The missile "DF-5" was an intercontinental ballistic missile. It was mainly used to attack important strategic nuclear forces on enemy territory. So far, only the United States and Soviet Union had mastered this technology.
China was the third country to announce that it had mastered ICBM technology.
The official range of the "DF-5" was 12000 km. This distance was enough to pose a strong strategic threat to the United States.
The country originally planned to display the "DF-5" at the National Day Parade. However, before it was displayed, overseas news was published.
The news said that some eastern countries were bluffing and falsifying the data. They ridiculed those countries and said that this kind of behavior was ridiculous.
Although the news did not specify which country it was, nor did it mention the name of the "DF-5", from the recent international military plans and various trends, this article was targeted at China.
After the news came out, the embassy immediately translated the news into Chinese and sent it back to China. After the Ministry of National Security read the document, they immediately became suspicious.
The actual range of the "DF-5" was indeed not 12000 km and could not pose a strategic threat to the United States. However, due to the military tension in this era, the United States and Soviet Union were fighting for world supremacy, and the United States was on guard against and suppressing China. The country exaggerated the actual range data out of various considerations.
In fact, every country had done something like this before. However, before they knew the actual data of the other party, no country would openly ridicule them like this.
Normally, when the United States discovered that China had developed a missile that threatened their security, their first reaction would be worry or shock. Even if they raised doubts, they would beat around the bush.
However, now that they were openly ridiculing them, there was only one possibility -
The missile's data was leaked. There was a spy in the military system!
The country's leaders immediately issued orders to quickly find the spy and the person involved in the leak. They must eliminate all resistance!
When something like this happened, there would naturally be no uproar. There would also be no investigation with great fanfare. This was to avoid alerting the enemy and allowing the spy to prepare in advance to escape.
Everything was done in secret.
Tong Xuelu actually did not know about the leak, nor did she know that there was a spy. However, her qualification to attend the Spring Trade Fair was suddenly revoked.
The reason was that the quality of the medicinal wine was not up to standard.
Her first reaction was that it was impossible. She immediately went to the factory to check.
When the person in charge of the factory heard that there was a problem with the product, he was very worried, but he promised that everything was done according to the procedures.
The person in charge of the factory was Su Yueshen's friend. After working with him for a while, Tong Xuelu found him to be an honest, cautious, and reliable person. Tong Xuelu didn't want to guess that he would tamper with the medicinal wine.
However, everything depended on the facts. Since they said that there was a problem with the medicinal wine, they would investigate it thoroughly.
She personally checked every step of the process from the purchase of the medicinal wine and the materials to the final product. In the end, she didn't find any problems.
She even drank some medicinal wine herself, so she didn't feel any discomfort.
Moreover, although the Administration for Industry and Commerce said that there was a problem with her medicinal wine, they did not close down her company. Her medicinal wine could still be sold and operated.
This was a little strange.
Tong Xuelu stayed in the factory for two days. After confirming that there was no problem with the product, he felt that something was amiss. Hence, he took the car back home and told his two grandfathers about it.
Old Mr. Wen and Commander Xiao were experienced and knowledgeable. Hence, they immediately sensed that something was wrong.
Old Mr. Wen frowned and said, "I'm afraid that some people don't know how to be human. They're doing things that harm the country and the people. Don't bother about this and don't ask about it. Just cooperate with the higher-ups."
It was rare for Commander Xiao to agree with Old Mr. Wen. He nodded and said, "The stubborn old man is right this time. Just pretend that you don't know anything and do what you have to do. However, if anyone asks about you, you have to be careful. Don't be careless."
Seeing how serious his two grandfathers were, Tong Xuelu immediately guessed that they were spies.
If that was the case, things were indeed serious.
However, it was indeed not something she could get involved in. Just like what his two grandfathers said, she could only pretend that she didn't know anything and act carefully.
However, the Spring Festival Fair had been canceled and the employees in the company were all speculating.
As soon as Tong Xuelu returned to the office, the employees surrounded him and started asking him questions.
"Chairman Tong, is our medicinal wine going to be closed down?"
