Chapter 885: Secret Letter

Lin Youde rubbed his palms uneasily, not paying attention to what his friends were saying, until he was slapped hard and came back to his senses. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Brother Lin, are you still worried about the Northern Army?" One of the councillors said with a smile.

"No, I'm just afraid of blood." Lin Youde glanced at Yao Hongtao, who was lying in a pool of blood.

The councillor turned his head and sneered, "There is more than enough to die, and the generals who escaped from the battle deserve to die." ”

Lin Youde smiled in agreement, did not answer, the other party seemed to feel a little bored, turned around and walked towards the other councillor, at this time he breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a difficult day for him, since the secret guard gave him the task of being an undercover agent, he came to the state of Chu, and he has been doing business in the country for five or six years.

When the Merchant Council was formed, he was tasked with infiltrating the Merchant Council and listening to the inside of the Council at any time.

However, he is only a lowly parliamentarian, and he rarely gets any big news, but today's words made him a little unable to sit still.

Because the last words were too shocking, if Cao Kun really got talents from Qingzhou University, he believed that Cao Kun would send these talents to the UK as soon as possible.

After all, the secret guards had already gained insight into the relationship between Cao Kun and the British Society, and the establishment of the Merchant Council was also established at the suggestion of this association.

At the same time, the sworn enemies of France and England also came together because of their common interests and supported the merchant council established by Cao Kun.

And what this parliament does not even have in their country, everything that Cao Kun is preaching now is nothing more than a demagogic fallacy of association.

Of course, this is not the point, the point is that European countries are worried about the scientific and technological development of the Great Chongqing Country, and they are trying their best to obtain the various science and technology of the Great Chongqing Country.

So if Cao's words are true, Dayu may face a loss of technical talent, and in order to avoid this problem, he must pass on this news.

When he returned home, Lin Youde immediately took out a blank piece of paper, and then he took out a small box.

Opening the box, there was some white powder inside, he poured the powder into a basin and added some water, and then used a brush to dip the transparent liquid into the clear liquid to record all the information he received.

When he was done, he dried the white paper, which was still white and he couldn't see any handwriting.

Relieved, Lin Youde stuffed the white paper into his sleeve, got up and walked out of the city.

Nowadays, because of the war, a large number of displaced people have gathered outside Suzhou to beg, and in order to show the benevolence of the merchant council, Cao Kun will send people outside the city every day to give porridge, and at the same time look for young people to join the parliamentary army.

Occasionally, these councillors would go for the same purpose as Cao Kun's.

Outside the city, Lin Youde went to the soup kitchen stall as usual, and on one side of the stall there was a stall full of steamed buns, and some soldiers were distributing them to the people.

Lin Youde took the opportunity to take out the folded white paper from his sleeve cage at this time, and when he saw a dirty middle-aged man walking in front of him for a while, he picked up a steamed bun, put the steamed bun on the paper and handed it to the man.

"Wait a minute!"

Just when a stone fell in Lin Youde's heart, a voice sounded, he turned his head, and Cao Zhengtong walked in front of him with a platoon of soldiers.

"Lin Youde, you are really leisurely, and you are still in the mood to give porridge at this time." Cao Zhengtong said sarcastically.

Lin Youde said quietly: "I believe in Buddhism, I have always been compassionate and kind to all sentient beings, and I will come here at this time of the month to give alms, which everyone knows." “

Cao Zhengtong looked at Lin Youde suspiciously, he suddenly snatched the steamed bun from the man's hand, and then picked up the paper wrapped in the steamed bun.

"Then why do you always like to wrap steamed buns in white paper?" Cao Zhengtongzai carefully looked at the white paper, there was nothing on it, and his spirit suddenly relaxed.

Lin Youde said unhurriedly: "This freshly produced steamed bun is too hot, you can separate it with paper, you see, there is still a lot of paper here, which Lin specially prepared for the soldiers." ”

Cao Zhengtong glanced at the paper in front of the steamed bun and frowned, he returned the steamed bun to the man, snorted and turned away.

After the parliamentarians left, he stepped up patrols to prevent the inner ghosts from transmitting news to the outside, and this Lin Youde's appearance here at this time inevitably aroused his suspicions.

Originally, he thought that Lin Youde was an inner ghost who passed the news to the outside through soup kitchen, but after some inspection, he found nothing, so he had to continue to stare at the other councilors.

Seeing Cao Zhengtong leaving, an imperceptible smile flashed in Lin Youde's eyes, in fact, he had been using this method to deliver news during this time.

The white paper in front of the steamed bun stall was also specially prepared by him from the beginning, and after a long time, the soldiers and parliamentarians took it as a habit.

And in order to avoid arousing suspicion, the people who come to the joint are different every time, everything is flawless.

Continuing to give porridge to the people at the city gate for a while, Lin Youde returned to the city before dark.

Taking advantage of the night, the man who received the steamed bun stuffed the white paper into his belt and headed all the way to the river, where there was a boatman who belonged to the secret guard.

The next day, the secret letter was delivered to Jinling City.

"Your Majesty, the secret letter from Suzhou City has arrived." At noon, Li San entered the main hall of Xingyuan.

Xiao Ming took the secret letter, there was a blank on it, there was nothing, he was not surprised, but took out a bottle of water from the table and poured it on the white paper.

Suddenly, three rows of blue handwriting were revealed.

At this time, he taught the secret guard one of the many ways to write secret letters, and this time Lin Youde used only the simplest starch secret letters, as long as these starches come into contact with iodine, the handwriting on the secret letters will be revealed.

Glancing at the contents of the secret letter, Xiao Ming frowned, and he said to Li San: "Lin Youde said that Cao Kun buried a secret in Qingzhou Academy, and these elite talents will soon go to Jiangnan?"

"How is this possible? Now the students of Qingzhou University have to be named, even the former students who enter the factory need to go to the guard station every day to take a roll call, and they also need the guidance of the guard post to go out of the city, how can they escape? Li San shook his head.

Xiao Ming didn't believe it either, as Li San said, in order to avoid the leakage of talents, he set up strict restrictions, in order to prevent these people from running around.

"Cao Kun is not necessarily talking nonsense, after all, he has to rely on this to boost morale." Xiao Ming said to Li San: "You immediately inform the guards in Qingzhou to keep an eye on the students of Qingzhou University, and there must be no mistakes." “

Li San nodded, and he didn't dare to take it lightly in this matter.

"Cao Kun, I want to see what tricks you can play." Li San gritted his teeth, looking hateful.
