Chapter 81: Tacit understanding

Living room of Villa No. 212 in Huacun.

"Xiao Qi, why are you still bringing things?" Four Yewen looked at Xiao Qi and Tang Keming in from outside the door with a box in his hand.

Just as Xiaoqi was about to explain, Chen Miao came out of the kitchen and held a plate of freshly roasted fish.

"Xiao Qi is careful and knows that I like to smoke cigars from the 'Three-Leaf Crocodile' brand, so whenever I find out that I am out of stock, I will buy it for me." Chen Miao put the fish on the dining table and explained.

"Brother Sanshui, I didn't expect you to have this trick. This fish roast is really good. It smells like this smell is no worse than the chef of Cangzhou Hotel." Tang Keming was attracted by the braised fish on Chen Miao's table, walked over, took a sip of the fragrance, and his face was full of greed.

"Brother Sanshui likes to smoke cigars?" Four Yewen asked curiously.

"Well, I learned from my boss, Mr. John, who went to the Jockey Club, and I got used to it later." Chen Miao smiled and explained, took the cigar box from Xiaoqi, opened it casually and said, "I just happened to have stock. Xiaoqi came last time, probably because he knew I was about to be out of stock. You guys try one?"

One person gave one.

"This cigar tastes good. It doesn't taste good, but it tastes quite soft, but it's not too strong." Four Yewen also smokes cigars. Not to mention being an expert, but at least he understands it. He ignites, took a sip and commented.

"If you like it, take my box and let Xiaoqi buy it for me tomorrow." Chen Miao generously handed the whole box of cigars to Four Yewen.

"No, if I like to smoke, I just go out and buy it myself. You have been cut off from the goods, so you should keep it. A gentleman will not take advantage of others." Four Yewen refused.

Tang Keming took one and learned to smoke two times. He choked and tears fell down his cough, which made Chen Miao and Four Yewen laughed. He knew that he had never smoked a cigar at first glance. He smoked a cigar by smoking a cigarette. It would be strange if you didn't choke to death. (File)

"Keming, smoking a cigar is different from smoking. You are gentler, yes, that's it..." Four Yewen guided step by step.

"Well, it feels a little bit. The taste is pretty good. Can you give it a try?" Tang Keming tried to take a few sips under the guidance of Four Yewen, but it was not that choking.

"However, I'm still used to smoking this." Tang Keming pointed to the three cannons with a pack of tin paper on the coffee table.

"Hahaha..." Fourier laughed.

"Xiao Qi, come in and I'll give you the money." Chen Miao picked up the cigar box and greeted Xiao Qi. The brothers had to settle the score clearly.

"Yes." Xiaoqi agreed and followed Chen Miao into the study.

Chen Miao took out a stack of money from the study drawer and handed it to Xiaoqi: "Please pack the money."

"Why haven't Lao Ling come yet? I'm waiting for him alone now. I'm not active in eating. Why can he still be active?" Tang Keming, you, said in dissatisfaction in the living room outside.

Four Yewen smoked a cigar and said comfortably: "Don't be anxious, wait a little longer."

"This old Ling is slow every time. Xiao Qi has to go to work in a while." Tang Keming pointed at Xiao Qi and said, "If you are late and leave early, you will be deducted for your salary."

"I'll call Wu Tianlin here too, come here to have dinner together later." Chen Miao came out of the study and said to Tang Keming.

"Okay, it's good if someone is serving the game." Tang Keming laughed.

Wu Tianlin came one step earlier than Ling Zhijiang, and he was carrying a big watermelon and grapes. After all, it was better to be cheaper for students. He knew that he could not eat at the teacher's house without leaving any hand.

"Teacher, it's time for your family to buy a refrigerator. I know there is an Arctic Electrical Appliances Store on Sichuan Road. They are all imported from abroad. There are those with small volumes. In summer, put the watermelon in the refrigerator and then take it out to eat it. It's so cool." Wu Tianlin took the watermelon into the kitchen.

