Chapter seven hundred and twentieth seventh spy shadow four
Yoshiko Kawashima came to see Chen Mingxiang late at night because she had no choice but to do so. He would not be able to stay in Jincheng for long and might return to Shanghai tomorrow. If she could not seize this opportunity, she did not know when they would meet again next time.
.
"Miss Kawashima, please sit down. This is a top-quality cigar from British and American companies. If you are interested, you can try one. It is almost impossible to see it on the market now." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
There were cigar boxes, cigar cutters and matches on the coffee table. He pushed them to Yoshiko Kawashima who was sitting opposite, feeling a little curious.
Strictly speaking, she is just a spy who was abandoned by the Japanese military. She is in the same situation as Sunset. Not only does she have no qualifications, she also has no bargaining chips to make a deal with herself. But since she appears here, she must have something in her hands.
The news that interests me, this is a veteran spy.
“After the outbreak of the Pacific War, all the British and American merchants in the concession were imprisoned by the Japanese army, and the ocean trade channels were completely cut off. British and American luxury goods became increasingly scarce, and French merchants could not import cigars from Cuba.
"
"Because France, Germany and Japan are now allies, the U.S. government will not allow Cuba to do business with France. I haven't smoked such a good cigar in a long time," Kawashima Yoshiko said with a smile.
She skillfully cut off the end of the cigar, lit the cigar with a match, took a puff, and slowly exhaled the smoke. She seemed to be a cigar lover.
"Miss Kawashima really deserves her reputation. This is indeed Monte's top cigar from Cuba. According to the Chinese era, it appeared in the 24th year of the Republic of China. It is also the most important imported cigar brand in the United Kingdom and the United States. I heard it mentioned by British and American businessmen in the concession.
This history." Chen Mingxiang said.
He was not in a hurry at all, and drank tea and chatted leisurely, spending plenty of time with Yoshiko Kawashima. In such an occasion, whoever spoke first would lose his momentum and mentality.
"Does Mr. Chen know Kojima Nariko?" Kawashima Yoshiko was completely at a disadvantage and had no choice but to speak first.
The man opposite her looks younger than her. She is thirty-six years old this year and the other man is just thirty years old. However, his calm mentality and sophisticated behavior are not inferior to hers.
I had only met him once, and even a fool knew there was something wrong when he came to visit him rashly in the middle of the night, but he just kept chatting about cigars calmly, making it clear that he wanted her to show his trump card.
"I know that the Japanese female spy who is as famous as you in North China seems to be operating in the Henan and Jiangsu Provinces, and is said to have joined the Mei Agency in Central China." Of course Chen Mingxiang wanted to show off his strength.
"With such a great reputation, it is said that Mr. Chen has great hands and eyes in Central China and has connections everywhere. He is truly well-deserved. He even knows such confidential things. This time she left North China to go to Central China. She was indeed invited by the Mei Agency.
, I want to use Kojima Nariko’s information in exchange for Mr. Chen’s support for me.” Kawashima Yoshiko said.
"Since you said that, Kojima Nariko must have done something related to me. Is she secretly investigating me?" Chen Mingxiang asked.
"Mr. Chen is very smart and experienced. He knows what I mean as soon as he hears it. I admire him! I don't know the information in this area. Are you interested?" Kawashima Yoshiko said.
"Miss Kawashima, you want to lend me my hand to fight against your mortal enemy, right? I heard that the relationship between you two is very bad and the conflict is irreconcilable. Tell me, what reward do you need?" Chen Mingxiang said lightly.
, I don’t feel surprised at all.
If you walk too much at night, you will eventually encounter ghosts. It is abnormal to hang out in an intelligence agency without being suspected by your colleagues. No matter how perfect your identity is, you will still encounter this kind of situation.
Some outstanding agents with extremely high talents are able to lock in targets based on their intuition generated by professional experience, even if there is no evidence, and the accuracy is quite high.
But it sounds like Nariko Kojima, like Minami Yunko before, was investigating herself in private, and it was not the intention of the Mei Agency.
"One of Kojima Nariko's subordinates is one of mine. When I was living in North China, she was just a small role that was not taken seriously. She had no idea how huge the power I controlled was. When she started to be under the influence of the military
When it's time to reuse her, I've already placed people next to her."
"It's easy to hide from open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows. This is also the most taboo thing when you come out to hang out. In the final analysis, you are just a Chinese and will not be 100% trusted by the Japanese. They do not have absolute trust in the Japanese. Nariko Kojima
If you continue to create repercussions, your situation will be threatened."
"My current situation is very bad, and I believe you also know it. Therefore, I want to use Kojima Nariko to exchange for funds to maintain daily expenses, but I can provide information about her. I know that she cannot do anything in Central China.
I'm fighting with you." Kawashima Yoshiko said with a smile.
"I like you a little now. You speak straightforwardly, which I prefer. You can go to the Peiping branch or Jincheng office every month to receive a monthly fund of 30,000 yuan in bank coupons. I am doing it for you.
Help provided.”
"This money can not only maintain your luxurious life in the Pingjin area, but also allow you to start over and return to the upper class through social skills."
"I plan to return to the Shanghai stock market the day after tomorrow. Before I leave, I want to see written materials about Nariko Kojima, including the situation of her people. God knows and you know and I know. You know what I need. Keep the inside information confidential.
Write it all to me, the value of this information is two thousand dollars."
"Miss Kawashima, my money did not come from strong winds. I hope that the information you provide can reflect the value of the money. If I have important information in the future, I will pay extra, still in US dollars. You must cherish this opportunity.
.”
"Whether it's the North China Front's Secret Service or the Military Police, my words still have some weight, including those in Central China and outside China. As long as you show your sincerity in cooperation and your own value, Nariko Kojima will have nothing to do with you in the future," Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
The two reached a cooperation, Kawashima Yoshiko contributed to gathering intelligence, and Chen Mingxiang paid for the activities. It was a win-win situation.
Thirty thousand yuan of banknotes may not sound like a lot, but this is the annual income of one hundred skilled workers with the highest salary. When converted into China Reserve Certificates, it is 540,000 yuan, and its value is even more astonishing.
Chen Mingxiang deliberately used his best money offensive to play Kawashima Yoshiko's card well. She lost her financial source, but she was not short of money. She knew the Japanese intelligence system in North China and outside the customs very well, but she was blind to it.
Discredit, this transaction is tantamount to complementary advantages.
It doesn't make much sense for a veteran spy like this to be under his command. As long as this cooperative relationship is maintained for a long time and the other party has strong economic dependence, it is tantamount to indirectly controlling her. The nominal affiliation,
