Chapter 468 Investigating Lin Shi
"But I have a way of finding him, and I can persuade him to speak for you."

Chu Lingyun's words were like a sledgehammer to Takemoto's heart. If he really had the young master of the Hosokawa family to help him, it would mean that he had the Hosokawa family as the backing. With his ability, it would not be difficult for him to be promoted.

He was able to be promoted to major at the age of 30 because of his military exploits.

As early as in the Northeast, he fought bravely and made many meritorious deeds.

He made a lot of contributions, but even so, after graduating from Army University, it took many years before he was promoted to Major.

After being promoted, he didn't move for three years.

"You have so much influence on Master Hosokawa?"

Takemoto asked suspiciously, although it was a question, but there was desire in his tone.

"Takemoto-kun, you can ask Chishang-kun, Master Hosokawa sent him a letter through me, what did he say in the letter."

Chu Lingyun said while pouring wine, Chi Zhousi nodded immediately: "Young master indeed wrote me a letter, and it was forwarded to me through Mr. Shi Yuan, but unfortunately this letter is not with me now, and was taken back to China by the family members .”

The letter Chu Lingyun wrote to Chi Shang was indeed taken away by the Hosokawa family.

Ikegami did not dare to hide the letter from Tomotaka Hosokawa, and someone took the letter from him the next day. For the Hosokawa family, any information from the young master is very important to them.

"What is the content of the letter?"

Takemoto asked anxiously, Chishang is a captain, and Inoue told him that Chishang is now deeply appreciated by his boss's captain, and he will be promoted to a major soon after he has made meritorious service.

Ikegami's level will not be lower than him in the future.

The job assigned to Ikegami before he was injured was not good. It was Ishihara Hiroshi who helped him operate and changed everything.

In fact, he still had great expectations in his heart.

"Young master encouraged me, and at the same time explained that Mr. Shi Yuan is his best friend, so I can trust him."

There is indeed such a word in the letter, but it is not so obvious.

Now, in order to help Chu Lingyun, Chishang naturally picked up the good ones.

"Ishihara-kun, do you really have such a good relationship with Master Hosokawa?"

Takemoto asked again, but this time it was not in a questioning tone, but in an uncertain tone.

"Ji Hyo has been lonely since he was a child, he doesn't have many friends, and I'm the only friend he talks to."

Chu Lingyun smiled slightly, no one knew what Hosokawa Zhitaka was thinking better than him, besides, he could say whatever he wanted, Hosokawa Zhitaka would definitely help him get back together.

The left hand talks to the right hand, very simple.

"Ishihara-kun, I am sorry for my behavior just now. If you really have a way to let Master Hosokawa speak for me, Takemoto will be very grateful."

Takemoto Hidesaku stood up suddenly and bowed deeply to Chu Lingyun.

It would be foolish for him to let go of such a good opportunity.

Chi Shang smiled, this scene was so familiar, he had done it not too long ago.

Although Ishihara-kun is a businessman, he is indeed very attractive and capable, and he does everything he has said, and Ikegami firmly believes in this.

"Takemoto-kun, you are too polite. Sit down. Inoue is my friend. I am also very grateful for your taking care of him."

Chu Lingyun pulled Takemoto to finish the job, while Inoue beside him was dumbfounded.

Why did their attitudes change so much in such a short period of time?
In the past, it was Takemoto who thanked Ishihara and Ikegami for taking care of him. Why is it now that Ishihara thanked Takemoto?
Does he have such a big face?
However, Ishihara-kun is really powerful. Major Takemoto is a very proud person. He even asked Takemoto to salute before he finished his meal. Ordinary people can't do that.

As for Hosokawa Tomotaka, he knew that this person was the young master of a noble family, and he was a top nobleman.

It's a pity that he is a small person, such a person is too far away from him.

"Ishihara-kun, please, just tell me what you need, as long as I have it."

Takemoto really wanted to join the line of the Hosokawa family and find a good backer for himself, which would be very polite to Chu Lingyun.

Chu Lingyun understood what he meant, it was to give him a favor.

"Takemoto, as I said just now, Inoue is my friend, we are on our own, I don't need anything, and if you want to be promoted, Zhixiao can indeed do it by saying hello to you, but if you want to find a better position, you still need You work hard yourself, Commander Matsumoto, you must do more activities."

Chu Lingyun said indifferently, and Chishang felt that the words were familiar again.

What I said to him before was all related to the Hosokawa family, but now it has become Inoue, but the content is the same, it is all about my own people.

He really admires Shi Yuan-kun's ability to make friends.

"Yes, we are our own people."

Takemoto Hidesaku nodded with a smile, then glanced at Inoue next to him.

