The next day, the weather was not so good, it was cloudy and humid, as if it was holding back heavy rain.
Du Fei and Zhu Ting got on the boat early in the morning and slowly headed south along the Pearl River.
The ship is an old ro-ro ship with both passengers and cargo.
However, in this era, there are not many people going to Xiangjiang through normal channels, and there are not many passengers on board.
Du Fei and Zhu Ting stood by the railing on the side of the boat, looking at the scenery on the shore.
At this time, there are still many primitive scenery on both sides of the Pearl River.
Large tracts of mangroves extend from the shore into the water, and ripples appear on the water's edge from time to time, and it is not known whether it is a fish or an otter.
It is less than [-] kilometers from Guangzhou to Xiangjiang.
If you want to save it for future generations, you can get there in less than an hour by high-speed train.
But this wrecked boat had to wobble for six or seven hours.
Fortunately, it has been almost two years since Du Fei traveled here, and he is already used to the slow pace of this era.
After the wind blew for a while, Du Fei tugged Zhu Ting: "Go back and sit inside, it's windy."
Zhu Ting said "hmm" all over, and the unchanging scenery was nothing to look at.
Back in the cabin, there is no need to sit according to the ticket, the two found a place in a corner.
Zhu Ting said, "By the way, I forgot to tell you yesterday..."
Thinking of Du Fei pulling her around last night, his cheeks turned red.
Du Fei asked if nothing had happened, what did you forget?
Zhu Ting said: "Last night when the club gave out the boat tickets, when it came to Xiangjiang, Uncle Liao might come to pick us up in person."
Du Fei was taken aback for a moment, the one who could make Zhu Ting call her uncle was still surnamed Liao!
Immediately, someone came to mind: "Uncle Liao? Could it be..."
Zhu Ting said "hmm", it should be my dad saying hello.
Du Fei nodded, this is the so-called someone in the DPRK who is good at being an official, and no matter where he goes, his eyes will not be blackened.
Even if there is no real help, sometimes a reminder or a hint can determine success or failure.
As for Zhu's father, he said that he would let them go out to practice, and he would let them go after leaving Beijing.
But the real thing is paving the way in the dark.
Du Fei asked: "Our father has a good relationship with Uncle Liao?"
Zhu Ting nodded: "Uncle Liao is my father's senior. He went to Toyo Waseda University in 27 years, and my father went there in 28 years the following year."
Du Fei suddenly realized that it was this relationship that had been arguing for a long time.
Zhu Ting continued: "Unfortunately, three months later, Uncle Liao was deported back to China because of his anti-Japanese remarks..."
The two of you said something to each other, and before you knew it, it was already afternoon.
The channel of the Pearl River estuary quickly became wider, and in the distance, several large ships could be faintly seen sailing towards the Xiangjiang River on the east bank.
Going forward, there are gradually some prosperous scenes.
However, Xiangjiang in this era has not yet reached the golden age of development, and there are no high-rise buildings everywhere.
After waiting at the port for more than half an hour, the ship finally docked.
After some formalities, disembark along the gangway.
The moment his foot stepped on the ground, Du Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he looked very relaxed along the way, he was in a panic in his heart.
Because this ship is too old, and it is a ro-ro ship with passengers and cargo, which is the most prone to accidents.
Fortunately, I went ashore safely, gratifying to congratulate.
But Zhu Ting didn't feel anything, and walked outside along the signs, looking for someone to pick them up.
There were sparse people waiting outside the exit.
After walking out, Zhu Ting quickly saw an acquaintance and waved her hand a few times.
They also saw them over there, and immediately greeted them.
Two young people came, one in his 30s and the other in his 27s.
Zhu Ting smiled and said, "Secretary Wang, I'm sorry to trouble you, how is Uncle Liao?"
Secretary Wang smiled and said, "The director is very nice. I was supposed to come here in person, but I received a call this morning to have a private meeting with the Governor of Hong Kong."
After finishing speaking, he shook hands with Du Fei and said, "You are Comrade Du Fei~"
After a brief exchange of greetings, they went outside and got into a black car.
At this time, Xiangjiang's municipal construction was not much better than that of the capital city. The streets were cramped, and there were many people and vehicles.
Secretary Wang took Du Fei and Zhu Ting directly to a hotel next to the branch office of New H Society on Queen's Road.
The room has already been opened. It is a suite with a reception room. Although the decoration is a bit old, the grade is definitely not low.
