589 five hundred eighty seven, internal conspiracy
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him in shock and confusion, but was speechless.
From an outside perspective, things in the world today always develop in directions that you least expect or even least expect, and always put you in the most distressing and helpless situation. This is the sigh of life.
Two years ago, Zuo Shaoqing tried his best to promote the cooperation between Feng Dun and Yu Zhidao. At that time, all three of them thought that this shipping business had great prospects. Looking at it today, this is true.
However, Yu Zhidao wanted to return to the United States to protect his wife. But Feng Dun refused to take on this promising business.
She really couldn't understand why Feng Dun refused to take this business.
Yu Zhidao seemed to see what Zuo Shaoqing was thinking. He sat down in front of her and said very seriously: "Young Master Zuo, from the beginning of 1955 to now, there are only two years. You know I have transported them
How many supplies? Almost hundreds of thousands of tons! There are supplies that they are in short supply, and there are also sophisticated processing equipment, and many things you can’t think of. The place where I stop the most is Shantou. Every time after unloading, the local
The official would come to the ship to see me, hold my hand and say many words of thanks. I don’t know what kind of official he was, but he was definitely not an ordinary official. Before he left, he would give me a box of wine. I could feel it.
Yes, this box of wine represents their very deep gratitude. Mr. Zuo, if it weren’t because my wife was seriously ill, I would have continued this business. Tell me, why is Feng Dun unwilling to take over this business!”
Zuo Shaoqing was speechless. Her sister You Shaoqing looked at them, also stunned and speechless.
That night, when Zuo Shaoqing returned to Chaohai Building, he went directly to Feng Dun's room on the top floor and asked him the same question.
She said: "Yu Zhidao's business is obviously beneficial to domestic economic construction and has made such great achievements. Why don't you take over it?"
Feng Dun's expression surprised her. He looked at her with such a complicated and indescribable look, and didn't speak for a long time. She felt that he had something in his heart, but couldn't say it. Or, he didn't want to say it. Or,
She couldn't say it. She could see how heavy the depression was behind his painful expression.
She whispered: "Mr. Feng, can you tell me? I care about this matter because I also promoted it at the time, and I watched how it succeeded. Even if you only say a few words
, as long as you can make me understand.”
Feng Dun put his arms on his knees, clasped his hands together tightly, lowered his head, and sat motionless opposite Zuo Shaoqing. It could be seen that he was struggling painfully in his heart.
After a long while, he slowly raised his head and said in a very soft voice: "Young Master Zuo, it's been a while. I might have been plotted by someone." He was silent for a long time, and then added: "By one of my own people.
"
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him even more surprised. She had a feeling that she had not been in contact with the organization for a long time, and she knew very little about the situation in the country. Her understanding of the organization may have come from Du Ziyuan's treatment of her
Trust. However, the trust between her and Du Ziyuan was gained with their lives on the battlefield!
She also understands that such a trust has been tested by many difficulties over many years and is extremely rare.
She vaguely realized that people in the country, specifically people in the intelligence system, such as people in Lao Feng's system, also had such trust? Although they are all members of the Communist Party of China and have firm revolutionary beliefs. But
, first of all, they are also concrete people! All the complexity, all the irrationality, and even distrust in the world may also exist in them.
She asked in a low voice: "Which aspect?" To her, this was the most important point.
Feng Dun gritted his teeth, stared at her, and whispered: "It's economic, or rather, financial."
Zuo Shaoqing breathed a sigh of relief at this statement, as long as it was not political. She felt that Feng Dun was in Hong Kong, using a trading company as a cover to engage in complex and unknown intelligence work. If he wanted to be better at financial matters,
There are no problems, it's almost impossible.
However, Feng Dun said to her: "Young Master Zuo, only I know whether I have any financial problems. I tell you, I have a clear conscience!"
Zuo Shaoqing looked at his firm eyes and couldn't help but nod. She could tell whether a person was lying.
Feng Dun continued: "In my work, the source and destination of some funds cannot be told. This is determined by my mission. The use of these funds is itself a secret. I handle
Business, including Yu Zhidao’s business, is difficult to fully explain. I can only say that I have a clear conscience. When Yu Zhidao proposed that I take over his shares, I was indeed prepared to take over. I know Yu Zhidao’s business, and I have no regrets about it.
Domestic economic construction has great benefits. However, since Huang Zuozhu's death two years ago, a new leader has come to the Hong Kong Working Committee. There has always been some estrangement between us. This time, when I proposed to take over Yu Zhidao's shares
, but the leader smiled and said to me: 'Old Feng, you must be very enthusiastic about this matter.' Mr. Zuo, I can hear the meaning of this sentence."
