On April 25th, the Nanjing Wang's puppet government returned to the previous ceremony. Night.

As soon as Lin Shiqun left, many people on No. 76 slacked off, including Chen Miao, some things could be delayed, but they could not be delayed.

It's not a good thing anyway, of course, on the surface, you still have to pretend to be "in a hurry".

Chen Miao got off work early and went home to accompany his wife, who was pregnant and busy with work, and had not had a good meal together for almost a long time.

This home is almost like a hostel.

Outside the window, the rain is a little annoying.

The matter of counterfeit banknotes has not yet been seen for a while, and the investigation of the inferior raincoats and rain boots distributed by the General Affairs Office to the Inspectorate is still being carried out secretly.

Also, he gave Tang Keming the idea, and I don't know if he is doing it, Miss Xiao San......

Although specific tasks were assigned organizationally, he knew very well that this was because his hometown did not want to put too much pressure on him, and the war situation in northwest Hubei had an unfavorable start......

In the European theater, the German army has now Denmark and Norway, and the blitzkrieg is once again in Europe. Germany will not stop there, and neither will Japan, as far away as Asia.

Because this is a rare opportunity for Japan, which is very adventurous and gambling, the European and American powers are mired in the war on the European continent, and it can take this opportunity to dominate Asia.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as Japan has long made clear in the "Tanaka" recital: If you want to conquer the world, you must first conquer Asia, and if you want to conquer Asia, you must first conquer China.

This is now almost the consensus of the whole country.

"Have you been to see that field?" Chen Miao looked at the time, it was almost nine o'clock, came out of the study, and returned to the bedroom.

"Well, the land is quite large, but if you tear down and rebuild just to build a bookstore, isn't it a bit too wasteful?" Liang Xueqin said.

"What do you think?"

"I think that if the land is so big, it would be too big to build a single bookstore, and the bookstore can accommodate up to two or three hundred people, and if there are more, there will be no such atmosphere, so I think it is possible to build a more stage-like theater?"

"What about the bookstore?"

"The bookstore can be a little smaller, and the two can coexist, and you can also invite some artists from the north to come and perform." Liang Xueqin said.

"You're planning to be a hodgepodge."

"In the past, I was trying to survive, and the angles of the issues I considered were different, but now they are different, I think that we also need to learn from and carry forward the evaluation, and we can't stick to our own set, communicate and learn from different artists, which is also a good way to improve ourselves." Liang Xueqin said.

"Oh, Xueqin, I really didn't notice that you actually had such thoughts." Chen Miao was surprised, he was really a little impressed by Liang Xueqin, "It is a good thing to inherit and carry forward the quyi left by our ancestors, if it weren't for the current era of war, you have this ideological realm, then you can be called a master." ”

"You, flatter me with all the nice things you want, how much will it cost to calculate this?" Liang Xueqin gritted her teeth and said.

Chen Miao said: "I think it's worth it for us to spend any amount on what you do." He is now "greedy" for money, he can't learn from Wu Yunfu's guy, decorate his home like a palace, and occupy the place of the neighbor next door, expand it into a tennis court, and open an open-air dance party?

Unrestrained, extravagant.

Sooner or later, this will bring trouble to him.

The house is enough to live, to eat, to be full, to wear, to be warm enough, and to keep the rest, why do you want to stay for the elderly, it's too early.

And this money can't be handed over to the organization now, it's not that he doesn't want to, but he can't, who knows if someone will secretly investigate his property status?

The director of the inspector of No. 76, who "embezzled" so much money, is actually a poor bastard, how can he explain it, as long as this is one item, it is doubtful.

Take out the money to run a bookstore and open a theater for your wife, whether it is lost or earned, then others will see it and feel at ease, and they will be able to explain the ins and outs of their wealth in the future.

"We can't make this theater on a par with the common stage and the more stage, people are big stages, we are small stages, let's get 500 people, the bookstore, just 150 people, we are a big bookstore, snow stage." Chen Miao said with a smile.

"Snow Stage, is this named after me?"

"What do you say?" Chen Miao laughed.

"You say, how much does it cost?" Liang Xueqin's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was interested.

"Why do you want hundreds of thousands of oceans?"

"Hundreds of thousands of ......"

"Those buildings, tables, chairs and benches are worthless, and what really costs money is those sound and projection equipment, which have to be imported from abroad, and they can't be cheap." Chen Miao said, "Let's get it, let's get the best." ”

"But where are we going to get so much money?"

"Don't worry, some people want to buy shares, the two of us now have a total of more than 100,000 belongings, and then move it together, you can ask Qiao'er, Lao Cai and Xiaoqi them, those who are willing to buy shares are counted as their shares......"

"Qiao'er, this girl doesn't have much money, I know, Lao Cai is keeping the pension money, if he is allowed to take it out, it will not be good, Lao Gu is not rich, Xiao Qi, I don't know ......"

"Xiao Qi is rich, but he is a low-key local tyrant." Chen Miao smiled.

"How old is Xiao Qicai, how much money can he have?" Liang Xueqin pouted and said in disbelief.

