Qiu He, whose pseudonym is Wang Haishan, is an authentic Chinese, but his father married a Japanese woman during his second marriage, so when Qiu He was 21 years old, he was sent to Japan to study. Qiu He's father was engaged in the grain business outside the customs, so his family was not short of money. When Qiu He went to Japan, he played every night. However, in his third year of studying abroad, his family sent someone to deliver bad news. Qiu He's father encountered bandits. After the family paid the ransom, the bandits betrayed their trust and tore up the ticket.

After his father passed away and his family's business suffered a huge loss, Qiu He, who was in Japan, gradually found it difficult to maintain the lively life he had lived before. It was at this time that the Black Dragon Society approached him. After being recommended by the Black Dragon Society, Qiu He joined the Extra-High School Course and received training in Japan. After the war in Wuhan, Qiu He received orders from his superiors and went south to Chongqing to lurk. Because the operatives of the Special High School Course lurking in Chongqing were exposed one after another, Qiu He's superiors never took the initiative to contact him.

In this way, Qiu He went deep into Chongqing. It was not until half a month ago that someone found Qiu He with a joint token. Qiu He, who usually doesn't talk much, has been working in this trading house for more than two years. After being awakened by his contact, he suddenly discovered that there were companions who were also performing lurking tasks in the trading house where he worked. . But what he didn't expect even more was that when he received the mission, he found out that the trading house was being targeted.

In desperation, he could only leave alone, but at the same time he understood that the tasks assigned by his superiors must also be completed. Qiu He had long been accustomed to working alone, and the mission assigned was only a sabotage operation, so Qiu He felt that he could complete the task alone. Qiu He, who had escaped from his opponent's pursuit, couldn't help but feel a little proud. It was this pride that made him trust Deputy Commander Huang and finally fell into the hands of Tang Cheng.

After such a tortuous process, the bureau chiefs couldn't help but secretly smack their lips, especially when the bureau chief listened to Tang Cheng explain the true identity of Qiu He, a look of solemnity could not help but appear on his expression. "Leader, I'm not blabbering. Qiu He's experience is the best explanation. There are many people in the government who have studied in Japan. I'm not saying that those who studied in Japan are bad people, but the chance of them defecting to the enemy and rebelling is too high. Big! Faced with the corruption and attraction of money and beautiful women, it is difficult for people who have never truly endured hardship to refuse this method!"

The last words of Tang Cheng immediately caused the bureau chief and Zhang Jianghe to glare at him, because they all knew how many people in the government had studied in Japan. If one goes by what Tang Cheng said and secretly observed all the people in the government who studied in Japan, the manpower of the military command is simply not enough. But Tang Cheng's words still attracted the attention of the bureau chief. After all, many of the traitors caught by the military had studied in Japan.

Qiu He was handed over to the Second Military Reunification Division, and Tang Cheng was now completely freed from this case. However, before he could completely relax, the Bureau assigned him another task. "Don't worry about the opium dens in the city. These people have backers behind them. I am the meanest and most annoyed about this matter. Jiangbei has been a bit uneasy recently. People from the Second Division discovered that a new black market seems to have been opened in Jiangbei. , you send someone to check. If you find any contraband, just raid that black market, don’t be afraid of trouble!"

The bureau chief's words made Tang Cheng feel happy. If the black market was stolen, it would mean a large sum of money. The bureau chief was taking the initiative to give benefits to the action team! When Zhang Jianghe and Zhang Jianghe drove away from the headquarters compound, Tang Cheng still had a thick smile on his face. Zhang Jianghe couldn't hold it back and reached out to hit Tang Cheng on the head. "The director wants you to investigate the black market in Jiangbei. He doesn't want you to take advantage of the opportunity to line your own pockets. You kid, don't be ignorant!" Zhang Jianghe's kind reminder made Tang Cheng confused.

"That's not right! You were also present when the bureau chief explained the matter just now! The bureau chief clearly said that if contraband is found in the Jiangbei black market, I will ask me to confiscate the Jiangbei black market! It's not like you haven't been to the black market in the city. , how can there be no contraband in the black market!" Enduring the pain on his forehead, Tang Cheng glared and stubbornly believed that the bureau's intention was to lead the action team to confiscate the Jiangbei black market, otherwise the bureau would not be able to I'll tell you that.

Zhang Jianghe was familiar with Tang Cheng's stubbornness. Seeing that Tang Cheng was in over his head, Zhang Jianghe stopped trying to persuade him. Anyway, with the approval of the bureau chief, confiscating the black market was not a big deal. But after Tang Cheng returned to the military camp, he immediately sent someone to invite several leaders of the garrison. In his office, behind closed doors, he discussed with these leaders of the garrison about confiscating the black market in Jiangbei. "Everyone, what I just said is the exact words of the bureau chief! As soon as we find contraband in Jiangbei Black Market, we will directly raid Jiangbei Black Market!"

