After briefly explaining to Lin Na and others about gathering in Xiangjiang during the Spring Festival, Zhu Xuefeng and Liang Yan went to Xiangjiang first without explaining too much.
“Well, he is always busy, when will it be over?”
Seeing Zhu Xuefeng take Liang Yan away, Xia Yuhong sighed, going to Xiangjiang during the Spring Festival this year, he After spending a lot of time talking about his parents, he will set off to see his grandma tomorrow just to squeeze out time to spend time with him. Fortunately, he just ran away with Liang Yan as soon as he said it was urgent.
"Forget it, please be more understanding. You also know that he has so many things to do in all aspects. It would be nice if he could spend the Spring Festival with us. It doesn't matter if he leaves. During this period, I will spend time at home with my parents."
As for this, once I set foot on the Xiangjiang River, Yan Zi couldn’t hold it in any longer.
"Senior brother, can you tell me now where we are going."
"Go to the opposite side." Zhu Xuefeng wore sunglasses and spoke concisely, without a single extra word.
“You mean where to go?” Liang Yan’s ability to understand was still very strong, but it was a bit beyond her expectation.
"Well, don't ask anymore. I will make mistakes when I lead you. Don't let me keep making mistakes."
Seeing Tianxing crossing the Victoria Harbor and heading straight to the shallow beach, Liang Yan endured it with difficulty.
"Sir, the lady is back."
The housekeeper greeted attentively. Zhu Xuefeng handed over the bag and took off his coat. The housekeeper quickly took it.
"Inform Miss Wu and go home quickly. Only she will know about my return."
"Okay, sir."
The housekeeper hung up the bag and coat, asked the maid to make tea, and quickly went to notify Wu Qianqian.
“Why don’t you go find Chen Dong first? Didn’t you say they have someone over there?”
“He has someone over there, but the identity of those people is questionable, no. He is a good person, and he has everything to do with that place. If I look for Chen Dong, he might know that I am going there before he arrives. "
"You mean, His people?"
"Well, I don't believe them." Zhu Xuefeng agreed casually, but Liang Yan looked confused.
“If you don’t believe they are still using them, why don’t we clean them all up and replace them with a new group of people?”
"It's not that I don't believe Chen Dong, I don't believe his former subordinates. Why are they cleaning up? Although I don't believe these people, as long as they are still in Xiangjiang, there is no problem in using them. Don't talk about it. Don't ask questions in the future. It is easy to leak information. "
Zhu Xuefeng took a look around and found that it was okay. The old housekeeper was quite reliable, and even the tea maker was sent away.
"After this time, we will be a couple. We can only be called husband, not senior brother. As for why you must know, I won't explain it. We will have to apply for two sets of false identities tomorrow. Think of a name first, I’ll call it Li Huaide.”
“It’s so mysterious, it’s such a big deal, you don’t let anyone know, and you take advantage of me. I agreed, Si. "Auntie, I won't do it."
Liang Yan pouted, and Zhu Xuefeng smiled, "Yes, that's what you think. It's just for convenience. Let Qianqian take you to have your hair permed tomorrow." , be more mature, buy a few sets of suitable clothes, and dress more appropriately. Okay, I'll go to the study to think about the details. If you have anything to do, come up to me. You'd better go to your own room. Qianqian will call me when she comes back. "
…
Wu Qianqian always fulfills Zhu Xuefeng’s requirements without compromise. As long as Zhu Xuefeng doesn’t tell her, she doesn’t ask, and everything is ready the next day.
"Tomorrow's ship will depart in the morning without stopping. It will arrive at Jilong Port in 21 hours. It takes a long time. I have prepared some food for you, all in bags."
"This is a newly issued certificate. It is genuine. You are not afraid of inspection. These two are the certificates of Dongsheng Company and they are matching."
At this time, I am passing from Xiangjiang. I only need to hold Xiangjiang's certificate. There is no need to apply for future generations. The certificate is very simple.
Zhu Xuefeng took a look and found that, yes, Inspector Liang was very capable and it was done in half a day. He didn't know what position he had been promoted to now.
"Zhao Xiaoxia, this is your ID. Keep it, and don't forget your name."
"I got it, Boss Li."
One suit Liang Yan was not used to dressing up as a young woman, and Wu Qianqian patiently corrected some of her habits. Fortunately, Yanzi was very clever, and it was basically the same for most of the night. Zhu Xuefeng was not demanding, and he had no intention of showing off. Dongsheng Company's The certificate is just a back-up, if you can't use it, don't use it. You don't want to cause trouble to your company, but you still have to prepare it first, so as to be prepared.
