Chapter 179 Inertia

Late at night, "Wang's House" in Anxi City.

In the study, Lu Ming paced slowly, thinking about the chemical plant in the suburbs.

There are also changes in Longbei Province.

In fact, no secret military information was sent here. He was "Section Chief Wang" and lived the life of an ordinary household registration policeman.

But when I think about the problems in the Northern Territory, I seem to come here habitually.

The chemical plant is actually a comprehensive fertilizer plant. The explosion occurred in its ammonia synthesis workshop. The explosion was caused by the stockpiled raw materials. It was caused by improper human operation. According to preliminary investigations, it was not an act of sabotage by hostile forces.

The investor will be heavily fined, not to mention compensation for casualties, but also related pollution control costs and punitive fines.

Those responsible will also be prosecuted.

In fact, the investor "Longyue Chemical Group", Huaxia Group owns 18% of the shares and is also one of the major shareholders.

For investors, this kind of accident is definitely what the major shareholders hate the most. Not to mention human lives, from a purely economic point of view, the heavy losses are their own pockets, but they still have to be severely punished, so that they can be punished.

The management is more heartbroken and pays more attention to production safety.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and Bai Narcissus came in. She was wearing an elegant peach-white satin plum-blossom buttoned coat and short skirt, revealing Bai Shengsheng's two slender legs. She wore embroidered milky white soft-soled leather shoes, which combined the beauty of classical elegance and modern beauty.

The combination is just right.

"Have your relatives and friends in Long'an taken it over? They haven't been affected by the war, right?" Lu Ming asked.

"Yes, we all came to Anxi. Thank you, Master." Bai Narcissus is in a good mood recently and becomes more and more beautiful because she met her family.

Of course, neither her family nor her close friends who accepted her persuasion and came to Anxi do not know her true current situation. They only know that she is married here and her life is very stable.

Lu Ming felt slightly strange when he heard this pretty little beautiful woman calling him "Master". Since he gave Bai Narcissus the status of "female queen", at Bai Narcissus' initiative, the names of several women in the house gradually changed to him.

Became the "master".

Qing'e, Hongling, etc., who is closest to me, is not called "master", not "master". This kind of title just feels familiar.

In the Western Regions or other frontier areas, those who grew up with a slave mentality are called "master" differently.

But being called "Master" by women with modern ideas such as Bai Narcissus, the Kan sisters, Pei Wanjun, etc. is another feeling.

As for the civil war in northern Long'an, the war that broke out between Ren Zhonglin's clique and Sun's clique did not reach Long'an, the provincial capital.

The Sun family originally hoped that the principality would send troops to intervene, because Ren Zhonglin had been on both sides of the fence and had a history of secret contact with the Japanese.

But he only sent a special envoy to mediate, but now the two sides are jealous, and it seems difficult to end without distinguishing who is superior and who is inferior.

After thinking about it, Lu Ming said: "There will be a dinner party later. It doesn't matter if you accompany me. Even if Corey and Xiao Liu insist on inviting me, he and his wife will treat us together, so I have to bring a female family member with me."

"Yes." Bai Shuixian's pretty eyes flashed, she secretly looked at Lu Ming's expression, and said, "Your Highness, Wanjun happens to be on vacation these two days, how about asking her to accompany you? She often walks out and communicates with the people who work with you.

, she might be more decent and not leak anything."

Lu Ming nodded: "Whatever."

"Okay, then I'll tell her!" Bai Narcissus' pretty face showed joy and she hurried away.

Lu Ming was slightly surprised to see her joy, and then he understood that Bai Shuixian was a sister from No. 1 who tried her best to help her.

She is gifted, so in Bai Shuixian's view, the sisters in Courtyard No. 1 are all one, and she hopes to make as many sisters in Courtyard No. 1 be loved by her as possible.

In Courtyard No. 1, she is the eldest sister, along with Pei's Wanjun, Zou's Xiying, Kan's sisters and Shangguan Yusuo.

As for the eldest sister of Courtyard No. 2, Becky, as a Westerner, she obviously does not have the awareness that Courtyard No. 2 and Courtyard No. 1 are in a competitive relationship.

Nowadays, there is still Courtyard No. 4, which is the Fourth Western Lady, but Audrey went to the Western Regions.

