Chapter 653: Understanding
After Zhu Muyun and Deng Xiangtao separated, they returned to the room, and after removing their makeup, they carefully packed all their things into the box they carried. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Then, he went below and called Ma Xingbiao in the second place. Since Chen Zhonghu, who is alias Zhao Guoqiang, has been taken away by the people of the French Concession Patrol Department, he can naturally only find a patrol to solve the problem.
"Ma Xingbiao? I'm Zhu Muyun. Zhu Muyun said with a deep groan.
"Take a seat." Ma Xingbiao said respectfully. He had heard about the afternoon. Afterwards, he also read the telegram, but fortunately he was not in Cory, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with it if he was lying in a kimono.
"I see that you are now seconded to the special high class, and you won't see anyone all day anyway." Zhu Muyun said lightly that Ma Xingbiao had been responsible for the communication with Anlu before, and Zhu Muyun was also relieved to hand it over to Ma Xingbiao. Today, if Luo Shuangyan hadn't taken the initiative to find herself, I'm afraid she would have missed the news.
The actions of the Japanese army will directly affect the results of the battle in Pingba. If the transmission of intelligence is delayed because of Ma Xingbiao, and even leads to increased casualties in the New Fourth Army, who will bear this responsibility? A few hours late in intelligence, and a few hours earlier, it is very likely that the outcome of this battle will be decided.
Of course, this is not the reason why Zhu Muyun used this tone to talk to Ma Xingbiao. He is here to complete the task assigned by Deng Xiangtao: to rescue the intelligence officers of the Ninth War Zone. If you want to rescue the intelligence officers of the Ninth War Zone, the best way is to find patrols in the French Concession.
"Don't you dare, sit down, my loyalty to you can be seen by heaven and earth. Today, I'm going to investigate the case. According to investigation, Li Yanhan of the Salt Political Bureau was involved in salt smuggling. Ma Xingbiao said firmly. If it weren't for this case, I'm afraid he wouldn't have delayed Zhu Muyun's matter.
"Don't talk nonsense about this kind of chasing after the wind and shadows. I'll talk about this when I get back. Zhu Muyun quickly interrupted Ma Xingbiao's words, this kind of thing is really inconvenient to say on the phone.
Besides, who is Li Yanhan? His father, Li Fang, the head of the Nake Xinmin Association, and his eldest brother Li Weihan, are currently the commissioner of the Foreign Affairs Office. And Li Yanhan is a non-commissioned officer student studying in Japan. It is said that he has a very good relationship with Minister Shibayama of the Secret Service Headquarters. It was precisely because of the support of Shibayama and Asa that he was able to serve as the director of the salt administration.
Guxing's salt political situation, oil and water are no worse than the economic department of the Political Security Bureau. Since the implementation of the grain control system in Guxing, the limited distribution of salt has also been implemented. It is stipulated that Chinese can only buy one pound per person per month, and then they will be discounted by eight or five percent. Sell military tickets of two cents and five cents per catty.
At that time, the household registration was not accurate, and the Salt Administration Bureau could report that the account received more salt, and the excess salt was handed over to private traders for resale at a black price of 1 to 3 yuan per catty. Before the war, there were more than one million people in Guxing, and after the Japanese occupation, there were still nearly one million people. With such a large population, the amount of salt needed per month is an astronomical amount.
And that's just domestic sales, but also export sales. The Salt Administration Bureau has jurisdiction over the Salt Selling Association, which has two kinds of members: A and B. Class A member, tube salt for export. Class B members, the city's salt is distributed and sold according to the account. Type B members, through the floating account, more salt. Class A members, on the other hand, can reuse salt transportation licenses for fair smuggling.
Of course, Zhu Muyun knows the latter situation. How could this kind of thing be hidden from him? When he first took over the Economic Department, Zhu Muyun looked at the accounts of various investigation departments very carefully. He has a super good memory, and no matter how complicated the accounts are, he only needs to read them once and remember them all.
These reusable salt transport licenses could not hide from his keen eyes. It's just that at the beginning, Zhu Muyun didn't break through. After he had enough information, he had a showdown with the people of the Salt Guild. Zhu Muyun is the director of the Economic Department, and all the salt must pass through his hands. If Zhu Muyun is not allowed to get a piece of the pie, those things will inevitably not be done well.
Ma Xingbiao didn't know the mystery of this, and Zhu Muyun naturally couldn't let him talk nonsense. Besides, this kind of thing doesn't belong to Ma Xingbiao's second branch investigation. His mission was to arrest anti-Japanese elements.
"Yes. I'll report back in detail when I get back. Ma Xingbiao said busily.
"I'm in Deming Hotel now, I forgot to bring my wallet today, I want to accompany Xinyu to dinner, you send someone to send me some money." Zhu Muyun said slowly.
"No problem, I'll send someone right away." Ma Xingbiao was stunned, but said immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Ma Xingbiao prepared to go to the General Affairs Section. He knew that Liu Zehua from the General Affairs Section was arranged by Zhu Muyun to enter the second department. At present, Liu Zehua has served as the deputy section chief, and is actually responsible for the work of the General Affairs Section. Since Zhu Muyun is short of money, he went to Liu Zehua to receive it.
However, when Ma Xingbiao was about to walk to the office of the General Affairs Division, he suddenly stopped. He stood in the hallway and lit a cigarette. Zhu Muyun obviously called Liu Zehua directly, why did he call himself? I'm not the head of the General Affairs Section. Besides, the relationship between Liu Zehua and Zhu Muyun may not be as good as himself. Could it be that Zhu Muyun is confused?
