"I followed them on the street and found that, except in the afternoon, when they would deliver the sold goods to the stores, at other times, they basically walked street by street with notebooks in hand.
There will be no turning back."
"Judging from the information I have now, this group of people is very suspicious. I think we need to focus on them."
After listening to Zhao Pingnian's description, Lin Mo did not speak, but frowned, wondering what he was thinking about.
Lin Mo didn't react until Gong Qiming handed over the information and poked it on his hand.
Lin Mo took the information and read it carefully, but the more he read, the deeper Lin Mo's frown deepened.
After reading the information recorded by Zhao Pingnian, Lin Mo paid special attention to the information found by Xu Zhiyu and wrote down the basic information and appearance of these people.
In the information, Lin Mo learned that the leader of this group was named Chen Shirong. In the photo, it was a scene of Chen Shirong holding a notebook on the street. In the photo, Chen Shirong was wearing a long gown, and the breeze blew the long gown.
, reflecting a somewhat thin figure, with a smile on his face, giving people a kind feeling.
Gong Qiming saw that Lin Mo was in a different state and asked: "Lin Mo, what's wrong? Is there any problem? What did you find out?"
After hearing the teacher's inquiry, Lin Mo considered it for a moment and said: "Teacher, their behavior is very consistent with the situation of business people. There will indeed be many people who specially buy a batch of goods and bring them to one place.
For sale."
"But one thing I don't quite understand is that this way of doing business happens mostly in inner-city cities or remote places."
"A place like Nanjing is not only the capital, but also connected to the Yangtze River. Most of the things found in China can be found."
"Most of the things that are not available in Nanjing are rare, precious or foreign things. And these things are generally not sold in this way. They are basically sold directly to high-end places or the homes of people who are likely to buy them.
of."
"And from my second brother's information, I saw that the places these people go to are basically grocery stores and small shops. What can be sold in these places are basically daily necessities."<
/p>
"Teacher, look, the background of the photo taken by Lao Xu is a very ordinary street. There are no high-end places in these places."
After saying that, Lin Mo handed a photo to the teacher.
Seeing this, the teacher took the photo and looked at it carefully.
After looking at it, Gong Qiming nodded and asked Lin Mo: "Lin Mo, can't these ordinary daily necessities be sold here?"
Hearing the teacher's question, Lin Mo explained: "These very common things can basically be purchased from various trading houses in Nanjing. Of course, it is not impossible to sell them in this way, but this is not the case.
What kind of money will you make?"
"My business also wholesales daily necessities, and it is the largest business in my family. These small shops in Nanjing basically purchase their goods from large businesses like mine."
"As for why merchants can't make money, that's because merchants basically purchase goods from China, even from big merchants like mine, and the cost is very high."
"Big commercial banks are different. Basically, the things they import are purchased in large quantities from factories or foreign businessmen. And most of the time, this kind of purchase is long-term, and the purchase price they can get is very low."
"Including freight charges, large commercial houses generally either have their own ships or have long-term cooperation with shipping companies. Calculated, the freight charges are definitely more than those of merchants."
"After calculating this, many times, after these businessmen transport goods from other places to Nanjing, their cost price is higher than the wholesale price of large commercial banks, and they basically make no money. Of course, there will definitely be some
Unexpected circumstances."
After hearing Lin Mo's last words, Zhao Pingnian asked: "What unexpected situation?"
Hearing Zhao Pingnian's question, Lin Mo replied: "First, the things they sell are rather special and unconventional. Big commercial banks do not conduct large-scale transactions."
"The second thing is that these people don't understand the market at all, so they ran into Nanjing and are now selling at a loss. But in this case, there is another problem."
After saying that, Lin Mo took the photo from the teacher, handed it to Zhao Pingnian, and asked: "Second brother, look at Chen Shirong's mood in the photo?"
"Happy?"
"Yes, he is smiling, and the background is the street. He is definitely not showing it because he wants to communicate with those shopkeepers. It should be from his heart."
"In this case, if he is doing a loss-making business, why would he smile?"
Hearing what Lin Mo said, Zhao Pingnian asked doubtfully: "Does that mean he is selling ordinary things, which means he must be a Japanese spy?"
