Sword: Li Yunlong advised me to be civilized

At the entrance of the cafe, a pair of hands were tightly clasped together as the two said goodbye to each other reluctantly. Jin Feng's departing figure gradually disappeared. The acting director, who had been smiling, suddenly became stern. It seemed that Jin Feng had not yet completely gained Xu Shengze's trust!

He returned to the table and sat down again. The waiter brought tea, and the acting director waved his hand to signal his men to leave. This café was owned by the Fuxing Society and also served as a secret liaison station in the French Concession...

Taking a sip of Biluochun tea, the acting director's brow remained furrowed. He had originally planned to apologize directly to Xu Shengze, but after leaving Qilu last night, he suddenly learned that Boss Sheng had disappeared. Then, his subordinates reported the humiliation suffered by the Lin family and the kidnapping of Luo Hu...

Now things are getting complicated. Originally it was just two tigers fighting each other, but now there is a dragon crossing the river!

Fortunately, Jin Feng confirmed that Boss Sheng's disappearance had nothing to do with Xu Shengze, and that he was only passively involved in the Lin family incident...

The matter is actually not that complicated. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Luo Hu was kidnapped by the Qingkuang Company. They are the only ones who have the ability to do this. At first, the acting director did not understand why Boss Sheng would do such a stupid thing?

There aren't many ways to solve Luo Hu's problem. Just get in touch with the police station. The simplest way is to commit suicide. Otherwise, get him out and find a replacement of similar size to disfigure him...

The acting director knew Boss Sheng very well. He was not that stupid. After careful consideration, he finally figured out the intention of this underground emperor of Shanghai. He had no way out!

After the Lin family incident escalated, there was only one outcome: either the Lin family would withdraw, or the kidnapping company would back down...

If it were any other opponent, the Qingkuang Company could have easily taken a step back, but the Lin family couldn't do that because their influence in Shanghai was too great.

If the kidnapping company backs down, the Lin family only needs to make a small move, and Hengshe will face its biggest blow since its founding. Its members are not so resolute. I believe many will remain silent, and even more will choose to leave, or even join the Lin family...

So he had no choice but to act decisively, using force to tell everyone that Hengshe would never back down. This way, the situation would at best become an endless wrangling...

At this moment, a spy hurried in.

"Director, we've mobilized all our spies, but we haven't found Boss Sheng. His wives all insist he was kidnapped... The entire kidnapping clearance company is in chaos..."

The acting director nodded slightly, his face expressionless, but he was already cursing in his heart. Damn Boss Sheng, he only resorted to some scoundrel tactics. It was obvious that Qing was well-informed about the kidnapping. Boss Sheng must have known that the Lin family had mobilized the entire state's army...

So he deliberately hid himself and spread the news of his disappearance. This way, outsiders would think that it was the enraged Lin family who did it. This move was to force the Lin family not to act rashly. After all, if the Lin family continued to pursue him, it would be confirmed that the incident was the work of the Lin family...

The problem is, last night they were talking about disappearance, but today it has turned into a hijacking. Come to think of it, the Shanghai municipal government gathered at the Lin family this morning, and Boss Sheng must respond.

He had deliberately spread the news of the kidnapping, so that the Qingkuang Company could take advantage of it to stir up trouble throughout Shanghai. Those who suffered losses would not dare to criticize the Qingkuang Company and could only blame the Lin family...

More importantly, social instability will put enough pressure on the Shanghai government, and then someone will naturally step in to act as a peacemaker...

After figuring it out, the acting director was furious, scratching his head. "Fuck you, Boss Sheng! How can I save you? You've been so smart all your life, but so foolish for a moment! You didn't even bother asking around. With Xu Shengze now in the Lin family, no matter what you do, you're doomed. Hundreds of conscripts, and they just killed them without blinking an eye..."

Thinking of Xu Shengze, the acting director couldn't help but feel a headache. Jin Feng had just provided little intelligence, and his professional skills were not high enough to see it. But the acting director was different. From the fragments of intelligence one after another, he noticed a clue...

Unfortunately, Jin Feng only gained much of the information after arriving in Shanghai...

The first useful intelligence was that Pingnan discovered the 44th Division's new equipment on May 5th, but Xu Shengze had Jinfeng report it on the 14th, a six-day gap...

The second piece of information is that Pingnan has unearthed quite a bit of new equipment, including numerous jammers. This time, Xu Shengze secretly brought two to Shanghai...

The third piece of information is that Xu Shengze arrived in Shanghai the day before yesterday, got extremely drunk, and that same night he had sex with Miss Lin at the Heping Hotel. The acting director already knew all this, but Jin Feng also mentioned that the person drinking with Xu Shengze was a Chinese national. And then, this morning, they discovered that one of the jammers was missing...

According to Jin Feng's description, he has been staying by Xu Shengze's side for the past few days, so the missing jammer must have been handed over to that Chinese man. It is not difficult to guess that they got in touch during the gap of those few days!

Considering that Pingnan actually hid so much from Nanjing, this is worth pondering...

