Zeng John didn't have the heart to pay attention to Qi Qingshan's curiosity about himself, he was more concerned about Qi Qingshan's purpose for coming to him, so he said directly as soon as he was sure that it was safe:

"Chief Qi, I don't know if you came to me in person this time, is there something wrong?"

When Qi Qingshan heard this, he also understood the importance of getting down to business, so he hurriedly stopped his thoughts and said directly:

"I wonder if you know anything about the situation of the Portuguese garrison in Haojiang?"

When John Zeng heard this, he turned his head to look at Qi Qingshan in some surprise, not understanding what the other party meant, but he understood the relationship between the two sides, and there was no need to cover up some things too much.

Nodding his head, he said:

"We have some understanding, the number of garrisons, the location of the barracks, the configuration of firepower, and the key points of defense, all of which we have investigated."

As soon as he heard this, Qi Qingshan remembered that their operation this time was not a military operation, and what the other party had collected must be some military intelligence, and this information was not what he needed this time.

So, shaking his head, he said:

"I'm not talking about these situations, we don't want to go to war with them, we don't need this information, what I want to know is the situation of some of the main officers on the other side, such as their names, personalities, home addresses, social relations, hobbies, economic conditions, etc."

Hearing this, John Zeng frowned slightly, and he couldn't understand what the other party was trying to do?

"We do have this information, but it's not very detailed, I don't know what you need to do with it, and I'm not sure if it can help you."

As soon as Qi Qingshan heard John Zeng's words, he understood that the other party was indirectly asking himself about the purpose of needing this information. He also knew in his heart that Fang Lang asked him to ask them, so he didn't think about hiding his purpose from the other party, so he smiled and said directly:

"We want to open up a channel for goods from Haojiang to the mainland, and once the blockade by the Americans begins, we are worried that we will not be able to rely on the port city alone.

Therefore, to prepare to open up the Haojiang River as a backup channel, you will need to arrange the reception work in the mainland at that time. ”

John Zeng was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Qi Qingshan with some puzzlement:

"What do you mean by the American blockade? The Americans want to blockade the interior? ”

Seeing this, Qi Qingshan understood that Zeng John still didn't know about this information. However, if you think about it, you can understand that such important information is definitely not told by anyone in the mainland.

If he hadn't been the boss's aide-de-camp, he wouldn't have known this information at all. I secretly blamed myself in my heart, I shouldn't say anything, although I knew that the other party was my own person, but since the other party's superiors didn't let the other party know, it means that this is not the information that the other party should know.

coughed lightly with a little embarrassment, picked up a piece of roast goose and put it into his mouth, slightly humorous:

"I can't say that, but if you want to know, ask your superiors. If they think you can know, they'll tell you. ”

Hearing this, John Zeng was also immediately alert, knowing that he had almost made a mistake. Comrade Gong himself had already said that if there was any information that needed to be transmitted through himself, he would only need to pass it on, and he could not listen to it.

This time, because the other party suddenly found him and asked for help, he relaxed a little, forgot his duties as an intelligence officer, and almost made a mistake of principle.

"Excuse me! It was my fault, I almost made a mistake of principle, and I will review it with my superiors when I go back.

I'll relay your needs to my superiors right away, and if the results are available, I'll deliver them to The Peninsula tonight. ”

His reaction made Qi Qingshan even more embarrassed, and waved his hand again and again:

"Don't mind, I don't mean anything else!"

John Zeng naturally understood what Qi Qingshan meant, smiled and waved his hand:

"I understand! I'm not angry. Rather, I really shouldn't ask questions, it's a big no-no in our business! ”

Qi Qingshan saw that the other party didn't seem to be angry, and he also breathed a sigh of relief. However, as for the information of the Portuguese officers stationed in Haojiang, he did not feel that there was anything to hide.

"As far as we know, your side is very close to Haojiang, and the personnel exchanges are also very close. It would be better if anyone knew the handle of the Portuguese officers stationed in Haojiang, or the private information. ”

As soon as he heard Qi Qingshan mention asking for the other party's handle, Zeng John understood that they didn't want each other's lives, but wanted to get the other party to be used by them.

But although he is an intelligence officer, he is just an ordinary low-level police officer, and there is a lot of information, which he has not been able to access for the time being.

