"President, something happened over there with Lan Wei Ai!"
"What? Something happened to Lan Wei Ai?"
The slightly stout man, who was quite majestic as he sat behind the desk, stood up and stared intensely at Toshihiro Kosugi in front of him.
"Something happened to the people we arranged in Lan Wei Ai!" Kosugi Junhao quickly added.
The fat man breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Xiaoshan dissatisfied, and then asked: "What's going on? Tell me in detail."
"...Hai..." Xiaoshan responded quickly and explained the situation in detail.
It turned out that they had deployed personnel to monitor the situation at Lan Weimai's side early in the morning, but the other party did not report the situation yesterday.
However, before, Kosugi was so busy with the series of events that followed after he intervened in the redemption matter the night before that he didn't notice it until night.
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the case. After all, the price of silver had just plummeted, so he should report the situation there, so he asked someone to take the initiative to contact him.
Since he had not heard of any special situation at Lan Weimai's side, he paid no attention to it and took people to deal with it. During the meeting, he called and asked them to collect information about the public outcry in Shanghai.
As a result, this morning, the person who had arranged to contact him came to report that he had not dialed the other party's number last night, and has not been dialed since. He had a hunch that something was wrong, and immediately took someone to check.
“…The person who arranged it did not know where to go, but found some people who were tied up in his home. It was understood that it was not our people who did it, but they were caught and imprisoned there by others. Something should have happened to our people.
"
"What happened to those people who were tied up?" President Fafu frowned and motioned to Xiaosugi to explain the situation clearly first.
"At first, he said that he was robbed and kidnapped, and was arrested and imprisoned for no reason. Later, he took the person away and used some tricks. After separate interrogations, it was basically confirmed that he was also targeting Lan Weixiao.
The background sources are quite mixed, some are arranged by Chinese businessmen and Chinese capital, some are arranged by brokers, gangs, banks, etc., and some are supposed to be working for Europeans and Americans.
The night before yesterday, they were awakened by some noise and saw trucks coming and going from the alley behind Lan Weimai and the bank. They were suspected of secretly transporting silver. They were about to leave to report the news, but they were subdued and tied up by people hiding in the dark.
In addition, according to them, those who kidnapped them should also be Japanese nationals, because many of their actions were similar to ours, and some people said that he vaguely heard those people speaking a few words in Japanese."
After hearing this, President Fafu frowned and asked: "What actions has the president taken in the past few days? Is there anything unusual?"
Kosugi Toshihiro shook his head and said: "My life and work are going on as usual. I seem to have a lot of support. I don't seem to be worried about the impact of the falling silver price."
"I remember you reported before that the president didn't bring many subordinates. Can you confirm this?"
Hearing this, Xiao Shan thought about it for a while, then shook his head and said, "I'm not sure. You also know that person's background. A member of the family has been in charge of the consortium for many years, and no one knows how much power is hidden behind it.
Moreover, the Lan Wei Ai incident was not only controlled by them alone, no one knows how many arrangements they made behind the scenes. At least based on the strength and depth of our investigation, it is normal for there to be things that have not been discovered."
The president frowned, nodded slightly, and walked around the room thinking. He didn't know whether this was a warning to him or something else, but there was no action or expression there, which was really weird!
"President, do you want to come forward to negotiate with that person?" Xiaoshan waited for a while, and saw the president walking behind the table and sitting down to drink tea, then he asked.
"...No..." The president shook his head and rejected it, saying: "Peering into other people's secrets from behind and talking about them with them is a very inappropriate and taboo behavior. Don't talk nonsense anymore.
Since the person has been caught by the other party, how to deal with it can only be done by the other party. It is not appropriate to interfere in this matter. If you say anything, the other party will come to you sooner or later."
Kendo and the like attach great importance to rules and etiquette. He may not be a person who abides by the rules, but that's right. He will not mess with people of equal or higher status.
"Stand back now! Pay more attention to this matter, and I will try to find a way through other channels to see if I can get some news."
After asking Kosugi Junhao to step down, President Fafu continued to consider the matter, but he did not consider Lin Mo and others. One was too shocking, and the other, his news did not show such signs.
Although his information channels are not bad, in Shanghai, his intelligence sources are limited after all, and he can only get a rough idea of many situations.
In the whole of Shanghai, perhaps only Lan Wei'ai and others, who are feeling uneasy, and Te Gaoke, who feels vaguely uneasy, are the closest to the truth of the matter.
But after all, the attention of all parties has been gradually attracted to Lan Weixiao, and it will eventually be exposed, it just depends on the time.
…
"That guy, I don't know if he has any serious illness, but he actually got excited when he saw us!"
"What are you talking about?" As soon as he entered the temporary settlement, Shi Baocun heard two brothers chatting about something unknown and asked.
"...That's it...didn't you ask us to show up in front of Morishita? When Morishita saw us, the one who was excited..."
Listening to his subordinates' description, Shi Baocun frowned slightly and said: "Don't forget, this is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. Don't be careless about any abnormal situation, or you may fall into trouble."
