A Liang still didn't want to leave his elder brother and escape alone, and wanted to make one last fight.If you win, you will continue to be popular and drink hot food, but if you lose... Who hasn't lost yet? If it wasn't for the big brother who jumped off the platform to save him, he would have lost it long ago.
"Brother...it's all my fault for my brother, I was so motivated to accept this errand, I made a mistake!" A friend in adversity sees the truth, Jiang Menshen took off his glasses and wiped the corners of his eyes.
Originally thought that he would never shed tears for others in this life, but Ah Liang's words broke his guard.Forget it, if you can't escape, then don't escape. You have committed a lot of evil, this is God's punishment, retribution!
Chapter 697 Ultimatum
Nightlife, of course, starts from dark.Today is the weekend, the factories in the base are all on holiday, many people come out to relax, the business of the Three Rings Entertainment City is exceptionally good, the bathing center, restaurants, casinos, and movie theaters are all full.
Dozens of Union officers poured into even the tepid bar. They were disciplined not to engage in pornography and gambling, but drinking was allowed.Taking the family out to watch a movie, having a few drinks and chatting can be regarded as entertainment.
But Shen Nan's expression was very painful, sitting behind the desk with cold hands and feet and sweating on his forehead.A cigarette was taken out and then stuffed back in. After a while, it was taken out again, and then it was stuffed back in immediately. I did not know how many times I repeated it.
"Boss Shen, I heard that you have two croupiers with very sophisticated tactics. Whoever wants to win must win. There were several alliance officials and directors who got a lot of money last week, right?"
What made Shen Nan feel like he was sitting on pins and needles was not someone making trouble in the restaurant, nor was it the technician in the bath center accidentally offending the distinguished guests, nor was it the expert coming in the casino, but the mushroom-headed young woman sitting on the opposite sofa.
She has been here for more than ten minutes, without any notification before, she suddenly appeared at the door of the office.At first, I didn't know the origin of the other party, but after seeing the three red slashes on the sleeves of the light blue uniform, I trembled in my heart.
The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are not too scary. As the boss of the entertainment city, Shen Nan has not only met, but also cooperated with them a few times.Even if they really want to arrest people in the entertainment city, the other party will greet them in advance to avoid affecting the business as much as possible.
But the people who came this time were obviously unusual. The master stood up from the sofa immediately after seeing it, changed his usual calm and mysterious high-level style, and stood on the side with a low eyebrow and pleasing to the eye. Military posture.
He knew this young woman 100%, but he didn't dare to say a word, and only quietly signaled himself not to move with his eyes.But from his own point of view, the master's two legs were shaking slightly.
"Go to the door to meet Jiang Menshen, I'll ask him to come over and have a chat!"
"Boss Shen, please sit down!" After the young woman came in, she only said these two words, and then sat alone on the sofa and flipped through the documents she carried with her, without making a sound for a long time.
It was the master who reacted quickly. Before he could figure out why the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs wanted to meet Jiang Menshen here, the old man slipped out of the door like a gust of wind, and volunteered to stand at the door in the cold wind as a welcomer.
Then Shen Nan knew the necessity of what the master did. Although there was only a young woman sitting and a man standing with an expressionless face in the room, the atmosphere was too suffocating.If you can adjust the time forward by 15 minutes, then you must be faster than the master, and you would rather let the north wind blow.
Usually, I really don’t think the Ministry of Internal Affairs is so scary, it’s hard to get in touch, and if you listen to too many stories, you will get tired.But being famous is not as good as meeting each other. A simple question made Shen Nan's legs start to tremble.
How to answer?To be honest, the money was deliberately lost to the alliance officials, so it is equivalent to paying protection fees?Obviously not, bribing alliance officials, just for this reason can arrest him and throw him into the mine.
By chance?It doesn't seem to work, so that doesn't mean denying it face to face.People already know who is here and how much money they have won, and if they grit their teeth and refuse to admit it, it will be meaningless.
