Chapter 43 Stupid Woman
Chapter 43 Stupid Woman
"Hong Zhiyou?" Zhou Yunyi frowned slightly.
The name seems familiar, but I don't have much impression of it.
"He is a favorite of Wu Jingzhong.
"I have connections with the garrison, the Americans, and the Cao Gang, and I am doing very well.
"If we can get his help, it shouldn't be difficult to get weapons and medicine."
Yong Manzhu had obviously done her homework.
"Are you sure?" Zhou Yunyi asked.
“I’ve heard that Hong Zhiyou is a well-known womanizer.
"His intentions are self-evident as he sends his visiting card at this time." Yong Manzhu said with disdain.
“Hong Zhiyou is from Jinhai Station.
"No."
"It's too dangerous to associate with such people." Zhou Yunyi shook his head in rejection.
Yong Jianqiu nodded in agreement: "San'er!
"You have just joined the organization and do not understand the dangers inside. It is better not to participate."
"Dad, which warrior isn't forged through thousands of trials and tribulations?
"Even if there is bloodshed and sacrifice, my daughter will never blink."
Yong Manzhu curled her lips and was very determined.
She has lived a life of luxury since childhood and always felt that life was like a stagnant pool of water.
Ever since I knew that my sister was a popular figure and my father was a friendly businessman, my blood has been burning with passion all the time and I dream of becoming a heroine.
“Besides, smuggling arms and medicines is an old tradition in our family.
"Dad, you are old friends with Uncle Kong and Mr. Dai.
“Even if they caught me, at most they would just print some flyers and resell some stuff.
"With them protecting me, who in Jinhai dares to touch me?"
Yong Manzhu argued coquettishly.
"You don't understand..." Yong Jianqiu was about to preach when the door rang.
dong dong!
"Master, Mr. Hong is here." Butler Lao Liu called softly from outside the door.
"Mr. Zhou, please go through the dark room first."
Yong Jianqiu did not respond and first arranged for Zhou Yunyi to leave.
"Old Liu, clean up."
After a moment, he opened the door and gave instructions.
The father and daughter went downstairs immediately.
The housekeeper Liu Zhong is over 60 years old. He has been in the Yong family for decades and has long been like a family member.
The butler, with a slightly hunched back and an honest face, entered the tea room.
While clearing the tea tray, he noticed an extra cup on the table.
Liu Zhong picked up the cup and smelled it, frowning: "Smell of cigarettes?"
The master and the lady don't smoke.
Someone has been here!
That shouldn't be the case. There are no visitors today.
Could it be...
Liu Zhong glanced around the tea room and felt secretly delighted:
"Master, I'm sorry, I was forced to do this, I have no choice but to rebel."
……
Hong Zhiyou came to Yong's house with gifts.
It is worthy of being a wealthy family during the Beiyang period.
A Chinese style of luxury.
All the furniture is made of high-grade wood.
Inside the house, all kinds of porcelain are obviously extraordinary.
Even though you're down and out, you're still rich.
"Mr. Hong!" Yong Jianqiu came towards him and greeted him with a bow.
Hong Zhiyou glanced at the two of them.
Yong Jianqiu was dressed in a Tang suit, had a thin build, a gentle, fair complexion, and glasses strung with a gold chain, a typical businessman.
Yong Manzhu was wearing a white dress.
She is tall, with a fair and rosy oval face, black and shiny almond eyes, and looks a bit like Ying Bao.
Moreover, the chest is equally barren.
I'm about to graduate from college and still using this account. I guess there's not much room for development.
Bad review!
"Mr. Yong."
"I've heard for a long time that the Yong family has three golden flowers, but I don't know who this young lady is..."
Hong Zhi asked with a very graceful smile.
"This is my third child, Manzhu," Yong Jianqiu introduced.
"Mr. Hong, are you a reporter from Jinhai Daily?" Yong Manzhu asked with a smile and winked.
"yes.
"The newspaper wants to interview Mr. Yong..."
Hong Zhiyou professionally took out his ID, paper and pen.
Everyone is tacit.
After finishing the interview with a fake deal, Yong Jianqiu said:
"Manzhu, you young people can chat. I'm going upstairs to rest for a while."
"Mr. Hong, let's take a walk in the back garden." Yong Manzhu suggested.
back yard.
The two walked slowly, and Hong Zhiyou started flirting:
"What does Miss Manzhu like?"
"I like selling arms."
Yong Manzhu turned her head and looked at him straight with her beautiful eyes:
“You are from Tsukai Station, a friend of Ryuji and Meilao.
“Commander Yang is pursuing my second sister.
"The last time he came, he said that you and the Americans stole a large amount of military supplies from him.
“You also said that there is nothing you can’t do in Jinhai.
"Is it right?"
No, girl, are you so direct?
"What do you mean by black? That's the property of the party and the country." Hong Zhiyou corrected with a smile.
