Chapter 1333 Hidden Figures
Liu Shang never thought that meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign country would happen under such a scene, and the appearance of this "old acquaintance" was not only not a surprise, but more of a shock.Although Liu Shang belonged to the same camp as him, he really didn't feel the slightest joy when he met him. Instead, he immediately began to doubt the reason why the other party appeared here, and assessed the risks he might cause to himself.
This kind of reaction can be regarded as a manifestation of occupational diseases. Liu Shang basically acted on a single line during his latent period in Haihan. Anyone who knows his true identity, including his contact Liao Yuan, can be regarded as a potential hidden danger of identity exposure. .Originally there was only one Liao Yuan, which already made Liu Shang uneasy all the time, afraid of being implicated by him, and wished to find an opportunity to deal with him quickly.Now a guy who knows his details suddenly appeared, which made Liu Shangcai's mood tense again after being calm for a few days.
Liu Shang quickly sorted out the current situation in his mind. Although his current official status would put him in a passive position in the clear, this temporary official position is actually not useless. At least in the immigration camp, he still speaks. have a certain influence.The most important thing at the moment is to try to find out the person's cover-up identity, as well as the area and unit to which he will be assigned.
Liu Shang spent a long time wandering in the market and learned a lot of routines, so he immediately asked the officials of the immigration camp to ask about the distribution of these immigrants.
The Youth League is a very special existence in Haihan official circles, it can be said that it is the only way for young officials to be promoted, and being an official in the Youth League is often regarded by the outside world and low-level officials as a person with great authority.Of course, this is not the case in fact. For example, Liu Shang's temporary position is a vacant position, which belongs to the role of the labor force who needs to move where it needs to be, rather than the big man who manages the young official system.But his temporary position is enough to make the people below look up to him, so regarding his question, the immigration management officer here did not dare to hide anything, and immediately went to his side to introduce him in detail.
Although this group of more than 70 immigrants is counted as the same group of people who received assignments, the Immigration Bureau will not assign them to one place, but will dismantle them and resettle them to various places in Hainan Island. Also divided into six [-] people.However, Liu Shang was worried about arousing the other party's suspicion, so he couldn't directly point to him to recognize the person and ask him for details. Instead, he went around and asked the little official to show the registration information of these people.The little official didn't doubt that there was him, so he hurried to get the notebook and handed it to Liu Shang.
Although Liu Shang didn't know what the person's pseudonym was, and what kind of disguise he used to cover up his identity, he knew Haihan's immigration registration information. The personal information recorded on it was very detailed, only gender, age, and physical characteristics content, he will soon be able to screen out the man in gray.
Liu Shang was already familiar with the way Haihan registered materials during the earlier period of looking up materials in the Sanya Municipal Library, so it was not a problem to look through this kind of immigration materials, starting directly from male immigrants.Among the more than 400 immigrants, male immigrants accounted for [-]%, and among them, immigrants between [-] and [-] accounted for about half.Liu Shang estimated that even if the man lied about his age, he could only be within this range, otherwise it would not match his appearance.
Liu Shang has an excellent memory. Even if he doesn’t take notes, he has already selected the information of these more than 100 people in his mind, and then looked at the description of physical characteristics, and erased most of them, leaving only 30 people. .
Liu Shang knew that the people sent from Daming generally would not cover up their status as pure farmers, because although the possibility of revealing their secrets was extremely low, as immigrants, they would easily be assigned to some remote places to act as pioneers in reclaiming wasteland. There is no chance of accessing valuable information at all.Therefore, in order to be able to stay in a big city like Sanya and develop, the Ming intelligence personnel who entered Sanya disguised as new immigrants usually used the identity of a craftsman in a certain industry as a cover, so that they could stay in the big city in a short period of time. Obtain the Haihan naturalization qualification, and it is better to be able to contact some special industries and departments.
