Quartermasters can also fight the devils

It was not until around nine o'clock the next morning that the officers, who had rested well, came out of the Hongyun Casino one after another and returned to the 102nd Division Headquarters to start today's work.

Seeing Zhang Wenwu sleepless all night, Zhao Dong sympathetically gave him two days off, asking him to have a good rest, and praised him for his reception work, which made everyone very satisfied. In addition, he asked him to change his military rank badge as soon as he returned to the division headquarters, and then report to the political department.

Well, Zhang Wenwu's military rank was promoted in the meeting yesterday afternoon, and it was also notified internally. However, Zhang Wenwu was busy arranging dinner and reception, and had no time to receive the new military rank. Besides, it would be useless to receive the military rank, as those guys in the political department were "eating, drinking and having fun" here.

Around ten o'clock, Liao Qian and others came out yawning. Zhang Wenwu hurriedly greeted him and told him that he would go to him to change his military rank and file for record after he had rested. Liao Qian naturally agreed and told Zhang Wenwu directly that if he didn't want to go to the Political Department, he could ask Wang, the officer beside him, to go to the Quartermaster Department to handle the procedures for him. Zhang Wenwu even said no, it would be better for him to go to the Political Department.

Kong Lina also left the casino at around ten o'clock. Before leaving, she kept reminding Zhang Wenwu to have a good rest.

After everyone left, Zhang Wenwu breathed a sigh of relief, and a strong sense of sleepiness immediately hit him. Holding on to his spirits, Zhang Wenwu found Mr. Xue Si and insisted on paying for all the expenses. This was his principle. Later, Mr. Xue Si couldn't stand him and agreed to take the money, but he had to pay at a 50% discount, otherwise Mr. Xue Si would not take a penny. Zhang Wenwu paid according to Mr. Xue Si's request.

"Deputy Director Zhang, you haven't rested all night yet. Why don't you go to the room on the third floor and have some rest?" Fourth Master Xue suggested, looking at Zhang Wenwu who looked exhausted.

Zhang Wenwu thought about it and agreed to Xue Siye's invitation. He really needed to rest now. Lei Dong was watching over the military supply department, so there was nothing important. So he used Xue Siye's phone to call Lei Dong and told him that he was resting at Hongyun Casino and that he could call here if there was anything urgent. This way, he wouldn't delay things and they wouldn't have to bother looking for him.

Without saying much to Mr. Xue Si, Zhang Wenwu went to the third floor and went directly to the best bedroom where Kong Lina stayed last night. He took off his clothes and fell asleep without taking a shower.

Chen Mingzhang was in a good mood last night. He reversed the two-night losing streak by himself and unexpectedly met the righteous Brother Hu. He had agreed to treat them, but when he woke up in the morning, the madam told him that Brother Hu had already paid the bill, which touched him deeply.

Now, Chen Mingzhang was sitting in the coffee shop on the first floor of Zhenjiang Hotel, waiting for the righteous Brother Hu to come over. Brother Hu's contact information was given by the madam, and he was asked to contact him after he woke up, and he wanted to treat him to a meal. How could this be possible? Brother Hu paid for all the expenses yesterday, so today he had to thank him and pay for all the expenses himself, otherwise he would look down on him.

Chen Minzhang touched his shiny hair with his hand, looked at the big gold watch on his wrist, and thought to himself that Brother Hu should be here soon, as it was almost noon.

Just as he was looking at his watch, the brother Hu he mentioned walked into the hotel lobby in a white shirt. He immediately saw Chen Mingzhang sitting in the coffee shop with shiny hair. This brother Hu was Hu San, a capable man under Master Xue Si, whose characteristic was to get information and find out the details of various people.

Hu San was a little confused. Chen Mingzhang was just a fool. Why did Xue Siye want to find out his background? After finding out his background, he wanted to contact him more often to find out his whereabouts and specific situation. Although he couldn't figure out what Xue Siye wanted to do, he would unconditionally do his best to obey Xue Siye's orders.

"Oh, Mr. Chen, I've kept you waiting for so long. Sorry, sorry." Hu San bowed loudly to Chen Mingzhang to apologize. But in his heart, he cursed Chen Mingzhang over and over again, "You idiot, you have your back to the door, how can you wait for someone like this? If it weren't for your shiny hair, who would have come in and seen you? You can't even wait for someone, you idiot."

Chen Mingzhang was startled by Hu San's voice. He turned around and found that it was his good brother Hu San. He immediately pointed to the sofa beside him and said, "Brother Hu, you are here. Come and sit down. What would you like to drink?"

Hu San was too lazy to be polite with this loser, but he still had a smile on his face. As soon as he sat down, he took out a cigarette and lit it for Chen Mingzhang: "Mr. Chen, what would you like to drink? I'll treat you, brother!"

