The disappearance of Mingbeile soon spread in the capital and abroad, and the reporters of the tabloids gave full play to their imagination to speculate on the truth of the matter: some said that they were kidnapped by the enemy, some said that they went to the countryside farm for fun, and even pointed the finger at his fellow brother Zhongzhubeile, and said that Shubeile secretly killed his sibling in order to seize the family property. The Rui Wangfu was even more chaotic, and the family members of Ming Beiler's faction were naturally anxious, and sent people everywhere to investigate the whereabouts of Lord Beile; In order to get rid of the suspicion of killing his brother, the people of the Zhongshu Baylor family also made a big effort to find someone, but in fact, they privately didn't want Mingbeile to disappear in the past. Mingbeile spends his days drinking and drinking, rarely goes home, and often goes to Tianjin, Jinan, and Taiyuan to have fun, and it is indeed a bit difficult for his family to find it.

However, people with ulterior motives soon released the news that a few days ago, Mingbeile and his party appeared in the area of Shahe Town in the northern suburbs, and some of the additional residents also heard the sound of gunfights. In this way, people who have a heart immediately find out the direction, and the number of people who go to the northern suburbs to inquire is obviously more. The Kyoshi Police Agency also sent people to investigate, and some people in the department were entrusted to send a telegram to the only local garrison, asking for cooperation in finding the whereabouts of Mingbeile.

Commander Tang was not surprised, as if all this happened had nothing to do with him, and he continued his great cause of practicing calligraphy leisurely in the regiment headquarters, and made significant progress after several months of training calligraphy.

"Commander, there are people outside asking to see you!" Zhou Wenruo walked in lightly and said softly: "It looks like I'm dressed like I'm from the capital." ”

"Let him in!" Tang Zhidao didn't raise his head, and said lightly. The news has been released, and what should have come should have come, since Ding Qiuyang is fine, of course it is time for this fat sheep to be cashed, but how to cash it out is a big problem. At present, the central finances of the Beiyang government have been extremely embarrassed, and it has been learned that starting in the next year, all departments in Beijing will only be paid half a salary, and all army departments directly under the central government will only be able to pay a maximum of 80 percent of their salaries.

After a while, a half-hundred-year-old man wearing a black top hat, a horse coat and a long shirt, black leather shoes, and a walking stick followed Zhou Wenruo in.

"I've seen Captain Tang!" As soon as the half-hundred old man entered the door, he bowed politely.

"My husband is polite, please take a seat." Tang Zhidao put down the brush and replied with a salute and instructed: "Yupu, pour a cup of tea for the old man." ”

After the two sides sat down, Tang Zhidao asked straight to the point: "I don't know what the old man has to say here?" ”

"I don't dare to teach him, I just ask Captain Tang about someone." The half-hundred-year-old man took a sip of tea, frowned slightly and said, what good tea can there be in this mountain and countryside.

"Oh!" Tang Zhidao pretended to be surprised and said: "My husband came to me to find someone, but I'm afraid I'm looking for the wrong place!" ”

"Commander Tang, let's stop talking darkly." The half-hundred-hundred-year-old man stood up and clenched his fists and said: "The old man is Zhang Guotai, the chief butler of the Ruiwang Mansion, who has come to investigate the whereabouts of the second son in the mansion, Zhongming Baylor. ”

"Humbele?" Tang Zhidao continued to pretend to be stupid and said: "That's a well-known stubborn lord in the capital, how could he come to my poor country!" "It's so easy for an old thing to cheat Lao Tzu.

"Head Tang, can you talk alone?" Zhang Guotai rolled his eyes and whispered.

"To put it bluntly, these are all my henchmen." Tang Zhidao said casually, which moved Zhou Wenruo and Wang Guozhen on the side.

"A little meaning, not a respect!" Zhang Guotai hesitated for a moment, but still took out a banker ticket from his pocket and handed it over.

"Zhangguanjia, what do you mean by this?" Tang Zhidao glanced at it, but didn't take it, but said coldly: "Tang has never seen your Lord Belle!" "Hengtai Qianzhuang's 3,000 oceans ticket, the joke is worth these dollars, and the price in Tang's heart is at least 30,000 oceans. …,

"Captain Tang, this is just a deposit!" Zhang Guotai has been in the society for many years, so he naturally heard the meaning of Tang's words at once.

"It's done, this number!" Seeing that Tang Zhidao still didn't react, Zhang Guotai hurriedly opened his five fingers and said.

"Guozhen, take the chapter steward to meet that master!" Tang Zhidao commanded when he saw that he had reached the price in his heart.

"Yes, this old gentleman, you come with me!" Wang Guozhen said knowingly, took the lead and walked out of the regiment headquarters, and Zhang Guotai also quietly followed.

"Commander, just let it go?" After the two of them walked away, Zhou Wenruo asked suspiciously: "Will Camp Chief Zhang have any opinions?" "After all, the two dead were soldiers of the second battalion, although Ding Qiuyang said that he saved his life, but he was also useless.

"I've already told him that the bereavement pension will be given several times more." Tang Zhidao said helplessly: "Yupu, I also had to make this decision. "It is naturally a very happy thing to punish this evil Manchu Qing Baylor Ye Ming, but it is impossible at this stage; If you dispose of it secretly, you will inevitably leak the rumors, and in the end, you will be affected by yourself; The most important thing is that there is really no money in the group, and it would be too sorry for me to let such a big fat sheep not be slaughtered.

