"Wen Lin's information shows that he is the eldest son in the family, but his mother has died of illness long ago. After his father married another man, he gave birth to three more children. One of them is a boy, only seven years old this year..."
A bloody dog fight in the house?
How big is the Wen family's fortune? Does it need someone to inherit it, or is this vicious stepmother unable to tolerate Wen Lin, the eldest son?
As expected, Wen Lin, the eldest son of the family, is going to inherit most of the Wen family's business. Now that something like this has happened to him, not to mention being imprisoned, his future will be ruined. Of course, there is no need to talk about his future now. .
Everyone is gone.
"Wen Lin's uncle is a poor bookworm with no skills. He is in his thirties and is still alone. He found a job as a bookkeeper, so there is no problem in supporting himself..."
"My mother's family doesn't have much power, so it's hard to stand up for Wen Lin, my nephew. No wonder it's not difficult for Bai Tai to go to the Wen family to break off the engagement." Zhou Sen nodded. Breaking off an engagement has been a shame and humiliation since ancient times, especially for the man. The Wen family didn't react at all. This shows his attitude towards Wen Lin.
"Would you like to get in touch with Wen Lin's uncle?"
"Okay, you guys can get in touch first and get to know the situation." Zhou Sen nodded. It was difficult for an upright official to deal with household matters. He just wanted to find out the situation at the Binjiang Station of the military command behind the "Iron Blood Society". As for bloody house fighting, it was not his concern. Area of interest.
"good."
"You guys are buying this office equipment first. It won't be wasted anyway. You will have to move it over there when the time comes."
"Now that our number of people has increased, we don't have enough radio and receiver equipment, and there are also power problems. This is a residential area, with frequent power outages and unstable voltage. If you want to maintain stable reception, you need to pull a special circuit. , this requires negotiation with the power plant..."
"You make a list of what I have to do, and then we divide the work." Zhou Sen ordered.
"Well, do we still need to recruit some people? I'm worried that these people are not enough now?"
"Go to Bingcheng College. There should be people we need there. We can recruit more and prepare them first."
"Will anyone from the Ice Special Agent turn over?"
"There is part of it, but I have to wait a moment. I still need to confirm with Director Ono Dakuan." Zhou Sen said.
"Okay, should you follow me over to Bingcheng College?"
"Well, let's get in touch with them first, and then choose a suitable time. I'd like to go now. I'm afraid the good ones among the fresh graduates will have been picked out long ago."
"It doesn't matter, we are just looking for people to do the work. Besides, picking the remaining ones doesn't necessarily mean there are no talents. Let's pick first." Zhou Sen said.
In the next few days, Zhou Sen became very busy, and almost no one was seen at the police station. Naturally, some people had objections and even filed a complaint with Matsuda Kikuo.
Matsuda knew what Zhou Sen was doing, so he naturally scolded the complainer. Then, there was no one in the hall who reported Zhou Sen.

Having been scrutinized by two consecutive directors, this is no problem even in the police department. Who dares to ask about Zhou Sen's attendance?
The staffing of the "Intelligence Room" has also gradually improved, from the first two people, to eight people, and now to twenty people.
The equipment followed immediately. Although it was not new, it was better than nothing. The intelligence room was built bit by bit in Zhou Sen's hands.
…
Zuo Tengying called him to No. 3 Yiyuan Road.
"Sir Sato, I am considering setting up four teams in the intelligence room: chores, interception, deciphering and intelligence analysis. The chores team is responsible for the logistics support, equipment maintenance and storage of the intelligence room. The interception team, as the name suggests, is responsible for me. For the liaison work of the radio stations lurking in the Far East of Soviet Russia, Decipher is temporarily responsible for the translation of messages. There is also intelligence analysis, which is to summarize and organize the relevant information obtained according to levels and make relevant analyses. Currently, the personnel are still in charge. During the process of running-in, except for the leader of the interception team, which I recommend Anna to be the leader, there are no suitable candidates for the other three team leaders..."
"Are the personnel from the Ice Special Agent in place?"
"Director Ono's side is still in the process of handing over. My house on Youyi Road is still under renovation. I will temporarily house my office in my old house on Coats Street. It is estimated that it will take at least a month before the house there is fully renovated. ." Zhou Sen explained that firstly, the place where he was was small and couldn't be used, and secondly, Ono Dakuan was unwilling to let people go.
