"Little monkey, circle the activities of these people." Cheng Qianfan said to Hou Pingliang.
Hou Pingliang took the baton from Cheng Qianfan's hand, pointed at the map and said, "Brother Fan, here."
Hou Pingliang clicked on the map, "Here, and here."
Cheng Qianfan stared at the map and fell into deep thought.
This is an almost oval-shaped activity range, mainly concentrated near Xiangyin Road and Huangxing Road.
"Who do you think these people are?" Cheng Qianfan asked Hou Pingliang.
"Brother Fan, this is the sphere of influence of the Japanese. Are these people related to the Japanese?" Hou Pingliang asked.
"Here." Cheng Qianfan clicked somewhere on the map.
Hou Pingliang took a step forward and leaned forward, "Brother Fan, do you suspect they are from the company?"
Cheng Qianfan frowned and thought, shook his head slightly, and did not answer the question.
After a moment, he pulled his right hand, covering half of the map, and returned to the seat behind the desk to sit down.
He took out half a cigarette from the drawer and threw it to Hou Pingliang.
Cheng Qianfan scratched the scalp under his hair with his little finger, "Since there is nothing wrong with the lipstick, stop staring at Ding Yu."
"Yes!" Hou Pingliang agreed.
"Wujiaochang is a very sensitive place. The Japanese are building large-scale construction projects there, which is very mysterious." Cheng Qianfan played with a cigarette in his hand and said, "This matter is over here, don't continue to stare at those people."
People."
As he said that, he shook his head, "When it comes to Japanese territory, it's always right to be careful."
With one leg raised on the table, Cheng Qianfan snorted, "The attitude towards the Japanese from above..."
He clicked his tongue twice and shook his head, "This big Shanghai will be dominated by the Japanese sooner or later."
"I understand." Hou Pingliang saluted and said.
The French Concession authorities became increasingly cautious and conceding towards matters related to the Japanese, and conveyed their opinions to the patrol house in an undocumented form:
The incident involves Japanese people, so be careful not to stir up trouble lightly.
Wujiaochang is the territory of the Japanese. Brother Fan is worried that those people have some relationship with the Japanese, so he simply ignores them 'for safety reasons'.
After Hou Pingliang left, Cheng Qianfan came to the door and pointed at a patrolman in the corridor.
"I want to take a rest and don't let anyone disturb me."
"Yes!" The inspector quickly stood at attention and saluted, standing outside the door of the deputy chief inspector's office to guard the rest of 'Mr. Xiao Cheng'.
Cheng Qianfan closed the door, walked to the wall, opened the other half of the curtain, and stared at the map, lost in thought.
Starting from the beginning of this year, the Japanese expelled the Chinese people in Wujiaochang and began to build various buildings in Wujiaochang.
In addition to building houses for ordinary Japanese citizens, the Japanese also built several special buildings:
They built a three-story Hengchan Co., Ltd. at the corner of Xiangyin Road and Huangxing Road.
This is the center of the oval activity range that Hou Pingliang pointed out just now.
‘Hengsan Co., Ltd.’?
Cheng Qianfan's expression was serious, his eyes flashing with coldness and anger.
In order to implement its policy of "supporting war with war", the Japanese invaders established various "companies" in the occupied areas.
They classified the main industrial, mining, and transportation industries as "controlled undertakings" and monopolized them by specially established "national policy associations". Those that were not classified as "controlled undertakings" were called "free undertakings" and were allowed to be operated privately by the Japanese.
"Co., Ltd." is called a company, but it is actually carrying out economic plunder on China under the guise of corporate management and backed by violence.
These ‘companies’ can be said to have followed closely in the footsteps of the Japanese invaders, extending the tentacles of economic aggression to every corner of the occupied areas.
For example, in April this year, Japan established the so-called Huazhong Mining Co., Ltd., whose assets mainly consist of plundering iron ore, fluorspar ore, etc. in Zhejiang, Anhui, and Jiangsu, China.
In June of this year, the Japanese established Huazhong Hydropower Co., Ltd., and its assets consisted of seizing power plants, water plants, Shanghai gas companies, etc. outside the Shanghai Concession in Nanjing, Qishuyan, Hangzhou, Zhenjiang, Wuhu, Anqing and other places.
Immediately afterwards, the Japanese established the Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. a month later. Most of the sericulture, silk reeling and other industries in Shanghai, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang occupied by the Japanese army were plundered and controlled by this company.
These companies, large and small, plunder the Chinese people. It’s a shame (not a typo).
