Chapter 693: Public Opinion (I)

On the platform of the Beijing railway station, countless people are densely packed on it, and a large number of police officers have formed a human wall at the edge of the platform to ensure that there will be no chaos on the platform.

"With so many people huddled together, there won't be any problems, right?" Looking at the crowd outside who were blocked by the human wall, Li Liang said with a slight worry.

After all, this is the time of the spread of the flu, which can be said to be an extraordinary time, and it is too dangerous to gather a large number of people together at such a time. In fact, as early as the beginning of this year, when the flu epidemic was spreading again, the national government had closed almost all public facilities and entertainment venues as it had done in 18 years, leaving only schools and hospitals, in order to reduce the number of flu patients...

However, now the train station is crowded with so many people, in case something happens......... The consequences are unimaginable.

Seeing that Li Liang was so worried, Duan Qirui on the side laughed softly. "Don't worry, there won't be anything, after all, there are usually not a few people here..." Besides, don't you smell how heavy it smells? Even if there is a real problem, the smell alone is enough to choke those viruses to death..."

Speaking of which, even though he had already put on a mask on his face, Duan Qirui's expression was still a little distorted.

I can't help it, the smell is so heavy, so heavy that even the special mask can't reduce it much.

But even though it smells bad and pungent, it's a lot more reassuring.

In the course of the spread of the Spanish flu around the world, China has had the fewest deaths. However, considering the huge population and poor medical resources and sanitary conditions, this can already be called a miracle.

And in the process. A large number of strictly enforced medical rules have become the main reason, such as the problem of masks. The government strictly stipulates that everyone must wear a mask when going out, and violators will be fined. Especially in 1919, after the resurgence of the flu, the punishment was increased, and some laws were even reintroduced, giving the police department the ability to repeatedly teach people if they found it. You don't have the right to arrest directly...

As for the other, the use of large quantities of disinfectant water, has become an equally important reason.

There is no special medicine in this. At the same time, in the era when there were no good disinfection measures, disinfectant water became the only way. Despite the high cost of using such means and the great pollution to the environment, there is no other way. Do so. It's better than doing nothing...

And it turns out that this approach does have a certain effect.

Now, in the context of the resurgence of the Spanish flu, many countries have even taken the initiative to learn from China. In some cities and towns in the United States, there are even many residents who simply buy disinfectant water at their own expense...

Although the government has closed most public places and entertainment venues, leaving only a few places such as schools and hospitals, facilities such as train stations and ports will never be closed. After all, whether it is commercial trade or the daily travel of Chinese people, they all rely on these facilities. As a result, a lot of measures are usually taken in such places. One of the most important is the use of disinfectant water.

After all, disinfectant water has been proven to play a role, so in order to avoid the presence of a large number of patients. It is inevitable to use it.

In the past, train stations were used more than ten times as many as other regions every day, but today, with the return of Yan Shao, that number has risen to twenty times.

Coupled with Duan Qirui, they were not timid people in the first place, so naturally there was nothing to be afraid of―――――― in fact, even if they were scared, others couldn't see it, after all, their faces were covered with a thick layer of masks.

――――――――――――――――――――

"Speaking of which, the president, they should be almost there..."

Looking at the watch on his wrist, Duan Qirui said to Xu Shichang, who was standing aside.

"It should be almost there..."Looking at the watch on his wrist, Xu Shichang nodded.

By the way, all the products worn by the two people on their wrists are products of Yushi Group. From a certain point of view, it is absolutely not wrong to say that it is a deformed monster, because although Yushi Group is still only a business group today, in fact, it has touched many industries in China, especially in some of the more important industries...

After waiting for some time, although there was a lot of noise on the platform, Xu Shichang and the others still clearly heard the sound of a train moving. About a minute later, people on the platform saw a long train slowly moving in the direction of the platform.

Seeing this train, the crowd, which was already a little chaotic, suddenly boiled, and there were cheers everywhere, and even the sound of the specially prepared military band on the platform was muffled by these cheers...

At the same time, just as the train entered the platform, the door of one of the carriages was also opened, and then people saw Yan Shao standing sideways from the door and waving to the crowd on the platform.