"Will our company still be able to continue operating?"
"Is someone deliberately targeting our company? Could it be that the factory that filed the lawsuit is maliciously taking revenge?"
Tong Xuelu glanced at everyone present and said calmly, "Everyone, please calm down. I've already submitted the disqualification for the Spring Festival Fair according to the procedures. There are no problems with our products, so the company definitely won't be closed down. Everyone, please have confidence in that."
"As for whether or not someone is taking revenge, we don't have to guess. What we have to do now is to improve the quality and service of our products so that no one can find fault with us. Since we can't attend the Spring Festival Fair, I'd like to use this period of time to organize some international trade related training for everyone. Those who would like to sign up, please do so at Deputy Manager Lin's place."
Although not attending the Spring Festival Fair would result in a loss of income, it was not a big problem for Tong Xuelu.
What she had to do now was to cooperate with the country's arrangements and appease the people so as not to cause trouble for the country.
Indeed, after hearing Tong Xuelu's words, everyone felt much more relieved and their attention was immediately diverted.
"I want to sign up! I've always wanted to learn about international trade, but I didn't know where to start. There are very few books on this subject. "
"Me too. I asked my relatives for books on this subject, but I can't understand them. It's like reading a book from heaven."
"Thank you, Chairman Tong. We will train and learn well."
"Thank you, Chairman Tong!"
Everyone was extremely excited and expressed their heartfelt gratitude to Tong Xuelu. At the same time, they felt a stronger sense of belonging to the company.
Ever since the company started to expand into foreign markets, the salaries of the employees in charge of foreign trade had increased. Especially after the Autumn Festival Fair, some people's commission had exceeded the total annual salary of the state-owned enterprises. This made others envious.
However, not everyone could do foreign trade work. First, they had to know English and the relevant knowledge. Now that the company was willing to train them, at least they had pointed out a path for them. They would know how to work hard in the future.
Seeing that everyone's attention was diverted, Tong Xuelu heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she called Deng Hong into her office.
"Manager Deng, I'll have to trouble you to keep an eye on the company. If anyone comes to ask about it, you have to report to me immediately."
Deng Hong was stunned for a moment. Then, he asked carefully, "Chairman Tong, is there a problem?"
Tong Xuelu looked at him and said, "You just have to do as I say. Don't ask about it or panic. Just do everything as usual."
Deng Hong was not a hothead who had just entered society, especially after ten years. He understood on the spot. "I understand. I will manage the company well!"
"Thank you for your hard work."
"This is what I should do. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Tong Xuelu nodded. Deng Hong turned around and left the office, closing the door behind him.
Tong Xuelu was very satisfied with Deng Hong as a manager.
Deng Hong was also very satisfied with the company.
Since last year, Tong Xuelu had given him a 3% share dividend. Now, his income had exceeded many of the people around him.
The people who used to laugh at him for working for a woman now turned around and envied him.
Two days later, the people from the Administration for Industry and Commerce came to investigate the company's accounts. However, because Tong Xuelu had previously informed them and made a promise, the employees did not panic this time.
Although some people were still feeling uneasy, they gradually relaxed after seeing that the company was operating as usual two days later.
**
Coincidentally, Jiang Baihui and Qian Caixin's companies were also investigated.
The two of them suddenly panicked. However, after the investigation, the Administration for Industry and Commerce did not impose any punishment or restrictions on them.
However, Qian Caixin thought about it and still felt uneasy. "Why don't you go to Tong Xuelu's side and ask if she has been investigated?"
Jiang Baihui's face turned pale. "Could it be that we were discovered? I'm not going. If you want to go, you go! "
Qian Caixin glanced at her. "Calm down. If we were discovered, would you and I still be standing here? If I go to Tong Xuelu's company, wouldn't I be alerting the enemy? "
Jiang Baihui's hand, which was holding the enamel jar, trembled. "Then what should we do now? I can't help but feel uneasy. If we're really discovered, will we be shot? "
Qian Caixin pulled her hard and scolded in a low voice, "Do you want to die? Why don't you take a look at where we are? If someone heard this, you and I would be dead!"
