"District Chief Meng, it's too dangerous. You must not take the risk yourself."
Li Zhifeng said with a straight face: "In the Japanese-controlled area, we have no way to protect you. If you insist on going, I must report the matter to Assistant Wu."
"Yes, District Chief Meng, you can't go."
Qi Xuezhen also said.
"You all have brain problems?" Meng Shaoyuan stared at these two people with wide eyes: "Who said I was going to take risks? You are worried about my death. Am I not afraid of death myself?"
Li Zhifeng and Qi Xuezhen looked at each other.
Are all the worries about relationships in vain?
The problem is, District Chief Meng just agreed and helped Zheng Baiyu find a way to get back those cultural relics.
Moreover, Zheng Baiyu also made a commitment. Once these cultural relics were recovered without damage, he would entrust "Sir Zhu" to bring them all back to Chongqing and hand them over to the National Government for safekeeping.
After all, wars are going on everywhere, and Zheng Baiyu is just a businessman, so there is no way to properly protect these cultural relics.
From this point of view, Zheng Baiyu is indeed a patriotic businessman.
However, "Sir Zhu" Meng Shaoyuan is of course a patriot, but can he do something that is not beneficial?
How could he not be tempted by so many orphaned treasures?
"It's too difficult."
Qi Xuezhen thought for a while: "Unless you, District Chief Meng, can take action personally, there is no way to get it out. Just find a way to blow up the place and destroy both the jade and the stone without letting the Japanese discover it."
"Are you sick?"
Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "The antiques of the prosperous times and the gold of the troubled times were destroyed like this? Although I don't know what they are, but what I can be sure of is that when the war is over and there is peace, there will definitely be something in it. Things can be sold for sky-high prices!”
Qi Xuezhen looked at the teacher. It seemed that the teacher already had a solution in mind?
…
"Gracie, are you still used to living here?"
Gracie, who was arranged in the Rose Garden, stood up hurriedly when she saw Meng Shao's original appearance: "Master, thank you for your kindness. The conditions here are very good and I am very used to living there. That Butler Qiu, also Western food was specially prepared for me.”
Meng Shaoyuan was not used to others calling him "master".
This sounds awkward, right?
But he never corrected Gracie. He had to establish a strong and unbreakable relationship of superiority and inferiority between himself and Gracie in order to better control this woman.
Gracie is too dangerous, and no one knows this better than Meng Shaoyuan.
Under her weak and inferior appearance, she possesses a strong mind, and when she killed her husband with her own hands, her inner demons were broken, and her heart also became extremely strong.
If not controlled properly, she will become a bomb capable of destroying everything!
"Master." Gracie asked timidly, "Are my children okay?"
"They are very good and are well taken care of. After they are nursed back to health, I will send them to a missionary school. Don't worry, I treat them like my own daughters."
Meng Shaoyuan said calmly.
"Thank you, Master."
Meng Shaoyuan asked back: "Don't you ask me why I don't let you accompany your daughter?"
"Because they are hostages." Gracie said without any concealment: "The master needs me, but you don't know me very well yet, so my children have become hostages. I have to work hard for you to get Your trust.”
Meng Shaoyuan tilted his head and looked at her: "You don't resent me?"
"No, I don't dare."
Gracie seemed frightened: "How dare I complain to you? You saved the children, you saved me. I know that the children will get a good education, which I never dared to dream of giving them before." A luxurious life. I don’t want them to be like me in the future, not to mention, I can see them once a week.”
"Don't worry, in the end, you and your children will live happily together."
Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Now, I have encountered a troublesome thing and I need someone to help me."
"You can talk to me, Master."
"There is a group of things, cultural relics, very precious, just like Picasso's Mona Lisa's smile and Van Gogh's sunflowers." Meng Shaoyuan said his true purpose:
"I need to get them. They are hidden in areas controlled by the Japanese, but the Japanese don't know they exist. The trouble is, I have no way to go out and get them back in person."
Gracie almost had no time to think: "Please tell me where they are and I will get them back for you."
"The place where these things are hidden is next to the Japanese military police headquarters, and the place itself has been transformed into a Japanese warehouse and interrogation room. There is no way to enter."
"There will be a way."
"Once you fall into the hands of the Japanese, there is nothing I can do to save you."
"No, I'm going to get things, not to be a resistance group."
"Are you sure?"
"Be sure, it's easy."
Meng Shaoyuan almost spat out.
this is very simple?
Even if you let yourself take action personally, it will take a lot of effort.
"You can go get it in person, but your difficulty is that you are a Chinese, manage a large organization, and are too famous." Gracie said calmly:
"And what about me? No one knows who I am. I am a foreigner, a woman without any threat, and I look so ugly, but these are my advantages."
It makes sense.
Being famous has become a burden to oneself.
Meng Shaoyuan stared at her: "I can provide you with whatever you need."
"I need money, a lot of money." Gracie made her first request.
"I'll give you whatever you want."
"I want luxurious clothes and expensive cars, which must be equipped with well-trained drivers."
"I'll get it ready for you."
"I also need a group of people, a group of smart and smart people, and the necessary equipment."
"more specific?"
"These people don't need to be very agile, they just need to be able to make people believe in their identity."
Meng Shaoyuan laughed when he heard this: "It just so happens that I have such a group of people."
"That's great. I also need a butler, one who can take care of my daily life and is familiar with all etiquette and banquets."
"this……"
"Master, let me help you think about it. Butler Qiu meets my requirements very well."
Meng Shaoyuan was dumbfounded.
Butler Qiu?
You let him act as an agent to carry out missions?
I don't know how he can complain.
"I will go and talk to Butler Qiu." Meng Shaoyuan felt that this was all he could do: "Is there anything else?"
"there is none left."
"How long do you need?"
"At most a month, maybe less, I can help you get what you want back."
Meng Shaoyuan looked stern: "You can destroy these things when necessary, but you must never let them fall into the hands of the Japanese."
"no, I can not."
Gracie said calmly: "I will bring these things back completely."
