Spy War: I am the Living King of Hell

Chapter 256 The best of both worlds
In August 1938, the Secret Service was officially changed to the "Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Military Commission", and the military unification was officially established.

After the establishment of the Military Reunification Bureau, Dai Chunfeng served as deputy director of the Military Reunification Bureau. The director was concurrently served by the first director of the Principal's Attendant Office. Although he was only the deputy director, Dai Chunfeng held real power, and the Military Reunification Bureau was actually in Dai Chunfeng's hands.

From now on, Dai Chunfeng will no longer be called Virtuoso, but Director, but all this has nothing to do with Yang Xuewu. He is still a lieutenant colonel and has not been promoted due to the establishment of the Military Command Bureau.

However, his position has been promoted. Yang Xuewu used to be the leader of the operations team, but now he has been promoted to the chief of the operations department, but this is of little use. He is still the polished commander.

In September 1938, various fortresses on the Yangtze River fell one after another, and Jiangcheng began to be in danger, but this was also expected by the national army.

Because it was able to delay the Japanese army for several months, it had achieved the strategic purpose of slowing down the Japanese army's actions and exchanging space for time. In October, the national army began to gradually withdraw.

After the fall of Jiangcheng, Shancheng became the temporary capital of the country, and the Military Command Bureau also withdrew to Shancheng.

That day Tan Wenxia called Yang Xuewu and said that there was a telegram from the headquarters and asked Yang Xuewu to go to her place.

In fact, the reason why Tan Wenxia called Yang Xuewu was that, firstly, a telegram came from the headquarters, and secondly, Tan Wenxia wanted Yang Xuewu to help her find a job.

Tan Wenxia and Gong Xue met twice more in the past few days. Tan Wenxia had a deep understanding of the Red Party's financial predicament. She wanted to contribute to the organization, but in Shanghai, she turned a blind eye. When it came to making money, she didn't even look for a job, so she wanted to ask Yang Xuewu to help her find a job.

"Wenxia, ​​how have you been during this time? Are you still used to life?"

"Section Chief, can I ask where to move?"

Tan Wenxia didn't dare ask for more money. If she asked like this, Yang Xuewu might really become suspicious.

In fact, how could Yang Xuewu become suspicious so easily? He was not a god and could really see into people's hearts. The reason why he was suspicious was because Tan Wenxia wanted to work despite her leisurely days.

Hearing Yang Xuewu take up this topic, Tan Wenxia felt happy, and then said: "Yes, I am so idle at home all day, and it is easy to arouse others' suspicion. Section Chief, can you Help me find a job?"

"Boring?" Yang Xuewu said in surprise.

Now Tan Wenxia lives in the French Concession. If Tan Wenxia moves to the French Concession, the Peace Hotel will also be in the French Concession, so it will be more convenient for Yang Xuewu to see him.

"Of course you can. If you want to go, you will have to live in the public concession in the future."

"Okay, I do have a job that suits you, but you need to move."

"Section Chief, I have no requirements for work, as long as I have something to do."

"Section Chief, I'm fine. I'm quite used to it, but I'm a little bored."

"Okay, since you want to work, then I will find a job for you. Where is the telegram from the headquarters?" Yang Xuewu asked.

However, Yang Xuewu can also understand that some people just can't stay idle, just like his grandparents in his previous life. They were still busy all day long in their seventies. It wasn't that they couldn't survive and needed to work, but that they really Can't stay idle.

There were not many places where Yang Xuewu could introduce Tan Wenxia to work, including Xiaoyu's clinic, followed by Chu Xina's, and the last one was James's clinic.

"Okay, I can."

"Wen Xia, what kind of job do you want to find?" Yang Xuewu asked after putting down the telegram.

After hearing this, Wenxia quickly handed the telegram from the headquarters to Yang Xuewu. Yang Xuewu looked at it and found that there was not much valuable content in the telegram. Only one sentence seemed slightly valuable, that is, he was promoted to Chief of the Operations Division. , no wonder Tan Wenxia called him section chief just now.

Yang Xuewu didn't want to talk about Wenxia's contact with Xiaoyu, and Chu Xin's certainly couldn't do it either. Most of the girls in Chu Xin's were prostitutes and not suitable for talking about Wenxia, ​​so there was only one place left, to go to James's.

"Okay, let me go and help you first. I will drive to you tomorrow to help you move. You can clean it up tonight."

Hearing this, Yang Xuewu looked at Tan Wenxia suspiciously, which made Tan Wenxia instantly nervous. She felt that she had said something wrong, which made Yang Xuewu suspicious.

