Hostage exchange is not a rare thing, it happens all the time in Shanghai.
The exchange process is not complicated either.
A total of forty hostages were exchanged.
But there is no such thing as He Chuannie.
According to Li Shiqun’s reply:
He Chuan Nie was seriously ill and unable to move, so he chose another hostage to take his place.
When He Chuan Nie recovered from his illness, he was immediately released.
The extra hostage should be regarded as a gift from him, Li Shiqun.
All this was within Meng Shaoyuan's expectations.
He Chuan said that Nie's illness could not be cured, and Li Shiqun would not release him at all.
It would be enough if Han Yanyun could be rescued smoothly.
The first time I saw Han Yanyun, she was just an ordinary girl.
Meng Shaoyuan asked, and sure enough, she and Kong Lingyi were classmates when they were in Shanghai, and they had a very good relationship.
It’s done, it’s her.
The task assigned by the eldest lady was successfully completed.
No need to come to Shanghai again.
Meng Shaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Those hostages who were released were all thanks to her eldest lady, otherwise how could they be released so easily?
Meng Shaoyuan called Wei Bingkuan and asked him to come to his place to collect people.
It's not a particularly important task.
But this is the privilege of the powerful class.
With one order, all the agents in Shanghai were mobilized.
Just to save a friend of hers.
How could anyone else have such a good life?
"Eat, eat."
Meng Shaoyuan patted his belly: "I have to have a good meal at noon."
…
Meng Shaoyuan ate a large bowl of noodles with large meat and large intestines.
This meal was almost full.
When he returned to the headquarters, Qi Xuezhen was already waiting for him there: "Wei Bingkuan, Gu Xichen, and Bei Zuyi are here and waiting for you."
Um?
Why did the three of them come at the same time?
What other major events have happened?
Otherwise, it would be impossible for these three people to appear here at the same time.
"knew."
Meng Shaoyuan responded and entered the reception room.
"Director Meng, you are finally back."
As soon as they saw Meng Shaoyuan come in, the three people who had been waiting there stood up at the same time.
Looking at Wei Bingkuan's face, there seemed to be a bit of panic.
problem occurs!
Instead, Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Please sit down, please sit down. Why didn't you say hello before you came?"
"Ah, something happened temporarily, something happened temporarily."
Wei Bingkuan hesitated for a while: "Director Meng, is there anyone named He Chuannie among the hostages released this time?"
Meng Shaoyuan's heart thumped.
He Chuan Nie?
He sat down and took out a cigarette: "No."
Wei Bingkuan and the other two looked at each other.
Everyone looked desperate.
Meng Shaoyuan clearly caught their expressions: "Why did you suddenly ask about this person?"
"It's okay, it's okay." As the deputy general manager of Bank of China, Bei Zuyi said perfunctorily: "He is the deputy director of our accounting department, so I ask specifically."
"Just a deputy director, not a full director." Meng Shaoyuan replied nonchalantly.
"Yeah yeah……"
Meng Shaoyuan saw the three people looking lost.
Wei Bingkuan asked tentatively: "Director Meng, where is this person? After all, he is the deputy director of the accounting department and knows many things in the bank, so do you think you can try to rescue him again?"
"If there is any big deal within the bank, if it's not just about funds, the Japanese special agency would have figured it out a long time ago."
Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Rescue is not that easy. Just to save Han Yanyun, I have already used a lot of manpower and material resources."
The three people stopped talking.
Meng Shaoyuan took a few puffs of cigarette and suddenly said: "Inspector Chief, I'm afraid you are not really trying to rescue Han Yanyun this time, are you?"
"Of course, of course." Wei Bingkuan was a little panicked: "This is a task specially assigned by the eldest lady. That is her classmate and friend."
"That's it."
Meng Shaoyuan sneered: "I have successfully completed the task you assigned me. I have other things to do. The three of you can take a rest here."
He stood up and was about to leave. Wei Bingkuan said hurriedly: "Director Meng..."
"That's enough!" Meng Shaoyuan raised his voice fiercely: "What are you doing in Shanghai? Chief Inspector, supervising the bloody battle in Shanghai's banking industry? Rescue Han Yanyun? Or do you have other special tasks?
Don't treat me like a fool. If you don't tell the truth, I can't help you with anything! "
Wei Bingkuan exchanged glances with Gu Xichen and Bei Zuyi, and then said: "Director Meng, please sit down, please sit down, I'll tell you."
Meng Shaoyuan sat down again.
Gu Xichen said at this time: "Director Meng, do you still remember that when we evacuated supplies, we had a batch of central bank reserves of 20 million silver dollars?"
Of course Meng Shaoyuan remembered.
In order to ensure safety, Meng Shaoyuan was ordered to assist in the evacuation of half of the reserve fund, 10 million silver dollars, which cost him a lot of manpower and material resources.
For this reason, Meng Shaoyuan also received awards from Chongqing.
"At the beginning, in order to allow the four banks to operate smoothly in Shanghai, we prepared a reserve of 20 million silver dollars." Gu Xichen said slowly:
"Reserves are essential and a prerequisite for maintaining the smooth operation of the bank. The sudden withdrawal of half of the funds will definitely have an impact on the bank, but do you know why we are not worried?"
"Do you still have some funds?"
Meng Shaoyuan blurted out.
"That's right." Gu Xichen said: "After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the Japanese showed their ambitions towards us. We also considered that the situation may change in the future. The four banks in Shanghai shoulder the important responsibility of maintaining the national finance and cannot have any problems.
Therefore, we held a secret meeting in Shanghai, which was attended by Minister Kong Xiangxi and Chairman Song Ziwen of Bank of China.
At the meeting, we considered all possible emergencies, including how the four Shanghai banks would operate if there were any problems with the central bank.
At the initiative of Chairman Song, the four banks in Shanghai each contributed two million silver dollars as secret reserve funds. This fund must be approved by the chairman of the four Shanghai banks at the same time before it can be used.
The people directly responsible for this fund are Minister Kong and Chairman Song, and the person responsible for keeping this huge amount of funds in Shanghai is the candidate jointly selected by Minister Kong and Chairman Song, Han Renchun! "
Meng Shaoyuan understood immediately: "Who is Han Renchun from Han Yanyun?"
"Father."
This time, it was Bei Zuyi who answered: "There are eight people in the custody team, all selected from thousands of people. I am the nominal team leader, and Han Renchun is the deputy team leader with specific responsibility.
In order to ensure that the secret of this fund would not be leaked, Han Renchun was solely responsible for everything. Only he knew where the eight million silver dollars were hidden.
They had been living in peace and harmony, but unfortunately, just last month, Han Renchun and the six team members he led were all killed! "
"What, all dead?"
