Sword: Li Yunlong advised me to be civilized

At the Qilu official residence in Nanjing, a young lieutenant passed through layers of inspection and walked briskly towards the communications department. His face was very serious, but he was secretly delighted in his heart.

Hehe! Another easy night shift. The CEO wasn't in Nanjing, so I urgently flew to Kunmin yesterday afternoon...

Come to think of it! No one expected that the Red Army would actually occupy Luding Bridge. Did they fly there?

When the cheerful lieutenant walked into the office, he immediately noticed something was wrong. The atmosphere was terribly depressing. Something was wrong! The CEO wasn't here, so why was everyone acting like they were facing a major threat?

Soon, a friend from the same department gave the answer.

"Oh! Just calm down! Director Yan got angry this afternoon, smashed the phone, and overturned the table..."

The lieutenant was in complete disbelief.

"What? Director Yan is famous for his good temper. Everyone in the Bai Mansion calls him a modest gentleman. Who has offended Director Yan?"

"How would I know? Hmm! It should be the acting director. He's been standing obediently at Director Yan's door for two hours!"

Hearing this, the lieutenant was completely dumbfounded.

"What? Acting Director? Is Director Yan so powerful? Even the Jinyiwei Commander is so afraid of him? Eh? That's not right! Aren't they on good terms? Aren't they both the General Manager's confidants?"

The other side curled his lips in disdain.

"How did you manage to get to Qilu, you're so innocent? There are differences among confidants. In the absence of the CEO, Director Yan can temporarily take over the CEO's duties in an emergency..."

...

--------

The door of the office on the second floor was closed. Director Yan was like an angry beast, pointing at the acting director's nose and cursing him repeatedly.

"Dai Yu Nong, you son of a bitch, I've never been scolded like that before. Damn it, I warned you a long time ago not to get too close to those shady people, but you didn't listen at all.

"It's all right now! It's finally happening! The most hateful thing is you, you bastard. I treated you as a brother, but you used me like a gun..."

The acting director stood to one side, his head lowered, his face covered in sweat. He wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start. He felt regretful and resentful in his heart, but he couldn't just say nothing at this time.

"Brother Zhu Rong, I'm innocent! How dare I use you as a weapon? I have no choice! Shanghai is the Far East intelligence center, and we can't do without the assistance of the Qing'an Company. Besides, I really didn't know those people in Quanzhou were from the Qing'an Company!"

It would be fine if this wasn't mentioned, but once it was mentioned, Director Yan got even angrier.

"Shut up, you bastard! You didn't take good care of your dog. Xu Shengze gave you enough face to let you handle it yourself, but you came to me without investigating the matter. I took all this scolding for nothing!"

After he finished speaking, the acting director's expression was uglier than crying. Only then did he see the truth behind this. Director Yan was right.

The reason why the phone call was so tough was because the Qingkuang Company had offended the Lin family. Xu Shengze's intention was both a warning and a reminder, asking him to deal with it on his own and not to make a big fuss.

Originally, the matter was simple. All it took was for the state's spies to figure out who the visitor was, and the matter would be easily resolved with just one phone call...

But the acting director didn't think so much...

Finally, Director Yan called. In Xu Shengze's opinion, he was asking for credit on the surface, but what he actually meant was that he was unwilling to give in on behalf of the fishermen and farmers, and specially invited a big shot to put pressure on them. Isn't this a demonstration and provocation?

With Xu Shengze's temper, it was already very considerate of him not to chase him to Nanjing and curse at him!

What made the acting director most uncomfortable was that now the two of them seemed to have completely offended Xu Shengze. Thinking of the power of this county magistrate, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

After much thought, instead of passively taking the beating, it is better to take the initiative and join forces with Director Yan to completely bring down Xu Shengze.

"Brother Zhu Rong, I actually have information here. Last night, Xu Shengze checked into the Heping Hotel. After getting drunk, he ran into Miss Lin and then... dragged her back to his room..."

