Seeing that the situation was not going well, Sister Mei stood up and left directly: "Boss Chen, if Mr. Bi asks, just reply to him and bring the sisters over on time to ensure that the Japanese friends are satisfied."
Chen Baoxiang sent him out, and Sister Mei got on the rickshaw, waved her handkerchief, and said goodbye with a smile.
Liu Yue'e stood on the steps and muttered bitterly: "Such a rotten woman also comes to the rice shop and soils our tables, chairs and benches. Master, when we get to the Grand View Garden, let's make a rule first and never entertain such people!"
Chen Baoxiang was helpless, this was a banquet hosted by Bing Gong, and he had the final say as to who to invite to accompany him.
Near noon, Chen Baoxiang accompanied Liu Yuee to the Guandi Temple on Furong Street.
He was also uneasy in his heart, so it was a good thing to come to Guandi Temple to worship.
After entering the Guandi Temple, they both burned incense at the same time and kowtowed three times in front of the statue of Lord Guan.
Liu Yue'e walked to the place where the lots were drawn, clasped her hands together, and prayed silently. Then she drew a lot and sent it to the gentleman who interpreted the lot to ask about the future of her family.
The husband looked at the stick, flipped through the book, and opened his mouth to sign: "Madam, this is the thirty-sixth Buddha's spiritual stick. King Wen met Fengming and signed it. The poem on the signature said, The Eight Immortals went to Yaochi,
Five horses enter the courtyard; the phoenix dances in the sky and the earth is drunk, and the gold plate holds the jade cup; everything is of low quality, only reading is high. My wife asked about the future of the whole family, that would be wonderful - there is great joy in seeing fish transform into dragons, and cutting stones to get gold.
It is a sign. At the same time, there is a phoenix-footed unicorn in my family, and the Wenqu star descends to earth, which brings great good fortune and is beyond words."
Liu Yue'e was overjoyed, smiling broadly, and looked back at Chen Baoxiang: "The head of the family, the Wenqu star must be Xiu'er. This child has been smart since she was a child, has a photographic memory, and will be promising in the future. After attending private school, I want to send her to study abroad.
Xuetang, do you agree?"
Chen Baoxiang nodded, but before he spoke, someone greeted him under the eaves: "Boss Chen, long time no see, why don't you come here to sit down?"
He looked up and saw that the man was wearing a long robe and a top hat. He was polite and had a kind face, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
The man stood up and introduced himself: "I am a friend of Boss Mu. My surname is Lu, and my mouth is Lu."
Chen Baoxiang remembered that he had indeed seen this man at Mr. Mu's place.
Mr. Mu is from Wanhualou, so this person is probably also Lian Chengbi's subordinate.
Chen Baoxiang asked Liu Yue'e to go back by herself and sit down to talk to Mr. Lu.
Sure enough, Mr. Lu is from Wanhualou.
When Chen Baoxiang left the rice shop, Wanhualou got the news. Mr. Lu came out to greet him and took Chen Baoxiang into the backyard of the cheongsam shop.
This time, in addition to Mr. Lu, Wanhualou has added a long-haired beauty named Ling Yunzhu.
Gu Lanchun said: "Yunzhu is good at explosive blasting. There was a big problem with the explosive package last time. Now she is directly responsible for the matter and guarantees that it will not delay the life and death plan."
Ling Yunzhu looked at Chen Baoxiang, his face as cold as frost and expressionless.
Mr. Lu's nickname is "Lü Changji". He was once the main force in the Southern Army's assassin group. When he was young, he repeatedly assassinated enemies in Huangpu and established great achievements.
When Gu Lanchun introduced him, he mentioned the name "Cangtian White Crane". In the past, there was no such person as Lu Changji in the world, only the name of the great killer "Cangtian White Crane Lu Wenhou".
Wherever the white crane passes, the chickens and dogs will not be left behind.
Under the sky, Marquis Wen is the first.
"That's all in the past. It's just a false name, like a floating cloud. At the moment, I just want to work with Wanhualou to do some practical things that benefit the country and the people. For example, this time, I brought Mr. Funakoshi, an important Japanese official, with Bi Gong and Bi Jing.
Send it to the west."
Lu Changji smiled and spread the map on the Eight Immortals table.
Chen Baoxiang's heart suddenly sank, because in the center of the map was the Chen Family Rice Shop.
"Everyone, strictly speaking, four explosive packets are enough to blow up the target into a large crater one foot deep. However, our plan is this. Once we get it, we will make it safe. We will extend it three meters along the main target's perimeter.
