Sixty years old with the army, the heirless boss loves his fertile wife

Chapter 151 Accident
"What's the cost?"

Zhan Zeye stood on the reef deck, watching one soldier after another jump into the sea. He couldn't help but think of what Tang Qiuyue said last night.

Only after his relentless questioning did Tang Qiyue tell him.

It means going to sea to get some good things for her, preferably some rare treasures, such as a sunken treasure ship.

For this kind of thing, Zhan Zeye thought it would be more realistic for him to go to his old leader and get some good things.

Political Commissar Wu bumped Zhan Zeye's shoulder and said, "What are you thinking about? Why are you so absent-minded?"

Political Commissar Wu also came with them on this voyage, as he just wanted to get some quiet time.

Zheng Hongxia was worried about her sister's marriage and was pestering Political Commissar Wu to create conditions for Zheng Hongjuan and Tang Xiuyuan.

He is okay in managing the people in the military camp, but how can he be in charge of the affairs of the research institute?
Old Wu, who was fishing with a fishing rod nearby, was feeling very comfortable. But when he saw Zhan Zeye's look, he was kind enough to ask about it.

Zhan Zeye would never tell Political Commissar Wu about his troubles, but instead asked if anything had happened to his old leader.

Political Commissar Wu is keeping a close eye on information in this area.

"Don't mention it. I just received a telegram last night, reminding me to be careful. Something might happen to the old commander!"

Political Commissar Wu sighed: "What do you think is going on now? How could something go wrong at this time for a senior leader of that status?"

Zhan Zeye sighed, "Who can predict the current situation? Those people are more troublesome than the others. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us!"

Zhan Zeye just said this casually and didn't want to have anything to do with him.

But three days later, just as he returned to the island, he received a call from his old leader who personally came to tell him a bolt from the blue.

"what!!!"

Zhan Zeye exploded after hearing this.

Even Political Commissar Wu, who came with them, had a look of disbelief on his face.

"How could something happen to the old leader?"

If the news had not been delivered by someone they trusted, Zhan Zeye and Political Commissar Wu would never have believed it. But the facts were there, and it was unrealistic not to believe it.

"How are you doing?"

What Zhan Zeye was most worried about was the old leader's health.

The man who came was the old leader's right-hand man, and this time the old leader found a way to send him to the island to hide.

"The old commander and his wife are fine. He even told me to tell you not to worry about him. As long as you haven't seen his body, don't take any news seriously!"

The impact of this news was so great that both Zhan Zeye and Political Commissar Wu needed time to digest it.

Political Commissar Wu still had to go find someone to verify this, so he left first.

The person who came to talk to Zhan Zeye alone said: "The old leader asked me to remind you that all operations on the island are now independent and are not subject to his deployment or control by anyone. But at the same time, you are now responsible for all your own expenses!"

Compared with the previous news, this news left Zhan Zeye confused.

Can't we let them rebel?

"What the old commander means is that your soldiers and all the expenses and research directions of the institute are to be arranged by Comrade Tang Qiyue, and everything is based on her orders. You can only assist her and are not allowed to refute her!"

Zhan Zeye: ...

Not to mention Zhan Zeye's face full of disbelief, even the messenger was doubting his life. What kind of orders were these?
He knew that the old leader must have his own arrangements, but if he hadn't heard the order with his own ears, he would have suspected that it was a prank.

Tang Qiyue is just Zhan Zeye’s wife, and she is not even a member of the military. How can she arrange matters in the military camp and the research institute?
"Also, the old commander told me to tell you that the island is under a complete blockade. You are not allowed to return to the harbor. All information about the island from the harbor will also be erased!"

The visitor was numb, he was just a machine to pass on messages.

Zhan Zeye didn't know how to complain. He felt that the old leader was making trouble.

"Did the old commander ask you to bring anything?"

Zhan Zeye could probably guess the old leader's intention, but did all the arrangements require money?
The visitor smiled awkwardly: "The old leader also asked me to tell you that he said that the country is in a difficult situation now. You have to let Comrade Tang Qiyue understand. If you really need any help, I will let you find a way!"

Zhan Zeye: ...

At this point, if Zhan Zeye still didn't know that the old leader wanted to get something for nothing, he would be a fool.

The old leader's life is definitely not in danger. In fact, all these arrangements were probably worked out by him and some big boss just to trick him.

"Brother, although I cannot understand the old commander's intention, you should know what's going on, right?"

The man patted Zhan Zeye on the shoulder, and Zhan Zeye sneered: "I do know, and I even know that you were thrown here to help me. Those soldiers in the barracks are under your charge. I want to go back to protect my wife!"

The person who came had obviously been told something by the old leader and knew why Zhan Zeye was so angry.

He just rubbed his nose and awkwardly accepted the task of training the soldiers in the barracks, allowing Zhan Zeye to calm down first.

Zhan Zeye went straight home and was about to complain to Tang Qiyue when he saw that Tang's mother and Uncle Wang were actually at home.

Got it!
Now I understand that the old leader is using this trick to force Tang Qiyue to cooperate.

When Tang's mother saw Zhan Zeye coming back, she nodded as a greeting.

Zhan Zeye couldn't be ignorant, he went over to call people, and knowing that Tang's mother didn't like him, he pulled Uncle Wang out to talk.

Uncle Wang’s favorite thing is cooking. When he arrived and saw the yard full of vegetables, he was so excited that he immediately rolled up his sleeves and started picking vegetables to prepare for cooking.

Zhan Zeye had to help out.

"Mom, I didn't expect you to come so soon. The house isn't ready yet, so I might have to ask you to sleep with me for the next few days!"

Zhan Zeye and Uncle Wang would have to stay in the military camp dormitory for a few days.

Tang's mother waved her hands: "What's the big deal? I can do whatever I want. But you don't have to worry about getting a house. Your uncle Wang has already asked about it and has arranged a small courtyard for us. We'll go take a look later!"

Since we are all on the island, there is no need to live in the same yard.

It was only at this time that Tang Qiyue remembered that they had originally asked Uncle Wang to come to the island to cook, which was a serious job with a regular salary, and Tang's mother came here as a family member.

That being the case, we will definitely arrange a house for Uncle Wang.

Sure enough, the one-eyed uncle came over and saw Uncle Wang busy in the kitchen, so he went over to watch.

After all, Uncle Wang’s ancestors had been imperial chefs, so he had some specialties, and the key was that he really knew how to handle seafood.

The seafood that Tang Qiuyue brought back from the sea was now processed by Uncle Wang, and the dishes made were amazing enough.

The one-eyed uncle was originally in a bad mood, but after he took a bite of the food, his bad mood instantly disappeared.

"Girl, your dad is a good cook. You will be in for a treat in the future!"

When the one-eyed uncle saw Tang Qiyue, his face was full of praise.
