The Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Anti-Smuggling Offices were established impatiently.
This is a God-given opportunity for Meng Shaoyuan.
The opportunity to unify the smuggling industry in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai is right in front of us.
Although, the future is definitely full of obstacles.
Who is willing to give up such a big piece of fat?
"There are several smuggling kings in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, Bai Maofeng, who mainly smuggles in northern Jiangsu. This man is an outlaw... Jiao Mingcheng from Zhejiang is not only related to the government, but also has a good relationship with the Yu family..."
Facing the newly appointed deputy director of the Anti-Smuggling Division, Fa Zheng, Meng Shaoyuan introduced him carefully.
To be honest, he already had clear information about these big smugglers in the past.
Unfortunately, there has never been a suitable excuse to attack them.
"Report!"
Qi Xuezhen hurriedly walked in: "Supervisor Pang Pengde of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Anti-Smuggling Division has arrived in Shanghai."
"So fast? So impatient?"
Meng Shaoyuan was also startled: "Damn it, are you so impatient to get a real power position?"
"Director Meng, what should we do?"
"Welcome him immediately and strictly protect his safety. No accidents are allowed. Once you receive him, find a place to settle down first."
Meng Shaoyuan pondered for a moment: "Qi Xuezhen, book a table for me at the International Hotel tonight. It must be of the highest standard!"
"Understood."
"Fazheng, we, the two chief and deputy directors, will go and meet with Supervisor Pang tonight."
…
International Hotel.
Meng Shaoyuan, Director of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Anti-Smuggling Division of the Military Command Bureau, Fa Zheng, Deputy Director, and Wu Jingyi, Shanghai District Secretary of the Military Command Bureau, had already arrived early.
This lineup has given Pang Pengde enough face, right?
After a while, the door of the box opened.
Qi Xuezhen walked in first: "Director Pang, please."
Meng Shaoyuan and the other three stood up immediately.
A man wearing a Chinese tunic suit, with a thin face and a sexy face walked in.
Pang Pengde, Supervisor of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Anti-Smuggling Department!
"Director Pang!"
Meng Shaoyuan was full of enthusiasm and stepped forward to shake his hand: "My name is Meng Shaoyuan. Oh, we have been looking forward to your arrival. It has been a hard journey. Did you encounter any danger?"
"Thank you, Director Meng, for your trouble. The journey has been smooth." Pang Pengde said lightly: "Pang has a heavy responsibility and does not dare to delay. After receiving the appointment, he set off immediately. I hope he did not delay his work."
"No, no, Supervisor Pang, please take a seat." Meng Shaoyuan introduced Wu Jingyi and Fazheng to him, and then said: "Qi Xuezhen, order the dishes to be served."
After saying that, he explained: "Director Pang, the waiters who serve the dishes are also our people who serve temporarily, so it is absolutely safe here."
Pang Pengde nodded slightly: "I have heard about Director Meng's work ability and illustrious reputation, so naturally I feel relieved."
"Pour the wine."
A total of two kinds of wine were prepared.
One is Maotai and the other is red wine.
"What kind of wine does Supervisor Pang drink?" Meng Shaoyuan asked tentatively.
"During the war, if you don't want to drink, Director Meng can drink it by himself. I'll just drink some tea."
cut.
Meng Shaoyuan was very disapproving and winked at Fazheng.
Fazheng didn't care whether Pang Pengde drank or not. He poured Maotai into four glasses and put a cup in front of Pang Pengde.
Meng Shaoyuan raised the wine cup: "Come on, today I'm here to support Director Pang, let's do it!"
He, Fazheng, and Wu Jingyi all drank, but Pang Pengde really only took a sip of tea.
Dishes were served one after another.
In order to entertain Pang Pengde, Meng Shaoyuan did his best.
"Director Pang, please have a meal. I heard that Pang Pengde is from Hubei, so we specially prepared some Hubei dishes."
Pang Pengde did not move his chopsticks, looked at the delicacies on the table, and sighed deeply: "Yes, I am from Xiaogan, Hubei Province. Thank you Director Meng for your kindness... I often heard a saying when I was in Chongqing, it is called "The situation ahead is tight" , the rear is tight, hey, when I see him this time in Shanghai, his words are true."
Meng Shaoyuan was unhappy, really unhappy.
Old guy, why do you get so many weird remarks about inviting you to dinner?
"Director Pang's words are a little inappropriate." Fazheng smiled slightly: "Chongqing is the rear area. I don't know if it is tight or not. Director Pang has the most say. But for me in Shanghai, that is the real front line. There are Japanese people everywhere around us. Being able to have a good meal surrounded by Japanese people is also my ability to work in Shanghai."
Meng Shaoyuan was overjoyed that this boy could talk.
Sure enough, Pang Pengde's face was slightly embarrassed. It seems that I really said the wrong thing.
Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "No need to worry, Director Pang. I can still afford to treat you to a meal. I have a heavy workload in Shanghai and am in danger every day. After this meal, I don't know where my next meal will be." , Director Pang, please let go and eat."
Pang Pengde still didn't move his chopsticks: "I'm thinking, if I can save on this meal, how many bullets can I buy? How many Japanese can I kill? I feel sad."
"Director Pang."
This time it was Fazheng who spoke again: "Food and these things don't matter. Since the Anti-Japanese War, we in Shanghai District have purchased a large amount of bullets and medicines for the army. Even this time, we also sent a large amount of medicines and urgently needed supplies for the army to Changsha. For this, Commander Xue also expressed his special gratitude.”
Wu Jingyi said: "Director Pang, the enemy-occupied areas are different from other places, especially in Shanghai. The nature of the work is quite special, so the way of struggle is also different from other places. Our Director Meng once said that we all We are risking our lives against the enemy with our heads high. Why should we be frugal while the Japanese traitors can eat and drink so much? We will not accept this loss."
Pang Pengde glanced at Wu Jingyi and said "Oh": "That's because I am ignorant, but I am tired from the journey and really have no appetite. Director Meng, thank you for this meal. I won't accompany you anymore. I will go back now." Rest. Tomorrow, we will discuss in detail how the work of the Anti-Smuggling Department should be carried out."
After saying that, he actually stood up and said, "Director Meng, please send someone to take me back."
Meng Shaoyuan was not annoyed: "Then I won't disturb Supervisor Pang's rest. Qi Xuezhen, send Supervisor Pang back."
Watching Pang Pengde leave, he originally thought that Meng Shaoyuan was going to be furious, but unexpectedly Meng Shaoyuan asked: "Did you find anything?"
"What? The intelligence says he is unsociable, and it seems true."
"no."
Meng Shaoyuan shook his head: "This man likes women. I discovered it when he looked at Wu Jingyi just now."
"You don't have nice things to say." Wu Jingyi never expected that he would say such words.
"It's true." Meng Shaoyuan said seriously: "Don't try to hide it from me. When he looked at Wu Jingyi, his eyes were wrong. However, he was deliberately hiding himself and acting like he was not in the world. He was the one who was raped in the past. I have been suppressed for a long time, and I want to be exposed, but I am worried about it, so I carefully hide myself."
Fazheng smiled and said, "Then the staff will know how to deal with him."
