Best Landlord

City A had the biggest snowfall since the beginning of winter, and the whole world was shrouded in pure whiteness. At this moment, a pitch-black cargo ship sailed into the deep-water pier of City A. In the extremely pure world, dyed A little dirty color, exposing everything that is dark in the world.

"Ma Ting is really back? He really has the guts to come back!"

Zhang Xiaolong put his legs on the desk and held a piece of shredded squid in his mouth. Recently, he smoked more and more heavily, and was collectively resisted by the women around him. Zhang Xiaolong had to use shredded squid instead.

It was Xiao Li from the office who came to report. He lowered his head and pretended not to see anything. He didn't dare to condemn the county magistrate's indecent behavior of putting his feet on the table in the office.

Xiao Li lowered his head and said, "Boss Ma is waiting outside, hoping to see you."

Ren Qiong didn't come today, and left mysteriously in the morning, and she didn't know where she went. Xiao Li temporarily took over the work of the secretary of the county magistrate.

Zhang Xiaolong looked at the time, it was 32:[-], which was the time for dinner in many units.

"It's lunch break now, let him wait." Zhang Xiaolong said unhurriedly, leaning his head back to find a comfortable position, ready to take a nap.

Xiao Li said cautiously: "County magistrate, it's not good to let Taiwanese merchants just wait like this."

Xiao Li thinks that city A is not rich, nor is the county rich. It is rare for a Taiwanese businessman to come, at least to meet him. If he is willing to invest in the county, it will be a lot of money.

Obviously Xiao Li couldn't understand Zhang Xiaolong's attitude.

Xiao Li is for work, and Zhang Xiaolong wants to cool off Ma Tingzhen. Xiao Li can't understand the intention of the leader. If he can understand, he will become a leader.

Zhang Xiaolong said in a deep voice: "Don't you know who is a big official?"

"Yes, yes." Xiao Li nodded again and again, sweat was already breaking out.

"Go out and let Ma Tingzhen wait. I'll talk about it when I'm free this afternoon."

Zhang Xiaolong waved his hand and asked Xiao Li to back out. He didn't ask Ma Tingzhen to come in the afternoon, or let Ma Tingzhen sit in the reception room for a few hours.

Check your mood in the afternoon, see if you're not sure yet.

Xiao Li withdrew to wipe off his sweat, and shook his head helplessly. He really didn't understand what the county magistrate was thinking. Doing so would offend the Taiwanese customers. .

In the reception room of the county government, Ma Tingzhen was waiting anxiously. Like an ant on a hot pot, he walked up and down in the reception room, constantly wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

Seeing Xiao Li coming in, Ma Tingzhen went up to meet him and asked eagerly, "Comrade, why did Magistrate Zhang see me?"

Xiao Li said very politely: "The county magistrate Zhang is having a conference call with the leaders above. I really can't get away! I think you might as well go back first. When the county magistrate has time, I will call you."

Xiao Li made up a good lie. If the leader is in a meeting with the big leader, it is normal not to see you.

Ma Tingzhen secretly said: "As expected!"

According to the verbal agreement between Longtang and the Triad Society, Ma Tingzhen should have come to City A to deliver the goods a long time ago, and he was half a month late this time.

The Triad Society and the Leiren Gang unite many forces to put pressure on the Yi Gang, causing the two sides to fall into a state of full-scale war, and Long Tang is on the side of the Yi Gang, which makes the Triad Society and Long Tang also enter a state of hostility .

So the upper echelons of the Triad Society cut off the supply and no longer supply to Long Tang, but things changed suddenly again, and there was a huge problem within the Northern Alliance, and the Triad Society thought of trying to win over Long Tang. Tell Ma Ting to go to sea and bring the goods to City A.

As for the excuse for being late, the upper echelons of the triad society didn't say a word, leaving Ma Tingzhen to find his own excuse.

Back then, the Kuomintang failed because the commanders gave orders blindly, and the gangsters in Taiwan seemed to be infected with this bad habit. Ma Ting really hated those bastards who ordered blindly.

Ma Ting really doesn't want to come but he can't, if he doesn't come to city a the triad will hack him to death, if he comes to city a Zhang Xiaolong may hack him to death.

It's a death anyway, Ma Ting really can only pray for Zhang Xiaolong to be more merciful.

Seeing Ma Ting really showing the expression of dead parents, Xiao Li thought that Ma Ting was really disappointed that he could not see the county magistrate, so he quickly comforted him: "Boss Ma, don't worry, the county magistrate really has something to do, as long as the county magistrate is free, I will take care of you." I'll let you know right away."

"Thank you." Ma Tingzhen held Xiao Li's hand and said gratefully, sighing inwardly, why are there so few good people in this world!

Xiao Li hurriedly said: "Boss Ma, you are being polite. As a government official, you should serve the people."

At this time, Xiao Li despised the county magistrate a little bit, because he didn't meet Taiwanese businessmen during the lunch break, which was really unprofessional.

Xiao Li said: "Boss Ma, you go back first, just come over at one o'clock in the afternoon."

"No, I'll wait here."

