Chapter 60: Calm Waves

Out of Zhang Jianghe's office, Tang Cheng did not go upstairs directly, but went downstairs again, found Zhao Dashan and Yang Cheng waiting outside the small building, and after whispering a few words, Tang Cheng took a rectangular box from Yang Cheng's hand, turned around and walked into the small building. The people in the small building all saw the long box in Tang Cheng's hand, but no one came up to find out what was in the box.

A kid who walked shit luck! Tang Cheng, who walked slowly upstairs down the stairs, was soon secretly given such a name by the guys with all kinds of thoughts in the small building. Whether Tang Cheng has gone shit luck or not, no one knows, but what Tang Cheng is going to at the moment is the temporary office on the third floor that has just been arranged. He went up to the 3rd floor with a blank face, and only then turned the corner of the stairs, Tang Cheng saw Secretary Yao standing in the corridor at a glance.

You're here! Secretary Yao, who already had several cigarette butts at his feet, suddenly improved his originally depressed mood the moment he saw Tang Cheng appear. "Didn't I tell you to come up quickly? Why are you grinding so slowly? As the person who was once called Uncle Yao by Tang Cheng, Secretary Yao knocked a chestnut on the head of Tang Cheng, who was carefully accompanied by a smiling face and walked to his side in small steps, and then didn't look at the resentful expression on Tang Cheng's face at all, just reached out and pushed Tang Cheng's back and pushed the latter into the room behind him.

This temporary office was originally used by Chongqing Station to place archives, and after he came to Chongqing Station, it was arranged as an office. There was more than one person in the temporary office, and when Tang Cheng was pushed in by Secretary Yao, the three people in the temporary office, including the seat, all turned their heads to look at Tang Cheng in unison. Among the three gazes that looked at him, Tang Cheng knew that the one with appreciation should belong to the Lord Seat, while the other two faintly angry gazes, needless to say, naturally belonged to the other two people.

Finding that there were other people in the temporary office, Tang Cheng pretended to casually hand the long box in his hand to Secretary Yao, who came in later, and secretly gave the other party a look, and Tang Cheng walked from the position at the door to the desk and stood up. Tang Cheng entered the door and handed over the things to Secretary Yao to hold, originally because he was worried that he would send something to the seat, and it would be bad for these two strangers to know, but looking at the reaction of the seat, he didn't care at all.

The seat beckoned to Secretary Yao, who willingly handed the long box to the seat, and Tang Cheng only frowned slightly when he saw this, and then smiled a little innocently. "A few days ago, I followed the garrison regiment to Jiangbei to suppress bandits, and when I was chasing the remnants of the bandits, an old policeman under my command found this thing from a bandit. I'm not interested in these things, and my uncle only likes to fiddle with small pieces of jade, so I saw that this painting was not bad, so I brought it to you. ”

As he spoke, Tang Cheng took two steps forward and took the initiative to help the bench open the long box and take out a pair of painting scrolls from it. Tang Cheng didn't know anything about calligraphy and painting, but before this painting was put into this long box, Tang Cheng had already looked for someone who knew how to see it. The delicate eyes of the seat carefully looked at the ancient painting on the table, and quickly gave a judgment, "This should be a Ming Dynasty landscape painting, although it is not the handiwork of a famous artist, but the artistic conception of this painting is excellent, I like it very much." ”

Seeing that the seat was talking so closely with this hairy boy, the other two people in the office secretly frowned, and said that the two of them came for nothing this time. "Let's talk about it, you are a little sergeant, the suppression of bandits in Jiangbei is a matter of the garrison regiment, what are you going to do blindly?" When Secretary Yao put back the landscape painting on the table into the long box, the seat that was originally happy immediately changed his face and put on an expression of asking for guilt.

When Tang Cheng heard this, he could only stretch out his hand and scratch his head while opening his mouth to explain. "It's not that my uncle's side has been increasing the number of people, the activity funds have not been enough, and my side also needs a lot of expenses. It just so happened that Wang Bingzhang, the director of the city bureau, had always been angry about those mountain bandits and bandits around Chongqing, so we hit it off, and the garrison regiment joined forces to suppress the bandits. ”

"Chongqing's anti-bandit operation has lasted for more than a month, and more than a dozen bandits around Chongqing have been wiped out. As if deliberately confirming Tang Cheng's words, Secretary Yao whispered in the ear of the seat at the right time. "However, according to our people, every time the bandits stole property, forty percent of it goes to Zhang Jiang and the newly formed action team and this kid's investigation team, and there are already people in the police department who are dissatisfied with this."

