Chapter 797 The Old Shadow of the Republic of China (84) Three in One(2/2)
Whether it is trying to detain someone or assassinate it, this is not appropriate. This is deliberate destruction of peace.
The two of them were talking, and after breakfast the next day, they went out to move freely, with only the copper hammer and Bai Yuan.
Since getting off the plane yesterday, Tong Hammer seemed anxious. Lin Yutong knew that he was thinking about his mother.
"Aunt Tong..." Lin Yutong whispered, "Let's take a look from afar later."
The copper hammer wrapped his head and face tightly. Seeing that there was no outsider, he said, "It's okay. When I left, I left enough money for my family. There are oceans, silver, and gold bars. I also told my mother not to believe in legal currency. Now there is hard currency, and I can't be hungry. As long as I can't be hungry, I think it's okay."
Bai Yuan whispered: "If you really don't feel at ease, just go back and meet. Now the bank has said that people are not allowed to keep gold and silver privately, and they must exchange them for fiat currency. I was caught with gold and silver and confiscated directly. I will talk to my family about this..."
The copper hammer was a little hesitant, wanting to see the old man, but also afraid of implicating the old man.
As soon as the four of them left, they followed their tails, and they seemed to be staring at each other, and they were really not free. The Fourth Master simply didn't mention going to see his family and walked around the streets. He had no purpose, just to walk around. The most crowded one was the grain shop. He climbed in the snow for half a day, took a big bundle of money and exchanged one or two kilograms of grain, three or five kilograms of grain. These were just coarse grains. If you want to eat fine grains, you have to buy them on the black market. This market is priceless. I heard it is the relief grain from the United States.
The more I looked at the copper hammer, the more frightened he became, "I'm not as good as us."
That's true. It's better to live with this little relief food in January, let alone eat enough, it would be nice to not starve to death.
After a long time of shopping, I was about to find a restaurant to have lunch when someone ran over, "You guys, please, please wait for a long time."
Lin Yutong glanced at the Fourth Master and asked, "Who?"
Who is waiting for them?
"Zheng Dong." The Fourth Master pulled Lin Yutong and said to Tong Chuan and Bai Yuan, "Let's go. Someone treats you."
The restaurant was quiet. It was definitely not because there were no guests when it snowed, but because someone had booked the restaurant. As soon as he entered the hall, a wave of heat came to his face. Someone stood at the entrance of the stairs on the second floor and said aloud: "Brother Jin, brother and sister, I haven't seen each other for many years, so why don't you be fine."
The Fourth Master also bowed and said hello, "My brother is also quite handsome."
Lin Yutong smiled and followed the Fourth Master, walked up the stairs, and nodded at Zheng Dong. This person was not very old, but it was obvious that he had lived a good life over the years.
Zheng Dong smiled, "My brother and sister are getting more and more beautiful. Qinbei's place is supporting people."
The wind and sand are so strong, where can we support people?
Lin Yutong replied politely, "You can still speak."
Greeting each other, the guest and host sat down. Tong Hammer stood at the entrance of the stairs, and Bai Yuan followed him and stood behind the Fourth Master without leaving.
Zheng Dong looked at it and laughed, "You are like you, you are always popular everywhere."
The Fourth Master smiled and did not respond to his words, but said, "We can be regarded as well-knowing people. Just say anything if you have anything to say. It also takes courage to contact us like this. If you talk here for a long time, I am afraid it will not be of any benefit to you. Let's just tell me a long story."
Zheng Dong reached out and took the teapot and touched the Fourth Master for a while, then whispered: "I said I want to ask my brother to help me and find a way to ask me to leave. I don't know if you are willing to help."
The Fourth Master frowned: "It's not difficult to leave, why did you ask me for it? Have you had a quarrel with Qiao Handong?"
"He has too much appetite." Zheng Dong took a deep breath, "But even if I give him all the money I earned over the years, he might not be willing to give up."
"Why is this?" The Fourth Master leaned on the back of the chair, "From my understanding of the man, you are not a person who will leave no way out."
Zheng Dong waved his hand, "Don't laugh at me. I'm also greedy. Two years ago, I tried to send my yellow-faced woman to the United States to reunite with her children. I have tried to make her cash for the things at home over the years and asked her to take her with her Swiss bank. With this money, the mother and son would not suffer outside. The comfort of the past is enough. At that time, in order to send her abroad, I did ask a few Japanese businessmen to take my wife to Hong Kong first and then to the United States. Qiao Handong knew about this. Now he is holding this handle and must ask me to spit out all the property. But where can I vomit? The orders left are all counted. I still regret it now. If I hadn't been reluctant to leave this future, why would I have to... I would have gone with my wife long ago?"
