Chapter 204 Lin Shi borrows money
Didn’t the intelligence team give out the money directly?
Chu Lingyun fell into deep thought. He was not thinking about how the moles would get their reward. All the moles were exposed, and he could find out everything by catching them during the day.
What he was thinking was, could there be other Japanese spy groups doing the same work as the Wildcat Group?
There were only six moles among the Japanese spies in the entire city of Nanjing?
One of them had just been recruited to rebel, so it was obvious that this was impossible.
It’s a pity that not all moles are under the control of the wild cat, otherwise they could be caught this time.
Thinking of this, Chu Lingyun laughed to himself.
If he was the head of the intelligence department, he would never hand over all the moles to one person. If something happened, they would all be lost. It would be safer to separate them. This is normal.
"Team leader."
Loach and Chu Yuan came to Chu Lingyun together, with fiery eyes.
There were two more Japanese spies and five moles, a total of seven people. This was a great achievement. They once again completely wiped out the entire intelligence team of Japanese spies.
Unfortunately, it is still not perfect, Fang Wanchao died.
But Fang Wanchao was not the leader of the intelligence team. His contribution this time was no less than the previous one of cracking down on the Lizard Group. Although the number of Japanese spies was not that large, it was still a great achievement to eliminate so many traitors who had been recruited.
"Chu Yuan, go catch those two kittens tomorrow morning. Leave Song Weilun to Loach and let him catch them."
Chu Lingyun understood what they meant and quickly assigned the tasks.
"yes."
The two of them received the order together and were both very happy with Chu Lingyun's arrangement.
Loach captured the team leader Wildcat and his wife, but he didn't care much about the other two Japanese spies. He preferred to catch these moles, raid their homes, and get a lot of rewards.
Chu Yuan urgently needs to catch Japanese spies to prove himself. If he catches two at a time, he can not only atone for his crime, but also make a great contribution.
The two of them each took what they needed and divided the credit of the case.
The next morning, both teams set out, but Chu Lingyun stayed in the office and did not participate.
Before noon, the two teams brought people back one after another. The four interrogation rooms in the interrogation department were not enough. If those traitors had not confessed quickly, they would have had to wait in line for interrogation.
Such a commotion naturally alarmed Henian.
"Section Chief, I wanted to get all the confessions before reporting to you."
Chu Lingyun was called into He Nian's office and said with a smile. He Nian stared at him with wide eyes: "All the confessions, did you get any big results yesterday?"
"There is a big harvest, Chief. Chu Yuan found out about the Department of Health..."
Chu Lingyun told Henian in detail about his work over the past few days. The more Henian listened, the more excited he became. Finally, he slapped his thigh and said, "Great! We've busted another entire Japanese spy group. Lingyun, you're really amazing! You can even find out so much about a dead person."
Although the wild cat was reported by Jiang Tengkong and was found by them in advance, the wild cat could not escape even without Jiang Tengkong.
Being able to find two clues from a Japanese spy and successfully uncover them all is a testament to one's abilities.
The others didn't have any clues, let alone two. Now, except for Group One who got the guidance of Chu Lingyun and had a direction, Group Two and Group Three were still foolishly looking for clues.
As for the Intelligence Department, with so many informants, they have gained nothing so far. It is said that the Director is very dissatisfied with Xu Yi.
He Nian had experienced such a crisis before, but at that time at least he and Xu Yi did not do well. Now Xu Yi is the only one left, and the pressure is even greater.
Especially compared with the Operations Department, Xu Yi's life is very difficult, and it can be said that each day is like a year.
"Chief, the two Japanese spies have been captured by Chu Yuan, and the three traitors have also been captured by Loach. I estimate that they will all be rounded up by this afternoon."
Chu Lingyun said with a smile, actually he was asking for credit for Chu Yuan and Niu Qiu.
"They both did a great job, especially Chu Yuan. He didn't give in to the setbacks and managed to find so many clues despite the pressure. He deserves praise."
