Spy Shadow

Chapter 874 Purchasing Information

As long as these medicines can allow several generals to continue to make money, there will be an unbreakable alliance of interests between them and Chu Lingyun.

But the most important thing is the old man.

According to the results of Xu Lin's investigation, the old man was really very special to Chu Lingyun. During the war, the war situation team spied on a lot of important military information. This was their contribution. What Xu Lin couldn't understand was why the old man insisted on taking Shiyuan Trading Company into account. Reward Chu Lingyun?

That was the fat meat that Tang Boyuan was eyeing. As a result, Tang Boyuan didn't even eat the meat, he didn't even touch the soup, and he was even injured.

At most, you will be driven away after smelling the fragrance.

These are domestic only.

Chu Lingyun's relationship in the United States was even stronger. The Americans wanted to take away his pharmaceutical factory by force, but in the end they compromised and gave up half of the production to China. Chu Lingyun did it himself without asking anyone to help.

According to the investigation, Chu Lingyun is a financial backer of a governor in the United States and has a good relationship with General Mike.

Apart from anything else, Mike is in Japan and the Allies are gone, but the powerful power of the United States is still in Asia. Even an old man has to consider Mike's attitude. With this relationship, Chu Lingyun is equivalent to having a gold medal to avoid death. .

No wonder Boss Dai is so jealous of Chu Lingyun. If it were him, he would be jealous too and would definitely suppress him.

Bao Shengqun had a good idea.

Xu Lin didn't care about Chu Lingyun's relationship. The stronger his relationship, the better. Xu Lin didn't directly target him, but asked Boss Dai to fight Chu Lingyun. This was an obvious conflict between Zhongtong and Juntong.

After all, the Central Committee is an intelligence agency. Given the current situation of the party, it is not difficult to find out anything that has happened.

Many people in the top management know about Chu Lingyun's situation.

Xu Lin followed the plan given to him by Bao Shengqun and began to look for people around Shen Hanwen. He couldn't become fat with one bite, and he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry. This plan will not work in the short term, but once it succeeds, the military commander will be a leader in the future. Ground chicken feathers.

Maybe the military commander will be seriously injured, and the Chu faction is not weak now.

In addition to the internal personnel of the Chu sect, there are also many foreign aids from the Chu sect. Wang Yuemin of the Shanghai station has the strongest relationship with Chu Lingyun. He Nian, who was demoted to Hong Kong, is also Chu Lingyun's boss and has many supports for Chu Lingyun.

Including Xu Yi from the Intelligence Department and Wu Yong from the General Affairs Department, their relationship with Chu Lingyun is not bad.

Together, these powers cannot be underestimated even by Boss Dai.

In the United States, Smith left the pharmaceutical factory with satisfaction.

The production capacity of new drugs has increased again. After the war, in addition to the reserve drugs prepared for the Ministry of National Defense, they have been allowed to be put on the private market. Nowadays, there is a strong demand among the public for new drugs. They could not be purchased during the war before, but some people have passed through other The channel obtained this life-saving medicine.

Many people are looking forward to the launch of new drugs.

The first batch they put on the market was half a million.

It sounds like a lot, but in the face of the huge market, this amount of medicine is simply not enough. All the new medicines were ordered as soon as they were released, and the prices are still very high.

Some people say that their pharmaceutical companies make money as fast as a money printing machine.

In Smith's mind, money printing machines are not as profitable as their pharmaceutical companies.

Smith's ambitions have expanded a lot now, and the governor cannot satisfy him. He will compete for higher positions in the future, and even the president may not be without hope. A bright future is in front of him. The pharmaceutical factory is his greatest support, and he values ​​this place the most. .

"Boss, Mr. Liu is here."

As soon as he returned to the office, his sexy female secretary came in to report. Smith immediately stood up and greeted her personally.

There are not many people who can be picked up by Smith in person, let alone the Chinese.

Liu Chengzhu can be said to be a rare exception.

"Liu, how's it going at school?"

Seeing Liu Chengzhu, Smith took the initiative to ask. Chu was his bread and butter and his biggest financial sponsor. Without Chu Lingyun's support, he would probably be beaten back to his original form soon.

