Go back to the past and be a schoolboy

Chapter 290
"People from the public house? Who are they? Where are they?"

Opening the door, Cheng Nuo asked with a frown.

Li Laosan panted and replied: "Not many people came, just two policemen, who have already arrived at the door, but I was worried that they would be harmful to my husband, so I didn't answer directly, and the door didn't open. If it's inconvenient for you, sir, I will tell them directly that you are not at home."

Cheng Nuo refused and said, "I just sent two policemen over to prove that the other party is just making routine inquiries, and it's not a big deal. Don't stop them, just open the door and come in."

Li Laosan breathed out: "Okay, I'll go there now."

But before Laosan Li had gone far, Cheng Nuo stopped him again: "Forget it, the other party also saw me. I have gone out to meet the students and little six children before. The outside must know that I am at home. It cannot be concealed. Well, I will go to see them directly."

The little six next to him hesitated a little, and didn't know whether his identity was suitable or not: "Professor, I..."

Cheng Nuo comforted, "It's okay, you can do whatever you need to do. Don't forget, there is still half a bowl of stewed pork vermicelli for you in the pot. Don't leave if you can't finish it!"

Xiao Liuzi's face suddenly collapsed: "There is still half a bowl..."

Cheng Nuo didn't hear this, and walked straight towards the gate.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

"Is anyone at home? I'm on business, open the door quickly..."

The ground was about to be covered with hoarfrost by the ash hammer on the door, Li Laosan couldn't hold back anymore, and shouted loudly: "What's the rush? It's not over here, if you hammer any more, the door panel will fall off!"

The voice outside the door was even more dissatisfied, and he pushed his throat and said: "Then why don't you open the door quickly, there hasn't been a sound for a long time, I thought it was dumb?"

Li Laosan was a little unconvinced immediately: "Hey, I said..."

"I'm going to open the door now, please wait a moment." Cheng Nuo winked, motioned Li Laosan to step back first, stepped forward and removed the door bolt, opened the door and said politely: "You two gentlemen, do you know what you can do with me?"

After looking Cheng Nuo up and down, he could tell by his clothes and temperament that he was definitely not a housekeeper. After the two policemen looked at each other, the leader put his baton around his waist, and said slowly, "Are you Professor Cheng Nuocheng?"

"It's guaranteed." Cheng Nuo cupped his hands and said in a calm tone: "When Mr. Zhang Guogan from the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce invited me to discuss matters, I happened to see two gentlemen standing guard at the door. At that time, I felt that we were destined. I didn't expect that we would meet again after a long time."

"This... this is indeed some kind of fate." At the beginning, the leader's attitude was a little arrogant, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but arched his body. When he saw his companion still holding his body upright, he just slapped his ass: "Professor Cheng, I didn't expect you to have such a good memory. We were the two of us working there at the beginning."

The subordinate was a little stunned, his nostrils were almost reaching the sky, and after being kicked for no reason, he looked at the leader's performance, instantly became more awake, and obediently retreated back.

Cheng Nuo was very polite: "I don't know what you can do with me, Mr. Cheng? If I, Cheng, can help, I will never refuse."

The leader bowed his waist: "Actually, it's nothing wrong, but for some reason, a little devil was beaten nearby. Shangfeng found out and ordered us to investigate. I thought Professor Cheng was so close to the incident, and I wanted to see if you could know something about it."

Cheng Nuo was surprised, but also intentionally surprised: "Someone else beat him? Which strong man did it? It's really hard work for a strong man."

The leader had a troubled face on his face: "Actually...he is not a strong man, but if we really want to count, maybe the one just now is a strong man, and the little devil deserves it. If he insists on coming to our place to provoke public anger, isn't he looking for a waist to get beaten himself?"

Cheng Nuo suddenly realized, and said bitterly: "So that's the case, but I was receiving a few students just now, and I didn't bother to go out. I don't know much about the situation outside. Otherwise, I will have to make up my feet and let them occupy our Qingdao!"

The leader also gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, if I were present, at least two feet should be sent up, but..."

Taking the initiative to get closer, the leader said in a low voice: "But this foreigner is a foreigner after all. To put it bluntly, it doesn't matter if he is a Westerner or an Easterner. His words are easier to use than us ordinary people. If such a big incident happened, I guess the higher-ups will not be easy to deal with."

