Forty large yellow croaker, that's 12,500 grams of gold.

It's not cheap, but when you think of the $60,000 50-square-meter shop, it feels like a lot more cost-effective.

"I heard that the shops in this French Concession are very expensive, more expensive than this house, is there such a thing?"

Zhou Qinghe took the opportunity to ask this question, the price difference between this residence and the shop is not a little bit and a half, which is really confusing.

The price of a 300-square-meter high-end villa is less than a quarter of that of a 50-square-meter shop.

The intermediary Zhang Jincan looked at the outsiders with a clear look, raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "The boss is a foreigner, right?" ”

"See? How so? ”

"You go and buy a map of Shanghai and see, this Shanghai is like a round cake, the middle is cut horizontally twice, and the most essential middle strip is the concession.

People from all over Shanghai and even the whole country and the world want to come to Shanghai to do business, so where to look?

Of course, it's a concession, it's safe, and the rent will definitely not be cheap. ”

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the road in the distance:

"Don't mention a whole street like Xiafei Road, where foreign famous brands abound.

You just say that Shangxianfang behind Xiafei Road, Cantonese people sell department stores, Northeast people sell leather goods, Ningbo people sell hardware, and people from Northern Jiangsu open barber shops, and the rent is still not cheap. ”

Zhou Qinghe understood why the store was expensive, Shanghai has a port, and the trade of the whole country and even the world is rising, and they all come to Shanghai to do business.

The concession is safe, and the first choice for shops to settle down is the concession, but the concession is so big, and after some scramble, it is no wonder that the shop is so expensive.

It's businessmen all over the world fighting for storefronts.

"But what about this house? Housing isn't too expensive, is it? ”

"Boss, that's not expensive for you."

Zhang Jincan smiled and said: "This is going to say the other two halves of the cake, the upper half is Zhabei and the lower half is Nanshi."

The business people want to have a large flow of customers and be safe, and the store is in the concession, but people don't have to live in the concession, Zhabei and South City can do it.

That's how cheap the rent is. ”

"Huh."

Zhou Qinghe fully understood, going to work guerrillas.

"How much does the house cost outside?"

"It's cheap, anyway, the money to rent a small attic here is enough to rent a whole good house outside."

understood, Zhou Qinghe pressed the price, and finally negotiated thirty-eight large yellow croaker, and the deal was almost done.

Zhang Jincan talked about a big business, and he was also smiling, and chased after him: "Mr. bought a house, do you want the maid to help you introduce it?" Gardeners, cooks, maids, if you have a car, the driver can also help you find it. ”

"Not yet."

How do you know that Zhang Jincan said: "Sir, I still want it, Shanghainese talk about style, you said that you went out to meet your neighbors, but you didn't have a single servant in your family, and you lost your fortune." ”

Zhou Qinghe glanced at him and chuckled and said, "I have someone to serve in my hometown, and I will come with me, so I don't need to recruit any more people." ”

"That's right, that's pretty good, then I'll contact the original owner and sign the contract?"

"Okay, you go ahead and arrange it."

Zhou Qinghe walked around the house casually, walked to the balcony to look around, and found that the house was really good, the distance between the buildings was far away, and the privacy was very good.

However, Zhang Jincan's words just now, he can understand why the house here is relatively inexpensive.

If you want to maintain the dignity of the boss living in a mansion in Shanghai, you have to spend money.

A servant, a cook, a security guard and a driver, even if they only invite these three people, according to the salary level of the French Concession, at least 120 yuan a month.

The landmark international hotel is only 5 yuan a day, and the money for the maid is enough to directly pay for the year.

The boss has a lot of money, and he is not stupid, so why not just live in the hotel?

It's just some big bosses who talk about style, or a family, that must live alone.

Either Zhou Qinghe, because of his identity, there are many people living in hotels every day, and he will not have his own single-family house to travel.

The French Concession is the safest here, and you have to buy it.

After finishing the things here, Zhou Qinghe returned to the International Hotel to rest.

At noon the next day, Zhou Qinghe went to the agreed teahouse on time and waited for his subordinates to come and report.

The location is in the public concession.

Zeng Haifeng's home is also in the public concession, and for the convenience of his activities, he chose a residence in the border area.