Henian nodded slightly. They were all from the Operations Department, and the more contributions they made, the better.
He would report these matters in detail to the director and help them take credit.
"Section Chief, I'm going to go back first. I'll send it back to you once I get the complete confession."
Chu Lingyun asked to leave. Henian did not keep him. He really needed these confessions. Only after getting the confessions and confirming everything could he report to his superiors.
By the afternoon, all the traitors were caught, including the major from the military headquarters.
When they went to the military headquarters to arrest someone, they encountered some trouble. The people in the military headquarters did not agree to let them take the person away and wanted to interrogate the major themselves.
Loach became anxious and lied that there were still many Japanese spies in the military headquarters, and asked whether those who tried to stop him were accomplices of the Japanese spies.
Once this big hat was put on, no one dared to stop him anymore, and finally Loach successfully brought the person back.
But what loach says is not necessarily false.
Even in a place as tightly guarded as the Military Intelligence Department, Japanese spies were able to plant two undercover agents. How could there be only one Japanese spy in such a chaotic military headquarters?
Not to mention Loach, I'm afraid even they themselves don't believe it.
If the Military Intelligence Department used this excuse to take him away, it would be more trouble than gain. The people who tried to stop him had no confidence, and even if their rank was much higher than Loach's, they would eventually give in and let him go.
All the interrogations were over before the end of the working day.
Including two Japanese spies, all confessed.
There was no point in them not confessing since even their team leader had surrendered. Especially since the Military Intelligence Department already knew what they had done, there was no point in them resisting except to make themselves suffer.
After getting the confession, He Nian hurried to Director Zuo's office without waiting for Chu Lingyun's closing report.
"Director, this is how the entire operation unfolded. Chu Lingyun refused to give up any leads and meticulously tracked down the dead. He ultimately succeeded in capturing the entire Japanese intelligence team, as well as six traitors who had been recruited to defect."
Xu Wu had been arrested a long time ago, but he also belonged to the Wildcat Team and the cases could be combined.
"It's rare, really rare."
Chu Zuo was moved and said that he knew better than anyone how difficult it would be to investigate after a person died as all clues were cut off.
Although the wild cat was exposed by Jiang Tengkong, Chu Lingyun was able to find the wild cat again on a dead body, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
Chu Zuo already knew that Chu Lingyun was capable, but this time, he was truly amazed.
Especially since he found so many traitors in other units, the director can definitely save face in front of the chairman.
Cracking the Wildcat Team is more significant than busting the Lizard Team.
This time, the team leader was also captured, as well as a Japanese major-level spy.
"Comrade, I'm going back first."
After finishing his report, He Nian said his goodbyes at the right time. As soon as he left, the director immediately asked Secretary Qi beside him, "How is Wang Yuemin's promotion to colonel going?"
"The military keeps making excuses. I'll go and urge them again." Secretary Qi said with his head down.
"Tell them to hurry up. What's the military doing? Are there Japanese spies inside who are deliberately obstructing them?"
The director said dissatisfiedly, and Secretary Qi nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I will tell them to finalize the military rank issue as soon as possible."
Those people in the military don't like the people in their military intelligence department and always like to block them.
Lieutenants are fine, but the promotion of majors is often delayed, especially colonels. The military has never been happy with this. This time, a Japanese spy was found within the military, which gave the director a reason to file a complaint with the chairman.
Wang Yuemin's promotion will be confirmed soon.
As long as the people in the military are not stupid, they will not hesitate at this time. Otherwise, if they are given an excuse, the director will really dare to take action against them.
"Give them three days. If they still can't do it within three days, don't blame me for being rude."
The director nodded, and Secretary Qi immediately stood up straight: "Yes, give them three days."
Secretary Qi knew the director very well, and the reason why he mentioned Wang Yuemin at this time was entirely because of Chu Lingyun.
Chu Lingyun was brought up by Wang Yuemin. Now that he has made such a great contribution, the director has remembered him again, and thus thought of his rank of colonel that has not yet been confirmed.