Cheng Nuo followed with a sigh and said, "It makes sense, but the law does not blame the public, and there is no way to catch any murderers."

"Isn't that right, where to arrest people, it's obviously a thankless job, otherwise it wouldn't have fallen into the hands of our brothers." Thinking of this, the leader immediately turned into a bitter face.

Cheng Nuo came up with an idea: "The fact that there are so many people is not necessarily a bad thing. Since the other party has provoked public outrage, they must have done something outrageous. With so many witnesses, it would be great if the blame could be put directly on the little devil. I guess the guy who was beaten is not a good person in the first place."

The more he thought about it, the more interesting it became, and the leader's eyes immediately lit up: "Yeah, why didn't I think of this, just list some things and install them all for him, it doesn't take so much effort at all."

Cheng Nuo asked with a smile, "How is the beaten little devil doing now?"

The leader replied: "The face is swollen from being kicked. I guess I will have to lie in bed for at least a month, or even become a fool."

Cheng Nuo was genuinely surprised now: "Is it really that serious?"

The leader gossiped: "Professor, you haven't seen the real person. That guy has invited several old doctors, and they all shook their heads and left. In the end, they were sent to Dongyang Hospital. It's not certain whether they can be cured."

Seeing the audience outside the door who refused to leave, Cheng Nuo already believed this in his heart: "It's better to hold your breath, but it's so easy to die."

The leader shook his head, didn't pick up the topic, and then cupped his hands and said solemnly: "Let's do it first, I believe that Professor Cheng will never participate in this riot, but if you have anything to do, please tell me directly."

Cheng Nuo smiled and said, "Okay, I will contact you in time if there is anything."

Just as the two errands were about to leave, Cheng Nuo winked at Li Laosan, Li Laosan understood instantly, and caught up with him and gave the leader 5 yuan.

"Grandpa, the weather is rather cold, and there is nothing at home to entertain the two of you. Why don't you take some money to drink some hot wine to warm yourself up? This way you will have more strength to solve the case." Li Laosan laughed.

Looking at the neat five oceans, which is almost half a month's salary, placed in front of him, not to mention his heartbeat, he would be coaxing the children, but he was really afraid of Cheng Nuo's influence, so he hesitated and said, "This... this is not suitable, is it?"

"What's inappropriate about this, I think it's quite appropriate!" At this time, Li Laosan had already lost his honesty, and the word "smart" was clearly written on his face: "I heard that you poor people are busy working outside in the winter, and at the end of the month, the public can't get the money. How can you explain it? You deserve it."

While talking, Li Laosan directly took out the leader's hand, and held Dayang in the other's palm: "You can rest assured, if anyone dares to say no, I will have to trouble him personally!"

The leader immediately laughed, but the smile seemed more sincere at this time: "Then I will accept it. From now on, Professor Cheng's business will be my business. As long as there is a need, feel free to say anything!"

Li Laosan said nothing more, patted the other party's shoulder as a greeting, turned around and went back.

When he was almost gone, the subordinate whispered: "Brother-in-law, you have already gone back, what are we going to do next?"

The leader stretched out his hand, looked at the five oceans inside, and couldn't help saying happily: "What are you doing, of course I went to drink. I was blown by the northwest wind for a long time, and my face was almost frozen and I didn't feel it."

The brother-in-law was still a little hesitant: "But brother-in-law, why did I hear people say that the person involved in the fight seemed to have a northeast accent, so I went to Professor Cheng's house, why didn't I see you just now and asked him?"

The brother-in-law immediately turned pale, drained one of the oceans in his hand, blew hard on his mouth, and then put it in the other's ear: "Did you hear anything?"

After listening for a long time, my brother-in-law didn't understand why: "Okay...it seems to be only the wind?"

The brother-in-law was completely speechless, and stuffed the piece of ocean into the other party's arms: "This is called the voice of money, the voice of ocean, with this thing, your sister will not always scold us, understand? I really don't know what your brain is pretending every day? If you don't have a lot of energy, you won't be recruited no matter what you say."

Even though my brother-in-law still didn't get the hang of it, for Dayang's sake, he still couldn't help saying happily, "Hey, I got it."