In the past, the concession was not large, but after the British and Americans saw the benefits, they tried to expand the public concession and expand outward little by little to build houses, and Zeng Haifeng's residence was this one.

Right now, Zhou Qinghe is staying on the second floor of the teahouse, leaning against the window, drinking tea while enjoying the scenery of the world downstairs.

The women in Shanghai are indeed fashionable, the women in the concession are also rich, not to mention the dresses of foreign women, and the Chinese women's cheongsam is split and slightly powdered, and they are also beautiful and tight when they walk.

At 11:55, 5 minutes before the agreed meeting at 12 o'clock, Zhou Qinghe had already seen the team members.

Liu Kai, Wang Yong's subordinate, is a confidant, Zhou Qinghe has seen a few actions, this Liu Kai is indeed more clever, bold and careful, this time Wang Yong sent him to protect Section Chief Zhou.

However, his eyes may not be good, so he looked around for the name of the store and walked straight to the front of the teahouse.

Zhou Qinghe frowned slightly, condescending, and his eyes swept behind Liu Kai.

Sure enough, there were two people behind him who pretended to walk casually, but their pace was very steady, and their eyes never left Liu Kai's back.

"Why did you get targeted?"

I wanted to be the ghost behind the Black Dragon Society, but I didn't expect to be caught by a ghost, this black dragon will be difficult enough.

Zhou Qinghe didn't rush to act, drank tea and observed the meeting again, and after confirming that there were only two people on the other side, he dropped five yuan on the table and went downstairs.

By the way, a slender dinner knife for cutting steaks was taken from the dining table that I didn't have time to clean up.

Immediately after the two.

Two people, at noon, can't be made a sound by each other, so as not to be remembered for their faces, they must be decisive in their actions and retreat quickly.

Zhou Qinghe followed the two people in front of him, followed Liu Kai's steps, and turned into the alley, a long alley, Liu Kai was in front, and the two were in the middle.

Zhou Qinghe glanced around the alley, stepped forward quickly, and made a sharp move.

The left hand stretched out, covered the mouth of the person on the left, and cut the throat with a horizontal knife!

When the blood rushed out, Zhou Qinghe took a quick step, jumped up suddenly, and stabbed a knife from right to left, obliquely into the neck of the person on the right!

Bang, two bodies fell to the ground.

"The rental world."

Zhou Qinghe left the words to Liu Kai and walked past him quickly.

Five minutes later, a beeping whistle sounded in the alley, and the police arrived.

At the mouth of the concession, the two converged.

Liu Kai said happily: "I knew that the section chief would definitely find out." ”

"What's going on?" Zhou Qinghe asked in a low voice.

Liu Kaima appealed.

He didn't find anything abnormal when he was tracking Zeng Haifeng, and he did see someone following Zeng Haifeng, just two people.

When it came to the agreed time with Zhou Qinghe, he turned back in advance to report and called a rickshaw to the public concession, which was nothing at this time.

But when he got out of the car and paid, he cautiously swept his back with his peripheral eyes and found that two rickshaws had also stopped.

At first, he was still skeptical, but after entering the concession, he tried many times, and with the help of the afterglow scan of the turn, he confirmed that he was targeted.

So he passed directly in front of the agreed teahouse without entering, thinking that with the section chief's carefulness, he would definitely be able to find out, if he didn't find out, he was ready to do it himself, but he wasn't sure how many people there were.

Moreover, killing people in the concession, once it attracts attention, it is not easy to get out again.

Fortunately, the section chief arrived in time.

It can be regarded as a tacit cooperation.

"In other words, there are four people who are tracking Zeng Haifeng, and these two are specifically here to keep an eye on you?"

Zeng Haifeng sent a telegram to Shanghai, and the other party guessed that the secret service would know that Zeng Haifeng had been targeted, which was deliberately fishing to lure them into taking the bait.

"Yes, I suspect they played a game of praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind."

Liu Kai guessed that these people wanted to find the main messenger this time, that is, Zhou Qinghe, through him.

Zhou Qinghe thought for a moment, and immediately said, "Let's go, kill the remaining two." ”

Liu Kai missed his appearance, and the spy was remembered for his appearance, so don't think about doing things, these people must not stay.

Two rickshaws were called, and the two went straight to the surveillance point.

