At this moment, Zhang Jianghe didn't know that Tang Cheng was telling lies with his eyes open, because after Zhang Jianghe left the military camp in the afternoon, the information he got from asking someone was similar to what Tang Cheng was telling now. Zhang Jianghe was accustomed to sitting in the military camp, and almost all the information related to the black market came from the reports of his team members. Moreover, Zhao Dashan and his team have been following Tang Cheng's instructions and dealing with most of the brokers and dealers in the black market, so many times, they jointly hide things related to the black market from Zhang Jianghe.
Under such circumstances, how could Zhang Jianghe know the true inside story of the black market? He also had no way of knowing whether what Tang Cheng was saying at this moment was true or false. Tang Cheng kept directing the topic towards the military commander, but Zhang Jianghe did not respond. When Tang Cheng looked at Zhang Jianghe, there was no hint of impatience or suspicion on his face, so he simply spoke bluntly. "Uncle, let me tell you the truth. I suspect that the batch of arms mentioned by the headquarters is probably false news!"
"Fake news? Impossible!" Zhang Jianghe had a calm look on his face when he heard this, because this news was told to him personally by the director. In the entire military system, the person who least wants the military commander's reputation to be tarnished is probably this bureau chief. Zhang Jianghe shook his head resolutely, but Tang Cheng was already angry. He couldn't figure out why Zhang Jianghe couldn't understand such a simple thing?
"Uncle, if you think about it carefully, why do the military commanders only know that a batch of arms has entered the city, but they don't have any relevant information? According to the habits of our search team, we can put this aside and ignore it first. So the question is, who informed the military commander about the arrival of this batch of arms into the city? Did the military commander find out about it himself? Or did someone deliberately pass it on to the military commander? The headquarters just gave you a task, but nothing. Tell you! Do you think this is strange?"
"You must have also inquired about the situation in the black market today, but you didn't find out anything, right? Then, here comes a new question. There are not many people in Chongqing who don't know about you, especially the people in the black market. ! Then why didn't they tell you the truth? Do they really not know? Or they don't dare to tell you?" Tang Cheng's continuous questions made Zhang Jianghe a little overwhelmed. When Tang Cheng's questions were connected together, Zhang Jianghe It was found that the spearhead of Tangcheng's words was directly directed at the military commander.
Talking too much will make your mouth dry. Looking at Zhang Jianghe's pensive look at this moment, Tang Cheng stopped talking, grabbed the teapot and teacup on the table, and poured himself a cup of herbal tea first. Tang Cheng, who felt slightly relieved after drinking a cup of herbal tea, continued, "To tell you the truth, what I just said is just to tell you that a batch of arms has indeed come to the city!" Tang Cheng's words just now When he landed, he saw that Zhang Jianghe, who had been bowing his head in deep thought, immediately became energetic and looked at him without blinking.
"It's true that a batch of arms has come to the black market, but I heard that this batch of arms came from the military, so many people in the black market just talked about it privately, but didn't dare to think about this batch of arms." Tang Cheng said while talking. Paying attention to Zhang Jianghe's reaction and seeing the suspicion gradually showing in Zhang Jianghe's eyes, Tang Cheng expressed his suspicion. "I suspect that the military commander knows that this batch of arms is related to the military. They leave this matter to us because they want us to take advantage of Lei, and then they will reap the benefits!"
Tang Cheng's words made Zhang Jianghe's expression gradually become serious. Military smuggling had been going on for a long time. Although Zhang Jianghe did not participate, he had heard about it. Among all the black market businesses currently, drugs, tobacco, and arms are the most profitable. How could the military commanders, who had been engaged in the smuggling business for a long time, ignore the arms business? Especially after the military commanders opened the Burma Highway, their smuggling business has reached a higher level. Zhang Jianghe was unable to refute Tang Cheng's words at this moment, because he knew very well that what Tang Cheng just said was probably the truth.
When Zhang Jianghe asked what he wanted to do, Tang Cheng chuckled, "Didn't I just say it all! We can't afford to offend the people over there, so we have to do it anyway! It's just that, Since the matter is entrusted to us, and we don’t have any clues at the moment, we need time to collect clues." After Tang Cheng said this, Zhang Jianghe finally understood, and Tang Cheng planned to use drag. This is the trick.
"Uncle, don't underestimate this word. As long as we are secretive enough, even the bureau will not find our trouble!" In order to give Zhang Jianghe a reassurance, Tang Cheng promised to do it as soon as possible. I asked someone for information, but Tang Cheng did not make a 100% guarantee. Before dinner, Zhang Jianghe received another call from the bureau chief's office. Fortunately, this call was not from the bureau chief himself to inquire about the situation. Zhang Jianghe patiently dealt with the bureau secretary on the other end of the phone.
