Chapter 797
Ji Menghan sat there, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache. What should Guo Bao do if she messes things up? This was just the beginning, and she was already feeling the pressure.
Guo Bao is not her real subordinate, his status is equivalent to Wang Wenwu's spokesperson, so Ji Menghan can't order him directly. But if Wang Wenwu is called because of this incident, it will seem that she is not qualified for this job. However, if she didn't say anything about it, she wouldn't be able to explain it to her superiors.
Just when Ji Menghan was troubled here, the sound of opening the door came from the door. She looked up in confusion, wondering who would have the key to the house. However, when she saw the person who entered the door, she realized that it was Guo Bao.
Guo Bao's dress was different from when he left, and he covered his mouth and nose with a large scarf, so that he could not see his face clearly. His clothes were also more ordinary than before. In his hand he was holding a large bag of dim sum wrapped in oiled paper, which, judging by the imprints on the oiled paper, had been purchased from a long-established dim sum shop.
Seeing Guo Bao come back, Ji Menghan didn't immediately ask about the progress of the mission, but asked, "Why did you buy dim sum and come back?" It's not easy to buy dim sum now, isn't that shop closed yet?"
Guo Bao shook his head and replied, "Not yet, the craftsmanship of this dim sum shop is very good, not only we like it, but also those dignitaries and nobles like it, how could they let the store close?"
Of course, Ji Menghan knew the popularity of this dim sum shop, and if it weren't for the regular customers, she might not even be able to buy a copy.
She smiled and said to Guo Bao, "In this way, it should be difficult to buy dim sum, right? It's not easy for you to buy it!"
Guo Bao also noticed the dim sum on Ji Menghan's table at this time, and he said, "If Aunt Ji likes it, I can tell the master and ask him to find a place and ask the master of the dim sum shop to come over and make some."
Before Ji Menghan could answer, Ji Jiacan, who was originally resting in the room, heard the movement outside and walked out. He saw Guo Bao holding a bag of dim sum and talking to Ji Menghan about the dim sum he bought from the dim sum shop, and an inexplicable anger rose in his heart.
Although Ji Jiacan has been fighting on the front line before, he has served as a guard after that, following the leader. The people and things he encountered made him more and more disgusted with Guo Bao.
For Ji Menghan, Ji Jiacan's mood is very complicated. On the one hand, Ji Menghan's care and teaching to him in the past half a year made him understand that Ji Menghan was not what he originally thought. However, since Ji Menghan's husband Wang Wenwu appeared, in the face of Guo Bao sent by Wang Wenwu, Ji Menghan's casual attitude and disunity towards comrades in dealing with tasks made Ji Jiacan difficult to accept. Not only did she not criticize Guo Bao, but even interceded for him, which made the dissatisfaction in Ji Jiacan's heart intensify.
Now, seeing Ji Menghan and Guo Bao leisurely talking about dim sum, the anger in Ji Jiacan's heart can no longer be suppressed.
As soon as Ji Jiacan opened his mouth, he said in a sarcastic tone, "Master Leopard, didn't you swear that you would definitely be able to complete the task within three days? I thought you wouldn't show up until the third day, but I didn't expect to see you today. Looks like the mission is done, right?
Oh? How does it look like a bag of snacks in your hand? You don't want to tell me that this snack is the goal of our mission, do you?"
Ji Menghan looked at Ji Jiacan's attitude towards Guo Bao's yin and yang weirdness, and felt a little headache. Ji Jiacan was quite calm before, but why didn't he get along with Guo Bao? Could it be that the two of them are in harmony with each other?
Ji Menghan didn't wait for Ji Jiacan to say more sarcastic words, and hurriedly picked up the snack beside him and stuffed it into his mouth. She quickly interrupted the topic and said, "Okay, okay, you have been in Beiping City for so long, you must have never eaten this kind of dim sum, right? Quick, taste it."
Ji Menghan tried to use food to relieve the tense atmosphere in the room, but the contradictions and differences between Ji Jiacan and Guo Bao were obviously not so easy to solve.
Ji Jiacan also saw that Ji Menghan stuffed the dim sum into his mouth. If it were someone else. Ji Jiacan not only spit out the dim sum, but also maybe hit someone!
