"Team leader, this is information about Yang Xiaotao."
In the office, Director Cao stood aside. He looked particularly capable with short ear-length hair. He was wearing Braji imported from the alliance. His graceful figure was full of middle-aged charm.
In front of the desk, there is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man who is reviewing documents. He is wearing a Chinese tunic suit and looks very serious.
There is a book with a gray cover placed in front of the table. On top is a red tower with a five-pointed star on the top. Below is the title of the book written in traditional Chinese, 'Miscellaneous Notes of Su Jianwen'.
Behind him, there is a plaque hanging with the words "The revolution will not stop, it will never end".
"Yang Xiaotao?"
The middle-aged man put down the pen in his hand, then picked up a thick pile of information on the table and flipped through it at will.
The top part is Yang Xiaotao’s origin, and the bottom part is about Yang Xiaotao’s life trajectory, and then there are interpersonal relationships, including things in Yangjiacun, including his wife Ran Qiuye, and the situation of the Ran family.
It's a thick pile. If it weren't for special personnel, there would be no way to investigate this information.
After a while, the man put the information aside and had a general idea. Then he picked up the coffee cup and took a sip before asking softly, "Is this the Yang Xiaotao who is studying in Hongxing Machinery Factory?"
"Yes, that's him."
Director Cao pursed his lips with great force on his face, and then relaxed his lips, looking very calm.
But in my heart, there is always a lingering resentment.
Thinking about the scene that day when a group of people pointed guns at the machine factory, when had she ever suffered such a loss?
That time, although Yang Xiaotao did not appear, he was the culprit who made her look embarrassed.
It is also a stumbling block on the road of their collective leadership of the revolution.
"Zhang Zhang, last time you asked me to go to the machinery factory to investigate the learning situation, these people only understood the picosecond, they shouted loudly, but they didn't have the seeds of revolution in their hearts."
"After my investigation, I found that the initiator of everything was this Yang Xiaotao. He had serious style problems in life, and his life was rotten in the yard. He relied on some contributions at work and was domineering in the machinery factory and even other branches.
Fu, it’s very corrupt.”
"More importantly, it's strange that such a young person with little qualifications is in a high position. In the end, he has no protection and no one to support him."
Director Cao said meaningfully, and Team Leader Zhang stood up from his seat, walked to the side, picked up a spoon, made another cup of coffee, and then asked, "Sugar or milk?"
"Add sugar, I like sweet."
Team leader Zhang hummed, put the sugar in the cup, and handed it over.
Director Cao quickly caught it and stirred it gently with a spoon.
In the room, the aroma of coffee continued to spread. The two of them leaned at the desk, each holding a cup and tasting it gently.
"I know this person before."
Team leader Zhang said and looked at Director Cao, "As you said, it is impossible for this person to become an important role at such an age without someone behind him."
"And this person is not just a few old guys from the First Machinery Department."
Team Leader Zhang put down his cup and stared at a portrait on the wall, which showed the heads of four characters.
His eyes swept over him, his eyes hazy.
Director Cao naturally understood the meaning of his words and put down his cup accordingly.
"Team leader, I have some news here."
"This time, someone from the alliance sent an invitation letter to Yang Xiaotao, asking him to go to the alliance to participate in a research study."
"I think this is an opportunity."
Hearing this, Team Leader Zhang looked back, "Seriously?"
"Well, someone under Team Leader Jiang told me."
"You also know that Team Leader Jiang is very concerned about the rise of the machinery factory."
After Director Cao finished speaking, Team Leader Zhang showed a smile on his face, "How can she be paying attention? She really wants to hold the machinery factory in her hands."
"Having this machinery factory is equivalent to having a finger on the pulse of the machinery department, thereby affecting the country's machinery production."
"It's a pity that the old guys in the First Machinery Department are all smelly and tough, but they are united like Tietong. She can only take roundabout measures."
