Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 88: Admiring the Strong Again

"Brother Zhen, you are here. Thanks to your food, the children have eaten well these two days."

Lin Ze nodded. "Well, we still have to find a way to get some cotton clothes. It's not too cold now. In a few days, the clothes the children are wearing may not last through the winter."

Tang Wan'er lowered her head in sorrow.

After a while, she looked up and asked, "Brother Zhen, you often walk on the street. I want to ask you, have you heard anything about Chief Lin of the East Gate?"

When Lin Ze heard this, he wondered what was going on. Did this brainless female thief still have feelings for him?

Is he planning to steal from me, or is he looking for revenge on me?

"I have heard of him, but he is no longer a patrol captain."

Unexpectedly, Tang Wan'er was shocked and asked anxiously, "He is not in Peking anymore?"

"He was promoted to deputy director, so impressive."

Tang Wan'er lowered her eyebrows, pinched the corner of her clothes, and whispered: "I asked for others, have you heard that Director Lin got married..."

Lin Ze was stunned.

"I have never heard of that."

Tang Wan'er's expression was gloomy.

Somehow, ever since she was tortured by that man and then let him go, Tang Wan'er could not forget that man.

It's okay during the day because I have to take care of food and drink for these children, but at night I can't help tossing and turning.

When will days like this end!

But judging from the man's expression, he didn't like me. Otherwise, when he was being tortured that day...

Months of mental and physical exhaustion had left her exhausted, and when she wanted to find someone to rely on, that person's figure would always occupy her mind.

Well, you admire the strong again!

Tang Wan'er looked gloomy for a long time before she recovered and said, "Brother Zhen, what brings you here today?"

Lin Ze nodded. "I was thinking, you have a few half-grown children here, you can find something for them to do. Come to think of it, this matter is somewhat related to Director Lin you just mentioned."

Tang Wan'er's eyes lit up, "Is it related to him?"

"I have a friend who works for Director Lin. You know, Director Lin is not only successful in his career, but also has many ways to make money. I heard that he is short of manpower there. Why don't I pick one or two to recommend to him? If they do a good job, then the rest of the kids will have a way to make a living."

Tang Wan'er thought to herself, that man is indeed a capable person.

She couldn't help but imagine what would have happened if the Japanese hadn't come, if her father hadn't died.

He is a young and handsome patrol captain, and she is a chivalrous woman. The two...

"Miss Tang?"

Tang Wan'er, who was completely in love, woke up after hearing this, wiped her tears, and said with a forced smile: "Brother Zhen, what you said is a foolproof method. Just decide which child is suitable and give your instructions."

Lin Ze naturally chose Niu Saner and asked Tang Waner to tell the boy to go to the East Gate Patrol Station to find Director Lin.

After saying this, he left a few dollars and asked Tang Wan'er to buy some thick clothes for the young and weak children.

......

At noon, the wind started to blow outside, so Lin Ze simply ate in the patrol station.

There happened to be a man outside selling pig heads with a small red box on his back. He was stopped by someone and asked to cut half a pound of pig heads and half a pound of pig livers.

People in Peking like to eat pig heads, especially those who like to drink, who cannot live without it.

There are even three schools of people selling pig head meat. The first class is the one carrying a small red box. Their meat is cooked delicately, with fat parts that are crispy and lean parts that are glutinous. After being braised, it is smoked with small yellow croaker, fir wood and granulated sugar.

The white counters are not as good, they don't use so many seasonings, and in addition to pig heads, they mostly sell pig lungs, large intestines and other offal. These offal will be good things in the future, but there are not many ways to process them now, and they always have a strange smell and are not delicious.

The third group is the meat cart. They push a big meat cart full of minced meat. You can’t tell what part of the meat it is. Anyway, it’s cheap, so just eat it without knowing what you are eating.

He wrapped half a pound of pork liver and half a pound of fried dough sticks in oil paper, and then found a patrolman and asked him to buy four ounces of Zhigu Shao, a sorghum liquor produced in Tianjin with a strong flavor.

After putting the wine in the wine jug, there was naturally a sharp-eyed patrolman below who poured hot water from the kettle to warm the wine for Lin Ze.

The patrolmen who came back to rest downstairs were also eating, and their meals were simpler.

The steamed bread made of mixed flour brought from home was dark and shiny. Some families were well-off or their wives loved them so they brought cornmeal steamed bread.

Everyone sat around the stove, put the steamed bread on the stove to bake, and then got tea leaves from somewhere and made a bowl of tea.

Eat some steamed bread with pickled vegetables and drink some tea from time to time, and that’s it for a meal.

They were young and unmarried, had money freely available, and were willing to eat and drink. Seeing that the director had bought the pork head, they could not help but pool their money to buy some, and then sent someone out against the wind to buy freshly-made sesame cakes, and ate the pork head wrapped in the sesame cakes.

He also remembers to respect the elderly and love the young, and greets the elderly patrolmen.

"Please have some of this."

"Try two pieces."

It was quite a joyful occasion.

Everyone is content. Only by following Director Lin can they live such a life. Even though those old patrol officers have to eat steamed buns, they can support their families!

Just based on this point, he surpasses most people in Peking!

Everyone was eating and chatting downstairs when a young man came in from outside. He was wearing tattered clothes and was shivering with cold when the wind blew.

He came in and swore a thousand, then turned around and bowed, "Gentlemen, is Director Lin here?"

Since Wang Xiaoshou was not there, Xie Quan stood up and asked, "What do you want to see the director for?"

The young man rang again, "Mr. Zhen asked me to come here, saying that the director had an errand for me. Please tell the director, thank you."

Xie Quan muttered in his heart, what is this real gentleman and fake gentleman, I have never heard of such a person!

However, the boy's words were very convincing, so he went up and passed the message.

When Lin Ze heard this, he was surprised: Oh, you’re here already?

"Let him come up."

Xie Quan followed the order and went downstairs, saying to the boy, "Come, I'll take you upstairs."

Xie Quan took him upstairs. Lin Ze had already drunk two taels of wine. Xie Quan picked up his teapot and replaced it with a hot one before going downstairs.

"Did Lao Zhen ask you to come? What's your name?"

Although Niu Saner was born into a banner family and had some family education, his family had fallen into poverty when he was still young. He had never seen such a person before and was afraid at the moment, but he still plucked up his courage, thinking that he must not show his cowardice.

"To answer your question, it was Mr. Zhen who asked me to come here. I don't have a real name, so my name is Niu San'er."

Lin Ze nodded, "Okay, you can work for me from now on."

He planned to let Niu Saner gain some experience in the black market first, so that he could observe his character more carefully.

He opened the door and called out to Xie Quan, "Xie Quan'er! Xie Quan'er!"

"Hey, Director, what do you want?"

"Give this kid some food, give him a bath and change his clothes, and let him serve as my personal attendant for a few days!"
