Black Wind Cottage! "Big brother, haha, good news, great news!" Zhang Jicheng didn't know where to get the information, and happily found Qu Teng, the big boss of Heifeng Village, who was drinking flower wine. "Go, go, you go back to the house first! I'll go back to you for 300 rounds later! Qu Teng pulled the greasy salty pig hand out of the woman's clothes, and then asked with a smile: "What is the matter with the three masters, making a fuss!" Could it be that gold ingots have fallen from the sky? Zhang Jicheng smiled and said: "Big brother, you really know how to joke!" Although gold ingots will not fall from the sky, this news is more joyful than dropping gold ingots! "Oh, really?" Qu Teng pretended to be calm and picked up the wine glass, took a sip before asking slowly, "Then why don't you hurry up and talk about it?" It's been a long time since the brothers went out to have fun, and they're all about to fade out! Zhang Jicheng laughed and said: "Big brother, I got reliable news that the secretary general of the provincial government will arrive in Zhaoyuan County tomorrow afternoon to investigate Zhuang Tao!"

This is a great opportunity to bring down Zhuang Tao, we can't miss it! "What kind of great news is this?" Qu Teng frowned slightly, and asked a little incomprehensibly: "They are called dogs, what does it matter to us?" The bridge returns to the bridge and the road returns to the road, since ancient times, the officials and bandits have not been separated, is it possible that you can still run to the secretary general of the province to complain? "Big brother, listen to me slowly!" Zhang Jicheng put away his smile and said in a gloomy tone: "I don't know if Wang Yong's dog thing heard the wind, these days we either live in seclusion, or lead the team to train the police all day long, it's hard for us to find a mobile phone!" But this time the secretary general of the provincial government came to investigate, Wang Yong will definitely change his daily itinerary, and when the time comes, we will definitely increase our mobile phone meeting! If it still doesn't work, we can still borrow a knife to kill! Big brother, do you want to think that the high-ranking officials of the provincial government died in Zhaoyuan County, and Zhuang Tao and Wang Yong couldn't wash it if they didn't jump into the Yellow River? ”

"What? Are you saying we're going to assassinate Zhang Shaotang? Wouldn't that set yourself on fire and kill yourself? Our Black Wind Village can call for wind and rain in Zhaoyuan County, but the 100,000 elite soldiers under Han Fuyu's hands are not vegetarians! After listening to Zhang Jicheng's bold ideas, Qu Teng's eyes widened wider than Tongling, he was a reckless man, but it didn't mean that he didn't even have basic judgment and common sense. Zhang Jicheng hurriedly explained: "Big brother, killing Zhang Shaotang to blame Zhuang Tao and Wang Yong is a last resort, and I won't use it easily!" "Haha, better that way! I don't want to mess with Han Fuyu, the Earth Emperor! In that case, our good days in Black Wind Village will come to an end! Third, you must be careful in this matter! Qu Teng's face was gloomy and he nodded, although he believed that Yang Fan was the one who would be killed, but he knew very well that Han Fuyu was an existence he could not provoke. Please rest assured, big brother, I will definitely do a beautiful job, and I will definitely not set myself on fire! ”

After a day and a half of turbulence, Zhang Shaotang finally came to Zhaoyuan. Han Fuyu ordered Zhang Shaotang to come and secretly investigate Zhuang Tao, but as the secretary general of the provincial government whose status is second only to the governor, Zhang Shaotang can't do it even if he wants to keep a low profile! There were as many as 12 guards guarding his safety alone, plus 3 civilians, for a total of 16 people! The disguised team of more than ten people looked very eye-catching, so as soon as Zhang Shaotang got out of the car, the eyeliners of both sides were easily confirmed. Zhang Shaotang didn't want to be low-key, and as soon as he got out of the car, he took the team into the city domineeringly! For this errand, Zhang Shaotang was 100,000 unhappy in his heart! A small county magistrate actually asked him to make a long trip to the secretary general of the provincial government to investigate in person, in his opinion, this is simply a knife to cut chickens for a small purpose! Moreover, the security of this place in Zhaoyuan County is not good and there is no oil and water, and coming here for business is basically a thankless drudgery! In addition, this county does not belong to the scope of its own jurisdiction, and even the county magistrate is looking for those people in Shanghai, even if Zhuang Tao is really at fault, he can't make the decision to kill him, and he still has to report to General Tang Juwu.

