Chapter 1149 Looking for an opportunity
Li Zhiqun is struggling at work, and is being restricted everywhere, and is forced to do so. This time, when he comes back, he puts all his hopes in Shanghai. After all, Shanghai is a paradise for adventurers. As long as you have power and power, it is a huge treasure pot, and you can absorb endless wealth at any time.
Luo Xingchao couldn't help but feel a little regretful when he heard this. He tried to transfer Li Zhiqun back to Shanghai before, but the purpose of eliminating Wu Shicai was not achieved, but Li Zhiqun could not stay. Now he is still staring at Cha Yutang's disappearance case and continuing to investigate the Shanghai Intelligence Department. Thinking about it, it is really not worth the loss.
The two talked for a while, and Luo Xingchao dismissed. After he returned to the office, he felt that it was a bit inappropriate. To be on the safe side, he still had to sit in front of some work, so he immediately called Cui Yuanfeng to his office.
"This time we miscalculated. Wu Shicai did not bring down, but caused trouble. Li Zhiqun now asked me to find clues left by Cha Yutang. This is easy to say. I just want to cover it up, but I am worried that he will investigate whether Feng Sinian's identity is leaked. This matter has been investigated. Think about it carefully. Have there been a flaw in the past? It must be sure that there is no mistake!"
Cui Yuanfeng heard this and thought about it carefully for a while. After a long time, he slowly shook his head and said: "The work of inquiry is going very hidden. Qin San is the only one who directly contacts Feng Sinian. He is also the one who took photos of Feng Sinian. However, he is responsible for logistics, delivering food and cleaning. It is normal to contact Feng Sinian, and he should not have doubted him.
Besides, everyone knows that Qin San is ours. In the secret agent headquarters, there is no definite evidence, so who dares to touch him easily?
What I am worried about is that on the other hand, when I went to the black market to investigate Feng Sinian, I did ask some acquaintances, which may be a bit inappropriate. You said, will they..."
"This is a problem!"
Luo Xingchao said decisively, he stood up and walked around the room. He quickly paused and turned to look at Cui Yuanfeng, "Is the people you are looking for reliable?"
Cui Yuanfeng said uncertainly: "Although these people are old friends, they are engaged in black market business. They are jealous of money and forget about profit. How can they be accurate?"
Luo Xingchao said immediately: "You write down all the situations of these people, name, address, frequent activity location, etc. The more detailed the better. I will report to the intelligence department and ask them to take action as soon as possible to send these people to the concession, hide them temporarily, and after this gust of storm, send them out of Shanghai. If you are not tactful, then solve them. In short, you cannot leave any hidden dangers!"
The next morning, in an elegant room in Mulan Society, in the eastern city of Shanghai, several men in kimonos were gathering in front of the table, carefully observing a bluestone carving placed on the table, and their mouths were still making marvels.
This is a galloping horse, with its head raised high, its long mane flying, its front hooves soaring, and its figure is magnificent, just like a long roaring towards the sky while flying, with a realistic shape and lifelike shape.
Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but reach out and took it in his hand. His eyes kept watching it. He saw that it was light green, pure, slightly transparent, and had no cracks or impurities in his hand. It was cold all over. This was the best blue sky stone material.
"Kun Takano, your carving techniques are becoming more and more proficient. This horse is a rare fine product with concise shape, skillful and smooth knife skills and clear lines!"
Hearing Ning Zhiheng's unswerving praise, Takayuki Takano's eyebrows and eyes were bent.
"It's a great honor to be praised by Fujiwara Jun, but I spent two months on this work and took a lot of effort, and I am very satisfied with it."
After saying that, the smile on Takano's mouth could no longer be concealed and he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Takano Takano is a famous Japanese sculptor and a proud disciple of the national treasure-level master Kanda Yuyama. He has superb carving skills and is also a frequent visitor to the Makura Club.
Hiroki Ito, the calligraphy and painting master, also nodded and exclaimed: "Kun Takano, congratulations on completing such a good work. It's really great. I want to draw it down as a souvenir."
Speaking of this, he turned to look at Ning Zhiheng and continued, "Fujiwara's calligraphy skills are unparalleled, so I'll ask you to write a few words!"
Ning Zhiheng still agreed and said with a smile: "Dare not obeying!"
Takano Takano saw that the fine works he had worked hard for many days were recognized by everyone, and he was so excited that he smiled and said, "That would be great. At that time, the physical carvings and calligraphy and paintings will be a good story. Let's talk first. This calligraphy and painting belongs to me, and no one can compete with me!"
As soon as this statement was spoken, several other artists were quite supportive, and they all joked about Takayuki Takano. For a moment, laughter in the room continued and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Ning Zhiheng also enjoyed this wonderful moment. Putting aside the nation and position, it is indeed a beautiful thing to be intoxicated with these people who are obsessed with literature and art every day.
