Mr. Wen Bai and Sheng Youde became best friends because they share a common philosophy. They believe that the country has reached the moment of life and death. It is an inevitable choice to unite as one, seek common ground while reserving differences, and abandon partisan disputes.

Of course, this does not mean that they agree with the -Communist-Party's proposition. They are still staunch supporters of the Three-Democratic-Principalism, but they have objections to the solution to the problem.

Especially after the Japanese iron cavalry sounded the alarm bell of the war of aggression, the voices against the civil war in the Kuomintang became stronger.

After Deng Wenyi finished speaking, the ceremony ended, and then a large reception banquet was held at the Nanjing Hotel on Gulou Street.

After arriving at the lobby of the hotel, Lu Ming found that the chairman of the committee had already left, and some other party, military and government dignitaries did not attend the banquet.

Mr. Wen Bai stayed, and took Lu Mingming to sit next to him, and introduced them to his tablemates one by one.

During the chat, they learned that Lu Ming was a special correspondent for the "Washington Post". These people shook hands with Lu Ming and praised him as a young talent.

Journalists did enjoy the treatment of "uncrowned kings" in that era, especially reporters from well-known media such as the "Washington Post".

In their eyes, Lu Ming's status as a reporter was much higher than that of the cadres of the Blue Shirts Club. They even thought that if he asked to see the chairman of the committee in this capacity, the chairman would probably not refuse.

A good report can have a global impact, and that's what politicians want to achieve.

Lu Ming ate very restrainedly during this meal, and the people at the same table were all important officials similar to Mr. Wen Bai, and they were also his elders. He knew that Mr. Wen Bai called him here out of good intentions, and wanted everyone to see that Lu Ming was Those who have a special relationship with him are the ones he wants to protect.

Fortunately, these people were not interested in eating and drinking, and they all left after a little interest.

After Mr. Wen Bai left the table, Lu Ming hurried back to Deng Wenyi and Kang Ze's table, and he felt free to breathe.

"Mr. Wen Bai stayed here specially for you, do you know?" Deng Wenyi laughed.

"I know, I'm very moved." Lu Ming really appreciated it.

He even suspected that Mr. Wen Bai said hello to those people at the same table. Otherwise, why would they all leave the table one after another after Mr. Wen Bai introduced them.

"Brother Lu, please take care of me in Shanghai in the future." Deng Wenyi said.

"Where, what ability do I have personally? It depends on everyone, especially Brother Kang's leadership." Lu Ming laughed.

"That's not to say that, after all, we are a self-organized social organization, not a formal national organization, so when we work in Shanghai, we may be squeezed out and squeezed by various local factions, unlike ours in Nanjing, where there are top-level Support." Deng Wenyi sighed.

"Shanghai's water is very deep, and various forces are intertwined. In case of any disturbance, we have to rely on Brother Lu and Duke Sheng to maintain it." Kang Ze also followed Deng Wenyi.

"Actually, I didn't have much dealings with various forces in Shanghai, but if I encountered any difficulties, the chairman of the grand meeting would probably be able to solve them. If I can't do it, I should ask Nanjing for help." Lu Ming said modestly.

"That's the best, I want your words." Deng Wenyi said happily.

"Brother Lu, it would be the best if the funds can be relaxed." Zeng Zhi said suddenly.

"Brother Zeng has any request, feel free to ask, while President Deng is here now, as long as it is not too much, I believe there will always be a way to solve it." Lu Ming said coldly.

Kang Ze looked at the two of them with a smile, a little tit for tat, and the people at the same table were also a little embarrassed, so they could only laugh dryly.

"We don't talk about these things at the wine table. Let's leave it to the office to discuss business matters. We don't talk about official affairs at the wine table." Deng Wenyi smoothed things over.

"President Deng, you are the one who started talking about business affairs." Kang Ze laughed.

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault, I'll punish myself with a drink." Deng Wenyi drank a drink while talking.

After finishing their meal, Lu Ming and Kang Ze decided to take a car back to Shanghai immediately. They felt more comfortable in Shanghai than in Nanjing.

"Brother Lu, Zeng Zhi is a cold-faced and straightforward person. He has such a personality. It's not that he has any objections to you." On the way back, Kang Ze explained.

