"Transfer? How can that guy named Zheng be so kind?" Kong Xiangxi couldn't help but sneer after hearing this, "What's the origin of that kid named Li?"
"The public identity is that of Du Yuesheng's entourage. In fact, he should be Zhou Fohai's secret envoy. However, for some reason, he was exposed not long after the meeting with Dai Li, and the whole military system was rumored. According to the reply from Hong Kong, they
The two of them probably first traveled from Shanghai to Hong Kong on the pretext of a wedding trip, and then risked being shot down by flying over the hump line with Du Yuesheng. After spending a day in Kunming, they arrived at the mountain city at noon today."
Li Qiang would have been shocked if he had been there, but in just a few hours, his details had been thoroughly checked by Lin Shiliang.
And even the previous actions were accurate. It can be said that the Kong family's intelligence collection capabilities are no less than those of specialized intelligence agencies such as Juntong and Zhongtong.
"Hump line? So this transportation line, which was originally only theoretical, has been confirmed?" Kong Xiangxi is indeed known as the most savvy red-top businessman in the Republic of China. He keenly sensed business opportunities with just a word from his subordinates.
I became energetic all of a sudden.
Lin Shiliang was naturally not a vegetarian when he became the housekeeper of the Kong Mansion. He immediately heard the implication of Kong Xiangxi's words, so he quickly lowered his voice and reported: "Back to the master, according to the news sent by our people, the entire line
Although it is very dangerous, it is not completely impossible, and if the land route really comes to an end, even if it is dangerous, I am afraid I will have to make a desperate move."
"Well, that's right!" Kong Xiangxi muttered, "What type of plane are Du Yuesheng and the others flying this time?"
"DS3 passenger plane made in the United States."
"Besides us, how many companies in Kunming are qualified to modify and repair aircraft?"
"Both families."
Before he finished speaking, Kong Xiangxi slowly stretched out a finger and said, "I don't care what method you use for one week. After one week, only our Yangzi family will be left in Kunming! Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Also, book a nice banquet at Liu Chunma. I'll treat you at noon tomorrow."
"I know, I just don't know what the master is going to invite to the banquet..."
"Of course it's the couple surnamed Li! They have helped us so much, how can 50,000 yuan be enough? Wouldn't it make people laugh if word spread about such a petty attitude?"
"What the master said is that I didn't think carefully. I will send the invitation early tomorrow morning."
Only then did Kong Xiangxi nod with satisfaction, "Is there any news over there at Du Yuesheng?"
"I heard that I went to Fan Shaozeng's house in the afternoon, but he never came out. It seems that he stayed there for the night."
"Hmph! The two of them have similar odors. They can pee in the same pot." Kong Xiangxi said angrily, "Tell someone to keep an eye on the accounts of the Bank of Communications and the flow of funds. If you find any abnormalities, report them to me immediately."
"Yes, sir!"
…
At the same time, in the room of Shulu Guest House, even though the night was already deep, Li Qiang and Haitang did not rest, but carefully reviewed everything that had happened before.
"It's not right, it's still wrong. I feel like we've missed something. What is it?" Li Qiang kept rubbing his forehead with one hand and said in a troubled manner.
Haitang was tinkering with something on the side and said: "I also think everything is too coincidental. Do you think it is possible that Mr. Zheng deliberately arranged all this?"
"It's not possible. My intuition tells me that he can arrange all this. After all, there are so many coincidences, so it must not be a coincidence."
"But what is his purpose for doing this? He doesn't want to be a traitor, does he?"
"How is that possible? If he really becomes a traitor, then Boss Dai will be scolded to death by the chairman of the committee?"
"Then...could it be Boss Dai's instruction?" Haitang said after thinking for a while.
"I don't rule out this possibility. If this is the case, things would be simple. I'm afraid...forget it, let's talk about this first. Is the radio station ready?"
"This isn't cooking, how can it be so fast?" Haitang said, but her hands were never idle for a moment.
