The next morning, Ning Zhiheng went to work as usual, entered his office, and began to handle various official matters.
The Fourth Action Group was newly established and had many things to handle, but Ning Zhiheng was decisive, confident, and handled everything in an orderly manner. He also had a large network of connections within the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, so everyone gave him face.
The personnel, equipment, and training of the Fourth Action Group were rapidly deployed. In addition, his subordinates were all members of the Baoding Clique, who obeyed his orders without question. Therefore, the Fourth Action Group entered normal working status at an extremely fast pace.
This greatly pleased Zhao Ziliang, which was enough to show that Ning Zhiheng was not only a highly capable action-oriented talent, but also an excellent management talent.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Ning Zhiheng answered and came in. The door opened, and Wang Shucheng walked in.
"Shucheng, what's the matter?" Ning Zhiheng asked with a smile, gesturing for Wang Shucheng to sit down.
"Team leader, those properties have been cleared out. What do you think?" Wang Shicheng said, sitting down in the seat next to him.
"So fast! What's the market like now?" Ning Zhiheng asked. These properties are currently extremely valuable, but in six months they'll be worthless. Of course, it's safest to liquidate them as soon as possible; keeping the money in hand is always the safest option.
"The market is still pretty good. As you said, I lowered the price a bit and sold it quickly for a total of $80,000!" Wang Shucheng said with a smile. He didn't understand why Ning Zhiheng was in such a hurry to sell the property, but he always obeyed Ning Zhiheng's orders without question!
Not only that, he also converted all his assets into US dollars. The direct consequence of this was that from then on, he never questioned Ning Zhiheng's orders again!
Ning Zhiheng nodded. To be honest, selling so many properties in Nanjing for only $80,000 wasn't much, but it was free money after all, so he was very satisfied!
“Deliver it to my house tonight! Handle everything this way from now on. Only keep pounds and dollars on hand,” Ning Zhiheng nodded, then thought for a moment and decided to give Wang Shucheng a heads-up: “We won’t be staying in Nanjing for long. There’s news that the Military Intelligence Bureau is going to deploy a large number of personnel to conduct a sweep of our rear cities. We need to be prepared; they might choose us. So we need to be ready to leave at any time! This must be kept secret; don’t tell anyone else!”
Wang Shucheng suddenly realized why the team leader had to deal with everything in Nanjing; it turned out there was inside information. He nodded repeatedly in agreement, then got up to take his leave!
Ning Zhiheng had no choice. Once the war started, leaving was a foregone conclusion. He couldn't abandon his family and stay in a dangerous place!
All he can do is try to get as many people around him as possible out of the area. He can only find an excuse to get them ready to leave, otherwise he'll be caught off guard and regret it later.
At that moment, in a car outside the gate of the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, Du Qian, the police chief of Xicheng District, and Shao Wenguang were talking in hushed tones.
"Brother Shao, can this Team Leader Ning you mentioned really guarantee my safety? This 300,000 is no small sum. It's not that I'm afraid of spending the money, it's that I'm afraid of turning to the wrong organization and failing to get anything done! I don't have time to gamble anymore. Yesterday, another family moved into our neighborhood. They don't look like good people at all. They're definitely spying on me. Now I don't even dare to go home!" Police Chief Du Qian said with a sob in his voice.
He was indeed terrified during this time. The agents from the Party Affairs Investigation Department were getting closer and closer, and it seemed they would make their move soon. He couldn't just sit and wait to die. But even his patron, the deputy director of the police headquarters, turned his back on him and wouldn't even let him in the door.
In his desperation, he turned to Shao, the military intelligence investigation officer, whom he had only recently met!
"Old Du, don't worry! Who is Team Leader Ning? Only someone with my connections and influence could get close to someone like him."
A protégé of the Whampoa Military Academy, a major and leader of the action group, he graduated from Whampoa less than a year ago and is only twenty-one years old this year.
When he was promoted, the head of our Military Intelligence Department personally conferred his rank, and when we held a banquet to celebrate, the head of the department and the deputy head attended to offer their congratulations! This is no secret in our Military Intelligence Department; you just need to pay attention and ask around to find out. Just think about the background behind him! Shao Wenguang spoke eloquently and tirelessly, praising Ning Zhiheng to the skies. And to be honest, he was telling the truth, not afraid that Du Qian would inquire about it privately.
"It's true! My God! Brother Shao, your connections are truly amazing! I must have accumulated a lot of good karma in my past life to be able to know you, Brother Shao. If I can escape this time, I will definitely repay you handsomely." Hearing Shao Wenguang's words, Du Qian felt much more at ease. He had finally found the right place, and it seemed that he could get through this ordeal without any real danger.
"Old Du, I'm only helping you out because you're straightforward and sensible. This money won't be wasted. By the way, Team Leader Ning only likes pounds and dollars, I've told you that before, have you prepared?" Shao Wenguang waved his hand to interrupt Du Qian's flattery and asked directly.
Du Qian quickly held up the small box in his hand and said, "Thirty thousand US dollars, not a penny less!"
Shao Wenguang nodded and said, "That's good. Once you're inside, answer whatever Team Leader Ning asks you. Be honest. He's very shrewd. He can see through any lie you tell, and you know the consequences!"
"Understood! Understood! I will tell you everything I know without holding anything back!" Du Qian said repeatedly.