Sometimes Lin Yutong really thinks Zheng Dong is very interesting. He also looks for women outside, but he seems to have done a good job with his wife. Compared with other people, it is really good. If there is danger, he will take care of his wife first. Without saying a word, he will take care of his wife and take all the property to his wife. He is afraid that his wife and children will suffer outside. He says he has no money, but he really has no money. If he can have other ways, he will not run to the Fourth Master for help.
The Fourth Master turned the cup in his hand and said, "Since you have found me, you must have the bargaining chips to trade with me. Tell me, what is it?"
"Happy!" Zheng Dong looked around and approached the Fourth Master and whispered: "I have hidden the equipment in the machinery factory. If you need it, you can take it away at any time. You don't need to take it for the penny!"
The Fourth Master was startled, "You are..."
Zheng Dong smiled self-deprecatingly, "The capital fell into the hands of the Japanese that day. Although I was not talented, I couldn't do anything to sell the country and seek honor. I secretly dismantled the equipment and then burned the factory with a fire. My own people were useless, but I knew that the Japanese were not cheap."
This was something Lin Yutong didn't expect. Qiao Handong said that Zheng Dong was a traitor, but as long as Zheng Dong handed over this thing, no one could say that Zheng Dong was a traitor. This was definitely not something that a traitor did. But Zheng Dong didn't say anything, even if Qiao Handong forced him to take the property, he insisted on not saying it.
As if he understood the meaning of Lin Yutong's eyes, Zheng Dong smiled helplessly, "Old Qiao is not a bad person in my eyes. On the contrary, he has the ability and skills. But such a person has begun to make money crazy now. What about the other people in the authorities? Is there any hope? But I have too deep connection with them, and they are the same color as them from the inside out. It is precisely because I can't see hope in them that I have to go abroad. Otherwise, I will hand over the things directly to them and immediately become a hero and model, get promoted and wealth, and immediately usher in the peak of my life. But what's the use? It can't last. Since it can't last, it's better to break from the root and really change it for a long time. In the short term, it can help me get rid of the current predicament. In the long term, I still think that one day I will come back. After I die, I can still call me to return to my roots."
Bai Yuan interrupted afterwards, "Then why not stay? You have made contributions to us."
Zheng Dong glanced at Bai Yuan, smiled and said nothing. This child was still too young.
"Is it a question of faith?" Bai Yuan asked in confusion.
Zheng Dong smiled: "What kind of faith do people like me talk to me about? The only faith is to live. Of course, it is best to be able to live well."
Of course I can stay, but what afterwards?
The Fourth Master and Lin Yutong understood Zheng Dong's concerns. The label on him was too obvious. In fact, leaving, it was indeed the best choice for him. The Fourth Master did not refuse, "Brother, wait for my news. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be enough to satisfy the brother."
Zheng Dong loosened his shoulders, "That's great. During this period, many people are trying to get out. Especially the current banking policy, which forces everyone to live a life. It's not okay if they don't go out. In this world, who is not using gold to maintain their value, but they just ask people to hand over the gold for fiat currency. Isn't this an open robbery? All the gold from the people is collected. What do their government want to do? It's not like to rob it forcing me to rob it!"
When will you not leave now?
This is true. The richer you are, the more you have to leave, otherwise your property will not be preserved.
Zheng Dong told the Fourth Master about other things, "...I know all these dirty things about them. The Song family's company transported the relief grains out, saying that they were given to a certain army's military rations, and collected all the money from others. He turned his back and refused to admit it, and sold all the food to another army. As a result, the people in the capital could not buy food, and the two armies almost fought for the military rations. Now this matter has not been made yet, and it has been suppressed. A part of the relief grains was allocated from the new batch of relief grains to suppress the two armies. But the food in the capital is even less than enough. Look, it won't take long to double the price of this food. They are all fucking bastards."
"Are you so bold now?" The Fourth Master was still a little surprised, "How many days have you won?"
