Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Deputy Minister Xiang was in a dilemma. He now understood why Lu Jianbang, his old comrade, was so vague about this matter. He originally thought that Lu Jianbang had become irritable due to his promotion and was still using official language with his old comrade. Now he realized that this matter involved his nephew.

He and Lu Jianbang crawled out of the same trench, and were comrades in life and death. Lu Jianbang's nephew was also his nephew, so he couldn't bring himself to ask for mercy.

Chu Tiancheng was seen clearly by those around him. He was an old and cunning man. He knew that his son and nephew had hit a wall. At this time, he really couldn't open his mouth to beg for mercy.

Dabao extended his hand to ask Deputy Minister Xiang to sit down, and walked to the cabinet as usual, opened it, took out two boxes of cigarettes, and placed them on the coffee table. Lu Jianbang just smiled bitterly, not even daring to say anything.

This little bastard was clearly trying to save face in front of outsiders, otherwise everything in the cabinet would be gone.

Dabao offered a cigarette to Deputy Minister Xiang and Chu Tiancheng, then sat on the sofa with his hands crossed and said with a smile,

"Uncle Xiang, I know why you and Director Chu came here today. I heard that you and my uncle are comrades who crawled out of the same trench. Our lives are connected.

Uncle Xiang is not afraid of you laughing at him. If it were you, others would not be able to get this face from me. Don't worry, I will definitely give you face.

Do you think this is a good idea? Chu Yingjun, there are a few militiamen left, you can take them away in a while, but you have to leave that guy surnamed Hu with me. To be honest, Chu Yingjun didn't really want to rob me at the time. It was that guy surnamed Hu who kept inciting and instigating him. He just listened to him completely.

This guy named Hu is so bad. It was his idea from the beginning to the end, so I have to deal with him.

If Uncle Xiang hadn't interceded, I would have taken the person back to our bureau. You know it's not that troublesome there. We still have to send the person to the procuratorate and the court.

As long as the evidence is solid, I will deal with it. My original plan was to have Chu Yingjun and Hu Tongguo executed, and the others sentenced to more than 10 years in prison..."

Chu Tiancheng burst into tears when he heard this. He was really scared for the whole day and half a night. Now he was very lucky to have found his old leader. If it was someone else, they might not give him this face.

Deputy Minister Xiang patted Dabao's hand with a bitter face. This was a big favor. But when he thought about it, he was proud enough to get such a favor from the little devil who was well-known in this top circle.

"No more unnecessary words, nephew. From now on, if you need your uncle Xiang, just ask. No matter whether it's a big thing or a small matter, your uncle will help you."

Dabao laughed out loud, and Lu Jianbang laughed beside him. He didn't laugh because his nephew gave him face. He only realized today that the person who was most suitable to survive in the upper class was Dabao.

If I were to do this favor myself, Xiang Weiguo and Chu Tiancheng would definitely not be so grateful. It seems that Dabao's reputation as a vicious person also has a purpose. Being able to rescue people from his hands is something to brag about.

Although Xiang Weiguo is only the fourth-ranked deputy minister in the Ministry of Industry, his circle of comrades is spread all over the South, which is an incredible network resource.

Most of Lu Jianbang's comrades were also in the south. He was transferred from the Huaye Army and was in the same field army as Xiang Weiguo. However, he had no connections in the north.

But Lu Jianbang knew that the reason the bosses chose him to come to Beijing to govern was because he had no factions in the north and could be more fair in his work without having to please everyone.

But unexpectedly, the old man and Lu Liye have already made up for this shortcoming.

"That's it, then. National Day is coming soon, and my uncle has to attend a closed meeting at the ministry. You definitely can't be idle. After the holiday, I'll go to the mountains to hunt some wild animals and bring them to my uncle. You and my uncle can have a good drink then."

Deputy Minister Xiang laughed heartily. This child was knowledgeable and polite. He said to Lu Jianbang,

"Old Lu, I still have some cigarettes and alcohol. My child needs these to make friends. I'll have someone send them home later. This is my gift to my child. Please don't steal it."

Lu Jianbang smiled bitterly.

"You really think highly of me, how dare I keep secrets from you? It's because he's been away on business lately. Otherwise, I wouldn't even have cigarettes to smoke. His aunt is like his real mother. If anyone says anything against this kid, your sister-in-law will pull out a gun and fight him!"

When Bai Xiuying was mentioned, even Deputy Minister Xiang had a headache, and he also smiled bitterly.

"Only my sister-in-law could do this! Back then, the four of us, Old Wu, Old Liu, and I were drinking, and after getting drunk, my sister-in-law threw us all out in the cold for the night. I'll remember this for the rest of my life!"

Lu Jianbang laughed out loud. If others had a fierce wife, it would be a shame and a loss of face. But if he had a tigress, it would be a matter of honor for the whole army.

Dabao and Lu Jianbang accompanied Vice Minister Xiang and his men downstairs. As they shook hands in the corridor, Chu Tiancheng smiled widely and took out a few envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Dabao.

Dabao was stunned, and Chu Tiancheng immediately said,

"Comrade Xiao Qin, my son-in-law has caused you trouble. Don't misunderstand me. This is not money. This envelope contains some cloth coupons, enough for my family to make clothes. You can take the cloth coupons to our factory to get the cloth.

Inside these three envelopes are three job introduction letters. I know you don't need them, but they are just a small token of my appreciation."

Dabao knew that no matter what era it was, asking for help would never come back empty-handed. The resolution of this matter mainly depended on the face of Deputy Minister Xiang. But if you, Chu Tiancheng, didn't show any interest, even Deputy Minister Xiang wouldn't agree.

Vice Minister Xiang laughed heartily.

"Take it, take it, nephew. We men don't need this, but this is Director Chu's gift. Since you've been so kind, he can't just accept it for nothing, right?"

Dabao did not refuse. He had been wronged in this matter, and it was his due that he should get some compensation. He nodded readily.

"Okay, I'll take it."

Everyone was happy now. The only unlucky one was Hutongguo. Dabao was also given a break and was only sentenced to three years in prison. He was sent to the northwest to eat sand.

This person should not be soft-hearted. Dabao thought he had let Hutongguo go, but unexpectedly, Hutongguo held a grudge against him. Of course, Dabao did not take him seriously, as he was just a small figure.

But Dabao forgot that history is created by small people, and it was this small person who later became the main force to overthrow Dabao. This is a story for later!

Dabao drove away in the jeep. Deputy Minister Xiang accompanied Chu Tiancheng and waited for Lu Jianbang to go to the Public Security Bureau to pick up the person. Chu Tiancheng secretly asked Deputy Minister Xiang,

"Weiguo, I see you have a different attitude towards this Comrade Xiao Qin? What exactly is his Central Investigation Bureau doing?"

Vice Minister Xiang said seriously,

"Old squad leader, you only need to know one thing: if Qin Dabao wants to deal with me, he doesn't even need to report to the higher-ups; he can just arrest me directly! What's that ancient saying? That's right! Execute first, report later!"

Chu Tiancheng was shocked. Doesn’t this mean that his power is all-powerful?