Guo Bao also came from Ji Jiacan's age, and people with a temperament like Ji Jiacan have not been in contact with him. If such people have real talents, coupled with superiors who can know how to make good use of others, they are often able to show their talents
。 However, if they meet a narrow-minded superior, it will be difficult.
Guo Bao has been following Wang Wenwu, and he has reached the highest position under Wang Wenwu. He understands the predicament Ji Menghan is facing now, and he also knows that as long as he makes some small changes, it is possible to solve the problem.
However, Guo Bao could not do this, because the root of the problem did not lie with him, but with Wang Wenwu. As long as Wang Wenwu doesn't let go, Guo Bao can only serve as a bridge of communication between Ji Menghan and Wang Wenwu. This bridge can only do things, not express its own opinions.
Seeing Ji Jiacan's indignant look, Guo Bao put down the snack bag in his hand and said, "Aunt Ji, as the little brother said, the task has been completed, and everything is here. The original document with that badge was too large, so I packed it in this bag to avoid being noticeable. If you really want to try the dim sum from this shop, we have a way to do it."
Hearing Guo Bao's words, Ji Menghan and Ji Jiacan both stopped moving. Ji Menghan's words that were originally going to play a round game came to his mouth and swallowed it back. She hurriedly took the snack bag from Guo Bao's hand and couldn't wait to open it.
Ji Jiacan didn't expect that he would be a prophecy, and the snack bag really contained the target document. Although he still had doubts in his heart, seeing Guo Bao's calm and breezy appearance, he still quietly moved to Ji Menghan's side and checked the documents with her.
Although Ji Jiacan didn't know many words, he still recognized the three words "Zhangjiakou". The word "Zhangjiakou" appears several times in the document.
Ji Menghan looked at the document in his hand, the badge on the document was not a picture, nor a copy, but just like the original. She said happily, "That's great!"
Seeing Ji Menghan's excited appearance, the doubts in Ji Jiacan's heart completely dissipated. He originally thought that it would be an exaggeration to complete the task in three days, but he didn't expect to get the documents the next day.
Ji Jiacan recalled his cynicism at Guo Bao just now, and wanted to apologize to him, but he didn't know how to speak.
Ji Menghan didn't have time to pay attention to Ji Jiacan now, she looked at Guo Bao and asked, "Master Leopard, why do I feel like an original document?"
When Guo Bao heard this, he was stunned for a moment and replied, "I don't know much about this. But we need to confirm that this document is true or false, and if it is, we will think of other ways."
When Ji Jiacan heard Guo Bao's words, he felt a little strange, and he said, "Wait, what's going on? You got the document, and you don't even know if it's real or fake? Where did you get that?"
Ji Menghan also turned to Guo Bao, could it be that he was happy too early? Although the paper style of the document is very realistic, would anyone forge such a document?
Guo Bao looked at Ji Menghan and Ji Jiacan's surprised expressions, looking like they were rare and strange. He said, "Where did you get it? Of course I bought it! Although Zhangjiakou is not as good as Beiping City, it also cost a lot of money to buy this document! Aunt Ji, if you think the documents are fake, I can go to the seller to settle the account. They even fool people with fake things."
Guo Bao's answer shocked Ji Menghan and Ji Jiacan, and their heads were clouded. They didn't expect the document to be bought.
Ji Menghan asked again in disbelief, "Are you saying that such an important document was actually bought from someone else?"
Guo Bao nodded without hesitation and replied, "Yes, they were all bought from people. Otherwise, how could we get the documents so quickly in three days? By the way, Aunt Ji, hurry up and see if this document is true or fake!"
Guo Bao was stared at by Ji Menghan and Ji Jiacan, and his heart was a little empty. In fact, the document he bought back was not purchased from an experienced intelligence officer, but from a person who clearly showed that he had done such a thing for the first time.
During the transaction, Guo Bao wrapped himself tightly, but the other party was not a professional intelligence officer at all, and Guo Bao's subordinates easily followed him back home. In just one night, Guo Bao had already figured out who the person he was trading with was.
If Guo Bao hadn't immediately made a deal with the other party because he saw him just come out of the North China Suppression Headquarters, he might not have handed over the money to the other party so simply.
