Chapter 233: Eat 1 Meal, Miss 1 Meal

Chapter 233 Eat one meal, one less meal After paying the money, he asked Ning Wei to carry the roast chicken and Hu Bayi to carry the pig's trotters. Ning Weidong said to Shouhuoyan again: "Give me two more bottles of Lingchuan." The salesperson was slightly surprised and said with a smile: "Comrade, have you been to Jinzhou?" Ning Weidong said: "In this rural area~" The salesperson suddenly realized: "No wonder." He handed out two bottles of wine and asked, "Would you like another basket of side dishes? Sassa mouth." The salesperson could see that this man was not short of money. Ning Weidong knew about the shrimp sauce side dish, which was said to be a tribute to the palace, so he simply bought some to try. After buying the things, the three of them went straight back to the car without waiting for the parking time to end.

Ning Weidong returned to the private room, put down his things, and said with a smile: "Let's wait until tonight, have a drink, and sleep until tomorrow morning, and it should be here." When taking a long-distance train, many people like to have a drink. In the blink of an eye, they arrive at their destination. The prerequisite is that you don’t carry valuables with you, otherwise you will find that your wallet is gone when you open your eyes. Ning Weidong and the others don't have to worry about this. At this time, with a whistle, the train started again. Ning Wei took the opportunity to follow Hu Bayi to the next door. Ning Weidong and Wang Ye obviously had something important to discuss just now, so there was no need to avoid suspicion in broad daylight. He could just go back when it was time to go to bed at night, so that they wouldn't have to spend the night alone. Ning Weidong came back and picked up the documents on the table to look at them. After he finished reading it again, Wang Ye asked, "What do you think?" Ning Weidong understood that she was asking if there was any entry point. There must be a beginning to solve any problem, just like finding the end of a thread in a thread-twisting ball. Once you find the right entry point, the rest will come naturally. Otherwise, it will be like pulling a cart across a ridge, encountering one obstacle after another. Ning Weidong did not answer but asked: "Give me a hint~" Wang Ye said expressionlessly: "What kind of clues are there? If there really is a clue, do you think you are still needed?" Ning Weidong thought so too. This mission of his should be just a side task. No one expected him to produce any results. He would probably just take a look and give a perceptual understanding, such as how the morale is and whether the soldiers are well-trained. In fact, after reading this information, Ning Weidong already had an idea in his mind, but he still needed to think carefully about how to do it. He didn't rush to tell Wang Ye, and asked again: "Are there any comrades over there who can cooperate?" Wang Yezhi shook his head and said, "No, this is to protect you." Ning Weidong understood that the Soviet Union's KGB was not a vegetarian. There is no doubt that we must have had comrades there over the years, but no one can be sure of the specific circumstances.

I don’t know if KGB’s people have been targeting him for a long time. Therefore, from Ning Weidong's perspective, the wisest choice is not to contact people over there. And then again, if those people were capable, the deployment in the Far East and Baikal regions would have been mastered long ago and would not be as vague as it is now. "I understand." Ning Weidong handed the information back to Wang Ye: "Dispose of it." Wang Ye said "hmm". Ning Weidong didn't need to remind her because she was professional. However, the fact that Ning Weidong could think of this made her look at him with a higher regard, and his attitude was correct and cautious. Then Ning Weidong was seen looking out the window, wondering what he was thinking. After a moment, he suddenly withdrew his gaze, picked up the pen, and started writing and drawing on the paper. Wang Ye was looking at them from the opposite side, and soon showed an expression of surprise. Ning Weidong actually drew a map of the Far East, Baikal, and Mongolia in just a moment. The border line and city locations marked above are exactly the same! Wang Ye was not sure whether Ning Weidong remembered it from the information he had just read, or whether he had drawn a map of this place earlier. But either way, it is not easy to draw such an accurate map blindly. After Ning Weidong finished drawing, he stared at the map on the paper and scribbled on it with a pen, making it look like ghost drawings. Wang Ye couldn't understand what he was doing. Ning Weidong drew for a while, then crumpled up the paper and threw it into the trash can below. Then he stopped moving and just watched the scene passing by outside the window. It was past seven in the evening, when it was already dark outside, and the train arrived in Shenyang. Ning Weidong was busy and called the three people from next door. He gave each of them a pig's trotter and cut a roast chicken into pieces. They drank wine and ate meat, preparing to go to bed. Wang Ye didn't drink any wine, but was chewing the pig's trotter with relish. Although Li Peizhong doesn't smoke, he is a heavy drinker. Although he looks gentle and refined, he can actually drink quite a bit. Not to mention Hu Bayi. However, none of them drank too much. Four of them drank two bottles of wine, and half a bottle was left. On average, each person drank more than 300 grams of wine, which was considered a little tipsy. By the time we finished eating and cleaned up, it was almost nine o'clock. Ning Wei returned to box number one. The train was heading further and further north, and it became a bit cold inside the carriage at night. Ning Weidong shook out the quilt, leaned back and listened to the broadcast in the car. After a while, at 10 o'clock, the lights in the hard sleeper cars will be turned off, while the soft sleeper cars will be self-controlled.

