Meng Shaoyuan had no idea where he was being taken.

The car windows are covered with curtains.

When the car stopped, I realized it was near Xinjiekou.

It's a small building, very old, but there are a few sentries standing at the door.

The two anti-smuggling team members were very polite along the way. When they arrived at the destination, they got out of the car first and opened the door:

"please."

No one questioned him.

Meng Shaoyuan just walked in directly.

There was a servant who served him tea and then ignored him.

After a while, footsteps were heard on the second floor, and Meng Shaoyuan stood up immediately.

A man who looked to be under forty years old, wearing round-rimmed glasses and with an elegant temperament slowly walked down from the second floor.

Meng Shaoyuan immediately said respectfully: "Mr. Song!"

Song Ziwen!

Song Ziwen was startled: "Have you seen me?"

"No, Mr. Song."

Meng Shaoyuan was somewhat duplicitous.

I had seen so many photos of him on the Internet before, but now I recognized him at the first sight.

"Then how did you know it was me?" Song Ziwen was a little curious.

"It's very simple." Meng Shaoyuan had already thought about what to say: "Meng Shaoyuan saved Tang Dujin once in a while. I think he has already told you. The two people who brought me here claimed to be from the anti-smuggling team and the tax police.

Team, besides Mr. Song, who else can be mobilized?"

"No wonder Xiao Tang keeps saying in front of me that you are very smart. Sit down, sit down."

Song Ziwen asked Meng Shaoyuan to sit down, and the servant served coffee and left quickly.

He picked up the coffee and took a sip: "Shaoyuan, I specially want to thank you for inviting you here this time. If Xiao Tang has some shortcomings, I don't know how to explain it to Fu. Not only that, but you also

He deserves such a big credit..."

This matter absolutely cannot be hidden from Song Ziwen.

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said nothing more.

"Are you helping Xiao Tang like this just to please me?" Song Ziwen suddenly asked.

Well.

Embarrassed.

Isn’t that what Meng Shaoyuan thought? But the problem is that someone said it to his face...

Wait.

When Song Ziwen asked this question just now, there was a smile on his lips.

That means he doesn't have any ill intentions.

"Yes, Mr. Song." Meng Shaoyuan decided to take a gamble: "When I knew Tang Dujin's identity, I decided to help him. If I can get Mr. Song's favor, it will be of great benefit to me in my future work."

He answered frankly.

Well, honest.

Song Ziwen felt very satisfied.

In his opinion, the most important quality in life is honesty.

God knows.

Some people actually think that Meng Shaoyuan is an honest person.

"However, I have resigned from all positions in the government." Song Ziwen said slowly: "The only one I serve now is the chairman of the Bank of China. I can't help you much anymore. Moreover, the chairman and I have disputes in many aspects.

I'm afraid that if I want to help you, it will be counterproductive."

You're welcome.

It is true that you, the Minister of Finance and the Vice President of the Executive Yuan, are inappropriate, but you still hold great power and are China's number one God of Wealth.

Without your nod, who can make the final decision on things like currency reform?

But these words cannot be said face to face.

Talk about it in a roundabout way.

Meng Shaoyuan replied calmly: "A friend in need is a friend, and a man of integrity can reveal loyalty. Although Mr. Song is no longer an official in the government, Shaoyuan has seen all the economic reforms you proposed and admired them very much. If you want to transform China

If the economy is doing well, it will never work without you."

Song Ziwen was very satisfied.

The Meng Shao in front of me is just a small spy. What can he know about the high-level affairs?

How could he know that he could still call the shots in the National Government?

He would not even know that although the chairman of the committee had conflicts with him and even slapped the table and yelled at each other, he would still respectfully invite him to seek his opinions when it came to economic development and currency reform.

There is a good saying: "Adversity reveals true friendship, and rigidity reveals loyalty."

It's rare for these words to come out of the mouth of a little spy.

Song Ziwen's thinking was not wrong at all.

Any normal person would consider this.

But he didn't know one thing at all:

Meng Shaoyuan does not belong to this era at all.

Meng Shaoyuan knows everything about what is happening now and what will happen in the future in this era.

Whoever's status is and who can call the wind and rain, his heart is like a mirror.

Song Ziwen remembered that he had worked hard for this country and worked hard without complaint, but when he resigned, the chairman of the committee did not try to retain him at all, and couldn't help but say:

"A candle lights others and consumes itself."

"Yes." Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "The candle illuminates others, but destroys itself."

Song Ziwen was surprised: "Do you know English?"

"Yes, Mr. Song."

"To what extent?"

"There were no problems with communication."

Suddenly, Song Ziwen looked at Meng Shaoyuan with admiration.

A little secret agent is so knowledgeable and can also master English proficiently?

Why didn't you find such outstanding talents under Dai Li before?

"Where did you learn English?"

In front of him, you can't say that you studied in the United States. Meng Shaoyuan said bravely: "My father hired an American teacher for Shaoyuan in the past, and he taught me...it is said that this person is also an economic expert."

