Chapter 71 71. Afraid of death is not a hero

The tide of the Haihe River is high, and this time it is a rare astronomical tide. The seawater rolling up along the river collided with the floodwater rushing down from the upper reaches, and it was about to submerge the embankments on both sides.Ding Shaomei was sitting cross-legged on the bow of the boat, the cool drizzle fell on his hot face, the heat and cold swayed, and there was a little stinging pain.He doesn't remember how he came to the pier, how he got on Erbao's boat, all he can feel now is the sound of the machine next to his ears, and the rain on his face. I actually lost, not only to Yunong, but to everyone, how could it be?Which link went wrong?He arranged everything too carefully, and he would never make a mistake, but the result of the election was completely beyond his expectation, and it was Yunong who was elected.It shouldn't be like this!

The national feud has not been reported, the family feud has not been reported, and now he has been deprived of his "weapon" for revenge by his beloved.Pity my ingenuity, my suave style, I deal with the enemy's battles like walking in a garden, I play with those old foxes in the spy world in the palm of my hand, I control nearly half of the gold in the North China market, I manipulate The movement towards Occupy Currency was brought to a head by a flood.What do you want from me?Who else can contribute more to this war than I?However, in just one night, my world collapsed, and the intelligence market was lost from my hands. It was a sharp weapon for me to fight against the Japanese armed forces with a little slowness; I also lost the gold market. No matter how much I defend myself, on Monday morning, a large group of creditors will find that I have written an irredeemable check. Whether it is the North China Commander, the major British trading houses, or Zuo Yinglong, they will not be kind. Let go.In this city, he will have no place to stand.

A few months ago, he was full of intelligence and an angry young man who hated his father. Today, he is panic-stricken, useless to people and things.Thinking of this, two lines of tears flowed down, even if the tears were like this surging river, they could not wash away the humiliation he suffered.At this moment, he really wants to destroy something, break something, only in this way can he release some of the depression in his chest. Yu Changchun stepped onto the bow, leaned against the cabin door, and smoked leisurely. "God helps me too." He roared towards the dark and empty water, the sound spread far away and dissipated on the river. "Once the flood broke out, Japan's broken steamboats would not dare to come out, and now we can gallop as we please."

Ding Shaomei wiped away the tears from her face, but did not speak.Yu Changchun went on to say: "I arranged this operation seamlessly, without any leaks. I don't think the Japanese devils will do anything to me. However, thanks to the two sums of money you gave, now, you have money, and I have courage. Let us Together, the two of you will be invincible." Next, he told Ding Shaomei the detailed plan of blowing up the ship: everything was arranged at the pier, Erbao had already sent people to take out the black gold hidden in the anti-smuggling warehouse of the customs, and they would go to an abandoned pier Meet up with that person.Lao Zhao refused to come forward about boarding the ship, but he had already negotiated with the bosun, and the other party took them directly on the ship and asked him to put the things in the dark cabin with his own hands. The other party would not interfere in the whole process, but the safety of the cargo Also no longer responsible. "There is no need for him to take any responsibility for this. The ship will set sail this afternoon, and it will explode in the evening. The Japanese will never get the treasures they looted."

"You can tell me what I can do." Ding Shaomei's emotions finally stabilized. He knew that what he needed most at this time was action, even if he did some crazy things, he might avoid his own madness. "No, I brought you here. I originally wanted you to experience and understand that resistance against Japan is not about treating guests to dinner. Resistance against Japan means fighting the enemy with real swords and guns. You don't have to do anything, just stay in the dark and watch out for us. The second and I Get on the boat." Ding Shaomei stepped forward and grabbed Yu Changchun's hand firmly, and said, "Please promise me, let me go on board too."

Yu Changchun smiled: "It seems that you are really improving. I was afraid that you would not grow up. Well, anyway, there are two altars of Hesuojin, and a suitcase containing the timer and TNT. Three people take it It's easier than two people." Er Bao called them over from the stern.Ding Shaomei shook hands with Er Bao, Er Bao said: "It's not convenient for me to hold the tiller, you two can do it yourself, eat something." Open the cattail bag, it is sauced donkey meat, sauced duck, take-out pot cakes and spicy pickles.Er Bao said, "Young Master Ding, you can eat as much as you want, I've even prepared food for the return journey, and there's also celebration wine."

"Does your master know you're coming?" Ding Shaomei regained her normal sense and put all her troubles aside for the time being. Er Bao said happily: "No need, I'm the little boss. Now the master entrusts me to take charge of all the business from Sanchahekou to Haixia. I also do my best to earn more money for the master. But Having said that, I also get a share, and my share in the first month alone is more than 8,000 yuan. The master said that if I continue to work like this, next year I will buy a house and marry a wife." "Congratulations, it turns out that the friends I made are all rich men." Yu Changchun was very interested, and opened the bottle to drink with Ding Shaomei.