“We are a newlywed couple. We will travel there before the Spring Festival to see the humanities and history there. By the way, we will learn about the market there and find a livelihood for us in the future.”
“Oh, I got it, Boss Li, haha.”
“It’s time to change your name when you get on the ship. If you can’t pronounce it, just call him Brother De. You can always do it.”
"That won't work. I've seen that bad guy Li Huaide. He always looks at Sister Qianqian with a leering look. You said you should choose a bad name, so you have to use his."
Zhu Xuefeng was also helpless, "I'm too lazy to think about it. Just use one, it will save trouble. Otherwise, you can call me Brother Tao. Come on, I'll call you Xiao Tao."
Liang Yan Then he nodded, "Then my name will be Yanzi, which is also a nickname."
Zhu Xuefeng reluctantly agreed, "It's all up to you. You're not allowed to call me senior brother. There are a lot of spies over there. Calling them like this will attract attention."
Liang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and finally figured out the title, "I know. The old Zhang family who played weasel in the Northeast divided their family into two, and half of them followed."
"It's good to know. These are the common tricks of the aristocratic family, hedging their bets, okay, today. That’s it, get some rest early, it’s not easy to ride the boat for more than 20 hours.”
During this period, there were no passenger ships between the two places in name, but in fact there were. The Hong Kong government didn’t want to offend the mainland, so many supplies were still available. Relying on supplements from the mainland, there is no nominal navigation, but in fact freighters and passenger ships have never been interrupted. Where can Dongsheng Company's motorcycles be sold, it is also operated in this way. In fact, the Hong Kong government knows that, and it is just pretending to be confused. Break.
“Tomorrow’s ship belongs to Chen Dong and the others, and there are a thousand of our motorcycles on board. Now our motorcycles are selling very well there, and they want to spend money to buy our production line. You can give us 20% of the bonus.”
“We’ll talk about this later. Let’s not think about it now. Is Zheng Dayong useful?”
“It’s very useful. He is silent, but he is silent. Very alert and very measured in doing things. Husband, where did you find them? Find a few more."
Zhu Xuefeng smiled and rubbed Wu Qianqian's head, "If you want to do something nice, let's just do this. You will be sent to Zheng Xun in a few months. He is just to help you deal with the trouble at hand. How is the trouble now? Is anyone still harassing you?"
"It's okay, Zheng Dayong just showed up. After one attack, no one will mess with me again, but what will I do if he leaves? Wu Qianqian, who has just gained a sense of security, is a little panicked.
“Don’t worry, we have almost the backup candidates, as I said last time. Da Ya's matter has to wait. I came here in a hurry and didn't have time to deal with it. I have to send her here after the new year. Then I can notify the autonomous region to start the "Stone Gambling Plan" to enrich my family. ”
Seeing that the two were chatting about business, Liang Yan went to rest early. Zhu Xuefeng chatted with Wu Qianqian late into the night about the development of Xiangjiang and the cooperation with Beibang.
Wu Qianqian woke up when the sun was three high. She looked at the time and felt a little anxious.
“It’s broken, sir, the ship will leave in less than an hour, and it’s all your fault.”
“It’s too late, I called Fourth, and the ship will be shipped half an hour later. , he is very sensible and said that he will personally handle the matter."
"By the way, I will make my own arrangements for the Spring Festival. It's hard to say whether your two sisters will come or not, and it's hard to say when I will come back. If I can't say, I won't come over to celebrate the New Year. "
Although Wu Qianqian didn't know what the master had planned and didn't ask, her eyes were full of concern and worry.
"Don't think too much, just take things as they come. Just do whatever you have to do. Let's go down and have breakfast. If it's too late, the swallows will laugh."
After breakfast, we rushed to the pier. It was okay. , everything went well, but it was only five minutes later than the normal departure time, just listening to the crew's shouts.
"The ship is sailing, the ship is sailing, the inspection is completed, everything is fine, and it is sailing."
The large passenger and cargo ship set sail slowly. There were not many people on board, so there were not many people on board. There are three hundred people, and a few people have beds. The vast majority of people are crowded into the warehouse and have to stay up for more than 20 hours. They are all smart people running for life. Of course, the more goods in the warehouse are all kinds of goods. The warehouse is full.
