Chapter 27: School Officers Are Not Allowed to Take Concubines
downstairs.
Wu Jingzhong and Mu Liancheng returned to the hall after playing tennis.
Huizi has prepared tea, fruit plates and snacks.
"Zecheng, where is Miss Wanqiu?" Wu Jingzhong sat down and took the hot towel to wipe his face and hands.
"It was here just now..." Yu Zecheng said hurriedly.
Wu Jingzhong glared at him secretly.
What a waste!
I've been talking for so many days, but I can't even get a woman.
He always suspected that Mu Liancheng had a backup plan.
Those treasures must be hidden in some corner. This rich guy won't give them up even if his house is searched or a confession is forced.
I had hoped that Yu Zecheng could get some useful information from Wanqiu, but now it seems that I can no longer count on him.
Yu Zecheng looked at him and lowered his head in shame.
"Stationmaster Wu, it takes time for young people to develop feelings, so just take your time.
"Director Yu is a major and has a promising future. Wanqiu will figure it out."
Mu Liancheng smiled at the side.
"I hope so." Wu Jingzhong sighed.
Then he looked at Mu Liancheng fiercely:
"Boss Mu, let me tell you, there are big problems at your winery in Yuezhou."
"Stationmaster Wu, what...what happened to the winery?" Mu Liancheng panicked.
“The people over there telegraphed that your winery is operating at a heavy loss, and there is a huge funding gap for equipment, estate maintenance, etc.
"Brother, you specifically found a mess for me to clean up."
Wu Jingzhong tilted his head and tapped the coffee table lightly, his eyes cunning and cold as a wolf.
"This……"
Faced with this ruthless tiger, Mu Liancheng didn't know how to respond.
The winery's products have always been in high demand and are very popular among the upper and middle classes of the municipal government and garrison in Hong Kong and eastern Guangdong.
If it weren’t for the Japanese’s incompetence.
He originally planned to open a branch in Hong Kong.
This thing became a mess just a few days after being handed over?
After robbing money to this extent, have you lost all your dignity?
Son of a bitch!
Mu Liancheng looked at Huizi somewhat at a loss.
"Stationmaster Wu, we were indeed inconsiderate in this matter and are sorry to have caused you trouble.
"Well, you tell us the amount, and we will make up for the shortfall for you now."
Huizi understood and asked in a soft voice.
As she spoke, the beautiful woman who still had her charm deliberately leaned forward, revealing most of her snow-white breasts to Wu Jingzhong.
Yu Zecheng, who was standing by, was horrified.
Wu Jingzhong glanced at it without any ripple.
He had long passed his days of extravagance, and except for money and antiques, nothing else mattered to him.
"Zecheng, I don't understand business matters, you come..."
Before Wu Jingzhong finished speaking, he saw Hong Zhiyou walking towards him holding Wanqiu's hand, talking and laughing.
"Secretary Hong?" he shouted, frowning.
"Stationmaster? Why are you here? I, I am not interfering with official business, am I?" Hong Zhi looked panicked.
Wu Jingzhong looked cold and gestured to Yu Zecheng, indicating him to continue.
Yu Zecheng clasped his hands and said, "I have read the report sent by Yuezhou.
"In addition to a number of machines that need to be replaced and repaired, there are also account fund losses, etc. The total cost is too little to say...
"Twenty thousand dollars!"
"Twenty thousand US dollars!" Mu Liancheng's eyes widened.
He is not short of money.
But this is too much, it's too painful.
"Cough cough!" Wu Jingzhong almost choked on the tea.
On the way here, he and Yu Zecheng agreed on a payment of 5,000 US dollars, aiming to make a small investment and make it last for a long time.
But I didn't expect Yu Zecheng's words to increase several times as fast as he opened his mouth. He was even more cruel than me.
"Stationmaster Wu, twenty thousand US dollars is... not too much?" Mu Liancheng took out a handkerchief and kept wiping the sweat off his face.
"Boss Mu used to do foreign trade in ships, so the thing he has the most is US dollars.
“Of course, if you think it’s too much, Stationmaster Wu can return the mess to you.
"Think about it."
