56. Two tons
As soon as the car lights outside the Xu Mansion flashed, several people in the house came out of the house, and when they saw the two people who got out of the car, several people breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Da saw that several people were outside, and opened his mouth to ask Xu Mao about the situation, Xu Ying sighed lightly when he heard the words and said: "You go in and take a look, he woke up, Aunt Xu knows what he did, this will still cry inside, Xu Zhi has been scolding Xu Mao since he woke up, saying that he ruined all her hopes, only Xu Mao, this will still be like a stubborn donkey, he feels that he is right, and he said that he will wait for you to come back and reason." â
"Reasonable?" Xu Da snorted coldly, "Is he still reasonable?" I'm going to see what he can say. When it came to Xu Mao, Xu Da didn't come anywhere, he would take off his coat and throw it directly on the sofa, and go to Xu Mao with a gloomy face. And Xu Lian and a few people hurriedly surrounded Lin Xiangyi and asked about the matter over there. With a trace of anger that had not subsided, Lin Xiangyi told a few people what she had seen, and after speaking, she saw that several other people were also angry with red faces and thick necks.
"These brutes can't be relieved of their hatred if they are really killed." Xu Ying gritted her teeth and said, "It's really unreasonable to be so rampant in our land. â
Xu Ming, Xu Bang, and Xu Lian glanced at each other, and strengthened their determination to participate in the revolution, Lin Xiangyi looked at the four of them with an angry face, waved his hand a little tiredly, and went back to his room after saying goodbye to the four. How Xu Da told Xu Mao, no one knows, but at dawn the next day, Xu Mao agreed to leave Shanghai with others and return to Xujia Village.
After sending a few people away, the entire Xu family suddenly quieted down, and there were only Xu Da and Lin Xiangyi in the huge room, of course, there were two children and two nannies in the nursery, but these two big and two small ones have always had no sense of zĂ i, so as soon as a few young men left, the room instantly became deserted.
"You used to live alone in such a big house?" Lin Xiangyi looked back at the first and second floors and sighed, "It's really lonely, these boys are not here, and no one has made breakfast." â
"I'm used to it, I'm not used to having too many people at home." Xu Da smiled, "Let's go out and eat, and I'll cook when I come back in the evening." â
Lin Xiangyi nodded, this house is really much bigger than her newly renovated house, and suddenly everyone is gone, and she is really a little unaccustomed: "It's really not good, let's find someone to help, you are so busy, you can't eat out every day." â
"It's okay, how busy you can be, you still have the time to eat a meal." Xu Da smiled, "The two nannies will solve it themselves, and the two of us just need to take care of ourselves." â
Seeing that Xu Da had made up her mind, Lin Xiangyi didn't say anything anymore, but she made up her mind to wait for her to move back to her house, so she must ask someone to cook, otherwise she would always run here and wait for Xu Da to cook, she felt that she would definitely be exhausted to death. Lin Xiangyi went out to see the two children and checked their bodies before going out with Xu Da. The two of them went to the street to have breakfast, and then went separately to get busy.
As soon as Lin Xiangyi arrived at the store, he saw Liu Yun holding Zhang Fang's hand and saying something, and Zhang Fang was obviously not improving very well, and the big dark circles under her eyes were very obvious. As soon as the two saw Lin Xiangyi coming in, they hurriedly stood up and said hello.
"It scared you last night." Lin Xiangyi patted Zhang Fang's shoulder and said, "It's all over, these things won't happen in the future." In fact, Lin Xiangyi was not so sure, but last night's incident strengthened her determination to push the war of resistance further. She couldn't stand the inaction of the authorities, these things happened, it was impossible that the authorities didn't receive any news, but everyone was silent, let this situation get worse, and let those beasts do evil in their own land. Now it seems that Lin Xiangyi feels that the Communist Party has to do better, even if it is poor and wants to die, but at least this group of people still has the blood of not being slaves to the country.
"Sister Lin, thank you last night." Zhang Fang's sincere thanks, "If you hadn't asked someone to help, I'm afraid it would have been ruined now." â
"What stupid things to say, I brought you all out, and I'm already guilty of putting you in danger." Zhang Duan was already angry with Lin Xiangyi, so she knew what Zhang Duan said to the outside world, "I'm afraid that there will be turmoil in this matter for the time being, you tell everyone to keep their mouths shut and don't talk nonsense, so many Japanese soldiers died last night, I'm afraid that the Japanese won't give up, there have been many things in the city recently, everyone should be careful." â
"I've already told you when I first came, Sister Lin, don't worry, everyone doesn't want to mention these things, so they won't talk nonsense." Zhang Fang's heart is stronger than ordinary people, she tossed and turned last night and couldn't sleep, but it was also this night, she figured out a lot, although this accident had some impact on her, but she would still try to overcome it.
Lin Xiangyi nodded, and was about to say something when he heard the wind chimes ringing at the door of the store, and Zhang Fang and Liu Yun immediately welcomed the guests in with smiles. Lin Xiangyi saw that it was not one of those high-level members who needed to be taken care of by himself, so he no longer planned to waste time here.
"Liu Yun, you help Zhang Fang entertain the guests together today, and let her go to rest for a while." Lin Xiangyi instructed, "There is an appointment for Miss Yang today, when she comes, you come to the back office and call me, and you can go to the second floor to rest first." â
Liu Yun smiled and replied that she knew, Lin Xiangyi no longer cared about the affairs of these individual customers in front of her, she was now going to develop new drugs and go to the black market to exchange money, she thought about it all night last night, Lin Xiangyi felt that the money on the black market came quickly, so that she could realize her promise to Yan'an as soon as possible and support the war of resistance economically.
