After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again
Chapter 53 Jiangcheng's Mission (1)
Tao Junle opened the door and turned to go upstairs without even glancing at Yang Jixia.
When Yang Jixia applied to the organization to allow Tong Jia to come for support, he also looked through Tong Jia's information over the years.
Knowing that the little beggar who delivered the letter for him had been following Tong Jia, when he saw that it was a little boy who opened the door, he guessed Tao Junle's identity.
As soon as the door opened, he raised his hand to touch Tao Junle's head, trying to get closer to him.
As a result, the other child didn't give him this opportunity at all.
He withdrew his hand awkwardly, closed the gate, and then followed Tao Junle into the house.
As soon as he entered the house, Tian Ma came out to greet him.
Mother Tian looked towards the courtyard gate and saw that it was closed. Only then did she relax when she saw that Yang Jixia was the only one there.
She asked, "Sir, if I injure that person today, will it affect our future operations?"
Yang Jixia shook his head and said soothingly, "It's okay. I accompanied Diao Yongting to the hospital. After the wound heals, it will take at most one summer for it to heal and nothing will be noticeable.
With me and my wife here, he won't bother you anymore.
Besides, thanks to you injuring him, the first meeting between my wife and him didn't end in a dull moment."
"Humph, it wasn't a dull moment, but it was incredibly awkward.
Have you arrived in Jiangcheng a long time ago and have you found someone to follow me for several days?
Why can't you come here openly during the day? Why do you have to be so sneaky at night? " Tong Jia, who was standing on the stairs and heard this, asked as she walked downstairs.
Tao Junle, who was following behind her, also had an expression as if things had gone wrong and he was blaming her for not notifying her in advance.
Yang Jixia said: "Diao Yongting came to Jiangcheng for a meeting this time and took a special government train.
What about me? I'm just someone who's been riding the special train with others. Do you think I have any say in this trip?
"Are you saying that Diao Yongting didn't let you come directly?" Tong Jia asked.
Yang Jixia nodded and replied, "Yes, he insisted... Let me make it clear in advance that these are his words, not mine, and they do not represent my personal opinion!
He said that there is no man who doesn't cheat, and no woman can stand loneliness.
Because the persona I have always created in front of him is that of someone who has been bullied by you and cannot raise his head, he wants to find someone to monitor you and see if you have done anything wrong. Once he catches hold of you, I can then regain my power as a husband.
We have been in Jiangcheng for three days, and he has had people monitor you for three days.
There are still things to deal with in Shanghai, so I didn't bring any other people with me this time.
In order to remind you not to reveal any flaws, I told him that I missed him and wanted to come and see him tonight.
As a result, he had to follow.
I was lingering at the door because I was looking for an opportunity to give you a signal.
But before I could come up with a solution, you discovered it, and everyone knows what happened next.
Actually, this was a lucky coincidence. Showing up like this is much better than waiting for him to complete his investigation before formally meeting him.
Giving him the impression that you're not someone to be trifled with actually helped my previous image stand out even more."
Tong Jia rolled her eyes at Yang Jixia and asked the question that concerned her most: "When are we going to Shanghai? When we get there, what do you need me to do?"
Yang Jixia looked around the house. Tian Ma understood and got up to check the yard carefully to make sure no one was eavesdropping. She walked to the door, nodded to Yang Jixia, and then stood outside.
Yang Jixia looked at Tao Junle and then at Tian Ma.
Tong Jia patted Tao Junle, and he took the initiative to change seats with Tian Ma.
At the dining table, Yang Jixia, Tong Jia and Tian Ma gathered together, whispering about what they were going to do after arriving in Shanghai. Although Tao Junle, who was standing at the door, couldn't hear some of the details clearly, he had roughly understood what needed to be done.
Diao Yongting came to Jiangcheng this time for three main purposes.
One is the open one, coming to Jiangcheng for a meeting.
The second was secretly instructed by the Shanghai Municipal Government to come and take over two batches of materials that needed to be transferred.
One batch was shipped out of China, and the other batch was shipped in from abroad.
As long as he can balance the relationships between Jiangcheng, Shanghai and overseas and successfully complete the transportation of these two batches of goods, he and his superiors can extract 30% of the profits.
Yang Jixia had no idea what was being shipped in from abroad, but he knew that what they were going to ship abroad were antique calligraphy and paintings from China.
