The eldest son stood up. Since he could not change the outcome, he could only accept it.
"It's not that people don't deal with it, but that we decide how to deal with it is most suitable for us. Even we can't do whatever we want with many things."
Seeing his son's appearance, the old man couldn't bear it and took the initiative to explain.
"Father, I understand that they are indeed difficult to deal with. I understand."
The eldest son nodded, he did understand, but the feeling of trying so hard to find out everything, only to let the mastermind go in the end still made him feel aggrieved.
…
"Assign tasks now."
In the inspection room, when Chu Lingyun came back, he called everyone into the conference room, including Director Zheng. He participated in the entire operation. He did not want to share the credit, but to gain some benefits for his subordinates.
With so many people, Chu Lingyun agreed to let people from the Second Military Intelligence Bureau arrest a few of them.
In this way, the credit can fall on the Second Military Intelligence Bureau.
Director Zheng is very satisfied.
The Second Military Intelligence Bureau has always cooperated with the work of the Inspection Office. In the past, they always lent their torture rooms and cells. This time they deserve some reward, and the people in the Inspection Office will not have any objections.
"Zhao Dong hasn't come back yet?"
Seeing that Zhao Dong was not there, Chu Lingyun frowned, and Chu Yuan immediately replied: "We are already here and on the way."
"Okay, let's assign your tasks first."
Chu Lingyun did not waste time. Zhao Dong went to Shanghai and was responsible for investigating Wu Zhenan's suppliers. During this period, he was not idle and got a lot of evidence. Those suppliers who provided defective products must also be arrested. Zhao Dong came back
Later, the Shanghai Secrecy Bureau and MI6 helped them arrest people.
Let him come back this time, give him some credit, and accumulate merit for him.
"Chu Yuan, you go to the first and third halls."
Chu Yuan stood up and took over the task. There were three people involved in the case from the first and third departments. The number was not large. Chu Yuan didn't care about the credit. It didn't matter even if he wasn't allowed to do it.
"Jia Changguo, go to the fourth and fifth halls."
"Yue Guangfu, the Sixth Department and the Information Bureau..."
Chu Lingyun continued to make arrangements, and people were all arranged in the six halls and eight bureaus.
There will definitely be a big earthquake in the ministry this time, and it will be unprecedented to arrest so many people at once.
"Director Shao, the Second Office and the General Affairs Office will be left to you."
Chu Lingyun looked at Shao Wenchang, the director of the Second Bureau of Military Intelligence who was attending the meeting. The biggest problem in the general affairs office was Wu Zhenan. It was a pity that he was dead, but he had a lot of minions under his command. Those who could be recorded in his ledger were all important people. He caught one
You can pull out a group.
The General Affairs Office has both merit and success.
"Thank you, Director Chu."
Shao Wenchang grinned. Chu Lingyun was very interesting. The general affairs office was enough for him. As for the second office, it was left to the director, and their military intelligence bureau was responsible for arresting people.
"Fang Like."
"The humble job is here."
Fang Like stood up excitedly. He had the greatest credit for this case. The director did not forget him and deliberately left him for the finale. All other departments were assigned, and now only one was left, the minister's office.
That's the most critical place.
"Come with me to the minister's office."
Sure enough, the minister's office was handed over to him. As for going alone, Fang Like didn't even think about it. His small body couldn't hold it at all. Anyone picked out there would probably be as good as him.
Not to mention that the person arrested this time is a big shot.
"Yes, I humbly accept my order."
After arranging the task, Zhao Dong is back. He will go to arrest people with Chu Lingyun. The credit of the minister's office is enough, and Fang Like doesn't care if Zhao Dong takes something away.
"Director, do you want to come with us?"
Chu Lingyun looked at Director Zheng, who smiled and shook his head: "I won't go, you go. I wish you a triumphant return."
Director Zheng is an old fox. It is obvious that the person at the top will not impose severe punishments this time. There is no need for him to go there in person and cause people to have objections to him.
It is okay to participate, but he is not the leader, and that is enough.
Zheng Guangtao also accepted the task. Chu Lingyun has not forgotten his nephew. What else is he dissatisfied with?
Fang Like and Zheng Guangtao can both be promoted this time. They are their own people.
"Director, let's go then."
The inspection room car drove out again, and Bi Qingwen sat at the desk in the minister's office, with despair on his face.
