Life in siheyuan era

#99 - Chapter 99: Flowers on the Tree

Zhang Limin personally drove Shen Lanbo home, some things could only be said in the car.

"Your true organizational and personnel relationships still belong to the military. You have now been transferred to the military intelligence department. You will both be issued military intelligence investigator certificates next week. Unless there are special circumstances, do not show them easily."

"Although you have entered the public security system, you do not have the power to investigate. You can only conduct secret investigations. Zhiyuan will act as a member of the public. Daily actions do not necessarily need to be reported to me. You are responsible for planning, Zhiyuan is responsible for action, and I am responsible for overall responsibility."

"Under special circumstances, you two are allowed to use force, even to kill the other party, but there must be conclusive evidence. Zhiyuan is too ruthless, you must restrain him at all times, and temporarily do not let him come into contact with knives and guns."

"Zhiyuan has a strong temperament and cannot stand being wronged. Being able to compromise for his family is already the limit. He beat Hu Biao as soon as he went to work, and forcibly demolishing Xu Lao Er's illegal construction the next day was a vent. You must pay attention to his mentality and often advise him."

Zhang Limin was worried about Zhou Zhiyuan, but what he said was also true. Shen Lanbo asked in a low voice, "Can Zhiyuan have a girlfriend?"

Zhang Limin smiled and said, "That's a good idea. I think his section chief is very good. I also specifically reviewed her file. Whether it's appearance, character, or ability, she's good. You can consider it."

"If Zhiyuan has a girlfriend, yin and yang will be harmonized, and his temper might not be so strong. Lanbo, please put your heart into this matter. I'll step in at a critical moment."

With Zhang Limin saying this, Shen Lanbo felt relieved. Allowing Zhou Zhiyuan to have a girlfriend meant that this 'walker' would only leave the capital when necessary.

But he absolutely did not want Zhou Zhiyuan to develop feelings with that female section chief. They could only be colleagues.

But he would not express it directly to Zhang Limin, listening quietly to Zhang Limin's introduction of the basic situation of counter-espionage in the capital until he got out of the car in front of the military compound.

Walking into the compound, he saw an HQ sedan driving in. Shen Lanbo stopped, watching the car stop in front of him. As the rear door opened, a middle-aged soldier got out and waved gently. The car drove forward, and Shen Lanbo walked to the middle-aged soldier and said in a low voice, "Dad, you're back."

Seeing Shen Jue, Shen Lanbo felt uneasy. He was about to tell him about the "Fishing Plan," but he heard Shen Jue ask in a low voice, "Tell me in detail about Zhou Zhiyuan's situation."

Shen Lanbo never expected that the first thing Shen Jue would do upon returning would be to inquire about Zhou Zhiyuan's situation. Seeing his solemn expression, his mood suddenly became heavy.

"What did this kid do?" This was Shen Lanbo's first reaction.

The fact was that Zhou Zhiyuan had done nothing. The "Language Pathway Unlocking Artifact" was his secret. This artifact had been opened by him, but he found that the situation had changed, so he opened another channel.

Tonight, Han Xue was treating, and Li Huaiyi was among the guests. Zhou Zhiyuan was going to follow the ancient saying, and Sun Tzu had said: "Thus, the best policy is to attack the enemy's strategy; next is to disrupt his alliances; next is to attack his army; and the worst is to besiege his cities. Besieging cities is only done as a last resort."

Of course, he also had an active side. Li Huaiyi was not the main leader and could not make many decisions.

But he needed time. There was a process for establishing a good working relationship with Qiu Jianye and Zou Hong. During this period, he needed to use strategy.

Zhou Zhiyuan was not good at making plans, because a plan was a comprehensive arrangement process, while a single strategy was not needed, just like the Empty Fort Strategy. Zhuge Wuhou had no choice but to use the "Empty Fort Strategy," while Zhou Zhiyuan used the "Deceiving the Heavens" strategy.

He told Han Xue, Wan Chunfang, and Wang Dagang that his career path was to be a secretary for the leaders above, or to work in the organization or propaganda departments, going from top to bottom. This was the implementation of this strategy.

Wan Chunfang was not someone who could keep a secret. She would tell others, and Li Huaiyi would know. When he knew his plan, he would put his energy into this aspect, doing his best to suppress his career path.

But this strategy could only take effect through the mouths of others. He still needed to use another strategy, the "Grafting Flowers on a Tree" strategy.

Tonight, Han Xue was treating, using the dinner table as a setting to show his power, making Li Huaiyi wary of him.

He was preparing to use this strategy on Li Huaiyi tonight, but he didn't expect Li Huaiyu to bring Wu Shan.

Listening to his introduction of Wu Shan, looking at this burly young man, Zhou Zhiyuan almost gave up implementing this strategy. Li Huaiyi had no brains, at least lacked leadership brains.

His approach made Han Xue very dissatisfied, and Wan Chunfang and Wang Dagang were equally dissatisfied. Of the four people in the Urban Management Section, only Zhou Zhiyuan was very satisfied, so he decided to give Li Huaiyi face in front of outsiders and no longer implement this strategy.

