Fang Lang was just angry. He had not lost his mind. Although his men could ensure that he could kill the other party, the other party was actually a formal Portuguese officer.
If they were really found to have done it, it might cause a diplomatic conflict between Brazil and Portugal, or even lead to the risk of war, which Fang Lang didn't want to see.
What's more, there are many ways to deal with the other party, and it is obviously unwise to do it now. It's too easy for people to find out about you. After all, the person died just after he rejected your solicitation. Even a fool knows there is something wrong here.
In addition, he could not guarantee that after the death of this officer, the next successor would be able to be used by them. Therefore, he directly shook his head and denied Qi Qingshan's idea.
"Immediately activate our relationship and quietly investigate how many people are there in the Portuguese troops stationed in Haojiang? Who is this top commander? Who else is there besides him? Who among these people can be won over? ?I need complete information!”
Qi Qingshan couldn't help but be startled when he heard Fang Lang's words, but he immediately realized that Fang Lang was preparing to personally participate in this matter!
"Yes, they should have collected this information a long time ago. I will contact Uncle Shui's people immediately and ask them to send it over."
After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave quickly.
But Fang Lang seemed to have thought of something, and waved his hand to stop him:
"Wait a minute, Uncle Shui's people are not professionals after all, and they are certainly not professional enough in collecting military intelligence in Haojiang. You can talk to Officer Zeng John and see if you can gain anything."
As Fang Lang's adjutant, Qi Qingshan already knew the identity of John Zeng last time. As soon as he heard what Fang Lang meant, he understood that Fang Lang wanted to use the intelligence channels in his hometown.
Hearing this, without hesitation, he saluted with a military salute and turned to leave.
"Yes, boss!"
After Qi Qingshan left, Fang Lang turned around and walked to the window. He looked at the sea view outside the window of the Peninsula Hotel and fell into deep thought.
It didn't matter to him who the Portuguese garrison commander in Haojiang was, and he didn't even care about the smuggling channel in Haojiang, but the Portuguese officers' attitude towards the Chinese made him very dissatisfied.
They didn't even think about it. If their hometown didn't still need them as a window to the outside world, it would be effortless for the army to regain Macau.
But now, his hometown's tolerant attitude towards them has obviously caused him some misunderstanding, and he thinks that his hometown is afraid of them and dares to look down on the Chinese.
A small country with a bigger bean, in the twentieth century, is still immersed in its past glory and unable to extricate itself. This is a typical Yelang arrogance, and Fang Lang feels that it is necessary to teach him how to behave.
Now Fang Lang's attitude towards the Haojiang channel for selling goods is very clear. I don't have to use the channel, but I must control it in my own hands. Either you Portuguese lobster soldiers will be obedient, or I will replace you with someone who is obedient.
As for those who take advantage of themselves and are disobedient, then I am embarrassed! The Fang family's money is not so easy to collect.
In actual history, the Portuguese soldiers in Haojiang were also very disgusting. When the Peninsula War was in full swing, they took the initiative to provoke and attacked the border guard station in their hometown many times, even causing casualties.
What's even more annoying is that at that time, my hometown was at war with the United Nations forces on the peninsula, and Portugal was not included in it! I don’t know what these people were thinking at the time.
However, Qi Qingshan did not delay after receiving Fang Lang's order. He arranged for someone to contact Hong Yi Tang's people in Haojiang and drove directly to the Central Police Station in Hong Kong City.
At this time, John Tsang was still working at the Central Police Station, but his position was no longer what it used to be. Overnight, he went from a small uniformed police officer to a plainclothes detective of the Criminal Investigation Division with the rank of police sergeant.
Moreover, he won the trust of Chief Inspector Yao Mu and British Superintendent Nottingham Jones. More importantly, everyone heard about British Navy Lieutenant Colonel Earnhardt Henderson and personally recommended him to the Hong Kong Governor to join. News from the Hong Kong Governor’s security team.
This is an unprecedented thing for the entire Chinese police group. Anyone who is not blind can understand that the other party is about to become famous.
In addition, his police rank is the same as that of Chief Inspector Zeng. Therefore, John Tsang is now a well-known fried chicken in the Central Police Station. Almost every Chinese police officer in the police station knows this young man.
Because Qi Qingshan took the Star Ferry from Tsim Sha Tsui to Central, he did not drive, but hailed a rickshaw, which was the most popular at this time in Central.
