Chapter 370 Telegrams and Missions

Nan Wang was born as a scholar, writing a report was easy and enjoyable for him.

In fact, if these ancient literati are placed in later generations, there is no doubt that all of them are academic masters.In that boring and backward teaching environment, he can understand the obscure and difficult ancient Chinese without punctuation marks by heart, and then write the article by himself; this kind of person will definitely be admitted to 985 in future generations.

Among the students of the Intelligence Bureau at the same time, Nan Wang was more partial to subjects, and most of his skill points were added to "arts", which was also a necessary condition for him to study chemistry.He has this kind of advantage that most of his colleagues do not have, because it takes a long time for others to take basic cultural courses, and 007 is not so easy to be.

Holding a thick carbon steel pen in his hand, Nanwang wrote the draft of the report in a hurry.

Due to the lack of key parts: rubber/plastic ink suction tubes, capillary pens that seem to be simpler in craftsmanship cannot be manufactured in the kiln area.As for those early products that required pistons to absorb ink, I didn't bother to make them here.

On the contrary, carbon pens, which became popular only in the 21st century, are in line with the current technological conditions: the kiln area can produce qualified ink, sponge refills and pen holders.

As for the most demanding pen, this stuff can't be made after all the lifetimes.You must know that the ballpoint pens of later generations are the stuff that even the capital and ministers have a headache. The Internet celebrity Mrs. Dong also seized the opportunity to catch a wave of enthusiasm. After cars, mobile phones, and chips, she fell in love with the country again and vowed to create production pens. The core equipment, in the end it was nothing
The diameter of a hair is 100 microns, and the machining error of a ballpoint pen tip cannot exceed 3 microns.Even though the requirements for carbon nibs are low, there is no dedicated special steel for Zouzhong, and the machining accuracy of the entire system cannot reach the micron level, so this thing really belongs to the "Lifetime" series and can only be imported.

Fortunately, there is still Emperor Cao, who imported tens of thousands of nibs in a box, which is enough for everyone to use right now.

In the future, after the machining technology of the kiln area is upgraded, the volume of imported materials can be further reduced: only the balls of the pen tip are imported.In that case, a box is hundreds of thousands.

Of course, the ultimate solution is to plant rubber trees to produce capillary pens.As for the ball on the tip of the pen, this can only be left to future generations.

Nan Wang, who is familiar with the internal review rules of the Intelligence Agency, divided the report into two parts.

The first part is a supplement to his own past personal relationship.It included information on the intimacy of Nanwang, Master Huang Shaozhou, Fang Tangjing, and other members of the Huang family, money exchanges, and so on.

These supplements were written to facilitate internal review within the organization.He didn't write that much detail in his files before, but now that Fang Tangjing's incident happened, Nan Wang had to submit these contents to the "organization" if he wanted to restore contact.

He is very clear about the operating rules of the Intelligence Bureau: the content of the report will be sent to Hangzhou, and the Hangzhou Station will organize the review, and finally submit the results to the General Administration.

So Nan Wang wrote the report in as much detail as possible: cover-ups and omissions would make the review difficult, and the feedback would be detrimental to the reviewee.

The second part of the report is his plan of "recruiting leading parties".

This leading party plan is now commonplace. The 17th century was in the early stages of capitalist development, the West was still struggling in the quagmire of the Thirty Years War and mercantilism, and the East was still playing the old trick of the world. Neither the East nor the West had established Modern concept of state and nation.

Therefore, the cross-travelers in charge of intelligence later discovered that it was essentially some infiltration, and the behavior of cultivating the leading party would not be condemned by the society and vigilant by the indigenous people in this era.

Except for some scholar-bureaucrats who talk about "the world's favor from the emperor" for nothing, the rest of the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that there is no advanced concept of "defending the family and the country" at all, and it is very convenient to recruit. The benefits will do.

So Nan Wang seized the opportunity today, and wrote down the suggestion of wooing the Huang family in the report: The leading party is also divided into first-come-first-served, and in 49 anyway, the post-event ratings will be one notch lower.

This plan of wooing the Leading Party is both public and private for Nanwang.

Yu Gong, recruiting a family of indigenous gentry in order to organize the wooing in the Jiangnan area, this is a good thing no matter how you look at it.

In private, when he was down and out, the first place he worked was Huangfu.Mr. Huang is a sophisticated person, treat him with sincerity, and Fang Tangjing is his best friend, so at this time, Nan Wang must help Huang Fu no matter what.

Nan Wang is one of the most elite group of indigenous figures in the empire, and he is qualified to watch "internal reference films".So Nan Wang knew that sooner or later, the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River would be cleaned by the cannon that fired copper shells. Only the leading party would be an exception.

So now he urgently needs to start guiding the Huangfu, and the first step in guiding is to submit a report for approval from the superior.Because only in this way, he can justifiably mobilize some resources and pass some information to Master Huang by the way.