Wang Ye got up to wash up and prepare to rest. Ning Wei climbed onto the upper bunk and lay down quietly. …… Early the next morning. Ning Weidong woke up at six o'clock, and the train had already entered Jilin Province. What meets the eye outside the window is a stretch of harvested fields as far as the eye can see, and only in the far distance can you vaguely see the rolling hills. Ning Weidong woke up but didn't get up. He went to the toilet and came back to lie down again. It will take more than two hours to reach Harbin. You can clearly feel that the weather here is really cold, the temperature is at least ten degrees lower than that in Beijing. After a while, Wang Ye woke up, subconsciously tightened the quilt around him, and seeing Ning Weidong open his eyes, he asked, "Are we almost there?" Ning Weidong said “hmm”. However, arriving in Harbin is only the first step. The straight-line distance from Harbin to Sulian's Blagoveshchensk is still 800 kilometers, and the actual journey is even longer. There is no way around it. Sometimes, vast land and abundant resources is not just a simple idiom. Ning Weidong asked: "Is everything arranged here?" Wang Ye said: "Don't worry, we will stay in Harbin for one night after we get off the train. Tomorrow we will take the train to Heihe, enter the territory of Sulian, and then go east to Boli, which is now called Khabarovsk." Ning Weidong responded. He didn’t know why Wang Ye made such arrangements. If it were according to his idea, he would go directly east, go through Mudan, pass Suifen, and arrive in Vladivostok first. Because Director Zhang’s old friend, Kadyrov, is currently in Vladivostok. However, following Wang Ye's itinerary also has its advantages. From Heihe, you can follow the eastern line of the Xianbei Siberian Railway, first to Blagoveshchensk and then to Vladivostok. You will have the opportunity to see more things, which is theoretically beneficial for Ning Weidong to complete the task of espionage deployment. But it's just theory. In reality, what can you see by taking a train and sightseeing? At least Ning Weidong didn't expect this. But the same thing goes, it's not a matter of principle and Ning Weidong doesn't want to, and there's no need for him to go against Wang Ye. This kind of silence is not weakness, but makes your voice more powerful at critical moments. At that time, Wang Ye would just say, "I've listened to you all the way, so what's wrong with listening to me this time?" and Wang Ye would not be able to say anything back. Two hours went by quickly. The train arrived in Harbin and slowly stopped at the station. Ning Weidong and others put on more clothes before getting off the bus. The coldness of Heilongjiang Province is indescribable for outsiders. The temperature at that time was lower than in later generations, and there were not as many cars in the city that could dissipate heat.

