The birds at the entrance of the shop were still chirping nonstop.
Old Meng thought for a moment before meeting Xu Zhongyi's eyes.
"It seems that you have already agreed to Yu Xiuning's request.”
"That's right. This is the best method at the moment.”
Xu Zhongyi's eyes were filled with determination as he answered with certainty.
"After these few days of contact, I can feel that the war against Japan has ended. The couple no longer have the heart to participate in party disputes.”
"He just wants to take this opportunity to borrow my hand to earn more money so that it will be convenient in the future.”
Hearing Xu Zhongyi's explanation, Old Meng heaved a sigh of relief.
He put down the scissors in his hand and turned around to get a towel.
Xu Zhongyi yawned heavily behind him and continued.
"Last night, the couple dragged me along and thought about ways to make money for them.”
"I'm going to be tortured by them until I go crazy.”
Old Meng turned around and smiled.
"This money is a good thing. It can keep people awake for nights.”
"However, this shows that the couple trusts you very much.”
Xu Zhongyi immediately retorted.
"He's relying on me."
His words made Old Meng laugh again. He used water to arrange the towel, and the latter replied with a smile.
"Looks like Old Yang knows you the best.”
Xu Zhongyi didn't quite understand what Old Meng meant. He tilted his head and looked at him through the mirror.
"What do you mean?"
Old Meng quickly replied after rubbing the wet towel on his hand a few times.
"Old Yang told me to tell you that the organization has decided to adjust your mission direction.”
"It has become to divide the enemy and provide resources for our army. As for collecting information... You can put it aside for now, or even not provide any information.”
The organization's decision actually coincided with Yu Xiuning's suggestion not to let him touch the information.
In this way, he could earn money while providing supplies to the organization under the eyes of Chen Ming and his wife.
They might even lend a helping hand. This was really a good thing to kill two birds with one stone!
Xu Zhongyi turned his head and confirmed.
"Did Old Yang really say that?"
Old Meng smiled and nodded.
"You just said that Chen Ming and Yu Xiuning performed well during the war.”
"But now, they've forgotten about righteousness for the sake of profit. If every single one of the Guomindang is like them, then it would be too easy to defeat them.”
There was a hidden meaning in Old Meng's words. Fortunately, Xu Zhongyi could hear it.
The two of them hit it off and matched their thoughts.
"Old Meng, I understand what you and Old Yang mean.”
"Use these people's greed and weaknesses to form a protective umbrella. Then, through this protective umbrella, we can provide resources for our army.”
Old Meng admired Xu Zhongyi's quick-wittedness. He nodded and instructed.
"Zhongyi, but there's one thing you need to know…"
Before he could finish, the serious Xu Zhongyi interrupted him.
"I know what the organization means. They must be telling me not to hurt the interests of the people and to be flexible and control the situation.”
Looking at Xu Zhongyi, who already knew everything, Old Meng smiled but did not say anything.
He changed the topic and began to provide him with information.
"Zhongyi, there's one more thing I have to tell you in advance.”
"A few days ago, didn't the Military Command Bureau of the Kuomingtang set up the Northeast Patrol Inspectorate? The main person in charge is only Chen Ming and his wife, but it's obviously far from enough.”
"Recently, they may transfer a special commissioner and a large number of key spies from the headquarters to Shen Yang, so you must be prepared.”
Xu Zhongyi was stunned when he heard that. He was familiar with the original plot, and a few familiar figures instantly appeared in his mind.
He was actually going to meet Young Master Qi and Gu Yufei again so soon?
This was obviously the headquarters 'intention for Chen Ming and Yu Xiuning.
If the husband and wife didn't rely on him, they would probably be tortured by the people from the headquarters. Even if they didn't die, they would be skinned alive.
"Alright, don't worry."
Xu Zhongyi blinked and nodded.
...
After leaving the barbershop, Xu Zhongyi touched the hairstyle that Old Meng had just fixed for him and smiled happily.
The moment the cold wind blew past, he heaved a sigh of relief and walked towards the train station with his hands behind his back.
In the next few days.
Xu Zhongyi straightened his back and began to pretend to tell Chen Ming and Yu Xiuning about his unique set of old business methods.
Xu Zhongyi used the existing resources of the Shen Yang Station to provide cotton cloth as a strategic material for the organization that was in urgent need of cotton clothes.
The money was divided into two parts, one for Chen Ming and his wife and one for himself.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Zhongyi bought himself a two-story bungalow. It was bigger and more stylish than Chen Ming and his wife's.
"Aiyo, look, look, it's still my brother!”
Xu Zhongyi's new home was not far from Chen Ming and Yu Xiuning's bungalow.
The couple, who had tasted the benefits of doing business, carried large and small bags of things that were still missing in their new home and helped out uninvited.
"This new building is so bright. No wonder I didn't need to find a place to stay back then!”
Chen Ming stepped into Xu Zhongyi's new bungalow and looked around. His eyes lit up.
He was wearing a brownish-gray coat, which looked very neat. It was obvious that it was a new style.
Seeing this, Xu Zhongyi knew that he must have earned a lot from this. Yu Xiuning was happy and changed him into a new set of clothes.
"What's the big deal? Your western-style house is so nice and cozy!”
"Compared to your set, I think it's far inferior!”
Xu Zhongyi smacked his lips and pretended to be dissatisfied.
He saw Yu Xiuning standing in place, staring at a set of jade on the table in a daze.
Anyone with good eyesight would be able to see that the jade was of high quality and had exquisite patterns. It was a rare piece of art.
Xu Zhongyi could see the greed and desire in her eyes.
"Sis, do you like it?"
Xu Zhongyi walked up and put on a smile.
Yu Xiuning's thoughts were disrupted. She came back to her senses and stared at Xu Zhongyi. She smiled embarrassedly.
"If you like it, then so be it. Why can't you say it?”
"Sis, we're family. If you like it, feel free to take it!”
Yu Xiuning's eyes lit up again. Her face was filled with disbelief. She turned around and looked at Xu Zhongyi instead of the jade.
"Zhongyi, are you really giving me such a good jade artifact?”
"Yeah, it's true!"
Xu Zhongyi nodded decisively and replied.
