Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but chuckle as he said, "Let me finish! This time, the Military Intelligence Investigation Department is going to expand again, and the Action Section is going to add two more action groups. If nothing unexpected happens, I will become one of the officers in charge of one of the action groups."
I have already communicated with Deputy Director Huang and Deputy Section Chief beforehand, and they both support my decision to select my own officers. I can take all of you former subordinates with me so that I can carry out my future work effectively.
"Great! Haha! Captain, you're going to be a team leader! Of course we want to go with you! Haha, how about I get a team leader position first? I'm really confident in myself!" Wang Shucheng finally understood what Ning Zhiheng meant. Ning Zhiheng had been promoted and could take him with him. That was fantastic! He would be one of Ning Zhiheng's trusted men, and his relationship with Ning Zhiheng would be even closer. His future prospects would be obvious!
"Get out of here. Have you ever seen a second lieutenant as an action team leader? You're dreaming!" Sun Jiacheng said with a laugh.
Ning Zhiheng's words also excited him. As Ning Zhiheng's confidant, the smoother Ning Zhiheng's career was, the brighter his future would be. He felt extremely fortunate to be able to continue following Ning Zhiheng this time!
“Your statement is biased. It’s somewhat inappropriate for a second lieutenant to serve as the action team leader, but it would be much easier to manage if he were a first lieutenant. Half a year ago, wasn’t I the action team leader as a first lieutenant?” Ning Zhiheng said dismissively.
"Captain, what do you mean...?" Wang Shucheng asked with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
“In this case closure report, I will speak up for you. I will also help out Deputy Section Chief Xiang and Deputy Director Huang. Besides, you have made enough contributions these past few times. Your promotion to lieutenant is practically guaranteed. This time, come with me. You will take charge of an action team for me and keep the team in good control!” Ning Zhiheng said with a serious expression.
"Really? You really want me to be the action team leader? I was just saying, I'm not really sure about this!" Wang Shucheng was stunned by Ning Zhiheng's words.
With his abilities, he was able to be promoted to lieutenant in less than a year after graduation, leaving his classmates far behind, except for prodigies like Ning Zhiheng.
I can also become the military commander of an action team. This happiness came too suddenly. Let me calm down first!
“Old Sun, your rank has just been promoted, and it’s impossible for you to advance any further. So you’ll have to accept this setback this time. When the opportunity arises in the future, you can try to be promoted to lieutenant as soon as possible! Don’t worry, it won’t take long. I’ll arrange it for you!” Ning Zhiheng then turned to Sun Jiacheng and said.
"I'll follow the captain's instructions. I'll do whatever you say!" Sun Jiacheng felt warm inside when he heard Ning Zhiheng's words. Knowing that Ning Zhiheng would arrange the way for him in the future made him feel extremely at ease!
"And your team members, anyone you think you have a good relationship with and can use, you can bring them over. Team Leader Wei is my senior brother, so that's not a problem! Later, you can draw up a list for me so I'll be aware of what's going on!" Ning Zhiheng instructed.
Then he picked up the stack of land deeds and handed them to Wang Shucheng, saying, "Following the same approach as last time, sell these properties immediately and convert them all into pounds or dollars. Do it as soon as possible, and it doesn't matter if you lower the price a bit!"
Wang Shucheng took the land deeds and asked hesitantly, "Captain, the property market in Nanjing is still pretty good. If we lower the price, we can sell it quickly. Do you want to reconsider?"
“There’s a reason I’m asking you to do this. Let me tell you, if you have any assets, sell them off as soon as possible. Exchange all your fiat currency for pounds and dollars, and the same goes for your gold bars. Otherwise, it will be too inconvenient to transport them. The pounds and dollars will continue to appreciate, so the sooner the better!” Ning Zhiheng said, feigning impatience.
He didn't want to explain further, as it would only make things more confusing, so he simply gave orders and told them to carry them out!
"Understood, I'll take care of it right away!" Wang Shucheng quickly agreed. He didn't understand Ning Zhiheng's actions, but he always obeyed Ning Zhiheng without question!
After explaining everything, Ning Zhiheng told them to go home. After seeing them off, Ning Zhiheng returned to his room and, looking at the piles of banknotes and gold bars before him, took a deep breath.
He was going to the location where Dai Daguang had hidden his valuables, No. 12 Heye Lane, Youshang Street, tonight to retrieve the hidden gold. The sooner the better, otherwise, once the news of Dai Daguang's arrest spread, his lame cousin might have other ideas.
Seeing that it was only 10 p.m., he felt he still had plenty of time, so he bent down and began to carefully sort through the box. Most of the banknotes in the box were in French currency, with a small portion in pounds and US dollars, some gold bars, and even a jewelry box filled with jewelry and various gemstones.
He didn't have time to carefully count the legal tender. This year's legal tender had already depreciated by nearly 30% compared to when it was first issued last year, but it was still relatively strong. So much legal tender was not a small amount.
They simply counted out the pounds and dollars, totaling about ten thousand pounds, forty thousand dollars, sixty gold bars of ten taels each, and a box of jewelry. This did not include the largest amount of legal tender.
Ning Zhiheng opened the safe and put all the pounds and dollars inside, and there was even some gold bars that couldn't fit! Looking at the crammed safe, he couldn't help but worry. He never thought that one day he would be worried about not having a place to put his money. This safe was full of the most valuable and stable pounds and dollars, as well as his collection of portrait paintings.
It seems I must quickly exchange all these items for pounds or dollars, otherwise just hiding these banknotes will be a problem.
