Chapter 44 Shengmei Commerce
Ruan Jingtian knew that these newspapers distributed to the public were not secret, but the graffiti on the newspapers contained a wealth of information.
There are many meetings in Zheguo, and most of them have nothing to do with the majority, but in order to demonstrate the importance of the meeting, all the staff must be present to listen to the instructions of the leaders. Most of the people sitting in the front row are the second and third leaders, etc., and the content of the meeting may have some relationship with these leaders, while the people sitting in the back row are basically playing soy sauce, and the content of the meeting is dispensable with these people. In order to pass the boring time, these people may read the newspaper or practice calligraphy in the newspaper, but the content of the calligraphy is mostly the subconscious thoughts of the writer, or some words of the meeting are unconsciously transferred to the calligraphy, and are also stored in the old newspaper that is about to be thrown away.
"Shengmei Business" appeared in three different newspapers, and the writing style was different, which means that at least three people in the water agency were thinking about this "Shengmei Business".
Ruan Jingtian has heard of "Shengmei Business", which is a place for leisure and entertainment for the magnates of Dongshan City, and ordinary people are not qualified to enter.
He thought to himself: Since it is the powerful people who are qualified to spend here, then Hu Qiuyuan is the leader of the water agency, and he is a veritable magnate, so he should also come here.
Nguyen Ching Tien believes that it is necessary to have an in-depth understanding of the situation of Sheng Mei Commerce. He took the transcript, left Baoshunfang, returned to the gendarmerie, and immediately called Yang Taipu, the original secretary of Zuo Tengxiong, to the office.
Yang Taipu's current situation is very bad, when Zuo Tengxiong was in the gendarmerie, he was like the second leader, even the deputy captain greeted him with a smile. But since Zuo Tengxiong was fingered three times, Yang Taipu's life has taken a sharp turn for the worse, not only moved out of a separate office, but also did not arrange his own desk in the secretarial class. Everyone in the gendarmerie saw themselves and walked around like a plague. What's worse is that Zuo Tengxiong died violently, and Yang Taipu was completely hopeless, and he thought that his best ending was to sweep the toilet and brush the toilet.
Yang Taipu received a call from Gong Xiaomu, and his face turned pale with fright, if you want to say who is the most unprovoked person in the gendarmerie, it is 100% the deputy captain of Gong Xiaomu.
The deputy captain of the palace was fingered three times by the water organ, and both times he came out unharmed, not only that, but each time he also harmed a related person, the first time was to put the arrogant Mao Shilang of the water organ in prison, and the second time was the left captain who was involved was three fingers, and the three fingers were just that, and the left captain was still gone. What kind of person is Zuo Tengxiong, that is the successor that the Zuo family has tried to cultivate, so if you say no, it will be gone. Also, Gong Xiaomu yesterday sent the gendarmes who did not obey the order directly to correct the law on the spot, Gong Xiaomu is a bad star!
Yang Taipu trembled and came to Gong Xiaomu's office, he didn't dare to look directly at Gong Xiaomu, and said tremblingly: "Hello, Deputy Captain Gong!"
Gong Xiaomu saw that Yang Taipu was extremely nervous, and he was amused in his heart, he patted Yang Taipu on the shoulder and said, "Taipu-kun, don't be nervous, you sit down first, and I'll pour you a cup of tea." ”
Yang Taipu jumped up and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Deputy Captain of the Palace, I'm not thirsty, you don't have to be busy." ”
Gong Xiaomu pressed him on the sofa and said with a smile: "Taipu-kun, you're welcome, come, taste my tea." Ruan Jingtian made a cup of tea and handed it to Yang Taipu.
Yang Taipu came to his senses, feeling that Gong Xiaomu had no malicious intentions, he was also an elf person, and understood that Gong Xiaomu had something to do with him, so he immediately stood up and said, "Deputy Captain Gong, if there is something that needs my service, you can just give orders." ”
Ruan Jingtian was somewhat satisfied with Yang Taipu's attitude, and he slowly spoke out his problem. Sure enough, Yang Taipu knows Shengmei business very well.
Shengmei Commerce implements a membership system, which is only open to the dignitaries, foreign envoys, and wealthy businessmen of Dongshan City, and the review of new members is stricter, and Zuo Tengxiong, Zheng Kaidi and He Shanxia are all members of the club. Finally, Yang Taipu said vaguely that its main function is to provide members with a platform for various transactions, which are varied, and even the buying and selling of intelligence and the sale of official beards.
After hearing this, Ruan Jingtian was a little surprised in his heart, but his face remained the same, and finally asked lightly: "I wonder if I am qualified to become a member?"
Yang Taipu immediately said: "Vice Captain Gong, I used to be familiar with the person in charge of reviewing the membership of Shengmei, I think you should be fine if you apply for membership." Vice Captain Gong, if you can trust me, I will do my best to handle this matter for you. ”
"Okay, then please Temp-kun. Ruan Jingtian patted him on the shoulder.
Yang Taipu left Ruan Jingtian's office in good spirits, he felt that he had found the main weaver again, as long as he followed the pace of the palace deputy captain, he would not be abandoned.
In the afternoon, Yang Taipu handed over the membership card to Ruan Jingtian, and by the way: If you go to Shengmei for business, it is best to bring a female companion. Ruan Jingtian was thoughtful after hearing this.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Ruan Jingtian came to the school to see Li Butterfly in his true face, and asked if he could go to Shengmei Business together in the evening to learn some information. Li Butterfly happily agreed, she asked for leave to leave class early, and went to the clothing store with Ruan Jingtian to buy two sets of evening dresses.
