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

Shanghai, Fuxing Road, Fengyang Restaurant.

"Brother Xiting, you are so bold that you asked me to meet you here." Ding Cun pushed open the door of the box on the third floor and complained to Gu Linhuai who was fiddling with the chess game.

"Brother Juchuan, please take a seat." Gu Linhuai ignored Ding Cun's complaints and just set up the chessboard...

Ding Cun sighed, sat down opposite Gu Linhuai and said, "Brother Xiting, are you looking for me about Mayor Zhou's matter?"

"Didn't I tell you? Mayor Zhou needs time to think about it."

"You should also know that he is now the Minister of Finance of the Jinling government, which is equivalent to Kong Yongzhi's position in Shancheng. He is the one who is most reluctant to give up high positions and generous salaries. It doesn't seem very wise for you to force him at this time."

Gu Linhuai glanced at Ding Cun and said slowly: "I won't give him time to consider, nor will I give him the right to choose. He must be willing to give up."

"Mayor Zhou is a smart man who knows how to choose in his own favor. Without our help, he will have to be inferior to Dean Chen."

"When Dean Chen takes over, the person he will cultivate will not be Mayor Zhou, but Minister Chen of the Ministry of Transportation."

"If he still wants to pin his hopes on Mr. Wang, then he really deserves to die."

Ding Cun frowned slightly and said, "Brother Xiting, you are so confident. I don't think you can convince Mayor Zhou."

"So, you are not as good as Mayor Zhou," Gu Linhuai said bluntly, "He is much smarter than you."

Ding Cun's face turned red, and he looked at Gu Linhuai and said, "I'd like to hear more details."

Gu Linhuai smiled lightly: "You just said that Mayor Zhou's position can be compared with Kong Yongzhi of Shancheng."

“People see things differently when they are in different positions.”

"Mayor Zhou chose to defect because the Japanese offensive was fierce. Like Mr. Wang, he believed that the Chinese army could not defeat the Japanese."

"There is another reason that is even simpler. He feels that his status is too low and he has been neglected. He is a person who values ​​fame and fortune. In order to climb up, he will naturally give up everything."

"Of course, the most crucial point is just like his current situation. The Japanese did not give him time to consider at the beginning."

"But things are different now. The Pacific War broke out and Japan dragged the giant United States into the water. This is a disaster for Mayor Zhou."

"Disaster?" Ding Cun didn't quite understand what Gu Linhuai meant.

"It's very simple. Whether it's Mayor Zhou or Dean Chen, they turned to the Japanese because they hoped that the Japanese could quickly complete their strategic goal of occupying China and help them get promoted. Even if they are puppets, they are puppets with power."

"But now the Japanese have turned their attention to Southeast Asia. Hundreds of thousands of southern troops have abandoned the Chinese battlefield and turned to attack Southeast Asia."

"This proves that their attitude towards China has changed from complete occupation to gradual advancement."

"The longer the war drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for the Japanese. The combat effectiveness of the Jinling government's army is too poor to complete the task of occupying China alone."

Ding Cun interrupted, "But even if we can't complete the occupation, the current Nanjing government has North China, Inner Mongolia, and six provinces: Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, and Guangdong."

"Mayor Zhou's power is great enough."

Gu Linhuai said calmly: "Indeed, this is why I think I can convince him. The current Mayor Zhou is no longer the same Mayor Zhou as before. He obviously sees things more clearly from that position. This time, the bill to take back the concessions is an action that offends Britain, the United States, and France at the same time."

"The Japanese were willing to go to war with many Western countries at the same time for their interests in China. In the short term, they could indeed gain some benefits."

"But any smart person knows that once America's industrial strength is restored, Japan will be faced with a catastrophe."

"He is a smart man, how could he not understand that you can't put all your eggs in one basket."

Ding Cun was silent for a moment and sighed, "I do admire Brother Xiting's opinion, but you also know that Chinese people are more or less concerned about their reputation."

"You don't give him the right to choose, but just keep forcing him. Aren't you afraid that he will do something desperate?"

"If he turns around and reveals your affairs, and then uses the excuse of enduring humiliation, the Japanese will not bother him."

Gu Linhuai chuckled and said, "Brother Juchuan, you think too much. A desperate dog jumps over the wall because it is a dog."

"Mayor Zhou is a human being, and a sophisticated egoist at that. Of course he will make the smartest choice at this moment."

"In the end, Brother Juchuan is afraid that Mayor Zhou might suddenly turn against us and implicate you."

"Brother Juchuan, I told you that your current identity is not ordinary. Even if you want to contact the Red Party or even the Military Control Commission openly, there will be people who will help you cover up."

"What identity? He's just a useful chess piece." Ding Cun sighed leisurely.

"Chess players have their own considerations, and chess pieces have their own ways of living." Gu Linhuai said: "Minister Chen of the Ministry of Transportation is indeed quite talented."

"I know there's something wrong with Brother Juchuan, but I still act as if nothing happened."

Ding Cun was stunned for a moment, his face turned a little ugly: "Brother Xiting, do you mean that Minister Chen already knew that I had contact with you?"

“But I didn’t notice anything…”

Gu Linhuai said bluntly: "Brother Juchuan, if you wait until you find out, that will be when he is ready to use surgery on you."

"There were two intelligence leaks in Shancheng. There were so many intelligence agencies in Shanghai and they couldn't find dozens of agents from the Central Bureau of Investigation. If there hadn't been an insider notifying them in advance, you really think the Japanese are just sitting there doing nothing."

"He doesn't say it doesn't mean he doesn't know, but because there is no one who can take Brother Juchuan's position. If he takes you down, the most he can do is to imprison you."

"Who will he find to take over the position of Commissioner of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Pacification Office? That idiot Li Qun? Isn't he afraid that Li Qun will mess things up?"

"If this person who can sit in the position of Commissioner of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Pacification Office is too far away from him, he will have trouble controlling him. If he is too close to him, he will be implicated. It is really difficult to grasp this balance."

"Only Brother Juchuan is the most suitable candidate. As long as he has this imperial sword in his hand, no matter what you do now, he will bear it for you."

Ding Cun suddenly fell silent. Of course, he was also very clear that protecting him at this time was not a good thing, as it would require him to bear a bigger blame.

"Brother Xiting is very good at planning. I admire you very much. Okay, I will go and ask Mayor Zhou about it."

"If there's nothing else, it's better for us not to meet."

After saying this, Dingcun picked up his walking stick and briefcase and walked out slowly.

Gu Linhuai looked at Ding Cun's receding figure and a strange smile appeared on his face.

"Teacher, are you really not afraid that Mayor Zhou will go back on his word?" Du Xiufeng endured for a long time and finally asked the question in his heart.

"Rebel? Then kill him." Gu Linhuai picked up a black piece and placed it without hesitation...
