As soon as he went to work the next day, Jiang Yifan took two team members, Qiao Zhiqiang and Liu Liangcai, to the police station, checked the files and records of Japanese businessmen in Jinling, and found the files of Shinichi Shimahashi!
Shinichi Shimahashi, male, 25 years old, 1.75 meters tall, born in Toishi Prefecture, Japan! In October 1936, he temporarily lived in Jinling, rented three shops at No. 130 Zhonghua Road, Confucius Temple, and opened a Daoqiao trading firm, mainly engaged in wholesale and retail of silk and cotton cloth.
When he saw Shimahashi Shinichi's photo, Jiang Yifan couldn't help but be surprised!
Why is he so similar to me?
He looked at it carefully for a while, it was unbelievable!
But he didn't say anything, but picked up another form from Shimahashi Shinichi's file bag.
Rika Kuno, female, 21 years old, 1.68 meters tall, born in Hokkaido, Japan, assistant to Shinichi Shimahashi!
After Jiang Yifan memorized the information and appearance of Shimahashi Shinichi and Kuno Rika, he returned Shimahashi Shinichi's file to the archives, left the police station, and came to Confucius Temple Zhonghua, the residence of Japanese businessmen in Jinling. Road No. 130!
In order to avoid misunderstandings and troubles, Jiang Yifan specially wore a pair of sunglasses.
They found a window seat facing the street in a Japanese teahouse across the street and ordered a pot of tea. While the three of them drank tea, they secretly observed the activities of Shimao Bridge Trading Company.
I saw an endless stream of people coming and going in the store.
About an hour later, Shinichi Shimahashi and two local businessmen walked out of the store. Rika Kuno followed Shinichi Shimahashi, followed by two bodyguards.
Kuno Rika waved to six rickshaws, and then the four of them took the car and headed south.
Jiang Yifan looked at Shinichi Shimahashi going away, stood up, paid, got into three rickshaws, and followed from a distance.
About half an hour later, Shimahashi Shinichi and his party arrived at the train station.
"Why hasn't the train arrived yet?" Li Xianyi, a tall and thin businessman, asked anxiously.
"It's common for trains to be delayed! There's no rush! We guarantee you'll get the goods today! All you have to do is prepare the money!"
Shinichi Shimahashi said calmly in Chinese.
"Don't worry about the money. Just load the goods into the car and pay immediately. It's the same old rule!" Zhang Yu, a short and fat businessman, replied readily.
"Oh! It'll be okay to wait a while! The world is not peaceful now. Except for you who can free up silk and cotton from Shanghai, it's really hard for anyone else to get it. As long as the goods can be obtained, just wait!"
Li Xianyi looked at Shimahashi Shinichi and said truthfully.
"In order to get this batch of goods, I also used my domestic connections to open up this road. If it weren't for my strong connections, I wouldn't have even thought of coming to Shanghai!"
When Shinichi Shimahashi heard this, he replied with an extremely superior feeling.
"Since there is such an ironclad way, why not get some urgently needed drugs like penicillin?" Zhang Yu suddenly asked in a lowered voice.
Shinichi Shimahashi looked around and said cautiously: "I don't want to do business in this area!"
Since this was a very taboo topic, everyone changed the subject.
After a while, the train finally entered the station and stopped on the platform. The door of carriage No. 26 opened. After completing the cargo inspection procedures, Li Xianyi waved his hand to a truck and asked the loaders to start loading the truck.
Some idle people around also gathered around and became a crowd of onlookers.
"Good guy! Silk, cotton!"
"Is this a hot commodity?"
"Who's the boss? Can you sell me less?"
“It’s okay to pay more!”
Hearing this, Kuno Rika looked at the two bodyguards.
The bodyguard understood and drove away the people around him:
"Go, go! Stand far away, don't take it as a mistake to unload the goods! The goods on the car have been sold out. If you want it, go to Confucius Temple Daoqiao Trading Company tomorrow and order in advance!"
At this time, a man with long hair was staring at Zhang Yu in the crowd. When he saw the bodyguard chasing people away, he flashed past Zhang Yu and then left quickly!
"Quick! Follow the long-haired man! Catch him in a place where no one is around."
Qiao Zhiqiang and Liu Liangcai followed immediately.
The man with long hair finally stopped in a deserted alley and took out a bag from his waist. When he opened it, he saw that it was all filled with US dollars!
He looked excited and looked around like a reflex, but as soon as he turned around, Liu Liangcai punched him to the ground and he fainted!
Qiao Zhiqiang reached out to pick up his wallet. Before he could check it, a voice came from behind him:
"Leave it to me! Find a place, tie him up, gag him, lock him up, and then come back right away!"
Qiao Zhiqiang was startled and turned around quickly. When he saw it was Jiang Yifan, he quickly handed over the money bag.
Jiang Yifan took the money bag, turned and left.
"Where's my money? Where's my money?"
Jiang Yifan saw Zhang Yu from afar, running around anxiously, groping all over his body and yelling.
Li Xianyi asked anxiously:
"Where did you put your money?"
"It's in a money bag in my waist! Why is it gone?"
Zhang Yu was so anxious that he even cried. He untied his belt, but the money bag still didn't fall off!
Shinichi Shimahashi also said with a surprised look:
"I didn't see anyone hanging around you just now?"
"Yes! But the money bag is gone! Oh my God! What can we do?"
Zhang Yu was about to cry but had no tears, his face turned pale, and he shouted loudly.
Shimahashi Shinichi thought for a while and said solemnly:
"Don't be too anxious! The goods will be shipped to the store first, don't worry! I'll wait for you for three days. If you still don't have the money after three days, then I will refund the deposit to you. Do you think this is okay?"
Li Xianyi became anxious upon hearing this and said emotionally:
"No! Shimahashi-kun! You also know that we have been waiting for this batch of goods for more than half a year, and now we have finally got it. Can't you not give it to us?"
"Please, you must let us take the goods away first. We are not dealing with each other for a day or two. We promise that we will raise all the money as soon as possible when we get back and send it to you! Please!" "
But Shimahashi Shinichi said categorically: "I'm sorry! Xianyi-kun! Everything must be done according to the rules! If you don't have money, you will never take the goods!"
Hearing this, Zhang Yu also came to Shimahashi Shinichi, knelt down on the ground with a "pop", and begged bitterly:
"Shimahashi-kun! Please! Please be kind! Let us take this batch of goods away! We also received deposits from others! If we cannot deliver the goods, we will have to pay liquidated damages, and that will be ours. Oh my life! Please, Shimahashi-kun!"
"No! Absolutely not! Come here! Drive the car away!" Shinichi Shimahashi refused.
"Hayi!"
A bodyguard opened the cab door and was about to pull the driver out of the car.
However, Li Xianyi pulled the bodyguard away and shouted to the driver:
"Drive away quickly!"
When the driver heard this, he immediately started his car and was ready to escape as soon as he accelerator.
Shinichi Shimahashi and Rika Kuno quickly stood in front.
Zhang Yu pulled Shimahashi Shinichi and Kuno Rika aside.
But at this moment, a truck came from the left at high speed and hit Shimahashi Shinichi, Kuno Rika and Zhang Yu straight away.
"Bang bang bang!"
There were only three muffled sounds, and Shinichi Shimahashi, Rika Kuno, and Zhang Yu were all knocked away!
