Code Name: Flame

Chapter 18 Bribery
Before getting out of the car, Zhu Xuefan gave him a suitcase, "Thank you brother for your righteousness. The money is for you to make money. If it is not enough, I will make it up."

Chen Jia instinctively wanted to refuse, but on second thought, the money from the underworld is not for nothing.

Back at the hotel, everyone was waiting for him. Seeing that he came back reeking of alcohol, he knew he was fine.

Gu Minghua pulled him back exaggeratedly, and after looking at his whole body carefully, he covered his mouth and nose and waved his hands in disgust, "It stinks, go back and take a bath quickly. Don't drink so much alcohol in the future, it's not good for your health."

"Hey, Gu Minghua, he didn't say he would marry you." Zhang Min's yin and yang aura didn't anger Gu Minghua, and he might be used to it, so he was immune.

Gu Minghua pretended not to hear, and just urged Chen Jia to go back to the room. Amidst the roar of laughter, Chen Jia returned to the room.

After taking a shower, he opened the suitcase, and there were thirty gold bars neatly stacked in the box, the golden yellow dazzling.Thirty gold bars to buy a life is also worth it.

After getting dressed, he knocked on Gu Minghua's door with a suitcase, and heard rustling noises inside for a while, and Gu Minghua's voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Chen Jia, open the door, I need to find you."

The door opened, and Gu Minghua poked his head out to look at Chen Jia, "Brother, it's already midnight, you..."

Chen Jia pushed her head back with a slap, and then squeezed in, "Let's go in if we have something to say."

Gu Minghua's face turned red, and he stretched his head to look at the corridor, but there was no one there, so he quickly locked the door.

Sitting on a chair, Chen Jia saw that she was wearing a cream-yellow cotton-wool pajamas, with a large snow-white glaring under her neck, so she quickly lowered her eyes and pointed to the chair beside her to signal her to sit down.

"There is something that I want to ask you to get away with."

He told the story of what happened today, and finally said: "This is given by Du Yuesheng, if it is not enough, he will find a way."

At this moment, Gu Minghua's shyness was gone, and his face returned to normal.Opened the box and took a look, then closed it again and handed it to Chen Jia, "Keep it for yourself, it's easy, I'll just call my brother. Don't stare at me, it's really easy."

He got up and poured a cup of hot water for Chen Jia and himself, held the cups and explained: "A few years ago, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party confronted each other and killed many members of the Communist Party. Japan invaded the Northeast, and everyone realized that the country was in danger, so it was not a particularly serious case of the Communist Party, and generally they would not kill people casually."

"My brother told me that maybe the Kuomintang and the Communist Party should cooperate to stop the civil war and jointly defend against the outside world. But he is loyal to the head of state, and this kind of talk is mostly at home. What about Zhu Anchen, It’s nothing more than the head of the trade union, or at most the periphery of the Communist Party, such people can be educated and released after a few days.”

Chen Jia was worried, so he wouldn't think that Zhu Anchen was really an insignificant peripheral like Gu Minghua said, and he might be a genuine Communist Party.

"But in case..."

"Come on, how can there be so many contingencies? You can talk to Zhu Xuefan later, just kill him and don't admit it. I'll call my brother tomorrow and just shut him down for a few days and he'll be fine."

Chen Jia was dubious, but it was inconvenient to urge her, so she agreed.

Going back to the room and putting down the suitcase, he turned around and went downstairs to give Zhu Xuefan a call, "Just beat him to death and refuse to admit that he is a member of the Communist Party. My classmate will go find his brother tomorrow, and I will call you when I have the final result."

Zhu Xuefan was overwhelmed with gratitude on the other end of the phone, thanking him repeatedly.

Chen Jia was in a panic, always worried that things would not be that simple.

Who knew that Gu Minghua called, and it was Mr. Gu's secretary who answered the call. After hearing what happened, he didn't say anything, but said to wait for news, and he would handle it himself.

In the evening, the secretary called and said that he had been released.

Chen Jia was stunned, why should the secretary make a phone call to solve this matter?It's so simple, do you want to return the gold?Think about not paying back the money from the gangsters, should you return it and let them continue to do evil?
Immediately, they called Zhu Xuefan and told him the news that he had been released, without mentioning anything about the gold bars.Zhu Xuefan didn't ask, but was very grateful.

