Chapter Seventy-Nine: Leisurely

Tang Cheng's heart has actually been very entangled, and he still retains the memory of this later generation, and he clearly knows the general plan of the Japanese army to attack China, and the time when the war will break out in full force, but he doesn't know whether he should tell others about this. Telling someone something that hasn't happened yet is likely to be regarded as a psychopath by others, but it is also likely to become a target for people with intentions to control. Tang Cheng didn't want to be neurotic, and he didn't want to be controlled, so he endured it until now.

But Zhang Jianghe had already told him today that the transfer order to Chongqing might come down soon, and Tang Cheng, who felt quite helpless in his heart, suddenly realized that there was not much time left for him. The family has been sent to Chongqing, Zhou Hongxiang and Zhang Jianghe will also go south to Chongqing with him in the near future, and there are no relatives of their own in Nanjing. For those compatriots who may be killed or injured in the war and under the butcher's knife of the Japanese army, Tang Cheng can only silently say sorry in his heart, because even if Tang Cheng spreads a message in the city at the moment about Nanjing being affected by the war, I am afraid that no one will believe it, after all, the war has not yet happened.

Something that hasn't happened yet, no matter what reason you have, those ordinary people who only pay attention to firewood, rice, oil and salt on weekdays will never believe it, not to mention that many of them have been living here for many years. It is difficult to leave the homeland, and if you say that it sounds good, it is nostalgic for the old, and if it is difficult to hear, it is the thinking consciousness that is at work. But Tang Cheng didn't have anything to do about it, so he could only save one now, and Xu Huanshan was one of them.

Tang Cheng couldn't say that this news came from the memories of his later generations, and Hans's sudden appearance and disappearance in Nanjing just gave Tang Cheng the convenience of using an excuse for the source. No matter how Xu Huanshan and they find and confirm it afterwards, at most they will only trace Hans's body, but Hans is a person from the German intelligence department. Xu Huanshan, who tracked down this, would only think that the news that Tang Cheng revealed to Xu Huanshan came from the mouth of Hans, a German intelligence officer, because Tang Cheng and this German were friends. And this can be proved by Zhou Hongxiang, who used to be a peripheral member of the underground party organization in Shanghai.

In order to create this opportunity, Tang Cheng pondered for a long time and took the initiative to take in Zhou Hongxiang, not because of Zhou Hongxiang's heroic face, but because Zhou Hongxiang was once a peripheral member of the Shanghai underground party. Tang Cheng took the initiative to take in and treat Zhou Hongjiao, completely under the idea of killing two birds with one stone, one of which was to give Zhang Jiang and this lonely goose a chance to resume contact with the underground party. The second is what Tang Cheng has been pondering, and he took the initiative to expose the flaw of Zhou Hong's makeup to Hans, so that he can completely get in touch with Hans.

It turned out later that Tang Cheng's idea was correct, and Hans, who originally didn't trust Tang Cheng very much, not only handled an identity certificate for Zhou Hongxiang as a peripheral member of the German intelligence service in China for Zhou Hongxiang, but also revealed Joseph's identity to Tang Cheng. With Zhou Hongxiang holding the handle in his hand, Hans, a China expert, was not afraid that Tang Cheng would be unfavorable to him, but he didn't know that this handle was given to him by Tang Cheng on his own initiative.

Tang Cheng never really believed Hans, especially after he learned that Hans was working for German intelligence, and even though many people had to act against their will, Tang Cheng did not think that a foreigner who came to China to engage in intelligence work would become his true friend. Tang Cheng has always felt that the relationship between himself and Hans is the most naked connection of interests, especially when the little Jewish girl Alice appeared in front of him, Tang Cheng thought that the connection of interests between himself and Hans seemed to be more solid.

Alice, a Jewish girl who suddenly appeared, seemed to Tang Cheng to be the opportunity he had been waiting for. Because of Alice's appearance, Tang Cheng is no longer worried that Hans will betray him or use Zhou Hong's original identity to blackmail him. Because of Alice's appearance, Tang Cheng unexpectedly learned that Hans and Joseph were not really convinced by the German Nazi government, and after all this was repeatedly analyzed and deduced by Tang Cheng, it gave him the motivation to confide in Xu Huanshan some sensitive content.

Something that would only happen in a few months was said by Tang Cheng to be reasonable, and after separating from Tang Cheng, Xu Huanshan immediately contacted his upline urgently, and passed the news to the top of the underground party organization in Nanjing through special channels. The Nanjing underground party, which had chosen to lie dormant for the time being, was also confused by this sudden news, but after a simple round of discussions, many of them thought that this news was just nonsense, Nanjing was the national capital, and even if the Nationalist Government did not give its strength, those foreign powers with consulates in Nanjing would not sit idly by and watch something happen in Nanjing.

Tang Cheng, who revealed the news to Xu Huanshan, naturally would not know about the subsequent events, because even if he knew the attitude of the underground party organization in Nanjing, he was powerless to interfere. Two days passed quickly, and the woodware store that Tang Cheng found three days ago sent someone to deliver the goods, and there were more than a dozen jewelry boxes and bracelets made of red sandalwood, but Tang Cheng's favorite was the two pairs of wooden walnuts made of red sandalwood.

