In a certain unit in Yancheng, in the chief's office, the chief looked at the telegram in front of him, his expression still somewhat sad.

He has been in this state for two days, but he still hasn't recovered. After all, a good comrade has sacrificed his life.

Ever since he received the telegram three days ago, he has always felt empty in his heart.

He never imagined that Lao Zhang would go to Shanghai to carry out a mission, but he never expected that he would die tragically in Shanghai.

The mission had not yet been launched and the work had not yet begun when the Xicheng District of Shanghai was blocked. In addition, the news was accidentally leaked by external operation personnel during surveillance. When Lao Zhang went to find Lao Xie, he was directly targeted, which implicated Lao Xie and others.

"Alas, Mr. Zhang, you haven't been in Shanghai for more than half a year, and you still don't know much about Shanghai. You lost your life, and not only that, you also implicated many people!"

The leader was both distressed and troubled. After all, this could be said to be a failed dispatch, or even a failed operation.

The entire army was wiped out, completely wiped out, and it also dragged down the Shanghai underground organization.

……

In a small apartment somewhere in Shanghai, an old man in good spirits was sitting there, with a cup of hot tea in front of him, which was emitting a wisp of steam.

Behind him stood a young man, looking out the window calmly.

"Teacher, the third part of the Japanese Zero Plan has already begun. They have invited three famous Chinese economic experts and three Japanese beauties to serve them. Now they are so happy that they don't want to leave."

"It doesn't matter to us anyway. We are just ordinary people, ordinary university teachers. Other political matters have nothing to do with us, understand?"

"Teacher, these three economic experts heard that you were in Shanghai and came to visit you at noon, but you were at school at the time and missed their arrival! I estimate that they may come to visit you again in the afternoon or tomorrow!"

"No, they are economic experts. I am just a poor teacher. I am not from the same world as them. They will reject me directly after they come!"

"Teacher, I think it's difficult to refuse them. After all, they were invited by the Japanese to help them. I'm afraid..."

The young man still raised the question carefully.

"Three economic experts, haha, they are indeed capable, but that's all. What they can really show off is probably just a joke. Shanghai is not Chongqing, nor is it Nanjing, and it is not just hype. If you want to help the Japanese, you have to have real skills."

"With their abilities, they will kill themselves. When they were my students, I realized the shortcomings of these three people, but I never thought that they would defect to the Japanese. It's ridiculous, really ridiculous."

"If there is one person Shanghai can really look up to, there is indeed one, but I guess he can't get along with those people. With just these three guys, it's a long way to go to get things done."

"Teacher, you're not talking about that Jingping Jiichiro, are you?"

"Yes, his ability should be better than mine. I have analyzed the economic development events in Shanghai in the past six or seven years, and found that there are two people who deserve my attention. The first one is Mihara Kojiro, but this guy disappeared, or he made enough money to go out and have fun. After all, the speed at which his Mihara Company makes money is really unimaginable."

"The second Jingping Jiichiro, who endured silently and was not noticed by others, actually developed assets worth tens of millions of yen. That is cash. As for the assets of his subordinates, it is more than tens of millions. Although he was suppressed and his assets in Shanghai continued to shrink, his achievements should not be underestimated."

"Especially the economic plan launched some time ago. Although I didn't see it, during the process of its implementation, the gendarmerie earned more than 200,000 yuan in the first month alone, which was more than half a month. As for him, he may have earned more. But unfortunately, the gendarmerie did not protect him well, which led to his direct resignation."

"Maybe Keihei Jiichiro is a little clever, right?"

"No, he is very wise and knows how to secretly accumulate his strength instead of doing things blindly. I have also seen his plan, which is indeed feasible. Even if I make a plan, it is not as good as his." "What a pity, what a pity. If such a person had not been suppressed or ignored by the Japanese, he would definitely be a great talent. But now he has lost everything. He is a bachelor. Even if the Japanese show sincerity, I guess there is not much hope."

"The biggest failure was to involve Yoko. Anyone who is not a fool knows that if the talented people are pushed out, Jingping will not help them. That's weird."

"Didn't he build the Siyang Factory?"

"The Siyang Factory was taken over out of necessity. It was probably just for fun. It's dispensable. Look at how big it is. Four square kilometers. There are six factories merged into it, six factories for steelmaking, machine manufacturing, etc. I guess they just built a few factories for fun. It's impossible to build many workshops."

"Teacher, you are amazing. They checked the factory over there and found that there are only two steelmaking workshops, and they are not large in scale. There are only six mechanical manufacturing workshops, which are mainly for parts production and other complex things. There are two parts manufacturing workshops, one forging workshop, one milling workshop, one welding workshop, and one equipment workshop!"

"It seems that my guess was right. I guess he bought these machines too. Jing Ping would not like the original machines."

"Wow, teacher, it was really bought in Hong Kong, and it's a German machine!"

"I guess Jingping Jiichiro is not in Shanghai now?"

The old man reached out and picked up the cup on the table, took a sip, then closed his eyelids and half-lay down to relax his body.

"Yes, I'm going to Tianjin now. I went to Nanjing a few days ago. It only takes less than an hour to get to Shanghai, so I left Shanghai for Tianjin."

"Haha, smart, really smart. He has realized this and doesn't want to get involved in this mess. He just left Shanghai and left people speechless. This is how smart they are."

The old man took a deep breath and uttered a few words: "He left before the Japanese took over the concession, right?"

"Yes, I heard that he left on the evening of the 6th. He said that the factory was out of raw materials, so he went to Nanjing to purchase more. We checked and found that this was indeed the case."

"He could have sent someone to Nanjing or called, but he went there himself. Don't you see the reason? But he saw it very clearly and knew he couldn't get involved, otherwise there would be endless trouble."

The old man opened his eyes slightly again and glanced at the young man standing behind him. It was a pity that the young man had defected to the Japanese, otherwise he would have taught him seriously.

As for the entire integrated economy of Shanghai, the old man could see that the only Japanese people who could integrate it perfectly were him and Jiichiro Keihei, but Jiichiro Keihei left.

But he is a retired old man and doesn't want to get involved at all, so he is now completely imprisoned at home by the Japanese unless he agrees to the Japanese's conditions.

Unfortunately, he was a lonely man and had no evidence at all, so the Japanese could only use this method to slowly influence him.

But things did not go as they wished. Jingping Jiichiro left, and the original Mihara Kojiro also left Shanghai, leaving only this old man.

As a smart man, how could he not understand what the Japanese were thinking and what the student next to him was thinking, but how could he possibly agree to it?

He mentioned these two people in front of the students in order to divert attention and let these two Japanese share his pressure.

Unfortunately, he could see that Jingping Jiichiro was a bachelor, and apart from the Sanyo factory, he had no other leverage over him. At most, it was just a factory, and the money he earned was enough anyway.

And Mihara Kojiro was not in Shanghai at all, or no one knew where he was. (End of this chapter)
