Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 814 Dai Yunong Sets His Sights on the Ye Family

That's right, Ye Shaohong was just acting.

He deliberately portrayed himself as ruthless and insane in order to humiliate Sanchun Shouhui and crush his will to resist.

And he did indeed have this prerequisite.

Who told him to be the seventh of Yama's Kings?

His ruthlessness and madness had already spread throughout the entire East Asian espionage circle.

That's a well-known infamy.

Miharu Toshiki, that old devil, is cunning and treacherous enough, but after all, he's not a member of the Special Service.

He couldn't possibly know the truth.

Naturally, they wouldn't know the extent of Ye Shaohong's ruthlessness and madness.

This gave Ye Shaohong the opportunity to use his methods.

As for the results, judging from the current situation, they should be quite good.

Ye Shaohong's thoughts and schemes could not be hidden from Zheng Yaoxian.

Therefore, when Ye Shaohong displayed extreme madness, Zheng Yaoxian did not speak up to stop him, but chose to observe coldly from the sidelines.

Just when Sanchun Shouhui was on the verge of collapse, Zheng Yaoxian stepped forward at just the right moment.

This gave Ye Shaohong a reason to stop.

Their seamless teamwork brought the play to life.

This also allowed Ye Shaohong to complete the task assigned by Dai Yunong very well.

Ye Shaohong no longer needed to interfere with the subsequent interrogation.

He believed that with Zheng Yaoxian's intelligence, he should be able to seize this opportunity and get Sanchun Shouhui to talk.

The only difference is the length of time.

After leaving the interrogation room, Ye Shaohong returned to his own office.

Start handling the official business at hand.

At the same time, a report on the process of solving the case was written.

This busy period lasted for half a day. When Xu Baichuan knocked on Ye Shaohong's office door with a lunchbox near noon, Ye Shaohong was still writing.

"Still busy?"

"Stop for now, have lunch first!"

While they were talking, Xu Baichuan had already placed the food on the table.

An enticing aroma wafted over, and Ye Shaohong finally stopped writing, rubbing his wrists before looking up at Xu Baichuan. "Hey!"

"I knew it! In the entire Special Service Department, you're the best to me, Fourth Brother!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shaohong picked up the bowl and chopsticks on the table and began to pick up a piece of sausage.

It must be said that the cured meat and sausages from Sichuan are indeed very delicious.

It has both numbing and spicy flavors.

More importantly, the pork of this era had not yet been subjected to the ripening process of synthetic feed, and the pigs used were native Chinese black-haired pigs.

This pork was far more delicious and flavorful than pork from later generations.

It tastes even more fragrant and sticky.

Even though Ye Shaohong was injured and didn't have a good appetite, he couldn't resist eating such a rare delicacy.

He quickly ate two large bowls of rice. After his stomach was full, Ye Shaohong let out a long sigh of relief.

Before he could speak, Xu Baichuan had already brewed the tea and brought it directly to Ye Shaohong.

"Come!"

"Have some tea to cleanse your palate!"

Xu Baichuan served Ye Shaohong too well today, so well that Ye Shaohong found it hard to bear.

He picked up the water glass.

He held it to his lips, blew on it gently, and took a sip.

Then Ye Shaohong looked at Xu Baichuan.

"Fourth brother!"

"You came here today, is there something you need?"

"Ok!"

"There is indeed a small matter I would like to ask for your help with!" Xu Baichuan nodded. Between brothers, there was no need for excessive formalities, and he directly stated his purpose.

It turns out that Xu Baichuan is short of money recently.

But he didn't want to do the kind of business that involved bullying and monopolizing the market, which would invite curses from others.

So after thinking about it, Xu Baichuan thought of the Ye family.

That's right.

It wasn't Ye Shaohong, but the Ye family.

Although the Ye family has now moved from Zhejiang Province to the mountain city, they came as a whole clan and their heritage remains.

In just over a year, the Ye family has built a considerable business empire in the mountain city.

Under the personal management of Ye's father, the Ye family's business reach has extended to key industries such as shipping, pharmaceuticals, pig bristles, and tung oil.

It's fair to say they're making a fortune every day. They're gradually showing signs of a resurgence.

A business family like the Ye family shouldn't have been able to rise to prominence in the mountain city, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Who can blame them when the Ye family has an old man?

Who can blame them but Ye Shaohong?

With these two powerful figures, one old and one young, keeping things under control, even the four major families of Chiang, Soong, Kung, and Chen would not dare to take action against the Ye family as long as their core interests were not violated.

As a result, the Ye family's business became even more successful.

Many powerful and wealthy families are secretly contacting the Ye family, trying to curry favor with this new business behemoth.

Xu Baichuan was one of them.

"Hi!"

"I thought it was something serious. You're my own brother, after all."

"If you want to cooperate with my Ye family, just go directly to my father. He certainly won't refuse you."

Ye Shaohong had little contact with or knowledge of the family business.

He only knew the general situation.

But this did not affect his decision, after all, he was the only eldest grandson of the Ye family.

“This time it’s different!”

“If it’s just a regular business deal, my uncle certainly won’t refuse if I go to see him.”

"But this time, I want to get involved in smuggling!"

"and……."

At this point, Xu Baichuan paused slightly, then raised his hand and pointed towards the void.

The meaning is self-evident.

He simply wanted to tell Ye Shaohong that Dai Yunong was behind this deal, and perhaps even Dai Yunong's will.

"he?"

"What does he want to do?"

"Has his appetite grown so big that he dares to make a move against my Ye family?"

Upon realizing Xu Baichuan's thoughts, Ye Shaohong immediately raised his eyebrows.

To be honest, Ye Shaohong was a little unhappy.

Although he was working as a secret agent, and Dai Yunong was indeed his superior, a superior shouldn't covet the family business of his subordinate.

Moreover, the Ye family is not a pushover that everyone can easily manipulate.

"Hey, Seventh Brother, you're overthinking it!"

"This time, the Director really wasn't doing it for himself; he had his reasons!" Sensing Ye Shaohong's dissatisfaction, Xu Baichuan became somewhat anxious.

Only then did he reveal the truth.

Ye Shaohong was really wrong this time.

Dai Yunong was wrongly accused.

This time, Dai Yunong really wanted to use the Ye family's shipping channels to smuggle some in-demand foreign goods back to Shancheng for sale.

But Dai Yunong wasn't doing it for himself.

It was for the Secret Service.

Just a few days ago, under the influence of the bald-headed Chairman, the National Government's Military Commission finally approved the plan to establish the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The paper-based procedures have already begun.

According to this plan, the Special Service will be formally expanded in early August.

Previously a division-level unit, it has been upgraded to a bureau-level unit. The original administrative structure of the Special Service Department, consisting of three divisions and one office, will also undergo specific restructuring and reorganization.

It is further divided into ten locations and two rooms.

Specifically, it is divided into the Secretariat, Intelligence Department, Operations Department, Judicial Department, Telecommunications Department, General Affairs Department, Personnel Department, Management Department, Training Department, Police Department, Outpost Department, and Inspection Department.

Changes in organizational structure and expansion of personnel will inevitably require more financial support.

Although the Special Service Department was reorganized into the Military Intelligence Bureau and could directly receive some funding from the Ministry of Finance, that funding was far from enough for Dai Yunong, who was ambitious and intended to expand his power again.

Therefore, figuring out how to make money has become Dai Yunong's most pressing concern.

That's why he secretly started a smuggling business.

They've set their sights on the Ye family again!