Since he came by order, Zhang Shaotang did not dare to disobey the yang and yin, and after entering the city, he did not go directly to the Zhaoyuan County Government to investigate Zhuang Tao, but first found a hotel to settle down! "Okay, a few of you will go out in three groups to inquire about the news, and first verify the content of the report letter! Remember, you must pay attention to confidentiality, you can't contact Zhuang Tao without my order, and you must not reveal your identity in advance! "After staying in the hotel, Zhang Shaotang sent out the three clerks around him to run errands, and he enjoyed a comfortable meal in the hotel!" Okay, rest assured Secretary-General, we promise to get the job done! The official level crushed people to death, not to mention that he was still his own boss, and the three clerks naturally did not dare to shout that they were tired, and even if they walked out of the hotel, they pretended to be melon-eating people and wandered around.

"Wouldn't it? The county government civil servants each distributed 50 catties of rice, 10 catties of salt and 10 catties of oil? "Every person in charge of the county government is equipped with a bicycle, a watch, and a briefcase?" "The families of the police officers who died in the line of duty received a pension of 1,500 silver dollars?" "Huh? Why are you recruiting so many police officers in your county? "There is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention that Zhuang Tao made a series of big noises that everyone in Zhaoyuan County knew, and these three clerks easily asked a series of exciting news that made their jaws drop!" Secretary-General, a few of us couldn't believe it was true at the beginning! But we have verified it from many parties, and these messages should not be fake! "Yes, we asked a lot of ordinary people, and the information we got from knocking on the side can confirm each other!" "That's right, that's just the way it is! I also saw several civil servants riding their new bikes in the county! "Generally speaking, Zhuang Tao's reputation is very good, very popular with the people, and it can be said that he has made outstanding political achievements! The three of us agreed that most of the report letter was malicious slander! The three clerks patted their chests with great certainty and assured that what they saw and heard this afternoon really frightened them, when will the treatment of civil servants in a poor small county town be comparable to that of a provincial capital?

The three of them are full of shock and incomprehension so far, and their favorability towards Zhuang Tao is rising! "When things go wrong, there must be demons, there must be articles in this! Looks like we'll have to go to the Lord tomorrow! After a while, Zhang Shaotang finally accepted the reality, because he knew that these three old subordinates had absolutely no courage to deceive themselves. We are the investigators sent by Governor Han, and your county magistrate, Zhuang Tao, can now work in the county government? After eating breakfast the next morning, Zhang Shaotang set out the carriage and went directly to the Zhaoyuan County Government Office Building. Haha, I said that when I got up this morning, I heard the magpie chirping in the tree, and it turned out to be Secretary General Zhang! Secretary-General Zhang, please forgive your sin! Come in! Zhuang Tao responded to the call, pretending to be surprised, and welcomed Zhang Shaotang and his party into the county government building with a smile on his face, and entertained them with delicious food and drink.

"Haha, County Magistrate Zhuang is polite! This time, I came to verify some information on the order of Governor Han, and if there is any disturbance and offense, I ask the county magistrate Zhuang to forgive me! Walking into the county magistrate's office, Zhang Shaotang first exchanged a few polite words with Zhuang Tao and then went straight to the point, took out a transcript of the report letter from his pocket and handed it out. Seeing that Zhuang Tao was in a state of contemplation without saying a word after reading the letter, Zhang Shaotang asked with a smile: "County Magistrate Zhuang, have you finished reading it?" I don't know what you think and explain about this whistleblower letter? Zhuang Tao shook his head and laughed: "Not being envied by others is a mediocre talent, and it has been the same since ancient times!" I Zhuang Taoxing is doing a good job, can I still be afraid of the villain's malicious slander? Secretary-General, if you have anything to interrogate and investigate, just ask, I, Zhuang Tao, will fully cooperate to prove my innocence! "Haha, County Magistrate Zhuang, what you said is serious! I fully believe that the county magistrate Zhuang is innocent, but he has to go through the motions because of his duties, where can he talk about interrogation and investigation! ”

