"Three days? That should be enough time! Director Ming, if you can trust me, how about you leave this matter to me?"
"Leave it to you? This..." Haitang subconsciously glanced at Li Qiang aside and said.
Li Qiang didn't think too much and nodded directly in agreement: "Okay!"
As soon as these words came out, Section Chief Zhu was immediately overjoyed, "Don't worry, Director Ming, I promise to make this place look brand new within three days, and I will never betray your trust in me."
"Very good. With your words, I feel relieved. If this thing is done well, it will naturally be your benefit, but if it goes wrong..."
"If it fails, I will leave it to Director Ming to handle it. I will have no objections!"
"Well, I've seen your determination. Let's see how you do next. Also, don't keep calling me a division chief in the future. The Suppression Headquarters has been reorganized. My current position is Qingxiang. Don’t call the deputy chairman of the recruitment and reorganization committee by the wrong name!”
"I understand, Director Ming."
"You!" Li Qiang smiled and pointed at Section Chief Zhu, and then handed him the key here, "I'll leave it to you next!"
"Yes, Director Ming!"
…
"I said, are you really so confident about leaving that house to Zhu?" It wasn't until she was on the way back that Haitang finally couldn't help but tell Li Qiang her concerns.
"Even if we don't leave it to him, don't we still have to find someone to take care of it? Do we have to do it ourselves?"
"Oh, that's not what I meant. I was worried that the guy's purpose in taking this job was not pure."
"Of course it's not innocent. What he did was just to curry favor with me. His purpose was not only to bring us closer to each other, but also to make me his backer."
"Aren't you afraid that he will take the opportunity to do something small while taking care of you?"
"for example?"
"For example, install a bug, or leave a secret door in an inconspicuous place or something?"
"This is what you've been worried about for a long time!" Li Qiang suddenly said after hearing this, "Don't worry, that guy doesn't have the guts, and besides, don't you still have him? As long as you are the supervisor, that guy can still do it. Is there some kind of storm going on?"
"That's true!"
While talking, the two returned to their residence.
Li Qiang first sent Haitang back to the room, and then went out again to the Qingxiang Committee's office in Suzhou, where he sat for more than an hour before he completed the task assigned to him by Tang Shengming and returned home.
The next day's itinerary was the same, except that after completing the task again, Li Qiang did not return to his residence like yesterday, but returned directly to Hangzhou.
Although it was already dark when he rushed back to Hangzhou, Li Qiang still rushed to Tang Shengming's mansion without stopping.
"Come back?" In the study, Tang Shengming glanced at Li Qiang, who was standing in front of him dusty and dusty, and said.
"Yes, my subordinate has completed the task assigned by you and is here to report back to you."
"Then let's go!"
After saying that, Tang Shengming got up and took Li Qiang to Qiuzhuang again.
"Mr. Tang, I think you should know that I don't have enough patience anymore. I hope what you bring this time is good news." At the main seat in the west building hall, Tetsuo Jiuchao put his fingers on his chin with his fingers crossed, his face expressionless. Said with an expression.
"Of course! Of course! Of course it's good news. After these few days of dredging and management, those necessary joints have finally been unblocked. As long as the time is right, we can start tonight."
Hearing this, Washio Tetsuo's expression changed from the initial relief to confusion, "Then may I ask Mr. Tang, what does the right time mean?"
"Your Excellency, Marquis, you also know that demolishing Qiuzhuang is not a trivial matter. There must be a reasonable explanation to stop those Youyou's mouths, right?"
"That is to say, if the time is not right, you still can't do it?"
"There is no way to do it, but it requires the cooperation of His Excellency the Marquis."
"How to cooperate?"
"Simple, first remove all the guards in Qiuzhuang, and then..." At this point, Tang Shengming lowered his voice and whispered to Jiuchao Tiefu.
After hearing this, Washo Tetsuo made a decision immediately without saying a word, "Well, then I'll do as you said!"