He couldn't guarantee when the newbies he recruited would produce results.
"I will supervise Ono-kun, you should set up according to this organizational structure first." Sato Hide thought for a while and ordered.
"Yes, Chief Sato."
"I heard that your wife gave birth to twins: a boy and a girl?" Zuo Tengying suddenly asked.
"Yes."
"Has the full moon party been held?"
"It's not done yet, the time is not up yet." Zhou Sen smiled coquettishly, and what did Zuo Tengying mean when he suddenly mentioned this? Could it be that he wanted to join in the excitement of his two children's full moon drinks, but he had no intention of inviting him.
"I heard that you invited a lot of people, and all the business celebrities in Bingcheng were invited?" Zuo Tengying asked.
"Those are my wife's social connections."
"Zhou Senjun, you have married a good wife!"
"Sir Zuotou, that's ridiculous. This subordinate is just a bit unlucky." Zhou Sen leaned forward slightly and said.
"This luck is not something anyone can just say." Zuo Tengying laughed.
"Sir Zuotou, my subordinate actually prepared an invitation for you, but you suddenly called me to report on the work. I didn't take the invitation with me when I went out, so..." Zhou Sen explained hurriedly.
"Haha, it's understandable. Since Mr. Zhou Sen sincerely invites you, I will definitely go there when the time comes." Sato Hideo said.
"Thank you, Sir Zuotou. I will sweep the couch to greet you when the time comes." Zhou Sen thought that the other party would politely refuse, but he didn't expect that he actually agreed.
I have no choice but to send this invitation.
…
"How's it going? Has Chief Sato approved the intelligence room structure we designed?" Anna asked with concern after returning to the temporary residence of the "Intelligence Room".
"Well, I basically agree, but the leaders of each group have not yet been determined. I guess we will wait for the people from the Ice Special Agent to come over." Zhou Sen nodded, "However, we can group ourselves first and then designate For a deputy team leader, the title should be decided first. Even if the appointment of the team leader needs to be approved by the superiors in the future, we must first hold on to our own part."
"Well, the establishment of the intelligence room can be said to have been done by you and me. We can't be used as a wedding dress for others."
"I am considered a special case. There has never been a Manchurian person in charge of the Japanese intelligence department." Zhou Sen said, "However, in name, I am only a deputy, so it does not break the rules."
"Well, what to do next?" Anna nodded and asked.
"Inform everyone to come to the conference room for a meeting."
…
The temporary conference room was packed with people, including Western faces and Eastern faces, with a ratio of almost one to one.
Zhou Sen directly opened his remarks in Russian, basically setting the main direction of the intelligence room's work.
To Sue.
"Our special intelligence room is a confidential unit, subordinate to the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department, under the guidance of the clerical intelligence class. It is mainly responsible for the collection, collation and analysis of military intelligence in the Soviet Far East. This work will continue for a long time in the future. I don’t know how long it will take, but what I want to say is that in the next period of time, I hope that everyone will cooperate sincerely and work together to do this job well, which will have a huge impact on your future.”
"The intelligence room is temporarily divided into four groups to work. The miscellaneous group, as the name suggests, is responsible for everyone's lives and the security work of the intelligence room. Interception is now the core work of the intelligence room. We now have four receivers, which are mainly responsible for receiving and interception of related confidential communications sent from the Far East. This will be expanded in the future depending on the situation. I don’t need to explain the translation team. The last one is intelligence analysis. The miscellaneous team currently has Muren as the team leader, and he is also responsible for intelligence. For the security work of the room, Miss Anna serves as the team leader for the two groups of interception and translation. These two groups work together, and Miss Anna is responsible for the main business. For the last intelligence analysis, I will also serve as the team leader. Now I invite Miss Anna Announce the list of team members!”
"Miscellaneous group, Muren, Wu En, Cheng Yunfeng..., detection and interpretation group, Martha (this is my identity in the intelligence room), Nina, Han Songyue, Yao Yumei, Moros, Yamada Eeko, Harada Sachiko, Imura..., intelligence analysis team, William (Zhou Sen), Bekovsky, Fu Changming, Lomonshinov..."