Inoue is his lucky general, he didn't expect to come out with Inoue today, and there is such an unexpected harvest.

The reason why so many people were frantically looking for Hosokawa Tomotaka before was because they wanted to board the boat of the Hosokawa family.

At that time, Konoe Hosokawa and his family had not yet married, and Konoe-sama had not even become prime minister.

Now that the Hosokawa family has even greater influence, if they really got on this boat, the future will definitely be bright.

It's done, and another one is fooled.

Takemoto is not Ikegami, and the relationship with him still needs to be strengthened, but to gain his favor, today is already a success.

Full of wine and food, Takemoto took the opportunity to go to the toilet to settle the bill first. A meal is not cheap, but as long as it can get things done, the money is worth it.

"Takemoto-kun, don't worry, I will look for Zhixiao next and persuade him to come back."

At the time of parting, Chu Lingyun promised again, while Chishang felt a little overwhelmed that if Shi Yuanheng could really find the young master, he would definitely follow him.

……

In the French Concession, Lin Shi found a big shop and named it Desheng Commercial Firm.

The investment in the firm was only [-] U.S. dollars, and now Lin Shi had so much money.

Other people in the National Defense Agency were busy negotiating with the big powers, while Lin Shi sent some money to the head of the team, and no one cared what he did next.

It is not uncommon for individuals to do business in the fruit party.

"Boss, this is Shiyuan Trading Company."

Lin Shi recruited a few people, and before the store opened, he came to Shiyuan Trading Company.

"Is your boss here? I have a big business to discuss."

The people led by Lin Shi entered Shiyuan Commercial Firm to inquire. The shop assistants heard that it was a big business, so they went to report it immediately.

"Hello, our boss is not here. You can tell me what you want first. If the quantity is small, I can make the decision. If the quantity is large, I will tell the boss for you."

Alchemist Yilai received Lin Shi, Lin Shi was very young, he was a little puzzled, how much business could such a young person do?
But thinking of his own boss, who was also very young, Fang Shiyi didn't dare to neglect.

"This is the list of goods. I came here because I heard that your price is low. You have to give me the real price."

Lin Shi asked someone to hand over the list. There were many items on the list, hundreds of kinds of goods, and the quantities were large. After reading it, Alchemist Yi understood that this was no longer his own decision.

"Sorry, you want too many goods, I want to ask the boss, can you leave a contact information, I will let the boss contact you?"

"Can't your boss come back now?"

Lin Shi frowned. He currently has limited time, and most of the time he has to squeeze out to study with Ke Gong, and it is definitely impossible for Ke Gong to leave contact information for them.

"I'm sorry, our boss won't be back for a while. If you are busy, you can make an appointment. Our boss will wait for you."

Alchemist nodded immediately, he was very aware of his boss' habits now, he was often away, and every time he came back he had to wait for a long time.

"Okay, my surname is Lin, the boss of Desheng Trading Company, I will come again at this time tomorrow."

Lin Shi glanced at Fang Shiyi and left after leaving his personal information. Fang Shiyi sent him outside the door and watched him leave before returning.

"Master, I went to Shiyuan Trading Company today, but I didn't see anyone, only his secretary received me."

When he came to Mr. Ke, Lin Shi immediately reported what happened just now.

"Ishihara Hiroshi is not here?"

Ke Gong asked, as for the secretary Lin Shi was talking about, he knew who it was.

"No, according to his secretary, Shi Yuanheng is often away." Lin Shi shook his head.

"often."

Mr. Ke is thoughtful, the general boss will pay attention to his own business, and often stay in the business to watch, to avoid being absent for important matters.

Lin Shi said that Shi Yuanheng was often absent.

If he is not in the firm, where will he go?

Or, is there anything that requires him to give up taking care of the business and do it?

Going out to discuss business?
It's possible, but not often, and if they go out to discuss business, Xiao Fang will definitely know.

Ke Gong's mind became active again.

However, the results of Alchemist Yi's investigation of Shi Yuanheng have not yet been delivered, and after the results are delivered, there will be more clues to analyze.

"Let's study first."

Ke Gong suppressed the thoughts in his heart and continued to teach Lin Shi what he hadn't taught before. Lin Shi studied very seriously and worked hard.

His future work will be more important, and he may even receive important leaders, so he must improve his ability.

This is to be responsible to oneself and to the organization.

"Surnamed Lin, Desheng Trading Company?"

When Chu Lingyun received the news, it was four hours later. Someone came to the door with a list of goods. There were a lot of goods purchased, and the value was about [-] US dollars.

For such a big order, someone should be rushing to take it. If I'm not here, will he come again tomorrow?