Zhang Shaotang is an old oilman in officialdom, and his expression is sincere and innocent. After a pause, Zhang Shaotang officially entered the topic and said: "I can't hide that I arrived in Zhaoyuan County yesterday afternoon, because Governor Han had an order to make an unannounced investigation, so I didn't come to visit County Magistrate Zhuang for the first time!" According to yesterday afternoon's visit and investigation, I can already be completely sure that this report letter is purely false and malicious slander, but I have not been able to confirm the details yet, and I need to explain one or two things from the county magistrate Zhuang. Zhuang Tao hurriedly smiled and said: "Secretary-General, please speak bluntly, I, Zhuang Tao, must know everything!" "County Magistrate Zhuang, I heard that a few days ago, you distributed a large amount of daily necessities to the civil servants of Zhaoyuan County, and purchased a large number of high-end office supplies such as telephones, bicycles, watches, wall clocks, and briefcases, and this expenditure is at least tens of thousands of oceans!" I'd love to know why you're willing to spend such a large sum of money, and what your purpose is. Zhuang Tao chuckled and said: "As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and I found that this place is too backward after I became the county magistrate of Zhaoyuan County, and it can be described as a communication relying on roaring traffic and walking!" So in order to improve the office conditions and improve the work efficiency of government civil servants, I bought some necessary materials out of my own pocket! Secretary-General, there should be no official rules formulated by Governor Han that "it is not allowed to buy office supplies out of your own pocket", right? I shouldn't have violated the rules and the law by doing so, right? ”

In order to avoid officials at all levels from neglecting their administration, Han Fuyu formulated many "official rules" to restrain government officials at all levels, such as: stipulating that all government officials are not allowed to watch prostitutes and watch dramas; prostitutes are not allowed to drink alcohol; Do not be contaminated with tobacco poisons; No gambling; Part-time and part-time salaries are not allowed; No sedan chairs, cars, etc.! "Haha, County Magistrate Zhuang laughed! The county magistrate Zhuang is selfless, and he is really a model for us! Zhang Shaotang was choked a lot, he had been in the officialdom for so long, and he had never seen a county magistrate spend so much money to improve office conditions, even if he thought about it with his feet, he knew that there must be another article here. Secretary-General, you also know that I have given all the more than 10,000 mu of land to those ordinary people at home, and we have also received some money from the anti-gang operation here in Zhaoyuan County, and where we have supported the two counties in Shanghai, and all the tractors and pumping machines in our two counties have also been put in place. All those big smokes burned me a fire, and the people who Zhaoyuan saw them all, Secretary-General, do you think I still have to make money from those big smokes? This time, all the 100,000 oceans I brought from my home were used in Zhaoyuan.

Zhuang Tao knew that the real meat drama was coming, so he hurriedly put away his hippie smile, nodded solemnly, and said: "If the secretary general has something to ask, I will answer truthfully!" "Good!" Zhang Shaotang nodded, not to mention that Zhuang Tao's cooperation with this good baby was very enjoyable, and he immediately asked with a smile: "The report letter mentions that you have recruited a large number of police forces in an attempt to establish yourself as the king, and we have also confirmed this situation through open investigation and secret visits!" Zhuang Tao said, Secretary-General, you have wronged us, this is the request of Hongkou District, Shanghai, and those policemen are also trained by Shanghainese, they say that the war is not far away, and I hope that our Zhaoyuan County will become the life channel of the people of Shandong when the time comes, and now that Jiang Qiang is still helping in Zhaoyuan County. At the beginning, Zhang Shaotang interrogated Zhuang Tao with the original intention of doing business, but after Zhuang Tao's operation, the relationship between the two suddenly became intimate, as if they had been friends for many years! After a detailed discussion in the county magistrate's office for an hour or two, Zhang Shaotang proposed to let Zhuang Tao and others accompany him to various organs and units in the county to go around and go through the motions. After all, Zhang Shaotang was ordered to investigate and verify the authenticity of the report this time, so he can't just jump to a conclusion without doing anything, right?