It is impossible for him to become homeless and live in poverty, but he will definitely not be able to adapt to being an ordinary person after enjoying the power.

Chu Lingyun's affairs are his business, and he takes Chu Lingyun's affairs very seriously.

"not too good."

Liu Chengzhu came here just for this matter, and Chu Yuanchen and his school started recruiting students this summer.

However, the enrollment results are not so ideal. Many people have concerns about this new school. Even if it is free, not many people will send their children to school. In addition to not believing that Americans will be so kind, there is another point, many The children have to help the family with work.

American schools have scholarships, but they are not given to every student like in China.

The national conditions are different. Schools that recruit a large number of Chinese students are inherently dazzling. If they go too far, they can easily attract protests from others.

"What's going on? Someone is causing trouble?"

Smith frowned. He understood how much Chu Lingyun valued his family. In addition, he also admired Chu Yuanchen.

He has known Chu Yuanchen for nine years and knows very well what kind of person Chu Yuanchen is.

Chu Yuanchen and his wife are truly great people. They are willing to devote their lives to education and have been doing so. Whether it is for Chu Lingyun or because of Chu Yuanchen's personality charm, Smith is willing to help them.

"No, but enrollment has been slow. There are less than a hundred students so far."

Liu Chengzhu shook his head. The school prepared by Chu Lingyun for his parents could accommodate thousands of people, less than a hundred people, not even a fraction. At first, Chu Yuanchen recruited a lot of teachers. If he hadn't recruited too many teachers at the beginning, I'm afraid the teacher will be more than the number of students.

Faced with this situation, Chu Yuanchen was very worried.

The salary of American teachers is very high. They pay a lot of dollars every month, but they can only help so many people. How could Chu Yuanchen not be in a hurry? It is simply a waste of money.

If this money were kept in China, I don’t know how many children it could help.

“Why can’t we recruit people?”

Smith asked, and Liu Chengzhu told him the results of the investigation in detail.

There are not many Chinese here, but their lives are generally difficult. Because of the existence of the Chinese Exclusion Act, their lives were very difficult. Now there are free schools, but they cannot afford them.

It doesn’t mean that free means you can use nothing.

What about food expenses?

The food fee charged by the school is very low, but even so, people protested to the city government. These Americans have different ideas from others. They like to talk about similar people. As long as you do much better than others, you will always attract criticism.

It is said that it is for the sake of fairness, but in fact it is the greatest injustice.

That’s fair, why was there the Chinese Exclusion Act before?

In addition to food expenses, there are also labor costs. Regardless of whether they are primary school students, they still have to do things at home. If they can't do strenuous work, they can do other things, such as helping out with a little help, or helping their parents take care of their younger siblings.

Without these children, younger children would have no one to take care of them, forcing their parents to spend extra energy and indirectly affecting their income.

Smith knew these situations best. After thinking about it, he immediately said: "What about using a welfare home?"

"no."

Liu Chengzhu shook his head directly. He has been in the United States for many years and knows this place very well.

The welfare home model can solve these problems, but they are not schools that only cater to Chinese people. They just favor Chinese people when recruiting students.

Only accepting Chinese will be protested immediately.

Just like the teachers in the school cannot all be Chinese, and Chinese is an elective course, English must be spoken in the school.

If we switch to the orphanage model, we don't have to worry about the student population, but it's unknown how many Chinese students we can recruit in the future. I'm afraid more positions will be occupied by others from the United States.

Don’t think that just because they say they are free and fair, they really do things fairly.

The most unfair thing is them. Once they discover the benefits, they will rush over in droves.

"Let's ask Chu, he must have a solution."

Smith had no idea and looked at Liu Chengzhu. Liu Chengzhu frowned. The boss was not in the United States and had never even been here. Is it really useful to tell him?

But in his heart, the boss is an omnipotent person, and there is nothing the boss cannot do.

"You can try it."

At the end of his mind, Liu Chengzhu sighed and nodded. The school must recruit enough students as soon as possible. This year, it must recruit at least 300 students.