In the evening, Ruan Jingtian made Li Butterfly into a cold and beautiful woman, made herself into the appearance of Gong Xiaomu, and told Li Butterfly to speak Chinese and the etiquette that should be paid attention to when participating in such occasions, and then the two came to the banquet hall of Shengmei Business together.
Sheng Mei Business is indeed extravagant, and every guest is dressed in gorgeous clothes and full of spring breeze.
Ruan Jingtian held Li Butterfly in his left hand and a glass of red wine in his right hand, looking around. A charming young woman walked over and shouted sweetly to a dignified middle-aged man behind Ruan Jingtian:
"Father, you're here early. ”
Ruan Jingtian turned his head and looked at the person behind him who was called "Ya Father". He suddenly felt something familiar with this person, as if he had seen this person in the newspaper. When he thought of the newspaper, he immediately understood that this person was Xiao Junyan, the head of the War Department of Dongshan City. The War Department is in charge of the police station, the gendarmerie, the court, the quartermaster and other violent armed departments, and it is the person in power in Dongshan City, and it can be said that it is a high power, half a level higher than the level of Hu Qiuyuan of the water agency.
Xiao Junyan looked at the young woman with fatherly eyes and said, "Xuezi, come here." ”
Xuezi walked towards Xiao Junyan lightly and quickly, but accidentally stepped on Ruan Jingtian's feet and almost tripped over. Ruan Jingtian stretched out his hand to support her and said softly, "Be careful of your step." ”
At this time, he smelled a strange fragrance in his nose, this fragrance faintly made Ruan Jingtian's blood spurt, as if there was a primitive impulse, Ruan Jingtian immediately ran the Xuangang Recipe to drive out the strange fragrance in the blood. His spirit was immediately refreshed, but his heart was wary of the woman.
Seeing that she was out of shape, Xuezi was a little annoyed, and was about to have a seizure, Xiao Junyan strode over, pulled Xuezi up, and said in a low voice: "You are always so impatient, be careful in the future." ”
He turned to Ruan Jingtian and said, "Thank you, gentleman, for your trouble." ”
Suddenly, Xiao Junyan looked Ruan Jingtian up and down, and finally said, "You are Xiao Mujun of the gendarmerie?"
Ruan Jingtian was embarrassed to continue to pretend to be dumb, so he had to bow down and say, "Hello, Minister Xiao, I'm Gong Xiaomu." I didn't recognize the chief just now, please forgive me!"
"It doesn't matter. Xiaomu-kun, you are good, I was about to give you a commendation order. ”
"Minister Xiao, my subordinates are a little stupid, I don't understand what you mean?" Ruan Jingtian was a little confused.
"Today, the 796th Division sent us a letter of commendation to you, in the battle of encircling and suppressing the 19th Army the day before yesterday, you showed your bravery, personally led the assault team to rush to the position, and you were braver than the 796th Division. Isn't this worth a commendation for you?"
Ruan Jingtian hurriedly excused himself, praised Xiao Junyan, and then introduced Li Butterfly beside him, but changed Li Butterfly's name to Mu Qingzi. Xiao Junyan also introduced Xuezi to Ruan Jingtian and the others, and her full name is Jiang Xuezi.
After Jiang Xuezi heard about Ruan Jingtian's heroic deeds, her eyes glowed strangely, and she chatted with Ruan Jingtian and Li Butterfly sweetly.
At this time, the people around saw Xiao Junyan, Ruan Jingtian and the others drank and talked happily, Qi Qi looked at this side, and after a closer look, it was actually Minister Xiao, the first brother of the violence department, who was here, they immediately surrounded with a smile on their faces, and saluted Xiao Junyan, and then flattered Jiang Xuezi in every way, and more and more people came behind, Ruan Jingtian actually saw Zheng Kaidi and He Shanxia were also in these crowds, Zheng Kaidi and He Shanxia saw that Ruan Jingtian was also here, they were slightly taken aback, nodded to Ruan Jingtian, and squeezed into the crowd to meet Xiao Junyan.
Xiao Junyan saw that Ruan Jingtian was being squeezed farther and farther away, picked up his wine glass, pointed at Ruan Jingtian from afar, and said, "Xiaomujun, you have time to sit in my office." Ruan Jingtian said respectfully.
Jiang Xuezi also said sweetly: "Xiaomu-kun, can I play with you?"
Ruan Jingtian couldn't stand this crookedness, so he had to say: "Okay, you are welcome to the gendarmerie at any time." ”
The people around were a little surprised to see Xiao Junyan and Jiang Xuezi treating Ruan Jingtian so politely.
Ruan Jingtian pulled Li Butterfly, squeezed out of the crowd, and walked outside the hall. A tall man of the southern continent race and a curvaceous woman politely stopped them.
"Hello two, excuse me, can you take a step to speak?" the tall man said in standard Chinese.
Ruan Jingtian glanced at them and didn't feel malice, so he said, "Okay, let's go to the café and talk." ”
A group of four people came to the café of Shengmei Business and found a remote place to sit opposite each other.
"I know you, you are Xiaomu-kun, hello! I'm Simmons from Wheat Country, this is Miss Jenny, and we are the representatives of Wheat Country Adi Steel Company in Dongshan City. ”
Ruan Jingtian introduced Li Butterfly beside him to the two opposite, and then asked, "Mr. Simmons, I don't know what you are looking for me?"
