Chapter 456 I’m just an innocent middleman

"Damn it, don't tell me that your suitcases are filled with a total of five million US dollars in cash, right?"

It was Cao Zhiqiang who asked this question, and the reason why he asked this was because after he entered the hotel and met Anping and Xu Chun again, he found that they were each holding a gray suitcase in their hands.

Considering what I said before that I would spend five million US dollars to go to Japan to meet with a mysterious person and trade the later data of the anti-artillery radar, that's why Cao Zhiqiang asked this question.

"No." Anping smiled slightly, "There are just some daily necessities in the box. Although there is some cash, it is all in Japanese yen, and the amount is not much. It is only 400,000 yen, which is probably less than two thousand US dollars. It is me and

Comrade Xu Chun’s business trip expenses.”

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhiqiang raised his eyebrows and felt that the number was indeed not much.

Because Cao Zhiqiang went to Japan this time and exchanged some Japanese yen in advance, but the amount he exchanged was a bit large, one million yen.

The current exchange rate of the Japanese yen to the US dollar is 227:1, so one million yen is a little more than US$4,400, not even US$5,000.

The exchange rate of RMB to US dollar is now almost 1.95:1, which is almost two to one.

In other words, this time when he went abroad to Japan, Cao Zhiqiang spent less than 10,000 RMB in exchange for foreign exchange, which was not a lot.

Although there are currency exchange limits for going abroad now, in fact, since most of the people who can go abroad at this time are companies going abroad at public expense, the proportion of companies going abroad to exchange for foreign exchange at this time is actually relatively high. Theoretically speaking, if you bring 100,000

It’s no problem to get the U.S. dollars out.

Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "Is it okay now?"

Think about it, although Xu Chun used some instrument to test this room and proved that there was no problem here and there was no bug reaction, after all, this is the room where Cao Zhiqiang has lived for a long time, so accidents are inevitable.

If Cao Zhiqiang really forgets something, he only needs to close his eyes and retrieve the information he needs in the dream space to recreate the memory at that time.

"Yes." Anping nodded, "Xu Chun and I are both your secretaries and work at Hongguang Publishing House, so it is normal for me to call you President Cao.

Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "Then my room is a single room with only one bed."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "Yes, that's him."

By the same token, when you call Xu Chun, don't call her Xu Chun or Comrade Xu Chun, just call her Xiao Xu."

Cao Zhiqiang couldn't help but curl his lips: "Please, this is a domestic hotel, why should we be so careful? We act as if we are spies."

"Can we talk now?" Cao Zhiqiang couldn't help but said.

"Let's not mention anything else." Cao Zhiqiang asked, "Come to think of it, you haven't answered yet. How are you going to pay for the five million dollars they want?"

After talking about some common tricks used by spies, Anping asked Xu Chun to rest in this room, and he and Cao Zhiqiang went to the newly opened room to rest, just in case.

"Isn't that true?" Cao Zhiqiang frowned.

Anping turned to look at Xu Chun, who nodded and said in Chinese: "Yes, President Cao is very fluent in Japanese. He is right."

From this we can see that you have already been targeted!

As far as I know, this room is where you live permanently, so the other party may have secretly installed a listening device here.

"So fast?" Anping asked in surprise, "You just read it once and remembered it all?"

"Understood!" Cao Zhiqiang looked at it again, and then returned the letter to Anping, "I'll remember it and give it back to you."

In short, Cao Zhiqiang alone exchanged one million yen, which he still felt was a bit small.

"Isn't this appropriate?" Cao Zhiqiang frowned, "Comrade Anping is fine with you alone, but there is also Comrade Xu Chun. She is a lesbian, so this is not good."

So just in case, if we chat in the future, we’ll still turn on the faucet here.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, pointed at his head and said: "I am a genius, photographic memory is a basic skill."

Xu Chun was stunned, and quickly said to Cao Zhiqiang in Japanese: "Yes, President Cao, I'm very good. But, do you really know Japanese?"

You don’t know these, right?”

Of course, although during this period, the amount of foreign exchange that can be brought abroad at public expense is relatively high, it is difficult to exchange RMB for foreign currency and bring it out. You can’t just change it if you want. It needs to be reviewed at all levels, otherwise it will not be approved.

.

"This is simple." Anping smiled slightly, "This time when I went to Japan, I brought a bearer check from HSBC Bank.

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang said, "Why, is it weird? Otherwise, how could I dare to go to Japan alone? Don't you know that I know about Japan?"

Anping nodded and continued: "In short, according to our previous speculation, it should be someone from that organization who sent someone to keep an eye on you, so we can accurately know your whereabouts, and then contact you based on your whereabouts.

Looking at Anping sleeping in the next bed, Cao Zhiqiang was speechless for a while, feeling that this was just asking for trouble.

Unexpectedly, Anping shook his head and pointed to the location of the bathroom.

Anping added: "The other party did not provide you with any contact information or contact location. He only said that he would find a way to notify you when the time comes. Is that right?"

