At the wharf of Sanyang Town, a steam passenger ship of only about 100 tons was slowly approaching the wharf, and on the bow of the ship, Zhou Li, who was dressed in a robe and holding a folding fan, stood on the bow of the ship.

After the boat docked on the dock, a young man on the dock got on the boat to greet Zhou Li: "Third uncle, you are back." ”

Zhou Li nodded slightly: "Let everyone wait for a long time, let's go, go back first!" ”

After going ashore, Zhou Li directly got into a four-wheeled carriage, and the young man behind him also followed, and as soon as he got up, he asked with an anxious look: "Third uncle, how is the matter?" ”

Zhou Li smiled: "It's done!" ”

The young man's face immediately showed ecstasy: "So, in the future, third uncle, you will be the business manager of our Nanzhou Bank?" ”

Zhou Li nodded slightly, didn't say much, just nodded: "Hmm!" ”

Although he said that he was calm, his heart was not calm.

This time I went back to Luo'an County, and it was a debriefing on the surface, but in fact, I went to participate in the test before I was transferred to the third department.

The process of testing is not uneventful, even full of crises, and if you are not careful, the efforts of the past years will be in vain, and it may even arouse suspicion, and then be thrown into the Luo River.

As soon as I remembered that the people in the sixth department interrogated him for three days in a row, asked him how many times he had wetted the bed after a few hours, and finally confirmed his safety, and then stamped and signed his transfer application.

In the next few days, he relied on his own efforts, coupled with the fact that the situation in Lianguan County is indeed complicated, Lin Ziran's importance is becoming more and more important, as one of the many employees of Nanzhou Bank in Luo'an County, and Lin Ziran is the most familiar person, he also won favor in front of his new boss Wu Shenxuan, and successfully became the business manager in charge of Lin Ziran's side.

This is the business manager of the third department!

Don't look at the fact that some people called him Manager Zhou before, but that was just the branch manager of Hongxiang Commercial Bank.

His previous actual position at the Bank of Southern State was actually just a very ordinary supervisor.

In the past, he was a supervisor under the Second Supervision Department of the Asset Management Committee of the Bank of Nanzhou, at most he was relatively senior, and there were only a few people under him.

Supervision Department 2 is mainly responsible for supervising and managing some of the assets invested externally by Nanzhou Bank.

At that time, Zhou Li's main job was to go to Hongxiang Commercial Bank on behalf of Nanzhou Bank, understand the operation mode of Hongxiang Commercial Bank, and report the situation at any time for the headquarters to make decisions.

Of course, like all overseas business managers, he will also pull business for Nanzhou Bank.

In fact, he was quite cool at that time, with two salaries.

However, he has become a 'business manager', which is not the key, the most important thing is that he has now changed departments and transferred to the third department under the strategy committee under the board of directors.

There are a large number of business managers in all departments of Nanzhou Bank, especially a large number of employees in financial business institutions, regardless of whether they lend money or pull deposits, and even serve tea and water with the title of business manager.

However, the business manager of the third department is different from other departments.

Even, in the hearts of the powerful people in various feudal towns, the business managers of the third department are the actual representatives of Nanzhou Bank, not the branch managers of local branches.

The Strategy Committee of the Bank of Southern State, which is a body that studies and formulates the overall development strategy of the Bank of Southern State, is the core body of the Bank of Southern State, and is directly managed by the Board of Directors.

The third department is the most core department in the strategy committee.

For example, the first department is responsible for economic research, the second department is responsible for scientific research, and the third department is responsible for researching the situation......

The point is in this third part, which on the surface seems to be just studying the situation, well, they did this in the early days.

However, since more than a decade ago, this third part has not been limited to studying the situation in various places, but has intervened through various means to push the situation in the direction of Nanzhou Bank's favor.

With a more intuitive example, we can explain what kind of institution this third part is, that is, in the past ten years, almost all the wars in Nanhai Prefecture with a scale of more than 10,000 people have been active behind the third department.

This is not to say that these business managers of the Third Department have much energy to directly promote the war on their own, but it is to say that the Bank of Nanju contacted the various feudal towns through the Third Department and handled the affairs of the feudal towns in various regions.

The third part of this institution, which is unknown and has never been heard of by most ordinary people in Nanhai Prefecture, is to some extent more like a representative of Nanzhou Bank, and actually represents Nanzhou Bank outside.

Many of its subordinate managers, more like diplomats, traveled around Nanhai Prefecture and other surrounding states, responsible for direct contact with the feudal towns, handling various affairs, and also responsible for the big business of the Nanzhou Bank and these feudal towns, such as providing loans to the feudal towns, pulling arms orders, or doing other big business.

These businesses often involve a lot of unconventional conditions, and ordinary local branches do not have the authority to handle them, so the business contact with the local feudal towns is generally the responsibility of the local senior business manager.

Wu Shenxuan, the previous business manager of Nanzhou Bank, belongs to such a business manager.

And what were he and Lin Ziran talking about at the time?

Hundreds of thousands of loans for unlimited purposes, support for ordnance supply channels, and support for kerosene transportation.

The ironclad ship that was transferred to escort the ship was transferred by Wu Shenxuan, which shows that Wu Shenxuan's authority is huge.

At that time, Zhou Li was just a supervisor, and theoretically could not meddle in these matters, but because he was very familiar with Lin Ziran, he used to contact Lin Ziran directly on behalf of Nanzhou Bank, so he was actually involved in these things.

The people above are mainly Wu Shenxuan, who was just promoted to senior business manager two months ago and was in charge of the overall business of Luo'an County, saw that he was okay and was very familiar with Lin Ziran, so he was transferred to be in charge of Lianguan County's affairs.

From a senior asset supervisor before, at most, Zhou Li, who occasionally helped pull a business, has now directly become a business manager of the third department, directly representing Nanzhou Bank and Lin Ziran to communicate and deal with many affairs of Lin Ziran.

This is a huge step forward for his career.

And he himself knew this deeply, after returning from the county town, he had just set foot on the land of Sanyang Town, and he was circling in his mind about how to complete the task assigned by the above.

Before coming back, Wu Shenxuan, the immediate boss and senior business manager in charge of Luo'an County's affairs, gave him a task.

That is to promote Lin Ziran to cooperate with their Nanzhou Bank's layout in Luo'an County as much as possible.

What layout?

Make sure that the county of Roan is always divided.

The Bank of Nanzhou will never allow any feudal town to unify Luo'an County, let alone unify Luoguang County.

For example, Jian Minggang tried to kill Li Kun and others to unify Luo'an County.

Without saying a word, the Nanzhou Bank directly cut off the loan support for them, and even detained a large batch of weapons and ammunition they ordered.

And this is not enough, the Bank of Southern State must completely cut off Jian Minggang's ambition to try to unify Luo'an County.

Therefore, Zhou Li, who had just returned to Sanyang Town, sent someone to the military camp on the outskirts of the city on the same day and agreed to visit Lin Ziran tomorrow.
