Hold His Hand

Chapter 50: Ghost Face (7)

Ordinary people in Chongcheng had a very difficult life during this period.

It took all their energy to simply live.

Now that winter is coming, but many people don't have winter clothes at home. The society that Lu Yanzhou joined plans to buy some cotton that can be used to keep out the cold and give it to the poor people.

Chongcheng was blocked, and many things could not be brought in. Fortunately, food and cotton can still be bought. They found a relationship and bought some cotton shipped from Southeast Asia. They also raised donations to collect used fabrics and find people to make cotton clothes. Then, donate to ordinary people.

Chongcheng was already occupied by Yan people, but Yan people didn't care much about it.

They need someone to work for them, and they don't plan to kill the Han people in Chongcheng. As long as these people don't cause trouble, they don't care.

What Lu Yanzhou taught in middle school was what Lu Yanzhou knew. Compared with his classmates, his organizational skills were stronger, and he was the one who paid the most... Unconsciously, he became the leader of this club.

And Lu Tao, who insisted that he was not allowed to skip classes before, did not stop him from doing this. Instead, he arranged for some people to help him and donated tens of thousands of dollars.

After being rich and wealthy, Lu Yanzhou let go of his hands and feet.

Early this morning, Lu Yanzhou went to his rented house again.

Compared with giving money directly, it is better to give money for work, so Lu Yanzhou took in some homeless children, the elderly, the disabled and women, and asked them to help him make cotton-padded clothes.

And he didn't provide anything else, just provided them with three meals a day, and gave them a place to live. Of course, if someone did a good job quickly, he would also give some copper coins as a reward.

In modern times, people like him will definitely be regarded as hateful capitalists, but in this era... these people who are taken in are grateful.

When Lu Yanzhou arrived, these people were having breakfast.

These homeless people used to wander around. They didn't know how many germs they had on them, and everyone had fleas and lice. Therefore, Lu Yanzhou made a rule that if they wanted to enter his shelter, they had to shave their heads.

After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, the disease will not easily spread among them.

At the moment, they are queuing up each with a rice bowl. After their turn, someone will give them a large bowl of porridge mixed with chopped green vegetables or pickles, and then give them a piece of salted fish.

Chongcheng is close to the sea, and the price of sea fish and salt is not expensive. Salted fish is the cheapest meat.

After they snorted, they hurried to the place of work and started making cotton-padded clothes, or doing other work.

As long as you do enough tasks above, and if you do more...they can get money!

A few bald-headed girls were excited at this moment: "It's so good here, you can eat three meals a day!"

"And fish meat."

"The clothes are warm too!"

These little girls, who were seventeen or eighteen years old, were contract laborers who came to Chongcheng from other places a few years ago.

Their family life is very difficult and they can't afford to eat. They signed a contract with the contractor several years ago to come to Chongcheng to seek a living.

At that time, the foreman said that after entering the factory, they would be able to eat and wear warm clothes, but in fact... after entering the factory, they worked more than ten hours a day, but they ate bean dregs and bran fed to pigs.

It doesn't matter, they are sick and uncomfortable, and they can't rest. If they are seriously ill, they will be thrown out to die.

There were always people dying in the factory.

Later, the Yan people occupied Chongcheng, and their factories were requisitioned by the Yan people. They lost their jobs, and they didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, they were brought here.

Although they have to shave their heads, it's not a bad thing. They used to be bitten by lice and couldn't sleep, but now they don't have this trouble anymore.

And the boss here said that when the hair grows out in the future, there is no need to shave it.

After walking around for a while, Lu Yanzhou asked people to weigh out enough food to be used for the next day's consumption, and then counted the things completed the previous day and asked them to donate them.

After doing this, he began to treat those who were sick among the people he took in.

He sent all those suffering from infectious diseases to other places to live, but the people here do not have infectious diseases, but they have some other problems. Take precautions so that their condition does not worsen.

Lu Yanzhou did not have a medical license, and rich people in Chongcheng would never seek him for medical treatment, but these people didn't care.

Lu Yanzhou's classmates didn't say anything when they saw it - what Lu Yanzhou said, they sounded quite reasonable.

They don't have the money to ask a doctor to see these people, so it's okay to let Lu Yanzhou see them casually?

While busy, one of Lu Yanzhou's classmates came in from outside: "Lu Yanzhou, someone is looking for you."