We will try to recruit more students next year so that the school can develop steadily and upward.

The two of them compiled the telegram together, and soon the transoceanic telegram arrived in Chongqing and was delivered to Chu Lingyun's office.

The content of the telegram was not short. Smith took the opportunity to report on the pharmaceutical factory. As for the matters that Liu Chengzhu was responsible for, he did not mention them in it, otherwise the content would be longer.

There are some things that Liu Chengzhu has mastered that are not suitable for Smith to know.

Chu Lingyun had expected that her parents' stay in the United States would not go well, but she didn't expect it to be so bad. It took so long to recruit even a hundred students.

It is completely incomparable to domestic ones.

He knew better about his parents and he really needed to help them resolve this matter as soon as possible.

It is not difficult to solve. The American systems that are incomprehensible to the Chinese people actually have loopholes. Just seize their loopholes.

The first is scholarships. This must be available and cannot be targeted at all students. Then increase the number of scholarships and make certain restrictions, such as how many points are required for the exam. In addition, the United States will not only look at a few main courses, but also some other courses. High scores are also required.

This is not a problem for him. The Chinese are the most hard-working nation in the world, and they are also the most willing to learn and work hard.

If the parents of those students knew that studying could make money, they would definitely support their children. As for whether others would take away these scholarships, Chu Lingyun didn't care.

First of all, the scholarship amount will not be too high, but it will be attractive enough to the Chinese community.

To put it simply, it is an amount that rich families don’t value at all, but for poor people, it is their living expenses for several months.

Second is the frequency of scholarships.

Set the maximum number of times within the prescribed range. If other schools have opinions, you can do the same.

Just a scholarship is not enough. Chinese people have been bullied in the United States for a long time. They don't trust Americans that much, even if the principal is Chinese.

It's simple. If you don't believe it, I'll force you to believe it.

Liu Chengzhu found more local ruffians to find out which Chinese families had children of school age. If they were in particularly difficult circumstances, he would help them secretly, or if not, force them to send their children to school.

Dare you not send it?

There will never be peace again.

The method is a bit despicable, but it is very effective. The gangs in the United States today are not small, and ordinary people dare not provoke them. As long as there is a way, Chu Lingyun does not care about the means.

Just as long as the purpose can be achieved.

So what if they were scared? It might change the fate of their children's lives.

Maybe there can really be a few scientists here. Chu Lingyun doesn't expect them to really return to the country. If they can come back, it will be a harvest. Maybe they can help the country and make great contributions in the future.

Do this first and wait for two years. After the students who enroll in the school are stable and can really learn a lot, and the school's reputation is completely established, then more students will be admitted.

How to recruit more Chinese students, Chu Lingyun actually has a way.

That is to open factories with mainly Chinese workers, especially more Chinese. The relationship between the United States and China is not bad now, and then open schools for factory children so that the children of these workers can go to school.

However, this method is also slow to take effect. Chu Lingyun has not thought about increasing investment for the time being, but he can try it in the future.

For Chu Lingyun, his biggest goal has been achieved, sending his parents away, as long as they are healthy and doing what they like abroad.

Liu Chengzhu quickly received a call back from Chu Lingyun. After reading the message, he was stunned. Is this really a call back from his boss?

But think about it, the boss can do this kind of thing.

They force people to send their children to school, and if they dare not go, they will be punished so that they dare not go out. When they have no other choice, these honest Chinese can only send their children to study.

Although the method is shady, it is certainly effective.

The boss is not a foolish and kind person, otherwise why would he have so many mercenaries under his command?

The number of people killed by the boss has long been unknown, especially the Japanese. He killed more.

Liu Chengzhu didn't know about Chu Lingyun's killing of the Liaison Department guards, and Hua Hui was even more shocked when he did. That time, he killed more than 4,000 people in one go.

The number of people who died directly at the hands of Chu Lingyun was not only 10,000, but also 8,000.

Not to mention those who are indirect.

With Chu Lingyun's instructions, Liu Chengzhu did what he said. Smith had no objection to these methods. He could help solve some official matters and leave all secret matters to Liu Chengzhu.

