"Okay! Director Zhang is indeed the mainstay of the headquarters and a role model for our generation. He speaks with a high standard." Wang Tianxiang said in a weird voice, "But if this person is not only bold, but also has a profound background, then I dare to ask Zhang Chu
Chang, what should I do with it?"
Zhang Zuyin didn't want to face Wang Tianxiang's aggressiveness, but he just snorted and replied calmly: "Simple, the Japanese wartime material control order clearly stated that anyone who uses power for personal gain, openly resells, and smuggles food will be
Anyone caught, regardless of his official position or background, will be punished on the spot and will never be tolerated!"
"Well said!" Wang Tianxiang nodded with satisfaction, then clapped his hands and shouted loudly, "Bring him in!"
Before he finished speaking, some men brought in the strong man Wang Tianxiang had captured from the black market.
"Come on, tell me louder, what's your name?"
The strong man had never experienced such a big battle. He was frightened on the spot and replied hesitantly: "Little... little... little Yan... Yan Dahai!"
"Yan Dahai, do you know your guilt?"
"Little... I don't understand what you are talking about, sir..."
Unexpectedly, Wang Tianxiang seemed to have expected that he would not admit it obediently, so he took out a few photos from his arms, threw them in front of him, and said to him very proudly: "I knew you could pretend to be stupid! Why don't you?
Fortunately, I was prepared. I believe anyone with good eyesight will recognize that the guy carrying grain and weighing the food in the photo is you, right?"
As soon as he saw those photos, Yan Dahai was immediately dumbfounded, because he couldn't figure out how someone could take such clear photos under the lighting conditions at the time? And no one noticed at all.
Of course, these thoughts only flashed through his mind, and soon there was only one thought left.
"Okay, I admit it, it's me... I'm secretly reselling food."
"Okay! As long as you are willing to admit it! Of course, it won't work if you don't admit it in front of this ironclad evidence."
Yan Dahai's confession indicated that the first part of Wang Tianxiang's plan had been successful. He immediately pursued the victory and continued to ask: "Now that things have happened, I advise you to tell the truth. Who are you working for?"
"What...who are you doing this for? Sir, why can't I understand what you are saying?"
"Are you still pretending to be stupid with me? Okay! Then let me ask you, how much food do you still have in your warehouse? Think about it later!"
"I told you, sir, that there are still more than 220 dans of rice and 160 dans of wheat left in the small warehouse."
"Where did you get all this food?"
"this……"
"What is this? You can't answer such a simple question, and you still say you're not doing things for others?"
"I...sir, please, please stop asking. I have already confessed my crime. What else do you want from me?"
"Yes, you have confessed, but you have not told the truth. Or do you think that as long as you bear all the charges, your family will be safe? If you really think so, it will be very serious.
That's wrong, let me tell you this! Once you are convicted, your parents and brothers will be sent to the mines to work as coolies until they die of exhaustion. Your wife and children will either be sent to comfort camps or
He was sold into a brothel. And all this is thanks to you. Is this what you want?"
"No... don't! Sir, my crime is not as bad as my family's. Please, you can punish me any way you want. I just want you to be merciful and let them go!"
When Wang Tianxiang saw that the threat was effective, he immediately gave him a glimmer of hope, "Whether you want to let your family go or not, I don't have to say. In the end, you have to rely on yourself. As long as you tell the person behind the scenes, that's it."
If you have meritorious service, I think our commander will also be lenient to your family as appropriate, what do you think?"
"I..." Yan Dahai fell into silence after hearing this. After a fierce battle between heaven and man, he finally said, "Okay, I said, it's Captain Dong. He asked me to get the food for him."
Sold on the black market."
Hearing this, Wang Tianxiang first glanced at Zhang Zuyin proudly, and then continued to ask without question: "Can you tell me clearly, who is Captain Dong?"
"That's Dong Biao, Captain Dong from the police security team."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Zuyin immediately became anxious, "That's nonsense! You..."
"Director Zhang, don't be so excited! Bring that Captain Dong over and ask about the right and wrong, and the truth will come to light!"