"Little tricks, little tricks..." Fortunately, the master taught me how to subdue in the face of irresistible forces. If I can't resist, I just kneel down and beg for mercy.You ask me what I say, change your attitude, maybe you can get a lighter sentence.
"...Secretary Lan, he's here!" At this moment, there were footsteps in the corridor, followed by a soft conversation, and finally a knock on the door.A young man in the uniform of the Ministry of Internal Affairs pushed open the door, followed by a man, Jiang Menshen.
"..." The young woman on the sofa put down the document, pinched the bridge of her nose with her fingers, and nodded slightly.
"..." The young man moved away to let Jiang Menshen enter the room, then turned around and went out, closing the door behind him.
"..." The mushroom-headed woman didn't say anything, and picked up the file again, as if she was looking for something.Jiang Menshen stood stunned at the position just a few steps into the door, glanced at Shen Nan who was sitting behind the desk, then looked at the woman on the sofa and the man by the wall, feeling at a loss.
Shen Nan didn't even lift his eyelids, just stared at the cigarettes in the cigarette case, as if he discovered a new world.I am not familiar with Jiang Menshen, and I don't know what the rules are today, so what can I communicate by making eye contact?
"Secretary Lan... Could it be her!" But his mind was not idle, the secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, surnamed Lan!The known conditions are sufficient and clear. If you still can't guess who the woman with the mushroom head on the sofa is, then all the entertainment city in the past few years will be for nothing.
"Master, why do you lose the chain at a critical moment? Even if you have no choice, at least come in with you to share the pressure."
But knowing is better than not knowing. At this time, Shen Nan was almost unable to think normally, and the only thing he could figure out was that the master was not mean enough to leave him alone to suffer.
There is one tiger and three wolves in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They are all vicious people with a reputation outside. Whoever is found by them is considered unlucky. There is no possibility of turning over.
But these are superficial phenomena or rumors in the market, not to say that they are inconsistent with the facts, but that most people will not fall into their hands.They all deal with major cases, who has the time to catch pornography, gambling and drugs.
From time to time, there will be league officials patronizing in the entertainment city. Of course, as long as there are no technician services and gambling plots, it is legal.But after a long time, more times, and better friendships, it is inevitable that you will hear some mantras after drinking.
There are also bits and pieces about the Ministry of Internal Affairs in these few words, such as this Secretary Lan.She and several people of similar age are very special existences in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and even in the entire league.
First of all, senior qualifications, almost all of them joined the rescue team.The second is that the background is hard, and anyone who can find a godfather, mother, aunt, and sister is all powerful figures in the alliance!
In the end, the future is bright. These young people have all grown up with the league since they were young. Regardless of their young age, they have experienced a lot.I have survived hard times, seen great battles, and experienced power changes. From education to practical operations to summary, I have rich experience, and all of them are real future successors.
The most dazzling one is the first secretary of the Minister of Internal Affairs, Lan Yuer.Don't be fooled by her name and appearance. According to the alliance officials, this girl is a devil in the skin of an angel.
She has been a non-staff employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs since she was more than 10 years old. She has been with Lin Na, Minister of Internal Affairs, and has learned everything she can learn. crushed.If it weren't for being too young, it would be easy to be elected as a minister.
And the few children who grew up with her are also excellent, some serve in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, some serve in the army, and they are all stars of hope in their respective fields.And the relationship between each other is very deep, and it has faintly formed a three-generation circle, and the energy is getting bigger and bigger with the growth of youth.
The things that Lin Na hadn't been able to deal with in recent years were basically handled by this secretary.But today she came out to meet Jiang Menshen in person, and even chose a public place, the twists and turns in it were beyond Shen Nan's comprehension.But he felt that it might not be a good thing, and he could only resign himself to fate if he would be unlucky along with himself.
"My surname is Lan. Earlier tonight, the Ministry of Internal Affairs seized two carriages on the way to the safe zone, and found the cargo list in the driver's watch case. I won't say what it is, you must more clearly.
