The reason why Lao Jiang set the operation time at 12 o'clock the night after tomorrow was not only because Jian Yi's identity as a "secret agent" was almost exposed, but also because the amount of Huating's goods transaction was huge, and the contacts were all high-ranking government officials, including Bai Bai.
Including Qi Hong, Lao Jiang calculated the timing correctly according to the procedure and was in a hurry, but everything was ready.
With the IQ and ability of this "husband and wife team", this mission went as expected. , carried out smoothly in the plan.
In fact, the opium trade in this era was the same as today's cigarette trade.
It was a kind of "normal free trade."
However, a group of patriotic gun smoke dealers still maintained an indignant and passionate attitude against the opium dealers and continued to suppress them, which made the opium market more popular.
The transaction naturally formed a kind of shady "underground transaction".
The opium trade, although immoral, turned Britain's huge trade deficit with China into a huge surplus, enough to pay for Britain's tea imports from China, the production of manufactured goods for export to India, and much of the administrative costs of British colonial rule in India. .
All of these are visible and tangible to everyone.
Therefore, even though the opium trade was disgraceful and immoral, it was a pillar supporting the interests of the British Empire and must not be allowed to collapse.
Hua Ting also knew that although this move could not truly disrupt the opium trade in Shanghai, it could at least successfully bring down Bai Qihong.
Getting rid of this gangster who has stood in Shanghai for more than 20 years is Jian Yi's final mission.
At this moment, Hua Ting and Bai Qihong stood in the wind on the Shiliupu Pier of the Huangpu River, feeling surprisingly calm in their hearts.
Bai Qihong seemed to be in a happy mood and said with a smile: "Hua Ting, I originally wanted you, a girl, to marry a famous family in Shanghai, live the same life as your mother, and enjoy happiness," he At this point, there seemed to be a little bit of relief in the laughter, "But you look like a boy."
"Yeah."
Hua Ting responded calmly.
The position she was standing at this moment was exactly where Cai Bingrong stood before his death.
"I guess your temper can't be changed, so I'm going to train you like a boy."
Bai Qihong's navy blue robe whistled in the night wind, and scattered mud stained his robe.
Swinging his sleeves, he turned around with his hands behind his back, "You really didn't disappoint me.
I guess if I have another son, he won't be half as capable as you."
"It's just luck," Hua Ting said with disdain for his false praise, "Aside from my good marksmanship, everything else is just luck."
"Luck" Bai Qihong rarely kept a smile all night, "I am humble."
Hua Ting shrugged, "I don't believe it."
He lit a cigar, squinted his eyes and put his free hand on Hua Ting's shoulder.
Then he tilted his neck and looked at the scenery on the other side of the Huangpu River.
He gradually softened his tone and said, "I am getting old.
In the future, I will put all my The opium industry will be transferred to your hands."
The cigarette on his hand merged with the sandalwood scent of the beads on his wrist.
The scent of sandalwood mixed with the smell of tobacco made Hua Ting's head hurt.
"I believe that the best is better than the best.
Better than Lan, you won’t disappoint me.”
"You can now safely transfer your opium industry to my hands."
Hua Ting said with disdain.
She expected Bai Qihong not to speak.
He didn't fully believe her yet.
By the time he transfers all the opium industry to her, I'm afraid he will already be gray-haired.
Bai Qihong finished smoking the cigarette at just the right time.
When everyone in the warehouses arrived, Bai Qihong gave an order, and Ayao led dozens of brothers to open the warehouse door first.
At this moment, countless white lights from flashlights were projected on Bai Qihong's body, and with a loud gunshot, everyone present froze on the spot.
"Raise your hands, all of you" Everyone looked at each other.
Everything is in the plan of Jian Yi and Lao Jiang.
Look at the people they arranged for this "crow extermination" operation: the Major General Counselor of the Nanjing Army, Navy and Air Force Headquarters, the Councilor of the Executive Yuan, the Deputy Director of the Songhu Police Department, the Navy...
The commander of the fort, the deputy captain of the police detective team, and the chairman of the Shanghai Anti-Narcotics Committee lurked at the trading points of various opium warehouses.
In just a moment, Bai Qihong understood what was going on.

He turned his head and stared at Hua Ting, his eyes as sharp as if he wanted to crush her to pieces.
Hua Ting smiled in a good mood and slowly raised her hand after the order.
However, Bai Qihong was just as cunning as Jian Maosheng.
He did not raise his hands obediently, but waved his sleeves as a hint, and hundreds of men in black armed with heavy weapons suddenly sprang out from the grass.
Before the battle started, they fired first.
For a time, Shiliupu Pier was in chaos.