Guo Bao was in his heart
Calculated, if the documents were fake, he would waste a lot of time trying to get the money back. He shouldn't have bought the documents from that person in the first place to save a little difference.
However, when facing Ji Menghan, Guo Bao would not say this. He had already considered in advance that the documents he had purchased might be problematic, and might even be a trap set by the military command.
Guo Bao got the information in the morning, and now it is close to the afternoon. He had confirmed it many times that he was not being followed. Therefore, the possibility of a trap set by the military commander can be ruled out.
Now there is only one possibility, that is, the person thinks that he can't find him, can't do anything to him, so he just took a few pieces of paper to fool himself.
Guo Bao calmly replied, "Aunt Ji, you know that it is not easy to obtain information. This document may have changed hands many times before reaching us, so there may be some errors. But I don't know if you have any other sources of intelligence in Shaanxi besides our group? We can combine information from other sources to verify it to ensure its accuracy."
Although Guo Bao said that there would be some errors in the documents in his hand. But Ji Jiacan still felt that such an important document could be bought outside, which must be fake. If this matter is reported, it will be really embarrassing and embarrassing.
And it's the opposite of what Ji Jiacan thought. Ji Menghan knew that because of the war, the southern government's finances were tight. Those who are in high positions of authority naturally do not have an impact. But those who can only get dead wages at the bottom, and don't have much gray income, are different.
As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water. Those who can drink the blood of soldiers drink it, and those who can buy things buy things. But there are still some small staff officers who have no soldiers and no power in their hands, and those are the only things they can buy.
It's just that Ji Menghan thought it would be something in the photocopy, but what he had in his hand was the original! Has the government of the South rotted to such an extent within itself!
Ji Jiacan said, "You weren't deceived! We want important documents. No, you can buy it from any person on the side of the road!"
Ji Jiacan didn't know that Guo Bao was really a random person on the side of the road, he just said it casually. However, he was right.
Guo Bao was taken aback at first, he looked at Ji Jiacan's expression, and didn't seem to have discovered his secret. But Ji Jiacan's tone lacked the friendliness he had before, and he said, "This is buying and selling information, not going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. Whether the intelligence market is true or false, it's up to you to tell the difference."
Ji Jiacan is not very literate and cannot confirm the authenticity of the documents. He just instinctively thought that such an important document should be kept properly by the southern government and would not be sold on the street at will.
Ji Menghan carefully checked the documents page by page, these documents were all real and original.
Ji Menghan interrupted Ji Jiacan's questioning of Guo Bao and said to him, "Okay, don't say it. I've seen the documents, and they're all true."
Ji Jiacan looked at Ji Menghan in surprise and asked, "Really? You say it's all true? Are you sure? It's no joke!"
Ji Menghan replied, "Of course I know it's not a joke. However, Jiacan, if this document is really purchased from someone else, then you should quickly send this document to your superiors and see if you can confirm the accuracy of this document through other channels."
Ji Jiacan nodded and agreed. Knowing the gravity of the matter, he immediately set about sending the documents to his superiors. Guo Bao breathed a sigh of relief.
Guo Bao watched Ji Jiacan and wanted to wrap the oil paper he brought again. said to Ji Jiacan, "Things can be done, don't be in such a hurry. You can think about it beforehand. Your superior, is it appropriate for you to bring such a valuable snack? Let's not talk about this dim sum, there are not many people who can get it in Beiping City now. If the place where your superiors are hiding is not so rich, I suggest you change your clothes!"
Ji Menghan saw that Ji Jiacan was also going to use the wrapping of the dim sum oil paper brought by Guo Bao. was originally going to speak, but Guo Bao opened his mouth in front of him.
Ji Menghan was afraid that Ji Jiacan would think too much, so he didn't say anything, but took a bag out again. It is the bag that ordinary merchants put bulk goods on their customers. Going to the superiors is not obtrusive at all.
Ji Jiacan was Guo Bao this
As soon as I said it, I also reacted. saw the bag handed over by Ji Menghan. Quickly changed the file to a new package. When he bowed his head and passed by Guo Bao's side, he whispered thank you!
Guo Bao now feels that he is still very young, and he can still hear it when he was so quiet just now.
