Chapter 189 Cooperation
"Boss, how did you do it?" Lu Yuan was eating breakfast, but Hogg hurried over with a newspaper.Lu Yuan didn't pay attention to Hogg, but squinted at the newspaper that Hogg brought. The headline on the newspaper was the explosion that happened in the Japanese expatriate area yesterday.It was already the third day after Lu Yuan set up the booby trap, and Lu Yuan also wanted to know how many Japanese soldiers were killed by that howitzer shell that he modified.

Lu Yuan's calmness made Hogg more excited, "Boss, how did you do it? According to the newspaper, 23 Japanese soldiers died in the big explosion yesterday, and the scene of the incident was a Japanese The residence of the shipping merchant. Although the newspaper didn’t say what happened to the Japanese merchant, I know he must be dead, right?” Hogg paid attention to Lu Yuan’s expression while speaking, but he didn’t follow Lu Yuan’s attention at all. What do you see on your face.

Of course, Hogg couldn't tell anything from Lu Yuan's expression at the moment. After flipping through the newspaper, Lu Yuan stretched out his hand and pushed away the plate with half a fried egg left and said to Hogg. "What does this have to do with me? Did your eye see that I did it? I'm going to go out later, you look at those workers, get the basement done as soon as possible, those things I ordered Schuchman to order But it’s coming soon, so don’t delay my business.”

Lu Yuan did not admit that the explosion in the Japanese overseas Chinese gathering area had something to do with him, so Hogg naturally didn't say much, but when Lu Yuan went out, he told Lu Yuan to be more careful according to the usual practice.Lu Yuan didn't really take Hogg's exhortation to heart. Besides, he only went to the Hutchison Tea Shop two streets away. Lu Yuan knew that as long as he didn't go out of the American Concession, he would basically not cause unnecessary troubles.

When Lu Yuan walked into the Hutchison Tea Shop, he was carrying an exquisite briefcase in his hand, but no one would have guessed that the briefcase in Lu Yuan's hand contained two pistols and hundreds of bullets.Ma Baocheng, the shopkeeper of the tea shop, saw Lu Yuan appearing, followed the method he had discussed with Wang Qingnian, and then greeted him with a big smile on his face, and let Lu Yuan in in front of all the tea customers under the pretext of a big business visit. In the inner room of the tea shop.

"Mr. Lu, this is what you want. In a hurry, we can only provide this information." Lu Yuan and the two sat down in the inner room, and Ma Baocheng took out a large envelope from the hidden compartment of the floor case Pass it to Lu Yuan.Lu Yuan was not surprised when he arrived. He reached out to take the envelope and opened it in front of Ma Baocheng. After flipping through the large and small notes in the envelope, Lu Yuan opened the briefcase beside him.

"Horse shopkeeper, according to my understanding of your underground party, weapons, ammunition and funds should be what you need most. I came here in a hurry this time, so I only brought two pistols and 200 rounds of ammunition, and some money, I hope These things can help you." Lu Yuan opened the briefcase, took out the pistol, bullets and two rolls of banknotes and put them in Ma Baocheng's hand. "Treasurer Ma, don't rush to refuse. When I cooperated with the Shanghai underground party, we got along in the same way."

Ma Baocheng, who wanted to refuse, did not continue to insist, but he still pushed back the two rolls of banknotes to Lu Yuan, "Mr. Lu, the business of the tea shop is not bad, so we are not short of funds for the time being. Pistols and bullets , we can accept it, but we don’t need the money.” Although Ma Baocheng said so, the flicker in his eyes could not escape Lu Yuan’s attention, and he knew it was because the other party didn’t want to get involved too much with him Meaning, Lu Yuan reached out and took back those shoe notes.

The business has been discussed, but Lu Yuan didn't want to go back so soon, so he said to Ma Baocheng, "Master Ma, I still have some weapons and ammunition here, all of which are Japanese military standard weapons. I wonder if you are interested?" Lu Yuan The words made Ma Baocheng's heart skip a beat, and he pinched his thigh before he spoke, and he had become more and more suspicious of Lu Yuan's identity, after all, not just casual people can get Japanese military standard weapons.

"The Japanese are watching very closely. I'm afraid it will be difficult for your weapons and ammunition to be transported in, and it will be difficult for us to transport them out after receiving them." Ma Baocheng did not answer Lu Yuan directly, but first talked about the tight blockade of the Japanese army in Tianjin in an ambiguous manner. .Lu Yuan, who laughed at the words, knew in his heart that this was Ma Baocheng's test of himself, and the underground party would naturally be interested in the weapons and ammunition in his hands, but the other party still did not dare to fully believe in him.

Lu Yuan frowned, took out a cigarette and lit a cigarette. After a while, Lu Yuan said to Ma Baocheng, "Master Ma, I don't think it would be better than this. From now on, I will put what I said Weapons and ammunition are all hidden in the suburbs, so that it is convenient for your people to transport. And you don’t need to give money, just follow my request and try your best to help me collect information. And I only have one-line contact with you, you don’t have to worry because I will endangering the rest of you, and I don't have to worry about revealing my identity to the Japanese."