He just came out of Vice-Chairman Hu's office. He is Vice-Chairman Hu's man.
Vice-Chancellor Hu is from Guangxi, and is fellow villager with General Bai.
It was Chief Hu who gave the order before, asking him to get rid of Wu Zhenan.
Unexpectedly, Wu Zhenan's death left a huge hole for them.
Wu Zhenan, this kid, dared to keep his account books privately. It is said that they were shot on microfilm and hidden in the water pipes. He was indeed smart enough, but his smartness was not used in the right way.
This time everyone was in trouble.
Including the president.
The old man called General Bai and General Li and asked them to come over to discuss the matter. When General Bai understood what was going on, he immediately scolded Chief Hu severely.
A small matter that could have been handled safely was finally made big by them.
General Bai and Deputy Chief Hu knew very well what the old man's purpose was. In next year's election, the old man would definitely be elected president. There were no surprises. No one had ever thought of competing with him.
However, there are variables in the choice of vice president, especially General Lee, who is bound to win the vice president.
General Li was not in Nanjing just to prepare for this incident.
I didn't expect that such a big thing would happen to them. The old man obviously wanted to use this matter to negotiate with them and make General Li give up the campaign.
For them, asking General Lee to give up his position as Vice President would be tantamount to giving up most of his power, which is absolutely unacceptable. Vice-Chairman Hu knew very well that even if he gave up, General Lee would not give up the campaign.
Bi Qingwen did such a bad job, and Deputy Chief Hu was even more annoyed.
Just now in the office, Deputy Chief Hu gave Bi Qingwen two options, one was to commit suicide and apologize, and the other was to wait to be arrested.
Deputy Chief Hu hoped that he would think carefully. If he apologized, he would be able to save his family and there would be no guarantee that he would be arrested.
Chief Hu did not kill anyone. It was not necessary at this point. Killing people again would simply add fuel to the fire. People have obtained the evidence and know what he did. There is no point in killing people and silencing them.
Fortunately, he had roped in a higher-level person to participate, giving him an extra layer of protection.
General Bai has analyzed that the old man probably won't deal with him, otherwise everyone will have to deal with him.
But the others cannot be saved, and they have to answer to the old man.
Bi Qingwen looked at the pistol in front of him. It was easy to kill yourself. It could be done with just one bullet.
He picked up the pistol and put his trembling hands in front of his temples.
When he ordered Liu Ziyao to kill Yan Tong, he didn't feel anything. When he forced Bian Fuwei to hang himself, he didn't feel anything either.
When he watched Qu Yuanli strangle Jiang Bendong and even ordered Wu Zhenan to be killed, his heart was cold.
But when it was his turn, he couldn't make up his mind.
"This is the tragedy of the chess pieces."
Bi Qingwen shed tears, whether it was regret or not wanting to die like this.
It's true that he is a chess piece. His identity and level are destined not to be a person on the chessboard. The same goes for Deputy Chief Hu. However, he is a high-level player. Even if he does not jump out of the chessboard, at least the chess players will protect him.
He became a chess piece that was ruthlessly abandoned.
Chu Lingyun led dozens of people to the minister's office building, which was guarded by soldiers who arrived in advance.
Chen Mutu gave the order. Chen Mutu was also very angry when he learned what happened here. He was not in Nanjing, but he was still the chief of general staff and the number one person in the Ministry of National Defense.
Although General Bai is a minister, he is a mascot. The real power of the Ministry of National Defense lies in the hands of the Chief of General Staff, Chen Mutu.
Chen Mutu gave the order and everyone cooperated.
Chu Lingyun took Fang Like directly upstairs.
Five people from the minister's office were involved in the case. Bian Fuwei is dead, Jiang Bendong is in trouble, and the remaining ones are Bi Qingwen, Qu Yuanli and another director.
"You go and catch Qu Yuanli."
Chu Lingyun told Fang Like that Qu Yuanli was the person Fang Like found and if he was asked to catch him, the entire credit would go to him.
Qu Yuanli's rank is not low, and combined with his previous achievements, it is enough for Fang Like to be promoted to one rank.
"yes."
Fang Like was very happy and took people directly to Qu Yuanli's office. Another person asked Zhao Dong to arrest him, while Chu Lingyun took people to Bi Qingwen's side.