Hua Ting naturally joined this fierce gun battle.
There was no problem in targeting the man in black on Bai Qihong's side.
Even at night, she believed in her marksmanship and eyesight.
The victory in this gun battle was just It was just a matter of time.
But she suddenly realized why Bai Qihong was missing.
There were many shadows on the pier and the footsteps were chaotic.
She couldn't catch Bai Qihong's figure.
Could it be that he ran away?
Bai Qihong was very suspicious.
He didn't trust anyone, so he set up an ambush with more than a hundred people.
It would take some time to get rid of all these people.
As expected, he still stayed.
One hand.
When Hua Ting fired the last bullet, a sound similar to that of an engine suddenly broke into her ears.
A black old Jim car passed by at high speed among the grass not far away.
It's Bai Qihong's car.
When she broke through all the obstacles, sieges and ambushes, the familiar black old Jim sedan had already disappeared at the end of the grass.
Oh, even if he ran away, where could he go?
When the fierce gun battle ended, Jian Yi did not meet her at the Shiliupu Pier at the agreed time.
It was already more than twenty minutes past the agreed time.
According to her intuition, Jian Yi must have Something happened.
After leaving the aftermath of the warehouse to the deputy captain of the police detective team, Hua Ting returned to the villa alone.
Madam Jian was playing dominoes at a table with several maids, when she saw Hua Ting come in covered with travel dust.
She didn't pay much attention at first, but out of the corner of her eye she inadvertently caught sight of the bright blood stains on her clothes.
Madam Jian was so frightened that her hands shook and she pointed.
The cigarette pipe fell to the ground, "Oh Hua Ting, what are you doing?"
Several maids turned their heads, with horror in their eyes.
"Is Jian Yi back yet?"
Hua Ting went straight towards the stairs.
She wanted to go upstairs to get the bullets.
Mrs.
Jian held her hands tremblingly and could not answer for a long time.
Hua Ting intensified the sound of footsteps and asked sharply again: "Have Jian Yi come back yet?"
The order of the dominoes in Mrs.
Jian's hand was disordered, "I haven't come back."
After taking out the bullets, he went downstairs and bumped into Shi Yin'ai, who was also in a panic.
Before Hua Ting could speak, Shi Yin'ai grabbed her wrist and asked urgently, "Where is Jian Yiren?
We can't contact him.
It's been half an hour.

I'm afraid if it's any later, our people won't be able to guarantee his safety."
Safety" "I'm looking for him too."
Seeing Shi Yin'ai's panicked look, Hua Ting's heart sank.
Something really happened to Jian Yi.
"He's not with you."
Hua Ting's answer made her heart completely fall into despair.
"I'm going to find him."
Hua Ting withdrew her hand forcefully and had no time to talk nonsense with her.
She walked around her body and walked straight out of the door.
"What are you talking about?"
Mrs.
Jian was really panicked now, "What happened to my Jian Yi?
What happened to Jian Yi?"
However, no one paid attention to her, and Shi Yinai followed Hua Ting's footsteps and left Jian's house.
"You know where he is" "have no idea."
"Then where are you going to find it?"
"He is definitely in Bai Qihong's hands."
However, when she arrived at the Bai Mansion in the French Concession in Luwan District, the only person who greeted her was Mrs.
Bai.
Mrs.
Bai's appearance looked the same as usual.
She was wearing a dark blue silk nightgown with a tired look on her face.
She was obviously waiting for Bai Qihong's return at night.
"You guys, what's wrong with you?"
After seeing Hua listened to the bloody mark on her body.
No matter how calm she was, the coffee in her hand almost dropped to the ground.
"Bai Qihong didn't come back."
It seemed that his visit was in vain.
"Well," Mrs.
Bai didn't care about such an unfamiliar title coming out of Hua Ting's mouth.
She put down her coffee and stepped forward to look at her carefully.
"What's wrong with you?
Why is there so much blood on Hua Ting's clothes?"
"It's nothing.
Since he's not here, let's go first."
Seeing the tiredness in these worried eyebrows, Hua Ting didn't want to disturb her anymore, "You should rest early."
"Did something happen?"
"No, let's go because of love."
"Hua Ting" "Go to bed early."
After leaving the gate of the mansion, there was a moment or two of moonlight on the road, swaying coldly and lonely among the shadows of the trees.
She did not dare to determine the current situation.
No one can guarantee whether Jian Yi will live or die.
"Judging from the number of people Bai Qihong deployed at Shiliupu Pier, there are no less than 100 ambushes set up in other places."
"So what you're saying is," Shi Yin'ai stopped, "Jian is also in a bad situation."
Hua didn't say anything and continued walking forward.