"Who is it?" Lu Yanzhou asked.

"It's called Zhou Duzhong, he has cooperated with our club before," the classmate smiled embarrassedly, "He actually came to me, but isn't the club under your control now!"

This classmate was the original president of the club that Lu Yanzhou joined.

He has the ability, but he is young and has not done a good job of Lu Yanzhou, who has never managed the company. It is not like Lu Yanzhou can get money from the Lu family. Later, he simply gave the president to Lu Yanzhou.

Weekly heavy? Lu Yanzhou was a little surprised: "What kind of cooperation have you had before?"

The former president said: "Zhou Du reopened a clinic. The doctor in his clinic is very good. He used to go to free clinics with us. I also went to him some time ago, and wanted that doctor to take time to come here to have a look. It's a pity that the doctor went back to his hometown to visit relatives, and he never came back... Alas, in this world, I don't know if the doctor will be in danger."

After listening to the former president, Lu Yanzhou probably knew the situation and got up to see Zhou Duzhong.

He had met Zhou Duzhong once, but then he made a disguise and changed his voice. Shouldn't Zhou Duzhong recognize him?

Zhou Duzhong did not recognize Lu Yanzhou.

In Zhou Duzhong's mind, Shan Cha was a very capable middle-aged man, and he would never associate Shan Cha with 18-year-old Lu Yanzhou no matter what.

Zhou Duzhong came to Lu Yanzhou this time because he wanted to buy some cotton through Lu Yanzhou's relationship: "Isn't there a war this year? The cotton production in the provinces around Chongcheng is very low, and the sericulture industry has also been affected. If the cotton and fabrics from Chongcheng can be transported out of Chongcheng, they can be sold for a lot of money..."

Before Zhou Duzhong finished speaking, the former president said, "Can we make money by doing business with you? We have a lot of people here to support and are short of money!"

Embarrassment flashed across Zhou Duzhong's face. The soldiers of the Self-Defense Regiment lacked winter clothes. He bought cotton to send them to the Self-Defense Regiment.

The former president looked at Zhou Duzhong suspiciously, and finally Lu Yanzhou, who had guessed Zhou Duzhong's plan, said, "Okay, I can help."

For something like cotton, a small amount is fine, but a large amount is really hard to buy, and it is difficult to ship it out.

But since Zhou Duzhong came to find him, there should be a way to get it out?

As for how to buy it... Lu Tao has a Westerner behind him, and a Westerner has colonies in Southeast Asia. If you follow Lu Tao's way, you can buy it.

With the help of Lu Yanzhou, Zhou Duzhong bought a lot of cotton and some medicines.

During this period, Zhou Duzhong had always been very enthusiastic towards Lu Yanzhou, obviously wanting to maintain the relationship so that he could buy things through this way next time.

Lu Yanzhou was also happy to befriend him, and the two turned out to be very good friends.

When Lu Yanzhou was busy with his own affairs in Chongcheng, the Secret Service and the Inspection Division were reprimanded again.

Zhaojun didn't catch it for a long time, which made Yan Guo's intelligence bureau very angry. They gave a death order to let the secret affairs bureau and the inspection department destroy the Daqi Chao Chongcheng command station as soon as possible.

After all, if there is no Chongcheng command station, even if Zhaojun obtains information, he may not be able to send it out.

As for Zhaojun's identity... Zhaojun recently sent some information back to the Daqi Dynasty. According to the analysis, Zhaojun is likely to be a senior member of the Yan State. Yan State General Intelligence Bureau took over.

There is a lot of pressure on the Secret Service and the Inspection Service, especially the Secret Service.

After all, the Inspection Office is mainly internal, while the Secret Service is external.

The Secret Service had no clue and could only find people by casting a wide net. Since then, the manpower was a bit short.

Lu Yanzhou also found out that no one around him was staring at him.

Thinking about it too, he is either staying in school or in a shelter, and he has no contact with big people at all, so it is naturally impossible for him to be related to Zhaojun.

As for his dissatisfaction with Yan Guo... There are many people in Chongcheng who are dissatisfied with Yan Guo, and the Secret Service is not so lenient.

Of course, if the Secret Service can benefit from it, they will manage it.