As Nanwang worked hard to write, it was getting dark before he knew it.He got up and closed the curtains, lit the kerosene lamp on the desk, and looked down at Nan Wang to review the draft he had written, then picked up a piece of letter paper with the letterhead of the Red Intelligence Bureau, and copied it neatly.

After everything was done, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Nan Wang folded up the written report, got up and went to the cafeteria first.Naturally, the cafeteria of the Intelligence Agency was open 24 hours a day. After someone had a quick lunch, he turned around and went to the headquarters building.

It is said that it is a building, but it is actually three floors, but there are two more podiums.After checking the documents at the entrance of the building, and entering the first floor to register and report, Nan Wang sat down on a row of chairs in the lobby and waited obediently.

Since he asked to see his superiors on a temporary basis, he didn't know if he could succeed, so he could only wait for news in the waiting area on the first floor.

I was lucky today. After waiting for nearly 40 minutes, Nan Wang was notified that the chief on duty wanted to see him.

According to the internal regulations of the Intelligence Agency, at any time there will be a member of the crossing staff sitting in the headquarters to take on the duty of combat readiness.As far as Nan Wang knows, Tang Qi, the director of the Operations Department and the deputy director of his immediate boss, was on a business trip not long ago, so if he wants to see him today, he must be one of the two, Ma Yue, the deputy director, and Dai Yun, the chief director. .

Sure enough, looking south at the duty post on the third floor, he was told that Dai Yun, chief of the bureau, was waiting for him.

The old employees who joined the company when it first opened have this advantage: leaders, big and small, know each other well, and they are familiar with each other, and they can give face to small things.

To be honest, in terms of office politics, Nan Wang is really "Dai Yun's man".Because it was Dai Yun who was optimistic about him back then and personally recruited him into the Intelligence Bureau.It's just that all the rules here are new, and the so-called office politics are immature and not so obvious.

Passing by the telecommunications room that echoed the sound of ticking telegrams, and walking all the way to the end of the corridor, after getting a nod from the beautiful secretary who was typing, Nan Wang walked into the office of the Chief Chief, and then he was greeted by the smiling Dai Yun He sat down on the reception sofa beside him.

After respectfully explaining his intentions, Nan Wang handed over the written report with both hands.After Dai Yun took the report, he didn't rush to read it. He was concerned about Nan Wang's personal situation first, then he asked the secretary to pour tea, and then he looked down at the report.

It took about fifteen minutes for Dai Yun to read Nan Wang's report carefully.After reading it, Dai Yun took a sip of tea first, then thought about it and said to Nan Wang, "Since it's a chance encounter, don't miss this opportunity. Well, in principle, I agree with you to have further contact with this Fang Tangjing."

Nan Wang was delighted, and he quickly nodded in agreement.However, at this moment, Dai Yun stretched out his hand to stop Nan Wang's next words, and showed a reminiscing expression on his face.

Soon, Dai Yun got up from the sofa, sat back behind his sandalwood executive desk, took out his key, opened a drawer, and took out a telegram manuscript from it.

After glancing at the manuscript, Dai Yun thought about it again, and then he took out his mobile phone and called out: "Old Qiao, I am Dai Yun. Well, let me ask you something, when will the big ship in the shipyard be launched? What, this Yue started outfitting? When did the sea trial last? Oh, okay, I see, bye~."

After making the call, Dai Yun tapped the table with his fingers for a while, took out the pen and stroked the manuscript a few times, then stretched out his hand to call Nan Wang over, and handed him the telegram manuscript.

Nan Wang took a look at the manuscript and found that it was a telegram sent directly from Shanghai to the headquarters. The content on it was the rescue plan of Xiong Dao, the deputy station chief of Shanghai Station.Among them, Dai Yun underlined the sentence "request to send a powerful person who is familiar with the gentry's feelings to listen to me."

"It seems that this errand is destined for you. Well, I am familiar with gentry, and I am also a local in Hangzhou. Today I ran into an old relationship there again, and I plan to expand."

Dai Yun paused here, and after giving Nan Wang a little time to react, he continued: "You read the telegram, Shanghai is in a stalemate for the time being, and the next step is manpower support. How about it? Did you go back to your hometown to do it?" Confidence in the mission?"

Can Nan Wang say no at this time?What's more, he is no longer a frail scholar, so what if he returns home?Nan Wang, who was extremely confident in himself, replied immediately: "I am confident, and I would like to ask the chief to give an order!"

"Yeah." Seeing Nanwang's confident eyes, Dai Yun nodded with satisfaction: "It will take two months at the earliest, and three months at the slowest. We will launch it here. You have to start making preparations from today. I am now You are authorized to read all the information that will be sent from Shanghai in the future. In addition, regarding that Fang Tangjing, you might as well step up the pace of contact, and resources can be diverted there.”

"I will live up to Director Dai's entrustment!" Nan Wang had a determined face at this moment.
