Chapter 866
Jiang Feng nodded and said, "Then, although I don't know what kind of store I opened, I have at least a flaw. This town is so dilapidated, I don't see many stores. When I go in and look for it from door to door, I will definitely gain something. Of course, it's up to you, Azhu, you have to look at people carefully. If not, leave as soon as possible and attract less attention."
Everyone understood Jiang Feng's words, and then the group began to quietly enter the dilapidated Zhongcheng Town.
It can be seen that this is an ancient city. The already dilapidated ancient city walls stand weakly outside the town. If it weren't for the erosion of wind and sand and the years, there would never be a sense of vicissitudes of history.
From the well-preserved sections of the city wall, it can be seen that Zhongcheng Town was a relatively large city at that time. In fact, the same is true. In 1440 more than 500 years ago, this place was one of the six major counties in the northern part of the Joseon Dynasty. It was also considered an important town in the northern part of the Joseon Dynasty at that time.
Since it was afternoon, the sun was shining and cloudless, Jiang Feng could even clearly see a string of very large dynasty slogans arranged on the mountainside of the mountain behind Zhongcheng Town, which probably meant that the great leader had a long life. He couldn't help but ask Jin Zhehua curiously why these big slogans were placed on the mountainside?
Jin Zhehua smiled and told him that as long as it was a bigger town in Chaoguo, these slogans that supported the leader must be hung, just like China during the Great Patriotic Period decades ago. Jiang Feng smiled, let alone, Chaoguo looks a bit similar to China during the previous Patriotic Period.
Since Zhongcheng has no protection from the city walls, it seems very open, and the road into the town is open and there is no obstacle at all.
When the group passed through the seriously damaged old city wall and entered Zhongcheng Town, they found that although the people living here all needed roads to walk around, they were still very popular. There were many farmers and ordinary people walking on the streets, and there were many shouts and shouts from time to time.
The country was originally a planned economy country, and food and goods were distributed uniformly by the state. However, according to Jin Zhehua, the country began to reform a few years ago to encourage the opening of private stores. It is precisely because of this that there are so many stalls and vendors and shops on the streets. However, this is also a border area bordering China, and such a phenomenon will not occur in depth. Why? The answer is actually very simple. The country is poor, and all goods are basically imported from China, so the border is also the area with the most frequent trade, so there are naturally many vendors. However, the country in the country naturally does not have this condition. This is actually the same as China's intentional construction of coastal special economic zones during the reforms in the early years.
In the early stage of this transformation, the market economy is still just a prototype. Looking at the stall vendors squatting on the ground wearing shabby clothes, Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh deeply. The country can no longer return to this era. How similar the country in front of him is to China. China is now thriving, but there must be no turmoil and let the people live in poverty! He had never had any responsibility on his shoulders before. He always thought he was just a businessman. Although he was not profit-oriented, he was not very concerned about big things and just lowered his head to make a fortune. But when he saw this shabby Zhongcheng Town, it really shocked him.
Jiang Feng quickly woke up from his meditation and was unwilling to think about these complex issues again. Although he can exert a certain influence on the top leaders now, he does not have the ability to influence the fate of the country. Since he comes, he will be at ease, but it is better to find a way to escape safely from the country.
With Kim Hyun-joo and Cao Kuan and others, Jiang Feng quickly walked around a street in the town. Every shop asked Kim Hyun-joo to carefully observe the people inside and asked the boss a few words. Unfortunately, they were not the head of the branch of the Relief Society. It seemed that although the town was small, it was really difficult to find someone.
"Get out of the way!!" Just as Jiang Feng and his team walked into another narrow street from the intersection, a very arrogant voice came from the front, and there were waves of dissatisfaction shouts from time to time from time to time among the crowd. Jiang Feng was tall and looked through the crowd. What a guy, the one who called out was a group of patrol soldiers! He immediately pulled Jin Xianzhu and walked into the shop door next to him. Cao Kuan and the others soon followed him, leaning against the wall on the side of the shop door, holding their breath.
With a rapid and neat step from far to near, the fully armed patrol soldiers seemed very anxious and were sprinting towards the entrance of Zhongcheng Town, looking full of dangerous gunpowder.
After the soldiers disappeared, the vendors on the street soon began to discuss secretly. At this time, two vendors happened to lean against the store and whispered. Jiang Feng's ears stood up and he heard all the words of the two people talking.
"Why are so many soldiers in the town dispatched? What's the matter?" Hawker Ar asked curiously, "I haven't had so many patrol soldiers in Zhongcheng Town for such a long time, right? Did something big happen?"
