C168 An Intricate Intelligence Campaign

Tanggu City had already been run by Xiao Letian like a iron barrel. In the countless warehouses in Outside the city and the manors set up by Trader, there were shadows of Xiao Letian's forces.

Even though many of the businesses were owned by cow-keeper or other merchants, they had all been secretly taken over by Xiao Letian. The whole of Tanggu's business circle belonged to you, and within it was your complicated situation. All of this had only one purpose, and that was to conceal Xiao Letian's true strength.

In one of Tanggu's cargo spaces, there were cotton, silk, linen, and imported velvet fabrics. This was a warehouse belonging to a famous cloth merchant in Tanggu, it was normal and normal.

However, in this ordinary warehouse, there was a secret door that was quietly pushed open from the deepest part of the wooden wall. The sound of wailing in fear came from the inside.

"Ah, grandpa, grandpa. I'm confessing. I'm confessing everything …" I will confess anything you ask! " The one with a frightened face was none other than Huang Liu's Housekeeper. In front of him was a group of black-masked Black Man looking at him sinisterly.

Housekeeper also didn't know why he was here. He only remembered that he was temporarily locked in the yamen's dungeon, and normally, he would be able to be released on the same day after paying the fines for such a small crime. However, he didn't know why, but he started to feel drowsy after drinking a bowl of water.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in complete darkness. There was not even a speck of light around him. He could not even sense a single strand of flowing air. Housekeeper was timid to begin with, but he found that he was tied up on the chair and was sweating profusely.

"Who?" "Who's here?" Housekeeper suddenly realized that there were a few barely discernible breaths beside him, which scared him so much that even his voice changed. Then a match was lit and a Western-made wind lantern was lit.

Looking at the mysterious person with a black veil covering his face, Housekeeper had peed his pants when he felt hot.

Without need for these people to do anything, Housekeeper shouted miserably, "I confess, I admit everything, you ask me everything, I'll tell you everything, I really haven't done any wicked things in my life, I burn incense and chant buddhism, I respect the old and I love the young, I will build bridges and mend the road …"

The several mysterious people didn't expect Housekeeper to be so cowardly. They looked at each other and relaxed. "We've already figured out your background. This tablet of yours isn't bad and you still have a bit of conscience. Therefore, we won't make things difficult for you. As long as you answer the question honestly …"

"Don't worry, I'll be honest. I'll be honest …" Housekeeper nodded as though he was pounding garlic.

"Tell us everything from the beginning to the end, why did Huang Liu attack the Industrial Zones? Who else was behind him? And who are they meeting up with, where are they hiding in the Tanggu … "

Obviously, Housekeeper hadn't received any training from Spy and didn't even receive any training on the defense against torture. After being slightly intimidated by them, all the food in their stomachs had been emptied.

Under Housekeeper's instructions, a person called Sun Sanhu surfaced. Yes, it was the steward that Fan Lian Eldest Brother and Fan Ru had brought. He was the steward of the Guangde in name, but his true identity was very suspicious.

In Housekeeper's memory, Sun Sanhu was hooked up with his young master a month ago. This self-proclaimed messenger of the Capital and his young master talked in private with each other for a whole day. After Sun Sanhu left, their young master seemed to have changed.

"Our Young Master used to read books for about two to four hours a day, but since that day, he has never touched a book again. More than once, he even said that High Scholar would definitely pass the exam. It was also from that time onwards that Young Master ordered us to spread rumors in the four villages of Tanggu. Currently, 90% of the rumors on the streets are actually made up by our Young Master … "

"grandpa, everyone, don't kill me. I have never done anything wicked in my life. They forced me to do this. Wuu …" "As he spoke, Housekeeper actually began to cry.

There was no longer any need for interrogation anymore. When all the information was gathered together with the information from the previous spies, they could finally determine that Sun Sanhu was the person in charge of the reverse forces in Tanggu City.

To be able to keep High Scholar in check meant that this guy had a close relationship with Qing Liu, and Wu Tie had tried his internal energy, so he was very close to the Red Sect Protector's faction, and the Red Sect Protector had a close relationship with the Royal Family.

This was a little strange, could this Sun Sanhu be a person who could step on two boats and get the support of both Royal Family and Qing Liu at the same time? Or had Qing Liu and the Royal Family already reached a secret agreement?

Walking out of the secret dungeon, Wang Huaiyuan took off his mask, lightly tapped the cloth beside him with his fist and whispered to Sun Steeler, "From now on, the people who are watching Sun Sanhu will double their manpower, and also carefully watch Jiao Si Er and the others. If Jiao Si Er also takes orders from Sun Sanhu, then it will be very dangerous …"

The scout at Wang Huaiyuan's side took his orders and left. At this time, the main character of the surveillance, Sun Sanhu, was in the inner chamber of the Guangde chatting with Fan Ru.

"old shopkeeper, the Northern Capital City is urging me again. Are you able to convince your brother or not? "This is the first time I've seen such a stubborn old man. I wonder what kind of bewitching medicine Xiao Letian gave him …"

Fan Ru looked at Sun Sanhu's gloomy face and could not help but feel a trace of coldness from the bottom of his heart. This manager was recommended by Housekeeper of Weng Tonghe's family. He was not a person that a small merchant could offend.

Sun Sanhu was very honest with old shopkeeper. He clearly told old shopkeeper that he was here to deal with Xiao Letian, but at the same time, he couldn't mistakenly kill the Rakuten, this golden egg chicken. In short, the only person who was familiar with the operations of the Rakuten was Fan Lian.