"Instructor, don't worry, you are good to your brothers, everyone remembers it." Zhou Wenruo said gratefully, when he was in the military academy before, he only saw the stern and stubborn side of Tang Zhidao, and in the past few months, he has felt the other side of Tang Zhidao's patience and meticulousness, especially when he eats, lives and trains with ordinary soldiers, I am afraid that there are few in the whole of China.

"Now there is discord between the government and the court, the confrontation between the north and the south, and the strong enemy outside, we should work together to train an elite army for the country and the people!" Since the outbreak of the "Zhengjiatun Incident" in mid-August, the Japanese government's increase in troops in the northeast has put tremendous pressure on the Chinese government.

"Instructor, do you think there will be a fight in the Northeast this time?" Zhou Wenruo said movingly: "If you really go to the Northeast, I will apply for the next company!" ”

"Probably not!" Tang Zhidao shook his head and said: "If you want to fight outside, you must first settle inside, today's China has no strength to fight at all, and the Japanese are just bluffing to get some benefits, and in the end, it must end with our apology!" ”

"Are we just watching little Japan do whatever it wants in China? What a disgrace to the soldiers of my generation! Zhou Wenruo said indignantly: "What are those in power in the capital for!" ”

"It's hard! The princes who are in charge of the capital are also struggling to support. Now that Europe is in full swing, Britain and France have no time to look eastward, Germany and Russia are unable to protect themselves, the United States is far away from the ocean, and the huge China and Japan are dominant, so there is no choice but to compromise at this time. Tang Zhidao said slowly: "What's more, the central government's finances are extremely difficult at present, and only Japan may still provide loans. ”

"Isn't borrowing from Japan a drink to quench your thirst?" Zhou Wenruo frowned and said that Japan's loan did not have political conditions attached.

"You have to borrow to quench your thirst, otherwise the banner of the central government will not be able to resist." Tang Zhidao said with a wry smile, the current situation is indeed quite difficult, it is difficult for anyone to sit in that position and make a big difference, Lao Yuan has already lost the last chance.

"Captain, we're back." Wang Guozhen: They came back to interrupt this unpleasant conversation.

"So fast?" Tang Zhidao asked in surprise, it was only ten minutes before and after they went out, and the time was enough to fight back and forth.

"Zhang just needs to confirm that the person is right." Zhang Guotai took the initiative to solve his confusion, he just glanced at it from a distance, it was not the Belle Lord in the mansion, although he was a little haggard after being imprisoned for a few days, but people couldn't fake it.

"Can the Zhang Guan's family be the master?" Tang Zhidao was more curious, and it seemed that the Zhang Guanjia did not communicate with Ming Beile. …,

"Don't worry, Commander Tang, Lord Beile has carte blanche to entrust Zhang to deal with this matter!" Zhang Guotai said with an oath.

"Bolt Baylor is really a good brother, willing to spend a lot of money!" Tang Zhidao smiled approvingly and said, no matter what the rumors are in the outside world, brothers are brothers after all.

"Since the disappearance of Ming Baylor, Lord Beile has been unable to sleep and eat, and he is anxious, and many parties have sent people to investigate." Zhang Guotai also spoke greatly for his master.

"I don't know how Steward Zhang plans to trade?" Tang Zhidao was obviously more interested in when he would get the money.

"This, this ......" Steward Zhang looked at Zhou Wenruo and the others in embarrassment, and kept hesitating.

"Now you can say it!" Zhou Wenruo and the others left very interestingly, and only Tang Zhang and the others were left in the room.

"Captain Tang, can you take a step to speak?" Zhang Guotai was still not at ease for fear that someone would eavesdrop, so Tang Zhidao had no choice but to lead him inside.

"If Captain Tang can ...... that person, as long as he sees the head, he will pay immediately!" Zhang Guotai said in a low voice, and gestured with his right hand to chop.

"This—this is too hateful!" Tang Zhidao was dumbfounded, it turned out that this chapter country was here to ask for his life, no wonder as long as he made sure that the person was right.

"Commander Tang, I can't complain about our Lord Belle, you also know what Ming Belle is, if you go on like this, the little money in the Rui Wangfu will be completely defeated by him sooner or later." Zhang Guotai said with a little hatred that iron does not become steel, in fact, in the final analysis, it is for the ten thousand family fortunes of the Rui Wangfu.

"Impossible, how can a dignified soldier in Tang do such a thing!" Tang Zhidao categorically refused, wanting to use Lao Tzu as a gunman, no way! When the time comes, Lao Tzu will really kill someone, you will not admit it with a touch of your ass, Lao Tzu will not get a penny, and you will have to carry the black pot!

"How's that number?" Seeing Tang Zhidao's refusal, Zhang Guotai raised his hands again and said, "We can pay 10,000 first!" ”

"Do you want me to say it a second time? What kind of person are you Lao Tzu! Tang Zhidao sneered and said, "Zhang Guo, please!" ”

"Captain Tang is angry, Captain Tang is angry!" Zhang Guotai hurriedly apologized and said: "If you don't change the proposal, as long as the head of the Tang regiment can close that person for one or two more months, the price is negotiable!" "A month or two is enough time for Baylor to transfer and embezzle the property of the house.

"This can be considered!" Tang Zhidao also calmed down, and now most of the family property of Rui Wangfu is in the hands of Zhongming and Zhongshuo.

"That's a deposit!" Zhang Guotai hurriedly handed over the ticket of Hengtai Qianzhuang again, although he couldn't complete the first goal, it was not bad to be able to complete the second goal.

"Humph! Lao Tzu has also helped you a lot. This time, Tang Zhidao took the banker's ticket with peace of mind, and finally had the first entry in several months.

(The collection is too bad, you can help a lot!) ）
