What a surprise

"Stop talking nonsense, why did you come to me when you weren't staying at the staff headquarters?" Just as his secret was about to be exposed, Jiao Qiao quickly changed the subject, lifted up the fishing rod, and pretended to have stopped fishing.

"Someone went to the small building..." Zhang Ke was indeed not here to check for fishing. Hearing this, he stroked his glasses frame and told the purpose of his visit.

"Who...who..." Two voices sounded almost at the same time, Jiao Qiao and Hu Ran looked surprised and curious.

"How about we make a bet. Each of you guesses three times, and you win as long as one of your guesses is correct. I will take out Grandpa Hong's secret bait formula and keep it for you to take the bait if you want to fish in the future, no matter day or night.

If you don’t guess correctly, hey hey, I’ll have to choose one piece from your home collection.”

The more anxious others were, the more slowly Zhang Ke took his time, opening the market without giving an answer, explaining the betting rules clearly in a verbose manner, and even took out a very tempting bet.

"Don't bet... don't bet... whether you want to talk or not, I can tell you with just one phone call!" Unfortunately, neither Jiao Qiao nor Hu Ran were fooled. They were not very good at letting Hong Tao use this method. What the hell, it's harmful to others.

It can still be inherited. After the master has done harm to his apprentice, he will do more harm to his apprentice. Just dream.

"What kind of skill is that? It's useless for you two to keep those things. They will break easily if you keep them for a long time. Why don't you give them to me cheaply and come back when you want to use them? You even save on maintenance. In this way, I will add more

On top of that, how about motorcycles and jade chess?"

But after all, Zhang Ke is Hong Tao's direct disciple. He has learned a lot of tricks, and he obviously has a backup plan. It doesn't matter if you don't get fooled. He only needs to increase the stakes and do what he likes. As long as the capital is enough, I don't believe anyone can withstand it.

"...Landi? Lu Ye Jiangnan? Chuqiu?" Hu Ran was the first to give in. He thought about it and named the three names. Even he himself didn't have much confidence.

"...Liu Quanyou? Li Xiang? Chu Ting?" With Hu Ran opening the way, Jiao Qiao calmed down a little and selected the three most representative ones from the remaining people.

"It's totally wrong, it's so wrong..." As a result, Zhang Ke not only shook his head, but also curled his lips.

"You damn kid, if you don't tell me, I'll break your legs!" Jiao Qiao couldn't stand this kind of expression, so he turned around and picked up the shotgun and aimed it at Zhang Ke's left leg.

"Don't lie. The air rifle hanging on your wall belongs to me. I'll pick it up another day... Actually, you two lost unjustly. Minister Lin and Minister Zhou didn't guess it either. I guess all departments are now asking about this."

Even the chairman is confused about this matter.

Grandpa Hong has the ability to make life-long friends no matter where he goes. This is called charisma... Wow... Oops, let me tell you, his name is Zhang Weiping!"

If you don't look at the face and just listen to the style of conversation, Zhang Ke does look like Hong Tao at least sixty-seven times. The core characteristic is one word, broken! No matter what the matter is, he will go off track while talking, which can kill people.

It's a pity that just talking nonsense can't make you a qualified chatterbox. If you don't have a strong body and intimidation, you will be grabbed by the neck by Jiao Qiao like now, and stabbed in the butt with a freshly shot shotgun barrel, and the pants will be wet.

Smoked.

"Zhang Weiping!?" Jiao Qiao and Hu Ran both looked confused at this name.

"He is one of the commanders of the Xinjiang Provincial Resistance Army and is now the 66th director of the Council. I heard about him when I was in Xinjiang Province. He was very brave in fighting against the Redeemers. He was also the one who fought against the White Water City and Qiuci Counterattacks.

The leader...hiss, really, he is so cruel!"

In order not to be stabbed in the butt by the hot barrel of the gun, Zhang Ke had to finish all the information about this person in one breath. Then he was freed from Jiao Qiao's hands and hurried to the side to take off his pants and check the wound.

"He knows Hong Tao?" Jiao Qiao put down his gun, took out a cigarette and handed one to Hu Ran.

Regarding the resettlement of survivors in Xinjiang Province, it is all operated by the alliance government. I have never asked about who should be on the council and who can be assigned what positions. I don’t care much about it. If I want to know the details of this person, I can only ask at the moment.

Zhang Ke.

"You have to ask Minister Zhou about this matter. She was one of her subordinates who cooperated with the rebels in Xinjiang Province. I guess we not only know each other, but also have a close friendship with her."

Zhang Ke did not know much about Zhang Weiping's personal information. He came to Jiao Qiao not only to report the matter, but also wanted to find out some inside information from Zhou Yuan through this channel.

Even though they called her Aunt Zhou when they met, they had a pretty good relationship, but the female minister was no better than Lin Na. As a junior, she really didn't have that much dignity, so she would send her back after just a few words.

"Humph, just wait and see, surprises will come one after another..." In Zhou Yuan's office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the female minister was sitting behind her desk, looking at the phone she had just put down, with a sneer on her lips, and said to herself.

