The boat brought back the next group of people, which was the team of Wang Mingkun and Xu Zhiyu. The old procedure was to distribute luggage and arrange dormitories. The special operations team Lin Mo arranged a room for five people, and the three teams lived together, so they dispatched
Basically, half the whole team comes, and after dispatching, the crowding situation can be reduced.
However, the special operations team did not accept this arrangement. Instead, six people lived in the same room, 6636! It just so happened that half the team was also organized with six people, which was more convenient.
I reminded Zheng Junshan, Wang Mingkun and others to organize people to read the packaged materials later and become familiar with the situation in Shanghai. They can record and discuss with each other, but do not damage the materials.
After the arrangements were made, Lin Mo went to the financial office on the roof to receive a sum of funds, took the people from the kitchen and medical office on board the ship, and headed straight for Zhenjiang on the other side of the river.
After crossing the Yangtze River, we stopped at the edge of the commercial port dock area. After a while, people appeared one after another. There were civilian travelers in a hurry, young masters and young masters with their servants holding their heads high and shouting, and there were also groups of three to five making noisy noises.
, the arrogant person in the world...
These are all dressed up and disguised by the members of the three teams. It’s not about how rigorous the action is, it’s about fighting and training! Going out is also a rare opportunity for practical training.
After everyone boarded the ship, Lin Mo asked some of them to change their clothes, and together with the other selected people, he agreed with the captain on the time and place for the reception, and then got off the ship and continued working here.
He gave Sha Ruhai and Du Mingsheng a sum of money each, and asked them to lead people to follow the kitchen and medical office staff respectively to buy the missing things. The funds for this operation were sufficient, and he did not give less, which was enough for them to make.
"You must have stayed in Zhenjiang for a while, right? How about it? Did you get some general information?"
After leaving the pier and leaving, Lin Mo asked the people around him. Of course, he had not assigned these tasks, but these were things that he had to understand and master first wherever he went. There was no problem with Lin Mo asking about them.
"I have found out some information, but I don't know if it is useful?" Shi Baocun spoke first. Previously, he and his brothers pretended to be Jianghu people and set up a gantry formation with others at the dock, and got a lot of information.
"Do you know where I can process iron tools? It's not very complicated, but it requires a bit of craftsmanship. Don't find a factory, but a shop or workshop that allows people to process iron tools."
Shi Baocun thought for a moment and said: "Go south through the commercial port to the urban area, and then go south to the edge of the urban area not far from the residential area. There are many small factories and workshops.
I heard them brag that after the British Concession was seized a few years ago, the iron shop owners had a booming business and dared to look down on them. Even the gang bosses who used to sell coal to these eighty-eighty gangsters have now become rich, and there is a row of gangsters everywhere when they go out.
The car, how grand and majestic it is.
What I heard later was that the boss’s territory is that area, and there must be many workshops, iron shops, etc. there, but I don’t know if any of them can meet the needs.”
Lin Mo nodded and said: "Then where are the products more miscellaneous? It's not the kind of place where all foreign goods or industrial products are, but the kind of place where there is a mixture of foreign and Chinese goods, and there are more traditional domestic goods and handmade goods."
"...Hmm..." Shi Baocun pondered for a long time this time and replied: "This side of the business district is a trading port, and it used to be a concession. There are mostly foreign goods and industrial products. The urban commerce is also prosperous, but it is mainly for food, clothing, housing and transportation.
These are the main items, and what the shops sell are just ordinary things.
It is estimated that we have to cross the river to the southwest and then go to the old county town. The wharf on the commercial port side mainly berths steamships and motor boats. Most of the goods are bulk and ordinary. There will be a large number of large and small sailboats and tankers docked on the old county town side. It should be
It has a wide variety of goods, and there will certainly be no shortage of domestic goods.”
One asked and the other answered, the two of them got up chatting, but He Changwen was so shy that he hid behind Lin Mo. This guy had previously pretended to be a rich young man, and was busy acting like a young master. All these things were forgotten.
Now that the water has receded, I realize that I am naked.
Shi Baocun could basically answer what Lin Mo wanted to know. After nodding with satisfaction, he wanted to find He Changwen, but turned his head a few times before looking at He Changwen who was hiding behind him.
"Be more careful next time..." One look at Lin Mo and he guessed what was going on, but since he was an adult, he didn't scold him, he just reminded him.
"...I was wrong..." He Changwen quickly admitted his mistake, lowering his head, feeling a little ashamed. After things happened like this, he really felt so embarrassed that it was hard to see others.
Still young and not stable enough, Lin Mo thought to himself, but thinking about himself, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. If they were born in the future, they might have not left school, but now they are wandering between life and death...
I thought for a moment and then immediately took it back. I had no choice in which era I was born in. I just had to do my own thing. In that era, even younger than them, there were still people who walked between life and death to support others.
Nothing to complain about.
Lin Mo took out a small bag of funds and handed it to He Changwen, saying: "You should have heard what we just talked about. Take people to the gas company and buy a batch of filled gas. Remember to buy more for the coal stove.