But he said this on purpose.

Song Ziwen must be made to value himself, and value himself very much.

Song Ziwen's interest in Meng Shaoyuan was completely aroused: "Then tell me about the economies of China and the United States."

Meng Shaoyuan is waiting for you to ask this question: "Shaoyuan is stupid and talks nonsense. Starting from the 18th year of the Republic of China, the U.S. economy collapsed. In fact, in the 1920s, there were already a number of problems that were ignored or ignored.

A trend conducive to economic development.

Agriculture never fully recovered from the post-war depression, and farmers remained poor during this period.

In addition, many of the so-called higher wage levels in the industrial sector are false. In the past ten years, the application of new machines has squeezed out a large number of workers...

This depression lasted for several years..."

He talked about the knowledge he had learned from books.

Although the United States has entered a period of economic depression, its domestic industrial capacity is strong and it will soon be able to get out of it and regain its strength.

Song Ziwen was amazed in his heart.

A secret agent actually knows so much about the U.S. economy?

"Looking back at the past few years, our country is entering a golden period." Meng Shaoyuan changed the topic: "In these few years, our country's industrial growth rate has averaged as high as 9.3%, creating the first economic miracle.

At the same time, the development of transportation industry is particularly vigorous. In addition to the rapid growth of telecommunications and postal services, more than 20,000 kilometers of railways have been built, more than 80,000 kilometers of roads have been added, and civil air transport has opened up 12 routes with a length of 15,000 kilometers in the past ten years.

Many kilometers.

Let’s look at the emphasis on education. During this period, the government started with the literacy campaign to eliminate illiteracy and ended with the establishment of the Academia Sinica. The education system finally became a complete structure. In order to catch up with the Western powers..."

This agent is incredible.

This is what Song Ziwen was thinking in his heart at this time.

He knows the economies of China and the United States well.

"However, there are advantages and disadvantages." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "From the perspective of prosperity, only the southeastern coastal areas of China have reached the standard of economic prosperity. In terms of steel production, the steel production in the past ten years is not as good as that of Westernization.

The total amount during the exercise period..."

"Shaoyuan." Song Ziwen asked, "Where did you know all this?"

"Without it, Shaoyuan likes to read stuff like this when he has free time." Meng Shaoyuan said perfunctorily: "Right now, our country can be described in four words: rich but not strong!"

"Be rich but not strong!"

Song Ziwen muttered these four words.

Meng Shaoyuan decided to take another risk: "Shaoyuan thought that if China and Japan went to war, the focus of Japan's attack would inevitably shift from North China to East China. Its original intention was to destroy China's national economic foundation developed in the golden decade and make China lose its war capability.

…”

"That's nonsense." Song Ziwen's face darkened: "China and Japan are friendly countries. Although there are occasional frictions, how can you talk about war?"

Meng Shaoyuan was not worried, Song Ziwen was a staunch anti-war faction:

"Mr. Song, Shao Yuan is bold. If Mr. Song thinks that there will be no war between China and Japan, what is the purpose of establishing an elite tax police corps?

On January 28, the Tax Police Corps fought a bloody battle, and almost all the officers and soldiers of the Second Regiment and Second Battalion died heroically.

After the Song-Shanghai Agreement was signed, Mr. Song secretly negotiated with Qian Zongze, director of the Longhai Railway Bureau, to prepare more than 30 trains and concentrate them in Haizhou in order to cope with emergencies in North China. He also transported the entire tax police group to Zhengzhou in preparation.

Headed to Peiping. Unfortunately, the matter was discovered by Henan Provincial Chairman Liu Zhi, who called the Chairman and gave up."

"That's enough, Shao Yuan."

Song Ziwen interrupted him: "There are some things you should keep in your heart and don't say, even if you kill yourself, don't say them."

"Yes, Shao Yuan knows he was wrong."

"Who is right and who is wrong?" Song Ziwen smiled bitterly: "Shaoyuan, come and help me. I'll say hello to Dai Yunong."

What he lacks the most now is such talents who understand English, economics, and military affairs.

forget it.

Meng Shaoyuan knew very well how much he weighed, so he just read out his economic advice literally: "Thank you Mr. Song for your kindness, but it's just that Shaoyuan seemed to play a greater role in Lixingshe. Mr. Song will have a greater influence on Shaoyuan in the future."

If you have any motivation, I will never refuse, and I will try my best to repay Mr. Song's appreciation."

Song Ziwen actually knew that Dai Li would never let a talent like Meng Shaoyuan go, and he did not force him at that time: "You saved Xiao Tang, what do you need me to do for you?"

"arms."

Meng Shaoyuan said without thinking: "I am currently setting up a secret operations team. I will figure out all the funds and weapons myself. Shaoyuan has already sent people to Shanghai to purchase, but..."

"I understand." Song Ziwen nodded: "I will help you find a way with the Bank of Eight to see if I can get a batch of weapons for you."

"Thank you Mr. Song, Shao Yuan will never forget you!"