Tang Cheng said this calmly, but the words "as long as" and "contraband" were heavily emphasized. Everyone present was not an idiot, and immediately understood what Tang Cheng meant, especially Deputy Captain Huang, who was familiar with Tang Cheng, and grinned. "Brother, don't worry, even if there are no contraband in Jiangbei's black market, we can still make contraband appear in Jiangbei's black market." What Deputy Captain Huang said was very excessive, but Tang Cheng and others burst into laughter.

Tang Cheng took the initiative to involve the garrison in this matter. Deputy Commander Huang and the others knew in their hearts that this was Tang Cheng's response to thank Deputy Commander Huang for catching the Japanese spy. They all knew that there might be trouble in confiscating the black market in Jiangbei, but it also involved the military command, so they had nothing to fear. As the old saying goes, if the sky falls, the tall man will hold it up, and now the military commander is the tall man.

The entire garrison team was local and familiar with the situation in Jiangbei. After learning about Tangcheng's plan, the garrison team immediately sent people into Jiangbei and began to investigate the situation in Jiangbei's black market. Two days later, when all the news was gathered here in Tangcheng, they suddenly discovered that the black market in Jiangbei was as busy as the black market in the city. Moreover, there are a lot of contraband items that Tangcheng is worried about in the black market in Jiangbei. Now there is no need for Deputy Commander Huang to find someone to play frame-up tricks.

After investigating all the circumstances, Tang Cheng did not act rashly, and took the initiative to find the bureau chief and explain the situation to the other party. "This is the situation now. The situation in Jiangbei's black market is far more troublesome than the black market in the city. Although the Liu family's influence is not as strong as it used to be, I am still worried that there will be big trouble!" Tang Cheng took the initiative to find the bureau chief. The biggest reason for explaining the situation is that the people from the garrison discovered that the biggest backer behind the Jiangbei black market was the Liu family.

Although after Liu Xiang's death, the Liu family's influence in Sichuan was not as good as before, no one would deliberately seek trouble for the Liu family. After all, the Liu family had been in charge of Sichuan for many years and had many old friends and subordinates. When the bureau chief heard this, he showed an indifferent expression, "I said, you don't need to worry about other things. As long as you find contraband in Jiangbei's black market, you will take someone to steal it. As long as the evidence is conclusive , It doesn’t matter who comes, just go ahead and do it!”

The director acted so calmly that Tang Cheng couldn't help but feel suspicious. After thinking about it for a while, Tang Cheng suddenly understood. To say who is most afraid of the Liu family, it is the one who lives in the Nan'an Villa. When Tang Cheng thinks about the attitude of the bureau chief at this moment, he finally understands that this matter should be the instruction of the person in the Nan'an Villa. Since it was that person's instruction, the last worry in Tang Cheng's heart immediately disappeared. No matter how powerful the Liu family was, they probably couldn't defeat the person in the Nan'an Villa.

After clarifying the bureau's attitude, Tangcheng once again convened the leaders of the garrison and began to discuss the action plan behind closed doors. Zhang Jianghe is the special commissioner of the military command stationed in the action team, and he is also an elder in Tangcheng, so he also attended the discussion of the action plan. In fact, Zhang Jianghe didn't know that he was deliberately called by Tang Cheng, because Tang Cheng was worried that underground party members were involved in Jiangbei's black market. If someone accidentally caught an underground party member, it would be difficult to deal with.

Tang Cheng, who was accustomed to getting straight to the point, directly stated his plan of action. After a few low-pitched discussions, the members of the garrison group all supported Tang Cheng's plan. Only Zhang Jianghe put forward his own opinions. "Our purpose this time is just to check the black market. Those who can resell contraband in the black market cannot have a backer behind them. We are looking for money, not to cause trouble, so we only deal with the goods. People. Even if people come to our door then, we will have a reason to explain."

In front of the leaders of the garrison, it was impossible for Tang Cheng to explain his words too clearly, but looking at Zhang Jianghe's reaction, it was obvious that he understood what Tang Cheng meant. After the meeting at noon, Zhang Jianghe, who excused himself to go home, went to the tavern at the entrance of the small street and told the tavern owner that Tangcheng and the garrison team were about to confiscate the Jiangbei black market. The owner of the tavern did not dare to neglect, and immediately arranged for a traffic officer to go to Jiangbei, and secretly notified his own people who were hanging around in the black market in Jiangbei to evacuate quietly.

That night, most of the action team's men, together with the troops mobilized from the garrison, quietly went to Jiangbei. In one night, they arrested more than 30 people in Tangcheng based on the information they had previously learned. Among the more than 30 people captured by Tangcheng and others, most were black market dealers reselling contraband, and the rest were related to reselling cigarettes.

As the confessions came out one after another, the people from the garrison began to search their secret warehouses in Jiangbei based on the confessions of these black marketeers. Deputy Captain Huang and others, who had already fallen into the eyes of Qian, were so happy that they could see their throats. The warehouses of so many black marketeers were put together, and the materials inside were quite a fortune. What's more, the action team also followed the instructions of a black marketeer and caught two Japanese spies who were wandering in the black market.