Seeing Yan Shao's figure, the already sensational crowd boiled again.

I don't know who started it, but after hearing someone shouting 'Long live the president', the entire platform suddenly had such a voice, and the sound was so loud that even Duan Qirui and Xu Shichang couldn't help but want to cover their ears.

"It seems that our worries are indeed too much..."

Looking at the crowd that was becoming crazy under the obstruction of the police, Xu Shichang said to Duan Qirui.

"Yes..."Duan Qirui nodded, he had to agree with Xu Shichang's words...

Originally, before Yan Shao's train entered the station, the order on the platform was still under control, and the crowd that came to welcome them was relatively honest under the watchful eyes of the police who surrounded the city wall.

But as Yan Shao's train entered, those crowds suddenly boiled. Many people even tried to rush over the wall of police to the train, and they didn't even bother to stop them―――――― of course, the police would not let them rush through. What's more, there was a group of soldiers from the Guards Regiment who were in charge of helping, and the result was chaos.

If it weren't for the strict order beforehand, I'm afraid those soldiers would have been on the butts of their guns.

However, it can also be seen from this that these people worship Yan Shao, and how much influence Yan Shao has on these people.

After all, Li Liang is only in his 30s, and he has not even reached the point where he can't even hear clearly. Although Xu Shichang and Duan Qirui spoke in a very small voice, and the surroundings were also noisy, they were vague. He still heard it more clearly.

As for the recent domestic affairs, Li Liang, the prime minister of the cabinet, naturally knows very clearly. Similarly, he also knew what Xu Shichang and the others were worried about. In fact, that's what he, the prime minister, is worried about.

The responsible person said that Li Liang is indeed a capable person, but compared with those cunning guys around him, I am afraid that this ability will be a little different. He is now able to sit firmly in the position of Prime Minister. is the same as Fu Xiuming, the Minister of Defense. It's all because they have followed Yan Shao for many years and have deep qualifications. In addition, Yan Shao misses the old love again, so he will let them sit down in this position.

But if one day, Yan Shao is no longer the president...

I'm afraid that the first to step down are the two of them, which is also the reason why they have no ambitions, and at the same time those people have not contacted them.

However, unlike Xu Shichang, Li Liangzhi is full of confidence in Yan Shao. So even if Yan Shao left for a long time, he wasn't particularly worried. At least not as worried as Xu Shichang and them...

――――――――――――――――――――――

Look at the cheering crowd on the platform. Although Yan Shao had encountered such a scene countless times on the way back, Yan Shao's heart was still a little excited, and even the arm that was waving a little bit of strength.

It's just that because of the mask on his face, no one can see his expression at the moment.

Standing behind Yan Shao, the two bodyguards were looking outside with vigilant eyes.

Although the people who can run to the platform must have been subject to multiple inspections by the Public Security Bureau, the Special Affairs Bureau, and even the Guards Corps, no one dares to guarantee that there are really no assassins mixed in, after all, the Japanese and Russians now hate Yan Shao, and Yan Shao was assassinated when he was in Paris alone.

And their duty is to let Yan Shao avoid encountering this situation, and even use their bodies to block the bullet that may kill Yan Shao when necessary.

So just when Yan Shao was a little excited, behind him, the two bodyguards on the left and right were slowly distinguishing the possible threats with calm eyes.

This situation was maintained until the train stopped and Yan Shao jumped out of the car...

"Welcome President, return from this trip to France, with honors..."

Seeing that Yan Shao had come down, Li Liang and the others hurriedly greeted him and held Yan Shao's hand.

"Where..."Shaking it back, Yan Shao's face also showed a smile―――――― although there is a mask in the way, no one can see it at all." I would also like to thank you for taking care of everything during my absence..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Shao also waved his hand towards the surrounding crowd, which suddenly attracted a bigger noise.

Seeing that Yan Shao was so good at showing, Li Liang and the others couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Although it seems that they are completely prepared, there are too many people at the train station, and no one can guarantee that there will be any accidents. What's more, in the pungent smell of disinfectant water in this place, I'm afraid that no one is in the mood to stay here and have a pleasant conversation.

