Sheng Muyi drives a red Mercedes, which is a new model last year and one of the first batch of subscribers. It was just shipped from Germany.
There was a Pontiac car not far away. Four tall men stood outside the car, each with their hands on their waists and scanning the surroundings warily.
Lu Ming knew that these four people were Sheng Muyi's personal bodyguards. He waved his hand, and when they saw it was him, the four people nodded and smiled.
Sheng Muyi saw Lu Ming get out of the car and started walking along the river. Lu Ming hurriedly trotted to follow, and the four bodyguards followed closely behind.
However, they all kept a certain distance from Sheng Muyi, so that they could cope with various emergencies at any time and could not hear what Sheng Muyi said to others.
"Well, tell me, if you have anything to ask me for," Sheng Muyi said, reaching out to pinch his chin.
Lu Ming said angrily: "Can you change this problem of yours? You either pinch people's faces or their chins. When you were a child, you pinched them every day. It made me drool even when I was four years old."
"I can't change it, I just like pinching it, what do you think I should do?" Sheng Muyi said with a smile.
Lu Ming had no choice but to wonder why Sheng Muyi had such a quirk.
"I remember the first time I saw you, you were only a hundred days old. I met you at your hundred-day banquet. More than twenty years have passed." Sheng Muyi said while looking at the gently undulating river.
"You were only two years old at that time, so you couldn't pinch my mouth, right?" Lu Ming said suspiciously.
"I can't remember exactly. It seemed like I pinched her a little, and I was almost beaten by my godmother." Sheng Muyi couldn't help laughing.
"Oh, I feel like I'm getting old and I'm busy all day long." Lu Ming laughed at himself.
"Nonsense, you haven't even started a family yet, and you still dare to talk about being old. By the way, I bought you a new house, haven't you seen it yet?" Sheng Muyi said.
Lu Ming shook his head, but he also knew that Sheng Youde bought a villa with a garden in the French Concession for his marriage. It was the official residence of a French diplomat. After the diplomat returned to China, he sold the mansion and was sold by Sheng Youde.
Youde bought it and wanted to give it to Lu Ming.
He has also heard that the mansion is now being fully renovated. It is said that not only the decoration materials are shipped from Italy, but also the decorators and decorators are shipped over from Italy. The decoration alone will cost one hundred thousand pounds.
, plus the cost of purchasing the mansion, the total is 250,000 pounds.
Lu Ming was shocked when he heard it. Twenty-five thousand pounds, in Britain, only wealthy aristocrats could afford it. The former French diplomat was from a noble family, and he seemed to be a marquis.
Although the French Revolution revolutionized the lives of kings and nobles, there are still many descendants of nobles in France, and they still live in the upper class of France.
"Go and have a look someday. If you have any ideas for the new house, you can put forward your ideas. There is still time to make changes." Sheng Muyi said with a smile.
"Well, since we have hired a professional designer, you should listen to them and stop messing around." Lu Ming was not mentally prepared to move into the bungalow, so he had no choice but to shirk it.
The two chatted for a while, and then Mu Yi asked: "What do you want from me?"
"I made a mistake. I need you to help me balance my accounts next month." Lu Ming whispered.
"Settling the books? You can just let Zi Yuan do it, why bother looking for me?" Sheng Muyi looked at him suspiciously.
"Ziyuan can't do it. Besides, I don't want Ziyuan to know about this, so I can only ask you." Lu Ming said.
"Why did you hide this from Ziyuan?" Sheng Muyi wanted to laugh when she saw his serious yet sneaky look.
Although Lu Ming doesn't usually have a playful and smiling face, he rarely looks serious. As long as he behaves like this, it means that something is serious.
"It's not that I'm hiding it from Ziyuan, but I don't want Huang Yanning to know. In fact, it's also to protect him and prevent him from falling into it."
Lu Ming thought about this matter again and again, and felt that he still had to avoid Huang Yanning, not because he was afraid that he would betray him or get in the way, but because he was afraid that he would get into troubled waters and ruin his future.
Lu Ming was indifferent to the so-called future in Fuxing Society. Even if he left there tomorrow, it wouldn't be a big deal.
