Genius Agent

Chapter 44 Requires Capital

Standing by the window, Su Yuncheng remained silent for a long time.

He knew the harm that war could bring, but the sets of numbers the teacher on stage mentioned represented the impending cruelty for Su Yuncheng.

The people suffered greatly, and a large number of people died due to the various harms caused by the war.

To save the people and more compatriots, we need to prepare a lot of supplies.

Su Yuncheng's abilities are limited; he can't save that many people on his own.

He could save as many people as he could. He couldn't change the overall situation, but he could at least change the people he could see and control.

Previously, Su Yuncheng didn't value money that much, perhaps due to his grandfather's influence. His grandfather was very carefree back then, as long as he had enough money.

Not now, he needs to make money, lots of money.

"Editor-in-chief, you've arrived."

Upon arriving at the newspaper office, Huang Chuanming greeted him. Huang Chuanming had been having a very fulfilling time lately, and he really enjoyed his current training.

"Did you buy today's newspaper?" Su Yuncheng asked.

"It's been bought and is already on your desk."

"Okay, go and buy all the newspapers in English, French, German, and Japanese."

"All of them?" Huang Chuanming was taken aback. He did buy foreign newspapers, but only the major ones; he never bought tabloids.

"That's right, go ahead."

Su Yuncheng nodded. Last night's dream gave him insight into future economic trends, but that was the general trend; he needed to find out many details on his own.

Foreign language newspapers were his best source of information about the world.

Huang Chuanming left quickly, while Su Yuncheng slowly flipped through the newspapers he had already bought.

【Ring ring ring】

Not long after, the phone on the table rang, and Su Yuncheng picked up the receiver.

"Yuncheng, I've already spoken to the Central Police Station. As long as Durand's signature is on it, they'll release the goods immediately."

The call was from Lu Mingxuan. He had contacted a friend at the Central Police Station early this morning and delivered the money Su Yuncheng had left him yesterday.

With money and connections, things are done much more easily, and the Central Police Station immediately agreed to release the goods.

However, this required Durand's signature. After Martin left, Durand held considerable power in the police department, and this was his demand.

Everything must be reported to him.

Lu Mingxuan was very proactive; he also wanted to see how Su Yuncheng would handle Durand.

Durand is not so easy to talk to.

"Thank you, Brother Lu. I'll arrange it right away."

Su Yuncheng hung up the phone and dialed another number.

"Mr. Dubois, thank you for your help. Don't worry, I'll always remember what you asked."

Not long after, Su Yuncheng put down the microphone. He didn't need to see Durand in person; Dubois could take care of it for him.

Now Dubois is waiting for Su Yuncheng to help him get promoted to director and take charge of the education committee.

He will put his heart and soul into whatever Su Yuncheng assigns him.

In the afternoon, Dubois called to say that the matter had been settled.

Durant would never refuse a small favor; Dubois still has that much face to give.

"Sōsuke, go to the French Concession Police Station first..."

Su Yuncheng called the school and notified Horiuchi Sōsuke to pick up the goods. He would definitely send some to Durand, but he didn't need to send money directly; a nice gift would suffice.

Once he has the signature, the Central Police Station will immediately return the goods to him.

"Thank you, Brother Yuncheng."

Horiuchi Sousuke was very happy; he hadn't expected Su Yuncheng to get things done for him so quickly.

"Go quickly."

Su Yuncheng didn't say much. He put down the phone and continued to read the newspaper. He wanted to find a suitable way to make money.

You can indeed find a lot of things in the newspapers that can make money, but unfortunately, they all require capital.

Moreover, it requires a considerable amount of capital.

……

In Nanjing, the governor emerged from his camp outside the city with a smile on his face.

"Chief, shall we head straight back?"

Secretary Qi lowered his head and asked, "Today, the Director came to report to the Chairman. Judging from his expression, the Director's report was quite effective."

At least they received praise.

"Go back, go back right now."

The section chief nodded immediately; today's work report had indeed received the old man's approval.

He didn't achieve much at work; his main achievement was reporting on Grandpa Su's affairs, which brought him unexpected gains.

The old man not only remembered Grandpa Su, but also felt deep regret upon learning that Grandpa Su had long since passed away.

The old man himself said that he didn't admire many people, but Old Master Su was definitely one of them. Old Master Su was very accurate in his physiognomy and could predict the future. Back then, when everyone was optimistic about the stock market, Old Master Su was the one who predicted that it would be extremely unlucky.

Unfortunately, he didn't listen to Grandpa Su's advice at the time, which led to him losing so much money.

Knowing that Grandpa Su had descendants in Shanghai, the old man specifically instructed the director to take good care of this extraordinary person's descendants.

The director understood that the old man respected Old Master Su's abilities.

I just don't know if Su Yuncheng has learned these abilities from his grandfather.

If so, Su Yuncheng deserves his utmost cultivation.

"Send a telegram to Shen Mozhou, instructing him to invite Su Yuncheng to Nanjing as soon as possible."

Back at headquarters, the section chief gave the order directly. Secretary Qi was slightly taken aback, but immediately nodded and left.

It seems that Su Yuncheng was mentioned during the meeting between the section chief and the chairman.

For the section chief to want to see him directly, Su Yuncheng must have some influence with the old man.

"Teacher, a call from headquarters."

In Shanghai, Chen Yansheng brought a newly received telegram to report to Shen Mozhou.

Their radio station is turned on at fixed times, and they have been called from Nanjing for three hours, basically every half hour.

"The Chief personally ordered Su Yuncheng to go to Nanjing?"

After reading the telegram, Shen Mozhou's eyes widened, somewhat bewildered by the order.

Why did the Chief of Staff issue such an order?

Did the Director think that Su Yuncheng could handle the warship and weaponry project? No, Shen Mozhou immediately rejected that idea himself.

This is too difficult. Su Yuncheng doesn't have the ability. You can tell from the attitude of the section chief last time.

Recalling that the Director had previously asked him to inquire about Old Master Su's situation, Shen Mozhou understood that the Director's desire to see Su Yuncheng this time must be for personal reasons.

"Let's go to the newspaper office."

Shen Mozhou stood up. Su Yuncheng hadn't left work yet, but he had to carry out his superior's orders, so he would wait for Su Yuncheng outside.

He wanted to recruit Su Yuncheng into the Special Service Department, so he wouldn't frequently visit the newspaper office to see him.

If they frequently visit the newspaper office, and people find out about their relationship, it will cause trouble for Su Yuncheng.

Chen Yansheng has been there before, but it was part of normal business and he won't be going again in the future.

Shen Mozhou is experienced and won't make mistakes on such a small detail.

"Yes."

Chen Yansheng immediately nodded, and the two went outside the newspaper office. Before long, Shen Mozhou found a suitable place to wait for them.

The teahouse that Su Yuncheng had visited before was also the place where the Special Higher Police had previously monitored Xie Hanzhang.

This place is located on Su Yuncheng's only route home, and they will be able to find it whenever Su Yuncheng passes by.

"Teacher, I'll wait outside."

Chen Yansheng left on his own initiative, and Shen Mozhou did not stop him. He then sipped his tea in peace, preparing his words for inviting Su Yuncheng later.

His last encounter made him realize that Su Yuncheng was a very intelligent young man, and not so easy to get along with.

He used a fake identity last time, but it seems he can't hide it this time.
