Tang Cheng has always been very troubled in his heart. He still retains the memory of this later generation. He clearly knows the general plan of the Japanese army to attack China and the time when the war will break out, but he doesn't know whether he should tell others this. If you tell others about something that has not happened yet, you will most likely be regarded as a lunatic by others, but you may also become the target of someone who wants to control you. Tang Cheng didn't want to be a psychopath, nor did he want to be controlled by others, so he had been patient until now.
But Zhang Jianghe had told him today that the transfer order to Chongqing might come soon. Tang Cheng, who felt helpless, suddenly realized that he didn't have much time left for him. His family has been sent to Chongqing, and Zhou Hongzhuang and Zhang Jianghe will also go south to Chongqing with him in the near future. He will no longer have any relatives in Nanjing. For those compatriots who may be killed or injured in the flames of war and the slaughter of the Japanese army, Tangcheng can only say sorry silently in his heart, because even if Tangcheng spreads messages in the city at this moment that Nanjing will be affected by the war, I am afraid no one will I believe that after all, the war has not happened yet.
No matter what your reasons are for something that has not happened yet, those ordinary people who only care about daily necessities of life will never believe it, not to mention that many of them have been living here for many years. It’s hard to leave our homeland. To say it sounds good is because of nostalgia, but to say it sounds bad is because of our thinking. But Tang Cheng has nothing to do about this, so now he can only save one by one, and Xu Huanshan is one of them.
Tang Cheng could not say that this news came from his own memories of later generations. Hans' sudden appearance and sudden disappearance in Nanjing gave Tang Cheng the convenience of using the source of the information as an excuse. No matter how Xu Huanshan and the others searched and confirmed afterwards, they would only trace it to Hans at most, but Hans happened to be a member of the German intelligence agency. Xu Huanshan and the others who have traced this will only think that the information Tang Cheng revealed to Xu Huanshan came from Hans, a German intelligence officer, because Tang Cheng and this German are friends. And this can be proven by Zhou Hongzhuang, who was once a peripheral member of Shanghai’s underground party organization.
In order to create this opportunity, Tangcheng thought about it for a long time and took the initiative to take Zhou Hongzhuang in, not because of Zhou Hongzhuang's heroic face, but because Zhou Hongzhuang was once a peripheral member of Shanghai's underground party. Tangcheng took the initiative to take in and treat Zhou Hongzhuang with the idea of killing two birds with one stone. The first was to give Zhang Jiang and the lone goose a chance to get back in touch with the underground party. The second thing is what Tang Cheng has been thinking about, taking the initiative to expose Zhou Hongzhuang's flaw to Hans, so that he can completely establish a relationship with Hans.
Later, it was proved that Tang Cheng’s idea was correct. Hans, who did not trust Tang Cheng at first, after Tang Cheng took the initiative to reveal Zhou Hongzhuang’s identity, not only provided Zhou Hongzhuang with the identity of a peripheral member of the German intelligence agency in China. Proof, and also revealed Joseph's identity to Tangcheng. With Zhou Hongzhuang holding this handle in his hand, Hans, as a China expert, was not afraid that Tang Cheng would be detrimental to him. However, he did not know that this handle was given to him by Tang Cheng on his own initiative.
Tang Cheng had never really believed in Hans, especially after he learned that Hans was working for the German intelligence agency. Even though many people in this era had to do things against their will, Tang Cheng did not believe that a man who came to China to work Foreigners working in intelligence will become their true friends. Tang Cheng has always felt that there is a naked interest relationship between himself and Hans. Especially when the little Jewish girl Alice appeared in front of him, Tang Cheng felt that the interest relationship between himself and Hans seemed to be more stable. .
The sudden appearance of the little Jewish girl Alice seemed to Tang Cheng to be the opportunity he had been waiting for. Because of Alice's appearance, Tang Cheng no longer worried that Hans would betray him or use Zhou Hongzhuang's original identity to blackmail him. Because of Alice's appearance, Tang Cheng unexpectedly learned that Hans and Joseph were not truly loyal to the German Nazi government. After all this was repeatedly analyzed and deduced by Tang Cheng, it gave him the motivation to reveal certain sensitive contents to Xu Huanshan.
Something that would only happen a few months later was said to be reasonable by Tang Cheng. After separating from Tang Cheng, Xu Huanshan immediately contacted his superiors urgently and passed the news to the top of Nanjing's underground party organization through special channels. The Nanjing underground party who had chosen to stay dormant for the time being was also confused by this sudden news. After a simple discussion, many of them believed that the news was just nonsense. Nanjing was the capital of the country, even if the Nationalist government did not do enough. , those foreign powers with consulates in Nanjing will not sit back and watch something happen in Nanjing.
Tang Cheng, who revealed the news to Xu Huanshan, would naturally not know what happened next, because even if he knew the attitude of the Nanjing underground party organization, he would be powerless to interfere. Two days passed quickly. The wood shop that Tang Cheng found three days ago sent someone to deliver the goods. There were as many as a dozen jewelry boxes and bracelets made of red sandalwood, but Tang Cheng's favorites were those two. Wooden ornaments made of rosewood material play walnut.
