Chapter 546: Looking for Farmers Again (Seeking Monthly Tickets) (Repair)
On a street in Chongqing, Fang Boyi, a professor at Jinling University, walked out of his home. He wore a long gown and old-fashioned gold-rimmed glasses, and slowly walked towards Jinling University with his hands behind his back.
Diagonally opposite his house, there was a Western restaurant. Ning Zhiheng was wearing plain clothes, sitting in his seat and looking down at the newspaper. A cup of hot coffee was placed on the table.
Ning Zhiheng found out from his third brother Ning Zhiming that Fang Boyi, a professor at Jinling University, also came to Chongqing with the relocation of Jinling University, so he decided to come to him. He wanted to follow Fang Boyi's line to find farmer Xia Deyan to take back the contact with the underground organization again.
Ning Zhiheng watched Fang Boyi's figure disappear, hesitated for a moment, but did not follow. Fang Boyi's situation was very special, and Ning Zhiheng naturally could not mobilize personnel from the Operation Department to follow him, even if he was his most trusted confidant Sun Jiacheng, and Sun Jiacheng is now staying by Tan Jinhui's side and intensifying training for him, and he can't separate for the time being.
As for the others, he couldn't believe it, so he had to follow up on this job himself. However, his time was too tight, and it was difficult to keep track of Fang Boyi. After thinking for a long time, Ning Zhiheng decided to try his luck first. If he really couldn't find clues to the farmer's location, he could only let Liu Datong and Chen Yanqing look for it. However, this would take certain risks and was very unsafe. He would not do this unless he had to.
Ning Zhiheng put away the newspaper, placed a banknote on the table, stepped out of the Western restaurant, looked around, and began to search for the nearby streets with Fang Boyi's home as the center.
He kept walking along the street, with his main goals being tea houses and tea houses opened on both sides of the street. The farmer is engaged in tea business in Nanjing City. His years of business experience have made him very familiar with the tea industry. If he is asked to choose a place in Chongqing to conceal his identity, then nothing is most suitable than opening a tea house and tea house.
Because in Chongqing, the streets are full of teahouses and tea houses. The residents here love to drink tea, especially in teahouses. This is the biggest characteristic industry in Chongqing. People of all walks of life, all walks of life, all kinds of different identities have the habit of going to teahouses to drink tea every day. They go to the teahouse to rest, taste tea, chat, make friends and discuss matters. Teahouses are the main occasions for people to socialize. It can be said that teahouses and tea houses are spread all over the streets and alleys of Chongqing. Of course, this is also the most easiest place for intelligence officers to hide and move.
Ning Zhiheng did not enter every teahouse and teahouse to check it carefully, and he did not have this time. He simply looked at the signs and facades, and gave up the old signs for a while. If they were new signs and facades, it means that they were opened recently. He would write down the name and location on paper, and then go in and look for various excuses to check it out, trying to find the figure of the farmer.
Time passed by little by little. After walking all day, Ning Zhiheng walked through several nearby streets, looked at the teahouse and tea house recorded in his hand and wrote a page, and couldn't help but shake his head. This efficiency was too low.
He didn't expect that there were so many teahouses in Chongqing, which was the most exaggerated. When there were a street and alley at the most, there were more than ten teahouses. Even if he had screened them for a long time, there were too many targets to find. Should he change his mind and check it? It would take too time to do this.
What Ning Zhiheng lacks most at this time is time. He is waiting for the two directors to return to Chongqing and explain their work clearly. Then he must set off to Shanghai to preside over the work. Chongqing really cannot stay for too long.
But he had no other good idea for the time being. Until the end, he didn't want to deal with others. Ning Zhiheng secretly decided to search for two more days. If there was no progress, he could only risk using Liu Datong and Chen Yanqing. He had to find the farmer before leaving Chongqing.
In the next two days, he kept shuttled back and forth across the streets from near to far with Fang Boyi's residence. As long as there were newer signature teahouses and tea houses, he went in and took a look, but he couldn't find a farmer.
On the afternoon of the third day of work, Ning Zhiheng finally prepared to give up. With his own strength in this city, it was really difficult to find a farmer.
Just as he finished his search work and was about to leave, he found a tea shop on the north side of the street in front of him. So he walked up to check, looked up at the sign, and was stunned.
The signboard of this tea shop is a newly engraved wooden plaque with the words "Qingshi Tea Village" written on it. Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He was almost certain that this was the place he had been looking for.
Hard work pays off, and finally I didn’t waste my energy. Otherwise, even if I really asked Liu Datong to do this, even if I found a farmer, there would be many troubles.
