Look at your watch. It's very early. It's only six o'clock.
I was woken up by the violent sound of firecrackers.
"Crack, crackle, crackle..."
"Crack, crackle, crackle..."
The sound of firecrackers outside is getting louder and louder.
I remembered. Today is New Year’s Eve! It’s time for every family to have reunion dinner.
I hope I can have a peaceful reunion dinner today!
I hope Japanese spies won’t come to cause trouble...
To be on the safe side, he moved the reunion dinner to noon to avoid any unforeseen events at night.
In their line of work, I really hate the dark night.
Because the enemy often operates in the dark, they are also forced to work in the dark.
Over time, the biological clock is basically disrupted.
Being able to sleep soundly is simply perfect.
If you can sleep for three or four days and do nothing, you will be like a god.
Look outside the window. It's still dark. He didn't draw the curtains. It's still dark outside the window.
Lying on the bed in a daze.
It seems that there are only twenty days left before the 226 Incident.
I don’t know what the consequences of my nonsense plan 226 will be in the end.
If the historical trajectory does not change, this day should shock many people, especially the Japanese. It is expected that there will be temporary chaos.
So, do you have any chance?
Make money?
Fishing for people?
Or get some other benefits?
It seems that only I know the final result of the 226 mutiny. With a little use, I should be able to make a lot of money.
Take Jiang Guohu, for example. Go scare him and make sure that he is in a mess inside and finally kneels down and begs for mercy.
And the big thunderstorm plan that he made up...
Will it continue to ferment?
Will someone find out?
Can you find any opportunities to make money there?
Information or not, it’s not important. What’s important is getting rich!
U.S. dollars, pounds, gold bars, and silver dollars are all acceptable. But rubles, lire, etc., you won’t even pay them to death.
There is also fiat currency.
It is said that the headquarters has started to pay wages in legal currency.
Many people also think that fiat currency is good.
How short-sighted...
No paper currency can maintain its value as well as metal currency. By the middle of the year at most, legal tender will begin to depreciate. One dollar of legal tender can no longer be exchanged for one silver dollar in the free circulation market. By the end of the year, two legal tender dollars will not be exchanged for one silver dollar.
so……
He is absolutely unwilling to ask for legal currency.
However, this is implemented by the state. No one may refuse to use legal tender. Otherwise, it is illegal.
Moreover, the private sector is strictly prohibited from continuing to use silver dollars, and banks force exchange.
In other words, it is illegal to hide silver coins privately. Once caught, you will be dealt with. The silver coins will be confiscated.
This is the scary thing about power. It is above money.
“Tuk-tuk!”
“Tuk-tuk!”
Suddenly someone knocked on the door.
It seemed to be quite strong, and it made a loud knocking sound.
Zhang Yong:???
Please. Who is knocking on the door at this time?
Don't you know I haven't woken up yet?
Very important thing?
Knocked so hard.
I had no choice but to put on my clothes and go to open the door.
Outside the door was Natasha. She was wearing a military uniform and the rank of major. She looked very cool.
She's still very tall. She's taller than Zhang Yong. It's terrible. A woman is taller than me. By the way, I'm not short either. She's over 1.7 meters and has a standard build.
"What's up?"
"urgent telegram."
"Where did it come from?"
"look by youself."
Natasha handed him the telegram, a folder, and a pen.
Oh, it requires a signature. This was Zhang Yong's first time encountering this method of receiving telegrams. He felt like a leader. So he took the telegram and signed it to confirm that he had received it. Then Natasha turned around and left.
Never take a second look.
This woman is really a workaholic.
I definitely don't have a boyfriend.
She probably doesn't need a boyfriend either.
Her boyfriend will only affect her speed of sending and receiving messages, as well as deciphering them.
Close the door.
Read the telegram.
Oh, it's from the Air Raid Department.
It is a list of Hangzhou celebrities who are preparing to receive Shan Ying. The list is attached at the back.
Zhang Yong quickly looked to the end and found that Jiang Guohu, Ding Furong, and Li Guanghai were among them.
Yes, the Japanese spy did sneak in.
Jiang Guohu himself is a spy. Ding Furong has spies around him. Li Guanghai also has spies around him.
You can imagine with your knees how many spies there will be at the welcome banquet. If someone carries weapons or makes some conspiracy, then...
So, here comes the main event. The core content of the telegram is just four words: inspection and verification.
As the name suggests, everyone on the list must be reviewed and implemented one by one to ensure safety.
Well, the familiar smell is back.
This is the official document!
well……
Sure enough, having a radio station is no good.
All kinds of red tape and all kinds of things assigned by superiors are coming one after another.
In the past, he was so free. He could do whatever he wanted without anyone interfering with him. No one would arrange tasks every two days.
His only mission is to catch Japanese spies.
Caught. Not caught. No one cares.
But now, the situation has changed. Superiors have begun to deploy various daily tasks.
Whether the task has been completed or not requires timely feedback. The superiors will ask questions at any time.
There are three people in Natasha's telegraph team, and they are obviously ready to work in three shifts. They are online 24 hours a day and can send and receive telegrams at any time.
what to do?
What else can be done?
You must do what your superiors tell you.
The list must be verified. If the spy does anything, it will be his responsibility.
Who told him to be the future director of the Third Intelligence Division?
Although the current director of the department is Yang Lichu, she is just a decoration. She is the mouthpiece of that lady.
The credit belongs to Zhang Yong.
It was Zhang Yong who was at fault.
