Zhang Yong followed the Japanese spy "Seinfeld" into Asia's shop.
This is the largest pawnshop in the whole of Hangzhou. It has five shops lined up in a row and is magnificent. At first glance, it shows that it has very strong financial resources.
No matter what it is, you can use it to impress the shopkeeper here.
As long as you have it, you can make an offer.
Of course, the price may be very low.
Other people's homes have 30 oceans of oceans, but here, it may only have 25 oceans of oceans.
The difference is so big, but business is good.
Without him, it would dare to invent the invention.
The so-called clear objects are the burial objects dug out of the ground.
If it were placed in later generations, the starting time would be three years, and the maximum would be indefinite. But now, no one cares.
A lot of treasures were lost in this way.
Zhang Yong squinted around and found that the place was crowded with people and a large number of tomb robbers appeared.
Many people have gold marks on their bodies, indicating that they all carry gold objects dug out of the ground. I don’t know exactly what they are. But they must be expensive. Many people have exchanged hundreds of silver dollars. They are very happy.
went.
The shopkeeper carefully wrapped the received utensils in red silk, put them away, packed them in boxes, and pushed them to the warehouse at the back. These were all dead. In fact, they were bought out. The price was higher. They would never do it again.
Redemption is tantamount to selling in disguise.
The spy came to the counter and handed the jade butterfly over.
The counter here is not high-end. It is just an ordinary counter. It makes people feel more comfortable.
"Hold on."
The teller took Jade Butterfly to the back.
Soon after, a blond and blue-eyed foreigner appeared. He looked very tall.
He looked at Song Fei and Zhang Yong up and down, without saying anything, and made a gesture of invitation. He led them out from the side door to an open space outside.
There are some simple tables, chairs and benches here. They are all made of wood. They are bulky but very strong.
"Please sit down." The foreigner said in Chinese.
That's not good to say.
But it's not bad either.
Can communicate normally.
Zhang Yong then sat down. Sein Fei then sat down. Then came the foreigners.
"My name is Wiggins."
"Mr. Wiggins, I am entrusted by someone..."
"I've seen you. You were also present when we traded at Jinshanwei last time."
"Yes. Mr. Wiggins, you have a very good memory."
"Who is he? I've never seen him."
"He is the son of our head family. Come with me."
"To spy on you?"
"this……"
Seinfeld said nothing.
Zhang Yong looked unmoved.
This Wiggins speaks very directly.
That's right, I'm just here to monitor the other party. What's wrong? Is there any problem?
"You Chinese people have really low trust."
"Mr. Wiggins..."
"Just tell me. How many of you need to get on board?"
"Fifty."
"Before boarding the ship, each person pays five hundred U.S. dollars. I will take you to Shanghai. In Shanghai, you can take the ship to San Francisco. The ticket is five hundred U.S. dollars per person. All must be paid before boarding the ship."
"clear."
Sein Fei nodded. Apparently he was mentally prepared.
Zhang Yong was secretly surprised.
Damn!
This Sun Dingyuan is so rich.
One person is $1,000! Fifty people is $50,000!
fifty thousand!
Wow!
So many dollars!
Just send fifty people to the United States. What a loss.
real.
Under normal circumstances, a ferry ticket from Shanghai to San Francisco costs about US$150.
Not cost effective.
Too uneconomical.
It would be better to give me Zhang Yong.
I, Zhang Yong, guarantee that every dollar is worth it...
etc.
Fifty people? Not more than a hundred?
Could it be said that Sun Dingyuan only has fifty confidants? The rest are cannon fodder?
At this time, there are at least a hundred people following Sun Dingyuan. They should all be bewitched by Sun Dingyuan. They think that Sun Dingyuan will take them to the United States. But, in fact, only fifty people can leave. The others will be
abandon.
It is even unknown whether fifty people were able to board the ship smoothly in the end. Zhang Yong always felt that this matter was not very reliable.
The American lion opened his mouth. Sun Dingyuan has agreed now. But will he regret it later?
The answer is yes. Who is Sun Dingyuan? He is a habitual gangster.
How can a habitual gangster have any credibility? He can abandon anyone for his own interests in the future.
If given the chance, he could go to the United States alone and save more dollars. Sun Dingyuan would definitely choose to abandon the others, or even kill them all. Of course, there is no need to waste dollars on dead people.
"perhaps……"
"Something can be done here..."
Zhang Yong tilted his head and thought for a while.