Hearing the footsteps outside the door, Bi Qingwen understood that he had no time to hesitate.
If you don't die now, you won't be able to escape even if you are caught.
Gritting his teeth, Bi Qingwen pulled the trigger.
"boom."
The door was knocked open, and several members of the action team rushed in and pushed Bi Qingwen, who was holding a pistol with a stunned look on his face, down on the table.
Bi Qingwen's pistol didn't go off. In his confusion, he forgot to turn on the safety.
He didn't die, he was captured alive.
Seeing Bi Qingwen's appearance, Chu Lingyun breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that Bi Qingwen was not dead. Apart from the three people who could not be dealt with, Bi Qingwen was the most important person among the people arrested this time.
"Wow……"
Bi Qingwen, who was tied up, cried loudly. He understood why he did not die and was stupid enough to commit suicide with a gun without safety.
He felt lucky again in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't die and could live for a few more days.
This feeling of wandering between life and death and narrowly escaping from death caused Bi Qingwen to completely collapse. He could no longer control his emotions and burst into tears on the spot.
Chu Lingyun has arrested many people, some who were paralyzed and unable to move, some who resisted strongly, and some who cursed loudly.
There are indeed fewer people who lose their composure like Bi Qingwen.
"take away."
Chu Lingyun shouted, it was a good thing that Bi Qingwen was captured alive, he knew the most.
Chu Lingyun personally led people to search the office, and his home would not be left behind. All the money Bi Qingwen had earned over the years would be copied out. Unfortunately, Ni Loach was not here. If Ni Loach was here, he would not even think of hiding a single copper plate.
"Director, we've caught him."
Fang Like and Zhao Dong were equally successful. Qu Yuanli didn't even know that his superiors had abandoned them. Bi Qingwen couldn't save himself and made the difficult decision to commit suicide. How could he have the energy to take care of him anymore.
The two were kidnapped and taken away. People in the minister's office poked their heads out and looked at them.
Bi Qingwen has always been strong here, and many people know that he has done many bad things, but he has a tough background and many people dare not speak out.
Seeing that Bi Qingwen was unlucky this time, many people were secretly happy.
The arrests were basically smooth, except for two people who resisted and were eventually captured alive. There were no casualties among the people in the inspection room.
There were a total of thirty-five people on Wu Zhenan's list excluding him, three were removed, three were dead, one was missing, and all the remaining twenty-eight people were arrested.
At the same time, Shanghai, Suzhou, Yangzhou and other places.
The Secrecy Bureau and the Military Intelligence Bureau launched attacks one after another.
Forty-five merchants from various places colluded with Wu Zhen'an and more than 500 people were arrested. In Nanjing, 17 merchants and almost 200 people were arrested.
Those who can supply goods to the Ministry of National Defense are all large merchants.
Even people who didn't know anything knew that something big was going on.
Security Bureau, Qi Limin hung up the phone and sat there in silence.
Chu Lingyun has been in the limelight. After this time, the inspectors in the inspection room will completely break through their responsibilities. They will no longer only supervise the intelligence system, but will also have case-handling powers for people from other departments.
The so-called Foreign Finance Inspection Committee before was just targeting them.
Now available for everyone.
However, there is a premise for all this, which must be led by the eldest son and supported by the old man, otherwise the inspection office will still be restricted to the intelligence system.
Qi Limin understood that with Chu Lingyun's intelligence, he would not let go of such an opportunity.
So what if the inspection office is low-level?
Look at the cases they handled this time. Who were they arrested?
If it weren't for the old man's need for balance, he could capture more people and have higher levels.
Wu Zhenan, who was considered dead, had several general-level officers killed by the inspection room this time.
The Inspection Office became famous again.
Qi Limin is willing to see Chu Lingyun promoted. This kind of name is not a good one. The better he does, the more people will be wary of him. In the future, Chu Lingyun will become a thorn in the eyes of more people, and more people will want to get rid of him.
many.
The pressure on the Secrecy Bureau can be reduced somewhat.
If Chu Lingyun is really eliminated by others, he will definitely open champagne to celebrate.
For Chu Lingyun, being caught is not the end. What follows is tedious interrogation and investigation.
