Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 2) Chapter 49.6: The Bitter Heroine (32)
Miss Liu is a Guodang commissioner who is ordered to approach Mr. Wang, a traitor to the country, in order to obtain intelligence from him. However, this originally determined spy was eventually blinded by love.
She had worked so hard to obtain the information, but she did not give it to her superior. She was afraid that handing over the information would put her Mr. Wang in danger. She had been wavering between love and loyalty, so she came up with such a brilliant idea.
She handed the key of the safe to someone casually, and then hid the information of the safe in a secret compartment at home. The Shao family were all ordinary people, so she never thought that the information in the blue bricks would be known by the Shao family, and the person who could find it must be her companion.
But one would have thought that she would leave the key with a little kid like Aliang.
Although Miss Liu said in the letter that she would leave the outcome to fate, in fact, the balance in her heart had already tilted towards her lover.
Such destiny was romantic for her love, but a disaster for her comrades.
Shao Yu had no intention of judging Miss Liu’s behavior, and he completely understood where Miss Liu’s fate would lie. But even though the Shao family owed Miss Liu a favor, Shao Yu still had to pass on this document.
As for Miss Liu, all Shao Yu could do was to ask Aliang to remind her to leave Shanghai as soon as possible the next time they saw each other, but he also understood that Aliang would most likely not see Miss Liu again in the theater.
Shao Yu put the letter away, then stuffed the document back into the safe. After locking it, he walked out of the bank as if nothing had happened.
At night, Shao Yu greeted his family and went out. I came back in less than ten minutes. His family didn’t know what he went out for and didn’t ask any questions.
In the evening, Shao Yu greeted his family and went out, but returned in about ten minutes.
The next morning, Shao Yu took his three granddaughters to the park for a walk again. Not long after he sat down, he saw the young man in the windbreaker strolling towards him.
The next morning, Shao Yu took his three granddaughters to the park for a walk..
It was the old scenario of the key falling again. The young man rummaged through the ground and this time found two things. He was stunned at first, but quickly regained his composure and stuffed all the things into his pocket.
Everything was stuffed in his pockets.
After the young man returned to his residence, he first opened the message and translated it from the code book. His brows slightly frowned, and soon he opened the thing wrapped in brown paper.
Inside was a note and a key.
“Fenghui Bank 507…” The young man read it out, and then looked at the word “Lu” in the signature, and his brows suddenly frowned.
His first thought was not to doubt the contents of the note, but to worry that the organization’s contact point had been exposed. His mind was full of thoughts about reporting the matter to his superiors.
But now that Shanghai was occupied by the Japanese, it was difficult to communicate with his superiors, and he was also very curious about the things in the bank safe. For a moment, he was very conflicted .
Shao Yu had no idea of this man’s struggle and had already pushed the children back home.
After teaching the mother and daughter in the evening, Shao Yingniang casually said, “Opening a Western restaurant is really profitable. ”
Shao Yu paused after hearing this and asked, “Do you know how much money the restaurant makes every day?”
Shao Yingniang reported it casually, although it was her estimate.
It was a little overpriced, but it didn’t seem to be much different from the current bill. She also quoted the cost of the ingredients, obviously knowing a lot about these things.
Shao Yu was shocked and thought to himself how could Yingniang know so much when she had only been working for a few days.
Shao Yingniang seemed to be born with a keen sense of numbers. She even calculated how much money the restaurant could earn in a month after deducting the costs.
“Yingniang was born to be an abacus user.” Shao Yu sighed and asked, “Can you use an abacus?”
Shao Yingniang smiled sheepishly and said, “I saw Wang Jizong using the abacus at Wang’s house. I learned it after watching it a few times.”
Wang Jizong, Shao Yu suddenly felt that this name was very distant.
Shao Yu took out an abacus and asked a question. Shao Yingniang quickly worked out the correct answer.
Shao Yingniang added: “Currently, I think some of the food in the restaurant should be promoted.”
“Why do you say that?” Shao Yu asked.
Shao Yingniang said: “Although the restaurant business is good, there is always a lot of food left over every day, and these foods cannot be sold the next day. The restaurant manager always sells them to employees at a discount.”
“But even with the discount, not every employee can afford it, so there will still be a lot left over in the end.”
Shao Yu immediately asked: “Then how do you think it should be solved?”
Shao Yingniang said: “My idea is that the amount that employees can buy is limited after all, so it is better to sell it to ordinary people at a discount.”
Shao Yingniang added: “My idea is quite ridiculous, Dad, please don’t laugh at me.”
Before Shao Yu could say anything, Liu Cuifen on the side said, “What’s so funny about this? I just think your idea is very good.”
“Mom, I was just joking. Don’t take it seriously.” Shao Yingniang was a little shy when she was praised.
Liu Cuifen was much bolder than her daughter and said, ” I don’t think that restaurant manager is as smart as you.”
Shao Yu looked at the mother and daughter and thought to himself that one had ideas but lacked the courage to execute them, while the other had now become a fool and a daredevil due to her swelled self-confidence; they were quite a match.