It was noon at the moment, and Zeng Haifeng was working in the Shanghai District of the Secret Service on Huachang Road.

The Japanese were watching not far from the entrance of the secret service, while Liu Kai's people were watching from a farther distance.

The two got out of the car at the corner, and Liu Kai pointed to a black sedan in the distance, which was followed by Zeng Haifeng.

And their people, one drinking tea at a tea stall, three sitting in a rented car.

"Section chief, then I'll ask them to do it together?"

"Wait."

Zhou Qinghe poked his head out to look at the cigarette sellers, shoe stalls, and fruit stalls at the door of the secret service, and directly stretched out his hand to stop him.

Zeng Haifeng has not been targeted for a day or two, and the secret service has been targeted for a longer time, and I don't know if there are any Japanese among these small merchants and hawkers.

Zhou Qinghe thought about it, and soon had an idea, and said to him: "You call in, go directly to Zeng Haifeng, don't reveal our identity, just say your surname is Gu, and let him do it." ”

"Okay." Liu Kai nodded immediately, so that their people would not be exposed.

"Also, let your subordinates, surround both ends, these few people at the door, nine times out of ten, someone has a problem, and someone may leave to report something later, I will give a gesture, and you will arrest people."

"Understood."

"Zeng Haifeng finished arresting people, gave him the location of the teahouse, and asked him to wait for us there."

"Yes."

"Go ahead."

After Zhou Qinghe finished speaking, Liu Kai hurriedly left, and soon, the team members on the tea stall got up and began to wander, and went to the front of the road after swaying.

Liu Kai, on the other hand, found a public phone and called Shanghai directly to ask the secretary's office to transfer it.

After a while, Liu Kai returned, nodded slightly at Zhou Qinghe, and stood not far away without approaching.

Five minutes later, the door of the Shanghai District of the Secret Service suddenly opened, and more than 20 people rushed out, led by a female captain, and turned to the left with great momentum.

The goal seemed to be forward, and the Japanese sedan did not dare to move, but they soon learned that they were wrong.

When more than 20 people passed by the car, they staggered by, turned their heads and pulled out their guns, and with a da-da, the gushing bullets shot out from more than 20 guns, forming a pincer posture from the left and right, ruthlessly penetrating the car door, and directly smashing the people inside.

Start harder, there is no way to live!

The corners of Zhou Qinghe's mouth pursed, this Zeng Haifeng was also angry, especially when he came out of the gate of the secret service, his small eyes searched around, as if he wanted to find the voice of the person who reported the news, and there was actually an excited smile on his face.

It's just that when Zhou Qinghe really didn't find his figure, he immediately turned his anger to the person who was following him.

He walked quickly to the smashed carriage and shouted, "Fuck, dare to follow Lao Tzu, drag me out, and throw all the corpses to feed the dogs!" ”

"Yes!"

Zeng Haifeng was showing off his might over there, while Zhou Qinghe was looking at a bunch of vendors on both sides of the road.

"Selling cigarettes." Selling and selling, people are getting closer and closer, and they actually go towards the public phone used by Liu Kai.

Liu Kai asked whether to start, Zhou Qinghe shook his head slightly, and Liu Kai gave up.

"Let Zeng Haifeng handle these two people by himself, and we won't show our heads, let's go."

Zhou Qinghe walked a little farther, took a rickshaw, and returned to the restaurant.

At this moment, the murder case just now was already being discussed in the restaurant.

"Oh, in broad daylight, two living people are just in the concession, it's really going to die."

"I heard that the two who died were Japanese."

"Really? Do the Japanese dare to kill? And this is still in the concession. ”

"I don't know, this person is bold, I heard that the Japanese are now trying to let the police find the murderer, I heard that this murderer must be a very good person."

"Dare to kill the Japanese, have the courage."

"Be quiet, others still think you killed it, but the Japanese heard it, be careful that people retaliate against you."

"Tsk, but it's really not safe right now."

"Who's to say it isn't? The British and American concessions are not safe for the French, so they still have to find a way to move into the French concession. ”

"You're not Japanese, what are you afraid of?"

"What if there is a fight? I still have to move. ”

"How can it be so simple, you can move it with a touch of two mouths, and it's expensive to death."

Zhou Qinghe was still in the old position, and continued to observe the scenery outside the window on the second floor, obviously, Zeng Haifeng was in a hurry, and the sloppy person rolled up.