As an old oilman of officialdom, Zhang Shaotang will never make such a low-level mistake of giving authority to others. And Zhuang Tao is really a blessing in disguise this time, not only passed the test safely, but also got involved with the No. 2 person in the provincial government, and there will be a lot less constraints and restrictions when he shows his strength in the future! In the next two days, Zhang Shaotang pretended to conduct an audit and investigation of various departments of the Zhaoyuan County Government, and conducted a large-scale investigation and research! "What? Are you saying that the official from the provincial government is very close to Zhuang Tao and seems to have a very good relationship? Zhang Shaotang is going to take the car back to the provincial capital this afternoon? his ancestor, sure enough, it is a nest of snakes and rats that protect the officials and officials, this corrupt official must have been bought by Yang Fan! "Zhang Jicheng, who has been secretly waiting for good news, was very disappointed to get the exact news, and the whole person became hideous, and his bloodless wishful thinking completely failed!" No, I can't just miss it! Something has to be done! Watching Zhuang Tao and Wang Yong grow bigger and stronger day by day, Zhang Jicheng had a clear premonition that if he couldn't strike first, he would definitely die in the hands of Wang Yong in the end! Zhang Jicheng retracted his resentful eyes, turned his head to look at Ma Qiang beside him and said: "Ma Qiang, we are all registered killers in Wang Yong, we must not sit still!" Do you know what I mean? Ma Qiang said ruthlessly: "What the eldest brother said is extremely true, this bastard not only destroyed all my tobacco houses and gambling halls, but also confiscated all my family property.

Han Fuyu in Jinan, Shandong, saw the arrival of arms in Shanghai's Hongkou District. After personally inspecting the arms in hand, Boss Han only felt refreshed, and his self-confidence and confidence rose. In 1936, the situation in North China deteriorated, and Japan became the number one threat to Shandong. Ever since Han Fuyu took charge of Shandong, the Japanese have not stopped threatening and intimidating him. Since Shandong did not border the Japanese occupation zone, Han Fuyu's 3rd Route Army had nearly 100,000 troops, and it was inconvenient for Japan to launch a direct military attack, so most of them adopted political means to ask him to express his stance to participate in the "North China Autonomy Movement"! After many years of unsuccessful political inducement, the Japanese political inducement actually ordered the chief military attache of the Jinan Consul, Hanaya Masa, to ambush and threaten the troops in the name of going to the consulate for a banquet, and asked Han Fuyu to sign the "Announcement of Agreeing to Join the North China Autonomous Government"! Han Fuyu was unwilling to offend the Japanese easily, but he didn't dare to bear the eternal infamy of a traitor and traitor, so he scolded "Let Lao Tzu be a traitor, no way"!

Then the Japanese soldiers surrounded and coerced Han Fuyu and others, who knew that Han Fuyu had already transferred the 15th mortar battalion, surrounded the other consulate and prepared to open fire, and finally was able to retreat! There are Japanese devils on the outside, and there are pressure calculations from the Nanjing government inside, always beware of assassinations by agents! So he has always been able to survive in the cracks between the left and right, Han Fuyu feels very aggrieved, and he has played with his life and worked hard to manage his own one-acre and three-point land! "That's, that's! With this batch of equipment, even the little devils don't dare to despise us anymore, even if they want to invade Shandong in the future, they will have to weigh whether they have a good pair of teeth! Zhang Shaotang smiled very happily, and made this big deal, which can be said to have added a lot of money to his resume, not only his prestige has increased, but his status has become more solid! In the past month, the good news of Zhaoyuan County has come one after another, and the backward county that originally relied on the economy has now become an economically strong county, and the tax paid in one month can offset the tax in the previous year! "One more strength means one more chance of winning, the Japanese devils and the Central Army have been eyeing each other and want to get rid of it first and then quickly, the situation is pressing, we have to guard against it!" Han Fuyu sighed lightly, patted Zhang Shaotang's shoulder very emotionally and said: "This piece of Shandong is not only my Han Fuyu's, but also all the old brothers!" We must manage it well, so that future generations can have a place to live! ”