Chen Mingzhang waved his hand to stop Hu San's action, and said with a smile: "Brother Hu, we have agreed today that I will pay for all the expenses. Don't fight with me. I am not short of money. I am also well-known in Shanghai."

Hu San was contemptuous in his heart. He was still a little famous in Shanghai. What kind of good reputation is that? He quickly said politely: "Okay, listen to Master Chen. Brother, I also know that Master Chen is a big businessman. These small amounts of money are really nothing to Master Chen."

As Chen Mingzhang listened to Hu San's words, his inner vanity was greatly satisfied. The more he looked at Hu San, the more he felt that Hu San was simply his confidant.

"Mr. Chen, you are a big shot from Shanghai, and you do big business. If you have the chance, please take care of me, your brother." Hu San looked at Chen Mingzhang, who had a smug look on his face, and continued to flatter him.

"Okay, okay. The reason I came to Zhenjiang this time is to rent a house suitable for opening a clinic. Brother Hu is a local, so why don't you let Brother Hu do this?" Chen Mingzhang was a little flattered by the flattery. Thinking that Hu San was a local, finding a house was really suitable for him. This way, he could just wait comfortably for Hu San to find a house.

"Well, Mr. Chen, there is no problem in finding a house, but what kind of house do you need? Do you have any requirements?" Hu San asked, pretending to be happy.

When it comes to the house, Chen Mingzhang said in a serious tone: "The requirement is that it is slightly bigger, preferably on the street, a three-story building will be fine."

"Okay, no problem, Mr. Chen. But if you do that, the rent for a house facing the street won't be cheap, and you might lose some money at the beginning of running a clinic." Hu San reminded him seemingly unintentionally.

Chen Mingzhang curled his lips, looked around, and then approached Hu San and whispered, "It's okay. The Japanese don't plan to make money from this clinic. We don't need to worry about whether it makes a loss or not."

Hu San showed joy on the surface, and asked happily: "Is there such a thing? Doing business without caring about whether you make a profit or a loss? The Japanese are really generous." At this time, Hu San suddenly understood why he had to keep an eye on this piece of trash. It turned out that this piece of trash was working for the Japanese.

"Well, don't worry about that, Brother Hu. Don't worry, as long as you get the house issue done, I promise you'll make money." Chen Mingzhang took a puff of his cigarette complacently and said to Hu San.

Hu San flattered Chen Mingzhang again, then took him to dinner, and the two of them walked towards the restaurant arm in arm, looking like they had a very good relationship.

Zhang Wenwu slept until about five in the afternoon, mainly because he hadn't eaten all day and woke up hungry. After a quick wash, Zhang Wenwu went downstairs to find a place to eat something. After eating, he would come back to sleep to avoid jet lag.

After telling the casino staff that he would be back to rest soon and not to clean the room, Zhang Wenwu walked out of the casino and looked for a place to eat on the street.

Zhenjiang at this time was the capital of Jiangsu Province and an important stop on the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway. The city was still quite prosperous, with traditional delicacies and snacks as well as trendy Western food. The Hongyun Casino was in a prosperous area, so you didn't have to walk far to find many places to eat.

Zhang Wenwu passed by a western restaurant and thought that he had not eaten western food for a long time, so he walked in. Fortunately, Kong Lina won a lot of money playing cards last night, and later gave all the capital to Zhang Wenwu. The winnings were divided equally between them, so there was still enough money for a big western meal.

It was dinner time and there were quite a few people dining in the western restaurant, including some foreigners. It seemed that the western food in this restaurant was quite authentic. At least in terms of decoration, it was very good.

Led by the waiter, Zhang Wenwu sat at a table against the wall. He was alone anyway, so it didn't matter where he sat. After ordering the food, Zhang Wenwu habitually looked at the guests around him to see if there was any "TV series" he could watch.

Well, I will eat in this western restaurant more often in the future. There is a very beautiful lady sitting at the table in front of me on the left, eating. I was in a hurry when I came in just now and didn’t look carefully. This beautiful lady was sitting with her back to the door, so I didn’t see her. I will have to tip the waiter who showed me to the seat later. The seat arranged for me is very good, I must tip her.

Zhang Wenwu secretly observed her. This beautiful woman had long hair and wore a white short-sleeved dress and white high heels. Her oval face was matched with delicate and elegant features. The proportions were quite coordinated. She was probably taller than Kong Lina, but she felt a little cold. Hm, the aloof and cool queen type. Zhang Wenwu gave her an evaluation in his mind.

Liu Qiqian was eating the steak in front of her, but she was thinking: Who is the officer in uniform across from her? He kept stealing glances at her. Is he from the 102nd Division? He is a lieutenant officer who came to eat Western food. Judging from the food he ordered, he must be someone who eats Western food frequently and is very particular about it. His military salary should not be able to afford to eat Western food so often. There must be something wrong with this officer. If that's the case, I have to keep an eye on him.