For two days in a row, Tangcheng was in a state of chaos. Zhang Jianghe didn't even see Tangcheng in the military camp. Asking Zhao Dashan and the others, they couldn't figure out the reason. At noon on the third day, Zhang Jianghe, who had just had lunch, was making tea in his office. Tang Cheng, whom he hadn't seen for two days, finally came back. "You brat, you still know how to come back!" Looking at Tang Cheng who came in looking good, Zhang Jianghe's mood suddenly improved a little, and he was even more interested in joking with Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng was not polite and sat down opposite Zhang Jianghe. He took the tea cup that Zhang Jianghe pushed and drank it in one gulp. "Don't make fun of me for staying in the office! I've been very tired these past two days, so why don't you praise me?" Tang Cheng put down his tea cup and looked at him as if he was asking for rewards based on his merits. Zhang Jianghe. Zhang Jianghe laughed loudly at Wen Yan. Seeing Tang Cheng's appearance, he knew there must be good news.
Sure enough, Tang Cheng, whom he hadn't seen for two days, suddenly came back at this time and came to Zhang Jianghe with good news. "I've been asking people for help in the past two days. The batch of arms mentioned by the headquarters did come to Chongqing, but it did not enter the city. Instead, it was hidden in the countryside of Jiangbei. Our people only move in the city. , I may not be accustomed to the climate after going to Jiangbei, so I asked people from the garrison group for help, maybe at this time tomorrow, there will be news back."
The good news brought back by Tang Cheng made Zhang Jianghe's mood instantly improve, and the decadent energy in his body disappeared in an instant. Zhang Jianghe didn't know that Tang Cheng really didn't lie to him. A batch of arms of unknown origin did come to the Chongqing black market. Some people said that this batch of arms was related to the military, while others said that this batch of arms came from Chongqing by water. It is said to be from the Jianghuai area. But no matter how many opinions there are, this batch of arms did not enter the city, but was hidden in the countryside of Jiangbei.
Tang Cheng was able to find out the news about this batch of arms because he knew the robe brothers in the city. Although these robe brothers who had been hanging out in the black market all year round were not as powerful as Tang Cheng, their ability to find out information was far superior to Tang Cheng's. Arms of unknown origin appeared in the Chongqing black market. These buddies who relied on the black market to make a living were the first to know the news. It’s just that there are smart people among these robe buddies. When the situation was unclear, they just chose to wait and see. , rather than participating in it.
Having a piece of fat meat in front of you that you cannot eat is a great torture for people like them who are involved in the black market. Tangcheng happened to be looking for them at this time to inquire about information related to this batch of arms. The brother-in-law, who was interested but did not have the courage to participate, happened to reveal the inside story to Tangcheng. Zhang Jianghe, who got the news from Tangcheng, did not dare to waste time and immediately called the bureau office of the military command headquarters. After being called by Tangcheng, he also wanted to find out the bureau's purpose through this call.
Zhang Jianghe had a good reason for searching on the phone. He said that the search team still had several suspicious targets and that a large number of manpower was needed for surveillance. He suggested that the military command headquarters send manpower into the countryside of Jiangbei to trace the whereabouts of the batch of arms. Zhang Jianghe has never participated in factional fights in the military system. Especially after he was injured and lost an arm, he gave people a habit of doing things wisely and protectively, so his suggestions on the phone did not arouse the bureau's concern. pay attention.
The bureau chief who was far away at the military headquarters did not know that after Zhang Jianghe hung up the phone, he excused himself to go home and left the military camp. An hour later, Zhang Jianghe appeared alone in a tavern at the end of a small street. This tavern is a secret stronghold of the underground party organization. Its only mission is to serve as a liaison with Zhang Jianghe, and the underground party members in the tavern will not have direct contact with the Chongqing underground party organization. .
Zhang Jianghe's appearance did not make the atmosphere in the tavern abnormal. Neither the tavern owner nor a few scattered drinkers showed attention to Zhang Jianghe. After secretly looking at the tavern owner, Zhang Jianghe ordered the third child as usual, and then sat quietly in the corner of the tavern, pouring and drinking, looking very leisurely and contented. The tavern is not large, and the people who come here are all repeat customers, and Zhang Jianghe is one of them.
Zhang Jianghe had only drank half of the three ounces of wine he asked for, and the previous drinkers in the tavern had already left one after another. The tavern owner, who had been paying attention to Zhang Jianghe, sat down opposite Zhang Jianghe with a plate of braised food. "The Military Command Headquarters is tracing a batch of arms. The quantity of the arms is unknown, and the source is also unclear. However, I have traced the whereabouts of the arms. Please hurry up and ask your superiors for instructions. We may be able to fish in troubled waters and eat this batch of arms!"
Tang Cheng had been talking about cheating in front of Zhang Jianghe. When Zhang Jianghe learned the whereabouts of the arms, he couldn't help but want to fish in troubled waters and eat these arms. Although the quantity and exact location of this batch of arms is not yet known, Zhang Jianghe believes that as long as Tangcheng is willing to contribute, it will definitely be difficult to find out the exact location of the arms.