Ma Ting really didn't dare to go, he knew that Zhang Xiaolong was trying to cool him down, if he just left, he might really have no chance at all, walking out of the county government compound now is no different from jumping into the sea with a weight in his arms.

Now even Xiao Li was moved, and hurriedly said: "Boss Ma, you are waiting, I will go talk to the county magistrate."

Ma Ting really stopped him in a hurry: "Don't, don't, I'm still waiting here."

Ma Ting really didn't dare to leave, so he waited in the reception room of the county government, and didn't even eat lunch.

Zhang Xiaolong locked the office door, took a good night's sleep on the sofa, and it was almost a little late when he opened his eyes.

Zhang Xiaolong stood up, stretched his waist, walked to the window, and opened it a small slit to change the stale air in the room. The cold wind blowing in also made Zhang Xiaolong wake up a lot.

Zhang Xiaolong pressed the speakerphone on the desk phone and said, "Xiao Li, make me a cup of coffee and come in."

"Yes." Xiao Li was waiting outside. He checked the time with a stopwatch, and was about to enter the office at one o'clock in the afternoon to help Ma Tingzhen.

This child is still young and has a little impulsiveness.

Xiao Li immediately made a cup of instant coffee and came in. This kind of coffee is very cheap for one yuan and one bag of thirteen grams. Although this is the county government compound, there is no good coffee to drink, but there are many good tea leaves.

Putting the coffee on the desk, Xiao Li said carefully: "Mayor Zhang, Boss Ma has been waiting in the reception room for a whole noon, and he didn't eat any food. Would you like to see him?"

Zhang Xiaolong took a sip of his coffee unhurriedly, feeling sympathetic to Ma Tingzhen in his heart. It is very difficult to get rid of being used as cannon fodder by the triads. He is not destined to be a serious businessman.

"Call him in."

Zhang Xiaolong felt that it was meaningless to embarrass a small person.

Xiao Li was overjoyed, he was really happy for Ma Ting, this time he didn't have to wait any longer, but he didn't know that there would be a time when Ma Ting would really cry.

Ma Ting came to Zhang Xiaolong's office in a real way, without mentioning the matter of waiting for two or three hours, and greeted him respectfully: "Hello, County Magistrate Zhang."

"Xiao Li, you go out. I will talk to Boss Ma alone." Zhang Xiaolong waved Xiao Li back out.

"Boss Ma, what would you like to drink, tea or coffee?" Xiao Li asked politely before going out.

Without waiting for Ma Tingzhen to answer, Zhang Xiaolong said: "He doesn't need anything, you go out and close the door, no one is allowed to come in without my permission."

"Yes." Xiao Li hastily withdrew, he didn't understand why the county magistrate didn't want to see this Taiwanese businessman.

Xiao Li backed out, and just as the door closed behind him, Ma Tingzhen showed an extremely grandson's expression and said: "Major Zhang, I have already brought the equipment you asked me to bring last time, and it is on the cargo ship at the pier. I'll bring it to you."

"The poisonous snake still remembers me!" Zhang Xiaolong took out a piece of chewing gum from the table and put it in his mouth to clean up the bad breath caused by his nap.

Ma Tingzhen said: "Major Zhang, look at when your people will pick up the goods."

Zhang Xiaolong chewed gum and said, "You are unlucky, so I won't embarrass you anymore. I will give you three hours to escape. I will ask the police to go to the pier to seal the ship in the afternoon."

"Ah!" Ma Tingzhen knelt on the ground and begged, "Mayor Zhang, please spare me! If I escape like this, I will die."

Zhang Xiaolong said: "Don't make a sad face, go back. The poisonous snake knows what's going on, let him come to see me in City A."

"But……"

"If you want to die, you can stay here." Zhang Xiaolong picked up the phone to check the time, and said, "It's 10:[-], and you still have [-] hours, [-] minutes to escape. Drug smuggling is a death penalty in China. "

Ma Ting was so pale that he even looked at Zhang Xiaolong, knowing that it was useless to beg for mercy, this matter was not something he could solve from the very beginning.

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Ma Tingzhen stayed in the office for 10 minutes, then ran out in a panic, trotting all the way out of the county hall, anxious like a bereaved dog.

Xiao Li was taken aback by the commotion, he wanted to ask, Ma Ting really ran too fast and didn't stop him, Xiao Li wanted to ask Zhang Xiaolong, but when he walked to the door, he vaguely heard Zhang Xiaolong calling.

"Daquan, take people to the pier immediately to secure Ma Tingzhen's boat, and seal the boat at [-]:[-] p.m. As for Ma Tingzhen, let him go back."

Zhang Xiaolong hung up the phone and closed the door by himself, but he didn't see Xiao Li outside the door.

Although he doesn't know why, Xiao Li thinks it's better not to know.The county magistrate can make the police seal the boat. It seems that Ma Tingzhen is not as honest and pitiful as he looks.

Ma Tingzhen left the county government compound and ran back to the pier, and found that the pier was full of police cars, and the police had already secured his boat. Zhang Quan got instructions from Zhang Xiaolong, and did not make things difficult for Ma Tingzhen, so he found a young man who was involved in smuggling. Ma Tingzhen was sent away with a small smuggled fishing boat.