, all sizes and shapes are different in purchase.
Send it to the agreed place, and then buy some nets, fishing hooks, ground cages and other fishing gear nearby. The nets are mainly small, and others are of different sizes and specifications, but don’t buy too much.
…”
He Changwen responded and took the money and was about to leave, but Lin Mo looked at the time and stopped him. He was busy doing some work here and there. It was already lunch time. Lin Mo found a neater shop in front of his house and took him with him.
Everyone sat around two small tables outside the door.
The shopkeeper came out to greet him, served tea and poured water. After ordering, he did not leave anyone aside, but always paid attention to greeting him. Lin Mo made it clear that there was no need to greet him, so he entered the store and got busy.
"What kind of store is that? What kind of business does it run?" Lin Mo asked everyone, pointing to a store not far across the street that took advantage of the sunny weather to take out a large amount of clothes and set up a rack at the door to sell them.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Lin Mo stopped Shi Baocun and He Changwen who wanted to speak, gave the test opportunity to others, and asked the brothers at the next table to put the tables together to facilitate discussion and communication.
.
"Captain Lin, it looks like a store selling ready-made clothes! There's nothing special about it." Everyone looked at it for a while, and Zhu Sanbao was the first to speak tentatively.
Lin Mo nodded, but smiled and didn't say much. Zhu Sanbao's heart was also filled with doubts, and he hurriedly continued to look around.
"Looking at the clothes, some are old and some are too many. Could it be that the store is not doing well and the warehouse is clearing out inventory?"
After taking a sneak peek, Lin Mo still had the same expression and the same movements. Zhu Sanbao felt even more unsure, and then he looked at it more carefully.
"The clothes don't look like second-hand goods, and the styles are too complicated. It looks more like a store selling used clothes."
At this time, Zhang Guangjia spoke. He was good at inquiring and asking for information. He was very familiar with clothing, and he also had a good eye for clothing, shoes, hats and accessories. These were obviously not old goods stored in the warehouse.
"If it's old clothes, there's a good chance it has something to do with the pawn shop next to it. The stalls are all at the pawn shop door. It doesn't matter. The pawn shop can't let the other party do this.
I guess the pawn shop and the clothing store are the same store. The pawn shop mainly deals in clothing pawns, and the clothing store sells dead or expired clothes. I used to think that the two parties were close to each other or had the same boss behind them, but now it seems that they are the same store, just one.
It's just a different name for entering and exiting."
Li Dingqiao then spoke. He was usually responsible for guarding, standing guard, and patrolling. He was familiar with the situation on the street. He even studied it in depth recently. He had long noticed some of the tricks, but he didn't look at it.
He didn't say anything until he came up with some supporting evidence.
"Normal clothing store cannot afford to operate a store with this style of atmosphere. Normally, it is unlikely that this kind of store will operate in this area. This is a dirty store for those petty thieves to clean up their dirty clothes. This may
It’s just one of the links, there should be shops selling other types of dirt around it.”
Bingyouzi Du Qihong opened his mouth and said it was Wang Zha in an understatement. He said the key to the problem at once, and the subsequent scene also confirmed what he said. A guy who was idle and whistling, carrying a bag of clothes that looked like a package, swaggered in.
Shop.
"Where are the others? Is this all you can see?" His belly button felt a little dazed at first, but unfortunately Lin Mo returned to his original shape with just one sentence.
Everyone observed for a while and said a lot, but unfortunately they only touched on the side and basically didn’t get to the point.
"That's it? Can't you really see the rest?" Lin Mo confirmed again. After seeing these people shaking their heads, he motioned to He Changwen who wanted to speak.
“This store is located not far from the pier, and it opens in a big way, which shows that it should be targeted at outsiders, that is, passengers who dock in Zhenjiang. Passengers are not too worried about locals coming to visit.
The clothes on the stalls are of both high and low quality fabrics and styles, and most of them are in good condition. They should be the ones who specialize in selling the clothes in the suitcases for thieves who steal luggage at the dock or on the ship. These are the only thieves who steal the entire luggage.
Only then will there be a pile of clothes that need to be sold, and the store will have a stable supply of goods.
These can be seen from the large number of foreign styles and special clothing on the stalls. For most people who go out, the largest quantity in their luggage is clothing. One or two pieces may not be worth much, but a box is a pile.
For most thieves, this is a small sum of money. What if there are ten or eight boxes? That is a lot of money.
And what about this store? It pawns clothes in the name of a pawn shop, and the clothes don’t have name identification. You can’t prove that they are not the other person’s when they bring it. Some of them use excuses to evade it, and most of the passengers who really have time and energy to look for their luggage here are
He doesn't care about clothes and will definitely look for important items.
The worst thing is to return it if you find it. This kind of situation will probably not happen once in a hundred transactions. It may even be in the redemption period. Let Mao redeem it. That's why this store is so generous and generous.
Yes, they may also want to make the victim unable to find a suitable reason to accuse, and all kinds of excuses can silence the victim."
