mysterious forerunner

Chapter 245 Promotion again
The General Administration had not appointed a director at this time, but a five-person council (wei) (yuan) meeting (hui). This council has been retained since then, and the director-general also occupies a place in it.

The five elders of the council are the most powerful people in the Pan-Cultivation Era.

This time it was the second elder who led the team.

Unlike Mr. Guo, the five elders of the council are all powerful professionals.

Although he is named "Elder", he is actually not very old. The Second Elder is forty-six years old this year. In just three months after his mysterious arrival, he is already a fourth-level professional.

Of course, his family provided huge resources during his promotion.

The second elder’s name is Gong Ziping.

Zhang Qing has no impression of this name.

In fact, except for people who love history, other professionals basically have no impression of the first generation of "Five Elders".

The special nature of the Secret Security Bureau determines that the five elders must be professionals. And the professionals in the later stages become more powerful.

When Dr. Ma took a look, it seemed like there was nothing wrong with me. How about I continue to sleep?

The two of them had been busy until this morning. As soon as they fell asleep, they were pulled up again by Yanei.

Gong Ziping took the two fourth-level people away, leaving the other three behind. There will be a lot of related work in the future, and the three of them need to communicate with the general bureau and the original city branch.

Gong Ziping kept scratching his beard excitedly: "Okay, great, great, hehehe..."

Zhang Qingxiang nodded.

Gong Ziping thought he was hesitant, so he said with a smile: "You should think about it slowly, after all, your family and subordinates are all in Yuan City. But my invitation is always valid!"

The inspection team went straight to the Nancheng branch. Gong Ziping was very dignified. He was not even in the mood to be polite to Zhang Qingxiang, Guan Xuanbai, and He He. He said straightforwardly: "Take me to see the production line."

"Okay." Zhang Qingxiang made arrangements immediately.

Many of the subsequent systems of the Secret Security Bureau were established in the hands of the second generation of fifth elders.

Returning to the Nancheng branch, Gong Ziping immediately expressed his position: "I want to ask for credit from you!"

The five elders immediately said: "Go all out for production! In terms of raw materials and manpower, the General Administration will give full support."

Then he looked at Zhang Qingxiang with ardent eyes and asked, "Would Xiao Zhang be willing to work in the General Administration of the Capital?"

Zhang Qingxiang asked them to work overtime and make every effort to produce the standard source material. Dr. Ma did not go back and stayed to help.

Gong Ziping flew over early in the morning with his men. After visiting the institute, he took the 60 standard source objects and rushed back on the ten o'clock flight.

A Taoist priest used a secret technique to attract a stream of water out of thin air and pour it on his face. Then he wiped his face with the dirty sleeves of his Taoist robe, and he finally became more awake.

"Now that we are fully producing, how much production capacity can we guarantee?"

But he was much more calm. He made himself a cup of hand-brewed coffee, washed his face and brushed his teeth, and then followed him with the coffee.

Gong Ziping brought five people, two of whom were fourth-level, one named Mao Yuheng and the other named Mi Rui.

But I can give you some reassurance first. I guarantee you will be satisfied with the reward of the secret technique! "

Zhang Qingxiang took everyone to the research institute.

After Gong Ziping returned, five elders from the General Administration had a video call with Zhang Qingxiang that night.

"Then the speed can be slowed down, but we can't relax, as long as we ensure a monthly output of 1,500."

This man was one of the second generation council elders. He has been promoted to the realm of domination, and his evaluation is: one of the founders of the Secret Security Bureau.

A Taoist opened a storage void secret object, which contained standard source objects for three professions neatly placed, with a total of about one hundred and sixty.

"Everyone, please come with me. I will show you the manufacturing process of standard source materials."

Gong Ziping couldn't wait any longer: "Prepare twenty pieces for me of each of the standard source materials of the three professions. I will take them back immediately."

Zhang Qingxiang was startled. In his last life, he had the opportunity to go to the General Administration decades later. Did this opportunity come so soon in this life?

When Zhang Qingxiang saw Gong Ziping bringing Mi Rui over, he understood that these were Gong Ziping's cronies.

Zhang Qingxiang had already communicated with the people of Yihangdao: "If the supply of raw materials is not a problem and there are sufficient manpower, we can actually produce one hundred per day very quickly."

It was too early. A channel member from the institute and Dr. Ma were both sleeping in the office, still snoring.

Since mass production is possible, there must be a "production line".

After hesitating several times, I finally decided to share the difficulties with the Yihangdao people.

He Xu was surprised: "Uncle Gong is so anxious?"

"At least 30,000 of them must be produced in the early stage."

"Are you not in a hurry?" Gong Ziping said: "You also understand what this thing means. The other four elders are waiting for news from me. I simply take the thing back directly and let them see it with their own eyes before they can feel at ease! "

In the same vein.

When he passed by, the first channel people had almost finished showing and explaining.

For example, if Gong Ziping reaches the fourth level at his age, it is already his limit. Later, as the level of the professional becomes higher and higher, he can only give way to the talented.

Before leaving, Gong Ziping held Zhang Qingxiang's hand and assured: "The contribution of the standard source material is too great. We may need to discuss it for a while before we can decide what kind of rewards to give you.