Unfortunately, I didn't think of anything in the end, so I had to put it down for the time being.
"in addition……"
Wiggins suddenly said again.
He glanced at Zhang Yong, as if he thought he was in some way.
However, Zhang Yong looked motionless and still sat motionless.
He doesn't need to speak.
He is here to monitor Seinfeld. What are you talking about?
"Mr. Wiggins, tell me."
"An additional security deposit of five thousand dollars is required."
"Why?"
"I guarantee that nothing unpleasant will happen to you during the journey."
"Can."
Seinfeld agreed.
Zhang Yong sneered secretly in his heart.
This Wiggins is also a money-grubber. He reaches out for money.
What kind of deposit? It sounds nice, but in fact it falls into his own pocket. If you give it out, you will definitely not get it back.
How to get it back?
By then, Sun Dingyuan had already landed in San Francisco. Wiggins was still in Hangzhou.
Could it be that the Americans in San Francisco would give Sun Dingyuan $5,000? It’s a dream.
When Sun Dingyuan and others landed, the Americans there did not extort them and asked for a landing fee.
No. It definitely will.
Landing fee must be paid.
All Chinese people who arrive on the other side of the ocean, as long as they do not have official status, will inevitably have to pay another amount of money.
Otherwise, if you are not familiar with the place where you were born, you will be blind and you will not know how you died.
At this moment, the other side of the ocean is still in a rough period like the "American West", where barbarism grows. The folk customs are "simple", everyone is equipped with a gun, and American-style settlements are used to solve problems when there is a disagreement. Most Chinese people have arrived
There are all bullied masters there.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Yong spoke, "Mr. Wiggins, where did we disembark in San Francisco? After we disembark, is our safety guaranteed?"
"Of course." Wiggins replied firmly, "We will send a telegram to San Francisco and have someone pick you up."
"After landing, don't you need to pay any more fees?"
"Of course not."
"Really?"
"How can you cooperate if you don't even believe us?"
"I'm sorry. I'm just asking. I'm worried that after arriving in San Francisco, we will need to spend a lot of money to get ashore smoothly."
"There is no such thing."
Wiggins categorically denied it, but he knew it was true.
All Chinese who arrive in San Francisco will be blackmailed by local people for money. This is inevitable.
If you don't have money, you will be beaten up. Then sent to do coolies, build railways, or mine. If anyone dares to resist, they will be killed directly. Then they will be thrown into the Pacific Ocean or thrown into a deep mine. It's basically impossible.
Nobody knows.
"Five thousand dollars is too much..."
"You don't have to give it. But I can't guarantee whether there will be any accidents on your way."
"All right……"
Zhang Yong pretended to be reluctant.
Five thousand dollars is not a small amount of money. It can buy an outdated Hawker-2 aircraft.
To be honest, the only reason why the air planning department was interested in the Curtiss Hawker-2 aircraft and the newly launched Hawker-3 aircraft was probably because they were cheap. If you buy aircraft from other companies, the same goes for
With the money, you can only buy fifty. But if you buy the Curtiss one, you can buy a hundred.
If one hundred planes are laid out, they will definitely look better than fifty!
If Chiang Kai-shek asked him how many planes the Air Force has, your answer of one hundred would definitely be more powerful than your answer of fifty.
Lao Jiang himself didn't know much about airplanes, so he couldn't always ask about his wife's affairs.
What if my wife is unhappy?
"Deposit."
Wiggins said again.
Song Fei turned to look at Zhang Yong.
All the banknotes he brought were snatched away by Zhang Yong.
If a deposit is required, Zhang Yong can only come up with it.
However, how could the banknote that fell into Zhang Yong's pocket be easily taken out?
Zhang Yong was already heartbroken that he had just lost Ding Furong's three million. At this moment, he would not be willing to part with even ten oceans. Let alone ten thousand?
"Mr. Wiggins, where is your promise?" Zhang Yong said calmly.
The other party didn't have a gun. He wasn't afraid.
There was actually a gun in the pawn shop, but it wasn't on the person's body.
Zhang Yong was confident that he was sure of victory against such a target without a gun.
No matter how fierce Wiggins is, he can't withstand the shooting of the Colt M1911 large-caliber pistol. If all seven rounds of 11.43 mm bullets are fired, a bear can be killed.
"What promise?" Wiggins' face began to look ugly.
