Back at home, Su Yu kept thinking. The intelligence transmission had gone wrong today. It was a pity that although he had set up an emergency contact method in Viper, it could only be used in a last resort.
This situation is just an accident and is far from being a crisis. Moreover, this intelligence is not the kind that is very time-sensitive; whether it is a day earlier or later is not important.
Moreover, tomorrow is the time I had arranged with Dai Daguang. I wonder how things are going with Dai Daguang these past two days? According to him, he should have found the items by now.
If all goes well, I can retrieve the jade from Dai Daguang tomorrow, and then meet with Wu Tianfeng on Wednesday the day after tomorrow. I will hand over the jade and the intelligence to him, thus fulfilling our agreement and also sending out the intelligence through his channels. It's a win-win situation.
Although intelligence agents are not allowed to contact each other privately in violation of the agreement, that depends on the specific circumstances.
The next morning, following the same procedure as before, Ning Zhiheng took Dai Daguang to the house where he had spoken to Su Yu on the phone four days earlier.
The telecommunications department had made preparations well in advance, running a dedicated line into the room and setting up telephones.
It was still 10:00 AM when Su Yu made the call on time.
"Old Dai, another four days have passed. How's the matter going?" Su Yu asked anxiously on the other end of the phone.
"Haha, Director Su, you can rest assured that I, Dai Daguang, can handle things properly. My men have already retrieved those two jade artifacts!" Dai Daguang said with a smile.
"The jade artifact is back! That's great, Lao Dai! I owe you a huge favor for this. Don't worry, you won't get away with it for nothing. You'll definitely get something out of it!" Su Yu said happily.
Old Dai really didn't disappoint him. Although it took two days, he still managed to find the item. Once this matter is resolved, given Takeda Kaede's temperament, his son should be able to return to his side smoothly, and the Su family will have an heir—a truly wonderful thing.
"Alright, Lao Dai, I'll go to your house right now and get the jade back quickly." Su Yu didn't want to wait a moment longer and was ready to come and get it immediately.
At this moment, Ning Zhiheng, who had been listening in, gave Dai Daguang a wink. Of course, he couldn't let Su Yu come to Dai Daguang's house, because if he did, everything would be exposed.
“Director Su, this is such a small matter, how could I trouble you? Here’s what I’ll do: I’ll deliver the things to your residence right now, so you won’t have to make the trip,” Dai Daguang said solicitously.
Upon hearing Dai Daguang's words, Su Yu considered for a moment. This matter needed to be kept extremely secret. Since his wife and servants were at home, it wasn't very convenient, so he said, "Then how about this: come to the coffee shop near my house right now. Hurry up, I'll be waiting for you in private room number three!"
"Okay, I'll be right there!" Dai Daguang replied immediately.
Dai Daguang put down the phone, looked at Ning Zhiheng and said, "Commander Ning, I said everything according to your instructions, you see!"
Ning Zhiheng nodded, indicating his satisfaction, and said, "Now there's only one last step left. Go see him in a bit, give him the two jade pieces, and if everything goes smoothly, I'll let you go home immediately!"
After speaking, he looked at Dai Daguang's clothes and appearance. Apart from his poor appearance, he could not see any flaws.
Ning Zhiheng drove Dai Daguang to the coffee shop where Su Yu had arranged to meet. Before getting out of the car, Ning Zhiheng handed two jade boxes to Dai Daguang and repeatedly instructed him: "Be careful, remember to speak naturally, and don't give yourself away!"
"Please rest assured, Commander Ning, I will definitely handle things properly and will not leave any loopholes," Dai Daguang assured him repeatedly.
Dai Daguang got out of the car and entered the coffee shop.
Kang Shundong, who had been sitting in the back of the car, said, "Is there anything wrong with Dai Daguang?"
Ning Zhiheng said with a smile, "No! Trust my judgment. Besides, the lives of his entire family are in our hands. He knows what to do!"
Upon arriving at the door of private room number three, Dai Daguang knocked and entered. Su Yu was already waiting inside.
"Old Dai, you've finally arrived! Quickly, let me see the jade!" Su Yu said hastily.
Dai Daguang handed over the two jade boxes in his hand, smiling as he said, "Director Su, you can rest assured about what I do!"
Su Yu ignored his words and quickly took the jade box and opened it. Inside was a jadeite sculpted jade with excellent quality, fine texture, and translucency. He then opened another jade box, inside which was a beautifully crafted seal exuding an ancient and weathered aura.
Although he had only heard about these two jade artifacts from Takeda Kaede and had never seen them in person, he still had a good eye. Both of these jade artifacts were very precious items, especially the family crest seal, whose pattern was the Takeda family crest. The items should be genuine!
Only then did he look up at Dai Daguang, nod, and say, "Have you cleaned up all the mess? Don't be wishy-washy, or it'll cause trouble later!"
Dai Daguang said with a smile, "Don't worry about that. The thief Cui Er has been dealt with. It's just that the cash and gold bars he stole have already been squandered and can't be recovered!"
Su Yu didn't take Dai Daguang's words seriously. He would only find it suspicious if Dai Daguang recovered all the stolen items!
Since it's a petty theft, how could such a person not be blinded by money and gold bars? Besides, they might even be one of Dai Daguang's men, lining their own pockets and having no intention of handing over the money and gold bars. The integrity of these gangsters is completely unreliable.
But none of that matters; the most important things have been found! Su Yu carefully put the two jade boxes away and placed them in a leather bag.
