Chapter 516 Reunited Again
Gu Qi talked about what happened when he ran to the door to help after receiving the silent alarm. Zuo Zhong had a dumbfounding expression on his face.

He held back a smile and asked: "Then, is my grandfather angry? If I had been notified earlier, how could such a thing have happened? Where have you arranged them? Be sure to keep it secret.

Our Secret Service is a sensitive unit, and the work content is very special. Be careful of those drivers and servants who see what they shouldn’t see and hear what they shouldn’t listen to. "

"Don't worry, deputy director. The old man is not angry. He even asked me to reward the guards at the gate. He said that the secret service is quite like a small willow camp. If the national army is like this, why should we be afraid of Japanese pirates?"

Gu Qi explained with a smile, and then said the arrangement for Zuo's family: "The old man and the others are temporarily resting in the cafeteria. The driver and servants are waiting in the car. I have sent surveillance personnel."

As the chief of the intelligence section, it is his duty to ensure that the information is not leaked, and the deputy director's family members are not allowed to come and go on secret floors at will.

Zuo Chong nodded in satisfaction after hearing this. The threat of the Japanese is imminent. Without good military discipline, there is no way to talk about winning. He has no control over other places, but the Secret Service must remain vigilant.

The car was speeding on the Jinling road, and soon turned into Honggong Temple. Gu Qi drove the car directly to the cafeteria, and saw Zuo Zhong's younger brother Zuo Jun, younger sister Zuo Duo and He Yijun standing at the door.

When they were in Ningbo, the two learned fighting skills from each other. Naturally, they were very happy to meet again this time. The three talked and laughed, until they turned their heads together when they heard the sound of the car.

"Zuo Jun, Zuo Duo."

As soon as the car came to a complete stop, Zuo Zhong opened the car door with a smile on his face and waved his hands. He hadn't seen him for more than half a year. His younger brother and younger sister looked much more stable, not as indifferent as before.

That's good, people say that wealth can't last for three generations, if the descendants are incompetent, no matter how much family business passed down by the ancestors, it is useless, and the family will inevitably decline, only one's own ability is true.

"Big brother."

"Big brother."

The two people over there rushed over when they heard the call, and Zuo Duo happily took his arm and said softly, "Brother, grandfather lost his temper just now, but he will be fine in a while."

Zuo Zhong patted the girl's head: "That's the grandpa who has a lot of innocent people who don't get angry. By the way, how are your studies? Did you get the teacher's permission to come to Jinling this time?"

"When we came here, my mother asked us to take a vacation with the school. The textbooks are in the car. Don't worry, brother, I will be the first female scientist in the Republic of China in the future." Zuo Duo said with her neck held high.

Zuo Zhong couldn't help but tugged at her chubby little face, and sighed, the future will be full of wars, and there will be no place for a quiet desk in the Republic of China, but why is only Zuo Duo answering.

He glanced suspiciously at his younger brother who seemed to be innocent, and his face sank: "Zuo Jun, why didn't you speak? What did I say when I left home? Did you do something wrong by relying on the power of your family?"

"No no."

Zuo Jun shook his head desperately: "Everything is going well in the school, but they are about to graduate, and they are a little hesitant about which way to go in the future. Many students are planning to apply for Central University and Army University.

Now that the country is being bullied by foreign powers, it is reasonable for a man to join the army and fight for a life for the nation, but I am really not interested in the military, so I don't know how to answer. "

It turned out to be a matter of volunteering.

Zuo Zhong pondered for a moment. The universities in the Republic of China were different from the later generations. They took the road of self-enrolment. Students first submitted their volunteers to the school, and the school conducted interviews and written tests at a fixed time.

Because of the imperfection of the system and the flexibility of admission standards, it is convenient for the rich and powerful to take advantage of the loopholes. Many college students in the Republic of China relied on their family connections to successfully enter institutions of higher learning.

As the younger brother of the real deputy director of the Secret Service, it can be said that Zuo Jun can go to university wherever he wants, and Luo Zhixi, the president of Central University, owes him a favor.

If it weren't for the tight tone of the intelligence department, the deeds of a certain minion would have spread all over Jinling, not to mention the old principal Zhu Jiahua was very powerful in the education system of the Republic of China, who would dare not show face.

It’s just that it’s not appropriate for Zuo Jun to stay in the Republic of China to study. The first is the quality of teaching, and the second is the change of the current situation. Life is fragile, and a bullet of a few cents can destroy everything.

Besides, my grandfather and father came to Jinling probably because they were planning to expose the scam of the Beilun Wharf. At that time, the other party would be very dangerous in the country. Don't overestimate the moral bottom line of those businessmen.

Zuo Zhong patted Zuo Jun on the shoulder calmly: "It's okay, I will discuss it with my family. In Jinling, I can still talk to you, brother. You don't have to worry about other things."

"Okay, big brother."