The coachman involved in the case is dead, and the out-of-town businessman with whom you do business will soon be dead too.All the goods are confiscated, you can go back and cry, I want to see who wants these things.
What Antong Machinery Company has done these years has long been clear to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Why don't you move? I will give you a clear answer today. It is to save face for some people, but don't shame face!
Last week, two officials from the Ministry of Machinery died in the Jinmen Port Industrial Zone. Their case ends here and will be the last.If the internal members of the alliance are involved in the future, we will settle the old and new scores together.I invited you here today to save face for someone... Let him go! "
Lan Yu'er didn't look at Jiang Menshen from the beginning to the end, picked up the documents one by one and read out the trial, and spoke in a very peaceful tone, and didn't intend to listen to any explanation or defense.
In less than 2 minutes, the words were finished, and with a slight wave of his hand, the man standing by the wall opened the door, sent Jiang Menshen out with eyes that could not be opposed, and the door closed again.
Chapter 698 Ultimatum 2
"Boss Shen, did that old man tell you not to listen to things you shouldn't listen to? But you heard a lot of things you shouldn't listen to today, and he didn't say how to protect yourself in this situation?"
Jiang Menshen left, and Lan Yu'er finished her work, packed the documents and got up to leave, but suddenly found a person sitting behind the desk and stopped, blinking her big eyes and asking a question.
"I, I didn't hear anything..." Shen Nan felt that she had learned a lot. This woman looked much younger than the youngest technician in the entertainment city, but she was so shameless that no master could catch her.
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Lan Yu'er tilted her head, as if thinking hard about this question.
"No, no... I know the seriousness. I have never been a talkative person. I really didn't see anything today! I replaced the waiter outside and the old man watching the car overnight, so I promise not to cause any trouble!"
Shen Nan swallowed, and remembered a clear saying, only women and villains are hard to raise!If it were a man, he would clearly express what he wanted to achieve, but this woman didn't say, she let you guess!The problem is that if you guess wrong, you may die!
"Hmph, Boss Shen, do you think that the Ministry of Internal Affairs can't find a place where you can talk peacefully, so you have to borrow precious land? It seems that your master didn't educate you well, or you are too stupid. Tell your croupier, it’s okay to lose a little, but don’t lose too much, be careful to lose all your business!”
Lan Yu'er seemed to have heard Shen Nan's heartfelt voice, she put on a serious face, said a few words coldly, and walked towards the door without looking back.The man standing against the wall also left, and the door was closed again, leaving only the clear and rhythmic sound of heels hitting the ground in the corridor getting farther and farther away.
"Ah Nan, what the hell is going on here!" After a while, the door opened again, the fairy wind was gone, and the master, who had softened his bones, hurried in, his face full of anxiety.He was the one who was most worried, he didn't hear anything, he just stood in the cold wind and guessed.
"...Master, what do you mean by her?" Shen Nan didn't bother to give up his seat to the master, and told all the things that happened in this room just now, and then looked at the old man opposite with longing.
"Phew... so annoying... This fucking Jiang deserves to be hacked into pieces. He pulled a bag of shit and almost got us both involved." Unexpectedly, he regained his [-]% strength, regained his airs, twisted his beard with his hand and shook his head.
"It's nothing to do with us?"
"Who said no? Come, come, go to bars and restaurants quickly, and talk about this matter with people you know. Pay attention, don't say too much detail, it's probably when you get the meaning..."
"Ah? Can you go out and talk nonsense about this matter?" Shen Nan didn't move, but stared at the master carefully, wanting to see if the old man caught a cold from the cold wind, and he had a fever and talked nonsense.
"Oh, don't even think about it. If she wants to keep it a secret, she can't tell where she is going. She has to run to our place to show off, and she has to come at night when there are most guests!" Seeing the virtue of the apprentice, the master almost gave the rosary in his hand to her. Throw it over, where's your brain?