After helping Du Fei and Zhu Ting settle down, Secretary Wang left first.
Du Fei and Zhu Ting cleaned up, and at five o'clock in the afternoon, Secretary Wang came again and said that Director Liao had come back to see them.
Du Fei and Zhu Ting changed clothes.
The so-called do as the Romans do, Du Fei put on the suit that Zhu Ting prepared for him early in the morning.
Although the style of the suit is a bit old, it does not look obtrusive in Xiangjiang.
Zhu Ting wore an elegant floral dress, and her hair was tied into a slightly high ponytail. Walking on the street, she could not tell that they had just come from the north in the morning.
Now that we are on the enemy's territory, the necessary camouflage must be indispensable.
At least it can save some trouble.
Du Fei and Zhu Ting met Director Liao in a nearby tea restaurant.
There are a lot of people here, coming and going, old men and old ladies, and young and Dangerous boys with tattoos.
Director Liao sat on the second floor by the window, facing the street, he could see the busy street below.
Walking to the front, Zhu Ting called "Uncle Liao" first.
Director Liao bowed, motioned for them to sit down, looked like Du Fei again, and said with a smile, "Du Fei! What a great guy! He's talented and beautiful, not bad, not bad~"
Du Fei said politely, "Uncle, you're flattering me."
At the same time, he was also looking at Director Liao.
His skin is a little dark, and he looks like a southerner. He smiles, his teeth are very white, and he is very friendly.
He should be three or four years older than Zhu's father, and he will be sixty next year, but in real life, he looks younger than his age.
Afterwards, Director Liao enthusiastically introduced several signature snacks of this tea restaurant, and said some irrelevant things.
I asked about the work and life of Dui and Zhu Ting, Zhu's father and Zhu's mother's body and so on.
Until the end, when the time was almost over, Director Liao mentioned: "I heard that Brother Jietai gave you eight words before you came here?"
Du Fei looked serious and nodded, "Please call Uncle Liao."
Director Liao waved his hand and said, "I can't talk about dialing. Since Brother Jietai asked you to come here, he trusts your ability. I trust his vision. As for this side..."
As he spoke, he looked at Secretary Wang who had been sitting by the side and had not spoken.
Secretary Wang understood immediately, and took out a notebook from his briefcase and handed it to Du Fei.
Director Liao said: "This is what we have. Some specific situations on the Xiangjiang side should be useful to you."
Du Fei picked up the notebook, flipped through a page at random, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Uncle Liao."
Director Liao shook his head and said, "Son, you don't have to thank me, these are basic information. This time you have a heavy burden on your shoulders! This is brother Jietai's trust in you, but unfortunately I have to fly to Dongyang tomorrow... ..."
Both Du Fei and Zhu Ting were stunned for a moment.
Unexpectedly, Director Liao was about to leave as soon as they arrived.
But after thinking about it, Du Fei figured it out. This should be avoided on purpose.
Du Fei concluded before that this time there are two teams in Xiangjiang, one bright and one dark.
He and Lin Tiansheng are open chess, and another group of dark chess is the key. Obviously, Director Liao will not invest too much energy and resources on their side.
It is estimated that seeing this side today, plus this notebook, is almost enough.
Du Fei had expected this situation a long time ago, so he didn't feel resentful.
On the contrary, Director Liao will go to Dongyang tomorrow, so it is considered good to be able to spare time to meet them today.
Du Fei took the notebook to thank him again, and was about to end the meeting.
But at this moment, a broken Chinese voice suddenly came from the direction of the stairs: "Hey, Liao! What a coincidence, I met you here."
Director Liao looked back, with a professional smile on his face, he stood up and greeted him: "Mr. Li De, it is indeed a coincidence."
Li De laughed and said: "In your words, this is called fate!"
Du Fei and Zhu Ting looked over and saw a tall foreigner, about 1.8 meters five, having a warm conversation with Director Liao.
The faces of foreigners are different from those of Chinese people. Du Fei can't tell their ages. Judging from his appearance, he should be in his 50s or [-]s. He is very well dressed and not an ordinary person.
Beside him was a strong man wearing toad glasses, about the same size as Du Fei, with a military look, he should be a bodyguard.
"Liao, is this beautiful lady your friend?" After exchanging pleasantries, the foreigner looked at Du Fei and Zhu Ting.
Director Liao introduced: "This Comrade Zhu Ting is a new colleague from our New H Agency. This is his husband. This is Mr. Li De, a senior advisor to His Excellency the Governor of Hong Kong, and a hereditary Lord of YG."
