After school, Meng Fanxing went to Lan Liying's house to study English on a routine basis.

"Meimei, do you still remember that there is a Yimin clinic on Annan Road?"

"Yimin Clinic on Annan Road." Meng Fanxing recalled carefully. It seemed that he had a little impression, but the impression was not so deep.

"Dr. Duan Yimin from Yimin Clinic has been missing for three days."

"Miss Liying, tell me, is this doctor ours?" Meng Fanxing immediately reacted and asked hurriedly.

"Strictly speaking, Dr. Duan is not our person, but he is secretly doing things for us. His clinic is a point of contact for us."

"What, Sister Liying, how do you know?"

"Meimei, before I came to serve as a full-time radio operator for you, I often went to Yimin Clinic. My mother was in poor health and the cost of going to the hospital was too expensive, so we, the old Duan, met very early." Lan Liying explained, "Once again, our people were chased and injured by the Military Affairs Bureau spies. The big hospital dared not go to Yimin Clinic. Later, I learned that Yimin Clinic is a secret transportation station for us."

"Doctor Duan knows how much we are?"

"I don't know, my organizational relationship is gone, and I don't understand the situation of this line at all. According to the discipline of underground work, I shouldn't care about this matter." Lan Liying said.

"Then how did you know that Dr. Duan has been missing for three days?"

"Today I got home from get off work at the customs office. I passed by there and saw the clinic closed and listened to people outside talking about it." Lan Liying explained.

"Sister Liying, do you want to ask what happened at home?" Meng Fanxing suggested. Although it was a bit of a violation of discipline, if his comrade was really arrested, then just stand by and do nothing, it would be too cold-blooded.

"I just want to ask you to discuss this matter, and I can't make up my mind." Lan Liying said, "Doctor Duan knows many people. His sudden disappearance is not a trivial matter. If there is a problem, the loss will be great."

"Sister Liying, let's ask. Even if we are punished by our superiors, we will accept it!" Meng Fanxing thought for a while and said decisively.

...

Yan'an, a cave.

"Study the piano randomly, what's going on with this woodpecker? She doesn't know what her task is for? Do she also need to organize discipline? The seagull is like this. There is no principle at all, so she will make trouble with her!" The minister slapped the table and said angrily.

"Minister, they are also worried that if this Yimin clinic is really our transportation station, then they find that the person is missing but do not report it. Who is responsible for the losses? The struggle in Shanghai is complicated, and it is not easy for comrades who work in the heart of the enemy."

"You mean, you have to indulge them?" The minister was very angry.

"Comrade Minister, let's ask first what the situation is. We cannot judge the problem based on subjectiveness here." said the Director of Intelligence.

"Then send a telegram to ask about the Eighth Office of Shanghai immediately and ask about the situation."

"yes."

...

There will be no reward for the news for a while, and Meng Fanxing can't stay at Lan Liying's house forever. Seeing that it was getting late, she had no choice but to go home first.

Some things, even though they were a couple, Meng Fanxing could only hide them in his stomach and could not tell Lu Xiyan.

This is organizational discipline and is strictly stipulated in the "Regulations on Confidentiality" for underground work. Even if a couple is a party member, it is strictly prohibited to talk about party secrets between couples.

"Meimei, I came back a little early today?"

"Well, the final exam is about to be held. Sister Liying said that you can learn English slowly, but you can't be careless in the exam. Let me have more time to come back and review my homework."

"That's right, Meimei, come with me, I'll discuss it with you if I have something to do." Lu Xiyan pulled Meng Fanxing into the study.

"What's the matter?"

"How much money is left in the company's account?" Lu Xiyan asked.

"It's 500,000 or 600,000, what's wrong? Do you want to use the money?" Meng Fanxing said in surprise.

"A little less."

"Our batch of goods has drained most of the working capital, and the opening of branches and pharmacies. Next year, you plan to open branches in Chongqing, Kunming and other places. At least some of the funds have to be recovered before expansion is expanded. Otherwise, if you expand blindly, once the capital chain breaks, we will go bankrupt." Meng Fanxing said.

"Meimei, I have some money in my hand, but its origin is unknown. Can we whiten him?"

"You want to launder money?" Meng Fanxing said in surprise, "No, where does this money come from?"

"Iron Blooded Anti-Traits Group."

"You want to take other people's money for yourself?"

"No, you're thinking too much. They want to invest in the money, but the money is very scattered and has unknown origin. Once someone investigates it, it will inevitably cause us trouble. I mean, I want to give this money a clean identity." Lu Xiyan said, "Do you have any solutions?"

"It can stand the investigation and will not be suspected, right?" Meng Fanxing understood, but he just couldn't find out that the money had anything to do with the "Iron Blood Anti-Trait Group".

"Are you fictitious?"

"No, it's okay to deal with investigations from ordinary people, but if you want to hide from professional intelligence agencies, you're afraid it won't work." Lu Xiyan said.