Just half an hour after this secret meeting, a large amount of information related to the Qiuzhuang treasure suddenly appeared on the black market, and it soon became the most discussed topic among people.
However, just when everyone was discussing in full swing, an even more exciting news broke out like a bomb: a mysterious rich man had spent a lot of money to acquire Qiuzhuang from the Security Command and was preparing to start construction tonight
, transform it into a park.
When such news breaks out at this time, it is difficult not to arouse people's imagination. But if you think about it a little, you will naturally come to a conclusion: Is the so-called mysterious rich man spending so much money to acquire Qiuzhuang just to make it?
Transform it into a park? I’m afraid only a fool would believe it!
While everyone was still talking about this matter, Li Qiang, who was mixed in the crowd, loudly suggested: "It's going to be demolished anyway, why not take this opportunity to search and see if there is anything in Qiuzhuang?"
Treasure, everyone, right?"
This sentence seemed to wake up everyone present, so they spontaneously organized themselves. Soon, treasure hunting teams of varying sizes were organized, heading in the direction of Qiuzhuang.
It has to be said that the power of the masses is still very strong. It only took one night to completely wipe the manor from the map physically, which was originally known as the largest area in Hangzhou and also the most expensive to build, leaving only
There are a few isolated foundations and a bare back mountain. Even the originally flat land has been dug up by treasure hunters who are unwilling to return empty-handed. You can see it almost every few steps, ranging from a few meters deep.
A large pit more than ten meters deep.
And with the disappearance of Qiuzhuang, the rumors of the treasure were naturally disproven, and even reached the point where if anyone talked about it again, it would attract ridicule from others.
Such a result was naturally something that Tetsuo Gushichao was very happy to see, so after giving Tang Shengming a large sum of money very simply, he was satisfied and returned to his country boldly and confidently.
His departure also announced that everything related to Qiuzhuang was finally over.
It can be said that everything started because of Qiuzhuang, and finally ended because of Qiuzhuang. Dust returns to dust, dust returns to dust, which makes people sigh.
Li Qiang's future work focus will also shift from Hangzhou to Suzhou. However, before that, there is another thing that gives Li Qiang a headache, which is how to deal with the "small boat" that has been with him for nearly a year.
Number".
Thanks to it, Li Qiang was able to frequently contact Shangfeng and Yumei's warehouses through the ship's radio without any worries. Because of this, from the beginning, Li Qiang was thinking about how to transport the ship intact.
Going to Taihu Lake was a big headache.
Because the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was still navigable at this time, the simplest and most convenient way was to go all the way north to Taihu Lake through the canal.
However, since there are many bridges to be crossed along the way, the height of the bridges naturally becomes a big problem. You must know that the "Bianzhou" is almost three stories above the deck. This height can be barely passed at first, but when the ship arrives
During the Huzhou section, it will be impossible to continue sailing due to altitude issues.
Therefore, we have to consider the second option, which is to go directly from Hangzhou to the Yangtze River in a large circle, and then go south from Zhenjiang to Changzhou, Wuxi, and finally arrive at Taihu Lake.
Although this plan is relatively safe, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to implement, and it has to pass through Japanese blockades one after another. If you are not careful, it will cause a lot of trouble.
After much thought, Li Qiang finally had to make a difficult decision to remove the top layer of the "Bianzhou". Although this would greatly reduce the space on the ship and affect the overall aesthetics, it was already
The best solution Li Qiang could think of.
However, after learning about Li Qiang's decision, Hong Bo, the captain, was the first to stand up and express his opposition.
However, Li Qiang did not try to persuade him or change his mind. Instead, after making up his mind, Li Qiang paid a special visit to Gu Minzhang and borrowed several outstanding shipwrights from his company.
After working out a systematic and complete transformation plan with the workers overnight, Hong Bo and others calmed down.
After getting these things done, Li Qiang could finally turn his attention to his marriage with peace of mind.
Unexpectedly, just when Li Qiang was about to go to the Sheng family to inspect and accept the work results of Section Chief Zhu over the past few days, Shen Gengmei, who had already joined the Recruitment and Reorganization Committee and started working, suddenly came over.
