"Your name is Kong Jinhui?"
Meng Shaoyuan stared at the middle-aged man in front of him with interest.
"Yes Yes."
Kong Jinhui's body was shaking a little.
"Don't be nervous. Do you want to smoke?"
Meng Shaoyuan looked pleasant.
"Thank you, I have it, I have it."
Kong Jinhui took out a cigarette and lit one with trembling hands.
"Get him a glass of water."
Meng Shaoyuan looked very polite.
Kong Jinhui, Kong Yuxun's nephew, was responsible for coming to Shanghai to help him with the front line.
Kong Yuxun had an admirer in Shanghai named Ouyang Jian. He had been exchanging letters in the past, always expressing his admiration for Kong Yuxun in his letters.
Ouyang Jian has quite a fortune in Shanghai. He also practiced martial arts when he was young and has a number of disciples.
How to ensure safety when arriving in Shanghai is something Kong Yuxun has always considered.
Live in a Japanese-controlled area?
That would be equivalent to being proven to be a traitor by others.
Kong Yuxun would never do this.
When you live in Ouyang Jian's house, your safety should be guaranteed.
Kong Jinhui came to Shanghai with this mission.
But his fate was also bad. As soon as he entered Shanghai, he was secretly arrested by the military commander before anything happened.
Before being tortured, he confessed everything.
"Come on, I have some questions."
Meng Shaoyuan took out a few stacks of money and piled them neatly on the table:
"If you answer to my satisfaction, the money is yours."
Is there such a good thing?
Kong Jinhui couldn't believe it.
"First question." Meng Shaoyuan asked: "Have Kong Yuxun and Ouyang Jian met?"
"No, they have been exchanging letters for seven or eight years, but they have never met in person."
"good."
Meng Shaoyuan picked up a stack of money and threw it to Kong Jinhui opposite: "It's yours."
Is this...really?
Kong Jinhui still couldn't believe it when he took the money.
"Second question, how did Kong Yuxun and Ouyang Jian contact each other?"
"I sent a telegram before coming here. In the telegram, Ouyang Jian welcomed my uncle very much to come to Shanghai."
Another stack of money was thrown over: "You have to answer the third question, and the rest are yours. Tell me something that interests me, related to Kong Yuxun or Ouyang Jian of."
Kong Jinhui thought for a while: "In the telegram, Ouyang Jian said that he had been seriously ill recently, so he sent his favorite youngest son Ouyang Rong to be fully responsible for everything after his uncle arrived in Shanghai. My uncle would send Kong Shoude to Shanghai the day after tomorrow, He is responsible for everything he does in Shanghai. To put it bluntly, he is the one responsible for contacting and outposting."
"Who is Kong Shoude?"
"My uncle's butler, he has been with him for many years."
"How old is Ouyang Rong?"
"About the same age as the commander."
"You take all this money."
Meng Shaoyuan pointed at the money.
Kong Jinhui believed it was true this time.
Meng Shaoyuan took the banana on the table, peeled one, put it in his mouth and ate it slowly. After a while, he suddenly said: "Kong Jinhui, your uncle betrayed the country for glory and is a traitor. If you follow him, you are also a traitor." , I will give you a chance to make atonement now."
"I wonder what sir wants me to do?"
Kong Jinhui asked cautiously.
"You send a message to Kong Yuxun and say that you have contacted Ouyang Jian and the other party has made appropriate arrangements. At the same time, Ouyang... what is his son's name?"
"Ouyang Rong."
"Yes, Ouyang Rong will personally receive Kong Yuxun and ensure his safety in Shanghai."
"OK."
"And I." Meng Shaoyuan put down the banana peel and pointed at his nose: "I am that Ouyang Rong."
"What, you?"
"Me!" Meng Shaoyuan said with great certainty: "As long as you do what I say, after it is done, I will give you a large sum of money and send you abroad to live a happy life, which will be better than yours." It's much better to be by Kong Yuxun's side."
Kong Jinhui glanced at the money in his arms, and then at Meng Shaoyuan.
He is just a small and insignificant person with no lofty ambitions. The so-called uncle has a bad reputation in Shandong and has been expelled from the Kong family.
You can't make much money by following him.
Kong Jinhui gritted his teeth and said, "I will do whatever the officer orders."
"Very good." Meng Shaoyuan picked up another banana: "You go out first, someone will arrange it for you."
"Then I'll go out first."
Kong Jinhui stood up carefully holding the money.
Outside, Wu Jingyi was talking to a man wearing a hat.
This man's back was turned to Kong Jinhui, and his age and appearance could not be discerned...
…
"How did you catch Kong Jinhui?"
"It didn't take much effort. We sent a large number of people to monitor the docks and the only way to enter the public concession, especially those from Shandong. Kong Jinhui spoke with a strong accent from Qufu, Shandong, and was watched by us at that time. We sent someone to approach him, chatted with him for a while, and then determined his identity."
"oh."
Meng Shaoyuan nodded: "Those who participated in the pseudo-rebellion will soon arrive in Shanghai one after another. I am in charge of Kong Yuxun's place. How is the situation at Zhang Yulin's place?"
"Zhang Yulin's situation is more complicated." Wu Jingyi said immediately: "This man is a hardcore traitor. He was escorted all the way from Nanjing to Shanghai. It is estimated that as soon as he arrives in Shanghai, he will live in the Japanese-controlled area and be closely protected by No. 76 .”
"The chances are slim."
Meng Shaoyuan thought for a while: "Show me his file."
After reading the files carefully for a while, Meng Shaoyuan raised his head: "It's a pity for this man. He has a lot of insights in finance. If he is not a traitor, he can be reused. There are not many opportunities, but one thing is that he is a drug addict. Bad habits.”
"so what?"
Wu Jingyi didn't particularly understand.
"That means there is an opportunity." Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "Nanjing does not need Shanghai. It is a completely occupied area, and drug dealers are not willing to do business there. Unlike our big Shanghai, there is a public Concession. When Zhang Yulin comes to Shanghai, he will definitely find ways to make large purchases. In this way, won't your opportunity come?"
Wu Jingyi understood immediately: "I know, we control several drug dealers."
"If it doesn't succeed, everything is nonsense." Meng Shaoyuan closed the file: "But if it succeeds, when reporting your achievements, focus on yourself."
"Why?"
Wu Jingyi was startled.
"Why?" Meng Shaoyuan glanced at her: "Don't forget, you are still guilty and sentenced to death. If Mr. Dai is in a bad mood one day and thinks of this matter again... make more great contributions, at least in the future. There is still room for salvation in emergencies.”
Wu Jingyi was silent.
Even if the young master Meng in front of him has a thousand or ten thousand shortcomings, he is impeccable in how he treats his own people. He is truly capable of risking his life to protect those around him.
Following a man like this will be worth it even if you die in the future.
In the corner of the office, there was a person sitting, who never said a word from beginning to end.
Neither Meng Shaoyuan nor Wu Jingyi seemed to care about this person's existence at all!