"What you say is unfounded. We can't believe you." Zhang Yong calmly said, "At least, you should tell us when to get on the ship and what ship to get on. We can't know everything. Otherwise, you took it
If the money runs away, then we are trying to draw water from a bamboo basket but in vain."
"What do you want to know?"
"First, how do we leave Hangzhou."
"I will use the form of a caravan to hide you in the middle of the group."
"There are checks everywhere now..."
"I'm an American. You Chinese don't dare to check."
"What ship will we take when we get to the pier?"
"Our American freighter Goddess."
"However, as far as I know, there are no American merchant ships at the Qiantang River pier."
"Not yet. However, it will arrive in three days."
"In other words, we still need to wait three days."
"Three days will pass quickly."
"The place where we are currently hiding is not safe. I hope we can move to your pawn shop."
"no."
Wiggins decisively refused.
He knows what kind of person Sun Dingyuan is. He must not lead a wolf into the house.
Simply sending them out of Hangzhou is no problem. However, if they are allowed to stay in Asia Hotel, there will be endless troubles.
No one knows what will happen when that group of robbers (bandits) get here.
He has dealt with Sun Dingyuan and knows Sun Dingyuan's bottom line very well. That guy has no bottom line at all.
"It's not safe where we are hiding now." Zhang Yong frowned.
"That's your business." Wiggins still refused, "We are only responsible for sending you away."
"We can add money."
"no."
Wiggins still refused.
The tone is quite strong.
Zhang Yong then judged that this guy definitely knew Sun Dingyuan and probably knew the other person very well.
Otherwise, Wiggins would not have been so decisive.
"We have five more British people over there. You can trust them..."
"Shut up! You're talking about Greco and the others. They are all warmongers and hooligans. I don't want to deal with them."
"Mr. Wiggins, you are exaggerating..."
"I'm sorry. I will never meet Greco and the others. They are all pirates..."
"All right."
Zhang Yong pretended to be helpless.
At the same time, I wrote down the name Greg. These five British people seem to be a little evil?
Wiggins actually mentioned that they were pirates. This is interesting.
Pirates. No wonder they can disappear mysteriously.
For pirates, there is really no risk in Hangzhou Bay. They can easily escape by diving into the water.
It seems that the five British people that Kong Fansong was worried about had an accident were simply not coming from the right way. They just took a smooth sailing to Hangzhou. Then they quietly left by water to find Sun Dingyuan. Kong Fansong thought that something strange had happened.
.
Haha. Do you want to call and tell Kong Fansong the truth?
of course not.
Tell the truth and there will be no dollars left.
It is enough to tell Kong Fansong that the five British people have been found and are safe and sound.
Then, the rewards should be rewarded. The favors should be owed.
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Yong said slowly: "But, Mr. Greco said..."
"Don't mention the pirate Greg in front of me." Wiggins began to look ugly, "What he said has no credibility."
"But. He said..."
"Even if he pays ten thousand dollars, I won't take him on board. Tell him to let him die!"
"Mr. Wiggins..."
"You tell him not to think that he is from the Far East Fleet, and I will give him face. I don't want to see him. He should not appear in front of me. Otherwise, I will kill him with one shot. Even MI7
It’s useless to show up everywhere.”
"All right……"
Zhang Yong reluctantly agreed.
Then I was secretly surprised.
A lot of information.
These five British people are actually from the British Far East Fleet? Are they related to MI7?
In other words, before the outbreak of World War II, there was still some strength left in the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. It had not completely disappeared. The strength of the Far East Fleet was also considered strong. It had one super battleship, three ordinary battleships, and seven cruisers.
The more than thirty destroyers and the like stationed in Singapore are indeed quite capable.
That super battleship seems to be called "Prince of Wales"? It has a standard displacement of 35,000 tons and a full load displacement of 40,000 tons. It is equipped with 10 14-inch main guns. 14 inches is 356 mm. Compared with the Yamato battleship, it is indeed lagging behind.
etc……
Zhang Yong fell into thinking.
Not long after, he remembered. It seemed that the two were closely related.
The Prince of Wales seemed to have been built in 1937, launched in 1939, completed and put into service in 1941, and then sunk by Japanese aircraft at the end of the year.
seems like it……
I can't remember the details. That's pretty much it.
Its rapid sinking signified that the battleship was almost helpless in the face of aircraft.