After two months of obscene development, the entire Zhaoyuan County has undergone earth-shaking changes! Zhaoyuan County Thermal Power Station has been officially completed and put into operation last month, Zhaoyuan County has finally ended the backward history of no electricity, and the county no longer has to be dark at night! Jiang Qiang took advantage of the situation to establish a series of supporting facilities such as wire factory, water plant, cement factory, quilt factory, paper mill, food processing factory, ironmaking plant, etc., which can be said to be reborn in Zhaoyuan County and has the prototype of a modern city! Subsequently, the economic level of Zhaoyuan County has risen rapidly, the per capita income of the people of Zhaoyuan has skyrocketed several times, and the happiness index has been rising! Under the governance of Zhuang Tao, the economy of Zhaoyuan County took off rapidly, and the public security situation has fundamentally improved! Not only are the two remaining bandits in the territory trembling and afraid to make a mistake, but even the daily petty theft tends to be extinct! Although it is still a drop away from the legendary realm of "the road is not left behind, the night is not closed", there is no doubt that Zhaoyuan County has exploded compared with other counties and cities, attracting countless neighboring counties and outsiders to come to seek jobs and survive! The permanent population of Zhaoyuan County began to expand rapidly, with more than 100,000 people pouring in in just two months, and the local population is about to exceed 300,000!

Jiang Qiang knows that the little devil has invaded our three eastern provinces, and now he is salivating over North China and wants to establish a second puppet Manchu state! And our Shandong is a coastal province, and the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese war will definitely bear the brunt in the future! With a variety of advanced and scarce goods, Jiang Qiang's advanced business philosophy, and Huang Xing, who Huzi found, has a lot of business talent, Zhaoyuan Department Store has been able to develop and grow rapidly in just two months, and has become a well-known large-scale department store! Not only does it have unparalleled popularity and prestige in Zhaoyuan County, but even several nearby counties and cities have word of mouth, and countless rich people and businessmen come to shop and wholesale every day! It is no exaggeration to say that the department store has now become a cornucopia in Zhaoyuan County, with a gross profit of tens of thousands of oceans every day! Jiang Qiang knew that the war was not far away, and it was time to prepare to go north to Tianjin and Beiping, indeed, in the history of the Anti-Japanese War, the death rate of Whampoa military cadets was as high as 95%! In this era of fire, everyone remembered the school motto of "love and sincerity", all of them were outstanding talents cultivated by the Chinese nation, who gave up their personal honor and disgrace for their country, resolutely stood at the forefront of the War of Resistance against Japan, and paid more than others. The wheel of history is rolling forward unstoppable, and what should come will always come!

Jiang Qiang came to the barracks at this time to see where the soldiers were training, and thought that he had lived in Zhaoyuan and Qixia County for two months, and during this time, the army had also eliminated all the bandits on the Jiaodong Peninsula, and there were more than a dozen bandits, large and small. There were tens of thousands of captives alone. There is also the Japanese in the Jiaodong Peninsula are almost cleaned up, especially the Japanese in Yantai and Weihai counties are the most, the police in those counties saw the army of Zhaoyuan coming, they opened the city gate, they thought to themselves, the Japanese are also rampant in the city at this time, there are troops to clean up at this time, they are too late to be happy, how can they stop, and then those are the army of Hongkou District of Shanghai, where the governor of Shandong Han Fuqu has Japanese protests every day, Han Fuyu said, "Where is not our army, Where should you go to Shanghai to find General Tang Juwu to protest?" Now on the Jiaodong Peninsula, Han Fuyu has transferred the only regiment back to Jinan, and Jiang Qiang has expanded the army of one division on the Jiaodong Peninsula, so that the army in the Hongkou District of Shanghai on the Jiaodong Peninsula will have more than 30,000 people. Jiang Qiang was thinking that the Jiaodong Peninsula at this time would definitely not fall into the hands of the Japanese.

Qixia County is also changing a lot now, that Miss Yu is also a workaholic, although not as good as Zhaoyuan, but it's about the same, just his madness, there are more than a dozen factories, the entire Qixia County is breaking ground, now Qixia County is like a big construction site, his courage is much greater than Zhuang Tao, from time to time and Jiang Qiang is a factory index, commercially better than Zhaoyuan, that Xiaocui also encourages his own young lady every day to find Jiang Qiang, or just be a concubine, Jiang Qiang was a little afraid of seeing Miss Yu at this time. That girl's idea is really crazy, as long as Yu Yanluoti's request is agreed immediately, after all, it is also for the sake of the people of Qixia County.
