The last time Fu Qi came to Haigu for business, he left a deep impression on Lu Chengzhou.
To save money, he could risk living in the city.
You know, hotels and inns in urban areas are often inspected and searched.
Although the hotels in the concession are more expensive, they are safer.
Lu Chengzhou decided to meet Fu Qi, and Fu Qi offered to go to Ningyuan, for no other reason than there was no cost there.
Moreover, Lu Chengzhou even asked him to treat him to a meal of noodles.
Fu Qi went out to buy a blue sky and white sun hat badge. It was a business trip. Even if he had something to eat, drink, and live in a nice place, what did it matter?
However, Fu Qi behaved very stingy.
In order to complete the task, Fu Qi did not hesitate to take risks.
At first, Fu Qi regarded money as more important than his life, but later on, he regarded his mission as more important than money.
After Fu Qi returned the blue sky and white sun hat badge to Nangong County, he returned to Haigu as promised, allowing Lu Chengzhou to see his integrity.
For such a person, Lu Chengzhou certainly hopes that he can join the military command. He is simply a natural-born general affairs section chief.
"I'll try to work for a while first. If I can't do it, I'll go back to Nangong County." Fu Qi thought about it and said solemnly.
In Nangong County, he is actually mainly responsible for logistics and procurement.
"The Japanese army dispatched tens of thousands of troops, preparing to wipe out all the anti-alliance forces in Jidong and central Hebei. The troops in Nangong County must also be careful not to confront the enemy head-on when encountering Japanese raids," Lu Chengzhou warned.
"Thank you, Mr. Huo, for reminding me," Fu Qi said.
Fu Qi half-recommended and served as the non-staff general affairs director of Haigu Station.
Lu Chengzhou told Fu Qi that in the future, he could contact Zeng Zilian for matters regarding Haigu Station.
After Zeng Zilian contacted Fu Qi, she introduced him to "Lu Chengzhou".
From "Match" to "Lu Chengzhou", although they are all the same person, Lu Chengzhou must treat Fu Qi in two ways.
Later, Lu Chengzhou introduced Fu Qi to Gan Dejun at Dahongqiao Wharf, and asked Fu Qi to rent a warehouse at Dahongqiao Wharf to engage in commodity trading.
Fu Qi took the initiative to contact Ma Hougu and became a wholesaler of medicinal materials and medicines at the Chinese and Western Pharmacy.
Soon, the first batch of medicines handled by Fu Qi were delivered to Fengrun County through Dahongqiao Wharf.
This batch of medicines is very important to the Seventh Route Army.
Not only did he treat the injured brothers of the Seventh Route Army, but more importantly, he gave them hope.
With logistical support, you don’t have to wait to die if you are injured.
A few days later, the 27th Detachment sent a small team to sneak into the Japanese grain warehouse near Dazhigu, taking advantage of the enemy's lax preparations.
Unable to take the food away, the soldiers decided to set fire to the food.
After a while, a raging fire burst into the sky, and the grain warehouse was quickly reduced to ashes.
After Lu Chengzhou heard the news, he was very sorry. If so much food could be moved back, how many people could be fed?
It's a pity that so much food cannot be moved away at all and can only be burned on the spot.
After Lu Chengzhou learned about it, he took the initiative to apply to Nozaki and wanted to see the scene.
"You and Tao Jie should go and have a look." Nozaki sighed.
Warehouses and warehouses in the city have been burned down by anti-Japanese elements several times, which has attracted the attention of the Japanese Haigu Army Secret Service.
"Director Lu, the arsonist this time seems different from the previous ones." Tao Jie and Lu Chengzhou quickly discovered a problem after they arrived at the Japanese army's grain warehouse.
"What?" Lu Chengzhou has also been observing.
"This time the anti-Japanese elements used force to kill the Japanese guards. Otherwise, the fire would not have suddenly become so big." Tao Jie said slowly.
In the previous arson attacks, the anti-Japanese elements used timed incendiary bombs secretly placed in the warehouse.
But this time it was not the case. All the Japanese guards were killed, so that the fire was not stopped in time before it became bigger.
"The arsonist this time is more vicious." Lu Chengzhou nodded lightly.
Ma Yuzhen is preparing to attend classes at Zhenhua Middle School, although the Japanese invaders have deleted and altered the textbooks for primary and secondary school students in the city and forcibly added some enslaving education content.
Even Zhenhua Middle School sent several Japanese teachers.
But precisely because of this, she, as a Chinese teacher, cannot back down.
Japan wants Japanese to become the first major subject for students, but Ma Yuzhen has the responsibility to tell the students that they are Chinese, and that including the current so-called Manchukuo is also Chinese territory.
"Yuzhen!"
Ma Yuzhen stayed at school until noon and was about to go back to eat. As soon as she walked out of the school gate, she heard someone calling her.
Looking back, Ma Yuzhen couldn't believe it. She trotted over and said, "Cheng Ruien, why are you back?"
"Why can't I come back?" Cheng Ruien said with a smile.
Cheng Ruien, who has been away from Haigu for more than a year, looks like a completely different person compared to before.
The bookish look on his face disappeared, replaced by a brassy complexion, and his eyes were full of perseverance and determination.
"You have changed." Ma Yuzhen hugged the book in her hand to her chest and said with a smile.
"I've been asking for a long time before I heard that you have classes here. It's almost noon, how about having a meal together?" Cheng Ruian asked.
When he came to Haigu this time, he had a mission and also wanted to chat with Ma Yuzhen.
After leaving Haigu for more than a year, Cheng Ruien has indeed become much more mature.
"I want to go back for dinner, how about we go together?" Ma Yuzhen asked.
"Are you still living in the Public Security Bureau?" Cheng Ruian asked in surprise.
"No, my mother and I both live in Lu Chengzhou's house at No. 15, No. 24 Road." Ma Yuzhen blurted out.
When she finished saying this, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, when Cheng Ruian heard that Ma Yuzhen had actually stayed at Lu Chengzhou's house, his expression suddenly changed.
During the summer vacation, I had no place to live, and my mother had to cook for Lu Chengzhou, so I stayed at his house temporarily.
"How is Lu Chengzhou doing now? Has he harmed the people and acted as a puppet for the Japanese?" Cheng Ruian asked calmly.
"He's... okay now." Ma Yuzhen couldn't find the right words to introduce Lu Chengzhou.
In the past, Cheng Ruien believed that Lu Chengzhou was a Japanese spy, and she felt the same way at the time.
However, it was only now discovered that Lu Chengzhou had been resisting Japan all along.
When she and Cheng Ruien were still in Ningyuan, discussing the demonstration with other students, Lu Chengzhou was already secretly having a confrontation with the Japanese secret service.
"Let's find a place to eat alone. I don't want to see this traitor." Cheng Ruien said coldly.
He returned to Haigu this time to shoulder other tasks, otherwise, he really wanted to get rid of Lu Chengzhou.
He and Lu Chengzhou fought alone before and were no match.
But for more than a year, he had stayed in the army and killed several Japanese with his own hands, so he was no longer afraid of Lu Chengzhou.
"Okay, let's go to the French Concession. It's quieter there." Ma Yuzhen thought for a while and said.
The French Concession is indeed quieter and safer than the British Concession.
As Cheng Ruien, he is more suitable to appear in the French Concession.
ps: A new month has begun, starting with asking for the first monthly pass.
