Chapter 135: Haha, scumbag!

'Go!'

'Go!'

Dai Yice led the men in.

The door to the granary was open. There were people inside. Quite a few of them.

A man dressed like an accountant, wearing thick, beer bottle-like glasses, was leisurely going through the account books.

There are many workers standing around. They should all be the grain transporters from Shengping Grain.

Grain is a bulky commodity that is heavy and requires very strenuous transport.

Whether it is loading onto a ship, unloading from a ship, or transporting from the dock to here, it requires a lot of links.

It also requires a lot of people.

When I say a lot of people, I mean regular workers. It does not include temporary workers.

The bookkeeper is naturally one of them.

Under him, there should be many more people doing the calculations. For a bulk commodity transaction, one bookkeeper definitely cannot handle it.

The system map suggests that the Japanese spy is this bookkeeper.

This is interesting. Is Wu Yuanfu being spied on by himself? Does he know that the bookkeeper is one of his own men?

Probably not.

His superiors would probably not let him know. If he knew, how could he still supervise?

'You are...'

'I am the new owner of Shengping Lianghao.'

'What?'

'My name is Zhang Yong. I am your new boss. Your previous boss, Wu Yuanfu, has given Shengping Lianghao to me.'

'Ah...'

Everyone was stunned. The accountant was no exception.

He didn't know that Wu Yuanfu was Japanese. He only knew that Wu Yuanfu had disappeared and could not be found. He never expected that a new owner would suddenly appear today.

What's more, he was armed with a gun. There was a large group of people. They looked fierce and evil.

'We are from the Special Branch of the Fuxing Society. We specialize in catching Japanese spies,' Zhang Yong said deliberately.

'Ah...' Everyone immediately fell silent.

They understood that the other party was very powerful. They could not afford to offend them. Saying the wrong thing would have serious consequences.

The accountant was also secretly worried. The Fuxing Society? They found their way here?

Are they targeting themselves?

Did they find some clues?

Damn it...

Who leaked the news?

Or did someone betray them?

Should he contact Lord Kagezo immediately and withdraw himself?

"What's your name?'

'Dong, Dong, my name is Li Liangcai, I'm in charge of the accounts...'

'Show me the ledger.'

'Yes.'

Li Liangcai hurriedly handed over the account book.

Zhang Yong briefly flipped through it. It was full of densely packed entries. He couldn't read it. He only looked at the final profit.

It was the profit from last month. That is, June.

Net profit, 93,000 taels of silver? It doesn't seem like much! It's less than 100,000.

Then he secretly despised himself. What a greedy person.

With a monthly profit of over 90,000 yen, what more do you want? It's over a million yen a year!

These days, one yen is enough to cover the living expenses of a family of four for a week. Five yen is enough to cover living expenses for a month. And it's still a relatively comfortable life. A monthly income of ten yen is considered a comfortable life.

But I actually don't think it's a big deal to earn 90,000 yen a month. If I were to run the business myself, I don't think I could even make ten yen.

I would go bankrupt straight away.

The Japanese do have some talent when it comes to business.

Even after they lost the war, they were still very good at business. In a very short time, they became an economically developed country again.

You can say that the Japanese invaders were cruel, cold-blooded and ruthless. But you can never say that they weren't smart.

In fact, the Japanese invaders were very smart. They were so smart that they became too arrogant. That's why they lost their lives.

'Where's the Japanese spy?'

Dai Yice asked Zhang Yong quietly.

Don't just think about making money. We have to catch the Japanese spy too. The boss is still waiting.

'Not here,'

Zhang Yong shook his head. He decided to keep the Japanese spy, the accountant, for now.

He would be useful for the time being. He would keep him and slowly interrogate him.

'Where is he?'

Dai Yice was puzzled.

From Zhang Yong's actions just now, he thought that Zhang Yong had discovered the Japanese spy.

Unexpectedly...

'My head is a bit sore. I'm confused,'

Zhang Yong touched the back of his head. Fortunately, the bruise had already begun to congeal. It was no longer bleeding.

Bringing up the incident deliberately was to put Chun Yu Chi in his place.

Dai Yice immediately expressed his understanding.

Whoever fell like that would be a little confused.

If Zhang Yong really had an accident, it would be Chun Yu Chi's responsibility. He must be removed from his post and investigated.

'Keep going!'

Zhang Yong hurriedly walked towards the door.

As a result, he didn't pay attention and tripped over the door sill. Then he fell to the ground.

Oh no...

He's lost his temper!

Dai Yice became increasingly worried that Zhang Yong might have really been injured.

Otherwise, how could he have easily fallen on this kind of terrain?

Damn Chun Yu Chi. I must report this to the director properly. I'll show Chun Yu Chi.

Fortunately, Zhang Yong quickly got up.

It was purely an accident. It had only a little to do with the injury to his head.

The fall made the wound bleed immediately.

Dai Yice hurriedly shouted, 'Go to the hospital! Go to the hospital!'

'I'll go myself! You report to the director!' Zhang Yong also felt the blood on the back of his head.

Damn it. It's really bleeding again.

It's actually a superficial wound. But if you don't do something about it, it'll be a problem.

'What hospital is nearby?'

'You'd better go to the General Army Hospital. The doctors there are a bit more qualified.'

'It's just a superficial wound...'

'Shh, don't underestimate superficial wounds. Negligence can also kill,'

Dai Yice said seriously.

At the same time, he gave Zhang Yong a meaningful look.

Zhang Yong: ...

Then he understood.

