"It's also your kind heart, otherwise this child would have been in a mass grave long ago." Cheng Qianfan said, brewing a cup of tea for his wife.
Bai Ruolan is kind-hearted and always gives away some food and clothing when she meets a hungry little beggar. Simao is a little beggar. If Bai Ruolan hadn't helped her, the child would have frozen to death on the streets last winter.
At that time, Bai Ruolan asked someone to make Simao a bowl of hot soup, a few hot cakes, and asked the little maid Lizi to take two Xiaobao's old cotton jackets to Simao, which saved the little beggar's life.
Now Simao is no longer a beggar who is begging, but under the introduction of Bai Ruolan, she runs to the small restaurants around and delivers food to the small restaurants.
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda." Bai Ruolan said with a smile. She glanced at her husband. She felt that her husband was in a good mood and couldn't help but joke, "What kind of happy event has Mr. Cheng encountered?"
"I feel naturally happy when I see you." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
The appearance of Simao is the secret code that Cheng Xuyuan has been successfully rescued.
This made Cheng Qianfan feel very good. Among the many senior executives in Shanghai, he had a good impression of Secretary Cheng, who had always been lucky.
Bai Ruolan asked Linda to go shopping at Xianshi Department Store, so she did not stay in the police room for too long. She soon took Xiaobao, Xiaozhima, and left under the protection of the little maid Lizi and the bodyguards.
After Cheng Qianfan processed the official documents and letters in the office for a while, Liu Dada came to the Political Department to look for Pete.
"Authentic German beer?" Cheng Qianfan picked up the beer on Pitt's desk, glanced at it, and said jokingly.
This sentence won Pete's shame and anger, and he grabbed the beer.
The biggest report in the newspaper about the distant European battlefield is the good neighborly friendship between French soldiers and German soldiers.
Previously, when Poland was fighting with German tanks with cavalry, Britain was slowly mobilizing expeditionary forces from its homeland, while France mobilized its troops to the Maginot Line and hid under the steel fortifications and stood by.
The two sides had clearly declared war, but an extremely joking scene appeared on the battlefield.
On both sides of the Rhine, the German and French troops faced each other across the bank. Both sides set up cannons, excavating fortifications and expressing "friendliness" to each other:
French soldiers exchanged their own wine for beer with German soldiers.
For German soldiers, French soldiers were very envious of the ability to obtain wine and other military supplies.
For French soldiers, life is very pleasant without fighting and drinking the most authentic German tan beer.
In addition, in order not to make the soldiers on the front line too bored, the considerate French government urgently allocated funds to purchase a large number of cultural, sports and entertainment equipment and facilities, including football with a total of 10,000.
"Zero Linxi" recently reprinted the report sent by a special battlefield reporter from Le Parisien from the Maginot Line:
On the position where the French and German armies confronted each other, under the guns of the German troops, French soldiers drank wine, sang songs, played football, and leisurely enjoyed the war time that was not like war.
Even when French soldiers were playing football matches, German soldiers on the other side cheered and encouraged them.
When there are exciting goals, German soldiers will whistle, applaud, and even shoot guns into the sky to celebrate.
At that time, the British were shocked by this. The British mocked the French: The brave French defended the Maginot line with singing, dancing and football. Do our Royal Expeditionary Force still need help?
By reprinting battlefield reports in the UK and France, Shanghai citizens were shocked to learn about a European battlefield that was amazed by most Chinese:
In order to avoid the soldiers being too anxious and bored, French singing and dancing stars kept coming to the front line to comfort the army.
The Germans on the other side of the Rhine even climbed up the high ground to facilitate the enjoyment of the most fashionable Parisian songs and dances.
Even a French singer and dance star sang a German song.
In response, the German propaganda minister personally ordered a return gift the next day - the German army played French songs, which brought cheers and cheers from French soldiers.
This incident was widely reported by French media, and the people were filled with a sense of peace:
Germany is not the enemy of France, and it can coexist between France and Germany. This idea is very popular in France.
It is in this war model that the Chinese cannot understand that Poland, which firmly believed that Britain and France came back to help it, was divided up by Germany and Russia while waiting and had long been destroyed.
"If you are here to make sarcasm, I don't welcome you." Pete said unhappily. Britain and France betrayed their security commitment to the Poles and watched Poland be divided up by Germany and the Soviet Union. Especially in this context, the friendly exchanges between the French and German troops that can be seen everywhere in the newspapers make Pete, who has always been proud of the powerful French Republic, feels quite shameless.
"This is not a mockery, it is a compliment to peace." Cheng Qianfan directly opened the bottle of beer produced in Marseille, France. Without using a wine glass, he just drank it in front of the bottle.
He pulled a chair and sat down, "Peter, this is a good thing. The war has not expanded. Peace is still the main theme over Europa. This is the best news for us, isn't it?"
Pete admitted that his friend's words made sense. Except for Poland's destruction, Britain and France declared war on Germany. This incident that terrified the whole of Europe and the whole world did not seem to have caused any greater consequences. The war did not expand, and doves of peace were still flying above Europe, and the ocean trade affected by the beginning of the declaration of war also returned to normal-
For them, the most direct impact was the recovery of ocean freight between Jiujiu Trading and the French mainland. Just a few days ago, among the ocean freighters set sail from the Port of Marseille, there were a batch of scarce commodities belonging to Jiujiu Trading.
