This red-walled building was once designated by the Eight-Power Allied Forces as the Allied Commander's Office and the office location during the Republic of China. It is still the place that represents the highest power in China. To ordinary people, this place is mysterious, heavy, and equally proud.
The long red wall is six meters high and solemn. It is very rich in history and full of majesty. Xiao Zheng knew that only senior officials at the provincial or ministerial level or above, or military bosses, could obtain a pass. Occasionally invited members are granted passes, but those are temporary. Disposable.
This time, Minister Jin asked Xiao Zheng to go to his office so solemnly. It must not be a one-time thing, right
Really, Brother Azheng must greet all the women in his family. Isn't it too deceptive
Xiao Zheng is not happy to pursue power. He is always working hard on how to make Xinao bigger and stronger. Although he does not deny that politics and business are often impossible to completely separate. But Minister Jin's call still made Xiao Zheng a little excited.
But what really made him excited was that he was compared with Lin Laoyao.
"What's there to do in that place?"
When Xiao Zheng got through Lu Dashan's phone call, the latter's words were quite sour: "I just took three of them."
"It's amazing." Xiao Zheng said against his will. "I knew you were very powerful, Uncle Lu."
"Is that necessary?" Lu Dashan said, then lowered his tone. "Azheng, seize this opportunity. You are one step closer to Old Demon Lin."
After a pause, Lu Dashan said with great emotion: "Damn it. I wish I had your skills. Dodging bullets? You are the only one who can do this kind of thing. Your Aunt Qin said it, she designated it one-on-one It’s too much to bear. You’re actually fighting three people. You’re simply anti-human.”
Xiao Zheng said politely that he was lucky. Then he hung up the phone happily.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Lin Huayin came to her side and helped Xiao Zheng straighten his tie.
"Minister Jin probably has follow-up arrangements." Xiao Zheng smiled.
"Behave better." Lin Huayin nodded and said. "This is also an opportunity."
"I know." Xiao Zheng nodded.
Accompanied by Yu Fei, Xiao Zheng came to Minister Jin's office. Because Yu Fei also contributed to this matter. So Minister Kim didn’t kick him out. Instead, he handed the pass to Xiao Zheng in front of him.
"Come with me tonight. Mr. Hu wants to see you." Minister Jin said calmly.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little fluttering in his heart.
Mr. Hu
That's a big leader.
I heard they are even more hard-line. He was behind all the negotiations with the Tokyo government. It can be said that both Minister Jin and Minister Gong stationed in the United States are from the same faction as Mr. Hu.
Normally, it might be difficult for Xiao Zheng to get an audience with Mr. Hu in the short term. But this time there was a reason, but it was also reasonable.
And this pass was probably given the green light by Mr. Hu.
Mr. Hu prepared a family dinner.
The home is not too big, just a three-story villa. But the security system is astoundingly tight. Even the guards who came in and out, Xiao Zheng could tell that they were quite strong. Not to mention Mr. Hu’s personal bodyguards.
Mr. Hu is about sixty-eight years old. I have been struggling in officialdom for most of my life. He is of medium height and looks very kind. But those calm eyes contained great power.
"Young people are scary." Mr. Hu took the initiative to reach out his arm and patted Xiao Zheng's shoulder gently.
"You are ridiculous." Xiao Zheng bent down slightly and held Mr. Hu's palm with both hands. There was a look of respect on his face.
"That's right. Young people should be more down-to-earth. As the old saying goes, don't be arrogant when you win but don't be discouraged when you lose. It still makes sense." Mr. Hu waved his hand and motioned for his old subordinates, Minister Jin and Xiao Zheng, to sit down.
The dishes are home-cooked meals prepared by the chef at home. The wine is good wine. Mr. Hu took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Xiao Zheng: "Do you want to smoke?"
"Quit." Xiao Zheng said with a smile. He behaved fairly neither humble nor arrogant.
"Are there any veterans who don't smoke?" Mr. Hu smiled and did not take his cigarette back.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he said with some embarrassment: "I'm preparing for pregnancy recently. I'm really sorry."
Minister Jin felt quite helpless when he saw this. This guy is ready for pregnancy, right? You dare to refute even the old leader’s face, how courageous are you
Before Minister Jin could relax, a childish voice came from the living room.
"Hey. Are you really shameless? How many times has my grandpa passed cigarettes to others?"
A young man in his early twenties came over holding a basketball. I was sweating profusely, I guess I just finished exercising. The look he looked at Xiao Zheng was very blatant and had the temperament of a playboy.
Mr. Hu said nothing, but looked at Xiao Zheng with a smile.
It seemed that he was still waiting for Xiao Zheng to take the cigarette.
At this time, even Minister Kim couldn't sit still. He poked Xiao Zheng's arm and said, "That's interesting."
"It's boring."
Xiao Zheng shook his head, stood up and said: "Thank you, Mr. Hu, for your hospitality. I have some personal matters. I will take a step forward."
"Want to leave!?"
The young man smashed the basketball on the ground, stretched out his hand to block Xiao Zheng's way, gritted his teeth and said: "Even if my grandpa hands you a bomb, you still have to smoke it!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Minister Jin was restless, but Xiao Zheng's face gradually darkened.
"I'll count to three seconds." Xiao stared straight at the young man and pursed his lips. "Step aside."
"It's no use counting thirty seconds!" The young man rolled up his sleeves and cursed. "Who the hell spoiled you like this?"
After saying that, he was about to beat Xiao Zheng.
However, several guards not far away stood leisurely in place. It seems that he has no intention of helping young people.
"Azheng. If you could knock my grandson down, there would be no need to smoke at all." Mr. Hu put the cigarette into his mouth and slowly lit it.
Without saying anything, Xiao Zheng slapped the young man on the shoulder. Then, he exerted force suddenly. I heard the young man wailing and yelling: "You bastard! If you don't let go, believe it or not, I will kill you with one shot!"
Mr. Hu took a puff of cigarette and said calmly: "Guard, give him a gun."
One of the guards didn't take it too seriously and actually handed the young man a gun.
The young man held the gun, but he was a little timid. He looked embarrassed and said: "Grandpa, aren't you afraid that I will really break this kid?"
"First of all, I don't think you have this ability." Mr. Hu pursed his lips and said. "Secondly, if you dare to shoot, I will punish you. Not to mention your parents, even if your grandparents come to plead for mercy, it won't work."
"Bull!" Hu Jianjun gave a thumbs up and said with a smile. "Grandpa, I'm cowardly. Please let this kid let go quickly. My shoulder blades are almost crushed by him."
Mr. Hu didn't say anything, but he heard Xiao Zheng say calmly: "Apologise."
"Apologise?" Hu Jianjun was amused. "Even you want me to ouch, brother, let go. Do you really want to squeeze me to death?"
"Apologise." Xiao Zheng said with narrowed eyes. There was a hint of amusement on the corner of his lips.
"Brother, I'm convinced. I apologize. I'm the grandson." Hu Jianjun gave in faster than he fell out.
"Nonsense!" Mr. Hu snorted.
Did you recognize your grandson casually
Now that you recognize him, Mr. Hu is no longer the same generation as Xiao Zheng
Hu Jianjun chuckled and said, "Grandpa, where did you find such a weirdo to come to your house?"
He was thick-skinned and did not get angry with Xiao Zheng. He rubbed his shoulders and sat down in the seat in front of Xiao Zheng. He grabbed a chicken leg and took two bites of it and said, "You couldn't have been specially brought here to treat me, right?"
