Although Tang Dujin is much older than Meng Shaoyuan, he is far different from Meng Shaoyuan in terms of social experience and conduct.
In a few words, Song Ziwen's favorite review specialist had already introduced Meng Shaoyuan as a confidant.
I just feel that the world is big and most of them are mediocre people. Although Song Ziwen treats me very kindly, it is a pity that he is in a high position and has too little time to talk to me. Only Meng Shaoyuan is considerate and shrewd. capable.
He killed all Xue Sanqiang.
You said that the National Government has so many officials, so many troops, the British equipment of the Guangxi Army, and the German equipment of the Central Army, all of them are armed to the teeth, but for so many years, a small lake bandit has been allowed to run rampant and harm Taihu Lake. , helpless.
But as soon as this little spy from the Lixing Society appeared, with a single move, the gangsters were wiped out.
Such a talented person is actually just a small team leader?
How unfair the employment is!
He thought that after safely escaping this time and returning to Nanjing, he would always find an opportunity to go to Shanghai and recommend Team Leader Meng to Song Ziwen.
Pearls cannot be buried in the soil.
He probably never would have thought that this was exactly Meng Shaoyuan's purpose.
It is absolutely impossible for Song Ziwen to suddenly favor him.
However, at the very least, he must remember a name in his mind:
Meng Shaoyuan!
In this way, no matter what he is asked to do in the future, when the other party hears it, oh, it turns out that this person is Meng Shaoyuan.
In this way, the goal is achieved.
After chatting there for a while, Meng Shaoyuan used words to induce Tang Dujin to remember the things he wanted to remember.
Then he got up and asked Tang Dujin to take a bath and put on clean clothes.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he called Ji Yifan in and told him to find two special agents to escort Tang Dujin back to Nanjing. There must be no problems on the way.
Ji Yifan was convinced by him at this time and agreed immediately.
Tang Dujin finished bathing and changing clothes. When he came back, his face was radiant, as if he was a different person.
"Young Master Tang has extraordinary magnanimity. He is indeed worthy of being a famous empress." Meng Shaoyuan gave him a thumbs up and flattered him: "Young Master Tang, during this bandit suppression, we seized some stolen property of Xue bandits. As for me, I miss Tang. The young master suffered such a fright, that Xue bandit is really disgusting. Therefore, Shao Yuan had the courage to ask Mr. Tang to bring back a box of stolen goods, which can be regarded as a relief. "
Tang Dujin was startled, never expecting such a good thing to happen.
He was lucky to be able to escape from danger this time, but Meng Shaoyuan actually wanted to give him such a generous gift?
"Team Leader Meng, this won't work, this won't work." Tang Dujin said quickly: "This is what you and your brothers paid for with your lives. Although Mr. Tang is too lazy to take care of things, he is still clear about some things. You bleed and sweat. , Who is willing to fight for fame and fortune? Therefore, Mr. Tang will never accept this box."
Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "Young Master Tang is so upright and upright. Compared with you, Shao Yuan really feels ashamed. However, Mr. Tang, Shao Yuan says a few words from the bottom of his heart. Although you are aloof and arrogant, and lazy to join the common world, now we have some The government departments are extremely corrupt. They are drunk and dreamy. They only care about money and beauty. They never care about the country and the people's livelihood. How can it continue like this?
When Mr. Song of the Ministry of Finance was here, he was full of energy and made great achievements. But now that Kong came to power, the atmosphere suddenly changed. Think about it, why did Mr. Song keep you in the Ministry of Finance when he left? Why can't I take you with me? That has a profound meaning. Mr. Song knows that you are capable and capable, and wants you to stay there and help him look after the country he has worked so hard to build for the future. "
He was talking freely there, and Tang Dujin suddenly realized what he was talking about.
That's it, that's it.
No wonder Uncle Ziwen went to serve as the chairman of the Bank of China, and he asked to go with him, but Uncle Ziwen repeatedly refused. He only told him to practice in the Ministry of Finance for a while before giving him a heavy responsibility.
I am so confused that I am so disheartened that I focus on the mountains and rivers.
Ridiculous, ridiculous, this completely failed Uncle Ziwen's high expectations for him.
Meng Shaoyuan was definitely not talking nonsense this time, but just guessing.
Why did Song Ziwen leave Tang Dujin in the Ministry of Finance? He needs someone to keep an eye on him and report his movements at any time.
However, this young master of Tang Dynasty did not understand Song Ziwen's painstaking efforts at all.
"Mr. Tang, Shao Yuan is bold and wants to ask, do you know what to do and what to say when you go back this time?" Meng Shaoyuan suddenly asked.
Of course Tang Dujin didn't care at all: "Of course, to be honest, Xue Bandit is hateful. He dared to kidnap important government officials. He committed a heinous crime and deserves to die!"
"This is roughly what Shao Yuan wrote in the work report he wrote after he returned." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Meng Shaoyuan was ordered to suppress bandits. On an unnamed island in the Yangtze River in Jiangyin, Tang Du, the inspection and audit commissioner of the Ministry of Finance, was found. Jin, armed with guns, fought fiercely with more than ten gangsters, and Meng Shaoyuan rescued him.
