Chapter 1957

Mr. Huo's acquaintance in the Foreign Affairs Office is named Guan Anping. This person sent him a piece of news that is difficult to judge at the moment. The Foreign Affairs Office has received the notice from above, and it is estimated that the Joseon Crown Prince and his entourage will arrive in the next few days.

After arriving in Danzhou, the specific itinerary will no longer be made by the Foreign Affairs Management Office. This time it will be in charge of officials sent from Sanya. Guan Anping may not know the specific itinerary until Li Shu arrives in Danzhou -

—This is most likely due to the local hype in recent days that the itinerary has been noticed by the authorities, so they have adopted a different arrangement than in the past.

If that's all, it's obviously not good news for Mr. Huo. He didn't get the itinerary until the Joseon prince arrived in Danzhou, and it would be difficult for him to make a deal with his customer. After all, he had lied to him before.

I will get the itinerary before the crown prince of Joseon arrives in Danzhou,

But according to Guan Anping, the diplomat from Sanya seemed to be more interested in having fun. When he convened a meeting with the staff of the Foreign Affairs Management Office, he also took the initiative to ask if there were any fun places in the local area - not to entertain the North Korean prince, but

He wanted to experience it himself.

For Mr. Huo, this is undoubtedly an opportunity that can be exploited. This person may have the specific itinerary of the North Koreans. If he can contact this person directly, he may be able to buy exclusive information from him for money.

As for arranging a fun place to greet him, it's a piece of cake. Mr. Huo can just give an order and it will be ready within an hour or two.

Of course, if Mr. Huo wants to get to know this diplomat, he must go through Guan Anping, who provides him with this information. Moreover, this kind of matchmaking operation is definitely not free. He will definitely have to pay the other party for it.

A remuneration. And if there are more links in this kind of thing, there will be more risks. However, considering that this may be the only way to break the situation at the moment, Mr. Huo is unwilling to give up the deal, so he can only risk it and try it.

Tried it.

Mr. Huo immediately sent someone to send another five thousand to Guan Anping, asking him to arrange a meeting with the diplomat from Sanya as soon as possible - he knew that Guan Anping's purpose in specifying the diplomat's hobby was to make him

Spend some extra money yourself to get the joints opened.

The information has not yet been released. The money given to Guan Anping by Mr. Huo has already gone to 10,000 yuan. Whether the matter can be completed in the end remains to be seen. If it were not for the deposit of 30,000 yuan that he had received from Xue Zheng earlier, this would have been

He really doesn't dare to trade at a loss.

As soon as the money was sent, the other party accepted it readily. This proved that Mr. Huo's judgment was correct. Guan Anping made it clear that he wanted to make money from Anxin. Even if he had no information to sell to Mr. Huo, the money would still be

The charge was not less, and Mr. Huo had to give it away.

Mr. Huo estimated that since Guan Anping directly accepted the money, this matter should probably be successful, so he immediately ordered someone to prepare a high-end place to meet the other party. In fact, there are many such places inside and outside Danzhou City, but since

The other party is an official from Sanya, so he must have a higher level of vision, so we can't just find a similar place to send him off.

"I really can't bear to let my children trap the wolf!" Although Mr. Huo is concerned about money, he also knows that this kind of thing cannot be done without spending money. If you want to negotiate a business with these official figures, if you don't show it right away,

With his own strength, the other party may not be interested in giving him more opportunities to speak. He can only try his best to choose the highest-end and most expensive place in Danzhou so that the other party can feel his strength and strength in the shortest time.

Sincerity.

Although Danzhou is famous for its cultural and educational industry, it has been a seaport city since ancient times, with a large floating population. Nowadays, not only are there many scholars studying here, but there are also large agricultural development zones, attracting Many foreign businessmen come here to join the cultural and educational industries and plantations.

The development of various industries has also significantly boosted Danzhou's consumption level. In recent years, the number of restaurants, restaurants, hotels and other stores newly opened near Danzhou's urban area has even become almost the same as that in Sanya. Naturally, some of these are to cater to the needs of consumers. Some high-end places with exquisite decoration for high-end consumer groups.

Of course, this kind of business cannot be done only if you have money. You also need to have some local contacts and background. If you can have a reliable backend, then this business is still very pleasant to do.

