Chapter 196 195. Young, handsome, and talented

"Are you kidding! Can the bureau headquarters know about me? I'm just a second lieutenant and I earn 15 yuan a month. How can Boss Dai know about a little person like me?" Yang Denghuan glared at Cao Youguang and said deliberately.

"You are already a captain, and the headquarters has made an exceptional promotion! The awarding and command ceremony will be held in Shanghai." After Cao Youguang said this, a smile appeared on his face.

"How much does it cost each month?" Yang Denghuan asked quickly.

It doesn't matter whether you are a captain or not, the key is how much you pay every month. This is the most important thing.

A captain is two levels higher than a second lieutenant, so his salary should be doubled, otherwise it would be too unfair.

"42 yuan a month." Cao Youguang said.

"It's only 42 yuan. I heard that university professors pay more than 100 yuan..."

"Stop talking nonsense! 42 is still a little. The rickshaw puller outside wants to break his legs. He only earns seven or eight yuan a month." Cao Youguang looked at the lazy Yang Deng and said with a smile.

"People must have ambitions. If compared with the rickshaw pullers, I would be better off as a patrolman. Why should I join the Secret Service? Why do I have to work so hard?" Yang Denghuan rolled his eyes and said.

Cao Youguang was speechless. Yang Denghuan looked like he really deserved a beating. He really had the urge to tie Yang Denghuan and Amu together.

Thinking of the pitiful faces of Yang Denghuan and Amu tied together, Cao Youguang showed a proud smirk on his face.

"What are you thinking! Look, you're not holding anything back!" Yang Denghuan rolled his eyes at Cao Youguang again.

"Don't you want to know why the superiors sent us to Shanghai?" Cao Youguang asked with a smile.

"What else could it be? It must be for the case, or else it could be for the fried steamed buns and three-yellow chicken? Or the Paramount dancer?" Yang Denghuan said teasingly.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Cao Youguang glared at Yang Denghuan, then smiled and said: "Then you don't want to know, there are so many agents in the Secret Service, especially in the southeastern region, why the headquarters wants to transfer us thousands of miles away from Peking. past?"

Cao Youguang's question is exactly what Yang Denghuan is thinking hard about at the moment. It seems like a nonchalant joke, but in fact, Yang Denghuan's mind is spinning like a windmill.

What kind of case requires the Secret Service to dispatch personnel from Peiping thousands of miles away?
"Tell me why?" Yang Denghuan asked nonchalantly, as if chatting casually.

"The key is that I don't know. The telegram just said that I would select five capable people to go to Shanghai for business." When Cao Youguang said this, he saw Yang Denghuan's eyes widen and said quickly: "You were mentioned in the telegram. Tell me to take you there."

"I don't believe it! Show me the telegram!" Yang Deng said angrily.

Isn’t this a lie?Maybe the captain and the 42 yuan are also a piece of cake.

"The telegram has been archived, but it really mentioned you." At this point, Cao Youguang said in retrospect: "'The investigation field officer Yang Denghuan is thoughtful and capable in action. This investigation operation relied heavily on his strength and took a lot of credit. He was promoted to the rank of The deputy leader of the captain's action team will go to Shanghai together. Select other capable personnel, preferably five, to accompany him on business in Shanghai.'"

When Yang Denghuan heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's pretty much it. Otherwise, if they don't invite us, we'll come on our own, and we'll have many grandchildren!"

"Look what you said! In our organization, discipline is the first priority, obedience is our bounden duty, and there is no bargaining..."

"Do you know what the case is?" Yang Denghuan didn't wait for Cao Youguang to finish his long speech, but suddenly stopped him and said.

"..." Cao Youguang was speechless for a moment.

"It would be great if there is a file to look at! We need to prepare early! The headquarters has come all the way for us to go back. It is not a small case! And if we go without success, we will not lose our own face." Yang Denghuan said leisurely .

Cao Youguang immediately fell silent, and couldn't help but glance at Yang Denghuan meaningfully.

This guy is really a genius, I guessed it almost [-]% of the time!Cao Youguang remembered the call he received from his friend Yu Duxing yesterday.

Yu Duxing is now a high-ranking and high-spirited person in the Secret Service. He has already occupied the high position of the District Director of East China District.

This time, it was Yu Duxing's recommendation that allowed Cao Youguang to get this job. Therefore, if the case was messed up, not only Cao Youguang, but also Yu Duxing would be implicated.

Moreover, Yu Duxing repeatedly emphasized on the phone that this case was more than just a case, so he must treat it with caution.

But when Cao Youguang wanted to ask specifically, Yu Duxing ignored him and did not reveal any information on the phone, which left Cao Youguang a little confused.