Lu Ming sneered and said, "Brother Kang, are you treating me like a three-year-old kid?"

Kang Ze smiled awkwardly, but he didn't know how to explain it.

Lu Ming sneered and said, "I know where his resentment towards me comes from. If he really has the ability, he would go to General Wenbai and President Sheng to check. What's the point of entanglement with me, a little guy."

Kang Ze was taken aback, he didn't expect Lu Ming to know the truth, it seems that nothing can be hidden from him.

In fact, this matter is well known in the inner circle of Nanjing. The chairman of the committee received a secret report that a ship full of munitions was released by the customs. Later, the munitions were suspected to have flowed to the Communist Army.

The chairman was furious and ordered to investigate to the end, and he would not tolerate it. The chief guard's office handed over this investigation task to Zeng Zhi.

As a result, Zeng Zhi searched and searched, found Mr. Wen Bai, then Sheng Youde, and the most terrible thing was that the German advisory group had been involved.

Zeng Zhi couldn't go on with the investigation, so he had to hand in the materials. Seeing that the two men had a German advisory group, the committee chairman lost his mind and dismissed the case.

After the meal, Deng Wenyi called Zeng Zhi into a room in the hotel, and shouted angrily: "Old Zeng, are you crazy or something, and you just keep following Lu Ming, what do you really want? How will we get along with each other in the future? "

"What do I want? I just want to find out if he is the Communist Party." Zeng Zhi said indifferently.

"You are really crazy. Are you trying to ruin the principal's good deeds? I think Lu Ming is a good person. He is generous, hospitable, and friendly. Why do you think that he is a communist? -party-huh?"

"Even if he is not the Communist Party, if he sold the arms of that cargo ship to the Communist Party, he is also a communist bandit, so he can be convicted and shot." Zeng Zhi insisted.

"Really, I don't even know what to say about you. The one who released the munitions was the German Advisory Group, Mr. Wen Bai, and Mr. Sheng. How could a boy like Lu Ming have the ability to release a smuggled cargo ship from the customs? He's just an errand runner, understand? We need him now, why do you have to muddy the water?" Deng Wenyi grinned.

"I suspect it was him who did it. The one surnamed Sheng was to wipe his ass, and Mr. Wen Bai came forward because of the surname Sheng. They were just in collusion." Zeng Zhi said unconvinced.

"Then how did the German Advisory Group explain it? Tell me, tell me, even the chairman of the committee didn't check, and you're still working hard." Deng Wenyi turned pale with anger.

Zeng Zhi remained silent, and he also checked with the head of the German advisory group, and asked him what was going on respectfully, but the German colonel didn't even look at him, and just left, treating him like nothing.

Zeng Zhi was so angry that his lungs would explode, and when he came back, he dropped his teacup and inkstone, everything that could be dropped.

During the investigation, he always seemed to see a smiling face saying to him: "Check it out, I am the Communist Party, what can you do to me?" This smiling face was what he imagined Lu Ming.

Later, he saw Lu Ming himself, and Lu Ming's nonchalant, nonchalant and smiling face seemed to be mocking him and provoking him.He couldn't help but want to get angry.

He felt that the Communist Party had penetrated into the top of the Blue Shirts, like a fox had slipped into a henhouse, and sooner or later they would all be eaten. This was absolutely intolerable.

"Brother, wake up, be realistic, we have also found out that Lu Ming has nothing to do with the Cao Gang, because his fiancée Miss Yuan is the god-sister of the Cao Gang's leader Ning, and that's all." Deng Wenyi Furious and helpless.

"I checked very clearly. In fact, the relationship between him and the Cao Gang is not harmonious. Why are you so concerned about this matter?" Zeng Zhi really worked hard to find out the case.

"Isn't it just the money, and it's not a stain to have a relationship with the Cao Gang. Don't we maintain a good relationship with the gangs in Shanghai and Nanjing?" Deng Wenyi said under pressure.

"The Cao Gang is different from the Qinghong Gang. They are suspected of smuggling arms to the Communist Army, and the case can almost be settled." Zeng Zhi insisted.