Jiang Baihui was pulled by her and bumped into the cabinet next to her. She gasped in pain. "I'm scared too. Caixin, I quit. From today onwards, we won't provide any information!"
Qian Caixin glanced outside. When she saw that no one was around, she turned around and glanced at Jiang Baihui. "Up to you. If you're willing to give up such a good opportunity to make money, I won't force you. But don't regret it later!"
As she spoke, she took out something wrapped in newspaper from the drawer and opened it. "This is your reward for this time."
Inside the newspaper were ten small yellow croakers!!!
Jiang Baihui stared at the golden yellow croakers with her eyes wide open.
One small yellow croaker was about 31 grams. Ten of them were about 300 yuan. The current gold price was 68 yuan per gram. Based on this calculation, the price of these ten small yellow croakers was more than 20,000 yuan!
However, these small yellow croakers had collectible value. If they could find a suitable buyer, they might be able to sell them for several times more!
Jiang Baihui's heart raced. She stared straight at the small yellow croakers and swallowed her saliva. "These ... are all mine?"
Qian Caixin stuffed the small yellow croakers into her arms. "Of course. I've told you before that the reward won't be less than five figures. The information you provided this time was very good. My friend is very happy, so the extra money is your reward!"
Jiang Baihui hugged the small yellow croakers in her arms. Her heart was beating so fast that it almost couldn't handle it. "But gold isn't easy to find. It won't be good if someone finds out, right?"
Qian Caixin said, "Gold is easy to find. If I give you 20,000 yuan, how are you going to bring it back? If you can't find someone to exchange it with, I'll introduce you to someone else. "
Jiang Baihui nodded. She thought that using paper money would attract too much attention.
Right now, the biggest banknote was ten yuan. Twenty thousand yuan was a huge pile of banknotes!
Qian Caixin's lips curled. "Are you still going to quit?"
Jiang Baihui hugged the small yellow croakers in her arms and didn't say anything.
Money came too easily. She just had to move her mouth and she could earn money that others couldn't earn in their lifetime. No one could resist such a temptation.
But ...
"Are you sure they won't trace it back to us?"
Qian Caixin said, "That's why I asked you to ask Tong Xuelu. I'll also ask around at other companies. If there's a problem, we'll be able to make corresponding countermeasures."
Jiang Baihui looked at her, then looked down at the small yellow croakers in her arms.
After a while, she nodded as if she had made a big decision. "Okay, I'll ask Xuelv tomorrow."
Qian Caixin reminded her, "Be careful when you speak. Don't let the cat out of the bag."
"I know."
That night, Jiang Baihui brought the small yellow croakers home and found a place to hide them.
The next day, she carried the child to Tong Xuelu's company to look for her.
Seeing Jiang Baihui bring the child over, Tong Xuelu was stunned. "Why are you here? Don't you have to go to work today? "
Jiang Baihui frowned and said, "Aiguo has a rash. My mother-in-law isn't feeling well today, so I brought him to the hospital alone. I also came over to ask you for advice."
Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi's son was called Liang Aiguo. Every time Tong Xuelu heard this name, she was speechless.
In the 50s and 60s, many people named their children Aiguo, Aiguo, Aiguo, etc. These were the characteristics of that era. But now, very few people named their children that way.
Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi named their son to thank the country for sending Liang Tianyi to study abroad. It was a good idea, but the name wasn't very fashionable.
Although she complained, Tong Xuelu still shared her parenting experience with her. "The baby's sweat glands aren't developed. Don't wear too thick clothes. It's easy to get a rash."
"Also, pay attention to the cleanliness of your skin. If you pee or poop, quickly change and wipe it clean. Also, try to choose soft cotton fabrics."
Jiang Baihui wrote down all these and smiled brightly. "It's all thanks to you. It's my first time being a mother. I don't know anything, and I'm so busy with the company. It's really hard."
Tong Xuelu: "It's all like this. That's why I say that mothers are great."