After hearing this, Director Cao showed approval on his face, drank the coffee in his cup, and then smiled, "So, whether Yang Xiaotao goes or not this time, as long as he receives this invitation, we will have a reason to arrest him.
"
A satisfied smile appeared on Team Leader Zhang's face, "You do this."
"Don't worry, it will definitely be done."
Ring ring ring
The phone rang. Team Leader Zhang looked at the green phone on the table and frowned slightly.
This is a special communication channel between the four of them, but under normal circumstances, this phone will not ring.
And every time it rings, it means something important has happened.
"Hey, it's me, Lao Zhang."
"Um!"
"I understand and I will continue."
Team Leader Zhang hung up the phone, then looked at Team Leader Cao aside, picked up the coffee cup again, and said softly, "I just received a call."
"The invitation was returned."
Director Cao suddenly raised his head, "Who is it?"
Team Leader Zhang looked at the portrait on the wall again, and Director Cao gritted his teeth. One second he was showing his loyalty, but he didn't want to have someone take the piss out of him the next second.
The only sound in the room was the sound of spoons clinking against cups, which was extremely muffled.
"Actually, we only need to know whether it is or not. The result, yes or no, is not important."
Team Leader Zhang drank up the slightly cooled coffee in the cup, and the bitter taste in his mouth made him more awake.
Director Cao slowly raised his head, then revealed two small dimples on his face, "Team leader, I know what to do."
...
"Chief! You are regretting your move!"
In the office, Yang Xiaotao sat in front of the chessboard, watching the old man across from him snatch the red rook from his hand, put it on the chessboard, and then moved his black horse back to its original place. His movements were smoother than pulling the bolt of a gun.
"One step of regret, the last step."
Mr. Zhang said with a smile, and shamelessly moved the fired cannon back, staring down at the chessboard in deep thought.
Yang Xiaotao glanced at the chessboard and knew the outcome clearly in his mind.
He only used half of his chariots, horses and artillery, but he messed up the opponent. He estimated that he would be able to kill the opponent in about ten moves.
This cannot mean how good I am at chess, I can only say that my opponent is really good at it.
After looking at Mr. Zhang who was pulling his hair, Yang Xiaotao felt much less worried.
In the middle of the afternoon, after having dinner with Director Wang, Director Wang found a room to sleep and rest. After all, so much blood had been drawn.
Yang Xiaotao found a place by the window in the conference room and started reading. Although he didn't know why he was not allowed to leave, he settled for it once he came.
Anyway, the communication with the outside world has not been interrupted, and we can also contact the machinery factory.
There's no point in being anxious, so I'll just read here for a while.
While Yang Xiaotao was reading, a person walked in from outside.
Yang Xiaotao took a look and saw that it was Mr. Zhang whom he had met last time.
Get up quickly, go forward to greet you, and ask about the situation.
Mr. Zhang was not surprised that Yang Xiaotao came over and explained the situation. He was the one who conveyed the order not to let Yang Xiaotao leave.
Yang Xiaotao wanted to ask the reason, but Mr. Zhang shook his head and said it was an order from his superiors and said nothing else.
Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao panicked. Someone who could be Mr. Zhang's superior had a big background.
I was thinking that with the current situation, someone might start targeting him or the machinery factory.
Or just protect yourself.
For the former, what leverage do you have?
After thinking for a while, Yang Xiaotao felt that there was no clue. Even if there was, Yang Xiaotao believed that the people from the First Machinery Department would not watch.
But if it's the latter, there's something wrong with being protected yourself.
Who is it, targeting yourself?
Yang Xiaotao was a little unsure about what role Mr. Zhang played in this.
My thoughts are a little confused.
Perhaps because he saw that Yang Xiaotao was a little nervous, after some polite remarks, Mr. Zhang asked the guard to bring him chess and asked Yang Xiaotao to play with him.
