"Are the goods ready?"
Master Senpo (Ma Xiaoguang) asked with a rare and solemn expression.
"It's all done. I'm all watching. Either I did it myself, or I supervised it myself... You know, there are some things that one person can't do."
Brother Guishou also said in a solemn and respectful tone.
"That's good. The goods must be taken care of. The agents of the Neon Kingdom are keeping an eye on these treasures."
Seeing Brother Guishou change his usual slick and profiteer demeanor and act seriously, Master Senpo knew that he and his team must be working very seriously, and felt relieved a lot.
Seeing the smile on Master Senpo's face, Brother Guishou also felt relieved.
The two of them did this because the matter was too important and required a lot of energy and skill.
Even though Brother Guishou's skills were superb, he was still so tired that his eyes were blurred, his waist and back ached, and he felt like he had aged ten years for most of the year.
"Okay, I'm sorry, you must have been working really hard these past six months. It's almost the Chinese New Year, so take a break."
Master Senpo said with a smile while taking out a thick envelope from the drawer.
Brother Guishou took the envelope, twisted it with his hand and was startled, and said: "Miss Liu has already paid the New Year expenses and profit, this..."
"This is my idea. You old man must have figured it out. They are all US dollars. Legal currency does not maintain its value these days, so save some US dollars."
Master Senpo said meaningfully.
"We brothers are not following the young master just for money."
"I know, just because you don't care, doesn't mean I don't express my feelings. Just keep it with peace of mind."
After some sincere advice and persuasion, Brother Guishou carefully collected the envelope.
"Master, do you want to go take a look at the goods?"
"It won't work in the next few days. It will have to wait until the day after tomorrow. When a batch of goods from Beautiful Country is collected the day after tomorrow, we will go together."
"You should get these things done in the office in the next few days."
Master Senpo began to discuss work with Brother Guishou.
The two people talked about everything in detail, from office decoration to furniture purchase, from staff recruitment to manuscript printing.
Just as he was getting into his words, there was a knock on the office door.
It was Natasha who knocked on the door and came in.
"Master, the transfer between Fatty and Charlie has been completed. Tomorrow, the people from Matheson will go to Shiliupu Wharf to pick up today's batch of goods."
"Very good, thank you for your hard work... Well, there is something I need from you."
When Master Senpo saw her, the big-haired beauty's eyes suddenly lit up and he said to her with a smile.
When Natasha heard this, a rare blush appeared on her face, and she said shyly: "Mr. Sun is still here..."
When Master Senpo heard this, he rolled his eyes. He accidentally said the wrong thing again.
"Ahem, I'm serious. There is a work matter. To be precise, Brother Guishou needs you!"
Master Senpo coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and quickly explained.
This must be explained!
If the big-haired beauty misunderstands her and spreads her story to the head of the family, she will probably have a hard time in the future.
"You men are all heartless!"
Natasha said sadly when she heard this, and her tone made Master Senpo feel a little familiar.
For a moment, the air in the office was a little weird. Luckily for Master Senpo, he was thick-skinned, so it didn't matter. Brother Guishou was a little embarrassed.
As luck would have it, there was a heavy knock on the door, and Master Senpo's great savior, Fatty, came back.
"The house has been found. It's on Albert Road in the French Concession." The fat man came in excitedly and said.
As soon as the fat man arrived, the atmosphere in the office became less solemn and became more lively.
"Hey, Lao Sun, are you done with your errand?"
The fat man said hello to Brother Guishou carelessly.
"Thanks to you, Fatty, everything goes well!"
Brother Guishou said anxiously, seeing that he was more afraid of the fat man than Master Senpo, which made Natasha a little confused.
"It used to be a foreign trade company there, and it has office furniture, although it's a bit old and can be used."
The fat man didn't talk too much and turned around to report on his work.
Seeing that the fat man was really talking about business, Natasha was about to turn around and leave the office. The big-haired beauty could still distinguish the seriousness of the matter.
"No, no, Natasha, you're right here, it's just a good time to take a closer look."
Master Senpo quickly stopped Natasha.
The four of them continued in the office, discussing the plan and details of the next action.
The next day, only the last batch of arms was left, which Kevin purchased in the name of Lihe Matheson.
This time, Master Senpo did not blindly throw away money.
A few sharp guns like the Chicago Typewriter are enough, mainly for performing special tasks.
What I purchased this time was mainly beautiful country radio stations, body armor, some secret agent gadgets, and even some food - vacuum-packed compressed biscuits, canned beef, and many logistical equipment...
There are many reasons for the high force value of the beautiful country. One of the most important ones is its strong logistics.
As for individual weapons, especially in terms of firepower output, Master Senpo is not prepared to buy too many from the beautiful country. The ones from the Hans country are easier to use than those from the Hans country.