Margaret and Britney invested in and operated a hotel together. The seven-story hotel that was originally owned by local dignitaries was confiscated and auctioned. They bought it, renovated it, opened it, and renamed it the "Lady Western Hotel".

He was featured in the local media and became a topic of conversation after dinner, and his business was also very good.

Kate didn't like doing business and felt bored, so she took a class and passed the local postal officer exam. She drove a sports car to and from get off work every day, and was appointed deputy director of the Jinxiu District Post Office.

This is really due to her ability, multi-lingual talent, not to mention the world she has seen, and it turns out that her husband in Shengjing is the boss who monopolizes the local postal system. Her knowledge of the postal system is not ordinary people's.

Comparable.

Although he is obviously just here for fun and does not rely on this salary to support his family at all, he is serious and responsible in his work, and he is simply a living sign of the diverse talents of the local postal system. That is why he was specially appointed as the deputy director of the district office. Of course,

The district office has added postmen, totaling a dozen employees.

In Lu Ming's "royal residence" in Anxi, the only ones who can really be regarded as working outside are Kate and Pei Shiwanjun.

There are two cars in the garage at the back just for the two of them. They are both small sports cars of the same model. They support the domestically produced "Pioneer" of Montenegro's No. 1 Automobile Factory. Although its performance is far inferior to the Snow Dragon series supercars of Nix Automotive, they are

There are special sports cars for women with bright colors. The Xuelong series does not specifically target the female market. After all, although there are many women driving in developed cities today, the usual customers are still men.

Today, Pei Wanjun is driving, and Lu Ming is sitting in the passenger seat, driving slowly down the long street of Anshan.

There are not many cars on the street, but pedestrians also have no sense of avoidance. There are many pedestrians walking side by side in the middle of the road, and rickshaws, horse-drawn carriages, etc. also run struttingly in the middle of the road.

Therefore, the car can only drive very slowly.

However, although she drives a flamboyant sports car, Pei Wanjun's clothes outside are becoming more and more conservative. She wears gray khaki clothes, white socks, lace-up black cloth shoes, and her gorgeous hair bun has been changed into two braids.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! These are the popular clothing and hairstyles of urban women in the Anxi Dominion.

Although it is a bit rustic, Pei Wanjun looks pure and beautiful when she wears it.

The newly returned Anxi Autonomous Territory, the local council has a restrictive attitude towards women's rights, and a recently passed law stipulates the minimum size of women's skirts in public places.

Lu Ming didn't think this was a problem. In the previous life, in the 1960s, this was still the case in states owned by Western powers. Bikinis, as swimwear, have been illegal in some areas for a long time.

Many things have a development process.

The sports car stopped downstairs at the "Yingbin Hotel". Lu Ming and Pei Wanjun got out of the car and went upstairs.

After reporting the name of Xiao Liu from the household registration department who booked the room, Lu Ming and Pei Wanjun were led to a private room on the second floor, but Xiao Liu and his wife had not arrived yet.

"Master, are you still waiting for someone else? Isn't this unprecedented?" Pei Wanjun smiled sweetly.

Lu Ming coughed and said, "I used to work as a lawyer in the East China Sea, and when I first arrived in Montenegro, I suffered too many rejections, let alone waiting for others."

"They will come soon, shall I call you master? Or young master? Or..."

Lu Ming waved his hand: "Just call me Lao Wang!"

Pei Wanjun was stunned and couldn't help but giggle.

There was a man's voice outside: "Section Chief, are you here? It's so early!"

A young couple came in, Xiao Liu from the household registration department and his wife.

Seeing Pei Wanjun, Xiao Liu's eyes lit up and he smiled at Lu Ming and said, "Section Chief, my sister-in-law is so beautiful."

Lu Ming waved his hand and smiled: "Come on, let's order!"

There has been a lot of fire everywhere recently, and my mind has been running at a high speed. However, life in Anxi is a good place to rest my mind and stay grounded.

"Haha, section chief, wait a moment, the treater hasn't come yet!" Xiao Liu laughed.

Lu Ming was startled: "Don't you want to invite me?"

Just as he finished speaking, there was a voice from outside, "Chief Wang, Officer Liu, I have arranged the meals!" The curtain of the private room was raised, and an old man came in, wearing black satin clothes and trousers, he came in and bowed repeatedly, "Excuse me, old man.

I just had an argument with the kitchen about ingredients and was delayed!"