Of course, we can't tell Yang Denghuan all this. Cao Youguang just nodded and said, "I have asked the headquarters to telegraph the file to my office. I think we can see it on the way to Shanghai."

Yang Denghuan put his head in his hands, leaned against the sofa, curled his lips and said with a smile: "I hope so!"

Having said this, Yang Denghuan sat up straight, thought for a moment and asked, "Who among the five people are you going to take?"

"Do you have any candidates you need? For example, Da Zui and Lao Qiao?" Cao Youguang asked.

"No need." Yang Denghuan shook his head and said hesitantly: "My identity in the Secret Service has not been made public. Is it appropriate for us to go together?"

"Inappropriate." Cao Youguang shook his head decisively, and then said: "So your order to go to Shanghai will be issued by the Ministry of Police. Others will not know that you are working for the Secret Service."

"When will you leave?" Yang Denghuan asked again.

"On the 5th, I'll call you to inform you of the specific train time." Cao Youguang pointed to the phone and said, looking quite proud.

"This phone call is good, but there are also disadvantages." Yang Deng said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Cao Youguang was stunned.

"It's convenient for me to find others, and it's convenient for others to find me. It doesn't matter if they are the ones who treat guests to dinner, but if they are the ones who arrange work, then don't I tie a rope to myself?" Yang Denghuan said with a smile and deliberately teasing.

"You're such a good boy, you're so good at what you get!" Cao Youguang laughed and scolded, stood up and said, "If you have time in the next two days, go back to your police station and accept the orders from the Police Department!"

"I'm still on vacation!" Yang Denghuan was very dissatisfied.

"There are travel expenses." Cao Youguang said calmly.

"It is my duty to fulfill my duties to the best of my ability. I have never considered whether it is fake or not." Yang Denghuan's eyes lit up and he stood up and said.

"Shameless." Cao Youguang walked to the door, opened it and was about to go out. His girlfriend said, "I have been packing my things at home these two days and am ready to leave for Shanghai at any time."

"Then there's no need to go to Ai Gaoshen's house tomorrow, right?" Yang Deng asked suddenly as he sent Cao Youguang to the door.

"What are you thinking! I don't want to go back to Peiping anymore if I dare to let go of others' pigeons! I will drive to pick you up at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning! You are not allowed to go anywhere, just wait for me at home." Cao Youguang glanced back at Yang Denghuan, Yang Denghuan After quickly nodding in agreement, Cao Youguang walked out of the house.

It's eleven o'clock in the morning, so there is still a little time, enough for me to go to Tianshuijing Hutong. I hope Liu's wife will not disappoint me and can rent the house smoothly.Early the next morning, Yang Denghuan left the house, hailed a foreign car and went straight to Tianshuijing Hutong.

Sure enough, the Liu family's daughter-in-law did not disappoint Yang Denghuan. She successfully negotiated with the landlord and three other households, and agreed to move to vacate the house.

At the end, the Liu family's daughter-in-law said with some embarrassment: "In order to free up a house for my brother, you, I agreed to give them one dollar each as a moving fee."

Without saying a word, Yang Denghuan took out a few silver coins from his pocket, counted four with a smile and handed them to Liu's wife.

The Liu family's daughter-in-law took the silver dollar with a smile, counted it, and said sheepishly: "This is four yuan, three yuan is enough. Brother, you gave me too much."

"I can't let my sister's hard work go in vain. Yesterday, my sister must have been thirsty because of what happened to me. Why can't I buy a glass of water for my sister?" Yang Deng said with a cheerful smile, looking modest.

"Hi! That's right. I said you were a distant relative of ours, so the landlord agreed to rent the house." Liu's daughter-in-law said proudly.

"When can they vacate the house?" Yang Denghuan asked again.

"About two or three days." Liu's wife thought for a while and said.

"I'm going out in the next two days..." Yang Denghuan looked embarrassed.

The Liu family's daughter-in-law received so many benefits, her face seemed to be blooming with joy, and she said with a smile: "What's the matter? Don't worry, we are relatives anyway. When the time comes, I will take over the house first and tidy it up with you. I promise Come back and live in a new house!"

"I'm so sorry. How can I trouble you?" Yang Denghuan said politely, but did not refuse directly.

"Look at what you said, aren't we relatives?" Liu's wife said with a smile, staring at Yang Denghuan enthusiastically.

Yang Denghuan took out another wad of banknotes from his pocket and handed it over. Liu's wife looked at the banknotes eagerly, wiped her hands on her clothes and said, "How embarrassing, it has already cost you a lot."

