Chapter 58 Balance of Interests
In the next few days, Tang Cheng could no longer pay attention to his sister Tang Juan, and Ma Guixiang also detained Tang Juan by his side all day long, and if he didn't pay attention to Tang Juan and couldn't see Tang Juan, Ma Guixiang would be nervous for no reason. "Fifth brother, my mother seems to be a little wrong in the past two days, no matter where she goes, she always has to take her eldest sister with her, and my eldest sister has complained to me several times in the past two days." Tang Hu, who is honest by nature, secretly complained to Tang Cheng, after all, it doesn't feel very good to be treated as a gas bag by the eldest sister Tang Juan.
"You don't care about this, you just remember what I told you, you have to protect our mother and the two little ones. The eldest sister is an adult, and her affairs are naturally in charge of our mother. In the future, when the eldest sister complains to you again, you pretend not to understand, but it really can't work, so you can avoid her. I've been a little busy these days, and I'll tell my eldest sister when I'm free. Tang Cheng's answer made Tang Hu a little dumbfounded, it seemed that he still had to endure the days when he was angry. The matter of the eldest sister Tang Juan has basically come to an end, with her mother Ma Guixiang here, Tang Cheng knows that her sister Tang Juan can't get things done.
Another week passed, and as the investigation team gradually expanded the degree of surveillance, more and more faces and connections had appeared on Tang Cheng's blackboard, and Tang Cheng knew that it was time to report the situation to Bai Zhanshan. After receiving a call from Tang Cheng, Bai Zhanshan came quickly, but unlike the previous times, Bai Zhanshan came by car alone this time, which made Tang Cheng have some doubts in his heart. "Uncle Bai, why did you come alone?" Tang Cheng has always had no scruples, and directly asked the doubts in his heart.
"What's the matter? You're a tiger's den in Longtan! If I didn't bring a few people with me, I wouldn't dare come to you, would I? Bai Zhanshan seemed to be in a good mood, and while laughing, he deliberately reached out and knocked Tang Cheng with a chestnut blow." Take it, this is the money for the previous case, which was specially approved by the director. You can count it yourself, but don't say that the money is not right, and Lao Tzu has no money to pay you. Bai Zhanshan smiled and took out a bag of money and handed it to Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng took the cloth bag and opened it to see that it was all legal tender.
"I know that your kid is not happy, but I can't help it, what I give above is fiat currency." Seeing Tang Cheng's ugly face, Bai Zhanshan explained a few words. "Now even the government departments issue fiat currency, why aren't you happy? There is a shortage of oceans on the market, and it is said that gold and silver are nationalized, and it would be good to have fiat currency, you kid know something!" Bai Zhanshan's explanation was not listened to by Tang Cheng at all, but after slightly counting the amount of this package of fiat currency, Tang Cheng handed over the money to Heizi to collect.
"Uncle Bai, we have been staring at the matter of medicine for more than half a month, and the final result proves that my inference is completely correct." Tang Cheng didn't want to be involved in the matter of money, so he changed the topic and talked about the batch of medicines, what Tang Cheng's original inference was, Bai Zhanshan naturally knew. Knowing that this case was also related to Japanese spies, Bai Zhanshan immediately came to his senses and urged Tang Cheng to get to the point quickly.
Leading Bai Zhanshan into the main hall, Tang Cheng lifted the black cloth covering the blackboard, and a blackboard full of photos immediately appeared in Bai Zhanshan's sight. "Uncle Bai, come and see, these are two suspicious targets of Huiyuan Commercial Bank. The one on the left is called Zhao Daniu, a native of Datong, Shanxi, who came to Nanjing a year to join his relatives, because he had studied a private school for several years, and is now the second library of Huiyuan Commercial Bank, and usually lives in a commercial bank. The one on the right is called Qi Jinhai, a native of Chengde, who came to Nanjing two years ago, and is now the manager of Huiyuan Commercial Bank in charge of the trading of medicinal materials, it is said that this person has won the trust of the boss Yao Huiyuan, and has a residence in Nancheng. ”
"We locked on these two suspicious targets from the beginning, and at first we only secretly monitored and stalked this Qi Jinhai according to the usual practice, but it turned out that this person went out very frequently. Later, through this Qi Jinhai, this person was discovered, this person's name was Zhou Chaoxian, and he was a courtier of a pawnshop. Uncle Bai, you can't imagine where this pawnshop is, it's actually less than 200 meters away from our central police station. ”
The third photo on the blackboard is Noda Kojiro, who goes by the pseudonym Zhou Chaoxian, and a line drawn with colored chalk connects Zhou Chaoxian and Qi Jinhai. Below Zhou Chaoxian's photos, there are also a few that are connected to the rest of the photos, "This Zhou Chaoxian doesn't usually come out much, we have been following her for half a month, and then we found out that he has contact with these people." Saying this, Tang Cheng stretched out his hand and dotted on the other photos on the blackboard.
