My Spy Years

  Chapter 128 Reporting work (recommendation ticket for monthly ticket collection)

  Peter is a native of Marseilles, France. Pete's father is a good friend with Xi Neng, the head of the investigation squad of the Political Department of the French Concession.

  Peter, who retired from the French Overseas Corps, is a libertine. The adventurous Pete came to Shanghai two years ago and joined the Political Department of the French Concession through the introduction of Xi Neng.

   This retired second lieutenant of the French army is tall and big, but he is not rude. On the contrary, he has a good conversation and is very popular with French wives and ladies in the French Concession.

   In just over a year, Pete was successfully promoted to the deputy head of the investigation squad of the Political Department of the French Concession.

  Before Cheng Qianfan joined the patrol house, he met Pete through Xiu Gongshen's relationship.

  Although there is a five-year age difference between the two, they quickly became friends under Cheng Qianfan's deliberate friendship.

  Money interests played a key role in the rapid development of their friendship.

  Pete, who has a deep background and great powers, has the means to get the items that are in short supply in the market, and Cheng Qianfan has the means to sell these in-demand items on the black market.

  The reason why Cheng Qianfan has the financial resources to prepare several safe houses for the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee, the Shanghai Red Party, and himself is that most of his financial resources come from the black market industry jointly operated with Pete.

  Last fall, Pete returned to France to get married. At that time, Cheng Qianfan was quite regretful.

  He thought that Pete would stay in France to marry a wife and have children, and would not return to Shanghai. Unexpectedly, this guy just got married and returned to Shanghai with his new wife.

  …

   "The goods are stored in the dock warehouse." Pete whispered, and then cursed, complaining that he had only left Shanghai for half a year, and the storage fee for the dock warehouse had doubled.

   "What is it this time? Wine? Perfume? Radio?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

  French wine and second-hand radios are the regular business of the two.

  Red wine is a luxury item, and under the name of fine wine imported from France, the market is in short supply.

   Not to mention perfume, it is the favorite of many ladies.

  Radios are also in short supply. Although they are second-hand radios, they are of good quality and are loved by many Shanghai residents who cannot afford new radios.

   "Secret." Pete said with a smug look on his face, "You will definitely be surprised by the goods this time."

  Cheng Qianfan punched this guy angrily, Pete just laughed complacently, but didn't say anything.

  This also made Cheng Qianfan even more curious about this batch of goods.

  Cheng Qianfan picked up the cigarette on Pete's desk, and skillfully put it into his pocket.

   "You robber," Pete yelled.

   "There are many Chinese cultural relics in the Louvre." Cheng Qianfan retorted.

   "Sorry, I didn't do that." Pete shrugged, "If I have the right to handle those things, I can give you a discount."

   "Asshole." Cheng Qianfan cursed, opened Pete's desk, and selected a perfume bottle from the bottles.

  Pete was not angry either, he just yelled, "Deduct from your dividend."

  Cheng Qianfan gestured his middle finger.

  …

   Coming out of Pete's office, Cheng Qianfan didn't go downstairs, but went to the office of Chief Inspector Tan Detai, who was also on the third floor.

"Peng Shuban, is Mr. Tan in there?" Cheng Qianfan walked into the book office office with the open door opposite the chief inspector's office, asked Peng Shuban, and then took out a perfume bottle from his pocket, "Authentic French products, from Got it from Lieutenant Pete."

  Cheng Qianfan felt that he would never be able to understand women's love for perfume. Before he finished speaking, he saw Peng Shuban grabbing the perfume bottle in his hand, his peach blossom eyes were shining.

   "Xiao Cheng is the best." Peng Shuban winked at Cheng Qianfan, and giggled when he saw that the young man was a little shy.

  She put the perfume bottle in the drawer and didn't even forget to lock it.

   Then Shi Shiran walked out of the office, turned his hips, walked to the door of the Chief Inspector's office, and knocked on the door lightly.

"who?"

   "President Qin, Officer Cheng Qianfan is asking to see you."

   "Let him in."

  Peng Shuban whispered to Cheng Qianfan, "Boss Qin is not in a good mood."

  Spit out a mouth shape: He (off).

  Cheng Qianfan nodded knowingly.

  …

   "Report to Mr. Qin, my subordinate Cheng Qianfan has returned from business in Hangzhou and is here to report." Cheng Qianfan saluted respectfully and said.

