After the lights came on, what appeared in front of you was a small room. There was a bed, a sofa, a TV, and a freezer. It looked like an ordinary standard room.
If it was just for people to live in, Chen Ran obviously wouldn't come in. He didn't look at anything else. He went directly to the innermost row of bookcases and tried to push the middle bookcase.
But he didn't push it, as if he was dead. However, Chen Ran squatted down and groped under the bookcase for a while, then stood up and pulled the bookcase open like a sliding door.
After the bookcase was opened, a small door appeared. Chen Ran stepped in, and what he saw was a dark room filled with modern weapons and equipment.
Chen Ran frowned slightly.
Although he didn't know much about arms, he could still tell the difference between pistols, submachine guns, and small artillery. The arms here included not only submachine guns, sniper guns, and even heavy weapons such as mortars.
And these arms are obviously the latest model. In the important place of the capital, it is absolutely impossible for these arms to be strayed from other places. The only possibility is that they were obtained from the army.
Everyone in China probably knows how strict the government and military control weapons.
Chen Ran didn't think too much about it. Since he discovered it, he could just report the matter to Chief Yang. Then Chief Yang would inquire about the source of the weapon.
Chen Ran turned on the light switch again, and then opened the cabinet door under the arms counter. When the cabinet door was opened, he immediately saw stacks of red banknotes, neatly filling the entire cabinet door.
Chen Ran already knew what was inside before, so he wasn't too surprised when he saw these banknotes. Although the banknotes in this cabinet ranged from 100 million to 60 to 70 million, it was not like he had never seen money before.
I won't get into money.
After just one glance, Chen Ran opened the second cabinet door, and what he saw was still full of red banknotes. Then Chen Ran opened the third cabinet door, the fourth cabinet door, and the fifth cabinet door.
The cabinet door, the sixth cabinet door... all six cabinet doors are like this.
The lower half of the cabinet frame surrounding the room has two cabinet doors on the left and right sides of the door, three on the side facing the door, and three on the left wall. Therefore, there are exactly ten cabinet doors, and each cabinet has exactly ten cabinet doors.
The door is about one meter high.
When the seventh cabinet door was opened, there were still banknotes inside, but only a small part. There were also some other types of coins, mainly US dollars and euros, but not many. It seemed that some had been taken away.
When the eighth cabinet door was opened, there were antique calligraphy and paintings inside. Each cabinet door was covered with three layers of wooden boards. The layer below this cabinet door contained some small objects. For example, Chen Ran opened one of the exquisite wooden boxes and took a look inside.
A piece of chicken-blood stone seal. The name of the seal is a name. There are more than one seal. There are chicken-blood stone and Tianhuang stone. There are also some scattered diamonds. They are all packed in a small bag, but the quantity is not too much. The rest
They are also some antiques and old objects.
The upper two floors were filled with calligraphy and paintings. Chen Ran casually pulled out a scroll and opened it, which turned out to be a palace painting by Xu Yang.
Xu Yang was a native of Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, a Qing Dynasty painter with the courtesy name Yunting. He lived in Zhuanzhu Lane, Changmennei. He was good at figure, boundary painting, flowers, birds, grass and insects, and his paintings of plum blossoms were both vigorous and elegant.
In the 16th year of Qianlong's reign, Hongli visited Suzhou in the south, where he painted paintings and enshrined them in the inner court.
When it comes to Ouchi worshipers, the first thing that everyone thinks of is probably Ouchi masters, but in fact, Ouchi worshippers are not necessarily Ouchi masters. Anyone with skills can go to the palace to make offerings, or even just an opera singer if he sings
Once you become famous or are favored by the emperor or concubine at that time, you may be recruited into the palace to serve as a worshiper.
Compared with other aspects of worship, palace painting is undoubtedly a very important aspect. During the Qing Dynasty, every palace was even assigned to a court painter. These painters were assigned to paint in various palaces. Later, they were called "such and such palace painters".
