Chapter 262 He is the Deep Sea
Chapter 262 He is the Deep Sea
The next day.
Lu Qiaoshan was absent-minded throughout the day.
He got excited when he thought about Li Ya being chased all over the street by students.
Four p.m.
Lu Qiaoshan glanced at his watch.
It's time to get off work soon.
If we don’t get the information today, there won’t be a chance for it to make the headlines in tomorrow’s morning edition.
"Come to my office."
He picked up the phone and dialed a number.
After a while, Sheng Xiang walked in: "Director Lu, you are looking for me."
"The intelligence hasn't been obtained yet, you have to hurry up." Lu Qiaoshan said.
“No way to rush.
“He went to Jingling on the 94th Army’s plane.
"It will be evening soon."
Sheng Xiang said.
"Okay, I get it.
"Notify me as soon as there is news."
Lu Qiaoshan gave the order, placing his hands on his hips and holding his forehead.
"rest assured."
Sheng Xiang took the order and walked out.
After walking a few steps, he turned back with a mysterious look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Lu Qiaoshan asked.
"Brother Shan, there has been a big bombshell in the black market these days." Sheng Xiang said.
"What big thunder?" Lu Qiaoshan asked.
"Didn't the Yancheng traitor Han Jie'en dig up materials in Ansai that the Red Ticket Headquarters had not completely destroyed?
“It is said that there are a lot of intelligence information inside.
"The hottest part right now is the deep sea."
Shengxiang Road.
"deep sea?
"After Mount Emei, this is Hongpiao's most deeply hidden spy in Jinhai.
“The Second Department and the headquarters have been trying to dig him out.
“Oh, I didn’t expect that the fox’s tail would be exposed.
"Who released the news?"
Lu Qiaoshan asked.
“Old Wolf.
“A trader on the black market.
"But it would be difficult to find the source. High-level intelligence like this usually has to be passed through several hands, so it's hard to get to the bottom of it," said Sheng Xiang.
"Is the information reliable?" Lu Qiaoshan asked.
"Hard to say.
“This kind of information is like gambling on stones, those who are willing can buy it, but now people have started to compete for the price.
"The buyers on the red ticket side are bidding very fiercely."
Sheng Xiang said.
"Red ticket bidding?" Lu Qiaoshan asked with a frown.
"Yes.
“If they buy the intelligence, won’t the evidence be covered up?
"This is the same as Dai Li's surprise attack on Suqian. A few days ago, someone raised the price, but Hongpiao bought the information back. Without accurate information, Dai Zhiqi didn't believe it. So, they were completely wiped out.
"It's worth the money."
Shengxiang Road.
"Go find this old wolf and find out who bought the information.
"Find a way to get it."
Land bridge mountain road.
"Okay, I'll go to the Securities Association when I'm free in the evening." Sheng Xiang said.
"Don't do it at night. You don't have anything to do anyway. Let's do it now." Lu Qiaoshan ordered.
“That’s right, the guy next door is also very close to some black market traders.
“I heard that early in the morning, cars were blocked at the entrance of the Party Communications Bureau.
"If we don't act quickly, someone might get there first."
I have to say that although Sheng Xiang has no great abilities, he is well-informed about gossip.
"Going to block the party's access to the police station?" Lu Qiaoshan didn't understand.
"Xie Ruolin from the Dangtong Bureau is the most famous underground trader in Jinhai. Li Ya must have set his sights on the goods in his hands.
“That guy is old and fat now.
"He lives in a mansion, drives a Studebaker, his suits cost hundreds of dollars, and he has several college students as mistresses. He is a winner in life.
"Brother Shan, we have to set this up quickly."
Sheng Xiang said with a jealous look on his face.
"Don't worry, it's a matter of time. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Take your time." Lu Qiaoshan said.
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Sheng Xiang's eyes.
Take your time.
If it's any later, the war will be over and no one will buy intelligence.
"Okay, Brother Shan, I'll go then."
Sheng Xiang walked out.
"deep sea?
“It’s kind of interesting, well, if there’s work, we have to grab it.
"Get your own intelligence and make sure Li Ya has no intelligence to use. Then we'll see how he can still act so arrogantly."
Lu Qiaoshan began to ponder.
……
Action Team Office.
Gao Yuan walked in quickly.
"How is it? Have you contacted Mr. Xie?" Li Ya asked.
"without.
"I found out that this guy took the 94th Army Staff Headquarters' plane to Jingling this morning." Gao Yuan said.
“Jingling?
"Why would a small clerk like him go to Jingling?" Li Ya asked with a frown.
“The Ministry of Defence has regular meetings.