"You can't say that. If he is selling ordinary things, it only means that there is something wrong with his identity. He doesn't care how much the things he sells are worth, and these things are probably just a cover." p>
"However, we must focus on investigating them now. After all, we have set so many conditions and he still meets these conditions. The suspicion is too high."
Gong Qiming heard what Lin Mo said and said, "Lin Mo, since there is something wrong with them, please tell me how to check it."
Hearing what the teacher said, Lin Mo nodded and said to Zhao Pingnian: "Second brother, next you check the products they sell, and while doing so, check out their accents."
Seeing this, Zhao Pingnian nodded and said, "Okay, let's check as you said."
Lin Mo listened and told Zhao Pingnian some details of the operation and points to pay attention to.
After Zhao Pingnian's matter was resolved, Zhao Changze also described the situation on his side to several people.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The group of people Zhao Changze investigated lived together around the pier, only one or two hundred meters away from the pier. They usually worked hard on the pier, loading and unloading goods, so there was not much suspicion at all.
After Zhao Changze finished speaking, Xu Zhiyu smiled bitterly and said to Lin Mo: "Master Lin, the situation over there is similar. The two groups of people I observed all went to Nanjing to work hard. I observed them all day today. Basically, they
I haven’t been to any far away place, I just started working a few hundred meters away from them.”
The situation of several people in a row was like this. Everyone fell into deep thought, and the atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
Seeing this situation, Gong Qiming said to Lin Mo: "Lin Mo, are there any problems here that we didn't think of?"
When Lin Mo heard this, he frowned and thought for a while, then said, "This situation is indeed beyond my expectation."
"I now have an idea that if Japanese spies disguise themselves as very ordinary workers, especially those who do very hard and tiring work, their activities will be severely restricted."
"Think about it, if Japanese spies disguised themselves as these people, what kind of situation would they encounter?"
After hearing what Lin Mo said, everyone fell into deep thought and carefully thought about the question raised by Lin Mo.
Xu Zhiyu thought for a while and then said to Lin Mo: "Master Lin, although I don't know what the Japanese spies will encounter. But I have the experience of working at the dock. Can I tell you about my feelings while working?
?"
When Lin Mo heard this, he nodded and motioned for Xu Zhiyu to continue. When the others heard what Xu Zhiyu said, they all looked over.
Seeing this, Xu Zhiyu said: "When I was in Shanghai, I worked at the dock for a while when I was eighteen or nineteen years old."
"Working at the dock is very tiring. Basically, after working for a whole day, the whole body aches. After working, we basically don't have much energy anymore, let alone wandering around."
Hearing this, Lin Mo nodded to Xu Zhiyu and said, "That's the situation. If the Japanese spies really want to disguise themselves as these people, then if they want to avoid exposing themselves, they have to do the same work as these people."<
/p>
"But in this case, fatigue will become a problem and it will definitely affect their actions."
"Even if they pretend to be doing ordinary work, not so tiring work, they will definitely have to work during the day, and it will definitely have a great impact on their actions."
After hearing what Lin Mo said, everyone nodded.
Zhao Pingnian saw this situation from the side and asked Lin Mo: "Lin Mo, can we exclude all these migrant workers?"
When Lin Mo heard this, he shook his head and said, "No, even though that's what he said, we can't rule out Japanese spies doing the opposite."
"But with this conjecture, we can feel a lot more relaxed. The current observation of these people is mainly focused on whether they have any abnormal movements."
"After all, these people who go to work in the city have relatively simple and uniform behaviors. Most of the time they are either working in their residences or on the street. This can alleviate a lot of work."
"Another point is that the migrant workers in Nanjing are not from the surrounding areas of Nanjing, but most likely from the south. In the south, there are many dialects, and in some places, there are even several in one county." p>
"When we exclude people, we can focus on accents and dialects. After all, many people who work together basically come from the same small place. I don't believe that the Japanese can specially cultivate a group of people whose accents and dialects are from the same small place.
People of the place.”
"Yes, Brother Lin, the place in our county is just like what you said. Although the accent is the same, there are some dialects there that even I can't understand. I don't believe that the Japanese can cultivate a group of these people.
”
After hearing what Yu Youdong said, everyone nodded.
Seeing this, Gong Qiming said: "In this case, the person responsible for checking the migrant workers will focus on their accent and dialect in the next few days."
