In the twenty-sixth year of the Republic of China, the tenth day of February in the Gregorian calendar, the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month.

Chinese New Year's Eve.

It was still afternoon, and the streets were already crackling with firecrackers.

This is the year of real flavor.

Those guys in the second place have long been a little absent-minded.

I can't wait to fly home right now.

But isn't it still time to get off work?

Those brothers under Meng Shaoyuan's subordinates can have a good year this time.

Section Chief Meng not only paid a very generous New Year's fee, but also gave everyone pork knuckle, big herring or something.

Actually, the whole two places, this year can be very good.

This is mainly due to the establishment of UBI.

Although through smuggling, more than half of the profits went to Meng Shaoyuan's Fortune Company's accounts, a large number had accumulated in the accounts of Li Tong's company.

Dai Li instructed Meng Shaoyuan to take out a part of it and give the people in the second place a good New Year.

Moreover, Dai Li really took special care of Meng Shaoyuan, and in front of several section chiefs, he revealed intentionally or unintentionally that all the money was earned back by Meng Shaoyuan.

In this way, Meng Shaoyuan immediately became "his own person" in the minds of these section chiefs and unit chiefs.

Many section chiefs and chiefs knew that Meng Shaoyuan was alone in Nanjing, and they invited him to their homes for a big meal, so they could be close to him.

It's a pity that Meng Shaoyuan had already made an appointment, so he could only refuse them one by one.

"Hey, the call is coming, gather in the courtyard, Director Dai wants to give a lecture."

Soon, the courtyard was crowded with spies large and small.

After a while, Dai Li walked out and glanced at his subordinates: "Are you waiting to go home from work for the New Year?" ”

A few people had embarrassed smiles on their faces.

"If you are kept so hard, you don't have the heart to do things." Dai Li smiled: "Except for the deputy section chief and above, continue to stay, everyone else should go back!" ”

When these words were spoken, there was a warm cheer.

Director Dai is wise!

It didn't take long for the two places that were still lively just now to become deserted.

The cadres who remained behind were all called to the conference room.

"Don't blame me, who made you all cadres?"

Dai Li's opening remarks are this: "I know that all of you here have wives and children, and you are more anxious to go home than anyone else, and you finally have to wait for a year, and as a result, you will continue to come back to work tomorrow afternoon." I'm not an unsympathetic person, so I'll just say a few words, except for the left-behind personnel on duty, all of them went home for the New Year. ”

The cadres laughed.

Dai Li continued: "The Third Plenary Session of the Fifth Central Committee is about to be held, we cooperate with the Military Police Command and the Garrison Command to be responsible for public security in Nanjing. ”

Speaking of this, his eyes fell on Meng Shaoyuan: "Meng Shaoyuan, the various squads of the Operations Section, to control the people on our suspect list, in addition, your special operations team, as a mobile force, I will send two vehicles to you, where you need it, appear as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!"

It was not until now that at least more than half of the people in the conference room knew that there was a special operations group in the second place, and it was also controlled by Meng Shaoyuan himself.

Director Dai really didn't say anything about Meng Shaoyuan's treatment.

After explaining the task there, Dai Li looked at the time: "End the meeting and go back for the New Year." ”

Those on duty today are Dai Li and Tang Zong.

Meng Shaoyuan hesitated: "Director Dai, Section Chief Tang, if you go back for the New Year, I will be on duty." Anyway, I'm alone, and I don't have anything to worry about. ”

Dai Li and Tang Zong glanced at each other: "Old Tang, I heard that none of those prisoners could lie in front of Meng Shaoyuan, so take a look now, is what our Deputy Section Chief of Dream said the truth or a lie?" ”

Tang Zong looked at it seriously: "He's lying!" Judging by his appearance, his brothers were already waiting at his house to go back. ”

Embarrassing.

This old Tang is too faceless.

A smile flashed at the corner of Dai Li's mouth: "Lie in front of the leader and make a note for you." Hurry up and get out of here, let's go back. By the way, Lao Tang has a treat on the second night of the first day, don't forget to go. ”

Meng Shaoyuan's house was already lively.

Zhu Yanni helped Zhao Changle's daughter-in-law Mu Guixiang to be busy in the kitchen, and the men were all playing pai gow there.

Lu Yixuan also brought his apprentice Ren Yinghao here, and as soon as this year passed, he had to take a group of people to Chongqing.

Ren Yinghao was not qualified to sit there, so he waited with tea and water on the side.

"Ouch, it's hilarious."

Yue Zhenchuan and Wei Yunzhe pushed the door in, and when they saw that they were playing pai gow, their eyes immediately lit up: "I'll push the village, I'll push the village!" ”

Lu Yixuan, who was originally pushing the village there, had good luck and won a lot of money, and when he heard Yue Zhenchuan say this, he just borrowed the donkey from the slope and gave the dealer to him.

"Down, down. The more under the more wins the more. ”

Where does Yue Zhenchuan still look like an officer at this time, just like a gambler in a casino.

Money on a table on the countertop.

Yue Zhenchuan took a look at their cards, picked up his pai gow, and said something in his mouth: "Eight dry and four dimensions, Wen Chengwu is not enough, Ding three with two four, the monkey king is in the heavenly palace!" Kill! ”

The last card was touched, and then the tone changed greatly: "I grass!" ”

Plum blossoms with red heads, no point!

