Fang Lin recalled Xie Xuan's words carefully. He did not dare to miss every word Xie Xuan said:
"He said two things to me at that time. The first one was: 'With your skills, you can set up a stall on Shantang Street.' The second sentence was: 'No need to look for it.'"
Geng Sicheng suddenly said: "With your skills, you can set up a stall on Shantang Street. "No need to look for it."... Comrade Cherry Meat, did you say that there is a dead mailbox on Shantang Street?"
Geng Wenzhi nodded: "Yes, it's at the third bridge on Shantang Street."
Fang Lin immediately said: "Geng Shuji, I'm going to get the information."
Geng Wenzhi shook his head: "No, you can set up a stall in front of Shijia Restaurant as usual."
Fang Lin really appeared on Shantang Street. If someone saw him, it might arouse suspicion.
Geng Sicheng and Zhu Hongmei went to Shantang Street and pretended to have fun. After all, they were young people and it was normal to go to Shantang Street.
Soon, they successfully retrieved the information.
Geng Sicheng said: "This is Comrade Cherry Meat's information."
Geng Wenzhi took the information and asked, "Have the superior's instructions been put in?"
Zhu Hongmei said: "Put it in."
"That's good."
Geng Wenzhi then opened the information. After reading it, he looked solemn: "Sicheng, go to Northern Jiangsu immediately and send this information out."
The information on cherry meat is very important. One hundred thousand catties of grain, five thousand catties of salt, and one hundred thousand ammunition are also very important to the New Fourth Army.
Xie Xuan just went to Shantang Street in the evening and was very relieved to see that the information was taken away.
Just when he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a new code. He then walked to the dead mailbox, took away the stone, put his hand in and touched it, and sure enough he touched a note.
After stuffing the rocks back, Xie Xuan returned to the Suzhou hotel as if nothing was wrong.
"Brother Xuan, where have you been?"
At the door of the Suzhou hotel, Xie Xuan met Ueno Naomi.
Xie Xuan smiled and said: "I was about to go to Lion Rock for a walk, but suddenly I thought that you would come back when you arrived in Suzhou. Look, I have you in my heart."
Ueno Naomi suddenly came to Suzhou, ostensibly to accompany Wang Mingzhao for inspection, but in fact, Xie Xuan had no idea what the mission was.
He could only be sure of one thing, Naomi Ueno would never accompany Wang Mingzhao to Suzhou specifically.
Although Wang Mingzhao is the head of the new government, in the eyes of the Japanese, he is no more than a dog.
Any orders issued by the Nanjing government must first consult the Japanese, or even act in accordance with the plans formulated by the Japanese.
Wang Mingzhao and Zhou Hai often complained to the Japanese not to interfere in the affairs of the Nanjing government.
But will the Japanese listen? They gave the Nanjing government very little autonomy.
Ueno Naomi said angrily: "If you really want me in your heart, you have to take me to Shantang Street."
Xie Xuan said: "Okay, I won't do anything else tomorrow and will accompany you to visit Hanshan Temple."
After confirming that the Suzhou Municipal Party Committee had taken away the information, he felt confident.
Ueno Naomi asked: "What do you want to do tomorrow?"
Xie Xuan said: "It's nothing, I just need to escort something and let others do it for me."
Ueno Naomi suddenly said: "Brother Xuan, I forgot to bring money when I came to Suzhou this time. Can you lend me some?"
Xie Xuan said casually: "Okay, do you want U.S. dollars, Japanese yen, or China Reserve Certificates? Military coupons are also acceptable."
Ueno Naomi aims to become the most powerful spy in Japan and is not interested in money. She was rejected by Xie Xuan many times before, and she only reluctantly accepted the gifts.
Naomi Ueno stretched out her hand and said, "Whatever, I want whatever money you have in your wallet."
Xie Xuan said: "I don't have much use in my wallet. I'll get it when I go back to the room."
He thought, Ueno Naomi was still determined to give up.