In less than half an hour, three calls came in, Jiao Qiao, Landi and Chu Qiu. The content of the call was all the same, inquiring about the relationship between Zhang Weiping and Hong Tao. They went around in circles to obtain the Xinjiang Provincial Action Files for various reasons.

Yes, there are also direct inquiries.

But regardless of good intentions or bad intentions, one fact is already obvious. The already very complicated situation was further aggravated by the sudden appearance of Zhang Weiping.

Now, regardless of the reformists, royalists, or neutralists, they must recalculate the previously estimated balance of power, because everyone has forgotten a variable parameter, the survivors of Xinjiang Province.

Speaking of which, Zhou Yuan also blamed herself. She did not expect that Hong Tao would have such great influence among the survivors in Xinjiang Province. She just felt that Sun Dacheng's attitude was affected, that's all.

"Bang...bang bang...bang..." Just when Zhou Yuan was about to read the Xinjiang Province case files again and carefully search for clues, the door was knocked gently and rhythmically.

"Come in!" No need to ask, this is Secretary Sun's method, and he has an important work report.

"...Minister, Shabalin went to the small building just five minutes ago!" Secretary Sun still slipped into the crack of the door like a wisp of breeze, took half a step forward, stood at attention, raised his head, looked straight, opened the folder, and put the

The field staff's call records were reproduced verbatim.

"Hahahaha... The centipede is dead but not stiff. I knew he wouldn't be so obedient. Now there's something good to watch... Go to the training center right away and tell me... Forget it, I'll come too.

Go, I'm afraid they won't believe you!"

The room suddenly burst into harsh laughter, and Zhou Yuan almost fell off the chair because her body was shaking so hard. Now she finally understood why Hong Tao returned to the alliance in a low-key manner and acted like he was being exploited.

When everyone thought that the founder and first chairman of the alliance was at the end of his rope and had no choice but to accept the alliance under the city, no one forgot to calculate a force, the survivors of Xinjiang Province!

This force cannot be said to be very powerful. After all, it was dismantled and relocated to Chang'an, Beijing, Changchun, and Jinmen Port. It is a new arrival, unfamiliar with the place, and has too much time to take care of itself. It is still unknown when and whether it can form a force.

It makes sense not to be counted.

But people who are very familiar with the composition and customs of Xinjiang Province will definitely not think so. The Redeemers have been fighting the rebels for so many years. They have an absolute advantage in numbers, weapons, geographical location, and resources. They even have foreign aid. But why have they always been there?

Can't it be eliminated?

The reason is very simple. There are some local people who, according to the Mainland, are born to be rebellious and stubborn. No matter who the opponent is or how powerful they are, as long as they touch their reverse scales, they will continue to toss endlessly.

At this time, regardless of the suspicion of various factions, they pretended not to understand the council's declaration and took the lead in meeting Hong Tao. They were the leaders of this group of people. The reason for them to go was also very good. If Hong Tao hadn't attracted the adjudicator back then,

Most of their energy has also weakened the effectiveness of the adjudicator. I am afraid that these two people will not be able to hold on today.

Not only was it a life-saving grace, the little girl Camilla rescued by Hong Tao from the Redeemer was the niece of Shabalin, one of the leaders of the resistance, and the only blood inheritance of their family.

What I have to do now is to pour some more oil on the firewood pile and let the small flames burn quickly. Reformists and outsiders can gain majority support at the government level, but they have a big shortcoming among the refugees.

The influence is very limited, and as time goes by, the reputation becomes more and more bad.

If Hong Tao can unite this group of survivors from Xinjiang Province, and with the reputation he gained in the safe zone and the remaining power of the year, Bao Buqi will be able to create a force that does not belong to any faction out of thin air, and thus start from the outside.

Internal indirect influence on the high-level structure.

This trick is so clever that ordinary people will never be able to tell it in a short time. Even if I know the man so well, I have only made a general guess and don't know the specific details.

It's too risky. It's easy to be attacked openly and secretly from all sides, and neither the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Logistics, nor the Ministry of Internal Affairs can blatantly protect it. Everything must be done in accordance with the rules.

But think about it on the other hand, who knows better and is more familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of this set of rules than Hong Tao. Judging from his consistent style, it is speculated that Baobuqi had a backdoor hidden when it was originally designed.

If we really want to fight at the level of rules, the advantage of the person in power will be weakened to the maximum extent, and the power of the refugee class he represents may be maximized. However, Zhou Yuan's brain still cannot figure out the context, it is too complicated.

There are too many variables, too huge.

"Also, call Director Gou immediately and withdraw all personnel from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the Southeast Alliance and Southwest Alliance, leaving only the core and most necessary liaison agencies."

Just as she walked out of the office, Zhou Yuan thought of another person. Gou Chenzhi, like Zhang Ke and Lan Yuer, had been educated by Hong Tao since childhood, and maybe he would support his idol as firmly as Zhang Ke.