For example, not long ago, the son of a veteran businessman in Chongcheng was arrested by the Secret Service for complaining about Yan Guoren. After that, the Secret Service arbitrarily placed him on a charge, and then arrested and killed all his family members. Then it is logical to take over all the properties of this family.

Lu Tao had a bit of background. The Secret Service could not occupy the property of the Lu family, so naturally he was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Yanzhou.

No one was watching after the suspicion was cleared, so it was much easier for Lu Yanzhou to do things. He asked his father for some business and started it.

He didn't ask for anything else, just to feed the large group of people under him.

Busting around every day and exercising at night, Lu Yanzhou's muscles grew and his combat effectiveness improved a lot after wearing it for only three months.

Even with all the hot weapons he could get his hands on at the moment, he played smoothly.

At this time, the New Year is approaching, and winter has come.

In the shelter run by Lu Yanzhou and his club, it was warm.

Then a large group of people gathered in one room to work, it wouldn't be too cold, not to mention that these people were all wearing padded coats made of new cotton.

The women who have grown some hair are chatting: "My hair used to be yellow and yellow like weeds, and it would break with a gentle pull. Now the newly grown hair is jet-black."

"me too."

"Don't worry about your hair, it will be New Year's Eve in a few days. Will we be able to eat the big fat pigs marinated in the backyard?"

"It might work."

"When my father was about to die, I wanted to eat a mouthful of fatty meat, but unfortunately my family had no money, so I didn't give him anything to eat."

"When I came out of the house, the family was out of food, and I don't know if they are dead or alive now..."

"I don't even know where my home is, but I remember coming here after a long, long journey... I'm afraid I won't be able to go back in my life."

"Don't talk about that, think about the big fat pig in the backyard! Let's do more work and maybe eat an extra piece of pork!"

Eat an extra piece of pork! Everyone stopped talking and started to work.

They can eat fish every day, but they haven't eaten pork yet!

What these people are doing now is not the cotton-padded clothes used for charity at the beginning. The cotton-padded clothes and pants they make now are all sold for money.

Sold to Weekly Heavy.

If Yan Guoren succeeded in encircling and suppressing the Self-Defense Regiment before, Zhou Duzhong wanted to send things to the Self-Defense Regiment. It would be very, very difficult, but now that the Self-Defense Regiment still occupies a large area, there is an opening for him to send things there.

So, Zhou Duzhong gritted his teeth and pooled money for Lu Yanzhou to make more cotton-padded clothes.

As far as Lu Yanzhou knew, Zhou Duzhong was so poor recently that he started to treat it as his old clothes.

But it is impossible for him not to accept the money, after all, he is not the only administrator of their shelter.

The only thing he can do is to send the money in his hand to Zhou Duzhong.

But he didn't have much money at all, at least for the huge self-defense regiment, it was a drop in the bucket!

He has many ways to make a lot of money, but he can't use it at all in this day and age.

With that in mind, Lu Yanzhou went to the backyard for a stroll, checking the marinated pork.

At this time, there was no large-scale breeding industry, and the price of meat was very expensive. In the few days of the Chinese New Year, he might not be able to buy it even if he wanted to, so he bought a few pigs in advance and prepared to eat them during the Chinese New Year.

These pigs have been marinated in large tanks for a few days. Taking advantage of the good weather today, they can be taken out for drying.

While busy, one of Lu Yanzhou's classmates suddenly exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yanzhou asked.

"There is someone here!" the classmate shouted in horror.

Lu Yanzhou hurried over, only to realize that there were two people hiding in the firewood room. After being discovered by them, the two pushed them away and ran out.

"Are these two thieves? Quickly arrest them!" Lu Yanzhou's classmate said.

Lu Yanzhou just glanced at it and knew that the two could not be thieves.

That sturdy body and full of suffocation, more like Jiang Yang robber.

Since these two didn't plan to kill, it would be better for them to control less.

Lu Yanzhou didn't intend to take care of this matter, but he didn't expect that disaster would come from the sky. As soon as the two escaped, people from the Secret Service came.

It is said that the two people who have just escaped are the key criminals that the Secret Service wants to arrest.

Lu Yanzhou: "..." Those two people should be from the Chongcheng command station, right? I don't know if they escaped or not.

Of course, now is not the time to sympathize with those two people. The problem now is that the Secret Service Bureau planned to arrest them before they caught them.

The Secret Service has always been domineering!

