"Stationmaster Qiao, let me ask you, if the foundation is rotten, how to repair it?"
"What is Mr. Wei's basis for saying that the foundation is rotten?"
"It is simply a fantasy for an official to take advantage of his position and completely disregard the country's devastation, and only focus on amassing money and lining his own pockets. It is simply a fantasy to expect such a government to lead the rejuvenation of the nation!"
"Black sheep are inevitable in any era and in any country. Your views are too general and too arbitrary!"
"Forget it, there's no point in arguing about this. The last thing I want to say is that the foundation is rotten. Instead of living in a crumbling house, it's better to tear it down and rebuild!"
After listening to Wei Zhongwen's remarks, Qiao Mu realized that he was an unconvincable die-hard, and the only way to deal with such a person was with a whip and a branding iron!
After coming out of the infirmary, Qiao Mucai said with emotion: "I have to say that the Communist Party's loyalty to its beliefs is definitely better than ours! How many of our people would rather die than surrender if they were captured?"
Jiang Xinyu said: "On this point, I disagree with your statement. When our people encounter similar situations, I believe that although they cannot be said to be 100% loyal to the party and state, they are at least no worse than the Communist Party!"
Qiao Mu shook his head, hesitated to speak, opened the car door, got in, and ordered: "Drive."
Watching the car slowly leave Yanjin Station, Jiang Xinyu secretly made up his mind to find a way to rescue Wei Zhongwen. Such a comrade's sacrifice cannot be in vain!
…………
When he returned home, there was a brocade box on the cabinet in the bedroom. Jiang Xinyu asked: "Mina, what is this?"
"Oh, it was left by Mr. Wang. He said it was a gift from the antique dealer." Hattori Mina said.
"Did he come by himself?"
"Well, I just left a while ago."
Jiang Xinyu opened the brocade box. Inside was a jade bracelet. He held it in front of the window and faced the sun. It looked like translucent ice and snow. It should be the best Laokeng variety.
"That book sold for three gold bars!" Hattori Mina said.
There are unwritten rules for black market transactions, which must be settled in gold, silver or US dollars. This is to avoid the rapid depreciation of legal currency.
Hattori Mina said: "I can't believe that book is so valuable!"
Jiang Xinyu said: "There are very few copies of that book in existence. It may be an only copy. If it passes in a few years, it will be even more valuable!"
As he spoke, he put the jade bracelet on Hattori Mina's wrist.
Hattori Mina then took it off again, put it back into the brocade box, and said, "No one wears two bracelets."
Jiang Xinyu said: "This one is more valuable."
Stroking the jade bracelet on her wrist, Hattori Mina looked at Jiang Xinyu lovingly and said softly: "In my heart, I will never exchange the thousand pieces of gold you gave me!"
Looking at his shy and lovely wife, Jiang Xinyu couldn't help but put his arms around her...
"Mina, is Rongrong asleep?" The bedroom door rang and Tongtong stepped in.
The two people who were being affectionate separated as if they were electrocuted. Hattori Mina blushed and turned around, arranging her slightly messy clothes.
Jiang Xinyu was also embarrassed. He coughed dryly and said, "Tongtong, why did you come in without knocking?"
Even in this situation, Tong Tong still made excuses and muttered: "Who knew you were like this in broad daylight..."
"Tongtong, thank you, that book was sold." Hattori Mina quickly changed the subject.
Tong Tong said: "No matter how polite you are, you are not an outsider!"
Seeing the jade bracelet in the brocade box, Tong Tong's eyes lit up, he reached out to pick it up, played with it admiringly, and praised: "It's so beautiful..."
Hattori Mina thought for a moment and then said a few words to Jiang Xinyu.
Jiang Xinyu smiled and said, "It's up to you."
Hattori Mina smiled knowingly, came to Tong Tong and said, "Since Miss Tong likes it, I will give it to you."
"Give it to me?"
"Um."
"No regrets?"