"To call each other, the names found in records include "the painter of Cining Palace", "the painter of Nanxun Palace", "the painter of Qixiang Palace", "the painter of Ruyi Palace", "the painter of Xian'an Palace"
Painter", "Painter of Ceremony Hall", "Painter of Chunyu Shuhe", etc.
The most famous among them is undoubtedly the painter of Ruyi Pavilion, because Ruyi Pavilion is directly managed by the emperor, and almost all painting masters, calligraphers and porcelain masters from all over the country are gathered in this institution. In this way, this Ruyi Pavilion is undoubtedly a
It became a big sign. As long as the scrolls were circulated by the Ruyi Pavilion, they were good things. Later, the Ruyi Pavilion even became a painting school. In modern times, if a painting has the seal of the Ruyi Pavilion, it will be a good thing.
The value of the painting will double.
Xu Yang was a court painter during the Qianlong period. Chen Ran didn't know much about Xu Yang. Apart from knowing that Xu Yang was a court painter during the Qianlong period, he only knew about Xu Yang's "Picture of Presenting Prisoners for the Pacification of the Western Regions" in 2009.
The transaction price of 134 million yuan set a new global auction record for Chinese calligraphy and painting.
It was precisely because of this that Chen Ran knew Xu Yang. After all, he was not a professional. There were so many painters in the country that it was impossible to understand everyone.
The Xu Yang palace painting in front of me is a figure painting, depicting a concubine.
In comparison, this painting is naturally incomparable with the "Picture of Presenting Prisoners to the Pacification of the Western Regions". Let alone the significance of "The Picture of Presenting the Prisoners to the Pacification of the Western Regions" is only the "Qianlong Appreciation" on it, "Qianlong Imperial
This painting is not comparable to the complete collection of five seals such as "Lanzhibao" and "Sanxitang Jingjianxi".
However, this does not mean that this picture of a concubine is worthless. You must know that during the feudal period, the inner palace was isolated from the outside world. Although there may be records in the data that the emperor took a certain concubine in a certain year, but what did the concubine look like?
No one knows what life is like in the palace. Pictures of concubines like this were immediately sealed after they were made. Anyone who dared to peek would be executed by Lingchi. It was impossible for it to spread outside the palace. Later, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces entered China.
, most of these paintings have been lost, even if they were not snatched away, they were burned. In modern times, such paintings naturally have great historical research value, especially because of some kind of psychology, modern people are obsessed with the inner palace at that time.
I am interested in the private life of the concubines. In addition, the paintings painted by the painter are much better than the old photos taken by early cameras. The concubines in the paintings are wearing winter auspicious crowns and red palace clothes.
The sky is clear, the eyes are like pearls and spring water is rippling, and there is a picture of a peerless beauty. This is a priceless treasure for some collectors with special hobbies.
…
After all, the timing was wrong, so Chen Ran didn't look at it too much. He rolled up the scroll again and took a casual look at it before opening the ninth cabinet door.
There are a lot of things placed inside this cabinet door, but most of them are documents and notebooks, and there is a big plastic box at the bottom.
Chen Ran looked through the documents first. These documents turned out to be the share transfer agreement of a certain company, as well as the acquisition and transfer agreement of a certain company. The recipient of all agreements and the legal representative of the company was Zhang Hongjun.
Chen Ran looked at these documents very carefully. He opened almost every document and looked at it. The more he looked at it, the more surprised he was. Although the authenticity of these documents needs to be investigated, there is a high probability that the documents placed here are genuine.
.
Although there is no one-by-one calculation, one can look at the properties owned by Zhang Hongjun and the shares of the company he holds. The total value is roughly estimated to be at least four billion.
Chen Ran didn't expect Zhang Hongjun to be so rich. The value of these industries is at least 4 billion. This is just the bulk of the calculation. Those with less than 100 million are not included. If you add them all up, it will be at least 1 billion more.
Come, and not long ago Zhang Hongjun lost more than 2 billion to him, and there is still so much cash here...
…
After quickly flipping through the documents, Chen Ran immediately looked through the notebook on the second floor.
