Chapter 1290 I don’t want to pay the money, but I want the information
On the way back to the Japanese safe house from the zoo, Saburo Iguchi looked at Ryosuke Hase who was driving and kept chattering.
"Mr. Hase, I need an explanation. The number you wrote on the note is not enough for the Republic of China people to sell technical information. We must obtain penicillin at all costs!"
Half a month ago, after receiving the phone call, Hase reported the matter to Tokyo. In order to obtain penicillin, the Japanese cabinet, which had always been stingy, made a rare act of generosity and allocated a large amount of funds.
As long as it is not excessive, Hase can decide on his own to bid, but the number he just wrote on the paper is far lower than the authority given by Tokyo.
Saburo Iguchi couldn't understand why Ryosuke Hase was so stingy when he had the opportunity to buy information with money. I heard that when he was in Shanghai, this man was famous for spending money like water.
But Hase Ryosuke never said a word and drove Jingkou back to the safe house. Tongsuo, Xing Hanliang, and Wu Sibao immediately greeted him.
"Your Excellency, Chief of Agency, Your Excellency, Iguchi."
"Go to the conference room, I have something important to announce." Ryosuke Hase got off the car and quickly walked into the safe house, his face expressionless.
When the three Tongsuo people saw Changgu's appearance, they knew that something big must have happened and hurried to follow each other, followed closely by Saburo Iguchi.
The group of people came to sit down in the conference room. Chang Gu reported the situation of the auction and asked everyone's opinions on the matter, especially Xing Hanliang. After all, he was Zuo Zhong's good friend.
When Tongsuo and Xing Hanliang heard that Zuo Zhong had come to Australia, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The original feeling of isolation and helplessness caused by going overseas was gone.
All the agents present looked at Xing Hanliang. Xing Hanliang thought for a moment and said: "Based on my understanding of Zuo Zhong, he will never sell penicillin to the empire, but it is possible that he will sell it to the Germans.
He is a standard nationalist who has no good impressions of the Red Russia and the underground party. He uses drugs to enhance the strength of the Germans and hold back the Red Russia, which is of great benefit to Shancheng.
If what I said really happened, then the information is most likely true. At the same time, selling penicillin to the Germans can also sow discord between the empire and the Germans. This is a plan to kill three people with two peach. "
"Yo Xi, what Xing Sang said is exactly what I want to say." Hase Ryousuke clapped his hands and scanned everyone with his sharp eyes: "So I want to ask you a question. I don't want to pay, but I want the information. What to do?”
As soon as Wu Sibao heard this, he immediately became excited. He was always trying to steal something from others. When he was working in the underworld in Shanghai, he had done similar things a lot.
He quickly raised his hands and shouted: "Sir, your Excellency, the head of the agency, we can rob the Germans again, but we must prevent the military commander from getting in the way."
Hase Ryosuke patted Wu Sibao on the shoulder and then faced Saburo Iguchi: "Iguchi-kun, what do you think? The last failure was because we ignored the existence of military commanders. This will not happen again this time.
Xing Sang was right. No matter how attractive the price we offered, Zuo Zhong would never give penicillin to the empire, so I filled in a number at random.
Of course, taking action is the last option. If the Germans are smart enough, maybe they will contact us without us taking action. After all, cooperation will benefit both sides. "
Saburo Iguchi always felt that something was not quite right, but he couldn't put his finger on it. Ever since they arrived in Australia, it seemed as if there was an invisible hand pushing them forward.
After a few seconds of silence, Iguchi suggested that they had lost too many men in the battle half a month ago. If the remaining men wanted to sneak attack the Germans, they would be unable to do so, and the Germans would definitely be more vigilant.
"I have already applied for tactical support from Tokyo, and the support personnel will arrive in Melbourne tomorrow." Hase Ryosuke was full of confidence and calculated how much reward Fat Tiger would give this time.
Intelligence can be exchanged for money, and so can well-trained intelligence officers.
People have to die anyway, and instead of dying in vain elsewhere, these people might as well contribute to his South American manor.
Tongsuo and Xing Hanliang watched the whole process coldly. Although they did not know Zuo Zhong's plan, the Japanese must have fallen into the trap without knowing it. "They" should stay away from the Japanese next to avoid being splashed with blood.

Mu Hyuk sat on the chair, and the room was dark. The occasional car lights outside the room passed through the window and crossed the wall, illuminating the ceiling hanging with crystal chandeliers.
"Tuk-tuk. Tuk-tuk."
There was a crisp sound as his fingers tapped on the table, and many scenes flashed through Mu Hye's mind, including the encounter half a month ago and the scene at the auction.
It is not difficult to guess what the military commander and Mr. Zuo had in mind. The winner of the auction will definitely be Germany, and the Japanese will definitely find a way to steal the auction items from their hands. But who said that one strain of bacteria cannot be divided into two? Where's the share?
Mu He raised the corner of his mouth. As allies, Japan and Germany share common interests in many aspects. The other party should be willing to exchange a sum of money for penicillin information and bacterial strains.
He reached out and rang the electric bell on the table, and a German agent quickly appeared. Muhe's cold voice immediately sounded: "If you find the Japanese, tell them that I want to make a deal with them."
The agents were ordered to leave and the room returned to silence. Muhe thought for a while and answered the call from the police chief of the German residential area.
It's not that Abwell has no arrangements in Australia. If the military commander makes the deal as agreed, then he can let the other party go. If the military commander wants to do what he did last time, Mu He sneered.
—
Three days later.
