Chapter 308: Having a meal with my wife
"Eat more. The cabinets here have been changed and the food tastes better than before."
Yu Qiuer hadn't even taken two bites when she kept picking up food for Li Shaoyi, as if she felt full just by watching Li Shaoyi eat.
"I'm really too busy in Jinling this time. Otherwise, I'll go to Pujiang to see the old man. Please explain to me that the fighting in the north is even more intense. I will go back after I finish my business in Jinling."
When he finally had some free time to talk, Li Shaoyi still had to explain to his future father-in-law.
"Father is not such a stingy person. You fought in the north, and our whole family is very honored. Father also asked me to bring a million dollars for you to take back to the north as a reward for the hero."
While Miss Yu was speaking, she took out a Central Bank draft of one million taels of silver from her bag. This father-in-law was really willing to spend money on the anti-Japanese war. Only a few months after he went back to Pujiang last time, he took out another million taels of silver.
"Don't let your family go broke because of donating money to me."
Li Shaoyi would certainly not refuse donations for the anti-Japanese war from all over the country. If one tenth of this money fell into the hands of the National Government and was used for the anti-Japanese war, that would be quite good. Now that it fell into our hands, 100% of it would be used for the anti-Japanese war, which would satisfy the wishes of those kind-hearted people.
"You underestimate our family too much. Let's not even talk about our previous businesses. Even the foreign goods business we've partnered with you has earned more than this."
Yu Qiuer said unconvincedly that girls are extroverts after all, and it is impossible for most people to talk about their family secrets so easily. However, when facing Li Shaoyi, Miss Yu was not on guard at all.
"Making money is a good thing, but you have to be careful. I'm a thorn in the side of the Japanese. Whether you and your daughter are in Jinling or Pujiang, you must ensure your safety. You must always keep the guards I send with you."
When he left last time, Li Shaoyi left behind fifty instructors, but later he felt that it was still a little unsafe, so he sent another fifty people over. Now, there are fifty people taking turns to guard the father and daughter. Li Shaoyi has also experienced the combat effectiveness of these instructors. Under normal circumstances, as long as the Japanese do not send out a large group of troops, they will basically not cause substantial damage.
"Don't worry, we won't implicate you. Just use your energy to fight the Japanese. If you can drive these devils away as soon as possible, we can also..."
When Yu Qiuer said this, Li Shaoyi pulled the girl into his arms.
His face was as red as an apple, and Li Shaoyi couldn't help it.
More than ten minutes later, Yu Qiuer finally struggled out of Li Shaoyi's arms and quickly tidied her clothes. If the waiter outside hadn't knocked on the door, she wouldn't have known what Li Shaoyi was going to do. Anyway, there were only two people in the room.
Looking at his fiancée tidying up her clothes, Li Shaoyi was also recalling the moment just now. It seemed that sometimes one had to enjoy oneself. How could he leave such a beauty alone every day?
Unfortunately, there are no transport planes now. If there were, Li Shaoyi would ask his men to modify it, and no matter where they were, they would arrive in a few hours.
Just now, except for the last procedure, all the necessary procedures were completed between the two of them.
"Oh, how embarrassing."
Yu Qiuer took out her makeup mirror and saw that her face was red.
"You clean up here for a while, I'll go out and see what's going on."
The waiters at Jinling Hotel are very polite. They will never disturb you during your meal unless they have something important to do. Someone knocked on the door just now, maybe someone wanted to come over and toast you. After all, Li Shaoyi's status is different now.
Sure enough, when Li Shaoyi went out, he saw Boss Dai with Secretary Mao, holding a wine jug in his hand.
As soon as the waiter saw the expression on Li Shaoyi's face, he knew that this room was temporarily inconvenient. The room next door happened to be empty, so he immediately led three people here. These three people were not people he could afford to offend, so they brought four small cold dishes before closing the door.
Everyone has been young and frivolous. When they learned that Li Shaoyi and Miss Yu were having dinner next door, Boss Dai and Secretary Mao looked at each other and immediately understood what was going on, but neither of them said anything.
"I'm offering this glass of wine to you as an apology. We originally agreed to hand over all the intelligence agencies in the northern provinces to you, but the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of National Defense bypassed me and issued a direct order, which is why this incident happened. Please forgive me, brother."
Boss Dai kept a low profile. After all, there was still a huge gap between the current Renaissance Society and the later Military Control Commission. Li Shaoyi was about to become a major general and a division commander, so Boss Dai still had a lot to do.
"That's understandable. In the officialdom, there are many things we don't want to happen. We just want to avoid similar incidents in the future. When I return, I'll reorganize the intelligence organizations in the northern provinces. I hope Mr. Dai can support me."
Li Shaoyi has regained his composure. He originally looked down on these intelligence organizations, but if he didn't catch them in his hands, they would be able to cause him a lot of trouble in the north.
"Of course. The agreement we reached last time is valid. Regarding the three northeastern provinces, it would be best if we could move forward quickly. Right now, the Nationalist government's intelligence on the Northeast is practically cut off, and the pressure on you, brother, is also very high. Besides our Renaissance Society, the Party Affairs Investigation Division is also getting involved in military intelligence."
Boss Dai said bitterly that this Party Affairs Investigation Section would be the future Central Bureau of Investigation. Normally, they did not have any business in this area, but in order to forcibly expand their sphere of influence, rumors had spread that they would set up their own branches in various parts of the Northeast.
"I have an idea in mind, Mr. Dai, please rest assured."
The reason why Boss Dai wanted to meet with Li Shaoyi, and chose this time, was to say this. After hearing this from Li Shaoyi, although Boss Dai was not very satisfied, Li Shaoyi was no longer the small figure he used to be. Can you still force him to come up with a plan? This is not your subordinate.
After the two finished talking about other things, Boss Dai didn't stay here any longer, knowing that Li Shaoyi's time was precious and the young couple still had something to say.
After returning to the private room and talking for a long time, Li Shaoyi sent Miss Yu back. After all, she was a girl who had received a traditional education in this era. No matter how hard Li Shaoyi tried to persuade her, some things just wouldn't work...
In desperation, Li Shaoyi could only go back to Jinling Hotel to sleep. But when he pushed the door open, he smelled a woman's scent and saw a familiar person sitting on the sofa...
