Chapter 154: The Revolutionary Party Returns

That evening, Wu Shaoting finished his meal in the military canteen and returned to the dormitory. The new army soldiers in the military camp had few entertainment activities on weekdays, even though not many people participated in gambling. Everyone went to bed early and got up early, and occasionally kept exercising according to Wu Shaoting's advice. After dark, the military camp basically became very quiet. Even if there were noisy places, it was the old army's camp. He had just walked to the stairs of the dormitory and met several officers who had just come out and greeted him.

When the stairs were only halfway up, a shout suddenly came from behind him: "Mr. Wu."

This is Ni Duan's voice, which he had long been familiar with.

"Is there anything wrong?" Wu Shaoting turned around and asked.

"I have something to do." Ni Duan said simply, and then stepped up the stairs in three or two steps.

After hearing this, Wu Shaoting knew that Ni Duan was bringing news about the Tongmenghui, so he didn't say much and took Ni Duan back to his dormitory tacitly. After closing the dormitory door, Ni Duan took off his military cap and slapped himself a gust of wind, which shows the heat in Guangzhou's summer.

"Mr. Zhan Tang is back." He said while fanning his military cap and wiping his sweat on his sleeves.

"I'm back now? Has the wanted notice from the government revoked?" Wu Shaoting asked in surprise. Hu Hanmin's identity was exposed, and the government already knew that he was an important figure in the revolutionary party, so the wanted force would definitely not be weak. It was only half a year since the incident happened. Isn't it a bit too anxious?

"The government is still wanted, but it doesn't matter. Mr. Zhan Tang was introduced by Chen Jingcun and returned to the mainland by the Huizhou Advisory Council member covering his identity. He is now in Huizhou, and it may take some time to arrive in Guangzhou." Ni Duan said carefully.

"I understand, does Mr. Zhan Tang have any advice?" Wu Shaoting asked.

"Yes, Chen Jingcun asked one of his classmates to come to Guangzhou to meet me in the afternoon. However, what he wanted to bring was not what Mr. Zhan Tang said, but Mr. Liao Zhongkai entrusted Mr. Zhan Tang to give you." Ni Duan said.

Wu Shaoting felt a little funny. He had been passing this message several times, hoping not to pass it wrong. He nodded and said, "What news, please tell me."

Ni Duan then said: "Mr. Liao Zhongkai and other comrades in the meeting have deeply reflected on the reasons for the failure of the last operation and promised not to trust such a despicable villain anymore."

Wu Shaoting smiled and said, "This is what it should be. It almost harmed many people last time."

Ni Duan sighed, looking helpless. Everyone was mentally prepared for such a risky career.

He continued: "Mr. Liao Zhongkai said that although the last action failed, it could not stop the pace of the revolution. He knew that Lord Wu, you are promoted to staff officer and have gained a lot of morale. Moreover, if it were not for Lord Wu, you took risks to inform the news last time, I am afraid that the Tongmenghui would suffer a heavy blow."

"Haha, since everyone is on the same boat, they should naturally help each other. This is my duty." Wu Shaoting responded politely, but he just felt that these words were not the point and could jump over as soon as possible.

"Mr. Liao Zhongkai means, Lord Wu, you are the most trusted person in our Tongmenghui. I hope you will preside over the arrangement of the next meeting. I don't know what?" Ni Duan said expectantly.

Wu Shaoting thought for a while and then said, "I have no problem hosting, but I still recommend not meeting in Guangzhou, Huizhou, Foshan and even Hong Kong. These places are not far away and are safer."

Ni Duan nodded in agreement and said, "I think so too. I will convey the words to Mr. Zhan Tang."

Wu Shaoting asked, "When will cousin Zhan and Mr. Zhongkai meet?"

Ni Duan said: "Although I haven't said it yet, since Mr. Zhan Tang has been back, it shouldn't be too long. It's almost the case within this month."

Wu Shaoting thought for a while, then said, "Okay, I understand. I will arrange a meeting place. In addition, if Mr. Zhongkai and others want to enter Hong Kong, I can also provide a safe way."

Ni Duan smiled and said, "Mr. Wu is really getting more and more powerful."

Wu Shaoting's path is actually very simple. He is to use the cover of Zhang Shengting's Hong Kong branch to send these people back to the mainland. Zhang Shengting's company is now a big company in the south, and has already completed the official documents of Hong Kong and Macao without inspection. Anyway, there are ** where there are people. Those little people who guard the pass know that when they see this kind of official documents, they know that there are people in this company and they dare not even ask for the handling fee.

"By the way, does Mr. Zhan Tang have any questions about the purpose of this meeting?" Wu Shaoting asked again.

"This is not clear yet. I will take leave the day after tomorrow to go to Huizhou and meet Mr. Zhantang before talking. I think it should be about discussing the matter of launching another uprising." Ni Duan said guessingly.

"I hope everyone can be more cautious this time." Wu Shaoting said earnestly.

A few days later, Zhang Xiaoya and Zhang Zhicheng and his sister came to the western suburbs in a car.

They found Wu Shaoting and told Jian Zhaonan that he had returned to Guangzhou and had made an appointment to have dinner together today at noon.

Wu Shaoting had some business to be busy with today, but after hearing this, he immediately handed it over to He Fuguang to take care of it. He got into the car and left the military camp in the western suburbs directly.