The inspection room only had one interrogation room and three simple cells, which were completely insufficient. Except for the three people in the minister's office, everyone else was assigned to the Second Military Intelligence Bureau for interrogation. The Second Military Intelligence Bureau was also busy.
There was nothing wrong with them this time, but because of their close relationship with the inspection office, they made a lot of money. Instead of just drinking some broth, they also ate meat.
"Bi Qingwen, where is Jiang Bendong?"
The eldest son, Director Zheng and Chu Lingyun came together to interrogate this most important person. Bi Qingwen was not tied up, but sat there with a blank expression.
"died."
"How did you die?"
"Qu Yuanli led others to strangle him to death. Qu Yuanli buried his body. I don't know where exactly it is."
Bi Qingwen did not hide it. His superiors had given up on him, and he understood his final outcome.
"Where is the escaped guard from the Reserve Cadre Bureau and the murderer who killed Wu Zhenan?" Chu Lingyun asked again.
"The guard ran away. The people I sent wanted to get rid of him on the road. Unexpectedly, he was very clever and ran away. He was not found later. There have been so many things recently. I have no time to pay attention to him. Kill Wu Zhenan
The people were dealt with by my close men."
Chu Lingyun was slightly startled, and the eldest son was even more stunned.
The guard of the eldest son who deliberately left a gun for Liu Ziyao to kill actually managed to escape without dying.
He was really lucky. Except for him, no one else had a good outcome this time.
The eldest son will not let him go, and will definitely send people to continue searching until he is captured.
The eldest son will not be merciful to those who betray him.
"Tell me everything you have done in the past."
The eldest son asked in person, and Bi Qingwen never thought of resisting. He said whatever he asked, but did not mention Chief Hu at all.
Chu Lingyun didn't ask, and Director Zheng just kept sitting and didn't speak from the beginning to the end.
It doesn't matter whether Bi Qingwen talks about Deputy Chief Hu or not. The old man has no intention of dealing with him. If he does, it will only cause trouble for them. The closing report will be changed when the time comes.
Bi Qingwen didn't say anything because he was afraid that Deputy Chief Hu would attack his family.
Qu Yuanli was equally happy. After knowing that Bi Qingwen had confessed everything, he understood that the people above him had completely abandoned them.
Ask me whatever you want, including all the bad things I have done with Bi Qingwen over the years.
The interrogation of other people went equally well. With so many people arrested this time, especially Bi Qingwen, their psychological defenses were completely broken. Moreover, there were not many strong bones among these people.
After setting up camp, General Bai left in a hurry.
The old man looked very ugly. He originally wanted to use this opportunity to ask General Lee to give up the election of vice president, but he didn't expect that they would not agree to it.
General Bai and the others are not stupid, they understand what they need.
If the old man really wants to punish the person who made the mistake, let him punish him.
"Boss, Deputy Chief Hu may be in trouble this time."
On the way back in the car, the secretary asked cautiously. General Bai was still angry and snorted: "He asked for it. I told him not to be so greedy. Look at what he did."
"I heard that it was Chu Lingyun who found out this time. He didn't save any face for you."
The secretary said again that he had a good relationship with Vice-Chang Hu and would definitely stand by Vice-Chang Hu this time.
Chu Lingyun and General Bai do have a certain relationship. I thought that Chu Lingyun would be a high-ranking person and would not go so far in the investigation, but I didn't expect that I would directly investigate everything.
He didn't even say hello.
"He is responsible."
General Bai shook his head. Chu Lingyun really didn't give him any face this time. He never made a phone call from beginning to end.
Chief Hu was his man and he found him out directly.
Generally speaking, the old man will not let one of his own people serve as his deputy, but General Bai's minister has no real power. Even the minister does not have much power, let alone the deputy minister.
The real power is in Chen Mutu's hands, which is equivalent to the old man's hands.
The secretary didn't say anything anymore, just click on some words.
"Appointment."
When the old man set up camp, Tang Boyuan had arrived long ago. As soon as General Bai left, he walked in immediately.
"Look at the good things you've done."
The old man shouted angrily and threw the document in front of Tang Boyuan. Tang Boyuan carefully picked it up and looked at it for a few times before immediately lowering his head.
It's the eldest young master again, and it's Chu Lingyun again, they really deserve to die.
