Chapter 966: Secret Whisper

Cheng Qianfan's heart stirred. He thought of the owner of Fangyun Daily Grocery Store who he met on the 76th during the day and was coerced into the yard by the agents.

He suspected that the person Lao Huang said was captured by the enemy and taken to No. 76 was the boss Shan.

 Lao Huang went to meet the "charterer" this afternoon. Therefore, a comrade fell into the clutches of No. 76. This information came from Comrade Fang Jinghua.

The organizational relationship of the special party branch in the French Concession is in the Yanzhou headquarters and has no direct reporting relationship with the Shanghai local party organization. Or to put it more bluntly, the 'Huo Miao' party branch has extremely high security weight. If it is not an urgent matter, the Shanghai local party organization The party organization will not seek help from the 'Flame' party branch.

Now Lao Huang can't even wait for tomorrow, and chooses to use the method of singing opera to convey information to him. This shows that the identity of this comrade captured by the enemy is very important, or his job position is very critical, or most likely, through this People can involve the top leaders of the Shanghai party organization.

 To put it in almost cold words, if a comrade with ordinary status is arrested, the local party organization will not seek help from the special party branch in the French Concession at the risk of potentially posing safety risks to Cheng Qianfan and others.

“Lao Huang, you old guy.” Cheng Qianfan pointed at Lao Huang’s nose and laughed and cursed, “You must be greedy because of the good wine Lao Jiu got.”

He smiled and said, "That's right, this is not the bad wine you buy at the grocery store."

Everyone laughed. Although Lao Huang's salary is not too much, it is not too little either. It is more than enough for one person to live on. However, this old guy is too drunk. The salary cannot withstand his heavy drinking every day, so The rule of Lao Huang's drinking is that when his salary comes down, he buys Shaoxing old wine in the first half of the month, Ningbo rice wine in the middle of the month, and if he still has some money in the second half, he buys the local Shikumen old wine in Shanghai. If his pocket is clean, he can only go to the grocery store. The store bought a small brand of rice wine on credit.

 Yes, in the eyes of Shanghai's "local drinkers" like Lao Huang, Shaoxing old wine is the best.

In the 13th year of the Republic of China, "Current Affairs News" once analyzed the consumption of yellow rice wine in Shanghai: "Shaojiu is the best wine commonly consumed in Shanghai, followed by Ningbo wine, and the original wine drinkers are very rare."

Hearing Cheng Qianfan mention the "Japanese Grocery Store", Lao Huang glanced at Cheng Qianfan and felt overjoyed. He was also very pleased with the tacit understanding between himself and Comrade Huo Miao.

"What happened to the grocery store?" Lao Huang immediately understood what Comrade Huo Miao meant. He argued while smelling drunk, "Old Huang has no money, and he can't just drink at Shao Bar. Occasionally go to the grocery store, and occasionally That’s all.”

 This is an answer to Cheng Qianfan’s coded question.

Cheng Qianfan understood that it was the shopkeeper Shan.

“This old man from Wuxi is said to be as good as Shaojiu.” Cheng Qianfan added, “Old Huang, you drink well.”

 Lu Jiufan used Wuxi Laoyou yellow wine for today’s birthday banquet.

There are many kinds of rice wines, but the one with the best quality and the best reputation is undoubtedly the Jianhu rice wine produced in the core area of ​​Shaoxing.

The "Shenbao" published in the sixth year of the Republic of China vividly summed it up: "The beauty of Shaoxing wine's quality makes it the best in my country's 100 wines. It has been known as the king of wine since ancient times. There are many people who are addicted to it and it sells widely."

And because of the high status of Shaoxing wine, "Shaojiu" is even used as a synonym for rice wine. In the 24th year of the Republic of China, Cheng Hanzhang wrote in the common sense reader "Drinks": Rice wine "is the most famous produced in Shaoxing, Zhejiang, so It is also commonly known as Shaoxing wine.

In Lao Huang’s world of wine, Shaoxing Jianhu Yellow Wine is sacred and irreplaceable.

 So, when he heard what Cheng Qianfan said, Lao Huang was not happy.

"Shaojiu is very important in Lao Huang's heart." Lao Huang said with a wine burp. Then he felt that his words did not make Lu Jiu look bad, so he smiled and said, "Of course, Wuxi Laojiu is also very good. .”

 Cheng Qianfan’s words just now seemed to be teasing Lao Huang, and he seemed to be asking Shaojiu, but in fact he was asking Boss Dan.

Cheng Qianfan got the answer. The single boss arrested by No. 76 was "very important."

"Just drink your Wuxi old man." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, "I went back to the patrol room to touch the Shaoxing wine in your room."

 Everyone laughed.

 Lao Huang is also laughing.

Cheng Qianfan stood up and raised the glass of wine, "Lao Jiu, brothers, please drink slowly. I'll excuse you now."

Seeing 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' stand up, five or six tables of patrol officers, detectives, and friends from the martial arts world all quickly raised their glasses and stood up to see him off.

 Cheng Qianfan drank a full glass of wine, wiped his mouth, clasped his fists towards everyone, and left under the protection of Haozi and several bodyguards.

Cheng Qianfan looked at several bodyguards and said, "Haozi, follow me. On a nice day, you can stay and have a bar."

 Speaking, he waved his hands and went straight downstairs.

Several bodyguards looked at each other, wondering whether they should follow him or not.

Mr. Xiao Cheng attaches great importance to personal safety (fear of death). As everyone knows, it seems that he is a little drunk now. If he doesn't follow him, Mr. Xiao Cheng will be sober and angry and they will not protect him well. If he follows, Xiao Cheng will He has a bad temper and will get angry when he says the same thing.

　　"You sit down and have a drink, I'll follow." Hao Zai wiped his mouth, whispered something into Lu Jiufan's ear, and said something like sorry.

Lu Jiufan expressed his understanding, and naturally he would not be angry. Cheng Qianfan is the backbone of their small group, and Xiao Cheng is always there. They are the most famous force in the French Concession. If something happens to Xiao Cheng, everyone's life will be in trouble. Not having a good time.

 …

 The moon is bright and the stars are rare.

 Cheng Qianfan raised his head and looked at the sky.

 He slapped his forehead.

 “Brother Fan.” Li Hao came over to help.

"It's okay." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and pointed to the car, "Let's go."

“Brother Fan, are you going home?” Haozi started the vehicle and turned to ask Brother Fan.

At this time, Haozi also caught up, opened the door and got in the car.

 “Not an idiot.” Haozi teased Haozi.

Hao Zai smiled and said, "Smarter than you."

 Brother Fan was considerate of his subordinates and asked the bodyguard to stay and have a drink. If Hao Zi didn't have the consciousness to take the initiative to stand up, he would be stupid.

 “Don’t make any noise.” Cheng Qianfan pressed his temple.

When Haozi and Haozi saw Brother Fan getting angry, they immediately shut up and did not dare to fight anymore.

Cheng Qianfan was restless inside. He said to Lao Huang, "I'm going to steal the Shaoxing wine in his room," which meant that he had left the business of shopkeeper Shan to him.

This being given to him does not mean that the person must be rescued immediately.

 Inquiring into information and determining the current situation of shopkeeper Shan is the first priority:

Has your identity been discovered by the enemy?

 Have you withstood the enemy’s torture?

  Or some other situations.

 Actually, Cheng Qianfan is quite troubled now.

 To inquire about the situation, from his point of view, he had to contact the secret service headquarters.

 He just left the secret service headquarters angrily today.

 Xiao Cheng always wants to save face.

If he had come forward so rashly without a proper reason, how could Li Cuiqun not feel that it was strange given his cunningness?
