Three days later, Siping City suddenly became lively. More than 200 police officers broke into five or six households at dawn and arrested all of them.

Since then, the anti-gang and evil operation has officially begun. Siping is temporarily not allowed to enter and exit. The police made arrests in Siping City for three days. The prison was soon overcrowded.

On the fifth day, the new notice shocked the entire Siping City. Mayor Peng Minsheng colluded with the gangster Sun Er, nicknamed "Sun Qitian", and did many evil things in the past few years. At this time, Sun Er was arrested and gave Peng Minsheng. Peng Minsheng.

Min Sheng has been dismissed from his post and imprisoned.

Everyone in the Yongchang Chamber of Commerce was shocked and overwhelmed by the news. Some people were heard laughing, "I have been waiting for a long time, and finally waited until today. But I have avenged the revenge of two years ago! Today I invite everyone to drink to celebrate Peng Minsheng and Sun

Second, go to jail."

Everyone looked and saw that it was one of his bosses who had been injured by Sun Er.

Zhou Yongchang didn't seem to hear this at all. He said to everyone: "Ang Sankor has been ill for many days. We should invite a doctor to go to Angkor's home for consultation."

The members of the Chamber of Commerce all said that they should, and someone was immediately ordered to leave. On the way, they saw Wu Youping and the officers under He Rui walking into Huaqing Building. The businessmen wanted to pretend to have a meal and follow them to have a look. When they arrived at the door of Huaqing Building, they saw Tong

There were guards guarding the entrance to the second floor, so we had to give up.

At this time, Wu Youping had already reached the second floor and saw He Rui sitting with three men in suits. When Wu Youping and Xu Chengfeng arrived, they stood up and introduced them to both parties.

"Brother Zhao, have you met Xu Chengfeng? This is Wu Youping, the new recruit. He graduated from Shanhaiguan Beiyang Railway Official School and is the assistant to the mayor of Siping. I wrote a letter saying that I would build a water conservancy project in Siping. It is him

Put it forward first."

Zhao Tianlin looked at Wu Youping and praised, "Young and promising."

He Rui introduced Zhao Tianlin and others to Wu Youping and Ta Kung Pao reporter Mo Yang. Lu Daoming, who also came with him, was a Tsinghua student studying in the United States. He graduated from the Civil Engineering Department of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, specializing in water conservancy technology.

Wu Youping was overjoyed when he realized that there were no big rivers outside the Guan Pass. There were no big rivers in his hometown of Siping that were even close to those outside the Guan Pass. There were only 6 small rivers. Each river had a short flow, small flow, narrow channel, shallow water level, and almost dried up in the dry season.

The population of Siping has increased rapidly in recent years, more than double what it was ten years ago. The problem of insufficient water resources has become more prominent.

Wu Youping heard He Rui ask: "How long will Brother Zhao stay in Siping?"

Before Zhao Tianlin could answer, Ta Kung Pao reporter Mo Yang interjected, "Director He, now everyone in Beijing and Tianjin knows that you went to the Kwantung Governor's Mansion to persuade Japan to withdraw its troops. May I ask Governor He, weren't you afraid at that time?"

He Rui smiled and said: "Why should you be afraid of serving the country?"

"Isn't it possible that Governor He is not worried that Japan will be rude and rude and unable to complete its mission?"

Wu Youping felt that the reporter was really rude and asked some inexplicable questions about something that had already been completed.

He Rui smiled and said: "Did Reporter Mo think I agreed to some conditions from Japan during the talks?"

Hearing this, not only Wu Youping, but also Xu Chengfeng, who participated in the entire meeting, raised his eyebrows and was about to speak.

He Rui waved his hand to stop Xu Chengfeng from getting angry. Mo Yang seemed not to notice the dissatisfaction of He Rui's subordinates, "Many people in Beijing and Tianjin call Governor He a diplomatic wizard. However, some people say that Governor He promised some benefits to the Japanese.

.As a reporter, I have the responsibility to report the facts. That’s why I took the liberty to ask Governor He.”

"Will this interview be published?" He Rui asked.

"If Governor He is willing to tell the truth, I will certainly publish it."

At this time, the food and wine had been served. He Rui invited everyone to start eating and chatted while he ate. Except for not mentioning personal relationships including Mitsui Yasuki, He Rui shared all his views on Sino-Japanese trade during the meeting.

