The Jade of the Republic of China

Shen Yutong didn't know how Meng Liansheng and Long Zhenfei agreed, but Long Zhenfei did not come to him again.

Shen's Salt Factory managed to escape the turmoil. The machines in the factory were still roaring day and night, and the salt boats at the wharf were dispatched to all parts of the country in an orderly manner every day.

Shen Yutong resented Meng Liansheng, but he also understood that it was the other party's credit that the Shenjia Salt Factory was safe and sound.

However, the relationship between him and Meng Liansheng is really hard to talk about.

He can no longer treat the other party as a lover, but he still has to do what his lover does, because this is Meng Liansheng's condition for helping the Shen family.

Usually, when he meets Meng Liansheng, he decides by himself, and the other party just obediently waits for him.But now, the other party is no longer the Xiaomeng who is honestly waiting for him to "get lucky", he starts to ask to meet frequently.

"Second son, I found a delicious restaurant, how about I pick you up for dinner tonight?"

"Boss Tong is going to play a new play tonight, and he definitely wants us to join in."

"The big world is going to show a new movie, I bought a ticket, and I want to invite the second son to watch it together."

Every time it seems to be a polite invitation, Shen Yutong refuses and doesn't force it with the excuse that he doesn't have time, but he just keeps asking him when he is free?

Shen Yutong was helpless.

He knew that Meng Liansheng loved him, but he really didn't dare to want the love of a beast.

After two or three months, the two often went in and out together. People outside didn't know, but those around Meng Liansheng probably guessed their relationship early.

Today, Xiaolong, who was under house arrest in Songjiang by Long Zhenfei for more than three months, called and said that he would come back to see him.

He went to the agreed place, but Meng Liansheng's men brought him to this small building on Fumin Road before anyone saw him.

It turned out that he was actually being watched.

He originally wanted to quarrel with the other party, but looking at this still very confusing face, he didn't even bother to scold him, because he knew that although the other party looked harmless, he was really a skinless beast. He is useless.

He gently pushed him away: "Xiao Meng, I'm a little tired."

Meng Liansheng took him by the hand and said, "I'll accompany you upstairs to rest."

Shen Yutong is a little bit resistant to doing that kind of thing with him now, because she always feels as if she has really become a rabbit.

Fortunately, after he lay down on the bed, Meng Liansheng didn't pester him as usual, but just kissed him on the lips without doing anything else.

He simply closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, but after a long time, he suddenly realized that the man was not in bed, and there was no movement, so he opened his eyes strangely.But Meng Liansheng was lying on the bedside, opened a corner of the curtain, and looked out through a gap.That movement was clearly on the opposite side of the helmet.

Shen Yutong frowned, sat up and asked, "What are you doing?"

Meng Liansheng said without turning his head, "I'm looking at the couple opposite."

Shen Yutong took it for granted that he was going to do something wrong again: "What do you think he is doing?"

Meng Liansheng put down the curtains, turned to look at him and said, "They are very happy, I envy them very much."

Shen Yutong didn't know why.

Meng Liansheng said again: "I want to live the same life with Second Young Master as they do."

Shen Yutong has been here countless times, so he naturally knows who lives opposite. A bank manager in his 30s, with a beautiful and gentle wife, and a cute little daughter, seem to be a very happy family.

Meng Liansheng's relatives died early, probably because he longed for a family.It's just that the person who accompanies him to live this kind of life must not be himself.

He wanted to tease him a little bit, but after thinking about it, he just said coldly: "No matter how envious you are, you can't keep peeping at others, it's like a pervert."

Meng Liansheng nodded, walked over and lifted the quilt to lie down, put his arms around his shoulders, and asked in a low voice, "Second Young Master, if Shanghai is safe, will you not want me?"

Shen Yutong smiled in his heart, he was really good at putting himself in the position of the weak, obviously he was the one threatening him, but it seemed that he was the one who betrayed his heart.

He reached out his hand to turn off the light, and said softly, "Xiao Meng, we can't go on forever."

Knowing that this relationship will end one day, he is actually conniving these days.

Meng Liansheng was silent for a while in the dark, and then asked, "Second Young Master, don't you love me at all?"

Shen Yutong said: "Xiao Meng, I dare not love you anymore."

Meng Liansheng didn't speak any more.

In the morning of the next day, I returned to Shen's garden.

With the support of her sister-in-law Biyun, Shen Yuan is recovering in the garden.Although he has been discharged from the hospital for a while, he is not young after all, and he does not know how long it will take to recover to be able to move freely.

Shen Yutong looked at his elder brother from a distance, and the only thing he felt relieved was that at least the Shen family salt factory was safe and sound, otherwise, he really didn't know what would happen to this family.

"Yutong," Shen Yuan saw his younger brother when he turned around, and raised his hand to beckon him.

Shen Yutong walked over: "Brother, how are you doing?"

Shen Yuan said: "Don't worry, brother is fine." He waved his hand at his wife, "You don't have to worry about me, I'll chat with Yutong for a while."

Biyun said: "Then call me if you have anything to do."

Shen Yuan nodded.

Shen Yutong supported him, sat down on a stone bench beside him, and sent a maid to bring hot tea.

Shen Yuan glanced at his younger brother: "You have worked hard these days!"

