Rebirth of the Republic of China

They stopped and stopped along the way, but they didn't encounter any danger, and went back to Yu Zhannan's house in the Shanghai Concession smoothly.

It's just that when we arrived, it was already past eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.As soon as the three of them reached the entrance of the alley, they greeted Nie Jian'an and Yu Yibo.

"Father, Uncle Shao, Uncle Quan, you are back. We thought something happened to you, so we were going out to have a look." Yu Yibo had sharp eyes, and at the end of the dark alley, he saw several people walking this way. personal.

Nie Jian'an ran after him, and was relieved to see that Shao Xintang was safe and sound.

"They're all back?" Yu Zhannan asked as he walked, holding Shao Xintang's arm.

Nie Jian'an stepped forward to pick up Shao Xintang who was about to collapse from exhaustion.Yu Yibo reported to his father: "I came back early, and they are all resting in the house. They wanted to come out to look for you, but I didn't let them. I was afraid that so many of them would always be seen in the alley. Just me I went out with my brother to look for it."

Yu Zhannan glanced at him appreciatively, and said, "The bed is ready, your Uncle Shao is exhausted."

"It's already ready." Yu Yibo replied.

This section of the road is too long, and they can't hire a car. If they can meet an ox-drawn cart on the road, they can give a ride, but they didn't meet any of them. Was carried for a while.They walked for a while and rested for a while, and they came back so late.

Fortunately, the house in Zhannan Lease is bigger, and it is not too crowded for dozens of people to live there.At that time, I wanted the two children and Sun Dequan's family to go abroad first, but these people refused to go, and kept hiding in the concession, but they were not affected by the war.

Xiaorui put Xiaoshitou to sleep, and cooked a large table of dishes for them.As soon as she entered the room, Xiaorui saw the three of them disfigured, tired and haggard, and she was so distressed that she almost couldn't shed tears.

Shao Xintang was really too tired. He had never experienced such a long period of extreme fatigue in his two lifetimes. His body was almost exhausted. Looking at a large table of delicious food, his stomach was rumbling and he had no appetite at all.He just needs to rest now.

Shao Xintang was so tired that she didn't even eat, but insisted on washing her face.Yu Zhannan followed him into the house, saw that his pretty face was covered with dust, pale and haggard, so he said distressedly: "Go to sleep, I will wipe your face for you."

Yu Zhannan soaked the towel in hot water, then took it out and wrung it dry.God knows he's never done such a job in his life.Then folded the wet towel, and wiped it carefully along Shao Xintang's cheeks little by little, all the way to his beautiful neck.

Yu Zhannan took off Shao Xintang's socks again and wiped his feet. Seeing the thick calluses and juicy blisters on those white and tender feet in the past few months, his heart ached.Yu Zhannan had never done such a thing for others in his life, but for Shao Xintang, he was willing and took it for granted.

Yu Zhannan took off Shao Xintang's clothes, covered him with a quilt, and went out.He still has a lot to do.

Yu Zhannan took a few mouthfuls of rice and let it go.Only Sun Dequan cared about his wife and ate bowl after bowl of good food on this big table.After the two of them finished their meal, Yu Zhannan said to Sun Dequan: "Quanzi, you go to sleep first, we still have something to do at dawn, we have to go get our things back."

"Okay." Sun Dequan heard this, and hurried back to the house to take the time to rest for a while.

At dawn, Xiaorui got up again and cooked a large table of dishes, with the help of several servants.Nie Jian'an and Yu Yibo helped look at the little stone.

Yu Zhannan, Sun Dequan and the eight subordinates he brought back sat around the table.

"Have a good meal, maybe this is our last meal. After eating, you have to tell me your decision. Stay with me, we have to start from scratch for everything we want to do. Don't follow me , I can completely understand that you are all grown up, and it is understandable to want to start a family and stabilize. So after this meal, you can decide whether to stay or not, and don't worry about anyone's feelings. If you choose against your will, there is still a long way to go."

