Chapter 0280: Xuanyuan Palace

"It can't be said that the Japanese mole must have something to do with the old drunkard, but at least there is a big suspicion!" Lin Jiangbei nodded and said, "Mr. George, do you know anything about this old drunkard in other aspects?" ”

"No," Robert George said, spreading his hands, "that's pretty much all I know about him!" ”

"Alright then, Mr. George, thank you for your help. In the future, if I have any other information to know from you, I will invite you over through the cold shopkeeper. I hope you don't say no when the time comes. Seeing this, Lin Jiangbei also knew that he couldn't learn more about Robert George, so he said to him.

"No problem, as long as you are willing to pay the money happily, no matter how much I have to do at the Consulate General, I will definitely find time to come over!" Robert George said with a laugh.

Lin Jiangbei knew that Robert George was worried that he would be in debt. So he got up and went to the next door to call Zhang Shixue over, and asked Zhang Shixue to pay eight small yellow croakers for him first.

Hearing Lin Jiangbei say that he would take out eight small yellow croakers as intelligence fees to pay Robert George, Zhang Shixue also secretly sighed in his heart that Lin Jiangbei was really willing to spend his money.

However, Lin Jiangbei, as the person in charge of the specific investigation and handling of this case designated by Duan Yinong, is willing to pay such a high fee to Robert George, and Zhang Shixue naturally has no opinion.

"Mr. George," said Zhang Shixue to Robert George, "I only have two small yellow croakers on my cabinet now. The remaining six small yellow croakers, I converted them into fiat currency, how about writing a check to pay you? ”

At this time, the fiat currency had just been issued, and it was directly pegged to the US dollar and the British pound. As long as you get the fiat currency banknotes, you can go directly to the designated bank to exchange them for US dollars, which is no different from taking the small yellow croaker directly.

"Shopkeeper Leng, then you can directly convert all the eight small yellow croakers into fiat currency for me and write them into checks for me, and I won't take the other two small yellow croakers." Robert George said, waving his hand.

So Zhang Shixue converted the price of Shanghai small yellow croaker, wrote a check of 800 yuan in legal currency and handed it to Robert George, asked him to take it to the bank to exchange it directly, and then took a can of oolong tea as a return gift and gave it to Robert George, in order to show the friendship between friends.

After Robert George picked up the check, carried the tea, and left happily. Zhang Shixue then pulled Lin Jiangbei back to the room and asked Lin Jiangbei: "Jiangbei, how is it, have you found any useful clues here with Robert George?" ”

Lin Jiangbei introduced the situation to Zhang Shixue in detail, and finally said: "Secretary Zhang, at present, it seems that the Belarusian tailor named Rodyodorov Lionovsky is the most suspicious. ”

"But Robert George also knows very little about this situation of Rotyodov Leonovsky. If you look at the Shanghai region, is there a way to check the situation of this Rotyodov Lionovsky? ”

"This question shouldn't be difficult!" Zhang Shixue said, "I have a friend who is the vice president of the Shanghai Suit Merchants Association, and since this Rodyodorov Lionovsky is a well-known tailor, my friend should know about it!" I'll call you right now and ask! ”

As he spoke, Zhang Shixue sat down behind the desk, opened the drawer, took out his phone number book again, found a number, and then dialed it.

"What, Rotyodov Leonovsky, a Belarusian tailor? I don't think I've heard the name? What, nicknamed the old drunkard? Oh, it's him! The vice-president replied on the phone, "Of course I've heard of this Belarusian tailor, but I don't know much about him." Because the Belarusian tailors in the French Concession and the Public Concession were not at all willing to join our Shanghai Suit Merchants Association. We can't do anything about these borscht! ”

At that time, the Shanghainese called Belarus a borscht, because most of these people fled from the Soviet Union, and most of them were economically poor, engaged in miscellaneous work such as janitorial sweeping, sweeping the floor and shining shoes in the public concession and the French concession, and many of them begged directly on the streets.

"President Huang," Zhang Shixue said, "is there anyone who knows more about this Belarusian tailor?" I have an important guest of Citigroup here, and he recognizes the craft of this old drunkard, and he has to ask me to help him, this old drunkard. President Huang, you must do your brother this favor! ”

"Is that so?" Vice President Huang muttered on the phone, and then said, "Shopkeeper Leng, why don't you go to the Xuanyuan Hall at No. 89 Nipi Lane to have a look." Before our Shanghai Suit Merchants Association was established, it was the location of the old Red Gang tailor's guild in Shanghai, also known as 'Shangyi Yangguang Garment Industry Office Xuanyuan Palace', and later after the establishment of our Shanghai Suit Merchants Association, the original old guild gradually declined. ”

"Different from our current Shanghai Suit Merchants Association, the original Shangyi Yangguang Garment Industry Office Xuanyuan Hall was very powerful, at that time, even foreign tailors in the French Concession and the Public Concession had to join the Xuanyuan Hall of the Shangyi Yangguang Garment Industry Office, otherwise these foreign tailors would not be able to get the fabric."

"When our Shanghai Suit Merchants Association was established, these foreign tailors gradually became bigger, and they could directly get clothing fabrics without going through the industry association, so they no longer chose to join our newly established trade association."

"Shangyi Yangguang Garment Industry Office Xuanyuan Palace?" Zhang Shixue frowned and said, "I don't know the people inside, I went to inquire, will people tell me?" President Huang, help people to the end, and send the Buddha to the west. Can you help me and ask the people in the Xuanyuan Hall of the Yangguang Garment Industry Office in Shangyi, okay? ”

"Shopkeeper Leng, when our Shanghai Suit Merchants Association was established, it was a business to rob the Xuanyuan Palace, so I can't help this matter!" When Vice President Huang said this, he was afraid that Zhang Shixue would be entangled again, so he hung up the phone directly.

Zhang Shixue listened to the busy sound on the phone, shook his head helplessly, and then said to Lin Jiangbei: "Jiangbei, this President Huang is unwilling to help, but we are not without gains. President Huang told us that there should be someone in the Xuanyuan Hall in Nipi Lane who knows about the situation of the old drunkard. ”

"Where is the nitrate alley?" Although Lin Jiangbei is familiar with the main roads in Shanghai, he has no concept of small alleys such as Nipi Lane.

"It's near the City God Temple, not far from me." Zhang Shixue said, "Why don't I accompany you to the Xuanyuan Hall in Nipi Lane to inquire." ”

"Secretary Zhang, this is not necessary. Now that I know the exact address, I think I'll be able to get there and find out what the old drunkard is doing. Lin Jiangbei waved his hand and rejected Zhang Shixue, "I'll go over and have a look first, and if the people there don't want to tell me, I'll come back and find a way!" ”