But Huang Yanning was different. He was destined to never leave the government agencies of the Republic of China for the rest of his life, and the Fuxing Society may be the most important step in his life.
"Oh, that's what you think. Yes, you know how to think about others. How big a sum of money is this?"
"About two hundred thousand yuan." Lu Ming said with a bitter smile.
"Two hundred thousand? Is it the ocean?" Sheng Muyi asked a little surprised.
"Well, it's the ocean." Lu Ming said.
"That's too much. What do you want to do? If you want to buy clothes and jewelry for yourself and Mingzhu, you can pay the bill directly without having to make false accounts, but you don't need so much money to buy clothes and jewelry."
Sheng Muyi is right, unless you want to buy the British King's crown, you won't be able to spend so much money on normal clothes and jewelry in your lifetime.
"Well, I want to buy a large amount of supplies, a lot..." Lu Ming told the whole story. Since Sheng Muyi is expected to help make false accounts, he can't deceive others.
He didn't know if Sheng Muyi could understand this, but he was certain that Sheng Muyi would never betray him. Who he trusted most in the world was not Sheng Youde or even Mingzhu, but Sheng Muyi.
"You dare to get involved in this kind of thing. If you are exposed, you will lose your head." Sheng Muyi's heart was filled with shock. She was shocked and a little surprised, but she could only say this.
"What if it's exposed? Just find someone to settle it. I just don't want my old man to know, at least not now. Even if he does know in the future, he will just scold me." Lu Ming looked like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.
"You are really spoiled. You are becoming more and more courageous. You won't join the Communist Party, right?" Sheng Muyi asked tentatively.
"No, I haven't thought about it that much. Even if I want to join, they may not necessarily want me. I just want to help them a little." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Maybe, maybe the Communist Party likes people like you." Sheng Muyi smiled.
"No, my social class is the target of revolution in their eyes, and I cannot join their camp." Lu Ming said frankly.
"In that case, why are you still helping them? Isn't it a waste of time?" Sheng Muyi further probed.
"I think they are the cleanest political party and organization, and the only organization that does not have any connections with foreign countries. They neither take money from the United Kingdom or the United States, nor money from the Japanese. In the future, when a full-scale war breaks out between China and Japan, they will be the most determined and brave
of the anti-Japanese armed forces." Lu Ming said seriously.
"What you say makes sense. Normally, they should be able to get help from the Soviet Union, but the Soviets would rather give money to the Republic of China government than to their fraternal political parties. This is also a very strange thing." Sheng Muyi said.
"Is it any wonder that wealth is found in the mountains, but no one cares about poverty in the busy city? In the eyes of the Soviets, the Chinese Communist Party is too weak to be successful, so of course they are unwilling to invest. They invested in the Republic of China government
, in exchange for the Republic of China government's restraint on the Japanese." Lu Ming said angrily.
Lu Ming felt from the bottom of his heart that the Soviets were not good people. Although he loved Russian literature, he did not have a good impression of the Russian royal family or even the Soviet government.
Sheng Muyi has never joined the Communist Party. It's not that she doesn't want to join, but the superiors simply don't approve it. However, she is not discouraged and still regularly provides various information to Guo Songtao of Huiwen Bookstore.
Guo Songtao strictly limited the number of meetings between them, and they could not meet once a month. This showed that the situation in Shanghai was not optimistic and the underground party was in a very difficult situation.
She had no idea how useful the information sent by Sheng Muyi was. She was just doing her part.
Sheng Muyi was very shocked when she heard what Lu Ming said, but what she was thinking in her heart was: Such a big thing happened and Lao Guo didn't say anything. Could it be that he still couldn't trust her?
Sheng Muyi couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved, muttering in her heart that she must "complain" to Lao Guo if she had the chance.
"Muyi, what are you thinking about? Is it too difficult for you?" Lu Ming asked anxiously.
"No, I just want to do the accounting. It's okay. I'll help you with this. But you should stay less involved in this kind of thing in the future. It's really too dangerous."
Although Sheng Muyi was happy that Lu Ming was helping the Communist Party, she didn't want him to take risks.
In fact, the series of events that resulted from this adventurous operation did bring a lot of trouble to Lu Ming. Even Sheng Muyi was involved. This is a story for later.