The place Mr. Huo was looking for someone to book was just such a special place. This place is located on the seaside to the west of Danzhou City. If it looks like a private estate from the outside, it will not be open to the public. It is only open to certain people with special status, which means that ordinary people may not even be qualified to spend money here.

There are different opinions about the big boss behind this manor, but Mr. Huo has never found out the truth about who it is. But it is precisely because of this that he feels more reassured about this place. After all, there is no need to reveal the identity of the boss here. The business is booming, which shows that the backend is strong enough.

In Mr. Huo's opinion, the most commendable thing about this place is the environment, especially for an underground broker like him who doesn't want to show up in public and needs to maintain a sense of mystery to contact customers. This place can satisfy his various needs of hiding his identity. kind of needs, without feeling there is anything wrong with his strange requests. Of course, all of this has a corresponding price. As long as the money is in place, even if Mr. Huo has to lie in a coffin and have others carry him in, That won't be a problem either.

Whether you just want to eat and drink or want to have fun, it can be said that this place has everything you need. Mr. Huo thinks that since the other party clearly said that he wants to find a fun place, this should be the place. If the other party wants to talk business, this place The place is undoubtedly a very secluded and safe place. If the other party wants to have other fun after talking about business, there is no need to change the place.

As the saying goes, money can make people go around. Mr. Huo soon received a response from the money he threw out. Guan Anping asked him to arrange a car to pick up people near the Foreign Affairs Management Office later in the afternoon. Mr. Huo didn't dare to trust him. He also specially asked someone to rent a high-end carriage from a horse and carriage shop in the city - one with glass windows, cushioned seats and spring shock absorbers, instead of the one that was sent to pick up Xue Zheng. After everything was prepared, Mr. Huo went to the manor in Danzhou Bay and waited for his men to pick him up.

Guan Anping from the Foreign Affairs Management Office arrived as scheduled, and a young official appeared with him, who must be the diplomat he mentioned. When Mr. Huo saw the two entering the private room, he quickly stood up to greet them.

"Let me introduce you two. This is Mr. Tian Zhengtian from the Foreign Affairs Management Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This is Mr. Huo Feihuo, who runs a calligraphy and painting business in Danzhou. It is a rare opportunity to meet each other, and the two of you have become very close to each other." Guan Anping, as the intermediary, immediately introduced the two of them to each other.

"It turns out it's Mr. Tian, ​​I've admired you for a long time!" Huo Fei quickly bowed and said a few polite words to express his respect.

The young official responded with a smile and cupped his hands: "I heard that Mr. Huo is the host and invited Brother Guan today, so I came uninvited. What a nuisance!"

At this time, Tian Zheng was still accompanying Li Bo to visit Black Earth Port in Annan. Of course, the person who appeared here could not be his clone. The young official who appeared in front of Huo Fei was none other than Zhang Qianzhi, who is currently in charge of investigating the attack.

In the action plan previously formulated by the Ministry of Security, while implementing the first step, it has already conducted comprehensive monitoring of the Danzhou Foreign Affairs Management Office, which has the opportunity to come into contact with the North Koreans' itinerary. And the Ministry of Security itself has people working in this department.

, so they can know the outside world's reaction to the intelligence acquisition at the first time. People in the Foreign Affairs Management Office received quotes from all aspects, and the Security Department is responsible for investigating these guys who jump out, first eliminating those little gangsters who try to fish in troubled waters.

Then focus on investigating some big goals.

Of course, during this period, Zhang Qianzhi and Wang Baisuo had gathered the people in the Foreign Affairs Management Office to educate them, and even coaxed and threatened them into providing a list of underground brokers who had contacted them. And this Guan Anping could not withstand it.

Under pressure, after Wang Baisuo showed his bank account situation, he could only honestly admit that part of his income came from a certain big local broker in Danzhou. And the most important thing is that this broker had made a mistake in the past few days.

A deposit was paid to him in exchange for the itinerary of the Joseon Crown Prince.

The problem is that when the broker paid Guan Anping, it was earlier than the time when the Ministry of Security deliberately released the information about the intelligence purchase. In other words, before the market started to hype this matter, someone was already secretly purchasing information about it.

Information about the crown prince of Joseon.

