Li Shiqun's trip to Nanjing went surprisingly smoothly.
Gao Guanwu, the pseudo-mayor of Nanjing, agreed to spend a huge sum of US$350,000 without much hesitation.
Among them, 120,000 yuan was his own money, and the rest was just received from the pseudo-Nanjing Municipal Government funds and various taxes that had just been collected.
Gao Guanwu absolutely trusted Li Shiqun.
In his eyes, Li Shiqun was capable and courageous, and he was highly regarded by the Japanese. He would definitely do nothing wrong.
As long as you give him the money temporarily, you can get such a generous return in a month or two at most. Why not?
As for how to maintain the normal operation of the Nanjing Municipal Government and how to deal with the Japanese, Gao Guanwu had his own methods.
Having been a traitor for a long time, people like Gao Guanwu know one truth:
The Japanese are not as smart as they think.
They are still human and can be fooled.
Li Shiqun can be said to have achieved a great victory in Nanjing.
As soon as he returned to Shanghai, another exciting news arrived:
The whereabouts of Siyi Zhang were found.
All the credit must go to Bian Tongzhou.
It's not difficult to find Xin Yichen's whereabouts. All you need to do is find the Xinyi Zhai he opened.
According to Xin Yichen's family, Xin Yichen disappeared during the battle at the Sixing Warehouse in Shanghai.
From now on, life or death is unknown.
"Oh, missing?"
Li Shiqun was immediately interested.
Why didn't he disappear earlier than later, but why did he disappear as soon as the war started?
"I inquired carefully and found out that Xin Yichen did work in Liulichang, Peking in his early years, and indeed married the daughter of the owner of Baoyizhai. Later, Baoyizhai collapsed and quietly left Peiping and moved to Shanghai."
The information is completely correct.
Li Shiqun was in high spirits: "Go on."
"Yes." Bian Tongzhou continued: "I thought that since Xin Yichen is missing, it would be extremely difficult to find him in a short time. I might as well start with his family members, and maybe we can get useful information, so I will His wife and son were all tied up.
After interrogation after interrogation, it seems that they don't know Xin Yichen's whereabouts, but when I asked about Si Yi Zhang, his son Xin Luozhi's expression changed obviously. I saw something was up..."
How can there be any good thing if it falls into the hands of No. 76?
After one "greeting", Xin Luozhi said everything.
The Xin family has a seal with the words "Siyi Binfu" printed on it, but Xin Yichen has never told his son how this chapter came about and the origin of the allusion.
"Zhang, have you found it?"
"I sent people to look for the Xin family and Xinyizhai. I think there will be news in the afternoon." Bian Tongzhou said immediately: "Bian Tongzhou disappeared so suddenly. Nothing was taken away. I estimate that Siyi Zhang is still there. over there."
"We must find this seal."
Li Shiqun pondered for a while: "Without this chapter, no matter how hard we try, it will be useless. We must find the Siyi Chapter. I am going to Nanjing this time, and Gao Guanwu is willing to give his full assistance. The rest depends on Dingmo Village With Tang Huimin, let’s split up and you’ll be in charge of the Seyizhang, and I’ll talk to them about the money!”
"yes!"
…
"Mr. Zai Rong."
"Mr. Yano, welcome."
"This is Takeshi Okamura whom you named."
Okamura Takeshi looked gloomy and nodded towards Zai Rong as a greeting.
Since the fall of the Takamatsu Group, there has never been a smile on his face.
"Mr. Okamura, you probably know that General Asama and Mr. Takamatsu also know each other. General Asama would like to extend his deep condolences to Mr. Takamatsu for his misfortune."
"Thanks."
Okamura Takeshi had no intention of listening to this: "Tell me, what message did General Asama ask you to bring?"
"Before, there was a shooting case in the Shanghai Public Settlement, which was related to the drug trade. I think you have all heard of it?"
In this shooting case, it is said that Ji Yunqing and Li Shiqun teamed up to sell drugs. For some reason, the buyer took advantage of the situation and killed Ji Yunqing's people and stole the money and drugs.
There is no explanation as to why Zai Rong suddenly brought up this case.
"General Qianjian captured several drug dealers in Xuzhou who ran away from Shanghai." Zai Rong said immediately: "After interrogation overnight, they were the group of people who participated in the drug robbery of Ji Yunqing.
On them, General Asama not only seized two boxes of drugs, but also found a letter..."
After saying that, Zai Rong took out a letter and handed it to Yano Renpei.
Yano Renpei's face changed slightly after reading it: "Okamura-kun, I think you need to be responsible for the content in this letter."
"This transaction is very important and must not be discovered by the Japanese... No matter whether Japan wins or loses in China, we need to find a way out in advance... By opening up the trading channel between Shanghai and Hong Kong, we can be invincible place……"
Signature:
Li Shiqun!
This is the letter that Meng Shaoyuan specifically asked Sugino Kazuhide to find on the day of the drug robbery!
"Baga!" Okamura Takeshi shouted angrily: "This Li Shiqun has a bad conscience. Arrest him immediately!"
"etc."
Yano Renping hurriedly stopped: "Although I am in charge of the police, I also know that Li Shiqun cannot be convicted based on this letter, which I don't know whether it is true or not. Even if the letter is true, he is at most a waver. That’s all.
Especially now, Mr. Yingzuo still needs to rely on Li Shiqun. Even if he sees this letter, he will not deal with it for the time being. "
"This bastard!"
Takeshi Okamura was unwilling to give in: "He killed Lord Takamatsu and so many loyal and brave soldiers of the empire, and he can still get away with it? I am not willing to accept it, I am not willing to accept it!"
Zai Rong suddenly said: "Mr. Yano, Mr. Okamura, when it comes to conspiracy with power, our Qing Dynasty had quite a lot of them back then. I have a way...
There is nothing you can do about Li Shiqun for the time being, but you can bring him great misfortune. By the way, Mr. Yano and Mr. Okamura can also make a fortune from it..."
"Oh, tell me."
"This time, in addition to this letter, General Asama also asked me to bring two boxes of heroin..."
After Zai Rong said all his thoughts, Yano Renpei frowned: "What are the benefits of doing this? How will you explain it to General Asama?"
"If you think about it carefully, Mr. Yano, in the end I will lose nothing."
Zai Rong smiled: "But I made you a fortune. In Shanghai, instead of trying to please Li Shiqun, why don't I just find two powerful Japanese to be my backers?"
Yano Renhei smiled.
Not a bad plan.
This plan will in no way damage the dignity of the Japanese Empire!
Li Shiqun?
That's his thing.
If a Chinese is unlucky, what does it have to do with the Japanese?
As for Takeshi Okamura?
He agreed without even a second's thought.
As long as he can avenge Lord Takamatsu, he is willing to do anything.
It's time for Li Shiqun to pay the price for his "betrayal"!