After the war, Tang Boyuan wanted the wealth of Shiyuan Trading Company, but the eldest son and Chu Lingyun joined forces with Chen Mutu to arrange a deal. After all, he belonged to the old man. Although he was fine in the end, Chu Lingyun took away the Shiyuan Trading Company.
As a high-ranking commander, he had never fought against a division-level officer in the army at that time, which made him lose face.
He and Chu Lingyun had a grudge over this.
"Commissioning, I was wrong."
Tang Boyuan did not dare to deny that the evidence was conclusive. He was the highest-ranking person involved in the corruption case at the General Affairs Office of the Ministry of National Defense.
Hu Cichang knew that he had no real power and wanted to make money, so he dragged the money-grubbing Tang Boyuan into the water.
In fact, when Chu Lingyun first learned about the list, he guessed that the old man would not deal with him.
In May of this year, Tang Boyuan was responsible for the Battle of Meng Lianggu. The old man was furious and dismissed Tang Boyuan for investigation. As a result, in July, he was made concurrently the deputy commander of the army and even the acting commander.
The commander is a fictitious position with little real power, mainly due to his high rank.
The old man originally wanted to arrange a real job for him at the end of the year. After all, he is his own person. Even if he does too much, the old man cannot really deal with it.
"You're wrong. Just admit it. Don't ask for your job at the end of the year. Go back and reflect."
The old man didn't want to scold him any more and drove him out.
If it weren't for him, he could use Deputy Chief Hu and others to negotiate with General Li, General Bai and others this time. The reason why General Bai dared to refuse so decisively was because not only their people were involved in the case this time, but also Tang Boyuan.
The corruption in the Ministry of National Defense in the military is mostly related to Tang Boyuan, and the amount is staggering.
If the old man really wants to deal with Deputy Chief Hu, he must deal with Tang Boyuan as well.
See if the old man is willing to part with it.
Tang Boyuan returned to his residence with a look of resentment in his eyes.
Not to the old man, but to Chu Lingyun and the eldest son.
These two people seemed to be having trouble with him. It was like this last time in Shanghai, and it was the same this time. They really thought that with the old man protecting them, there was nothing he could do.
But he really has nothing to do now. The fiasco at Meng Lianggu had a great impact on him. He wanted to get back on his feet by the end of the year. But now that it's fine, the old man has suspended the actual job he was going to give him. He doesn't know how long he will have to wait.
Tang Boyuan's resentment towards Chu Lingyun deepened when his own future was at stake.
Chu Lingyun didn't know what happened in the camp, and he wouldn't care how the old man dealt with it, but this corruption case would definitely affect the morale of the frontline troops.
They were fighting with their heads up, but the rear was so greedy that they even extended their hands to their side.
No wonder the food they eat is mediocre and the food they use is not good. What should have been given to them has been corrupted by all the officials.
They wear rich clothes, eat fine food, and live in luxurious villas. Ordinary soldiers and low-level officers have neither enough food nor clothing to keep them warm, and do the most dangerous and tiring work. They are even worse than the dogs of these officials.
.
Under such circumstances, how could they fight sincerely?
The old man had ordered it to be kept secret, but it was impossible to keep this matter a secret.
Chu Lingyun believed that even if he didn't report it, his hometown would still receive several reports, and they would be very detailed.
Chu Lingyun's guess was absolutely correct, and Mr. Ke received four reports.
It's all related to this corruption case in the Ministry of National Defense.
One of them even has a list of all the people involved in the case, including Tang Boyuan.
"These were printed into leaflets, which were mostly seen by the Kuomintang soldiers on the front line, and were used for propaganda in newspapers and radio."
Mr. Ke personally sorted out the corruption in the military and had it printed out as a leaflet. It contained detailed data, especially in Shandong, how much corruption was taken from the military and how it was divided. It was originally going to be
Why are the things given to the soldiers changed in appearance and of inferior quality?
These things are no less than bullets, and they might make some people rebel, or even lead an uprising with their superiors.
If the party loses popular support, they will not be able to let go of these propaganda advantages.
The Red Party does not want to fight, they are all their own people, and they will bear all the losses caused by each battle.
The more people who realize that only the Red Party can save China, the more people who are willing to defect to the light, the less the country will lose.
As for newspapers and radio, it is the corruption of the Ministry of Defense.
If the Party prohibits private circulation of gold and foreign exchange, they themselves trade in gold bars and U.S. dollars.