This is really hard to find, and it takes no effort to get it. Zhang Qianzhi originally wanted to use a complicated action plan to confirm whether the opponent was lurking in Danzhou, but he did not expect that due to a strange combination of circumstances, the second move

Before it really starts, the investigation target has been confirmed through internal investigation.

Of course, if Zhang Qianzhi had not insisted on implementing this plan, the Ministry of Security might not have gone to great lengths to investigate the employees of the Foreign Affairs Management Office one by one, and it would have been difficult to dig out the clue behind Guan Anping in the first place.

, so this is not an unexpected gain. It is more or less the result of the investigation that comes naturally.

However, just like this, it is still impossible to confirm that the people who tried to acquire the information are the same group of people who organized the attempted attack in Changhua, so the Ministry of Security still needs to make further confirmation. And Zhang Qianzhi's second step was to create a

Authentic and reliable information sources are used to lure people who really want to buy information, but after Guan Anping was exposed, it seemed that he could save a lot of trouble in the middle and contact the other party directly.

So Guan Anping was brought up separately, and Zhang Qianzhi personally gave him instructions and asked him to serve the crime. As long as he could play a key role in the subsequent investigation of the case, Zhang Qianzhi would personally vouch for him, and he would only lose his official position afterwards.

If you resign, you will not be held accountable for other responsibilities, let alone serve a sentence in jail.

This is already the most ideal result for Guan Anping at the moment, otherwise the crime he committed would not be so easy to resolve. And he has no choice at all. If he does not cooperate with the Ministry of Security, it will be adding to the crime.

Maybe next month he will be sent to Black Earth Port to dig coal until he dies. Instead of spending time in jail and doing hard labor, he might as well cooperate with Zhang Qianzhi to recruit others, and at least leave himself a decent way out.

So under Zhang Qianzhi's guidance, after several rounds of exchanges of information between Guan Anping and Huo Fei, the other party was indeed lured into taking the bait, and in a daze, Guan Anping was willing to come out to meet with Zhang Qianzhi.

Zhang Qianzhi first borrowed Tian Zheng's identity, pretended to be a diplomat from Sanya, and came to meet Huo Fei in person to see where this person was. After meeting with Huo Fei, he could almost confirm that this was not the case.

The person who organized the attack in Changhua, because Huo Fei's left sleeve was empty, turned out to be a one-armed man. And among the group of people who planned the attack in Changhua, there seemed to be no one-armed man.

However, this does not mean that Huo Fei has nothing to do with that group of people. Since he found Guan Anping to buy information, this is already a huge suspicion, but Guan Anping said that this person is an underground broker who buys and sells all kinds of information.

, Zhang Qianzhi had to consider that Huo Fei actually played the role of a middleman in this matter. If Huo Fei was arrested directly now, it might alert the snake and let the real buyer hide, and think about it later.

It will be difficult to turn it out.

Therefore, Zhang Qianzhi must first use his current false identity to learn as much information as possible from Huo Fei before he can make a decision on the next step. And because of the prior preparation and Guan Anping's assistance, Huo Fei obviously did not

If there is any doubt about Zhang Qianzhi's identity, he will be regarded as a high-ranking official from Sanya.

Zhang Qianzhi had been dealing with various government agencies for a long time during his stay in Sanya, so it was naturally difficult for him to play the role of a diplomat. Moreover, after leaving Sanya this time, he had Tian Zheng, a real diplomat companion, who he used as a model for his imitation and deception.

It's more than enough for a layman like Huo Fei.

After meeting, Zhang Qianzhi was not in a hurry to talk to Huo Fei. Instead, he patiently continued to improve his character, commented on the decoration and business projects of the villa, and then took the menu at Guan Anping's suggestion.

Ordered food for this party of three.

As Huo Fei watched, he also felt that this "Master Tian" was very outstanding in his speech and behavior. This kind of temperament was often only seen in officials and was definitely not something that ordinary people could fake. At that moment, he thought that even if the deal couldn't be done, he could still do it.

Having the opportunity to make friends with such a person would be worth today's expenses. However, he really didn't expect that the identity of the person opposite was indeed a senior official, but he was not the diplomat he was looking for. And the other person came here.

The purpose is not to eat, drink and have fun, but to regard him as prey and to capture him at any time.
