Double Agent Saga

449、Night talk

Zuo Shaoqing immediately saw it and understood it.What Yu Zhidao thought of at this time was her real identity.From what he meant, he believed that she was a "Communist", not a "Guo".She was grateful that he was able to hold his own and not say it.

In the evening, with a long whistle, the cargo ship "Shuchuan" slowly left the pier and sailed eastward out of Victoria Bay.On the sea, ships of all sizes shuttled back and forth. "Shuchuan" sounded its whistle from time to time.

Once the freighter sets sail, the crew has nothing to do.They all gathered in the cabin below to drink tea and play cards.

Zuo Shaoqing stood on the side of the boat, looking at the setting sun in the west, letting the sea breeze blow her long windbreaker.She felt very relaxed, even a little comfortable.She feels that if Yu Zhidao and Feng Dun's business can start, it will help the domestic economic construction to some extent.So, she also made a little contribution to the country.

Yu Zhidao and Yang Zhi walked out of the cockpit and came to the side of the ship, watching the sea view with Zuo Shaoqing.

Yu Zhidao felt a little emotional in his heart, and said softly, "I finally took the first step."

Zuo Shaoqing asked: "Boss Yu, how long will this trip take?"

He said: "About fifteen hours. It depends on the wind. I estimate that we will arrive in Keelung at nine or ten tomorrow morning. Let's go and see where you live."

Zuo Shaoqing followed Yu Zhidao and walked down the gangway.The gangway is steep and the corridors are narrow.They turned a corner, and Yu Zhidao pushed open a small hatch.

He said: "There are two cabins on this boat, which used to be reserved for cargo representatives. How about you?"

Zuo Shaoqing entered the guest room and took a look.The room is small with two narrow beds.There is a fixed small table between the two beds.The guest room is very simple, the walls have turned yellow, and there is a coquettish movie poster posted on it.Zuo Shaoqing felt that it was very good to have such a guest room on this ship.

"Boss Yu, where do you live?" Zuo Shaoqing turned around and asked Yu Zhi.

"It's right next door to you. Yang Zhi and I. You live alone." He said with a faint smile.

Zuo Shaoqing looked at him attentively.Seeing that he didn't mean anything bad.She thought, his mind is all on business, what a weirdo.

Yu Zhidao turned around and said, "Yang Zhi, bring our dinner and eat it at Zuo Shaoqing's place." He turned to Zuo Shaoqing and said, "There are also meals in the restaurant on board, but it won't suit your taste. I Bring some."

After Yang Zhi went out for a while, he brought in a large cardboard box and put it on the stool by the door.He turned around and said, "I don't know what the young team leader likes to eat, but Boss Yu has prepared a lot of things."

Zuo Shaoqing looked into the box and was also surprised.It is filled with all kinds of food, basically western food.There were also two bottles of wine and some glasses and plates.

Seeing Yang Zhi clumsily handling the food, she rolled up her sleeves and said, "Let me do it."

She washed her hands by the sink.First take out a bag of roast chicken, take it apart, and put it on a plate.Cut a few slices of red sausage with a dining knife.There is also sliced ​​pastrami in the oil paper bag, which is also stacked on the plate.

She looked at Yu Zhidao and said, "Aren't these almost enough?"

Yu Zhidao said with a smile, "I want to drink some wine tonight to celebrate. Let's have a few more."

So Zuo Shaoqing picked out a can of green bamboo shoots and a can of fruit, handed them to Yang Zhi, and said, "Open these two cans." She handed the bottle to Yu Zhi, "Open the bottle. Do it."

In a few minutes, they were ready for dinner.

Zuo Shaoqing washed his hands, poured some wine into everyone's glasses, and said, "Boss Yu, shall we start?"

Yu Zhidao picked up the wine glass, looked at Zuo Shaoqing and said, "Young Master Zuo, this glass is for you. You have the greatest credit for us being able to get on this boat today. Young Master Zuo, thank you for helping me. Come on, Touch it."

Zuo Shaoqing clinked glasses with him, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Boss Yu, you have helped me before. Let's even it out. Don't say whether you can help me or not, thank you very much."

Yu Zhidao nodded, "Okay, then we're even." He turned to Yang Zhi and said, "You eat yours. Shaoqing and I want to drink, so eat slowly. You don't have to wait for us."

Yang Zhi is very knowledgeable.He cut two large slices of bread, sandwiched some chicken and lettuce, took a big bite and said: "Boss, you and the young team leader eat slowly, I watched them play cards." He left the room while speaking.

There was a moment of silence in the cabin.Zuo Shaoqing and Yu Zhidao both sipped wine and looked at each other.

Zuo Shaoqing asked: "How long are we going to stay in Keelung?"