Shen Yutong chuckled: "As long as you get better soon, big brother, I'll be fine no matter how hard I work."

Shen Yuan nodded, seemed to think for a moment, and then said: "I recently heard some rumors about you and Xiaomeng. I want to ask you whether it is true or not?"

Shen Yutong's hand holding the teacup froze slightly, then gently bent the corners of his mouth, nodded and said, "It's true."

A flash of astonishment flashed in Shen Yuan's eyes, but he returned to normal immediately. In fact, he should have guessed a long time ago, how could any normal friend be like that, even for Xiaolong, it was clearly different.What's more, in these years, my younger brother has not had a woman by his side, so it's not normal at all.

Originally influenced by the fortune teller's prophecy, he thought that his younger brother would be safe without a woman by his side.Now that I think about it, I just feel ridiculous, and peach blossom calamity does not only refer to women.

If it were a man, that would be a real catastrophe.

Because he had just experienced the rest of his life after a catastrophe, he looked down on things other than life and death a lot, so when he saw his younger brother admitting the rumors, he was calm, and he sighed with regret, and said: "I still listen It is said that our Shenjia Salt Factory was able to escape this time because of Xiaomeng's help."

Shen Yutong hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Yes."

It's better to let the eldest brother think that Meng Liansheng is just helping out than knowing that he has made a deal with the other party.

Shen Yuan frowned and said: "I heard that Xiao Meng has been doing dirty work for Long Zhenfei and the others. Big Brother is not a rigid person. If you really like anyone, no matter male or female, I will support him. It's just that people like Xiao Meng, how can they be close friends? "

Shen Yutong said: "Brother, I understand. When the situation stabilizes, I will break up with him."

Shen Yuan was slightly taken aback: "Really?"

"Well, elder brother is right. Different ways do not seek mutual conspiracies. Even if it's not for yourself, you have to think about the Shen family."

Shen Yuan sighed again: "I received the news that Jiangsu will call again. But if this toss continues, industry and commerce will definitely not be able to bear it."

Shen Yutong nodded: "Now I am discussing with a veteran of the chamber of commerce, and I am going to contact all walks of life, including foreign ministers, and try to use public opinion to force all parties to withdraw their troops and return Shanghai to peace."

Shen Yuan sighed, and said, "It's not convenient for me to come out in this body now, and you represent the Shen family alone, I'm afraid you will have to work hard for a while."

Shen Yutong smiled: "Brother, get well soon."

Shen Yuan also smiled, and stretched out her hand: "Okay, you can help me to walk around again."

The battle was fought after the year.

Jiangsu has been dormant for two years, and then advances to Shanghai again.After all, the warlords were not more aggressive than the foreigners, because they were afraid of hurting too many innocent people and attracting public opinion bombardment, so they did not dare to fight too hard, and the two sides have been stalemate on the periphery.

Seeing this situation, Shen Yutong quickly suggested to the senior members of the chamber of commerce to publish articles in major newspapers and periodicals to crusade against the obstacles brought about by the war to Shanghai's national industry and commerce.

Workers and students were also mobilized to protest the civil unrest.

There was a lot of trouble for a while.

Because of the stalemate in the war, Long Zhenfei didn't dare to let the police station come forward to suppress it. He could only watch helplessly as the public opinion became more and more intense, and ministers from various countries also came forward one after another.

"Xiao Meng! What do you think of the current situation?"

Over the past two years, Long Zhenfei's trust in Meng Liansheng's good knife has grown stronger day by day.Right now, he couldn't do anything, and he was very anxious, so he could only invite Meng Liansheng to discuss countermeasures.

Meng Liansheng said: "In my opinion, it's time for Uncle Long to make plans for himself."

"You mean that Commander Li will be defeated?"

Meng Liansheng said: "In the current situation, it is no longer a matter of who is defeated, but that there may be no more troops stationed in Shanghai."

Long Zhenfei frowned: "What do you mean?"

Meng Liansheng said: "Shanghai is the gateway to China and the frontier of national industry and commerce. In the past few years, you have fought for this treasure land, which has dealt a heavy blow to industry and commerce. Now businessmen from all walks of life have united, and public opinion across the country is responding. Undefeated, I'm afraid he will have to retire. Once he retreats, you, the chief of police, will definitely have to resign."

In fact, Long Zhenfei has already seen this situation clearly, but he is unwilling. He has only been in Shanghai for less than two years, and the good life is far from enough. Once he is out of the field, he will have to be sent to a remote village to lead the army. He never wants to think about it again. It's that kind of life, and I don't want Xiaolong to live that kind of life with him.

Fortunately, he had anticipated this day early on, so he had been trying his best to make money for himself in the past two years since he returned to Shanghai.

He pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Xiao Meng, what you said makes sense, it's time to make a good plan."

Meng Liansheng said: "No matter what Uncle Long's plans are, as long as you haven't left Shanghai and you can use Xiaomeng's place, feel free to speak up."

Long Zhenfei laughed loudly: "Okay, Xiao Meng, this little friend, I didn't make friends in vain."

Meng Liansheng smiled slightly, looked at the wrinkles at the corners of the other party's eyes, and thought, Long Zhenfei is getting old too.

When it's old, it's useless.
