Lu Ming poured himself a cup of tea and drank it. He had already made a calculation in his mind and said with a smile: "After the establishment of the Military Investigation Bureau, the establishment and funding are established, I can retire with success, right?"
"You think so well. It's impossible to have leisure time. Your burden will be even heavier in the future. I'm going to retire after my success." He Zhonghan said with a smile.
"Brother He, where will you go next?" Lu Ming asked.
"After the establishment of the Military Investigation Bureau, I will withdraw, including Gui Yongqing and others, who are the elders when we established the Blue Clothes Club, and return to the military. I may have to return to the principal's attendant's office. Yours
There is no change in position, you are still the deputy station chief of Shanghai Station, but where is your rank of major general?" He Zhonghan reminded, that means Lu Ming still has the highest position at Shanghai Station.
"I think it would be better for me to take this opportunity to quit the Fuxing Society. Look at the relationship between me and Weng Bailing. Alas, we are from Huangpu after all." Lu Ming shook his head.
"You can't retreat. The principal has decided to assign you an important task. Set up a secret service department and attach it to the Intelligence Committee of the First Department of the Ministry of National Defense. As the minister, some of the personnel will be transferred from the Shanghai Station. After the establishment of the Military Investigation Bureau, various departments
Some people in the local sub-stations will also have to be laid off, after all, funds are limited. You can select some people and take them away to form a secret service department, which saves you the step of cutting down the staff," He Zhonghan said.
Lu Ming didn't know why the chairman of the committee appointed him to set up this organization. Was it General Zhang Wenbai's suggestion? To give the secret service school he was organizing a legitimate status?
Is there such a good thing? Unlikely.
"Secret Secret Service Department of the Intelligence Committee of the First Department of the Ministry of National Defense?" Lu Ming muttered these words.
"Yes, this new unit and the merged Military Investigation Bureau are modeled on the two systems of the Soviet National Security Bureau and the Military Intelligence Bureau. Of course, this is a preliminary idea. It is difficult to say how far it can develop." He Zhonghan said.
"Since I'm going to set up a new unit, I don't need to hold the post of deputy director of Shanghai Station concurrently, right?" Lu Ming said.
"The secret service department you are going to form is secret. No one knows about it except the principal and a few generals. It is just established for you, and it is secretly established. You have to pay for it yourself." He Zhonghan smiled.
"No wonder I was asked to set it up. It turned out that I was still required to make money." Lu Ming laughed at himself.
"You are wrong to understand this way. The crackdown on the Communist Party's Shanghai underground organization this time has shown your talents. The principal is eager for talents and feels that you are the best choice to establish this organization. You must first solve the funding problem yourself.
Year, when the country's economy improves, secret funds will be released to you." He Zhonghan explained the secret.
When it came to funding, He Zhonghan felt himself blushing. Now the government really can't come up with money to support a new unit, but things still need to be done well.
Lu Ming immediately understood that Mr. Jiang was interested in the secret service school he wanted to open, so he used this method to get it. Not only did he have to get it, but he also had to find Sheng Youde to pay for it.
Gao, this method is really too clever.
It's obviously a false shot, but it makes you feel like you've been shot for real, and then makes you scratch it yourself.
Of course, Lu Ming didn't object to this approach. Since it was a new unit he found money to establish, it must be the territory he controls.
If the Chairman wants to borrow it, there is no problem. As long as it is for the fight against Japan, he can give it all away. But if the gun is pointed at the Chinese, it is not that easy to take it away.
Lu Ming also knew that the Chairman was always swinging between dealing with the Japanese and the Communist Party, but the goal of this secret service school was very clear, only to deal with the Japanese or to eliminate traitors.
If this special agent school can be used to bring the Chairman to the anti-Japanese front, even if it is only a small step, it will be a great achievement.
According to the current situation, the task assigned by the Chairman to Lu Ming is also a kind of transaction. The Ministry of National Defense secretly establishes the secret service school, but it also legitimately has jurisdiction over this department.
Of course, Lu Ming knew the importance of the country's formal establishment. If the secret service school was turned into a non-governmental organization, it would be an extremely irresponsible act for all secret service personnel.
There is no formal establishment by the state, people's hearts are unstable, and money is another matter. Who wants to stay in the grassroots team for a lifetime.