The key point is that Master Senpo knows the general trend of history. In the future, the equipment of the beautiful country can be purchased and replaced at any time, but the equipment of the Hans country is not guaranteed.
As for the special weapons that Fatty obtained from Boss Zou of the Pacific Trading Company, they were prepared for future surprise attacks.
In head-to-head combat, the most mass-produced standard weapon is the way to go.
There are no twists and turns in the receipt of goods in Meimeiguo. After payment is made, Charlie Cao (Cao Mu) is responsible for escorting them to the warehouse.
Young Master Senpo took Fatty, Brother Guishou and Natasha in a Buick and swaggered to the office rented by Fatty on Albert Road in the French Concession.
"Well, not bad, it's bright, spacious, and stylish. Fatty did a good job!"
Master Senpo praised while looking at the beautiful furniture and furnishings in the office.
"This is a bankrupt Belgian company, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so the house is not easy to sell, so I happened to hit it. I signed a one-year contract and paid the rent for three months." The fat man replied with a smile.
"There's no need to be so picky and instigative. Just pay it for a year or half a year. After a while, the rent in the concession will also increase. At the worst, the brand will be changed after this payment is completed."
Young Master Senpo is now rich, and his words are very tough.
"This is great, there is a yard at the back, a basement, and a warehouse. You don't even need to rent a warehouse!"
Brother Guishou also praised him.
Seeing the looks of the three of them, Natasha knew that Master Senpo was doing something important, but she remained obedient and remained silent.
"Okay, Natasha, you take the bus back to Aurous Hill in the evening. Charlie will personally transport a batch of things back. Just take a ride. When you get back, go to MISS Liu immediately. She will explain the key points of the mission to you and give you Certificate.”
"After you get the certificate, you immediately take the train back to Shanghai and check into the International Hotel..."
Master Senpo turned his head and began to assign Natasha her tasks.
Natasha listened carefully and wrote down every word.
After looking at the house and driving Natasha back to her residence, Master Senpo and the three of them started wandering around again.
It's not appropriate to call it loitering. According to the lady, it's shopping.
From large vases to table lamps, from safes to feather dusters...
In short, there is a huge pile of messy things, new and old.
"Master, this shopping is so tiring!"
On the way back to the car, Fatty complained while driving.
"Do you understand now? When you are attracted by a female agent in the future, you will be even worse!" Master Senpo said to the fat man with a smile.
"Forget it, I'll leave the female spy to your old man." The fat man's expression changed after hearing this, and he shook his head like a rattle.
"Oh, I really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when I'm not a family member!" Brother Guishou also sighed at the side.
The three of them chatted and laughed all the way back to the safe house on Fuxi Road in the French Concession.
"Okay, everything is fully prepared. Have Shopkeeper Luo and Agui arrived?"
After entering the house, Master Senpo asked Brother Guishou.
"They must have arrived, but this time the matter is very important, and the safe house cannot be exposed easily, so they are not staying here. They are probably with the cargo."
Brother Guishou said to Master Senpo in a deep voice.
"Thank you for your hard work. In this way, tomorrow morning, the brothers from Jinling who came to support will arrive, and the platform of this unit will be set up." Master Senpo said with satisfaction.
"I won't go to the foreign company tomorrow. I will replace my junior brother and let him take charge of the overall situation. I will go and move things in with Agui today." Brother Guishou thought for a moment and replied.
Young Master Senpo smiled and said to Brother Guishou: "Everyone has his or her own strengths, so I'll do as you say. This time you and Shopkeeper Luo are the protagonists, and we are all supporting players."
In the afternoon of the next day, Master Senpo and the fat man were no longer dressed in dresses, but in navy blue tunic suits.
Fortunately for Master Senpo, he was already a talented person, but he looked presentable after putting it on.
The fat man's clothes obviously didn't fit him, and his fat belly made him look like a corrupt official.
"Master, isn't this too fake?"
The fat man couldn't help but asked anxiously.
"It's easy to do. Put on a mustache and a pair of glasses, and you look like a standard government official. If it's fake, I'm not the young master this time, I'm Secretary Pony, and you're Commissioner Yang!"
As Master Senpo said this, he found props and began to perfect the details for Fatty.
After packing up, the two did not drive, but took a taxi that Charlie Cao had reserved for them.
Twenty minutes later, we arrived at Albert Road.
After getting off the car at the intersection, he changed his usual rules. This time it was the fat man - ah no, Commissioner Yang in front and Secretary Pony in the back, swaggering towards the office.
However, in the eyes of Shanghai's trendy people, Commissioner Yang is obviously a bit rustic and looks like he has never seen the world.
Walking to a small department store on the side of the road, Commissioner Yang did not say anything, but arrogantly gestured to Secretary Ma.
Secretary Xiao Ma quickly smiled politely at the shop owner and asked, "Sir, could I please ask, where is the Shanghai office of the Palace Museum?"