In ten steps, all the Japanese guards will be wiped out. This battle is the first shot of the Southern Army's declaration of war against the Japanese invaders in Jinan. It must be accurate, loud, and cruel. Do you understand?"
Ling Yunzhu pressed the map and marked eight points with a pencil.
"Twelve explosive packets were detonated one after another. The core was exploded first, and the first round of smoke cleared. The guards outside rushed in to rescue, and then the second round was triggered, all at once."
Wen Dujuan took the pencil and drew a dotted line along the surrounding high points to form a large ring.
"I lead the assassination team to eliminate the snipers one by one. It can be completed in about an hour. The detonation and assassination are carried out at the same time and do not affect each other."
Lu Changji pointed at Gu Lanchun: "These are all bluffs. The ultimate goal is still with you."
Gu Lanchun nodded: "Yes, there will be an explosion here. My people will start at Meridian 6 and Weiliu, kill all the Japanese soldiers guarding the box, and then organize an explosion to destroy all the instruments."
Chen Baoxiang suddenly realized that Wanhualou's work was done in a blind way, and there was no way for the enemy to guard against it.
After Lu Changji arranged everything, he picked up a pencil and drew a thick, black north-south line on Furong Street.
It goes to Daming Lake Tiegong Temple in the north and Shizikou Street of Luoyuan Gongguan in the south.
"Everyone, before and after the battle started, I led people to intercept this place. This is the border between Chu and Han. If the enemy wants to rescue from east to west, I will set up fortifications at every intersection to block and delay. Remember, if Jing Liu Wei Liu succeeds, Boss Gu will shoot
With the signal flare, we can retreat separately, we are done, and the battle is won."
As Chen Baoxiang listened, his mind became clearer and clearer.
None of the participants took his feelings into consideration.
Blowing up the rice shop is equivalent to destroying the Chen family's foundation.
The reason why a broken home is worth tens of thousands of dollars is because there are memories of him and Liu Yuee's hard work in starting a business.
At this moment, the people standing in front of him were all anti-Japanese heroes. As they talked and laughed, their boats and oars were turned into ashes, turning the huge city of Jinan upside down.
After success, everyone requested credit from the Southern Army Headquarters and everyone became famous.
"Can you adopt another strategy? Mi Mi Pu is my root. If Mi Mi Pu is fried, how will I settle down?"
Gu Lanchun separated from the crowd and walked up to Chen Baoxiang: "The Grand Master has given an order to help you rebuild your home after the victory of the war. With the national crisis facing us, everyone has the obligation to dedicate everything to eliminate the Japanese devils."
Chen Baoxiang looked at Gu Lanchun, then looked down at the map.
The fate of Rice Shop does not depend on him, nor does it depend on Bing Gong, but on the heroines of Wanhualou in front of them.
If he was not a fool, he would have to stand up and pass on the text and martial arts for Liu Yue'e. Xiu'er said something: "Everyone... everyone, the rice shop is my home. It can't be blown up like this. It doesn't matter if you kill the Japanese, you have to give it to me."
You have to be reasonable when it comes to keeping a place to live, right?"
Having said this, Chen Baoxiang felt sad.
He has many ways to keep the rice shop. One of the shortcuts is to report Wanhualou to stop this operation.
However, the one who wants fried rice is Gu Lanchun from Tsing Yi.
He once swore that he was willing to risk his life for Gu Lanchun, break his body into pieces, and even die in her place.
Now that things are so inconsistent, he doesn't know how to deal with them.
"Boss Chen, do you mean to refuse to join Wanhualou's operation?"
Lu Changji smiled gently, lowered his hand and took out his gun, quickly screwed the silencer on the barrel, and then pointed it at Chen Baoxiang.
"There is no other way. You already know our secret. In order to succeed in the operation, I can only kill people and silence them. I believe you can understand, right?"
In an instant, Wen Dujuan and Ling Yunzhu, who were allies just now, retreated, stood behind Lu Changji, and isolated Chen Baoxiang.
"If you don't agree, you will die?"
"Yes, Boss Chen, everything is of inferior quality, only martyrs are high. I came from the Southern Army headquarters, and I was already prepared to die. If I die, the Southern Army will recognize me as a martyr and inspire generations of young people to win.
Pick up my gun and keep fighting. As for you, I really can’t help it, I have to do it whether I do it or not—".