Suddenly, the acting director's eyes lit up. Damn it, Xu Shengze didn't come to Shanghai to buy Western medicine at all, he came to resell jammers...

Indeed, this guy values money more than his life. He had previously dared to extort money from the county government treasury in Qianzhong area and even cursed for money. He is a man who values money more than his life, and he is totally capable of doing it.

Furthermore, according to the intelligence gathered by Fuxing Society, that jammer is extremely advanced, a cutting-edge technology, so it will surely fetch a stratospheric price...

This is simply treason!

After reaching this conclusion, the acting director couldn't help but feel like he had found a treasure. The idea he had in Qilu last night once again emerged in his mind, to bring down Xu Shengze.

Ever since Pingnan emerged, it seemed that the director no longer trusted Fuxing Society the most, which made the acting director feel like a thorn in his throat. However, Pingnan was in a remote corner and did not really affect Fuxing Society.

But now that Xu Shengze has joined the Lin family, the acting director has completely offended him. That boss is very important and cannot be given up so easily. Therefore, bringing down Xu Shengze is the best option...

Having made up his mind and just stood up to take action, the acting director suddenly stopped, as if he had thought of something. He immediately called his men over and questioned them carefully...

Soon after, the cafe fell silent. The acting director sat at the table with a look of disbelief on his face. "Damn it, Xu Shengze, you are so cunning. You actually prepared a way out long ago!"

No wonder Pingnan had acted so strangely before, proactively asking him for information on Western medicine. At the time, he hadn't paid much attention and had simply handed it over to his subordinates. On May 5th, he called back, saying that the country had secretly developed a new drug...

Now it seems that the news was most likely leaked by that foreigner, and Xu Shengze's move was not only to find an excuse to leave Pingnan, but also to drag Fuxing Society into the water...

The acting director felt like cursing. Xu Shengze had come to Shanghai under the guise of purchasing Western medicine, and the intelligence had been provided by the Fuxing Society. If he were to accuse Xu Shengze, it would appear to others that the Fuxing Society had meticulously set him up...

In addition, the most crucial thing is that given Xu Shengze's position in the eyes of the chief, if one wants to bring him down, one must have solid evidence. Not to mention that the evidence in hand is insufficient, even if the evidence is sufficient, or even if the person is caught red-handed, there is still no way to deal with him.

Logically speaking, the best buyers should be the Germans, but now the White House and Germany are in a honeymoon period, and he simply cannot sell it to the Germans. The matter will be exposed sooner or later. So he simply sent a jammer to Nanjing and even suggested giving it to the Germans. This action was ostensibly to show loyalty to the commander, but in fact it left him a perfect escape route.

Even if they investigate, people will say that I have already reported to Nanjing and even handed over the things. If I really resold the jammers, I would definitely keep the news a secret and never let Nanjing know.

The moment he figured it out, the acting director slumped in his chair, as if all his strength had been drained away. He never thought that he, the number one spy in the Bai Mansion, would fall into Xu Shengze's trap!

The next moment, the acting director sat up suddenly. Oh no, because of his boss, he had offended Xu Shengze. What if Xu Shengze made trouble, even if he just complained to the director?

'On behalf of the fishermen and farmers, they condone the kidnapping company and prevent the purchase of Western medicine!'

Even this was enough to give him a hard time. Moreover, the acting director only now realized that although Xu Shengze looked like a brainless and reckless man on the surface, he was actually very insidious, and his revenge would not be that simple.

Thinking of this, the acting director hesitated for a while and was extremely anxious. What should he do?

Finally, I gritted my teeth and decided to choose the lesser of two evils. Brother Zhu Rong was right. Xu Shengze must not be offended. Although keeping the boss was important, it was not impossible to give up...

No, no, I must ask to see Xu Shengze immediately and apologize in person. It will be too late!

"Come here, prepare a generous gift immediately!"

After giving the order, the acting director still felt very uneasy. According to Jin Feng, Xu Shengze was a vindictive person, but he would only respond to soft words and not hard ones.

"Come here, prepare some more canes!"

After giving the order once more, the acting director still felt uneasy. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Hey! Doesn't Xu Shengze like money? In Shanghai, the richest people live a simple life! What if I help to connect them? Hey! No! I can help him resell it. The difference in price is... Haha!

The acting director became more and more excited the more he thought about it. There were so many benefits. As long as Xu Shengze had enough things, he could sell them not only to Xiaozi, but also to the American people...

The biggest benefit is that if this thing is accomplished, it will give me the opportunity to establish a closer relationship with Xu Shengze, and even become an ally...

Haha! That investigation is bullshit! Boss Sheng, get the hell out of here!

Not long after, the disguised deputy director appeared outside the Lin Mansion...

In the study on the second floor, Xu Zhenhua put his arm around Lin Chaohui's shoulder, leaned against the windowsill, and said with a smile.

"Brother, do you dare to beat up the director of the Fuxing Society's operations department?"

Forehead?

Sorry everyone, it's still kidney stones. The pain was unbearable yesterday... I had to go for an IV! Oh! It will take several days to remove the stent... Please forgive me!
