My years of espionage

Chapter 138

Xia Wenqiao clapped his hands.

Someone came in with a food box.

Opening the food box, there are crystal clear steamed buns inside, no more, no less, exactly ten.

Cheng Qianfan smiled, picked up a small steamed bun with his fingers, and put it in his mouth.

"Thin skin is delicious, delicious and juicy." Cheng Qianfan's eyes lit up, "Nanxiang steamed buns from Chenghuang Temple." (PS1)

Nanxiang Mantou originated in Nanxiang Town, Jiading County, Shanghai.

The shape of Nanxiang steamed buns is small and exquisite, the skin is thin and translucent, the fillings inside are carefully selected, and the seasoning is exquisite. After steaming, they are plump and contain marinade. They are delicious and have long been famous in Nanxiang County.

Later, the owner of Nanxiang steamed buns came to Shanghai’s Chenghuang Temple in the early Republic of China and opened a Changxing steamed bun shop, specializing in this kind of Nanxiang steamed buns.

"Brother Cheng is wrong." Xia Wenqiao shook his head, "The steamed buns from Nanxiang are genuine, but they were not bought from Chenghuang Temple. Third brother, I just want this one, so I can only invite a master chef from Changxing to make it at home."

"Since that's the case, Third Brother Xia is used to it, so if you don't miss these two bites, I'll be presumptuous." Cheng Qianfan smiled and picked up another small steamed bun, eating it happily.

Xia Wenqiao sneered when he heard this, and cursed in his heart, not knowing what to do.

……

The two had something to say just now.

Xia Wenqiao said that if he wants to eat someone's food, it's not a matter of eating a bowl or two. If he wants to eat, even the cook can be tied to the house. Therefore, how much you should get paid is up to you.

What Cheng Qianfan meant was that you, Xia Wenqiao, manage such a big stall, and your mouth is already full of greasy food, so you don't need a bite or two, just to save face.

Xia Wenqiao sneered: How old are you when you ride a horse?

Xia Wenqiao watched Cheng Qianfan eat non-stop. He had already eaten six small steamed buns, and finally his face became more and more gloomy.

Just as Cheng Qianfan was about to twist the seventh Nanxiang steamed bun, Xia Wenqiao grabbed Cheng Qianfan's wrist.

"Brother Cheng, it's almost time, be careful and spit it out."

Cheng Qianfan glanced at the four remaining steamed buns, Xia Wenqiao meant to monopolize [-]% of the bonus.

He sneered, "Brother Xia, Second Lieutenant Pete just got married, and he often complains to me that it will be difficult to support his family in the future."

Xia Wenqiao's eyes flickered, "I'm afraid Second Lieutenant Pete is a foreigner, and he is not used to Chinese food."

However, the right hand holding Cheng Qianfan's wrist was released.

Cheng Qianfan gently picked up the seventh steamed bun, swallowed it in one gulp, but reached out to take it again.

"Brother Cheng, it's over!" Xia Wenqiao said with a cold face.

"Don't hide it from Third Brother Xia, Teacher Xiu..."

"Cheng Qianfan, don't go too far!" Xia Wenqiao slapped the table, "My third son Xia has already offered you the honor of repairing the translation. Otherwise, would you be able to eat the sixth steamed bun?"

"Brother Xia, you are too impatient." Cheng Qianfan smiled, but his eyes were cold, "Qianfan is under the care of the teacher, and the burden on him is a bit heavier."

He stared at Xia Wenqiao, "I have done a lot of work, and if I don't eat enough, how can I have strength?"

……

Xia Wenqiao looked at Cheng Qianfan, thinking quickly in his mind:
Cheng Qianfan was promoted?

Inspector?

Impossible, Xiu Gongshen would not be so radical, and Cheng Qianfan is definitely not an idiot who only cares about immediate interests.

Then, the biggest possibility is the deputy inspector.

That's right, Jin Kemu was promoted to the deputy chief inspector of the Central Police Department, and the post of inspector has been temporarily held by himself.

Then, the biggest possibility is that deputy inspector Ma Yishou will be promoted to inspector.

And Cheng Qianfan was exceptionally promoted to deputy inspector.

