Chapter 73: Bold ideas

Zhang Yong was driving. Zhou Yang was in the passenger seat.

Behind them should have been the guards. But Zhou Yang had dismissed them. Apparently, there was something personal to discuss.

'I have a brother-in-law...'

'Officer Zhou, if there is anything I can do to help, I will definitely not hesitate.'

'Okay, I'll get straight to the point. I have a young brother-in-law who wants to go to your Lixing Society to worship the gods. You see...'

'What, he doesn't want to join your police headquarters?'

'It's too conspicuous here...'

'Okay. I promise. I'll tell the team leader when I get back.'

'Brother Zhang is so straightforward.'

'We're all on the same team. Do you have time for a drink?'

'Sure!'

Zhou Yang was very satisfied.

The other person was a straightforward person. He had indeed made the right choice.

I like straightforward people like him. I hate those who are so high and mighty. They all insist on their principles. Bah, there are no principles!

It's just that the benefits they offer are not enough. They just don't want to help themselves.

Zhang Yong agreed readily, but he also had his own considerations.

Li Boqi would probably not refuse. He also wanted to establish a relationship with the Garrison Command.

After all, if there was ever a danger in the future, he would have to ask the Garrison Command to intervene.

Other people have a regular army. The Li Xing Club does not. If it encounters a strong enemy, the Li Xing Club must request support.

'Tonight, you decide the place.'

'Okay!'

'Eh?'

Zhang Yong suddenly slowed down and stopped the car.

But he saw an 'acquaintance.' A target prompted by the map.

The other person got out of a black car and entered a ready-made clothing store.

'Who is that?'

'Oh, Boss Wen from Haichang Shipping. He's also a rich man. And he likes to make friends. I'll introduce you to him sometime.'

'Great!'

Zhang Yong nodded.

So he was Wen Zhenping! What a coincidence.

He really was Japanese.

Like Meng Chaowei, he was a hidden Japanese spy.

Their mission was not to steal intelligence, but to provide abundant funding for the entire intelligence organisation.

Very good. A super big fat lamb. Slowly slaughter it. Slowly...

Suddenly, an absurd thought popped into his head. What if he cut off all his connections, leaving him alone...

Do you think he would be willing to fund himself? If he is given a way out, he will continue to make money...

Japanese spies responsible for making money are generally not that fanatical. Because they are currently living a good life, they should not be willing to give it up easily.

For example, if you don't arrest Lou Qingcheng, but arrest his connections, would he be willing to surrender? This is a very bold idea...

He shook his head.

He didn't think much about it.

He felt that it was impractical for the moment.

First, he would secretly extort all their assets...

'My brother-in-law is called Luo Yiming...'

'Is he free right now? If so, I'll bring him back after I'm done here.'

'Okay, I'll let him know.'

Zhou Yang then got out of the car to make the call.

Zhang Yong suddenly saw another car arrive. It stopped in front of the clothing store. A chubby man got out of the car. He entered the clothing store.

Through the shop window, you could clearly see the two of them whispering inside.

Zhang Yong looked on silently for a few more moments.

Wen Zhenping was inside the clothing store. Did the man who came later have something to do with him?

Were they meeting up?

'Eh? It's Captain Yuan.' Zhou Yang returned, following Zhang Yong's gaze and seeming a little surprised.

'The fat man?' Zhang Yong's mind twitched.

'Yes. He is the captain of the inspection team. His name is Yuan Zheng. He has a younger sister who is Chief Tian's junior wife.'

'Is it easy to talk to him?'

'Of course it's not easy with other people. But with us, we don't have to talk to him at all.'

'Oh...'

'But we'll all get rich together, so we should give him a little something.'

ADVERTISEMENT

'I understand.'

'If you have time, I'll invite you to sit with him. In the future, it will be much easier to get goods in and out of the port. Hundreds of crates won't be a problem. As long as you can get the goods. Right now, the Germans are also very short of their own medicine. They don't want to sell to foreigners. We have to rely on the Americans to help us resell a lot of our goods. It's a waste of a lot of profit.'

'Thanks.'

'We're family, don't be so formal,'

Zhou Yang responded with a smile.

Everyone is in the same boat. He was happy to help.

After all, there was a big market, and there would be a market for any amount of medicine. Everyone had their own way of doing things. Everyone helped each other to get rich.

Otherwise, with that meagre military pay, they can't even feed themselves!

Besides, the law doesn't apply to the masses.

Everyone is doing the same thing, so naturally no one breaks the rules.

Otherwise, the Security Command would be arresting the goods of the Lixing Society, and the Lixing Society would be arresting the goods of the Security Command.

'My brother-in-law is a bit of a scoundrel, so please bear with him...'

'It's fine,'

Zhang Yong smiled and responded.

It's fine to be reckless. The key is who you recklessly mess with. Who you mess with.

If you mess with someone from the Li Xing Society, you're screwed. But if you mess with the Party Affairs Investigation Department, that's great.

It would be perfect if you could just kill a few of them...

Soon, the car arrived at the Tzu Chi Hospital.

Zhang Yong took a deep breath. He got out of the car. He straightened his clothes.

What was to come was finally coming.

At this point, I guess Vice-Commander Yang has already found out why I'm here. I wonder what he'll do to me?

Fortunately, I don't have to meet with him. I'll just walk around for a bit and leave.

However, my wishful thinking is destroyed.

A major military officer is waiting at the hospital entrance, shouting at Zhang Yong, 'You must be Zhang Yong from the Special Services Department of the Lixing Club, right? Our commander wants to see you!'

Zhang Yong: ...

Speechless. So soon?

I'm stunned. He didn't even give me a chance to dodge or evade. It's just face-to-face.

Never mind. I'll go for it.

Whether I live or die, I'll face it all.

Take a deep breath.

Follow the major as he walks forward.

I thought Vice Commander Yang should be on the upper floors. Little did I know that he was actually on the ground floor.

The entire Tzu Chi Hospital is full of heavily armed soldiers. On the contrary, there are very few doctors and nurses. I guess they were all driven away. Anyway, Vice Commander Yang's injury was just an act.

'Hand over your weapons.'

'Okay.'

'Go in!'

'Yes!'

Zhang Yong entered the ward.

There were a lot of people inside. They were all school-level officers. There were three colonels.

In the military rank sequence of the National Army, colonels are not valuable. There are many majors and lieutenant generals. Commander Qian is still an admiral. It can be said to be quite chaotic.

Baldhead also noticed the problem. The military rank system should be standardized soon. The military rank system will be activated.

By then, there will only be a dozen or so admirals nationwide. The conditions for awarding the rank were very strict. For veterans like Commander Qian, the only rank they could be awarded was lieutenant general.

However, soon after, the full-scale war broke out, and the army swelled crazily. The rank system could not keep up with the times.

So, in addition to the rank system, a post rank system was also added.

As a result, the ranks were once again in chaos.

This led to the situation where the deputy commander-in-chief was a lieutenant general, the corps commander was a lieutenant general, the army commander was a lieutenant general, the division commander was a lieutenant general...

'Report!'

Zhang Yong stood at attention and saluted.

He did not look away, but kept his hand on the hilt of his gun.

His weapon had been confiscated outside, but he still had some space on him.

If anything happened, he would first kill everyone in the room. Then he would try to escape. In short, he could not afford to lose...

He sensed a strong sense of hostility.

Obviously, Vice Commander Yang was very angry. The consequences would be serious.