Hattori Mina smiled and said: "I'm not a child, how could I regret it?"
"Thank you!"
Tong Tong was not polite, put the bracelet on his wrist and said, "Does it look good?"
"It's beautiful." Hattori Mina said.
Tong Tong turned to Jiang Xinyu and said, "What do you think?"
"It's okay." Jiang Xinyu said.
Tongtong rolled his eyes, grabbed Hattori Mina's arm, held up two bracelets, one white and one green, and said, "Which one looks better?"
"They all look good." Jiang Xinyu said perfunctorily.
Tong Tong has never been a knowledgeable person. Ever since Jiang Xinyu made it clear that he liked her, he felt an inexplicable sense of superiority and said, "No, I must choose a better-looking one!"
Hattori Mina calmed down the matter and did not want to embarrass Jiang Xinyu, so she said: "Of course Miss Tong's one is more beautiful."
Jiang Xinyu said: "You guys chat, I'll go to the study."
I came to the study, closed the door, lit a cigarette, sat back on the chair and thought about my thoughts.
Most of the valuables at home have to be handed over to the organization, and these things must be made to disappear in a reasonable way, otherwise there will be no way to explain it to Mina!
This matter is easy. Setting up a theft scene is not difficult for Jiang Xinyu. What troubles him the most is how to rescue Wei Zhongwen!
The Security Bureau is heavily guarded. If you want to successfully rescue people, you will definitely not be able to rely on recklessness...
Unable to think of a clue, Jiang Xinyu reached out to turn on the radio and tuned to the band of Yan'an Xinhua Radio Station: "...At the time of the peace talks between the two parties, at noon yesterday, two bombers from the national army raided Yan'an and dropped several bombs, killing many innocent people.
Deaths and injuries, this kind of public breach of the agreement and betrayal of trust is outrageous, and we strongly protest against this..."
Jiang Xinyu knew very well that this should be a targeted bombing targeting Chief No. 1!
Jiang Xinyu couldn't sit still, turned off the radio, stood up and left the study. He was eager to know the results. Concealing reports was sometimes a strategy. It was hard to say what happened to Chief No. 1 now.
When passing by the bedroom, he vaguely heard the voices of Hattori Mina and Tong Tong. Jiang Xinyu quickly walked down the stairs without saying hello to them.
…………
Ten minutes later.
Xiaoxiao Bookstore.
Because it was a public holiday, there were many customers in the bookstore. There were several young students in the tearoom, drinking soda and reading.
Jiang Xinyu stepped into the store, looked around, and said, "Boss Chu, do you have any red silk inkstones?"
Chu Xiaoxiao said: "No, the red silk inkstone is temporarily out of stock."
"I visited several stores and they all said that red silk inkstones were out of stock. Suddenly there are more people studying?"
"Is Mr. Jiang using it for himself?"
"right."
"I have some good porcelain inkstones here. Do you want to take a look?"
"Okay, just don't make this trip in vain."
"You come with me."
Behind the bookstore was a small warehouse. Chu Xiaoxiao opened the door of the warehouse and the two of them walked in one after the other.
The warehouse door has glass, so you can see what's going on outside. Chu Xiaoxiao found a few inkstones and put them on the table, and whispered: "You shouldn't come, we meet too often!"
"I know." Jiang Xinyu picked up an inkstone, looked at it over and over, and said, "I just heard on the radio that Hu Zongnan's troops sent planes to bomb Yan'an. I really can't feel relieved."
Chu Xiaoxiao could understand Jiang Xinyu's mood and did not blame him too much. He said: "It's really thrilling to say it. Fortunately, your information was timely. The guards had no time to explain. At the critical moment, they took the No. 1 leader out of the room. In one minute,
Finally, the bomb accurately hit that room..."
"Is the chief okay?" Jiang Xinyu asked anxiously.
"There was no danger. Two guards sacrificed their lives to protect the leader, and they... died!" Chu Xiaoxiao said with a sad expression.
