"From now on, your group can receive a special fund from me every month..." Zuo Tengying said.
"Yes, I understand."
Coming out of No. 3 Yiyuan Road, Zhou Sen was thinking heavily. It was obvious that Zuo Tengying had given him a very difficult task.
I have a feeling that what he wants to do must be closely related to next year's "Guan Special Performance". Of course, the plan for "Guan Special Performance" has not been finalized yet.
This is Zhou Sen's intuition.
There are people within the Kwantung Army who have always been preparing to attack Soviet Russia, and "wave" operations over the Far East are a common occurrence. (The "wave" operation is aviation reconnaissance)
Including his cheap teacher Saburo Shibuya, he was also a staunch supporter of fighting against Su, otherwise he would not have taken him so seriously.
These people all want to expand their territory, make achievements, and leave a name in history.
…
"Old Liang, I want to see Arman. Please make arrangements as soon as possible." Zhou Sen went directly from No. 3 Yiyuan Road to the kitchen of "Shiweitian" and called Liang Yiming to him.
"Are you in a hurry?"
"I'm not in a hurry, but I'd better do it as soon as possible. I have some things that I have to tell him in person." Zhou Sen said.

"Okay, let me report. Originally, your liaison work with the other side was 'Pine Needles', but now it has become my job." Liang Yiming said.
"You, the one who can do the hard work, she is indeed not as secretive as you." Zhou Sen chuckled.
Liang Yiming nodded. Zhou Sen was telling the truth. Jiang Rou's side was indeed not as convenient and secretive as him.
Most people would not think of his relationship with Zhou Sen.
Jiang Rou is Zhou Sen's adopted sister, and it is easy to associate her relationship with her. Once exposed, both of them will be suspected.
After a quick meal, Zhou Sen drove to Mr. Hong's residence.
After taking Dr. Liu's medicine, Mr. Hong's condition has indeed improved a lot, but he has reached the point where his life is exhausted and the time he can delay is limited.
Zhou Sen asked about it, and Doctor Liu said that it would only take half a month at most, and he couldn't guarantee it for more than that.
It depends on fate.
It seems that Hong Lianghui and Mr. Hong must meet for the last time as soon as possible. The old man will definitely not be able to go out, and he can only let Hong Lianghui come back.

Shuidao Street·Old Fengtian Tailor Shop.
Anna came over alone in a carriage, got off the car, paid for the parking space, and walked directly into the store. The boy Xiangzi was wiping the counter when he saw Anna coming in and hurriedly greeted her from inside.
"Miss Martha, you are here."
"Where's Master Zheng?" Anna smiled slightly and asked in a measured Chinese accent.
"Can you speak Chinese?"
"I know a little bit, I just learned it." Anna responded with a shy smile.
"Miss Martha, please." Xiangzi invited Anna inside. Zheng Han was sitting in front of the sewing machine, stepping on the thread.
Seeing Anna coming in, she raised her head and said, "Miss Martha, wait a moment."
In fact, Anna had already seen the cheongsam she had customized. She motioned to her clerk Xiangzi to help her take off the cheongsam.
"Miss Martha, there is a fitting room here. Come with me." Xiangzi led Anna into a fitting room inside.
About seven or eight minutes later, Anna walked in wearing a cheongsam.
European and American women have relatively large frames. If they are cut according to the frame size, they will feel loose when worn on the body.
Cheongsam is best suited for women who are close-fitting and have some body, but not too much. It is not suitable for people who are too thin or too fat, one is too loose or the other is too bloated.
Fortunately, although Anna is white, her frame is not too big. Apart from being taller than Asian women, her body shape is quite good.
"Well, the waist is a little too big by about half an inch. It can be modified..." Zheng Nan left a margin when doing it. If the clothes are too big, they can be easily modified, but if they are small, it is difficult to modify them.
"Miss Martha, how do you feel about your shoulder movement?"
"It's okay, not bad." Anna moved her shoulders, and she didn't feel any pulling or looseness.
"You can do a little repair and put the buttons on the plate, and it will be finished." Zheng Nan said, "Come back and pick it up in three days. I will send someone to deliver the latter to your home?"
"We'll see when the time comes. I'll pick it up when I have time. If I don't have time, I'll ask you to send it to me." Anna nodded, "You also make good suits here. I'll ask my husband to come over and make one next time." Suit, he is a businessman and needs something decent when going out.