Similar to Liu Shang, he came to Haihan as a storyteller. With this special talent, he was appreciated by the Propaganda Department and directly recruited him to work in the official department.Nationality, identity, and status are all in place in one step. This treatment can be said to be the lucky one among the intelligence personnel of Ming Dynasty.Liao Yuan and others who came to Haihan before him to lurk, have not had the opportunity to work in Haihan's official organization so far, and they are only engaged in the business of guarding the home in Sanya.
Liu Shang knew that this person must have some kind of special identity, and he had stayed in Haihan for more than two months, and he already had a certain understanding of which professions were most likely to be accepted.After scanning the information of these remaining people several times, most of them were filtered out, leaving only three people.
Among these three people, one is a martial artist, one is a carpenter, and the other is a scholar. It is difficult for Liu Shang to judge which one is the other party's concealed identity for a while.But it didn't bother him, Zhuangru asked the little official standing beside him unintentionally: "These people will be assigned soon, how much do you know about them?"
The petty official quickly responded: "Since this group of people arrived in Hong Kong, their registration and immigration assignments have been handled by humble officials. It has been seven or eight days before and after. It's not that the humble officials are boasting. This group of people randomly pulled out one Come, the villain can immediately report their personal situation. Officer Liu can ask questions at will, and he will know after a try."
"If you're so confident, then I'll randomly select a few names from the roster, and you can point them out to me. By the way, tell me about your personal situation to see if it matches the registration information." Seeing the other party's cooperation, Liu Shang was not polite at the moment , and immediately announced a temporary business assessment to him.
The little official only thought that Liu Shang was testing whether he was working hard, and never thought that he had other purposes, and even hoped that he could perform in front of him with anticipation.
Liu Shangdao first chose two names at random. After looking around, the official pointed out in detail where the person was sitting and his personal information, which was consistent with what was registered on the roster.Liu Shang saw that this little official was really familiar with his business, so he immediately began to report the names of the three remaining people who were finally screened by him.When it came to the second person, the position pointed by the little official was the man in gray that Liu Shang had recognized.
"This Qin An is from Fujian, and his carpentry skills are quite good. These days, he has also helped us with a lot of carpentry work. His humble job sees him with a positive attitude towards work, and he is an honest person who does not talk much, so I am going to recommend him. He went to the construction team under the Ministry of Construction, or the Shengli Port Shipyard, and these two places should be suitable for him to display his skills." The little official gave a very detailed introduction, including all the units that he planned to recommend this person to. Reported out.
"So your name is Qin An..." Liu Shang secretly wrote down this name, although it must be the same as his current name, not his real real name, but for unknown pawns like them lurking in Haihan, his real name is already There is no practical significance anymore.
As far as Liu Shang knows, immigrants who are carpenters are considered very popular craftsmen in Haihan. Many production departments have to deal with carpentry. Therefore, immigrants with this craft can be said to have no worries about their livelihood in Haihan. of.This Qin An chose the profession of carpenter as his identity cover. On the one hand, he must have relatively strong craftsmanship. On the other hand, he probably took a fancy to this profession. Industries with technical barriers may be able to secretly learn some advanced technologies that Haihan has kept secret.
Even Liu Shang has to admit that if he wants to learn Haihan's skills secretly, someone who knows carpentry is probably more useful than someone like himself who can only record words.Especially those mechanical devices that seem to have a complicated structure, the structure that Liu Shang couldn't understand after tossing and turning for a long time, in the eyes of the craftsman, the mystery may be seen at a glance.
If this Qin An sneaked into Haihan silently and didn't meet Liu Shang in this place, then that's all.Shrimp has its way of shrimp, and crab has its way of crab. Everyone develops according to their own abilities, and there is nothing to say.But since he had already met in this place, and Liu Shang also knew that the other party recognized him, the situation was a little more complicated.Now he can't judge how the other party views his appearance and current official status, but out of empathy, the other party may also worry that his appearance will put him in a risky situation of identity exposure.And those who work in their business know that the safest principle to protect their identity from being leaked is to kill all the insiders around them.