Oh, someone else is going to make a fuss about his injuries.

The more serious his injuries, the greater Chun Yu Chi's responsibility. The higher-ups will have all the more reason to get rid of him. Even a minor matter can be blown out of proportion.

Okay, I understand. I'll cooperate.

'Then I'll go to the Army General Hospital. I'll get a proper examination.'

'Go ahead!'

'I'll go by myself. You guys continue the search.'

'Okay!'

Dai Yice nodded.

It wasn't far from here to the General Army Hospital.

The roads were all blocked off. There were military police and police everywhere. It was relatively safe. Zhang Yong could go alone without any problems.

Zhang Yong then went back to his car. He got in.

Then suddenly he turned back. He looked around. He looked especially carefully at the ground. Then he got in the car again. He closed the door.

He started the car.

He drove.

'Are you okay?' he suddenly said.

'I...' A faint voice came from behind him, and then there was silence again.

ADVERTISEMENT

Zhang Yong drives in silence. They reach the intersection ahead.

There is a police roadblock ahead. There are also military police. Everyone is stopped.

Zhang Yong stops the car. He rolls down the window. He hands over his ID.

At the same time, he turns his head. He lets the people outside see that he is bleeding from the back of his head.

'You...'

'I'm injured. I need to go to the Army General Hospital to get some stitches.'

'Please.'

The military police let them go immediately.

Zhang Yong used a pass from the attendant's office.

Apparently, these military policemen knew what they were doing. They didn't continue the inspection. They didn't discover that there were other people in the car.

Zhang Yong continued driving.

The checkpoint was getting further and further away. There was no one around.

'Where are you going?'

'I...'

'You can't go to the hospital. Chun Yu Chi is looking for you.'

'I...'

'Do you have a place to stay? Can you treat your wounds yourself?'

'No...'

'Why not?'

'I've been shot three times.'

'You...'

Zhang Yong was speechless.

Three shots?

Aren't you pretty awesome?

You can climb walls. You can climb over a prison wall that's seven or eight metres high!

How did you get shot three times and end up in such a sorry state?

Alas, I really overestimated you. Luckily, I met you. Otherwise, you would have definitely been finished.

'Code name?'

'...'

'It's okay to give me a code name. I know your real identity. You also took more than 90,000 yuan from me. We should have some basic trust.'

'Gecko.'

'Okay, Comrade Gecko, I must tell you: I am not in a position to help you with your injuries. I can't take you to the hospital either. I can only get you out of the siege zone. The rest is up to you. Or up to your comrades. Understand?'

'Hm...'

'Do you trust Zhuo Yungui?'

'Hm...'

'Perhaps you can go to him for help with your wound. He must be capable of something if he has survived until now. If he can save you, you will be lucky. If he cannot, there is nothing you can do. Where will he be?'

'Yihongyuan.'

'Qinhuai River?'

'No. It is next to the General Army Hospital.'

'That's perfect!'

Zhang Yong let out a sigh of relief.

This Huang Shang might still have a chance to save his life.

The person Chun Yu Chi wanted to arrest was actually him.

He really has had a lot of misfortune.

Before that, he was in the Tiger Bridge Prison. I don't know how he got arrested.

Zhang Yong had to admit that the Red Party's faith was still very strong at this time. However, their professional skills were perhaps really a bit lacking...

Getting arrested the first time and almost getting arrested the second time, this is completely the work of an amateur!

Crap. That Li Yunyang. It can't be...

It's over.

Don't drag your family into this!

'Why don't you tell Li Yunyang not to come?'

'Why?'

'I'm worried about her level...'

'Do you distrust me or her?'

'I don't even trust myself.'

'You...'

Huang Shang's voice was weak.

He wanted to speak. But he didn't have enough breath.

He had been shot three times. Although it wasn't vital, it was still tragic enough.

'You guys aren't very good.'

'Who are you to judge us? Are you any good yourself?'

'I'm not. But I know how to get help. Unlike you, wandering around alone all the time. You're asking for trouble...'

'Me, me, me...'

Huang Shang started coughing violently.

Zhang Yong had to shut up. Never mind. No need to provoke the other guy.

Although the underground party's professional skills were only so-so, in the end they won. They established New China.

As it turned out, they were all very powerful. You can't mess with them.

Speed up, drive fast.

When they come to a checkpoint, take out the pass from the attendant's office.

No obstacles.

No one checks.

Kill all the way to the front door of the Army General Hospital. But don't stop. Drive directly to the Yihongyuan.

Deliberately drive into an alley. Put Huang Shang down. Then drive away.

I'm injured...

My mind is not clear...

I drove too far...

Very reasonable, right?

Who dares to doubt?

Stop the car. Get out. Check the car for bloodstains.

It's fine. Huang Shang has treated his wounds. No blood is flowing. It's clean.

He's relieved to confirm that there are no traces left. Enter the hospital.

Suddenly, someone turns up next to him.

'Captain Zhang?'

'Eh?'

Zhang Yong is taken aback.

Song Ziyu? Why is she here?

Well, could it be that the heavens have arranged for him to pair up with her? Is this meant to be a chance encounter?

He decides to ignore it.

He walked straight over to her.

I'm hurt...

My mind is not clear...

I don't recognise you...

That's reasonable, right?

Yes. Very reasonable. So, please don't show up in front of me again.

There's no way I'll pair up with anyone.

How could I possibly give up the whole forest just for you?

There are so many beautiful women in the world...

I want them all!

Haha!

Scumbag!