Jiang Baihui felt the same way. Then, she changed the topic to the company. "Recently, the company's affairs have really tired us out. I don't know what happened, but the people from the Industry and Commerce Bureau suddenly came and said that there was a problem with our products. We had to give them all kinds of certificates. We were so busy that we didn't even have time to eat."
Tong Xuelu glanced at her and said calmly, "The Industry and Commerce Bureau also recently came to investigate our company's medicinal wine. They even checked the accounts."
Jiang Baihui showed a very shocked expression. "What's going on? I thought they only investigated our company. Why did they also want to investigate your company? Don't they know that your grandfather is a commander? "
Tong Xuelu frowned slightly. "The company was opened under my name. It has nothing to do with my grandfather or Ru Gui's grandfather. It's normal for the Industry and Commerce Bureau to investigate."
"The country started cracking down two years ago. In the past two years, the economy has developed very quickly. However, many people set up shell companies and then speculated or made some inferior products. If the economy wants to develop well, the country will definitely crack down on these criminal activities. We are all legitimate companies. We just need to cooperate with the investigation."
Jiang Baihui didn't notice the displeasure in her tone. She widened her eyes and continued to ask, "So the Industry and Commerce Bureau is cracking down on speculations? Other companies have also been checked, right? "
Tong Xuelu nodded. "That's right. As far as I know, many of the companies I know have already been investigated. Everyone is fine."
Jiang Baihui breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. "That's good. Our company is fine too. I thought that someone was targeting our company. Now it seems that we were overthinking."
Tong Xuelu smiled and didn't say anything.
Jiang Baihui sat for a while and then went back with her son.
Tong Xuelu sent her to the door. Looking at her back, she frowned.
Before this, she didn't suspect Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi because the crime of being a spy was too serious. As long as they were involved, they might even lose their lives.
Therefore, without any evidence, she would never suspect the people around her, especially her friends.
However, this time, national secrets were leaked. She had to re-evaluate Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi.
After witnessing the prosperity of foreign countries, very few people could still maintain their original hearts. The two of them gave up the generous remuneration of foreign companies and returned to China to start from scratch. Would they feel unreconciled?
Tong Xuelu thought of Jiang Baihui's jealous expression and how she suddenly became nice to her. The ominous feeling in her heart grew stronger.
If there was something wrong with the couple, would there be something wrong with Qian Caixin too?
"Chairman Tong, what are you looking at?"
The receptionist saw her standing at the door for a long time and couldn't help but walk over and ask curiously.
Tong Xuelu came back to her senses. She shook her head and smiled faintly. "Nothing. I just feel that the economy is getting better and better. The people's lives are getting better and better. This is all due to the country and the Party."
The receptionist didn't understand why the boss suddenly said such a thing, but she was right.
"Yes. I remember when I was young, I couldn't even afford to eat candy. Now, I can eat candy every day. Everyone's lives are indeed getting better and better!"
Tong Xuelu smiled and turned to walk back to the office.
She didn't plan to do anything. This kind of thing wasn't something a commoner like her could interfere with.
If there was something wrong with Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi, the National Security Agency would find out sooner or later. They were much more professional than her.
However, from the bottom of her heart, she hoped that it wasn't the couple.
**
Jiang Baihui came out of Tong Xuelu's office. She didn't go home immediately. Instead, she went back to her company.
"How is it? Is there any clue from Tong Xuelu's side? "
Qian Caixin saw Jiang Baihui and immediately closed the office door and asked in a low voice.
Jiang Baihui put her son on the sofa and stretched her sore hands. "There's no problem. Her side has also been investigated and checked. She can't even go to the Canton Trade Fair!"
Qian Caixin paused and widened his eyes. "Really? Tong Xuelu really can't go to the Canton Trade Fair? "
Jiang Baihui smiled and nodded. "Of course it's true. When I went to the bathroom, I asked her staff about it. She didn't lie to me. She also said that many companies she knew were also investigated. Therefore, it should be a routine inspection and not a suspicion on us."
Qian Caixin's heart finally relaxed. "Then I'm relieved."