Because on the first day of his arrival in Jiangcheng, Diao Yongting was too excited and drunk, and he once revealed to him that as long as this trip went well, he would be able to get sixty boxes of yellow croaker, ten boxes of ancient celebrity calligraphy and paintings, fifty boxes of opium and thirty boxes of cigars when he returned.
Yang Jixia and Tong Jia’s first task is to prevent these antiques and cultural relics from being shipped out of the country.
Yang Jixia said: "If possible, we will try our best to transport these items to the Soviet area. If it is too difficult, we must find the right people or a suitable place to safely transfer these national treasures."
"Are you just going to ignore the opium?" Tong Jia asked.
Since the calligraphy and paintings were the commission that Diao Yongting received on the ship from China, the opium and cigars must have been shipped in from outside.
While plundering culture, they are also using opium to erode the health of the Chinese people. Tong Jia believes that such things should not be allowed into the country.
Yang Jixia said: "The higher-ups also have plans for this.
First, we need to confirm what those things are. If they are indeed opium, then we should sink the ship directly, but not in Jiangcheng."
"I see. We just need to confirm what the things are in Jiangcheng, and then make a plan. We can sink the ship on the way to Shanghai, or after we arrive in Shanghai. Compared to transporting all the things on the other ship to the Soviet area, or finding a reliable person to entrust those national treasures, I think this task is much easier to accomplish." Tong Jia gave a pertinent evaluation.
Indeed, as long as the traces are cleaned up, simply destroying something is much easier than transferring it.
Tian Ma asked, "The encirclement and suppression is so intense now, it's definitely impossible to transport it to the Soviet area. Sir, you should find a reliable person or place in advance."
Yang Jixia nodded and said, "Other comrades in Shanghai are already looking for it. I hope they'll have found it by the time we return."
"What about the third one?" Tong Jia asked again.
"What third one?" After being interrupted, Yang Jixia could no longer remember where he was talking about.
Tong Jia said: "Didn't you say that Diao Yongting came to Jiangcheng with three missions this time?
One is an open meeting, one is secretly assisting in smuggling and taking kickbacks, and what is the other one?
Yang Jixia said, "This third one is also the most unforgivable. He colluded with the Fuso people to implement some plan in Jiangcheng."
"What plan?" Tong Jia asked.
Yang Jixia touched his nose and said a little embarrassedly: "I haven't found out yet."
"They're wary of you, but you can't blame them. I'll make some soup, and when it gets light, we'll go see him together.
I apologize, you guys chat, and hopefully we can find a way to get him to tell the truth." Tian's mother consoled and offered advice.
Yang Jixia said, "Actually...how should I put it? He was indeed wary of me at the beginning, but recently, he still trusts me very much.
He had said it several times before, and he had always envied families with many brothers and sisters.
Fathers and sons can fight together in battle, and brothers can fight tigers together.
He is the only one in his family and has always felt that he lacks trustworthy helpers.
I am his brother-in-law, and this brother-in-law is also a brother. No matter what he does now, he likes to take me with him.
He also wanted to inquire about the marriage of your younger sister Rong Xinzhi, because he wanted the three brothers-in-law to work together in the future.
He said that when choosing a brother-in-law, he doesn’t need to be from a high-class family, but he needs to be smart and able to get along with us.”
"Don't talk about your brother-in-law for now. Since he's not on guard against you, why don't you know what the plan is?" Tong Jia was a little confused.
Yang Jixia said, "My English is OK, but I'm just starting to learn Fusang Chinese. I can understand most of the text, but listening is... a bit difficult."
"That is to say, they are not on guard against you and have discussed this plan in front of you?" Tong Jia asked for confirmation.
Yang Jixia nodded and said, "Actually, that can't be considered as them not being on guard against me. I think this is also a test of me."
Tong Jia and Tian Ma both nodded.
Tian Ma said: "Sir, is it possible that he came to Jiangcheng this time without any plans related to the Fuso people, and he just said that on purpose to test your background?
Whether you are from an organization or a government.
As long as we know the conspiracy plan they are talking about and understand it, we will definitely find a way to sabotage it.
If I don't understand something, I will definitely try to find other ways to understand it.
If you ask too much, you will reveal your identity."
"That's indeed a possibility. So, on the way here from Shanghai, I never brought up this matter with Diao Yongting.
But I was also worried that this plan really existed, so after arriving in Jiangcheng, I followed him closely.
Tonight...given the situation tonight, if I don't come over, it would be unacceptable and would only arouse his suspicion.
So, whether there is any situation over there tonight, I can only go there tomorrow and figure out a solution."