Yu Zecheng said with a wry smile.
"Okay, twenty thousand dollars is no problem." Huizi made the decision.
She got up and went to the inner room.
Soon, two stacks of brand new US dollar bills in denominations of one hundred were brought in.
It was worth it for Wu Jingzhong and Yu Zecheng to watch.
Hong Zhiyou only has two words to say: so cool.
There are many people in Jinhai who can take out 100 US dollars, but it is rare to take out -denomination bills, which are still new. US dollars are valuable now.
Most of the notes circulating in the market are in denominations of 10 or 20.
Even black market traders like Captain Xu and Long Er find it difficult to get 100 US dollars.
"Stationmaster Wu, here is the money, please accept it.
"Mr. Mu, I'll trouble you to remove the label of traitor."
Huizi leaned down and reminded.
"I will take care of the traitor matter, Secretary Hong." Wu Jingzhong suppressed his joy and waved his hand coldly.
Hong Zhiyou picked up the fragrant US dollar bills.
After checking it carefully and confirming that it was real money, he nodded and handed it to Yu Zecheng.
Lao Yu put it into his bag with an expressionless face.
"Stationmaster Wu, have some tea."
……
At noon, Wu Jingzhong brought his golden double guns to Mu Liancheng's house for a sumptuous seafood dinner.
After dinner.
Wanqiu prepared fruits and drinks.
Wu Jingzhong came to the balcony and sat under the parasol, overlooking the mountain view:
"Secretary Hong, come here."
The others retreated tactfully.
"Webmaster." Hong Zhiyou bent over and moved closer.
"Sit down." Wu Jingzhong picked up a glass of mango juice and handed it to him:
"Why are you here?"
"Ms. Wanqiu is my girlfriend. The last time I was chased by the Cao Gang, I spent the night here." Hong Zhiyou replied, holding a drink.
"Then why didn't you say it earlier?" Wu Jingzhong asked.
"Mu, Mu Liancheng is a traitor. I'm afraid it will affect our progress." Hong Zhiyou said timidly.
"You kid, really.
"What do you mean by traitor or not? Let me ask you, how close are you to his niece?" Wu Jingzhong asked.
"Good."
"Very good, did you sleep?
"We are all men, don't be shy, answer truthfully." Wu Jingzhong pointed at him and asked with a smile.
"Sleep...sleep." Hong Zhiyou said.
"Tsk!"
Wu Jingzhong clapped his hands and said happily: "You are an old hand in the love field, but you can't be too gentle when dealing with a girl like this.
"Director Yu has been talking for half a month but has no clue.
"That's perfect, Mu Liancheng wants his niece to be the daughter-in-law of our Military Control Station.
"I think you're pretty good, it's you."
"Webmaster, Director Yu, you won't have any objection, right?" Hong Zhiyou asked deliberately.
“What’s his opinion?
"My wife from my hometown will come to Tianjin in a few days.
“Besides, it’s illegal for an officer to take a concubine.
"He has an opinion, and I can't agree with it."
Wu Jingzhong whispered with a serious face.
Ha ha.
So you know that it is illegal for an officer to take a concubine... Hong Zhi looked respectful and grateful:
"Thank you for your help, Station Master."
Wu Jingzhong hooked his finger and Hong Zhiyou moved closer.
He whispered: "You say these bottles and jars are nothing, I have a hunch that Mu Liancheng must have a lot of good treasures hidden.
"Those are all the property of the Party and the country. If we lose even a penny, you and I will be sinners.
“Zhiyou, have a good talk with that little girl.
"Try to dig out all of Mu Liancheng's past for me."
"Yes, it is our duty as a student to be loyal to the Party and the country." Hong Zhiyou stood up and saluted.
"Sit down, sit down."
Wu Jingzhong was very satisfied to see that his beloved general was so understanding.
"Tell me the truth, are you here today to challenge Director Yu?" He looked at Hong Zhiyou with a smile.
Hong Zhiyou looked at Wu Jingzhong.
The old fox's eyes are deep.
He realized that this was not an easy question.
If he answered wrongly, it would be a disaster for him and Yu Zecheng.