Yang Xiaotao didn't want to play chess, but he couldn't refuse the opponent after he had already arranged it, so he sat across from him, listening to the old man's words to start the game, jump the horse, and deal with it.
But after a while, Yang Xiaotao gradually figured it out.
No matter what the other party's purpose is, he can only exploit them as they see fit.
It’s useless to think so much!
After thinking about it, Yang Xiaotao simply stopped thinking about it and concentrated on playing chess.
At first, Yang Xiaotao dealt with it cautiously, but when he made the move, he considered many aspects. Especially when the other party made a move, he would think carefully about why he made such a move.
But after playing two games, Yang Xiaotao no longer had such thoughts.
It's up to you how the other party goes.
He could see that the old man had no reason at all.
Just play whatever you want.
As a result, a game of chess played faster and faster, almost every five minutes.
The result is the same, Yang Xiaotao wins.
But even so, the old man's chess addiction did not diminish and he insisted on Yang Xiaotao continuing to play.
Really, he is both good and fun-loving.
Yang Xiaotao couldn't bear to abuse the opponent anymore, so in the end he only used half of the chess pieces to deal with it.
"General!"
snap
Yang Xiaotao set up his hindsight, and the old man opened his mouth wide, wanting to regret the move, but the last sentence was still in his ears, so he could only shake his head helplessly.
"You are so smart, kid. No wonder you can come up with so many weird things."
Mr. Zhang said helplessly, picked up the military green enamel jar on the side and took a sip of cold water.
Yang Xiaotao tidied up the chessboard and prepared to kill.
"If you don't win, if you don't win, you lose every time. Can't you respect the old and love the young and let me take the lead?"
Mr. Zhang said and waved his hands, imitating morality.
Yang Xiaotao smiled, "Isn't that a small concession?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the other half of the chess pieces that were barely moving.
Mr. Zhang scratched his head and sighed helplessly.
"You're such a mean-spirited kid, I really don't know how you got it!"
He muttered, and then asked, "I heard that you have developed a, what kind of reactive armor?"
"Tell me about it!"
Yang Xiaotao put down the chessboard and then looked at Mr. Zhang.
"Nothing, just armor!"
Yang Xiaotao said easily, his heart moved.
"Hey, you kid, stop fooling me here and pretend I don't know!"
Mr. Zhang was angry after hearing this, "The news about Wang Huzhu has spread, good thing, you are just thinking about others, right?"
"After all, we were the ones who worked together to win Han Xuanfeng back then. Can't you just think about me?"
Yang Xiaotao rolled his eyes, "Chief, what you said is that I usually don't know where you are?"
"I have good things, but I can't find you!"
Mr. Zhang was choked back after hearing all the words, and then shook his head, "Okay, that's what it is."
"Now tell me, what is the use of that thing?"
"Why did Wang Beard even sell his car?"
Yang Xiaotao leaned on the table at the back, but did not answer in a hurry, "Chief, do you really want to know?"
"Nonsense, otherwise why would I ask?"
"Then tell me who asked me to stay here."
"Hey, you are dishonest."
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath and said, "Chief, if I don't figure it out, this will be really unreliable."
Mr. Zhang stared at Yang Xiaotao for a while, and the two looked at each other without giving in at all.
"Ha ha!"
"Okay, let me tell you."
"The one who asked you to be here is the one from the West Garden!"
"Don't worry now."
In an instant, Yang Xiaotao's tense body relaxed completely, almost lying on the table, and he lost his previous seriousness.
"You told me earlier, you scared me to death!"
Seeing Yang Xiaotao's change of appearance in an instant, and his relaxed expression, Mr. Zhang was amused.
"Okay, you can stay here if you are asked to do so. You just happen to play chess with me. There are not many people who can play chess with me normally!"
Yang Xiaotao curled his lips after hearing this, and his face showed helplessness again.
Although he doesn't hate being tortured, he doesn't want to be tortured here either!
Especially since the other party is a great person, if you make him angry...