Even though it was only October 1st today, Ning Weidong felt a chill when he got out of the car. After saying goodbye to Wang Caixia, the few of them walked out from the exit. At first glance, I saw someone holding a large paper shell with Wang Ye's name written on it in black pen. Wang Ye went up and shook hands with the other party and said a few simple words. Then several people followed the other party and got into a small passenger car on the side of the road. Ning Weidong had been to Harbin before he traveled through time. It was the first time for Hu Bayi and Ning Wei to come here. Looking at the exotic buildings, they were a little dazzled. Hu Bayi's facial expressions are better managed and not as obvious as Ning Wei's. Ten minutes later, the car stopped downstairs of the guesthouse. This is a four-story Russian-style building with a cement-gray exterior, intricate decorations, and a church-like spire. After getting off the car and walking into the gate of the guesthouse, the person who picked them up at the station and Wang Ye went to the front desk to negotiate with the staff, got the room key, and then went to the second floor. A total of three rooms were booked, one for Wang Ye, one for Ning Weidong and Ning Wei, and one for Hu Bayi and Li Peizhong. After settling down, the person who picked us up left. Wang Ye called a few people together: "Stay overnight today, the train will be at 5 o'clock tomorrow morning, go to bed early at night, there is nothing to do during the day, you can go for a walk outside..." Ning Weidong had no objection to these arrangements. After finishing, Wang Ye returned to his room. Li Peizhong said he was going to see an old classmate and also left alone. Ning Weidong said to Hu Bayi: "Old Hu, take Xiaowei out to see and experience the customs of Eastern Moscow." Hu Bayi nodded, and Ning Wei wanted to ask Ning Weidong why he didn't go, but he immediately realized that Ning Weidong must have something to do, so he swallowed his words back. After the two of them left, Ning Weidong went to the bathroom to tidy himself up first. The conditions in the guesthouse are good. There is a bathroom in the room, and even a bathtub in the bathroom. The conditions on the train are limited, so I just wash up briefly in the morning. In the bathroom, hot water appeared as soon as the faucet was turned on. Ning Weidong shaved carefully, washed his face and brushed his teeth again. He felt much refreshed. Then he returned to the room, sat on the bed and picked up the phone on the bedside table. "Hello, comrade, I'm looking for Chen Baohua~" Ning Weidong said to the phone: "My name is Ning Weidong, I'm from Beijing." After a moment, the call was connected again. Ning Weidong smiled and said, "Brother Dabao, I just arrived in Harbin. Do you have time...Okay, that's good. See you later." Chen Baohua's name contains the word "Bao" and he is the eldest in the family. Zhao Ruyu is used to calling him "Big Brother Bao" and his younger brother Chen Baoqing "Erbao Brother". When Ning Weidong came to Harbin, he naturally wanted to meet people from Zhao Ruyu's mother's family. Putting aside their relationship, he did help Natasha with her affairs before. Zhao Ruyu had already contacted him by phone before coming, and when Ning Weidong called again, the other party was not too surprised. Ning Weidong hung up the phone, went downstairs and arrived at the lobby on the first floor.

There are sofas and tables and chairs to sit on. About ten minutes later, a man wearing a gray Zhongshan suit, black leather shoes, and a front cap, about the same age as Zhao Lichun, walked in. Ning Weidong immediately stood up, rushed over, stretched out his hands and said, "Brother Dabao, hello!" Ning Weidong had seen a photo of Chen Baohua at Zhao Ruyu's place. Although it was taken more than ten years ago, the appearance was still pretty much the same. The other party immediately extended his hand to shake hands and patted Ning Weidong's arm enthusiastically: "Ning Weidong! This guy is half a head taller than me." Chen Baohua was very happy, and his face was full of smiles when he mentioned Zhao Ruyu: "That tiger girl is born with a strong will. She had to find someone like you. Ordinary men really can't control her." The two of them went upstairs to chat. Since they were relatives, they quickly became familiar with each other. Ning Weidong said: "Brother Dabao, are your aunt and uncle in good health?" Chen Baohua said: "It's all OK~" Ning Weidong said, "When I came here, Ruyi repeatedly told me to visit my aunt and uncle when I go to Harbin." Chen Baohua laughed: "Ruyi was best friends with my mother when she was little, but it's a pity that my second aunt..." Speaking of Zhao Ruyi's mother, Chen Baoqing sighed: "Weidong, your relationship with Ruyi is settled, so be nice to her in the future. Don't look at her as carefree and heartless, she is actually a poor child. When my second aunt passed away, she was only eleven..." Ning Weidong quickly assured: "Brother Dabao, don't worry, I will definitely treat Ruyi well." Chen Baohua smiled, chatted for a few more words, and asked, "Weidong, what