Chapter 96 Strategic Materials

"This is normal. What European and American women love most is stockings. The Japanese buy our raw silk and cooked silk in large quantities, process them into stockings and silk, and export them to Europe and the United States. They are said to be very popular and profitable." Yan Xiaohui laughed.

"What about silk? Europeans and Americans seldom wear silk clothes." Lu Ming never understood why Japan wanted to monopolize raw silk in China.

"We didn't know it at first, but later we learned about the silk strategic material. We heard that Europe and the United States used it to make parachutes." Yan Xiaohui laughed.

"Parachute?" Hearing this word, Lu Ming felt a little ominous.

Since the appearance of airplanes in the European War, that is, World War I, the new gadget of parachute has also appeared. For precious pilots, parachute is naturally a necessary life-saving item.

Europe and the United States import a large amount of silk, is it really preparing for war?

Lu Ming couldn't think about these things. Anything related to the war, no matter big or small, or even a clue, would arouse his vigilance.

Now Lu Ming still reports the situation to his teacher Frank every week. He is really like a news observer, analyzing and summarizing some of the situations he observed and reporting to Frank. After all, he is paid a salary of five hundred dollars a month.

But those dollars have been lying in the account, and a penny has not been moved.

This occupation has cultivated his sensitivity to external things, and every little thing, every word will attract his attention and association.

Seeing that Lu Ming couldn't be persuaded, Yan Xiaohui had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

She asked for leave to come to Lu Ming's place, and she had to go back to see patients. There are not many gynecologists in Tongren Hospital, so she basically has to attend consultations every day.

However, there were not many patients every day. At that time, women usually endured gynecological diseases and were ashamed to let others know. They would not go to the hospital until they couldn't bear it anymore.

Going to the hospital is also a habit of looking for a doctor of Chinese medicine. Although Western medicine is more advanced than Chinese medicine in gynecological diagnosis and treatment, and the treatment effect is much better, the reason why habit becomes a habit is because there is an iron wall with time.

Generally speaking, only highly educated women will come to the hospital for gynecological diseases.If they encounter a male doctor, they will be discouraged, so Yan Xiaohui is basically the only one in the gynecology department of Tongren Hospital.

She really wanted to stay with Lu Ming for a while longer, but she was still concerned about the things in the hospital, so she could only hold Lu Ming's hand and let him take him downstairs.

At noon, Lu Ming went to Badawan Restaurant for dinner. The shopkeeper and the staff were very enthusiastic. To them, Lu Ming was the best customer. He was generous and never picky. .

Lu Ming looked at the bill. He still had a lot of money left, so he prepaid another [-] yuan and put it on the bill.

The shopkeeper thanked them again and again. The biggest headache for them is those shabby households in Shanghai who come here with their old reputations. They never pay the bill immediately, and you can’t do it without credit. After all, these people still have some background and don’t have much money, but If you seriously mess with you, it's enough for you to drink a pot.

Credit is the most troublesome thing for a restaurant. If you don’t urge you to pay, if you urge you to pay less, it’s like a reward. As a result, the account snowballs and you owe more and more money.

The owner of the debt is not in a hurry, and the owner of the restaurant is in a dilemma. Regardless of the prosperity and income every day, if three out of ten customers have credit, the restaurant will not be able to withstand it.

There is no one like Lu Ming who not only does not pay the bill but also pays first. When the restaurant meets him, it is also very popular.

After Lu Ming had eaten and drank enough, he still ordered food for four people, put them in four food boxes, and asked two assistants to follow them to the apartment.

I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, but since the other party believes that An Gonggen and his gang are hiding in the building, he doesn't have to hide it, and he can simply be more generous.

After he sent the four food boxes to An Gonggen and the others, he didn't say anything superfluous except to tell them to be more careful.

"It's really unpleasant to eat other people's free food like this." An Gonggen smiled wryly while drinking and eating meat.

Lu Ming was generous and hospitable, and didn't care about such a small amount of money, but they felt that they deserved it, especially when Lu Ming was under such a heavy pressure, and he looked like a normal person when he shot at the Japanese, which made them feel mixed.

"Yes, in fact, it is already a great kindness for Master Lu to help us rescue Sister Chunyue. Captain, why don't we contact the brothers outside to get them ready, come in the middle of the night and rush out! " said one

"Yes, captain, we can't drag Master Lu down anymore." Another person added.

"But who can guarantee that the person we contact is not a traitor?" An Gonggen said with a wry smile.

"No way, after all these years, Jin Huan is our life and death brother."

"I didn't say he is, but I can't guarantee that he is not. Isn't Pu Zhenchang also a brother of life and death? Who would have expected him to become a traitor." An Gonggen said coldly.

Pu Zhenchang was the traitor who betrayed their operation, and this matter has been found out.Now Pu Zhenchang is hiding in the Japanese consulate.

They were puzzled, why did Pu Zhenchang defected to the enemy?

Fear of death and greed for glory and wealth are weaknesses in human nature. Once this weakness overcomes one's beliefs, rebellion will happen sooner or later.

Pu Zhenchang couldn't stand the test and didn't want to live in fear anymore, so he stood on the opposite side of them.

Of course, it doesn't mean that they can forgive the traitor. On the contrary, they are ready to get rid of the traitor once Pu Zhenchang walks out of the Japanese consulate, no matter how much it costs.

"Captain, what should we do, we can't go on like this forever." A subordinate asked.

Always eat and drink for free, and ask others to take in them at great risk. This is not the life a revolutionist should have.

"What else can we do? Since we owe the debt, we will owe it to the end. Our actions now will disrupt Master Lu's plan, so let's listen to his arrangement."

An Gonggen was also at his wit's end, he could still contact the outside world, but after hearing Lu Ming's analysis, he felt that the risk of contacting the outside world was too great, if they encountered another mole, they would have to die in vain.

Questions still exist. They are hiding in Wanguo Apartment. Why did the Japanese locate them so quickly?Pu Zhenchang didn't know about it, which meant that there were probably other traitors.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Yuan Mingzhu called and told Lu Ming in coded words, the general idea was this: the hen and the two chicks had left Shanghai safely, and they were escorted by their brothers during the whole process. The brothers are in charge of placement.

Lu Ming thanked her again and again, and then asked Yuan Mingzhu how to thank her elder brother.

"Why are you thanking him? If you want to thank him, thank me. It's all arranged by me. It's useless to my elder brother." Yuan Mingzhu said with a hearty smile.

"Then there is no need to thank you." Lu Ming laughed.

"No, no, don't play tricks, you have to thank me." Yuan Mingzhu shouted.