So after greeting each other for a while, Yan Shao and the others left the train station, leaving only the welcoming crowd still talking to each other.

The convoy returned directly to the presidential palace, looking at the majestic building from afar, Yan Shao's heart was full of emotion. "I'm finally home..."

"Yes..."Eleno, who was sitting next to Yan Shao and was holding Yan Xiaoyu, nodded slightly. Finally came back, for more than half a year, I don't know if our room has been cleaned up properly..."

"Don't worry..."Yan Shao stretched out his hand and gently scraped Elanon's nose, and then said with a smile. They will definitely take care of it..."

Yan Shao is also the president of this country. If there was no one to clean up the house during his absence, it would be outrageous...

When the convoy stopped in front of the presidential palace. Standing in front of the steps, looking at this building that he hadn't seen for a long time, Yan Shao's heart was full of emotion. But soon he left this little thought behind him, and turned his head to Li Liang and the others behind him.

"Let's go, although it seems like a good idea to take a rest when you come back, there are some things that it is better to solve it early." After speaking, Yan Shao looked at Elano and the others again. "Let's take the kids back to the room first, Carter and I and the others are going to the conference room to talk about something..."

"Hmm..."

About what happened recently. Elaline was also a little clearer, and knew very well that Yan Shao did need to deal with some things now, so after nodding slightly. took the child and Lu Ying and they turned around and left.

For them, these things don't have much to do with them after all, and it seems that only Katerina can get involved.

On the other hand, wait until everyone is gone. Yan Shao glanced at Carter and Li Liang. "Let's go. Let's go in and talk..."

"Yes!"

Hearing Yan Shao's words, Li Liang and the others nodded.

Although Yan Shao has been away for more than half a year, Yan Shao has a little strangeness to this building, but after all, it has not reached the point where he can't even recognize his own home. Just as Yan Shao took Caterina and them towards the conference room, standing on the stairs leading upstairs, Elanon, who was wearing a long skirt, turned to Lu Ying and the others who were looking at Yan Shao's back. "Alright, let's go too, it's been a long time since I've been back. I don't know how our room is now..."

Lu Ying and Otsuki Kaoru were also not interested in Yan Shao's business, so after hearing Elanon's words. Soon turned their attention to the problem of the room―――――― and left for most of the year, to be honest, they were really curious about what their room was like now.

――――――――――――――――――――

After coming to the conference room, Yan Shao quickly sat down in his place, and then looked at Li Liang, Fu Xiuming, Duan Qirui, Xu Shichang and others. With the addition of Katarina, the head of the Special Affairs Bureau, it can be said that all the ministers of the entire cabinet have arrived, and it can be called a cabinet meeting...

"Okay, I've already learned a little bit about the actual situation on the way back, now let's talk about the specifics..."Speaking of this, Yan Shao turned his head sideways to look at Caterina on the side, as the director of the Special Affairs Bureau, it was obvious that he was the one who had the most secrets.

Seeing Yan Shao looking at herself, Caterina nodded, and then stood up from her seat.

"According to the information we have obtained, the main ones who took the lead this time are the deputy ministers of the Ministry of Water Resources and the Ministry of Agriculture, and then there are several members of the National Assembly, including the deputy speaker of the National Assembly..." Basically, they're some deputies, and they happen to be the ones who most want the current situation to change..."

"How much do you already know about them?"

"Don't worry..."Glancing at Yan Shao, Caterina said. According to you, it is impossible for people to live in this world without making mistakes, and these people are quite innocent in their backgrounds, but they are afraid to be serious about everything, and it is enough to arrest them for some small mistakes they made in their early years..."

After speaking, Caterina looked at the information in her hand again, and then said to Yan Shao.

"Speaking of which, we also made some small discoveries in this investigation." With that, Caterina glanced at the crowd. "I believe his family knows very well that during the battle in Shandong, there were some people in our government who betrayed our intelligence to the Japanese, and most of these people have been arrested afterwards, but there are also some fish that have slipped through the net, and this time we found such a one..."

