Xia Yang convened a committee meeting after listening to Sun Tianhao's intentions, and consulted Qin Songwang and others. Qin Songwang was officially appointed as the director of the Guangzhou office, and will take Lan Phoenix, Huo Chengze, and Long Hongyun to be stationed in Guangzhou. They have only one task, to use trade and interests to firmly tie Zhang Jingxin to Yulin Bay.

In view of this, Zheng Jiang, as chairman of the Military Commission, issued an order to Wang Hua, that the Second General Affairs Department should send additional personnel to Guangzhou to absolutely protect the safety of these people.

Wang Hua took this opportunity to make a request to the Central Military Commission, requesting that the Second General Affairs Department be separated from the military academy and set up a separate department. With the expansion of the workload and scope of work of the Second General Affairs Department, its core personnel, including peripheral personnel, have changed from the earliest eight people to more than 300 now, and expatriates like Ge Tao still have no clear identity and explanation. There are only three or four hundred cadets at the Yulin Bay Military Academy, and it is a bit inappropriate for such a department with a large number of personnel to hang the sign of the Second General Affairs Department, not to mention that the Second General Affairs Department is now open within the Yulin Army, and everyone knows that this department is an intelligence department.

Zheng Jiang convened a meeting of the Military Commission on this issue, Han Wantao, Zeng Guangxian, and Leng Tianbing went to Taiwan, and Lin Zhaolong went to Vietnam, and there were only three members of the Military Commission at home, Zhang Guodong, Xu Lang, and Wang Hua, and even if Zheng Jiang was added, there were only four people. There was no need to vote on this issue at all, and everyone agreed.

The Second Department of General Affairs was abolished, and a new Yulin Army Security Department was established, which was directly subordinate to the leadership of the Military Commission. The Minister of Security was concurrently served by Wang Hua, and the First Vice Minister He Jiong, who was promoted to lieutenant colonel in the ranks. The Ministry of Security has full authority to decide on the establishment of its internal organs, and it is sufficient to report to the Military Commission for the record.

Based on this situation, Xu Lang also submitted a proposal to the Military Commission, requesting that the General Staff also set up an independent intelligence department to integrate with the Ministry of Security. Leng Tianbing is still the head of the Intelligence Department, but Leng Tianbing's main work at present is not in intelligence at all, and the General Staff Department has not yet had a department dedicated to top-secret intelligence analysis. Xu Lang suggested setting up a General Staff Department No. 3 to be responsible for this aspect of work, directly responsible for himself and Leng Tianbing, and subordinate to the Ministry of Intelligence. The director of the Third Division of the General Staff was designated as Zheng Lei, the lieutenant who followed Ge Tao to the Yayik River to intercept the Taomin liaison team, and he is still in the combat department, and he is already a captain. Xu Lang meant to appoint Zheng Lei as the major director of the Third Division.

There was no big problem with this proposal, and the Military Commission agreed, and the Third Department of the General Staff Department was formally established.

When Sun Tianhao led a group of people to Guangzhou, it was already early September, and nearly 20 people from four families plus maids and servants all lived in Yao Dexiang's house at once, Yao Chun had not seen his father and brother for more than a year, and the father and daughter brothers and sisters couldn't help but hug their headaches and cry when they met.

Yao Dexiang's father's name is Yao Zhongtian, and he is nearly sixty years old this year, but his body is still tough. With the power of Yulin Bay, the Yao family's business in Guangzhou has been booming in recent years, and it has expanded several times more than before.

Yao Dexiang set up a banquet in a restaurant in Guangzhou, and invited his brother-in-law and people from Yulin Bay. Sun Tianhao gave a detailed introduction to the Canton Fair and Yao Dexiang, and Yao Dexiang also knew about the Yulin Bay Qiong Fair last year, but he didn't go in person. Now listening to what his brother-in-law said, Yao Dexiang patted his chest and promised to help Sun Tianhao find a suitable place and strive to open this Canton Fair at the end of the year.

Sun Tianhao made another request to his brother-in-law, asking to find a relatively large courtyard near Yao's house to house Qin Songwang and them. Sun Tianhao felt that it was better to live together or live together, so that it would be convenient for the people of the Ministry of Security to protect them. Yao Dexiang repeatedly agreed to Sun Tianhao's request.

