The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

"That's right, Hong Kong is so close to where you are, it would be very convenient to arrange some personnel!"

Dunn smiled.

Liu Liyuan keenly noticed that Dunn seemed to be in a bad mood, although he was smiling.

But he could roughly guess what Dunn was worried about.

"Mr. Du, are you worried that you will be sent to the battlefield?"

Dunn glanced at Liu Liyuan. He didn't expect that the other party had guessed his thoughts so quickly.

What Dunn didn't know was that Liu Liyuan also had a general idea of ​​what he had been doing when he was away from Hong Kong for two months.

Bai Jianmin had already placed people in Dunn's smuggling team before, so after Dunn opened the smuggling route of the Red Empire.

His itinerary is basically not transparent in mainland China.

Considering the mission that Bai Jianming went out to do, what was Dunn doing in the Red Empire at that time? Basically, it can be said that it is clear at a glance.

Extending to the current situation, Liu Liyuan felt that Dunn was also worried that he would be sent to the battlefield.

After all, Dunn speaks Chinese better than native Chinese people.

“Sometimes I really hate myself for being able to speak Chinese!”

After a long sigh, Dunn did not hide anything from Liu Liyuan.

But it is impossible that he can't speak Chinese, after all, he was a Chinese before he traveled through time.

In fact, what he wanted to say was that he didn't want to reveal the secret that he could speak Chinese.

Now Dunn really regrets his high profile during his time stationed in Japan.

In these turbulent times, knowing so many foreign languages ​​may not be a good thing.

Especially when you are sitting in the central position.

If I had chosen to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I wouldn't have had so many worries.

However, if I go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I am afraid I will not have any chance to get as much money as I have now.

All we can say is that risks and opportunities always coexist.

"Mr. Du, you don't have to worry so much. As a CIA agent, you won't be sent to a dangerous place even if you go to the battlefield!"

Dunn did not comment on Liu Liyuan's consolation.

Before the war on the peninsula entered a stalemate, Dunn would feel a strong sense of insecurity whenever he was sent to the front line.

Even if he was not sent to the front line, Dunn would not feel safe as long as he was close to the front line.

So even if they were captured by the Volunteer Army, their lives would not be too bad. People of that era did not know that the mainland army treated prisoners well, but Dunn knew it.

But once he got to the battlefield, Dunn could not guarantee that he would be captured.

Even if he died on the battlefield, Dunn was not afraid.

With the existence of a cheat code, once you die, you can automatically return to the save file at least 5 hours ago.

But what Dunn feared most was that if things really came to that, he would pick up a gun and be forced to fight against the volunteers.

That was the last thing Dunn wanted to see.

If the time comes to attack himself or his ancestors, Dunn really can't do it, although Dunn is now a genuine handsome Chinese.

If I don't fight, it would be hard to explain if people around me saw me.

So what Dunn needs to do is to avoid going to the battlefield in the near future and find ways to avoid it.

When the war reaches the stalemate stage, it doesn't matter. Of course, everyone can consider going to the front line to perform tasks. As long as you pay attention to the key time points of several battles and don't appear on the front battlefield, it really doesn't matter.

You have to know that during this period of time Dunn knew that Frank Noll, the reporter who would report on the famous Bitong Prisoner of War Olympics in the future, would be captured in the near future.

It was this time of capture that gave him the opportunity to participate in the unique Prisoner of War Olympics.

But this guy was really courting death. He got a military uniform and related documents when he went to the battlefield.

After being caught, he tried to argue that he was a civilian, but the volunteers did not buy it.

However, this also served as a warning to Dunn. If he was sent to the front line at this time, he must not do anything dangerous and just go there in his current capacity as the boss of the Hong Kong Metropolitan News.

Don't do too many unnecessary things. If something really goes wrong, you won't be able to explain it.

"Speaking of this, I am a little curious! Mr. Deng, where did you learn Chinese painting? You speak it so well. It seems that even in China, there are many people who can't speak Chinese as well as you!"

During this era, the newly founded mainland China had not yet promoted Mandarin.

What Dunn said is that although Mandarin is mixed with some dialects from North China, it is normal in this era.

However, compared with people from some remote areas and a few southern areas in mainland China, Dunn speaks Chinese better than them.

Even Liu Liyuan in front of him spoke with a strong southern dialect.

When Dunn communicated with him, he still couldn't understand some of the words and needed to confirm them repeatedly.