"...But, why is this!?" Shen Nan still didn't quite understand, if the Ministry of Internal Affairs wanted to create momentum, it didn't need to be so tactful.
"Well... as the saying goes, gods fight with little ghosts, this matter should have nothing to do with us, but it has something to do with it. If you keep your mouth shut, Secretary Lan will definitely not agree. If you let the rumor out, Jiang Menshen will also hate it we!"
To say that Jiang is still old and hot, the teacher in the room did not hear a word of the conversation, Shen Nan's narration alone cannot guess the whole story, but he can understand the central idea, without it, only the eyes are familiar!
"Then, what should we do then?" Shen Nan is not a person who is afraid of things, but just now he was terribly frightened, and the seven souls and six souls are only halfway back, his mind is buzzing, he has no idea, and he is all counting on the master It's a trick.
"Pa...do you even need to ask? No matter how powerful Jiang Menshen is, he is still a company. You still plan to fight hard with the Ministry of Internal Affairs! Ah Nan, don't panic when things happen, don't panic when things happen, what do you mean when you get into trouble? Compared with this incident, what you have lost is sesame seeds! Your previous performance was not bad, so you have to grit your teeth and hold on, and pass this hurdle through ten years of training."
Master slapped the table with his palm, knocking down the pen holder.However, he didn't feel any pain in his hands, and he didn't just want to get angry. Instead, he was a little excited, as if he saw that his successor's martial arts had reached a critical moment of advancement and was about to break through.
In the eyes of businessmen, doing business is like fighting a war. Temporary setbacks do not mean that everything is lost. As long as they can seize the opportunity, a defeat can become a complete victory.Even a tie is considered profitable. Generals who have experienced bloody battles will have different future achievements than generals who have grown up through exercises.
"Lan Yu'er...Mr. Jiang, is there any inside story about what happened in Jinmen Port this time?"
If Jiang Menshen also had a master, and it was really for his future, things might not have come to this point.It's a pity that the one beside him is not the teacher but the teacher's wife. When Ah Jing learned that it was Lan Yu'er who came out for an interview, her face immediately changed, and she began to suspect that Jiang Menshen had something to hide.
"...It should be gone!" Jiang Menshen is naturally not as honest as Shen Nan to the master, and now he wants to make big things into small things.
"What should be? Is there or is it not!" Ah Jing is really not an ordinary person, and she resolutely does not rub the sand in her eyes.
"Hmm...the source of the child may be a bit of a problem...don't worry, it wasn't abducted, or a homeless child found by local children. I don't know the specific situation. Jinmen Port is very chaotic, which is different from here. "
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Jiang Menshen had no choice but to avoid the important ones. He had stayed in the Jinmen Port Industrial Zone for more than two years, and he often went there after coming to the capital. How could he not understand what Bai Liu was doing.
"Mr. Jiang! How did we decide before? Didn't you say that the child was obtained from the Southeast Alliance! No wonder the Ministry of Internal Affairs reacted so strongly, let alone a tigress, if you let...you you...you are playing with fire Do you know? If you continue to play like this, you will not only burn yourself to death, but also affect many people, many people!"
Ah Jing broke out completely, she was really a bit aura when she roared, and she didn't care about the identity of her subordinates, she gesticulated with her fingers and almost poked Jiang Menshen's forehead.
"I, what can I do! Don't let the children in the safe zone move, and the Southeastern Alliance is not an orphanage. With such a long distance, plus finding the right one, there will always be a time lag in between.
But the supply of children cannot be cut off, so I had to prepare a few at Jinmen Port for emergency.It's been a year since I was young, and there was nothing wrong at first, I don't know why this time... Hey, no, the people who went to pick up the goods these two times were all your people.
Oh... I understand, you guys sent them there, in name to pick up the goods, but in reality they murdered people, just like cleaning up Zhang Xiong last time!Now that something has happened, it will be blamed on me in turn! "
Seeing that the matter was brought to light, Jiang Menshen began to complain, and was about to burst into tears when he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he figured out the whole thing.It's not that he has the perspective of God, but the main reason is that he is too familiar with it. He just used this trick two years ago!