What is confusing is that it was a Japanese aircraft that sank the Prince of Wales. However, the senior Japanese officials did not realize that the era of battleships had passed. Instead, they continued to strengthen battleships and ignored aircraft carriers. It was also a mysterious operation. In the end, the battleship Yamato
He was also killed by a plane.
Speaking of being short-lived, the Prince of Wales was indeed short-lived.
I wonder if I can use it to make some articles?
Take back your thoughts.
"Mr. Wiggins, we need to go back and discuss it." Zhang Yong said slowly.
"Then hurry up. Don't wait until the time comes." Wiggins was very unhappy.
He waved his hand and told them to get out of here, then left on his own.
Zhang Yong and the spy stood up, turned around and left.
The two walked out of the pawn shop.
The Japanese spy waited for Zhang Yong's instructions very respectfully.
"Team Leader Zhang..."
"When you go back, tell me that the arrangements have been made. We will set off in three days. However, we need to leave in batches. Moreover, we cannot carry weapons."
"However, Sun Dingyuan may not believe it. He will continue to send people to verify it."
"I will guard outside. If one comes out, I will catch one. Make sure your words are the same."
"All right."
Although being a spy feels a bit dangerous, that's all it can do.
Since he was determined to betray Sun Dingyuan, he certainly hoped that Zhang Yong would catch Sun Dingyuan and then execute this guy.
"Then I'll leave first."
"Go for it!"
Zhang Yong nodded.
The spy then turned and left.
Zhang Yong silently monitored the map and found that the spy did not choose to escape.
This guy really wants Sun Dingyuan's life.
Sun Dingyuan probably never expected that among the people around him, there were Japanese undercover agents. There were three of them.
He wanted to throw away the Japanese. How could the Japanese be willing to do so?
Continue to monitor.
Suddenly, a marked character entered the edge of the map.
Astonishingly, it was Yang Lichu who came.
He hurriedly went over to greet him.
Sure enough, Yang Lichu showed up alone.
Zhang Yong:……
OK, well come!
Excitedly, she hugged Yang Lichu and gave her a wet French kiss.
"Don't……"
Yang Lichu wanted to resist.
However, Zhang Yong was too impatient to resist.
In the end, he succeeded.
However, Zhang Yong wanted to explore further, but she stopped him.
After all, she was a woman from a wealthy family and would not let Zhang Yong mess around. She pushed the eager guy away angrily.
"You came so quickly."
"Chen Shanben was speeding again. He was in the solitary room again."
"oh?"
Zhang Yong suddenly felt very interesting.
This Chen Shanben speeds every time he flies. He is imprisoned every three days.
It's also strange. He is in confinement, but it does not affect his flight. There seems to be no ban on flying. After he comes out of the confinement room, he can go to heaven again.
"Actually, it was not Chen Shanben who was speeding, but the plane was too slow."
"Yes. These aircraft are now obsolete. However, the Germans are unwilling to talk to us about the BF109, so we cannot buy better aircraft."
"Better planes..."
Zhang Yong fell into thinking.
Indeed, now is the most difficult time for the aviation industry.
Even, a little lifeless.
Due to the impact of the economic crisis, all major airlines are dying.
Even well-known companies such as Boeing and McDonnell Douglas are dying now. Lockheed, which will become the next generation fighter giant, is still a small company.
The P-38, P-40, P-47, P51 and the like have not yet come out.
Even the Zero carrier-based aircraft has not yet appeared.
If you want to buy a fighter jet, there really are no good choices.
However, in July next year, the Japanese invaders will invade China and a full-scale war of resistance will break out. We must have a sufficient number of fighter jets.
It is impossible to defeat the Japanese in the early stage. However, at least the Japanese aviation forces must pay a greater price so that the rear area can be more properly protected. Tragedies like the Chongqing bombing can even be avoided as much as possible.
Hey, what should we do now?
Unexpected.
I had to change the topic temporarily.
"How is the statistics at the dock? Does Xuan Tiewu make false accounts?"
"He didn't dare."
"So how many are counted now?"
"Three million and seven hundred thousand."
"Is it all in the ocean?"
"right."
"ah……"
Zhang Yong's heart was bleeding.
More than three million yuan is now in the ocean! Damn, how rich is Ding Furong.
They are almost catching up with Tianjin Wei's Yuan Wenhui and others.
Big loss...
It’s really a big loss...
I intercepted a gold mountain, but only got a gold leaf.
Woo woo woo...
I want to cry. Really.
I want to explode on the spot.
Fortunately, Yang Lichu pulled him back with one word.