"Secretary Shen, why are you here? Did something happen?"
However, Shen Gengmei did not directly explain the purpose of his visit. Instead, he lowered his head and whispered with a red face: "Director, just call me Gengmei."
"Okay! But you should call me deputy director, right?"
After hearing this, Shen Gengmei shook her head repeatedly, "No, Director Tang said that if he is absent from the committee in the future, you will act as director."
"So, the director... deserted again?" Li Qiang asked, dumbfounded after hearing this.
Shen Gengmei nodded seriously and recalled: "Well, it seems that I went to Shanghai to study and learn advanced management experience."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang couldn't help but think to himself: Studying on a study tour? That sounds nice. It's probably that he went to Shanghai to fool around!
After complaining fiercely, Li Qiang returned to the topic and continued to ask: "Okay, since the director is not here, just tell me what happened."
"Oh, it's like this. Early this morning, someone sent an anonymous letter. It asked you to open it personally. My subordinates didn't dare to open it without authorization, so..."
As she spoke, Shen Gengmei took out a letter sealed with fire paint and gave it to Li Qiang respectfully.
It was a good thing that Li Qiang didn't look at it. When he saw the handwritten words "personally signed by Chief Li Qiang" on the envelope, he immediately frowned and said to himself: "This is...A Cheng's handwriting!"
After saying that, without caring about anything else, he quickly opened the envelope and read it.
It doesn't matter if you don't read it. After seeing the content of the letter, Li Qiang frowned even more tightly.
Although Shen Gengmei on the side was very curious about what was written in the letter, she could never find any suitable reason to ask. And just when she was troubled by this, Li Qiang simply stuffed the letter away. In her hands.
"Director, what are you..."
Before Shen Gengmei could react, Li Qiang immediately ordered at a very fast speed: "Quick! Immediately notify Deputy Captain Sun of the Peace Volunteer Corps and ask him to immediately bring someone to hide the people at the address mentioned in the letter. Capture the red party officers who are recovering from their injuries, and don’t let others get there first!"
"Oh! Okay... ok! I... I'll go right away!" Just a few words made Shen Gengmei nervous. She nodded with conviction, and then took the letter with her. He ran away and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.
However, as soon as Shen Gengmei left, Li Qiang's brows unfurled, he stopped a rickshaw and headed in the direction of the Sheng family, as if nothing happened.
When they arrived at their destination, before Li Qiang got off the car, Section Chief Zhu was the first to greet him and happily reported the results of his work to him.
After touring his future residence from inside to outside, Li Qiang said with great satisfaction: "Well, not bad, Chief Zhu took the trouble."
"Director Ming, thank you very much. Guibao House has a good foundation. It's just that it has been unoccupied for a long time and it looks a bit old and dilapidated. I'm just doing a simple tidying up and cleaning to restore it to its original appearance for you." That’s all.”
"I can't tell, you're pretty good at talking. Don't tell me, it's a waste of talent to have you stay in that damn place of the Land Bureau for so many years! What do you think? Do you want to be under my command?"
"Really?" The reason why Section Chief Zhu tried so hard to show off was because he was waiting for Li Qiang's words, so after hearing this, he was immediately overjoyed, "That's a good thing, I can only ask for it!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang waved his hand again, "You, don't be so excited now, listen to what I have to say. Yes, I can transfer you directly from the Land Bureau, but you have to think carefully. Come on, now that I am here, you are no longer a section chief, you have to start from the lowest level of the team, so are you still willing to work under me?"
As soon as these words came out, Section Chief Zhu blurted out without even thinking: "Yes!"
"Okay then! When I finish the wedding, I will ask your director for someone. It just so happens that you can take advantage of this time to think about it carefully, otherwise it will be too late to regret it by then!"
Having said this, Li Qiang paused for a moment, and then asked a little strangely: "By the way, where is Haitang? I've been here for so long, why haven't I seen her?"
