While Zhang Jinlu was interrogating Duan Qiushui, Hu Suozhu came outside Lin Chuang's office to ask for an audience.
After Yi Lianhua informed Lin Chuang, Lin Chuang was shocked and thought: "Why is Hu Suozhu here? Did something happen to Duan Qiushui?"
"Let him come in." Lin Chuang ordered quietly.
Yi Lianhua went out and asked Hu Suozhu to come in.
Hu Suozhu closed the door, hurriedly walked to Lin Chuang, and whispered: "Boss, Boss Jiang wants to see you."
Lin Chuang stood up and asked: "Where is he? He came to the factory?"
"No, he said he would wait for you at the Chunjiang Teahouse on Sanma Road." Hu Suozhu said.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Lin Chuang whispered.
"Director Hu, the output of your workshop is not good this month. You need to work harder." Immediately afterwards, Lin Chuang said in a normal tone.
"Yes, boss, I will definitely urge the workers to increase production as soon as possible." Hu Suozhu replied.
"Okay, you go back." Lin Chuang said.
"Yes, goodbye boss." Hu Suozhu withdrew politely.
Lin Chuang didn't waste any time. He told Yi Lianhua that he was going to meet a friend, and then took Ji Laoliu and Li Honglin to Sanma Road.
Let Ji and Li wait in the car, while Lin Chuang entered the Chunjiang Teahouse alone.
There were not many people in the teahouse, only three tables of tea-drinking guests, a shopkeeper, and a waiter.
Lin Chuang immediately saw Jiang Shan sitting in the innermost room, drinking tea from a pot.
Lin Chuang took a quick look and saw that the tea patrons, the shopkeeper and the waiter didn't recognize each other, and there was nothing unusual about them.
"Boss Jiang, hello." Lin Chuang said hello and walked quickly towards Jiangshan.
"Hello, Boss Lin, please take a seat." Jiang Shan stood up to greet him.
The two hugged each other's fists as a courtesy and sat across from each other.
"As soon as this pot of tea starts to taste, Boss Lin is here. You're in for a treat." Jiang Shan smiled and poured a cup for Lin Chuang.
"Those who are blessed with the Way don't have to be busy. Well, Biluochun, good tea." Lin Chuang took the tea and took a sip while answering.
"Why did you choose here?" Lin Chuang put down the carved porcelain cup in his hand and asked in a low voice.
"You just went to my store tomorrow night. I was afraid that it would be difficult for you to tell me, so you chose here." Jiang Shan replied in a low voice.
Lin Chuang nodded.
Jiangshan is very considerate.
Indeed, although Ji Laoliu and Li Honglin were both his confidants, they did not know their underground party identities, and Lin Chuang did not intend to tell them unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Xia Geng has been arrested." Jiang Shan said straight to the point without any further foreshadowing.
"What?" Lin Chuang was shocked: "How is it possible? He doesn't know who Zhang Jinlu is?"
"No, he knows." Jiang Shan said.
"Just because he knew, that's why he didn't escape?" Lin Chuang was stunned, chewing on this sentence, and soon understood the meaning.
"You mean, he was afraid that I would be exposed, so he deliberately pretended not to know?" Lin Chuang asked.
"Yes. Xia Geng is an important cadre of our party, so the organization assigned him a guard who pretended to be a rickshaw driver to secretly protect him. When Xia Geng came out of the 'Xianle Dance Palace', he was riding in this comrade's car
, he asked this comrade to inform the organization that Yin Li had rebelled, and asked the comrades who had been exposed to move. At that time, the comrade asked him why he did not evacuate immediately. He said that it was not easy for one of our comrades to break into the enemy's interior, and he had to protect this comrade.
The safety of gay people.
Because of discipline, he did not say who this comrade was, but the leaders of the Ministry of Social Affairs immediately knew it was you after receiving my telegram." Jiang Shan replied.
"Xia Geng is too rigid, isn't he? I have the means to protect myself, why should he worry so much?! Isn't this the more he worries, the more chaotic he gets?" Lin Chuang said angrily.
"How can you talk like that? What do you think of the selflessness of a comrade? Regardless of whether you have any means of self-protection, the first thing he thinks about is your safety, not his own. In this way, he can turn his back to
Don't you feel lucky for his comrades?" When Jiang Shan heard Lin Chuang's words, he immediately scolded him in a low voice.
"Don't be angry, I know he is doing it for my own good, and I am also very touched, but what I want to say is that Li Shiqun will not do anything to me in this matter, and Zhang Jinlu himself will conceal it for me. Since I did that,
There must be no danger. Of course, Xia Geng is right, after all, he doesn’t know who I am or whether I have any means to protect myself." Lin Chuang said quickly.
"I'm not blaming you. I think fundamentally, you still don't pay enough attention to Li Shiqun. Zhang Jinlu will cover up for you, and others will also cover up for you? If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself. As long as you
If you do it, don't expect others to cover it up for you. Once Li Shiqun knows that you have appeared in the 'Xianle Dance Palace' and that you shouted so loudly at the most critical moment of the operation, will he doubt you? I did it last night
I've pointed it out to you, but it seems you still haven't reflected deeply." Jiang Shan said.
"Okay, okay, don't say this anymore. I'll just pay attention in the future. Do you have a mission to see me?" Lin Chuang was not very convinced by Jiang Shan's statement, although what he said made sense.
But he didn't want to get entangled in this matter, so he quickly changed the topic.
"That won't work. We have to talk about it. If we don't explain this matter clearly, it won't be over." Jiang Shan couldn't be fooled and insisted on lingering on this issue.
"Okay, okay, consider me wrong, okay?" Lin Chuang also had a headache when he met such a person. Why is it like a dog-skin plaster that can't be taken off after it sticks on?
"Then after?" Jiang Shan asked.
"In the future, I will do my best to help my comrades while ensuring my own safety." Lin Chuang had no choice but to express his position.
"Yes, that's right, don't take any risks." Jiang Shan was satisfied.
"Lao Jiang, did the superiors ask me to save Xia Geng?" Lin Chuang asked.
"Xia Geng must be saved. That's why I came to you." Jiang Shan said.
"Don't worry, I'll get started immediately. It's very easy for me to do this. Just this? Then I'll go." Lin Chuang said and was about to get up.
"Sit down, sit down." Jiang Shan stopped him.
"Is there anything else?" Lin Chuang asked.
"On the matter of rescuing Xia Geng, you only need to provide information. Don't worry about the actual rescue. After all, you don't have anyone available. Also, we can't rule out the possibility that Li Shiqun will use Xia Geng to test you." Jiang Shan said.
"To untie the bell, you have to tie the bell. Xia Geng was imprisoned because of me, so naturally it was up to me to rescue him. As for the organization, just rest assured." Lin Chuang said.
"Comrade Ziwei, why don't you understand? The organization doesn't want you to take risks! Even Xia Geng, a stranger, understands that it is not easy to break into the enemy. Why did he risk his life to cover for you? Why don't you
Do you understand? Not only can you not be exposed to the Japanese, but you cannot be exposed to the military commanders either. You must have a long-term perspective!" Jiang Shan said.
"Then, don't I have a conscience?" Lin Chuang said.
"Is it difficult? It's easy to handle. The organization has given you another task. I hope you can complete it."