“There are people in the upper echelons who specialize in reselling intelligence. Every time a regular meeting is held, intelligence dealers from all over the country will gather in Jingling to bid for intelligence.
"Of course, this is what I heard from the black market."
Gao Yuan said.
"absurd.
“No wonder Hongpiao knows our military plans so well. The interests of the party and the country are being destroyed by these national parasites.” Li Ya was so angry that he felt itchy.
“Send someone to keep an eye on his family and his connections with the Party.
"Notify me immediately once you return."
he ordered.
“Yes, Captain.
"By the way, there is news about the deep sea in the black market." Gao Yuan said again.
"deep sea!
“This is Hongpiao’s hidden eye in Jinhai, and he must be dug out.
"Can I buy it?"
Li Ya asked.
“As long as you have money, there is no intelligence that cannot be bought.
“But for something as top secret as this, it’s probably going to be very expensive, and if it turns out to be false information, those profiteers won’t be responsible.
"According to rumors, the people with red tickets are about to start making moves again."
Gao Yuan replied.
"What are they robbing?" Li Ya asked.
"Block the news and ensure the safety of the deep sea." Gao Yuan said.
“No, we must get this information.
"Wait a minute. I'll go ask the stationmaster for funding."
Arrived at the stationmaster's office.
Yu Zecheng is talking to the stationmaster.
"Stationmaster." Li Ya walked in and ignored the deputy stationmaster Yu Zecheng standing beside him.
"Ahem." Wu Jingzhong frowned.
"Deputy Station Master." Li Ya said reluctantly.
"Captain Li." Yu Zecheng nodded with a smile.
"Stationmaster, I would like to apply for some intelligence funds from the station..." Li Ya stopped talking halfway, glanced at Yu Zecheng and didn't continue.
“Intelligence funding?
"That's great. Finance is now under management. Just speak up if you have anything to say."
Wu Jingzhong said uprightly.
“Information about the deep sea has appeared on the black market.
“Now people from CC, the Three Youth League, and the Inspection Office are all scrambling to dig out the true identity of this Deep Sea.
“The red ticket parties are also actively bidding and want to block the news.
“Headquarters and we have been tracking the deep sea.
"Now the opportunity is right in front of me. I want to apply for intelligence funds from the station to buy back this information."
Li Ya said.
"What a coincidence, Qiaoshan meant the same thing." Wu Jingzhong said.
“Stationmaster, intelligence doesn’t wait for anyone.
“The more hands it changes hands, the less valuable it becomes.
“Once we act too late, if it falls into the hands of Hongpiao, it will be difficult to catch Shenhai.”
When Li Ya heard that Lu Qiaoshan was also paying attention to this matter, he hurriedly spoke up.
"Zecheng, what do you think?" Wu Jingzhong asked.
"deep sea.
"This is our most stubborn opponent after Emei Peak. He has been active in the intelligence front for a long time, but no one has figured out his identity so far.
"Director Mao once set up a blacklist of wanted spies, and Shen Hai was at the top of the list.
"It would be best if we could dig it out."
The rest will become the Tao.
"Yes.
“Several leaks of information on the transfer of materials from Jinhai may be related to this deep sea.
"If we don't get rid of this man, there will never be peace in Jinhai.
"Li Ya, don't you often go to the black market? How much money do you think you can get?"
Wu Jingzhong pointed at Li Ya and asked.
“Ten thousand dollars should be about right.
"But I would like to apply for $100,000 in intelligence funds to collect intelligence clues on the black market."
Li Ya said happily.
One hundred thousand dollars?
Wu Jingzhong's smile froze, and he turned to look at Yu Zecheng:
"Zhecheng, what are we having for lunch today?"
"what?"
Yu Zecheng didn't catch it for a moment.
"I heard from Director Fang last time that there is a restaurant in Xiqing that serves good dry-pot beef. How about we go and try it at noon today?" Wu Jingzhong said with a slightly raised eyebrow.
"OK.
"It just so happens that I haven't eaten out for a while, so I'm so grateful to the stationmaster.
"Then I'll go get the car ready?"
Yu Zecheng understood and said quickly.
"No need to prepare, just go." Wu Jingzhong stood up and said.
"Webmaster..." said Li Ya.
"Captain Li, are you going with us?" Wu Jingzhong asked with a smile.
"I... I have something else to do so I won't go. Stationmaster, the matter of intelligence fund allocation..." Li Ya asked persistently.
“No matter how big the problem is, it can’t affect your meal.
“Isn’t this your motto?
"What's the matter? Come back after dinner and talk."
What a clueless bastard... Wu Jingzhong smiled, patted him on the shoulder and walked out.
……
Got in the car.
Wu Jingzhong, who was sitting in the back row, said, "Zhecheng, did you see that? What does it mean that people are greedy and want more than an elephant?
