"Before the 30th? Doesn't that mean there are only four days left?"
"To be precise, there are still three and a half days left!" Li Qiang corrected, "It stands to reason that your club has been operating here for so long, so it should have a plan to deal with such emergencies, right?"
"Yes, yes, but time is too tight, right?"
"Because time is tight and the task is heavy, we must take time into consideration as an important factor in every next step from now on."
"Well, I agree with this. So... what's the next plan?"
"Simple, you go and get that batch of arms. As for the verification team, leave it to me. But you must give me an accurate time."
"Two days."
Hearing this, Li Qiang couldn't help but squint his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal, nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
Then he flicked the information in his hand with his fingers, "As for the specific plan, I have to go back and study it carefully. I will take these information first."
Momoi Sana nodded slightly and made a please gesture.
After the brief meeting, Li Qiang went straight back to the room with the information provided by Momoi Sana and handed it all over to Haitang.
"Well, all the information you need is here. The rest is up to you."
"Don't worry, leave it to me! It's just a verification team, we can get it done before dark!"
"Listening to what you said, I feel much more at ease now!" Having said this, Li Qiang walked to the closet and disguised himself and asked, "By the way, where did you get the information last time?"
"Why, the legendary white-eyed wolf is coming out again?" Haitang, who had already entered the role and carefully analyzed the information at hand, couldn't help but glance at Li Qiang, who had just changed his outfit, and still couldn't help teasing.
Now Li Qiang couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly argued: "What white-eyed wolf? It's obviously a 'white wolf', okay?"
"Okay, okay, I won't kid you. I'm already so old, and yet I'm so excited just because of a code name. I'm like a child... There is a Catholic church near the small south gate. There is a confessional room second from the left after entering.
, find Father Joseph.”
"Father Joseph? Foreigner?"
"Of course they are Chinese, those are just a cover to hide others."
"How did you find such a secret place?"
However, Haitang just smiled and said nothing, with no intention of explaining. Li Qiang had no choice but to shrug and left the room with good sense.
Half an hour later, Li Qiang arrived at the church Haitang mentioned.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Qiang immediately noticed a row of confession rooms under the corridor on the right side of the chapel, specifically for believers to perform confession.
Although today is neither a public holiday nor a weekend, there are queues in front of every confession room, especially the second confession room from the left. The number of people in the second confession room is half that of the other teams, so there is no need to ask.
I know that many of them came with the same purpose as Li Qiang.
After queuing for a full hour, it was finally Li Qiang's turn.
However, as soon as he entered, Li Qiang was suffocated by the cramped and narrow space. He half-hunched over and knelt on the stage in front of the dialogue window. The feeling was extremely uncomfortable.
"Father!" After a long while, Li Qiang finally squeezed out a sentence through his teeth.
At this moment, an old voice rang, "My child!"
"I'm guilty!"
"We are all guilty, my child, each in a different way. Tell me, what is the worst thing you have ever done in your life?"
"Sorry, Father, I want Father Joseph to confess for me." After saying that, he stuffed a small yellow croaker through the window.
After a short time, another deep voice said in fluent Chinese: "What do you need?"
"Detailed movements of the Kwantung Army Headquarters in the past two weeks."
"Japanese intelligence? It's not cheap!"
"Tell me, maybe I can afford it."
"Two gold bars."
"how long it takes?"
"Two days."
"What if I want it now?"
As soon as these words came out, the other person was silent for a moment, and then continued: "That's the other price, four gold bars."
"Deal!" With that said, Li Qiang stuffed the four gold bars over without blinking.
"Wait!"
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the man finally came back and handed a heavy document bag into Li Qiang's hands.
Li Qiang didn't shy away from it. He checked it on the spot and quickly found what he wanted.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Seeing that something was wrong with Li Qiang's reaction, the man couldn't help but ask.
"Please report to the newspaper that the Kwantung Army Headquarters sent an inspection team as early as the 22nd, the day the German-Soviet war started. No matter how long the road from Xinjing to Fengtian was, it should have arrived in two days. Why did it take so long to arrive?