business do you have in Heilongjiang Province this time? Ruyi didn't explain it clearly when she called me that day. If there's anything I can help you with, just tell me. Don't be polite." Ning Weidong said, "Brother Dabao, I'm definitely not polite to you, but I'm just passing by and will leave early tomorrow morning. I thought I had some time, so I came to see my aunt and uncle." Chen Baohua was stunned. He came from the capital and was just passing by here. Where was he going this time? If you go further north, you will go abroad. Chen Baohua's eyes rolled, and when he thought about how he had helped send Natasha's family of three to the capital, he instantly caught a clue. I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. Could it be that Ning Weidong was really going abroad this time? A thought flashed through his mind, and Chen Baohua didn't ask any more questions. Since Ning Weidong didn't mention it, he simply pretended that he didn't know: "Let's do this. I'll come pick you up after get off work tonight. When Baoqing and his wife go back, we'll go to my parents' place together." Ning Weidong said: "Okay, then I'll wait for you to come and pick me up." After the deal was made, Chen Baohua stayed for a while and then left. He was just leaving the class. Although given his position, he probably isn't afraid of being investigated, but it still doesn't look good. After sending his cousin to the door and watching him get into a 212 jeep and drive away, Ning Weidong turned back. He had no interest in going out, so he returned to his room in the guesthouse and sorted out the gifts he had brought. When we go to visit the elders at the Chen family, we must not go empty-handed. Then he looked at the time, took off his shoes and went to bed, put his hands behind his head, and thought about what he might encounter when he went to Speedlink. But my thoughts were in a mess. I thought about this and that, and two hours had passed before I knew it. Ning Weidong felt a little hungry. I had a simple meal on the train in the morning, including a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun.

After calling the front desk and asking about the location of the restaurant, Ning Weidong did not look for Wang Ye and went to the restaurant alone to have a bite. When he finished eating and was about to go back, he happened to meet Wang Ye walking to the restaurant door. The two of them didn't feel awkward because they were eating separately and didn't call each other. He nodded and walked past. It was not until around two o'clock in the afternoon that Hu Bayi and Ning Wei returned. The two bought some souvenirs, but they were very restrained and only bought small items, knowing that they would have to go to Sulian next. Ning Weidong asked the two if they had eaten, and said that he had to go out in the evening and asked them to find their own way to eat. Ning Wei and Hu Bayi didn't expect that Ning Weidong had relatives in Harbin. But the two of them didn't say much. By the afternoon, it was getting dark before five o'clock. Ning Weidong just received a call from Chen Baohua and came down with a gift. At night, the temperature dropped a few degrees. Ning Weidong was physically strong and was not afraid of getting sick, but he felt uncomfortable with the cold. Fortunately, Chen Baohua arrived soon and asked Ning Weidong to drive away quickly. The two chatted for a while in the car and came to the residence of the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau. Chen's father was the leader of the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau and lived in the small building in the front row. Judging from the architectural style, it should be left by the Japanese. There are three rows of Japanese-style buildings in total. The Chen family is the second household in the first row. Chen Baohua parked the car and walked inside with Ning Weidong, shouting, "Dad, Mom, I brought back my ideal partner..." Pushing open the door, there was a terrazzo floor inside. Chen Baohua walked straight in without changing his shoes, and Ning Weidong followed closely. Passing through a three-meter-long entrance hall, there is the living room. A woman wearing an apron and a curly haircut stood up to greet them. Her nose and eyes looked a bit like Zhao Ruyu. The woman saw Ning Weidong looking him up and down, and said with a smile: "What a good boy!" It must be said that Ning Weidong's appearance is indeed impressive and anyone can't fail to find fault with him at first sight. Ning Weidong called out "Auntie". Although he and Zhao Ruyu haven't obtained their marriage certificate yet, there's no need to be pretentious at this time. Mother Chen sighed heavily and said, "Come here quickly and let your aunt take a good look at you." As she spoke, she choked up a little. I thought about this and that, and then I thought about Zhao Ruyu, and then I thought about my second sister, who passed away so early. Ning Weidong obediently took a few steps forward, put down the gift in his hand, and let Chen's mother hold his hand. Mother Chen looked at him carefully: "This big guy, how tall is he?"

