Zhu Muyun looked at the cloth bag in Shi Xixia's hand, knowing that it contained gold bars, although his heart was itchy. In his eyes, what Shi Xixia was holding was not gold bars, but food, salt, weapons and ammunition urgently needed in the base area, as well as military uniforms and medicines of the New Fourth Army.

But Zhu Muyun knew that he had to endure it at this time. If you are willing to give, only if you "give up" first, will you have "gain". He turned around and ordered the guards to speed up to the Ancient Star Dock. I can't see it, I can't see it a few more times, and I can't sleep at night.

"I have received Director Shi's wishes, so let's talk about it later." Zhu Muyun raised his hand and said loudly. Why didn't he want the gold bar in Shi Xixia's hand.

However, with a short hand, he must break Shi Xixia's thoughts. He wants to pass on a message to Shi Xixia, this time with money, it really can't be solved. What does Shi Xixia need? Sincerity, sincerity. If Li Bangfan really wants to give up Shi Xixia when the time comes, and collect the money himself, he will be able to collect it with peace of mind.

After all, Shi Xixia, who stepped down, is nothing, at most he is a traitor to the Central Union. Everywhere, rebellion is spurned.

Looking at the boat that was getting farther and farther away, Shi Xixia knew that Zhu Muyun would not ask for this money. He was frustrated and panicked at the same time. Zhu Muyun didn't even want gold bars, not because the sun came out of the west, but because Zhu Muyun could see the situation better than himself. Thinking of this, he was even more disappointed.

"How about it, the person surnamed Zhu took the gold bar, he should have promised to give us an event, right?" Chen Lan saw Shi Xixia coming back and said sneeringly. Every time Zhu Muyun came, nothing good happened.

Shi Xixia is doing business and has already distributed the profits to Zhu Muyun. But every time Shi Xixia encounters something, he has to give him money to do things. Such a person is ruthless and unrighteous, and is not worthy of deep friendship.

"I didn't ask for it." Shi Xixia sneered and said, he took out the gold bar and threw it into Chen Lan's arms.

"Don't you want to be rich, Zhu Muyun's brain is in water?" Chen Lan couldn't help but say happily when she saw that the five gold bars were back.

"Stupid woman, really long hair and short vision. Even Zhu Muyun doesn't want money, what does this mean? Shi Xixia glanced at her with disdain and said coldly.

"So, you're in trouble? Why don't you give this money to Wu Shangtian? Chen Lan finally came to her senses and said nervously. Without Shi Xixia, she is nothing. She felt this from the incident.

"Wu Shangtian can't solve any problems." Shi Xixia shook his head, this matter, only Zhu Muyun can solve it, if Zhu Muyun can't solve it, no one can. As for Li Bangfan, he didn't dare to send money.

Zhu Muyun had already told him that this time it was not about money, nor was it that he did something wrong, but about his loyalty to Li Bangfan. As soon as he thought of this, Shi Xixia had a headache. He didn't mean to betray Li Bangfan, he just wanted to keep some chips in his hands.

"Your intentions are good, why should Li Bangfan blame you?" Chen Lan said dissatisfiedly.

"The brothers below, if you want to improve the food, the starting point is also good, why do you blame them?" Shi Xixia said coldly.

"Now this kind of food is good enough, hey, why are you pulling things on me again?" Chen Lan scolded angrily.

"Don't say any more, I'm going to Baishi Road later." Shi Xixia walked into the study with his hands behind his back. He had to think carefully about how to report to Li Bangfan at night.

***

After Zhu Muyun returned to the office at the wharf, he called Liu Quan of the Salt Political Bureau. After Zhu Muyun's activities and recommendations, and Li Bangfan's arrangement, Liu Quan has officially taken up the post of director of the Salt Political Bureau.

The director and the deputy director are completely different things. After Liu Quan took office, because he had always been familiar with the work of the Salt Political Bureau, he quickly sat in a secure position. His current office is more luxurious than the original Li Yanhan's. Of course, his pomp and circumstance are also bigger than Li Yanhan.

Hearing the phone ringing, he picked it up casually and said lazily, "Hey, it's me." ”

"Liu Quan, let's have a meal together in the evening." Zhu Muyun said.

Liu Quan originally wanted to be angry, how could anyone shout his name? I still have a meal together, and my own dinner is scheduled for next month, can I eat with someone casually? He was about to refuse, when suddenly it sounded, this was Zhu Muyun's voice, and he immediately lowered his posture.

"Director Zhu, it's you. Where to eat, I'll come right away. Liu Quan said busily that although he is now the director, he knows very well how he became the director.

Moreover, the Salt Political Bureau and the Economic Department have reached a strategic partnership. If he wants to smuggle his salt, he doesn't have to be so troublesome at all. In the past, Li Yanhan's method was to use a license repeatedly. As long as you check carefully, you can find clues. But now, Black Salt is going out of the city, so it can be renamed.