Highlighting a vigorous and resolute approach.

On the contrary, "Mi Rui" Zhang Qingxiang was somewhat impressed.

Zhang Qingxiang immediately agreed: "No problem. But can you supply it to our original city branch first?"

This was a previously negotiated condition, so the five elders were not embarrassed: "I will give you two thousand from the original city in the early stage."

Then the five elders looked at each other, and Gong Ziping came forward and said: "Xiao Zhang, this standard source material manufacturing factory cannot always be located in our city. It needs to be promoted nationwide in the future..."

Of course Zhang Qingxiang understands this, but he cannot give it away in vain. He must get the benefits he deserves, and the crying child will have milk to eat.

"This is the hard work of our original city, and we have made tremendous efforts."

Gong Ziping smiled bitterly: "Don't worry, the General Administration will definitely compensate you."

Zhang Qingxiang still refused to let go of the rabbit: "Let's talk about it when the time comes."

This matter is not as simple as asking for benefits. Standard source materials are not like cultivation methods and secret techniques. The latter two are presented by Zhang Qingxiang, and the General Administration will directly distribute them to everyone to practice.

Even if someone has a bad idea, such as doing something disgusting like exchanging merit for exercises or secret techniques, Zhang Qingxiang can directly announce it on [Mysterious Forerunner].

But the standard source material is different.

If it is handed over and some people in the General Administration control the standard source material for profit... Zhang Qingxiang will be disgusted to death.

Therefore, this matter cannot be agreed easily. In addition to corresponding compensation, Zhang Qingxiang needs to retain a certain degree of control over the production of the entire standard source material.

This goes back to a previous question: Should I accept Gong Ziping's invitation to work in the General Administration?

I went to the General Administration to facilitate Zhang Qing to control the production of source materials.

But now Zhang Qingxiang is a little reluctant to leave the former city branch.

My parents are here, and there are also my old subordinates who I personally brought here.

And the little girl.

There is also the former Municipal Civilian Professionals Alliance.

On the contrary, it is the old colleagues at the General Administration who were familiar with me in the previous life. Because the timeline has not yet arrived, I don't know where they are now.

After this video conference ended, the documents from the General Administration came down.

The China Secret Security Bureau is divided into five overall bureaus based on regions.

Northwest, Southwest, Central Plains, Northeast, Southeast.

Mr. Guo serves as the general director of the Northwest Bureau, and Zhang Ruiqian serves as the deputy director.

But everyone knows that Mr. Guo is old and has limited energy. He is not a professional himself. Zhang Ruiqian will definitely be responsible for the main business in the future.

Zhang Qingxiang was promoted to the chief of the Lingxi Provincial Bureau and concurrently served as the former chief of the municipal bureau. This is a reward for Zhang Qingxiang's high-level secret skills. There is also a sense of releasing some rewards for standard source materials in advance.

The original arrangement for Zhang Qingxiang should be at most the director of the municipal bureau.

Zhang Qingxiang secretly asked Guan Xuanbai and He Xu for their opinions. After all, they were both from the capital and knew the situation there better.

Zhang Qingxiang asked the question during breakfast the next morning.

Zhang Qingxiang asked Deng Wanhong to make several exquisite breakfasts.

It looks great and is effective, but the taste is still hard to describe.

The three of them were sitting in a small single room in the cafeteria. Guan Xuanbai frowned: "You asked us for advice and just invited us to eat this? Are you really not bleeding at all?"

Zhang Qingxiang: "What's wrong with this? It will be of great help to everyone's cultivation! In our realm, we don't have to worry about those desires. I am doing this for your own good!"

Guan Xuanbai snorted angrily, He Xu pointed out three fingers and said: "Capital Master, if you want to have a family banquet, treat me to three meals, otherwise I won't even fart."

"Vulgar!" Guan Xuanbai criticized him: "He just likes to eat! I am different. I am much more elegant. Help me get three tickets for top pianist concerts."

Zhang Qing waved his hands continuously: "Okay, okay, give me some advice."

Zhang Qingxiang took a lot of wool from the two of them before, but this time he treated it as backwater.

Guan Xuanbai nodded with satisfaction: "Let me tell you, you have just been promoted, so it is not cost-effective to go to the General Administration at this time.

You should operate locally for a while first. Cultivate more tribes.

Ximen Ye and Feng Lintong are both outstanding, but the number of people is still too small. And now that you have researched the standard source material, you can quickly expand the number of agents under your command. "

Guan Xuanbai said enough here.

There is no doubt that the stronger Zhang Qingxiang's local team is, the more stable his position will be in the general administration in the future.

Zhang Qingxiang looked at He Xu again, who said lightly: "Now is not a good time."

"Mystery has arrived. We all know that a new era has arrived, but there are still many old forces who still cannot understand the situation, or they are unwilling to give up their interests."

"If I were you, I'd wait until the mystery washes away these old [things] before I go to the headquarters."

The two expressed their opinions from different angles, but there was no doubt that they were more on the same page.

