Chapter 99: Supplies Have Been Secured

Who is this guy?

Anyone who can make Tengyuan Jintai feel wary is definitely not an ordinary role.

Threatening his position…

Tengyuan the old devil is already the head of the Songhu Special Agency.

If his position can be threatened by him, doesn't that indicate that within the Special Agency, Yugong Heren's status is slightly lower than Tengyuan Jintai's?

Moreover, behind him there must be a backer strong enough to shake Tengyuan Jintai's position.

Otherwise, Tengyuan the old devil wouldn't need to worry about these things at all.

We must quickly find out who this guy Yugong Heren is!

Suddenly.

Chen Yongren then thought of something else.

Could it be that when Tengyuan Jintai and Gaoliu Xiuji meet, they're just discussing how to deal with Yugong Heren?

Having learned this information from Tengyuan Linai's mind, Chen Yongren felt even more that it was time to give Tengyuan Linai a strict disciplinary lesson.

Otherwise, I would miss out on a lot of information.

Especially now, in this situation.

I can't see Tengyuan Jintai, nor can I contact personnel related to intelligence.

Even if I could make contact, if they don't want to discuss intelligence-related matters, I still couldn't learn the detailed content of the information.

To obtain fresh firsthand intelligence, I still need to start with the people around Tengyuan Jintai!

Thinking of Tengyuan Linai's inner thoughts, Chen Yongren suddenly had an idea.

The Japanese lesson ended quickly.

"Chen Sang, your language talent is truly beyond expectation; at this pace, you'll be completely fluent in Japanese in just a few months." Tengyuan Youzi looked at Chen Yongren with a hint of admiration.

Nothing else.

Chen Yongren learns too fast, and he also self-studies; although there were some problems at first, after correction he can immediately fix his mistakes.

In just a few days, Chen Yongren had memorized all the basic vocabulary.

Simple communication is no longer a problem.

As a Japanese person, Youzi never had this level of comprehension when learning Japanese.

Chen Yongren looked at Tengyuan Youzi and said, "All of this is thanks to Teacher Youzi's careful instruction; without you, I could never understand Japanese."

With the Language Master skill in hand, not to mention a little Japanese—even Navajo poses no difficulty for Chen Yongren.

Saying that is merely to make Youzi happy.

Upon hearing this, Tengyuan Youzi's face blossomed with a happy smile.

She really likes this feeling.

Being praised by Chen Sang, needing, will make her feel fulfilled.

The Japanese lesson ended.

Chen Yongren also began to speak of his future plans.

"Lady Linai, Lady Meijinzi, Youzi." Chen Yongren directly said, "Besides the Japanese lessons, I also have my own work."

Saying this, Chen Yongren paused and then said, "Furthermore, because your learning progress differs, the teaching should be targeted."

Upon hearing this, Tengyuan Linai blushed slightly.

Sometimes I don't understand as well as Meijinzi, so Chen Yongren deliberately speaks a bit slower.

"Otherwise, should we study separately from now on?"

"On Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Lady Meijinzi studies Chinese; on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, Lady Linai studies Chinese."

Chen Yongren then looked at Youzi and said, "Sunday, please trouble Youzi to teach me Japanese."

"Chen Sang, you don't need my help translating; can you manage?" Tengyuan Youzi looked worried.

"Simple communication is no problem." Chen Yongren smiled and added, "Besides, you can't always be by my side translating."

After a pause, Chen Yongren said again, "If that doesn't work, I'll call you right away to come help."

"Hmm…" Upon hearing this, Tengyuan Youzi nodded and said, "Alright."

Chen Yongren continued, "Of course, after you go home, you can discuss it with your family."

"If Tengyuan and Gaoliu the director don't agree, we'll continue learning as we are now."

"If they agree, Lady Linai can have a solo class tomorrow."

Gaoliu Meijinzi was a bit dazed, and after Tengyuan Youzi's translation, she pondered and then nodded in agreement.

Tengyuan Linai hesitated a moment, then also nodded and agreed.

The three women left Chen Yongren's residence.

Chen Yongren raised his hand to check the time; it was already 7:30 p. m.

Now is precisely the busiest time at the Splendid Endeavor Hotel.

Chen Yongren immediately disguised himself; this time he did not dress as a foreigner but as a mixed-race youth.

Just as Chen Yongren had guessed, the Splendid Endeavor Hotel was brightly lit and extraordinarily lively, as if hosting some kind of ball.

This is also a regular program at the Splendid Endeavor Hotel.

Chen Yongren swaggered into the Splendid Endeavor Hotel.

Inside the banquet hall, music and dance were peaceful; the dance girls, accompanied by the band, were wearing fiery red long dresses and performing a hot, alluring dance.

Opening his scanning eye, he scanned the coming and going guests, while also listening to their inner voices to gather more intelligence.

"'The Ugly Country and Riben have halted trade—could this be our opportunity?'"

"'Right now the situation in Gold Mountain is stalemated—this is a great opportunity to hoard cotton and cotton cloth for profit!'"

When did a godfather appear in the intelligence community?

Rumor has it that Japan still wants to buy warships; we must pay close attention to this issue.

Hearing someone thinking of their own little number in their heart, Chen Yongren couldn't help but laugh.

Suddenly.

Chen Yongren spotted a familiar figure on the dance floor.

Nolan looked in good spirits, holding a glass of wine and dancing on the dance floor.

However, Chen Yongren currently had no intention of contacting him.

He continued to watch the guests on the dance floor.

Suddenly.

Chen Yongren was drawn to a guest standing in the corner.

Name: Chen Dian.

Age: 43.

Gender: Male.

Nationality: China.

Codename: Lao Yan.

Current position: Owner of the Songhu Chen Clan grocery store.

Hidden identity: Red Party intelligence officer.

No second hidden identity.

Red Party?

Chen Dian looked annoyed, constantly checking his watch.

Chen Yongren's heart stirred, focusing his insight solely on him.

"I was really careless; I didn't clarify the situation beforehand, and the Ugly Country actually arrested those guys selling supplies on the black market, causing the investigation equipment to go missing!"

"The New Fourth Army is severely lacking supplies; I must quickly acquire some scarce materials."

"The soldiers are fighting in single layers, can't even get a meal, and many wounded soldiers in the field hospital are still waiting for new medical supplies."

"Even if I can't get those things, I must buy food to let the soldiers survive this winter."

A stream of thoughts appeared in Chen Yongren's ears.

Fourth master?

Need scarce supplies?

How convenient.

Young master I lack none of these scarce supplies.

Chen Yongren walked up to Chen Dian.

Suddenly someone appeared beside him, and Chen Dian grew wary.

"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm," Chen Yongren comforted: "I just want to discuss a business deal with you."

Business?

Chen Dian blinked, sized up Chen Yongren from head to toe with a hint of suspicion, and directly refused: "Sorry, I don't invest, nor do I partner in business."

"Sir, believe me," Chen Yongren said, not angry, smiling: "I guarantee I can solve your current difficulties."

Chen Yongren pretended to reach into his pocket, took a clump of cotton from the system warehouse, lightly stuffed it into Chen Dian's hand, then turned and left after speaking.

Looking at the cotton in his palm, Chen Dian blinked, watched Chen Yongren's disappearing back, and hurriedly chased after him.

"Hey little brother, wait for me!"