In fact, when the Bureau of Industry and Commerce came, she was ready to escape. Everything at home was packed.
Once there was any sign of trouble, she would immediately leave the company and Jiang Baihui and fly abroad.
Now that she knew that everything was fine, she could continue to stay.
In fact, she wasn't willing to give up such a good opportunity to make money. Jiang Baihui got ten small yellow croakers this time, but she got twenty small yellow croakers!
In addition, she had provided a lot of information to foreign countries and Wanwan. Now, her account abroad had almost 300,000 yuan!
300,000 yuan was a lot in China. It wouldn't be a problem for her to lie down for the rest of her life. However, it was still a little less abroad. Therefore, she wanted to make more money.
Just as Jiang Baihui and Qian Caixin relaxed their vigilance, Jiang Baihui's mother-in-law, Mother Liang, was cleaning the house.
Suddenly, the cat next door ran into the house with a piece of dried salted fish in its mouth. Mother Liang was shocked.
She came back to her senses and immediately picked up a broom to chase the cat away.
The cat circled around the room and then hid under the bed, making Mother Liang very angry.
Mother Liang went outside and took a bamboo pole. She poked the bottom of the bed. The cat screamed a few times and ran away, leaving the dried salted fish under the bed.
The smell of dried salted fish was unpleasant. It was similar to a dead rat. Mother Liang used a bamboo pole to poke inside, trying to get the dried salted fish out. However, she accidentally poked the wall and the wall made a "dong dong" sound.
Mother Liang suddenly felt that something was wrong. Why did the wall seem to be empty?
If it was empty, would it have been eaten up by termites? If that was the case, it wouldn't be safe.
Mother Liang didn't care about the dried salted fish. She got up and used all her strength to move the bed. In order to move the bed, she almost broke her old waist.
However, for the safety of her son and grandson, she ignored the pain in her waist and walked over to knock on the wall.
It really was empty!
She turned around and found a hammer. She hammered a hole in the wall. There was a metal box inside.
Her heart suddenly thundered. She stood up and closed the door. Then, she turned around and took out the metal box.
There was a small lock on the metal box. However, this wasn't a problem for Mother Liang. Her father used to be a locksmith and taught her to open all kinds of locks.
She went to the kitchen and took a piece of wire. She fiddled with the lock a few times. The lock opened with a "ka ka" sound.
Inside, there was a piece of flannel wrapped in a pile of things.
Mother Liang carefully unwrapped the flannel. Then, her eyes widened.
What did she see?
She saw ten small yellow croakers!!!
Mother Liang's heart raced. She was so happy that her mouth almost reached her ears. This was a gift from God. She didn't expect there to be so much gold hidden in the wall.
The previous owner must have been afraid of being investigated, so they hid it in the wall.
No!
Mother Liang's movements suddenly stopped. She took out the flannel and looked around. Then, her face darkened.
This piece of cloth belonged to her daughter-in-law. It was cut from the clothes Jiang Baihui bought overseas!
The cement on the wall was also newly built. It hadn't dried yet!
In order to confirm her guess, she stood up and ran to the wardrobe to look for Jiang Baihui's clothes. Sure enough, she found the clothes that had been picked up.
Mother Liang's face darkened even more. It was so cold that it could drip water.
So, this gold was hidden by Jiang Baihui. But where did she get so many small yellow croakers?
Could it be that her company made money and she was afraid that her son and mother would find out, so she secretly hid it?
Thinking about it, that must be the case!
Mother Liang cursed the little b * tch in her heart. Then, she stuffed the small yellow croakers into her pocket, locked the metal box, and put it back in.
Then, she watered the cement and took out the dried salted fish. After cleaning, she pushed the bed back.
After doing all this, Mother Liang was so tired that her waist almost broke. However, she was very happy and proud.
Jiang Baihui dared to hide the small yellow croakers without permission. Then, she would secretly take them away and not leave a single one for her!
Let's see how she will cry when she finds out!
These small yellow croakers now belonged to her and her son. Her daughter-in-law had a different surname. She was unreliable!