"We have all carefully investigated these people, and coincidentally, these people are not aborigines born in Nanjing. Among them, the earliest one who came to Nanjing was only three years, and the shortest time was only one and a half years. Among them, Zhou Cheng has the biggest problem, because this person has been in the black market all year round, especially with some arms dealers. ”
"You mean, it's possible that this Zhou Cheng is secretly hoarding arms?" Thinking of Tang Cheng's previous inference, Bai Zhanshan's inference also became bolder, but as soon as his words fell, an old policeman from the investigation team quickly came in from outside. The old policeman who walked in quickly didn't care that Bai Zhanshan was still here, he just leaned into Tang Cheng's ear and whispered quickly for a while, and Bai Zhanshan immediately noticed that Tang Cheng's expression had changed a lot.
"Uncle Bai, here comes the answer you want, my people just followed this Zhou Cheng and found that this person has obtained a batch of arms from the black market, and some people in the army are involved." Tang Cheng's words made Bai Zhanshan stand up from his chair with a sigh. The arms case involves people in the military, which is undoubtedly a headache, but the Military Intelligence Investigation Department can meddle in military affairs, and what Bai Zhanshan wants now is just to report this matter to the director immediately.
Seeing through what Bai Zhanshan was thinking at the moment, Tang Cheng said hurriedly, "Uncle Bai, it's better for you to go back and tell your superiors about the case first, and my side will improve the list as soon as possible, and when it comes to the army, let's be careful." Bai Zhanshan knew that Tang Cheng's suggestion was the best solution at this moment, as for the follow-up, it depended on the meaning of the above.
Seeing Bai Zhanshan leave in a hurry, Tang Cheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately called the old horse who rushed back to report the news. "Lao Ma, you take another group of people to stare at that Zhou Chaoxian, the matter of arms and medicine is too deep, it is not for us to reach out, and it is good that we can finally meddle in the affairs of the pawnshop." Tell everyone to keep their eyes open, and how much they can bag afterwards depends on everyone's ability. Tang Cheng's words were vague, but Lao Ma already understood the meaning of Tang Cheng's words, and then nodded and left quickly.
Bai Zhanshan walked fast, and soon after the old horse left with a group of talents, Bai Zhanshan went and returned. This time, Bai Zhanshan no longer came alone, he also brought more than a dozen cronies. "Xiao Wu, the director means to close the net in advance, especially this Zhou Cheng, if this batch of arms flows out, the things involved may be able to make big waves." Just looking at Bai Zhanshan's expression at the moment, Tang Cheng could already guess that the Military Intelligence Department was also a headache about this matter.
"It's okay to report the number, it's okay to arrest people, and it's okay to search for arms, but before we act, we'd better set our priorities first." Tang Cheng knew that the more this kind of thing was, the more he had to stabilize his breath, so after Bai Zhanshan made his statement, he did not rush to follow the restlessness, but calmly let Bai Zhanshan into the front hall. "Uncle Bai, there are too many targets involved in this case, if you start to arrest people, you must make a big move, otherwise there may be fish that slip through the net."
"So what do you say?" Bai Zhanshan had obviously heard the meaning of Tang Cheng's words, but he still pretended to be confused, and Tang Cheng, who was angry, pouted his teeth, and the roots of his teeth itched vigorously.
"Uncle Bai, now is not the time to think about other things, if you want to end this case cleanly, you must rely on the strength of other action teams. With just our manpower, I'm afraid it's not enough to see at all, after all, there are too many targets that need to be captured. Especially that Huiyuan Commercial Bank, it needs a weighty person like you to come forward, medicine is as important as munitions, the problem is, Uncle Bai, you can't do both. Tang Cheng was in no mood to take care of Bai Zhanshan, so he simply explained his words directly.
"I personally believe that only fast, accurate and ruthless actions can be appreciated and rewarded by the top. Rather than procrastination in the operation due to lack of manpower, it is better to allocate some opportunities to share the profits with other action teams. Uncle Bai, eating alone alone will cause envy, jealousy and hatred, if it's just envy and jealousy, forget it, if it evolves to the point of hate, Uncle Bai, you just wait for your own people to stab you in the back. ”
Tang Cheng's words made Bai Zhanshan not speak for a long time, he was secretly weighing Tang Cheng's suggestion in his heart at the moment, and now thinking back to those conversations in the director's office, it seemed that the director's words also had this meaning. "You kid, you don't look very old, but when you do things, you look like an old fritter, I really don't know how your father taught you before." I have to say that Tang Cheng's suggestion moved Bai Zhanshan, as long as he can hold the medicine and arms in his hands, the biggest credit is still his own.
"Uncle Bai, you must come forward from Huiyuan Commercial Bank, Zhou Cheng has my people watching there, and when you finish arresting people in Huiyuan Commercial Bank, you can rush to Zhou Cheng's side immediately. A total of three people are arrested, your people are completely enough, if you are not too troublesome, you can also do it on both sides, and my people will fully cooperate. I can also hand over the other goals, but this Zhou Chaoxian must be handed over to me. Among these targets that we have been tracking for most of the month, this Zhou Chaoxian is the most difficult to get, and I have to catch him with my own hands to relieve my hatred. ”