Zuo Zhong placed a suitcase in front of Mu Hyuk, Hase Ryosuke, and Iguchi Saburo, and then took out a test tube from it and showed it to the three of them, his tone full of bewitching.
"Please see, this is the latest strain of penicillin. It only needs one tube to achieve large-scale reproduction under suitable conditions. According to our technicians' tests, it is more effective than the current penicillin. The disadvantage is that it may Causes muscle cramps, vomiting, rashes, and a certain chance of allergies.”
Hase Ryosuke turned to look at Iguchi Saburo, wanting to hear the other person's professional opinion. Iguchi Saburo nodded slightly, indicating that there was nothing wrong with what Saushige said.
In fact, Zuo Zhong said that this kind of penicillin has no side effects, and Iguchi would just get up and leave. Japanese medical institutions have been engaged in research on penicillin and are very clear about its pharmacological effects.
Even high-quality penicillin produced by American pharmaceutical companies can cause allergies. Mu Hyuk knew this very well. He looked at the test tube with intense eyes.
Zuo Zhong chuckled, put the test tube back into the sponge storage area, and pointed to the documents and medicine bottles in the suitcase, indicating that these were samples, culture medium formulas, and mass production processes.
With the strength of Japan and Germany, with this box, they can realize the industrial production of penicillin in a very short time.
Jingguchi glanced at the suitcase greedily, but he knew very well that the Republic of China people would not give the suitcase to them, and Zuo Zhong's next sentence proved his guess.
"According to the last quotation, Deutsche has obtained all the information and physical objects of the new penicillin. Congratulations, Mr. Muhe, where is the money?"
Zuo Zhong smiled and rubbed his fingers, and Muhe nodded. Immediately, two German agents came closer carrying a wooden box. One of them opened the lid of the box, revealing a box full of pounds.
After blowing a whistle, Zuo Zhong picked up a wad of banknotes and passed them through his hands. A sweet clattering sound rang in everyone's ears.
Hase Ryosuke swallowed hard, his eyes almost turning red. How much land can be bought with so much money, **** rich German!
Mu He was very satisfied with the reaction of the Japanese and the people of the Republic of China, and he lost no time in making a request: "Germany has shown its sincerity. Mr. Zuo, you should also certify the authenticity of the strains and information for me."
Zuo Zhong chuckled and shook the pound in his hand: "I heard that your country has the Bernhard Plan, which is to produce counterfeit currency to disrupt the British financial order. You internally call this counterfeit currency white pound, right?"
The smile on Muhe's face disappeared instantly. Of course the Bernhard Plan existed, but it was top secret and only some of the empire's top officials knew about it.
The workers responsible for producing white pounds were all Jewish from concentration camps and were completely isolated from the outside world. How did the military commander know about this?
The scene fell into silence. Changgu blinked and his eyesight became clear again. It turned out to be a fake pound, so it would be fine.
Mu He was so shaken that he wanted to deny the matter. He didn't want Zuo Zhong to throw the banknotes back into the box, and ordered the little agent to lift the wooden box down, mumbling as if talking to himself.
"Even Swiss banks can't identify banknotes, so it doesn't matter if they are genuine or fake. The same goes for bacteria and materials. Mr. Muhe, do you think what I'm saying makes sense?"
Zuo Zhong, who showed his white teeth, looked like a man-eating monster in Muhe's eyes. The first batch of white pounds had just passed the inspection of the Swiss Bank a few weeks ago. The other party actually knew about this. Is there a military commander in the upper echelons of the empire? Mole.
Numerous speculations filled Mu Hyuk's mind, and he forced himself to defend: "I'm sorry, I don't know what a white pound is, Mr. Zuo, can we leave?"
"Excuse me." Zuo Zhong raised his right hand as a sign of congratulations and smiled very happily.
Mu Hye walked out of the courtyard quickly with his suitcase and his men, but a word from behind made him stumble and almost fall.
"Tell Mr. Police Commissioner outside to get out of here, otherwise the news that your country is building a counterfeit banknote factory in Sachsenhausen will appear in British newspapers tomorrow."
Zuo Zhong sent away the Germans who were escaping in a hurry, and slowly moved his eyes to the Japanese group. When he saw Saburo Iguchi, his smile suddenly dropped, and he shouted coldly: "You have light, come out and greet the guests."
"What are you doing? The two countries are at war without killing each other!"
The executioner at Jingguo, whose hands were stained with the blood of the people of the Republic of China, panicked and tried to stand up to resist, but was immediately pushed back to his stool by the spy.
After hearing the order, Gui Youguang walked out slowly, took out a dagger from the pile of wombat excrement, and thrust it hard into the wellhead's arm, causing the other person to scream in pain.
Zuo Zhong took a sip of tea and spat out the tea foam with a loud sound: "You are a doctor, not a messenger. If you want to survive, go find the Germans. It's just a good time to test the authenticity of the medicine. Don't think Zuo doesn't know about your deal. "
"Hmph! We'll meet again later." Hase Ryosuke pretended to be cruel, and hobbled away while supporting the mouth of the well. He made a number with his hand behind his back, reminding Zuo Zhong not to forget the promised reward.
When the Japanese walked away, Gui Youguang stretched his bald forehead in front of Zuo Zhong and said anxiously: "Vice-in-Chief, you won't really sell penicillin to the Germans and Japanese, will you?"
Zuo Zhong did not comment on this. No matter whether the medicine was real or fake, Saburo Iguchi would definitely not survive. In the next few years or even more than ten years, the other party would live in endless pain, and it would also affect future generations. If this beast had words for future generations.