Finding a place to hold the Canton Fair in Guangzhou is no better than in Yulin Bay, where there are available everywhere, not to mention that it is already early September, and Sun Tianhao has to rush back to Yulin Bay to participate in the opening ceremony of this year's Qiong Fair, so there is only one month left for him.

Sun Tianhao, accompanied by Yao Dexiang, traveled around Guangzhou for a few days, and finally chose an address. This place is relatively close to Guangzhou Bay, which is suitable for the transportation of goods, but it is far away from the city of Guangzhou, and there are no houses. Now that the existing exhibition hall is too late, Sun Tianhao had to find someone to temporarily build a few sheds, and the rest can only be exhibited in the open air.

In the past few days, Sun Tianhao has been busy with the Canton Fair, and Qin Songwang came over as soon as he returned to Yaofu in the evening.

"Tianhao, I'm tired for another day, when will I go back to Yulin Bay."

Sun Tianhao replied tiredly: "I'll leave in almost ten days, I still have to rush back to prepare for the Qiong Fair, and I have to ask you for the matter here." ”

Qin Songwang looked at Sun Tianhao and said with a smile: "Isn't it a little inconsiderate to arrange the Qiong Fair and the Canton Fair at the same time." ”

"Well, who said it wasn't." Sun Tianhao shook his head, "I'm too nervous, not to mention that the place is not well prepared, now those merchants have basically gone to Yulin Bay, and there are very few people who come to Guangzhou, I'm worried that this cannon will become a squib." But this is my suggestion, and the crossing assembly also approved, and it is too late to say anything. ”

"Tianhao." Qin Songwang asked again, "The committee appointed me as the director of the Guangzhou office, and Huo Chengze and Long Hongyun and their families all came to Guangzhou, how do I think this matter is not just as simple as the Canton Fair." ”

Sun Tianhao's eyes widened: "You can do it, Lao Qin, you are worthy of being the chairman of the committee for a year, and you can analyze problems." ”

"Huh." Qin Songwang said with a smile, "Don't be sloppy with me, tell me if you have any other tasks at home as soon as possible." ”

"It's not a task." Sun Tianhao told Xu Lang's thoughts to Qin Songwang in detail.

"You said my mission is to get in touch with Zhang Jingxin?" Qin Songwang fell into deep thought.

"That's what we aim for." Sun Tianhao explained, "But there is no way to do it, and you don't have to be too anxious, at present, it is the first thing to do a good job in this Canton Fair." ”

Qin Songwang pondered for a while: "Tianhao, I have an idea, how about postponing the Canton Fair to next year?" ”

"Postponed until next year?" Sun Tianhao was stunned, "Why postpone it until next year?" ”

"Tianhao, you think." Qin Songwang analyzed, "Except for you, these of us are basically coming to Guangzhou for the first time, and we are not familiar with the place, although we have your father-in-law's help, but as soon as you leave, we will basically be blind." But you can't help but go, the Qiong Fair is still waiting for you. Besides, there are very few merchants who come to Guangzhou at present, and as you said, most of them go to Yulin Bay. Our current meeting place is not good, we don't even have a house, if we really want to open the Canton Fair like this, I'm afraid those businessmen also have opinions. You see if this will work, you can arrange the work and go back to Yulin Bay to prepare for the Qiong Fair, here, your brother-in-law and I will make good preparations and get the meeting site first. After you go back to Yulin Bay, discuss it with your family, let Xu Lang come to Guangzhou, and it is best to call Wang Kezong as well. ”

"Why did you call Xu Lang to come, and why did Wang Kezong also come?" Sun Tianhao didn't understand what Qin Songwang meant.

"Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao are all gone, Xu Lang is a third-grade general canonized by the imperial court, and he has an official body." Qin Songwang explained, "Wang Kezong is the prefect of Qiongzhou and a civil official. I would like to take this opportunity of the Canton Fair to invite Zhang Jingxin and the officials in Guangzhou, Wang Kezong is here to talk better. Let's make good preparations, wait for the end of the Qiong Fair, and then open the Canton Fair in the spring of next year, so that there is no problem with the time, and you can prepare in advance; Second, those merchants can also come to Guangzhou directly after participating in the Qiong Fair, and there is no conflict. ”

Sun Tianhao pondered carefully for a while, and gave a thumbs up to Qin Songwang: "Okay, this method is good, I'll arrange it, go back to Yulin Bay immediately, and I'll leave it to you here." ”
