Chapter 494: Yuan Gangxian, Full of Fire
Alright.
Chen Yongren nodded helplessly and said: "Since Uncle said so, I'll join them for a meal."
Seeing Chen Yongren's reluctance, Chi Mu Chengping said somewhat helplessly: "Chief, this isn't for me, but for your own future."
Chen Yongren curled his lip, unconvinced.
"They're all prominent figures in Jingdu; if you get on good terms with them, it will surely help your future," Chi Mu Chengping said earnestly.
"It's perfectly normal for two major families to strengthen their power through marriage."
"Since you enjoy the benefits and prestige your family brings, you should bear the corresponding responsibility."
Chi Mu Chengping spoke very directly.
"Hai, Chief knows; please rest assured, Uncle, I will sincerely attend this banquet," Chen Yongren said helplessly.
"Hai!" Chen Yongren replied offhand, then changed the subject: "When will they arrive? I'd like to prepare in advance."
A sincere matchmaking?
The one who needs a match is the Yuan Chief; what does that have to do with me, Chen Yongren?
Chen Yongren was merely halfway through, blowing up that bunch of damned things and sending them back home for free.
Forming a marriage alliance?
Go to hell with your yin marriage.
After all.
Upon arriving in Jinmen, it's not enough to just squeeze the little devils; using a Japanese identity to gather intelligence, assassinate Japanese, and deal with traitors is the real business.
"This matter is still undecided," Chi Mu Chengping smiled and said: "Don't worry, once the time is set, I'll notify you in advance!"
After a pause, he added: "Besides those big-family folks, there are also some elders in the clan; if you ever want to secure the clan chief position, you'd better put away those petty thoughts."
"Even if it's just an act, you need to pretend to be more obedient for me."
"Your personal strength is too weak; this is a good opportunity to win them over and gain their support."
"As for that woman Meisha Zi, no matter how much you like her, you must never appear in their sight."
Chen Yongren curled his lip, unconvinced.
Not supportive?
Get rid of everyone who doesn't support you; what's left won't they be supporters?
The little devils' tradition of overthrowing superiors must be carried forward.
Thinking that in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud; Chen Yongren said: "Then we'll talk about it when the time comes."
Suddenly.
Chen Yongren recalled something else.
Pei San.
Chi Mu Chengping had earlier painted a pie, and although Chen Yongren knew the outcome, the Yuan Chief wasn't clear about it.
Now is a good time to ask how it turned out.
"Right, Uncle, how's that guy surnamed Pei?" Chen Yongren asked eagerly: "How are its preparations? I can't wait to go catch those Military Statistics Bureau agents."
"This is my first mission since coming to Jinmen."
"Don't worry, I won't let you lose face!"
Hearing that, Chi Mu Chengping's face turned slightly unnatural, and he muttered: "I forgot to tell you—this guy suffered retaliation from the Military Statistics Bureau and is already dead."
"What? Dead?" Chen Yongren was somewhat surprised; "How could this happen?"
Immediately, he complained in an impatient tone: "That damn bastard, why couldn't he die later? I still wanted to personally catch a Military Statistics Bureau station chief to play with."
"What a useless piece of trash!"
Hearing that, Chi Mu Chengping burst out laughing and comforted: "Chief, don't rush; Jinmen should still have many hidden Military Statistics Bureau agents—no need to worry about not catching any."
"I can assure you, before long we'll uncover their whereabouts and let you catch them to your heart's content!"
Heh~
You little devil really dare to think that," Chen Yongren said.
"Since there's nothing else, I won't disturb Uncle's work," Chen Yongren said listlessly: "There's still plenty to do in the factory,"
Anyway, idle is idle; better to get the factory running soon and squeeze those little Japanese hard.
Chen the Great Benevolent Person's bone-scraping knife is already itching to be used.
Meanwhile, Chen Yongren headed home.
Yuan Gangxian was fuming over the mysterious disappearance of warehouse supplies.
"'The supplies are gone—I ask you, where did they go?' Yuan Gangxian pointed at the empty warehouse and flew into a rage."
When he first heard the news, Yuan Gangxian only felt it was absurd, but upon seeing the empty warehouse, his heart turned cold halfway.
How could hundreds or thousands of tons of supplies in the warehouse vanish overnight?
The staff nearby trembled, afraid to speak.
How would they know where the supplies went?
A whole warehouse of supplies—let alone theft, even a legitimate shipment couldn't be moved overnight, let alone silently, without a single sound.
Yuan Gangxian's face darkened to the point of almost dripping water.
The arrival of the Yuan Chief in Jinmen alone was enough to give him a headache.
And then this happened.
"'This must be kept secret—absolutely no leaks!' Yuan Gangxian glared at his secretary and gritted his teeth."
"'Hai!' the secretary hastily straightened up."
This matter involves too much; even without Yuan Gangxian saying so, he wouldn't dare leak it, or he'd surely be made the scapegoat.
Yuan Gangxian began to feel relieved, this batch of goods will only be shipped out next year when the ship sets sail, so he still has plenty of time to prepare.
Damn it!
Although the lost supplies can be repurchased.
But with this much supplies, the money I earned this year, I'm afraid I'd have to spit it all out and it still wouldn't be enough.
"Pay more attention to the black market situation lately; all goods entering and leaving Jinmen must be investigated thoroughly." Yuan Gangxian said in a low voice.
"Also, investigate all warehouses in Jinmen, and the usage situation of Jinmen trucks."
"To move this batch of supplies, one must necessarily have a complete transport fleet."
"Also, do not miss any warehouse, even if it's just a small room; it must be investigated thoroughly."
"These guys are very likely to have dispersed the goods into storage to confuse our sight."
"Investigate the merchants around the warehouses, ask them if there was any movement last night!"
"Such a large batch of supplies, absolutely cannot be moved silently and without a trace."
"Yes!" the secretary nodded while listening.
"Remember, these matters must be investigated secretly; must not leak even a word to the outside!" Yuan Gangxian said with a dark face.
"Yes!" the secretary hastily nodded.
The goods in the warehouse have all disappeared; he also realized the seriousness of the problem.
"Also, investigate the Black Dragon Society's recent activities." After a moment of silence, Yuan Gangxian said again.
This matter might be the work of the Black Dragon Society, intending to defraud the shipping company's funds using this opportunity.
After all, they also know the warehouse's location.
Although there is no evidence, we cannot help but suspect.
The Black Dragon Society, such an organization, is just a bunch of lunatics, also having an unclear relationship with the military; for money they can do anything.
"Yes!" the secretary nodded again.
"Also..." Yuan Gangxian said again.
The secretary looked at Yuan Gangxian cautiously.
"Forget it, that's all; go investigate these first, and tell me the results as soon as possible." Yuan Gangxian said, suppressing his anger.