Lu Yuan's words aroused Ma Baocheng's interest. Lu Yuan's meaning just now has been expressed very clearly. According to the commercial transaction method, Lu Yuan can already be regarded as paying first and then getting the goods.Seeing that Ma Baocheng was still thinking secretly with a happy face, Lu Yuan immediately continued, "If you are worried that receiving weapons in the suburbs of Tianjin will be troublesome, that's okay too. As long as it is within the boundaries of Hebei, you can designate any place Alright, I will send the weapons and ammunition to the place you designated."

With a bang, Ma Baocheng's head seemed to be boiling, and his whole body trembled.Lu Yuan's words just now can be regarded as successfully frightening Ma Baocheng. Ma Baocheng, who is almost 50 years old, has seen many capable people in his life, but none of them has the courage of Lu Yuan. "You mean, as long as you are in Hebei, you can send the weapons and ammunition directly to our people?" Ma Baocheng asked back in an unbelievable tone, and his eyes were fixed on Lu Yuan.

"That's natural. What I said is naturally accepted. Xu Huanshan should know my temper, and he will do what he says." Lu Yuan met Ma Baocheng's gaze and said slowly, not minding Ma Baocheng's scrutiny of himself at all. "You may not know what I have done in Shanghai, but I can tell you that I provided the weapons and ammunition newly obtained by the underground party in Shanghai. As long as you help me collect the information I want, the weapons and ammunition will definitely I won’t give you less, even heavy weapons like machine guns and mortars, I can get them.”

Lu Yuan's calmness made Ma Baocheng suspicious again. If Lu Yuan only said that he could get pistols and rifles, Ma Baocheng might not be so suspicious of Lu Yuan, but Lu Yuan also mentioned machine guns and mortars just now, which made Ma Baocheng reborn. Confuse.From the corner of his eye, he saw Ma Baocheng's right hand slowly sliding towards the table, Lu Yuan immediately smiled and said, "Master Ma, the cooperation between the two parties is about mutual trust. Before you fully trust me, I will provide some weapons and ammunition to you." You, what you need to do now is to designate a place for me first."

Lu Yuan's words stopped Ma Baocheng's hand sliding towards the table. Ma Baocheng, who was about to ring the electric bell, thought carefully about Lu Yuan's words just now, as if this matter was not harmful to Tianjin underground party from inside to outside.Lu Yuan watched with satisfaction as Ma Baocheng withdrew his right hand that slid towards the table, "Master Ma, I still have more than a dozen pistols, six Japanese [-] rifles and some bullets here. If you can give me three days , I can still get no less than thirty [-] rifles and two light machine guns, and maybe there are grenade grenades."

The Tianjin underground party is also forming an action team. Weapons and funds have always been a big problem. If the funds can be regarded as barely resolved, how to get enough weapons has been a big problem that has always plagued the Tianjin underground party.After sending Lu Yuan away, Ma Baocheng immediately went to find Wang Qingnian through the secret channel, and learned that Lu Yuan promised to provide weapons and ammunition to the underground party for free. Wang Qingnian, who was overjoyed, immediately violated the lurking regulations for the first time and contacted Wang Qingnian through the emergency communication channel. Tianjin underground party branch.

Lu Yuan, who had already left the Hutchison Tea Shop, didn't know that a single promise of his own would lead to so many things. At this moment, he was sitting in a coffee shop on the corner of the street, drinking coffee leisurely, while carefully flipping through the Looking at the information provided by Ma Baocheng.Lu Yuan could tell that the handwriting on these notes in the envelope was not from one person. Lu Yuan classified them secretly, and found at least four handwritings.

"This means that there are at least four intelligence agents collecting information for them at this Heji Tea Shop." Lu Yuan reached out and stroked his chin, and while turning his gaze out of the window, he was also thinking quickly in his mind.The information provided by Heji Tea Shop to Lu Yuan is very messy, which requires Lu Yuan to carefully analyze and classify it, and analyze and deduce useful information from it.All morning, Lu Yuan nestled in this coffee shop, carefully looking through the notes.

Before lunch, Lu Yuan, who had read all the notes, went to the Heji tea shop again. After being led into the inner room by Ma Baocheng, Lu Yuan took out three notes from his pocket and handed them to Ma Baocheng. "Treasurer Ma, I am very interested in them. I hope your people can step up the investigation of this place. Also, please tell your people that it is best to stop all activities in and around Haiguang Temple today and tomorrow. I am going to give a big gift package to the Japanese army in Tianjin."

Ma Baocheng has been lurking in Tianjin for several years, so he naturally knows what Haiguang Temple is. After the July [-]th Incident, it has become the headquarters of the North China Japanese Army Command, and the Tianjin Japanese Military Police Headquarters is also there.But before Ma Baocheng asked carefully, Lu Yuan had already got up and left. The helpless Ma Baocheng had no choice but to relay Lu Yuan's original words to Wang Qingnian.