Two days later, Chu Lingyun submitted the closing report.
In this case closing report, the first credit goes to Loach, followed by Chu Yuan, and Shen Hanwen comes in last.
Originally, Shen Hanwen had the best opportunity to make a contribution. If he had discovered Fang Wanchao in advance, found out Fang Wanchao's problem, and discovered the wild cat one step ahead, perhaps the credit would have been his.
But no matter what, it was he who discovered the Neon Company, and from there he discovered Fang Wanchao, which led to a series of clues. Chu Lingyun took the opportunity to commend him for his achievements in the case closing report.
…
In the study of the two-story building in Lotus Lane, Secretary Liang and Director Yang sat face to face.
"My family has received the supplies this time. They arrived just in time and saved a lot of lives, but we're still running low on medicine. The medicine you sent can only last for ten days at most. They called and asked if we could provide them with some more medicine."
Secretary Liang said slowly that Director Yang was very happy to know that the goods were delivered safely, but his next words made him extremely embarrassed.
Now they have the cargo channels and can ship goods smoothly, but the key is that they have no money.
"Secretary Liang, I'm going to think of a way to send another shipload of goods back home."
Director Yang gritted his teeth and said that he knew very well how much money was on the books, and he couldn't afford to buy even a box of medicine, let alone a whole ship.
It’s not that there is no money on the books. They still have businesses to run and need capital turnover. If they use this money and delay their business, their stores will have to close.
By that time, there will be nothing you can do to send anything.
"I know it's been difficult for you. I borrowed some money from a friend these days. Take it and buy as much as you can. This isn't medicine, it's life."
Secretary Liang nodded slowly. He knew Director Yang's situation very well. Doing this would indeed put them in a difficult position.
What comforted him was that no matter how difficult the situation was, his comrades did not refuse, but instead thought of ways to help their hometown.
"Secretary Liang, how are you going to pay back the money you borrowed?"
Director Yang frowned as he looked at the 1,000 French francs that Secretary Liang pushed over. Secretary Liang could earn some money with his status, but it would take more than a year without eating or drinking to earn that much money.
"Don't worry about this. Use it to buy medicine. Compared to the lives of our comrades, this little money is nothing."
Secretary Liang shook his head. The borrowed money must be repaid, but he would find a way to pay it back himself and had never thought of asking Director Yang to help pay it back.
Director Yang and his colleagues are having a difficult time themselves. They have donated a lot of things to their hometown over the years and live a hard life on weekdays. We cannot let them pay for everything this time.
"Yes, Secretary Liang, I will find a way to get the remaining money and pay for the goods as soon as possible so that I can send the goods back home."
Director Yang did not refuse any more. The one thousand French francs were very important to them. It could indeed help them buy a lot of medicine, but the price of medicine was not low now, especially some Western medicines and surgical supplies used to treat trauma, which were very expensive.
The medicine they sent last time cost them eight thousand French francs, which was all their savings.
Director Yang hurried back, and in the evening, Old Wu and Xiao Su came to his place for a routine meeting.
"The goods have been received at my hometown."
Director Yang spoke first, and both Old Wu and Xiao Su smiled. They were glad to have received it. Although they had taken good care of the relationship in Nanjing, it was not safe along the way. Now that they had received a reply from their hometown, they were completely relieved.
"But the medicines are still not enough. We have to find a way to send them another shipload before this one comes back."
Director Yang’s next words left both of them stunned.
Half of the cargo they sent out was their own goods, and the remaining half was things sent back home. Their business depended on this half of the goods.
Before the goods come back for sale, even if they send out another shipload, it won't be enough even if they take out all the money on their books.
"Director Yang, when will my hometown need it?"
Xiao Su gritted his teeth. Like Director Yang, he did not mention any difficulties and only thought about how these things would help his hometown.
"The sooner the better."
