From the moment he got up, Tang Cheng felt that the day was not going well. At this moment, he suddenly met two people who interested him, so Tang Cheng planned to stay in this cafe for a while. After eavesdropping on the conversation between the two people behind him, Tang Cheng finally figured out what the foreign man and woman behind him were talking about, and also had a general understanding of their identities.
The foreign man who was back to back with Tangcheng was called Mike. He was a businessman from the United States. He had done almost any business that could make money, including tobacco and arms business. This time it was because his father in the United States was seriously ill and hospitalized, and his family wanted him to return to the United States immediately. However, he had a batch of trauma medicines in his hand and had to find a new home to take over. The woman sitting opposite him is named Margaret. It is said that this woman is from England, but I don't know how she got involved with the Japanese.
Trauma drugs are in short supply, so even if his family members in the United States continue to urge, Mike does not want to sell them at a low price. But this British woman named Margaret insisted on the price. This price was a bit difficult for Mike to accept. Tang Cheng sipped his coffee and listened carefully to the conversation between the two people behind him. As time went by, Tang Cheng became more and more confused. Why were these two people just arguing about the price? There seemed to be something wrong!
When Tang Cheng was suspicious, he saw a brown-haired man in a plaid suit getting up and walking over. After more than ten seconds, Tang Cheng figured out the identity of the man in the plaid suit. The man in the plaid suit was an Italian businessman. He was originally planning to meet someone in this cafe, but he accidentally overheard Mike and Margaret's conversation, so he came over familiarly, hoping to get a piece of the pie.
Tang Cheng, who had been eavesdropping on this moment, finally suddenly realized that after the Italian appeared, the man and woman behind him immediately changed their conversation style. Tang Cheng suddenly felt that the man and woman were dancing in the same way as the immortals. Tang Cheng suppressed his laughter and continued to eavesdrop on the conversation of the three people quietly. He waited for the American named Mike to stand up. Then Tang Cheng took out the banknotes from his pocket and threw them on the table. He grabbed the three People walked out of the cafe before.
After walking out of the cafe, Tang Cheng suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have anywhere to go. Going back to his residence at this time might only provoke Zhang Jianghe's questioning, not to mention that Tang Cheng was afraid to face Zhou Hongzhuang at the moment. Tang Cheng was standing on the street, dazed, when two men and a woman in the cafe passed by Tang Cheng, and Tang Cheng vaguely heard the woman named Margaret speaking in English about warehouses, inspecting goods, etc. of words.
Since there is nowhere to go for the time being, it is better to follow and watch the excitement. Tang Cheng's frown slightly relaxed, and then he used his skills to target the American named Mike and followed the three of them from a distance. The three people walking in front of Tangcheng obviously did not expect to be followed behind them. It was not a very wise thing to follow foreigners in the concession. Tang Cheng blended in with the crowd, following the three people in front of him and walking aimlessly. He waited until the three of them walked into a small building on the street. Only then did Tang Cheng suddenly realize that the arms dealer named Henry used to live in this street. inside.
From this, Tang Cheng came to the conclusion that the American named Mike and the British woman were together, and that the Italian was the target of their trap. Tang Cheng did not enter the small building on the street, but waited quietly on the other side of the street, waiting for the Italian to be sent out by Mike with a smile on his face. Watching the conversation between the two from a distance, Tang Cheng guessed that the silly Italian must have seen some of the goods. According to the scammer's steps, it was time for the man and woman to transfer the goods.
Sure enough, after watching the Italian disappear around the corner, the American Mike immediately returned to the small building. When he and the British woman came out of the small building again, each of them was holding a heavy-looking leather bag in their hands. box. Tang Cheng, who saw this scene across the street, secretly smacked his lips. If the suitcases in these two hands were filled with trauma medicine, it would be worth a lot of money.
What is strange is that this foreign man and woman were standing on the street with their suitcases, but they chose to take the tram instead of taking a rickshaw. Without hesitation, Tang Cheng also jumped on the tram. Dressed like a kid from a rich family and squeezing into the tram, he attracted more attention than the foreign couple. The foreign man and woman carrying the suitcase did not realize that Tang Cheng was following them, and they did not realize that Tang Cheng actually followed them all the way into the hotel.
"I know that there is a batch of trauma medicine. Are you underground party interested?" After confirming the residence of the foreign man and woman, Tang Cheng immediately called a rickshaw and rushed back to his residence. He called Zhou Hongzhuang to the study and told him that he had accidentally discovered it. Zhou Hongzhuang was told about the trauma medicine. "Drugs in the black market are getting more and more expensive, and most of the drugs traded on the black market will be monitored by the Intelligence Department and the Special Higher Education Division. If you can take this batch of drugs, your underground party will definitely not suffer."