Zuo Jun seemed to reply obediently, but he knew very well in his heart that his elder brother was more than able to talk in Jinling. Not long after they arrived at the cafeteria, several waves of people came to flatter him.

Some people want to give away houses, some people want to send guards, and some people want to give away radio stations, saying that it is so convenient for Deputy Director Zuo to communicate with his family.

He is indeed not very old, but he can clearly see the welcoming and sending off under the influence of his ears and eyes. If it weren't for the status of the eldest brother, those officials who looked very imposing would never be so polite.

Just like in Ningbo, people from the government and the party also respected Zuo's family very much. Even the mysterious and mysterious groups in the school tried to recruit him several times, but he refused.

Zuo Jun considers himself a rational person, and he knows that some friends can be made, and some friends cannot be made, at least not in an open and honest manner, otherwise it will easily cause trouble for the upper body and family members.

More importantly, slogans and leaflets alone cannot save the Republic of China. Everything they do must be put into action. Their current task is to learn and use knowledge to arm their brains and bodies.

So if his family agrees, he hopes to stay in Jinling to go to school. Why not take advantage of his good family background?

"Well, let's go in first."

Zuo Zhong didn't know anything about his younger brother's thoughts, he took the lead in pushing open the door of the cafeteria and walked in, seeing his family members sitting at the dining table resting from a distance, he was a little excited.

He walked quickly to the front and bowed deeply: "Grandson Zuo Zhong has seen his grandfather, grandfather, father, and mother. Why don't you notify me when you come to Jinling, so I can send someone to protect you along the way."

Zuo Xuechen, who was talking to his in-laws, looked sideways at his grandson, nodded slightly and said: "It seems that the yamen is not idle, but it is thinner than during the Spring Festival, so pay attention to your body.

This time I came here in a hurry, so I didn't notify in advance, so I didn't need protection. When I went to Hangzhou to take the Juren examination, I set off from Ningbo Mansion alone, and I didn't encounter anything along the way.

What's more, with so many people and cars, ordinary thieves and robbers can't hide in time, so how dare they step forward to make trouble. When encountering government checkpoints, the few special passes you left behind are enough.

I heard that you are studying at the Army University, which is very good. You must not take credit for being promoted to deputy director. The more the superior appreciates you, the more you have to walk on thin ice. It is always good to learn more. "

"Yes, grandson knows."

Zuo Zhong seriously replied, this is a special way for the older generation to express their concern, although the words are not pleasant, but every sentence comes from the heart, no one is willing to remind like this except close relatives.

"Okay, in-laws, let's reunite as a family, so don't be sullen. Zuo Zhong is much better than those useless things in the Mei family. The deputy chief of an important agency, this is not easy."

At this time, Zuo Zhong's grandfather, who was standing next to him, made a joke. He was wearing a neat suit. He was indeed the most famous gold medal comprador in Shanghai decades ago, and he was very Westernized in his attire.

Zuo Zhong hurriedly said modestly: "Grandfather, you have a high reputation. Several cousins ​​have gained a great reputation in Hong Kong City and Shanghai, and have represented many foreign companies in the trade business. Even I have heard of it."

What he said was the truth. His uncles and cousins ​​were doing business with foreigners from all over the world. They were involved in everything except tobacco and soil. They perfectly inherited the comprador business of their grandfather.

Anyway, in the future registration, the Zuo family and the Mei family are designated not to escape. One is a big landlord and the other is a big comprador.

"Mei Tianliang, don't compare those bastards in your family to my grandson. I heard that some time ago, someone painted the bristles of mottled pigs with black paint to pretend to be black bristles, and cheated British businessmen a lot of money."

At this time, Zuo Xuechen said in a strange way, yes, the name of Zuo Zhong's grandfather is a bit shocking, a businessman calling this name is tantamount to telling a customer that I want to kill you.

But the Mei family was in a comprador business, and foreigners didn’t know what homophonic sounds were. Chinese people had to accept the products they produced in the West.

Mei Tianliang was not angry when his old in-laws found out. He straightened his suit and raised his head and said, "The invoice clearly stated pig bristles, but it didn't say it was black bristles. This has nothing to do with our Mei family."

Zuo Zhong's father, Zuo Shanwen, and mother, Mei Huizhen, stood aside with helpless expressions on their faces. They were very happy to see their son, but before they could speak, the pair of old urchins started arguing.

Zuo Zhong also couldn't laugh or cry, and hurriedly interjected respectfully: "Grandfather, maternal grandfather, the journey to Jinling is several hundred kilometers, everyone is exhausted all the way, so let's go home first."

Of course, the home he mentioned did not refer to the dormitory in C-district. The deputy director of Tangtang's secret service department didn't need to ask for a loan if he wanted to borrow a house.

Sure enough, when the Zuo family walked out of the cafeteria, a small spy handed over a key with both hands and reported an address in a low voice, or else, only when you become an official, can you know what happiness is.

　8:50. . . .I fell asleep and wrote all night standing up.