Liao Yuan is an insider, but he has party members, and may even have other cards that Liu Shang doesn't know about. Liu Shang's ability alone can't deal with him.But this Qin An is a newcomer, and he doesn't know much about the Haihan society outside the immigration camp. In the initial stage of entering this environment, he will have many things he can't adapt to, and this may lead to his identity being exposed—— — This is the situation that Liu Shang experienced in the early days of entering Sanya. He has reason to believe that Qin An will also face a similar situation.
Liu Shang has two choices at the moment. One is to support the newcomer through the adaptation period as soon as possible, as Liao Yuan did to him, so as not to implicate himself by accidentally revealing his identity.This way of handling can help this colleague settle down as soon as possible, but the disadvantages are also obvious. If he is so abruptly related to him, although the short-term exposure risk is reduced, it will undoubtedly increase the risk in the long-term.
The other option is more decisive, cut off all contact with this person as much as possible in the future, and treat it as a stranger.Of course, this is not safe. If necessary, you should even consider killing it to eliminate hidden dangers in the bud.And Liu Shang's own heart is obviously more inclined to the latter way of dealing with it, because only in this way can it be truly foolproof.
Liu Shang is so careful about his personal safety, to the point of being terribly cautious. Even his colleagues want to silence him directly, but there is a reason for it.In the past few years, various intelligence agencies, local governments, and the military of Ming Dynasty have successively sent many batches of intelligence personnel to Hainan Island, but they have come a lot and have suffered a lot. Many of the intelligence personnel captured by Haihan were not exposed by themselves. , but was exposed by other arrested colleagues.Some people even betrayed Haihan and sent him to catch the latent personnel sent by Daming for Haihan.
After learning enough experience and lessons, Ming's intelligence agency has adjusted its strategy, arranging as much as possible for intelligence personnel to act single-line after sneaking into Haihan, or even dormant as a "dead game" that will not be activated for a period of time.Liu still doesn't know how many unknown "dead chessmen" in Haihan are waiting for the activation order, but he knows that Qin An is definitely not a lurker with such a task, because they are interviewed by the same batch, and the superior was very clear at the time He told him honestly that the mission of going to Haihan was to collect intelligence and wait for the opportunity to plan sabotage activities.
Liu Shang was fascinated when he thought about it, and he didn't come back to his senses until the little official around him greeted him several times, closed the roster in his hand and handed it back to him, and praised: "You are very responsible for your work, and you have done a good job. it is good!"
After sending this little official away, the colleagues who were in charge of preaching had also finished their work, and finally it was Liu Shang's turn to take the stage.After he came to the stage, he was condescending, and saw that Qin An was still watching him furtively.Liu Shang calmed down, first introduced himself, and then began to tell these immigrants about the naval battle that took place in the coastal waters of Sanya a few days ago.
Liu Shang’s narration is basically based on the articles published in the Haihan Times. For some more complicated issues, such as the grievances between Haihan and the Spaniards, Liu Shang also explained it incidentally, so as to avoid these Immigrants from Ming and other countries do not understand the cause and effect.His speech is in the form of a storyteller, and it is also about the content of fighting and fighting. Naturally, it is more ups and downs and exciting than that of his colleagues on the stage. Listening to the book is normal, such a reaction also makes Liu Shang a little dumbfounded.
After he finished speaking on the stage, the staff of the immigration camp took the lead in applauding, and the immigrants followed suit and applauded.After Liu Shang stepped down, the errand was completed. However, Liu Shang said that he wanted to collect materials for his writing, so he took the initiative to stay and did not leave the immigration camp with others.
According to Liu Shang's request, the immigration camp selected several people from the group of new immigrants who had just listened to the lecture, and they took turns to accept Liu Shang's individual questioning to find out whether they really understood the content of the lecture.Of course, this was just an excuse he came up with on the spur of the moment. The real purpose was to get in touch with this Qin An before these immigrants were released, and find out the other party's purpose and plan.
