In the evening, the logistics detachment stationed in the second town of Huai'an County specially sent people to the place where Yuan Su was staying and invited Yuan Su to a restaurant for a banquet. Yuan Su made some preparations and took the carriage provided by the county government with his guard.
A large number of soldiers arrived at the restaurant following the soldiers who came to greet him.
As expected of Chen Lushan's wealth, he directly booked the entire second floor of the restaurant, and also spent a lot of thought on decorating it, making the second floor look not too empty, but also grand and lively.
As soon as Chen Lushan heard that Yuan Su had arrived, he came to the stairs on the second floor early to wait to greet him. After meeting Yuan Su, he repeatedly flattered and nodded, almost treating Yuan Su as the supreme official.
Faced with such kindness, even Yuan Su himself felt a little overwhelmed, and he felt more and more that Chen Lushan was indeed a person who understood current affairs.
After sitting down, Chen Lushan personally served Yuan Su tea and poured water. At first, the two of them didn't have much to talk about. They simply said some polite words and talked about the current situation in Jiangsu Province, and then the banquet started immediately.
There were not many company guests at the table. Apart from Chen Lushan himself, there were some officers with the highest rank in the logistics detachment. However, Chen Lushan himself was just a battalion officer, let alone the others.
After the food and drinks were served and a round of wine was consumed, Yuan Su felt that there was no need to procrastinate anymore, so he began to talk about business in a sideways manner. Since Chen Lushan was so polite, of course he couldn't directly say that he wanted to drive people away. On the contrary, he was very cordial.
expressed that they were willing to recommend them to work in Zhenjiang or Hong Kong City.
Upon hearing this, Chen Lushan's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face couldn't help showing pride and excitement.
Seeing the virtue of the other party, Yuan Su suddenly became happy. After all, Chen Lushan still had no foundation, and his eyes straightened when he saw any sweetness.
"Oh my, Governor Yuan is so... haha... so kind. How can I be so humble in my humble position? How dare I bother Governor Yuan to recommend me? Haha, it's really... how to put it, oh my god, I'm so lucky.
You are so lucky." Chen Lushan said a bunch of words that didn't match his words for a while, but the meaning was already clear.
"Alas, Brother Chen, you are too modest. To be honest, although Brother Chen you did not go to the front line to kill the enemy, it is often said that the army goes ahead before using food and grass. If Brother Chen did not sit in Huai'an to coordinate operations, how could Governor Feng be able to move south smoothly?
What about advancement? Brother Chen’s performance in Huai’an during this period is enough to have a better use.” Yuan Su said with a smile, and after finishing speaking, he picked up the wine glass and touched it with Chen Lushan, and then drank it.
All.
"It's Inspector Yuan Dadu who is very aware of everything and understands those of us who are working in the rear. Oops, I will really have to rely on Governor Yuan Dadu's support in the future." Chen Lushan quickly raised his wine glass with both hands respectfully, and after saying this
After talking, he hurriedly drank the wine glass.
"It's easy to talk. In this way, the entire Jiangsu Province is undergoing a makeover, especially the local county governments. Most of them will be replaced. If Brother Chen feels that you do not want to continue serving in the army, I am willing to come forward to guarantee you a county magistrate. Yancheng,
The city of Hong Kong is your choice, Brother Chen. Of course, if Brother Chen you still want to make a difference in the army, this is not difficult to do. It is not difficult for you to be the commander of the local security regiment." Yuan Su deliberately put on a show.
The official accent makes it seem as easy as picking it up.
"I, Chen Lushan, will never forget the support given by Governor Yuan. To be honest, I have been worried in the past few days. It is precisely because of the incident involving my brother Chen Shuliang that Governor Feng has become more and more concerned about our Chen family. This time the Second Town is setting off.
Before, I had heard whispers that Governor Feng was going to dismiss me. Alas, after going south, I was still worried all the way, for fear that something might go wrong and upset Governor Feng." Chen Lushan said with a sigh.
"Oh? Chen Shuliang, is Governor Feng's son-in-law riding a dragon?" Yuan Su had heard about it earlier, so he asked further.