After hearing this, Zhang Zuyin couldn't help but snorted, "Okay! If you are not afraid of offending Commissioner Luo, just go ahead and say hello."
As soon as these words came out, not only Wang Tianxiang, but also Tang Shengming, who was sitting silently on the main seat, could not help but change his expression slightly.
"Director Zhang, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Just last night, Commissioner Luo received a report that someone was cheating in Hangzhou under the guise of me, so he ordered me to lead people to capture him overnight and send him to Xiling Hotel. And this person
It’s none other than Captain Dong from the security team of the police station!”
"Director Zhang, I just caught evidence of the crime here, and Commissioner Luo received the report. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?" Wang Tianxiang said reluctantly.
"Who says it's not? But some things are just such a coincidence."
"you!"
Seeing that Wang Tianxiang became more and more excited as he talked, Tang Shengming hurriedly said: "Okay! Director Wang, since this matter has alarmed Commissioner Luo, we must first communicate with the other party before continuing with the next step of the investigation.
Interrogated."
After saying that, he turned to Li Qiang and said: "As for the task of communicating with Commissioner Luo, I think it can be left to Director Ming. You two should have no objections, right?"
"No!" they both replied almost in unison.
After hearing this, Tang Shengming nodded with satisfaction, and then dismissed everyone, leaving Li Qiang alone.
"Brother Ming, what do you think about this matter?"
"My subordinates thought that in all likelihood, Director Zhang realized that the situation was not good, so he promptly cut off his relationship to clear his relationship."
"Well, I think so." Tang Shengming nodded in agreement, but then he frowned, "There's just one more thing, I still have no clue. Why did the two of them suddenly start fighting?
Woolen cloth?"
Li Qiang chuckled and did not hide anything. He simply confessed to Tang Shengming truthfully: "It is true that nothing can be hidden from your eyes, Commander. Yes, all this is indeed done behind the scenes by my subordinates."
Tang Shengming was obviously very pleased with Li Qiang's honesty to him, so he continued to say pleasantly: "Then tell me how you did it?"
"It's very simple. My subordinates knew that although the two guys didn't say anything, they were still thinking about the rumored Qiuzhuang treasure in their hearts. Therefore, my subordinates used a little trick to spread it on the black market.
A piece of fake news. As for the rest, it will fall into place naturally."
"You did a good job. Not only did you successfully alienate the relationship between the two of them, but you also got rid of Dong Biao. It can be said that you killed two birds with one stone!"
Naturally, Li Qiang would not tell him that there was a third bird. He just waved his hand humbly and said, "You are too generous. It's just a small trick, and it really doesn't deserve to be mentioned on the stage."
"You, please don't be too humble!" At this point, Tang Shengming changed the subject, "However, through this incident, you must learn from their lessons!"
"You are stupid because of your humble position, so please ask the commander for advice."
Tang Shengming waved his hand and talked eloquently: "It's just a matter of experience. As the saying goes, 'If you fight, you won't fight. If you don't fight, you will fight. If you don't fight, don't fight with me. Don't fight with me in the world.' Do you know what it means?"
Li Qiang shook his head with a puzzled expression.
Tang Shengming, instead of getting angry, continued patiently: "In other words, you can fight, but you must know what you are fighting for. To fight for publicity? If there are still people who can make you angry, then
It can only mean that you are not mature enough and need to review yourself! Do you fight for opportunities? Opportunities are given by leaders, what does it have to do with others? If you even get the wrong target, you need to review yourself even more! As for other resources, interests, etc.
, places, and advancement, if you can get it through competition, then what's the use of these rules, what's the use of being humane? So, in my opinion, there are no dissidents at all in this officialdom, as long as you get the appreciation and trust of the leader,
Then everyone will greet you with a smile; there will be no rivals. As long as you are appreciated and trusted by the leader, everyone will treat you as a close relative. Do you understand?"
Speaking of this, seeing that Li Qiang still seemed to understand, Tang Shengming simply gave an example, "Take this visit of Commissioner Luo as an example! Whether it's Zhang Zuyin, Wang Tianxiang, or No. 76
District Chief Xie of Hangzhou District, who doesn’t try his best to please? Why? Isn’t it just to gain the appreciation and trust of the leaders? But why didn’t I do that to them? The reason is very simple, because I, the commander, was appointed by Chairman Wang.
