Lost and Spy

Chapter 1268 Out of Control

Everyone is staring at the Bureau of Industry and Commerce to see what kind of solution they should come up with.

Forget about the hooligans, but now even No. 76 is involved.

In the name of helping the public concession to maintain order, they blatantly opened fire in the downtown area, making the already chaotic concession even more panicked.

It looks like the new year is coming.

This is the most important festival for Chinese people every year. However, in this extraordinary period, shops are worried that they will be implicated, so they close their doors to wait and see what happens.

And as an excellent commander, he will not only see the enemies in front of him, he will notice in advance those enemies that may exist and may evolve into enemies.

Meng Shaoyuan is such a person.

He expected that No. 76 would intervene in the concession, so he made arrangements in advance and used the power of the patrols to deal with them.

And now, he is also wary of an important force in the public concession:
British garrison in the International Settlement!

This is a very powerful force.

The attitude of Brigadier General Gildo French will be crucial!

It took a lot of effort for Zhao Yun to see him.

Moreover, the brigadier general's attitude reveals a bit of arrogance. He is unwilling to lift his head when facing the Chinese in front of him:
"Go ahead, you have 30 seconds."

Zhao Yun didn't even speak for more than ten seconds:
"Please don't meddle in anything in the International Settlement."

"What did you say?" Frankie raised his head: "Are you joking with me, or are you threatening me?"

Zhao Yun didn't say anything.

He brought a total of two men.

One of them came up with a suitcase, opened it, and dumped all the contents on the table.

money!
It's all stacks of money.

Brigadier General French was shocked.

There is nothing more visually impactful and shocking than a pile of cash.

The 30 second period has passed.

But Brigadier General French had long forgotten, and his tone was a little difficult: "Sir, I have heard about what happened in the concession, and my soldiers have not intervened for the time being, but if the Ministry of Industry and Bureau asks us for assistance, I think I would have a hard time saying no."

Zhao Yun smiled.

His second subordinate walked up, opened the second suitcase, and dumped it all on the table.

Still stacks of money!

"Crazy, you're crazy, you're crazy."

Brigadier General Franky murmured.

"The Bureau of the Ministry of Industry cannot order the army." Zhao Yun said lightly: "You can completely refuse their request. The money is enough for you to choose to retire. You have two choices, accept it, or drive us out."

Brigadier General French made a decision in a second. He stood up and shook hands with Zhao Yun enthusiastically: "I like this country, and I like you too!"

See, you can always make lots and lots of friends with money.

……

"Sir, Brigadier General French rejected our request. He said that he would never hesitate to protect the Ministry of Industry, but interfering with the internal affairs of the concession with the army will cause huge public opinion pressure. His duty is to ensure that the concession is not attacked by hostile forces!"

damn it.

Klass cursed angrily.

The situation in the concession is getting out of control. If the necessary measures are not taken, even more terrible things may happen.

According to reliable news, the military command has gradually lost patience, and may resort to strikes and strikes to put stronger pressure on the Ministry of Industry and Bureau.

"Also, the board of directors will hold a board hearing tomorrow."

"What?" Klaas was shocked: "Why don't I know about this?"

"Sir, this was proposed jointly by Mr. Lennett and Mr. Maximilian, and was proposed by the overwhelming majority of the board of directors. According to the regulations, this does not require your consent."

The assistant's words were already very euphemistic.

In fact, the prepared statement is "no-confidence surrender hearing", which is completely aimed at the general director.

Although there is such a regulation, it has never been used in the history of the Public Concession Bureau of Industry and Commerce.

Klaas is "fortunate" to be No.1.

His face began to turn pale.

The fuck.

Did they all give in?
What they were facing was nothing but a group of Chinese people.

Klaas sat there for a long time: "Help me answer the call from the military commander."

"It still refuses to communicate with us in any form."

"Moyes, please Mr. Moyes... No, I'm going to his office!"

……

Moyes is sorting things out in his office.

As soon as Klass came in, he said in a relaxed tone: "Hey, Mr. President, I think we should talk."

"Mr. President." Moyes stopped what he was doing: "Look, I'm packing my things here."

"what happened?"

"I think it's time for me to resign."

"Resign?" Klaas was surprised: "Why?"

"The situation is getting out of control." Moyes said solemnly: "I can't help it. I don't think I am suitable to continue to sit in this position. This is beyond my ability. Ah, this is my letter of resignation."

"I refuse!" Klaas said without thinking, "I need you, and the Ministry of Industry also needs you to continue to stay in this position."

Moyes sighed: "There's nothing I can do, there's nothing I can do."

"Look, Moyes, I know you have a way." Klass maintained great patience: "I asked for a direct dialogue with the military commander, but they refuse to answer my call now, I think you can do it Bar?"

Moyes was silent for a while: "Are you still using 'demand'? Let me explain to you about Meng Shaoyuan. He has a strong sense of self-esteem, which mainly means that he will not give an inch when it comes to national interests. At other times, no matter how nasty things you say to him, he will always smile, but this is the only exception.

He has been the first to send you a signal of peace, but you have rejected him.Also, I am sorry that you chose to be his enemy instead of his friend.Now, do you see the situation spiraling out of control and panic?There is no chance, according to my understanding of him, he has closed the door to peace talks with you, and there is only the last way. "

"what?"

"Either he goes down, or you go down."

"I am the representative of the British Empire!" Klass finally roared unbearably: "This is the public concession, he is just a Chinese, he has no right to decide anything here, only me, I can decide!"

Moyes stopped talking.

It's just that when he looked at Klass, he felt a little sympathetic.

Poor guy.

He is about to become the shortest-lived general manager in the history of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.

He didn't do anything wrong, the only thing he did wrong was choosing the wrong opponent.

Although Shanghai has fallen, the International Concession is still a veritable isolated island!
