Chapter 517: Black Market Tycoon

At one o'clock in the afternoon of November 1, Asano, who was actually in charge of the operation, reported to Ni Xin with one click: "Director Ni, I have set up two bases for reselling Western medicine and three for reselling gold, and I have made advertisements in the "Declaration" and two other newspapers and radio stations for several days, and many people have come. The people involved in the operation have identified several suspects and sent people to follow them, but there are no further gains. ”

"It's urgent. Asano-kun, one of the purposes of this operation is to screen Zhang Zhan again, you don't exclude him from the action, of course, you can't let him have a chance, you must control the proportions of this. ”

"Yes, don't worry. After getting along these days, Zhang Zhan is still working hard. By the way, Director Ni, even if these tracked targets are not military commanders, can you hand them over to General Ono's subordinates to dispose of? The resale of gold and Western medicine violated the Imperial Army's "Wartime Economic Control Measures". ”

"Our purpose is to fish out important members of the Shanghai branch of the military command, and most of these black market businesses are to support their families, and there is no need to make trouble."

Asano disagreed, but could only answer "yes".

Ni Xin said: "The occupational disease of agents is to be cautious, and pay attention to those customers who come to the first time and have no deals, but ask a lot of questions, and then visit for the second time. Don't judge by the amount of the transaction alone, of course I said that the transaction volume of the military commanders will not be a small number, but will they be eager to show the real bottom of the first transaction - come in! ”

Song Ningsheng, one of the leaders of the action team who participated in the operation, came in and reported: "Director Ni and Asano-kun have discovered a very suspicious target: this person went to our so-called company on the second floor of the Whampoa Hotel yesterday morning, saying that he wanted to buy gold. Our people disguised as staff members annoyed him and didn't make him a priority target. I only did the registration, and I saw this message during my routine inspection in the evening. ”

Asano interjected excitedly: "Director Ni's judgment is really admired by his subordinates. And then what happened? Did you go again today? Go on. ”

Ni Xin didn't say a word, why did Asano come from such flattery? Song Ningsheng, who had no head and no brains to listen, was confused. He didn't dare to ask, and continued: "Yes, Asano-kun, how did you guess it? At eleven o'clock in the afternoon, the man came again, and it happened that I was there. That person has been asking for a price, because there are still other guests coming, and our people can only deal with it without a match. The man stayed for an hour, and when he took his leave, he said that he had exchanged gold ornaments for fiat currency. Director Ni once advised to be extra careful with guests who use fiat currency. So I specially sent him to the door of the hotel, and when we parted, I quoted a price that was thirty percent higher than the recognized price on the market, thinking that he would have to bargain, but who knew that he agreed, just asked how many gold products we had in our hands. ”

Ni Xin asked, "Did you send someone to follow you?" ”

"Nope."

Asano was anxious: "Why don't you send someone to follow you?" Song Ningsheng, you are dereliction of duty! ”

Ni Xin waved his hand to stop: "Asano-kun, don't be impatient, let Team Leader Song continue." ”

"Yes, that's because he asked us how much gold we had when he left. I told him that he had absolutely enough money in his hand to redeem it, and even if it wasn't enough, he could transfer it from other peers. The man claimed to be surnamed Rong, and said that he wanted to exchange three hundred little oxen for the first time. ”

Three hundred fifty-gram cattle is not a small number, Asano was even more anxious, and couldn't help but say: "This is the key object of suspicion!" And I don't care about the price, it's just the amount of the first transaction, Team Leader Song, you ......"

Ni Xin raised his voice and shouted, "Asano-kun! ”

Asano had to shut up with a button, and Ni Xin said again: "Team Leader Song, you said yours." ”

"I was in charge of two points, and I happened to patrol that stronghold, there were originally four people there, two of them on a tracking mission, and I was going to order other subordinates on standby on the periphery to follow them, and I was worried that those people were newly recruited novices and inexperienced. Moreover, he and I made an appointment to come back at seven o'clock this evening, and made an appointment to see the fineness of the gold jewelry at the café on the first floor of the hotel and discuss the specific details. So the subordinates simply decided to give up tracking. ”

Ni Xin nodded and said, "It's not wrong for you to deal with it like this. ”

Song Ningsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Asano hurriedly said: "Director Ni, should we arrange manpower and round up people?" ”

Ni Xin served: "Asano-kun, what's the hurry?" This time it is definitely not a big shot, it may not be the first time that a military commander has done such a thing, Zhou Chengbin, Zhang Chi and others will not come forward. With such a lot of effort to capture only one or two small people, can you be satisfied? The most difficult thing now is how to design Zhou Chengbin to appear! At the very least, it must be a person of Zhang Chi's status, so that I will not be in vain to set up this bureau. Team Leader Song, you have been to Chongqing, Liu Zezhi is a member of the military command, they will definitely have your information. Are you sure you haven't seen the person who appeared today? ”

Song Ningsheng replied with certainty: "My subordinates have never seen this person before, nor have I seen his photo." ”

Ni Xin ordered: "Then you can't be unguarded, the little people haven't seen your photos, and the big people may not have any." Well, Asano-kun, tell the telecommunications office and order them to send someone – this man must have never met with the military commander – to install a monitor at the appointed meeting place. I remind you: the installation work should not be known to the hotel. I'm worried that the military commander will have people staying around the hotel to watch for safety. Team Leader Song, I will send you a person to participate in the meeting at night, and you will say that he is your boss. I'll call him, and in half an hour I should be able to come and explain the situation to him carefully. ”

Asano replied with one click: "Yes, the subordinates will arrange it." Director Ni, don't you need to follow people after the meeting? ”

"There's no need for that."