Tang Dujin was rescued. Although he was covered in blood, in a very miserable state, and extremely weak, his heroic demeanor remained intact. After being rescued, he ordered his two followers to be buried properly, and he immediately fell into a coma.
After waking up, Meng Shaoyuan asked. It turned out that Tang Dujin arrived in Wuxi all the way. He did not want to be besieged by Xue bandits and attempted to kidnap him. Tang Dujin swore to death and was not a prisoner. He fought and retreated with his followers and fled to a small island in the middle of the river. All his followers died. Tang Dujin swore to death and was not a prisoner. Dujin fought to the death and was trapped for several days, eating grass roots, bark, and sewage to satisfy his hunger.
When Meng Shaoyuan arrived, Tang Dujin had run out of ammunition and food, was exhausted, and was about to commit suicide and die for his country! "
Tang Dujin was stunned when he heard this.
Is there any other operation like this?
There is an essential difference between being kidnapped by lake bandits and fighting to the death with the lake bandits.
But the problem is, this is nonsense. How can I be so capable?
He doesn't even know how to use a gun.
Tang Dujin still wanted to save face, and said calmly: "Here, Team Leader Meng, you are going to report like this. I will say this when I go back. I'm afraid no one will believe it, right? Tang is just a scholar, and he has no power to tie a chicken." "
"With the great kindness of the country in mind, all human potential is stimulated. What kind of miracle can't happen?" Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Anyway, this is what I wrote in the report, and I am willing to testify for Mr. Tang. As for Mr. Tang after he returns, , does anyone believe what you say? That depends on it."
He patted the box.
Tang Dujin was just a noble person and definitely not an idiot. He immediately understood Meng Shaoyuan's move.
Money opens the way and benefits everyone.
Whether his reports are true or false, those who get the benefits will never interfere with them.
With such merit, his status in the Ministry of Finance suddenly changed greatly.
What's more important is that there are also these agents from Lixingshe who can help him testify.
The gratitude in Tang Dujin's heart cannot be described in words.
Not only did he save his life, but he also helped him plan it in such detail after he returned. This is his great benefactor.
"Team Leader Meng, I remember, I remember." Tang Dujin was extremely grateful: "Team Leader Meng was so kind to me in saving my life and put himself in my shoes. Mr. Tang thought, this thought..."
He received a new education and always looked down upon old-school things, so he had an idea in his mind, but he could never express it.
Meng Shaoyuan was a good person and immediately understood what he wanted to say.
OK, you can’t tell it, I’ll tell it for you.
"Mr. Tang, Shao Yuan has a merciless request."
"Please say, please say."
"Shaoyuan and Mr. Tang have very different statuses, but they want to shamelessly make a blood alliance with Mr. Tang, imitate Taoyuan, and become brothers with different surnames!"
Tang Dujin was overjoyed. Isn't that what he was thinking?
First of all, this Meng Shaoyuan is really to his liking.
Second point, he knew very well what happened when he was kidnapped this time.
As long as Meng Shaoyuan bites himself to death and fights to the end, others will not know the truth.
And the most important point is that Meng Shaoyuan's words made him excited. He wanted to do a good job in the Ministry of Finance and be able to be used by Song Ziwen in the future.
If you can have a smart and alert agent from the Lixing Society to act as your external support, it will be much easier to do things in the future.
It's just that he has a noble character, so it's a bit difficult for him to say that he is bound to Jinlan.
Meng Shaoyuan took the initiative to bring it up, and Tang Dujin immediately followed suit: "What did Shaoyuan say? You saved my life. I have long wanted to become brothers with you. Come on, let's set up the incense table and kill the chicken immediately." We shed blood and became brothers!"
"No, no." Meng Shaoyuan said unexpectedly: "This matter must not be done with a big fanfare or forming cliques for personal gain. That is the most taboo above. In order to avoid giving people an excuse, I think we only need to know in our hearts that we are brothers. .”
Needless to say, Tang Dujin felt grateful.
Meng Shaoyuan was always thinking about himself.
"Shao Yuan, what do you want me to say? I think it's okay to sacrifice blood, but the formality has to be done."
After saying that, he took Meng Shaoyuan's hand and knelt on the ground: "The yellow sky is above and the thick earth is below. Today Tang Dujin and Meng Shaoyuan have become brothers. From now on, they will share blessings and share hardships. If there is If you are half-hearted, the sky will thunder and you will die a good death!"
It turns out that he couldn't say these words no matter what.
Meng Shaoyuan also imitated the words and helped Tang Dujin up: "Brother!"
"Brother Shaoyuan!"
The cry of "Brother Shaoyuan" made Meng Shaoyuan's skin crawl.
It can be said that a hub has been established with the higher-ups.
Although there is no benefit from placing this chess piece now, when it is used in the future, its importance will be self-evident.
I have worked so hard to get this effect.
"Brother is suffering here. Let's take a short rest. I will arrange for two people to escort eldest brother back to Nanjing first." Meng Shaoyuan had already made arrangements: "Usually, you and I treat each other as brothers in private, but in official situations, everything is still the same. old."
"Exactly, exactly, I have the same idea as you." Tang Dujin nodded repeatedly: "Then I will go back first, Shao Yuan, see you in Nanjing!"