"Miss Martha, do you speak Chinese so well?"
"Haha, I actually know a little Chinese, but I don't speak it very well, so I can only hide my clumsiness. But in Bingcheng, if you don't speak Chinese, you can't do many things, so I can only keep speaking. ." Anna explained with a slight smile.
"Oh, your language talent is great." Zheng Nan gave a thumbs up.
"Thank you." Anna thanked politely.
…
"How's it going? How do you feel about the second meeting?" Anna returned to the police station, and Zhou Sen was almost back.
"The workmanship is good and it's worth the price."
"I'm asking you what's your impression of Zheng Nan?" Zhou Sen asked angrily.
"Professional, calm, very approachable, a very good person." Anna closed her eyes and thought for a while and said.
"You don't see any flaws in him?" Zhou Sen frowned and asked.
"There are no flaws yet, but we can focus on observing this person." Anna said.
"Where's the manpower?"
"Manpower is indeed a problem, but let's apply. Don't you have a quota?" Anna said.
"If this Zheng Nan is really a hidden lurking member of the military command, then ordinary people are of no use to him. We have to find people who have received special training."
"Do you want to go to Yifanpo?" Anna immediately saw what Zhou Sen was thinking.
"Um?"
Zhou Sen nodded: "I just took over a mission. Chief Sato assigned it personally. There is also a special budget, so from now on, we can recruit troops."
"Okay, what's the mission?"
"Collect all military-related intelligence information in the Soviet Far East, including military mobilization, personnel changes, weapons and equipment, logistics support, etc. All military-related intelligence is collected. In addition, there is also intelligence Analytical work.”
"Isn't this the job of the Ice Special Agent? Why was it transferred to us?" Anna asked strangely.
"I don't know either, but that's what Chief Zuotou said. It should be that the work of the Ice Special Agent will be adjusted." Zhou Sen nodded. There were some things that he couldn't ask more about.
"Does Shibuya-sensei know?"
"I don't know, but the higher-ups made this decision and should communicate with Teacher Shibuya, but we still have to report it and listen to Teacher Shibuya's instructions." Zhou Sen said.
"I'll send a telegram to ask for instructions when I get back tonight."
…
"You want to take three days off?"
"Yes, Section Chief Akiyama, Chief Sato asked me to talk yesterday and gave me a task, so I came here to ask for leave from you."
"Is three days enough?"
"That should be enough." Zhou Sen thought for a moment. It only takes less than two days to go back and forth from here to the slope. One day is enough to select people.
What's more, he had already said hello to the Intelligence Department and Yi Yianpo.
"Are you going with Anna?"
"Yes." Zhou Sen wanted to go alone, but when he thought that it might not be objective to choose someone by himself, it would be better to go together.
"Okay, I'll grant you a five-day holiday, so you have more time." Akiyama Nosuke didn't ask any more questions. Zhou Sen didn't say anything, which meant that Sato Hide had issued the ban. Otherwise, he should have known. .
The Intelligence Department specially assigned secret tasks to Zhou Sen. It is obvious that the Intelligence Department has great trust and attention to Zhou Sen.
…
"Why did you suddenly go on a business trip?" After returning home, Zhou Sen packed his luggage. In fact, he didn't have much, just a few changes of clothes and toiletries, and a small rattan box was enough.
But Zhou Sen went on a business trip while Bai Yulan was in confinement, which surprised everyone, including Bai Yulan herself.
"It's only three days, and the business trip is not far away, just in Zhuhe County in the east." Zhou Sen explained.
"Oh, is that just you?"
"And Anna, she's on a business trip with me. We'll take the early morning train tomorrow." Zhou Sen could have taken the evening train, but after thinking about it, it was better to leave in the morning.
"Since it's business, you should leave early and come back early, and pay attention to safety on the road." Bai Yulan also knew that Zhou Sen had no control over his work.
"I have already told Qin Lang about the Full Moon Wine, and we will leave it to the 'Food is the Heaven' event. It is estimated that there will be many people coming by then. There are mainly colleagues here, so I will prepare the invitation list. You are mainly friends from the shopping mall, so let's estimate the number of people first." Zhou Sen nodded, and he had to get ready for this.
"There are quite a few people there. You said that if I don't open a bar, we won't be able to get married. If we don't do it this time, there will be a lot of gossip. People should say that we are too stingy, so let's make it simpler. ." Bai Yulan nodded. If he were an ordinary person, he wouldn't worry about it. Even if he held a banquet, he wouldn't be able to invite many tables.