"How many days?" Zheng Dong sneered: "This reselling military ration is not something that is only available now, and there is nothing rare. I am afraid. This batch of relief grain was agreed to be rationed for these students in the capital. If the student had no food to eat, it would be no joke if it started. Now they have demolished the east wall to repair the west wall, but the shortage has existed. No matter how much it is supplemented, it will be a part of it. It will be a matter of time before it gets a mess." Speaking of this, he thought of something and turned his face to Lin Yutong and said, "In the past few years, I have asked someone to take care of your family. There is nothing wrong with the family. I promise you this. The food has been fully stocked for the family, and there is no problem with eating it for two or three years. We are all old friends, and Huaizi and I are old brothers. All that I can do for you."
Look at this person who has done the work, it is impossible to accept this favor without taking it.
The Fourth Master also simply said, "Then you just pack up your things. Just arrange for you to leave in the past two days. Maybe you can still rush over to celebrate the New Year with your sister-in-law."
Zheng Dong laughed, "Brother is doing things in a straightforward manner. I still like to deal with people like you. One is one, two is two. Since you are so straightforward, then brother will send you another message. Qiao Handong may have taken action recently. He plans to throw this damn pot of destroying peace on you. So, be careful and careful. This person still needs to be careful." As he said that, he stood up, took out a note and stuffed it to the Fourth Master, "This is the place where the equipment of the machinery factory hides. As soon as possible, I will ask someone to take it away. I will wait for your news. We will have a long mountain and long rivers, and there will be a date in the future."
The Fourth Master stood up and bowed his hand, watching Zheng Dong leave. Then he glanced at the address on the note, then handed the note to Lin Yutong and asked her to put it away.
Lin Yutong accepted it without looking at it, "What about us now? Should we have a meal or go back?"
‘Let’s have dinner.’ The Fourth Master called Tong Chuan over, “Don’t stand, eat first.”
But the restaurant’s food is not as delicious as the reception desk. There are vegetables, meat, and fine rice and white noodles. The restaurant now has no function to order dishes. Lin Yutong looked at the guy, "Then what do you have here?"
"The best thing is to steam cereals." The guy spread his hands together, "At least it is fine grain, and all that is left are big shits and pickles."
Steamed cereal, what kind of rice is this?
The guy was amused when he saw Lin Yutong's confused look, "You don't know, don't mention the fine grains outside. The wheat is mixed with sand and gravel and crushed into pieces. We finally cleaned the grains, but we originally bought two kilograms, but now we don't have enough pure grains per kilogram. If we get the wheat bran out, how much can it be eaten? So, let's eat them alive. To be honest, it's not easy to find a second one to eat fine grains after leaving our store."
So Lin Yutong ate steamed cereals. Then she realized that steaming cereals is like making rice, and steaming the whole wheat in a pot. This is the first time eating wheat by eating rice. I won’t talk about it until my mouth is pulled. The key is that it will probably be a bit difficult to go to the toilet after eating it. The crust of the wheat particles cannot be digested from the stomach.
As a result, at night, Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master were not doing anything, and Bai Yuan had a stomachache and could not digest it.
This meal was really a disaster.
Lin Yutong gave Bai Yuan an injection, and the Fourth Master went to discuss the matter with Captain Yang. Tong Chuan took advantage of the night and went back to see Aunt Tong.
As a result, it was after twelve o'clock and the Fourth Master had not come back yet, Tong Chuan came back first, "I went to see Uncle Lin."
This is about Lin Dehai.
Lin Yutong handed over a cup of hot tea, "How is it? Is your health okay?"
"I didn't go in, just listened to the movement outside the house." Tong Chuan sighed, "I heard the snoring sound, it's not too small. I'm fine for the time being."
This is really a good person who doesn’t live long, and it will last for thousands of years.
Lin Yutong couldn't say this, and just smiled self-deprecatingly, "My brother and Yang Zi have both died several times. The old man smoked so much cigarettes, and he could live so healthy... It's so... so lucky." She didn't want to talk about this person, so she quickly asked Aunt Tong, "See you? Is the old man still healthy? I will definitely be happy when I know that Hu Niu will call her grandma."
Tonghai smiled suddenly, "My mother is in good health. I know she is so happy to know she has a granddaughter." He said a few words and then said to Lin's mother, "The situation is probably not very good for the old lady. My mother said she had seen Aunt Lin several times. Xingzi's biological father became a traitor and was the president of the Maintenance Association. She is now in the liquidation. Yang Zi has such a father, and this is really..."
Lin Yutong's expression changed involuntarily...