"I'm going to increase the price of this batch of goods by 40%. " Cheng Qianfan said suddenly slowly, pruning the cigar.
"No, no, no." Pete shook his head, "It can't rise any more. I heard that the gentlemen who were picking up the goods were already protesting."
"Europa is full of clouds, and the most intimate product in the fashion capital is just a 40% increase. This is already very conscientious, okay?" Cheng Qianfan glanced at Pitt, and his expression seemed to be despising for a businessman to oppose making more money.
"It's different now." Pete insisted on his opinion. "Thanks to the newspaper reports, Shanghai citizens know what the Europa war is, and the gentlemen who are taking the goods will not agree."
"They will." Cheng Qianfan smoked, lit a cigar, and took a sip. "Just say that the Germans attacked ocean ships, and the goods in the future will become increasingly scarce."
"Why don't you say that it was the German soldiers who ransacked the nylon stockings on the ship?" Pete said, shaking his head.
"Good idea!" Cheng Qianfan snapped his fingers.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he heard the slight movement inside.
As expected, as he expected, he came directly to the door without saying a word. Pete's graceful girlfriend didn't have time to leave, and she was hiding in the inner room at this moment...
...
"Where are people, where have people gone?"
"Who can explain it to me!"
"Where are people?"
At No. 76, Jisifeier Road, in the office of the deputy director of the agent headquarters, Li Cuiqun, who had always been elegant, was extremely angry and drooled.
Previously, I caught Xiao Mianzhi's important member of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group, and just pried open the man's mouth, and the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group under him was about to destroy Xiao Mian and his command.
Then, the "little Taoist priest" was actually robbed in broad daylight.
On the 76th, the plan to capture the Shanghai Special Information Group was in vain.
Now, Wan Sanliang decisively surrendered after being arrested, and soon received good news - the Shanghai District of the Military Control Commission actually handed Cheng Xuyuan to his door.
As long as you catch Cheng Xuyuan and pry open the man's mouth, you will catch the entire Military Control Commission Shanghai District, including Chen Gongshu, in one go, which is not an extravagant hope.
However, the joint between Wan Sanliang and Cheng Xuyuan was unexpected twice in a row. The agent headquarters laid a net of heaven and earth, which actually ordered Cheng Xuyuan to escape!
Seeing that the great achievements of the sky are close at hand twice, but they miss each other again and again, how could Li Cuiqun lose his composure?
"Brother Li, at present, Cheng Xuyuan may still be trapped by us in and around Robert's Road." Chen Mingchu cleared his throat and said, "It is too early to say that Cheng Xuyuan has escaped."
"Cheng Xuyuan has been rescued by them." Li Cuiqun shook his head slowly, "At least, Chen Gongshu is now sure that Cheng Xuyuan is safe."
Chen Mingchu and others glanced at Li Cuiqun, without saying much or asking more. Obviously, Deputy Director Li was so confident, which shows that Li Cuiqun must have an intelligence channel that they did not know within the Shanghai District of the Military Control Commission.
In other words, No. 76 has a secret chess inside the Military Control Commission Shanghai District.
However, this dark chess should be of average level and cannot reach the core. Otherwise, Deputy Director Li should be able to master more accurate information.
Li Cuiqun saw the expressions of several people, so he naturally had no intention of explaining.
The reason why he made the judgment that Cheng Xuyuan might have been rescued or that Cheng Xuyuan successfully escaped was that because the information from the 76th secret chess in the Shanghai District of the Military Control Commission was released, their contact with the district headquarters had been restored.
Cheng Xuyuan is the second-ranked figure in the Military Control Commission Shanghai District. Once this person is arrested and spoke, it will be a disaster for the entire Military Control Commission Shanghai District.
However, now the Shanghai District Headquarters has resumed contact with its affiliated units, which only shows one thing:
The threat was lifted!
As well, Cheng Xuyuan is safe.
...
After listening to the reports of Dong Zhengguo, Wan Sanliang, Chen Mingchu, Hu Sishui and others, Li Cuiqun's expression even became dull for a moment, and he felt his brain hurt:
What a mess?!
"Wait a minute, say one by one." Li Cuiqun waved his hand and frowned.
It's too messy, he wants to sort it out.
Li Cuiqun picked up the pen, he quickly recorded the miscellaneous reports and clues in the notebook. Finally, as he wrote and painted, the messy stitches were finally cleared.
While blocking Robertson Road and surrounding areas on the 76th, searching for Cheng Xuyuan and the whereabouts of the Military Control Commission woman, an accident first occurred.
The most fierce thief in the Yangtze River in Shanghai is said to have appeared on Fansandu Road.
This person has committed frequent crimes recently and is extremely arrogant. Some robbed rich people have paid a huge sum of money to arrest the "blood bat".
It is precisely because of this huge amount of money that the French Concession and the public concession related police stations have "secretly" sent people to gather at the Sandu Road in Fantasy to search for "blood bats".