"Xiao Letian is something that the Capital City's Liu Shuang hates, but the silver that the Rakuten earns Liu Shuang is not something that they hate. What do you want your Wu Tie for? Give me the price, as long as he comes over and brings back Xiao Letian's method to earn money, then no matter what the conditions are, Liu Shuang will agree to it …"

"How many memorial archways do you want in your hometown? Does the woman in my family want to get a title? Or to be more practical, you should first push out two to three County Magistrates among your descendants in Fan family. This is a true benefit, my old shopkeeper you better work harder … "

Fan Ru's eyes lit up when he heard that. He patted the Table and said, "I'll go find that stubborn old man now, at worst I'll just die in front of him. I don't believe that he's that ruthless and will even throw away his own brother's life …" With that, the old man put on his fur cloak and walked down the stairs.

Sun Sanhu didn't follow them. He stood by the window on the second floor and watched as Wu Tie swept the snow all over the street. The snow was now much smaller and the northwest wind were also weakened.

Just when Sun Sanhu was planning his next move, a familiar figure flashed on the street. It was Jiao Si Er.

"Aiyo?" "This old guy is really lazy, what did you do in the tea house when Laozi told you to collect Xiao Letian's evidence?" F * ck, who doesn't know that there are three and a half people in the tea house on the corner. This old pervert must have gone to take advantage of the brothel again.

Sun Sanhu did not guess wrong, it was like this tea shop on the corner that laborers loved to go to, originally Jiao Si Er did not care, he was, after all, a famous gelatose in the Beijing, grandpa who could use all eight alleys to build a teahouse, drinking tea with those who worked hard too hard was too cheap.

But when he heard that the three women in the tea house were all extremely beautiful and coquettish, the old pervert Jiao Si Er couldn't hold it in any longer. Multi Girl was already a little tired of playing around. He didn't dare to touch Xiao Letian's inner chamber, and the rest of the girls were too ugly. Wu Tie hadn't been able to touch anyone for several days.

This time, the half-hidden door was indeed beautiful. Jiao Si Er had come back and forth three times already, and each time, the taste was different.

When Jiao Si Er walked out of the inner court refreshed, he turned around to leave and found that crowd was gathered in the hall. An old man was living in the middle of the hall for nothing.

"I, distiller's head, have lived for over fifty years and have eaten more salt than your food. "If I say it's yin soldier borrowing the path, then it's yin soldier. There's no mistake …"

After listening for a long time, he finally understood that distiller's head, who was in the crowd, was an old man who worked at South of the city's Villa, and now, he was talking about the hottest news of the past few days in Tanggu.

"I, distiller's head, dared to take on this job precisely because I have more guts than others. When I was young, I met a ghost wall in the graveyard. "Grandmother …"

"That night, just after I finished playing the third drum, I lay down to rest and heard the sound of footsteps on the main road. It was very chaotic, very soft, but very clear. When I secretly peeked at the wall, I realized it was a team of Ghastly Soldier …"

"Oh my god, I was so scared that my back was completely soaked, Ghastly Soldier's shiny bald head, it seems like all of them wore blue Clothes, and all they stepped on were Boots, the killing intent on all of their faces shot straight into the sky …"

"Foreign troops? "Sigh, your words are quite reliable. It really does look like the clothing of foreign troops that was brought up from Da Gu Kou five years ago. But my eyes are very venomous, I can tell that they are all Chinese's face, and not the appearance of a foreigner …"

The surrounding people were already dumbfounded by what they heard. This ghost story was much better than what it was told in the past. It didn't matter if they believed it or not; this kind of ghost story had always been people's first choice for entertainment.

"You guys didn't even know that yin soldier was only walking 200 steps away. All you could see was that the ghost door on the road was wide open and countless white bone chains flew out, silently waving in the air. Many bloody ghost hands also drilled out from the ground …" "Just like that, this team of Ghastly Soldier lined up and disappeared into the gates of hell …"

"At that time, I already knew that something big was going to happen in Tanggu. Look at the Little Wang Manor, the pestilence is here, this group of Ghastly Soldier is here to collect souls. Many of them are still gasping for breath, but their souls are long gone, waiting for the Bane Bane to flash, then the Underworld to open the door and accept them … "

At this time, no one questioned distiller's head anymore. Every time distiller's head was mentioned, there would always be a crowd of exclamations. In the end, even the three half-hidden women were lured out. They had to finish listening to the story before going into the meat business.

By the time distiller's head had finished his story, Jiao Si Er had finished two pots of tea and had eaten a plate of dessert. Walking out of the tea house, Jiao Si looked at the vast expanse of white Street and suddenly slapped his forehead. "I'm a pig's brain, didn't Xiao Letian tell me to deliver a letter to the foreigners?" "How could I have forgotten? What kind of broken memory is this …"

Xiao Letian planned to invite many foreigners to dinner tonight so that they could discuss the construction of the Industrial Zones. Jiao Si Er was assigned the task of getting Ma Xiu and Mike. The two of them lived in a villa built by the foreigners and were only ten minutes walk away from the tea house.

When Jiao Si was brought to Rest Room on the second floor by Yang Housekeeper in suit, Ma Xiu and Mike were playing pool. When Jiao Si saw that Master Yang did not dare to hesitate, he quickly knelt down and saluted.

"Greetings to the two masters. Xiao Letian of our Oceanic, Mr. Xiao, had me deliver the invitation …"

"Oh, you go first. Stand up. Wait a moment. This round, it's almost over …"

Jiao Si Er listened to the foreigners speak Mandarin that didn't have four tones, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, so he could only stand by the round table and wait patiently. However, when his eyes inadvertently landed on something on the Table, his old face immediately turned pale, and his back was drenched in sweat.
