Code Name: Flame

Chapter 17 Du Yuesheng

It is easy to be fascinated by reading books, especially books that interest you.

When Chen Jia's stomach was growling, he realized that it was getting late, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.It seems that this monitoring has failed, and the only gain is to finish reading this book.

Laughing at myself, my heart stopped.She came naturally for a reason, so what's the matter with spying on her?Besides, it is also possible that she lives in the house of a former colleague, and may not come to Mrs. Yao's house.

When the mind is clear, people will naturally be much more relaxed.Picking and picking in the bookstore, I picked a few books and bought them, and then I hailed a rickshaw and went back.

When he rushed back to the hotel, there were a few men in black shirts waiting for him. Li Shan whispered in his ear, "He said Du Yuesheng sent you here, and he has been waiting here for a long time. But he was very polite, so he probably didn't come here to find trouble." .”

The leading man in black was quite polite. Seeing Chen Jia looking over, he immediately clasped his hands and said, "Mr. Du, please come to the mansion for a while. The banquet has already been set up in the mansion. Please do me a favor."

Are these words from Du Yuesheng?Did you see a ghost in broad daylight?
Chen Jia knew in her heart that it must be the raising of the heads of Officer Gu and Officer Zhang that had bluffed him.No matter how capable Du Yuesheng is, he can't fight against the state apparatus, can he?Besides, Du Yuesheng was asking for money, not like Wang Yaqiao asking for righteousness.

"It's better to be respectful than to obey, and please brother lead the way."

The man in black looked happy, and hurriedly ordered to call a car, and stretched out his hand, "Please move, sir."

Du Yuesheng had a lot of style and sent a Cadillac to pick him up. You must know that this kind of car is considered a top luxury car, and it is not something ordinary people can afford.

Du Mansion is on Huagebei Road, very close to the site of the First Congress, and also very close to the house rented by Chen Jia.I have passed by here countless times in my previous life, but I have never seen this building, which is strange and strange.

Chen Jia is young, so of course she doesn't know.This building was bought before he was born, and it was transplanted to Xiyunlou Commercial Street in Jiading as a whole.

After getting out of the car, Chen Jia looked around, filled with emotion.The big world in the south is now resplendent and resplendent, and it is the most famous place in Shanghai.A little closer is the Nanjing Grand Theater, which is the famous Shanghai Concert Hall in the previous life.

The past is gone, and I can't bear to look back on it. Past and present lives, let's do it and cherish it.With a lot of emotion in my heart, I entered the Du mansion with the butler who greeted me at the door.

In the lobby of the Du mansion, a lean man in his 40s, wearing a long robe and mandarin jacket, was standing in the living room and looking at him with a smile on his face.Well, judging by his momentum, it should be Du Yuesheng.

Chen Jia walked in front of Du Yuesheng, just about to extend his hand to shake hands, but unexpectedly, Du Yuesheng bowed his hands first.Caught off guard, Chen Jia had no choice but to learn how to return the salute.

The bowing ceremony is to make a fist with the right hand and cover it with the left hand.How did Chen Jia understand this, and it turned out to be bottom left and top right.

Du Yuesheng saw with his own eyes and saw Chen Jia's wrong manner, but he didn't take it seriously, and stretched out his hand to invite Chen Jia to sit down.

"I don't know how can I call you little brother?" Du Yuesheng's Mandarin is mixed with a typical Pudong local accent, which sounds a bit weird.

The prevailing official language in the period of the Republic of China was the official language based on BJ dialect, which was very similar to the Mandarin of the previous life, but slightly different. Chen Jia’s standard Mandarin was not a standard Mandarin to their ears.Compared with Du Yuesheng's Mandarin, Chen Jia felt that he was more authentic.

"Chen Jia, Erdong Chen, it's a great compliment." Chen Jia replied in Shanghai dialect, and Du Yuesheng was a little surprised for a while.

"Du is older, so I can call you little brother."

Chen Jiaxin said, how can you be older? Calculated according to your age, you are dozens of years older than my grandfather.

"Mr. Du is free to call me Chen Jia."

Du Yuesheng's eyes showed a bit of brilliance, Chen Jia's reply was wrong, but he didn't know it.

During the period of the Republic of China, the most intimate address was to call the other party's name, and it was the most impolite to call someone by their first name.The more polite term is to address others by their identity, such as Mr. Du, Chief Officer Yang, Manager Li, Father of the Liu family, and Mother of the Wang family. This is a more common term.Later, it developed into Xiao Li, Lao Zhang, and even the more obscure Lao Wang next door.

Chen Jia asked Du Yuesheng to call him by his first name, didn't this make him humiliate him?This brain circuit is very strange!But judging from the fact that this little guy's attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, and he doesn't look like other people deliberately trying to please him, he is not stupid after all.If it is not stupid, then there is a special reason.

These few answers from Chen Jia successfully aroused Du Yuesheng's great interest.

"Little brother from Shanghai?"

