Chapter 797: Swap
Lido Cabaret.
One of the four major dance halls in Shanghai, the rest are three, Paramount, Cirox and Metropolis (there are also other rankings).
Lido used to rank low, and after Gao Xinbao's death, it was once considered to fall out of the Big Four, but later Chen Miao took over and reopened.
Business is better than ever.
And the Lido is known as the cleanest dance hall in Shanghai.
In addition to dancing and some other entertainment activities, Chen Miao is strictly forbidden to have other things in the dance hall, especially tobacco and D products.
As for the things that you want between guests and dancers, there is no hard and fast rule about this, but if you want to be praised by the dance hall, you can't have those messy things.
Moreover, the dancers of the Lido Cabaret are protected, and no one can force them to do what they don't want to do, and their descendants are Chen Sanshui, the director of the No. 76 Inspectorate.
Therefore, many dancers who go to the sea are willing to come to Lido, after all, this guarantee is not available in other dance halls, and Lido is the most enlightened to dancers, coming and going freely, except for the commission of the rules, there will be no additional exploitation.
How much money Lido makes, Chen Miao doesn't care, as long as he doesn't lose money, opening a dance hall is not his idea, he has no choice but to do it.
It's a pity to turn it off, so why not make money from those who don't know their homeland and nationality at all, and secretly transfer funds for the anti-Japanese resistance?
"Agen ......"
"Understood, third brother." Agen nodded, he is now not only the manager of Lido, but also a shareholder, and he is more attentive to management.
Of course, he is more loyal to Chen Miao than Gao Xinbao in the past, although Gao Xinbao treats him well, but Gao Xinbao still has a lot of habits in the rivers and lakes after all, and he often beats and scolds his subordinates, Chen Miao is different, he has always persuaded people with reason, which makes Ah Gen die and convinced.
"Third brother, here!"
At eight o'clock, very punctually, Agen himself went down, led a man to the back door, and then came up the stairs, knocked on the door, and pushed open the office.
"Secretary Zheng." When Chen Miao saw Zheng Jiayuan, her expression froze slightly, and she walked over slowly.
"I'm no longer the secretary general of the Shanghai District of the Military Command."
"Chief Zheng, don't come unharmed."
"It's fine." Zheng Jiayuan nodded slightly, and removed the hooded cloak on his body.
"Please!" Chen Miao, "I prepared a few side dishes, and we talked while eating." ”
"Okay." Zheng Jiayuan did not refuse, but walked straight over and sat down.
"This is a flower carving in Shaoxing, thirty years old, I remember that Chief Zheng likes this mouthful." Chen Miao personally poured wine for Zheng Jiayuan.
"Thank you for remembering that." Zheng Jiayuan bowed slightly.
"Chief Zheng took a lot of care of Sanshui in office, otherwise I would have been secretly down." Chen Miao raised her glass and said, "I've always remembered this favor." ”
"Don't talk about it, with your current power and status, I'm afraid no one can do anything to you." Zheng Jiayuan smiled.
"Thank you Director Lin for being able to afford it and entrust him with a heavy responsibility." Chen Miao smiled faintly.
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Don't say polite words, I ask Mr. Xu Caichen to ask you to meet, in addition to talking about the old relationship, there is one more thing you can help?" Zheng Jiayuan went straight to the point.
"Chief Zheng, please speak, I will definitely not shirk those who can help within the scope of my authority." Chen Miao said.
"Wu Xin is in your hands, right?"
"Chief Zheng, let's just say it, what do you want to do?" Chen Miao picked up the wine glass, stared slightly, put it down gently, raised his head slightly, and looked at Zheng Jiayuandao.
"Wu Xin is no longer of any use value to you, let's exchange, right?"
"Swap?"
Chen Miao knew what Zheng Jiayuan meant, and it was not unusual for the military commander to have a secret deal with No. 76 in exchange for "prisoners".
There are people on both sides who have been captured in action, so the best thing to do is to exchange "prisoners", this kind of thing is very common, even if there is a fight of life and death on the battlefield one moment, and the exchange of prisoners of war on both sides in the next second, this also happens from time to time.
"Yes, a hostage exchange."
"Chief Zheng, Miss Wu Xin is going to be a criminal, and she was arrested by the special high school, so I don't have the right to deal with it." Chen Miao shook her head slightly.
"However, you have the right to suggest, and the weight is not small, especially in front of Sakurako Ikeuchi." Zheng Jiayuan said as he glanced meaningfully at the door of the small office lounge behind Chen Miao.
"Well, who do you want to change?"
"Su Qing."
"Chief Zheng, you are a joke, Su Qing is originally your person, you use your people to exchange with us for the key criminals we caught, is this ridiculous?" Chen Miao sneered.
"Su Qing was rebelled by you, he rebelled, and he also became your insider, she is now your person, if you don't save her, she will be executed soon." Zheng Jiayuan said, "You know the family rules of the military commander, what will happen to traitors?" ”
"Even so, what does her death have to do with me?"
"You can ignore Su Qing's life or death, but if this matter spreads, will anyone be willing to die for you?" Zheng Jiayuan asked.
"Chief Zheng, isn't Wu Xin also a traitor to you, even if she goes back, according to the rules of the military commander's family, won't she also have to be executed?" Chen Miao asked rhetorically.