For example, there is a batch of salt to be shipped out of Guxing, and Liu Quan has no extra licenses in his hands. This batch of salt will become black salt. However, when leaving the country, you can openly leave the city by exchanging salt for other goods, such as sugar, or cloth. As long as you go out of the city, you can still sell salt at a high price without a license.

It's just that this kind of cooperation has made the Salt Political Bureau and the Economic Department have a closer relationship. Although salt doesn't have much of an accident, his handle is all in Zhu Muyun's hands.

"Between us, eating is only secondary, and the main thing is to talk to you about something." Zhu Muyun said that he never stayed overnight in the things that Li Bangfan confessed. Today, he will handle the matter well, and strive to report to Li Bangfan as soon as he returns in the evening.

What Zhu Muyun wants to tell Liu Quan actually has an element of testing. He helped Liu Quan to take the position, although he collected some money, but only a batch of gold bars could not buy a director of the salt administration. In addition to financial interests, there must also be political ambitions. Politically, they must be like-minded.

Zhu Muyun analyzed the political dynamics of the whole country to Liu Quan. In March this year, a new government was formed in Nanjing, and there was only one political party in the country, and that was the Kuomintang. At this time, He Peilu and Shi Xinquan formed the Republic of China Republican Party, isn't this a confrontation with the central government in Nanjing?

"Liu Quan, if you join the Republican Party of the Republic of China, it means that your political life will be over." Zhu Muyun said with a sigh.

"What then? President Shi turned out to be the chairman of the Senate and the chairman of the finance committee, and he was my old chief. He personally invited me, and I couldn't help but say yes. Liu Quan said embarrassedly.

"So, before you join, you have to think about the way out. If they do this, the Nanjing government will be extremely dissatisfied. Someday, this party will be dissolved. If you join now, you will be blacklisted by the central government in Nanjing. Later, the party was dissolved, and Chairman He and President Shi remained the same. But you, I'm afraid it won't end well. Zhu Muyun said bluntly.

"Thank you Director Zhu for reminding me, I will consider it carefully." Liu Quan took out his handkerchief and kept wiping it, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. It was only when he became the director of the bureau that he realized what politics really was.

In the final analysis, Li Yanhan is actually a political victim. Otherwise, with his identity and family background, how could he have been shot? And what he is doing now is even better than Li Yanhan. Once the Japanese turn their faces, he will die worse than Li Yanhan.

"Of course, there are two sides to everything. Sometimes, a bad thing can become a good thing. Zhu Muyun said with a smile.

"How do you do good things?" Liu Quan said in surprise that since Zhu Muyun had explained the matter to him, he must have already taken a countermeasure. Otherwise, it would not be good for him to join the Republican Party of the Republic of China, and it would not be good if he did not join.

If you join this party, as Zhu Muyun said, after the liquidation, these low-level personnel will naturally become the target of attack. If you don't join, He Peilu is the current governor, Shi Xinquan is the president of Zhongjiang Industrial Bank, and he is also the vice president of the Republic of China.

In Guxing, if you offend these two people, how can you live your life? Joining the Republican Party of the Republic of China will be miserable in the future. If you don't join, you may be miserable now.

"Being in Cao Ying, being in Han." Zhu Muyun said slowly.

"You mean, I'm a spy in there?" Liu Quan frowned, which made him very embarrassed. If it is discovered, if it is not done well, it will be spurned. It's not easy to be a traitor. If you are a traitor, it will be even more shameless to be a traitor. When the time comes, he himself will look down on himself.

"It's not like being a spy, it's just that you and I often communicate with each other, and you can also often introduce the situation of your party to him and develop me to join the Republic of China Republican Party." Zhu Muyun said meaningfully. He knew that Liu Quan was already tempted, but he still needed a reason.

"Well, you can consider it." Liu Quan finally understood that Zhu Muyun just needed to grasp the latest movements of the Republican Party of the Republic of China. Now that the Republican Party of the Republic of China is in a period of expansion, it is normal for him to recruit Zhu Muyun into the party and to publicize the policies and programs of the Republican Party of the Republic of China with him.

"Don't worry, Governor He and Chairman Wang will become a family in the end." Zhu Muyun said with a smile.

Zhu Muyun explained some details to Liu Quan, for Liu Quan, Zhu Muyun is a professional agent. Zhu Muyun told Liu Quan that in case of emergency, he could notify himself in code. If you can't find someone, you can find someone from the economic department, whether it is Ren Jiyuan or Wang Qiang, Zhu Muyun can be trusted.

The Salt Political Bureau and the Economic Department are now in a cooperative relationship, and Liu Quan has dealings with Ren Jiyuan and Wang Qiang, and others will not say anything. Zhu Muyun and Liu Quan agreed to meet every three days. As for the location, it is not mandatory. With the identities of Liu Quan and Zhu Muyun, drinking tea and eating between them is really nothing.

After confessing to Liu Quan, Zhu Muyun was ready to go home. But he was still on Zhongshan Avenue, and when he was about to arrive at Baishi Road, he suddenly saw the meeting code that Hu Mengbei left for him. Zhu Muyun hurriedly turned around and went to Chaoyang Lane. [.]