"Using public money for personal gain.
"One asked for 50,000 US dollars, and the other asked for 100,000 US dollars. It's unbelievable that they could even say that.
"Even if I sold Jinhai Station, it wouldn't be enough for them to buy intelligence."
"Captain Li is eager to make a contribution, or maybe he has seen a lot of things and doesn't care about money." Yu Zecheng laughed while driving. "If you want intelligence, go get it yourself.
“If you spend money to buy it, who knows whether the information is true or false.
"That's the deep sea. How could it be so easily exposed? Is it that simple?"
Wu Jingzhong glanced at Yu Zecheng and sneered.
"Yes.
“But if I exchange one hundred thousand U.S. dollars for a deep sea, this deal doesn’t seem to be a bad deal.” Yu Zecheng said.
“It’s a loss anyway.
"Do you really think that the Party-State has fallen to this day just because of a few red spies?
“A blacksmith must be strong himself.
"If the people are united and supportive, even if there are one deep sea, a hundred or a thousand deep seas, let alone one, will be useless.
“Look at the government now, it’s rotten from top to bottom.
"The Ministry of National Defense held a meeting in the morning, and someone raised the price in the afternoon. Even if you were Sun Wu or Bai Qi, you wouldn't be able to win this war.
“I also want to use $100,000 to get intelligence.
"With this money, wouldn't it be good to buy some food and drink?"
Wu Jingzhong sighed with a smile.
"Teacher, what happened to you today?
"It's as if he has seen through the world." Yu Zecheng said, looking at him through the rearview mirror.
"Why.
“To be honest, I really don’t want to continue this battle.
“We have weapons and American aid.
“The Reds have the support of the people and they have talented people, especially military talent.
"They are all born of the same mother, but one is surnamed Hong and the other is surnamed Qing. If their fists collide, both will feel pain.
"It's such a waste of time, what a pity."
Wu Jingzhong was inspired by this.
"Yes.
"If we can unify the country, with the great strength and resilience of the Chinese nation, why should we have to care about the faces of the Americans?" Yu Zecheng also sighed.
"Teacher, are we going to miss this deep sea in vain?" he asked again.
"Let him be.
"No matter who he is, no matter where he hides, just go there secretly.
"When Boss Dai died, to be honest, I was half heartbroken. I suffered from insomnia for at least half a year. I couldn't even sleep.
“I can’t figure it out. I can’t understand it.
"It wasn't until later, when Ruirui became pregnant with Zhiyou's child and knew she was going to be a grandfather, that I realized it.
“No matter how high you climb or how great your abilities are in this life, what does it matter?
“No, it’s just a mortal body.
"Take things easy, forgive others when you can, take care of yourself within your ability, and just eat and drink well."
Wu Jingzhong narrowed his eyes, looked at Yu Zecheng in the mirror and smiled.
“The teacher is insightful.
"In my opinion, if we really want to go to the beach in Tianjin, Zhiyou and I will go to Hong Kong Island or abroad with you, plant flowers and plants with you, drink tea, and live a good life."
Yu Zecheng understood something and felt quite grateful.
From the moment Ma Kui was labeled as the "Emei Peak" and Liu Xiong was beaten to death, some things had already become tacitly understood.
he knows.
The webmaster knows it too.
That's good.
"Zhiyou can do it, but you can't. He is a businessman, and you are... a talent!" Wu Jingzhong pointed at him.
Yu Zecheng swallowed hard and didn't dare to respond.
……
Securities Club.
Since the military mediation ended, this place has become an intelligence trading center.
The skinny old wolf, holding a hookah in his mouth, was moving among the crowd.
“Lord Wolf.
"Old Wolf, who did you sell the goods to?
"Anything good today?
"Is there any real battle report from Siping?"
……
From time to time someone greeted him.
Old Wolf ignored him and walked straight through the patio to the trading tea room nearby.
Shangbo was drinking tea.
When he saw him, he quickly stood up and said, "Brother, you are finally here.
“Name a price.
"I want the intel on the deep sea."
"How much do you want to offer?" asked the old wolf.
"I'll offer two gold bars." Shang Bo said.
"Hehe, two gold bars, what do you want?" The old wolf didn't want to pay attention to him and turned to leave.
"Old Wolf, we are old friends.
"Well, you make a number."
Shangbo quickly called out to him.
"Ten, no bargaining." said Old Wolf.
Shang Bo hesitated.
Ten gold bars are indeed not a small amount.
But this kind of information can definitely be leaked.
Not to mention that the red ticket wants to protect the deep sea and is willing to pay a high price.
Captain Li from the Bureau of Secrets has always been active in catching criminals. If he can dig out the deep sea, he will definitely be willing to pay.