The amount of corruption they have committed over the years, converted into gold, amounts to millions of taels.
Corrupt officials, absolute corruption.
Chu Lingyun handed over the thick case closing report to the eldest son. Next, he will reward according to his merits. This case closing report is very important.
As a result, before the eldest son sent the report, newspapers in Hong Kong, Shanghai and other places exposed the matter.
The Information Bureau hurriedly intervened.
Mr. Ke was even more shocked when he received the news. Their newspapers had not yet published it, but the Guo Party themselves had already exposed it.
This is just right, as it can protect the comrades who are delivering the information.
"Let brothers have a good rest for a few days."
In the inspection room, Chu Lingyun gave everyone a holiday. Except for the necessary personnel on duty, everyone else had a three-day holiday.
"Thank you, director."
Fang Like responded with a smile. He had gained the most this time. The eldest son had promised him that he would be promoted to colonel this time.
There is also Zhao Dong. Zhao Dong didn’t get much credit this time. He will be promoted next time.
Zheng Guangtao also made some small contributions this time, save it for him, and he can be promoted in the future.
All section chiefs and team leaders in the inspection room will eventually reach the rank of colonel.
The Inspection Office is not a war situation team, and it does not last as long as a war situation team. However, even if it only takes a few years, Chu Lingyun can still develop the inspection room and eventually become his direct descendant.
At least now the inspection room is united, no matter who the person is, they are extremely convinced of him.
Who doesn’t like a superior who can lead them to promotion and wealth?
Others have holidays, but Chu Lingyun doesn't.
The old man is still negotiating with General Li and has not touched Deputy Commander Hu. However, Deputy Commander Hu's minions have been cleaned up a lot and he is very low-key now.
Except for the fourth department, many people in other departments and bureaus were very happy.
The General Affairs Department was investigated, and apart from the people on the list, they were the department with the largest number of arrests.
More than 20 people were arrested.
The director of the department, Qiu Liangyong, was demoted to deputy director due to poor supervision. He has temporary powers as director. Depending on his future performance, if the General Affairs Office can be reinstated, he can be reinstated as director.
Qiu Liangyong did not collude with Wu Zhenan, he did not bother to do these things.
Wu Zhenan has a strong background, so he can't stop him and simply doesn't care.
Wu Zhenan is the subordinate of Vice-Chairman Hu, and behind Vice-Chairman Hu are General Bai and General Li. The power of the Ministry of National Defense is in the hands of Chen Mutu, but most of it is the power to command external operations.
These small matters within them still fall under the jurisdiction of General Bai.
Without even this power, who would want to be the minister?
"Ling Yun, let's go."
The eldest son came to pick up Chu Lingyun. The reward will have to wait until after the holiday. Chu Lingyun now has a new mission.
"Father, we are here."
The eldest son brought Chu Lingyun to the camp. This time, the old man ordered Chu Lingyun to go there.
"Jianfeng, Lingyun, sit down."
The old man didn't look good, and the negotiations with the Guangxi clique were not going well. They understood the old man's concerns and had many good words to say, but they refused to give in on the position of vice president.
The old man wants a deputy who is completely obedient to him and does things for him, rather than letting his competitors do it and be the one who restrains him.
"Ling Yun, I asked you to come here because I want to continue to work hard for you. My people here will investigate in secret."
The eldest son also made such a request. Everyone in the Reserve Cadre Bureau asked Chu Lingyun to investigate secretly to see if there was anyone else's informant.
This time they can kill Yan Tong, who can guarantee that they will not attack him?
The eldest son also attaches great importance to safety.
"Principal, I'll go get ready right away."
Chu Lingyun nodded. This was a good opportunity. At least the people around the old man had a clear understanding of the situation. This was very important information.
"Don't worry, you have made great contributions to this case. Do you have any ideas?"
The old man took the initiative to ask. Chu Lingyun had made a lot of contributions in the military command, and he had made continuous contributions in the inspection office, which had reached the point where he couldn't hold him back.
He was considering whether to promote Chu Lingyun.
There is no need to rush into promotion of military rank. As for the position, let Chu Lingyun take up the vacant position of deputy director. In any case, he has been promoted.
"Be loyal to the principal and do things for the party. Ling Yun doesn't need anything."
