Lost and Spy

Chapter 1101
Zhan Yuping fired a round of bullets.

He quickly changed a magazine.

Bai Qiao's face was covered with blood.

He grunted, but then pulled the trigger.

The melody of "Song of Four Seasons" sounded in his mouth again.

He's always been at the forefront.

He never let Meng Shaoyuan and Wu Jingyi surpass him.

All around, there were gunshots like firecrackers.

Several teams were fighting to the death there.

It's not a brave assault, it's a desperate assault!

Suddenly, a long whistle sounded from the pier.

Gone, the cruise ship is gone!
Mr. Dai is gone too!

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Meng Shaoyuan roared.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Wu Jingyi yelled.

"Miss Zhan, let's go!"

As soon as Meng Shaoyuan finished speaking, Zhan Yuping turned around and smiled:
"It can't be done."

His mouth was full of blood.

His body was covered in blood.

He staggered and fell slowly to the ground.

Meng Shaoyuan rushed forward.

He will never forget this day in his life.

Zhan Yuping, who was only 24 years old, was holding his hand tightly. He was crying, really crying.Miss Zhan, who was strolling in the yard amidst the hail of bullets, said while crying:

"Sir, save me, I don't want to die, I don't want to..."

At this moment, Meng Shaoyuan realized that he was so incompetent...

……

Li Shiqun and Zai Rong have become "friends" after two or three days of contact.

This Zai Rong has really big hands and feet, and he has no restraint in spending money.

He tipped everyone in Licha Hotel, from the manager to the waiter.

The Japanese manager of Licha Hotel wanted to please Zai Rong, and even specially found a chef who could cook royal dishes to serve Zai Rong.

Zai Rong is also a real connoisseur.

After tasting those dishes, he immediately pointed out what was wrong and what should be improved.

The chef was also sincerely convinced when he heard it, and said in private that this is a meeting of a great expert.

Li Shiqun treated Zai Rong to a meal, which was quite luxurious.

During the dinner, I didn't dig too much into Zai Rong's background, but just chatted without saying a word.

Some things must not be rushed.

After a few days, Zai Rong and Li Shiqun talked about everything.

Li Shiqun's goal was achieved.

He knew that it was time to close the net...

……

"Mr. Li evacuated safely."

"Report casualties."

"Our side killed 14 people, injured eight people, and captured four people. Killed the enemy..."

"Don't say it, don't say it, I don't care how many enemies I kill."

The number of dead exceeded the number of wounded.

Meng Shaoyuan had a sad smile on his lips.

Mr. Dai is safe, but his brother.

don't come.

Those important officials in Chongqing, you should really stop coming to Shanghai.

It's all the blood of the brothers!
……

"The crowd."

Zai Rong's address to Li Shiqun changed: "You and I hit it off right away, so I have to say something to you."

Li Shiqun's spirit was greatly lifted, the moment he was waiting for finally arrived!

"Prince Chun is my cousin." Zai Rong said slowly: "In the 34th year of Guangxu, he served as the minister of military aircraft. In the same year, the emperor and Lafayette died. Everyone knows these things, and I don't need to repeat them. Today I want to tell Yours is what you don't know.

At that time, although my Qing Dynasty was troubled both at home and abroad, the emaciated camel was bigger than a horse, and when its roots were downrooted, it was enough for several families to eat and wear for a lifetime.Back then, the chaotic party was rampant, and it was quite imposing.At the beginning of the 34th year of Guangxu, Lafayette specially set up a "Great Qing Longxing Special Fund" as a precautionary measure..."

"The Qing Dynasty's special funds for Longxing?" Li Shiqun was taken aback.

"That's right." Zai Rong's voice couldn't help lowering his voice: "This was personally ordered by Lafayette...the army, and later the rebellious party occupied Wuchang, and the former clues demanded military pay, a mere 200 million taels of silver, and the court couldn't even get it. It came out because all the money in the court was in this special fund."

Li Shiqun really believed this.

During the Wuchang Uprising, the Qing court really couldn’t afford any money. In the end, they forced those princes and Baylors to “voluntarily” donate, and barely got together 200 million taels of silver.

But the strange thing is that in order to show the royal family's determination to suppress the rebellious party, the Empress Dowager Longyu used internal funds to donate 100 million taels at once.

This shows that the royal family is still rich, and very rich.

Zai Rong continued: "What Lafayette means is that Prince Jin will be in charge of the government, and I will secretly guard the huge sum of money. If the situation really gets out of hand in the future, then the court will retreat to the outside of the customs. Jueluo Longxing Land, this huge sum of money is the hope of restoring the country in the future!
Later, when the emperor and Lafayette died, I took advantage of the chaos in the capital and quietly left the capital with this huge sum of money, all the way to the United States. To the outside world, it was me who drank too much, fell into the water and died... Actually, I was Shouldering the love of Lafayette and the important task of restoring the Qing Dynasty!
Lafayette had a secret agreement with the Americans, so I deposited the money in the bank designated by Lafayette in the United States, and then transferred to Nanyang, where I settled down, and I have not been able to return to China until now..."

Li Shiqun's curiosity was fully aroused: "Master Belle, how much is this money? Ah, this is private, so if Lord Belle doesn't want to talk about Shiqun, of course he can't force it."

"It doesn't matter." Zai Rong said solemnly, "8000 million taels of silver!"

"So much?" Li Shiqun gasped.

"Gold, jewelry, and antiques are all counted among them." Zai Rong calmly said, "I haven't calculated the interest of these years... Hehe, what is this money? Compared with back then, it's just a drop in the bucket. Boxer's compensation, 5000 million taels, the imperial court didn't pay attention to it. Why did it have to be repaid in 39 years? That's because of the foresight of Lafayette, when paying the compensation every year, he would always secretly keep a part of it... Over time, this money..."

Li Shiqun was dubious: "Then why has Baylor kept his name incognito all these years?"

"Scholar, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart." Zai Rong sighed: "The Qing Dynasty is dead, it is really dead, how many courts have you seen and then restored to the country? It's just a dream. From another angle, think about it, if you are in charge of such a huge amount of wealth, and everyone who knows the inside information is dead, will you be tempted by this huge amount of money?"

Li Shiqun believed a little more in his heart.

This is the real truth.

8000 million taels of silver, what is that concept?
And the interest for these years?

Li Shiqun really couldn't figure it out.

He suddenly asked: "Master Belle, this is a big secret, why did you tell the crowd? Aren't you afraid that the crowd will leak it?"

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid." Zai Rong said: "But I need to find a reliable person. You, Li Shiqun, are the most powerful person in Shanghai Bund. This person is exactly what I need. And..."

He seemed hesitant to speak.

Li Shiqun smiled: "Lord Belle, since you trust me, it's okay to say what you have to say, as long as it is something Shiqun can do, you absolutely dare not shirk it!"

"Okay, the scholars are bold!" Zai Rong also went all out: "To tell you the truth, if I want to use this fund now, I have encountered a huge problem!"
