“Buying a car, you are going to Hong Kong, buying a car now, isn’t it a bit urgent?” Su Moer was a bit incomprehensible.

“If money is not used, it will depreciate in value, and you need a car now.” Cheng Mo said, “In the future, when you commute to work, you can’t always let Uncle Hu transport you, don’t forget that you have an identity.”

Su Mu’er was solemn.

If there was someone to transport her to and from work, then her freedom would be restricted, then once there was a mission, there would be no way to carry it out.

“I bought a car, so you are free to drive to and from work, this is completely different, once I leave, the old Miao side will have to go often, he has no big problem copying and receiving telegrams, but translating the telegrams will not work, this is your job …….”

Also, Su Moer wants to grow up quickly, it has to be the case that he is not there, with him there, her sense of crisis is missing a part of her, anything he will think about it, she doesn’t have to think about anything, just do as instructed.

This was good, but it was not good for personal growth, not just for Su Moer, it was the same for Old Wu and the rest of them.

Give them a time and space to grow independently.

They are a group, but in the future, they are also going to have the ability to accomplish tasks independently, it is not possible to say what to do if he sacrifices one day. “If you buy a car, do you have enough money? Not enough, I still have some here.” Su Moer knew that Cheng Mo had put most of the money he earned back into it.

“Enough, it’s best to change your money into US dollars and save it for our future needs.” Cheng Mo gave a reminder.

“Good.”

Shanghai still had a lot of cars, the big car dealerships all had existing cars for sale, brand new, after all, it was the most prosperous metropolis in the Far East.

The cars of this era are all relatively single-function, there are only a few family car brands that sell well in the market, France’s Citroen, America’s Ford and Cadillac, Germany’s Mercedes-Benz ……

In the end, Cheng Mo and Su Moer picked a Ford four-door sedan together, spending nearly two thousand five hundred dollars.

It was so expensive because it was a new car, if it was used, it would have been much cheaper.

After the arrival of the new car, you also need to get a license plate, for the tax certificate, usually mainly in the two concessions to drive, so, temporarily run the two concessions pass ……

These miscellaneous spent another nearly five hundred French dollars.

So, owning a car, that is definitely not an ordinary family can afford, many rich people would rather choose to rent a car at the car dealership to use.

Because they don’t have to pay so much at once, there is more worry, they don’t have to worry about anything.

After the car arrived, Cheng Mo drove Su Moer to the Bund and then went to the Red House on Xiafei Road for a big meal.

In the end, he drove the car directly to the Su Mansion.

The place he rented didn’t have a place to put the car, Su Mansion at least has a bigger yard, it’s not a problem to put one more car.

Cheng Mo will go to Hong Kong in a few days, the car sooner or later to be placed in Su Moer side, she drove to and from work is also convenient.

Cheng Mo remembered that when the two of them made a bet, the old man said that he would marry a house.

He has already bought the car.

Just waiting for the house! Seeing the brand new Ford car parked in his own yard, Su Shouan’s eyes are green, this kid is clearly giving himself eye candy.

After dinner, Su Shouan called Cheng Mo upstairs to his study, and the two of them sat down in a fairly cordial atmosphere.

“Little Cheng ah, how long will it take you to go to Hong Kong this time?”

“It says three months, but the exact time, I’m not sure, I have to listen to the arrangements from above.” Cheng Mo explained.

“Three months, the time is not too long, that uncle please you one thing, our family is in the insurance business, sooner or later this family business is going to be handed over to Ming Hao, shouldn’t you as a brother-in-law help him?” Su Shouan said.

“You say?”

“I want to open a branch in Hong Kong, you just happen to go to Hong Kong, can you help me examine the market there first?”

“This I don’t know the content of this special training, if it’s closed training, then I might not have a chance, but if it’s not closed training, it’s possible to piggyback on it.” Cheng Mo saw it at a glance and asked, “Do Uncle and Auntie have plans to move to Hong Kong?”

“Currently just considering it, how do you know?” Su Shouan was a bit surprised, this was something that he had only talked about privately with Jiang Liyao, and had never mentioned it to anyone.

“Right now, there are a lot of industrialists leaving Shanghai and going to Hong Kong for development, I just made a casual guess.” Cheng Mo said, “If Uncle and Auntie are motivated by the idea of avoiding trouble, then don’t go to Hong Kong and go directly to the US.”

“The United States is too far away, our relatives and friends are all here, when people get old, they are even more nostalgic for their homeland, what’s more, we Chinese are concerned about going back to our roots, Hong Kong is close by, we can still come back anytime.” Su Shouan, as a businessman, especially in the insurance business, is still quite sensitive to the current situation and has his own sense of touch.

“Japan’s ambition is too big, their goal is the whole of Asia, sooner or later, they will turn their back on the British, when that time comes, Hong Kong will not be safe, besides, the climate over there is humid and stuffy, the two old men may not be able to adapt.” Cheng Mo said.

What he said is true, three years later, Japan will send troops to occupy Hong Kong, by then, what is the difference between Hong Kong and Shanghai?

“This, I reconsider to consider ……,” Su Shouan also hesitated, after all, living in Shanghai for nearly twenty years, every aspect is accustomed to, and he is not willing to leave, more than fifty years old, but also did not have the original impulse and vigor. “Uncle, there is nothing, I will go back first, I have to go to work early tomorrow morning.” Cheng Mo got up and said.