After receiving the call, Yang Xuewu came to Tan Wenxia's place.

"Section Chief, I understand, thank you."

"There's nothing to thank you for. As you said, it would be nice for you to find a job."

After leaving the French Concession, Yang Xuewu came to the public concession to find James.

Since Yang Xuewu helped James deal with the Green Gang gangsters last time, James had a very good attitude towards Yang Xuewu, and this was the Yang family's industry. When he learned that Yang Xuewu wanted to introduce someone to work, James agreed without saying a word. .

Yang Xuewu then helped Tan Wenxia rent an apartment nearby. The next morning, he drove to the French Concession to help Tan Wenxia move.

More than an hour later, the two took a car to the apartment in the public concession. After Yang Xuewu helped Tan Wenxia move her things to the apartment, the two sat and chatted.

"Section Chief, what kind of job have you found for me?" Tan Wenxia asked.

"Wenxia, ​​the job I found for you is in a pharmaceutical company. The owner of this company is a foreigner and has a good relationship with me. I will take you to him tomorrow morning. I didn't tell him the specific job. I will arrive tomorrow morning. Then you see what you want to do and I’ll tell him.”

"Okay." Tan Wenxia didn't think much about it when she heard that it was a trading company that sold medicines. If she knew that the place Yang Xuewu introduced her to was the Shanghai trading company that sold sulfonamides, Tan Wenxia would be so excited that she couldn't sleep at night. .

Early the next morning, Yang Xuewu picked up Tan Wenxia and went with him to James's business in the public concession.

20 minutes later, the two arrived at their destination, and James warmly received them.

"James, this is my friend Miss Zhang Li. She will work here in the future." Zhang Li was Tan Wenxia's name on her fake identity in Shanghai.

"Hello, Miss Zhang. You are welcome to work in our firm."

"Thank you Mr. James."

"Mr. Yang, I have prepared two jobs for Miss Zhang here. The first job is to do financial work, and the second job is to do sales work. I wonder what kind of job Ms. Zhang likes to do?"

In fact, James thought that the people introduced by Yang Xuewu were worried about him and sent someone to keep an eye on him, so in order to reassure Yang Xuewu, he proposed to let Tan Wenxia do the financial work.

But Tan Wenxia soon replied: "Mr. James, I am willing to work in sales."

Hearing this, James showed surprise on his face. He thought that the person introduced by Yang Xuewu would choose a financial job so that he could better monitor the accounts. Unexpectedly, Tan Wenxia actually wanted to work in sales.

Seeing the strange look on James's face, Yang Xuewu asked, "James, is there anything wrong with her sales job?"

After hearing this, James immediately replied: "Mr. Yang, that's not the case, but will it be too unfair to Miss Yang?" "James, since she wants to do it, just let her do it. There is nothing to be wronged about." Yang Xuewu replied.

"Yes, Mr. James, I prefer sales work to finance work."

Tan Wenxia actually didn't think much about it. The reason why she wanted to work in sales was just to make more money. The financial staff received dead wages, but there were bonuses for good sales work.

"Okay, let Miss Zhang do the sales work."

Then Yang Xuewu left. After Yang Xuewu left, James and Tan Wenxia started talking.

"Ms. Zhang, the main drug sold by our firm is sulfa." Before James could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Tan Wenxia's exclamation.

"Sulfa!" Tan Wenxia said in shock.

"Yes, does Ms. Zhang know about this medicine?"

Wenxia took a deep breath and said, "I have indeed heard that this medicine has a very good anti-inflammatory effect."

Hearing this, James showed a look of pride and said to Tan Wenxia: "Of course, the supply of medicines in our business exceeds demand and the sales are very good."

"Ms. Zhang doesn't have to worry about sales in the future. All you have to do is wait for customers to come to the store to buy. Our store's medicines don't need to be promoted like other products."

"And I will give you some authority. Within a certain range, you can fine-tune the price of the medicine, but the fine-tuning cannot exceed 5%. If you sell a lot, I will reward you based on your sales volume."

"Thank you, Mr. James. Thank you very much." Tan Wenxia thanked him.

"Ms. Zhang is very polite. If you want to thank me, you should thank Mr. Yang."

Hearing this, Wenxia nodded. He knew that the reason why James was polite to her and gave her such a big benefit was entirely for Yang Xuewu's face, otherwise she might not even be qualified to enter a commercial firm as a salesperson.

Tan Wenxia spent the rest of the time getting familiar with the work of the commercial bank. In the blink of an eye, three days passed and Tan Wenxia was already familiar with the work of the commercial bank.