Yu Zhidao nodded and said, "It's like this. Let's go to Keelung tomorrow morning, and then we will unload and load the goods. This is the first time for me to do this kind of business, so I have to keep an eye on it all the time. It can be regarded as learning freight. I expect , the cargo can be loaded in the morning of the day after tomorrow. Around noon, the ship is ready to sail back to Hong Kong. During this time, are you waiting on the ship, or are you going back to Taipei?"

Zuo Shaoqing thought for a while and said, "I want to go back to Taipei." She looked at Yu Zhidao's gloomy face, and smiled and said, "Boss Yu, please don't mind. My main purpose is not to visit Ye Gongjin. I just want to see if my 'Ke Nan' room is still there. I also want to thank you for my 'Ke Nan' room."

"Look, look, we agreed. We've evened it out, don't say any more words of thanks."

"Yes, you are right. Besides, don't you know Ye Gongjin? He is much more unlucky than you."

"Man, there is a definite number in this life. He has it, and so do I."

"Boss Yu, do you have a fixed number? What is it? Tell me." Zuo Shaoqing hurriedly changed the subject.

Yu Zhidao drank the wine slowly, took a piece of chicken and chewed it in his mouth, his expression became a little serious.

He said slowly: "The bastards in Taipei have brought disaster to the country and the people! There is no way to blame them! They have more than 300 million troops, but they lost the entire mainland in only three years! They lost it so fucking badly." Hurry up! They only intrigue in the officialdom and fight for power! I hate them! Let me tell you, I hated them since the beginning of the War of Resistance!"

Zuo Shaoqing looked at him quietly without speaking.

"However," he smiled darkly, "to be honest, I don't like the CCP either. In some places, I admire them, such as tenacity. In 1, they were almost wiped out. There are less than [-] troops left that can fight. But they all survived. I really admire them. But there are some things that I don't like. For example, their attitude towards property, they emphasize communism. "

Zuo Shaoqing immediately understood that Yu Zhidao's attitude towards the CCP was mainly formed during the Red Army period.But she doesn't want to explain.For people like Zhidao, there is actually nothing to explain.

"In history," Yu Zhidao said quietly, sipping his wine, "they have killed many of their own people. They even killed in batches, killing at the slightest suspicion! They are almost the same as the Soviets. Such a situation , It's really disturbing. I don't know if they will be like this in the future. So, I don't like them. But, Young Master Zuo, I think you also understand that life always has a goal, doesn't it? Otherwise, just So sad."

"So, Boss Yu, what is your goal in life?" Zuo Shaoqing asked with a smile.

"I can only choose to make money." He didn't seem to be joking at this time.Just drinking wine, looking at the darkening sky outside the porthole, "Now, my wife and daughter are in the United States. I managed to get them to the United States. So, I have to earn money for them. Wait until about the same time , I will go too. My goal in life now is to make money. Do you understand?"

Zuo Shaoqing nodded, "I can understand. For the sake of the family, wife and children, this is what it should be. Boss Yu, this is the first time I've heard you talk about your wife. She..." She didn't know how to ask.However, such a topic still made her feel a little easier.

Yu Zhidao smiled slightly, still looking out the porthole.

He said softly: "In [-], I was a quartermaster of Pang Bingxun's Third Army in the Fifth War Zone. I was a lieutenant colonel at that time, and I was a small one. The division's attack on Linyi. The troops suffered a lot of casualties, ammunition was in short supply, and it was almost impossible to supply. That day, I entered the city in a cart full of ammunition. It was a long cart, the kind drawn by horses .My condition at the time was very bad. Before that, I almost rushed to transport ammunition in the flames of war. I was covered in mud on my face, like a clay figurine. The military uniform was also torn and my hat was lost. I have to give The troops in the city are sending ammunition."

Yu Zhidao smiled and looked back at Zuo Shaoqing, "When I transported ammunition into the city, many local people in Linyi welcomed us on the street and shouted to us. At that time, I noticed a female student, very young A very pure female student. She was wearing a white top, a black skirt, and had short hair. She kept staring at me, walking behind the crowd. I, for some reason, also kept staring at her. Can't move. Just like that, I sat on the cart and walked. She walked along the street, behind the crowd. She stared at me, and I stared at her. Later, she became my wife .”

Zuo Shaoqing's face was full of smiles.Such adventures are always touching.She said: "That's great. Boss Yu, today I finally discovered another side of you, a very warm and touching side. You love her very much."

Yu Zhidao showed a rare gentle smile, "Of course. We haven't blushed in all these years. Zuo Shao, I don't know what you think of me, but I don't really care what you think of me. My self-evaluation is , I'm basically a good guy. How about you?"