“Well, good, I won’t see you off.”

Su Moer sent out.

“Come inside Old Miao’s store tomorrow night after work, there are some things I have to explain before I leave, and you also formally meet with the big guys.” Cheng Mo gave a whispered command.

“Okay, I’ll be there.” Su Mo Er nodded.

At dusk the next day, the “Dark Flame” team members came to the Old Miao Grocery Store one after another, Cheng Mo and Su Moer came a little later because they got off work at a later time.

For the first time, the seven members of the “Dark Flame” team had gathered together.

“This is seventh sister Jiang Yun, code name: Painted Eyebrows, come on, Little Yun, say hello to everyone.” Cheng Mo introduced.

Within the “Dark Flame” team, Su Moer’s pseudonym of “Jiang Yun” was also decided by Cheng Mo from the beginning.

Su Moer’s identity was hidden as much as possible, which was also a kind of protection.

“Hello everyone, my name is Jiang Yun, please take care of me in the future.” Su Mo’er fell into a generous cry.

“Old Miao, we’ve met.”

“Second, Wu Miao, code name: Fish Intestine, hello seventh sister.” Wu Jianfeng followed closely behind and introduced himself.

Then Old Three, Cheng Mo, Old Four, Kuizi, and Old Five, Da Chun, all introduced themselves one by one, and were considered to be formally acquainted.

“I’m going to temporarily leave Shanghai for a period of time, the time may be about three months, during this period of time that I’m leaving, the ‘Dark Flame’ team will mainly focus on collecting relevant intelligence, and will not carry out any sanctioned as well as destructive type of tasks. During this period of time, the ‘Dark Flame’ team into hibernation standby state, the main work of everyone is to do their own work, I’m not in this period of time, by the third brother temporarily acting as the head of the team, and the liaison with the peak of the work is responsible for the seventh sister, Miao is responsible for the traffic, the Shanghai Special Administrative Region, if there is a need to assist in any task, you can assist, but you must take their own safety first, we are independent, we are not the only people in Shanghai. their own safety first, we are a group that operates independently, it is possible to refuse them, and from now on, we have to reduce our contact with the Shanghai Special Administrative Region.” Cheng Mo solemnly explained the next step.

Everyone nodded in response.

“Third Brother, I suggest you change your job, your work at the Tram Factory is known to someone on the side of the Shanghai Special Zone.” Cheng Mo said, “During this period of time, the hoeing and sanctioning missions in the Shanghai Special Administrative Region have been ongoing, they have arrested quite a few people, you have the most contacts with the Shanghai Special Administrative Region, and you know a lot of people, so you have to save for a rainy day, change your job and your identity.”

“Well, okay, I’ll resign in a couple days and look for a new job.” Shen Mo nodded.

“Fourth brother, you are in the Jing’an Temple’s arrest room, that side is close to the west of Shanghai, I know that casinos and smoking houses are rampant over there, your task is to secretly investigate the forces and people behind the opening of these establishments, useful in the future.”

“Sixth brother, recently I found out that there is a force developing rapidly in Shanghai West, called what is called the Zodiac Society, it has collected a lot of jianghu roamers, vandalizing, robbing and burning, doing no evil, and it has already spread to the security within the Concession.” Quizi said.

“Then go and find out what these people are doing and what forces are behind them.” Cheng Mo said, “Of course, first of all, we have to pay attention to security.”

“Two days ago, our car dealership was also harassed, it was this group of people, very arrogant.” Da Chun also chimed in.

“They’re all demons and monsters, they won’t be able to jump around for a few days.”

“I’ve heard that since the New Year’s Eve, the Lone Army Camp’s life has become more and more difficult, not only is their freedom restricted, even their supplies are often cut off, the brothers in the camp are hungry and full, and there are also fights that happen from time to time.” Wu Jianfeng said.

“This I know, there are indeed some people who are secretly messing around, stirring up dissatisfaction and antagonism within the battalion, it really isn’t too good to solve this matter, the only way to do so is to report the situation to the top, so that the top can solve this matter through the diplomatic level.” Cheng Mo said, he certainly knew the situation of the Lone Army Battalion, and there was no better way other than to secretly fund it.

Everyone also knew that there were many things that manpower couldn’t do, or their power was limited and they couldn’t do it at all, they could come out, or because of Cheng Mo.

“Everyone still has something to say, now say it.” Cheng Mo said, “We’ll solve it together.”

“Some time ago, someone came to the car dealership to investigate the car rental, saying it was related to the theft case, our manager received it and checked in the office for more than two hours before leaving.” Da Chun hesitated and spoke.

“What kind of people came over to investigate?”

“I don’t know, the manager refused to say, I guess it was a gag order.” Da Chun said.

“The three missions we did, all of them had Big Spring rent a car.” Wu Jianfeng said.

“But the car I rented wasn’t from my dealership, it was from a few other dealerships, and I used a different alias.” Da Chun said.

“Since the person investigating the car rental has been to Da Chun’s car dealership, he is bound to go to other car dealerships as well, so we still need to be careful… Da Chun, those several alias identities of yours, you can’t use them again in the future.” Cheng Mo gave a reminder.

“Understood.”