Tang Cheng's attitude made Zhou Hongzhuang secretly surprised. This person seemed to wish he could get out early last night. After just one night, he seemed to be a different person. "I have to contact my superior first. I have never been involved in this kind of thing before. It mainly depends on the superior's decision." Zhou Hongzhuang did not dare to agree immediately, but said that she would still ask her superior for instructions.
At this time, Tang Cheng did not expect that Zhou Hongzhuang, whom he mistakenly thought was the backbone of the Shanghai underground party, was actually not a member of the Shanghai underground party. After accompanying Zhou Hongzhuang out and finding a phone booth to make a call, all that was left was to wait patiently, but Zhou Hongzhuang was a little worried that the foreign couple would leave the hotel early. While Zhou Hongzhuang was waiting anxiously, the call from her superior finally came. Just like Zhou Hongzhuang's previous reaction, her superior also did not expect that Tang Cheng would give such a big gift.
The Shanghai underground party organization agreed in principle to take over this batch of trauma drugs, but they did not agree with Tang Cheng's idea of gangsterism. They were mainly worried that it would cause the concession's Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau to misunderstand the underground party. "The problem is, I don't want to spend more money but also want to get benefits. Where in the world can such good things happen! Just tell me what you think? If you want that batch of medicine, I will get it for you. If you don't want it, I will get it for you." , then I'll go back and sleep." Tang Cheng immediately showed his true nature as a bachelor, and acted out his responsibility in front of Zhou Hongzhuang.
Zhou Hongzhuang was in a dilemma. Having traveled around the world for a long time, she knew how rare trauma medications were, especially in the black market in Shanghai, where trauma medications had been priced at very high prices. Now there is an opportunity to obtain a large amount of trauma medicine, but the superiors have not made a decision, and Zhou Hongzhuang is secretly anxious. No matter in later generations or now, Tang Cheng was someone who hated seeing women cry. Seeing Zhou Hongzhuang's eyes reddened because of worry, Tang Cheng had no choice but to compromise.
"Forget it, you go home and wait. I will take care of this matter without using the name of your underground party." Tang Cheng called a rickshaw on the street and took the reluctant Zhou Hongzhuang. After returning to his residence, he went straight to Hans to borrow a car, and then rushed to the hotel where the foreign couple lived. Facts have proved that Zhou Hongzhuang's worries were unnecessary. The foreign man and woman would not leave the hotel easily until the prey was completely trapped, because they had to face the prey visiting their door at any time.
By spending a few small denominations of U.S. dollars, Tang Cheng obtained the information he needed from the front desk of the hotel. Knowing that the foreign man and woman pretending to be business rivals lived in two rooms on the second and third floors of the hotel, Tang Cheng opened a room on the second floor of the hotel and planned to stay in the hotel to take advantage of the opportunity. Time passed little by little while waiting, and it was not until it was almost time for dinner that Tang Cheng, who was hiding in the room, suddenly heard the door diagonally opposite open, and then the voice of someone speaking.
Tang Cheng's door was not closed tightly, but there was a slight gap left. So when Tang Cheng heard the sound of the door opening, he looked out through the crack in the door and happened to see the British woman who lived on the third floor standing at the moment. Outside Mike's door. Seeing the two people in coats closing the door and leaving, I guessed that the two of them were going to Tangcheng where they had finished their meal. After they disappeared around the corner of the stairs, they went out of the room directly and used their homemade ****. Then open Mike's door.
In the afternoon, Tang Cheng saw the suitcase that Mike was carrying, which was placed under the coffee table in the room. Tang Cheng just opened the suitcase and took a look, then left the room with the suitcase. A few minutes later, Tang Cheng appeared on the third floor of the hotel. When he returned to the second floor, Tang Cheng already had a suitcase in his hand. The two boxes contained trauma medicines. Even if Tang Cheng only took the medicines in the boxes, the weight would have already exceeded the weight of the carry-on equipment bag.
So Tang Cheng pretended to go out to buy cigarettes or newspapers, and went back and forth to the hotel many times empty-handed. When no one expected, he used his personal equipment bag to collect all the medicines in the two boxes. He quietly moved to the car borrowed from Hans. If it had been before, Tang Cheng would have definitely stayed and waited to see what the foreign man and woman would do after they lost their medicine.
But now, he was anxious to return to his residence. There were several kinds of medicines in the two boxes. Although Tang Cheng didn't know much about the trauma medicine market, he believed that Zhang Jianghe could definitely answer his questions. Only after starting the car and leaving the street, Tang Cheng suddenly remembered something. Zhou Hongzhuang cried in the street last night because all the contact points of the Shanghai underground party suddenly evacuated. She thought she had completely lost contact with the underground party.
But when he said that he had found a batch of medicines in the afternoon, Zhou Hongzhuang easily contacted the superiors of the underground party by phone. At this moment, Tang Cheng suddenly remembered that he seemed to have overlooked some details. Thinking about the abnormal behavior of the men in black he met last night, Tang Cheng immediately realized that he was being tricked.