Director Yang sighed and continued, "The higher-ups gave me a thousand. I can scrape together 1,300 French francs right now. I'll borrow some from someone tomorrow and try to get 2,000. As for the remaining gap, can you think of a way to deal with it?"
"Director Yang, you've used the reserve fund. What if something happens?"
Xiao Su asked hurriedly. He knew very well that Director Yang had a reserve fund of 300 yuan, which was to be used in emergencies.
For example, if a comrade gets into trouble and needs rescue, or if they need to find a new safe house, they have never touched this money before, just for the sake of security.
"Let's not worry about that for now. Hometown is more important. We can't die without money, but they don't have medicine, and people die every day."
Director Yang shook his head. The purpose of the reserve fund was to save lives. Saving them was the same as saving the soldiers back home.
"I'm going to the bank tomorrow to see if I can borrow some money. But I've already borrowed once before, so I'm afraid I won't be able to borrow much this time. I'll also ask other friends to help me borrow some money, and I'll try to get two thousand."
Xiao Su said slowly, Director Yang took out two thousand, and he took out two thousand, and now they have four thousand, but it is still not enough, and the gap is huge.
However, the ship can also carry their goods when it is shipped out. They can earn at most one thousand for a round trip. If the previous ship comes back, it will be two thousand.
Unfortunately, the money cannot be obtained now, and it will cost more to ship the goods out.
Based on the calculations of the previous ship, they would need to prepare at least 12,000.
"Lao Zheng and I will also try to find a way to raise two thousand."
Old Wu whispered that Old Zheng owned a grocery store and could make some money, but he had already handed over all the money he earned and had no savings at all.
They were under a lot of pressure to raise two thousand.
"Six thousand now. Let's think of a way to ship out the goods as soon as possible this month."
Director Yang nodded and said that what he meant by shipping the goods was that the tribute to the Fifth Branch and the Marine Police Headquarters had been received, and there would be another ship that could ship goods safely within this month.
The three gold bars as a tribute can be waived, but money for cigarettes and alcohol for the police at the dock is necessary. However, compared with the three gold bars, this is just a small amount of money.
"Director Yang is right. If we have one more ship to ship goods, we can make more money."
Xiao Su nodded and said that his most important task now was to make money, but making money was not that easy, as he had to take care of everything, so it was useless to be anxious.
"Our goods will wait for a while. Old Wu, you continue to contact the source of goods. Once the payment is received, we will ship the goods even if we don't have them."
The two understood what Director Yang meant. This time, they had to focus on their hometown and deliver the things they needed there first.
But this will only make their funding gap even bigger.
Old Wu returned home, and Old Zheng came to his place in the evening. On his way back, Old Wu passed by the grocery store and made a secret gesture to signal a meeting.
"Old Wu, why are you so depressed?" Old Zheng asked curiously after arriving.
"My hometown is still short of medicine and wants us to provide some more. Today, Director Yang asked us to pool our money together. I'll go out and borrow some money tomorrow. Old Zheng, can you chip in some?"
"Okay, how much do you need?"
Old Zheng's expression suddenly became serious. Hometown matters were the most important. Without their hometown, they would be like rootless duckweed.
No matter what, we must find a way to help our hometown.
"Let's both chip in two thousand."
"Two thousand? Okay, I'll find a way."
Old Zheng frowned. His grocery store was not worth two thousand even if he sold it. It was really not easy to raise this money.
The next day at noon, after Lin Shi got off work, he came to Lao Zheng's grocery store. Lao Zheng's grocery store was on his way home. He deliberately used up the things at home quickly so that he would have a reason to come here to buy things.
The things in Lao Zheng’s grocery store are not expensive, which is a suitable reason.
Even so, he didn't dare to go to Lao Zheng often. He knew very well that once he was spotted, it would likely bring danger to Lao Zheng.
"Get me some toothpaste."
There were people in Lao Zheng's shop. After Lin Shi came in, he pointed at the cabinet and said that Lao Zheng deliberately delayed and took things out for other customers. After sending everyone away, he brought the toothpaste that Lin Shi needed.