"Tonight?" Tong Jia thought for a moment.
Then, he immediately stood up, grabbed the jar on the shelf behind the dining table and threw it to the ground, shouting, "Yang Jixia, you bastard, you haven't been home for months and years, and you finally come back once, but you're still calling out the names of other vixens. You ungrateful Chen Shimei, get out of here.
This is my aunt's home, it has nothing to do with you, get lost...
And you, I hit him and you were still blocking me.
If you are so on his side, then just move out with him and never come back to me.
My temple is small and cannot accommodate two of you big Buddhas."
While shouting, he drove Yang Jixia and Tao Junle out with a feather duster.
Tao Junle, who was suddenly kicked out of the house, was almost crying. If he hadn't seen Tong Jia's sign language to him at the moment the door was closed, he would really have drowned the yard with tears.
After knowing what Tong Jia asked him to do, Tao Junle, who was standing at the door, looked at Yang Jixia, who was still confused, and shook his head at him with a bad look.
Yang Jixia didn't understand, and Tao Junle felt a little dizzy from shaking his head.
Finally, he took out a notebook and pen and wrote: [Go to the hotel where you are staying.]
Seeing that Yang Jixia was still standing there, he wrote again: [I can understand Fusang dialect.]
Yang Jixia showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, and just as he was about to say something, a ball of paper was stuffed into his mouth.
Just as he was about to spit it out, he saw a notebook with the words "Swallow" written on it standing in front of him.
Knowing that he couldn't let others know that the child in front of him could understand Japanese, Yang Jixia didn't swallow the paper, but kept it in his mouth.
I originally wanted to tear the paper into pieces and flush it down the toilet after returning to the hotel, but the paper became softer and softer under the influence of my saliva and slowly stuck to my tongue.
Thinking that he would have to talk and say hello to people after entering the hotel, Yang Jixia simply swallowed the paper in his mouth.
Hearing Yang Jixia swallowing, Tao Junle's mouth corners slightly raised. He felt that he had won a game and had a good start, and he felt particularly happy.
When the two returned to the hotel, they happened to meet Diao Yongting and a man wearing wooden clogs and Japanese clothing entering the hotel.
There were four people, one in front and one behind, and there was no way to avoid them.
Almost from the moment Diao Yongting saw Yang Jixia appear, his eyes became particularly sharp, not at all like the cynical look he had at the gate of the courtyard.
But he still asked in a relatively calm tone: "Brother-in-law, they say that a short absence is better than a new marriage. I stopped you from seeing my eldest sister before, but you kept trying to find a way to see her.
Now that you've met, why don't you cherish this rare moment of love instead of running out in the middle of the night? "
"Oh..." Yang Jixia sighed, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
He looked at Diao Yongting, then at the Japanese people beside him.
Finally, he sighed and said, "Brother-in-law, you go ahead and do your thing. This matter of my brother-in-law is a small matter, so let's not talk about it. I'll take the child back to the room to wash up and go to bed."
"Hey, brother-in-law, we get along just like brothers, why are you hiding something from me?
As for Mr. Watanabe, you don't have to think too much about it. He doesn't understand you, and you don't understand him, so why are you afraid of being embarrassed? "Diao Yongting refused to let Yang Jixia leave until he got to the bottom of the matter.
Seeing that Yang Jixia still didn't say anything, he shifted his target to Tao Junle.
He said, "Little boy, my brother-in-law won't tell you, so you tell him."
Tao Junle acted frightened, put his hands on his chest and waved them continuously to show that he knew nothing.
Yang Jixia spoke up, "This child can't speak, so don't make things difficult for him.
Hey...didn't I just tell you tonight that I found a little lover to keep me company? On the way back, I thought about what happened with her.
After I got back, her was all on my mind. I didn't react for a moment and called your sister's name wrong.
A jar of pickles flew towards me. If the kid hadn't pushed me, I would have followed in your footsteps today. Not only would my face be disfigured, but I would probably have had my head split open.
Your sister felt that this child pushed me and was on my side, saying that he was a traitor and should be kicked out.
I really can't move on today. I'm afraid that if I say too much, I'll make more mistakes and scare the child, so I took him to the hotel first.
Tomorrow, when everyone has cleared their minds and your sister has calmed down, I will take the child back and have a good talk with her."
When Diao Yongting heard that Yang Jixia was kicked out by Tong Jia for this reason, his expression relaxed a little, but not completely.
