Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

Chapter 709 Trading Information

Shanghai, Zhabei District, Morishita Restaurant.

The afternoon sun in Shanghai was still scorching. The restaurant was empty, and even the private room upstairs had only one table of guests.

Yun Mujie looked towards the stairs nervously, his expectant eyes like a wife waiting for her husband to come home.

Gu Yanming in the box was much calmer and just drank tea in silence.

I don't know how long it took, but then I heard footsteps.

Yun Mujie's face lit up with joy, and he saw two familiar figures appear at the stairs.

"Colonel Nagano, Colonel Kawasaki, this way, this way."

Nagano Cheng looked at Yun Mujie who was waving at the door of the box and saw a strange expression between his brows.

"Colonel Nagano, Colonel Kawasaki, you are finally here." Yun Mujie stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I have contacted Mr. Yamamoto."

"However, he seemed to be busy with something, and my guest was very anxious, so I thought of inviting you two to come over."

"Please don't blame me for being presumptuous."

Nagano Seiichi smiled and said, "Of course not. Mr. Yun is a friend of the Empire. How could we blame you?"

"However, I am a little puzzled. How could Mr. Yun, with his status, have access to the military secrets of the level you mentioned?"

"From what I know, Mr. Yun seems to be in the supplies business. I haven't heard Mr. Yamamoto mention intelligence work."

Yun Mujie explained: "Of course I can't, but the person I introduced to you two can."

"Since you are here, please come in and talk first."

Seiichi Nagano and Shunsuke Kawasaki looked at each other, and neither of them refused, and walked into the box.

"Colonel Nagano, Colonel Kawasaki, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Gu from Yamashiro."

"Mr. Gu, these two are the deputy head of the Supervisory Group, Colonel Nagano Shiro, and Counselor Kawasaki."

Yongye Cheng looked Gu Yanming up and down and said in a not-so-standard Chinese: "Mr. Gu, are you from Shancheng? Are you in Shanghai on business?"

Gu Yanming nodded and said, "Yes, I was ordered to come here to discuss the leasing of aircraft and pilots with the Americans."

Kawasaki Shunsuke said, "So, you are the special envoy sent by Yamashiro to Shanghai?"

Gu Yanming nodded and said, "You can say that I am fully responsible for this matter."

Nagano Seiichi frowned, pulled out his pistol and put it on the table: "Mr. Gu, I think with your status and power, it seems that you will not cooperate with the empire so easily. I want to know the reason."

"Reason." Gu Yanming sighed and said, "Do you know how high the price the Americans offered?"

"The price Shancheng spends now is not the same as leasing 100 planes, but the same as buying 100 planes."

"They are spending so much money to lease back a bunch of aircraft that are about to be phased out. They are misleading the country and the people."

"Since everyone is treating the anti-Japanese war as a business, of course I can do it too."

"You're lying." Nagano Makoto moved his wrist, picked up the gun and pointed it at Gu Yanming's chest and said, "Mr. Gu, I want to hear the truth."

Gu Yanming looked at the pistol against his chest and said calmly, "Colonel Nagano, we are talking about business now."

"Don't look at a businessman with a spy's mindset. I'm here with 100% sincerity."

Nagano Seiichi stared at Gu Yanming, slowly pulled the safety of his pistol and said, "Mr. Gu, you still have one chance. What do you want to do?"

Gu Yanming frowned and said, "Colonel Nagano, if you want to shoot, then go ahead."

"However, after the shooting, if you can give a suitable price, we can still do business."

"Click." When the trigger was pulled, there was a sound of empty fire, and there was no bullet in the pistol.

"Colonel Nagano, what do you mean by this? Do you think I, Gu Yanming, am a child?"

"It seems that Mr. Gu is indeed a qualified businessman who is willing to sacrifice his life for money." Nagano Chengyi unloaded the empty magazine and loaded the bullets into it one by one in front of Gu Yanming.

"So, let's talk about what you're selling." Nagano Cheng said, "Mr. Gu, you have to be careful when you speak. If I think something you said is wrong, the next time you're shot, it won't be a blank."

Gu Yanming smiled, opened his briefcase and took out two documents.

"Colonel Nagano, here is a document, a lease agreement signed between Yamashiro and the Americans."

"The other is the minutes of the meeting to form the New First Army."

"The Shancheng side received news that the Empire was about to attack Burma. In order to prevent Burma from falling, the Military Committee suggested recruiting 100,000 soldiers to form a new army to support Burma."

"Of course, I can't give you the specific military plan now. That's what we are dealing with this time."

"As for these two, you can take them back and study them to see if they are real or fake."

"But hurry up, I'm not always patient. If you're not interested, I still have to find the next buyer."

"The next buyer?" Kawasaki Shunsuke asked, "Mr. Gu, do you mean that there are still people interested in what you have?"

Gu Yanming smiled and said, "Colonel Nagano, Colonel Kawasaki, where do you think this place is? This is Shanghai, the largest intelligence trading center in the East."

"Do you think your intelligence agencies are the only ones here? Germany, France, the United States, Britain, and even the Soviet Union, all countries have them."

"Besides, if you are not interested in this thing, then the Minister of Transport sitting in the Plum Blossom Building must be interested."

"As far as I know, he is the richest man in Shanghai."

Nagano Seiichi asked casually, "Then why didn't you choose to trade with Minister Chen?"

Gu Yanming pouted angrily at Yun Mujie who was standing beside him and said, "Then you have to ask him."

"If Mr. Yun hadn't offended Minister Chen, I wouldn't have chosen you two as my first trading partner for this information."

Yun Mujie's face suddenly looked a little embarrassed, and Nagano Shiroichi and Kawasaki Shunsuke reacted instantly.

It was Yamamoto Masahei who used Yun Mujie as bait, but he was seen through by Minister Chen, and Mr. Yun was said to have been severely tortured.

Judging from the unhealed wounds on his neck and face, the punishment he suffered was indeed very cruel.

Nagano Shiroichi put down the documents in his hand and exchanged glances with Kawasaki Shunsuke. Both of them seemed to have confirmed the authenticity of these documents.

"Mr. Gu, since this is a business, I want to know how much you are going to sell it for?"

Gu Yanming stretched out his palm and said, "Fifty thousand."

Naganojo frowned and said, "Fifty thousand dollars?"

Gu Yanming laughed loudly: "Colonel Nagano, stop joking. This information concerns the life and death of 100,000 people. How can 50,000 dollars be enough? I'm talking about US dollars."

Three chapters are completed. It’s a bit late, but at least I caught up.