"I saw you were going to sign for a meeting, what's going on?"
Lin Shi immediately lowered his voice. There was a sign hanging outside the door saying that kerosene was out of stock. This was a secret signal to Lin Shi, telling him that Lao Zheng wanted to meet him.
There are also several secret codes between them, corresponding to different situations.
"Qingting, I didn't want to look for you, but my hometown is in trouble and urgently needs medicine. Can you raise some money?"
Old Zheng whispered that there was no way he could ask Lin Shi for help. He could not raise enough money by himself, so he could only ask another comrade for help.
Lin Shi had just joined the organization, but Lao Zheng felt embarrassed when he was asked to take money.
"How much do you need?" Lin Shi asked immediately.
"The gap is huge, the more the better, but just do your best."
"Okay, I understand."
Lin Shi took the toothpaste, looked outside, reached out to take the change from Lao Zheng, and left.
Old Zheng didn't tell him the specific amount because he was afraid that he would feel pressured. He said that whatever amount Lin Shi could raise would be fine, a few dozen or even a hundred yuan would be enough, and he would figure out the rest.
Lin Shi had not been working for long when he realized that Lin Shi did not have much money.
After leaving, Lin Shi did not go home directly. He turned two corners and went to a pharmacy to ask about the price of Western medicine.
The result shocked him. These Western medicines were not cheap. With so many people in his hometown, they must need a lot of medicines, which was not a small amount of money.
No wonder Lao Zheng would look for him. Lao Zheng probably wouldn't have asked for this unless he was in real trouble.
After returning home, Lin Shi took out all his savings, one hundred and thirty-two yuan and seventy cents.
How much medicine can I buy with this little money?
After work in the afternoon, Lin Shi was restless and looked at the phone in the big office several times.
Finally, Lin Shi bit his lip, asked his boss for leave, and went to the public phone outside.
Chu Lingyun was in his office, carefully analyzing all the confessions in the Wildcat case.
He was looking through the intelligence income confessed by the five traitors. Xu Wu had also provided intelligence before, but in order to help him get promoted, the Japanese gave him ten gold bars.
The money he should have received for the information he provided would have been deducted from his reward, so he has not received any money yet.
The remaining five traitors had their remuneration transferred to them through the post office.
Once a month, the amount varies.
However, the remittance addresses are different. Only two of the five people have the same remittance address, both in Shanghai, and the rest are in Tianjin, Hangzhou and Wuhan.
Postal remittances were very common in this era. Chu Lingyun originally wanted to use the remittance locations to find more traitors bribed by Japanese spies, but the remittance locations were different, and it was obvious that the Japanese spies had already taken precautions.
"Ring, ring, ring."
The phone on the table rang, and Chu Lingyun picked up the phone: "This is Chu Lingyun."
"Lingyun, I'm Lin Shi. Do you have time? Can you come out for a moment?"
Lin Shi's voice came from the other end of the phone. Chu Lingyun was very surprised that Lin Shi called suddenly.
Chu Lingyun had been busy since their last encounter, and Lin Shi hadn't contacted him, but he suddenly called today.
"I have time, where are you?" Chu Lingyun asked immediately.
"I'm on Wutong Street. There's a Desheng Teahouse over here. If you can come out, I'll wait for you here."
Lin Shi glanced at the teahouse opposite and said casually.
"Okay, wait for me there, I'll be there soon."
Chu Lingyun looked at the time. It was not time to get off work yet, but he did not need to ask for leave to go out. The Operations Department often went on missions and would not stay in the office every day.
Besides, he was the team leader, so no one dared to ask.
Chu Lingyun didn't bring anyone with him this time. Lin Shi had been in contact with Lao Zheng and might have joined the party. Chu Lingyun was worried that he would say something he shouldn't say in a fit of anger.
Inside the teahouse, Lin Shi had requested a private room and was waiting for him.
"Lin Shi, I've been wanting to ask you out for dinner lately, but I was too busy, so I asked you to ask me out instead."