After doing this for nearly half an hour, Haitang finally shouted with excitement, "It's done!"
"Is it really done?" To be honest, Li Qiang didn't have much hope from the beginning. After all, Haitang only helped Gu Xiaomeng when she was in the Northeast, so he didn't know whether she could save a radio station by herself.
, Li Qiang was really unsure. He didn’t expect that she would actually succeed! He couldn’t help but confirm in disbelief.
"Of course!" Haitang replied with a proud look on her face, as if even she herself was very satisfied with the result.
Soon, a message containing a mysterious message was successfully sent through this simple radio station...
There was no word for the whole night, but early the next morning, Lin Shiliang paid a visit and sent an invitation from the Kong family.
"Ah... Butler Lin, your master is too polite, isn't he?" At this point, Li Qiang lowered his voice, "I have already accepted the 50,000 yuan thank you gift, why do you still want to invite me to the banquet?"
ah?"
"My master said that these are not enough to express our gratitude. You two have helped us so much, so we must thank you in person."
"Well, since Mr. Kong is so kind, I would rather be respectful than obey."
"At that time, I will be waiting for you two at Liuchunmen!" After saying that, Lin Shiliang said goodbye and left.
As soon as Lin Shiliang left, Haitang couldn't help but said: "Good guy, this is a gift of money and a banquet. What on earth does that person named Kong want to do?"
"Who knows?" Li Qiang shrugged, "It's really not that easy to guess what a big shot of that level does!"
"Then let's stop guessing. We'll see you again when the time comes."
"Well, that's all it can do."
At noon, Li Qiang and Haitang arrived at Liu Chunyi Restaurant as promised.
To be honest, Li Qiang has been traveling all over the world in recent years and has seen quite a few restaurants, but this is the first time that he has seen a restaurant of this scale.
Although there are only three floors, it can accurately distinguish the diners from the moment they enter.
If you just want to have a casual meal, you can choose to dine at the dining table on the first floor. The food will be lively, economical, delicious and not expensive.
There are three halls on the second floor, which are specially designed to hold large-scale banquets. Whether it is a wedding or funeral, a reception dinner, or the end of a party, it is an excellent choice.
As for the third floor, there are private rooms of different sizes and styles. While providing a quiet dining environment, it also has good sound insulation effect, which greatly improves the privacy of the private rooms. This may be why Kong Xiangxi chose to
One of the reasons why hosting a banquet here is important!
As soon as the two of them reached the third floor, Lin Shiliang, who had been waiting at the stairs for a long time, immediately came up to them and greeted them: "Mr. Li, Mrs. Li, are you here? Our master has been waiting here for a long time. Please come with us."
Let me do it!"
After saying that, he led the two of them to the door of the private room and knocked gently, "Sir, Mr. Li and his wife are here."
"Please come in!"
"You two, please!"
Since entering the house, the two parties have had a tacit understanding and secretly looked at each other.
I saw Kong Xiangxi sitting on the main seat, although he had the dazzling aura of the "richest man", but he was wearing a simple gown that was extremely inconsistent with it. Although his eyes hidden behind the glasses were not big, they were
The flashes of brilliance from time to time vividly display the wealth and savvy of a red-topped businessman, just right.
In Kong Xiangxi's view, Li Qiang's first impression of him was just two words: ordinary.
Of course, he also knew that this was just an appearance, otherwise Zhou Fohai would not have trusted him with such an important task. Because of this, it just showed that the young man in front of him must be very good at hiding his clumsiness.
Thinking of this, Kong Xiangxi picked up his wine glass and spoke first, breaking the silence on his own initiative, "What happened last night was averted thanks to the generous actions of the two of you. But for reasons and reasons, my daughter should have had this glass of wine."
Respect, but after the incident last night, I sent her to the ancestral hall to reflect, so please allow me to toast you two as a father on behalf of my little daughter."
After saying that, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
"Mr. Kong, you are too polite. It's just a small effort. You should not be treated like this."
