be born out of thin air without experience. Therefore, Li Fengzhu is not contemptuous of others not understanding, nor is he proud of his own understanding, but only sincerely suggested to Chen Yanping: "You should write down the most naked truth behind the incident, but the public press release should be abruptly stopped before the truth is about to come out." Otherwise, the strong social effect will push the Japanese spies to the extreme, which is tantamount to pushing the victims into a desperate situation. No matter what day we wait, in short, I think there will be a day when there will be no concession in Jinmen and even in the whole country, and there will be no iron hooves of the invaders, and then we will be able to make all this public and return General Ma's innocence!"
Chen Yanping listened with his head down, raised his eyes to look at Xu Xinqi, and saw that he was holding a gesture of approval, so he had the confidence to act. Then he went deeper and put forward what he saw and felt: "Our actions today are very smooth, it is like divine help. At least half of the police force in the Ma Mansion comes from the personal instructions of the provincial chairman, but they are only responsible for security, but they do not ask him about things. My understanding is that these police forces have been used for a long time to protect a frustrated general who has no real job, and they have to bear a lot of criticism. The greatest help they can do is to turn a blind eye to actions like today's, and they have no ability to facilitate them. So, in less than 24 hours, who is responsible for investigating in detail the personnel who have entered and exited the Ma Mansion for legitimate reasons, who is responsible for directing the coal transporters and scavengers to hide when they should be hiding, working when they should work, and who is responsible for keeping an eye on us when we are moving? It is still very difficult to do this with only four or five loyal retinues? What's more, Du Longhai and Yu Xunruo, two of the several personal entourages who have always accompanied General Ma, and a small half of the personnel has to be removed. So, will there be other forces, such as ...... who actively promote the cause of resistance against Japan?"
Xu Xinqi, who was quick-witted, lowered his head and hurriedly sorted out the pile of physical evidence on the table.
Li Fengzhu laughed, hooked the sack on the ground with his toes, and rummaged through it when he got closer.
Journalism is almost the only source of income they can rely on, and they know the taboos of the press, and some questions are just guessed and will never be spoken. But Chen Yanping is also a student at the same time, and his part-time job has not completely changed his innocent side. Seeing that neither of them could talk, he thought that he didn't understand much, but he continued: "Yan'an?"
"Nothing else, let's go back and get busy. β
Xu Xinqi's deafness made Chen Yanping feel uneasy, and chased him outside the door to ask Li Fengzhu: "Is my analysis wrong?"
Li Fengzhu held the book, patted his left hand with the spine of the book, thought for a long time, smiled helplessly, and said, "It's really not right, we will refute it directly." Young manβ" he said, stepping forward, bowing his head and solemnly reminding him, "an inappropriate curiosity will invite unwarranted disaster." You can continue to get to the bottom of things, if you think people like General Ma and the Discipline Master are ...... Damn!"
When it came to this, Chen Yanping had no reason to insist on it, and nodded and went back to writing.
Li Fengzhu looked at his back with a smile, and felt sad for the little cleverness he had shown.
Not far away, two colleagues talked to each other and approached her seat: "There are many deviations in the use of words, especially in the special nouns related to economics. You see, I only changed two pages to find so many mistakes. β
"What can I do about this? Because the days are urgent, it is inevitable that the selection of candidates will be sloppy. This translation will not only be published in the newspaper, but will also be used at the North China Economic Exchange Conference next week. If the translation is good, our society can grow a lot of face in front of the financial director, and if the translation is not good, then it will be ......"
"There is always a way to remedy it. At this time, one of them clasped the table, "Mi Sili, do you think it is convenient for Fang Fang to help translate an English version?"
Hearing this, Li Fengzhu's eyes brightened, and he looked up in surprise with the corners of his lips: "It's Mr. Lu! Then he smiled at a middle-aged man behind him with tortoiseshell eyes on the bridge of his nose, "Good afternoon, Mr. Wei." β
These two people, one author and one editor, held up almost the entire economic edition of Ta Kung Pao.
Lu Naiwen was obviously a little anxious, and flipped through a few pages of the manuscript for Li Fengzhu to roughly browse first, and said: "The content is a little more, but because it is a little tolerance sent by the Finance Bureau, the remuneration is still very generous, I hope you can consider it." β
Li Fengzhu is trying to find a way to make a quick buck, even if there are harsh requirements, she will not hesitate to accept: "Yes, you can ......"
Lu Naiwen and Mr. Wei looked at each other, both smiled with relief, and then said: "If you really don't understand the unpopular professional terms, you can also put them aside first." Translate the skeleton of the whole text first, so that it will be much easier for me. If I don't have to speak at this exchange meeting, I can translate the whole text in time, but I still have a ...... speech" After speaking, Lu Naiwen clapped his hands a few times, showing a difficult appearance.
Seeing him so worried, Li Fengzhu asked, "When do you want it?"
Mr. Wei stretched out two fingers, put them in front of his face and shook them: "Just two days, it must be done in two days!"
Tomorrow is the day of the trial of Ma Shouhua's countersuit. If the rhythm of the abandonment case continues, the trial in the morning, the writing in the afternoon, and the finalization in the evening, then she only has one day to take over the work, and it seems a little urgent to stay all night. But on the other hand, during this period, when did she be able to sleep peacefully at night? She always had insomnia, so she was naturally willing to take this job.
