In the main hall of the Meng Mansion, Jiang Chengfeng took a sip of the tea served by the maid, it was a good dragon well before the rain, but the taste was still worse than the tea produced by the original Shen family tea garden.

Since Jiangcheng was opened as a treaty port, commerce has developed rapidly, especially the Shenjia Tea Garden and Jinjia Xiangfang, which have very traditional characteristics, and for a long time, almost monopolized the tea and spice markets in several provinces and cities around Jiangcheng, and even foreigners are full of praise.

It's a pity that the prosperity is bound to decline, the heads of the Shen and Jin families are too upright and upright, and they don't know how to be flexible and compromised, and they have been suppressed and retaliated by the joint efforts of officials and businessmen, and they have been framed by design, and the family is almost ruined.

Fortunately, the Jin family produced a capable son, who did not slump, but worked hard, combining the ancestral perfumery of the Jin family with the advanced technology of foreigners, and the pure natural perfume developed was more favored by foreigners, making the Jin family rise again.

Compared with the deceased Jin master, Jin Ruting knows how to judge the situation better, does not deliberately get close to the warlords from all sides and does not blindly reject them, and the relationship with the central government, the government and foreigners is also very harmonious.

Obviously, Jiang Haotian not only wants to pull out the thorn in Jin Ruting's eye this time, but also wants to use this to declare war with their Jiang family, he really doesn't miss the old love at all, but his mother is also his sister Jiang Haotian, although she is not born by a mother, but at least half of the blood relationship, her father has tolerated their Jiang family again and again over the years, but they have to inch in, which is really hateful.

Jin Ruting, he silently recited this very familiar name, put down the teacup, and tapped his fingers on the precious rosewood tabletop, and the corners of his lips pouted with a sneer, and his scalp was numb when he saw Director Meng on the main seat.

Meng Shiru looked at Lin Qingshan, who was sitting in the position of the young marshal's hand, suspiciously, trying to find some useful information from this old friend, but the man shrugged his shoulders helplessly at him, indicating that he didn't know anything.

He couldn't help but curse in his heart, who to deceive? He couldn't be sure of his young marshal's thoughts? It's not that he refused to sell his face before he cared about himself, and he wanted to take the opportunity to scold him, and he was really a careful eye for holding grudges.

But now is not the time to be angry with this thing, he has to find a way to send the plague god in front of him away quickly, otherwise Jiang Dujun will know that he has a connection with the Jiang family, which will be unlucky.

Seeing that his face was cloudy and uncertain, and he looked at the clock on the wall from time to time, Jiang Chengfeng finally spoke: "Director Meng doesn't need to be in a hurry to send off guests, it is estimated that the news of my coming to your house has already reached the ears of Jiang Dujun, and I have already sent you a gift. ”

"Are you ......" Meng Shiru's face turned green with anger from his arrogant words, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and tried his best to calm his tone and said, "Young Marshal Jiang is preparing to rob him?"

"Director Meng is wrong. The smile on the corner of Jiang Chengfeng's lips deepened, but it was full of mockery and disdain, "We spent money on that batch of arms, how can it be said that it was a robbery?"

"The central government clearly stipulates that it is forbidden to use private arms and arms, once discovered, it will be severely punished, and Meng will only deal with it impartially, if Young Marshal Jiang must make a big fuss, then I can only report to the relevant departments and let them solve the matter. ”

Jiang Chengfeng snorted coldly and disagreed, "Don't Director Meng think it's ridiculous to talk to me about the law now? For so many years, you have turned a blind eye to what the strict section chief under you has done, and you don't blame him, and everyone with a clear eye knows that he is serving Jiang Dujun and trying to turn Jiangcheng into the Jiang family's reserve granary, why don't you go and tell them the law?"

As soon as he raised his hand, someone immediately gave him a thick stack of materials, he took it and threw it directly on the table in front of Meng Shiru without looking at it, "Take a good look, I think someone should have backed up these things for you, but you handed it over to Jiang Dujun as it is, as the director of the Police Department, your duty is to protect the personal safety and property of the people of Jiangcheng from infringement, but in order to protect Mingzhe, let his Jiang Overseer's people do anything under you, is Jiangcheng still his Jiang family's territory?"

Jiangcheng was no longer under the jurisdiction of the Jiang family after the fall of the Qing court, but after all, the old lady Jiang was the governor of the three southern provinces, and the Jiang family had a certain deterrent effect here, so many years Jiang Haotian has wanted to reclassify it as his own jurisdiction, but there are too many pairs of eyes staring at this piece of fat, he is not stupid enough to let the Jiang family become the target of public criticism, so he chose to secretly insert his own power from the inside, and pocket the entire Jiangcheng little by little, which is equivalent to controlling one-third of the water transportation from south to north, which is very unfavorable to their northern army。

Meng Shiru was forced by his cold gaze, so he had to carefully read the things he threw over, in fact, he had learned the general content from him as early as when Minister An personally visited him, but he couldn't afford to provoke the Jiang family, so he could only take those evidences to Jiang Dujun and persuade him to agree to release Jin Ruting.

But he didn't expect that the daughter of the Shen family still had a back hand, Minister An was just a cover, what she really wanted to borrow was actually Jiang Dashuai's knife.

It seems that Du Ruhai's tragic death is not enough to calm the resentment in her heart, she is obviously trying to stir up Jiangcheng into restlessness, and involve several major families at once, not to mention, she even wants to provoke a vicious war between the two warlords, and her mind is really vicious.

"How is it? Do you still want to talk to me about the law now?" Jiang Chengfeng asked coldly.

Meng Shiru took a long time to look away from those materials, but he was speechless, the law? In this turbulent political situation, the law is a fart.

It's true that he's the Supreme Governor of the National Police Agency, but he's just a puppet who is only pulled out as a scapegoat when something happens.

For so many years, he has been walking on thin ice, constantly wiping his ass for the aftermath of those people, for fear that the shady and dirty things in the police department will be exposed, and he is the first unlucky, because everything has passed through his hands, and even the Yan Jiati prisoners who went to the mine to work as coolies have a text signed by him as a guarantee.