If Chen Ran was more and more surprised when he looked at those documents, then when he looked at these books, or diaries, or account books, he was more and more frightened.
By this time, Chen Ran was 100% sure that Red Wolf was Zhang Hongjun.
This is determined not because Zhang Hongjun also has the habit of writing diaries, but because the things recorded in these notebooks can be clearly seen. It is true that Zhang Hongjun is a spy, but he does not provide information for free, but every piece of information must be required.
Fees are charged based on the value of the information, so we have such a ledger.
Judging from the records in his account book, Zhang Hongjun does not seem to be serving one person, because in addition to spying on intelligence from the army and various military research institutes, he also spies on the internal information of some important companies. For example, one of the intelligence is that of a certain domestic company.
Research information on a product of a well-known pharmaceutical company.
Zhang Hongjun made a very clear distinction between military intelligence and commercial intelligence. These two types of intelligence are not provided to the same upper level.
Although Chen Ran didn't know much about some things, he could see the importance of the information by looking at the names of the stolen information.
While stealing intelligence, Zhang Hongjun also controlled a large number of government personnel and senior military officials to work for him, knowingly or unknowingly, through various means such as solicitation, bribery, corruption, framing, and drug control.
These people either received Zhang Hongjun's money, had some leverage in Zhang Hongjun's hands, or were controlled by Zhang Hongjun using special drugs.
In addition to government personnel and military officers, Zhang Hongjun also used money to recruit many young masters to work for him. Zhang Hongjun himself has a very profound background, not only from the Zhang family but also from the Rong family. This background alone is undoubtedly enough
He attracted many young men to do things for him, not to mention that he deliberately tried to win over and make friends, but which of the young men he contacted did not have an elder working in the government or the military?
There were more than a dozen young men who took the initiative to steal information and gave it to him in exchange for money. Some young men were just dragged into the trap and just gave him simple information. Some were already deeply involved, and some were even...
Even his parents were caught up in it.
Among them was a major general director of the General Assembly.
This kind of thing can be said to be worse than drugs. Once you get started, you will fall into the abyss and never come out, especially after you taste the sweetness and get money...
It was through this method that Zhang Hongjun developed a network of relationships in a short period of time.
…
"How many people does he have under his control? The boss has known for a long time that this guy is unreliable and has been prepared early in the morning."
After reading these notebooks, Chen Ran suddenly thought of the conversation he just heard between Chen Hu and Chen Hu. Judging from the situation, the boss behind them should be Red Wolf's superior, or one of his superiors.
Red Wolf controls so many people, but what about their boss?
Chen Ran simply didn't dare to look like him.
…
Forget it if you don't know. If you know, whether it's for public or private reasons, Chen Ran obviously has to dig out the other party, otherwise he will obviously not be able to live in peace in the future.
Chen Ran took another look at the box below. After opening it, it was filled with small plastic bags one after another. These small plastic bags contained either U disks or CDs. Some of them came with photos. Each one was filled with small plastic bags.
The names and dates were marked on the outside of the small plastic bags. Chen Ran could tell without even looking that these things were evidence of Zhang Hongjun's efforts to win over those people, and they were also the handle of those people.
In addition, there are some drugs on the side of the box. These drugs are the same as those that Guan Cheng took out from the safe outside just now. They must be the drugs that Zhang Hongjun uses to control people to do things for him.
Chen Ran opened the tenth cabinet door and took a look and didn't care, because it contained all things related to arms. There were military telescopes and other military equipment, as well as various bullets stored in boxes. There were no cannonballs.
of.
The discovery here was obviously beyond the scope of Chen Ran's processing, and there were people outside who saw him entering the villa. In order to avoid long nights and nightmares, he must immediately tell Mr. Yang about the discovery here.
So after checking, Chen Ran immediately took out his phone and prepared to call Director Yang to ask him to come over in person. However, before he could call Director Yang, he found that he was being attacked by a large group of heavily armed troops with live ammunition.
