A later economist once said that moderate corruption can stimulate the economy.

Li Weimin is not an economist and does not know whether this theory is correct or not, but one thing is certain: moderate extravagance in this place of embankment can stimulate the economy.

"Chaoqun", "Zhu Nianhua Cantonese Opera Troupe", "Yongtongqing Chaoqu Opera Society" and other large and small performing arts groups and major martial arts halls with lion dance teams rely on performing performances during the Spring Festival every year and performing for big families such as the Li family and the Wu family to survive, and the same is true for large and small restaurants and restaurants, all relying on their own people to take care of their business.

As early as a few years ago, people came to make an appointment, and if they didn't handle it well, others would be disappointed and even gossip behind their backs.

In short, you must be frugal when you should be frugal on the embankment, and you must be beautiful when you should be beautiful!

At this time last year, Li Weimin once returned to the embankment as a member of the government refugee committee to pay tribute to the gods, beat gongs and drums to parade the streets, and gave out red envelopes when he saw children.

Today is the wedding day, and it is more lively than last year.

The groom wore a top hat, a black silk coat, and a big red flower on his chest, sitting in the car and slowly followed, on both sides were the lion dance teams of several major martial arts halls, Ma Anyi, Wu Changming, Huang Ziheng and other people who picked up their relatives together all changed into silk clothes and silk pants, some helped sprinkle candy and smoke, and some ran before and after Zhang Luo set off firecrackers, the real drum music was noisy, and the firecrackers rang out.

The foreigner police brigade has arrested gang members, the national army has eradicated the warlords of the Pingchuan faction, and the large-scale manhunt that has just ended has hardly affected the people. If it weren't for the police and the industrial estate security team to maintain order. There is no way to go this way.

"This way. Don't rob, have it all! ”

Gu Pingchun stood on the last truck, sprinkled candy with his brothers, and screamed wherever he spilled.

The Li family and the Wu family are separated by two streets, less than three kilometers and walked for more than an hour. Let the roadside restaurants that participate in the banquet distribute on behalf of the guests, so that the neighbors are satisfied, and the most worrying stampede will not occur.

Ordinary citizens don't care about the actions at night, and the Wu family can't take it seriously.

The Viet Minh elements came for their son-in-law, and last night's action was a preemptive strike by the son-in-law, who knows if there are any fish that have slipped through the net outside, and who knows if they will take risks. And he sent them away.

I look forward to it every day, every month. I finally looked forward to this day.

Wu Lijun sat beside her husband in a red silk coat and a red hijab, took his hand and asked secretly, "Husband, are there many people outside?" ”

"Many, crowded, it is estimated that all the people in the fifth county are here."

I have been "living together" for a long time before, except for not crossing the last line of defense, I have done almost everything else that should be done, and I am not a "traditional bride" in the real sense. The identity of her husband and the current situation made her have to think about some things other than the wedding, and she couldn't help asking: "There are so many people, there won't be an accident, right?" ”

Li Weimin looked at the military police who were trying their best to maintain order in the parking space, and said without confidence: "Be prepared, it shouldn't be." ”

……

A few families are happy and a few are sad.

The arranged marriage of the Li and Wu families finally came to fruition, and Li Weimin finally got the beauty back and was on his way back to the Li family's mansion to worship the church. Zhang Qianwen and Zhuang Shiwu, who had just returned to Fude Middle School, sat in the teacher's dormitory and watched each other.

It's over, it's completely over!

The organizations in the fifth, sixth, and seventh districts suffered serious losses, especially in the fifth district, where the old comrades and peripheral members were almost wiped out, and not only could the action against the Chinese not be continued, but now even their own safety could not be guaranteed.

The superiors sent the person in front of him to lead the work of the embankment Huayun, and Zhuang Shiwu welcomed it. However, Zhuang Shiwu had reservations about the actions he had formulated at yesterday's meeting. After all, the embankment is not another place, and the environment for struggle is harsh, and if you are not careful, you will be ruined.

"Comrade Tong Wen, this time is not the same as before, our identities will soon be exposed, and it is too late for you to withdraw now."

Some cadres who infiltrated the south "surrendered" to the puppet government because they could not bear the suffering, and so many comrades fell into the hands of the police, and no one dared to guarantee that there would be traitors among them.

Although it was very dangerous, Zhang Qianwen still didn't want to withdraw like this, took out a cigarette and groaned: "If the operation is aimed at us at night, it means that our identity has already been exposed, and we can't withdraw if we want to." If it hadn't come at us, everything was just a coincidence, then we didn't have to retreat, but we should find a way to rescue us. ”

On the way back, I inquired, including outsiders who did not register with the police station in accordance with the regulations, and arrested more than 900 people last night. Some have been bailed, some fugitives who have committed crimes in urban areas have been handed over to the police stations of districts 1 and 2, and police stations of districts 5 and 6 have held "introspection classes" to educate those who have not turned in their guns.

With so many comrades arrested, the assassination must have been exposed, but it does not mean that the police were brought in for Hua.