According to some documents that Cheng Qianfan saw from Imamura Hyoutarou, in the occupied areas, taking the occupied areas of North China as an example, some companies in order to "maintain the stability of the occupied areas" ingeniously proposed the idea of a Sino-Japanese joint venture company.
plan.
For example, Japan's Tianjin Co., Ltd. stipulates that in each of its industries, China invests 51% and Japan invests 49%.
The so-called investment in Japan is often made with waste paper such as military bills and corporate bonds.
The management rights and products of these companies are controlled by Japan, and most of the profits belong to them.
This so-called "Sino-Japanese joint venture" is a big scam by the Japanese invaders to monopolize China's industrial and mining enterprises and use China's human, material and financial resources to squeeze the blood and sweat of the Chinese people.
According to the Company Organization Law enacted by the Japanese government, these companies are "special legal persons limited by shares".
The so-called "special legal person" means that the Japanese government has direct supervision and control over the company.
For example, it is stipulated that "When the Japanese government deems it necessary to make unified adjustments to the business of the Central China Revitalization Company for national defense and to promote the economic development of Central China, it may issue an order to supervise it."
“If the Japanese government considers that the resolution of the company or the behavior of the supervisory directors violates the company’s rules or is harmful to the public interest, it may cancel the resolution or remove the directors from their duties.”
The Japanese government has set up a special supervisory officer for the company, etc.
Therefore, the so-called Corporation is essentially a combination of Japanese warlords and chaebols, serving Japan's crimes of aggression.
Cheng Qianfan was not sure whether these people had anything to do with Hengsan Co., Ltd.
However, the appearance of these people came into his eyes and naturally aroused his suspicion and vigilance.
This incident was a follow-up to his secret meeting with Li Cuiqun. Because of the nature of that meeting, he deliberately arranged for Hou Pingliang to accompany him to the nightclub.
However, Hou Pingliang was only his confidant in the patrol room and did not know his other identity, so he was not suitable to continue the investigation.
Therefore, he ordered Hou Pingliang to say, "This matter ends here."
The matter will be secretly investigated by the Shanghai Special Intelligence Team in the follow-up.
Cheng Qianfan's eyes turned to the other three locations on the map.
In addition to building the office building of Hengchan Co., Ltd. at the corner of Xiangyin Road and Huangxing Road, the Japanese also built a two-story office building for the Central China Expeditionary Force Headquarters at the corner of Handan Road and Siping Road.
One hundred and fifty sixty foreign-style houses were built along Siping Road and Huangxing Road.
An engineering corps dormitory was built on Zhengsu Road.
Wujiaochang covers an area of less than 16 square kilometers. From the office building of Hengsan Co., Ltd. as the center, it does not take long to travel to the other three locations.
Cheng Qianfan's eyes narrowed.
He flattened the baton in his hand and 'drawn' a line with Hengsan Co., Ltd. as the end point and the Central China Japanese Army Dispatch Force Headquarters as the end point.
Cheng Qianfan lit the cigarette in his mouth and took a puff. He stared at the map, and the smoke he exhaled was like a faint mist floating on the map.
…
"Two things." Cheng Qianfan took the vinegar pot handed over by Hao Zai, poured a little into the noodle bowl, stirred it with chopsticks, took a careful sip of the noodle soup, and then let out a comfortable sigh, his eyebrows twitching.
Stretch out.
The store owner didn't dare to deceive 'Mr. Xiao Cheng', the vinegar was not diluted with water.
Huchi, wheeze.
Hao Zai ate the noodles with big mouthfuls.
"Slow down." Cheng Qianfan knocked on the noodle bowl, "The first thing is to arrange for a smart brother to go to Xian Ledu and keep an eye on Ding Yu secretly."
"Do you need to take action?" Hao Zai wiped his mouth and asked.
"No, no matter what Ding Yu does, don't act rashly. His task is to keep an eye on people, just use his eyes and ears to see what Ding Yu does and what he says." Cheng Qianfan said.
"I understand." Hao Zai nodded.
"The second thing." Cheng Qianfan took a mouthful of sweet garlic, nodded with satisfaction, and continued, "According to Little Monkey's investigation, there is a group of people who seem to be secretly watching Ding Yu."
"Brother Fan, who are these people?"
"I don't know yet." Cheng Qianfan said after taking a few mouthfuls of noodles, "However, this group of people will be active near Wujiaochang."
"Japanese?" Hao Zai raised his head and asked.
"We can't be sure." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "Have someone keep an eye on this group of people to see where they came from."
"yes."
"Wujiaochang is the territory of the Japanese, so be careful." Cheng Qianfan said, "Because the identity of this group of people cannot be determined, this is the most difficult thing, so being cautious is the first priority."
"Yes." Hao Zai nodded.
