Chapter 10: The old man will cheat people
"Not bad, it's much better than I thought!" A white-haired old man adjusted his glasses and looked at the contents written in the notebook in his hand with admiration.
Opposite him, Jiang He sat obediently on the sofa, with a solemn expression as if he was waiting for the other party's verdict.
"I am very satisfied with your work." The old man put down the notebook in his hand, then took out a stack of brand new money from under the coffee table and pushed it in front of Jiang He, "This is your reward."
Jiang He glanced at him and said, "Professor, you gave too much."
The old man laughed and said, "You have completed your work beyond the target, so the extra money is my thanks to you."
"No, I just need to take the portion that I deserve." Jiang He counted out 18 Great Unity tickets and pushed the rest away.
The old man did not insist, but took out a document from a bookcase next to him and put it in front of Jiang He again, "Open it and take a look."
Jiang He saw the top secret red stamp on it and narrowed his eyes. "Grandpa, this... isn't good, is it?"
"Since I've shown it to you, there won't be any big problems." The old man waved his hand.
Jiang He could only open the bag, pull out the package, flip through two pages, and then quickly stuff the package back into the bag. "This..."
"Are you scared?" The old man was still cheerful and was not angry about Jiang He's actions, but his eyes were sharp, which calmed Jiang He's originally fast heartbeat. "Old man, this..."
"Don't worry, I am the only one who took over this case. No one else. You just handed over the case teaching material I gave you before." The old man suddenly lowered his voice. "This case is very important to us. Many people paid a great price for it. I hope you can help me with this."
Jiang He seemed to see the hopeful light in the old man's eyes at this moment, so he nodded carefully, "This document uses Morse code, so it may take some time."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Jiang He picked up the document in his hand and walked into the inner room of the office. He lowered his head and carefully translated the contents of the document one by one. He also wrote down all the more in-depth contents. He finally finished the translation until it was getting dark.
When he was carrying the package out, he saw a few more people in the office. They were all wearing dark Mao suits. Although they were sitting on the sofa, their sitting posture seemed very dignified, like a general who had been through many battles.
Moreover, the older man among these people had an aura of authority without being angry, and his eyes were filled with scrutiny when he looked at Jiang He, which made Jiang He feel a little uncomfortable.
He walked a few steps to the old man and handed the item in his hand to him, but suddenly a hand reached out from the side, took the item away and handed it to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man opened it and took a look, then handed it to a spectacled man next to him. The man glanced over the contents and then showed joy on his face, "This is it."
"Grandpa, I'm leaving first. Remember to tell you, the kid, not to go out and talk nonsense." The middle-aged man looked at Jiang He deeply, and without saying anything else, he led the group of people away in a mighty manner.
Jiang He suddenly felt puzzled. He glanced at the old man and got a very relieved expression from him. "Don't worry, it's okay. Although the incident is important, it's not to the point of killing you to silence you."