The reason why non-governmental organizations like Lanyi Society and Fuxing Society are still able to survive is because their backends are so strong that they will become official sooner or later.
This was just his idea. He felt that this should be the result of the game between Mr. Jiang and Sheng Youde, and he was just a pawn being influenced by others.
So there is no need to think too much. Wherever this chess piece goes will not be explained in his book.
A chess player must have the consciousness of a chess player. If you want to be a chess player, you still need to play for a few more years and have enough capital and qualifications.
The two of them came out of the bath, it was almost five o'clock, and then went to the Chinachem Hotel, had some wine and ordered some delicious dishes.
After the two of them finished eating, they went to the Emperor's Grand Theatre. They walked through the VIP aisle and were led to the box chartered by Sheng's Industry.
The waiter also brought tea and some snacks, melon seeds, broad beans and other small foods.
After the curtain opened, it was the imperial concubine whom Mr. Mei Lanfang performed with all his heart, who was drunk. Lu Ming didn't like Peking Opera and couldn't listen to the Taoist speech. He Zhonghan, on the other hand, was mesmerized by it, listening with his eyes closed and still holding a cigarette in his hand.
The beat made Lu Ming confused.
Peking Opera is meant to be listened to with eyes closed, not watched. Only by savoring it slowly and chewing it carefully can you appreciate its charm.
The next morning, He Zhonghan led his entourage back to Nanjing.
After sending He Zhonghan away, Weng Bailing put on a new military uniform and walked around upstairs and downstairs, pushing open all the doors that could be opened, fully displaying the rank of colonel on his shoulders.
This is a good sign. We are only one step away from the major general. Maybe one day we are lucky and fall into the general's crowd. That will be a matter of honor for our ancestors.
He thought intoxicatedly.
Although there is only one level between a colonel and a major general, they are worlds apart.
Only by becoming a general can you truly enter the upper echelons of the military. Colonels are often the ceiling of the middle ranks, which is difficult to overcome. There is another world above.
No matter which soldier, the dream in his heart is to have a general's flower on his epaulette as soon as possible. It can be said that that is the most glorious moment in a soldier's life.
Once you cross the threshold of a general, you become a professional soldier and can spend your whole life in the military camp.
As for major generals and lieutenant generals, the gap is not that big.
Most of the people at the Shanghai Station of Fuxing Society are also soldiers, but they all wear Chinese tunic uniforms to work. Only Weng Bailing can't help it. He thinks that if he doesn't wear military uniforms and doesn't show his military rank, he is walking at night in brocade clothes, so he wears military uniforms every day.
show off.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw it, but they also felt envious in their hearts.
There are still several lieutenant colonels at the Shanghai Station of the Fuxing Society, and Huang Yanning was the lieutenant colonel who was specially promoted after the Battle of Liuyuan.
Weng Bailing was the first person to be promoted to colonel.
On the morning of the third day, Lu Ming just said he was going to Nanjing for business and drove to Nanjing. The only person accompanying him was Liu Qiwen.
The reason why he brought Liu Qiwen with him was because he had always felt that Liu Qiwen was preoccupied recently, often distracted, and often made mistakes when doing things.
Lu Ming didn't mean to blame her, he just wanted to ask her what troubles she had and what was bothering her. If anything, it must be resolved as soon as possible to prevent her from really doing something wrong.
"President, why are you so kind today that you are willing to take me on a long trip?" When we arrived at the outskirts of Shanghai, looking at the open scenery everywhere, Liu Qiwen's mood became cheerful.
"I'm on a business trip, and you are idle at work anyway. In addition, I also want to ask you, have you encountered any difficulties recently? Or are you worried about anything? If so, just tell me and I can help you solve it.
"Lu Ming said while driving.
"No, I'm fine." Liu Qiwen forced a smile.
Lu Ming knew she was lying as soon as he saw her expression, but if she didn't want to say it, he couldn't force her. This was not his style of life.
"If you encounter financial difficulties or feel unwell, tell me and I can easily help you solve it. I know that girls have some things that they cannot say to men. If this is a problem for you, I can help you.
Help you contact the best gynecologist in Shanghai." Lu Ming said.
"What are you talking about? She is still a little girl, so how can she have such problems?" Liu Qiwen said coquettishly.
Lu Ming gave a bitter smile and didn't feel comfortable asking any more questions.