"What a quick son-in-law who is riding a dragon, my brother is really a fool. He even knows how to know the situation clearly. It's really abominable. It's just that he was bewitched by those revolutionaries. Why did he know that it was Governor Feng who led the army south?
He still doesn’t know how to avoid suspicion. But now, he just slapped his ass and went abroad to escape, leaving us brothers and sisters who are no longer human beings inside and outside."
"This matter is indeed strange, and it is really difficult for you, Brother Chen. However, Lu Yao knows that Ma Li has a long history of seeing people's hearts. I believe that Governor Feng will know your intentions sooner or later, Brother Chen, and he will definitely not blame you unjustly." Yuan Su said consolingly.
.
"I don't dare to hope for this humble position. Now I only think that my future is ruined and I can no longer hold my head high in front of Governor Feng. In the future, at most I will just do some chores in the logistics camp, some meritorious service, some promotion, alas,
I'm afraid I won't have a chance. Fortunately, I met Governor Yuan today, and he is really a great benefactor who made me rich despite his humble position." Chen Lushan said gratefully.
"I'm serious, I'm serious. To be honest, on the one hand, I really feel that I am in love with you, Brother Chen. On the other hand, I also know that Brother Chen has this ability. People are appointed on their merits." Yuan Su said politely.
"I am really grateful that Governor Yuan thinks so highly of me. From now on, whenever there is any use for me, I will do my best and be a pioneer. I will definitely follow Governor Yuan's lead." Chen Lushan said with sincerity and fear on his face.
He was full of sincerity. If he was still in Qianqing, he would have knelt down immediately to thank him.
Of course, Yuan Su never thought that Chen Lushan would work hard for him. For such a small person, he only offered some verbal benefits, and the main purpose was to get rid of this person. As for whether he can be used for himself in the future, that depends on the details.
Anyway, as long as this matter doesn't make everyone unhappy, then everyone will naturally be happy.
Afterwards, everyone pushed the glasses and set the lamps, and it was not until after ten o'clock that they were all drunk.
Early the next morning, before Yuan Su fully woke up, the serviceman outside the door came in again to inform that Chen Lushan had come to visit in person and sent many gifts. Not only that, Chen Lushan heard that Yuan Su was still there.
After resting, he immediately showed no intention of further disturbing him, put down the gifts and left.
After hearing this, Yuan Su really felt a little funny. He slowly got up and washed up, and then went downstairs to take a look at the gifts sent by Chen Lushan. In addition to some precious ginseng, bird's nest, and deer antlers, they were also neatly arranged.
Five carefully cut gold bars were arranged in a row, and he weighed them in his hand. Each bar weighed at least four taels.
He couldn't help but sigh with emotion. A small dispatching officer of a logistics detachment could actually give a full kilogram of gold bars as a gift. This shows how skillful this person was during his tenure. As the saying goes, you can see the leopard in the pipe, and the whole Second Town
It’s really self-evident what the situation is like up and down.
But since Chen Lushan is so determined, it seems that he sincerely hopes to find a backer so that he can prosper.
Immediately, Yuan Su returned to his study, and after careful consideration, he drafted a message. He decided to recommend Chen Lushan as the commander-in-chief of the Yancheng Security Corps, Zhao Shanhe as the commander-in-chief of the Huai'an police force, and Guo Wenyuan as the Huaibei police officer.
Prepare for the Commander-in-Chief. This message was made in two copies. One was sent to Bei Jing and was sent in advance. The other was sent to Nanjing and was deliberately delayed for a day or two.
Of course, this recommendation message was not just a casual sentence. In order to be convincing and avoid telling the truth, he deliberately added some spice to it. For example, he boasted about what the three of them had done during their trip south.
He has made many achievements, guarding the Jinpu Line Railway, serving as logistics and transportation escort, coordinating and dispatching various military supplies, etc.
Anyway, methods like this are already commonplace in this age group.
Yuan Su even made up his mind that no matter whether the superiors approved it or not, he would stay in the place and see how much the superiors would care about such trivial matters.