Zuo Shaoqing was silent. At this point, it was actually very clear. This explained why Feng Dun was unwilling to take over Yu Zhidao's shares. She felt very sad, but there was nothing she could do. Trust is always intelligence.
The rarest thing in the system.
The most embarrassing thing about this matter was that she couldn't give a reasonable explanation to Yu Zhidao. She couldn't speak out either.
A few days later, when Long Jinyun came to Hong Kong again, she wrote another brief report on Feng Dun and Yu Zhidao's ship shares and gave it to Long Jinyun to take back. But she soon received a request from Du Ziyuan.
Long distance call from Beijing.
Du Ziyuan only said one thing on the phone: "Don't get involved in the matters mentioned in your letter."
Zuo Shaoqing was very distressed. Her previous two reports had no news at all. This report immediately had news, but warned her not to get involved! The most distressing thing in life is when you find out that the career you are pursuing exists.
You really want to remedy any small flaw or shortcoming. However, the instruction you receive is, don’t get involved! You watch helplessly as that little flaw or shortcoming turns into a big problem.
There are loopholes. But you have nothing to do.
Now, the distress in her heart cannot be told to Feng Dun, nor to her sister, nor to Zhidao, she can only hide it in her heart. Another thing, "Water Hyacinth" is still hiding in the U.S. Consulate General, taking
He had no choice. She could only pass the time by reading the newspaper every day.
But the news in the newspapers is almost all about the refugees who "fleeed Hong Kong". The refugees are hiding in the mountains and forests without any shelter. They are really exposed to the sun and rain, and have nowhere to hide. They only rely on the input of Hong Kong people every day They make a living by eating food in the mountains and forests. The Hong Kong government has repeatedly stated that it will repatriate all refugees to the mainland.
At noon that day, Sister Zuo Shaoqing had just finished lunch and was resting in her room, when Yu Zhidao came.
As soon as he entered the door, he looked at Zuo Shaoqing seriously for a full minute. He finally sighed and said: "Young Master Zuo, I can see that you and Feng Dun have not reached an agreement. He still refuses to accept the deal. My business, isn’t it?”
Zuo Shaoqing felt very complicated. She couldn't explain Feng Dun's worries to him, so she had to shake her head at him.
Yu Zhidao sat at the table and said softly: "Young Master Zuo, I really can't bear to give these two boats to others!"
Zuo Shaoqing said softly: "I know. This matter is indeed very helpless."
Yu Zhidao waved his hand and said, "Looking at it now, there is nothing we can do about this matter. I am in the process of contacting you about selling these two ships, and there will be a result soon. But there is one more thing, I hope it can be done There needs to be a suitable person to take over. Otherwise, this matter will not be able to continue."
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him carefully, "What is it?"
Yu Zhidao nodded, "It's the smuggling business between Brother Yan and I. This business is very big and very profitable. I don't think Feng Dun will take over this business. Without a suitable person to be a middleman, this The business will no longer be able to continue. Do you understand what this means?"
Zuo Shaoqing thought for a while and understood the problem. This suitable intermediary should have a deep relationship with the mainland, and also have a deep relationship with Brother Yan. Feng Dun is not a matter of willingness, but It's not suitable. At the moment, there really isn't such a suitable person to take over Brother Yan's smuggling business.
There was a little silence in the room. Sisters Yu Zhidao and Zuo Shaoqing did not speak.
Finally, Yu Zhidao said: "Are you okay now? If you are okay, please accompany me to see Brother Yan. Just think of it as a way to relax. You have been in Hong Kong for a few days, and you should also go see Brother Yan. By the way, and Yan Let’s discuss this matter.”
Because Feng Dun refused to take over Yu Zhidao's shipping business, and because he could not give a reasonable explanation to Yu Zhidao, Zuo Shaoqing felt very sorry. At this time, he was even more unwilling to displease him. So he said: "That's fine. , I have been here these days, and I really should meet Brother Yan, otherwise, Brother Yan will talk about me again. Sister, you should also go and get to know Brother Yan."
You Shaoqing was feeling bored sitting in his room all day and wanted to go out for a walk. He immediately stood up and said, "Okay, I'm also thinking of going out for a walk. Let's go."
In this way, the three people went out. They got into Yu Zhidao's car outside the Chaohai Building.
Yang Zhi was sitting in the car. When he saw You Shaoqing coming out, he hurriedly got out of the car and said, "You must be you. Did I see you that night two years ago? I helped you launch the lifeboat."
You Shaoqing was also very happy. He held his hand and said, "Adjutant Yang, I really want to thank you that day. You were hiding the light at the time, so I really didn't recognize you. Otherwise, I would have seen you a long time ago." Sister."
