"Comrade Lu Xiyan, considering that you violated the organization's regulations and made a decision to conduct opium transactions with others privately, although there are reasons and subjective mistakes are not entirely on you, they have caused irreversible consequences and impacts. So I will announce the punishment decision of the Southern Bureau on you, and I will give you a serious warning within the party and try every means to recover the consequences and impacts."

"Old Hu, I accept criticism and punishment from the organization, but now this batch of goods is in the hands of Huang Jinrong, and Zhang Xiaolin hopes that I can take action against him." After hearing the punishment decision, Lu Xiyan frowned.

"What's going on? Didn't this batch of opium be sold to Lu Jinshi? Why did it run into Huang Jinrong's hands again?" Hu Yunzhi asked in surprise.

"Isn't this Lu Jinshi known as the Qiqiao Linglong Heart? This time, I really learned it. This guy has also plotted against me." Lu Xiyan smiled awkwardly.

"Although you have encountered some difficulties these days, it's over. Someone should remind you. If we don't mention it, the enemy will give you a reminder." Hu Yunzhi said, "What is the purpose of Lu Jinshi? Why did he do this?"

"First, he wanted to completely mess up the water and take advantage of the troubled waters. Second, Tang Jin speculated that Lu Jinshi came to me and wanted to know whether I was an enemy or a friend."

"Don't he know your identity?"

"I guess he doesn't know. There are not many people in the Military Control Commission who know my true identity. Tang Jin and Cao Bin do not count. There are not many people who know about the senior management of the Military Control Commission. However, the possibility of these people leaking their secrets is extremely small. Besides, Dai Yunong is now cultivating his own direct forces in the rear, and the Qing Gang will stand aside in the future. How could he tell Lu Jinshi about my identity? I'm afraid that even Du Yuesheng doesn't know." Lu Xiyan said.

Tan Si has sent a telegram. The Yunnan-Vietnam Railway line now gives Dai Yunnong more than 100,000 oceans of income every month. He has money in his hands and is expanding his strength.

At this time, it was his honeymoon period with Dai Yunong. In Shanghai, Dai Yunong gave Tang Jin a death order, as long as he did not interact with the Communist Party, he would protect his safety at any time.

Of course, Dai Yunong would not tell Tang Jinming the specific reason.

The secret of smuggling money is that the fewer people know, the better. One more person knows, and one more dangerous. Dai Yunnong is not trustworthy.

In Dai Yunong's eyes, he was mostly a smuggling businessman, and he was also the agent who was pushed to the front of the "military advisor".

"Is there another possibility to contact the 'military advisor' through you?" Hu Yunzhi thought for a moment and suddenly asked.

"It's not impossible." Lu Xiyan nodded, "But if this is the case, why would he lie to me in this matter? I know that I will know sooner or later."

"Since this batch of opium has been in Huang Jinrong's hands, it will be difficult to get it back and destroy it. It will be difficult for you to handle it. Otherwise, I would call my superiors and explain your situation. The superiors should be able to understand it." Hu Yunzhi's way.

"I think about it again, don't be busy calling your superiors. I've thought about it and let Lao Ma notify you." Lu Xiyan shook his head and said, "By the way, there is another thing. Zhou Fuhai's wife Yang Shuhui suddenly came to her house the day before yesterday and wanted Meimei to be their representative of the 'Sixth'. Meimei refused on the grounds that she was not involved in politics and was not interested."

"Your wife has reported this matter as soon as possible, but I went to get the news myself. The superiors have no instructions yet. I don't know what their attitude is. Although you refused this time, what if there is another time? You have such a special relationship with Zhou Fuhai and his wife. Will it be possible to use it in the future? Comrade Lu Xiyan, I hope you will consider it." Hu Yunzhi's way.

"Lao Hu, is this what you mean, or what Lao Mao means?"

"Old Cat has considerations in this regard, but the key lies in you. Also, your current confidentiality level has been upgraded to the strategic level. The leaders of the central government know you. Old Cat can't make any decisions about your use, and you must report it to the central government before you can make a decision." Hu Yunzhi's way.

“Is it that important?”

"Don't underestimate yourself. Your current identity and position are so important to the party's work in the occupied areas of Shanghai. In addition to intelligence and materials, you can also do many things, such as providing protection to our comrades and patriots. Your identity can affect the decision to arrest the house. These are not something that anyone can have." Hu Yunzhi's way.

"When you say this, I seem to think I am really important." Lu Xiyan smiled.

"Stop talking, what are you going to do next?" Hu Yunzhi spat.

"I've lit this fire, it depends on how much it can burn."

"These people are all old people, and there are many smart people around you, so you are not afraid of being seen by them?" Hu Yunzhi said.

"So what, they have grudges between each other, they are both suspicious and have good face. As long as there is a little spark, the people below will start to move first." Lu Xiyan smiled, "Let's wait and see the show."

"I hope it's the same as you guessed."

...

After leaving Tongmin Tea House, Lu Xiyan got on the car.

"Go to the Northeast Tavern." It was already time to go, but it took two days to delay, so I had to go there now. Lu Xiyan was really curious about Luo Yaozu's identity.