When I arrived at the Central Police Station and told the police officer at the police station door that I wanted to see John Tsang, the red-headed Ah San at the door couldn't help but question him. He seemed to be a celebrity for a Chinese like him who came to the police station to see them. The purpose of the chicken is doubtful.
Fortunately, Qi Qingshan was very well-dressed and did not look like a low-class commoner. Red-headed Asan did not dare to embarrass Qi Qingshan too much and dialed John Zeng's number at the police station.
John Zeng and Qi Qingshan met twice, but he didn't know Qi Qingshan's name, so Qi Qingshan directly told the red-headed Ah San at the door that he was John Zeng's old acquaintance on Stanley Street.
What happened on Stanley Street in Central was almost a major turning point in John Tsang's police work. Therefore, as soon as he heard the name of this place, he immediately made some guesses. He ran quickly without stopping at all.
When he arrived at the door of the police station and saw the young man standing at the door, his eyes froze and he thought so. But there was no abnormality on his face. He took two quick steps and came to Qi Qingshan. After saluting, he extended his right hand to the other party.
Because he didn’t know Qi Qingshan’s life, he could only say with a smile on his face:
"Hello! Nice to see you again!"
Qi Qingshan saw this brave young man from a distance, and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily. Although he didn't understand why Fang Lang was so close to the new regime in his hometown, as Fang Lang's adjutant, plus the Chinese Identity, I have a natural sense of identification with the Chinese.
In addition, when he first met the other party, he had a good impression of him because of his bravery. Later, when Fang Lang secretly met with representatives from his hometown, he saw the other party appear as a peripheral guard, and he understood that the other party actually had The dual identity made Qi Qingshan like him even more.
It's not because he approves of the new regime in his hometown. It's simply because John Zeng is a Chinese who works lurking in the old British colonies. This shows that the other party belongs to the Chinese side, and he will naturally appreciate it more.
Seeing the other person greeting him with a smile on his face, he also smiled slightly, stretched out his right hand and shook it hard with the other person.
"Hello! Nice to see you again! I'm so sorry that I didn't have time to introduce myself last time!
I am Lieutenant Colonel Qi Qingshan of the Brazilian Navy, and I currently serve as the aide-de-camp to General Fang Lang, Commander-in-Chief of the Aircraft Carrier Battle Group in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. "
Hearing Qi Qingshan's introduction, John Zeng was also surprised. He did not expect that this young man who looked inconspicuous was also a naval lieutenant colonel. He quickly and enthusiastically grasped the other person's outstretched right hand with both hands, shook it vigorously up and down and said:
"I'm John Zeng. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you! I don't know if you came to see me specifically this time. Do you need my help with anything?
If so, please feel free to ask, I will never refuse. "
The two red-headed Asans at the door of the police station heard the conversation between the two and looked sideways. The police station had issued a silence order on what happened on Stanley Street. After all, it was not a glorious thing. .
Therefore, when the red-headed Asan at the door heard that the other party turned out to be a Brazilian Navy lieutenant colonel, he felt lucky. Fortunately, he had not asked for money just because the other party was Chinese.
Otherwise, you might get into big trouble!
As for why the officers of the Brazilian Navy appeared in the port city, he still heard a little about it from the newspapers. However, what he couldn't figure out was why the other party knew the popular fried chicken from the Central Police Station.
Moreover, the other party also mentioned Stanley Street, which made his heart start to tremble.
The reason why John Zeng exchanged polite greetings with Qi Qingshan at the door was just to tell outsiders that this was the second time they met. If anyone knew about it, they would only think that the other party was here to receive favors and would not do anything. Too many associations.
When Qi Qingshan heard what John Zeng said, he also smiled slightly, raised his hand to look at the watch on his hand, and said to John Zeng:
"It's almost dinner time now. Let's find a restaurant and sit down to eat and chat. What do you think?"
Hearing this, John Zeng knew that what the other party came to ask him to say this time was not suitable to be said in public. He quickly slapped his forehead and said with an embarrassed look:
"Oops! It's my fault, my fault, I didn't thank Commander Qi properly for what happened last time! This time, I'll ask Commander Qi to show his respect, let me be a host, and treat Commander Qi to a simple meal. Do you think that's okay?"
