Chapter 730 The words are unfounded
Tang Youyou keenly discovered that there seemed to be unfamiliar faces appearing around Zuixianglou that she had never seen before. It seemed that she had been monitored.
So she came back to Zui Xiang Lou again, and stood inside the counter, quietly observing whether there were any other spies in Zui Xiang Lou.
"Youyou, who was that person Section Chief Guan Gu brought just now? They looked very intimate, was she his wife? Look at that Japanese woman, she has a great figure, big where it should be big, small where it should be small, hehe!"
"Old shopkeeper, please stop asking questions, or your wife might twist your ears when she gets home! Also, how can a man bring his wife to Zui Xiang Lou, and even ask me to go up and drink with him! Even though I, Tang You You, sell my art but not my body!"
The old shopkeeper blushed and touched his nose.
"Hey, I'm just saying that. Please don't tell that tigress in my house, or I'm afraid she'll skin me alive! By the way, Section Chief Guan Gu looks very weak. Do you want to make him some soup to nourish him? He takes good care of our Zui Xiang Lou. I heard that he has told everyone not to cause any trouble in Zui Xiang Lou."
Tang Youyou seemed to be thinking about something. Now Zui Xiang Lou had become the breakthrough point for Nakajima Chengzi, so if they couldn't find any suspicious points on Tang Youyou, perhaps in two days, they would find the points on the old shopkeeper or the cook.
Maybe, something can be done about Zui Xiang Lou.
"Oh, what are you stewing? If Section Chief Guan Gu wants to eat, just come back. By the way, the last time Section Chief Guan Gu asked his men to buy stewed pigeon, why did he order so many dishes at once? It was several times more than before?"
The old shopkeeper suddenly remembered this incident. At that time, Chief of Staff Koizumi received a lot of money from Heying Zhier, so he acted like a rich man and ordered all the dishes on the wall.
"Really? Although Section Chief Guan Gu often treated us to meals before, it was usually just eight dishes and a soup. How come he ordered more than twenty dishes at once last time?"
"I remember that the lady who ordered the dishes said that she got the reward money from somewhere. It seemed that it was given by Section Chief Kameda? Right!"
When the old shopkeeper heard Tang Youyou's detailed description and the name "Section Chief Kameda", he felt as if he had heard it somewhere before.
"Oh, you seem to say that?"
Tang Youyou lifted the door curtain and shouted to the fat and big-eared chef at the innermost corner.
"Old Fan, come out quickly!"
"Oh, I'm so busy, wait a minute!"
After a while, Chef Fan, eyes full of the smell of oil smoke, walked out quickly with a big spoon in hand.
"What's the matter?"
"Hey, do you remember the last time Section Chief Guan Gu sent someone to order food, he ordered a lot, and then the lady who took the order said that she received a reward from Section Chief Kameda?"
Chef Fan thought about it and it seemed to be true, and he was very busy that night.
"That's right, the lady is too stingy. She took the reward money but didn't even bother to give our cook a little bit! Ugh!"
After Chef Fan finished speaking, he saw that the two people had nothing to do, so he went into the kitchen to stir the big spoon.
"Youyou, how come this money is so easy to earn? When can we get the reward? I guess this money must not be earned easily. I can only feel at ease after eating and drinking it!"
"That's right, come on, old shopkeeper, don't stare at those Japanese women, or your tigress will eat you!"
The old shopkeeper's body trembled, as if the tigress at home was waving at him with a washboard.
"Okay, Youyou, if you have nothing to do, go with Caimai to Manager Liu's rice shop to buy some rice. Rice has been getting more and more expensive recently, and it seems that money has become worthless. Buy some more for future use!"
Tang Youyou sneered in her heart. It would be strange if these military notes were still valuable. Millions of military notes flowed into the black market every day, and were used to buy rice, gold and silver in bulk.
As the tide rises, so too will the prices in the black market go up. Wouldn't the prices of goods in legitimate shops also go up?
Although Tang You You really wanted to go to the rice shop, she was being stared at, so she raised her voice a few degrees.
"Old shopkeeper, why don't you go? Why do you always bully me?"
"Well, just consider it as helping out. Aren't you a friend of our boss? Just consider it as taking care of your own business. I can't spare the time. I heard that the price will increase by another 10% tomorrow!"
Tang Youyou pouted. Even though her heart had already flown to the rice shop, her face was still full of reluctance. She acted better than any big star!
"Okay, but I have to sleep at night, and you are not allowed to assign me any work then!"
"Oh, I know. Don't you usually take business based on your mood? Who can force you? Go ahead."
Tang Youyou carelessly called the shopping cart, hitched a carriage, and went to Manager Liu's rice shop.
The spies who were keeping watch at Zui Xiang Lou were also divided into two, following the carriage.
When they arrived at the rice shop, Caimai parked the carriage and followed Tang Youyou into the rice shop.
"Manager Liu, how is business today?"
When Shopkeeper Liu heard Tang Youyou's voice, he quickly looked up and saw that she came in through the main entrance, followed by the shopkeepers from Zui Xiang Lou, so he knew that she came to "do business".
"Thanks to you, it's not bad. But I'm getting more and more confused about the market situation. There's no drought or flood, so why is the price of rice changing every day?"
"Ahahaha, then you have to save more, and you will definitely make a fortune. Come on, give me 500 kilograms of rice, but you have to give me a discount!"
"Okay, we are all regular customers. Come in and have some tea. I'll have the guys load the truck for you!"
Tang Youyou followed Shopkeeper Liu into the inner room, while the buyer stood aside inspecting the goods and watching the clerks load the truck.
Shopkeeper Liu looked at the two sneaky Japanese soldiers outside the door and poured Tang Youyou a cup of tea.
"The two Japanese outside are really stupid. A grown man is standing in front of a toilet stall looking around! What's going on?"
"The squid has been contacted, and he was taken to Zui Xiang Lou by the Kwantung Army intelligence expert."
Shopkeeper Lao Liu showed a look of horror. Now that the Japanese had found Zui Xiang Lou, were they exposed?
"What the hell is going on? Is the squid exposed?"
Tang Youyou briefly explained the whole story, and Lao Liu finally put his mind at ease.
"So now we have to ask the Kwantung Army intelligence experts to shift the target of suspicion to Kameda Masao?"
“Yes, although it is a little difficult, it is our only way to rescue the squid and keep the intelligence station.
If the Japanese broke through the squid, or bypassed the squid and went directly from Zui Xiang Lou to the rice shop, I'm afraid the Peking Intelligence Station would be in danger!
So, I took the risk today to come here, just to see if you have any ideas? "
Shopkeeper Lao Liu nodded and said that although this was a bit difficult, it was not impossible to do.
"You continue to spread rumors in Zui Xiang Lou, so that everyone will subconsciously believe that the Japanese who ordered food that day received the reward from Kameda Masao! Deepen their impression!"
"no problem!"