Cheng Qianfan paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and then added, "The people who are staring at Ding Yu and the people who are staring at Wujiaochang don't know each other."
"I understand." Hao Zai nodded.
…
Xian Ledu.
"Sister Na, my lipstick was indeed stolen." Ding Yu twisted her waist, walked over and whispered, and then she blew a kiss in response to the paunchy man.
Hu Na didn't speak. She seemed drunk, staring at the goblet in her hand with some confusion.
"If Sister Na hadn't reminded me that I had changed my lipstick in advance, it would have been terrible." Ding Yu took the wine glass from Hu Na's hand and said, "Sister Na, stop drinking. If you drink any more, you will get drunk."
"Give me, give me the wine glass." Hu Na was drunk and reached for the wine glass, but it was shaky. Ding Yu held her down and sat on the sofa.
"Did Cheng Qianfan's people do it?" Hu Na pretended to be dissatisfied and pushed Ding Yu and whispered.
"I don't know." Ding Yu shook his head, "But after thinking about it, only Cheng Qianfan's people have this motive."
"Ha~" Hu Na sneered, "This 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' is more cautious and cunning than we imagined."
She sneered in her heart when she thought of how confident and confident Su Chende was when he made this plan, and how he had "a grasp on Cheng Qianfan".
"Cheng Qianfan is the leader of the patrol unit trained by Qin Detai. Qin Detai himself has already left in despair. There is no need to worry too much about a little wimp like Cheng Qianfan."
Thinking of the way Su Chende said these words triumphantly, Hu Na felt irritated.
After Su Chende took office, his style was more radical than that of his predecessor, Tan Detai.
Not only that, Su Chende carried out some actions to detoxify the surviving personnel of the Central Bureau of Statistics Shanghai Station.
In his words, he intentionally or unintentionally belittled Qin Detai and elevated himself.
As for Cheng Qianfan, Su Chende's attitude is:
The reason why Cheng Qianfan has the power he has now is because he can please the French and secretly get close to the Japanese.
This person was a compromise between the Japanese and the French. It was a matter of luck. In fact, Cheng Qianfan's ability was average.
Hu Na has a different view on this. In her opinion, even Su Chende's view has some truth, but being able to deal with the French and Japanese at the same time makes the two powers nod their approval.
A character, which in itself shows the extraordinary ability of this 'Mr. Xiao Cheng'.
However, Hu Na was surprised to find that the more she reminded Su Chende and told him about the extraordinary qualities of 'Ms. Xiao Cheng', the more impatient Su Chende became.
"Cheng Qianfan is more powerful than we imagined." Hu Na finally 'snatched' the wine glass from Ding Yu's hand. She couldn't wait to take a sip and whispered, "You must be more careful and don't take the initiative to approach recently.
Cheng Qianfan."
"Yes." Ding Yu nodded.
…
Hongkong.
Consulate General of Japan in Hong Kong.
A man wrapped up in a trench coat approached the guards of the Consulate General.
"Stop." Two Japanese guards raised their bayonets and stopped the intruder with a stern voice.
"I have important information that I want to present to Consul General Toyichi Nakamura." The man raised a document in his hand and said in a hoarse voice.
A Japanese guard stepped forward, took the certificate and looked at it carefully.
"Toyokawa Bokuto, manager of the Maritime Department of Hanagang Co., Ltd." The Japanese guard looked at the man with a scrutinizing look.
"You can call Consul General Toyichi Nakamura," Toyokawa Bokuto said.
The guard walked to the guard box, picked up the phone receiver, and began to draw numbers.
Soon, the guard returned and returned the ID with both hands, "Mr. Toyokawa, please follow me."
About a quarter of an hour later.
Toyokawa Bokuto held the water glass in his hands with both hands, feeling the warmth of the hot water in the water glass, and he sighed with satisfaction.
At this time, the sound of footsteps came.
"Bokuto, I introduced you to that Chinese doctor with superb medical skills. Didn't you go ask him for diagnosis and treatment?" Nakamura Toyichi heard Toyokawa Bokuto's coughing sound and asked.
Toyokawa Bokuto suffers from body cold and is naturally afraid of the cold. Although it is early November, Toyokawa Bokuto is already wearing thick cotton clothes and a windbreaker when traveling.
"The Chinese doctor found out that I was Japanese and was unwilling to treat me." Toyokawa Bokuto shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about it for now. Your Excellency, I have something important to report to you."
"What's the matter?" Toyoichi Nakamura asked as he sat on the sofa.
"The people I arranged at the Juntong Hong Kong Station sent out an important piece of information." Toyokawa Bokuto coughed and said.
