Chapter Ninety-Five: Yang Hu
With Dai Yunong's approval, Geng Chaozhong's hanging heart has also let go of most of it in the past few days - since the last award ceremony, the Fuxing Society promoted Geng Chaozhong to a preparatory member of the Executive Committee of the Fuxing Society, and the relationship between him and Dai Yunong has become delicate.
Gain's current members of the Fuxing Society in the secret service, except for Dai Yunong and Zheng Jiemin, who are members of the executive committee, are already considered the number three people in the reserve committee - it is difficult to say what Qiu Kaiji and Kang Ze think. Perhaps, he wanted to plant a nail in the secret service, at least the nail that Dai Yunong thought, so that Dai Yunong could restrain himself.
With this hand, it is difficult not to make Dai Yunong jealous, so during this time, Geng Chaozhong and Dai Yunong have always been cautious in getting along.
However, now it seems that Dai Yunong is still more open-minded, and he did not share loyalty to Geng Chao because of this, on the contrary, he also expressed a rare intimacy.
Therefore, Geng Chaozhong decided not to see Qiu Kaiji before going to Shanghai this time, so as not to make Dai Yunong think that he was rebellious.
After a few days of preparation, Geng Chaozhong left Wang Jianqiu in the eighth phase to recruit new people, and Hu Kecheng, who was seriously injured, stayed behind, and took Yun Wei, Hao Kefu and Xu Qiu to embark on the train to Shanghai.
The Shanghai-Nanjing Railway is now the most advanced railway line in China, which takes only 7 hours from Nanjing to Shanghai, and is not far behind later generations.
Geng Chaozhong and his entourage sat in the box of the train, chatting and laughing while watching the scenery along the way.
"Sixth brother, what mission did we accomplish when we went to Shanghai this time?"
A few people talked and laughed for a while like ordinary passengers in the car, and only when the surroundings were quiet did Haokov ask in a low voice.
This operation is very mysterious, there is no advance arrangement, only said that it is a business trip to Shanghai, and everyone's curiosity has long been unable to hold back.
"What's the hurry, you'll know when you arrive." Geng Chaozhong said lightly.
"Sixth brother, you don't say anything, how can you prepare when you arrive?" Yun Wei also interjected beside her.
"That makes sense," Geng Chaozhong glanced at Yun Wei, then took out a stack of boxy paper from his arms, and then unfolded it and placed it on the table.
When everyone looked at it, it was a portrait of a person.
Long face, broken eyebrows, and gloomy eyes.
"Who is this?" Everyone asked curiously.
"You guess, you guess and you win." Geng Chaozhong smiled.
"This ......" several people were speechless and choked, this vast sea of people, just take a portrait and let people guess, who can guess this?
"General Counsel of the Secret Service of the Party Investigation Department, Gu Shunzhang." Geng Chaozhong gave the answer in a low voice.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's mouths opened wide.
"Sixth brother, isn't he in Nanjing? Some time ago, he also sent someone to follow Jianqiu, and we also let his men go, why are you going to Shanghai now? Yun Wei asked.
"We got a confidential tip, someone wants to take advantage of the birthday of Gu Xingxuan, the boss of the Shanghai Tang Youth Gang, to assassinate Gu Shunzhang! We are going this time to save Gu Shunzhang's life! Geng Chaozhong replied.
"Why? We, the Secret Service of the Renaissance Society, went to protect the intelligence officers of the Party Investigation Department, this is not a mouse as a bridesmaid for a cat! Haokov was speechless.
"It's the cat that is the bridesmaid for the mouse." Yun Wei corrected it beside her.
"It's all the same thing," Hao Kefu said impatiently, "Sixth brother, why should we save him?" ”
"A traitor, so important? We had to protect him personally. "Yun Wei is also a little incomprehensible.
"The above meaning, you don't have to guess, just perform the task," Geng Chaozhong said simply, "Also, this portrait is not of great reference significance, this person is good at makeup, even if he stands in front of you, he may not be able to match the number." ”
Everyone lowered their heads and pondered, no one knew what kind of medicine Geng Chaozhong was selling in the gourd.
"Okay, now I'll assign a task, after arriving in Shanghai, you will first go to the vicinity of the Gu Mansion on Foch Road in the British Concession, disguise yourself as passers-by, fruit stall owners, rickshaw drivers and other characters, and lurk around in advance.
Don't underestimate this task, Shanghai is the base camp of the Green Gang, and any stranger who comes there to beg for a living, the first step is to join the Green Gang first, otherwise, it will be difficult to move an inch.
Also, all kinds of people around Gu Mansion are all Gu Xingxuan's junior disciples, and on the day of Gu Xingxuan's birthday banquet, they will definitely come out of the nest and clear the venue in advance.
The birthday banquet is on the 15th of next month, and there are less than 20 days to go, and during this time, you must integrate into the local life as quickly as possible, at least, without making people feel abrupt. ”
......
