Chapter 873: Uninvited Guest
A strange car parked at the door of the house.
"Uncle Gui, whose car is this?" Lu Xiyan rang the doorbell, and it was Uncle Gui who opened the door, and then asked.
"I don't know you, but the man said he was your friend, an old acquaintance, and Young Master Hao is talking to the guests." Uncle Gui shook his head.
"Why are you putting someone you don't know?"
"He was alone and brought a lot of gifts. The wife said, since he was your friend, it wouldn't be nice if he just kept it out." Uncle Gui said, "But she was not convenient for her reception, so she asked Young Master Hao to come forward."
"Yes." Lu Xiyan nodded.
"Brother Lu, long time no see!" In the living room of the Lu family, a young man in a gray pigeon suit was talking to Meng Hao. Suddenly, he saw Lu Xiyan coming in from outside, and immediately stood up with an extremely happy expression.
"Chen Jie, why are you in Hong Kong?" Lu Xiyan was shocked. This was really an uninvited guest, an acquaintance, but he couldn't be a friend. But he never thought that he would suddenly appear in Hong Kong.
"Uncle knew that you were in Hong Kong, so I specially asked me to see you." Chen Jie smiled.
The "uncle" mentioned by Chen Jie is naturally Dai Yunong, deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau. Dai Yunong used the pseudonym "Chen Peilin" in Hong Kong.
That's why Chen Jie said so.
This conversation can only be understood by him and Lu Xiyan.
"Brother-in-law, are you really friends?" Meng Hao said in surprise. He had seen all the people Lu Xiyan knew, but at least he should have heard of the names.
But I have never heard of someone named "Chen Jie", but they send gifts from big bags and small bags to the door without any malice, so it is not appropriate to turn them out.
That's why he came forward to receive it, chatting while waiting for Lu Xiyan to come back.
"Well, you're an acquaintance." Lu Xiyan was really hard to explain. Chen Jie was known in Kunming. How should he explain how he went to Kunming and how did he meet Chen Jie?
"Brother Chen, how about the narration in our study room upstairs?"
"Okay." Chen Jie came to see Lu Xiyan having something to discuss, so of course he couldn't say it in front of an outsider like Meng Hao. Lu Xiyan proposed a separate secret talk, so he naturally couldn't ask for it.
"Brother Chen, please!"
Chen Jie followed Lu Xiyan to the study room on the second floor and closed the door.
"Brother Chen, what are you drinking?"
"Do you have wine here?" Chen Jie was very familiar and asked directly.
"Let me see." Lu Xiyan opened the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of red wine, and gestured at Chen Jie, "Is this OK?"
Chen Jie nodded.
Lu Xiyan took two clean wine glasses and opened the wine bottle. One of them got one-third of the red wine in the cup.
"Well, good wine, it's been at least ten years. Brother Lu, you will still enjoy it." Chen Jie picked up the wine glass, shook it gently, put it on his nose and sniffed it, exclaimed.
"I can't drink anything from this red wine. I buy all the wines here as decorations. I rarely come to Hong Kong once a year."
"Haha, Brother Lu is straightforward. Actually, I am the one who is drinking this red wine. If you want to drink it, you have to drink Maotai from Guizhou!" Chen Jie laughed, "This time I came in a hurry and didn't bring too much, so I bought you two boxes."
"Is that so? Brother Chen has a place to go tonight. Why not stay and stay together to stay together?" Lu Xiyan's heart moved.
"It's still Brother Lu knows me. I originally wanted to find a restaurant to eat tonight. Since Brother Lu said that, how could I refuse?"
"Okay, I still have a room here. It's so late, Brother Chen will stay for one night and leave tomorrow?" Lu Xiyan said.
“Okay.”
After the gossip, it's time to talk about the serious matters.
"Brother Lu, our two families have been very happy over the past year. My uncle asked me to come over and say thank you for him." Chen Jie said.
"Brother Chen, there is no need to say this, everyone is for the country."
"Yes, for the country." Chen Jie said, "Since Brother Lu is here in Hong Kong, I believe he has heard of the Southwest Transportation Company?"
"Well, I just heard from the people below not long ago. I seem to be quite energetic and very strong." Lu Xiyan couldn't figure out what Chen Jie was going to do.
"To be honest, I came to Hong Kong to meet Brother Lu this time for this Southwest Transportation Company." Chen Jie said solemnly.
"What, is there any problem?"
"The Southwest Transportation Company is indeed connected to the sky. Behind it is the Song family and Madam Jiang is also connected to it." Chen Jie said.
"Brother Chen means that he wants to share some of the profits for them?" Lu Xiyan understood that Chen Jie came for the smuggling business.
"Brother Lu, don't get me wrong. Uncle's intention is not to ask Brother Lu, you to share the profits to him, but to divide the share we give to them 30%." Chen Jie said.
"As long as your uncle agrees, there is no problem here. It will be the same for me to cooperate with anyone in China, and this is not bad for me." Lu Xiyan said that being able to connect with the Song family is safer for the Hanoi branch. At least you don't have to rely on the Military Control Commission in the future.
How could Dai Yunong be willing to cut off such a large piece of fat and distribute it to others? I am afraid that there will be shameful insider trading here.