"Okay, ten is ten.
“But is this information reliable?
"Fresh goods, or dead goods?"
Shangbo asked.
Fresh goods are freshly baked, can be tested, and have a provenance.
This dead stuff has no origin.
Whether it is true or false, you are responsible for your own profits and losses.
"of course it's true.
"After Han Jie'en dug out the treasure, another group of people from the Xi'an Station of the Bureau of Secrets went there and also dug up a lot of things.
"One of the batches has been verified to be a batch of telegrams left behind when the Line 1 headquarters retreated.
“The wharf and the end of the wharf should be clear.
“Many of them may have been ordered by Lord Ke himself.
“Among them is this deep sea one.
"You tell me whether it is true or not."
The old wolf was very experienced and spoke in a serious manner.
He didn't know whether it was true or not.
Anyway, that's what his boss told him, so he just brags about it.
"Row.
"I want it." Shang Bo gritted his teeth and took out ten gold bars from his briefcase.
“You’re lucky too.
"If Old Xie hadn't gone to Jingling, this guy wouldn't have been your turn, he would have taken him in long ago."
Lao Lang grabbed it and threw it into his bag, then took out a few telegrams and handed them to Shang Bo.
"Look at this paper. Is it used in the border areas?" he asked while smoking a pipe.
“This thing is not difficult to fake.
“The key is to...
"The wharf and the pier seem to be the way telegraphs were sent there in the past.
"This……"
The more I look at him, the more frightened I become. This deep sea is really active. He has participated in several major events recently.
"Secretly sabotage the Chairman's plan to transport military rations to the 12th War Zone.
"The incident of destroying Hu Zongnan's medicines.
"..."
Shang Bo frowned, already figuring out the trick.
"Old Wolf, drink slowly. I'm leaving now."
He quickly left the securities club, got in the car and rushed home.
He just left.
Sheng Xiang came in and found Lao Lang in the tea room.
"Lord Wolf, have you sold the information about the deep sea?
"I brought the money."
Sheng Xiang took out three gold bars from his bag and said with a smile.
“It’s too late.
"Someone bought it." said Old Wolf.
“Bought it.
"How much did you buy it for?" Sheng Xiang asked.
"Ten gold bars." said Old Wolf.
“Who did you sell it to?
"Brother, please give me a tip." Sheng Xiang said.
The old wolf held up a finger.
Sheng Xiang put down the hundred dollars with a painful feeling.
"Shangbo." Old Wolf said.
Anyway, this matter cannot be concealed. Any money I can make is good money. I don’t know if I can come across such a good thing next time.
"Thanks."
Sheng Xiang turned and left.
……
Shangbo returned home.
He quickly sat down and took a pen to organize the contents of the intelligence.
Soon, he excitedly picked up the phone and dialed a number:
"Please help me check, who was the one who escorted Hu Zongnan's medicines to Tianjin and Haikou last time?
"correct.
"There is also the matter of Fu Zuoyi's army's food being robbed, and the true situation on Sun Lianzhong's side.
“Who is the escort and who is the hostage.
"right.
"Hurry up, thanks."
After hanging up the phone, Shangbo paced on the spot.
As long as we find out who was responsible for these two things, Shen Hai's identity will be revealed.
This is Hongpiao's top spy lurking in Jinhai.
Once it is deciphered, it will be worth a lot of money.
After waiting for about half an hour, the phone rang.
Shangbo quickly answered: “It’s me.
Listening to the message over there, his eyes lit up:
"are you sure?
“Okay, thank you very much.
"I'll treat you to a meal when I get to Jingling someday.
"Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Shangbo was ecstatic.
Everything fell into place.
Before Fu Zuoyi's troops attacked Zhangjiakou last year, the Chairman secretly sent Hong Zhiyou to transport a large amount of military rations to Zhangyuan. However, he was kidnapped by Li Ya and his men from the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics in Baoding and detained in Sun Lianzhong's defense zone.
It was only after the Chairman sent Zhang Qun to retrieve the food and fodder.
The drug incident happened not long ago, and the escort was also Li Ya.
It is said that he was hijacked by bandits.
Hu Zongnan was extremely angry and ordered the stationmaster Hou from Xi'an to come to Tianjin to arrest the person.
Thanks to Jianfeng's guarantor, Li Ya was able to escape danger.
Destroy food supplies.
Intentional loss of medicine.
Each of them is a serious crime punishable by death.
The intention of each faction is very clear, which is to undermine the overall plans of the Party and the country.
Doesn’t this completely match the content of the telegram?
Shangbo read it over and over again and confirmed his guess.
Li Ya is... Deep Sea!
