"Do you have any reliable brothers? They're all piecemeal. Don't call anyone who's unreliable." Lu Ming was a little worried about Zhang Ziyang's men.
"As long as you have money, you are a reliable brother. If you don't have money, it's hard to talk about it." Zhang Ziyang said with a smile.
"Are you blackmailing me? I'm just wiping your ass." Lu Ming said angrily.
"I know, but inviting those brothers here really costs money, and I don't have the money." Zhang Ziyang made a gesture of turning his trouser pockets.
"Okay, find four people and give each person thirty dollars a day."
"It doesn't need to be that much. Ten yuan a day is enough. The rest is drinking and eating meat. Just take care of them."
"Then call someone quickly and pick a few stronger ones." Lu Ming agreed.
An hour later, four police officers rushed to Wanguo Apartment to report for duty. Even though they were police officers, they were still stopped by the angry administrator. It was Lu Ming who led them upstairs.
Of course, Lu Ming would not say that An Gonggen and the four men were hiding in the building. He just said that the Japanese might want to deal with him at night, so he invited them to be bodyguards, and each of them was given food and drink, and an additional ten yuan was given.
These four people are very happy. After all, they are idle. Ten yuan is enough to earn money. Their salary is actually only twenty yuan a month. They also have good food and drink. This is a good job.
ah.
Lu Ming immediately called Badawan and asked them to prepare a banquet of good wine and food. He didn't know when the Japanese would take action, so he didn't dare to leave the building.
In the building opposite, Ozawa was not surprised when he saw Zhang Ziyang's arrival, but was a little frightened when he saw four more stout police officers arriving.
"You were not noticed when you went in, right?" he asked the beautiful woman.
"Of course not. Am I the kind of person who doesn't do things reliably?" the beautiful woman said a little aggrievedly.
"It's strange, that bastard Lu Ming seems to have discovered our plan." Ozawa said in a deep voice.
"How is it possible? Is he so calculating?"
"It's not possible, but it's certain. He hired four policemen as bodyguards, which means he's in trouble with us." Ozawa immediately felt a headache.
"Four useless policemen plus Zhang Ziyang can't cause much trouble." A gunman laughed.
"What do you know? We can't conflict with the police, let alone have a shootout with the police." Ozawa muttered.
"Then what should we do? Should we postpone the action?"
"No, the operation continues, but remember one thing. Try to avoid the police. If you really can't avoid it, don't have a conflict. If there is a conflict, remember one thing: never shoot. This is the bottom line that must be kept.
Once a gunfight breaks out with the police, it will get out of control, and the key criminal we want to arrest is likely to take advantage of the chaos and escape."
"We can go in with sixty people, ten of them will pester six of them, and the rest will forcefully break down the door and arrest An Gonggen and four other key criminals," the beautiful woman said.
"Well, we have enough strength. Let's divide everyone into groups." Ozawa said.
"What if the police guard the door for four key criminals? There is no way to catch the key criminals without taking down the police." Another gunman asked.
"Then let's clear the obstacles first, capture the police, Lu Ming, and Zhang Ziyang, and then implement the arrest plan." Ozawa decided resolutely.
Lu Ming, accompanied by Zi Yang and four police officers, had a feast, but the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong.
What would he do if he wanted to rush in and arrest the four An Gonggen people?
As a result, after thinking for a long time, what he could think of was almost the same as what Ozawa wanted to do.
Of course, he first assumed that the Japanese did not lack manpower, but he was certain of this. Judging from the Japanese formation, they would never do this if they did not have enough manpower.
If he said this was an empty city tactic, he would not agree with it. No matter how much the Japanese liked the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, they would not put up empty city tactic everywhere.
He did not dare to assume that the Japanese had a hundred gunmen. As long as forty Japanese rushed in, they would lose.
It is obviously not appropriate to hire more police officers as bodyguards. In that case, the police may discover the four An Gonggen first.
If the four An Gonggens were caught by the police, the result would be the same. It would not be much better than being caught by the Japanese. In the end, under the pressure of the Japanese, they would still have to be handed over to the Japanese.
Now this Wanguo Apartment is an isolated city, and it is a completely undefended isolated city.
"No, we have to let them leave safely as soon as possible."
He came to the empty room with no one living in it, then called Cai Lian and told her that Zhang Ziyang was here and that the New Year was coming soon. Would you like to come over to have a dance, play cards or something, and asked her to find a few more
Girl, let's have some fun.
"Why, Lu Ming?" Cai Lian didn't understand.
She knew that Lu Ming had never liked this kind of scene. In the past, he always accompanied Zhang Ziyang to events and often left halfway.
"I may have to leave Shanghai in a few days and go on a long trip, so I want to be lively." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll do it." Cai Lian didn't know what Lu Ming was up to, but since Lu Ming suggested it, let's do it. It wouldn't be difficult.
"How many girls are you looking for?" Cai Lian asked.
"The more the merrier, call all the girls you can find and give each one a hundred yuan out of pocket." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Why so much? The general price is twenty yuan." Cai Lian said with a wry smile.
"I'm not an ordinary person." Lu Ming said proudly.
"Okay, you are Mr. Lu, and of course you are not an ordinary person. People who have too much money are worried, I know." Cai Lian smiled bitterly in anger.
Of course she was not a fool. She knew that Lu Ming wanted to do something, and the dance was just a cover-up. If Zhang Ziyang was organizing the dance, it might really be just a dance, and it had nothing to do with the amount of money.
Lu Ming was not afraid of the Japanese eavesdropping when he made this call. He estimated that the Japanese could not eavesdrop on the phones of all the residents in the entire building. They simply could not do it. Only the Shanghai Telephone Bureau could do it.
After making this call, he called Mingzhu again.
"Do you miss me?" Yuan Mingzhu said happily after receiving Lu Ming's call.
"Well, I thought about it. By the way, we will go out to find Ziyuan in a few days. We may be away for a few months, so I want to have some fun with some old friends before I leave. Besides, the New Year is coming soon, so it's a good time for everyone to celebrate in advance.
A year or so. How about coming over in the evening, and it would be best to make an appointment with Miss Ning."
"Sister Xin'er, it's hard to say, she doesn't like this kind of occasion."
"Tell her that tonight's party is similar to Paramount's. Doesn't she like tango? If I dance with her, I guarantee that I won't be any worse than her professional dancer. Besides, you still want to do this..." Lu Ming slowly said
With that said, Mingzhu asked Mingzhu to take a note and write it down so as not to forget it.
The Pearl is a very critical link and must not be missed.
Mingzhu remembered them one by one and then went to make arrangements. She roughly understood what Lu Ming wanted to do.
After calling Yuan Mingzhu, he called Yan Xiaohui and asked her to help invite the Paramount band.
Although Paramount is not the property of the Yan family, the Yan family is the major shareholder.