The meal was eaten in silence, and several of his subordinates held wine on the table to pay respects to Zhan Nan, saying that they would follow him to the death.

After eating, several servants quickly picked up the bowls and chopsticks from the table, and Yu Zhannan pulled out a cowhide suitcase from under the stool in front of them. "Bang Dang" and put it on the table.

Everyone was paying attention to this end, watching Yu Zhannan open the box to reveal a box of gold bricks neatly stacked, unconsciously holding their breath.

Although the gold is not so exaggerated that it will fill the room with gold as soon as it lights up, it will blind people's eyes, but it is indeed shiny enough to make everyone's eyes squint.

"I decided to leave. Come here and get three yuan. We've finished our breakup meal, so we can go out with it." Yu Zhannan sat in a mahogany chair beside him, and said very simply.

Most of them sat still, only two people looked at everyone, stood up hesitantly, first walked to Yu Zhannan, bowed deeply, and one of them said sincerely: "Commander, my family And the old mother, I can't follow you in the future, I'm really sorry."

Yu Zhannan stood up and helped him up, and said solemnly: "I understand, send my regards to your mother."

Another person walked up to Yu Zhannan, and the usually straightforward man suddenly didn't know how to speak. Looking at Yu Zhannan, he said nonchalantly, "Commander, I, I..."

Yu Zhannan patted him on the shoulder heavily, and said, "I understand everything, let's go."

The two of them took the things, and the eyes of the iron-blooded soldiers were a little moist. At the door, they gave a military salute to Yu Zhannan and the comrades in the house who had had close friends and experienced the baptism of gunfire, and then strode forward. Go out and go their own way from now on.

"These are all decided to stay?" Yu Zhannan looked around at the somewhat sad but still determined soldiers, and said, "To be honest, I haven't even thought about what I will do in the future. You have all decided?"

"Commander, we have all decided, don't say any more, even if we follow you to starve in the future, we will admit it. We will follow you whatever we say, as long as you don't despise us." An officer took the lead and stood up and said, the others Everyone agrees.

"Go! How can you go hungry if you follow me? You underestimate me too much!" Yu Zhannan scolded with a smile, glanced at the gold bricks left in the box, and said: "One person takes three pieces, and they are already divided Yes, those who didn't leave also have a share."

Everyone cheered and divided the remaining gold bricks in a swarm.Although they would rather follow Yu Zhannan without money, but they can still get money while following Yu Zhannan, which is really a great thing.They were all crazy with joy.

Sun Dequan sighed at the empty cowhide box, turned his head and looked at Yu Zhannan sadly, and said, "Commander, why don't I have one?"

Yu Zhannan raised his eyebrows, and said with an evil face: "It's not for you."

"But, I've been with you for so many years..." Before Sun Dequan could finish his sad expression, he was interrupted by other people laughing, and one of the officers who took the money and smiled said: "Quanzi, don't you give me money." Pretend, who doesn't know that the commander gave you the most. Pretend again, don't say that our brothers will not spare you!"

Sun Dequan was exposed, and Nuo Nuo curled his lips and said, "Don't talk nonsense, make it the same as the commander."

Yu Zhannan told them about his plan to go to the United States. At first he thought that some people would disagree, but everyone was very interested.They said: "We can't stay in the country any longer, and these old men from the Military Control Bureau won't let us go. It's fine to go abroad, and come back when things are peaceful."

This side went well, but that side was difficult again.

In this war-torn era, it was not easy for a dozen of them to go abroad at once.If it was three months ago, with Yu Zhannan's strength at that time, let alone these dozen or so people, he would have been able to handle dozens of them.

But today is not what it used to be, not to mention that he has no real power now, many of his old friends can't be found with those old men from the Military Control Bureau watching, but if he has the strength to let them leave within a few days, it's better to leave by more than a dozen There are really not many people.

Yu Zhannan first asked Sun Dequan and one of his officers named Liu Tao to get their things back.And Nie Jian'an, Yu Yibo, and the rest of the remaining officers were sent to the commercial bank to exchange bills every day. Sometimes they needed to exchange the bills into oceans, and then exchange the oceans into gold.In order not to attract attention, they change their clothes every day and go to various commercial houses in different ways, which is not easy.