When Yang Yi came, it was lunch time, Lin Xiangyi had just ordered takeout and the girl in the store had finished lunch, and Yang Yi pushed the door in.
"Miss Yang, you're here, please on the second floor." During the lunch break, everyone was eating in the lounge separated by glass, and they were not afraid that there would be guests at this point, so they hurriedly put down the bowl, and Liu Yun greeted them.
"Excuse me, I only have a little time at noon today, so it's two hours later than the appointment." Yang Yi smiled and explained the reason why he was late, Lin Xiangyi smiled and put down the dishes and chopsticks, simply cleaned up and asked Liu Yun to eat, and beckoned Yang Yi to the second floor.
"Sister Lin is really considerate, such a boss is really rare." After last night's incident, Liu Wen completely settled down, she felt that she had the confidence to do things with a boss like Lin Xiangyi, and dared to do anything that offended the Japanese, Liu Wen can imagine that as long as she does things for Lin Xiangyi well, if she has difficulties in the future, Lin Xiangyi will definitely lend a helping hand to her, so after last night's incident, Liu Wen can be regarded as having a real sense of belonging to Qingben Beauty.
Liu Yun nodded, she really didn't expect Lin Xiangyi to deal with the matter last night so decisively, and invited so many people to save people, Liu Yun thought in her heart, I was afraid that Lin Xiangyi would pay a lot of money. But today, Lin Xiangyi didn't talk about last night's incident, which made Liu Yun's good impression of her go to the next level.
"Looking at the adoring eyes of those little girls, they can't hide it." Yang Yi teased in a low voice, "The organization sent a telegram today, saying that you have done a good job, no matter which task it is, they will give you credit, and when the Anti-Japanese War is won, they will reward you for your meritorious deeds." â
"Don't pour me ** soup, you're here so late today, but what's the matter? I've been to see that hummingbird a few times, and it's almost recovered, so it should have some other mission? Lin Xiangyi smiled and pushed Yang Yi into the beauty room and said, "You say, I'll serve you." â
"Hey, it's really a**!" Yang Yi took off his shoes, changed into his own special loose casual clothes, and let Lin Xiangyi toss on himself, "One of the rescued children died, and the others are already safe, the organization said that you want to accept students, I just want to say, do you have any fancy to these children?" â
"Don't even think about it, those faces may be somewhat impressed by the Japanese, I was crazy to find those children, for safety, you still send them far away, even if they are sent to Yan'an for cultivation, it is better than sending them to me." Lin Xiangyi refused without thinking about it, "Okay, then you can talk about the second thing." â
"We need to rescue our comrades who have been arrested." Yang Yi put away the smile on his face and said, "In addition to the arrest of a few comrades on the Hummingbird line, we also have to rescue one of the most important people, this person is of great help to the organization, and the organization orders us to rescue people and send them out of Shanghai, and it is best to let him go to Hong Kong, where he has a family." â
"Who?" Lin Xiangyi was a little curious for a while.
"Li Guoen, you should know this person." Yang Yi turned his head and glanced at Lin Xiangyi and said, "The general manager of HSBC." â
Lin Xiangyi nodded and said, "He is also our comrade?" â
"No, but he has been secretly funding us, since the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, he has led more than two tons of gold to change hands, all of which have passed through Hong Kong to the base area, and without his funding over the years, the conditions in the base area will be even more difficult. Some time ago, he was exposed, and the military commander arrested him, and now the order to shoot has come down, tomorrow night. The ships are ready to meet the organization, and as soon as we get the man out, someone will come and send him away. â
Two tons of gold? Lin Xiangyi had a stuffy stick in her mind, this supernumerary staff can contribute two tons of gold so selflessly, so she once said that she was ashamed to use the economy to support the war of resistance, wouldn't she have to ship out more? Lin Xiangyi thought in his heart, this big yellow croaker has 300 grams, so 2 tons is more than 6,600 big yellow croaker, Lin Xiangyi really can't imagine whether this person went to rob the bank, otherwise how could there be so much gold.
"What are you thinking?" Yang Yi looked at Lin Xiangyi in a daze, a little strange, "This task is basically participated in by comrades in Shanghai, you are good, even the hummingbird admires you very much, saying that as long as you go out, the task will definitely be fine." â
"That's a great thank you for his kindness." Lin Xiangyi laughed dryly, she really couldn't get so much money for a while, so she had to work hard to carry out the task, as the saying goes, if you have money to pay, you have the power to contribute, and if she rescues someone who can make money, then it is also disguised as funding the War of Resistance.
"You tell me the details of the mission, and I will try my best to save people tomorrow night." Lin Xiangyi said.
"You still have to bring some medicine, I heard that people are only left in the toss, we must ensure his life." Yang Yi advised, "You are a living immortal, you are all snatching people from the hands of Lord Yama, I will prepare the things for surgery when the time comes, and you will have to come with those precious medicinal materials, after all, I don't understand this." â
"Got it." Lin Xiangyi nodded, remembering Yang Yi's next words one by one, and in the end, she picked up the notebook that recorded Yang Yi's condition very dedicatedly, and filled in today's pulse and physical condition one by one.
