Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1964 Do you want to go back to the old city?

Sijiucheng, Public Security, General Administration.

"Old Radish, it's not easy for me to come here once, you won't turn me away, will you?"

Hao Pingchuan was talking in the office with a smile on his face, looking like he deserved a beating.

But it was this look that made the old man sitting at the desk not angry at all.

Back then, when he first came to this city, he brought this group of young people to work here.

At that time, the situation was much more serious than it is now.

And now, they are no longer young.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Come to my house for dinner tonight."

"Oh, well, I'm the best at making scrambled eggs."

"Humph, you still have the nerve to say that. Who was it that was held by the collar and made a big splash back then?"

Hao Pingchuan laughed again, "That's just because of youth and ignorance."

"Okay, go out and find Duomen, I'm still busy here."

"Okay, I'll go first."

Then he stood up and went out, closing the door.

Seeing Duomen standing in the corridor with his hands behind his back, Hao Pingchuan immediately ran over and hugged him, "Mr. Duo, won't you treat me to lunch today?"

Duomen was held so tightly by Hao Pingchuan that he couldn't breathe. "Hurry up, let go quickly. I can't breathe any more."

Hao Pingchuan quickly let go, "You guys have been living here for a long time. Look, it's only been a few years, and you're already panting when you walk."

Duomen shook his head. "No, you have to be submissive when you get older, unlike you, who is like a bear."

Hao Pingchuan smiled, and the two of them walked out.

Duomen asked about what happened above, and the two of them finally talked about Zong Xiangfang, and the topic ended there.

"Zong Xiangfang, he always wanted to be a good person."

"Unfortunately, I'm on the wrong team."

Hao Pingchuan nodded and said, "Let's go to Quanjude."

"What are you doing there?"

"Eat, it's your turn."

"You guy!"

in the office.

After Hao Pingchuan left, Lao Luobo picked up the phone and made a call.

"Hey, Lao Zeng!"

"He's back. Well, he should have come back last night."

"Everything went well. Nothing serious."

"it is good."

"What? Me? Forget it. I'm old now. I might collapse and meet Marx one day. Let's leave the opportunity to the young people."

Lao Luobo talked to the person on the phone for a while before hanging up.

He sat in the chair, thought for a while, and picked up the phone again.

"Chaoyang, it's me"

"A lot of things have happened here, you know! Have you ever thought about coming back?"

"It's not over yet? What's going on?"

"it is good!"

"Then you finish it first."

pat!

Zheng Chaoyang hung up the phone, rubbed his dark circles, and then looked at his wife in front of him with a tired face.

Bai Ling came over, put down the cup of water, and then rubbed Zheng Chaoyang's temples to relieve his fatigue.

Zheng Chaoyang closed his eyes and calmed his mind.

"It was Lao Luobo who called and asked if I wanted to go back to Sijiu City and take over!"

Zheng Chaoyang suddenly spoke, and Bai Ling continued to knead with her hands.

During these years in Shanghai, Zheng Chaoyang has become a person with experience, political achievements, and merits, and he is also a legitimate member of the Shanghai community.

No one has any objection to promoting him.

Even in Shanghai, although he had two superiors above him, Zheng Chaoyang was still the one actually responsible for daily management.

Transferring him back to Beijing was a natural outcome.

However, she understood the meaning of Zheng Chaoyang's words just now and decided not to go back.

At least not for now.

She could guess the reason. One reason was because of her elder brother Zheng Chaoshan.

Another reason is that the case is not over.

One Zong Shujun was captured, but the other five were not found.

This means that the other party is more cunning than you imagined.

During this period, there was no progress in the interrogation of Zong Shujun.

As for the other people arrested, they only provided some information about the shipyard, and they had no idea about the specific actions.

So he always wanted to figure out the other party's means of action. You know, destroying a shipyard is not an easy task.

Earlier, Zong Shujun said in the car without warning, "He will die peacefully", which made Hao Pingchuan and others guess that the other party might use "poison gas" to destroy the shipyard.

But according to his understanding, there was really no poisonous gas at that time that could allow people to die peacefully.

Even if there is, it's such a big shipyard, with thousands of people, and not thousands of pieces of wood. How could they be so stupid as to let others slaughter them?

Therefore, Zong Shujun might know something, and what he said subconsciously should be true.

But the poison gas may not be real.

Zheng Chaoyang couldn't understand the other party's methods, so he could only take all the measures he could think of and passively defend himself.

The alert around the shipyard has been raised to the highest level.

Missiles, anti-aircraft guns and other weapons were deployed around the area to guard against various possibilities.

Even the patrols in the surrounding waters have been stepped up.

As for internal staff, the highest confidentiality regulations are implemented.

Even so, he was still worried.

As long as Zong Shujun's accomplices are not caught, he will not be at peace and this matter will not be over.

"I heard that Jinling also found a few people, all of them are from the Northern Alliance?"

Bai Ling asked softly. Zheng Chaoyang nodded, then shook his head, "It has been confirmed that the information they received came from the north."

“But it’s not given directly!”

Bai Ling frowned, "You mean, it was given by the south?"

"Yes! They are all involved in this action against us!"

"No wonder it's so fast."

Bai Ling sighed, this plan was layered with murderous intent at every step.

If Yang Xiaotao and his friends were not so lucky, they would have died long ago!
"It was also during this operation that the traitor was uncovered."

Speaking of this, Zheng Chaoyang was also shocked.

Who could have thought that it would drive a nail into my heart?
It has been so many years and I still haven't noticed it.

Really terrible.

"It stands to reason that when something unexpected happens during an operation, one should either hide and wait for an opportunity." "Or one should execute immediately."

