There are no rules.

It was already more than 8 o'clock in the evening after discussing the company's organization and its formation methods, powers, rules of procedure, the company's finance, accounting, auditing and labor employment systems, as well as the company's work direction for the next three months.

Walking out of the building and looking at the lights in the harbor, Professor Anderson said with self-deprecation: "Lee, we are lucky compared to diplomats." ”

Li Weimin shook hands with Chen Shiguo and said goodbye, while looking back and smiling: "We have only been open for one day, and they have been driving in Geneva for 70 days, and it is said that they often stay up all night, which is indeed luckier than them." ”

There are debates and differences, but no one can deny that today's board meeting was a success.

The company's articles of association and the direction of work have been determined, and the next step will be carried out step by step, and the second board of directors after three months will not have so many controversies and disagreements, and only need to listen to the report of general manager Liu Jiachang.

Thinking of the bright prospects of the industrial village plan and the series of agreements announced in the morning, Chen Shiguo sighed: "More importantly, we have reached a consensus, and we will unite as one, and we will not bring arguments and differences to the company's operation, unlike the result they negotiated in the end." ”

"A weak country has no diplomacy, and if you want a good result, you can only become strong first." Li Weimin sighed lightly, opened the car door and said, "Everyone, I went to Jialong Palace, did I stop by?" ”

Premier Dinh Diem and Mr. Dinh Diem definitely don't care about understanding the situation of the industrial investment company now, Chen Shiguo and Wu Andong glanced at each other, shook their heads and said: "Chairman, no need, our home is very close to here, we will go back by ourselves." ”

As I inquired about the other day, they are highly respected by students and legal professionals in Hanoi, and they support Ngo Dinh Diem because there is no better person to support.

If they are the kind of villains who covet glory and wealth and flattery, with their relationship with Ngo Dinh Diem and Ngo Dinh Ng, they can go to work in government departments, instead of coming to an industrial investment company that has not yet been officially operated.

Supporting now is not the same as supporting in the future, not to mention that they are colleagues now, belonging to the kind of objects that must be united, of course Li Weimin will not always let them walk to and from work like this, turned around and said: "Director Ruan, please send Mr. Guo and Mr. Dong; Manager Liu, go buy two cars tomorrow and ask for two drivers. ”

Liu Jiachang was more thoughtful than him in this regard, holding on to the car door and smiling: "Chairman, four new cars have been ordered, but they will not arrive until the end of the month." Mr. Guo and Mr. Dong can use my car to travel these days, anyway, I don't go out much when I live in the company. ”

"Okay, that's all."

The threat of the Pingchuan faction has been lifted for the time being, and there is no need to travel as exaggerated as before. Ah Cheng drove, and Gu Jianhua, who had never been to the Prime Minister's Office, volunteered to be a bodyguard.

At the afternoon meeting, Lin Jiasheng received more than a dozen telegrams, all about the southward migration of compatriots in Nong District.

"The first batch of villagers left on time at one o'clock in the afternoon, and Brother Wang personally led a battalion of armed escorts. Farm tools, clothing, and daily necessities were all that could be brought with them. In order to ensure that the other personnel could evacuate south safely, the villagers did not burn down their houses before leaving, and the rice in the fields was not touched. ”

"That's right, it's not a high-rise building, there is no point in destroying it, it just gives people a handle. As for the rice in the field, it is only considered grain when it is well managed, matured, and harvested, and it is early before the autumn harvest, no one weeds and no one fertilizes, God knows how much it can be harvested, so there is no need to bother with that. ”

Ruan Mingxiu smiled and said, "At that time, they were angry, after all, safe evacuation is the first priority. ”

Li Weimin nodded slightly, motioning for her to continue.

"The evacuation is in order from far to near, so as to ensure that the northernmost villagers can be resupplied by the villagers in the south. The villagers were very cooperative, and all the food that they couldn't take away was donated. Counting those who were transferred to Haiphong some time ago, General Huang and Brother Wang estimated that everyone would be able to hold out for 25 days after arriving in Haiphong, and if the rations brought by the villagers themselves were counted, they would be able to hold out for at least a month. ”

Prepared and unprepared, organized and unorganized, it's not the same.

If they are able to hold out in Haiphong for a month, they can make a difference in time and use this time to solicit international assistance.

Li Weimin thought about it for a while, looked up and said: "This grain must be taken care of, if I can board the ship early and don't waste it, I will try my best to sell the surplus grain to the refugee committee, or exchange grain for food." ”

There were so many refugees gathered in Haiphong, and the wharf was full of eyes, and they still had to deal with the Vietnamese after retreating south, and they could not ignore so many refugees who were waiting to be fed, and blatantly transfer food to the south.

Ruan Minh Xiu responded, and then said with a solemn face: "Mr. Li, in order to show the determination of the Nong people to resolutely retreat south, in order to put pressure on the French, Runwei organized a death squad, occupied Pier No. 4 at about half past four in the afternoon, set up machine guns, and was strapped with explosives, and now it is confronting the French army. ”

These guys are so anxious!

Li Weimin gritted his teeth in anger, clenched his fists and asked, "Is there a firefight, is there a dead person?" ”

"Some time ago, they escorted machinery and equipment to the wharf every day, and the French troops stationed at the wharf did not take precautions, did not fire a single shot during the whole process, and did not hurt a single person."

Li Weimin breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and then asked, "What about those French troops?" ”

"Disarmed, all in one barracks."

"How many people have been imprisoned?"

"More than a hundred, it seems to be a company."

"How many of them are there?"

"Thirty-six, including Runwei."

Taking advantage of its unpreparedness, a platoon captured a company.

Li Weimin really didn't know whether to praise them or scold them, looking at Ruan Mingxiu's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he suddenly realized that this was not necessarily Chen Runwei's own opinion, it was probably instructed by Huang Yasheng, Zhang Yinggui and other old guys, and there may be greater actions.

"Go on, don't say half and leave half."

Ruan Mingxiu also thought that Huang Yasheng and the others were too hasty, and said cautiously: "The expeditionary force perfunctory General Huang and General Zhang for an afternoon, without a word accurate, and after Runwei and they occupied the dock, they even accused them of not restraining their subordinates. General Hoang Duqing did not receive any news and estimated that he would occupy the Hanoi airport as agreed in advance. ”

How much trouble do they want to make, Li Weimin was completely convinced, and asked with a frown: "Is it too late to stop it now?" ”

"It's too late, first, there is no radio on General Huang's side, and second, they may have already acted."

The officers in Nong District were all trained by the French, and some even went to France to study at military academies, and in the past seven years they have been comrades-in-arms in the trenches. They will not lay a dead hand on the French, and the French will not do it to them.

Thinking of this, Li Weimin felt helpless and smiled bitterly: "Since it has become like this, you might as well make a bigger fuss." As soon as you arrive at Jialong Palace, you will go back and ask Ah Sheng to contact my father urgently and ask my father to find ways to create public opinion. The same is true in Saigon, Hong Kong, and Singapore, in short, mobilizing all the forces that can be mobilized to create public opinion. ”

The people of the Nong region had always supported the French army, and the children of the Nong had always fought alongside the French army, and the Geneva Accords stipulated that the people living in the north could move freely.

In other words, the French side has the responsibility and obligation to help the people of the Nong area to retreat south. If they don't ask, then they will be abandoned, betrayed, and if they don't talk about morality at all, they will be drowned by public opinion.

Ruan Mingxiu nodded, choked up and said, "Coming to this point, this is the only way." ”