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful that there are ears in the wall to arrest you and go to jail, that would be miserable!" Hawker B hurriedly covered A's mouth and said strangely, "It's really strange. It was fine two hours ago, why did the soldiers patrolling during this period have so many more for no reason?"
Jiang Feng was shocked when he heard this. Two hours ago? Wasn't that not long after they killed the sentrymen? It seemed that the gunshots of the sentrymen had triggered a chain reaction. It seemed that they already knew that they were coming to Zhongcheng Town, so they strengthened their vigilance and sent more patrol soldiers. Yes, that must be the case!
He frowned and thought about it the more he felt that it was possible, otherwise Zhongcheng Town would not have suddenly become martial law. If he did not leave here as soon as possible, as time went by, the road along the way would definitely be blocked by a large number of soldiers, and by then they would really become turtles in the jar.
The more he thought about it, Jiang Feng felt a little headache, and was about to tell Kim Hyun-joo beside him about his guess, but he found that Kim Hyun-joo's eyes were straight behind him, showing surprise and joy. He couldn't help but ask strangely: "Azhu? What's wrong with you?"
"Jiang Feng, I think I have found the person in charge of the branch." Jin Hyun-joo showed a sweet and moving smile, pointed behind Jiang Feng, and said, "It's him."
Jiang Feng turned around and looked at the counter of the store. He saw a middle-aged man in simple clothes but obviously more upscale than a civilian dress, bent down and holding a pen to settle the score. He asked uncertainly: "It's really him?"
"Yes, although I have only met once, I will not forget his characteristics." Kim Hyun-joo pointed to her face and said, "There is a dark red birthmark on his cheek. His name is Zheng Weixin, a member of the Relief Society. He is a very good person. He has helped more than 500 refugees escape from the border of the North Korea. Later, he was appointed as the main person in charge of the Zhongcheng Town area by the Relief Society. At the last time, the Relief Society held a conference, I met him and had dinner and chatted with him, so it was him who could not admit his mistake."
Seeing that Kim Hyun-joo was so sure, Jiang Feng nodded and nodded, "What are you waiting for? Let's recognize him quickly and let him help! Ah Zhu, after killing the soldiers at the outpost just now, our whereabouts were probably exposed, and the Chaozhou Kingdom has begun to strengthen patrols and prepare to arrest us. Uncle Guoqiang has a good friend, and his army is stationed in the border area of the Tumen River. We must contact him quickly, let him know our current situation and help us leave here safely. With China, our identity is exposed, even if we believe that the Chaozhou Kingdom will not dare to do anything to us. But if we cannot contact the country, once those Chaozhou people arrest us and cannot show their identity and strength in the country, and regard us as ordinary illegal entry, the consequences will be unimaginable."
After hearing Jiang Feng's words, Kim Hyun-joo nodded immediately to express her understanding. A hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes. After adjusting her emotions, she walked to the counter of the store.
"Dongdong..." Jin Hyun-joo tapped the old counter and shouted to the middle-aged boss who was bowing his head to settle the score: "Hello, Uncle Zheng."
The middle-aged boss named Zheng Weixin was settled with a pen. Suddenly, he heard the crisp female voice. He started to look at Jin Hyun-joo, then looked shocked, and leaned back on the shelf in fear, and said in a trembling voice: "You, you..."
Kim Hyun-joo was startled by Jung Weixin's performance and lowered her voice in confusion: "Uncle Zheng, have you forgotten? I am Kim Hyun-joo from the Relief Club. We had a meeting last month, had dinner and chatted, did you forget?"
Zheng Weixin was full of panic and insensible at first, but then he seemed to think of something. His eyes quickly glanced around. After he looked at Jin Hyun-joo carefully, he felt a little relieved and said with a smile: "Oh, it turns out it's Jin... Miss Jin, haha, why are you? Why are you secretly coming... coming to the country?"
"This matter is a long story, so it may be inconvenient here..." Jin Hyun-joo glanced around the store and whispered, "Uncle Zheng, is there any hidden place?"
Zheng Weixin's eyes rolled, and he immediately slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, you're so confused. Come on, please come inside."
Jin Xianzhu and Jiang Feng glanced at him and saw Jiang Feng nodding. She took Jiang Feng, Cao Kuan and others into the backyard of the shop. After Zheng Weixin ordered the clerk beside him, he hurried to the backyard and made tea and handed it over. (To be continued.)