"Tom, Li De." Li De was quite a gentleman, and shook hands with Zhu Ting.
Didn't make any fuss or kiss hands.
He shook hands with Du Fei again, expressing his honor.
Du Fei couldn't help but look at the other party carefully.
Unexpectedly, on the first day, I met a high-level person from Xiangjiang.
Could it be such a coincidence?
Li De didn't stay long, and left after exchanging pleasantries, as if it was just an ordinary encounter.
Find a table nearby to sit down and order.
Du Fei and the others got up and left.
When going down the stairs, Director Liao reminded: "This man is an old fox, you have to be careful."
As for the specifics, Director Liao didn't say much, he had already gone downstairs and got into the car outside.
Watching the car go away, Du Fei and Zhu Ting were going to cross the road back to the hotel.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt as if someone was staring at him.
Du Fei closed his eyes slightly, thinking about it.
On the roof of the building across the street, there are a few crows.
One of them is Xiao Hei!
Just after settling down just now, Du Fei found an opportunity to release the crow team and arrange them around.
At this time, the field of vision was synchronized to Xiao Hei's side for an instant, and he happened to see that Mr. Li De was looking down on the second floor of the tea restaurant.
His eyes just fell on Du Fei.
Du Fei retracted his vision, didn't look up, as if he didn't notice, he crossed the road with Zhu Ting and went back to the hotel across the street.
When she returned to the room, Zhu Ting was a little frustrated: "Uncle Liao is actually going east!"
Du Fei sat down on the sofa, and while flipping through the notes given by Director Liao just now, he smiled and said, "What else? Do you still expect him to help us?"
Zhu Ting let out an "ah".
In fact, she knew that even if Director Liao didn't leave, it wouldn't be of great help to them.
It's just that there are always some flukes in my heart.
Then he asked, "Then what shall we do next?"
Du Fei looked at the notes without looking up: "Wait~ I have passed the news through Brother Daming before, let's see what the attitudes of those clan names are."
Zhu Ting frowned and said, "Just wait here?"
Du Fei raised his head, smiled and said, "Or else? Now they are the ones asking us for help, so we can't rush over there~ We are young, if we don't hold our hands together, it will make people feel that we are It's easy to handle."
Before long, it was already dark.
The top floor of a luxury hotel next to Victoria Harbour.
In a huge suite, Mr. Li De, who had just met Du Fei during the day, was standing by the window with a glass of whiskey, gazing at the night view of the bay in a daze.
At this moment, the bedroom door opened from the inside.
A young foreigner who had just taken a shower came out, and while wiping his hair, he complained, "Uncle Tom, it's not a gentleman to disturb the door at this time."
Mr. Li De turned around and raised his hand to look at his watch: "If there is nothing wrong with my watch, it is only seven o'clock, my Mr. Dai."
The young man casually threw the towel on the sofa next to him, picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a glass: "Of course, for a young man, the time at night is the most precious, isn't it?"
Mr. Li De frowned: "Vincent, I think your father and your uncle must regret sending you to the United States. At least I remember that you were a gentleman before the age of 16."
Vincent Dai Zhilin smiled cynically, but raised his glass and said "cheers" to Mr. Li De.
And his uncle is the current governor of Hong Kong.
Li De had nothing to do with this best friend's nephew, and secretly rejoiced that he hadn't sent the child away.
Vincent felt good about himself, shaking the amber whiskey in the glass, and asked, "Have you seen our opponent?"
Li De had a good time, no longer thinking about what he had, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, they are with Liao, they are very young."
Vincent smiled and said, "I heard that there is an oriental beauty, is that so?"
Li De was speechless, if it wasn't for the bullshit aristocratic demeanor, he would really be scolding his mother.
"Vincent! If you think I'm bothering you, then I can leave immediately." Li De's tone was flat, but his eyes were firm. He was already angry.
Vincent curled his lips indifferently: "Okay, okay~ Your Excellency, I apologize to you."
Li De said seriously: "I have said more than once that this is not a game! Our opponents are Chinese people. In the past 20 years, everyone who underestimated them has paid a heavy price, including the once great MacArthur! I don't want us to It's next, understand?"
Speaking of MacArthur, Vincent finally put away his cynical attitude.
Seriously: "Sorry, Uncle Tom, I just... damn, you know, I don't want to come at all."
