Lu Zhiqiang looked at Mu Tian's gloomy face, lowered his head and pondered.
After a while, he raised his head and said, "Mr. Mu, I know what to do. Find Ning Shuya for me, and I will let her live. The others, except the eldest to the fifth, who have children, will be let go. Love whoever you want."
.It’s not easy for anyone to live these days. If you want to leave, just leave. I won’t stop you, and I won’t worry about it.”
Mu Tian smiled, patted him on the back, and asked the waiter to serve the food, "Go and find that foreign patrol officer."
Mu Tian took out two silver coins from his sleeve and stuffed them over.
The waiter secretly took the silver dollar, bowed and left.
After a while, the waiter brought all kinds of dishes one by one, "I don't know what the detective's taste is, so I just ordered a little bit of whatever I wanted. I hope Mr. Mu likes it." Lu Zhiqiang reached out and scratched the dishes on the table.
One circle, respectfully.
"I'll pay for today's meal. I've also prepared the best dishes here for you. It's hard to get them elsewhere. You have to book a month in advance. You also have to pay first." Mu Tian said, calling the last person to pass the dishes.
Waiter, "Tell the chef to bring the dish I ordered as well." Mu Tian ordered.
As soon as the waiter went down, Gudlevsky came in, standing at attention and saluting as usual, "Sir Inspector, what are your orders?"
Mu Tian did not answer, but slowly picked up the four corners of the thin silk, tied it with a loop, picked it up, weighed it, and threw it to Gudlevsky.
Gudlevsky was unprepared, caught it in a wrong step, and immediately reset himself. He hugged the silk bag to his chest with one hand and saluted again with the other.
Mu Tian waved his hand, asking him to put down his saluting hand, "How was your meal?"
"That's good. Go back and tell your section chief that I'll invite him out for a drink another day." Mu Tian said lightly.
"Yes, Mr. Inspector. Excuse me, can I go?"
Mu Tian waved his hand.
Gudlevsky saluted, turned back, and walked away in unison.
Mu Tian wanted this momentum. The reason why he did not name the section chiefs was to create a sense of ambiguity. With so many section chiefs in the patrol room, anyone could do it. But Gudlevsky always called him "Inspector"
, it is precisely this effect that blurs the boundary between the folk attributes and the official attributes of his detective.
Looking at Lu Zhiqiang's expression as he stared at Gudlevsky's walking back, Mu Tian knew that the effect was good. Jiang Xinyi is a very interesting guy and knows what he wants. I really need to invite him out for a good drink one day. I don't know if he is good at this.
One mouthful. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be shocked. Could it be that this guy has traveled through time just like me? When he first joined the police force and was taught the history of the force, he had never heard of anyone who died in the line of duty. Could it be that he wore it in a dream?
Have you come over? Is there such a way to travel? Alas, there are more and more brainless noobs nowadays, and it is unknown to create infinite ways to travel.
Anyway, just drink with him and that's it. Maybe you can get something out of him.
"What should we drink?" Lu Zhiqiang looked at Mu Tian staring at him, as if waiting for his expression, and then asked about the wine.
"It doesn't matter, as long as it's the national drink." Mu Tian said nonchalantly.
"Okay, for your temper, just use sorghum to burn it."
……………………
Qi Weimin knocked on the door with a food box and came in. Lin Xiao raised his eyes and looked at it, then buried his head in the "Oriental Morning News" in his hand.
Qi Weimin put the food box on the table and opened it.
Lin Xiao twitched her nose twice and looked up at Qi Weimin with a look of disbelief on her face.
Qi Weimin brought out a plate of fish and placed it on the table.
Lin Xiao looked around.
"Stinky mandarin fish?"
Lin Xiao's voice was very surprised.
"Yes, Mayor Lin, there is Wanxiang Pavilion not far from here. It is an Anhui cuisine restaurant. It is not big. The boss is the cook." Qi Weimin explained with a smile, "I have eaten it for you, please forgive me. The taste.
Although it has been localized, the original taste can still be tasted. Please give it a try, mayor. Your logistics personnel will not arrive until tomorrow. The military has been mobilized frequently in the past two days, and the traffic is a bit tense."
"Do you also know about Anhui cuisine?" Lin Xiao's subtext was obvious: Check me out!
"Oh, secretary." Qi Weimin replied obligingly.
"Well, there is a future." Lin Xiao said, staring at the smelly mandarin fish on the table.
Qi Weimin brought out another plate of braised pork, braised pork and tofu festival and two side dishes, set out the bowls and chopsticks, "Mayor, please use it slowly."
