Zhou Lin was overjoyed when he heard this, this group of people must go to Nanyang.

Mr. Fang left an address and name of his second uncle.

Zhou Lin took out a 1,000 yuan side coin from his body: "This is for the relatives at home, I only changed it for 1,000 yuan, I am afraid that people will suspect you." ”

Border currency, unlike the ocean and fiat currency, is a currency issued by the government of the border region.

With fiat currency, someone is sure to pay attention to you; With edge coins, no one suspects you.

After Mr. Fang accepted the side coin, he knocked on the door, and immediately, the door of the interrogation room was opened.

is still the one who sent Zhou Lin, and he is also the one who sent Zhou Lin back.

Zhou Lin returned to the prison in handcuffs. I didn't expect that the prison guard of that day was still on duty there, actually waiting for him.

"How's the interrogation?" The prison guard asked.

Zhou Lin snorted: "Want to get something out of my mouth?" Dream. ”

So, Zhou Lin said how the interrogators wanted him to admit that he had brought counterfeit money to make purchases.

And how he himself shifted the blame to the bank.

"That's right! You can't admit it, and once you admit it, you can't get out. "Prison warning.

"When can I get out?" Zhou Lin asked.

"The general said that tomorrow there will be an apology issued by Pearl Bank, admitting that the responsibility for this incident lies with the bank, so that you can come out."

"Good! When you come out, I'll treat you to dinner! Zhou Lin said.

The prison guard smiled: "You think this is a pearl, please, I dare to eat it?" ”

"Damn, this world is really unbearable." Zhou Lin took out a hundred fiat currency and handed it to the prison guard: "Help me buy two packs of cigarettes, please drink more, but you will drink alone." ”

The prison guard smiled and said, "One hundred fiat, you can buy three sheep, enough for me to eat a big meal." ”

"How do you get in touch when you get out?" Zhou Lin asked.

"The wall of the place where you live has a 'medium' character written in lime, and the broken brick in the middle of the Chinese character can be used to press the note, and if there is a garden circle drawn next to the Chinese character, there is a secret letter. 乂字 indicates that the note has been removed. The prison guard said.

"What if I have a secret message for you?" Zhou Cun asked.

"Draw a square means that there is a secret letter to me, if the square becomes a Chinese character, it means that I have taken the secret letter."

Zhou Lin wrote it down and said with a smile: "Maybe it's not necessary, in case they expel me, then I won't have time to contact you." ”

The prison guard shook his head: "The head of the agency asked me to inform you that you must think of staying in Yan'an for more than ten days, because there is a mission." ”

Zhou Lin looked reluctant: "My mission has failed, and I have been exposed, and now I want to withdraw from it." ”

"It's not your task to buy supplies, it's just a cover-up, and your task is issued separately. When you get out, you'll get orders. ”

On December 27, Mingzhu's newspaper published an "apology".

In the "apology letter", it was admitted that the bank staff "sent the wrong currency" and sent 10 million counterfeit legal tender money to Mr. Lin Long as genuine currency, causing Mr. Lin Long to be arrested in Yan'an. All the responsibility lies with the bank, and the Yan'an side is requested to release Lin Long.

The newspaper of Mingzhu also published a joint petition from many Mingzhu businessmen, asking Yan'an to release Lin Long, who did not know the truth and was implicated by the bank.

Chongqing newspapers also published a joint petition from many Chongqing businessmen, asking Yan'an to release Lin Long, who was implicated by the bank.

Senior officials of the Chongqing government also made speeches, hoping that Yan'an would release Lin Long.

For a time, Yan'an was under a lot of pressure, so a press conference was held.

At the press conference, Yan'an showed a counterfeit of 100,000 legal currency, which was watched by many reporters.

"We admit that this is counterfeit money, but it is the bank's fault, and it has nothing to do with Mr. Lin Long, Mr. Lin Long is innocent." A Pearl reporter said.

"That's right! I don't know if it's a sin! A Chongqing reporter said.

Other reporters also expressed sympathy for Lin Long and hoped that Yan'an would release Lin Long.