The more Mo Yang listened, the more surprised he became, "Investor He, did Japan agree so easily?"

He Rui smiled and said: "Japan's arrogance is for profit, and Japan's reason is also for profit. If the interests of being reasonable are greater than the interests of arrogance, why does Japan continue to be arrogant?"

"But..." Mo Yang hesitated.

"Such a cooperative relationship will never last for a long time. When the European war ends, there will be no basis for cooperation. At that time, the interests of China and Japan will naturally change. Reporter Mo, please be sure to write this sentence."

Mo Yang couldn't help but sigh: "Please rest assured, Governor He. But isn't Governor He worried? The Japanese will fall out in advance after seeing this report in Ta Kung Pao."

"Reporters are not allowed to report. If anything happens, I, He, will take responsibility for it."

He Rui picked up the wine glass and said, "Everyone has come from afar, so here's a toast to you all."

After drinking, He Rui came to Lu Daoming with a wine glass and stretched out his hand to Lu Daoming.

Although Lu Daoming was a little surprised, he stood up and shook hands with He Rui. He Rui said sincerely: "Brother Lu, welcome to Siping. The water shortage in Siping is getting more and more serious. Not to mention the development of industry and agriculture, the urban draft is insufficient. Lu

It is a great blessing for the people of Siping that I can go to Siping, brother. Come, I will do it first as a token of respect."

After saying that, He Rui drank it all in one gulp. Then he ordered: "You Ping, come and toast Mr. Lu."

Wu Youping really wanted to ask Lu Daoming, a water conservancy expert, to stay. He quickly came to Lu Daoming and said sincerely: "Mr. Lu, I am a native of Siping. When Governor He arrives in Siping, the people of Siping can finally live a stable life."

Mr. Lu is here, and I think the people of Siping can finally live a good life. I wonder if Mr. Lu will stay and help Siping. As long as Mr. Lu is alive, we will do our best to help."

Lu Daoming did not answer, but looked at Zhao Tianlin. Then Zhao Tianlin asked: "Why do you only ask Brother Lu, but not me?"

Wu Youping was stunned, but He Rui asked seriously: "Brother Zhao is not a man who makes lies. But I really can't believe that I can have such good luck!"

Zhao Tianlin sighed slightly: "Brother He, the Tianjin French Concession authorities plan to occupy the old Xikai area. A group of gentry and businessmen in Tianjin initiated the establishment of the Tianjin Association for Maintaining State Rights and Land, and asked me to serve as the vice president. The French are unreasonable, and the government is afraid of the French.

, but instead suppressed the people of the country. I was extremely disappointed with the government. When I saw Brother He’s letter, I resigned from the principal and came to join Brother He.”

Hearing that people like Zhao Tianlin also came to join because of their expectations for He Rui, Wu Youping felt that it was right to follow He Rui, and felt his heart surge.

The young officers stood up one after another, and just as they were about to express their welcome, they saw He Rui asking seriously: "Brother Zhao, do you still remember what I said when we parted?"

"Of course I remember." Zhao Tianlin said with emotion.

"With the participation of Brother Zhao and others, the day of China's liberation will be a few days earlier." After saying that, he extended his hand to Zhao Tianlin.

Zhao Tianlin and He Rui shook hands tightly, saying nothing.

A few days later, Tianjin's "Ta Kung Pao" published a report by reporter Mo Yang. It not only introduced the content of He Rui's visit to the Kanto Governor's Mansion for negotiations, but also told how He Rui started to set up education and water conservancy projects in Siping. Even Zhao Tianlin and Lu Daoming studied abroad like this

All the talented people came to help.

Duan Qirui saw the newspaper, sighed slightly, and ordered: "Order someone to let the newspaper publish the news. The government commended Siping for its governance and allocated ten thousand to Dayang."

A few days later, Zhang Xiluan, who saw the newspaper, laughed and said: "He is indeed a hero. Adjutant Liu sent a message to Ta Kung Pao that Fengtian Zhen'an's office supports the people's livelihood and allocated 10,000 to Siping Dayang."

When "Ta Kung Pao" published the news about the funding from the national and provincial governments, the two sums of money were then sent to He Rui.

On the day he received the money, He Rui ordered the issuance of two new notices: "Notice on the Implementation of New Education Policies in Siping" and "Notice on the Siping Government's Implementation of the Hospital Confinement System."