At this time, Xia Deyan, the shopkeeper of the Qingshi Tea House, was also sitting at the window on the side of the store, looking at the pedestrians outside the street, and a pot of tea was placed on the small table beside him.
Since he received the last message from Shadow more than a year ago, he has withdrawn from Nanjing soon. With the relocation of Jinling University in Chongqing, his online Fang Boyi has also been arranged by the organization to come to Chongqing to preside over underground work and form a new underground organization.
As an intelligence officer directly led by Fang Boyi, Xia Deyan also came to the mountain city of Chongqing, lurked, and reopened a tea shop with ease to cover up his identity.
Xia Deyan didn't know if Shadow could find himself as he said, but he was Shadow's only liaison officer. In order to facilitate Shadow to find his whereabouts, Xia Deyan decided to use the original signature name, Qingshi Tea Village!
Xia Deyan knew that Shadow was an agent of the Central Party Investigation Office, and from the situation he had mastered and the funds he had transferred, it can be seen that Shadow should also have a high status in the Central Party Investigation Office.
As far as he knows, the Central Party Investigation Office has been reorganized into the Central Executive Committee Investigation and Statistics Bureau, referred to as the Central Administration Bureau, and has been withdrawn to Chongqing a few months ago. According to the level of shadow, it should be in the rank of retreat. At this time, it should be in the mountain city of Chongqing. However, after so long, the shadow has not appeared to contact him for a long time. For more than a year, will there be any accidents happening in the middle? Or he has not found himself at all?
But he must persist in any case. The importance of shadow is definitely worth his doing so. Being able to install such an important insider in the Central Bureau of Control is strategic, which has been specifically reflected in the previous few actions.
Moreover, his superior Fang Boyi is currently the underground leader of Chongqing. He puts all his hope of retrieving the shadow on Xia Deyan and never arranges Xia Deyan to do other intelligence work, just because he is afraid that something will happen to him and the shadow will lose contact. Therefore, Xia Deyan’s only task is to wait for the shadow to appear.
It was getting late and there were fewer pedestrians on the road. At this time, a young man walked into the Qingshi Tea House. The guy hurried forward and greeted, "Sir, what do you want to order?"
The young man just smiled faintly and did not speak. Instead, he looked around in the store. His eyes swept over Xia Deyan who was drinking tea at the window, and he was facing Xia Deyan's eyes in the air. The two of them nodded slightly and signaled politely. The young man then came to the counter and said, "My man, give me two liang of Longjing."
"You have to! Wait for a moment!" The guy replied attentively, turning around and weighing the tea skillfully.
Although Ning Zhiheng's accent is not a Sichuan voice, people from all over the country are now gathered in Chongqing. The accents are very diverse and complicated. Xia Deyan didn't find it strange. He sat aside and watched the young man pay the money quietly. Without a moment of stay, he turned around and left and disappeared quickly.
Xia Deyan watched the young man leave, and suddenly felt that he felt something in his heart, but could not find any reason. He had to shake his head slightly, pick up the tea cup in his hand, take a sip of tea, and then look at the scenery outside the window.
Ning Zhiheng left Qingshi Tea House and walked a long way. Seeing that there was no one on the left, he then took apart the tea bag in his hand and threw it into the garbage dump, clapped his hands, and then turned around and left.
The moment he saw Xia Deyan, Ning Zhiheng confirmed his judgment. After finding the farmer, he could reconnect with the organization. He finally felt at ease.
It can also be seen that the farmer was waiting for his news. He tried his best to retain the name of the Qingshi Tea House, just to leave an important clue for himself. Fortunately, he did not disappoint him and finally came to him.
In the next few days, Ning Zhiheng started to go to and from get off work normally. Fortunately, Wei Liangbi handled the general affairs, and there were not many official duties that he needed to deal with. He could free up his hands to guide Tan Jinhui's imitation training himself.
Through this period of training, Tan Jinhui made great progress and quickly integrated into the role. Both Shen Yun and temperament were imitated in a very good manner, but he did not make much progress in his accent. However, such things are not achieved in a hurry and can only be improved slowly.
Half a month later, the battle situation developed faster than expected. Xinyang was finally captured by the Japanese army, and the Pinghan Railway was cut off. Our army had no choice. Next, we should gradually retreat, preserve our strength, and fight again. The entourage of the bureau as the chairman of the board remained in Wuhan and arranged the retreat. Deputy Director Huang Xianzheng finally retreated to Chongqing first.
Ning Zhiheng and Wei Liangbi led a team to welcome Huang Xianzheng's arrival at the airport. After the headquarters's lecture, Huang Xianzheng was taken by Ning Zhiheng to the mansion that had been prepared long ago.