The two of them nodded in agreement, and then one of them spoke, "Brother Bao, don't worry! After discovering the situation, we retreated, being extremely careful along the way, and also asked several other groups to make sure there was no tail behind us.
Moreover, we also asked another group of people to secretly stare at Morishita, and there was nothing unusual. Seeing that he changed from being distracted to being very energetic, and kept walking around the shops without coming into contact with anyone suspicious, he must be really excited.
."
Shi Baocun nodded. He would naturally believe the words of his team members and just make sure they did not relax their vigilance. He was worried that the big operation would go so smoothly that his team members would be a little impatient.
"If that's the case, it's a good thing. It can probably delay things for a while longer. But you have to be vigilant at all times. If you look around in the morning, there are a lot of suspicious figures. Damn it, it's like you've stung a hornet's nest!"
Shi Baocun cursed, told the brothers what he had discovered, and asked about their respective actions. They made some research and summary together before giving up.
…
"Sir, there are a lot of suspicious activities in Lan Weimai's area, and we accidentally discovered a situation. The president's people took away a group of people from the vicinity of Lan Weimao for some unknown reason."
After hearing Suzuki's report, Takeuchi frowned. There was no good news, right? He was so ambitious that he wanted to start a public opinion war, but he was caught off guard before it even started.
Climbing along the pole and taking advantage of the situation, I was almost taken into the ditch. I wanted to save it, but the public opinion turned directly into the ditch. I became a fool, an idiot, and became a joke.
As a result, wait and see, this news came again. Suzuki said it euphemistically, but how could he not hear it?
There are many suspicious persons, and it is certainly not possible that they all belong to those people. Rather, it is unknown how many people have intervened and interfered too much, making the work very difficult and difficult to carry out.
Moreover, the investigation work is only one aspect, with so many people involved, he is really worried that there is really something wrong with it. The calmer he is now, the bigger things will get.
As for the president, it was not surprising that he got involved. He had some guesses about the purpose of the other party's visit, but Suzuki's reporting behavior was very strange. How could he take someone away like that?
"...Sigh..." Takeuchi sighed, shook his head, and said, "Let's talk about the situation of those suspicious persons first! How much impact will it have on the investigation and surveillance?"
"After following a little while, I found that the origins of these people are extremely complicated. They have backgrounds such as big speculators, big speculation capital, underground banks, gangs, big European and American banks, European and American parties in the concessions, senior officials of the National Government, local warlords, etc.
There are also people from some government departments of the Nationalist Government. These people have sent people here one after another to keep an eye on Lan Weimai overtly or covertly. They may be worried about some chaos here, or they may have some plot or plan, or know something about it!"
Listening to the long list listed by Suzuki, Takeuchi felt his head hurt. Of course, he also knew that most of these people should just stare here and understand the situation in time.
After all, the volume of silver-related transactions in Lan Wei Ai's place is huge, and it has an equally huge impact on the silver price trend in Shanghai. Anyone who wants to speculate and get a piece of the pie will almost never let go of the situation there.
Because Lan Weimai has gathered a large number of speculators and speculators to speculate in silver, most of them have used leverage to increase their leverage, and many of them have also raised the cost of holding positions to a very high price by re-pricing and exchanging contracts.
As a result, when the silver price drops, these people can't wait to sell the contract, not to mention making a profit. Many people just hope that it will not fall below the contract price and lose money.
But who will take over easily at this time? Or take over the loan contract. This is not cash. Once the loan interest falls below, you will need to lose money.
Moreover, the trading volume is really terrifying, and it is useless to accept a small amount of orders. As a result, the contract holders have lower quotations one by one, and a stampede has occurred. Now it has fallen the most among Shanghai Silver-related transactions.
At the same time, the price of silver in Shanghai dropped even more sharply than that of the Bank of America. The amount of the drop was almost the same. You must know that the price of the Bank of America can be higher, that is, the base is larger. How is it possible that the price of silver in Shanghai fell in such a way that the drop was much larger than that of the Bank of America?
Not attracting attention from all parties?
"Most of them are easy to distinguish, but the interference is not small, and based on the other party's ability, we cannot guarantee whether they will disguise themselves as these people to avoid investigation.
In addition, intelligence forces from all sides, including ours, have also set their sights on Lan Weimai. They cause greater interference and are more difficult to distinguish!"
"Where's the president? What's the purpose of arresting those people?"
Takeuchi did not continue the previous topic, mainly because it was difficult to continue. He couldn't let all parties wear armbands to identify themselves, right?
"I don't know yet." Suzuki shook his head and explained: "What has been found so far is that they took away those people for questioning. More information has not yet been found out."
What else could he say? He could only let Suzuki continue the investigation and try to figure out the other party's purpose. If that didn't work, he would step forward to see if he could learn from the other party.
Anyway, we have cooperated before, although it was not pleasant or successful, and now the other party is not willing to work with them, but at least they have not fallen out with each other. If they don't ask for it directly, if some situations are exchanged, there should still be a chance.