After saying that, Caterina picked out a photo from a pile of materials, which was a middle-aged man who looked good. "That's it, an official from the Ministry of Communications, now in Beijing, is one of the initiators of this time, but in a more secondary position. During the Shandong Campaign, he served in Shandong, and once betrayed some information about the Wehrmacht to the Japanese, because his official position was not very high at that time, and it was not very conspicuous, so we omitted him. When the Shandong campaign gradually became more eyebrow-raising, he decisively broke off contact with the Japanese and obediently shrank up..."

"But maybe it's because no one has been coming to the door for so long. This man is also emboldened, and it is difficult for others to say, but the crime of betraying information to the Japanese alone is enough for us to shoot him..."

"Hmm..."Yan Shao nodded. I didn't expect that there would be fish that slipped through the net, and I thought that the original group of people had already been caught..."During the Shandong Campaign, many people thought that it would be the Kuomintang government that would eventually fail, so they took refuge in the Japanese. And betrayed the information to the Japanese, and these people were naturally liquidated afterwards.

There are special affairs bureaus, and there are not many people who can run away.

Just like Yan Shao said. I thought I had caught it, but I didn't expect a fish to slip through the net...

"I'm sorry, but this is a remiss on our part..."

Hearing Yan Shao say this, Caterina hurriedly stood up from her position and apologized.

"Nope. It's nothing. After all, no one is perfect, not to mention that there are so many people, it is normal to miss one or two..."Seeing Caterina apologizing over there, Yan Shao hurriedly waved his hand.

Not to mention anything else, just because of the relationship between the two, Yan Shao will not be able to embarrass Katarina.

Yan Shao is like this, and so are others. After all, Caterina is not only the director of the Special Affairs Bureau and Yan Shao's subordinate. At the same time his wife. At this time, stand up and have to bite other people's responsibilities―――――― what do you think Yan Shao will think?

Are you just targeting other people's mistakes? Come on. That's what Yan Shao thinks.

If you really don't get it right, I'm afraid Caterina won't have anything yet, and they themselves will be unlucky, so it's better to shut up at this time.

Of course, this doesn't mean that they are really cowardly, not to mention anything else, Duan Qirui is still very upright, even to the point where people can't stand it. It's just like Yan Shao said, the so-called 100 secrets are sparse, and no one dares to guarantee that one thing can really be done perfectly.

What's more, this person was just an inconspicuous little miscellaneous fish at the beginning, and if he missed, he leaked, so there was no need to entangle.

――――――――――――――――――――

"So, what do we do now?" A little surprised by the efficiency of the Special Affairs Bureau, who actually got the list done so quickly, Duan Qirui looked at Yan Shao and asked. "Do you want to make an arrest?"

Just now Caterina said that she had caught a lot of handles, although there were not many, but it was enough to arrest them, Duan Qirui didn't doubt this at all, so he looked at Yan Shao very directly.

"Not for the time being..."Yan Shao shook his head. At the moment, the most important thing is the war on the banks of the Yalu River, as well as the affairs of Eastern Europe, if you are in the country, it is better to be more stable or more stable, and it is nothing to put this matter aside for the time being..."Speaking of this, Yan Shao glanced at Katarina. "I'm back anyway, and I'm sure those guys are busy dying..."

"Indeed..."Noticing Yan Shao's gaze, Caterina hurriedly said. According to the information we have received, those people have planned to wait and see what happens for the time being, and even if we don't do anything at this time, I believe they will be honest for a while..."

"That's right." Yan Shao said with a smile. "Let them get away for a while, and then when things are almost busy, I'm dealing with them..."

The atmosphere of the meeting was very relaxed, after all, Yan Shao had returned, and the others would not worry about anything, but there were some things that they obviously couldn't predict, even others couldn't predict...

Although Yan Shao has returned, and those people have indeed died down, what they are annoyed about is that the wave of discussions about the relationship tenure has not stopped, but has become bigger and bigger because of Yan Shao's return...

This point obviously surprised everyone, not only Yan Shao, but also others, even those 'culprits'...

However, this also brought them a glimmer of hope, so the people who had planned to die down suddenly re-clamoured and increased their offensive in public opinion. (To be continued......)