Geng Chaozhong began to arrange tasks non-stop, everyone nodded frequently beside them, Shanghai is not as good as Nanjing, the concessions are everywhere, and all kinds of forces are intricate, even the Nanjing government must rely on the Qing Gang to achieve effective control.
"Okay, that's all for the specific tasks, go to Shanghai, and I will arrange for you to join the Youth Gang. Mixed society, not being a soldier, go there, put away your military style, be smart, don't do anything, and be arrested in the patrol room....."
.......
The train was moving very fast, and soon the train arrived in Shanghai.
After Geng Chaozhong settled everyone, he called a rickshaw and came to the vicinity of the Shanghai Municipal Government to meet the first important person on his trip, Yang Hu, director of the Shanghai Ministry of Industry and commander of the Husong garrison.
Yang Hu followed Sun Yat-sen in his early years, participated in the Xinhai Revolution and the Dharma Protection Movement, and later joined the Green Gang, and Zhang Xiaolin, Huang Jinrong, etc., and later after swearing with President Chang, he single-handedly led the "412" Qing Party in Shanghai, and was one of the most trusted people by President Chang.
Now he is not only the chief leader of the Shanghai Police Force, but also the boss of the Green Gang, and he is now a well-deserved emperor of Shanghai.
The garrison headquarters is a five-story western-style building, and after reporting in advance, the sentry standing guard at the gate quickly came down to reply and led Geng Chaozhong to the second floor of this Western-style building.
Pushing the door in, a middle-aged man in a police uniform was sitting behind a desk, and when he saw Geng Chaozhong coming in, he bowed slightly, as if he was about to stand up to greet him, Geng Chaozhong hurriedly walked a few steps, stepped forward, saluted a military salute, and said:
"Fang Tu, the leader of the sixth group of the special service of the Inferior Fuxing Society, has met Commander Yang!"
"You're Fang Tu?"
Yang Hu looked at Geng Chaozhong with a scrutinizing gaze and asked.
"It's a lowly position." Geng Chaozhong raised his head and looked at the henchman of Principal Chang in front of him, Commander Yang, who was known as the Emperor of Shanghai Soil, across the army, police, and gangs.
This person has a square face, a nose like a hanging gall, eyes like a star, a white face and no beard, and he is majestic and majestic.
"Not bad," Yang Hu bowed slightly, pointing to the chair in front of the desk, "Sit down." ”
Geng Chaozhong sat down, smiled and said:
"Commander Yang, this time I came to Shanghai on business, Deputy Director Dai told me in every possible way, saying that when I came to Shanghai, anyone could not see it, but Commander Yang absolutely couldn't see it, and specially entrusted him with a humble position, and brought a little local products to Commander Yang, and talked about his heart."
With that, he placed the suitcase in his hand on the side of his desk.
"Director Dai is polite," Yang Hu waved his hand, "Yunong is now highly respected by the chairman, and the secret service has cracked a big case in a row, which can be called in full swing, by the way, I heard that the case of the telephone bureau was solved by you?" ”
Yang Hu's sudden question made Geng Chaozhong stunned, and hurriedly said: "It's a little bit of merit made by a humble position." ”
"Yes, it's really young and promising," Yang Hu looked at Geng Chaozhong and smiled slightly, "However, you have solved this case, which makes me very embarrassed!" ”
Geng Chaozhong was stunned again, and immediately came to his senses, Zhou Chunlin's eavesdropping phone for the Japanese included a link from the Husong Garrison Command, and as for how to deal with this matter later, he really didn't know.
Could it be that because of this incident, Yang Hu was reprimanded by the principal?
"I was bent on solving the case, but I didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, it would affect Commander Yang, I really dare not take it." Geng Chaozhong looked frightened, and hurriedly bowed his head and apologized.
"Haha," Yang Hu opened his mouth and laughed, "Dai Yunong only told me about this matter, and it was not passed on, so why do you have to apologize?" Then again, I thank you so much! If you hadn't discovered this inner ghost, if something went wrong with me in the future, it would have been a big sin! ”
"I see," Geng Chaozhong's heart also relaxed, "The commander is magnanimous and ashamed of his duties. ”
"No need," Yang Hu waved his hand, "I heard Yunong say that you want to join the Green Gang this time, so you came to me?" ”
"Yes, after being humiliated, you may travel to Ninghu and Shanghai, and it will be inconvenient to act if you don't join the Green Gang, so this time I came here to worship you as a teacher under the instructions of Director Dai!" Geng Chaozhong explained his intentions.
"I've heard Yunong say about this," Yang Hu nodded, "However, since I took up an official position, it is no longer convenient for me to accept apprentices, but I can introduce you to a master, how about it?" ”
Geng Chaozhong was a little hesitant, if he changed to someone else, I am afraid that he might not be qualified to participate in Gu Xingxuan's birthday banquet.
"Haha, you don't have to worry, the master I introduced to you is not younger than me, you can rest assured!" Yang Hu laughed and stood up.
"Let's go, follow me to meet someone!"
