Everyone in the Security Bureau building was in high spirits.
The news that the director won tens of millions at the Ginza Club had spread like wildfire, and early this morning, everyone received a red envelope. Regardless of their position, everyone received a red envelope of 100 yuan.
At this time in the conference room, Lu Ming was holding a meeting of senior cadres of the confidentiality system.
On both sides of the conference table, male and female officers in brown and green uniforms sat upright, and their military caps were in a line on the table.
From a certain perspective, the Shengjing Security Bureau led the Nanping Security Bureau and the Wanzhou Security Bureau.
That is the Northern Territory’s confidentiality system, and Commissioner Zhang is the number one figure.
The internal institutions of Shengjing Security Bureau include the secretariat, inspection office, accounting office, Department 1 (Intelligence), Department 2 (Operations), Department 3 (Training and Logistics), Department 4 (Technical Support), and the Special Work Department.
As usual, the head of the Special Work Department did not attend today's meeting. It is a very mysterious department, and even the senior officials of the Security Bureau who attended the meeting have only heard of its name.
"It's going bankrupt!" Lu Ming shook his head.
Everyone smiled knowingly, and the atmosphere in the originally serious and depressing meeting room relaxed a little.
Lu Ming was inspired and gave 100 yuan to each person, not only to the personnel of Shengjing Security Bureau, but also to the Nanping Security Bureau and Wanzhou Security Bureau.
Lu Ming also suddenly realized that the Northern Territory's confidentiality system had become extremely large, with a total of more than 700,000 yuan having been paid out. In other words, the entire Northern Territory's spy system had a staff of more than 7,000 people, including more than 4,000 people in the Shengjing confidentiality system.
But it is also true that the special mission operations detachment, which is only under the secretariat and directly commanded by him, is a paramilitary unit with a regiment structure and nearly two thousand people.
Lu Ming raised his hand, and everyone's faces immediately became serious and they sat up straight.
"Director Qiu has just reported the latest progress of Operation Lotus. It's almost August. With the arrival of the last batch of immigrants, the number of immigrants in our concession area will exceed 150,000. Although Shengjing has a population of over one million, our Black Mountain immigrants account for a small proportion. However, we are outsiders and have poured in quickly. To get through the adjustment period, especially the priority of safety and stability, we need the joint efforts of all colleagues."
Everyone was writing down their thoughts in their notebooks.
Lu Ming looked at the director of the fourth department, Zhao Xiaochang, and said, "Xiaochang, I saw the audit report from the accounting office. You applied for another 200,000 yuan in special funds?"
Zhao Xiaochang wanted to say something, but Lu Ming waved his hand and said, "I know you always want to introduce the most advanced technology and equipment. This time, your department's graphics department wants to buy a photomechanical drawing machine from Donghai, right? Now the graphics department only uses translucent acetate boards, and the drawings drawn by the technicians are rather rough?"
Zhao Xiaochang nodded. He had always known that the director knew a little about everything, but might not be proficient in everything. But if you wanted to trick him, that was impossible.
Lu Ming thought for a while and said, "In fact, our military intelligence department has a mapping center with advanced equipment. Now think about it, our Security Bureau is getting bigger and bigger. If this continues, I'm afraid we will become competitors with the Military Intelligence Department..." Lu Ming remembered the struggles between the Military Control Commission, the Central Control Commission and other spy agencies in his previous life. It's good that he is the head of the security system now. If someone changes his mind in the future, it will be hard to guarantee that the two major intelligence systems will not engage in a fierce struggle.
No one dared to show any strange expression on their face, and only the director dared to say these words.
"I'll study it later and propose to General Lu that our Security Bureau and the Military Intelligence Department should be integrated and divided as needed." Lu Ming pondered, "If you have any good suggestions, feel free to report them to me in writing."
"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison.
…
In the morning, the head of the Montenegro secrecy system convened a meeting with a group of senior spy chiefs.
In the afternoon, Lu Ming was already in the business school classroom, listening to lectures and taking notes.