"That thing is so expensive. Besides, I don't often open fire at home. If I buy it, I don't need it at home, it's just a decoration and a waste of money." Chen Miao said.

"It smells so good, teacher, I didn't expect you to have this trick." He lifted up the braised pork stewed in the casserole, and a scent of meat came to his nose. Wu Tianlin was almost dripping his saliva into it.

"Please help me take the meat out, together with the casserole, be careful not to burn it." While cooking, Wu Tianlin said.

"Okay."

"Here, come, I'm Lao Ling..." Before the person arrived, Ling Zhijiang's loud voice had arrived.

"This old Ling is finally here." Tang Keming muttered.

"Oh, I can smell the fragrance from a distance. When did this headquarters change such a good cook?" Ling Zhijiang pushed the door and said with a sweat on his face.

This is the hottest time of the year, and even after midnight, the temperature is not low.

Four Yewen smiled and said, "Where is a change of cooks? It's the Sanshui brother who cooks by himself tonight."

"Is that so? I have to try my best at this." Ling Zhijiang looked surprised, and he had never heard that Chen Miao could cook.

"When I was alone, I was relatively lazy and didn't like to cook. I basically ate three meals a day outside. The kerosene stove at home was broken. It was rare for three brothers to enjoy the whole thing today. I also want to see if this craft is lost. If it is not delicious, the three brothers are not allowed to say it." Chen Miao came over with a plate of fried dishes.

"The Sanshui brothers made it by themselves, and it was full of sincerity. Even if it was not delicious, we would eat it all today!" Tang Keming said.

"Keming, this is what you said. If you can't finish it, you will have it all?" Fourier said.

"I only have to pack it. Don't snatch it from me then..."

...

After drinking and eating, the game will be held up.

"Sanshui, you said the food you cook is so delicious. What should I do if I can't eat it in the future?" Tang Keming was still a little unsatisfied.

"That's right, the braised pork is simply fat but not greasy. In comparison, the level of my house is far from that." Four Yewen complained.

"Then you should marry Brother Sanshui home to be a child?" Ling Zhijiang teased.

"That won't work. It's better to have fun than to have fun alone!" Four Yewen replied seriously.

"Ha ha……"

"Don't you think, as long as the three brothers like you, you can come over at any time, I'll do it. This is not a big deal." Chen Miao smiled and touched a card played by Ling Zhijiang. "When I didn't go to the Jockey Club to work, I had no other hobbies. Most of my time was spent studying food and drinking."

"Then we will come often in the future. What do you think, Lao Ling." Four Yewen touched Ling Zhijiang with his elbow.

Ling Zhijiang drank a little too much today, and his eyes were red, staring at the card, and agreed vaguely.

"Why is Miss Xu not here today?"

"She belongs to the night owl, sleeps at home during the day and goes out at night..." Chen Miao explained.

"I heard that Chongqing already knew that Mr. Wang was going to hold a conference and was preparing to carry out sabotage in secret. This time, an extremely powerful person was sent over. I wonder if it was true or false?" Four Yewen played a card and asked casually.

"There is such a thing. The telecommunications department has been monitoring the secret communication between Chongqing and the two departments lurking in Shanghai, but they have found that the password has been leaked and replaced the communication password, but we still intercepted some information." Tang Keming said.

"Do you have a specific action plan for the Military Control Commission?"

"This is not yet mastered. Most of them have stopped moving now, and the leaders have received the news and hid them as soon as possible. It is difficult to catch them now." Tang Keming said.

"Brother Sanshui, based on your understanding of them, where do you think they will hide?" Four Yewen suddenly looked up and asked Chen Miao.

"Their lower-level operation personnel are mainly composed of some past gang members and young students. These people can endure hardships and have no bad will. Some people are even fearless, but middle-level personnel are different. Most of them are greedy and afraid of death, and they cannot live a hard life. If we can cut off their source of funds, they will definitely be able to effectively dampen their morale." Chen Miao thought for a moment.