But Wu Shan insisted on giving him a chance.

He was very interested in Han Xue. Zhou Zhiyuan was not surprised, a fair maiden is sought after by gentlemen.

Wu Shan was not necessarily a gentleman, but he would definitely try to be one. He started introducing himself as soon as he sat down: "I am very familiar with Director Li, and I have also eaten with Sister Wan, but I am not very familiar with Section Chief Han and the others. Let me introduce myself:"

"As Director Li said just now, I am the purchasing agent of Modi Restaurant. The position is not high, but I know a lot of people in all aspects, such as Director Luo of the Bureau of Commerce, Director Zheng of the Public Security Bureau, Director Jin of the District Government Office, and some leaders with higher positions, which are not suitable to say, but these leaders have a very good personal relationship with me."

"I also know a few kung fu masters, some people who are well-known in society. People in society give me face. If you have anything, please feel free to find me. I am a loyal person and will definitely help."

Wu Shan took the lead in implementing the "Grafting Flowers on a Tree" strategy, using this method to enhance his position.

But he did it too obviously, looking at Han Xue while speaking, and occasionally glancing at Zhou Zhiyuan. This attitude made Zhou Zhiyuan understand that Wu Shan was coming for him.

He couldn't be modest at this time, so he used the "Grafting Flowers on a Tree" strategy to fight back.

So, after Wu Shan finished speaking, Zhou Zhiyuan said calmly: "It's useless to know a certain leader, just like me, I know our commander, who is a general."

"At that time, I thought, a general, promoting a platoon leader is a matter of minutes, so I tried to flatter him, and after a while, I went to him and pleaded: 'I have been a squad leader for three years, promote me to platoon leader'."

"But what was the result? He roared at me, 'Promote what? Do you have any military achievements or have you won any awards? Why should I promote you?'"

"You see, what's the use of knowing a general? If you want to be promoted, you have to rely on yourself to fight to the death on the battlefield to earn military achievements."

"As for those people in the pugilistic world, there is no need to be afraid. Real masters don't cause trouble. The more you practice martial arts, the more you feel that you are not good. Those who think they are masters are not real masters."

"And those gangsters in society, which one doesn't dare to bully people by relying on their numbers? A lone gangster is nothing."

These words were like a slap in the face, hitting Wu Shan's face hard.

Wu Shan was embarrassed, Wan Chunfang was thoughtful, and the corners of Han Xue and Wang Dagang's mouths were slightly raised, revealing a smile.

And Li Huaiyi said coldly: "Only you can do it?"

Li Huaiyi was really a good straight man, if he didn't speak, Zhou Zhiyuan really couldn't continue.

Borrowing Li Huaiyi's words, Zhou Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Director Li, to be honest, I can really do it. When I was young, I was the most lovable child in my family and neighborhood. It was really a case of everyone loves me, flowers bloom for me."

"When I was in school, I was the teacher's favorite student, the big brother most supported by my classmates. People called me Righteous Zhou Zhiyuan, stabbing myself for my buddies, and being generous to my classmates. If my classmates were bullied outside, shouting 'My classmate is Zhou Zhiyuan', those gangsters would turn around and leave."

"Director Li, you can ask Zhang Yong about these things. When I was in the army, several of my teachers and hundreds of my classmates went to the station to see me off. Dozens of gangsters also went, each with tears in their eyes and reluctant to leave."

"After I arrived in the army, I worked hard to practice marksmanship and soon became a sharpshooter. In terms of fighting, I was known as the King of Fighting. The chief liked me, and I was promoted to squad leader in half a year......"

Zhou Zhiyuan implemented the "Grafting Flowers on a Tree" strategy, and everyone looked at him.

Han Xue was puzzled, "What does he want to do?"

Wan Chunfang and Wang Dagang looked at him strangely. After these few days of contact, they both agreed that Zhou Zhiyuan was a modest person.

Wu Shan secretly calculated, "His skin is thicker than mine."

And the unbearable Li Huaiyi interrupted him: "So excellent, why was he so stupid as to cut off his finger tendons?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Zhiyuan's voice stopped abruptly, with a surprised expression on his face. He looked carefully at Li Huaiyi, sighed, and said: "Director Li is really too simple!"

He seemed to have suddenly lost his interest in speaking, glanced at the waiter serving the food, and then looked at Han Xue, saying weakly: "Section Chief Han, you are the host tonight, the dishes are almost ready, you take care of it."

After saying this, Zhou Zhiyuan focused on looking at the wine glass in front of him, as if a bright red rose suddenly appeared in this glass, charming and beautiful, making him dazzled.

This attitude made Li Huaiyi angrily say: "Why don't you speak? In a night battle, you mistakenly regarded the blade as the handle, and cut off your finger tendons. Is there anyone as stupid as you?"

Li Huaiyi seized his handle and wanted to trample him under his feet.