The fighting environment is bad, he has always been very cautious, most of them are one-line contacts, there are not many people who have seen Zhang Qianwen, only one has been arrested, as long as Lao Pan is rescued, his identity will not be exposed.

Zhuang Shiwu weighed it and agreed: "Since you have made up your mind, then we will find a way to rescue you." ”

"How can I save it?"

"Students ask their classmates, teachers, and principals to come forward, and others have to figure it out through their families."

While they were interceding with contacts everywhere, Gui Qingshan was sitting in his office in a two-story building opposite the Fifth County Police Station, studying the latest materials provided by the police station with Ben Chaoren, Yang Gong, and other intelligence officers of the "Yuehua Literature and Art Research Association."

With sufficient funds and the cooperation of all quarters, this intelligence organization, which is "affiliated" to the name of the Republican Youth League and does not even have an official name, has developed into a behemoth in just six months.

It has its own training course on Phu Quoc Island, a military training base in Zhensha, secret work stations in various nong settlements, the 5th Infantry Division, and various industrial villages, and its own eyes and ears in government departments and the national army, and will set up work stations in Laos and Cambodia next.

The reason why the anti-corruption campaign of the industrial investment company has been so smooth is largely due to their contributions, and it can be said that the audit and supervision department of the industrial investment company is their branch.

Gui Qingshan put down the materials, looked up at the Vietminh organizational chart on the wall and said, "Yang Gong, inform Section Chief Lin and ask him to find an opportunity to release the feudal rebellion." ”

The Intelligence Section of the Police Department focuses on law and order and has no affiliation with Gui Thanh Son's organization, but respects his views whenever Vietminh elements are involved.

Yang Gong was the youngest supervisor in the organization, who had worked in the intelligence department of the French Expeditionary Force, he pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Boss, he has so many arms in his possession, it's not easy to put them away." ”

The so-called not very easy to put is not because the police station does not agree, but how to make Huayun not suspicious.

Ben Chaoren put the materials in his hand, and smiled casually: "If it's not easy to put it, then don't let it go, lock him up for a few months on the grounds of secretly possessing guns and ammunition, and allow his family to visit." ”

It is not a bad idea to not arouse suspicion and get him to pass on the news. Yang Gong nodded slightly, and asked again: "What about the others, did you take this opportunity to rebel against a few?" ”

Gui Qingshan got up and said with a smile: "Although Hua-Yun is led by the Vietminh, there is still a difference between it and the Vietminh. Whether or not they have been in prison is a kind of seniority for the Viet Minh, especially for the top level of the Viet Minh, but not for the Chinese movement, once they are arrested, it is very difficult to gain trust, and it will take at least a long time to investigate. ”

"But we're running out of people right now."

"Let the trainees of the Zhenshaban and Xining classes finish ahead of schedule, and then ask Section Chief Lin to transfer a few from the police training class."

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

The strategy of the "Yuehua Literature and Art Research Association" is very simple, you make a fuss, I will strike at you once, knock out all your subordinates and peripheral personnel, and then send people to let you develop a new organization, until the Chinese movement on the embankment is completely hollowed out.

Yang Gong walked out of the office, and Ben Chaoren said in a low voice while packing up the papers: "After this battle, Huayun is estimated to stop for a while, and then we have to focus on Wu Tingjiao." ”

"Did he pay attention to us?"

"No, but the CIA was noted."

Political turmoil in South Vietnam is not a good thing, and political stability is not a good thing for the Chinese.

It was precisely because of the danger of Vietminh from the outside and the opposition from the inside that the Fifth Infantry Division could exist, the embankment could be in the hands of the Chinese, and the industrial village security forces and the resettlement village self-defense forces could develop.

From this point of view, the "Vietnamese Chinese Literature and Art Research Association" and North Vietnam only had long-term contradictions, not short-term conflicts. As long as they don't come to the embankment to make trouble, as long as they don't affect the construction of various industrial villages, and as long as they don't launch an all-out attack like North Korea, then they can make trouble as much as they want, and the more fierce the trouble, the better.

By contrast, the increasingly stable South Vietnamese government and the South Vietnamese bureaucracy, which looked down on the industrial investment companies, were more threatening.

Gui Qingshan took off the Viet Minh's organizational chart in South Vietnam on the wall and asked thoughtfully, "Lansdale has another move?" ”

"Ngo Dinh Kyo discovered that the CIA has developed intelligence officers within the national army, and many officers now only listen to American advisers, and yesterday they got angry and meddled in military affairs, and removed three battalion-level officers in a row."

Accepting US aid, but not willing to be a puppet of the United States, how can there be such a good thing in the world.

Gui Qingshan realized that this was an opportunity to muddy the waters, turned around and smiled: "Old Ben, let's keep an eye on the inner line of the national army to see who is close to the Americans." ”

If a few people are not removed, how can a junior officer have a chance to be promoted? If the junior officers are not promoted, how can the officers of the security team of the industrial investment company have the opportunity to join the national army?

Ben Chaoren smiled tacitly: "Boss, in fact, there are many pro-American factions in the government. (To be continued.) )