Xiao Liu smiled at Lu Ming and said, "Section Chief, let me introduce to you. This is my third uncle from my hometown. He is a big landowner over there."

"Don't dare, don't dare, Officer Liu, you are very promising now!" The old man took off his hat and said with an apologetic smile to Lu Ming: "Chief Wang, I am Liu Jingsi."

Lu Ming smiled and said nothing.

Several people sat down, and the dishes that were served were very rich and unique. The local famous dish of Anxi, "Buttery Crispy Chicken", was really the most authentic here. Nothing Lu Ming had eaten elsewhere was as delicious as here.

While everyone was talking, they saw Pei Wanjun's fair and slender hands busy with various tasks for Lu Ming, as if they were about to remove the fish bones.

Xiao Liu and his wife were extremely surprised.

Liu Xiangshen smiled at Lu Ming and said, "Madam, she should be from a wealthy family, not just an ordinary wealthy family?"

In fact, you can tell by looking at Pei Wanjun's slender hands, that kind of whiteness and tenderness are really not something that ordinary wealthy families can raise.

Even though Pei Wanjun didn't interrupt, Squire Liu was well-informed and had his own feelings.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "Wanjun works at Jinxiu Branch of Baoyin Bank. Uncle Liu, please take good care of me."

Pei Wanjun then took out his business card and handed it to Liu Xiangshen and Xiao Liu.

Xiao Liu and his wife were even more surprised. They were working in a super big bank like Baoyin and were middle-level supervisors in a branch. They made much more money than Section Chief Wang. How could they be so gentle and obedient? He was just like Section Chief Wang.

maid.

Liu Xiangshen praised him repeatedly, and Lu Ming smiled at him: "Uncle Liu, you said you wanted to transfer your son's household registration here. In fact, isn't your son going to do business? He also bought a shop, so just go to the department to do it directly.

Oh, what, is someone making things difficult for me?"

"No, no!" Liu Xiangshen immediately shook his head and said with a smile: "Wouldn't it be better for me to report this to Section Chief Wang first?"

Lu Ming nodded.

In the meantime, Pei Wanjun made a confession, went out for a while, and whispered a few words in Lu Ming's ear when she came back.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "Uncle Liu, I paid for today's bill and I'll treat you to this meal. Your investment in Anxi will benefit all Anxi people. Your son wants to settle here. It's legal and compliant. How can I let you?"

Please have dinner, don’t say that I am just a small section chief. Even Mayor Anxi should be humble when he sees you and your noble master. Of course, I am saying that I must obey you out of personal courtesy, not official matters."

After hearing what Lu Ming said, Xiao Liu and his wife were stunned.

Liu Xiangshen was also full of shock. He had no idea what Section Chief Wang meant. He thought the food was not delicious? The environment here was not high-end enough?

When it comes to stuffing red envelopes, we haven’t reached that stage yet.

Having said that, Liu Xiangshen was already busy taking out the red envelope he had prepared earlier, but he hesitated when he was about to hand it out. He put one hundred yuan in it, which was the market price. It can be seen that Section Chief Wang's spirit was really impressive.

He is not an ordinary person, let alone his wife Pei, who is plain and simple, but his skin and temperament clearly indicate that he comes from a wealthy family. One hundred dollars? I'm afraid that's not a curse?

Seeing Liu Xiangshen's hand in his pocket, with a red envelope faintly exposed, Lu Ming said: "Uncle Liu, what I said is true. Our Xin'anxi, as long as it is legal and compliant, if the officials still want to eat and get cards,

No matter which department you are in, just make a complaint! Our Independent Commission Against Corruption’s complaint hotline is broadcast every day on TV and radio stations. It’s not a show-off.”

Most autonomous territories have an Independent Commission Against Corruption, which is directly responsible to the Governor. When encountering major cases, the Governor finds it difficult to handle them fairly, and may even reach out to the Prince's Office.

There is nothing that can be done about this. The official-oriented culture in the Northern Territory was not developed overnight. Even if democratically elected parliaments are being implemented, a special agency is still needed to monitor it.

Seeing the panic on Liu Xiangshen's face, Lu Ming smiled and stretched out his hand: "Uncle Liu, you can give me the red envelope. I will report myself later."

It was supposed to be a place to relax, but it ended up in a panic. The inertia of a society is terrible. Can I really change it?