When Jiang Baihui returned home, it was already late. She came back and looked at the position of the bed. However, she didn't think much of it.
She wouldn't move the bed easily even when she was cleaning. She was confident that no one would find out that she hid the small yellow croakers on the wall beside the bed.
She found the hole in the wall earlier. Even Liang Tianyi didn't know about it.
She didn't want to hide it from Liang Tianyi. She wanted to hide it from her mother-in-law.
Ever since she returned to China, her mother-in-law had been telling her what to do with their lives. She thought of herself as Empress Dowager Cixi, which made her very annoyed.
Therefore, she didn't plan to let her mother-in-law know about the money. When they had enough money, they would go abroad as a family of three without this old woman!
**
Three days later.
On the way home from the company, Jiang Baihui passed by an alley. Suddenly, a few men ran out from the alley and covered her mouth.
Jiang Baihui was scared out of her wits. She struggled with all her might, but the men held her down tightly.
Soon, a car drove over. They stuffed Jiang Baihui into the car and drove away.
All of this happened within a minute. Plus, it was very late. No one noticed that something was wrong.
Jiang Baihui was so scared that her face turned pale. She wanted to ask who these people were, but they taped her mouth. She couldn't make a sound.
After driving for half an hour, the car stopped at a large gate. She looked out of the car window. The next moment, the color on her face seemed to have been sucked away. She was as white as a sheet of paper.
The National Security Agency!!!
She had thought that gangsters or criminal organizations wanted to kidnap her and extort money from her because of her good business with Qian Caixin.
She didn't expect them to be from the National Security Agency!
She was dead. What they did must have been discovered!
How was being a spy punished? It seemed like ... she would be shot to death!
Jiang Baihui's strength seemed to have been sucked out of her body. She was dragged out of the car and brought to the interrogation room.
There were several tall men in the interrogation room. There were also many people guarding outside. There was no way for a weak woman like her to break through the layers of checkpoints.
Jiang Baihui sat on the chair like a dead fish. Her teeth were chattering.
One of the middle-aged men in black shouted coldly, "Jiang Baihui, you leaked state secrets. Do you know that you will be shot to death?"
Jiang Baihui was so scared that her heart trembled. She almost peed her pants.
However, she didn't know where the courage came from. She suddenly sat up straight and shook her head. "I know, but I didn't do it. Don't accuse a good person!"
"Accuse a good person?" Deputy Director Zheng looked at her coldly. "Then explain, where did you get these small yellow croakers?"
Deputy Director Zheng pushed the box containing the small yellow croakers in front of her.
When Jiang Baihui saw the small yellow croakers, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets. However, she still refused to admit it. "I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, I didn't do anything to betray the country!"
"Your mother-in-law took this from the wall next to your big bed. The flannelette wrapped on it was cut from the clothes you bought overseas. Do you still want to quibble?"
Physical evidence was presented one by one, but Jiang Baihui refused to admit it.
At the same time, Liang Tianyi was also detained at the base.
Like Jiang Baihui, he refused to admit that he had done anything to betray the country.
However, unlike Jiang Baihui, he was very calm. "I'm just an ordinary researcher. The DF-5 was a project that started ten years ago. After returning to China, I didn't participate in this project. How could I have leaked the secret?"
"Then how do you explain why your mother suddenly had ten small yellow croakers? According to your mother, these small yellow croakers were hidden by your wife, Jiang Baihui?"
"I don't know. I spend most of my time at the base. I don't know what happened at home."
Liang Tianyi's mind was meticulous. His logic was logical, and there were no flaws at all.
Moreover, as he said, he wasn't the core developer of the DF-5 missile. He didn't have top-secret information.
This meant that either he didn't leak it, or there was someone above him.
The investigation team of the National Security Agency unanimously believed that it was the latter. However, Liang Tianyi and Jiang Baihui refused to admit it. They didn't have any other evidence, so there was no way to convict them.
More importantly, if the stalemate continued, the spies who were in contact with them would find out that they were missing. They would definitely run away.
