Chapter 292 The position of webmaster is in the cards
"Zhiyou, you are worthy of being one of us. You understand me." Yu Zecheng put his hands on the sofa cushion and looked at Hong Zhiyou with a smile.
Hong Zhiyou adjusted his glasses, curled his lips, turned his head away and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
“You’re not nearsighted, why do you always wear glasses?
"Oh.
"I remember now, you and my oldest nephew wear the same glasses."
Yu Zecheng's soul-searching question with dry humor.
"If you can't speak, no one will think you are dumb.
"Does he have the gold chain I have?"
Hong Zhiyou took off his gold-rimmed glasses in annoyance and put them in his pocket.
“If I were you, I would immediately ask Ms. Chen Yan to call Qian Siming.
"If Li Ya poisoned the fruit, it would be too late for you now."
He took a sip of tea, rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch.
"Yep.
"Yes, we have to hurry. Don't leave. I haven't finished explaining it yet."
Yu Zecheng was afraid that he would run away, so he told him something and quickly picked up the phone and dialed the number:
“Cui Ping.
"I won't be back for lunch today. Go buy some paper for calligraphy practice later.
"Remember, you can't eat lunch.
"I see it's going to rain, you have to hurry up and go early and come back early.
"That's it, hang up."
"My senior sister should have taken the job a long time ago, you just don't trust him." Hong Zhiyou asked with a smile.
"she?
"Don't mention it. Last time I asked her to do something, she got into a fight with some thieves on the way and lost her things. It was Li Ya who went to the police station to bail her out.
“Fortunately, the things were picked up by our own people.
"It almost scared me to death."
Yu Zecheng shook his head and smiled with lingering fear.
“It’s like this in the mountains. You have to be good at fighting the Japanese, but it’s a delicate job that takes some time.
"Tell me, what is your second step?"
Hong Zhiyou asked.
"Go to the newspaper and tell the newspaper that Professor Qian was poisoned. This will shock Li Ya and at the same time have Lu Qiaoshan strengthen his defenses.
"No matter what, ensuring Professor Qian's safety is our top priority."
Yu Zecheng said.
“Well, I can arrange that.
“But relying on this trick, it would be difficult to make Lu Qiaoshan give up the idea of fishing for merit.
"Forget it, let's wait until Ms. Chen arrives in Jinhai."
Hong Zhiyou touched a cigarette and put it back just as he was about to light it.
"Cough cough."
Yu Zecheng started coughing again, rubbing his throbbing temples, a trace of pain on his face.
Being an undercover agent is really not something that ordinary people can do... Hong Zhiyou sighed in his heart.
Yu Zecheng has been under high pressure for many years.
Inside the station, there were suspicions and cold arrows from Li Ya and Lu Qiaoshan.
Outside the station, the reconstruction of the prefectural committee has suffered heavy losses in the past six months, and the children of the Student Union have been repeatedly shot at by Luqiaoshan.
As the leader of the transportation station, Yu Zecheng, who has always been serious, was under tremendous pressure from the organization and his conscience.
I have been to the hospital several times this year. I have become much thinner and my hair has become a lot grayer.
"Didn't you go to the doctor?
"When you have time, go to Jingling and ask Manager Qiu to prescribe a prescription for you to recuperate." Hong Zhiyou frowned.
"Forget it, I won't hurt him.
"Besides, my illness is here, and medicine may not be effective."
Yu Zecheng pointed to his chest and smiled bitterly.
“You asked for it.
"Eat when you need to, sleep when you need to, why think so much."
Hong Zhiyou stood up and said.
“I can’t help it if I don’t want to.
“One mistake could lead to countless deaths.
"Fortunately, we have won successive victories in the Northeast and eastern Shandong. When the army really enters Jinhai City, I will feel at ease." Yu Zecheng said with a smile.
"I can't convince you. I'm leaving." Hong Zhiyou said.
"The canned rations that the American army got last time were pretty good. They were simple and filling. The front line urgently needs them. Can you get another batch?" Yu Zecheng grabbed him and asked softly.
“Forget it.
“You already owe me over fifty thousand dollars.
"If I continue to do business like this, I will go bankrupt."
Hong Zhiyou refused without thinking.
“We are raising money.
“The Rong family wanted to raise money to buy an airplane, but they couldn’t spare any money, and Mr. Yong’s money was pledged for arms.
"My transportation station and bookstore are running at a deficit and we have to support the printing factory and the student union. Lao Luo is so poor that he can't even pay the rent. If I hadn't gotten oil, noodles, rice and other things from the station, the business would have closed down long ago.