The two of them knew each other tacitly, and when Qi Qingshan heard what John Zeng said, he naturally agreed happily.
"Haha...Then I won't be rude to you."
John Zeng also quickly reached out and pointed:
"It's my honor to invite you to dinner! Let's go, let's go, let's go. There is a restaurant near our police station that makes very good roast goose. This time, I invite Chief Qi to try our Hong Kong City's specialty roast goose. How about it?"
Qi Qingshan has also eaten a lot of delicious food with Fang Lang. He has no special interest in food, as long as he can eat enough, so of course he won't mind what the other party wants to treat him to.
"Oh! Then what are you waiting for? Let's go, let's go, let's go. I can't wait!"
After saying that, the two held each other's arms and walked out together looking very affectionate.
Before John Zeng left, he did not forget to turn around and say hello to the red-headed Ah San at the gate:
"If anyone comes to see me, just tell them that I went out to eat and wait until I get back to talk about anything."
Upon hearing this, the red-headed Ah San quickly turned to John Zeng’s back and saluted with a British military salute:
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, Qi Qingshan and John Zeng arrived at a small restaurant less than 100 meters away from the Central Police Station. The front door didn't look big, and there were a few grilled golden birds hanging in the glass display window next to the door. Fat roast goose.
A middle-aged chef wearing a linen apron was dragging a roast goose that had been cut in half and chopping it rhythmically with a kitchen knife, making a very pleasant sound of dong dong dong.
Walking into the foyer, the area inside is not small. More than a dozen simple round tables that can seat seven or eight people are placed regularly. There are already guests dining on less than half of the tables and chairs.
John Zeng seemed to be a regular customer here. After entering the store, he greeted a woman who looked almost fifty years old directly:
"Aunt Hua, help arrange a private room on the second floor."
The woman turned around after hearing this, and when she saw it was John Zeng, a smile quickly appeared on her face and she said:
"Hey! Inspector Zeng, you're here! Come on, come on, please come inside!"
As he spoke, he immediately left the guests he was greeting and led Zeng and John upstairs. The guests he left behind did not dare to speak when they heard the woman address the young man, and could only watch a few people go up. building.
The woman was very efficient in her work and quickly brought the two of them to a private room in the innermost room on the second floor. The private room was quite large and could accommodate more than ten people for a meal. If there were only Qi Qingshan and Zeng John, it would seem that It does seem a bit empty.
"Inspector Zeng, our box is the quietest and can see the scenery downstairs. Do you think it's okay?"
John Zeng didn’t just come here to eat. Seeing that Duo’s box was in the innermost room and there were no people coming and going outside, it was relatively quiet, so he didn’t say anything more and simply nodded and said:
"No problem! Just here! Today I want to use your precious space to greet the distinguished guests, show you a few of your store's specialty dishes, and then give us some quiet space. No problem!"
The woman obviously had a delicate mind. She served the two of them tea and water with deft hands and feet. She listened carefully to John Zeng's words. When she heard John Zeng's tone, she immediately nodded understandingly and said:
"Don't worry, Inspector Zeng, our private room is absolutely quiet! I will arrange some signature dishes for you now.
When you eat with us, no one will come to disturb you without your instructions. "
Hearing this, John Zeng nodded, waved his hand to the woman and said:
"Okay, okay, you don't need to wait here anymore. You can go down and arrange the food first!"
The woman didn't show any pretense, she just put down the tea set in her hand, apologized to the two of them, and quickly left.
After the other party closed the door and left, John Zeng signaled Qi Qingshan to be silent, and then began to check around the insurance, while still politely approaching Qi Qingshan.
As soon as Qi Qingshan saw the other party's performance, he knew that the other party was looking for whether there was any monitoring equipment here. Qi Qingshan admired the other party's cautious style very much.
They also chatted with each other very cooperatively.
After John Zeng thoroughly inspected the entire box and confirmed that there were no problems, the dishes were served.
The dishes are nothing special, just half a roast goose, a barbecued pork platter, a braised pork with lotus root, and a stir-fried seasonal vegetables with garlic paste.
John Zeng smiled and greeted the woman who brought the food in person, and then greeted Qi Qingshan warmly, indicating that they could chat while eating.
Qi Qingshan saw the other party's enthusiastic and lively appearance, which was completely different from the previous two times he saw him, and couldn't help but become curious about the other party.