The goods of Shiyuan Trading Company are indeed not expensive. Chu Lingyun's purpose is not to make money, but also to create the illusion of a prosperous business, so he has attracted many customers by relying on low prices.

In the end, they made a lot of money. After all, low prices are also profitable. If you sell at a loss, it will be difficult not to be suspected.

"Yes, boss, he didn't leave a phone number. I don't know if he will come back tomorrow."

Alchemist Yi replied in a low voice, Chu Lingyun waved his hand: "You go out first."

It doesn't matter whether he comes or not, but he will definitely come tomorrow.

Such a large business has not appeared inappropriate.

"Let Feng Yong check the owner of Desheng Commercial Company in the French Concession, surnamed Lin, as soon as possible."

After Chu Lingyun returned, he immediately sent a telegram to Liu Chengzhu. Feng Yong was patrolling the French Concession, so it was not difficult to find out such information.

Liu Chengzhu received the telegram and immediately contacted Feng Yong.

It was already late, but Feng Yong still found out the background of Deshengsheng Trading Company.

This is a newly registered firm, the owner's surname is Lin, and his name is Lin Yizhi.

Seeing this name, Chu Lingyun's eyes tightened slightly.

When he was in school, he and Lin Shi had discussed whether they should give themselves a name when they became adults.

In fact, the custom of writing in their generation has decreased a lot, and most of the people who actually started writing are those who were born before Minguo.

For example, the famous educator Hu Shi, his children did not start writing.

The two met and did not name themselves.

But Lin Shi said that if he wants to get up, he should be called Yizhi.

Could it be Lin Shi?
If it was Lin Shi, he must not go tomorrow, Lin Shi is too familiar with him, no matter how much he pretends, even if he faces Lin Shi face to face, he will be in danger of being betrayed.

It's not difficult to know if it's Lin Shi, just ask about his appearance, but you can't ask Alchemist Yi.

Fang Shiyi is a member of the Red Party, so it is very likely that he will report this matter.

Ask Feng Yong to ask, and in the morning of the next day, Liu Chengzhu sent the appearance and characteristics of the boss of Huasheng Commercial Bank.

Really Lin Shi.

Chu Lingyun burned the telegram and shook his head helplessly.

He had a premonition yesterday, but today it was verified.

He knew that there were people from the National Defense Agency, but he hadn't read the list. The Shanghai station was responsible for protecting them, not the wartime intelligence team.

Since it was Lin Shi, he definitely couldn't go there this afternoon, but he needed a reasonable reason.

"Xiao Fang, if Boss Lin is coming today, you can receive him. If he agrees, supply him at our lowest price. I have important things to go on a long trip."

Chu Lingyun called Fang Shiyi at noon, but he didn't tell Fang Shiyi the reason, there was no need for it.

But there must be a reason, and his reason is to see Tomotaka Hosokawa.

This matter is very important and can make him do it regardless of business.

"Boss, he wants a lot of goods. If I talk to him, will he agree?"

"Xiao Fang, you have to believe in yourself, ask him to pay a [-]% deposit, and then pay the balance after receiving the goods, that's it, I'm leaving soon."

After Chu Lingyun finished speaking, he hung up the phone, seeing that Hosokawa Tomotaka could not be in Shanghai and had to go somewhere else.

Hosokawa Tomotaka lives in seclusion in a temple. There are no people in this temple and it is very desolate.

Chu Lingyun had already found the place, and Hosokawa Zhitaka's reappearance in the future would explain why so many people couldn't find him.

Alchemist Yi was speechless, the boss hung up the phone, so he had to do as he did.

……

At Shanghai Station, Feng Qun stood in front of Chen Shu.

"Station Master, among the people who came from the National Defense Agency this time, one of them often went out and did not participate in the negotiations of the National Defense Agency."

"Who? Why didn't you participate in the negotiation?"

Chen Shu frowned. People from the National Defense Agency went to Shanghai, but asked them to take charge of security at the Shanghai station. Chen Shu was very angry about this matter.

Shanghai is now the territory of the Japanese, they were not allowed to show their faces, and the difficulty of secretly protecting them can be imagined.

If this kind of thing is done well, there is no merit, but if it is done badly, the punishment is huge. Chen Shu doesn't want to take such a task at all.

Speaking of which, Chu Lingyun's wartime intelligence team has more people and is more secretive, why not give them the task?
From Chen Shu's point of view, Virgos are eccentric and forced to give them the task.

"It's a deputy director named Lin Shi."

"It's just the deputy director. He didn't participate in the negotiation, what did he do?"

Chen Shu's face was full of displeasure, Feng Qun replied cautiously: "According to my investigation, he rented a shop in the bustling area of ​​the French Concession. Business."

　The second update, there is an update today.