"You get the goods first, and when you get through this difficult time, I will definitely give you every penny.
"It's the last dark moment before dawn. It's just a shiver. Let's all grit our teeth."
Yu Zecheng persuaded helplessly.
“It’s difficult for me too.
“Now that the war is going on like this, all the rich people are fleeing to North America, alcohol sales have obviously slowed down, and sugar is not selling well either.
“Last time we transported five truckloads of sugar to Hankou.
"We agreed to take it, but they stood us up. It was almost all in vain. Just this one trip, Old Xie and that idiot from the action team lost 7,000 to 8,000 US dollars.
“Besides, you know the rules of the Americans.
"They don't care whether you can sell it or not. They always ask for money first and then the goods. I'm short of money too."
Hong Zhiyou also complained to him.
It is really hard to do business with red tickets. If you sell them at a loss, you have to find money from other places to make up the difference. You have to trade several times to make a small profit.
It really is a lot of trouble.
"Think about it, all of this is recorded in the Line 1 notebook. When liberation comes, you will be a great hero.
“The Party and the people will remember you.
"Just this once, for the last time. Make sure you pay the full amount next time."
Yu Zecheng lobbied like a sticky candy.
"This is your last time?" Hong Zhiyou said unhappily.
“Just the last time!
"If you can't make up the money next time, I'll ask your senior sister to teach you some real stuff." Yu Zecheng said seriously.
"Stop talking nonsense.
"My senior sister passed something to me, and I want you to give it to me?
“Let me make this clear, this is the last time. I can advance the money, but you must make up the difference next time.
"With your mouth, you should be the Minister of Propaganda after liberation."
Hong Zhiyou couldn't persuade him and agreed reluctantly.
"Thanks.
"I will definitely report you to the organization.
"Just wait to hear the commendation on the radio." Yu Zecheng said with a smile.
"Who cares?"
Hong Zhiyou waved and left.
Buying and selling is actually investing.
He secretly gave things to Hongpiao, and the Rong family also increased investment in the construction of Xiangdao Wharf and his private island, investing a lot of connections and human resources.
It is an unspoken commitment on both sides’ part.
In fact, all in all, I still benefited from it.
As for the political benefits, there are even more. At least I will have the account here when I come back in the future. It will be beneficial after all.
No loss!
……
morning.
Qian Siming has cervical spondylosis and Liu Shan is giving him a massage.
It's almost done.
Lu Ming, who was hiding away, walked in carrying some vegetables.
Liu Shan, whose hands were sore, had no time to rest before Lu Ming sent him to the kitchen.
Qian Siming spends most of his time reading.
Lu Mingle had some free time, so he took a newspaper and started reading in the kitchen.
While slicing the fish, Liu Shan cursed his ancestors inwardly.
Damn, it’s just a great dad… I wish I had one too.
As I was muttering to myself, the phone rang.
Liu Shan wiped his hands and subconsciously wanted to rush out.
Lu Ming stopped him: "I'll go."
Qian Siming held his waist and just stood up from the sofa, Lu Ming grabbed the receiver first:
“Yes, you are?
"The professor is recuperating after a long journey, so he doesn't see everyone. Can you explain it more clearly?"
"Ms. Chen from Yenching University, right?
"Okay, let me ask."
He covered the receiver and said to Qian Siming, "Teacher, Ms. Chen from Yenching University said that she and you used to be colleagues at Nankai University."
"Give it to me." Qian Siming smiled faintly and took it:
"it's me.
"long time no see.
“Okay, I understand, thank you.
"What, you want to come over?
"It's better not to come all the way here. You've always been in poor health. I have people to take care of you here, no less than two.
“That’s really not necessary.
“Is that so? All right.
"I will be expecting you at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
After hanging up the phone, he looked at Lu Ming and said, "Cao Fang, go buy me a bunch of carnations tomorrow. A friend is coming over."
"Teacher, Ms. Chen has a very close relationship with you. She rushed to visit you as soon as you returned to China." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Yes.
“We are old friends from the Nankai period.
"Professor Chen has a profound knowledge of Chinese studies. You can ask him for advice when the time comes."
Qian Siming pointed at him and smiled.
"This is what I'm looking forward to." Lu Ming said respectfully.
Chatted for a while.
Liu Shan brought the dishes to the table, "Teacher, we can eat now."
"Ah."
Qian Siming nodded with satisfaction, and after a slight hesitation, he said:
"You guys eat, I'm not hungry yet."
Chen Yan had just reminded him on the phone that someone had tampered with the food, and said that she would come to visit and take care of him in person.
How could a female professor know so much?
It's obvious that she is most likely the favorite.