Director Yan on the other side was startled when he heard this. He immediately stood up and checked around to make sure there were no ears on the wall. Then he pulled the acting director aside and asked in a low voice.

"Fishermen, is the news reliable?"

Seeing the other party being so cautious, the acting director couldn't help but feel happy. It seemed that Director Yan also had the intention to kill, so he immediately nodded in affirmation.

"No doubt it was provided by Jin Feng, who was placed next to Xu Shengze. The information was a little delayed, after all, Jin Feng had to avoid Xu Zhenhua..."

Speaking of Jin Feng, the acting director couldn't help but feel proud. This was a brilliant move. Xu Shengze probably never dreamed that Jin Feng would be even more loyal to Nanjing...

Director Yan, on the other hand, fell into deep thought. No wonder Xu Shengze suddenly came to the Lin family's aid! The Shanghai Lin family was no small family. Forced action must have an explanation.

Wait a minute, Director Yan suddenly thought of something and slapped his thigh.

Holy crap! Yesterday, Xu Shengze said he was going to the Concession to buy some Western medicine. It seems he's been plotting against Miss Lin...trying to use this opportunity to establish connections with the Lin family and potentially connect with the Chinese...

That’s right, this is the fastest way to achieve your goal. Although it may not be appropriate, it saves time and effort.

That's why he wanted to show some favor to the Lin family. His insults today were also intentional, in order to intimidate the Lin family after showing some favor...

Oh my! Xu Shengze is no ordinary person! His quick reaction is truly astonishing!

No wonder the General Manager values him so highly, no wonder he dotes on the County Magistrate so much. Even before the General Manager left yesterday, he specifically instructed him to fully cooperate with Sheng Ze's actions in Shanghai and to get out of this as soon as possible...

Others may not know, but Director Yan is very clear. The General Manager hopes Xu Shengze will quickly infiltrate that side. After all, that side has put a lot of pressure on the General Manager by using the Yanjing negotiations...

Director Yan hadn't understood at first, wondering if this young man had such great abilities. Now he understood: the CEO's vision was truly unparalleled...

After figuring it out, Director Yan couldn't help but feel annoyed. After being scolded that afternoon, the correct thing to do should have been to call and apologize immediately, and be as humble as possible...

Unfortunately, I was blinded by anger at that time and did not understand Shengze's intention!

Fortunately, it’s not too late!

"Fisherman, you're a man! There will always be times when you can't control your crotch, you..."

Director Yan hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly saw the stunned expression on Director Dai's face. He immediately understood that this bastard really couldn't understand the situation clearly, so he immediately warned him...

"I'm telling you, Dai Yu Nong, put away those evil thoughts of yours immediately. Don't provoke Sheng Ze, or no one can save you... Also, you have to keep this matter about Sheng Ze to yourself. Free love, that's free love, remember?"

...

Not long after, the acting director walked out of Qielu in a daze, and sat in the car still in shock. Fortunately, Brother Yan reminded him in time, otherwise his head would have been moved...

Oh my god! I knew Xu Shengze was the governor's favorite, but I never expected he'd be so favored. He actually dared to curse at the governor? The key is that the governor was actually very happy. Damn it! Even the prince of Jingguo wouldn't get this kind of treatment, right?

If it weren't for the age discrepancy, I'd really suspect Xu Shengze was an illegitimate child. No, the age barely matched. Thinking of this, the acting director broke out in a cold sweat again. He really wanted to send someone to investigate, but he didn't dare...

Back at the Fuxing Society office, the acting director immediately picked up the phone.

"Hey! Connect me to Shanghai... What? Boss Sheng isn't here? Huh? Missing?"

--------

At the same time, key departments such as the Shanghai Municipal Government and the Security Bureau received telephone instructions from Qielu with similar content.

"We will support the Lin family to the end in all matters concerning them. We will suppress anyone who opposes the Lin family..."

---------

In the north of Shanghai, the Security Bureau's brewery base...

Several agents carried a human-shaped sack into the cellar. Soon, all agents withdrew and began to conduct perimeter security...