"Uncle, this is a good thing, often playing with this thing, not only can you practice your hands, but also prevent many diseases." After settling the balance with the people from the carpentry shop, Tang Cheng stuffed one of the pairs of red sandalwood walnuts to Zhang Jianghe. Zhou Hongxiang was not interested in these, but was still forced by Tang Cheng to stuff a jewelry box and a string of red sandalwood bracelets. "Take it, this thing is yours! Keep it well, it will be worth some money in the future. Tang Cheng's intolerance made Zhou Hongxiang have to accept the jewelry box and bracelet.

Zhang Jianghe was a little annoyed by Tang Cheng's undoing business, but after he held the red sandalwood walnuts in one hand and played with them for a while, he gradually liked this thing. Rosewood grows slowly, almost an unsustainable resource, and Tang Cheng tossed these things, naturally for the sake of the future. Seeing that Zhang Jianghe did not preach to himself because of this, Tang Cheng was like a wild horse that had taken off the reins, and in the next few days, he got a lot of rosewood through the Chinese.

"Seat, according to your request, my subordinates have been keeping an eye on that kid, but that kid's activities in the past few days have been somewhat unexpected by us." In the director's office in the intelligence department building, Cao Wanchun put a record on his desk, and the director with a calm face opened the record book, only glanced at it a few times, and then casually threw the record book aside. Seeing this, Cao Wanchun said softly, "I don't know what evil that kid has fallen into, he has been looking for someone to collect red sandalwood everywhere these days, whether it is big material or small materials, he wants it." ”

When Cao Wanchun spoke, he had been paying attention to the director's reaction, and since Zhang Jianghe slapped the table in the conference room that night, Tang Cheng had not come to the intelligence compound again. The lord in front of him asked himself to arrange for someone to keep an eye on Tang Cheng, and Cao Wanchun couldn't guess whether this errand was good or bad, so he could only explain that his subordinates must make a record when they were keeping an eye on Tang Cheng. It's just that according to Cao Wanchun's experience, the stalking of Tang Cheng in the past two days was a failure, because there was nothing worth keeping an eye on that kid.

Every day, he doesn't go out until the sun rises, and even if he goes out, he just drinks tea and chats with a few people in the wood, or he goes to those fixed wood shops to hang out, and the only thing Cao Wanchun cares about at the moment is what the kid is going to do when he collects so much red sandalwood. "Continue to send people to keep an eye on that kid, Zhang Jianghe has suffered such a big loss this time, I don't believe that kid can always be so calm." After a little thought, the answer given by the director was beyond Cao Wanchun's expectations.

But the director's order is like this, Cao Wanchun can only echo and not disobey, and he has already seen from the director's expression that he didn't want to do anything to that kid by keeping an eye on Tang Cheng, maybe this is a means of protection for that kid by the director. Tang Cheng has been very leisurely in the past few days, and he doesn't know that he has been watched, he has been busy collecting red sandalwood materials for the past few days, and he has been busy all day long.

Although Nanjing is the national capital, and there are many dignitaries and nobles living here, there are very few people who are interested in selling red sandalwood. Tang Cheng has taken great pains in the past two days, looking for red sandalwood materials from many wood people, and even asked acquaintances from antique shops and pawnshops to help, but he only bought red sandalwood materials that were only enough to make a few screens and some small ornaments. A lot of fiat currency was sold, in exchange for these red sandalwood materials in front of them, Zhou Hongxiang and Zhang Jianghe no longer knew whether they should be happy or distressed.

"Look at your shallow eyelids!" Tang Cheng, the initiator, did not accept the accusations of Zhou Hongxiang and Zhang Jianghe, but began to argue with the two of them in a heartfelt manner. "The depreciation of this fiat currency is sky-high, although the current depreciation speed is not fast, but if it continues like this, maybe the fiat currency will not be worth much that day. Banks have long ceased exchanging fiat currency for gold and foreign currency, and if they don't spend these fiat currencies early, will they still stay in their hands and wait to become waste paper? ”

Tang Cheng had a lot of fiat currency in his hand, some of which he brought back from Shanghai, and some that he snatched from Zhao Shanhai's safe that night. Although Zhang Jianghe didn't know how much fiat currency Tang Cheng still had in his hand, the depreciation of fiat currency was an indisputable fact, so Tang Cheng said this, and Zhang Jianghe couldn't think of how to refute Tang Cheng for a while. "Besides, didn't your old man tell me to stay at home and not go out and make trouble? Then it's always okay for me to toss these pieces of wood at home, right? ”

Tang Cheng's almost scoundrel-like quibbles made Zhang Jianghe speechless, but the look on Tang Cheng's face was indeed unbeatable, and Zhang Jianghe, who was annoyed and angry, immediately ignored it, and directly beckoned Zhou Hongxiang to help hold down Tang Cheng, and then rewarded Tang Cheng with a few shocks. Secretary Yao, who came to Zhang's house with an order, walked into Zhang's house just in time for this scene, the scene of a family of three laughing and making a mess in the city, Secretary Yao couldn't cry or laugh when he saw it.