At this time, a responsible person of the border district government came from outside the venue to announce the border government's opinion on the handling of this matter.

"In view of the fact that Lin Long unknowingly brought 10 million counterfeit fiat currency to buy materials in Yan'an, the border district government decided to study and decide: first, not to investigate Lin Long's responsibility for destroying Yan'an's economy; Second, the contract of this transaction is invalid, and the materials purchased with counterfeit money are returned to the original merchant; Third, the counterfeit money was burned by the government of the border region. Fourth, Lin Long was fined 1 million legal dollars for his negligent and illegal acts. Fifth, Lin Long was released but placed under residential surveillance, and after paying the fine, he was ordered to leave the country. ”

After the person in charge of the border area announced the decision to deal with it, Zhou Lin was brought up and released on the spot.

When the reporter asked Zhou Lin what he had to say, Zhou Lin said two points: "First, ask the reporter to tell the bank and ask them to bring one million real fiat currency to pay the fine." I can't go back if I don't pay the fine. Two, thank you to everyone who cares or helps me. ”

After speaking, Zhou Lin left the venue and went back to the rented courtyard with the support of Xiangjun and Bald Head and others, who rushed to hear the news.

Except for Xiangjun and Yulan, who knew the inside story, everyone else excitedly said that the young master was a good life, and this big thing was also avoided.

Everyone made a sumptuous table of whole sheep dishes and welcomed Zhou Lin back safely.

In the blink of an eye, 1940 passed, and 1941 quietly arrived.

However, at this time, a major incident occurred in China.

As early as October 19, 1940, Chiang ** issued a "Hao telegram", ordering the New Fourth Army south of the Yellow River to withdraw to the north of the Yellow River within one month, and at the same time secretly ordering hundreds of thousands of his troops to prepare to attack the New Fourth Army in Central China, thus setting off a second anti-communist upsurge.

While exposing Chiang's criminal conspiracy, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to withdraw the New Fourth Army in southern Anhui to the north of the Yangtze River in order to take into account the overall situation, and sent a telegram to Xiang Ying, secretary of the Southeast Bureau and the Military Branch, to take advantage of the fact that the Kuomintang army was not yet ready to be deployed, and quickly led its troops to move north to prevent a surprise attack.

On January 4, 1941, Xiang Ying led more than 9,000 people from the military headquarters and troops of the New Fourth Army to move north.

On the 6th, when entering the Maolin area of Jing County, Anhui Province, he was suddenly surrounded and attacked by more than 80,000 people from seven divisions of the Kuomintang army who had been ambushed in advance.

The vast number of commanders and fighters fought bloodily for seven days and nights, but in the end, due to the disparity in numbers, improper measures, and the exhaustion of ammunition and food, except for more than 2,000 people who broke out of the encirclement, one was captured, and most of them died heroically.

Army Commander Ye * was detained in negotiations with the other party, Director of the Political Department Yuan ** was killed, Deputy Army Commander Xiang * and Chief of Staff Zhou ** were killed by traitors during the breakout.

On the 17th, Jiang ** actually accused the New Fourth Army of "rebellion", announced the cancellation of its number, and claimed that Ye Ting would be handed over to military court for trial.

On January 17, 1941, after the Southern Anhui Incident, Zhou Weiren published an autographed inscription in Chongqing's "Xinhua Daily": "Strange injustices through the ages, a leaf in the south of the Yangtze River; in the same room, why do you need to fry each other?! ”

It expresses the anger and condemnation of the Chinese Communists and all righteous people for launching another anti-communist civil war by the Kuomintang diehards.

In response to Jiang **'s decision to cancel the number of the New Fourth Army, on January 20, 1941, the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China issued an order to rebuild the military headquarters of the New Fourth Army, appointing Chen * as the acting commander of the New Fourth Army, Zhang ** as the deputy commander, Liu ** as the political commissar, Lai ** as the chief of staff, and Deng ** as the director of the Political Department, and continued to lead the New Fourth Army to persist in the anti-Japanese struggle behind enemy lines in the north and south of the Yangtze River.