Chu Lingyun entered the private room and said with a smile. After sitting down, he said again: "I went out to eat with you a few times when I was in school. Today I will treat you."
"So generous? I've heard the Military Intelligence Department is lucrative. It looks like you've made a lot of money."
Lin Shi smiled and said that Chu Lingyun's family was good, but his parents did not give him much money, and the extra money was used by Chu Yuanchen and his wife to help poor students.
At that time, Chu Lingyun did often eat with him.
"It's okay. What do you want from me?" Chu Lingyun asked.
Lin Shi would not ask him out for no reason. If he asked him to come, there must be something.
"Lingyun, I want to borrow some money from you." After a moment of silence, Lin Shi spoke.
"Borrow money, how much?"
Chu Lingyun was a little surprised. He thought a lot on the way here. He wondered if Lin Shi had encountered any difficulties. If so, he would find a way to send him away and not let him stay in a dangerous place.
Lin Shi is still very capable and had very good results. It's a pity that he stayed in Nanjing. He could have played a greater role in the rear.
"A thousand francs?"
Lin Shi said carefully that one thousand was not a small number, but Lao Zheng had said the more the better. He didn't know the exact amount, so he could only borrow as much as possible.
"Can."
Chu Lingyun agreed immediately. One thousand French francs was not a lot for him, and he knew Lin Shi well. Lin Shi did not gamble or visit prostitutes, and generally would not ask him to borrow money.
"Thank you. I'm asking you to lend me some money because I have a promotion opportunity that I'd like to pursue."
Lin Shi felt relieved. As long as Chu Lingyun agreed, it would be fine. He was worried that Chu Lingyun would ask about it, so he racked his brains to come up with a perfect reason.
That's because he wants to move up the ladder and needs money to smooth over relationships.
In fact, he does have an opportunity for promotion, but it doesn't require that much money and he can do it himself. His current boss admires him very much and is planning to promote him.
Lin Shi graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy with excellent grades. As long as he doesn't make any mistakes, he will be able to improve quickly.
Chu Lingyun looked at him deeply, smiled and asked: "Congratulations, this is a good thing, when do you want the money?"
"Preferably today."
Lin Shi immediately replied that Lao Zheng said that medicines were urgently needed in his hometown, and he knew very well the role of medicines. The sooner they were sent over, the more comrades could be saved.
"Okay, I'll give it to you today. There's still time. Wait for me. I'll go get the money. We can find a place to drink later."
Chu Lingyun stood up without finishing the tea in front of him.
Lin Shi saw him off, and when he saw Chu Lingyun driving away, he finally felt relieved.
He didn't know if one thousand was enough, but he didn't dare ask for too much, for fear that Chu Lingyun would suspect something. If the situation wasn't special this time, he wouldn't have contacted him.
After all, Chu Lingyun is different now than before. He is in the Military Intelligence Department, which is an intelligence department.
Because of his identity, he is most afraid of dealing with such people.
Chu Lingyun came back soon and brought one thousand French francs. Lin Shi wrote an IOU. Chu Lingyun wanted to refuse, but finally accepted it.
This IOU is useless. Chu Lingyun never thought of asking Lin Shi to pay back the money he gave.
As for Lin Shi's reason for borrowing money, Chu Lingyun didn't believe it at all.
Lin Shi might really have a chance of promotion, but with his personality, he would never ask me to borrow money for such a thing, let alone tell anyone about it. Lin Shi thought of an excuse for a long time, but Chu Lingyun saw through it as soon as he said it.
It’s not his business. Lin Shi asked for so much money, it’s very likely that someone else needs it.
Lin Shi doesn't have much contact with people, and his classmates are all over the world. If a classmate or teacher has something going on, he won't hide it. The reason why he lied and found an excuse to borrow money is probably because the Red Party has this need.
The Red Party was very poor, and Chu Lingyun knew this better than anyone else.
