Du Ziyuan stood alone in the private room and thought for a while. Now he had no other choice but to go to Chaohai Hotel as soon as possible. When he and Chu Bolin walked out of the private room, he said to him: "Bring people to participate in tonight's operation.
You should be alert during the operation and contact me at any time."
Chu Bolin nodded, "Yes, I understand."
It was also the evening of that day. When Du Ziyuan was discussing the current situation with Huang Zuozhu in the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency, Zuo Shaoqing was standing only a hundred meters away from the Hong Kong branch, looking at the person sitting on the street with confusion.
People under the tea tent.
She had just left the newsstand. The canvas bag on her shoulders was heavy and filled with newspapers.
At this time, she was holding an umbrella and standing in the rain, looking at Yu Zhidao sitting under the awning drinking tea with great shock. In her eyes, Yu Zhidao was the most treacherous and cunning person in the world, but he appeared
Here, she was really surprised.
At this time, Yu Zhidao, who had been staring at her, slowly opened the tea cup in his hand and stood up. He stared at Zuo Shaoqing somewhat gloomily, pointed to the distance, and then walked forward.
This gesture can almost be said to be a tacit understanding between Zuo Shaoqing and Yu Zhidao. Zuo Shaoqing went to the Ministry of National Defense in Nanjing twice to find Yu Zhidao and made this gesture. Now it is Yu Zhidao who is making this gesture to her.
.
Yang Zhi did not follow Yu Zhidao forward. He stood there with a gentle smile on his face, looking at Zuo Shaoqing who was slowly walking over. When she came to him, he whispered: "Young Group
Chief, let me carry your satchel."
Zuo Shaoqing was still staring at Yu Zhidao in front of him, and quietly handed the satchel to Yang Zhi.[
Yang Zhi said in amazement: "Young team leader, why did you buy so many newspapers?"
Zuo Shaoqing didn't want to answer his question. She just stared at Yu Zhidao walking in front, with many questions swirling in her heart. What she couldn't figure out for the moment was why he appeared here.
Yu Zhidao didn't look back, he walked ahead calmly, leading Zuo Shaoqing to turn into a small street, and finally walked into an inconspicuous hotel.
Zuo Shaoqing followed Yu Zhidao, followed him into the hotel, and followed him up the stairs. She judged in her heart that Yu Zhidao might have booked a room here. She thought so because she saw Yu Zhidao go up to the third floor.
, was taking out the key from his pocket. He opened a door and asked Zuo Shaoqing to go in first.
Another reason for Zuo Shaoqing's guess was that she didn't quite believe that Yu Zhidao would live here. She guessed that this might be the place where Yu Zhidao wanted to meet someone.
Sure enough, she walked into the room and looked around. The whole room was clean and tidy, and there was no mess at all. There were no personal belongings on the table, bed, or chairs, and there were no bags or other luggage. So, he was going to be here with everyone.
Who was he meeting? The person he wanted to meet was definitely not him, because she and Yu Zhidao met completely by chance.
She remained calm, sat down at the table according to Yu Zhidao's gesture, and then looked at him quietly.
Yu Zhidao also sat down at the table. He glanced attentively at the big satchel that Yang Zhi put on the chair. He turned back and said, "Young team leader, maybe it's inappropriate for me to call you that now, right?"
Zuo Shaoqing said softly: "Sir Yu, please call me Zuo Shao. I use the name Zuo Shaoqing now."
The "Zuo Shao" Zuo Shaoqing mentioned is of course the pseudonym she uses now, not the "Zuo Shao" she used in Nanjing. Her name has been emphasized many times below.
Yu Zhidao laughed, "Young Master Zuo, I am no longer Chief Yu. Damn..." He gritted his teeth involuntarily, "I have retired now! In that dirty place in Taipei, I should
Get out of there early!”
Zuo Shaoqing saw the angry glare in his eyes and clenched teeth, and he guessed in his heart that he was most likely defeated in Taiwan's officialdom and had to retire.
She said softly: "So, what should I call you?"
Yu Zhidao blinked and looked at her, seemingly not remembering for a moment what Zuo Shaoqing should call him.
At this time, Yang Zhi whispered from the side: "Young team leader, I now call him boss, you can also call him boss Yu." [
Zuo Shaoqing chuckled, "Okay, Boss Yu, it seems that you have come to Hong Kong to do business."
Yu Zhidao looked at Zuo Shaoqing with a mysterious look, and said with a faint smile: "Young Master Zuo, let me ask you first. I was very confused when I first saw you. You
How could it appear in Hong Kong?"
Zuo Shaoqing smiled and said lightly: "Boss Yu, I was ordered to work here."
Yu Zhidao narrowed his eyes and looked at her, "Under orders? Whose orders?"
