You were asked to keep a low profile and lie low, so you became the chief of a special high-tech dep

"Consul Richard, a wise man is a wise man! Isn't it good for us to make a fortune under the jurisdiction of the Japanese Commercial Control Bureau? No matter who is in charge, as long as we can get more money than before!"

The French Consul Bai Zaotou said loudly.

"I agree with Consul Bai Zaotuo's statement. It is a real skill to be able to put other people's money into your pocket. Just like the Japanese, they insisted on setting up a commercial control bureau to manage all the goods flow in Shanghai. Why should we obey the control? Is it because the Japanese are powerful? No, it is because we get more money than before, and it is more labor-saving and safer. Why not do it?"

Consul Sarabin also answered immediately.

"That's right! It's inevitable that the Japanese will manage Shanghai. As long as we can sell a large amount of materials to the Chinese under the management of the Japanese, we can delay the Japanese's full rule over the Chinese. We can earn the most benefits between the Japanese and the Chinese. As for whether the Japanese can unify China in the end, it's none of our business. Don't you agree?"

Director Evan also explained everything clearly.

"Yes, yes, yes! That's the truth!" General Manager Pi Shaonai also echoed.

"But the Japanese's goal this time is to unify and control the underground market, which is inextricably linked to us. Are we just going to give it up willingly?"

Consul Richard asked again.

"What a mess! Why do we have such a close relationship with these gangsters? Aren't we just using each other? Now they are useless and have even become stumbling blocks. Why don't we just kick them away? What's the point of keeping them around? Moreover, the ones who kicked them out were not us, but the Japanese. This is a blessing that cannot be obtained even if you burn incense and pray to Buddha!"

Consul Sarabin spoke again.

I thought to myself, you British are just nostalgic. However, if you continue to yearn for the past and don't seize the time to develop your economy and technology, your position as the world hegemon will quietly be replaced by the United States.

"That makes sense! Then let us sincerely follow the Japanese and see how Shinichi Shimabashi becomes the underground emperor of Shanghai!"

After repeated persuasion from several people, Richard finally agreed to cooperate with the Japanese and control the underground market!

"Not only do we follow him, but we also have to flatter Shimahashi Shinichi from time to time, and the longer the flattery, the better!"

Consul Sarabin spoke again and emphasized.

"Consul Sarabin, what you said is so insightful! That guy loves gold bars. Every time he comes to our French Concession, I have never let him return empty-handed. As long as we can win over this future underground emperor of Shanghai, then this entire Shanghai will still be ours, right?"

General Manager Pi Shaonai finally spoke frankly.

"Well said! For this sentence, we must have a drink today!"

Consul Sarabin said this, looking at everyone and speaking cheerfully.

"President! Something terrible has happened. We have just received accurate information. Three days later, the Japanese will hold a meeting of all law enforcement officers in Shanghai at the Japanese Headquarters in Shanghai. The purpose is to rectify the underground gang forces in Shanghai and completely cut off all ties between the gang forces and the government. It seems that Shimahashi Shinichi is coming with great force this time!"

Gao Jingtian looked at Feng Jingyao and said worriedly.

"Just because he is a small Japanese business control director, he can hold such a big meeting? Do you think it is possible?"

Feng Jingyao asked back disapprovingly.

"Now the whole of Shanghai has gone crazy. All the gangsters are on edge and people are in a panic."

Gao Jingtian answered truthfully again.

"So what? We are no longer the weak and vulnerable people who needed to rely on the British. Even if we cut off our connection with the Public Concession Bureau, what can the Japanese do to us? I still want to teach Mr. Evan a lesson. Is the bidding for the water company over?"

Feng Jingyao said with great confidence.

"It's over!" Gao Jingtian answered truthfully.

"What's the result?" Feng Jingyao suddenly turned around and looked at Gao Jingtian with cold eyes.

This frightened Gao Jingtian, and he quickly answered truthfully: "I heard that a British businessman named James won the bid! A press conference will be held tonight!"

"Damn it! I was the one who drove the former water tyrants from the International Settlement out of Shanghai, but that old bastard Evan actually gave the contract to a British businessman. How ridiculous! Tonight, have someone blow up all the main pipes of the water company."

When Feng Jingyao heard that the bidding contract of the water company did not fall into his hands, he stood up from his chair and gave orders to Gao Jingtian.

Gao Jingtian stretched his neck and whispered, "President! This is a time of trouble, let's just be patient!"

"Endure? This is the test given to us by Director Evan. We didn't rob or destroy the Japanese's goods distribution channels. What are we afraid of? Go! Notify them immediately!"

Feng Jingyao ordered, unable to bear it any longer.

"Yes!" Gao Jingtian had no choice but to answer and turn away.

In the French Concession, at the residence of Shanghai underground boss Du Qingyun, the butler Du Song was having a secret conversation with Yuan Cheng in the living room behind closed doors.

"I heard that the Japanese are starting to clean up the underground market in Shanghai?" Yuan Cheng looked at Du Song and asked with concern.

"I'm worried about this now! I don't know how the Japanese will rectify this time. I heard that they will first cut off all ties between the gangs and the ruling party. This is to eradicate the problem! The key is that the boss is far away in Hong Kong. At this critical moment, I hope Mr. Yuan can help me."

Juniper replied in a low voice.

"Don't worry! I'm here on behalf of the boss to tell you that the situation is unclear right now, so you must keep calm and don't panic. I'll keep you informed when there's news. During this time, tell your men to be careful and not cause any trouble!"

Yuan Cheng also whispered to comfort him.

"With Master Yuan's concern, I feel relieved. I have already made arrangements. No one is allowed to cause trouble outside."

Du Song secretly let out a long sigh and answered casually.

As a steward, he was afraid that he would be unable to make a decision if something big happened while the master was away.

Now that Yuan Cheng is here, things will be much easier!

After getting off work in the evening, Jiang Yifan stopped by the delicatessen and reported his plan to Xiao Yunlong.

"Boy! You are such a talent! You actually invited the consuls of the three countries, Britain, the United States and France, who are seemingly in harmony but actually at odds, to a meeting at the Japanese Military Police Headquarters. You are so awesome!"

Xiao Yunlong looked at Jiang Yifan and exclaimed.

"That's not the key! The key is to have Yuan Cheng inform Du Qingyun's Green Gang to go to the Commercial Control Bureau and express their willingness to surrender before the deadline! Remember! It must be the deadline!"

After saying that, Jiang Yifan left the delicatessen carrying the roast chicken.