"Deserve it! Why not? This matter may be just a trivial matter for you two, but for our Kong family, it is a major event that is likely to have a huge negative impact, so
Mr. Li, you don’t have to be so humble. Come, come, eat food, eat food."
With that said, Kong Xiangxi took the lead in using his chopsticks and took a bite of every dish on the table, in order to take the initiative to prove to the two of them that the food and wine on this table were all fine.
So both parties started eating and drinking tacitly.
After three drinks and five dishes, Kong Xiangxi put down the chopsticks in his hands, and Li Qiang also put down the wine glass in his hands, silently thinking in his heart: "After such a long detour, we finally got down to business, okay?
Just let me see what kind of medicine you are selling in this gourd."
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Kong Xiangxi ask with a bit of gossip, "Mr. Li, I heard that you experienced an extraordinary journey when you came here this time. Can you tell me about your experience on this journey in detail?"
"Experience?" Li Qiang never thought that Kong Xiangxi would be so interested in this matter, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Kong Xiangxi replied with a smile: "Yes, even though I am sitting in this seat, after all, I am still a businessman. What businessmen like most is games, and your experience this time is frankly a huge game.
Naturally, I was very interested.”
"Since Mr. Kong is so elegant, I will cooperate with you. But this matter is a long story, and I really don't know where to start next time."
"It doesn't matter. Let's start from before you take off. For example, have you been given any special instructions? The more detailed the better, okay?"
"Okay." After saying that, Li Qiang tried hard to recall it, but he still shook his head in Kong Xiangxi's eyes full of curiosity and said: "It seems that there is no special explanation."
After saying that, he turned to look at Haitang again, "Really?"
"Well, indeed not. Of course, except for appointing you as his co-pilot."
"Co-pilot?" Kong Xiangxi became more energetic after hearing this.
"Yes." Li Qiang nodded and confirmed, "Just after we boarded the plane, Second Lieutenant Fang made a request, asking us to send someone to be his co-pilot, so everyone recommended me. It was easy to get familiar with it.
After following the procedures and cooperating with Second Lieutenant Fang to complete the routine pre-takeoff inspections, the aircraft began to taxi on the runway and was ready to take off."
The speaker has no intention of listening, and even though Li Qiang said it so lightly, it has already triggered a burst of ecstasy in Kong Xiangxi's heart. He quickly confirmed again: "Wait a minute, Mr. Li, you are sitting here the whole time.
In the cab, right?"
"Well, I'm afraid you'll laugh if I tell you this. The whole journey was so thrilling that I didn't even dare to go to the toilet, so I had to stay in the cab."
To be honest, Kong Xiangxi didn't have high hopes at first, or he wanted to gain something special. After all, the US military's plan to take risks to verify the feasibility of the Hump Route was tight-lipped and kept strictly confidential, even at his own expense.
It took a lot of effort to find out about such a thing.
But he never thought that the young man in front of him would not only be a witness to this trip across the hump, but also play such an important role as co-pilot, which almost made him extremely happy.
Li Qiang did not expect that his experience would make Kong Xiangxi so excited. He hurriedly spoke back and added: "Mr. Kong, please don't be so excited. Although I stayed in the cab the whole time, I didn't actually do anything.
Therefore, being able to fly over the mountains safely is entirely due to Second Lieutenant Fang's excellent driving skills, and it actually has nothing to do with me."
"Alas! Mr. Li, you can't say that. During the flight, the co-pilot's job may seem inconspicuous, but it is extremely important. Many times, it is the captain's other pair of eyes, another pair of ears and another
Opening your mouth is like sailing. No matter how high the captain's driving skills are, if he does not get the correct guidance, it will be almost impossible to move on the vast sea."
Having said this, Kong Xiangxi paused, calmed down his excitement a little, and then continued in a serious tone: "So Mr. Li, you must not underestimate this role, and you should not belittle yourself without exaggeration.
He said that without your help, this adventure would have never been successful. Even in my opinion, your contribution is no less than that of Second Lieutenant Fang!"
