Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

A train from Yangcheng to Jinan passed through Jiaozhou. The second to last car of the train was a soft sleeper car. Nowadays, you have to be a cadre at the department level or above to ride in a soft sleeper car. Therefore, the soft sleeper car was very empty, with almost no passengers.

The attendant who managed the soft sleeper compartment was a young man in his 20s. He was sitting by the corridor door of the compartment, dozing off little by little.

In the No. 4 soft sleeper car, with her back to the door, sat a woman in her twenties with big wavy hair and a dress. She held a small mirror in one hand and lipstick in the other.

She was the only passenger in the entire carriage. She occasionally glanced out the window when suddenly, there was a gentle knock on the door: three long and two short, followed by a pause of three seconds and then two short and three long again.

The woman stood up, straightened her dress, and opened the door of the soft sleeper. Standing outside the door was a man in his 30s, dressed as a flight attendant, with a pair of glasses on his slit face.

He said politely,

"Ma'am, please show me your ticket,"

The woman arrogantly took a small bag from the table, opened it with a click, and took out a ticket and a letter of introduction from it. She raised her orchid finger and handed the ticket and letter of introduction to the conductor.

The flight attendant pretended to look at it, and when he handed it back, there was also a white rose. He whispered,

"Ms. White Rose, after you get off the bus, wear this flower on your chest. As agreed, someone will come to pick you up. The code is, Miss, are you here to see a play? Ms. White, your answer is, I heard that the Jiaozhou Theater is performing Water Margin today, I came to broaden my horizons. The other party said, "There are 36 Tiangang on the top, and you are picking up 72 Disha on the bottom."

Ms. Bai, do you remember this?"

The woman nodded, and the steward saluted with a smile, and went to another compartment. The woman stood in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside, and touched her hair with her right hand.

A man in a white short-sleeved shirt walked out of the first box. He had a slicked-back hair and hummed a little tune as he passed by the woman. As the two passed by, the woman whispered quickly,

"Nail this flight attendant to death." After saying that, he turned around and went back to the compartment. The man hummed a little tune, walked past the flight attendant, opened the corridor door, and woke up the sleepy flight attendant.

He jumped up and said to the man,

"Comrade, what do you want?"

The man said politely,

"I need to go to the bathroom!"

The young flight attendant rubbed his eyes and pointed to the door next to him and said, "This is it!"

At this time, the ticket inspector also came over and said with a smile,

"Ah San, you idiot, fuck your mother, Lei is being lazy again? You idiot!"

"Uncle Chen, I'm sorry..."

The man in the restroom listened quietly to the conversation between the two people. After the ticket inspector left, he washed his hands and came out. Seeing the young attendant's angry expression, he couldn't help but smile and said,

"Little brother, what's wrong? Did you get scolded?"

The young flight attendant pouted at the door.

"Damn Chen Yongan, he's using chicken feathers as a token of authority. He's not the train conductor, so why is he using him to teach me a lesson?"

"That guy just now was so fierce! I thought he was the train conductor? Turns out he wasn't!"

The young flight attendant curled his lips.

"Yan Jiachan, being a train conductor? Is Chen Yongan even qualified? He's just a ticket collector!"

The man echoed a few more words and turned back to the box.

The train continued to run for more than an hour before slowly entering Jiaozhou Station. By then, it was already more than 20 minutes late.

The woman was carrying a large suitcase and a small handbag on her arm as she walked gracefully towards the carriage. Several pairs of eyes were staring at her on the train, one of which belonged to the ticket collector, Chen Yongan.

The woman walked towards the exit with her suitcase. In just over a minute, the train started moving. It turned out that the train would only stop at Jiaozhou Station for one minute.

The woman walked out of the station, sniffed the unique sea smell in the air, took out a perfumed handkerchief and covered her nose with it.

A middle-aged woman came over with a basket on her shoulder. Her ordinary face was smiling, and from the outline of her eyebrows and eyes, it could be seen that it was Gu Chunfen.

However, people who were not particularly close to her could not tell that she was wearing makeup. She was dressed like a fisherman's woman, with her trouser legs rolled up high and a pair of straw sandals.

She looked at the white rose on the woman's chest and asked with a smile,

"Miss, are you here to watch a play?"

The woman nodded.

"I heard that Jiaozhou Theater is performing Water Margin today, so I came to broaden my horizons."

"The thirty-six heavenly stars are above,"

"The seventy-two evil spirits of the world are under the command of the Lord."

After the contact code was exchanged, Gu Chunfen said with a smile,

"Cousin, welcome to Jiaozhou. How is your uncle? Is he in good health?"

The woman laughed softly.

"You are cousin Butterfly, right? Father is in good health. How is Aunt Mei?"

"Very good, very good,"

The two women were talking and laughing. To others, they looked like a pair of sisters who had reunited after a long separation. When they were alone, Gu Chunfen stretched out her right hand.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Butterfly, my current name is Chen Guifang, and I'm a widow whose husband has died. You are my cousin, Ms. White Rose."

The white rose smiled,

"The name on my letter of introduction is Wang Feifei!"

The two held hands together, and Gu Chunfen said with a smile,

"Welcome cousin Feifei."

White Rose lowered her voice and said,

"When can I see Aunt Mei? My superiors have given her an order."

Gu Chunfen smiled and said to her,

"Don't worry, we'll see you soon."

The two of them walked forward, talking and laughing. One had to admire Gu Chunfen's psychological quality. She seemed not to be afraid of being recognized by others. She even bought two popsicles and handed one to Bai Meigui when passing by the old government office.

The lady selling popsicles kept looking at them, and Bai Meigui was a little puzzled.

"Cousin, what is this old lady looking at?"

Gu Chunfen said lightly,

"Nothing, I just killed a few people here a few days ago..."

Bai Meigui was a little surprised, but she didn't show it on her face. The two of them came to the alley behind Tianhou Temple. Gu Chunfen handed Bai Meigui a key.

"The fifth house in this alley has its own entrance and courtyard. You need to change your clothes. They're too conspicuous and inconvenient for movement."

White Rose agreed,

Gu Chunfen said again,

"Our target is a military research institute. The headquarters' order states that you are adept at using drugs. Go to the institute to scout out the situation when you have time. We need a large-scale poisoning incident so we can take advantage of the chaos."

White Rose agreed,

"So when can I see Aunt Mei?"

Gu Chunfen smiled,

"Don't worry, you'll see me when it's your turn. I'll come find you tomorrow morning. You can move freely today, but you must be careful. If you are discovered, you should know the consequences that await you..."
