Chapter 400 Transactions During the Meeting
Ye Shaohong already knew that Wang Tianfeng was going to Shanghai.
of course.
The information was not obtained from Dai Yunong.
It was Zheng Yaoxian who had just secretly told him.
Combining the lingering memories from watching "The Disguiser" in his previous life, Ye Shaohong also recalled this incident.
Wang Tianfeng, nicknamed "Poisonous Bee".
This name was quite famous in Shanghai for a period of time after the outbreak of the War of Resistance against Japan.
However, it only lasted for a short period of one or two years.
Soon, Wang Tianfeng's hidden identity and appearance were exposed.
He was forced to resign from his position as head of the action section of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Shanghai station and was transferred to a training class as an instructor.
It was also in the training camp that he devised and arranged the suicide mission.
This directly and indirectly dragged Minglou's family into a vortex of bloodshed.
Recalling this memory, Ye Shaohong was horrified.
He can't have too much contact with this "Fifth Brother".
It's not that Wang Tianfeng is a bad person.
Quite the opposite.
He was an extremely biased patriot, and that was precisely why Ye Shaohong was worried.
If Wang Tianfeng were transferred to Shanghai to serve as the head of the operations section of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Shanghai station, and something unexpected happened, this ruthless man would not hesitate to betray him if the benefits were sufficient. After all, he was even willing to sacrifice himself in his schemes.
Ye Shaohong, his newly sworn "seventh brother," would show no mercy when it came to betraying him.
on the other hand.
Since he already knows that Wang Tianfeng is at risk of being exposed, wouldn't getting too involved with him just be asking for trouble?
Thoughts flashed through Ye Shaohong's mind, and he shook his head without hesitation in refusing.
"Fifth brother."
"It's not that I'm not giving you face, little brother, it's just that my mission is rather special."
"Once you take up your post at the Shanghai station, you will know that the group I lead in Shanghai, although nominally under the Shanghai station, is actually a separate entity."
"They report directly to the department head at headquarters."
"So without the magistrate's consent, even though we are sworn brothers, we cannot have any contact in Shanghai."
"Even if we meet on the road, we should act as if we don't know each other at all."
Ye Shaohong had made his point very clear, and Wang Tianfeng immediately raised an eyebrow upon hearing it.
"Is that so?"
"Then it was my presumption."
"Seventh brother, please don't mind, I apologize to you first."
Aside from being a bit stubborn, Wang Tianfeng is actually a pretty good person.
He is different from others.
It was his own mistake, and he will never be ambiguous about it, much less try to shirk responsibility or cover it up.
After the shout fell, Wang Tianfeng picked up his wine glass and drank it down in front of everyone.
"I'm ashamed."
"In the end, it is I who have let my brother down."
"Well then, since Fifth Brother is about to take up a post in Shanghai, I can't just leave without showing my appreciation."
"I just recently acquired a batch of sulfonamides from the black market in Shanghai. It's not a large quantity, only about a dozen vials."
"I'm taking out half of it as a congratulatory gift from the younger brother to the older brother on his new appointment."
In the early years of the Republic of China, sulfonamides were definitely a form of hard currency.
It's no exaggeration to say that it's more valuable than gold.
Looking at the world today.
Only three countries—the Bald Eagle, Hanscat, and John Bull—have small-batch production quotas.
Even the Russian bears in the north haven't figured it out yet. The sulfonamides circulating in various government agencies are imported from these three countries.
Blacklisted.
Most of the sulfonamide drugs in circulation came from Hanscat and John Bull.
Even though the senior brothers and sisters whom Ye Shaohong swore brotherhood with today hold high military ranks and positions, they still cannot easily obtain such life-saving medicine.
Upon hearing his words, everyone at the table fell silent instantly.
"Good guy."
"Seventh Brother, you're really generous! Fifth Brother, why don't you thank him quickly!"
"Oh my, yellow amine, what a good stuff, Xiao Qi. Although I am the deputy district head of the North China region and have a lot of resources at my disposal, I don't have anything as good as this. Since you are willing to give it to Lao Wu, why don't you support me with a few as well?"
Pu Xiujuan, as the eldest sister, was a unique figure among the eight sworn brothers, being a woman.
Others wouldn't have the nerve to ask Ye Shaohong, their younger brother, for it.
She doesn't need to worry about it.
As Zhang spoke, Pu Xiujuan stood up, walked up to Ye Shaohong, and slapped him on the shoulder.
With a smile playing on her lips, even though she was asking for something, there was a certain irresistible charm to it.
Ye Shaohong was also helpless about this.
He actually lied just now.
He's only been in Shanghai under a new identity for a short time; he hasn't even had time to establish connections in the black market yet. How could he possibly be able to buy such an expensive commodity as sulfonamides?
The dozens of vials of sulfonamide he's currently hiding were stolen by Li Yunlong and He Jian from the homes of corrupt officials, traitors, and sellouts in Shanghai. He's willing to part with them to silence Wang Tianfeng.
This also serves as a reminder to him to avoid provoking him in the future.
Don't worry too much about yourself.
But what he didn't expect was that a few words from him would attract the attention of Pu Xiujuan, this strong and resilient woman.
His sworn sister.
This is someone who wields real power and should not be easily provoked.
"That's it, that's it."
"I am able to become sworn brothers with you all today because you think highly of me."
"I don't have the real power that Xiao Ba holds. All I have is this little bit of sulfonamide, which is enough to catch the eye of my older brothers and sisters."
"Here's what we'll do. I have a total of eighteen vials of sulfonamide. Besides the nine vials I just promised to give away, I'll keep two for myself in case of emergency."
"The other seven can be taken by that older brother or sister if they need them."
At this point, Ye Shaohong put on a heartbroken and sorrowful expression, which made Chen Ping'an, Ji Chengping, Pu Xiujuan, Xu Baichuan and the others burst into laughter.
"Look, look, Xiao Qi is heartbroken."
"Alright, you're the younger brother here. Even if we're taking something from you, we can't let you suffer a loss."
"Here's what we'll do: get me two vials of sulfanilamide. I have a spare safe house on the outskirts of Shanghai, where I also have some guns and ammunition stored. I'll give them to you."
Pu Xiujuan smiled and patted Ye Shaohong on the shoulder, thus smoothly concluding the deal.
"Then save one for me too."
"I don't own any property in Shanghai, but Seventh Brother, you've returned to Beijing this time, so you must be looking to secure some resources, right?" "I'll allocate a few of my weaponry guns for you, along with enough ammunition. That should be of some help!"
In an instant, the bigwigs at the table all made their own promises.
To save face, they deliberately let Ye Shaohong gain some advantage when making the deal.
This brought a smile to Ye Shaohong's face.