Because it is not a cruise ship, the cargo ship goes directly to its destination, heading all the way north to reach the chicken coop. The entire voyage is 780 kilometers, which is not too far, but it is very time-consuming.
The two of them looked out from the cabin on the third floor and saw the vast sea. Zhu Xuefeng kept looking east. Liang Yan was bored and came over to look at it for a long time. She couldn't see anything. "Brother Tao , what are you looking at?”
“Oh, that’s the Dsha Islands, I’m thinking about the ocean here.” “There’s nothing to see.”
< br>
"You are wrong. There are many small islands over there. Although they are not big, they are all our territory. I am thinking about how to turn the small islands into big islands."
Liang Yan was a little confused when she heard that the small island turned into a big island, and the senior brother joked again. Seeing that the senior brother was silent, she had to sit down boredly, opened her luggage bag, and passed the time with snacks.
The two of them fed the swarms of seagulls chasing the ship on the back deck for a while, which made the swallows very happy. It was the first time they had such an experience.
"Brother Tao, where do you think these seagulls will rest when they are tired from flying? There is no land in sight in this endless field."
"This is not far from the mainland. Although we can't see it, in fact It’s only a few dozen nautical miles. For seagulls, this distance is easy.”
“Is it only a few dozen nautical miles? Why can’t we see it on the ship?”
"It has to be said that you haven't read enough books. You haven't heard that the earth is round, and the sea surface actually has a curvature..."
Yanzi looked admiringly, "Brother Tao, you know so much, I won't You know, they say the sky is round and the earth is square. When I was a child, I always thought that the earth’s surface was like a chessboard, with square shapes.”
Some of the primary school students in later generations don’t know that. In the current years, they have been using night classes to learn literacy. , to solve the problem of literacy, this kind of science popularization really doesn’t take care of it.
"Let's go back to the cabin for a while."
The sun on the back deck was really bad, so the two hid back in the cabin. It took a long time to occasionally see a small island. You can also encounter fishing boats going out to sea for fishing, and the whole voyage is a bit boring.
“I’m sorry, this is not a big cruise ship to Fuso. It also has some entertainment projects and a tea bar. This is a mixed passenger and cargo ship, that’s all.”
“What’s the point? , it’s not like we haven’t endured hardships. We walked over mountains and ridges together for several days on both legs. It’s not much harder than this. We have food and drink here, so we don’t have to move. When we are tired, we can take a nap with the sea breeze blowing. I'm very satisfied."
Liang Yan smacked her eyes twice, leaned back, closed her eyes and rested.
Zhu Xuefeng knew that Liang Yan had an active temper, and being stuck on a boat for a day was more annoying than traveling through the mountains and forests. When he saw her resting with her eyes closed, he smiled and stopped disturbing her. He closed his eyes and thought about his fate this time. Task.
Looking at how late it is, wake up Yanzi, and the two of them will have a simple fight.
"Where are we?
The sunset shrouded the sea, and it was brilliant. "I don't know, I should have gone a third of the way, it's still very early. ”
The two of them held hands and went outside to watch the sunset. It was indeed beautiful. Zhu Xuefeng had the urge to get a yacht and live on the sea in the future. The weather was particularly good today, and the winter sunshine gave people a touch of warmth. , the two of them didn't feel cold at all, and chatted happily.
In the warehouse, a few of the people who had been sleeping began to move. They must be hungry and prepared to eat some dry food. It was getting dark. When he came down, Yanzi noticed that his senior brother suddenly stopped talking. He turned around and saw Zhu Xuefeng carefully looking at the crowd in the warehouse below.
"What did you find? "
After being asked by Yan Zi, Zhu Xuefeng withdrew his gaze and seemed a little unsure.
"I saw someone who seemed to be an acquaintance. He had changed a lot and was a little unsure. "
"Acquaintance? Came here? From the capital? "
"It should be so. Just wait, I'll find someone to ask. "
Liang Yan watched Zhu Xuefeng disappear at the corner of the corridor. After a while, he appeared in class A with the fourth child, pointing at the warehouse, very curious, and did not look for the fourth child the whole time. Unexpectedly, a strange acquaintance can actually make the senior brother take the initiative to find the fourth child. Who is this acquaintance?
"That's that woman, do you remember her?"
Zhu Xuefeng was asking from the warehouse, pointing at the chaotic passengers below.