The investigation team had already investigated Jiang Baihui's account. Jiang Baihui's account had more than five thousand yuan, which was more than the average citizen.
However, the amount of money in this account was consistent with her company's income.
Jiang Baihui and Qian Caixin's company was a wholesale beauty product. They also created their own brand, "White Lotus Vanishing Cream."
The formula for the White Lotus Vanishing Cream was said to be bought from a French company. It was packaged in yellow glass bottles, and the product labels and instructions were all in French. It looked very western and was very popular in China.
Previously, the Bureau of Industry and Commerce had checked their company's accounts. They also privately checked their accounts, but they didn't find any problems. This time, if Mother Liang hadn't taken out two small yellow croakers to exchange for cash, they wouldn't have been able to find anything.
However, now that the couple refused to plead guilty, the case was in a deadlock.
**
Tong Xuelu didn't know that Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi had been arrested.
This morning, after she woke up to make breakfast for the twins, she reminded them not to tire their great-grandfathers out.
Little Yanyan hugged his mother's leg and looked up at her. "Mommy, great-grandfathers said that we are their precious treasures. It's okay even if we are tired."
Little Ranran hugged her chubby arms and nodded coldly. "This is called a sweet burden."
Tong Xuelu was about to laugh to death at the two little guys' expressions. She reached out and pinched their cheeks.
"Even if it's a sweet burden, it's still a burden. Great-grandfathers are old, so you have to take care of them. Mommy knows that you are good children. You can do it, right?"
Little Yanyan nodded and said in a baby voice, "Yes, we can do it. Mommy, don't worry and go to work. You can earn more money to buy snacks for Yanyan."
Tong Xuelu was speechless.
Little Ranran said, "Mommy, don't worry. I will look after Big Brother and not let him steal snacks."
Little Yanyan was speechless.
Tong Xuelu's heart trembled at her son and daughter's cuteness. She promised them that she would come back early today and then went to work.
Not long after she left the house, she was stopped by two men.
"Hello, Comrade Tong. We are from the National Security Agency. We need your cooperation."
The two men took out their work certificates and showed them to her.
It was rare to make fake certificates these days. Even if there was a fake certificate, no one dared to impersonate a government official.
Tong Xuelu nodded and followed them to the National Security Agency.
When she arrived at the National Security Agency, Tong Xuelu found out that Jiang Baihui had been arrested.
She had mixed feelings.
"Comrade Tong, we suspect that the person who contacted the spy is Qian Caixin. However, we don't have any evidence at the moment. We are also worried that we will alert the enemy. We asked you to come here because we want you to describe Jiang Baihui's usual tone of voice. We need to keep Qian Caixin in check."
The National Security Agency task force had already found some clues.
Qian Caixin would send beauty products to the post office every once in a while. They suspected that this was her way of contacting the spy.
They followed the address that she had sent the products to previously, but the other party had already moved.
The enemy was very cunning.
If they wanted to get evidence, they had to wait for Qian Caixin to cooperate with the other party again. However, now that Jiang Baihui had been arrested, Qian Caixin would definitely realize that something was wrong if she didn't go to work today.
She might run away then. They could arrest Qian Caixin, but they wouldn't have any evidence. Furthermore, the spy would escape in the end.
They didn't want to let any spy escape!
Therefore, they thought of Tong Xuelu. As Jiang Baihui's classmate and good friend, they wanted to get some information about Jiang Baihui's lifestyle from Tong Xuelu and see if they could fool Qian Caixin.
After hearing this, Tong Xuelu paused for a moment and said, "Actually, I have a skill."
Deputy Director Zheng raised his eyebrows. "What skill?"
"I can imitate other people's voices."
After saying this, Tong Xuelu said something in Jiang Baihui's voice.
Everyone present: "!!!"
Tong Xuelu's voice just now couldn't be said to be completely unrelated to Jiang Baihui's voice. It could only be said that it was exactly the same!
Deputy Director Zheng was excited. "Comrade Tong, I didn't expect you to have such a skill!"
Tong Xuelu smiled faintly and said, "I usually learn to play when I have nothing to do."
Everyone: "..."