"...Mr. Jiang, I suggest that it's better to be cautious in your words and actions. Misfortune comes from your mouth. You don't know the seriousness of this, so you can do it yourself!"
Ah Jing didn't intend to turn against Jiang Menshen, or she didn't have the right to turn against or not to turn against.The important thing now is not to quarrel, but to report the news of Lan Yuer's appearance and wait for further instructions.
"Huh..." Looking at the back of Ah Jing who turned and left, Jiang Menshen sat slumped in the chair, his cheeks blushed from anger and humiliation gradually faded, and turned pale from fear.
What if you don’t understand, what if you understand?As the saying goes, it is easier to get off a pirate ship than it is to get on a pirate ship. I have been on a pirate ship for a long time, and I have sunk too deep, and it is impossible to go down again.
As long as you want to live, you have to work obediently like a donkey. You can't do foreign work. You have to show your grades and ability, otherwise you will go to another world to drink and chat with Zhang Xiong soon.
resist?With what to resist?The Ministry of Internal Affairs is amazing, but in the end, it's not like turning a blind eye and pretending not to see it.This time Secretary Lan was sent to come forward and raised it high and lowered it gently. The purpose was not to warn himself, but to protest to the forces behind Antong Machinery Company.
Even if he can really find the Ministry of Internal Affairs and surrender himself, confess all the inside information.All he got in return was a death, and he committed suicide in fear of crime if he didn't keep it safe.And these inside stories are at most used as bargaining chips for the alliance's high-level executives to exchange interests, and they should do whatever they want.
Chapter 699 Interrupt the investigation
Security Zone No. [-] in the south of the city, on the first floor of Laoshe Teahouse.The storyteller vomited lotus flowers, and the tea drinkers roared with laughter and booing, and from time to time there were a few high-pitched yells from the waiters, as if he had time-traveled into a movie or TV series.
This place is not as high as the threshold of the Three Rings Entertainment City, as long as you are willing to spend a dime, you can get a cup of tea powder, sit in the lobby on the first floor and refill unlimited cups from morning to night, and you can enjoy Mr. Storyteller at noon and night of live performances.For the vast number of refugees, it is a rare entertainment. Drinking tea is secondary, and socializing is the key point.
The consumption level on the second floor is higher. Instead of selling scattered cups of tea, there is a pot of tea. The distance between the tables is wider, and the privacy and environment are better than those on the first floor.
The guests who come here are relatively more elegant in their dress and manners. They want a pot of tea and a plate of melon seeds for snacks. A few people gather around the table and whisper, and most of them are talking about things and business.
In the corner by the window, two men were talking in a low voice. After more than two months of transformation, the skinny monkey could no longer see the shadow of the new refugees, and even the dark face was a little whiter, but it should No meat or no meat.
Hong Tao no longer wore military hiking boots all day long, but changed to the most popular woolen trousers, casual leather shoes, short woolen coats, and a wide-brimmed top hat among the small bosses in the safe zone.
Do as the Romans do, whether you like it or not, neither the good nor the bad can be too conspicuous.Now he is the second head of the albatross transport team, and has separated from the working people at the bottom, so his clothes must match his status.
"Brother Mouse, did you hear that, not only here, but also the hottest topic in all teahouses in the safe zone these days?"
The thin monkey pointed to the bottom of the stairs and signaled Hong Tao to listen carefully. The storyteller was telling a story that happened recently. The general content was about Jiang Menshen, the boss of Antong Machinery Company in the six security areas in the south of Megatron, how did he get in the third-ring entertainment city? deflated.
It is said that that night, Jiang Menshen heard that some new technicians had come to the entertainment city, so he went there with great interest, wanting to try something new.When I got to the place, I found out that the two new technicians had been appointed, so I got angry and insisted on forcing them to give up the technicians.