Ning Weidong said: "Just over meters." Mother Chen nodded repeatedly: "Ruyi is tall, so she won't be a good match for someone younger." He patted Ning Weidong's hand again, then let go and introduced him to Father Chen beside him: "Weidong, this is your uncle." Ning Weidong shouted hurriedly. Mr. Chen had a thin face, a medium build, and a thick mustache. He responded without saying much. At this time, two women came out from the kitchen after hearing the noise outside. The leader had short hair, a round face, a big butt, and very white skin, not the white that white people have, but white with a rosy glow. She couldn't be called very pretty but was quite attractive. She was holding a spatula in her hand and looking at Ning Weidong. Chen Baohua introduced: "This is my wife, your sister-in-law." Ning Weidong hurriedly called out, "Hello, sister-in-law." Mrs. Chen responded. Chen Baohua added: "That's Baoqing's wife, you call her Second Sister-in-law." The woman behind nodded. Compared with Chen Dasao, a typical old lady from Northeast China, Chen Ersao looks more graceful and thinner. However, in the freezing cold Heilongjiang Province, being thin is not a good thing. It is not resistant to cold and cannot withstand the elements. If it snows, you may slip and fall. If you have flesh on your body, you will just get up and walk away after feeling the pain. If you encounter someone with no flesh on his body, you have to use your bones to bear the consequences, and if you are not careful you may end up with a broken bone. Before he could finish his words, the door behind him was pushed open. A bearded man was holding a cardboard box with "Beida Cang" printed in red letters on it. The man put down the box, and there was a sound of glass bottles colliding inside. It turned out to be a box of twelve bottles of white wine. Ning Weidong's mouth twitched, thinking that this was a life-threatening situation~ Chen Baohua introduced: "This is Baoqing... This is Ruyi's object, Ning Weidong." Ning Weidong hurriedly called out "Brother Erbao". Chen Baoqing laughed, took off the knitted gloves on his hands, and shook hands with Ning Weidong: "Ning Weidong, I have heard of your great name for a long time!" Ning Weidong was stunned. Chen Baoqing raised his eyebrows: "Why, you don't know it yourself?" Ning Weidong was really confused. Chen Baoqing said, "Others don't know, and our family doesn't know either, but what kind of personality does Ruyi have? I've heard everything. When you two were dating, Ruyi proposed a lot of excessive conditions..." Chen Baoqing talked a lot and knew everything about it. Except for Chen Baoqing's wife, all the other members of the Chen family seemed to be unaware of the inside story.