"I don't know, you can ask him yourself." Chen Miao said, he really didn't know that since Xiao Qi followed him, he had started to save money by himself, it was Xiao Qi's money, and he never asked.

"As soon as you say this, I am even more curious, find a chance, I will definitely ask carefully, and check his family background for Qiao'er." Liang Xueqin became interested.

"Alright, let's sleep." Chen Miao pulled the quilt and prepared to lie down.

Suddenly, the phone rang in a hurry.

It's coming from downstairs.

Chen Miao was startled, at this time, the phone call came in, it must be something important, and it didn't take long for him to hear a burst of footsteps, it was Xiao Qi.

"Third brother, phone."

"Got it, here it is." Chen Miao got up and came down, put on her nightgown and opened the door and walked out.

"Who called?"

Chen Miao asked as she went downstairs.

"Secretary Xia."

"Xia Zhongming?" Chen Miao was taken aback, could it be that Lin Shiqun had an accident, otherwise how could Xia Zhongming call his house so late.

"Secretary Xia, I'm Chen Miao." Chen Miao picked up the telephone and said directly.

"Chen, something happened, the director was assassinated on the way to Zhan Yuan." Xia Zhongming's voice was a little hurried, obviously nervous caused by panic.

"Don't worry, talk slowly, what the hell is going on? Where is the Director now? Chen Miao "chuckled" in her heart, could it be that Ding Shijun acted? Zhuang Ying's intelligence is really not hearsay?

"The director is now on the 21st, and the person is fine, fortunately, the other party's marksmanship is not accurate enough, otherwise tonight will be really mysterious." Xia Zhongming explained.

"It's okay if the director is fine, but are there any casualties among the others?" Chen Miao made a "relieved" gesture and continued to ask.

"Zhang Lu and a few brothers were slightly injured, but there was no major problem, but the killer saw that he didn't succeed, and they all ran away, and none of them were caught." Xia Zhongming said, "The director is losing his temper at the head of the Soviet District." ”

"I'm afraid it's no wonder that the head of the Soviet District is in this matter, Nanjing City is so big, the government has complicated personnel, he can't monitor them one by one, there are many people who want the director's life, in addition to Chongqing, there may be people within us who are dissatisfied with the director, which is particularly important." Chen Miao said.

"Chen, do you mean Minister Ding?"

"I'm just saying that, now that things have happened, what is the director's plan?" Chen Miao asked.

"The director asked me to call you to inform you that I will go back to Shanghai directly after attending the ceremony tomorrow, and ask you to arrange to pick him up at the station, and he will inform you of the specific time."

"Okay, I see, if the director needs manpower, I can immediately send someone to take the train tomorrow morning to escort the director back to Shanghai?"

"No need, on the train, there are Japanese military police and police, you don't have to worry." Xia Zhongming said.

"Okay, I got it." After Chen Miao finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

It is conceivable how violent Lin Shiqun is at this moment, he has already reminded him, but the assassination still happened.

Whether it was Ding Shijun's doing, he couldn't say for a while.

This incident happened the night before the ceremony, so I don't know if the news will break out tomorrow, and maybe it will steal the limelight from that person.

It's hard to say whether this matter will burn on his head, but this matter over there in Nanjing should not have anything to do with him, otherwise, this Su Dechang will not be able to get along with him.

"Xiao Qi, listen a little, if there is a call at night, answer it as soon as possible." Chen Miao ordered Xiao Qi, who was guarding the side, to make a sound.

"Hmm." Xiao Qi agreed.

……

At work the next day, Chen Miao did not wait for a call or telegram from Nanjing, but Harry made a call to his office.

"Drink coffee, at this time, I can't leave?" Chen Miao couldn't go out separately at this time, even if she was drinking tea and reading the newspaper at No. 76.

"And I'm coming for you?"

"If you want to come over, aren't you afraid that our relationship will be known by outsiders?" Chen Miao doesn't care, but Harimin is still a staff member of the German Siemens company's Shanghai office, not a staff member of the German Embassy.

"It doesn't matter, you No. 76 also purchased equipment from our Siemens son." Harry laughed, "Isn't it normal for me to visit my clients?" ”

"But I'm not in charge of procurement?"

"So what, can't I visit you as a personal friend?" Harry laughed, "I'm a German. ”

"Okay, if you come over, I'll have someone pick you up at the door, you can't come in without a pass." Chen Miao said.

"OK, see you later." Harry said.

Chen Miao didn't know why Harry insisted on coming to No. 76 to see him, this was a little unusual, could it be that their business had changed?

However, he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary?

Before Harry arrived, Chen Miao felt that something was abnormal, so he made a special call to Wu Tianlin to ask if there was a problem with the business of 'Lin'.

Wu Tianlin also felt strange, but soon after, a piece of news came over.

A cargo ship loaded with tungsten ore from Jiangxi to Wusongkou was detained by the Japanese Navy on the grounds that the ore transported on board did not conform to the registration on the "Material Removal Permit".

This has never been done before.
