Spy Wars: Get the Predator equipment at the beginning

In the rest cabin, Zhang Yunhe was sitting on the bed eating lunch, with the lunch box placed on a small table beside the bed.

"Knock knock knock" the cabin door was knocked.

Zhang Yunhe shouted, "Come in!"

The hatch was opened, and the crew led a middle-aged man wearing a thick long cotton robe, thick myopic glasses, and a linen gray scarf around his neck. He stood at the door and said to Zhang Yunhe, "Mr. Zhang, the person is here!"

Zhang Yunhe turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man next to the crew for a few seconds, then said to the crew: "There is nothing for you to do now, go eat!"

The crew nodded and turned to leave.

Zhang Yunhe put down his chopsticks, stood up, walked to the cabin door, looked at the middle-aged man and held out his hand: "Give it to me!"

"What?" The middle-aged man was stunned.

"Don't you want to pick up the goods? Why do you want to pick up the goods?" Zhang Yunhe asked.

"Oh, oh!" The middle-aged man finally reacted, quickly took out a wallet from his pocket, opened the leather armor, took out a delivery note from it and handed it to Zhang Yunhe.

Zhang Yunhe took the delivery note and took a look at it, confirming that it was indeed the one he had personally handed to Lao Cui that day. He immediately tilted his head towards the cabin and said, "Come in!"

"Thank you!" The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and stepped into the cabin.

Zhang Yunhe closed the cabin door and bolted it. He walked over to the bed and sat down. He looked at the middle-aged man and took out a pack of cigarettes, handing him two: "Smoke!"

The middle-aged man was very alert and quickly waved his hand to say, "Thank you for your kindness. I don't smoke. Please feel free to help yourself."

Zhang Yunhe noticed that the skin on the inside of the first section of his right index finger and middle finger was yellow, which was obviously caused by smoke. People who don't smoke may not know this detail, but for anyone who is a heavy smoker, their fingers will definitely be yellowed by smoke, and no matter how they wash, they can't be washed clean.

Since the other person didn't smoke, Zhang Yunhe didn't force him. He put one cigarette in his mouth, put the other one back into the cigarette box, and lit it with a Zippo lighter.

This classic lighter quickly became popular around the world after its launch in 1933 and was enthusiastically sought after by smokers. The price when it was first launched was US$1.95, but by 1940, due to monetary inflation, rising raw material and production costs, its price was US$5.

According to the current market exchange rate between the US dollar and the French franc, 1 US dollar is exchanged for 25 French francs, so the retail price of a Zippo lighter is approximately 125 French francs.

Zhang Yunhe smoked a cigarette, looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "This batch of goods is on the ship now, but I see that the entrance and exit of the dock are guarded by Japanese soldiers. All incoming and outgoing goods must be inspected. How are you going to transport this batch of goods away under the Japanese's noses?"

The middle-aged man said calmly, "It's definitely not possible during the day. We plan to act at night. For this purpose, we have prepared a wooden boat and three people. I am the receiver, so I count as one. There are two boatmen, so we hope Mr. Zhang can cooperate!"

Zhang Yunhe smoked a cigarette and asked, "How do you want me to cooperate?"

"Our plan is to row over at midnight. We'll use the flashlight as a signal. If the light turns on and off three times in a row, it means I'm here to pick up the cargo. Mr. Zhang, please arrange for the crew to lower the gangway. We'll send one person aboard to load the cargo, tie it up with ropes, and then place it on the small wooden boat. That's the general plan!"

Zhang Yunhe thought for a moment and said, "Whether you can transport this batch of goods away from under the eyes of the Japanese is not only related to the success or failure of your delivery mission, but also to my safety and the safety of my freighter, as well as the safety of my transportation route. So I have a few questions!"

The middle-aged man raised his hand: "Excuse me, Mr. Zhang!"

Zhang Yunhe held up a finger. "First, there should be Japanese patrol boats patrolling the waters nearby. Have you observed their patrol times and the intervals between patrols? If a Japanese patrol boat happens to approach while you're unloading, do you have an emergency response plan?"

The middle-aged man said, "We've observed that during the day, the Japanese patrol boats pass through the waters near the dock once every two hours, and at night, they pass through the waters near the dock once every hour. With an hour's time, I think if we time it right, we should be able to load the ship and leave before the next Japanese patrol boat returns!"

"If something unexpected happens and the Japanese patrol boat returns early, or we fail to calculate the time well and encounter the Japanese patrol boat returning while loading, our idea is to stop loading immediately and row the small boat into the gap between two large freighters next to us to hide. We will row out and continue loading after the patrol boat leaves. Unless absolutely necessary, we will not engage in fire with the Japanese patrol boat!"

"Please, Mr. Zhang, if something unexpected happens and we have to engage in a firefight with the Japanese patrol boat, we will not implicate you or your freighter. Even if we are unfortunately captured, we will never betray you!"

Zhang Yunhe held up two fingers again. "Second question, even though it's winter, the river near the dock is flowing quite fast. How are you going to get the wooden boat to the freighter with just manpower?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "We've already considered this issue. The boat we've prepared isn't just powered by wooden oars; it also has sails. It's also quite large, large enough to hold 50 boxes of cargo. Furthermore, we're sailing downstream from upstream, so we can take advantage of both wind and water power!"

Zhang Yunhe nodded and said, "For the first question, you only reserved one hour for loading and unloading. I'm afraid that's not enough. For 50 boxes of cargo, you only have 50 minutes at most. You also need to reserve some time for arrival and departure. You can't just finish loading the cargo and then leave before the Japanese patrol boat returns!"

The middle-aged man frowned upon hearing this. "This... is indeed a problem. After all, there are only three of us. Two of us need to board and unload the cargo ship, leaving one person on the wooden sailboat to receive the cargo. On average, we only have one minute to allocate to each cargo box. It's really not enough."

After a few seconds, Zhang Yunhe said, "How about this? Things have come to this point, and I can't just sit there and watch. I'll arrange for the crew to help with unloading the cargo, and you guys just need to stay on the boat to receive the cargo. This way, the unloading and loading speed will be much faster!"

The middle-aged man was overjoyed after hearing this. He quickly stood up and shook Zhang Yunhe's hand, "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang. My last name is Li, and we are friends now. If you need us in the future, please let me know. If you need help, you can come to Dafeng Warehouse by the Han River to find me!"

Zhang Yunhe smiled calmly: "We can talk about the future later. Let's get through this first!"