"Well, Brother Sanshui is very insightful in his analysis!" Tang Keming gave Chen Miao a thumbs up.

"By the way, Brother Tang, did you check Xia Yanbing later?" Chen Miao asked.

"I checked it. There was no problem with this guy's company's business and transactions. However, we found some of the situations in the bank's account flow." Tang Keming said, "Tianlin, haven't you reported these things to your teacher?"

"Not yet." Wu Tianlin sat aside to serve the four-person card game. Hearing Tang Keming's question, he hurriedly replied.

"You, there is a teacher here, but I don't know how to ask the teacher for advice. I don't know how to say you." Tang Keming complained, "It's true, if you have something to do in the future, I'll ask your teacher for advice."

"Yes, section chief, Tianlin remembers it."

Chen Miao understood that he could no longer ask any information about Xia Yanbing and Yin Zhiyun from Tang Keming, and he could never ask Wu Tianlin directly.

Because only when Wu Tianlin "ask him for advice" can he know, but if Wu Tianlin does not take the initiative to ask him for advice, he cannot take the initiative to ask.

Tang Keming, who looks careless and speaks honestly, is actually a meticulous person.

In one sentence, Chen Miao's road was blocked and there was nothing to say.

"East wind!"

"Haha, you are waiting for the Dongfeng, you are so lucky!" Ling Zhijiang pushed the card and laughed excitedly, "Give money, give money..."

"Hey, Old Fu, how can you fight the Dongfeng at this time? How dangerous?" Tang Keming complained to Four Yewen.

"How did I know that Lao Ling is just waiting for this card..."

"It's almost twelve o'clock, and I have to go to work tomorrow. Otherwise, I'll have to play around and leave?" Chen Miao pointed to the wall bell hanging on the wall.

"Okay, I'll just have another round to go home to sleep, and I'm sleepy, too." Four Yewen reached out and yawned.

...

After sending away the three of Four Yewen, Tang Keming and Ling Zhijiang, Chen Miao took a shower, changed into a clean pajamas, and returned to the study.

Close the door, lock it, and turn on the desk lamp on the desk.

I took the cigar box brought by Xiaoqi, put it on the desk, took out the cigars inside one by one, and observed under the light of the house.

Sure enough, he found that a cigar was a little abnormal. This was Xiaoqi's work, and only he could recognize it, because it was no different from those cigars in appearance, but there was a slight difference in weight. Only those who often smoked this cigar.

Take out a large white letter paper from the drawer, and a sharp paper cutting knife, gently cut a layer of paper outside the cigar, pour the tobacco leaves inside on the letter paper, and see a curly piece of paper inside.

It was the news that Zheng Jiayuan gave him.

Acting District Mayor Cao Lijun decided to be transferred back to Chongqing headquarters, but before going to Chongqing, he would execute the last order Dai Yunong gave him: sanctioning Wang Tianhuan.

The new district mayor is Chen Gongshu, who arrived in Shanghai this morning.

None of these news surprised Chen Miao. After all, it was mentioned before that he was mentally prepared, but the third news made him feel a little nervous.

When he was ordered to enter No. 76, only acting district mayor Cao Lijun, Zheng Jiayuan and traffic officer Wu Xin knew about it, but no one else knew about it.

The headquarters knows very little, and it may be limited to a few senior executives of the headquarters. The new district mayor Chen Gongshu didn't know either. Zheng Jiayuan meant that he did not intend to tell Chen Gongshu about this situation.

This is a kind of protection for him, but it will also bring him great danger.

Once Cao Lijun is transferred from Shanghai, he will be completely recognized by the Military Control Commission Shanghai District as a traitor who "rebels" and surrenders to the enemy. His name will definitely be very high on the sanctions list.

In other words, he may be eliminated as a "traitor" by the "colleagues" of the past Military Control Commission at any time.