"Just tell me whether you want to sell it or not." "How about I offer a profit 20% higher than the market price?" Yong Manzhu stretched out two fingers mischievously.
"Miss San, listen carefully.
"Standing in front of you are the lieutenant of Jinhai Station, the secretary of Station Chief Wu, and the Jinhai Artillery... Please be careful with your words." Hong Zhi felt that there was no point in chatting that day.
"What are you afraid of?
“My family was a major arms dealer during the Beiyang period.
“I also bargained in front of your Station Master Wu.
"Old Yang said that everyone from top to bottom is reselling military supplies.
"It doesn't matter whose money you make. Can't we cooperate?"
Yong Manzhu felt that a villain like Hong Zhi could be dealt with with money.
Stupid woman!
"No." Hong Zhiyou shook his head and refused.
“I have 30% more.
“Forty percent.
"Fifty percent."
Yong Manzhu raised her chin proudly and continued to raise the price.
"Why don't you just give yourself to me?"
Hong Zhiyou suddenly pinched her butt and asked with a wicked smile.
"You, bad guy, scum." Yong Manzhu was so scared that she almost screamed.
"Don't worry, I can't mess with you!
“It feels too wooden, I’m not interested.
"Goodbye, Miss San!"
Hong Zhi gave a few dry laughs and ran away.
All he wanted now was to stay away from this crazy woman.
This is not the Beiyang era. Reselling military supplies and medicines will cost you your life.
Don’t even mention 50%.
I wouldn’t even dare to sell it at ten times the price.
Not to mention that the Yong family had already been closely watched by Ma Kui.
Is this kind of stuff worthy of being used as red paper?
He really doesn't even realize that death is approaching.
Yong Manzhu refused to give in and had never suffered any loss in her life.
Everyone must be pampered and obey him.
She angrily picked up her skirt and chased to the door:
"What do you mean, are you going to sell it or not?"
"Take your head out from under your heels and wash it properly." Hong Zhiyou ignored him and opened the car door to get in.
"Mr. Hong, Miss, what's for dinner?"
Liu Zhong happened to come out and shouted at the door.
Hong Zhiyou glanced at him, got into the car, stepped on the accelerator and fled in a hurry.
……
Return to the station.
Wu Jingzhong was getting ready to get off work.
"Why, didn't you go out for a few drinks?
“I heard that the three young ladies of the Yong family are all beauties.
"Young ladies are all very unrestrained."
Seeing that Hong Zhiyi was losing interest, he put down his handbag and asked with a smile.
Hong Zhiyou answered truthfully, not daring to hide anything.
"Poor woman!
“The Yong family used to eat at various places and did have dealings with Hongpiao.
"To deal with such a stupid woman, you have to be simple and rough."
Wu Jingzhong sneered, then waved his hand:
“Isn’t she going to buy weapons and medicine?
"Sell!
"The Red Tickets are desperate now. Let's use this batch of arms to catch them all in one fell swoop."
"Stationmaster, the problem is that we don't have any weapons." Hong Zhiyou said with a smile.
“Long Er looted the dock warehouse, but didn’t he leave anything behind?
"Is your American friend not capable of any tricks?"
Wu Jingzhong looked at him with a smile.
"Stationmaster, Yang Wenquan gave all his stuff to Gui Jun. Haven't we divided the accounts?
“Not to mention the Americans, General Butler is a stubborn person, and he values that thing more than a family heirloom.
"I really have no idea."
Hong Zhiyou smiled very naturally.
Wu Jingzhong was not aware of the arms matter.
Lao Yu and Liao Sanmin wanted to make contributions, so there was no way they would sell him out. Wu Jingzhong was obviously trying to trick them.
"is it?"
Wu Jingzhong's eyes darkened and he stared at him coldly.
"Teacher, if I can learn a little from you in this life, I will be rich enough.
"I'm living a good life and risking my life for this. Isn't that crazy?" Hong Zhiyou explained pretending to be nervous.
“It’s good to know.
"You are quite a big shot now. You are familiar with the garrison, the docks, the municipal administration, and you are more effective than me, the stationmaster, in speaking.
"It's said outside that you're no longer called Cannon King, but Jin Hai Tong!"
Wu Jingzhong pointed at him half-jokingly.
“Teacher, no matter how tired Jin Haitong is, Cannon King is still the best.
"Besides, wasn't it all because of your might?
"From tomorrow on, I will stay with you all the time. I will serve you tea and water for the rest of my life."
Hong Zhiyou chuckled and started to flatter him.
“It’s good to have the ability.
"It can accomplish great things!"
There is no need for a heavy hammer to beat the drum. Wu Jingzhong just needs to point it out. He picked up the landline and dialed the number:
"Commander Chen? I'm Wu Jingzhong.
“The station needs to borrow a batch of military supplies to carry out the mission.
"Don't worry, I have no use for your broken fire sticks. I will return them to you as soon as I catch you."