At this moment, a subordinate came in and whispered something to Xia Wenqiao.

When Cheng Qianfan came to visit, Xia Wenqiao sent someone to inquire about the news. Now that the news came back, Ma Yishou will be promoted to the third inspector of the central police station, and Cheng Qianfan will soon be the deputy inspector of the third patrol. .

Xia Wenqiao took a deep look at Cheng Qianfan. If I remember correctly, this kid should have been born in the fourth year of the Republic of China, and now it is the 25th year of the Republic of China.

The 22-year-old (false) deputy inspector of the police station!
In addition, Xia Wenqiao had a good understanding of the situation of the patrols. Ma Yishou did not have the ability to be the patrol chief, and Ma Yishou did not have a deep background.

In this way, Cheng Qianfan, the deputy inspector, has almost the same authority as the inspector.

"Brother Xia, can Cheng eat this steamed bun?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a gentle smile.

Xia Wenqiao shook his head lightly.

Seeing Cheng Qianfan's expression changed, he laughed out loud, picked up one of the remaining three small steamed buns, put it in his mouth, and then pushed the food box with the remaining two small steamed buns, "One How can you be full, brother Cheng, please!"

……

Seeing this, the subordinates standing on the side were very surprised, and looked at their boss again and again.

It's just a deputy inspector. Brother Xia not only gave up [-]% of the profit, but also gave up an extra [-]% of the profit!

Cheng Qianfan, the deputy inspector, actually has more face than Xiu Gongshen and Pete?

Xia Wenqiao saw the expressions on his subordinates, but he ignored them.

Xiu Gongshen's face is worth [-]% bonus.

The face of Pete, the deputy squad leader of the investigation team of the Political Department of the French Concession, is worth [-]% of the bonus.

Cheng Qianfan, the deputy inspector, although his position is far inferior to that of Xiu Gongshen and Pete, is also worth ten percent:

Xiu Gongshen has a high position and light authority.

Pete is a Frenchman. The French seem to be the masters of the French Concession, and they have great power. However, the real thing is to rely on the Chinese. Moreover, the Political Department of the French Concession is mainly to arrest the Red Party and spies from various countries. It is a deterrent to the Green Gang. Average strength.

Therefore, regardless of the lower ranks of inspectors and deputy inspectors, the inspectors are directly responsible for the work of public security, arrests, and door closures. This is the real inferiority.

Although the Qing Gang is not afraid of patrols, most of the patrols are related to the Qing Gang, and many of them are gang members.

However, everything is about harmony and wealth.

The deputy inspector is already barely qualified to go to the negotiating table to seek benefits for himself.

Cheng Qianfan, the deputy inspector, has a background and ability, and Xia Wenqiao thinks he is worth [-]% of the bonus.

As for the extra [-]% bonus, it was Xia Wenqiao who gave it to Cheng Qianfan at his own discretion. This has something to do with Cheng Qianfan being the deputy inspector, but it has nothing to do with it.

Without him, he is optimistic about this person.

……

Cheng Qianfan looked at the two Nanxiang buns pushed in front of him.

He picked up a small steamed bun, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp.

He picked up the last remaining little steamed bun.

Xia Wenqiao's subordinates looked at Cheng Qianfan with angry eyes.

Xia Wenqiao smiled, held out his hand to give it away, and signaled Cheng Qianfan to continue to enjoy it.

Cheng Qianfan, on the other hand, smiled, took a bite, ate half of it, then held up his hand that was soaked in marinated soup, and passed the other half over, "Brother Xia, Qianfan always only eats [-]% full, and can't eat that much , if the third brother doesn't dislike it..."

This is the meaning of the half bonus that Cheng Qianfan took the initiative to give up.

Xia Wenqiao took a deep look at Cheng Qianfan, then burst out laughing, grabbed the half of the steamed bun, stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it in one gulp, "I don't like a ball, sir."

As he said, he clasped his fists together, "Brother Cheng, pay attention to people! I recognize you as a friend, third brother."

PS1: Mantou at this time refers to meat buns, also called meat buns.Nanxiang Xiaomantou is now Nanxiang Xiaolongbao.

What everyone calls white steamed buns now was called steamed buns at that time.