Eat enough to satisfy your thirst. Since you sit in this position, you have to work seriously.
If he wanted to, he could think further. Later, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, Chennault's Flying Tigers were also formed. Later, the National Air Force received a large amount of U.S. aid. The National Air Force might have to fight jointly with Britain and the United States.
…
Also, what about the Doolittle bombing? There are US military pilots who are going to land in China. They must be found and rescued as much as possible. You can even think of it with your knees. It must be his mission again. This is what he specializes in doing.
Plant alive.
What other hump routes are there...
All of this is without his protection.
The Third Intelligence Division of his is dedicated to catching spies, including but not limited to Japanese spies. Are you busy?
It's not even the beginning now.
Chennault hasn't come yet. Only when he comes will he take the first step.
Can the Japanese invaders allow Chennault to help the National Air Force train and fight in peace? Of course not. They will definitely try their best to sabotage it.
After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese invaders would definitely become even more crazy.
In short, on the day of the banquet, he must not let a spy appear in the banquet hall.
It's not okay to show up nearby.
This is his job and his responsibility.
Look at your watch.
It seems okay. There is no problem in having the reunion dinner.
get up.
I went next door to look for Yang Lichu and found that she was not there.
When I asked, I learned that she had already gone downstairs to have breakfast. Haha. This woman eats three meals a day on time.
So I went downstairs, found Yang Lichu, and sat down opposite her.
Unexpectedly, I discovered that Li Jingqian was also there. She actually came downstairs alone and sat quietly in the corner.
No one noticed her.
The latter said that no one dared to pay attention to her.
Because everyone knows that she was brought back by Zhang Yong himself.
Those crazy words about Zhang Yong...
In fact, it is also a good protection for her.
"I have a gift for you." Yang Lichu told him intentionally or unintentionally.
"A gift from you?" Zhang Yong looked forward to it very much.
"no."
"who?"
"This is given to you by the Air Force Department."
"Yeah?"
"Gao Yuanhang will deliver it soon."
"ah?"
Zhang Yong was surprised.
Gao Yuanhang personally sent it?
What is so precious?
He looked at Yang Lichu, hoping she would give him some hints. However, Yang Lichu deliberately remained silent, obviously trying to whet his appetite.
Zhang Yong:……
Okay. Then I will cooperate with you.
However, he is indeed a little curious. What will this New Year's gift be?
"Coming from the United States."
"What?"
"A gift I bought from the United States. It's very precious."
"Yeah?"
"Except for our Air Force, no one else can buy it. This is the only one. No one else has it."
"real?"
Zhang Yong couldn't help but become more curious.
What gift is so precious? It came from the United States? Could it be a plane?
No way……
In shock...
The Air Raid Department won't really send him a plane, right?
Bought from the United States. It’s unique to the Air Resources Department. It seems like there is nothing else but airplanes. However, giving away a plane is such an exaggeration...
Ten minutes later, someone came in. It was Gao Yuanhang.
Behind him were two orderlies, each holding a box.
Zhang Yong stood up quickly to greet him.
"Captain Gao!"
"Captain Zhang!"
"Captain Zhang, on the order of Minister Min, I send you two boxes of things. Please accept them."
"thanks, thanks!"
Zhang Yong shook hands with Gao Yuanhang and said some blessings.
Gao Yuanhang quickly said goodbye and left. He was obviously very busy.
After all, Chennault is coming. A lot of work at Jianqiao Airport has not been completed yet. The bosses are worried. Madam may come to inspect it in person in a few days.
Zhang Yong looked at the two boxes. Is this a gift from the United States? It turns out it’s not a plane!
Take it apart. Oh, it is indeed from the United States.
A box of cherries.
A box of plums.
This kind of cherry is also called cherry. At that time, it was not cultivated in China. It was only imported.
Plums are big, black, and are also translated as black plums. In 2000, they were still one of the imported noble fruits.
"Do you believe it now?"
"letter."
Zhang Yong nodded.
Suddenly something didn't feel right. Yang Lichu didn't seem to have it?
"you……"
"I don't."
Yang Lichu was very calm and then took action.
Zhang Yong then gave her two boxes of fruits. He really didn't care about them.
I had eaten it in my previous life. The cherries were okay. Forget about the brin. They were not delicious at all. That’s why they are so precious in this era.
"Give it all to you."
"Really? I won't be polite."
"You can take it back to your room and eat it slowly."
"What about her?"
Yang Lichu looked at Li Jingqian.
Li Jingqian looked out the window, like a statue, beautiful and empty.
At this moment, she didn't look like a fierce woman who would always pick up a gun to kill her enemies. Instead, she looked like a lady of a noble family.
"Don't give it to her."
Zhang Yong is quick-tongued and straightforward.
Li Jingqian has not recovered yet and cannot eat these fruits.
"Then I'll take it."
Yang Lichu smiled happily. She actually asked people to move all two boxes of fruits.
Zhang Yong doesn't like to eat, but she likes to eat. What a fool he is! He doesn't even know how precious these fruits are. It took a lot of effort to transport them back from abroad.
Not to mention the price, you have to be carefully cared for along the way, especially those cherries. The freight is expensive.
But even though this idiot has so much face, she doesn't even have it.
Really. These are all orders placed by the madam.
The quantity is very rare. Freeing up two boxes for Zhang Yong is definitely a great achievement.
Zhang Yong looked at Li Jingqian and did not bother him.
The years are quiet and peaceful.
Very rare.
In Hangzhou, this kind of peace can only last for two years at most.