However, Qi Qingshan's words gave him a wake-up call. The distance between the port city and the Haojiang River is very close, and many locals like to cross the sea to play a few games, so there are really many people who have close contacts with the other side, especially some gang members.

And their Gangcheng police need to be in contact with gang members frequently, so after hearing Qi Qingshan's words, he immediately remembered that many gang bosses have visited him in the past few days.

And one of the gangs, that is, to organize people in the port city, sent to Haojiang to travel, they seem to have a branch in Haojiang, to say that among the people in the port city, the person who knows Haojiang the most should be them.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and his fingers holding Kuaizi couldn't help but tighten.

"If you want to talk about people who have close contacts with Haojiang, I really know a few here. However, they are not our people, they are gang members, and it may be difficult to keep the information obtained from them confidential? ”

Hearing this, Qi Qingshan couldn't help but stop the fast man who was picking up vegetables, looked at John Zeng and said:

"Oh! Can they know anything more subtle? ”

At this time, John Zeng simply put down the fast son in his hand and said seriously:

"I don't know if they know any secret information, but they have a way to send contraband ashore and won't be investigated."

As soon as he heard this, Qi Qingshan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said:

"In this way, they have opened up the relationship with Haojiang! I don't know if it's inconvenient for me to meet them. ”

"It's okay to see them, but they won't necessarily be willing to tell them what they have."

Needless to say, these gangsters must have opened up Haojiang's connections to be able to transport contraband in unimpeded. It doesn't matter who they have opened up, as long as they can hold this channel in their hands, there will be no obstacles to Fang Lang's follow-up plans.

But it is obviously impossible to get those gangsters to obediently hand over the channels for them to eat. Although John Zeng has been promoted to detective, it is impossible to ask the other party to hand over his wealth with a single sentence.

But Qi Qingshan obviously didn't have as many worries as John Zeng, I saw him smile slightly, his face was relaxed, he picked up a piece of barbecued pork and stuffed it into his mouth, and said while chewing it with relish:

"It's okay, you just have to tell me their names and locations, and I'll naturally find a way to solve the rest."

As soon as these words came out, John Zeng immediately understood what the other party was doing! Qi Qingshan's simple and direct military thinking frightened him a lot, and he was a little worried that they would make something big in Hong Kong City.

"Wait, don't worry, you wait, let me think about it and see if there's any other way!

It must be their boss who can master this channel, but their boss is not a simple person, he has a close relationship with some big bosses of the Chamber of Commerce in Port City, and he also has a relationship with several British bosses.

If you do it directly to him, it may attract a lot of attention, which is not good. ”

Qi Qingshan didn't expect it to be so troublesome, a gang member, who has a close relationship with the boss of the Chamber of Commerce, and has a relationship with the British elders.

However, he quickly reacted, this guy often organizes customers to travel across the sea, these people are his big customers, a stable and safe tourist route is indeed liked by many big people. If something happens to this guy, maybe there are really big people who will pay attention.

After all, no one knows if these big guys had any tricks left in the hands of this guy when they used to play.

"Then you see if there is a way to make this guy willingly tell this thing he knows?"

John Zeng was deep in thought, and after hearing Qi Qingshan's words, he pondered for a while before he slowly spoke:

"It's not completely impossible. However, this may require the help of Inspector Yao Mu. ”

It is clear who Yao Mu is Qi Qingshan, not only did the two sides meet on Stanley Street, but later, this guy also made a special trip to the Peninsula Hotel to visit Fang Lang.

"This Yao Mu is not our own person, if we get him involved, there will be chaos."

There is no need for Qi Qingshan to say this, John Zeng also knows it very well, which is why he hesitated again and again. He could have directly reported Fang Lang's needs, and he could have provided them with an information.

But he knew that the information that could be provided at home was not necessarily what they needed. Of course, if Haojiang's intelligence officers go to investigate in-depth now, they will definitely be able to investigate the information they want, but it may not be in time.

That's why he thought of starting with the gangsters in Port City.

"Yes! Yao Mu is not an easy person, and if he doesn't do it, he will be caught. Unless, we have a justifiable reason. Otherwise, it's really hard to find him. ”

Hearing John Zeng's words, Qi Qingshan also began to fall into thought, and for a while, the box fell into silence.

Just when John Zeng was about to give up this train of thought, Qi Qingshan seemed to suddenly think of something, patted his thigh and said:

"I've come up with a solution, but I'm not sure if it's going to work until I go back and ask my boss for sure.