That evening, Tan Wenxia and Gong Xue met.

Then Tan Wenxia told Gong Xue about his situation during this period. Gong Xue was not surprised when he learned that Tan Wenxia had moved. Moving is very common these days.

But when Tan Wenxia said that he worked in a trading house that sold sulfa, Gong Xue was so shocked that he almost bit his lip.

"Why did you work in a business that sells sulfonamides?" Gong Xue asked after calming down for a moment.

"Little sister, my job was arranged for me by my superior in the White Party. He is friends with the boss of that business firm."

As the two gradually became familiar with each other, Tan Wenxia asked Gong Xue to call her sister, while she called Gong Xue little sister.

"This is great!" Gong Xue said in surprise.

In the past, the party organization spent a lot of effort to obtain sulfa. Just asking someone to buy it was a big expense. She did not expect that Comrade "Cuckoo" would one day work in a business selling sulfa.

"Sister, can you help the organization get some more sulfa?" Gong Xue asked.

"Little sister, I am now working as a salesperson in a trading company. As long as I have money, I can make sulfa, and I can also decide on the price by 5%."

Hearing this, Gong Xue nodded excitedly. She didn't expect that Tan Wenxia could not only produce sulfa, but also the price would be cheaper.

"Sister, I will report to my superiors when I get back and ask them to get some funds as soon as possible. The effect of sulfa is so good that we must buy more. We must not miss this good opportunity." Gong Xue said.

"I thought so too. Originally, I wanted to make some money and give it to the organization to fund activities. Who knew that by some strange combination of circumstances, I ended up in a business selling sulfa. It would be such a waste if I didn't make good use of this opportunity. ”

After parting ways with Tan Wenxia, ​​Gong Xue immediately went to her superior and reported what Tan Wenxia said.

When he learned that Tan Wenxia had joined a business selling sulfonamides, he was shocked and speechless.

"Comrade Painter, this is great. I will report it to my superiors as soon as possible and ask them to raise money to buy medicine. If you have the opportunity, thank Comrade "Cuckoo" for me. She has been of great help to the organization."

"I will." Gong Xue nodded excitedly.

Soon after, the Shanghai Red Party pooled a large amount of money and purchased a large amount of sulfonamides from Tan Wenxia. This not only solved the Red Party's urgent need for medicines, but also increased Tan Wenxia's weight in James' heart. , which rewarded Tan Wenxia with a lot of bonuses, which can be said to be the best of both worlds.

In November, William contacted Yang Xuewu.

Since selling Alexander and the list to William last time, William has not contacted Yang Xuewu for a long time. He did not expect that William would contact him at this time. Could it be that William had obtained information about the Japanese again? With this doubt, Yang Xuewu met William.

"William, long time no see."

"Han, long time no see." The two of them greeted each other eagerly, and the little conflicts they once had have disappeared over time.

"William, what do you want from me? Is there any information about the Japanese again?" Yang Xuewu asked with interest.

"Han, I do have some information to sell you, but I can't guarantee whether this information is true or not. You need to make your own judgment."

"Oh, what information, you dare not guarantee whether it is true or false?" Yang Xuewu said in surprise.

"There is information about a senior member of your White Party. He may defect to the Japanese."

Hearing William's words, Yang Xuewu frowned. To be honest, there were many high-level members of the White Party who had defected to the Japanese, and William's information was too specious.

"William, please stop pretending and just tell me who it is. You can't guarantee whether the information is true or false. Do you think I will be interested in this information if you say so?"

Hearing this, William smiled awkwardly and said, "Han, don't worry, I'm going to tell you right now, the person I'm talking about is Wang Quanhai."

"Wang Chuhai!" Yang Xuewu said in surprise.

What Yang Xuewu was actually surprised about was not that Wang Chuanhai would rebel. He had known this for a long time, but he didn't know the specific time of Wang Chuanhai's rebellion. What surprised him was that William would actually get such information.

Wang Chunhai is the vice president of the White Party. Within the White Party, it can be said that one person is inferior to ten thousand people. The Japanese and Wang Chuanhai will definitely keep this kind of information strictly confidential. How did William get it?
But Yang Xuewu's surprised expression fell in William's eyes. He thought that Yang Xuewu didn't believe his information. In fact, let alone Yang Xuewu, even he had great doubts about the authenticity of this information. Wang Reclamation is the second-in-command of the White Party. Is it necessary for him to surrender to the Japanese?
Not many people would believe the intelligence that the good second-in-command of the White Party was not the right one, but he wanted to surrender to the Japanese and be used as a dog to the Japanese.