Even though Qian Siming reminded him that there were spies around him, the other party insisted on coming.
There should be a plan.
"Teacher, if you don't eat, how can we pick up our chopsticks?" Liu Shan scratched his head and smiled foolishly.
"It's okay, you guys can eat. You don't have to be restrained since we are not outsiders." Qian Siming said.
"Ok."
Liu Shan and the other man were really hungry.
Seeing the two people serving rice and reaching for their chopsticks to pick up some food, Qian Siming quickly stopped them:
"and many more."
"What's wrong, teacher?" The two looked at him in confusion.
Qian Siming was also confused.
Logically speaking, these two people are spies. They tampered with the food, so it doesn't make sense for them to eat it themselves.
He originally just wanted to cheat.
I didn’t expect these two people really ate it.
He hated the Kuomintang government, but after all, these were two young lives that had gone astray. If the drug was really poisonous, he couldn't just watch them get poisoned.
“There are many people who want me dead now.
"I'm just worried that someone will tamper with the food." Qian Siming pointed at the dishes.
"Teacher, I swear to God, how dare I disrespect you..." Liu Shan quickly stood up and defended himself.
"Liu Shan, don't get excited.
“I’m not talking about you, it could be someone outside.
"It's better to be careful anyway."
Qian Siming waved his hand and motioned him to sit down.
"You mean someone tampered with the vegetables we bought?" Lu Ming reacted immediately.
"We'll know if we try it." Qian Siming said.
"Teacher, wait a moment."
Lu Ming found a dining tray, brought out the food, and walked to the alley and said to the two intelligence officers on duty:
"You two go find a dog."
Soon, someone brought a dog.
The dog had eaten less than half of the meal when it convulsed and fell to the ground, with white foam coming out of its mouth.
“Someone poisoned it.
"That was a close call!" Lu Ming was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately he didn't eat it, otherwise he would be dead now.
Was it Liu Shan who poisoned him?
Not like.
If Liu Shan poisoned the food, he would be dead, and he was the first one to pick up the chopsticks.
If Professor Qian hadn’t stopped him, Liu Shan would have eaten the food.
Not Liu Shan.
I bought the vegetables myself.
There is only one possibility, there is something wrong with the vegetable vendor.
Just as he was about to give the order, he saw Lu Qiaoshan leading a group of people, including Doctor Liao from the Security Bureau, rushing over.
"Are you OK?"
Lu Qiaoshan walked over, pinched Lu Ming's shoulder and said worriedly.
"I'm fine, Dad... Director Lu, why are you here?" Lu Mingdao.
"I tapped Qian Siming's phone calls.
“I’m glad you’re okay.
"Is Professor Qian okay?" Lu Qiaoshan breathed a sigh of relief.
"He's fine." Lu Ming said.
"Director Lu, the person who poisoned the food must be the vegetable vendor. We need to catch him quickly." He reacted.
“It’s too late.
“I came from that side, but I ran away long ago.
"Li Ya received medicine in the equipment room.
"It must be him who did it."
Lu Qiaoshan said coldly.
"Dad, this is too dangerous.
"If they can poison us today, who knows what other means they will use tomorrow.
"If it really doesn't work, we should take action as soon as possible to transfer Professor Qian to Wandao."
Lu Ming suggested.
"No hurries?
"Li Ya, this matter is easy to solve.
"Isn't there a female professor from Yenching coming over tomorrow?
“You didn’t come earlier or later, but you even knew about the poisoning. You are so powerful, you must be a famous person.
“It might be a big fish.
“Catching Ms. Chen will be your first achievement.
"Tsukai is like this, be careful about everything and you'll get used to it."
Lu Qiaoshan straightened his son's collar and gave him gentle instructions.
"Okay." Lu Ming nodded.
"Take a deep breath and go." He patted his son on the back.
After Lu Ming left, Lu Qiaoshan turned around and instructed Sheng Xiang: "Arrange two people to check where the water pumps in this area are pumping water from. If it is a well, send people to take turns to monitor it 24 hours a day.
“Also, check for advantageous shooting points, commanding heights, etc. near Professor Qian’s home.
"Don't leave any horns untouched."
"I understand, Brother Shan." Sheng Xiang accepted the order.
In the afternoon, Lu Qiaoshan returned to the station.
I happened to meet Li Ya in the corridor.
"Captain Li, you are busy." Lu Qiaoshan said.
"Is there anything wrong?" Li Ya asked with a smile, putting his hands in his pockets.
"The trick you used this morning was pretty good." Lu Qiaoshan said with a wry smile.
"I don't understand what Director Lu means." Li Ya raised his left eyebrow.