Ning Weidong didn't know where Chen Baoqing heard it from. Chen's mother frowned and said, "Ruyi!" Then she said to Ning Weidong, "Weidong, Ruyi is wrong in this matter. Auntie will call her later." Ning Weidong laughed dryly. Chen Baoqing glanced at Ning Weidong and said to his mother, "Mom, you don't have to tell me this. Do you know what my brother-in-law said at the time?" "What did you say?" Chen's mother was curious, and the others were also interested. Chen Baoqing looked at Ning Weidong and said in a lifelike manner: "Let me ask you, can you take a beating~" In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Ning Weidong, making Ning Weidong feel embarrassed. In fact, he had nothing to be embarrassed about. He was not afraid of being stared at by more people. He scratched the back of his head and said, "It's all a joke, all a joke." Ning Weidong didn't know where Chen Baoqing heard the gossip, but it indirectly proved that this unkempt man had his source of information in the capital. As for this matter, at the beginning, Zhao Ruyu and Ning Weidong had just met and had no feelings for each other. She complained to others and then the news spread. But it's nothing serious, just a joke between young people. Mrs. Chen's eyes lit up, and she came closer: "Did you really say that?" Ning Weidong smiled, which was considered as his agreement. Mrs. Chen still felt it was not enough and asked again, "Did you really hit me?" But Chen Baohua glared at him and said, "Hurry up and cook." Mrs. Chen glared back at him with great force, but she gave her husband face in front of outsiders, so she responded obediently and pulled the second son's wife back to the kitchen. Then he mentioned the gift Ning Weidong brought. People are carrying things in, so we can't just leave it alone. The general routine is, just come, why carry things? Ning Weidong said, these were all prepared by Ruyi and asked me to bring them here to honor you and my uncle. Then Chen's mother asked about the situation at the Zhao family, as well as Ning Weidong's situation, family, work... He didn't get up and come to the dining table until his two daughters-in-law called everyone to eat. Chen Baohua and Chen Baoqing both have children, a girl and a boy, and including Ning Weidong, there are nine people in total. Taking advantage of the spaciousness of the house, a large round table was set up and filled with ten dishes. Chen Baoqing took out a bottle of wine and handed it to his eldest brother. Chen Baohua opened it and poured it for his father first. Chen Baoqing poured wine for Ning Weidong. Ning Weidong was not polite and let Chen Baoqing fill the glass. A glass weighs about three taels.

There was only soda left for the three women and children to drink. They were all filled, and Father Chen picked up the glass first: "Well, let me pick one first..." The old man was obviously an old hand in the bar. He said some polite words and finally emphasized that we should stop working because we were all family and should eat first. Ning Weidong took a sip. The wine from Beidachang is quite good. The grain used for brewing is good and the technology is from Guizhou Province. It is rare in the north and it has a bit of the essence of Moutai. Then he started eating. But this table of dishes really made Ning Weidong secretly shocked. No wonder there is no Northeastern cuisine among the eight major cuisines. Chen's mother beside him kept asking: "Weidong, try this flying dragon stewed with mushrooms..." Ning Weidong took a look at the soup bowl and found that it was a second-level protected animal. "Weidong, this is called Hashemat..." "Weidong, this is cured sika deer meat..." Fortunately, Ning Weidong did not see the bear paw on the table. Ning Weidong was not polite. If we ate less of these things, we would not be able to eat them anymore no matter how much money we had. Although there are still products in foreign countries, the problem is that there are no chefs. Once it is banned, the old chefs will not cook anymore because their skills are not good enough, and the new chefs will not learn at all. The food on the Chen family's table is homely and the flavor is truly rare. Ning Weidong ate a lot and didn't leave Chen's house until eight o'clock in the evening and got into Chen Baohua's jeep. Chen Baohua drank nearly a pound of alcohol, so he definitely can't drive. His wife sat in the driver's seat, started the engine and shifted gears skillfully, then turned around and said, "Brother Weidong, sit tight." Ning Weidong responded and immediately felt a push on his back. This 212 was actually being driven like a coupe. …… At the same time, in the Chen family's small building. Chen's mother and her second daughter-in-law cleared the table, and the remaining three men sat on the sofa in the living room drinking tea to sober up. Although Mr. Chen is over 50 years old, he is in very good health. He did not feel any discomfort after drinking more than half a pound of liquor. The Chen brothers and Ning Weidong drank nearly a pound of wine, and their faces were all red. Father Chen took a sip of tea, put down the enamel teacup, and asked, "What do you think of Ning Weidong?" The second son, Chen Baoqing, said, "He was born in an ordinary working class family, but he was able to win the girl Ruyi and also be favored by the second uncle. He is definitely not an ordinary person." Chen Baohua glanced at the second brother and let him speak, so it was up to him to say anything.

