The next day, at four o'clock in the afternoon, in the compound of the Bureau of General Affairs.
Su Tianyu and Su Tianbei were sitting on the sofa in the office, eating fruit and chatting.
Because he was going to meet with Tan Mingchao and the others in the evening to discuss joining the garrison, Su Tianyu first said a few words to his second brother.
“Dangdangdang…”
The clock on the wall chimed four times.
Su Tianyu looked at his watch and said, "The team I found for you will be here soon."
Su Tianbei grabbed a handful of melon seeds and said with a smile: "You are so fast, you have built a team for me in just a few days?"
Su Tianyu turned his head and glanced at him: "You don't know anything, you must be led by someone you know. I have arranged a regimental staff officer, a deputy regimental commander, and two battalion commanders for you. They are all elites, transferred from Xin Xiaodong, and each of them is a young officer trained by him personally. You don't know that Xin Xiaodong and I were so busy for these four people, it was more difficult than asking him for money."
Su Tianbei chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll make arrangements for him later."
Su Tianyu gave another instruction: "We are all family, so it's easy for us to talk. The main thing is the garrison. Although they may not give you soldiers or power, we need to set up a good front first. At least it should look like a real thing and not make a fool of ourselves."
Su Tianbei nodded: "I know."
Su Tianyu patted his shoulder and earnestly exhorted him: "Second brother, you work hard, spend more money later, and quickly turn this group around and that's it."
Su Tianbei's eyes sparkled: "If you say that, I won't be sleepy anymore. I'm willing to take advantage of Commander Tan!"
The two of them smiled at each other in collusion and continued to eat the fruit.
At around five o'clock, there was a knock on the door and four strong and energetic soldiers walked in.
All four of them had clean-shaven hair, wore neat military uniforms, and carried packed square luggage on their backs.
As soon as they entered the room, the four of them immediately lined up like javelins and saluted Su Tianyu together.
One of the soldiers, who was the shortest but had the highest rank, spoke up: "Report! Lu Boyan, the Chief of Staff of the 112th Regiment of the First Army of the Renmin Army, along with the Deputy Regiment Commander Yan Xiao, and the Battalion Commanders Zhao Xi and Wang Jun, report to you!"
Su Tianyu returned the greeting first and shook hands with them enthusiastically: "Thank you for your hard work. This is my second brother, and your future leader, Su Tianbei..."
"Meet the captain!"
The four of them shouted in unison.
Su Tianbei also stepped forward at this time and said with a polite smile: "We will be one of our own from now on. I have never been a soldier, so I need you to take care of me. It just so happens that I have prepared some gifts for everyone, a watch and a latest model mobile phone for everyone, just to show my appreciation!"
As he spoke, he picked up four gift ribbons on the table beside him and gave them to them.
Seeing these gifts, the four officers were a little confused. They didn't expect that this Captain Su would be so honest and give gifts as soon as they met.
Lu Boyan was the leader among them. He said embarrassedly, "Oh, please don't do this, leader. You're making our relationship vulgar!"
Although he said this, his hands had already taken the bag.
Su Tianbei smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Lu Boyan looked at the gift and said shyly, "Look, this makes me feel so embarrassed."
The look in his eyes was exactly the same as when Xin Xiaodong was trying to rob the vault; very real and not contrived at all.
Seeing this, Su Tianyu joked: "We are all old Liao Zhai, so don't play with local foxes. Okay, just take it if I give it to you."
Lu Boyan scratched his head and said, "Since the Chief of General Staff has said so, I will obey your orders. Why don't you thank Su Tuan!"
"Thank you, Su Tuan!"
The four of them then put the gifts into their bags, and everyone sat down and chatted for a few more minutes, getting to know each other better.
…
At six o'clock in the evening, Su Tianyu took Su Tianbei, Hou Guoyu, and the four officers to a private restaurant near Longkou.
Under the guidance of the manager, they soon came to a private room. The waiter pushed open the door and found that it was already full of people.
Tan Mingchao, Wawa, An Qiqi, and Zhou Tonghui are all here.
Su Tianyu led them in with a smile. After the greetings, he briefly introduced the four officers to them: "These are all young talents of the Renmin Army, the chief of staff Lu Boyan, the deputy commander Yan Xiao..."