"So do you change it or not?" Zheng Jiayuan took a sip of the wine glass, took a bite of the dish with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and chewed it in a big gulp.
"I can't be the master of this, can you give me a little time?" Chen Miao pondered for a moment.
"Yes, is three days enough?" Zheng Jiayuan put down his chopsticks and asked.
Chen Miao nodded.
"I heard that Boss Qin gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses for you?" Zheng Jiayuan didn't regard Chen Miao as an enemy at all, and ate and drank in front of him.
"Hmm."
"Congratulations, I didn't bring any gifts today, I have a chance to make up for it later." Zheng Jiayuan smiled.
"I have a heart."
"Chief Zheng, the batch of tobacco that Kodama Yoko threw away is in your hands, right?" Chen Miao asked.
"You've guessed everything, so why bother asking?"
"There is so much tobacco and soil, even if you rob it, you can't transport it, why don't we make another deal?" Chen Miao said slowly.
"What, you want to do this business too?"
"No, I'm just a matchmaker, Mr. Kodama wants to spend a sum of money to buy this batch of tobacco soil from you, what do you think?" Chen Miao said.
"It's a good deal, I don't have to take the risk, and I don't necessarily make less money in the end than if I sold it to you directly." Zheng Jiayuan smiled.
"200,000 oceans, converted into US dollars."
"I'll think about it." Zheng Jiayuan didn't agree immediately, and ate a bite of the dish by himself.
Such a big matter, yes, think about it seriously, if Zheng Jiayuan agrees, I am afraid that I have communicated before, and I am afraid that I will not be able to believe it.
The rest of the time is just idle talk, basically the truth is a lie, and the feelings are just false.
"Thank you for your hospitality, it's time for me to take my leave." After eating and drinking, Zheng Jiayuan got up and said.
"I welcome Chief Zheng here to come over at any time."
"Well, I'll be here when I have time." Zheng Jiayuan did not refuse, or rather, he was just perfunctory and said some polite words.
"Please."
Chen Miao just sent the person to the door, and then instructed Ah Gen to personally send the person downstairs.
……
Crunch!
The side door of the office lounge was pulled open from the inside, and a slender figure walked out from inside, who was Sakurako Ikeuchi not in?
"Did Miss Sakurako hear it?" Chen Miao took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, poured two glasses of wine, handed one to Sakurako in the pool, and held one in his hand.
"Sanshuijun, it seems that Wu Xin is very important to him."
"But the one we have isn't real." Chen Miao said, "It's easy to fool Su Qing, after all, they haven't talked about it before, but Zheng Jiayuan is different, their relationship is very close." ”
"Yes, Zheng Jiayuan may not believe Wu Xin in our hands, she exchanged Su Qing for it, this is a temptation." Sakurako Ikeuchi judged.
"I'm in line with Sakurako-sang's judgment." Chen Miao nodded, "The problem is, now he kicked the ball into our hands." ”
"yes." Ikeuchi Sakurako said, "Within three days, can we find the real Wu Xin?" ”
Chen Miao shook her head.
Don't say three days, it's three months, don't think about finding it for three years, people are not in Shanghai at all, how to find it?
"You can mention one or two harsh conditions, and if you delay a little, you can treat the symptoms but not the root cause, unless we find the real Wu Xin and exchange it with it, otherwise, we can only take a risk." Chen Miao said.
"What if we just started arresting someone?" Ikeuchi Sakurako suddenly changed her words and looked at Chen Miao with burning eyes.
"If we had that thought, I'm afraid he wouldn't be here tonight." Chen Miao said, "With what I know about him, he won't do anything he is not sure of." ”
Ikeuchi Sakurako nodded, this is the concession, and although it is the place chosen by Zheng Jiayuan, it is still Chen Miao's territory, but a person of his status will definitely not come over.
I will definitely make all the arrangements in advance, and even arrange people to enter the Lido in advance.
"Sanshuijun, let me go back and think about it, you wait for my call." Sakurako Ikeuchi put down her glass and bowed slightly.
"Okay."
Seeing Sakurako leave in the pool, Chen Miao's eyes shrank slightly.
"Agen, in the last month, how many new dancers have been stationed in our dance hall?" Chen Miao called Ah Gen to him and asked.
"There are seven or eight, right?"
"Do you have a list or information?" Chen Miao asked.
"Yes, what are you?" Ah Gen asked strangely, Chen Miao had never asked about these things, why was he suddenly interested in the dancers in the audience.
"I want to find someone, you can just get me the list and information." Chen Miao commanded.
"Okay."
Agen is the general manager, and it is not a matter of minutes to ask for a few copies of the dancer's information, of course, he also told the foreman to keep it secret.
After a while, Agen took the information, a total of seven people,
"In addition to the dancers, there are also waiters who have recently come to apply for jobs, as well as people from the sanitation and cleaning departments and the kitchen department, and the information and lists of these people have been brought to me, and they must also be kept confidential." Chen Miao gave him a new task.
"Got it, third brother." Although he didn't know what Chen Miao wanted to do, Ah Gen still did it, and it didn't take long for the list and information of almost seventeen or eighteen people to be gathered in front of Chen Miao.
"You go and get busy, leave me alone, Xiao Qi is here, let him come up to me directly." Chen Miao sat down and looked at the information of these people seriously.