Happy times always pass quickly. After a long time of gathering, everyone left alone, but Ning Zhiheng made a statement and kept Takayuki Takano.
"Takano-kun, I haven't been together for a long time. If there is nothing wrong today, don't go back. Let's have a drink!"
When he heard Ning Zhiheng invite him, Takano Takano would naturally not refuse. Although Tomohito Fujiwara treats them and other artists approachable, these people know very well that this Fujiwara Jun is the financial backer of overseas artists, and is also a top aristocrat with a noble status. He and others must maintain enough respect and dare not neglect at all.
Takano Takano nodded immediately and agreed, "That's great, I'm just thinking about it!"
So his subordinates prepared exquisite wine and dishes, and Ning Zhiheng and Takayuki Takano raised their glasses in the room and talked about everything.
After three rounds of drinking, Ning Zhiheng asked: "Kun Takano, the last time Mr. Kanda came to Shanghai, I wanted to ask more questions, but unfortunately he suffered from eye disease and returned to China hastily. The time he spent together was too short. I wonder how Mr. Kanda recovered after returning to China?"
When Takano Takano heard this, the wine glass in his hand paused. He was originally smiling, but then he calmed down and said helplessly: "After returning to China, the teacher's eyes have not been very good, and he has not recovered well. He is no longer creating new works."
Ning Zhiheng also looked regretful and said, "Mr. Kanda is a national treasure master. It's such a pity. By the way, I heard that in addition to you, Mr. Kanda also has several proud disciples, one of whom is called Tetsuhei Ito, who is very famous in China."
Ito Tetsuhei! Takahiro Takano looked at Ning Zhiheng in surprise when he heard this name, and said, "That's true. Ito-kun was the first student to learn from his teacher. He has excellent talent in carving and is considered the senior brother of our disciples. Unexpectedly, Fujiwara-kun, you are far away from overseas and have heard of him."
Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly. He Siming had conducted some investigations on both sculptors before. Coincidentally, Tetsuhei Ito, the main sculptor in charge of carving printed steel plates, was a disciple of Kanda Yushan. So he quickly thought of Takano Takayuki and decided to make friends with Takayuki Ito through Takayuki Takayuki, which led to the scene of inviting Takayuki Takayuki today.
Ning Zhiheng smiled, and did not turn around again, and said directly: "Takano, you know. I like to make friends with talented artists the most. Tetsuhei Ito is quite famous in China. Of course, he has to get close to him if he has the opportunity. This time he came to Shanghai, which is a rare opportunity."
Takano Takano was stunned when he heard this, and then asked in surprise: "You said Ito-kun came to Shanghai? When did this happen? He didn't contact me at all!"
Ito Tetsuhei came to China this time because he was assigned by the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and had an important mission and naturally had to act secretly. Therefore, after entering Shanghai, he did not contact the outside world. That is, the Special High School is the intelligence department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He Siming was able to get in touch with this plan, and even other intelligence departments were unaware of it, let alone Takayuki Takano.
Ning Zhiheng smiled disconcertedly and said, "Kun Takano, you don't know that your senior brother came to Shanghai four days ago, but he has official duties, so it may not be convenient to contact you for the time being."
Takayuki Takano nodded suddenly, and then he was a little surprised. Although Ito Tetsuhei was a famous sculptor, he was not a person in the eyes of a powerful man like Fujiwara Tomohito. There must be a reason for being so much attention now, but he naturally did not dare to ask in depth.
So he asked, "Mr. Fujiwara, would you like to meet me, my senior brother? If so, I would like to introduce him to you!"
"Very good. He is working at Zhengjin Bank now. You can bring him Mulan Society. I am very interested in him and have the opportunity to discuss and communicate with each other."
"I understand, I will make arrangements as soon as possible!" Takayuki Takano nodded happily.
When Ning Zhiheng finished handling this matter and returned to Fujiwara Club, Yi Huaan knocked in and reported to Ning Zhiheng about the news that Luo Xingchao was conveyed, and finally said: "Muyu asked us to transfer those black market dealers as soon as possible. He was afraid that these people would not be strict and finally involved Muyu's team."
Ning Zhiheng immediately nodded in agreement. He was afraid that Li Zhiqun would know about Cha Yutang's disappearance, so he rushed back to Shanghai to investigate. Therefore, when dealing with Cha Yutang, he did not make too much noise like he did when dealing with Yaozu, Lu Tianqiao, and even Luo Zidong. Instead, he executed secretly, and asked Phillips to suppress public opinion and try to minimize the impact of this matter.
Because he knew very well that this operation was hasty and had many flaws. If a veteran like Li Zhiqun came to investigate, it would be difficult for the Shanghai Intelligence Department to cover up the operation.