Guan Xuanbai's opinion seems to be that he still has reservations about Zhang Qingxiang; but it is also possible that Guan Xuanbai himself didn't care about what He He said, so he didn't think about that aspect.

Zhang Qingxiang has certainly thought about their opinions.

But there is no doubt that others have said it more thoroughly.

Zhang Qingxiang then thought about it carefully: If I go to the General Administration at this time, is it possible to compete for the first director-general?

The answer is no.

If it were my father, Zhang Ruiqian, and with his own contributions, he would still have a 30% to 20% chance of going to the General Administration.

It is definitely impossible for him to be under twenty-five years old.

"Stay in the original city, but you can continue to maintain a good relationship with Elder Gong Ziping who extended an olive branch to me."

Zhang Qingxiang thought again: "We still have to find a way to find out what the character of Gong Ziping is.

If the three views are not consistent, there is no need to waste your efforts. "

……

After the appointment of the General Administration, the Nancheng Branch was full of joy.

Peng Shuangjie was a rebellious guy. He was jumping and laughing in the branch, jokingly encouraging Yanei: "Gun in hand, follow me! For Yanei's sake, go and seize the city bureau!"

"Please ask the old director to move to the Northwest Bureau as soon as possible, hahaha!"

"From now on, the territory of Yuan City will be ours!"

Zhang Qingxiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His father had been in the city bureau's office building in the north of the city for less than a month and had to change places again.

The newly renovated office building is about to be used by my son.

But Zhang Qingxiang did not want to rebel against his father. After all, Comrade Ye Shumin taught us: You must save some face for your father in front of outsiders.

Over at the Beicheng branch, Zhang Ruiqian really didn't want to leave...

It's so troublesome, and I have to go through it again.

He ran to discuss with Mr. Guo: Let's set the headquarters of the overall situation in the Beicheng branch?
"No way." Mr. Guo shook his head: "This time, the General Administration has specially allocated funds to build headquarters for the five major bureaus, and has made requirements, especially in terms of security."

"So, we have to choose a place first, preferably an open space, and build it from scratch."

Zhang Ruiqian said: "We also need office space before it is completed, right? In my opinion: Beicheng Branch is just right!"

Mr. Guo's eyes rolled: "I have to ask Xiao Zhang's opinion first. After all, your place was originally the headquarters of the Municipal Bureau. If Xiao Zhang wants to move there..."

Zhang Ruiqian was furious and cursed: "I knew it - we're kissing each other from another generation, so you're going to favor the brat!"

Mr. Guo laughed loudly: "Why are you still jealous of your own son?"

Zhang Ruiqian was right. Mr. Guo and he were really like father and son now, but he and Zhang Qing were like grandfather and grandson.

It is well known that a son cannot compete with a grandson.

But Zhang Qingxiang really didn't plan to go to Beicheng Branch.

The mysterious prison is still here at the Nancheng Branch, and Zhang Qingxiang wants to guard it.

A few days later, the research institute collected a thousand standard source materials, and the General Administration was already urging them non-stop. Zhang Qingxiang decided to "settlement" once and send them to the General Administration.

Gong Ziping's three confidants who stayed in the original city immediately contacted the center. The General Administration sent a team of six people in total, two fourth-level people and four third-level people, carrying a void-like secret object. After delivering it to the research institute, Escort the standard source material back to the capital.

But four hours later, Zhang Qingxiang suddenly received a call from Gong Ziping: "The escort team's plane has landed at Jingshi Airport, but they are not on the plane!"

Zhang Qingxiang was stunned: "Have you contacted them?"

"Everyone in the team can't be contacted - something happened!"

……

Zhang Qingxiang's eyebrows were tightly knitted together.

A thousand standard source materials can conservatively give birth to 300 professionals!
And who dares to touch anything belonging to the General Administration? Was it intercepted, or did the team defect?

Zhang Qingxiang immediately called Uncle Ba: "Help me contact the Public Security Bureau. I want to retrieve the airport surveillance video."

Zhang Qingxiang immediately organized his 20 agents to comb through the surveillance video of the airport in detail within four hours.

"The escort team did not enter the airport at all!"

Zhang Qingxiang was decisive: "Transfer the research institute to the airport again, and have the eyes of all roads along the way."

The whereabouts of the escort team were quickly found.

In the surveillance eyes, the team came out of the research institute, took an MPV, and drove to the airport according to the normal route.

There are three expressways from the city to the airport, and the team chose the one with the shortest time.

Zhang Qingxiang gritted his teeth. It was most likely that he was intercepted, rather than the team defecting with the standard source material.

If they are defecting, they should choose the farthest highway. That road would pass through large tracts of undeveloped suburban wasteland.

After the car got on the highway, it drove normally for twenty kilometers and then disappeared.

There was about seven kilometers between the two cameras before and after the team disappeared.

Zhang Qingxiang stood up quickly: "Tian Mingkun, Xiong Zhenlin, bring someone with you and follow me!"

"The people who dare to touch our Secret Security Bureau are so brave!" Zhang Qingxiang cursed, but there was still a doubt in his heart that he didn't say: How did the person who secretly did this know about the standard source material?
They made a very accurate move and must have obtained accurate information.