Lin Xiao raised his head and looked at Qi Weimin in surprise.
Qi Weimin bowed, picked up the food box next to him and left.
"Bring a pair of bowls and chopsticks, let's get together."
"this……"
"Forget this and that, I can't finish it by myself, it's a waste."
Qi Weimin opened the food box and took out a pair of bowls and chopsticks, but he held them in his hands and did not sit down.
"Come on, come on. You know that a secretary and a superior are always one and the same. I was lucky enough to be Mr. Wang's secretary for half a year. Do you know what he likes to eat the most? Big-headed shrimps, especially shrimp heads. Sit down quickly.
, sit down." Lin Xiao seemed to be chatting, and put the mandarin fish with bad breath in his mouth to taste, "You are right, the original taste can still be eaten, but the localization is a bit serious."
"I'll go to the market another day and look around to see if I can find something authentic." Qi Weimin put down his bowl and chopsticks and sat down, the kind of person who sat upright.
"Relax and eat. Do you know what's in the shrimp head? The dregs and essence coexist, and they are close together, in such a small space, but Mr. Wang can eat them carefully. Master." Lin Xiao was eating.
While admiring, his chopsticks no longer reached for the smelly mandarin fish, but instead ate the authentic braised pork and tofu stew, and his eyes turned to the "Oriental Morning News" placed next to him.
"I see that you have been reading this newspaper since morning. Are you studying something? Do you think my brother's appearance in the newspaper at this time has an ulterior motive?"
"I have thought about it. But it seems that the death of their chief writer was a sudden accident, but all the pages were removed to commemorate him. Why only the second page of news was left?"
"I think what's on the second page is more like an advertisement than news. The Industrial and Commercial Intelligence said that the news of the opening of Hengxiang Department Store was released a few months ago, but it has not been opened yet. There has been another commotion recently.
It’s terrible, maybe Mr. Qiao bought the space in advance and had to publish it.”
"It makes sense. How is the selection of the interview list in the industrial and commercial circles? Is this Qiao Shikuan in it?" Lin Xiao asked, with a sudden hint of worry in his tone.
"He should be there. He is quite popular in the Chinese business circle. He should be your first person to interview. Now that your brother has this cooperative relationship with him, it may be easier to talk to him."
"Not necessarily. But we only have a few million in start-up expenses, enough to pay a few months' salary? We not only need to save," Lin Xiao used chopsticks to make a circle on the dishes, "but more importantly, we need to increase revenue."
Qi Weimin wisely took a piece of tofu from the braised pork and put it in his bowl without eating it.
"We are still an important source of tax revenue for Mr. Wang. What should we do? In Shanghai, we need to start with the Chinese bosses in the concession and let them come to Chinatown to invest and build factories. What do we have, land and people?"
"I understand why Mr. Wang sent you to be the mayor." Qi Weimin said sincerely.
"Hey, it's not that easy to implement. What were you doing before you were sent to me?" Lin Xiao suddenly asked.
Qi Weimin was stunned. Doesn't this person look at the resumes of his subordinates?
"I just graduated and returned to China. I'm at Kyoto Imperial University in Japan." Qi Weimin replied tentatively.
"What to study?"
"My resume includes finance, international trade and international politics."
"Sorry, I don't look at resumes. Ninety percent of them are fake. However, someone did something practical this time and sent you here. You can be considered a counterpart. I want to meet you in Chinatown.
Do you have any suggestions for demarcating a special area at the junction of evil and soil?"
"My subordinate has never thought about it."
"Then start thinking now and give me a complete opinion in a week. Also, you have a special mission by my side, right?" Lin Xiao suddenly changed the topic seriously. He wanted to see if Qi Weimin was a professional.
, or is he just a political bastard?
Qi Weimin was listening in rapt attention, but when he was suddenly asked, he couldn't turn around, so he subconsciously said: "Report to the commander to protect your safety."
"Of course. It also includes political correctness, right?" Lin Xiao lost no time in asking.
"Sir, you don't say secret words in front of people, that's right." Qi Weimin was probably completely moved by Lin Xiao, and he still said without thinking.
"Okay, now you know what a chief and a secretary are." Lin Xiao smiled with satisfaction and pointed to the newspaper next to him, "Take 30,000 yuan and go to the newspaper office to have a look. Although our funds are tight, we still need to do the necessary public relations.
The boss of this newspaper is not an ordinary person. There is also the dead chief writer, they are all powerful people. Look at the elegiac couplet on it, it is very interesting."