Actually, she had learned this skill in her previous life. In her previous life, she had been very interested in dubbing for a period of time and had spent a lot of money to learn professional dubbing from a professional teacher.
In addition, Jiang Baihui's voice wasn't special, so it was easier to imitate. Therefore, everyone was shocked.
The people from the National Security Agency had originally wanted to find a female comrade who had a voice similar to Jiang Baihui's to appease Qian Caixin through the phone. Now that they had a trump card like Tong Xuelu, things were much easier.
When Qian Caixin arrived at the office, she realized that Jiang Baihui hadn't come to the company yet.
Although the two of them were in a cooperative relationship, in terms of shares, she was the big boss. This was because her investment was twice that of Jiang Baihui's.
Therefore, Jiang Baihui usually came to the company first to manage the employees and handle the documents. Qian Caixin usually slept until ten o 'clock and then slowly came to work.
However, Jiang Baihui didn't come today. This was a little strange.
Qian Caixin walked over to the front desk and asked, "Manager Jiang didn't come to work today?"
The front desk shook her head. "No, it's really strange. Manager Jiang usually comes to work early in the morning. I don't know why she didn't come today."
"Did she ask someone to take the day off?"
"No."
Hearing the front desk's words, Qian Caixin's heart trembled. She vaguely felt that something was wrong.
As spies, they were usually the most sensitive. Once there was any change, they would immediately think of something bad.
Qian Caixin was just about to ask the front desk to go to Jiang Baihui's house to take a look when the phone rang.
The front desk picked up the phone. The next moment, her face lit up. "Manager Jiang, it's you. Chairman Qian just mentioned you. Okay, I'll pass the phone to Chairman Qian."
When Qian Caixin heard that it was Jiang Baihui, the suspicion in her heart dissipated a little.
She took the phone and said, "Hello." Then, she heard Jiang Baihui say on the other end.
"Caixin, my Tianyi has been promoted to Deputy Director. The base has put him in charge of a new project. I received a call yesterday and planned to go to the base to celebrate with him today."
Qian Caixin raised her eyebrows. "Really? Comrade Liang has really been promoted to Deputy Director? "
"Of course it's true!" Jiang Baihui said proudly. "Actually, when we returned to China, the leaders said that they wanted to promote Tianyi to Deputy Director. At that time, they said that they wanted to test Tianyi, so they let him be a basic researcher."
"So that's how it is."
"I'll stay at the base for two days before going back. Is it okay for you to manage the company by yourself?"
Qian Caixin said generously, "Of course not. Congratulate Comrade Liang for me. It's such a joyous occasion. You can stay for a few more days."
The longer she stayed, the more information she would get, and the more valuable it would be when the time came.
Jiang Baihui laughed. "Okay, then I'll hang up. Let's talk when I come back."
Qian Caixin nodded as if they had a tacit understanding. "Okay, let's talk later."
The phone call was recorded. They never talked about important things over the phone.
After hanging up the phone, the people from the National Security Agency all gave Tong Xuelu a thumbs up.
"Comrade Tong, your ability to imitate other people's voices is amazing!"
Not only was the voice similar, but even the tone was very similar. The other party didn't have a trace of doubt.
Tong Xuelu said modestly, "It's my honor to serve the country!"
But when she thought about how Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi were spies, she couldn't help but feel sad.
"Comrade Tong, you have a very high awareness. If everyone was like you, it would save us a lot of trouble!"
Unlike Liang Tianyi and his wife, who were simply ungrateful villains!
Especially Liang Tianyi, who was supported by the country to study abroad. Was this how he served the country?
Cruel and unscrupulous!
Qian Caixin hung up the phone happily.
Liang Tianyi was promoted to Deputy Director and was in charge of a new project. This meant that she could make a lot of money again!
Thinking of this, she went to the warehouse to take a set of beauty products and personally packaged them. Then she went out to the post office.
But the moment she walked into the post office, she was restrained.
Qian Caixin screamed. When she saw the person in front of her, her legs went soft.
It's her! Over! Egg! Over!