To say that Jiang Menshen's name is not very good in the safe zone. Although the local forces can't fight him openly, they secretly create some disgusting rumors and stories, and no one will recruit them.
But this time, Jiang Menshen kicked the steel plate hard, and the two guests threatened by him were not good-natured, so they drew their guns on the spot.At the very moment, a group of three stripes came from Hulala, and they beat Jiang Menshen to the ground without any explanation.
"Just listen to the story, don't believe it!"
Hong Tao threw a melon seed kernel into his mouth and sighed inwardly.Although Jiang Menshen is not a good thing, the staff of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are not the positive characters in the story, and the two sides are like dogs biting dogs.
Although 95% of the content of these rumors are fictitious, the mentality of most refugees can be seen from the standpoint of the storyteller. They don't like Jiang Menshen, and they don't like the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
It is normal for the common people not to like the tyrants in Yurou Township, but it is not normal for the people to dislike the government departments that defend their rights.There may be a misunderstanding here, but it does not rule out that they did not enjoy the services they deserved. It can be seen that Lin Na has ruined the reputation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs over the years.
"I can't believe it at all. Didn't you ask me to inquire about Antong Machinery Company? It's really hard to find the door without this. People in the market basically don't know their origins, and I can't ask them desperately. .It’s all right now, no need to inquire about it, someone will say it. I probably sorted it out, and this is basically the situation.”
With his own business, Thin Monkey changed not only his clothes, but also his temperament.Now he has somewhat regained the feeling of opening a store in the Yining base back then, with more confidence and less submissiveness, and then his brains have become better, or his subjective initiative has become stronger.
"I have an impression of that building..." To say that Antong Machinery Company is indeed mysterious enough, it has already been compiled into jokes and preached in teahouses, but there is still not much to know about it.
This company should be considered very low-key at ordinary times, and basically doesn't have much interaction with people in the safe zone. If it weren't for the fact that there were several conflicts with local forces when we first arrived here, it made a lot of noise, and it ended up being called Jiang Menshen. , It is estimated that [-]% of people do not know its existence.
The only thing that can be confirmed now is the company address. Hong Tao remembers this place. Every time he goes to the transportation company to wait for work, he has to walk along the third ring road. The very eye-catching buildings along the way are not to say how tall and powerful they are, but that they are maintained by people, and they look obviously different from abandoned buildings.
"Where do the employees in this company usually live?"
But just knowing the company’s address is useless. This place is not like the safe zone in Xinjiang Province, nor the slums in the Jinmen Port Industrial Zone. At least five safe zones in the south of the city have power supply. Antong Machinery Company only needs to install a few cameras. It is very likely that he will reveal his secrets, and he must not take that risk unless it is absolutely necessary.
"It's quite strange to say, not only Jiang Menshen himself is very mysterious, but also his subordinates. They all live in the company and rarely show up on the street. Now there are only three for sure.
Jiang Menshen's identity card is Jiang Songting, and he is 42 years old. No one can explain his specific origin.There is another one named Chen Yaozu, 51 years old, with a slight southern accent, but I still don't have a specific origin.
He should be in charge of logistics. He often comes to the market to purchase some goods. The quantity is not small. From the type, it does not seem to be for his own use, but more likely to be resold, but it is still unclear who he sells to.
The last one is Li Youliang, 35 years old, Jinmen port voice. It is said that he is Jiang Menshen's personal bodyguard. "
Thin Monkey didn't ask him to investigate the purpose of Antong Machinery Company, but the work was more meticulous, but it was a pity that he encountered some stubble.There are so many merchants in the market, but no one can explain clearly, which made him a little interested.
"But no matter how cunning a fox is, it can't escape a good hunter. I went there myself the day before yesterday... That's right, Chen Yaozu bought a few batteries at my booth, and I deliberately put two batteries in them that were not fully charged. The guy got it back in the afternoon.