In just a few days, they exchanged two full boxes of gold.It's really not bad, Yu Zhannan estimated that the whole of Shanghai can collect these.Any more and it would arouse suspicion.I had no choice but to put down the remaining bills.

Yu Zhannan searched around, and finally called Tian Ruyi.

Yu Zhannan's uncle Tian Zhonghe passed away three years ago.Before leaving, the old man took the hands of several of their cousins ​​and told them to take care of each other in the future.After the old man left, he always ate, drank and had fun. Tian Ruyi, who was the least upright, actually took over the family business. He began to work hard towards the central government. In just a few years, he climbed to a high position. Those big bosses in the country can be regarded as important people, even more powerful than the big brothers who entered power more than ten years earlier.Of course, there is Yu Zhannan's help.

In the past few years, his relationship with Tian Ruyi has become much better than before.But neither of them wanted to delve into how much genuine affection there was and how much mutual use was involved.

Therefore, Yu Zhannan should find Ueda Ruyi at this time.

Yu Zhannan counted the time and called Tian Zhai at 08:30 that night.As a result, when the servant went to call Tian Ruyi, Yu Zhannan heard Tian Ruyu's high-pitched voice asking his brother, "Who is it?".

Tian Ruyi quickly answered the phone, and before he could speak, Yu Zhannan heard Tian Ruyu's broom star screaming, "Brother, is it Yu Zhannan? Didn't report it, you can't forget..."

When Tian Ruyu participated in the kidnapping of Shao Xintang, Yu Zhannan took care of him on the spot. Before leaving, Yu Zhannan even gave him a big gift. He set fire to the two shops where he was the only earner. He sent someone to snatch his captive little lover, Qi Kuifeng, and gave it to a senior politician in the military regime at that time.Back then, because Tian Ruyu made the mistake first, Tian Zhonghe ignored him in order to teach him a lesson.The fourth young master of the Tian family, who had led to the prestige of the entire Tianjin city, fell into depression for a while, and became the laughing stock of Tianjin's young and old.

It is conceivable that Tian Ruyu, a small-bellied man, hates Zhannan deeply.

But Yu Zhannan has always regarded him as a toothless dog who only barks indiscriminately, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

So when he heard his annoying voice, Yu Zhannan said into the microphone in a bad tone: "Tian Ruyi, tell your idiot brother to get away and call out, don't let me hear you."

A muffled laugh came from the microphone, and Tian Ruyi said with a smile: "It really is you. Those old guys are looking for you with all their strength. There are many rumors now, but I guess you'll be fine."

Yu Zhannan listened to him quietly, without talking nonsense to him, and said directly: "I have something to do with you. You can help me with the exit procedures for thirteen people to go to the United States. I need it urgently."

"Are you going to America?" Tian Ruyi asked in a flat voice.

"En!" Yu Zhannan said, "Can you do it? How many days will it take?"

After pondering on the other side, Tian Ruyi said: "You have so many people all of a sudden, because you have been watching me closely lately, the superiors are not easy for me. I will send you a letter tomorrow."

Yu Zhannan could only say yes, calm down and wait for a day.The next day, Shao Xintang had a rest and was going to get money with Nie Jianan and the others.He was stopped by Yu Zhannan on the grounds that he was too conspicuous and easily attracted others' attention.

Shao Xintang had no choice but to stay at home every day and help Sun Dequan look after his son.So when Yu Zhannan called Tian Ruyi the next night, he happened to be beside him.

He let Xiao Shitou sit in his arms, held a black and white comic book and taught him to recognize things, while looking up at Yu Zhannan's direction.

I saw Yu Zhannan said "hmm" twice, and suddenly said very angrily: "You are dreaming!" Then he put the phone back with a "snap".

Startled, Shao Xintang raised her head abruptly, meeting Yu Zhannan's sparkling eyes.Yu Zhannan was looking at him strangely.
