Chapter 1375: Arriving in Shandong

Although Liu Shang is currently an official in the Haihan Youth League, he still habitually stands on the position of the Ming Dynasty when considering problems, and examines the various policies of the Haihan from a hostile perspective. Through the observation of the past few months, Liu Shang also had to admit that Haihan did have many clever methods on the issue of immigration, and it was these measures that effectively helped Haihan grow rapidly at an unimaginable speed and become a very threatening emerging force outside the Ming Dynasty.

Now that Haihan's tentacles have crossed the Shandong Peninsula and extended to the more distant Liaodong region, Liu Shang seems to have no other way to stop Haihan's actions except to admire the magnitude of Haihan's handwriting. Not only could it not be stopped, Liu Shang also had to contribute to the expansion of Haihan in the process, which was really an inexplicable irony for him, an official of Haihan who still retained his undercover identity.

Liu Shang's current identity can be said to be very delicate, he is a senior intelligence officer who has left files in the Ming Dynasty, but after Liao Yuan, Qin An and others died in a shipwreck on Hainan Island, he has temporarily lost contact with the intelligence department to which he belongs, and he cannot explain to the above that the accidental death of Liao Yuan and others has nothing to do with him. Now that Yu Xiaobao has been stuffed into the cadre team that went north to aid the construction, he will definitely not be able to return to the south in less than a year and a half after this trip, and the whole team has completely lost contact with the above for such a long time, and his name on a secret roster has probably been crossed out long ago.

The idea of letting go of the past, changing the object of allegiance, and becoming a Haihan official in the future has appeared in Liu Shang's mind every night in the recent period. His loyalty to Da Ming is being worn away little by little with the passage of time, and he himself knows very well, which side is more promising to be an official, which is even more obvious. On the one hand, it is necessary to sell one's life for wealth, and it may be revealed that one's identity may die at any time, and on the other hand, there are already nobles who have set up a ladder for themselves in the officialdom, and as long as they climb up the ladder in the future, there will definitely be no problem in mixing with a peace officer.

Giving up the previous identity and surviving with the existing new identity is the most rational decision, and Liu Shang himself understands this. But this means completely giving up everything in the past and giving up his identity as a subject of the Ming Dynasty, and he is still a little difficult to let go in his heart. To put it bluntly, I still have luck, thinking that if I can't stay in Haihan one day, and there is a suitable opportunity to get out of Haihan and return to Daming, then my secret identity may still play a role.

Of course, there must be a premise for such a way out, that is, the identity will not be exposed by the Haihan security department during this period. Liu Shang will not underestimate the ability of the Haihan intelligence department just because he has successfully lurked for a few months, on the contrary, he has been walking on thin ice every day in the past few months, especially after Danzhou witnessed Zhang Qianzhi find out the ghosts in the inspection team, he added 10,000 more cautions, lest he have any flaws and be detected by others.

Being away from Sanya is actually a relief for Liu Shang, and he doesn't have to worry about being closely monitored before that. Although Shandong also has people from the Ministry of Security, and it is said that they are still commanded by big people, Liu Shang knew that the focus of their work would not be internal, but against the Ming Dynasty. Working and living here, he can live a little more relaxed, and no longer have to worry about his identity being exposed every day.

After entering the waters of Shandong, the number of ships on this side was significantly smaller than that of Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the south, and the fleet moved along the coastline, and could not touch one or two ships in half a day. And even if they meet occasionally, after seeing the size of the Haihan fleet and the two-color flag hanging high on the top of the mast, the other party will generally choose to take the initiative to avoid it.

In fact, the composition of Haihan's northbound fleet was no longer the lineup when it set off from Sanya, and some of the ships had already turned back after arriving at the Pearl River Estuary, Penghu, Zhoushan and other places, and another group of local ships joined in. When they arrived in the waters of Shandong, most of the ships in the fleet had joined later, and only the passenger ships transporting the cadres going north, a few cargo ships carrying equipment, and the two warships that served as escorts all the way out of Sanya together. And this kind of fleet, which is composed of dozens of large sailing ships, has rarely appeared in Shandong waters in recent years, so it is natural for witnesses to avoid it.