Where does she want the money? I just want to check my wallet.
Naomi Ueno said sweetly, "No, I want the money in your wallet."
Xie Xuan took out the wallet very simply and handed it over: "Okay, okay, the wallet is yours, okay? Take it all."
He knew that Ueno Naomi was still doubtful about the note he gave to Fang Lin.
This little devil is too suspicious.
This may be a woman's sixth sense, and it's really accurate.
However, Xie Xuan had already disposed of the banknote with the information written on it.
Moreover, after Xie Xuan met Ueno Naomi, he decided not to contact Fang Lin at the Shijia Hotel.
From now on, even if Fang Lin was polishing shoes in front of Shijia Hotel, he would not pass on information to him.
Ueno Naomi smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, brother Xuan. I'll go back to the room first and come find you later."
Xie Xuan knew that she would go back to her room to check her wallet carefully, while Xie Xuan would go back to her room to read the information.
Xie Xuan thought that it would be enough to tell his superiors that someone from the Taihu guerrillas had contacted Mei Mingzhang.
Unexpectedly, the organization asked him to assist in investigating specific personnel.
Our party has never allowed the Taihu Guerrilla Detachment to come into contact with the Loyalty and Salvation Army. If anyone comes into contact, it is either with bad intentions or personal factors.
Whatever the reason, it must be found out.
This was something Chen Runeng saw by chance when he went to Mei Mingzhang's department. Chen Runeng did not know that person, and only Mei Mingzhang knew the specific situation.
He now regrets that he should not have agreed to Ueno Naomi's visit to Hanshan Temple just now.
Tomorrow was to deliver food, salt and ammunition to the Loyalty and Salvation Army. If he went there in person, he might be able to get in touch with Mei Mingzhang and find out who that person was.
The next day, Xie Xuan went outside the city early in the morning, where Chen Runeng was already waiting.
This time, Chen Runeng was fully responsible for delivering food and grass to the Loyalty Salvation Army. In addition, members of the Qingxiang Committee sent a commissioner to accompany him.
Their task was to deliver food and grass to Mei Mingzhang.
In order to hide themselves, everyone disguised themselves as a caravan so that even if they encountered the New Fourth Army, they would not be too embarrassed.
After all, it is rare for businessmen to go to areas controlled by the New Fourth Army. The New Fourth Army has a very gentle attitude towards businessmen and provides protection in the base areas.
Businessmen go to the base areas to make high profits, while the New Fourth Army solves the problem of daily necessities through businessmen.
They had food and salt, which the people in the base area urgently needed.
Xie Xuan warned: "After you meet Mei Mingzhang, ask him to write a receipt. In addition, Mr. Chen will find an opportunity to take a photo with Mei Mingzhang."
Chen Runeng said firmly: "Don't worry, Mr. Xie, it will be done."
After sending Chen Runeng away, Xie Xuan reported to Li Junshi, and then took Ueno Naomi to Hanshan Temple.
Early in the morning, Xie Xuan went to Shantang Street to deliver the latest information to the underground party, and asked Yang Zhiyi's radio station to quickly report to the New Fourth Army headquarters.
Hanshan Temple was first built in the Xiaoliang Dynasty during the Tianjian period of the Southern Dynasty, and was originally named "Miaoli Puming Pagoda Courtyard".
Hanshan Temple belongs to the Rinzai sect of Zen Buddhism. During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, two eminent monks, Hanshan and Xiqian, founded Hanshan Temple.
Hanshan Temple was destroyed by fire five times in more than 1,000 years, and the last time it was rebuilt was during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty.
Hanshan Temple was once one of the top ten famous temples in China. There are many historical sites in the temple, including Zhang Jishi's stone inscriptions, Hanshan and Hanshan's found stone statues, and fragments of inscriptions written by Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin.
Xie Xuan took Ueno Naomi to visit Hanshan Temple for a day. Only after returning to the city did he realize that something had happened.