Everyone stood up and shook hands with the four of them politely.
Su Tianyu introduced the people in the room again: "This is An Qiqi, the Minister of Military Intelligence of the An Clan, and this is..."
Finally, he introduced Tan Mingchao to the four people: "This is Mr. Tan, the son of Commander Tan."
"Hello, Commander Tan!"
"Well, we are all family from now on, no need to be so polite, everyone, take a seat."
Tan Mingchao nodded, and everyone took their seats and the dishes began to be served in the private room.
The four officers were a little reserved. They sat there straight and didn't say much except greeting each other.
Although Su Tianbei had poor military skills, he had strong communication skills. He pulled four people together and took the initiative to chat with them.
Su Tianyu and Tan Mingchao sat together, talking in low voices.
Tan Mingchao picked up the wine glass, turned his head and smiled at Su Tianyu: "I heard you are going to the Chinese District?"
Su Tianyu jokingly said: "Is there an undercover agent around me? Do you know everything I do?"
Tan Mingchao clinked glasses with Su Tianyu and said with a smile, "This is not a secret. When are you going to go?"
Su Tianyu took a sip of wine and said, "It is possible that I will be under the leadership of your Tan faction now. It all depends on when Commander Tan nods his head."
Tan Mingchao said speechlessly, "Can you please stop talking nonsense? Mayor Li may not be able to control you now, right?"
Su Tianyu quickly laughed: "No, don't say that!"
The two chatted for a while, and Su Tianyu paused and said seriously: "If I go to the Chinese District, what suggestions does the garrison have?"
Tan Mingchao did not hide anything and replied frankly: "Since things have come to this point, we will definitely support it. You can go, but the garrison will definitely not come into contact with the Chinese district."
Su Tianyu nodded slowly and said nothing more. He just clinked glasses with Tan Mingchao again.
After finishing the drink, Tan Mingchao turned to the guard next to him and said, "Xiao Liu, give me the stuff."
The guard took out a stack of documents wrapped in a plastic bag from his bag and handed it over: "Commander Su, please."
Su Tianyu opened it and saw that inside was the team leader's work book, employment procedures, and a letter of appointment.
The letter of appointment clearly stated: "Comrade Su Tianbei is appointed as the head of the 135th Regiment of the Second Army of the Garrison, effective immediately."
Su Tianyu was a little surprised: "So fast?"
As he spoke, he handed the document, the letter of authorization, to Su Tianbei who was standing beside him. The latter stretched out his hands and took it.
Tan Mingchao looked at Su Tianbei and said gently, "Tianbei, I used to lead the 135th Regiment. I've already greeted them. Go over and take up your post immediately."
Su Tianbei picked up the wine glass: "Thank you Ming Chao, I must toast you a glass! I'll drink it, you can do whatever you want!"
After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp!
Tan Mingchao also followed suit and drank up the wine in his glass. The matter was settled, and the atmosphere between the two sides was very good.
After explaining Su Tianbei's affairs, Tan Mingchao turned to Su Tianyu and said, "You'll have to wait a little longer for your position. As you know, due to the First Army's relationship, there will be some internal adjustments, which may be major changes. I estimate that it will be almost ready when you return from the Chinese District."
Su Tianyu smiled and nodded slowly: "No hurry, try to make a good position for me, such as second to none or above ten thousand people."
"Then you can change jobs. Stand in the administration office and call Lao Li a bastard, and I'll give you my seat!"
"Forget it, we are destined to be just a bridge!"
"Hahaha!"
The two smiled at each other and said nothing more.
After finishing the business, the two continued to drink. During this process, Tan Mingchao raised his head from time to time, secretly glanced in the direction of the baby, and occasionally glanced at An Qiqi next to him, with a slightly hesitant expression.
Su Tianyu felt something was wrong, so he joked: "What's wrong with you? I see your expression is a bit like the male protagonist in the movie."
Tan Mingchao didn't mind. After thinking for a while, he took out a square and exquisite little box from his pocket.
At the same time, he took two deep breaths and said to Su Tianyu: "Brother, I'm going to do something big today!"