Liu Liyuan could understand almost everything Dunn said and there was no communication barrier.

"My family lived close to the Chinese community when I was young! And there were several Chinese classmates in my middle school! I have some talent in languages, and I learned to speak after communicating with them more!

Later, I learned how to write Chinese characters, and basically I became proficient in Chinese!"

Dunn said shamelessly.

As for the rest, it’s really hard to explain the fact that I can speak Chinese.

This is the only way I can deal with Liu Liyuan in front of me.

In other words, there are relatively few beautiful Chinese people of this era who can speak Chinese. Otherwise, if you listen more often, you can tell that Dunn's Chinese level is obviously much higher than the other foreign languages ​​he knows.

Fortunately, Liu Liyuan just asked casually, and he seemed to be willing to accept any explanation Dunn gave.

Unless the reason Dunn gave was too outrageous.

Considering Deng Enhui's background in 13 languages, the explanation he gave now seems reasonable.

Liu Liyuan didn't dwell too much on this issue.

Changed the subject first.

“I just received news from above that we have found a suitable port in Sarawak where we can do the smuggling business in the future!

It’s just that the frequency of shipments may not be as high as before, after all, our shipping capabilities are limited!”

Liu Liyuan said with some regret.

In the past, smuggling was done by Dunn sending ships to deliver goods to the door, and then leaving after being loaded with goods from the mainland.

Now that the mainland has officially intervened in the war on the peninsula, business between the two sides will definitely be temporarily suspended.

Dunn had previously told Liu Liyuan to find a suitable place in Southeast Asia to conduct the transaction in order to avoid the United States' spies in East Asia.

Although Sarawak is also controlled by the British, compared with Hong Kong, Sarawak certainly does not receive as much attention.

Sarawak is located on the island of Kalimantan in Southeast Asia. In the future, this area will belong to Malaysia.

Malaysia is not independent yet and is still under the control of the British.

Dunn was not sure about the exact time of Malaysia's independence, but it was definitely after the war on the peninsula.

"It's better to have business than no business!"

Dunn was quite open-minded about this, because he had already planned to completely cut off ties with the mainland.

It is very good to have such a place for trading now. At least there will be business to be done in the future.

"It's fine if the frequency of transporting goods is lower! After this storm is over, we will see if we can move the transaction location to Hong Kong. This way it will be much more convenient for you!"

In fact, Dunn was just saying that the possibility of moving the transaction location to Hong Kong in the future is very small.

Although the British Empire's policies are flexible and changeable, even if it goes to war with China in the future, it will not affect their business in Hong Kong and the mainland at all.

However, if it were a handsome Chinese like Dunn, it would not be so convenient to do this kind of business. Not to mention, he really could not fully control the agents under him.

Once discovered, Dunn would likely be in an irretrievable situation.

If the British discovered this, they would probably betray Dunn immediately.

In the future, the smuggling location can be moved to Hong Kong.

The scale will definitely not be too large.

Liu Liyuan's eyes were also a little dim, he also understood that this possibility would definitely not be too high.

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

Liu Liyuan and Dunn immediately stopped communicating out of vigilance.

When the man sat down at his desk, Liu Liyuan came to the door and opened it.

Rei came in with a cup of coffee.

She was surprised when she saw Liu Liyuan was there too.

"Mr. Liu is here too! If I had known, I would have prepared an extra cup of coffee!"

Rui Yi immediately showed an apologetic look on his face.

"It's okay, I just came to Mr. Du to report some situations! Mainly, some urgent situations have occurred, and the front page headline of tomorrow's newspaper will be changed!"

Liu Liyuan looked helpless.

Then he set his sights on Dunn.

"Then sir, I will leave first!"

After Dunn nodded, Liu Liyuan left the office and closed the door.

It’s almost time to get off work!

Usually at this time, Rui Yi would come to see Dunn in advance, and when it was time to get off work, he would leave the newspaper office with Dunn and go back to his residence.

Rui placed the coffee on Dunn's desk and glanced at the sample copy of tomorrow's newspaper on Dunn's desk.

After living in Hong Kong for such a long time, Wei Yi still finds it difficult to adapt, mainly because most of the lower-class people in Hong Kong speak Cantonese.

Although there are many immigrants from inland areas, relatively speaking, there are more people who speak Cantonese, because even among these inland immigrants, a considerable number of them are from Guangdong.

But Rui Yi recognizes all the Chinese characters.

Soon she was attracted by the front-page headlines of the sample magazine.