"Our current job is to organize and archive the information transferred from other departments, and to familiarize ourselves with the goals of our upcoming work. First of all, I have a few requirements. First, everyone must be familiar with and understand the list of senior Soviet officials. and employment status, any changes must be grasped as soon as possible. Secondly, the information collection of military officers stationed in the Soviet Far East must reach at least the battalion commander level. Thirdly, be familiar with the Soviet military’s communication codes and communication frequencies. , prepare for future interception and deciphering..."
Since you have to do something, you must naturally come up with some real materials. Otherwise, if the Japanese see that you are deliberately passive and sabotaging, it will be troublesome.
There is a gap between how to say it and how to do it, and how far you can go. Moreover, there is no end to intelligence work, as long as the progress is in your own hands.
Anyway, according to the historical process, Japan will not take the initiative to provoke the leader again. As long as they cooperate well, there will be no problem for him to secure his current position.
After the meeting, Zhou Sen waved his hand and asked everyone to go to work. He, Anna, Muren, Han Songyue and others were the only ones left in the conference room.
"Our work needs to be kept secret, whether it is from outsiders or from our own family, so we must have a job and identity to cover up. I have assigned a task to everyone before, which is to help us think about what kind of work we can do to cover up. Our real work." This is why Zhou Sen kept these people he brought back from the Yianpo special training base.
"This job needs to be able to accommodate so many of us working together, and it must also minimize external contact and interference." Anna added.
“We could open a factory?”
"The factory needs raw materials and production products. If we don't buy and sell, people will definitely be suspicious of us over time." Opposition sounded.
"A trading company, that kind of external trading company, we are only responsible for receiving and dispatching orders, and can we use the radio station legally and reasonably?"
"Well, we can consider it, but if we want to do it, we must really do it, instead of using it as a pretense. What if business really comes to us?" Zhou Sen listened and nodded. This is a good idea.
"Newspaper offices, or publishing houses, directors, we can do things in the name of the publishing house. No matter what we publish, ordinary people will not check it. We can publish some old books or printed matter, and this business will come, right?" Han Songyue suggested road.
"Xiao Han's suggestion is good. The publishing house is very good. Director, what do you think?"
"Well, this idea is very good. We can publish Russian and historical books, of course not just Russian, Japanese, and English books. Moreover, if we do well, there will be an objective profit. Moreover, I am in charge of this aspect of review, why didn’t I think of this convenience!” Zhou Sen also expressed appreciation.
He originally wanted to consider setting up a "newspaper agency", but a newspaper agency must publish a newspaper. Publishing a newspaper will bring exposure. Once it becomes famous, it is not a good thing.
The publishing house is much more low-key and can take on a lot of work. It can even get a lot of work from the puppet Manchukuo government through its connections.
"Okay, it's settled then. Let's start a publishing house. Let's brainstorm a name and try to find a low-key and catchy name." Zhou Sen thought about it for a moment. This can be considered related to his work and is considered an expert in the industry. , there is no better cover identity than this.
"Why don't we just call it Lilac Publishing House?"
"Lilac Press?"
Lilac was Anna's former code name, and lilac is the most planted flower in Bingcheng. It is also a flower that the common people like, and can be said to be the city flower.
It is extremely appropriate to use this name as the name of the publishing house.
Anna also looked at Zhou Sen with burning eyes. The name "Lilac" has a special meaning to her.
The decision whether to use "It" as the name of the publishing house depends on Zhou Sen's decision.
"Okay, this name is very good. It is simple and easy to remember. You can register with the police department tomorrow. Then, we can also make a magazine under the name 'Lilac', as long as it does not involve political content." , everything is fine." Zhou Sen made the final decision.
Anna immediately beamed when she heard that Zhou Sen decided to adopt the name "Lilac".
It involves a confidential unit and requires tight security, so Zhou Sen opened the utility room under the stairs of his home and the darkroom inside.
The utility room directly serves as the temporary office of the utility team, and the darkroom inside serves as the weapons depot of the special intelligence room.
A batch of self-defense firearms and ammunition were collected from No. 3 Yiyuan Road and put in, and self-defense weapons were distributed to those who were willing to carry weapons.