“You are talking about her, I really know that she is from the north and worked in our bar last year. Because she didn’t want to leave with the customers, she got into trouble with the customers. My eldest brother remembered your teachings and finally came forward to help. She couldn't work in the bar anymore, so I asked her to come here to run a business. She has been taking our boat, making one or two trips a month, mainly to sell some fruits here. "
" Oh, what’s her name now?”
The fourth child understood Zhu Xuefeng’s confused words.
"It seems to be called He Lin, do you know her?"
Zhu Xuefeng has confirmed it, although it is very different from the photo image at that time.
"I am a friend of a friend, so be it. Take care of me when you have time, and don't let others bully you."
"Yes."
Zhu Xuefeng did not stay any longer, and talked to the old man Si said a few words and returned to the cabin on the third floor.
"Brother Tao, who is it?"
Zhu Xuefeng glared, and Liang Yan stuck out her tongue, "Brother Tao, who is it?"
"A friend of a friend didn't expect to run away It’s so amazing to be here.”
Seeing that Zhu Xuefeng didn’t want to say more, Liang Yan didn’t ask any more questions. She just lay at the window and looked down at the woman just now. She really couldn’t see anything special about her. .
"Don't pay attention to her, she is just an ordinary person. We happen to meet her. Let's not contact her to avoid unnecessary complications."
Yanzi is still very sensible. When his senior brother explained it like this, he looked away. , returned to the small bed, and fell asleep again
In the middle of the night, the freighter arrived at Baoxiong Port in the south, unloaded a small part of the cargo and passengers, and continued north. When the sky was slightly bright, it successfully arrived at Jilong Port. .
Zhu Xuefeng has been observing the situation along the coast and is a little disappointed. It may be the result of the confrontation and friction in the past few months. The coastline in the west is extremely well-defended, and there are steel wire mesh on the beach, trying to get into the sea and land. , it’s really difficult.
There are always warships cruising on the sea, and the coastline is constantly strafed by searchlights. It seemed that the plan was difficult. Zhu Xuefeng frowned and felt helpless.
Seeing that we are docking at Jilong Port, it is quite peaceful here. To the north of Jilong Port, there is no such tense situation. Above is the East China Sea, which is the sea area where the three forces are intertwined. It seemed calmer than the strait. Zhu Xuefeng knew that if he continued a little further north and east, he would reach Diaoyu Island, 170 kilometers away.
We landed smoothly, and the sky gradually dawned. The area around the port was very lively, with crowds of vendors loading and unloading goods. There were shops along the streets, and a large number of fruits and agricultural products were gathered near the port.
Liang Yan held Zhu Xuefeng's arm with a sweet look. Her eyes wandered around various fruit stalls. Although she had been in Xiangjiang for a while, she still didn't recognize many of them.
At this time, Baodao's industry was also very weak, mainly agriculture, with some light industry. As for the rapid development of the electronics industry, it would take some time.
"Sir, would you like to see the fruit? These are the oranges we just brought from Hsinchu. Look, they look so good. You can try them all. It's free of charge..."
Maybe Zhu Xuefeng was dressed as a businessman, or maybe he saw Liang Yan looking at the fruit stall with interest, and the vendor immediately stepped forward to recruit her.
"Sorry, we just got off the boat, we have to find a place to stay first."
"Oh, there are several hotels on Suzhou Road in front of you. You are from Xiangjiang, guests from Xiangjiang. Everyone likes to live there, it’s cheap, clean, close to the port, and convenient for shopping...”
The vendor was very enthusiastic and seemed to want to leave a good impression. Zhu Xuefeng smiled and thanked him.
"Thank you, we will come back to your place after we have settled in."
The two of them found a hotel with better conditions, and the accommodation registration was also very simple. All documents can be processed.
"What should we do next?"
Putting down the luggage and bags, Liang Yan sat down on the bed. She was not tired after more than 20 hours of sailing, but she was so suffocated that she felt down to earth at last. good.
“The next step is of course to have breakfast. Didn’t I just say that Hangzhou Road is full of delicious food? It’s not far from here. Let’s fill our stomachs first, drink hot soup, and then come back to rest.”< br>
"Oh." Liang Yan didn't ask any more. She simply packed up and went out. The climate on the island in January was quite comfortable. The narrow streets were lined with stores on both sides, and the vendors who got up early were all busy. It has already started business, probably because it is not far from the port. The streets are already lively in the early morning, and scooters make a brisk roar from time to time. Dongsheng Company's motorcycles are indeed very popular here.