When he saw Zhou Qinghe, he showed such a smile, but Zhou Qinghe gestured and asked him to find a place to sit by himself, and then watched the movement downstairs.

It seems that it has indeed been cleaned up, except for the team members who came with Zeng Haifeng, the others Zhou Qinghe didn't see it, so he nodded slightly at Zeng Haifeng.

Zeng Haifeng and the others were in a hurry, and immediately came over with a smile: "I knew it was you as soon as I guessed, if it was Gu Zhiyan, then just walk in and tell me, haha, Qinghe, I want to kill my brother." ”

"Blind excitement what." Zhou Qinghe glanced at him, and said angrily: "Hurry up and sit down, you don't even know that you were followed, are you embarrassed to talk to me?" Waste my two pieces of information, two, Brother Zeng! ”

"I didn't mean to." Zeng Haifeng was still aggrieved, he glanced outside, and whispered: "It's not that I don't know about being followed, but what do you think I can do?" Act rashly and alert the enemy?

If I clear them, they will all know, and the backhand may do me, I can run away from the monk, and I can run away from the temple? ”

Now that the other party is just tracking, Zeng Haifeng will definitely not do it, this matter must be carefully considered, it is useless to kill one or two, if you want to kill, you have to kill the Black Dragon Society, so that they dare not follow, again, you have to find out the ghost inside, and then change the office location, completely hide your whereabouts.

Otherwise, it doesn't mean much at all whether to kill or not.

"Qinghe, thank you for helping me." Zeng Haifeng raised his teacup and smiled there.

"I'm unlucky to run into you." Zhou Qinghe touched his cup with him: "If someone else took two pieces of information from me, the Black Dragon Society would have been buried, and the Black Dragon Society would have been buried, so I would have buried him, and it would be your great-brother, I still have to rush up to help." ”

"Hey, hey, good brother." Zeng Haifeng laughed, the frustration of the past few days was gone all of a sudden, "I'll pick you up in the evening, and our brothers will have a good meal." ”

"Don't." Zhou Qinghe raised his hand directly: "Now you are Zhang Mingpai on the Japanese side, knowing that you are the mayor of Shanghai, if not fifty, but also thirty, eat with you?" I'm afraid of a belly bullet. ”

"How can it be so exaggerated, there is a good place, it's a big deal for the French Concession."

Everyone has come to Shanghai, this is not invited, Zeng Haifeng is embarrassed.

"No, I don't have more contact with you, you're too dangerous now, I'm in the dark, you're in the light, let's dig out these people first."

"Okay, then get down to business." Zeng Haifeng raised his eyebrows, and said hatefully: "There is an inner ghost in the station in my arms, and the deputy district chief is the inner ghost." ”

"I'm not familiar with the things in your district, so I don't care about it for now." Zhou Qinghe waved his hand slightly: "The source is still in the Black Dragon Society, you first arrest the newspaper boss and the cigarette dealer outside your office, and interrogate it to see if there are any clues." ”

"Are you sure?"

"You doubt my judgment?"

"Don't dare." Zeng Haifeng smiled and got up: "Then I'll go right away, but where do you live, how can I contact you next?" ”

Zhou Qinghe thought about it when he heard this, although the person at the door would die later, Zeng Haifeng's appearance was exposed, and there was still a possibility of being targeted later.

After thinking about it, he said: "Two things, the first thing, kill another wave at night."

When you deal with the eyeliner later, the Japanese will probably send someone to watch after receiving the news, and I will ask my subordinates to cooperate with you, as long as the Japanese are still staring at you, I will kill another wave.

The second thing, you go to the International Hotel to open a room first, after confirming the room number, call here and tell me, I will help you keep an eye on the International Hotel at night, you go to the room after work and wait for me, make sure no one is following, and I will look for you again. ”

Prepare with both hands and be safe.

"Okay, that's it." Zeng Haifeng also felt that this plan was feasible, "Then I'll go first and see you in the evening." ”

"Well, go ahead."

Zhou Qinghe picked up the teacup and drank tea silently, Xiao Japan didn't let him down, and then continued to star, and when he came, he would kill another wave.

This Shanghai, not yet the Shanghai controlled by the Japanese, is too rampant.