Compensation!

There was a lot of schadenfreude laughter at the table.

"Come again, come again, I believe in him!"

By the time Meng Shaoyuan came back, Yue Zhenchuan's eyes were red, his face was pale, and he was in a cold sweat.

made Meng Shaoyuan think he was sick.

Lu Yixuan is still the big winner.

It's the first time Guo Rui has played this, and he actually won a few small wins.

"Section Chief Meng, together?"

"I won't." Meng Shaoyuan shook his head again and again: "I said Yue Zhenchuan, you have lost all your money, right?" ”

"They're starting to ask me to borrow money." Wei Yunzhe muttered: "This person is a good gambler, and his monthly salary will be paid to his hands, or he will lose it in a few days." I said Lao Yue, when will you pay back? ”

"Owe, owe."

Yue Zhenchuan's deck of cards won a small head and lost a big head.

By the time the kitchen called for dinner, Yue Zhenchuan was already in debt.

"Wait, wait." Lu Yixuan suddenly said: "In this way, I will help pay back the money that Lao Yue owes you." ”

And such a good thing?

Yue Zhenchuan was overjoyed, and was about to say thank you, but Lu Yixuan immediately said: "Old Yue, in this way, you give me a note, and when I borrow yours, the monthly interest will be two cents, and the interest will be rolled." ”

"It doesn't have to be like this. And interest, rollover? ”

"Isn't this a brother's reckoning?" Lu Yixuan enlightened him there: "You think, instead of owing so many people and having to pay off the debts every month, it is better to owe me alone." Anyway, I'm in Chongqing, so I won't always stare at you to collect debts, right? ”

Yue Zhenchuan thought about it, and readily wrote him an IOU according to Lu Yixuan's meaning.

Meng Shaoyuan shook his head with a smile.

Poor Yue Zhenchuan, this can be regarded as going into the water.

This Lu Yixuan is a profiteer, his money is so easy to borrow?

Wait until the next time we meet, Yue Zhenchuan is not sure how much money he owes.

One dish after another came up.

Tian Qi pulled Lu Yixuan aside and whispered, "Yue Zhenchuan's strips, you will transfer them to me with one percent?" ”

"Isn't it too little?" Lu Yixuan is sneaky.

"It's almost, you yourself know that it is difficult to get debts from Chongqing to Nanjing, and it is convenient for me here. And you can make a profit when you change hands. ”

"Twenty percent."

"Five out of five."

"Deal!"

How did Yue Zhenchuan know that it had only been a few minutes, and his creditors had already been replaced.

A table full of dishes, several bottles of wine.

Wine was poured into the bowl, and the brothers coaxed Meng Shaoyuan to say a few words.

Meng Shaoyuan was also not polite, and cleared his throat:

"I entered the second place in June last year, and in a blink of an eye, it has been eight months, and most of the people here are old brothers. But there's one less person, Lao Mu. ”

Zhao Changle's eyes suddenly turned red.

"I suggest, this first bowl of wine, respect Lao Mu!"

"Respect for the elderly!"

Meng Shaoyuan immediately said: "It's not easy for our parents to give birth to our group of people, and then let us get together. Just our guys, we have done a lot of things in the past eight months, and everyone is scolding us for being dog spies behind our backs, but we, dog spies, have a clear conscience, this bowl of wine, toast dog spies! ”

"Dog spies!"

For the first time, all of them said the word "dog agent" so justifiably.

"I propose, I propose." Zhu Yanni hurriedly said: "The third bowl of wine, we have to pay tribute to Section Chief Meng, Section Chief Meng took us to be promoted and made a fortune, who would have thought before this?" I'm in charge of translating telegrams, and now I'm actually an official. So, this bowl of wine, toast the dog's head! ”

"To the dog's head!"

No way!

Meng Shaoyuan couldn't cry or laugh, the head of the dog spy is the head of the dog?

Who came up with it?

The three bowls of wine were toasted, and the scene immediately became lively.

Yue Zhenchuan pulled Yuan Zhonghe to punch there, and the others either toasted or blew blindly.

Follow Section Chief Meng, that's a real rush.

can be an official and make money.

"Ren Yinghao, don't be restrained, eat." Meng Shaoyuan found that Ren Yinghao didn't move his chopsticks, and he specially explained: "You did a good job this time, so that all the New Year's goods you purchased were purchased, and the price was low." Lu Jinshi didn't misread you. ”

"Thank you, Boss Meng." It was the first time for Ren Yinghao to eat with such a "big" official, and he couldn't help but let go.

Lu Yixuan took a sip of wine: "Yinghao, follow Boss Meng well, that is the most promising, look at me, a down-and-out jinshi, now I eat and wear, and the champions of the Qing Dynasty at that time are not as good as me." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Jinshi said with a smile: "I was in Chongqing, I met a person, coincidentally, Jinshi who is on the same list as me, guess what they are doing now?" Set up a stall and write letters to people for a living. The handwriting is really beautiful, but it's a pity, it's a pity. ”

Tian Qi remained silent, and put a pig's trotter into Lu Yixuan's bowl: "Lu Jinshi, you eat a pig's trotter." ”

Lu Yixuan was stunned for a moment, then remembered the interrogation room, and his old face suddenly turned red.

The few people on the side who knew about this stalk were all laughing.