Chu Lingyun shook his head and smiled. His words finally made the old man smile. Look, this is a true loyal minister. He obviously has so many achievements and so much money. He would have gotten up early because he understood his difficulties.
Would rather give up these.
"Jianfeng, please remember that in the future, you should give Ling Yun a lot of rewards."
The old man looked at his son. Chu Lingyun was his son's person and the most important talent he left to his son in the future.
These rewards must be given by your son.
"Yes, father."
The eldest son responded hurriedly, but Chu Lingyun refused, and the old man didn't mention the reward again. The slower Chu Lingyun's promotion, the better, but there was one thing that both he and the eldest son ignored.
Chu Lingyun's position has not been promoted, but its importance has increased a lot.
This case handling has once again enhanced the power of the inspection office.
The inspection room is just an ordinary division-level unit below the second hall, but who dares to regard the inspection room as such a small unit now?
Many people treat the inspection office and various departments and bureaus equally.
The Second Military Intelligence Bureau, which is located in the second hall with the Inspection Office, is completely incomparable in terms of status. This time, it is like a follower, more like a subordinate of the Inspection Office.
Chu Lingyun doesn't care about those false reputations, as long as he has real power.
Even if the old man and the eldest son didn't ignore it, they wouldn't care.
Because Chu Lingyun's power was given by them. Chu Lingyun's ability is too strong. If he doesn't control it well, there is a risk of losing control. The power now relies on them and they can take it back at any time. This is the greatest safety.
This is also the situation that the old man wants most.
The investigation of the people around the old man does not require the participation of all the people in the inspection room.
Chu Lingyun only asked Chu Yuan, Fang Like and Jia Changguo to come back, and each of them called back five reliable subordinates to form an investigation team.
Including Chu Lingyun, there are nineteen people in total.
Undercover investigation is different from normal case handling.
The people under investigation cannot be allowed to know their existence, and at the same time, secrets must not be leaked, and all their situations must be understood. People with more brains are needed to do this.
Zheng Guangtao and Shen Hanwen were all excluded.
Shen Hanwen returned to the Secrecy Bureau. He had made meritorious service in the inspection office. Qi Limin had to hold his nose and praise him. It was purely verbal praise. He didn't even get a dime of reward after he returned.
Shen Hanwen doesn't care about this, the inspection office will give it to them and will not treat them badly.
This time, a lot of money was confiscated from the case-handling inspection office. Director Zheng and the eldest son received the largest share, and those who worked on the case also received a large share.
The team leader has promised everyone long ago that rewards will be distributed to everyone when they return from vacation.
The Military Intelligence Bureau didn't need to give it to them. The Military Intelligence Bureau helped handle the case this time and already made a lot of money.
The team leader gave them the most lucrative General Affairs Office. Shao Wenchang, the director of the Second Military Intelligence Bureau, has been walking lightly these days.
The credit and wealth he gained this time were almost in vain for him.
"I called you here because I have a top-secret mission. This mission is very important and must be kept secret. Let's talk about the ugly things first. If you can't quit now, anyone who leaks the secret will be executed by the whole family."
Chu Lingyun said lightly, eighteen people, you look at me, I look at you.
Chu Yuan was the only one who knew the mission, and he smiled secretly in his heart.
The secret will definitely be leaked, and the leaker is their director. The director's acting skills are getting better and better, and there is no way those movie stars can compare with the director.
"Director, don't worry, I promise we won't leak any secrets."
Chu Yuan was the first to express his stance, while Jia Changguo and Fang Like also expressed their stance that they would not quit, let alone reveal any secrets.
Especially Jia Changguo, the rise of Fang Like put a lot of pressure on him.
Originally, Fang Like was the director of the department, but he didn't care. He was the director's confidant. However, the director transferred Zhao Dong, and now he looked at Fang Like in a different light. He, the chief of the first section, suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
He had always done the best job in the past, but this time he was overwhelmed by Fang Like.
Chu Lingyun dared to reuse Fang Like, which impressed Jia Changguo very much.
Everyone knew that Fang Like was sent by the director and was not the director at all. However, Fang Like was smart, performed well and worked hard, so the director gave him a chance.
And he gave more and more, and he treated Fang Like no less than any of their confidants.
The use of Fang Like is enough to prove that the director is a very magnanimous person. As long as he has the ability, he will never be afraid of not having the opportunity to show it in the inspection room.
