After sending the telegram, Qin Chuan took Wu Guodong back to his office.

Xu Mingda, Liu Daoming, Wang Xiaoyong, Li Mingzhe, Qian Tong, file team leader Situ Hui, medical team leader Ye Lanqiao, Secretary Tao and other key cadres from the inspection office have all arrived and are waiting in his office

ri.

The archives team of the inspection office does not have much work, because there are almost no files that need to be kept confidential in the inspection office. So far, the archives only have confessions from people who have arrested cigarette dealers and smuggled prohibited items, and those confessions are still

They are all abbreviated versions that have been thanked a lot. There is no need to keep these things confidential.

The only files that need to be kept confidential are the files of their own personnel. The files of these inspection room personnel are very simple. Each person has a kraft paper file bag to hold them all, and a large safe is enough for storage.

Therefore, including the team leader Situ Hui, there are only two people in the archives team, and both of them are women. This team is also the team with the smallest number of people in their inspection room.

Fortunately, Qin Chuan's office is big enough, and there are many sofas enough for these people to sit on.

When Qin Chuan walked into the office, except for Xu Mingda who was drinking beer, everyone else was served tea by Secretary Tao and Situ Hui.

Looking at Xu Mingda who was drinking quietly alone, Qin Chuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Since the last time Qin Chuan gave his confession in the inspection room, Qin Chuan had talked to Xu Mingda alone once.

Not only did Xu Mingda not want to stay in Shanghai, he also tried his best to persuade Qin Chuan to leave Shanghai with him. He even quietly told Qin Chuan that his family had developed a relationship with the director of the fifth division of the Second Department of the Military Command.

According to the instructions of the Director of the Fifth Division, he is going to apply for the Army University, and then go to the Military Command Department. If Qin Chuan is willing, he can help match up.

Qin Chuan knew much more about the Director of the Fifth Division than Xu Mingda. He was very happy that Xu Mingda could get into this relationship, and even personally wrote a check of 200,000 to Xu Mingda.

It is convenient for him to further grasp the director of the Second Department of the Military Command Department.

However, Qin Chuan could not leave Shanghai, and he did not dare to have anything to do with the Director of the Fifth Division, because the Director of the Fifth Division also had another position, and he also worked part-time as the Deputy Director of the Secret Service.

If Qin Chuan had personal contact with the Director of the Fifth Division, it would be a big deal. It is estimated that Qin Chuan would inevitably be in big trouble in the future.

Xu Mingda drank because he was extremely depressed. He was very worried about Qin Chuan's decision to stay in Shanghai, but he couldn't and couldn't stop it.

Qin Chuan is very clear about Xu Mingda's mentality. Even Qin Chuan is very clear that once he blatantly "takes refuge" with the Japanese, not to mention Xu Mingda, most of the people in the inspection room will not follow this path with him.

, it is estimated that it would be good to keep one-third. This one-third of the people also include people from the Special Station, the Shanghai Intelligence Station of the Secret Service, Xu Enzeng, and people who not only hope to continue to lurk, but also hope to successfully break into

HD inside the enemy and puppets.

Qin Chuan took a deep breath and nodded slightly to everyone before walking to sit behind the desk in the office.

He picked up the beer cup that Secretary Tao had poured for him, took a sip of beer, and said, "Tell me about the situation."

Although it was only a few hours before Qin Chuan completed the task assigned to them, what happened in these few hours was enough to shock people.

Wang Xiaoyong, Li Mingzhe, Secretary Tao, and Liu Daoming reported to Qinchuan one by one. Wang Xiaoyong's report was simpler. According to the report of the intelligence team, after two o'clock in the afternoon, a large number of Japanese marines suddenly appeared on the streets in full force.

Barricades began to be built around the Japanese Marine Corps headquarters and Huishan Pier. It is said that the Hongqiao Airport security team killed two Japanese Marines.

Secretary Tao reported that at 2:30, she received a phone call from the Shanghai Police Headquarters Secretariat, informing her that this afternoon, a Japanese Marine Corps officer and a soldier drove a car and forced their way into the city.

Hongqiao Airport, blocked by defenders

Later, the Japanese took the initiative to open fire. During the melee, the Japanese officer was wounded and died. Before his death, the officer killed another Japanese soldier with his pistol. The superiors suspected that this was a repeat of the same old trick by the Japanese, who wanted to stir up trouble in Shanghai for them.

Making excuses for war.

Therefore, they are asked to strengthen the vigilance in their inspection room to prevent further provocation by the Japanese.

Li Mingzhe's report contained nothing of value. He just said that as soon as his action team arrived at the area between the concession and Hongqiao for deployment, they heard gunshots and grenade explosions from the direction of Hongqiao Airport. He was worried that their action team would cause harm to the Japanese and

The Hongqiao Airport security team hurriedly brought the action team back due to their misunderstanding.

It was Liu Daoming's turn. Liu Daoming cleared his throat and said, "Director, after you left in the afternoon, I took people to the French Concession to find real estate agents to help rent houses. We found a total of 162 large and small properties, all of which have been rented.

, we are still entrusting people to look for other properties to be rented, but according to them, there will not be many houses left for rent, and it is estimated that they will not meet our needs."

Qin Chuan looked at the team leaders and said, "I want to rent a house for you in the French Concession. Have you all told your own people?"

Several team leaders said excitedly, "Director, if you give me a subsidy, the brothers will naturally have nothing to say and are very happy. Most of them agree, but some people who have their own houses don't want to move into the concession. They want to ask if

Can I get rent money if I move?"

Qin Chuan shook his head and said, "Those who don't rent will not be paid rent."

Qin Chuan lit a cigarette and said, "What happened at Hongqiao Airport today, I believe all brothers can understand. A war in Shanghai is imminent. It will be very dangerous to stay outside the concession."

Qin Chuan turned to Liu Daoming again, "Old Liu, have all the procedures for these 162 houses been completed?"

Liu Daoming said with some fear, "Our general affairs team went out to see the house separately on the spot, and then went through the rental procedures on the spot. The rent was paid in one lump sum on the spot. However, people in Shanghai are very smart and they are only willing to sign the house once."

Two-year contract."

Qin Chuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well done. You have saved our inspection office some money. There may be a war in the next few days. Once the war starts, the rent will skyrocket. No matter how hard your general affairs team has worked these past two days,

Let’s try to rent more houses, and each of your subordinates will be awarded one hundred yuan this month.”

Liu Daoming was naturally happy to earn a bonus of 100 yuan for each of his subordinates. He stood up and thanked his subordinates repeatedly.

Qin Chuan had something on his mind and couldn't stay in the inspection room longer, so he told Liu Daoming.

"If you really can't find a house, you can go to the company run by Smith, an American, in the French Concession tomorrow afternoon. Although he hasn't rented out his newly developed property yet, there is always money that can't be avoided. You can give
