Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

Ah Fu didn't know why Chen Yang suddenly became interested in antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

However, since the boss had given the order, he didn't dare to ask the reason. He just took the hat and ran out.

After waiting for more than an hour, Chen Yang was almost falling asleep, when Ah Fu came running back, panting, holding a long box.

"Boss, do you want to sell this painting?"

Seeing Chen Yang frowning, Ah Fu quickly explained: "Boss, don't misunderstand me."

"Mr. Fang said that he paid a high price for this painting. If he were to sell it, the asking price would be at least 150,000 yuan."

"The maximum you can offer is 20,000. Don't buy it for less than that."

Chen Yang curled his lips and said disdainfully: "What? He thinks I'm on my first day out on the road, and I don't know the price of this painting?"

Ah Fu's expression froze for a moment, and he smiled awkwardly, "Second Master is just worried that you don't understand the market situation, and he definitely has no other intentions."

Taking the ancient painting, Chen Yang returned to the company and sat in the office planning how to choose a suitable ambush site.

The entire Shanghai market is now dominated by Japanese people, and assassinating a consul will definitely cause a big sensation.

Therefore, neither the Chinese Quarter nor the International Settlement was suitable. Once the consul was assassinated, the gendarmerie and the police would arrive at the scene quickly, making retreat difficult.

Then, only the French Concession is left.

Oh, Chen Yang’s eyes lit up and he suddenly thought of the Caesar’s restaurant in the French Concession.

This is a French restaurant located on Jinxian Road.

Jinxian Road is a major road that runs through the French Concession. It is well connected and the killers can retreat calmly after completing their mission.

Moreover, the police station in the French Concession was under the command of the French Municipal Council, and the Japanese could not command it all at once.

Even if the consul was assassinated, it would be impossible to form a large-scale roundup all at once.

The most important thing is that Chen Yang is well-connected in the French Concession, as his elder brother-in-law is the president of the Pierre & Co.

Those old guys in the Municipal Council still have to give him face...

Having made up his mind, Chen Yang called Bernard and asked him to go to Caesar's restaurant on the weekend night.

Then he ran to the grocery store on the next street and used a pay phone to inform Song Jiayu to make arrangements.

Of course, he did not tell Song Jiayu the specific location of the meal.

After all, I still don't trust those idiots in the Military Control Commission. If they mess up, I will be implicated...

He only said that Kuroda Yusuke might appear on Jinxian Road on weekend nights. As for how the Military Control Commission would choose to follow and ambush him, that was their business.

After receiving the news, Song Jiayu quickly notified the headquarters, which then passed the information to the secret telegram department of the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station.

The Zangfeng team has always had a single line of communication with the headquarters, and the code book and radio frequency in Song Jiayu's hand are unique.

Even if other groups wanted to contact them, they would not be able to do so because their code book was only known by two people: the headquarters and the telegraph operator of the Zangfeng group.

Two days passed in a flash.

On the weekend, Chen Yang specially called George and Haley.

George originally didn't like dealing with Bernard. This German guy was very methodical and his poor Chinese gave him a headache.

Unable to resist Chen Yang's continued persuasion, he said that Mr. Kuroda, the consul of the Chinese Embassy in China would also be there.

George agreed reluctantly.

Haley's situation was much simpler. Ever since the last incident, she generally wouldn't ask too many questions about things Chen Yang asked her to do, nor would she likely refuse.

At six o'clock in the evening, in the luxurious box on the second floor of Caesar Restaurant.

Haley and Chen Yang took turns feeding each other the appetizer cake.

George was envious of the affectionate look between them.

George's wife Corina Morton is the eldest daughter of Mr. Hamondi of the French Morton family. Their marriage is a political one and there is no love between them.

Ever since George took over old Pierre's business and settled in China, the two have been spending less and less time together.

Corina did come to China for a while, but she was not used to the lifestyle here and returned home after a few months.

Apart from the routine overseas calls once a month, George had never enjoyed any love.

Seeing the sweet interaction between the two, George suddenly felt like someone had taken away the flowers he had grown for many years, along with the flowerpot...

"Hey, Chen, I haven't asked you yet, when are you going to get engaged to Hailey..."

Uh, Chen Yang almost choked on the cake...

"Gudong, gulp." He took several big gulps of water before he swallowed the cake.

"George, what have you thought of now? Can you please stop thinking about things one by one?" Haley pouted and said unhappily.

"Chen Yang and I are doing fine, we have a good relationship and a good life. Let's just get through the sweet period of love first."

"Tsk tsk tsk, Haley, is that something a girl would say?" George said unhappily, "Our family is at least an upper-class aristocrat. If you two have a child before you get married, wouldn't that be embarrassing?"

"Grandma will definitely be unhappy."

"George, don't worry." Chen Yang took a breath and said, "Once we sell this material, I will buy a house in the concession."

"I will definitely give Hailey a grand engagement ceremony when the time comes..."

"Hey, who of you is getting engaged?" Just as Chen Yang finished speaking, a familiar male voice came from the door.

Yusuke Kuroda, wearing a well-fitting suit, walked into the box with the military attaché Ken Terao, whom he had met last time.

"Mr. Chen, you are getting engaged. Does Mrs. Yamamoto know?"

Chen Yang was slightly stunned. This Yusuke Kuroda could actually understand French, and he spoke it quite well.

To be able to become a consul, this guy really has some skills.

"Oh, Kuroda-kun, I haven't had time to inform Mrs. Yamamoto yet."

Chen Yang smiled and said, "By the way, Mr. Bernard, who I made an appointment with, why are you here?"

Hearing this, Kuroda Yusuke said with a smile: "Bernard said that you have a painting of Shen Zhou's "Thousand-armed and Thousand-eyed Guanyin" and I came here specially to appreciate it..."

"Shen Zhou is my favorite Chinese painter. His painting style is soft and varied, and his artistic conception is profound. I have been imitating his paintings since I was a teenager. Unfortunately, after decades of wasting time, I still cannot learn his essence at this age."

"Shame on you, shame on you..."

"Mr. Chen, I think you won't mind my intrusive visit..."

Chen Yang thought to himself, of course I don't mind, I'm just afraid that if you come here, you won't be able to go back, will you mind then...

"Dear, who is Mrs. Yamamoto this gentleman is talking about?" Hailey asked curiously, "Why do we have to inform her of our engagement?"

Chen Yang frowned slightly and said: "Mrs. Yamamoto is my mother's sister, we should call her aunt..."

George was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "Chen, didn't you say that there is no one at home?"

"When did another aunt come out..."
