Su Tiannan and other prisoners left Zhadao Prison and arrived in District 1 by boat to participate in community labor jointly organized by the prison and the local police system, as well as media interviews.
In District 1, major prisons will organize community labor services from time to time. The purpose is to set up typical model prisoners in the prison, strengthen internal ideological management, and also do some publicity on the law. Of course, the selected prisoners also have a strict mentality
Those who are rated must have a good attitude and perform well before they will be taken out.
You beat eight people in the cell a day, and if the prison guard says something to you and you spit in the other person's mouth, this kind of person will never have the chance to get out.
In fact, Su Tiannan's election is definitely an exception, because although his case is not serious, it is the object of focus, and logically it should not be brought up. However, the first district is a state legislative system, and each district is willing to offend the higher-ups.
Just be a bird. If you don't want to be a bird, you can love whoever you want. The local power is extremely powerful, so the old Chinese man in the prison can help him run it out.
…
Hanoi time, it’s around five o’clock in the evening.
Gui Mengjun stood in the office, looking at Mingming with a helpless expression, and said in his hometown dialect: "Can you stop making trouble? She and I are already engaged."
"Gee, look at you, you're just joking and you're taking it seriously. It's boring." Mingming chuckled, stroking her hair and replied, "Even if we are not destined to be together, we are still best friends."
Gui Mengjun looked at her and sighed and replied: "Oh, I really can't do anything to you."
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, you can get busy." Mingming lowered her head and glanced at her watch: "I will attend a condolence event later."
Mingming's surname is Fan, and her Fan family was doing business in Vietnam before the year of the Christian era, and was considered an aborigine of the capital of Hanoi. After the year of the Christian era, the triangle area merged, and the Pu family regime rose. The Fan family had several conflicts with the Pu family.
marriage.
The most recent one is that Fan Mingming's brother married the legitimate daughter of a branch of the Pu family, so in terms of political relations, the Fan family is closer to the center of power than the Gui family.
What is a side branch of the Pu family? Because Governor Pu Yuan had many brothers and cousins, although the people of his generation are basically gone now, they still have heirs to carry on the family line.
About thirty years ago, Governor Pu Yuan had a cousin named Pu Ming. During the Battle of the Northwest, he used a brigade of troops to confuse the entire battlefield. He was later captured and executed by the Chinese District. This man's youngest daughter
, and married into the Fan family.
After Pu Ming's death, none of the children in his family were very successful, and there were no top political figures. His family's power was somewhat declining, but even so, they were at the level of royal relatives in Lao Sanjiang.
If the Fan family is married to him, it can naturally be considered as a relative of the imperial family. It is precisely because of this relationship that they can have a say in the arms business.
When the governor died of illness, not just ordinary people could participate in condolence meetings and other activities. The reason why Fan Mingming was invited was because of his brother's favor.
Inside the office.
Gui Mengjun smiled and said to Fan Mingming: "Okay, go ahead and I'll call you tomorrow."
"Okay, let's go!" Fan Mingming waved to him, turned and left.
Gui Mengjun glanced at him and immediately took the phone to notify his secretary to pick him up and leave.
In the corridor, Fan Mingming picked up the phone while walking out, and whispered: "It's impossible for him to change his mind."
…
About ten minutes later.
Gui Mengjun got into the commercial vehicle in the company's underground parking lot, looked up at the driver and ordered: "Go to the harbor."
"Okay!" The driver nodded.
After the vehicle left the company, Gui Mengjun sat in a comfortable middle-row seat and sent several text messages with Xiang Jingyang's staff member Xiao Qinglong, talking about the current situation in the capital of Hanoi.
In fact, in this short period of one day, Gui Mengjun felt heavy and a little anxious.
What's heavy is that the spiritual leader of Lao Triangle is no longer here, and Gui Mengjun feels a little sad from the bottom of his heart, because he has always regarded the governor as his idol. This emotion is obviously difficult for people of other ethnic groups to understand.
Apart from the heaviness, the only thing left is anxiety!
In fact, the Gui family's status in the political and business circles of the Old Triangle has been declining in recent years. The reason for this is not because the family patriarch made mistakes in controlling the direction, but because time has dealt a heavy blow to them.
In the early years, Mr. Gui had been clinging to the Pu clique's regime. During the period when the Pu clique's regiments were fighting in the north and south, they provided materials, money and food, and helped manage the local area, and gradually became the top "gentry" under the imperial power.
.
But as Governor Pu's generation grew old and passed away one after another, the Gui family's political connections at the top gradually weakened. Until a few years ago, Mr. Gui's elder brother-in-law also passed away, taking the lead in the old governor's place.
This uncle once held an important position in Governor Pu's General Staff Headquarters and was very prestigious in the military. However, life is cruel and there is no way to reverse it.
My eldest uncle had been retired for six or seven years before his death, and his voice in politics was decreasing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. As soon as people closed their eyes, his family's influence became even lower.
It's not that Gui's father hasn't thought of other ways out, but for a top family, choosing a political relationship is far from as simple as giving some gifts and getting married. Under each power, there are countless branches and vines. It's not that
Anyone who wants to make friends can make friends.
But fortunately, Gui's father-in-law's brother-in-law has always been responsible for communicating with the Chinese region and has certain contacts with many old-school generals in the Southwest Theater of China, so the Gui family took the second path.
From a general perspective, the relationship between the Old Triangle and the Chinese District is an iron alliance. The former is the younger brother and the latter is the older brother. In the past 40 years, both sides have been in a state of fighting each other in terms of political and military stances.
.
Therefore, a series of policies in the Chinese region will affect this area. Making friends with the top dignitaries in the Chinese region, re-selecting political figures, and increasing the family's political weight through external influence can be regarded as a curved road to saving the country.
Through the efforts of Gui's father in his later years and the political wisdom of Gui Mengjun, the Gui family has indeed become closer and closer to the Chinese region, and they have also used this power to completely take control of the arms business.
But during this period, the Gui family also had the opportunity to develop a second political route, which was to marry into the Fan family to consolidate their local political relationships and once again enhance the family's influence in the form of family unity.
Gui's father was also someone who insisted on taking this route, but Gui Mengjun had a different idea. He felt that instead of betting on both sides, it would be better to cling to China's thighs, stand firm, play the role of a political broker, and make big bets.
A future.
The father and son had several conversations, and finally Gui's father was persuaded by Gui Mengjun and listened to his advice.
This is why Gui Mengjun wants to marry the third sister, because the key to clinging to China's thighs lies in Dragon City!
Of course, apart from political factors, Gui Mengjun also really likes Miaomiao. She is very similar to his first love, but there are differences in personality.
In this way, it will be a win-win situation for Guimengjun, but the relationship with the Fan family will weaken.
But politics and business are like this, and you may face completely incompatible trade-offs at any moment.
On the car.
Gui Mengjun looked at the phone and whispered to his secretary: "Keep an eye on Fan Mingming, this woman... once she goes crazy, no one can stop her."
"Yes." The secretary nodded.
…
Around the Coast Guard Hotel.
Four semi-trucks were parked on the side of the road. A man spat yellow phlegm on the ground and asked in his native dialect: "Do you want to do it?!"?