Not long ago, they even printed some poems to use as literacy books, as they couldn’t afford normal teaching materials.
After getting the money, Lin Shi felt much more at ease and accepted Chu Lingyun's offer of wine.
After having a good meal and a drink, Chu Lingyun sent the drunk Lin Shi home, helped him to bed, covered him with a quilt, poured some water and placed it on the bedside, and then left.
Not long after Chu Lingyun left, Lin Shi sat up from the bed.
He rented an apartment on the second floor. The room was quite big. Standing at the window, he didn't see Chu Lingyun's car, so he carefully changed his clothes and went out.
He didn't notice that after he went out, a figure followed him from a distance.
"The vigilance was too low."
After following for a while, Chu Lingyun shook his head slightly. Lin Shi was not suitable for intelligence work, let alone lurking. When he went out at night, he did not take any anti-tracking actions, but only looked back occasionally. In this way, not only him, but also ordinary people would not be able to find out if they were following Lin Shi.
Fortunately, when Lin Shi was about to reach the place, he knew he needed to be careful, so he deliberately took a few detours before arriving at Lao Zheng's grocery store.
After knocking on the door a few times, Old Zheng inside quickly let him in. Watching Lin Shi go in, Chu Lingyun confirmed his guess.
Lin Shi borrowed money because of the Red Party.
He drank and pretended to be drunk today, thinking that Chu Lingyun couldn't see through it, but unfortunately, Chu Lingyun had already figured out his little tricks.
Lin Shi can drink quite a lot. Normally he seldom goes to the toilet after drinking, but today he went quite frequently.
When Chu Lingyun went to the bathroom, he smelled a strong smell of vomited alcohol.
Lin Shi seemed to have drunk a lot, but he forced himself to vomit it out after drinking, so he was not drunk at all. Since he pretended to be drunk on purpose, he must have had something to do that night.
Chu Lingyun drove away, but stopped before he had gone far and came over to stare at his door.
Sure enough, Lin Shi went to find Lao Zheng.
"Where did you get so much money?"
When Lao Zheng saw the 1,100 French francs that Lin Shi brought, he was a little dazed. He didn't expect Lin Shi to take out so much money so quickly.
The task given to him by Old Wu was one thousand French francs, and Lin Shi helped him complete it, and even exceeded the target.
"Don't worry about that. Home is more important. Buy the medicine and send it to them as soon as possible."
"Will this much money have a big impact on you?" Lao Zheng asked worriedly.
"It's okay, I'll go back first."
Lin Shi shook his head. He couldn't stay here for long.
Old Zheng watched Lin Shi leave, feeling emotional in his heart that Lin Shi was a good comrade and a good seedling, and he really helped them a lot this time.
After watching Lin Shi come out, Chu Lingyun followed him home again, made sure that there was no one following him, and finally got in the car and returned to his residence.
The next afternoon, Lao Zheng came to Lao Wu again with a smile on his face.
"Eighteen thousand, where did you get so much money?"
Old Wu was very surprised when he saw the money that Old Zheng brought. He thought that one thousand was already a lot for Old Zheng, but he didn't expect that he brought so much.
"Comrade Qingting gave me 1,100, and I borrowed some more from some of my partners."
Old Wu took the money silently, his eyes a little moist.
Qingting was indeed a good comrade. He offered great help right after joining the Party. Lao Zheng said he was borrowing money, but he actually understood that Lao Zheng probably sold some heirlooms to raise the money.
He runs a small business, and even if he could borrow money, he couldn't borrow that much in such a short time.
He is also borrowing money today, but he still hasn't gathered the 500 yuan. His network of contacts is much stronger than Lao Zheng's.
"Thank Comrade Dragonfly for me."
Old Wu turned around, pretended to pour tea, and wiped his eyes when Old Zheng wasn't paying attention.
An 8,000-word chapter, 4,000 words to congratulate Clownfish0624 for being promoted to the head of this book, and 4,000 words for an additional chapter for 2,600 monthly tickets.