Woolen cloth?"
"Need to post a bounty?"
"Go ahead! I'll give you three gold bars, and I'll give you a two-day reward. If you finish it ahead of schedule, there will be an extra reward. After you finish the job, make this call and tell me that Manager Liu is here from Shanghai."
"Okay, I'll spread the news right now, and I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."
When we left the church, the sky, which was originally only gray, started to rain lightly.
However, Li Qiang did not return to the Peace Hotel. Instead, he hailed a rickshaw and rushed to Xinglong Restaurant in the drizzle.
Before the driver could stop the car, Wu Shibao, who had been waiting at the door, immediately came over holding an umbrella, respectfully helped Li Qiang out of the car, and even took the initiative to pay the fare for him.
He has the image of a loyal butler.
"Is everyone here?"
"arrive!"
After a brief conversation, Li Qiang, led by Wu Shibao, went straight to a private room on the second floor of the restaurant.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw four dark-skinned strong men sitting around a large Eight Immortals table. Although they were dressed in different styles, they all had a wide and hard waist wrapped around their waists.
Hardcore.
You must know that this tough guy is a standard equipment for bandits in this era. Even if he is not a bandit, ordinary people can still be tough when they talk to him.
Not only that, those few people also brought their own little brothers, and the private room that was originally relatively spacious was immediately filled to the brim, and there was almost no room to stand.
"What is this for? I called you here to discuss business, not negotiation. If you don't know better, you would think you are going to have a fight!"
As soon as these words came out, those bandit leaders looked at me and me, but after watching for a long time, no one took any action.
Now Wu Shibao couldn't stand it any longer. He slammed the table and shouted fiercely: "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what my young master said?"
"Xiao Wu, don't yell when you come up, be polite!" After speaking, Li Qiang said to the four bandit leaders with a smile, "I ask again, are you here to discuss business, or are you here to discuss business?"
Are you here for Huobin?"
Although Li Qiang said this with a smile, for some reason, the bandit leaders who had already killed many people all shuddered in unison.
Immediately afterwards, as if they had made an appointment, they all waved their hands and drove out all their younger brothers without leaving a trace.
Li Qiang nodded and sat down on the main seat without hesitation. He said with satisfaction: "That's right! If you want to do big things, don't fix the frivolous things. It's of no use! Come on."
Before he finished speaking, Wu Shibao introduced Li Qiang one by one, "Master, let me introduce to you. This is the head of Qipan Mountain, Zhao Erhu."
Although this Zhao Erhu is the most plainly dressed among the four, and can even be described as shabby, and even his sideburns and beard make him look a bit slovenly, there is still a vague sense of righteousness between his brows. This is just because of the heat.
The behavior of Tian Tian with a tattered cotton hat on his head was very strange to people.
"This is Xu Wanhai, the head of Heilonggou, known as 'Xu Bapao'. Each of his four sons is a hero of the forest, known as the 'Four Tigers of the Xu Family'."
Compared with Zhao Erhu before, Wu Shibao talked a lot more when introducing Xu Bapao.
Although this person was sitting from beginning to end, according to Li Qiang's visual inspection, this person was six feet tall, with broad arms and a thick waist, and a face full of flesh. He also carried a big stick with thorns on his back, which made him very uncomfortable.
People are impressed.
Although he was wearing an old police uniform and had a mustache on his lips, the most popular civilized mustache among the upper classes, he could not hide the gangster spirit that seemed to emanate from his bones.
But based on Wu Shibao's introduction to him, this person's status and strength in the green forest world must be much higher than that of Zhao Erhu.
"This is Zhang Da, the head of Barhu Mountain. He is known as a mountain eagle. He has countless brothers under his command. He is unparalleled in loyalty. All the brothers on the road respectfully call him 'Third Master' when they see him."