You should apply to you first and see if you can provide us with a piece of information from your side.

We're on both sides of the same day, trying to get the accurate information we want. ”

Hearing this, John Zeng looked at Qi Qingshan in surprise again, but this time he didn't ask any questions. He just nodded deeply and said:

"No problem, I'll contact my superiors immediately and try to send the information as quickly as possible."

By the time Qi Qingshan returned to the Peninsula Hotel, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

"So, your plan now is to have people ask you for help in the name of Hong Yitang, and then, you come forward to ask Yao Mu to help solve this problem?"

Fang Lang sat on the sofa in front of the window of the Peninsula Hotel, smoking a cigar while looking at the sea view outside the window, facing Qiqing Mountain Road beside him.

"Yes, in this way, I can find Yao Mu to help in the name of personal help, and he shouldn't give me this face."

Qi Qingshan sat opposite Fang Lang's sofa, looking at Fang Lang's gaze with a hint of apprehension in his eyes. Obviously, he hoped that Fang Lang would approve of his plan.

But Fang Lang didn't speak immediately, but took a deep puff of his cigar and exhaled a smoke ring before he slowly spoke:

"Do you think Yao Mu won't be able to find out my relationship with Hong Yitang?"

Hearing this, Qi Qingshan was obviously stunned, he really hadn't thought about this question, his question was not difficult to answer, the Fang family had not many projects in Hong Kong City, and it was not difficult for Yao Mu to know the relationship between the two.

If he asked Yao Mu for help in the name of Hong Yitang, he might not feel anything abnormal. But he would definitely think that this was what Fang Lang asked him to do, and Yao Mu would definitely find an opportunity to get this favor back.

It's not good, when you use the Haojiang route to carry goods, you will be caught by the other party.

"This ......"

Seeing that Qi Qingshan seemed to react, Fang Lang did not blame the other party, but pressed the cigar out in the ashtray next to him, and slowly got up and said:

"Instead of us begging him, let's find a way to get him to come to the door. I'm telling you, you're ...... ...... like this"

After hearing Fang Lang's plan, Qi Qingshan couldn't help but sigh, compared to his boss, he was indeed not on the same level.

That night, Yao Mu was having dinner with his wife in his mansion, when a subordinate hurried to Yao Mu's house.

"Sir, we just received a message that Bai Cunbao from Hongmen Dasheng Hall has made an appointment with Zhongyi's Curly Mao Kang to go to Central for supper tonight."

Hearing this, Yao Mu's brows couldn't help frowning, and he said with a puzzled expression:

"When did the two of them get together? Didn't Bai Cunbao take Hongmen Dashengtang to talk about the rivers and lakes of Hong Kong City? ”

When his subordinates heard this, they hurriedly reported what they had learned to Yao Mu:

"It seems that an overseas hall of Hongmen encountered something in Macau and asked Bai Cunbao for his head.

I didn't expect Bai Cunbao, an old thing, to be so positive. Immediately, he personally came forward to make an appointment to meet with the loyal Curly Mao Kang. ”

The speaker has no intention and the listener has the intention. As soon as Yao Mu heard that his subordinates said that Bai Cunbao was very positive, he immediately thought of a possibility, and hurriedly asked:

"Do you know that it is the entrance of Hongmen?"

Seeing that Yao Mu seemed to be interested, the subordinates hurriedly got serious, and thought about it for a while before saying:

"I don't remember exactly which hall it is, but it seems to be a Hongmen hall from Brazil."

Yao Mu, who was eating, stood up as soon as he heard Brazil, and startled the lady who was eating opposite, and this subordinate, and some didn't understand what was going on, why Chief Inspector Yao would react so much.

"Are you sure it's the Hongmen Hall of Brazil? Is it called Pasir Hongyitang? ”

When the subordinates heard Yao Mu's words, they nodded again and again:

"Yes, yes, it seems to be called Brazil Hongyitang."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Yao Mu stood up and walked back and forth in the restaurant, still muttering in his mouth:

"Okay, you Bai Cunbao, but you said that you will advance and retreat together, if you have any news about General Fang, notify me as soon as possible.

Now that the opportunity has come, you kid wants to go it alone.

It's okay, let people stare at you, otherwise, this time you kid will succeed. ”