Therefore, from this perspective, it is not wrong to say that Cao Zhiqiang has a photographic memory.

As long as we are sure we have obtained the information and are sure it is genuine, we can use a cash check to withdraw money from HSBC Bank.

After Cao Zhiqiang also walked into the bathroom, Xu Chun silently closed the bathroom door, while Anping gently opened the faucet.

As far as I know, you were targeted by a mysterious person without your knowledge, who gave you special information, and later called you to teach you what to do and how to continue to contact them, right?

"

Anping smiled slightly: "It's fine here, but if you go to Japan, I hope you can take us with you as much as possible. But my Japanese is not good, so it is best for me and Xu Chun to be by your side, and she can be yours and mine."

translate."

"Are you talking about Mr. Masashi Sada?" Xu Chun asked.

This was done just in case, so that Cao Zhiqiang could use subtle body language to remind them when it was inconvenient to speak.

"Awesome!" Xu Chun said in Japanese, "And your Japanese seems to be more fluent than mine. Where did you learn it?"

"It still doesn't work." Cao Zhiqiang waved his hand, "This is domestic, not foreign, what is there to be afraid of?

Anping was stunned: "Do you know Japanese?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled, turned to Xu Chun directly, and greeted in Japanese: "Hello, Secretary Xu! By the way, you can also speak to me in Japanese."

Cao Zhiqiang hesitated and walked into the bathroom.

Although this organization seems to be friendly to us at the moment, we must be wary of others, and it never hurts to be more careful."

Immediately afterwards, Anping took out a stack of letter paper filled with words and handed it to Cao Zhiqiang: "President Cao, this is information about me and Xu Chun. Of course it is information about our superficial identity. Please remember it.

In this way, after a lot of trouble, Cao Zhiqiang was finally able to go to bed in the next room.

Anping looked at Cao Zhiqiang in surprise: "Okay, I didn't expect you to have this skill? Can you learn Japanese by yourself? If I hadn't read your information and knew your identity and background, there would be no problem. Just because you suddenly know Japanese, believe it or not.

, the police will take you away for questioning."

So, Anping continued in the bathroom and explained some precautions to Cao Zhiqiang in detail. Most of them were small details, as well as some special gestures, expressions and eyes, and even the placement of chopsticks.

specific meaning.

Anping frowned and shook his head: "I really don't know this, but do you really know it? You only know one or two sentences, right?"

"Please memorize it as soon as possible," Anping said. "After you memorize it, destroy this letter before going to Japan."

Although I know that it was very difficult for people going abroad at this time, it is indeed rare to be so frugal.

It's the same when you go to Japan. When talking about important things, you must try to do it in the bathroom and turn on the faucet."

For example, Cao Zhiqiang's Hongguang Publishing House can theoretically apply for currency exchange, but the amount is usually very small. Normally, he will not be granted one million yen.

"Is that a pseudonym?" Cao Zhiqiang curled his lips, "By the way, I heard that you were seconded from the General Staff. Which department of the General Staff is that? The second or third department?"

Cao Zhiqiang then turned to look at Anping and said in Chinese: "I said hello to Xu Chun, no, Xiao Xu in Japanese. She praised my Japanese and asked me where I learned it. I said I am self-taught."

"Wait!" Cao Zhiqiang waved his hand, "You called me President Cao?"

Seeing Cao Zhiqiang's persistence, Anping and Xu Chun looked at each other, and finally shook their heads helplessly and stopped talking.

At first glance, you can tell that it is an instrument for searching for bugs, but compared to the flashlight-like thing of later generations, this thing is much larger, and it is also disguised, and it looks like a portable radio.

"It doesn't matter." Anping said, "Your room is a suite. Comrade Xu Chun and I can lay the floor outside."

Cao Zhiqiang looked at the content on the letter and nodded: "I understand."

"Of course." Cao Zhiqiang immediately replied in Japanese, "There is no problem with listening, speaking, reading and writing, and daily conversation is no problem."

Anping nodded and said: "President Cao, we know about your friendship with Mr. Sada and the specific process of your relationship, but we don't know that you can speak Japanese so fluently. This is our negligence. We always thought

, your communication with Mr. Sada is in Chinese."

After checking everywhere for a while, Xu Chun took off his headphones and nodded to Anping: "Safe!"

Therefore, letting Xu Chun stay while Cao Zhiqiang and Anping go to the newly opened room will be unexpected and naturally safer.

"What about the money?" Cao Zhiqiang lowered his voice, "Where's the five million US dollars?"

This time, it was also because of Cao Zhiqiang's special situation that one million yen in foreign exchange cash was approved for Cao Zhiqiang, which was in his suitcase.

Well, actually it’s not that Cao Zhiqiang really has photographic memory, but that after he has the audio-visual production dream space, he can recreate all the memories he has seen and heard in his dreams, which is equivalent to carrying a driving record with him.

The instrument is still comprehensive.

This can also be regarded as a special application of dream space skills.

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "Yes, that's right."
