Spy Shadow

Chapter 135 Meets the requirements

Chu Lingyun was stunned. This was once one of the four major medical equipment suppliers in Nanjing. Even if it went bankrupt, now it can't even afford a ticket to return home?

"I remember that the ferry ticket from Shanghai to the United States only cost about one hundred dollars, right?"

Chu Lingyun said slowly that he didn't know the exact price of the ferry ticket, but he heard his father mention it once that a colleague of theirs had taken a boat trip to the United States in Shanghai.

"No, it's two hundred and eighty-five dollars." Smith sat up straight and corrected Chu Lingyun's mistake seriously.

"It's only been a few years, has it risen that high?"

Chu Lingyun frowned. In his impression, there was no inflation in the United States at this time, and their domestic economic situation was not bad now.

"It's not increased. I'm talking about first-class tickets. You should be talking about second-class tickets."

Chu Lingyun almost didn't curse. You've been so messed up that you can't afford a ferry ticket, and yet you still need a special class cabin when you return home?

No wonder he became like this, it's not surprising at all.

"Now can you tell me what you need me to do?"

Smith is not stupid. As soon as Chu Lingyun arrived, he understood that the other party must have something to ask him. He is now powerless and most people will not pay attention to him.

In fact, he still has a way to return to his country, and that is to seek help from the embassy.

But even if the embassy is willing to help him, it will definitely not be able to provide him with a first-class ticket. It will only give him the cheapest third-class ticket. He cannot tolerate staying in such a dirty place on the ship for a month.

"What I want you to do is very simple. You just need to act in a play. After it is completed, I can give you three hundred dollars so that you can return to the country."

Three hundred U.S. dollars, more than a thousand French currency.

When legal tender was first introduced, the exchange rate with the US dollar was 0.295, and one US dollar was equivalent to about three yuan and forty cents in legal tender.

This reward is not low, it can be said to be very high. When he was in Wuhan, the reward of 200 French currency made many people crazy. Chu Lingyun just asked Smith to act in a play.

If he didn't value his status as a foreign businessman, Chu Lingyun wouldn't have given him so much.

"No, at least a thousand dollars."

Smith shook his head. Chu Yuan, who was standing behind Chu Lingyun, was dumbfounded. He was not satisfied even after giving him three hundred dollars, but he opened his mouth and asked for a thousand dollars.

This is more than 3,000 French currency, the net income of many low-income people for decades.

"Farewell." Chu Lingyun laughed angrily, got up and left.

"Don't worry, if you give me the money, I can guarantee to complete your mission. I swear on my dignity." Smith couldn't let Chu Lingyun leave and hurriedly stood up and shouted.

Chu Lingyun turned around and looked straight at him.

This is a man who would rather live in poverty than work for his opponent for the sake of dignity. Chu Lingyun does believe a little of his oath.

"You clean up better and get rid of all the smell of a failed businessman. I'll come back to you in two days."

Leaving his phone number, Smith ignored Chu Lingyun no matter how many times he called her, and left directly.

Smith's asking price is high, but he is a perfect fit.

Another important point is that Smith is about to leave China, which will be more beneficial to Chu Lingyun. He can better protect the whereabouts of his parents.

It's okay to spend more money for his family, but Smith must be worth the price, and he is obviously not worthy of it now.

Smith was not Chu Lingyun's only choice. When looking through the information before, Chu Lingyun also paid attention to two people.

After leaving, Chu Lingyun immediately contacted the two people and made an appointment to meet at a time and place.

The first one is a small businessman. He is running his own shop, which is actually an antique shop. The business is okay, but the scale is not large and cannot meet Chu Lingyun's conditions.

The other one ran an English training school and was also a professor at Jinling University. His job was more suitable, but Chu Lingyun gave up immediately after seeing him.

This teacher had a sense of superiority towards Chu Lingyun. Not only that, after Chu Lingyun asked him to act, he immediately opened his mouth and asked for five thousand dollars.

The professor thought that Chu Lingyun was going to make a movie, and said that if he wanted a famous person like him to star in the film, he must be given such a price.

In comparison, Smith is more suitable.

It's a pity that he doesn't have enough image, so we can only wait and see if Smith can change his image.

Returning to the Military Intelligence Office, Loach was still busy with his team members. It was not easy to investigate the detailed information of one hundred and two people. It was impossible to find out in just a few days.

Not to mention the details of their hometown, master-disciple inheritance and other information, which would take even longer.

Liang Yu and Zhang Acheng began to look through the files again at noon. Chu Lingyun had assigned them a task. They continued to read the files, look for questions, and then talk after reading them three times.

It is not an easy job to read so many files three times.

The next morning, Chu Lingyun came to the office early and continued to look through the files that he had not read yesterday.

Chu Lingyun took the time to read through these files. The three times he requested were for everyone to read all the files three times to ensure that nothing was missing.

"Ring ring ring."

The phone on the desk rang. Chu Lingyun rubbed her eyes and picked up the phone.

"I'm Chu Lingyun, who are you?"

"Hello Mr. Chu, I am Smith. I have fulfilled your request. Now you can come over for inspection."

Chu Lingyun looked at the watch. It was only nine o'clock in the morning. In such a short period of time from leaving yesterday afternoon to now, Smith had made himself energetic and completely lost his decadent look?

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

Chu Lingyun was very skeptical about this, but after comparing the other two people yesterday, if there was no suitable candidate, he could only be temporarily chosen as the first choice.

However, if Smith dared to lie to him, he would rather slowly find the right person and would not have any dealings with this person in the future.

When he arrived at Smith's house, his door was open. He noticed the car approaching and immediately came to the door.

Smith was still wearing the same suit as yesterday, but the clothes had obviously been ironed and were bright and shiny. If you only looked at the clothes but not the person, anyone would think that he was a successful person.

What Chu Lingyun didn't know was that Wells only had this good piece of clothing left and the rest was pawned.

This is his last appearance, and he would rather starve to death than sell it.

This suit was custom-made by someone, with high-quality materials and first-class tailors. This suit alone cost him a hundred dollars.

Smith's hair has also been permed and is a bit curly, but he is very energetic. He also wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and is looking at Chu Lingyun with a smile.

My face has been cleaned up. There was still some stubble after shaving yesterday, but it was cleaned up today.

Without the smell of alcohol and bright eyes, if Chu Lingyun didn't know his details, he might have thought he was some big foreign boss.

His entire appearance fully met Chu Lingyun's requirements.