Father Chen looked over and said in a deep voice, "Boss, what did he come out of the capital for this time?" Chen Baohua said, "I asked him about it during the day, but he didn't reveal anything. He just said he was just passing by. Add to that the one called Natasha a while ago, and I think it's probably related to Sulian." Father Chen pursed his lips and nodded: "It's okay, the wine didn't go to my head." Chen Baohua grinned and didn't dare to respond. He has no other problems except that he is a bit of a drinker. Father Chen said, "Since your second aunt passed away, and we are thousands of kilometers away, we really can't take care of her, and we don't see your second uncle very often..." Neither of Chen Baohua's brothers responded. In fact, his family did not have close ties with the Zhao family. It was far from as simple as his father said. Of course, the death of Zhao Ruyu's mother was a reason, but the more important reason was that the Chen family and the Zhao family were not originally in the same boat. However, that was all old news, and the situation has changed a lot now. After 71, although Chen's father was lucky enough not to be implicated, he had no hope of promotion and his life was over. On the contrary, Zhao's father saw the situation getting better. Originally, the Chen family was not jealous. They thought that the country was far away and there was nothing wrong with them just living their own lives. But the last time Zhao Ruyu took the initiative to contact and inquire about Liu Guangzhi and Natasha's situation, it brought an opportunity. At the same time, further news came from Zhao's father. There are now two paths before the Chen family: Either they maintain the status quo, and when Chen's father retires in a few years, it will be difficult for the two brothers to reach his level, but they will still be at the deputy director level in the future. If they are lucky, they may even be able to advance half a level before retirement. The advantage is that it is stable and does not involve getting involved in the disputes in the capital. Either actively move closer to the Zhao family and re-label them. The benefits are very obvious. With Chen's father's qualifications, there is great hope that he can make further progress and open up space for the Chen brothers in the future. But any gain is accompanied by risks. Once a decision is made, all will prosper or suffer together. If anything happens to Zhao's father, the Chen family will also be implicated. For a moment, the father and his two sons fell silent. A few minutes later, Chen Baohua said, "Dad, we've drunk today, so let's not talk about this." Father Chen snorted, which was considered as his agreement. But at this moment, Chen Baoqing said, "Dad, big brother, our unit is going to Beijing for a seminar next month. How about I go and meet my second uncle?" Father Chen narrowed his eyes and fell silent again. After a while, he waved his hand again and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, let's see where Ning Weidong goes this time." Then he looked at Chen Baohua: "Boss, keep an eye on him. If he really goes to Sulian this time... let's see what happens first." Chen Baohua said: "Dad, I understand."

…… At this time, Ning Weidong returned to the guesthouse, and he didn't know that the Chen family had their eyes on him. Although he drank a lot, for Ning Weidong, a pound of liquor was not much. I went back to the room and took a shower, and the drunkenness was completely gone. I looked at the time. It was almost ten o'clock. Just as I was about to lie down to sleep because I had to get up early the next day, there was a knock on the door. Ning Weidong had just laid down, propped himself up on his elbows, glanced at the door, and motioned Ning Wei to open the door. The one who came was Wang Ye. Ning Weidong could tell from her expression that something was not good, so he immediately sat up and asked, "What happened?" Wang Ye said: "I just received news that there is a problem in Heihe. We have to modify our itinerary." Ning Weidong frowned and looked at Wang Ye. The other party only said that there was a problem, but did not disclose what the problem was, and obviously had no intention of saying it. Ning Weidong simply didn't ask. Wang Ye was not his subordinate, so it would be useless to ask. The question now is how to respond. Ning Weidong said in a deep voice: "Is it our problem or the other side's problem?" Although we don't ask for the specific reasons, we must find out where the problem arises. Wang Ye pursed his lips and said, "It's the other side. It could be a coincidence, or it could be targeting us. I'm not sure yet." Ning Weidong frowned. The other side targeted him and wanted to stop him? This doesn't make sense at all~ Ning Weidong is just a small figure without an official identity. Although the relationship between the two sides has been bad in recent years, it is not a big deal to pass on information privately and have some personnel exchanges. Or maybe the arrival of Seryosha and his wife attracted some people's attention. Ning Weidong couldn't figure it out for a moment, and it was obvious that Wang Ye didn't understand either. Ning Weidong said: "What about the backup plan? Don't say you didn't prepare it." ——Eight thousand words, please subscribe. Checking in on a certain audio platform, welcome to watch and supervise.