"Uncle, this is a good thing. If you play with it often, you can not only practice your skills, but also prevent many diseases." After settling the balance with the man from the wood shop, Tang Cheng gave Zhang Jianghe a pair of red sandalwood walnuts. . Zhou Hongzhuang was not interested in any of this, but Tang Cheng forced her into a jewelry box and a red sandalwood bracelet. "Take it, this thing is yours! Keep it well, it will be worth some money in the future." Tang Cheng could not refuse, so Zhou Hongzhuang had no choice but to accept the jewelry box and bracelet.
Zhang Jianghe was a little annoyed with Tang Cheng for not doing his job properly, but after he played with the red sandalwood walnuts for a while, he gradually fell in love with them. Red sandalwood grows slowly and is almost a non-renewable resource. Tangcheng is tossing these things for the sake of the future. Seeing that Zhang Jianghe did not preach to him, Tang Cheng was like a wild horse that had lost its reins. In the next few days, he obtained a lot of rosewood wood through intermediaries.
"Virgin, according to your request, my people have been keeping an eye on that kid, but the kid's activities in the past few days are somewhat beyond our expectations." In the office of the director of the Intelligence Department building, Cao Wanchun handed over a book The record was placed on the desk. The director with a calm expression opened the record book, glanced at it briefly, and then threw the record book aside. When Cao Wanchun saw this, he said softly, "I don't know what kind of evil is possessed by that boy. He has been looking for people to collect red sandalwood everywhere in the past few days. Whether it is large materials or scraps, he wants it."
When Cao Wanchun spoke, he had been paying attention to the reaction of the director. Ever since Zhang Jianghe banged the table in the conference room that night, Tang Cheng had not been to the intelligence department compound again. The Virgo man in front of him asked him to arrange for someone to keep an eye on Tang Cheng. Cao Wanchun couldn't guess whether this errand was good or bad, so he could only tell his men to keep records when they were keeping an eye on Tang Cheng. But according to Cao Wanchun's experience, the surveillance of Tangcheng in the past two days was a failure, because there was nothing worth tracking in that kid.
He doesn't go out until the sun rises every day. Even when he goes out, he only drinks tea and chats with a few woodworking people, or wanders around the regular wood shops. The only thing Cao Wanchun cares about at the moment is that that boy collected so many red sandalwoods. What to do. "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 remain so calm." After thinking for a while, the answer given by the director was beyond Cao Wanchun's expectations.
But the director's order was like this. Cao Wanchun could only agree but not disobey. Moreover, he could see from the director's expression that the reason for following Tang Cheng was not to do anything to the boy. Maybe it was the director's intention towards the boy. a means of protection. Tang Cheng, who had been living very leisurely these days, didn't know that he was being watched. He had been busy collecting red sandalwood materials these days, and he looked very busy as he was busy in and out all day long.
Although Nanjing is the capital of the country and there are many dignitaries living here, there are only few people interested in selling red sandalwood materials. Tang Cheng spent the past two days trying very hard to find red sandalwood materials from many wood dealers, and even asked acquaintances in antique shops and pawn shops to help. In the end, he only acquired enough red sandalwood materials to make a few screens and some small ornaments. Zhou Hongzhuang and Zhang Jianghe no longer knew whether they should be happy or distressed after spending a lot of legal currency in exchange for the red sandalwood materials in front of them.
"Look at your short-sightedness!" Tang Cheng, the instigator, did not accept the accusations from Zhou Hongzhuang and Zhang Jianghe, but started to argue with them plausibly. "The depreciation of this legal currency is sky-high. Although the depreciation speed is not very fast at the moment, if it continues like this, this legal currency may not be valuable that day. The bank has long stopped the business of exchanging legal currency for gold and foreign currencies. If it were not done early If we spend these legal coins, do we still have to keep them in our hands waiting to become waste paper?"
Tang Cheng had a lot of legal currency in his hands, some of which he brought back from Shanghai, and some of which he snatched from Zhao Shanhai's safe that night. Although Zhang Jianghe didn't know how much legal currency Tang Cheng still had, the devaluation of legal currency was an indisputable fact. So when Tang Cheng said this, Zhang Jianghe couldn't think of how to refute Tang Cheng for a while. "Besides, didn't you want me to stay at home and not go out to cause trouble? Then it's okay for me to toss the wood at home, right?"
Tang Cheng's almost scoundrel-like sophistry left Zhang Jianghe speechless, but the look on Tang Cheng's face really deserved a beating. Angry and angry, Zhang Jianghe ignored it and directly asked Zhou Hongzhuang to help hold Tang Cheng down, and then rewarded him severely. He hit Tangcheng several times. Secretary Yao, who came to Zhang's house with an order, happened to catch this scene when he walked into Zhang's house. A family of three laughed and made the whole city laugh. Secretary Yao couldn't laugh or cry.