The brother-in-law picked up the hat and slapped the other person on the head: "Guawazi, you know how to hammer and hammer, you know how to eat, but if you don't know, you think you were born by a starving ghost. Remember, don't tell your sister about this."

"Ah? Why?"

"Why why, why are there so many every day? Just let you do it and follow it, it's nothing!"

"Oh fine……"

In the courtyard, Li Laosan, who had just brought back the money, closed the door again, and said in confusion while busy: "Sir, why did you give them the money? It doesn't seem to be very useful, and they can't use it."

Cheng Nuo smiled and shook his head: "It's easy to see the king of hell, but it's hard to deal with little ghosts. Although these people don't have much power, it seems that they can't do anything big, but it's because these people deal with our lives most often. If we really mess with them, we will make trouble from time to time. Although we can't lose anything, we can be disgusting enough."

Li Laosan nodded: "That's true."

After stomping his feet to remove the snow from the shoes, Cheng Nuo turned around and said, "But having said that, we can't let them take our money for nothing. You can go to them later and then add up the total. Keep an eye on the situation around our yard. These guys are smart."

Li Laosan nodded: "Okay, I'll write this down, I can't say anything else, but whenever strangers come over, these people can still recognize them at a glance, so we should be prepared."

Back in the office, as soon as the front foot stepped on the threshold, the back foot Xiaoliuzi rushed to the door:

"Professor, these people don't know that Dongbei Zhang's son has come to attack the Japanese after hearing the news. If the truth comes out, our Fengjun will be quite passive!"

Cheng Nuo originally wanted to tell the truth, but seeing the other party's nervous appearance, he still couldn't help but joked, "The other party seems to really mean something, and they have already asked."

Little Six immediately became more nervous: "Ah? Where are we now? Professor Cheng, you won't sell me out, will you?"

Cheng Nuo pretended to be very angry: "Am I the kind of person who betrays my friends? I didn't reveal any information about you, even if there is a reward, I don't even want it!"

Hearing this, Xiao Liuzi became even more anxious after being moved: "Professor, I'm the one who dragged you down this time. I'm just packing up. When I reach Fengtian safely, I will definitely repay you well."

After saying this, Little Six really wanted to pack up his things, but while doing so, he vaguely heard some people laughing.

At first, I thought it was because the windows were not glued tightly, which caused some air leakage in the house and made some noises.

But the more he listened, the more something went wrong, and the laughter grew louder. Suddenly, he turned around and found that Cheng Nuo was laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten up.

At this moment, no matter how stupid and nervous Little Six was, he knew he was being tricked. He was only joking just now, and after feeling relieved, there was a hint of complaint in his tone: "Professor, you are scaring people to death. I am ready to be detained in Beijing."

Cheng Nuo handed over a chair and apologized, "I really felt sorry for you just now, but I didn't expect you to actually participate in this matter. It really boosted our ambition!"

Little Six wiped the sweat from his brow: "This is nothing more than a boost of ambition. It's just a young man who can't stand the arrogance of the little devil. At that time, he didn't expect what would happen if things got bigger. Professor, do you think the Japanese will take advantage of it?"

Cheng Nuo organized his speech briefly, and then said: "If we extend the historical line of the little devil, starting from Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Conquest of Korea, the theory of conquest of Korea in the early Meiji period, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, and the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905,

It is not difficult to see a clear trajectory from nationalism to nationalism, from nationalism to imperialism, from sending troops to Qingdao during the European War, and finally to sending troops to Siberia now. "

Little Six pondered for a moment: "Little devil can make bad water?"

Cheng Nuo said seriously, "Regardless of whether this happened or not, certain things should happen or will happen."

As for the more blunt words, he doesn't want to say it for the time being, because he knows that it is useless to say it. Many warlords can't escape the support of the big powers behind them if they want to develop.

After thinking about it, I decided to change the topic: "To tell you the truth, I do have some good relations with the Krupp company in Germany. I wonder how much you plan to purchase? I have a good idea."

It just so happened that Zai Tao and the others had already arrived in Europe, so the chances of getting things done were greater.

The so-called international meeting was nothing more than a spoils-sharing conference, and Cheng Nuo didn't mind getting a share of it.

As for the military factory, there should still be one in the future.

Since history cannot be violated, then follow the trend!

Done!