Zuo Shaoqing nodded to him, "It's an order from the Ministry of National Defense, Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense. I was ordered to study the economic and political situation of the mainland here. This is my current job."
Yu Zhidao looked at her in surprise. He suddenly laughed loudly, "You? Let you work here? Come and study the situation on the mainland? Whose fucking idea was this? Are you blind? Ah,
This is so interesting! Mr. Zuo, don’t you think this is so interesting?”
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him seriously, "Boss Yu, please don't laugh at me. I have just settled down and don't want to be suspected anymore. So please don't say similar things to me again."
Yu Zhidao glanced at the canvas bag stuffed with newspapers placed on the chair again, "You went to that newsstand just to buy these newspapers?"
Zuo Shaoqing patted the canvas bag and said, "Yes, I mainly conduct research through these newspapers."
"Young Master Zuo, maybe it's more than that?" Yu Zhidao stared at her sharply, "When I saw you, I noticed that you have been observing your surroundings. What are you observing?"
When Zuo Shaoqing heard this, she couldn't help but wonder if she could get some information from Yu Zhidao that she didn't know. After a moment of hesitation, she decided to tell the truth, "Boss Yu, when you saw me, I really
I was just observing, because I feel like there seems to be some abnormality nearby. But I don’t understand what’s wrong.”
Yu Zhidao stared at her with a somewhat gloomy look, "Young Master Zuo, your senses are very keen, and you may have really felt it. Let me tell you, I didn't come to Hong Kong alone, I also have some ears and eyes.
I did hear that something happened on the mainland."
"What happened?" Although Zuo Shaoqing remained calm, his heart immediately became concerned.
"I don't know exactly what happened. But it must be a big deal. Not only have the people over there in Taiwan been more vigilant and alert, but people in Taiwan are also very nervous. Mr. Zuo, I didn't hide it from you. I really don't know.
Something happened. They seem to be fighting for something or someone. As for me, I don’t want to worry about it. I don’t care if they have any trouble here, as long as it doesn’t affect my business.”
When Yu Zhidao said this, he squinted his eyes and observed her carefully, "Young Master Zuo, are you very concerned about this matter?"
Zuo Shaoqing shook his head, "No."
Yu Zhidao stared at her, "But you are observing next to the Xinhua branch of the Communist Party of China."
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him quietly, "Boss Yu, I just... did it out of professional habit."
Yu Zhidao looked at her silently, and he seemed to be hesitating about something. He finally said: "Young Master Zuo, I have something to ask you. If there is need, will you help me? Do something?"
Zuo Shaoqing laughed and said, "Boss Yu, why have you forgotten? I said something to you when we were in Nanchang. I said, please let me know if you have any use for me in the future. You don't
Will you forget?"
Yu Zhidao nodded to her, "Young Master Zuo, I just remembered this sentence, so I have to ask. After all, many years have passed, and you and I have changed a lot, and we are now in such a situation.
"
Zuo Shaoqing said to him seriously: "Boss Yu, what I said at that time will always count, as long as it is within my ability." She thought for a moment and then said: "I know that Boss Yu is the wisest person, and some
I won’t be asked to do anything.”
Yu Zhidao also laughed, and even burst into laughter, "Okay, okay, Mr. Zuo, you said it well, you said it very well! I'm not flattering you, you are really the smartest person I have ever seen. I like it
."
Zuo Shaoqing laughed, "In addition, if Boss Yu hears about any special situation, for example, about something or someone, it is worth fighting for between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. If there is any news in this regard, I also hope that Boss Yu can
Tell me. I believe Boss Yu will understand what I mean."
Yu Zhidao also laughed and pointed at her with his finger, "Master Zuo, I understand very well. You finally told the truth. Okay, I agree to this request. This means that we can help each other, right?"
Zuo Shaoqing nodded, "Yes, we are helping each other. Then, when it comes to business, you want me to help you. Boss Yu, what do you want to do now?"
Yu Zhidao tapped her again with his finger, "Young Master Zuo, please rest assured that I will not ask you to do anything excessive."
At this time, he glanced at his watch and then turned to look outside, as if he was thinking about something serious.
Zuo Shaoqing said softly: "Boss Yu, you are looking at your watch. Should I leave?"
Yu Zhidao waved his hand to her, "That's not what I meant. You are a smart person and can see everything. As for me, I may need your help. So, I won't hide some things from you. Maybe, I won't hide it from you.
But you. Tonight, I want to meet someone, right here. I hope you are here, maybe you can help me."
Zuo Shaoqing became confused, "Boss Yu, what kind of person is this?"
Yu Zhidao said: "I hope that he will be my business partner in the future. He is the general manager of Hongya Trading Company in Hong Kong, and his name is Feng Dun." When he said this, he nodded to her meaningfully, "Left
Sir, he is not just a businessman. The information I got is that he has a background in politics."