He asked Guo Hanjie to check it, but there were not many clues, as if this person appeared out of thin air. The uncle of the Meng family was too mysterious.

Of course, you can't drive over directly. Yan Lei and Lu Xiyan parked their car at the Shanghai West Main Store of Meng'an Pharmacy, and then changed into ordinary clothes and rode their bicycles to the Northeast tavern.

"Two guests, are you having a meal?" The guy recognized Lu Xiyan as soon as he looked at him.

“Is there a private room?”

"Yes, please come in." The guy responded quickly and welcomed the two of them in.

It was still the same private room. The guy opened the door and let the two of them in. He turned on the fan hanging on the roof. It was windy and finally felt a little more comfortable.

"Two, what should I eat?"

"Call your boss over here." Lu Xiyan waved his hand lightly.

"Okay, wait, I'll call the boss." The guy also knew that Lu Xiyan came to have dinner just an excuse, and seeing his own boss was the goal.

Back kitchen.

"Boss, your niece is here."

"Oh, wait a moment, I've fried this dish. Saru is feeling uncomfortable today. The guests have urged this dish several times." Luo Yaozu nodded.

"Why do I go and say it?" the guy asked.

"No, it doesn't matter if he waits for a while, his family." Luo Yaozu raised the pot and said, "You go to the front to greet the guests, Xiao Wu can't be busy alone."

...

"Sir, why do you remember to come to this store again?" Yan Lei asked curiously.

"Haozi's wife is born, you must tell my uncle." Lu Xiyan smiled, picked up the teacup on the table, poured himself a cup of herbal tea, moistened his throat.

"Yes, yes, why did I forget this?"

"Of course, the main purpose of coming tonight is not for this matter, but you are not allowed to talk nonsense when you get home." Lu Xiyan said.

"What if my wife asks, how can I answer?" Yan Lei said in surprise.

"Just say I'm here to tell him what Meng Hao's wife gave birth to, don't mention anything else." Lu Xiyan said, "The matters involved here are too complicated, and I don't even understand."

"Oh, this is OK, but what are you going to say to this uncle?"

"You will know in a while." Lu Xiyan smiled mysteriously.

Lu Xiyan did not lie to Yan Lei. He did not understand many things about Luo Yaozu and the Meng family, especially Luo Yaozu himself, who used to do what he did in the past, and why he suddenly came back, and even met Meng Hao secretly to help him investigate and solve the case. What is the purpose of this?

He wanted to figure it out one by one.

After about five or six minutes, the curtain at the door moved, and Luo Yaozu's round face came in, his red face, nose and forehead were covered with sweat.

"Xiyan, I'm sorry, the kitchen is not equipped with enough staff, I went over and took the lead." Luo Yaozu walked in and explained.

"It's okay, uncle, we are our own family, don't worry. If you are busy, we can wait a little longer." Lu Xiyan smiled slightly.

"Actually, the guy I used to eat too much watermelon today and ran to the toilet a few times. Now that he is back, I will be liberated." Luo Yaozu smiled and said, "What should I eat, uncle, I will make it for you. The last time you ate was made by my chef. Today, uncle shows you his skills, how about it?"

"Okay, let's try your uncle's skills, too." Lu Xiyan naturally agreed.

"Wait, my uncle will make you some vegetables. Let's take a sip of them." Luo Yaozu went with a happy face again.

"Uncle, let me tell you good news. Haozi's wife is born, big fat boy, you are my uncle."

"Is that so, I have to celebrate even more." Luo Yaozu smiled even more when he heard the news, and he was happier than having a son.

"Boss, congratulations, Rongsheng's uncle!" Alai came over with a smile.

"Yes, today is a happy day. If you inform me, the boss will be happy. All guests will be 20% off tonight." Luo Yaozu ordered.

"Get ok!"

After a while, Luo Yaozu put out four cold dishes and four hot dishes. If three people eat it, it would be a waste.

However, it’s nothing to waste some happy days. If you can’t finish eating, you can still chill it and keep it for the next meal.

"Uncle, we can't drink the knife today, that wine is not suitable for drinking at this current season."

"How can I? If I only sell the saury now, will my small shop still have business?" Luo Yaozu smiled, "I have prepared cool beer long ago."

"Oh, is that?"

"Alai, bring the wine in." Luo Yaozu shouted.

"Come on, boss."

Alai came in with a basket, which contained seven or eight bottles of beer. Looking at the trademark on the bottle, it was You Beer produced by the Shanghai Brewery.

This is one of the three most popular beer brands in Shanghai. The Germans have advanced technology, rigorous technology and are very popular among Shanghai citizens.

"Originally, Jardine Beer tasted better, but now Jardine Beer Brewery has taken over the Japanese. Although the quality of the beer produced remains unchanged, drinking Jardine Beer is equivalent to giving money to the Japanese. We don't do that." Luo Yaozu smiled, opened the bottle, and gave the two of them a large glass and said, "This is all done with deep well water ice. It's hot weather, so drinking this is the most enjoyable!"

"Come on, let's go!"

"cheers!"

Not to mention, although this beer that has a deep well iced water still has a bitter taste, it tastes much more comfortable and is more enjoyable than eating ice cream.