With great pressure comes great motivation. Jia Changguo secretly vowed that he must work harder than usual on this mission and strive to surpass Fang Like.
He doesn't compare with Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan never fights over these things and always works diligently.
"Very good, here is the list. Let's investigate the people on it first."
Chu Lingyun divided them into three groups and gave them forty lists for each group, totaling one hundred and twenty people.
The number of guards for the old man cannot be so small, but these are the guards who can be closest to the old man. They have good backgrounds, and many of them are even from the old man's hometown.
"Director, what aspects of their investigation are you mainly investigating?"
Fang Like asked first. At this time, he and Jia Changguo had not yet realized what kind of task this was.
"Whether they have any foreign wealth, banks, banks, real estate, land, business and cash must be checked, whether they have women, whether they have special hobbies, and who they usually interact with more. When investigating, it is not just them themselves, but also their
Family members undergo the same investigation, including grandparents, parents, and children, as well as their brothers and sisters."
Chu Lingyun said slowly, Jia Changguo and Fang Like, who were reading the information, raised their heads together.
Previous investigations have basically focused on the individual. This time, not only the individual but also his family members must be investigated?
And the scope of the family is so wide, including ancestors and even brothers and sisters?
I still checked as carefully as I did.
Who on earth has to be investigated in such detail?
"Let's watch it first and talk about it later."
Chu Lingyun did not explain. The file was very detailed. After reading several copies, Fang Like looked up first.
"Director, what do they do?"
Their positions are not in the files, but their resumes are. They are all soldiers, with good skills and good backgrounds. Some of their fathers are even important generals around the chairman of the committee, or important members of the government.
Normally, the development of such people will not be bad. Since we want to check, we must know their current work. What is strange is that this point is missing from the file.
"Attendant Guard."
Chu Lingyun's words made Fang Like tremble violently.
Jia Changguo even raised his head, extremely shocked.
They finally understood why the director had said it was so serious in advance and wanted to investigate in such detail.
These people are the force that protects the old man.
Such people are usually not allowed to be touched, let alone investigated. Even if they are investigated, it is a higher-level department. This time the investigation task actually fell on the inspection office?
The two people immediately understood that it was the eldest son's matter that had touched the old man, so they handed over this special task to their director.
"Look, don't think so much first."
Chu Lingyun stood up and left them looking through the files in the conference room.
They were given the opportunity to quit before, but they didn't take it. Now that they have received the file and are looking through it, they can no longer quit.
"Don't think too much about it. This is a very important task. Look carefully."
Jia Changguo immediately ordered his men. This task was important and also their opportunity. If they did it well, the old man might remember their names.
If you can be remembered by the old man, won't you have a bright future in the future?
Not to mention others, understand what kind of opportunity this is.
There are six people in each team, and each of the five team members is divided into eight files. The team leader is responsible for summarizing, first understanding their basic situation, and then conducting investigation one by one based on these basic situations.
People will have weaknesses, but those who have no weaknesses are saints.
Including these guards.
Most people have three weaknesses: power, money and women.
They have no shortage of power. Who dares to offend the old man's close friends?
If you want to do something, if you say hello, almost no one will say no, and no one would dare to say no.
Money is the key, and women.
But it is not absolute. In addition to these three categories, there are a few people who can also become weaknesses for others because of their special habits.
Therefore, you must check everything carefully.
After reading the files, the three team leaders will formulate an investigation plan.
Everyone must be investigated, but in order. Those who seem to be more likely to be targeted should be placed first and investigated more carefully.
Forty people may not sound like a lot, but if you include their families, it is definitely a huge number. This time will take a long time, and every investigation is not that easy.
All the investigation results were finally summarized in Chu Lingyun. Even the eldest son could not participate. Chu Lingyun reported directly to the old man.
And they can only investigate and cannot have any contact with these people.
In fact, by doing this, the old man has shown his trust in his son and Chu Lingyun. After all, he knows the situation of these people. If they want to do something, it is easier to target them.
They read the information in detail for a whole day, and it took another day to make the plan. On the third day, the three plans were delivered to Chu Lingyun.
Thanks to Ji Xingchen for the reward of 1,500 starting coins, and thank you to the leader Pipitu for another 1,000 starting coin reward.
