Zhu Jiansheng's words resonated with the businessmen and landowners present, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Zhu Jiansheng took the opportunity and said: "Among all the brothers present, when it comes to family property and good land for grain storage, Brother Wu should be the leader.

Moreover, Brother Wu has a very wide network of contacts, so if we leave this matter to Brother Wu, it will be absolutely foolproof."

Wu Qingzhong quickly waved his hand and said: "Brother Jiansheng, thank you for your praise. How can Wu be so virtuous? Moreover, this matter involves dealing with the Northeastern New Army. The danger is too great. If you are not careful, your family will be destroyed, and you will lose both your life and wealth. Please help me."

Please invite some more talented people."

The fat landowner who spoke earlier saw this and said anxiously: "Brother Wu, don't say that. Brother Jiansheng was right just now. You have a wide network of contacts. Who in this North Manchu Chamber of Commerce would dare not to sell you Wu?"

Brother, three points of thin noodles.

Moreover, Brother Wu is very resourceful and you have to be careful when dealing with the government. You have to do it! I hope Brother Wu will not refuse."

"Yes, Brother Li is right. Please don't refuse, Brother Wu. We will never forget Brother Wu's kindness." Everyone nodded in agreement.

Wu Qingzhong pretended to be thoughtful, but still said with a troubled face: "It is difficult to refuse your kindness, but Wu does not have so much cash on hand to pay for your food...and this matter is not trivial. If you are not careful, you will be liable."

It will be a disaster. Wu Wu's safety is not at stake, but I am afraid that it will cause everyone to lose their crops in vain, which will be a sin."

When Zhu Jiansheng heard this, he immediately said righteously: "Brother Wu, you are serious. It is already extremely risky for you to sell grain on our behalf. How can I let you advance the grain money again? So, as long as Brother Wu, you promise to wait for me."

Risk selling grain. I, Zhu Jiansheng, am willing to hand over all the grain I have to you, and I will pay you when I sell it."

"You guys think so?" When Zhu Jiansheng said this, his eyes swept around everyone present.

After they said this, everyone thought that it was indeed the case, so they all nodded and said: "Brother Jiansheng is right. Brother Wu is willing to take risks for us. It is already a great kindness. How can we let you advance the food payment again? I agree with Jiansheng."

Brother’s opinion!”

"I also agree. Not only that, but if everything goes well, I would also like to give 10% of the profits from selling grain to Brother Wu to express my gratitude." The big landowner surnamed Li expressed his position.

Among the people, those who cultivate grain are second only to Wu Qingzhong and Zhu Jiansheng.

My family also has hundreds of hectares of fertile land, so I have to be a little more generous with my spending.

Seeing that everyone was so kind and reluctant to refuse, Wu Qingzhong reluctantly said: "Thanks to your trust, I would rather obey my orders than to be respectful. This time, even if I risk my life, I will definitely sell the stored grain for you."

."

"Okay, Brother Wu is so benevolent and righteous. Today we are together in Fulou. We will not return until we get drunk!" Zhu Jiansheng took advantage of the situation and said.

"Hey, Brother Jiansheng, you're too polite. The Northeastern Army is currently investigating outside. It's not appropriate for us to be overly exposed and gather together. Let's do this. You are all guests when you come. I'll let my servants prepare the food and drinks in the humble house. We won't go home until we get drunk.

!”

"Okay, I won't go home until I'm drunk. Brother Wu is really happy!"

"You won't come home until you're drunk!"

"I won't go home until I'm drunk!" everyone said one after another.

Outside the Harbin Police Station, two cars stopped one behind the other.

Several bodyguard-like men in black attire got out of the car first and stood around the car like guards.

Jiang Baili and Zang Shiyi, dressed in casual clothes, stepped out of the car one after another.

A middle-aged man in police uniform hurriedly came forward to greet him respectfully: "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Zang, thank you for your hard work along the way."

"Well, Director Wang, long time no see." Zang Shiyi shook hands with him, while Jiang Baili nodded.

"Please come in." The director surnamed Wang quickly and politely said.

After entering the police station, Director Wang took Jiang Baili and Zang Shiyi to a secret room that had been prepared.

After the three of them sat down, someone had already served tea.

Director Wang waved his hand to signal the man carrying the tea to go down, and then said to Jiang Baili, "Gentlemen, please drink tea first."

Jiang Baili picked up the teacup and said, "Director Wang, you're welcome. Please tell me what you know first."

"Okay, according to reports from my subordinates, the major grain hoarders in Harbin City are mainly large landowners and merchants in the past. They are headed by Wu Qingzhong in Acheng District, but the specific amount and location of the grain hoard are not yet known."

"Then check it out. We must find out as soon as possible." Jiang Baili said.

Director Wang looked troubled, and Jiang Baili asked: "What, what's the problem?"

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Zang, you don't know something. This Wu Qingzhong is a well-known leading businessman of the North Manchuria Chamber of Commerce. If we really want to investigate, I'm afraid this time it will involve a wide range of people and involve a lot of people. Basically, the entire

The business community in Harbin is being completely purged, which will affect the interests of many people." Director Wang said with a bitter face.

Zang Shiyi has been in officialdom for a long time, and he understands Director Wang's difficulties and the implication of his words very well, but he did not say much.

Because he knew that this matter was not something he could decide, so he turned his attention to Jiang Baili and waited for him to make a decision.

Jiang Baili immediately said: "No matter who is involved or how wide the involvement is, I will investigate it at all costs. What happened? The commander-in-chief is there. You, Director Wang, can just investigate. If it is found out, then you can

It's a great achievement, I will ask the Commander-in-Chief for your credit."

"Yes, I understand." Director Wang nodded repeatedly.

After giving some more instructions, Jiang Baili facilitated Zang Shiyi's exit from the police station. Director Wang respectfully escorted them to the car, then wiped his sweat and turned back.

The car started to move, and he sat in the car and looked at Director Wang who turned back to the police station.

Jiang Baili seemed to be saying to himself: "It seems that we can't rely entirely on the local police station for investigation. It is inevitable that some of them are inextricably linked to the local business and landlords, so naturally they cannot be wholeheartedly involved in the investigation."

"What does Mr. Jiang mean?" Zang Shiyi looked at him in confusion and asked tentatively.

Jiang Baili withdrew his gaze, paused and said: "I will immediately send a message to the Commander-in-Chief and ask him to borrow some manpower. With their participation, I think the investigation will soon be clear."

Jilin City, Northeast Frontier Army Headquarters.

Zhang Xinghan was reading a book when Guo Zhong walked over lightly, stood up and saluted: "Commander, the chief of staff is calling."

Zhang Xinghan raised his head after hearing this, took the telegram, read it, pondered for a while, and said to Guo Zhong: "Immediately inform Shen Yizhi to deploy manpower to assist the Chief of Staff, and tell him that the matter investigated by the Chief of Staff this time is very important, and we must do our best.

Cooperate."

"Yes!" Guo Zhong responded loudly, turned around and took the order.