Gu Minghua didn't take this matter to heart, and continued to build the Great Wall. In order to thank her for her generosity, Chen Jia turned into a small follower, serving tea and water by the side, very active.It made Zhang Min almost lose his temper at the poker table, and made all kinds of sarcasm and sarcasm at Chen Jia's best.

During the day, Zhan Hao took them to Nanjing Road for shopping.I’ve been in Shanghai for a few days, and I haven’t visited Shili Yangchang seriously, and I haven’t tasted the real prosperity of Shanghai.

Chen Jia has no feelings for Nanjing Road. In his previous life, Nanjing Road has become a national tourist attraction, but it has no attraction for Shanghai locals. Locals used to go to Huaihai Road more, but later Huaihai Road was still in decline. City circles became popular.

Chen Jia went to the bank first to deposit the gold.This thing is hot to hold, if there is no place to hide it, it can only be deposited in the bank.

Then he went to Zhongwei Shipping Company to meet with Chen Heng.Chen Heng was very enthusiastic and specially invited him to have a meal in the western restaurant at noon.Chen Jia's skillful knives and forks made Chen Heng more sure of his American identity, so he told about Tang Zong's investigation of him.

Chen Jia explained that because he was going to skip the grade exam, the school had to do a background check, which was normal.He disapproved on his lips, but he was quite surprised in his heart.But thinking about it is also relieved. The next few decades will be the era of successive years of war. The death toll in China is as high as more than [-] million. Who knows how long they can live?Take one step at a time.

The next day, a group of people embarked on the way back to school, singing and laughing along the way.The women have gained a lot this time, and they bought a lot of stylish ones, and the rouge and gouache are even more dazzling.

Gu Minghua bought the most, a full two boxes, so Chen Jia became a mule. Fortunately, with the help of Qiu Bingyi and Wang Dawu, Chen Jia was not exhausted to death.

Wang Wei came back a day earlier than them and brought a lot of special products from her hometown to share with them.Gu Minghua gave her a pair of earrings, and Zhang Min gave her a brooch.

Chen Jia asked her out alone, and the two met in a cafe outside the school.

"Why do you come to the cafe again? If you have this money, you might as well give it to me. What a waste." Wang Wei kept complaining while eating the cake.It seemed that Zhang Min didn't tell her what happened in Shanghai, which made Chen Jia's heart hang in his throat finally let go.

"Eat slowly, order more if you don't have enough, no one will grab yours."

A word of concern and a little teasing made Wang Wei stop.He stared at Chen Jia for a long time, until Chen Jia lowered his head and asked, "Did you get rich? Or did you do something shameful?"

Chen Jia felt bitter, this woman is not human.How did the sixth sense come about?Why do women have it and men don't?But men also have a unique trick, which is to deny, to kill without telling.

"It's true that I made a small fortune. You eat it openly today, and I will tell you another good news when you are happy."

Wang Wei glanced at Chen Jia suspiciously, then curled her mouth, "Order another piece of cake, and I'll eat you poor."

"Okay, you can chop me up and eat it for you."

"Bah, that's all nonsense."

After eating the last bite of cake, Wang Wei finally wiped her mouth in satisfaction, then stretched out her hand, "Give it to me."

"I'll give you whatever?"

"Gift, I don't believe you don't have a gift for me."

Chen Jiachao looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he took out an envelope from his underwear pocket and handed it over, "There are thirty large yellow croakers in the safe of the Bank of China, and I paid half a year's storage fee. All you need is your name, certificate of deposit, certificate and key here."

Wang Wei shook her outstretched hand, her eyes filled with disbelief: "Are you crazy? Where did you get the gold? Snatch it? What are you doing for me?"

Chen Jia hesitated for a moment, but in the end she didn't tell what she saw in Shanghai, but simply told Zhu Xuefan what he asked him to save someone.

"Let's think about it, if you don't take the money from the Youth Gang, it's not worth it. I'm holding it hot. If they find out that there is no good fruit to eat, so I will give it to you. It will be an advance payment for me being cheated by you for ten years. "

Wang Wei was still flustered and did not wake up, and Chen Jia had already put the envelope into her bag.

"In the future, I will save some of my salary for myself. Your family is rich, so you won't be like a poor ghost all day long. Give the gold bars out, I will find a way to make money if it is not enough. What kind of songs are you singing on the top of the mountain, what kind of people are you living? Days are too extreme and work is prone to mistakes."

Wang Wei's face changed slightly. She understood what Chen Jia said, but her heart was in a mess, and she didn't know how to answer.