"I just came back from the United States for half a year." Chen Jia was not sure what the old Chuansha hooligan meant, so he answered very quickly.

Du Yuesheng groaned, and the mystery in his heart gradually became clear.It turned out to be a yellow-skinned banana, so I don't know much about Chinese customs and etiquette.

"Yesterday I heard from the Seven Officials that some children had a misunderstanding with Nong. I invited Nong to come over this morning. I just wanted to talk about it. They are all my own people. Don't misunderstand." Du Yuesheng deliberately slowed down his speech, because he was afraid that Chen Jia would not understand , so this official saying is even more awkward.

Qiguan means the seventh boy in the dialect, and it is generally used as a nickname.To be able to be called by Du Yuesheng's nickname, the relationship is not ordinary close.

Following Du Yuesheng's fingers, a gentle young man in a gray robe and glasses nodded slightly at him. In response, Chen Jia also bowed slightly, as a greeting.

"Mr. Du was serious. Later, I went to find out. It was my classmate's cousin who was wrong. The casino cheated. It was absolutely wrong. Chen Jia was eager to save people, and he shot and hurt the brothers of the Guibang. He was offended."

While talking, Chen Jia took out a stack of money, divided it into three piles and placed them neatly on the coffee table.

"This is the money my classmate's cousin won in the casino, a total of 400 yuan. This is what I forced those brothers to pay for medical expenses, a total of 32 yuan. This is the medical expenses I compensated for those brothers, 50 yuan. Du Sir, I'm really sorry, we are all students, so our ability to pay compensation is limited, forgive me."

Du Yuesheng looked back at his subordinates, and asked with a smile, "Where does my little brother study?"

"At the Nanjing Central Army Military Academy, we are all classmates."

"Oh, it turned out to be from Whampoa, hahahahahaha, the water really rushed into the Dragon King Temple. Many people in your Whampoa Military Academy and I are good brothers. You are their junior, aren't you also your own?"

Come on, this girder has been uncovered.

Du Yuesheng was in high spirits, and waved his hand to signal Chen Jia to put away the money, "Kids are just kidding around, you're too natural, how can you be yourself? Put it away, you're hungry, let's eat first, and talk while eating."

During the banquet, the cups were exchanged, and everyone chatted happily.Du Yuesheng asked Gu Minghua and Zhang Min about their backgrounds, and Chen Jia also told the truth.He knew very well in his heart that how could Du Yuesheng invite him to dinner for no reason, he must have something to use him for.

What can I use?Isn't it the background relationship of these two classmates?
"Little brother, he is my apprentice. His name is Zhu Xuefan, and his nickname is Qiguan. He is the head of our Shanghai Workers' Federation. You are all young people, so keep in touch with each other."

Zhu Xuefan is the young man wearing glasses. After listening to the master's introduction, he held up his wine glass and said: "If you don't do it first, it's a respect. We will be friends in the future. Please give me advice." After speaking, he touched the wine glass in Chen Jia's hand, Tilt your head and drink it.

Chen Jia naturally did not refuse, and immediately smiled and said: "Brother Zhu is Gao Yi, I dare not ask for advice. As a martial artist, I like to make friends." After finishing speaking, he drank it down.

A few people were full of wine and food, Chen Jia offered to leave, but Du Yuesheng didn't want to stay, "You are old, and your energy is not as good as that of young people, so let the seven officials send you off."

After leaving the Du mansion, the car was already waiting outside the door. When Chen Jia entered, seeing Zhu Xuefan also followed in, his heart was clear, and the meat scene was coming.

The vehicle started and drove smoothly on the road. Zhu Xuefan said, "Brother, brother has something embarrassing. I wonder if brother can help?"

"No matter what, I will help you with whatever you can, brother, please tell me." Chen Jia's words are not like what a 20-year-old would say, they are extremely slippery.

Zhu Xuefan also pretended not to understand, but just rambled on about the matter.

It turned out that Zhu Anchen, the leader of the labor union of Jiaxing Post and Telecommunications Bureau, was arrested and detained by the police station for distributing red leaflets. It is said that he will be escorted to Nanjing.Distributing leaflets is not a felony. After all, slogans such as anti-Japanese and recovery of rivers and mountains cannot be said to be the Communist Party.Zhu Anchen is Zhu Xuefan's brother in the clan, so please Chen Jia think of a way, no matter how powerful the Green Gang is, they can't extend their hands to Jiangsu.

After Chen Jia listened to it, she knew in her heart that if that Zhu Anchen wasn't a Communist Party, he would be damned.He wondered why Du Yuesheng and Zhu Xuefan wanted to help the Communist Party?Shouldn't there be a balance between good and evil?
He didn't know the twists and turns. In fact, there are many gangsters in Shanghai who help the Communist Party. Du Yuesheng has helped many times, and Wang Yaqiao has helped many times. He almost became the Communist Party himself.Walker next to him is the Minister of the Interior after the founding of the People's Republic of China, a proper red spy.