Near midnight, Wu Niu found that she had bruises on her body. There were bruises on her armpits and arms, one by one, as if she had been beaten. Looking at her legs, the inner thighs were also the same. look. "What should I do?" Fan Xiaoqing stretched out her finger and pressed it carefully. "Does it hurt? Does it itch?" "It doesn't hurt or itch, it's just numb and unconscious." Wu Niu said.Fan Xiaoqing called Mrs. Song up, but she couldn't see the reason, she just asked: "What's wrong?" "I'm just thirsty, I always want to drink water." .

Don't get angry inside?But there is no fever, and the cold sweat on the forehead is constant; if it is not diarrhea and dehydration?But the diarrhea stopped in the morning.The two discussed it for a long time, but they couldn't come up with an idea.Fan Xiaoqing said: "Just send it to the hospital." "No." Wu Niu disagreed, "Master Ding said that if a flood enters the city, it would be difficult for everyone to separate." "Don't be afraid," Fan Xiaoqing said, "I will live with you in the hospital." Wu Niu just refused to go, "Master Ding came home to see that I'm not here, he must be unhappy." Seeing that Fan Xiaoqing seemed to be angry, she quickly said, "Miss Xiaoqing, listen to me, I don't feel anything wrong with me." What, besides thirst, I am hungry, I want to eat after eating."

"What do you want to eat?" Mrs. Song asked.Wu Niu said shyly, "It would be great if I had a big bowl of noodles with fried sauce. Lots of diced fat meat and a few cloves of garlic. I'm not used to the delicate things you eat every day." In the end, Wu Niu couldn't eat this bowl of fried noodles, because Yu Nong brought back a shockingly bad news.After the meeting, she went to the Marlinsky Café, which would become her territory in the future.Bestushev greeted her respectfully at the door, where, although it was nearly midnight, there were many people gathered, presumably waiting for news from the committee.Seeing Yunong enter the door, all the spies stood up and applauded enthusiastically and without loss of proportion.Yunong smiled at everyone, and went to the high-status seat, which had become her exclusive seat.

A White Russian general with white beard and hair came to Yunong on behalf of the crowd and delivered a speech full of praise and encouragement to her.In this way, she would have to make a speech, or she would be rude.She said: "My fellow colleagues, I am fortunate to be engaged in this challenging industry. I have never regretted it. Instead, I feel extremely honored. This is an industry with a long history, and it is also a great industry. The course of history is often changed because of us. Change...." The hall was silent, and everyone was quickly analyzing every word they heard in order to find the most beneficial content for themselves.She continued: "Now, the Japanese have occupied North China, which has brought some inconvenience to all of us; but the whole world is in turmoil, which is an unprecedented opportunity. We should seize this opportunity to make my business bigger and stronger. , let this city become a worldwide intelligence distribution center." The crowd was greatly encouraged and applauded again. "Everyone recommended me to be the manager of the information market this time. I will definitely do my best to open up sales channels in Europe and America, so that every piece of information we have can earn the maximum profit." At the end of the speech, most people dispersed contentedly.A young Chinese came to Yunong and said in a low voice: "Congratulations on your election as the chairman. I will send you a free information as a token of respect." What information, she asked. "The North China Command is searching for an employee of a shipping company who is engaged in smuggling. Unfortunately, he may have connections with your Mr. Ding." That was Old Zhao from the Sanbei Shipping Company. If he was arrested, he would most likely betray Yu Changchun and the others.Could it be that Ding Shaomei also went to blow up the boat? "Mr. Ding has already bought a boat to go." The man looked apologetic. "However, if you go after them and stop them now, maybe there is still time. The man's whereabouts have just been discovered. Although the Japanese are anxious, even if you kidnap him immediately, you still have a little time." Back home, Fan Xiaoqing confirmed that Ding Shaomei participated in the bombing of the ship.Yu Nong really felt the pain of being burned at the moment. This Young Master Ding must have suffered a blow in the committee and wanted to blow up the ship himself to vent his anger.How did he know that the only way for him to survive now is to escape from the local area. As soon as the bank opens on Monday, all his tricks will be revealed, and the Japanese must kill them soon. She said to Fan Xiaoqing: "Your car is fast, let me use it. I want to go to Tanggu before they do." Fan Xiaoqing said: "I heard that Erbao drove the robot boat. No, besides, my car has too much horsepower, and you are not familiar with it, so it is prone to accidents, so let me accompany you." "I'm going too." Wu Niu said. The two said in unison: "You are recuperating at home." Wu Niu said: "This trip is to save people from the Japanese soldiers, maybe they will be beaten and killed. Without me, you can't do anything." "Noodles are here!" Mrs. Song came in with a tray. Inside was a large bowl of steaming noodles, cucumbers and carrots as finely chopped as hair, and a small bowl of fried pork belly with yellow sauce was very fragrant. The three of them looked at each other, jumped up and went back to their rooms to prepare their weapons, leaving Mrs. Song aside, holding the noodles with fried sauce in a daze.