"Then find someone who is not afraid of investigation and has the ability to hold it."

“It must be reliable.”

"Uncle Xi!" The two of them spoke almost in unison.

The former cotton textile king left a huge amount of wealth, no one would doubt that Xi Hongwei and the Meng family were in-laws, reliable and trustworthy.

Moreover, Xi Hongwei and his wife have arrived in the United States, and they just need to greet them and keep the secret. Even if someone chased them to the United States for investigation, they could not find anything.

"The heroes have the same view. If we sell part of the cotton we have in our hands, we will probably raise 5 million. Tang Jin doesn't know how much there is or how much we can get. I don't care. We must have the right to speak!" Lu Xiyan said.

"You really want to eat up Thor's industry in China?"

"It probably won't work if you eat them all. Saul himself will retain some shares, but if you want to reach the controlling valuation, it is estimated that at least 15 million will be required at the current valuation of Laian Foreign Company." Lu Xiyan said.

"So much!" Meng Fanxing was shocked.

"It depends on how much power Tang Jin has." Lu Xiyan said, "We need to raise at least 10 million yuan of funds. It is not enough, so we can borrow some from the bank."

"As such a large sum of money, are you sure we can make money after we take it?"

"Yes, I've calculated that the concession is now flooding with a large population, and so many people have to spend money on food, clothing, housing and transportation. I plan to change my mind and not develop high-end apartments, and instead design and build compact civilian residential buildings. One family is not big, with thirty or forty square meters. We can sell or rent them. As long as the price we set is reasonable, the returns are absolutely objective." Lu Xiyan said his thoughts.

"What you said seems to make sense. The concession is now overcrowded, and the demand for renting is very strong. The rent will increase almost every month. If there is such a small space that can live in people and have cheap housing, it will definitely be very popular." Meng Fanxing said.

"I'm afraid it's a famous architectural design office like Lai'an Foreign Company who is unwilling to lower his posture to design such a house?"

"If you don't want to, you can ignore it. Let's learn the majesty of a capitalist!" Lu Xiyan said domineeringly.

"We will first set up an investment fund company, with three shareholders currently listed. We, Tang Jin, and Uncle Xi, who represents the Iron Blood Anti-Traitor Group..."

"Do you want Xiaohao and Mengyao to know about this?"

"Don't tell them quickly. It's not too late to tell them when we have everything ready. It's better to keep it confidential now." Lu Xiyan thought for a while.

Meng Fanxing also felt that it was not appropriate to tell them now, so it would be better to slow down.

"What's going on with that pharmaceutical factory?"

"I have thought about it. We won't do it for the pharmaceutical factory, but we can do the license approval documents first. Let's set up a small workshop first, similar to a small workshop. If it succeeds, we will expand it. Meimei, what do you think?" Lu Xiyan said.

"Well, what you said makes sense." Meng Fanxing nodded.

...

Lu Xiyan didn't expect that his thoughts were severely criticized when he came to Hu Yunzhi's side.

"Comrade Lu Xiyan, have you fallen into the eyes of money and do anything to make money? Do you want to be a big capitalist and exploit the working people?"

"I said Lao Hu, your hat is too big. I think it's right to make money, but who do I make money for? Is it for myself? Besides, if this matter is done, at least the rent on the market can be 30%, and more people can afford to rent a house, the housing prices will drop, and the lives of ordinary people will be much better." Lu Xiyan said.

"Are you really trying to reduce the rent?" Hu Yunzhi didn't believe it very much.

"Old Hu, I'll settle the score for you, and you'll understand..."

"Thinking this way, you will recover the cost in less than ten years, and then you will make all your money?" Hu Yunzhi was extremely surprised. This money was too easy to make.

"At least fifteen years, I have to reduce various costs in the meantime. I have to be responsible for management and repairs. The net income will be at least fifteen years later." Lu Xiyan said, "If you make this money, it will not be my personal pocket. You have to buy materials to support the War of Resistance."

"You really think so?"

"Comrade Lao Hu, do you really think I fell into the money eye and have no political awareness at all?" Lu Xiyan said, "What do I want so much money to do? I still have no place to live, no food to eat, no clothes to wear. In fact, I am better than most people, right?"

Hu Yunzhi nodded, Lu Xiyan was right.

"Your idea is too bold."

"The organization can send people to supervise me, and I need manpower here too." Lu Xiyan made a request. If I really want to do this, there will be really a lack of manpower.

"Well, it's good for you to have this idea." Hu Yunzhi saw that Lu Xiyan took the initiative to ask his superiors to send someone to supervise, and his suspicion of his selfishness was reduced by half.

"We can ask our superiors for instructions and wait for instructions." Hu Yun's way.

"Okay." Lu Xiyan nodded. He couldn't make decisions about this matter without authorization, after all, he was an organized person.