“I don’t understand, it’s okay.
“I have asked witnesses from the vegetable vendor’s neighborhood, and the portrait artist has drawn the people, and the witnesses have identified two of them.
“It’s only a matter of time before we catch them.
"To murder a scientist hand-picked by the Ministry of National Defense, this was probably not Jianfeng's instruction or intention."
Lu Qiaoshan took off his glasses and blew on them to wipe the lenses.
"Then I wish you can catch those people as soon as possible." Li Ya nodded.
"Thank you."
Lu Qiaoshan put on his glasses and turned away.
Passing by Yu Zecheng's office, he paused for a moment, then quickly walked to the door and knocked:
"Lao Yu."
"Team Leader Lu, please come in." Yu Zecheng tactfully addressed him and stood up to greet him.
"Old Lu, you haven't come to my place for a while. Are you dissatisfied with the lack of coffee?"
He led Lu Qiaoshan to sit on the sofa.
“No, I drink tea too.
"The stationmaster is not here, and it's a rare opportunity for us to get together. Let's ask Shang Zhiyou to come over and chat." Lu Qiaoshan suggested with a smile.
"Good suggestion." Yu Zecheng stood up and called Hong Zhiyou.
There was a glimmer of cunning in Lu Qiaoshan's eyes hidden behind the lenses.
I have been working at Jinhai Station for so long.
Especially during the time he was away, he had been quietly paying attention to the affairs of the station as an outsider.
As the saying goes, the beholder is clear.
When Ma Kui was accused of being a traitor to Emei Peak, not only did he want to be the deputy station chief, but the station chief was anxious to distance himself from Mu Liancheng, and Yu Zecheng also played a major role in this.
To be precise, he is the direct opposite of Maguire.
Lu Qiaoshan probably has some idea in his mind that the rest is not clean.
This also explains why Hong Zhi had the transportation lines that could borrow red tickets.
Lu Qiaoshan originally wanted to kill Yu Zecheng.
But this guy consciously stepped down from the position of deputy webmaster, which shows that he is sensible.
He came here with the intention of revealing Professor Qian’s “crisis” situation.
Let Yu Zecheng speed up the process and send more people to rescue Qian Siming so that his son Lu Ming can reap the "kills".
Soon, Hong Zhiyou walked in.
"Close the door." Lu Qiaoshan ordered.
Hong Zhiyou closed the door and locked it.
"What's going on? Does Old Lu have any instructions?" Hong Zhiyou sat down with a smile.
"Have you heard?" Lu Qiaoshan crossed his legs and looked at the two of them.
"What did you hear?"
Hong Zhiyou and Yu Zecheng exchanged glances.
"Li Ya took the poison from the equipment room and had people disguised as vegetable farmers to poison Qian Siming. Thanks to Lu Ming's alertness and timely discovery, otherwise I would have been collecting Qian Siming's body by now." Lu Qiaoshan said.
“How can this be possible?
"Professor Qian is a high-ranking intellectual that the Ministry of National Defense has specifically named to be removed.
"Isn't this confusing, Captain Li?"
Yu Zecheng was so indignant that he could not express it.
"Hey, what are you confused about? Using personal interests for public benefit is the behavior of a mean person." Lu Qiaoshan sneered.
"Is there any evidence?" Hong Zhiyou interjected.
“It was done by professionals, so it’s not easy to catch them in a short time.
"He won't admit it unless he is caught." Lu Qiaoshan said.
"That's right.
"He is a well-known figure in Jianfeng. No one can do anything to him without evidence." Hong Zhi nodded.
“There’s no rush for this.
"It's easy to deal with him. What I'm worried about now is that he will attack Qian Siming.
"This kind of villain has shady means, and it's hard to guard against him."
Lu Qiaoshan took a sip of tea and glanced at Yu Zecheng inconspicuously.
"If it really doesn't work, let's report it to the stationmaster and ask him to report directly to Jianfeng and let Li Ya give up his stupid behavior." Yu Zecheng pretended not to see it and said.
"Disaster.
"Haven't you noticed that the stationmaster has been skipping work and being late for work recently?
"It's obvious that the stationmaster doesn't have the energy to keep up. He may not care about these trivial matters. Let's not cause him trouble." Lu Qiaoshan sneered.
"Yes.
"The last time he went to the hospital for a checkup, the doctor said he had high blood pressure, fatty liver, prostatitis and a bunch of other problems. The stationmaster really lost some of his energy and said he would retire in 49 at the latest.
"If I count on my fingers, it will only take a year."