"If the price cannot be negotiated, or if the people who come see the flaw, cancel the transaction, and never come again, wouldn't it be good to have the opportunity to arrest the anti-Japanese bandits of the military command?"

"I'd rather let a little guy go than let my opponent find out that someone is following."

At two o'clock, Ni Xinming Kawasaki Tetsuya called Song Ningsheng and Asano and introduced: "This is Mr. Yu Siwen, General Ono was transferred from Manchukuo to serve as the captain of the general's special team. There is still time, so let's have an operational coordination meeting. ”

Yu Siwen is very young, around thirty years old, and his appearance is also very weak. He smiled and only said: "When you first come to Shanghai, please take care of me." ”

Song Ningsheng introduced the situation, and Yu Siwen listened carefully, occasionally interjecting to ask a word or two. Finally, he said: "I understand, please instruct Director Ni." ”

Ni Xin seemed to be an old acquaintance with Yu Siwen, and replied very familiarly: "You are in charge of the meeting, and Team Leader Song assists." I have ordered Zhang Zhan's Administration Section to prepare the gold ornaments and bars required for the meeting. Siwen, after the meeting, you will look at it, and if you still need anything, just bring it up. ”

Yu Siwen smiled: "You are the most thoughtful, so do you still need me to look at it?" Okay, I'll check it out after the meeting. Director Ni, you just said that the purpose is to bring out the boss behind the people to meet, right? ”

"Yes."

"Are you sure the huge amount of money needed to exchange this gold will be in the hands of the person you want to trap?"

Ni Xin replied: "This is very likely, if they are agents of the military command, the owners of the funds are the two people that General Ono and I will want to get as soon as possible."

"So do you think this person will be in the base of the military command, or in Shanghai?"

Ni Xin replied: "One of these two people should be in Shanghai, and more than eighty percent of the possible funds are also in Shanghai." ”

"If your bureau arranges in advance and goes all out, can you follow it without the other party noticing?"

"Of course you can, Team Leader Song gave up tracking before because he didn't have enough people at hand, and the quality of the people who could be used at that time was not high."

Yu Siwen nodded and said, "According to common sense, that person will not show up easily, unless he ......"

Yu Siwen said his plan, and Asano secretly said that this person's ability is not bad. Ni Xinlian nodded: "Siwen, you're right, time is the key, it's up to you this time." ”

"I'll leave the matter of the meeting to me, and I'll have to ask Director Ni for your subordinates."

At seven o'clock in the evening, Song Ningsheng accompanied Yu Siwen, who was wearing a gray-blue Gambi Gong gown, out of the room where the company was located, and came to the tea house on the first floor of the hotel. Song Ningsheng beckoned, and Lin Shirong walked over.

Song Ningsheng asked, "Mr. Rong, this is our boss Yu." Boss, this is Mr. Rong that I told you about. Mr. Yung, what do you drink? ”

Lin Shirong glanced at Yu Siwen and replied, "Whatever." ”

"Then come to the pot Tieguanyin, boss, what do you see?"

Yu Siwen nodded indispensably. Song Ningsheng called the waiter, ordered a pot of Tieguanyin, and asked for two refreshments.

Lin Shirong asked, "Mr. Song, did you bring the sample?" ”

"Brought, 30% of the goods you want will be paid for with the existing gold ornaments in our hands, and the other 70% will be paid by the boss with 1,000 gold bars after the price is negotiated." Song Ningsheng said as he handed over a small brocade box.

Lin Shirong took it and opened it, and inside were four gold ornaments and a gold bar.

Yu Siwen waved his hand and said, "Xiao Song, you can get busy, I will talk to Mr. Rong alone." ”

Although Yu Siwen's words were peaceful, there was a majesty that could not be disobeyed, Song Ningsheng nodded, said "unaccompanied" and left the tea house.

Yu Siwen took a sip of tea and said, "Xiao Song told me the price you promised, to be honest, I am very satisfied." However, the most important thing in this large business is not the price, but the safety. Otherwise, Mr. Yung would not have needed to come to the temptation several times. ”

Lin Shirong closed the brocade box in his hand, put it on the coffee table, and nodded: "Boss Yu is really fast-talking, it's true." ”

Yu Siwen said again: "Your concerns are also my concerns. I have an idea, please Mr. Yung correct. ”

"Boss Yu, please speak."

"A lot of times leaks are because of time. The price is as Mr. Rong said, and I have only one request: this business must be concluded at 12 o'clock at midnight today, and the location is up to you, as long as it is in the map of Shanghai, that place can be. We only have three brothers involved in the transaction, and you cannot participate in the transaction more than three people. ”

Lin Shirong's heart said three brothers? Could it be that this person is the three brothers of the Huang family, who are famous in the black market in Shanghai? The self-proclaimed surname is a pseudonym, isn't it also a self-proclaimed surname Rong? It is not impossible to make a deal at midnight and choose the location by yourself. Just don't know if there are any traps in it? And it's not something he can call the shots.

Seeing that he was hesitant, Yu Siwen handed over a note with a phone number written on it and said: "It's half past seven, you can call this number before nine o'clock, and the contemptible person is waiting by the phone, telling us the location of the transaction, and our brother will definitely arrive at twelve o'clock." If no call is received from Mr. Yung before nine o'clock, the deal is cancelled. ”

Yu Siwen had already gotten up and was about to leave, but Lin Shirong had to say, "Okay, I'll go back and discuss with our boss." ”

Yu Siwen stretched out his hand: "I hope Mr. Rong has the fate to make this deal." ”

The two shook hands and said goodbye.
