"...I apologize to you for this matter..." The middle-aged man reflected on it and felt that he was indeed a bit too involved in the other party. Although he did not have subjective distrust, he did imply this meaning objectively.

The middle-aged man said this, which made the middle-aged and young man a little helpless. His meaning was that the other party did not believe in his ability, so he did not expect that he would have such a big reaction after saying it.

"We'll stop talking, maintain our trading attitude and don't let others be suspicious." The two of them said it out, but they still insisted on their own words, thinking they were wrong, but the middle-aged and young man mentioned it, and the two stopped arguing.

"I squeezed out a fund here to submit it. The amount has been counted and indicated. You can count it and transfer it on behalf of others. All of them have been exchanged for foreign currency. Please consider my advice carefully."

When middle-aged man heard this, he didn't say much. After taking it, he opened it and took it carefully. It was not that he did not trust it, but that it involved money and other things. This was a necessary procedure.

"You don't plan to pass it, you hand in so much?" After counting it twice, the middle-aged man looked up and couldn't help but speak.

When the middle-aged and young man heard this, he said, "I have indeed handed in more cases, but it does not affect the business. I have left enough for maintaining business operations. The amount was small before, mainly because there were many relationships in the early stage, and the channels and channels should be developed, and the expenses were not low.

But the business is on track at present, and this part of the expense is only maintenance costs, and most of it is considered in transactions. If you want to continue to expand your business, it is no longer a problem that can be solved by money, or in other words, this little money can no longer play a big role.

Another reason is that Shanghai has been speculating in a hot spot recently. Not only silver, stocks, and various things may have become speculative targets for some people, and naturally, it also includes various transactions in the black market. I have also earned a lot of money by selling news."

After hearing this, the middle-aged man felt relieved to accept the funds. He was still worried... Alas... the middle-aged man sighed in his heart, and then he realized it and woke up again. He was trapped in the misunderstanding of distrust.

The two chatted for a while, exchanged some messages, and finally pretended to be a model and then separated after reaching a deal.

...

"…crack..." Chai fired exploded. In a completely Western-style living room, two Westerners sat opposite each other in front of the swaying fireplace.

"I really don't understand. What kind of fireplace do you have to burn in this kind of weather?"

One of them couldn't stand it anymore, so he got up and took off his coat, revealing the white shirt soaked in sweat. The sweat was wet, and it was translucent, and the slightly brown-black chest hair inside was clearly visible.

"The gun is hidden in the back of the waist, and it has not been loaded. I insist on enduring it for a long time. I have a certain degree of patience, but my words are vulgar, my true education and culture are limited, and I only put my clothes on my hands, which means I am very cautious about this place or daily life..."

"...Okay OK... Stop talking, you like to burn the fireplace wherever you go. Is it because of this?" The brown-haired man spoke a little annoyed and said curiously.

"Not this, I have lived in a castle at home since I was a child and have become accustomed to the life of always burning the fireplace..."

The blonde man spoke lightly. After saying that, he slowly poured the wine in the decanter into half a goblet, shook it gently for a few times, and tasted it with a look of intoxication.

"…Haha…Is he growing up in an old house in the countryside? Is he still a castle, why are you bragging about? A countryside bun."

"...You really investigated me..." The blonde man was not panicked at all and replied lightly, but the corner of his mouth still exposed his dissatisfaction.

"What a big deal! Your drinking habits have exposed you, and there is also this wine..."

The brown-haired man picked up the bottle of wine on the side, looked disgusted and said, "This thing is an introductory wine in the upper class, but it is only popular among the upstarts. The nobles living in the castle don't drink it at all. Pretend it in front of me, and you can also get a bottle of good wine!"

"How did you know?" The blonde man was a little embarrassed and snored. It was too late to react.

"I've pretended too." The brown-haired man was silent for a long time before he said this.

The blonde man almost squirted out the wine from his mouth. Seeing that he was silent, he thought he was a down-and-out nobleman! That's the end?

"Okay, let's not mention these, come to Shanghai and provide you with all kinds of information. How are you thinking about it? Are you considering standing here?"

The brown-haired man took a sip of wine and spoke and asked questions first.

The blonde man frowned slightly when he heard this, and replied: "The Japanese are very ambitious and will inevitably make big moves in the future, but you should know that the people behind me are trading with them, and may even be happier about it."

The brown-haired man was silent, but soon smiled lightly and said, "But this does not affect the choice you make, right? We are in intelligence work and are shameless. What choices we make will not have much impact on those things.

Even what we do in intelligence is to plan for the future. In Chinese terms, it is called planning ahead. War is an act of destruction and requires a large amount of resources.

I don't think that Japan can have so much money to purchase materials to maintain the war and launch foreign wars, which is often due to internal economic problems, which is particularly obvious to the Japanese.

The economy has problems, so the funds that can be used are naturally limited. I don’t think that by attacking and plundering China, they can bring them the funds to pay their war bills. Even if there are, the plundering is mostly resources and raw materials, which will instead lower their import needs.