You should understand now, right?"
"Commander, what are you talking about from experience? They are simply words of wisdom, and they reveal the secrets of officialdom! These alone are enough to benefit my subordinates for a lifetime, and they will be of endless use!"
Li Qiang's flattery made Tang Shengming feel very comfortable, so he simply said a few more words, "Brother Ming, just remember one thing. If you want to develop in your official career, you must be able to work with those who are against you."
To live in peace and be tolerant of others, you must not only know how to tolerate others, but also be good at finding places to tolerate others. This is called political maturity. There are no winners in political struggles. As the saying goes, 'the process can be gamed.
But the result must be a win-win situation. Fighting blindly will only lead to a lose-lose situation. Only cooperation can achieve a win-win situation!"
"Yes, I have taken note of your teachings."
"Just write it down." Tang Shengming said, and then asked as if he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, how did you do with that matter?"
"Don't worry, it's been done. As soon as the money arrives, it will all be converted into gold bars within one day."
"The efficiency is pretty good, but... is your channel safe?"
"Don't worry, it's safe. Even if someone traces it later, they will never be able to find you."
"Very good, I just received the news today that Wang Manyun has set off from Nanjing and will arrive in three hours. You are still responsible for the reception. I will wait for you at the Hangzhou Hotel."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang couldn't help being stunned. You must know that the Hangzhou Hotel is right next to the Xiling Hotel where Luo Junqiang is staying. Such an arrangement is clearly a counter-act!
Tang Shengming naturally saw the doubts and worries in Li Qiang's heart at a glance, so he added, "This is Secretary-General Li's intention. We are just following orders, there is no need to worry about it."
Hearing this, Li Qiang nodded and resigned. Not only did he prepare carefully, but he also specially called Sun Kai, who had succeeded Wu Zhiguo as the captain of the operations team, and the group headed to Hangzhou Railway Station in a grand manner.
After waiting for a full hour, a train from Nanjing finally slowly entered Hangzhou Railway Station.
As soon as the train stopped, a middle-aged man in a straight Chinese tunic suit and wearing a badge of the Wang Puppet Government on his chest slowly walked out of the first-class carriage, surrounded by a group of black-clad guards.
Li Qiang, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately came forward to greet him: "You must be Commissioner Wang, right? I am Ming Qiang, director of the General Affairs Department of the Lower Suppression Headquarters, who has come to greet you on the order of the commander. If you are negligent, please call Commissioner Wang.
Please bear with me."
"Director Ming is so polite. I heard Secretary-General Li mention you a lot in Nanjing! When I saw you today, you are indeed young and promising, and you are a talented person! If only there could be more young talents like Director Ming,
Chairman Wang’s great cause of peace, why worry about it!”
To be honest, before this, Li Qiang really didn't expect that Wang Manyun would praise himself so highly just after they met, so he quickly said humbly: "Commissioner Wang is so grateful. Mainstays like you are the cornerstone of the great cause of peace."
, we young people who lack experience should learn more from seniors like you."
"Well, I like to hear this. He is young and promising, neither arrogant nor impetuous. He is a good young talent. Not bad!"
After some pleasantries, Li Qiang suddenly said as if he suddenly remembered something, "Ouch! Commissioner Wang, look at me. I was too busy talking to you and almost forgot about the real thing. I believe you must have worked hard on this journey, Commissioner Wang.
Our commander has prepared a banquet at the Hangzhou Hotel to greet you personally, how about we go over now?"
"Okay, lead the way!"
"Please!"
After saying that, Li Qiang respectfully invited Wang Manyun into the car, and the group arrived at the Hangzhou Hotel, which was just across the wall from the Xiling Hotel.
When I got there, naturally, just like Luo Junqiang before me, I received a very high standard of warm hospitality from the Suppression Commander-in-Chief.
However, just when the reception banquet was reaching its climax, Tang Shengming suddenly received a piece of news that shocked him from his personal secretary Cheng Tiexia: Something happened to Wang Tianxiang!
