To put it bluntly, the Secret Service is the ears and eyes of Jin Feng and Ninth Princess, but has no hands or feet.
Even so, Jin Feng was prepared to ban the Secret Service after transportation and communications developed and a more complete judicial system was established.
As a senior member of the Sichuan-Sichuan regime, Tang Xiaobei often traveled abroad, so he naturally knew about the existence of the Secret Service.
He took the token from the guard captain and checked it to make sure it was genuine, then nodded towards the guard captain.
"Go over there!"
The guard captain finally got out of the way, but kept his hand on the handle of the knife.
The other guards around him also grabbed their weapons and were ready to take action at any time.
The woman also knew Tang Xiaobei's identity and did not dare to get too close. She stopped when she was only ten feet away from Tang Xiaobei.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Tang Xiaobei asked.
The woman did not answer, but asked: "Excuse me, madam, did Mr. Jin ask Mr. Hong to help gather fishermen and set up a fishing team to collect foot-binding grass today?"
"How do you know this?" Tang Xiaobei asked with a frown.
Although this matter cannot be said to be a secret, after all, it is a plan that Jin Feng just made, and not many people know about it.
In the blink of an eye, an unrelated woman from the fishing village knew about it...
This made Tang Xiaobei feel that the confidentiality measures at the shipyard were really poor.
"To answer Madam, I am a secret agent trained by Mr. Han. Three months ago, I developed a downline who is a very prestigious clan elder in Yuxi Town."
The woman said: "I knew just now that the clan elder was called to a meeting by Mr. Hong's steward Hong Er to discuss the matter."
When Jin Feng had an accident in the East China Sea, Princess Ninth immediately sent Han Feng over to find Jin Feng's whereabouts and investigate the cause of the accident.
Later, Jin Feng returned from the sea and realized that the intelligence and confidentiality work at the dock was not ideal, so he asked Han Feng to stay and re-establish and reorganize the intelligence agency.
This woman was developed by Han Feng at that time.
Then this woman developed her own downline.
Although the clan elders were not from the wealthy squire family, they were all well-known and prestigious elders in the local area. Tang Xiaobei was a little surprised that this woman, who looked unattractive, was able to develop a clan elder into a downline.
But without two brushes, Han Feng would not choose her as a spy, so Tang Xiaobei didn't think too much, but nodded and said: "This is the case, what's the matter?"
"Madam, in my humble opinion, I would venture to guess that the purpose of setting up the fishing team is to find a way out for the fishermen, right?"
"Yes," Tang Xiaobei nodded again.
"Sir, you really care about the country and the people," the woman first praised Jin Feng, and then changed the topic: "It's a pity that you misjudged the wrong person!"
"What do you mean?" Tang Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman coldly.
Jin Feng left this matter to Hong Taoping to handle. The woman said this, obviously she was talking about Hong Taoping.
Although Tang Xiaobei had no friendship with Hong Taoping, he knew that Jin Feng admired him very much and that the dockyard was also very important to Jin Feng.
The woman's current words are highly suspected of instigating a relationship between Jin Feng and Hong Taoping.
"Madam, don't think too much, I'm not talking about Young Master Hong, but Hong Er!"
The woman noticed something was wrong in Tang Xiaobei's eyes, and quickly said: "According to my informant, Hong Er asked them to help gather fishermen, tell them that foot-binding grass is edible, and help count the number of fishermen and fishing boats willing to join the fishing team.
.
However, Hong Er reminded the clan elders not to tell the fishermen that it was Mr. Jin who discovered the edible foot-binding grass, and not to say that it was Mr. Jin who requested the formation of the fishing team. He also asked the clan elders to find ways to guide the fishermen and make them feel that the fishing team is
The Hong family saw how pitiful the fishermen were, so they took the lead in establishing it!
As a reward, Hong Er promised the clan elders that after the fishing team is established, the clan elders can secretly transport some foot-binding grass ashore, and he will arrange for people to turn a blind eye..."
Before the woman finished speaking, Qing Mulan was so angry that her eyebrows stood up: "This Hong Er is so brave!"
Although Tang Xiaobei didn't have an attack, his face was so cold that water dripped from his face.
The fact that kelp can be eaten was obviously discovered by Jin Feng, and it was Jin Feng who proposed the formation of a fishing team. However, Hong Er deliberately weakened Jin Feng's existence, and instead guided and emphasized the role of the Hong family in it. The purpose is self-evident - to strengthen Hong Er.
Home’s local influence!
The dockyard is so important to Jin Feng. If something happens in the future and the local people listen to the Hong family but not to Jin Feng, the consequences will be too serious!
If it was two years ago, if Tang Xiaobei knew about this, he would have rushed to Hong Taoping's house to confront Hong Er.
But in the more than two years since he took charge of the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce, Tang Xiaobei has matured a lot.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, he turned to look at the woman: "Why didn't you report it to me instead of coming to see me?"
Although Tang Xiaobei knew about the Secret Intelligence Department, the Secret Intelligence Department and the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce were two completely independent departments. According to the procedure, the woman should go to her superior and report the matter instead of coming to Tang Xiaobei.
"My superior is Mr. Han. I don't know where he is now. I can only report the news to Jinchuan, and then forward it to Mr. Han from the headquarters. However, Hong Er and the clan elders have already begun to gather the fishermen, waiting for me to report.
Jinchuan, if the headquarters gives instructions again, it will be too late to stop them!"
The woman explained: "I originally wanted to inform the husband, but the security at the dock is too strict now, and it is impossible for me to see the husband. I have no choice but to come to the madam!"
I know that this is not in accordance with the procedures, but the situation is urgent, and I hope you will forgive me, madam!"
"You did the right thing. When I see Han Feng later, I will explain to him the situation and your performance."
Tang Xiaobei said calmly.
"Thank you, madam!" When the woman heard this, a hint of joy flashed in the corner of her eyes.
Tang Xiaobei is Jin Feng's wife and the head of the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce. The weight of what she says in front of Han Feng can be imagined.
This was one of the reasons why she came to Tang Xiaobei.
"Don't thank me. I won't say nice things for you. I just told Han Feng the truth about the situation."
Tang Xiaobei continued: "In addition, when reporting on the situation in the future, just describe the situation in detail and don't sell it."
The woman's report just now contained obvious subjective emotions, as if she was guiding Tang Xiaobei's thoughts.
For a qualified spy, this should not happen.
They are just the eyes and ears of Jin Feng and Ninth Princess. Eyes and ears cannot think. They only need to objectively report what they see and hear.
"Yes, I understand!" The woman quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
"Okay, you can go back, I will handle this matter!"
Tang Xiaobei waved his hand to signal the woman to leave, then he stopped putting away the fishing rod, turned around and walked back.