Wrong. If Zhu Muyun is confused, how can he be the director? And the head of two divisions? Although he has not been working under Zhu Muyun for a long time, Ma Xingbiao still knows a little about him. Zhu Muyun looks incompetent, but in fact, he is very careful. As long as it is something he has confessed, if it is not done, he will definitely ask for it.
"Chief Ma, what's wrong?" Watson happened to go out and saw Ma Xingbiao standing outside the door, and asked in surprise.
"It's okay, it's okay." Ma Xingbiao said stupidly that he didn't mention Zhu Muyun's request for money, turned around and left.
After returning to the office, Ma Xingbiao suddenly understood that Zhu Muyun called him, not to ask him to go to the General Affairs Department to receive money, nor to send money himself, but to ask others to send him money! Yes, it must be that!
Ma Xingbiao suddenly remembered that he had once mentioned to Zhu Muyun that Wei Chi Qingju of the French Concession Patrol Department wanted to invite Zhu Muyun to dinner, but he never had the opportunity. Isn't that a great opportunity today? Ma Xingbiao felt that it seemed that his brain was still not good, he was several beats slower, and he couldn't keep up with Zhu Muyun's train of thought at all.
Ma Xingbiao immediately called Yu Chi Qingju: "Old Captain, I'm Ma Xingbiao." "Yu Chi Qingju is surnamed "Wei Chi", but Ma Xingbiao likes to call him "Old Captain" every time. Yu Chi Qingju had no choice but to let him go.
"Hello Chief Mako." When Yu Chi Qingju heard Ma Xingbiao's voice, he immediately said respectfully. Recently, when he heard some bad news, he was very upset.
"Captain, don't say that my brother doesn't take care of you. We are seated at the Deming Hotel. I was going to have dinner with a beautiful woman in the evening and forgot to bring my wallet. Originally, I asked me to send money, I thought, aren't you in the French Concession? Cheap for you. Ma Xingbiao said with a smile.
"Director Zhu at the Deming Hotel?" When Yu Chi Qingju heard this, his eyes lit up. He told Ma Xingbiao many times that he wanted to have a meal with Zhu Muyun, but so far, Zhu Muyun has never agreed.
"Yes, you hurry over." Ma Xingbiao admonished. He is giving Yu Chi Qingju an opportunity to get close to Zhu Muyun. Such an opportunity is hard to buy.
"Brother, thank you. The next time you come to my Golden Gate Ballroom, I will definitely find you the most beautiful lady. Yu Chi Qingju said happily. He wanted to make friends with Zhu Muyun many times, but he didn't find the opportunity.
"That's what you said, I'll go to the Golden Gate Ballroom tonight." As soon as Ma Xingbiao heard this, he immediately drooled.
"I'll say hello to the ballroom later, and as long as you come, it's free at any time." Yu Chi Qingju said respectfully.
When Zhu Muyun saw Yu Chi Qingju, although his face was very surprised, he secretly praised Ma Xingbiao in his heart, and finally understood what he meant. If Ma Xingbiao didn't know to let Yu Chi Qingju come, he would be very disappointed. Shangfeng speaks, and many times he will not say it. Whether or not you can comprehend it depends on your personal cultivation.
"Director Zhu, our lieutenant Chi Qingju, Xi is the French translator of the Patrol Department." Wei Chi Qingju is in his thirties, with a thick head oil on his head, wearing a decent suit, and holding a civilized stick, not like a police detective, but like a gentleman.
"I don't know what Mr. Wei Chi is here, why is it important?" Zhu Muyun let Yu Chi Qingju into the room and asked lightly.
"I am also a confidant with the chief of your department. Knowing that Director Zhu was inconvenient today, I specially asked me to solve Director Zhu's urgent needs. Yu Chi Qingju handed over a mailbox with both hands, which contained two hundred dollars and five hundred fiat currency, which was enough for Zhu Muyun to cope with tonight's expenses.
"Thank you." Zhu Muyun nodded and took the envelope. How much money was in it, he basically knew by touching it.
"This is my business card, in the future, Director Zhu will be in the French Concession, but wherever it is useful, just open your mouth. We are in the French Concession, and it is a bit thin. No matter what, you can do your part. Wei Chi Qingju said proudly that he was one of the Chinese who could mix up in the French Concession. In the French Concession, there are not many Chinese who can mix better than him.
"Mr. Wei Chi is polite." Zhu Muyun put away the business card and said lightly.
"Director Zhu has an appointment with a beautiful woman tonight, and the next time I have a chance, I must let me be the boss and have a good drink." Yu Chi Qingju said with a smile. He knew that Zhu Muyun's mind today was definitely not on him, so he was ready to leave.
"I have a friend who was supposed to meet at the Deming Hotel. However, it was supposed to arrive at noon, but it has not yet come. Mr. Wei Chi, can you help me find it? Zhu Muyun saw that Yu Chi Qingju was leaving, and said suddenly.
"Willing to help." Yu Chiqing was overjoyed, looking for someone to do this kind of thing, but he was good at it.
"His name is Zhao Guoqiang, and he has just arrived in Guxing." Zhu Muyun said slowly.
"Zhao Guoqiang? I remember, please rest assured Director Zhu, there will be results soon. Yu Chi Qingju said solemnly, as long as this person named "Zhao Guoqiang" is still in the French Concession, he will definitely be able to find it.