"Now it seems that the other party should have chosen the former!"

Zheng Chaoyang took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I am most afraid of the former!"

Bai Ling frowned, "But if it's the former, why don't they do it?"

"The information we have received has shown that the other party has completed the infiltration and can act before alerting us."

"Just like Big Brother, we didn't have time to react."

When Bai Ling said this, Zheng Chaoyang came to his senses, turned around and squeezed Bai Ling's hand, "You mean, they are not ready?"

"I think so. Otherwise, the longer the night, the more dreams there are. Who can guarantee that there won't be any accidents?"

Zheng Chaoyang was silent for a moment, then nodded, "That makes sense."

"It's not that the other party doesn't want to take action, but that they can't do it!"

"Or rather, they are waiting too!"

Zheng Chaoyang suddenly felt that his mind was opened up!
Since the other party has nothing in his hand, why should he be so anxious!
"I'm going to interrogate Zong Shujun! I don't believe I can't pry his mouth open!"

After saying this, he walked out immediately without caring about his wife's contempt.

"Come back! Wait until I finish!"

Zheng Chaoyang stopped at the door, turned around and smiled awkwardly, "Wife, you talk, I'm listening!"

Bai Ling sat on a chair nearby and said, "You probably won't find out if you ask like this."

"It's even possible that Zong Shujun himself doesn't know the specific plan!"

Zheng Chaoyang frowned, "Not really!"

"What if it happens?"

Zheng Chaoyang fell silent again. The lack of rest over the past few days had made his brain a little rusty and seemed unable to move.

Then he looked at his wife and asked, "Wife, do you have any ideas?"

Bai Ling nodded and smiled, "I learned this from Director Yu!"

"This time Director Yu threw out a bait, and look how many fish he caught?"

"Not only that, but we also caught an old turtle!"

Zheng Chaoyang began to understand what Bai Ling meant.

Since the opponent's goal is to destroy the shipyard, and the purpose of destruction is to prevent the development of ships.

Whether it is them or the people behind them, they certainly don't want to see better and better ships being built.

Then use the development of ships as bait.

In this case, these people will definitely not let it go.

In other words, their superiors will not sit idly by.

As soon as they take action, they will be exposed.

This is opportunity.

"Wife, I'm going to the shipyard."

Zheng Chaoyang turned around and walked out again.

"return!"

Bai Ling's voice sounded again, and Zheng Chaoyang stopped immediately, turned around, and looked suspicious.

Bai Ling rolled her eyes and said, "Have you forgotten what day it is today?"

"today?"

"Oh~~~"

Zheng Chaoyang then remembered that today was Mid-Autumn Festival.

Hong Kong
Smith stood in front of the building, watching the passers-by.

Among them, most of them have oriental faces, speak oriental languages, and have festive expressions on their faces.

This added a gloom to his already bad mood.

Beside him, Wade and his men were protecting him.

Hong Kong is still quite chaotic nowadays, especially with gang members, who might rush out and start a gunfight.

If they were involved in this, they might end up like these scoundrels, and be found in the stinking ditch tomorrow.

"Sir, we should go now."

Wade reminded from the side while opening the car door.

Although it is a chartered plane, it is easy for something to go wrong if we stand here for too long.

"Wade, tell me, how did they do it?"

Smith did not get in the car, but stood there, like a piece of wood, and asked.

The voice had no ups and downs, but it gave people an air of decadence in old age.

Ever since he heard about the existence of such a thing as 'Palace Jade Liquor' and how it was touted as the gospel of men and the divine wine of China, he realized that this was the opponent's counterattack.

Just like the Plum Blossom Disinfectant in the past, it took advantage of the changes in the situation, rose up and broke the economic blockade from the outside world.

So he asked someone to buy two bottles.

And check it out yourself.

He didn't wake up until noon the next day.

Then I looked at the mess on the ground and thought of the madness of last night, feeling mixed feelings of sadness and joy.

The good news is that this health product called Palace Jade Liquor is really effective.

Sadly, this Imperial Jade Wine is really effective.

If for him personally, he can go back to his youth, no, it should be said that he can be stronger than his youth, this thing itself is worth being happy about.

From now on, he felt that he could not live without this medicinal wine.

But from a global perspective, he sincerely hopes that this wine is fake.

In that way, all their actions will become meaningful.

But now, listening to the discussions of the people around him and the scalpers raising the prices privately, he knew that his plan had failed.

Wade lowered his head after hearing this. He originally thought that everything was going smoothly and they could use the strength in their hands to limit the opponent's development momentum.

And this period of time has already produced results.

Even the Portuguese stood on their side, ready to act as vanguard dogs.

But now, the other party just took out something called "Palace Jade Wine", and the plan that they had been planning for so long and was about to succeed was shattered into pieces.

Not only those places in Southeast Asia that had been wavering before, but even the Portuguese who had been preparing to expel the Peninsula Hospital have now stopped.

In their eyes, as long as the benefits outweigh their losses, they will give up their prejudices.

In fact, Wade also knew that these Portuguese were unreliable.

Whether in terms of force or law, they are all traitors.

"Sir, it's time to go."

Wade had no way of answering Smith's question and could only remind him that he was leaving.

Hearing this, Smith lowered his head and sighed, then walked into the car.

When Wade was about to close the door, Smith suddenly said, "Wade, we haven't lost yet."

"Next, you and Jack need to keep an eye on this place."

"Be sure to keep an eye on this place."

Wade nodded solemnly, "Sir, please rest assured, we know what to do."

Smith then nodded, the car door closed, and the car roared away.

Wade waved his hand behind him, and when the car was out of sight, he took out a small bottle from his pocket, his face showing the confidence of a man.