This is not in your interests, right? The best state should be that the Chinese can withstand the Japanese attack to a certain extent, continuously consume the Japanese resources, obstruct the Japanese from obtaining resources, and allow the Japanese to continue to find the people behind you to purchase until they completely empty Japan. This should be the best in line with the needs of the people behind you, right?"

The blonde man's eyelids twitched, but his face was always calm and he smiled lightly: "Your thoughts have changed so quickly. Let me think about who have you met recently?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The brown-haired man just smiled and responded without saying much. He took a big sip of wine, picked up his coat and put it on his body, said hello casually, and then walked quickly towards the door.

Looking at the closed door, the blonde man frowned. Obviously, he did not take advantage of the battle just now, and he had even seen through everything.

...

"Brother Wen, you guessed it. We were indeed targeted. The group of blind Zhong, who had conflicted with us during the day, really led people to touch the reed shed."

Aside a haystack, several figures could be seen vaguely hiding there under the moonlight, and a heavy breath could be heard. I guess I had been running a lot just now.

A little far away from the few people, on the edge of a river beach, several rows of sheds were built there in a mess, some of which had been blown away by the wind.

But now, with the moonlight, many figures can be seen vaguely touching and approaching.

"Do you do it?" A voice sounded softly beside the haystack.

He Changwen touched the gun in his hand, suppressing the restlessness in his heart, and did not make arbitrary decision immediately.

That’s right, He Changwen and his party who were staying next to the haystack were responsible for exploring around Shanghai. Because the scope of the exploration was too wide and the progress was falling a lot, they only found near Sichuan Sha. It can be said that they were basically south of the Huangpu River and there were basically no investigations.

After they took action, they saw that the progress was too slow, so they bought an old tent and held it on their own, and then they could barely catch up. The high intensity in the task Lin Mo said was not fake at all, and He Changwen was now forced to be able to hold on to the boat.

In the afternoon, several people sailed from Yangjing, Tangqiao and other places in Shanghai, exploring the direction of Chuansha. As a result, they found some conflicts with a group of gangsters during the makeup reconnaissance.

The other party found a random fault, swung his hand and wanted to sweep it in the face. The brothers from the fourth team subconsciously dodged and avoided it. As a result, the other party only pushed him a few times, and then left after squirting out trash talks.

He Changwen realized that something was wrong. The other party's actions might be a test, but the Japanese obviously would not be able to see several gangsters. The information they had found before was active here was a group of smuggling and trafficking forces engaged in internal and external smuggling.

Internal and external smuggling, that is, people responsible for transportation work from the inside to the outside and from the outside to the inside, and here they use ships to travel back and forth to load and unload various cargoes in smuggling ships, mainly to avoid customs, dock inspections and various eyeliners.

This group of people is not bad at power. They have more than a dozen ships under their command. Although they are basically wooden motorized ships, wooden motor sails, and even ordinary sailboats, they are all dispatched and can carry hundreds of tons or even more goods at a time, which is also a big force among them.

This type of people basically have many connections with various foreign forces in Shanghai. He Changwen infers that they either have sex with the Japanese or are simply supported by the Japanese.

These people are really willing to spend a lot of money to deal with them. The goods they leave are basically shameful, and their role on the Japanese is not comparable to those gangs in the city.

The leader of this group is a man named Zhong Tingxiong, nicknamed Zhong Xiazi. It is said that he had an eye that was injured by a bomb during a war, leaving a circle of scars around his eyes. He usually wears an eye mask, but his characteristics are quite obvious.

It is rumored that he was once the company commander of a warlord unit in Beiyang or something. After being defeated and dispersed, he gathered a group of people, first robbed and plundered everywhere and gathered a sum of money before he started smuggling and trafficking.

After He Changwen found out that the situation was wrong, he did not choose to withdraw directly. Although this place was the main active area of ​​the other party, its range of activities covers the east and south banks of the Huangpu River. Because these areas are intertwined, it is most suitable for secretly smuggling and trafficking activities.

If this problem cannot be solved, they are likely to be unable to investigate with peace of mind, and even highly likely to be calculated by the other party who is more familiar with the local situation.

Of course, I just guessed that there was something wrong with the other party before. Another purpose left was to confirm this. The opponent's power was not weak, which might not only pose a threat to their exploration, but may even have an impact in subsequent actions, so confirmation is also very necessary.

So in the evening, the few people chose to leave the village by land, and came here not far from their hiding boat. The villagers took a look at the fields, but the shed that they had not used for the time being, pretending to be going to stay here overnight to test the other party's reaction.

If the other party has any problems, they will definitely pay attention to their actions, and they will definitely take action after dark.

Of course, the few people wouldn't stay there stupidly. After pretending to be like falling asleep normally, they changed into a temporary fake target and quietly touched the edge of the old haystack left over last year through the ridge of the field.

The terrain here is slightly higher, with wide views, and there are hidden objects. The straw is probably stored for those reed sheds that were repaired this year. They secretly pulled off a lot of them to cushion, not to block moisture. The drought and heat here are severe, and the high places here are dry. The main thing is to cushion more comfortable, and you can also be used as a hidden object.