"People escaped our pursuit only by hiding with you. Who knows if you are with them? Pack up and come with us!" The spy agency came to arrest people and stretched out their hands to tie Lu Yanzhou.

"Several adults, our young master has absolutely nothing to do with those people!" Hu Zi said as he was about to stop him.

"Huzi, get out of the way," Lu Yanzhou said, "I'll go with them."

With the urgency of the Secret Service, if he resists here, the Secret Service will definitely not forgive him!

Now they just want to arrest him alone. If the trouble continues, maybe all of them here will be kidnapped by the Secret Service.

At that time, he may not be able to rely on his father, and others may not.

But if he goes alone... his dad should be able to fish him out.

This is truly a disaster!

Lu Yanzhou was taken to the Secret Service.

After the Secret Service did not need to check Zhaojun again, they went all out to check the Chongcheng command post.

And the former deputy head of the enemy, after thinking hard, really came up with some clues - another deputy head of the Chongcheng command station once brought a sauce duck when they met. Possibly, it was bought where they were hiding!

There are quite a few shops selling sauce duck in Chongcheng, but the sauce duck is unique, and it is only sold in one place.

Holding on, someone ran away.

I also know that there must be something wrong with the person who escaped. The Secret Service hurried to chase, but the two men found the opportunity to run away. At that time, the ordinary people who were driven together by them just blocked their way. , they finally couldn't catch up and let people run away.

Later, they were about to find them with great difficulty, and the two were scared away by Lu Yanzhou and the others ahead of time.

Once again, he returned without success, and the people from the Secret Service who came to work on business knew that they would definitely eat and hang themselves when they went back, so they wanted to find a scapegoat.

Lu Yanzhou knew that his family must have money just by looking at his clothes. He would bring it back to the first trial and give it to Shangfeng, so that their lives would be better.

"Everyone, my father is Lu Tao." Lu Yanzhou was tied up, but he still tried to reason with others.

"It doesn't matter whether your father is Lu Tao or Haitao, you influenced us to arrest people!" The person who captured Lu Yanzhou was just a **** of the Secret Service, and he had never heard of Lu Tao's name.

Lu Yanzhou: "..." I'm looking forward to seeing his dad come to him soon...

Lu Yanzhou was soon taken into the Secret Service, but fortunately no one came to torture him.

On the way, he said that he was Lu Tao's son, but after all, he made the person who arrested him take care of him. After returning, he immediately went to find out who Lu Tao was.

Lu Tao has been washing his hands for many years. Although he can get along well in the arena, the Secret Service is not afraid of him, but there is no need to provoke him.

After all, it annoyed Lu Tao, Lu Tao found someone to fight with the Secret Service Bureau, and their Secret Service Bureau was also very troublesome.

Of course, this provocation means that Lu Yanzhou died at their hands... As long as Lu Yanzhou is not dead, Lu Tao will not do anything to them.

Now in Chongcheng, Yan Guocai is the biggest!

After figuring out Lu Yanzhou's identity, the Secret Service personnel immediately informed Director Li of Lu Yanzhou's arrest.

Director Li was given a lot of training these days because of his unfavorable work, even if he sent a lot of money to him, it was useless.

He was in a trance when his subordinates suddenly told him such news...

Director Li said: "Let Lu Tao send 50,000 oceans over, and then let them go!"

The Secret Service Bureau has already caught them, so of course they can't be released for nothing. Lu Tao has to bleed a little!

"Yes!" The subordinates are going to do this immediately.

"Wait!" At this time, Director Li stopped the person again.

"Chief?"

Director Li suddenly asked, "Is that Lu Tao's younger son arrested?"

"Yes."

"I remember that Lu Tao's young son has been very active recently. He has helped a lot of people. He is really a bodhisattva..." Director Li suddenly laughed, "Send him to Xie Chengze!"

"Director?" The subordinates were puzzled.

Director Li said: "Xie Chengze is very interested in him. Since we have arrested someone, let's send it to Xie Chengze!"

Xie Chengze accepted people, and if he was satisfied, he might be willing to help him speak to the General Administration.

As for how Lu Yanzhou will be treated by Xie Chengze... what does that have to do with him?

It's a pity that I can't get money from Lu Tao.

Tsk tsk, I hope Xie Chengze doesn't play too much and kill people. If that's the case, Lu Tao, the old man, will probably try his best to find Xie Chengze.