  Tan Detai got up from his seat, looked at Cheng Qianfan, "Peter asked you for a question?"

   "Report to Mr. Qin, Second Lieutenant Pete asked me about the whereabouts of Officer Heguan yesterday."

   "How did you say that?"

   "Subordinates tell the truth." Cheng Qianfan looked serious, "Officer He Guan was with his subordinates from 2:00 to 3:00 noon yesterday."

   "Is that true?"

   "The subordinates dare not hide it." Cheng Qianfan said, "When Police Officer He left, a neighbor saw it."

  Hearing this, Tan Detai took a deep look at Cheng Qianfan, finally nodded with satisfaction, and smiled, "Very good."

  Looked at him again, smiled and said, "Going out for a trip, you can really learn a lot, yes, very energetic, how is the task completed?"

   "Report to Mr. Qin, everything is going well." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, "Mr. Campbell has completed his inspection mission and has returned to France by boat. Before he left, he asked me to thank you for your careful arrangements."

   "It should be, Mr. Campbell is too polite." Tan Detai said with a smile, he knew that such a troublesome Campbell would definitely not say such good things, but Cheng Qianfan felt relieved when he heard that.

   "Have you met Your Excellency Xi Neng?" Tan Detai asked.

   "Not yet." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "The subordinates are Mr. Qin's soldiers. When the subordinates return from business, they must first report to Mr. Qin."

   "You, you." Tan Detai pointed at Cheng Qianfan, and yelled at him with a smile, "Your Excellency Xi Neng personally ordered this matter, I can't figure it out, so hurry up!"

Cheng Qianfan didn't leave immediately, he took out a box from his briefcase and put it on the table, "My subordinate picked up such a gadget in Hangzhou, but my subordinate doesn't understand it, Mr. Qin, you are an expert, you Palm my eyes."

  Tan Detai took it and opened it to see that it was a snuff bottle. He raised his eyebrows.

  He picked it up to look at the colors on the snuff bottle, and gasped in surprise, "Where did you get it?"

   "On a street stall in Hangzhou, two yuan legal currency." Cheng Qianfan raised two fingers.

   "You're lucky, boy." Tan Detai clicked his tongue, "Zhu Zhongyuan's snuff bottle, good stuff." He said, put the snuff bottle back into the box, and handed it back to Cheng Qianfan.

"Mr. Tan, thanks to your knowledge of the goods, this thing is like a pearl in my place." Cheng Qianfan's expression was extremely sincere, "I heard that this kind of thing can only show its splendor through a person of great virtue. Help your subordinates Do me a favor, nourish yourself."

   "You boy." Tan Detai pointed at Cheng Qianfan, "Crooked ways."

  Cheng Qianfan chuckled, "Isn't this subordinate trying to reap your blessings?"

  "Hippy smiley face, get out of here quickly." Tan Detai scolded, "Xiu Translator should have mentioned it to you, I'll just say a word, about the matter of the third inspection, you kid will have some snacks, if something goes wrong, you're the only one to ask."

   "Yes, my subordinates must serve wholeheartedly and live up to Mr. Qin's teachings." Cheng Qianfan looked serious and stood at attention to salute.

   "Go." Tan Detai waved his hand.

   "Yes, this subordinate is resigning."

  …

  After Cheng Qianfan left, Tan Detai played with the snuff bottle and chuckled.

This kid is clever, this snuff bottle is worth a lot, but it is not that valuable, it is worth more than one hundred French coins. After all, Zhu Zhongyuan is not a famous artist, and in Qin Detai's collection, this one can only be regarded as middle-of-the-road. Low grade.

  However, Tan Detai has always liked Zhu Zhongyuan's products, so this kid has a heart.

  Xiu Jishen wanted to promote his student to be a deputy inspector. Although Tan Detai reluctantly agreed, he was a little dissatisfied after all.

  Never mind, although this Xiao Cheng is young, he is sensible, and he has always been respectful to him.

  Tan Detai took out the magnifying glass from the drawer, carefully admiring the inner painting of the snuff bottle, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

   "Old fox, it's cheap for you." Tan Detai snorted.

   Thank you very much [Sui Feng Yin Ye z] for the reward of 500 starting coins, and thank you very much [777 Wufeng777] for the reward of 100 starting coins.

   Ask for favorites, ask for recommendation tickets, ask for monthly tickets, ask for rewards.

   Thank you.
