Chapter 1726 Expansion (asking for double monthly tickets)
"There's a war in Europe. The Germans are attacking the Netherlands and Belgium, pressing on France. If a war breaks out, it will seriously affect the transportation lines and supply of goods from Europe to Shanghai for Jiujiu Commerce, which will have a great impact on the business. I came back just for this matter." Cheng Qianfan handed the sesame seeds to Bai Ruolan, stretched his body, and said, "I'll go see Peter later."
After hearing Cheng Qianfan say that he had something important to do, Bai Ruolan gave up and said, "Then you can do your thing. I'll take Xiao Zhima back to rest."
"Go ahead." Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly and pinched Xiao Zhima's cheek. "I think I will have to discuss with Peter all night tonight, so I may not come back."
"I don't want to bother with you." Bai Ruolan rolled her eyes at her husband, twisted her waist, and went back upstairs carrying Xiao Zhima.
"Haozi, drive and follow me to Pete's house." Cheng Qianfan said to Haozi.
"Yes, Brother Fan."
……
Outside the Cheng Mansion, in the corner.
"He's out. A car drove out of the yard, and Cheng Qianfan is inside." Fan Jinming said to Hu Sishui, "Captain, look carefully. Cheng Qianfan got in the car."
Two cars parked outside the Cheng Mansion, one in front and one behind, guarded the car that drove out of the gate and quickly disappeared into the night.
In the dark night, a car from the secret service headquarters soon followed.
"Take your men to keep an eye on this place." Hu Sishui said with a gloomy face, "See if the box can be shipped out."
"clear."
"Don't be silly." Hu Sishui said, "Be careful that several boxes will come out. Keep a close eye on each box."
"The captain suspects that Yu Lang is..." Fan Jinming said, "That can't be possible. Cheng Qianfan is personally visited by Mr. Wang..."
"You know shit!" Hu Sishui's face was gloomy. "You can't judge a person by his appearance. Maybe this most unlikely guy has problems."
"I understand." Fan Jinming said quickly.
"We can't just keep an eye on the box." Hu Sishui said, "According to Chief Dong, Yu Lang is seriously injured and may have to stay in Cheng's house to recuperate. We need to keep an eye on any strangers coming in and out, especially any doctors coming to Cheng's house."
"My subordinate understands."
Hu Sishui gave some more instructions before quietly leaving.
About an hour later, Hu Sishui appeared at No. 212 Huagenei Road.
……
"Brother Hu, I'm sorry to hear that you've come to visit me so late at night. Is there something urgent that brings me here?" Zhang Xiaolin came to the reception room and greeted Hu Sishui when he saw him talking to the housekeeper Sui Erliang.
Strictly speaking, Zhang Xiaolin looked down on Hu Sishui. When Zhang Xiaolin was already a powerful figure in Shanghai, Hu Sishui was just a horseman at the racecourse in the International Settlement. Later, he became the driver of Gu Baoyi, the owner of the Lido Ballroom.
He once fled because he was being hunted by his enemies, but later he climbed up to Ji Yunqing's high branch and married his goddaughter Xu Baozhu.
Not only that, Hu Sishui also became Ji Yunqing's disciple, so that Hu Sishui and Zhang Xiaolin were of the same generation within the Qing Gang.
In addition, Hu Sishui is now highly valued by Li Cuiqun and serves as the captain of the guard at the secret service headquarters, so Zhang Xiaolin looks at him with a higher regard.
Of course, the most important thing is that Hu Sishui is of use to him at the moment.
……
"Master." Sui Erliang bowed to Zhang Xiaolin.
"Brother Zhang." Hu Sishui also stood up and nodded.
Zhang Xiaolin snorted in his heart. He condescended to call Hu Sishui "Brother Hu", and this guy actually continued calmly.
"Thanks to Brother Zhang, I have completely offended Cheng Qianfan this time." Hu Sishui said.
"Oh?" Zhang Xiaolin immediately became excited when he heard it. He liked to hear such words.
Hu Sishui then told Zhang Xiaolin what happened at the dock today.
……
"I thought, with Brother Zhang's advice, I would teach Cheng Qianfan a lesson." Hu Sishui said indignantly, "Who would have thought that Cheng Qianfan would be so shameless and dare not give face to Hu like this."
He really didn't expect that Cheng Qianfan would dare to "violently resist" the search.
His original intention was just to embarrass Cheng Qianfan in public. In this way, he could give an explanation to Zhang Xiaolin and also establish his authority by stepping on Cheng Qianfan's face.
How much is your face, Hu Sishui, worth?
Zhang Xiaolin smiled slightly and glanced at Hu Sishui.
Although he had previously looked down on Cheng Qianfan, a junior, but after years of feuding between the two, he finally understood that this 'young Mr. Cheng' was actually quite difficult and tricky.
In fact, although he was unwilling to admit it in his heart, Zhang Xiaolin knew that Cheng Qianfan's power in the French Concession was becoming more and more solid. Coupled with this kid's relationship with the Japanese and Mr. Wang, this "junior" could actually compete with him.
Zhang Xiaolin doesn't dare to be careless when facing Cheng Qianfan. Hu Sishui is getting a little too arrogant now.
……
"Let alone your current status, Cheng Qianfan would be very respectful to you. You are performing official duties to arrest anti-Japanese elements, but Cheng Qianfan dares to be so disrespectful to you." Zhang Xiaolin snorted coldly, "This Jiangshan scoundrel is getting more and more rampant now!"
"That's right, what Brother Zhang said makes sense!" Hu Sishui slammed the table, "How arrogant! Cheng Qianfan is so arrogant!"
"The Japanese are so tolerant of Cheng Qianfan?" Zhang Xiaolin frowned and said.
"I get angry just talking about this." Hu Sishui said indignantly, "When Xishan Zhitai saw me, he pointed and gestured, and his nose was up in the air. But when he saw Cheng Qianfan, his face was full of smiles."
As he spoke, Hu Sishui spat, "The Japanese don't even think about it. Who does the peace and security of Shanghai rely on? It relies on our Jisifei Road and the reputation of Mr. Hu. Cheng Qianfan is nothing!"
"There's nothing we can do about it." Zhang Xiaolin sighed, "This little jerk from Jiangshan is always trying to curry favor with the Japanese. The little Japanese has never seen the world, never had a good meal, and was easily bought off by Cheng Qianfan's little tricks."
As he said that, he looked at Hu Sishui and said, "Brother Hu, this Cheng Qianfan made a big scene this time. He violently resisted the search and showed no respect for you, brother Hu. Are you just going to let this go?"
……
"Brother Zhang!" Hu Sishui glanced at Zhang Xiaolin, "Don't talk about this as if it has nothing to do with you. If it wasn't for helping you vent your anger, would I have torn my face with Cheng Qianfan?"
"Brother Hu, are you blaming me?" Zhang Xiaolin looked at Hu Sishui with a forced smile.
"Master, Captain Hu." Sui Erliang quickly tried to smooth things over, "Our common enemy now is Cheng Qianfan."
"This Cheng Qianfan is so arrogant." Sui Erliang said, "Putting aside other things, Cheng Qianfan violently resisted the search for anti-Japanese elements..."
"Is this really for the sake of face?" The housekeeper looked at the two of them and said sinisterly, "Or is it that this little jerk Jiangshan has a problem? Isn't it just a matter of a word from you, Captain Hu?"