"Aming, can you lend me some money?" After class, Gao Xiaoli came to Lu Ming's desk.
"How much?" Lu Ming was a little surprised. He had ignored himself and Sun Jingjun for some time, and the so-called iron triangle had long since fallen apart.
A while ago, he even stubbornly refused my kindness and even refused the 50-yuan grocery voucher I gave him.
Now, you come to borrow money? That's really a big problem.
"Ten, do you have ten yuan?" Gao Xiaoli gritted his teeth, feeling a little embarrassed and even more afraid of being rejected. 10 yuan is not a small amount of money. His brother Dali only got 5 yuan a month before.
"Buying another gift for Zhao Peipei!" Sun Jingjun came over, lay on Lu Ming's desk, flipping through Lu Ming's textbooks, and said sarcastically.
"What's it to you!" Gao Xiaoli glared.
Lu Ming waved his hand: "Da Jun, say less. You guys always quarrel when you meet." He took out his wallet. Every time he went to school, Da Guo and Xiao Guo would prepare his clothes, including his wallet, which would also contain money, ranging from 10 cents to 100 yuan in bills.
He took out a 10-yuan bill and handed it to Gao Xiaoli.
"Thank you! I'll return it to you next month!" Gao Xiaoli took it and hurried back to his table.
Sun Jingjun looked at Lu Ming's bulging wallet and smiled bitterly. They were really from different worlds. The person who prepared the wallet for A Ming probably thought that he was very approachable nowadays, but who would carry so much money? Especially a student? There must be thousands of yuan in the wallet, which could buy a second-hand car.
"A Ming, you are not short of money, but you know much more than me. You lent money to Xiaoli..." Sun Jingjun was a little puzzled, and then his eyes lit up, "Do you want Xiaoli to fall harder, so that he will feel the pain, and then wake up?"
Lu Ming smiled, "You two are fate to me, but to be honest, I don't care too much about who you are. He asked for money, and I lent it to him because I thought the amount was not too excessive. What happens to him in the future is none of my business. As for who to save and who to punish, world peace depends on you!"
Sun Jingjun smiled bitterly, "Well, I can't understand the state you live in, and I don't want to understand it." He lowered his voice and asked curiously, "Last time at the donkey meat restaurant, you said you were from the Secret Service in the Black Mountain Concession. Did you get the ID from your family? Great, I heard that the Secret Service is a spy, right?"
Lu Ming smiled: "I heard that you are in love now? Are you short of money?"
Sun Jingjun blushed slightly, but sighed: "What kind of love is this? It's just unrequited love. How can she be interested in me?"
Lu Ming said: "I heard from Yuan Keli that she is studying at night school in the business school? She is a very ambitious and beautiful girl?"
"Well, she is the ace sparring partner of the San Sheng Billiard Club. I heard that there are a lot of young men chasing after her. How could they be interested in me?" Sun Jingjun shook his head, with a somewhat lonely expression on his face.
Three wins? Lu Ming had never heard of it. It was not among the top clubs.
But for students like Da Jun, this place is definitely out of reach due to its very high consumption level.
But honestly speaking, for the female sparring partners in these small clubs, saying they are being pursued by rich men is just a nice way of saying it, and most of the time, they are just their playthings.
Lu Ming looked at his watch and said, "Okay, I should leave too. Professor Li doesn't like to call the roll in the next lecture, right? I'm leaving!"
"Well, you are cool and cool." Sun Jingjun said with a smile: "Go, go, go! I feel uncomfortable when I see you listening to the class properly!"
Lu Ming picked up his schoolbag, shook his hand, and slipped out through the back door.
Looking at Lu Ming's back, Sun Jingjun sighed softly in his heart. In fact, after entering the business school and seeing a lot of the world, he would realize more and more how lucky it is to have a good friend like A Ming. At the very least, when he needs to find a good job after graduation, A Ming will definitely help him, which will be a small matter for him.
I hope that the wonderful friendship formed between him and me from two different worlds can last forever.