Hong Zhiyou also spread some rumors so that Lu Qiaoshan and Li Ya would kill more fiercely and hastily.
Sure enough, when Lu Qiaoshan heard this, his eyes lit up: "Zhiyou, are you serious?"
"Old Lu, you asked this question.
"Zhiyou is the stationmaster's son-in-law, how could he be fake?" Yu Zecheng said with a smile.
“Yes, yes.
"You two, now that the stationmaster has stepped down, who can..." Lu Qiaoshan pointed in the direction of the stationmaster's office.
“I heard that the new station chief of Shancheng Station is a colonel in his forties.
“Also at the Shanghu Station, the person who was supposed to come up was the deputy stationmaster.
“It’s just that the operation was not in place, so the headquarters was parachuted in.
“The situation is different now than it was in the past.
“In order to coordinate strategic materials, the Commission Chairman tends to promote people from deputy positions upwards. Firstly, it saves the time for parachuted leaders to get familiar with and cooperate with them. Secondly, it is more convenient and concise for deputy positions who have deep roots in the local area to handle things.
"In my opinion, whoever of you or Li Ya can take the position of deputy station chief will get the position when the station chief retires next year."
Yu Zecheng analyzed.
"Yes.
“In the past, the rules for Type A stations were that they had to be manned by generals, so they could only be airdropped.
"Now that the war has begun, it gives us an opportunity.
"In other words, whoever gets the position of deputy station chief will also get the position of station chief."
Lu Qiaoshan lowered his voice, looked at the two of them and said.
“Old Lu, it’s not us, it’s just you and Li Ya.
“I am a lieutenant colonel and Zhiyou is a major.
"There's no chance for us."
Yu Zecheng waved his hand.
"In my opinion, this battle will have to last for another ten or twenty years. Old Lu, you might even live to be seventy years old." Hong Zhiyou cheered him up with a smile.
“Not until 70, but definitely within or years.
“Now that the red tickets are on the rise, it’s not easy to suppress them.
"It doesn't matter. Ten or eight years is enough."
Lu Qiaoshan smiled confidently.
"Old Lu, looking at the situation, you...you have figured it out?" Yu Zecheng asked in surprise.
"Ha ha.
“I can’t tell you now, because if I tell you it won’t work.
"We'll know when the time comes."
Lu Qiaoshan laughed and waved his hand.
In his hand he held the card of Tang Dachun, as well as the "deep sea" intelligence worth thirty gold bars that he had copied from Shangbo's house some time ago.
Once it is revealed, Li Ya will surely die.
Moreover, Shangbo is still imprisoned in the prison of the Security Command.
Although it was a bit unethical, just like Li Ya's interrogation of Xie Ruolin, who would go against thirty large yellow croakers these days?
Since Li Ya set the precedent, character and other things have long been worthless.
If you can grab it, grab it. Buying it is absolutely impossible.
"That's right, Xiao Hong.
"I have another thing I want you to do. Spread the news that the Bureau of Secrets poisoned Qian Siming.
"Let those newspapers be distributed."
Lu Qiaoshan had already assumed the authority of a stationmaster and raised his hand to give orders.
"Old Lu, this will bring disgrace to the station. If Director Mao and the stationmaster find out, they will probably be furious." Yu Zecheng pretended to be embarrassed and shook his head to persuade him.
“Just let it out.
"The stationmaster has a scale in his heart, and he knows who has done it.
“When Director Mao and Jianfeng come to investigate, I wonder how some people will be able to carry out their wishful thinking.
"This is called...fighting poison with poison."
Lu Qiaoshan spread his hands, looking relaxed.
"Okay, I'll arrange it.
"But let me make it clear first, if anything goes wrong you will have to take the responsibility, Old Lu, and Old Yu will be the witness." Hong Zhi was about to put an ad in the newspaper, which was exactly what he wanted.
"Don't worry, I'll take responsibility." Lu Qiaoshan said.
Seeing that the conversation was almost over, he patted the armrest of the sofa, stood up and said, "Let's go."
……
After Lu Qiaoshan left, Hong Zhiyou asked, "Has Chen Yan left?"
"We'll arrive at Jinhai at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." Yu Zecheng said.
“Well, you have to be alert and tell General Suppression’s daughter not to delay the call. It would be best if Chen Changjie could rush to the rescuer as soon as possible.
"Otherwise, with Lu Qiaoshan's ruthlessness, Professor Chen will have to suffer physical pain."
Hong Zhiyou reminded.
“Yes, if Commander Chen doesn’t arrive in time… we need to have a contingency plan.
"look……"
Yu Zecheng thought for a moment, then moved closer and laid out his plan.
……
