Chapter 89: Auspicious Abundance Warehouse

~8 min read 1,419 words

One by one, answers sprang up in Nolan's mind, but they were quickly denied one by one.

Could it be that he, too, is here for the trade?

Nolan suddenly realized.

If we're talking about the most valuable information these past few days, it's only the trade with Japan.

Agents from many countries are secretly investigating, wanting to know what Japan bought from us, intending to sabotage this deal to avoid harming their own interests.

Thinking of this, Nolan couldn't help but look at Chen Yongren.

【The equipment hadn't been at the Auspicious Abundance Warehouse for long.】

【He found me before the Soviet agents did; this is certainly no coincidence.】

【He must have a very powerful spy network behind him.】

【Perhaps even the high-ranking officials of the War Situation Office have been infiltrated by them.】

【Otherwise, how could they have obtained my real information, even knowing that I have a wife?】

After careful consideration, Nolan still decided not to take any risks.

After all.

Just the identity of a double agent is enough to plunge oneself into hell.

Who knows if there are still people loyal to him nearby?

Not just for oneself, one should also consider one's wife.

Hearing Nolan's stream of thoughts, Chen Yongren hadn't expected that merely scaring him a bit would cause this guy to start imagining things on his own.

This scanning eye skill is really useful; it actually displays the target's real name.

Even if the target uses some ridiculous alias, it's useless under the scanning eye.

In the future, I need to find chances to kill more Japanese spies, quickly upgrade this skill to unlock more scannable information.

"Sir, this doesn't seem like a place for conversation." Nolan took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down: "Perhaps we can go back to the room to discuss…"

"No problem." Chen Yongren nodded with a smile.

After all, this is a public place; some things A Ren't suitable for direct communication.

Chen Yongren noticed that the other War Situation Office agents, as well as Olga, were turning their gazes toward Nolan.

The two went back to the room one after the other and sat on the sofa.

"Rest assured, Mr. Nolan, I harbor no ill will; I only want to make friends with you." Looking at the slightly nervous Nolan across from him, Chen Yongren's smile was gentle.

"Believe that you have already seen my ability."

Nolan is already a double agent; it's perfect to use him to help spread propaganda, and later he can gather even more intelligence from both countries.

Knowing the warehouse where the Ugly Country and Japan conducted trade, Chen Yongren had already schemed to seize it.

The built-in system space seems able to hold any inanimate object.

Then let those little devils take over an empty warehouse and piss cat urine in it!

"Make friends?"

Nolan's heart twitched twice, and he couldn't help thinking, "Who makes friends like this?"

"Of course, I love making friends, especially friends who work in the espionage trade." Chen Yongren said without changing his expression.

Upon hearing that, Nolan immediately relaxed.

The person before him is not an enemy, but an information dealer.

When did Songhu have an information dealer with such capabilities?

"I have a client who very much wants to know the warehouse's detailed situation; according to my information, you know these." Chen Yongren said.

"Of course, I'll also give you a piece of information."

"Believe me, kid, this information is definitely very important to you."

Nolan thought for a moment and said: "This batch of equipment is in the International Settlement, Auspicious Abundance Warehouse."

Chen Yongren nodded slightly, signaling Nolan to continue.

Nolan then said: "A batch of military equipment for this transaction, due to the Japanese army increasing its offensive against China, has also seen a surge in demand for weapons."

"They are not satisfied with raw materials; they want to directly import machine tools to increase production."

"We originally planned to ship the equipment to Japan, but en route we encountered huge waves, and the cargo ship could only turn back to Songhu."

"The Japanese have big appetites; they ordered a total of 200 machine tools."

"With so many machine tools, won't it attract attention?" Chen Yongren asked.

Nolan laughed shamelessly: "That's their problem; we only handle selling the equipment to them, these considerations are not within our scope."

This kind of conduct is truly typical of an ugly country; Chen Yongren silently sighed and then said: "You are indeed honest."

"As a return, I will also give you a piece of information."

"What information?" Nolan asked curiously.

Chen Yongren said: "Earlier in the hall, there was a woman wearing a black dress."

Nolan frowned, thought for a while, and indeed there was such a woman, sitting in the booth behind him.

"Her name is Olga Johnson, just like you, she is also a spy of the War Situation Office." Chen Yongren paused, then continued.

"Her mission is to find the mole within the War Situation Office."

Upon hearing this, Nolan's heart tightened, and he immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

It must be that during this period, frequently leaking information to the KGB drew their attention.

"Sir, this information of yours is very important; it can be said to have saved my life." Nolan hastily stood up and gave a slight bow.

He is all too aware of the importance of this information.

Knowing in advance allows one to prepare ahead of time, avoid giving oneself away in the line of work, and greatly increase the chances of survival.

Nuolan asked, "How should I address you from now on?"

He didn't think that this person had gone around in circles just for a warehouse, to tell himself that the War Situation Office was investigating internal spies?

Chen Yongren smiled and said, "You can respectfully call me Godfather from now on."

Godfather, upon hearing this title, Nuolan's eyelids twitched twice, and he responded respectfully.

"Thank you, Godfather."

Hearing those two words from you.

Nuolan immediately understood Chen Yongren's meaning—nothing more than helping him publicize, that a well-connected information merchant would appear in Songhu.

In the future, any needs can be directed to him.

"You can go about your own business now." Chen Yongren said no more, rose, and left the room.

"Aolijia..." Nuolan sat on the sofa, murmuring the name.

As for that woman, there's no need to attend to her for now; just stay calm.

As for those companions asking about it…

This isn't exactly an excellent publicity method.

Nuolan suddenly had an idea, got up, and left the room.

……

To avoid attracting attention, Chen Yongren took the stairs directly and chose to leave the hotel through the back door.

Chen Yongren hadn't expected to gain this either; he could only hastily buy a set of ordinary black clothes.

Anyway, he wouldn't use this face again in the future, and he wasn't afraid of drawing attention.

Chen Yongren found a deserted alley, quickly changed into the black clothes he had just bought, then carefully applied some prepared potion to his face in front of the mirror, turning it waxy yellow, and finally stuck on a moustache at his chin.

After making sure his original appearance couldn't be discerned, Chen Yongren then proceeded to the Rui Feng Warehouse.

The warehouse's name sounds Chinese, but it actually belongs to Rui Feng Yanghang, whose major shareholder is the Chouguo Consulate, responsible for Chouguo's import and export trade in Songhu.

From the outside, it looks like an independent compound.

Two men in black stood outside the gate.

Because it was noon, about ten laborers in the courtyard were squatting on the ground, holding bowls and wolfing down their food.

Swaggering in would definitely not work.

Chen Yongren went around to the back of the courtyard and looked at the high wall ahead.

After stepping back a few steps, he took a running start and kicked off the wall to climb up.

After his body had been strengthened, the wall over two meters high posed no difficulty for Chen Yongren; he climbed up effortlessly, lay on the top, glanced around, saw no guards, and quickly flipped down.

He arrived at the back door of the warehouse.

An iron lock hung on the gate, which posed no trouble for Chen Yongren; he pulled a piece of wire from his pocket, bent it together, and inserted it into the keyhole.

Not long after.

Chen Yongren then heard a crisp "click" sound.