As for what this transaction is, Lu Xiyan doesn't want to ask about it.
"Actually, this is a win-win result for Brother Lu." Chen Jie smiled, "The Song family's influence on Mr. Jiang is unparalleled."
"Yes, for me, there is no loss, and I can even continue to expand my business. If one cannot afford it, two companies may not be able to do so. In fact, as long as we do well, the profit can be doubled." Lu Xiyan said.
"Brother Lu, I heard that you have a personal relationship with Zhou Fuhai?"
Lu Xiyan's heart moved slightly. This is probably the reason why Chen Jie came to see him in person. In the matter just now, there was no need to send someone to tell him, just a telegram is enough.
The next thing I talk about is probably something that cannot be said in the telegram, so I need to send someone to come and have an interview with him in person.
"This starts with the New Year I came to Hong Kong last year..." Lu Xiyan carefully explained what he had met with Zhou Fuhai and his wife.
"So that's how you met." Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
"Brother Chen won't think that I will turn to Wang Ni because of my relationship with Zhou Fuhai, right?" Lu Xiyan said.
"No, Brother Lu is so serious. What Brother Lu does is a Chinese with a conscience, let alone Brother Lu is our own person." Chen Jie said, "My uncle means, can Brother Lu use this relationship to get close to Wang?"
"It is probably impossible to get close to Wang's family. Zhou Fuhai and I are just a general friend and have no relationship with Wang's family. If we make this request rashly, they will definitely doubt it." Lu Xiyan said.
"That's a pity." Chen Jie couldn't help but sigh in regret.
Lu Xiyan knew that the Military Control Commission had been planning to assassinate the Wang family in Shanghai, but so far, he has been able to get close to the Wang family once, and has lost many troops and generals.
Dai Yunong has an obsession with "stinging Wang".
As long as the Wang family dies, the Japanese conspiracy to support the Wang Ni regime will be completely bankrupt, which is what Chiang Kai-shek and Chongqing are willing to see.
The Wang family still has great appeal in the Kuomintang. Once Wang established a new central government with the support of the Japanese, the political blow to the Chongqing government will be huge.
"Brother Lu, my uncle hopes that Brother Lu can gain his trust with his current good relationship with Zhou Fuhai."
"Do you want me to break into Wang Ni?"
"It can be said that we need to understand the internal trends of Wang Ni at any time now. There may not be many people who come into contact with their senior management. Gao, and after Tao lost his way, they will definitely strictly review the people around them. In this way, it will be difficult to enter their core circle." Chen Jie said.
"I am just a doctor. I may not be able to do such a difficult job as spying on intelligence." Lu Xiyan said with a wry smile.
"Don't worry, Brother Lu will have someone to help and guide your work." Chen Jie said, "We don't need Brother Lu to obtain any top-secret information, just intelligence on their daily lives and schedules."
"That's good." Lu Xiyan nodded and reluctantly agreed.
"Brother-in-law, I asked me to ask you to go down for the New Year's Eve dinner, and I also called Mr. Chen to go with me." Meng Hao knocked on the door and said.
"Yeah, I got it."
...
"Xiyan, who is Mr. Chen? He is so generous?" After the New Year's Eve dinner, Chen Jie proposed to play mahjong. It was not until it was 1:00 in the night that there were dense firecrackers outside and the scene ended.
When I went to bed and rested, it was already two o'clock in the morning.
"The Military Control Commission used to be from the Kunming office, but now I don't know what position it is, Dai Yunong's confidant." Lu Xiyan explained.
"What, he is from the Military Control Commission?"
"Well, he will sleep in the guest room downstairs." Lu Xiyan hurriedly reminded.
"Xiyan, how could you leave a military commander at home overnight?" Meng Fanxing asked with some anger.
"What do you think he can discover this night?" Lu Xiyan said, "I did this to make him trust me more. Do you understand? Besides, am I also the Military Control Commission?"
"You are different." Meng Fanxing gave her husband a fierce look.
"Okay, go to bed, he will leave tomorrow. Do you think he is willing to stay at our house for more?" Lu Xiyan lay down and put a quilt on his wife and said.
"I just feel uncomfortable. Our family is already in chaos." Meng Fanxing also lay down.
Chen Jie was sent by Dai Yunong and personally talked to him about Zhou Fuhai's affairs, which shows that Dai Yunong has noticed his relationship with Zhou Fuhai. It is naturally not difficult to understand that he wants to make a fuss about it, but it is hard to say what level Dai Yunong wants him to do.
It would be difficult to take it back after stepping out. There was also the same intention for the task assigned by the organization. This was actually the same thing.
There is also the secret negotiations between Song Ziliang from Southwest Transportation Company and the Japanese side. How far has it been? This is what he urgently wants to know.
Whether it is Japan or Lao Chiang in Chongqing, the confidentiality measures have been taken very closely, and the news has not been revealed at all.
If he hadn't accidentally set up a casual chess like Gu Xiaobai at the Military Control Commission Hong Kong Station, they would have really deceived everyone.
Should we expose their secret negotiations?
Lu Xiyan felt a little confused. After all, it is normal for private contact to have not reached any agreement. Even if there is a hostile relationship between countries, it is impossible to never interact with each other until they die.
This is also unrealistic.