"Sister, please don't be polite to me. Don't you have to spend money on shopping? Besides, we have become neighbors, so I will have to trouble you." Yang Deng said with a smile.

The Liu family's daughter-in-law quickly took the money with great embarrassment and said, "You're welcome, sister. I'll buy you some furniture if it's convenient."

"Thank you so much!" Yang Denghuan said happily.

"Aren't you going to take a look inside the house?" Liu's wife asked.

"We'll talk about it when I get back! I'm relieved that you're doing the work!" Yang Deng said with a smile.

"Come on! With just your words, it's worth it no matter how tired my sister is." Liu's wife said quickly.

"When the time comes to move here, I must treat you and the head of the family to dinner."

After Yang Denghuan finished speaking, he chatted with the Liu family's wife for a few more words, then turned and left.

Looking at Yang Denghuan's leaving figure, the Liu family's daughter-in-law was a little puzzled. This man looked like a rich man, so why did he insist on living in this courtyard?

After thinking about it, the Liu family's daughter-in-law shook her head in shame. No matter what he did, he was so generous and she didn't do anything. She got so many benefits for nothing, so there was nothing left to be dissatisfied about.

Besides, having such a rich neighbor is certainly not a bad thing. If you work harder and help him clean up, you might even get a lot of benefits!

At [-] o'clock at noon, Cao Youguang arrived at Yang Denghuan's downstairs on time and sounded the car horn.

Yang Denghuan agreed at the window, quickly went downstairs, walked to the roadside, opened the door and got in the car.

Cao Youguang glanced at Yang Denghuan, but without any special instructions, he frowned and said, "Why didn't you clean it up?"

"Why haven't you cleaned up? I've washed my face, brushed my teeth, and changed my clothes. How could I be asked to paint my eyebrows?" Yang Denghuan glanced at Cao Youguang and said.

Cao Youguang shook his head, ignored him, and started the car.

"Where is Lao Ai's house?" Yang Denghuan asked.

"You'll know when we get there!" Cao Youguang said angrily.

Dangku Alley.

Cao Youguang slowly stopped the car in front of a rather imposing courtyard with carved beams and painted columns.

Cao Youguang got out of the car, opened the trunk, took out a few small boxes, and said dissatisfiedly to Yang Denghuan, who was standing in front of the courtyard, looking up and down with interest, "Come here to carry things, you don't have any eyesight at all."

Yang Denghuan came over with a smile, carried several boxes with Cao Youguang, and walked up the steps.

Two young men in black Chinese tunic suits saw Yang Denghuan and his wife walking up the steps in the concierge. They came out and asked, "Who are you two looking for? What business do you have?"

"Cao Youguang of the Inspection Department has made an appointment with Ai Gaosen." Cao Youguang said with a hat.

"Wait a moment, everyone." The young man said politely, and then ran to the concierge.

"Did you see it? This is the Shenzhai compound! Not just anyone can enter if they want to!" Cao Youguang looked back at Yang Denghuan and said.

"Five steps. If this was in the Qing Dynasty, it would have been a Baylor Mansion." Yang Denghuan said with envy in his eyes without leaving the courtyard.

"Know the goods. This was indeed a Baylor Mansion before, but now it is the 'Changing King's Banner on the City Head', and the owners have changed several times. Before Ai Gao Shen moved in, this was the Chu House, the residence of Chu Yuqing, the director of the Military Law Department of the Fengjun Army. Now it will be changed to Ai Zhai." Cao Youguang said leisurely.

"Don't be envious, maybe it won't be long before this place becomes Cao's house." Yang Denghuan said in a low voice.

Cao Youguang was startled, glanced at no one coming out of the courtyard, and then said with lingering fear: "Don't talk nonsense! I don't have that big ambition."

Yang Denghuan smiled slightly, and the door of the courtyard opened. A middle-aged man wearing a long gown with a smile on his face came out, bowed and said, "I'm sorry to keep Cao Chu waiting for so long. Ai Gao asked you two to come in. Hall narrative.”

It was obviously not the first time for Cao Youguang to come to Ai's house. He recognized the middle-aged man as Ai Gaoshen's housekeeper Lu Fuxiang and greeted him with a smile: "We are all our own people. Just give the servants instructions. Why bother housekeeper Lu to come out in person?"

"This is... Officer Yang, right? I heard the lady mention it several times. He is indeed young, handsome, and talented." Butler Lu looked Yang Denghuan up and down, his attitude was very courteous and even flattering.

Young, handsome, and talented?What kind of tiger-wolf talk is this?
Yang Denghuan looked at Butler Lu's smiling face and felt something in his heart.