Although Secretary Yao's voice was very soft, Tang Cheng, who was only separated by a desk, could hear it clearly. secretly said in his heart that there were no secret agents from the intelligence department among the old policemen under him, Tang Cheng's expression naturally stiffened, and Secretary Yao greeted him several times in a row, and Tang Cheng reacted. "Then you can't make my people work in vain! In order to collect information and clues about the surrounding bandits, my people have wasted a lot of effort and time! ”

Facing the questioning gaze of the audience, Tang Cheng naturally wanted to show that he was very aggrieved, and the money and goods obtained by the bandits, he and Zhang Jianghe used them in business, and they did not put the slightest amount in their pockets. Tang Cheng's complaint obviously didn't work, because there was scrutiny and questioning in the eyes of the people who looked at Tang Cheng, but there was no pity. "You're not honest! I heard that the Sun brothers in Jiangbei have a lot of money, how much money can you use for those few people under your hands? ”

"Isn't that my uncle's side! As for the barracks they are using now, they still owe half of the money to the garrison regiment and have not paid it all! Tang Cheng muttered dissatisfiedly, he knew that the more time this was, the more he should relax, otherwise he would only attract unwarranted suspicion from the seat or Secretary Yao. Sure enough, Tang Cheng's eyes rolled slightly, and he found out from the corner of his eye that Secretary Yao had been paying attention to his reaction.

"Speaking of the Sun brothers in Jiangbei, I have another thing related to you here, and it just so happens that you are also here, explain it to me together!" At this time, he suddenly remembered that there were other people in his office, and then changed the topic, shifting Tang Cheng's attention to the two people sitting on the sofa. "This is the boss of Zhou Changfa Zhou of Changfa Trading Company, this is the shopkeeper Meng of Sanjiang Teahouse, the police station sealed the door of Sanjiang Teahouse, and the city bureau said it was your reason."

Being able to find this place, and still being able to sit in an office in a dignified manner, Tang Cheng knew that these two people were definitely not ordinary. But since the Sanjiang Teahouse has been involved, Tang Cheng doesn't mind going through the original story here, "We have an ongoing case, one of the targets that has been captured is related to the Sanjiang Teahouse, and my subordinates found that the target entered the Sanjiang Teahouse during the operation that day. When I rushed over to help, I found that the target had escaped from the Sanjiang Teahouse, and it was later confirmed that there were people inside the Sanjiang Teahouse who helped the target leave through the secret passage. ”

Tang Cheng deliberately bit the accent on the two words of the secret passage, and then looked at the shopkeeper Meng in the Sanjiang Teahouse, and there was already a panic in his eyes. "The door was sealed to find out the Neiying, but we didn't expect the news to be leaked out, and the Neiying we were looking for suddenly disappeared, not to mention, the secret passage of the Sanjiang Teahouse was also destroyed. Even if Shopkeeper Meng doesn't show up today, I plan to meet Shopkeeper Meng in a few days to discuss in detail, and there are some things that must be faced. ”

Tang Cheng's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, but it was a little unexpected by the seat and Secretary Yao, but when Tang Cheng said that he wanted to ask the shopkeeper Meng to meet and discuss in detail, the seat with a strained face laughed very unceremoniously. "You really know how to climb the pole, according to your temperament, if you had known that Shopkeeper Meng was the owner of Sanjiang Teahouse, could you wait until now to say this?" In the face of ridicule, Tang Cheng said that he was deaf and blind, and directly chose to ignore it.

Shopkeeper Meng and Zhou Chang found that they didn't know what Tang Cheng's position was, but seeing his humble and arrogant demeanor in front of the seat, the two people who were originally impatient didn't dare to underestimate Tang Cheng anymore. The seat didn't seem to mind the presence of the two shopkeepers, and then asked Tang Cheng in detail about the operation, Tang Cheng was vigilant, but he just avoided the important and said a rough idea, he didn't even give a positive answer about how many people there are in the investigation team.

Tang Cheng's caution obviously satisfied the seat, but Tang Cheng's next words made the seat frown faintly. "Whether there is a problem with Sanjiang Teahouse, I can't draw a conclusion at present, at least until the investigation of Sanjiang Teahouse by those under my command is over, and I can't make a conclusion. It just so happens that Shopkeeper Meng is also here today, I don't know where Han Laosi, the account room of Sanjiang Teahouse, is? My people saw that Han Laosi had contact with the target that day. ”

Hearing Han Laosi's name, the fat on the face of the shopkeeper Meng trembled obviously, Han Laosi, who is the bookkeeper, knows too many things, if Han Laosi has a problem, the stall of Sanjiang Teahouse will be in trouble. Shopkeeper Meng was about to speak, but Zhou Changfa, who was sitting next to him, had already spoken first, "Little brother, you have to be merciful and forgiving, not to mention the people who left from the Sanjiang Teahouse, haven't you already caught them?" Instead of biting and biting, it is better to have multiple friends and take multiple roads, what do you think? ”

Zhou Changfa is a businessman, and his mouth is full of the taste of money, in his opinion, there is nothing in the world where spending money can't work. Tang Cheng didn't pay attention to Zhou Changfa, but cautiously looked at the seat behind the desk, Zhou Changfa's words just now had an obvious hint of collusion of interests, so Tang Cheng had to wait for the seat to react first. "Alright, you go get busy first! If there's something, I'll let Secretary Yao inform you! ”