He admired Jian Zhaonan very much, or there were many patriotic industrialists in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, all of which were worthy of respect.

It is a blessing to see Jian Zhaonan himself today, so he naturally has to be hasty.

After the car drove into the city, it passed by several streets and stopped at the intersection of Dadong Road.

Dadong Road is close to the eastern suburbs of Guangzhou, not too far from Dongjiaochang, and the second target of the Mixed Association is stationed here. However, the intersection of Dadong Road is still quite popular, and it is noon, bustling and very lively. The layout of this area is quite obvious. The street is located to the south of the street, which is the residence of middle and lower-class people, and to the north is the single-family building of the rich.

After getting off the bus, Zhang Zhicheng asked the driver to park the car first and then walked into a very spacious alley.

The alley is not long and it will soon end. At the end is a Chinese-style courtyard with a small garden, but it looks not old at all. It seems to have been carefully maintained and even reveals a somewhat contemporary atmosphere. When I arrived in front of the main entrance of the courtyard, I saw a gold-burned sandalwood plaque hanging on the main entrance, with a large letter saying "Jian Mansion".

"It turns out that Jian Xian... Uncle is a person who adheres to tradition. I thought he would live in a foreign building." Wu Shaoting stood at the door and sighed.

"This is the ancestral home of Uncle Jian's cousin. Uncle Jian has always lived here when he was in Guangzhou." Zhang Xiaoya introduced.

"That's it." Wu Shaoting nodded.

Zhang Zhicheng walked up to knock on the door, but he found that the door was hidden. After thinking about it, he still knocked on the hidden door for a while.

Soon, an old man walked over quickly from the door and opened the yard gate.

The old man glanced at Zhang Zhicheng and Wu Shaoting. Although he felt that these two young people were unfamiliar, he knew Zhang Xiaoya. Since Zhang Xiaoya became the general manager of Zhang Shengting's company, she often looked decent and wanted to go to the big bosses in Guangzhou to have dinner and discuss business. However, Zhang Zhi was worried that it would be difficult for his daughter to show up like this at a young age, so he was only willing to let her meet those familiar elders. Therefore, the threshold of the family of those familiar uncles almost made Zhang Xiaoya break it.

"So it's Miss Zhang. Please come in quickly, haha." The old man said kindly, letting everyone in.

The old man took the three of them through the door, passed a garden, and came to the front living room.

At this time, a sound of chatting and laughing came from the front living room, as if Jian Zhaonan was entertaining guests.

"Hey, Uncle Wang, who is Uncle Jian talking to?" Zhang Xiaoya asked the old man.

"Yes, the master is meeting with several old friends, including Mr. Wu, whom Miss Zhang knew. The master explained that Miss Zhang had come and invited him to meet him directly in the living room. Of course, there would be no inconvenience." Uncle Wang said with a smile.

"Uncle Wu is here too? Haha, it's very good." Zhang Xiaoya said happily.

Wu Shaoting and Zhang Zhicheng came back. He had heard Zhang Xiaoya mention Mr. Wu before, who is said to be Wu Bingjian's grandson.

Although the Thirteen Investors in Guangzhou have declined, the Wu family was a wealthy family back then and their family background is not shallow. Even if they are passed down for three generations, it should be more than enough. Since we are here today, we can meet us.

After a briefing, I came to the living room and saw Jian Zhaonan wearing a dark gray suit. She was nearly forty years old. Her skin looked a little dark and had a strong sense of vicissitudes. Mr. Wu was wearing a Chinese summer shirt and robe, which was also in his forties. She looked a little fat, and she looked like a wealthy family.

There are several other guests in the living room, each with different outfits, including Chinese and Western, old and young, but it can be seen that they are all people with relatively identities.

Everyone introduced each other, and then Jian Zhaonan politely invited everyone to sit down.

"It turns out that this is the famous General Wu Shaoting and General Wu. He has long been famous. When he sees him today, he is indeed a heroic young man." Jian Zhaonan looked at Wu Shaoting carefully and found that Wu Shaoting was indeed much younger than he thought. It is really amazing that such a young man made a name in Guangzhou in just one year.

"Mr. Jian, you are just lucky, it's not worth mentioning." Wu Shaoting said politely.

"Ahem, Wu Zhenzhi, have you forgotten something?" Zhang Xiaoya suddenly glared at Wu Shaoting and said.

"Uh..." Wu Shaoting was a little amused and crying.

Zhang Zhicheng quickly rescued Wu Shaoting, showed his brother's majesty, and said, "Little sister, don't mess around."

Zhang Xiaoya became unhappy. She was about to play with the little girl's temper, but Jian Zhaonan asked with a smile: "What's wrong? You made me a little confused."

Wu Shaoting had no choice but to tell me about Zhang Xiaoya's name as Uncle Jian.

Everyone present laughed loudly when they heard this.

Jian Zhaonan laughed so hard that she finally recovered and said with Yu Xiaoxiao: "Boss Xiao Zhang really wants to kill me. How dare I act rashly in front of General Wu? I can't be treated as, I can't be treated as such. Boss Xiao Zhang shouldn't do this in the future."

Zhang Xiaoya was a little unhappy, but since Jian Zhaonan had said this herself, she couldn't say anything more.

Everyone chatted for a while, and a servant came to inform the banquet was ready, so Jian Zhaonan asked everyone to move to the restaurant.
