"The situation in Shanghai has been temporarily stabilized."
Wang Yixin also sighed with emotion: "As soon as Meng Shaoyuan came back, he kept causing such big things. Now, the agents on No. 76 have become much more low-key and honest.
Our lives are getting better, and we can use this time to accelerate our development and strengthen ourselves. "
"Yes, District Chief."
His assistant Ren Shize was a little dissatisfied: "But District Chief, what does this mean? Meng Shaoyuan arrived in Shanghai and didn't even meet you?
Commanders such as Zhao Yun, Xiahou Dun, and Zhu Shanyuan did not take us seriously, but obeyed Meng Shaoyuan's orders, showing no organization or discipline. "
"You can't say that."
Wang Yixin still has a good temper: "After all, these people were trained by Meng Shaoyuan. It is reasonable for them to listen to Meng Shaoyuan.
Besides, no matter what, Meng Shaoyuan was the director of the Supervision Office of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai provinces, and was my boss. Whether the boss comes to see his subordinates or not is not something we can decide. "
"But……"
Before Ren Shize finished speaking, a subordinate had already walked in: "District Chief, your letter."
"Oh, who sent it?"
"Zhao Yun!"
"Where are the others?"
"It left as soon as it was delivered."
"Look, look." Ren Shize was immediately dissatisfied: "When people come, they just throw the letter away and leave. What does this mean? What does this mean? Do you think you are being taken seriously?"
Wang Yixin smiled, opened the letter and read it carefully.
After reading, collect the letter.
"District Chief, what is Zhao Yun going to do?"
"Oh, it's nothing." Wang Yixin said casually: "Ask me for funds."
"What? Need funds?"
Ren Shize shouted: "How can there be such a subordinate? You just write a letter when you want funds? It's so outrageous, so outrageous."
"Okay, let's go do some work."
Wang Yixin sent the people away.
He closed the office door and took out the letter again.
Then, he took out a match and lit the letter.
In the light of the fire, he picked up the phone and dialed a number:
"Hello, I'm Tongshun Fur Store, I'm looking for Boss Cai..."
…
The Tang Bowu family stood there tremblingly, not daring to move.
Tang Bowu never dreamed that he could actually see this evil star:
Meng Shaoyuan!
Meng Shaoyuan sat there, concentrating on peeling an apple.
The room was so quiet that it felt scary.
After the apple was peeled, Meng Shaoyuan handed over his hand: "Boss Tang, want to eat the apple?"
"No, no need." Tang Bowu trembled.
"If you don't eat it, then I'll eat it."
Meng Shaoyuan took a bite of the apple and said, "Yeah, sweet. To say the least, you, Mr. Tang, can live a good life and eat such good apples, but the brothers under me may not even be able to afford food at the moment."
How could Tang Bowu dare to intervene?
Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "When I was in Shanghai, I set up a system of atonement for you, and everyone was in peace. But as soon as I left, it seems that you, Boss Tang, don't take me seriously anymore?"
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Tang Bowu was covered in sweat: "After the Japanese entered the concession, they imposed too many excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, which was really hard to cope with. There was some problem with the funds of the trumpet, resulting in a lack of liquidity."
"Yes, it's difficult to do business now." Meng Shaoyuan sympathized: "But no matter how much the Japanese impose excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, you, Boss Tang, still pay them without fail. You still don't get a dime from my little money.
Not only you, but also Xie Zuxiang, the same is true. To be honest, I'm quite angry. You know that I value wealth as much as life, so I killed Xie Zuxiang's entire family in a fit of rage! "
Tang Bowu fell to his knees on the ground with a pop:
"Boss Meng, I was wrong, I was wrong. When Xie Zuxiang was alive, he threatened that none of us would be allowed to pay any more 'atonement', otherwise we would be sent to the Japanese Military Police.
We are all afraid, we are all forced. Don't worry, don't worry, I'll collect the atonement money during this period together with the interest and send it to you. "
"Well, this is what you said, I didn't force you. Well, this apple is so damn sweet."
Meng Shaoyuan was full of praise: "Boss Tang, don't blame me in your heart. Not only can't you complain, but you must also be grateful to me. Why? I am leaving a way out for you.
Do you think that now that Japan has occupied Shanghai, it can continue to occupy it? Can you traitors always be so happy and free? Have you ever thought about what would happen to the Japanese after they were defeated?
You must be thinking right now, how could the Japanese be defeated? How could your master lose? You guys are just too short-sighted. Let me tell you about the international situation. After the United States and Japan went to war in the Pacific..."
He talked there for about an hour.
At this time, the Tang family's phone rang.
Li Zhifeng stepped forward to take the phone, and a voice came from the other end:
"Hello, I'm Tongshun Fur Store, I'm looking for Boss Cai."
"I understand, please wait a moment."
Li Zhifeng put the phone aside and walked to Meng Shaoyuan: "Your phone number."
"Well, help me continue teaching Boss Tang, Lao Li, this apple is so sweet."
"Yeah, is it so sweet?"
Li Zhifeng picked up an apple and ate it in one gulp: "Don't tell me, it's sweet. Boss Tang, you must be wondering, why did this call from our boss reach you?"
As for you, don't make blind guesses, we did it on purpose. This Tianhu is at your house. All the phone calls to him have been made here. When word spread, the Japanese analyzed it and thought, come on, this is a contact point for the military commander. "
Tang Bowu felt like crying but had no tears.
Li Zhifeng ate with gusto: "We know you were wronged, but the Japanese and Li Shiqun don't know. If we spread the news again, saying that you, Boss Tang, are pretending to be a traitor but actually working for the military, what do you think the Japanese and Li Shiqun will do to you? ?”
"Sir, the lives of me and my whole family are in your hands."
Tang Bowu, who was kneeling on the ground, begged repeatedly: "I promise that I will never be a traitor again. Please be noble and let us go. Let us go."
Li Zhifeng and Tang Bowu chatted for more than ten minutes, and Meng Shaoyuan came back: "How's it going?"
"Boss Tang's consciousness is still very high."
"That's good." Meng Shaoyuan looked very satisfied: "Boss Tang, no matter whether I am in Shanghai or not, we must remain consistent. This time, I will spare your life. It will be very difficult for me to come to visit next time. .”
"Boss Meng, don't worry, I will never be a traitor again."
Tang Bowu swore an oath.
This time, he was really scared.
These people are so cruel.
He actually framed himself.
The Japanese and Li Shiqun will never listen to their own excuses.
"It's done. Remember what you promised me. Three days later, I will send someone to collect the ransom. By the way, prepare another basket of apples like this for me. Thank you very much, Boss Tang."
Meng Shaoyuan picked up his coat, smiled, and left Tang Bowu's house. (To be continued)