She is a famous person and a rich person. If she really manages it, the guests will definitely be indispensable.
“How many tables can we set if food is enough?”
"Eighty tables is not a big problem, but exceeding it is not."
"That means we have to limit the number of guests to eighty tables. Let's do the math." Bai Yulan said, "I want Uncle Chang to come back soon. There is always someone to take care of so many things."
"Okay, if he is not here, it will arouse some people's suspicion." Zhou Sen nodded.
"The dishes and drinks have to be decided first, and everything that should be bought and can be bought has been bought first." Bai Yulan said, "I guess 'Food is the Sky' will have to buy some food storage equipment."
"You don't have to worry about this. Let Qin Lang and Xiaorou take care of it. Anyway, the new stage is being renovated now. She only needs to visit the scene for a while. The rest of the time is relatively generous." Zhou Sen said, "I will also have the manpower for the evening. Let Shuangqinghui arrange for people to be trained intensively before they take up their posts, so as not to cause chaos when they are busy."
"As for the chefs, we can borrow some from Sen. That should be enough."
"Well, it's almost time. I have to feed the baby." Bai Yulan glanced at the time and pushed Zhou Sen out of the room.
"I have to take a look at the child before going to bed. I haven't been able to see the child for three days in a row..." Zhou Sen said.
"Go, go, you can watch it tomorrow morning too."
Zhou Sen had to catch the morning train and got up early. After seeing the two little guys, he went to see Bai Yulan.
Finding that Bai Yulan was still asleep, he couldn't bear to wake her up, so he told Axiang and went to the train station with Wu En.
Learning from the past, Zhou Sen naturally had to take Wu En with him to prevent some people from having evil intentions on the way.
However, Wu En was not qualified to go to the Yippo Special Training Base. He could only wait for him in the town and then come back together.
You spend money on business trips from the Japanese. If you don’t spend it, they won’t give it to you. But when traveling during the day, there is no need to buy a sleeper car, soft seats are enough.
The soft seats are comfortable and spacious, and most importantly, you can enjoy high-quality service from the flight attendants.
After getting on the bus and finding his seat, Zhou Sen closed his eyes and fell asleep. It wasn't that he didn't sleep well at night, but that the journey would be very hard. He should seize the time to rest, lest he would not be able to find a chance to rest when he wanted to.
Wu En's ticket was with Zhou Sen, which made Anna unable to find any chance. She could only watch the opportunity slip away from her eyes in frustration.
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye.
After arriving at the station, I got off the bus and looked for a place to eat. Someone originally came to pick me up, but Zhou Sen refused.
It's not the first time for him and Anna to come here. There's no need to mobilize a large force. Nothing will happen if they don't pick up people. If they really come to pick people up, maybe something will happen.
The three of them found a restaurant on the street near the station to have lunch. Then, after making some inquiries, they rented a carriage and took the three of them to Yimianpo Town.
Although it was a main road, it was not easy to walk on. We also escaped a shower of rain and arrived at Yianmenpo Town around four o'clock in the afternoon.
Going into the mountains at this time would definitely make it impossible to reach the special training base, and it would still be dangerous. Zhou Sen decided to stay in the town for one night and go back to the mountains early the next morning.
Anna naturally refused to miss such a good opportunity, but she didn't expect that Zhou Sen actually rented two rooms in order to save money, one for him and Wu En, and one for Anna.
This made Anna's teeth itch with hatred, but there was nothing she could do about him. There were some things that she could do, but she couldn't say.
Wu En became Zhou Sen's perfect shield.
But when they went into the mountains next, Wu En couldn't go, and Zhou Sen didn't want him to go, so he could only stay in the town and wait for them to come back.
The two rented a horse each in the town and entered the mountains smoothly. It was broad daylight and the roads were familiar to them. They entered the special training base easily.
Since they left, the special training base has been expanded, adding many houses and training facilities.
There are hundreds of people stationed here for training and logistical support. In addition to training intelligence agents, they also train military personnel for special operations, mostly Belarusian and Mongolian. There are even specialized gliding and parachuting trainings. Don’t forget them at first. The training cycle was much longer.
Zhou Sen and Anna came to pick people. Zuo Tengying gave him four places, but Zhou Sen was not satisfied. He packed up all the ones he liked.