Smith believes the school will soon have enough students.

Chongqing, a residential area.

The houses here are not big, and they are built on high ground. You have to climb a flight of stairs to go up and down. Most of the people living here are ordinary people who don't have much money and can't buy or rent a good house, so they live here.

Although inconvenient, this is hardly a slum.

After all, the house is well built and can protect it from wind and rain. You don’t have to worry about rainwater accumulating and flooding the house when it rains. Moreover, the terrain here is very good. In the past few years of the Anti-Japanese War, this place has not been bombed.

The terrain here is sloping, making it difficult for planes to drop bombs.

Most of the people living here are ordinary workers or office workers, such as some small employees in government departments. They usually have little money, live paycheck to paycheck, and cannot afford good houses.

Ling Bokang lived here.

He had been working in the Central Unification Bureau for many years. Unfortunately, he had bad luck and never had good development. He had just been transferred to the Intelligence Department two years ago. The main reason was that many of the elites in the Intelligence Department were sent out, and as a result, they were lost outside.

He was previously in the operations department and performed fairly well, so he was transferred here by Bao Shengqun.

Now he is still a soldier.

Secret agents make money, but that is the spy leader, the lowest-level agent, who always does the most tiring work, takes the greatest risks, and gets the lowest money.

There is no way, the entire fruit party is like this.

"The boss is back."

Ling Bokang climbed the stairs for more than ten minutes and soon arrived at his home. His home was not too high, and the higher ones would take longer to climb.

His wife and children are in the yard. Ling Bokang has four children. The eldest and second child have reached school age and are now in school. The third child is a girl and she is not allowed to study. The fourth child is still young, so the third child helps to take care of her.

"Why are you here again?"

Ling Bokang's face fell. There were not only his wife and children in his yard, but also a younger man. When he came in, the man was teasing his young son. The candy in the young son's mouth was obviously given by the man.

Ling Bokang was almost forty, and his wife looked older because of long-term hard work. He was not worried about his wife stealing a man, and he knew very well that this man was here for him.

"Mr. Ling, let's talk about our house."

The man stood up with a smile. Ling Bokang glanced at his wife and children and reluctantly nodded.

"Mr. Ling, I know your situation very well. Why bother? You don't know better than me what those officials are like. Why are they so popular and so fat that it's so difficult for us to eat meat?"

"Your wife said that the last time you ate meat was two months ago, when you and your colleagues ate the remaining half of a roast chicken outside. Your wife was reluctant to eat it, so your three sons ate it all."

The man said softly that his name was Ji Guotian and he was an information dealer on the black market.

Ling Bokang knew his identity and his purpose for finding him. He had been here before and persuaded him to provide some information so that he could give him money and improve his life.

Ling Bokang was not a fool. Xu Lin had just conducted a round of screening within Zhongtong. Several people who betrayed information to these businessmen were all executed. It was easy for him to betray information, but once the bureau found out, he would definitely die.

He simply didn't dare to take such a high risk.

Ji Guotian did not give up, and came to see him again and again. This was not the first time. In fact, Ji Guotian tried to contact him half a year ago, but he never agreed.

He didn't dare to report it either.

Intelligence merchants make money by buying intelligence and developing moles. It is useless for you to report them. After all, they have not obtained information from you. Moreover, these intelligence merchants are also very powerful behind them.

Last time Xu Lin found three intelligence dealers, but only executed one and imprisoned one.

Even Xu Lin didn't dare to arrest one of them.

Without any background these days, who would dare to do these headless businesses?

"A buyer took the initiative to ask for Bao Shengqun's information and offered a very high price. This is the deposit. After the information is verified, there will be double the deposit."

Ji Guotian took out a big letter, which was worth a hundred yuan. Ling Bokang's eyes never left when he saw the big thing. With so many big things, he didn't know how long it would take him to save them with his salary.

His salary is not low, but his expenses are also high, especially since he has four children and a wife. He just eats and drinks and has no income. The whole family relies on him alone, and the children have to go to school. Life must be very tight.