This person is the only one among the four who has a bare head. His bald head is as bright as a mirror. He has a pair of narrow eyes and an aquiline nose that almost touches his upper lip. Plus, there is a pair of hair under his mouth.
He has a goatee that is more than four inches long, but from this aspect it can almost be concluded that this person must be a very scheming, insidious and cunning master.
"There is also Zheng Sanpao from Malshan. It is said that as long as he is within the range of the gun, he can only kill with a maximum of three guns."
The last one, Zheng Sanpao, can be said to be the most bandit-like among the four. He has a satin-lined hat, double-breasted jacket, tight-leg breeches, elbow pads and sleeves, all of which make him look like a real bandit.
The standard equipment of the deputy Northeastern bandits.
However, it is not difficult to tell from his overly standard bandit configuration that this person has definitely not been a bandit for a long time. At least in the eyes of the other three, he must still be a fledgling newcomer.
After listening to Wu Shibao's introduction, Li Qiang bowed his hands to the four people and said, "Guys, I've known your names for a long time. Let me introduce yourselves. My surname is Du. You can call me Mr. Du, or you can call me Young Master like Xiao Wu.
.”
Before he finished speaking, Xu Wanhai slammed the table and said unceremoniously: "Stop talking nonsense, I want to know right now, how big of a deal is it that we have to call all four of us together to discuss it?
"
"Let me tell you this, Mr. Xu, as long as he can successfully complete this task, I can't guarantee anything else, but it should be more than enough to make you and your brothers popular and popular for three to five years."
"Real or false?" When Xu Wanhai heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.
At this moment, a gloomy voice suddenly rang out, "Xu Bapao, don't be fooled by this kid. If we could all get so many benefits, how big would it be?"
A one-vote deal?"
You don't need to look to know that the person speaking is not someone else, but he is wearing a stinky face from beginning to end, and his face is full of gloom.
After being reminded by the mountain eagle, Xu Wanhai also said, "Well, what the third master said is reasonable. Du, if you want our brothers to work for you, at least we should prove it first! It's not like this."
Let’s rob a bank together, shall we?”
Before he finished speaking, Wu Shibao went up and gave him a slap in the face, and yelled angrily: "You bastard! Why is Mr. Du talking? Is your surname Du the same? I'm polite to you, that's the quality of our Mr. Du.
, is not the reason for your arrogance, do you understand?"
This slap didn't hurt much, but it was still very insulting.
How could Xu Wanhai, a very brave and face-saving person, endure this? What's more, in front of so many bandit leaders, what if this spreads out?
Thinking of this, Xu Wanhai suddenly panicked and stretched out his hand to draw the big stick from behind.
However, before he could touch the big stick, the gun in Wu Shibao's hand was already pressed against his head.
"Wu, this is causing trouble. Do you dare to shoot?" Although Xu Wanhai's heart had already cooled down after seeing Wu Shibao's gun, he still had to fight with him because of his face.
The feeling of not being able to go up or down is unbearable.
Unexpectedly, Wu Shibao was not frightened after hearing this, but laughed loudly, "Please understand, there is no trouble here. If I shoot and kill a commoner, I may not be able to protect my life and I will be sued, but if I kill a bandit leader,
, maybe you can even get a lot of rewards! If I remember correctly, your Xu Bapao's head is worth a lot of money!"
At this moment, Xu Wanhai's men outside the door seemed to hear something wrong in the room, so they rushed in with a roar. Xu Wanhai was so angry that he jumped up from his chair and cursed, "What the fuck!"
Bazi, who let you in? Get out!"
Although those subordinates were scolded inexplicably, they invisibly rescued their eldest brother.
Looking at Xu Wanhai, after blasting his men out, when he talked to Li Qiang again, his attitude had improved a lot, "Young Master Du, this is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I am just a rough man, and I am offended by my words."
Please forgive me, Mr. Du."
Hearing this, Li Qiang glanced at Wu Shibao reproachfully, "How many times have I told you to be more polite from now on, but why can't you remember? Why don't you put the gun away quickly?"
