Chapter 361
The riots in the streets gradually increased.
The false peace that was barely maintained before was already becoming more and more precarious.
Su Chunjun, who had suffered a little bit of superficial and internal injuries in the assassination last time, brightly wrapped himself up in a wounded head and started sending desperate telegrams for help to Mr. Jiang, whom he had met last time.
It was only natural that official business should be neglected.
Zhao Shuli took over all the work.
There wasn’t really much to do.
That is, strikes.
Not the kind of strike where workers demonstrate.
Rather, Su Chunjun took the opportunity to stop most of the government departments, and the clerks all swept out of the door……. No, it was a suspension of work.
The only thing that is still working is the Feng family residence, which is now the Su family residence.
The only thing that is still working is the Feng family residence, which is now the Su residence, and the Intelligence Department and the Staff Bureau, which are not under the control of Su Chunjun.
Su Chunjun’s seat is actually not a small amount of water.
Although he was doing the job of a mayor, he did not have the reality of a mayor. In addition to the various large and small bureaus that cry out for money every day, he can’t get his hands dirty with the Intelligence Department and the Staff Bureau, which can really save his life.
The people in those places did have to answer to him as well – but only to keep him safe.
That’s where his driver came in.
After he moved here, he was given three more people like that, and even Zhu Yuyan had two by his side.
It’s both surveillance and protection.
Su Chunjun got a little bit of power by giving money and food to the police.
After all, in this world, without armed forces, it is like a toothless tiger.
He has long wanted to stop the other departments in the government, such as the fire-fighting bureau, the health bureau, the water conservancy bureau …… What is the use of these bureaus!
There is no use for shit.
Zhao Shuli was ordered to come to assist him.
But in fact, it was to examine him and to keep them both alive.
It wasn’t to keep this crumbling government going.
There was no point in keeping it running now, at best the government that had run away could still say that the city was still under their control and that there was still no problem – no fucking problem!
With the army all withdrawn, no money, no food, no weapons, isn’t that just leaving the people of this city to die.
Zhao Shuli doesn’t have that much loyalty to the party state, and certainly doesn’t care about the party state’s face.
Su Chunjun said, “Let’s have a strike with a cover, and take the opportunity of my illness to stop the government first”.
Zhao Shuli: Yes.
Su Chunjun: With the money we save, let’s call in more guards.
The police are now the only armed force that can be mobilized.
But this team is still too weak. Not only the weapons, but also the number of people is far from enough.
Maintaining the security of such a huge city requires a police force of at least tens of thousands of people, and if the ones who are still working now can pull in three thousand people, Su Chunjun will have to laugh.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to expand the number of escorts before.
But the strength is not enough, there is no excuse.
The Japanese side is eyeing to “protect” the Chinese people.
Before the assassination, if he dared to reveal that he wanted to expand the police force, form an escort, set up an organization, and give military ranks and weapons and equipment, the Japanese would have immediately rushed over to him and said, “We are willing to use Japanese soldiers to protect the Chinese people, and to protect you and your family”.
Su Chunjun, however, has always proved to the Japanese that the local area is very peaceful and safe, and does not need the protection of Japanese soldiers. You can’t turn around and run off to form a guard force on your own face.
This is like two people at the poker table both talking about pretending, and both know that the other is pretending, but since they have not torn their faces, they can only continue to pretend.
Now the pressure to pretend is on the Japanese side.
Su Chunjun was happy for the Japanese to continue pretending, and he was very afraid that the Japanese would stop pretending. Because when they stopped pretending, there was nothing he could do.
Now that he had been assassinated, he decided to take this opportunity to form a “special protection guard” to protect “himself”.
So, Su Chunjun even paid a special visit to Mr. Zhang and asked him for a batch of weapons and ammunition.
Although Mr. Zhang has a big frame of mind, he is very good at talking, and he is not only relying on his family’s soldiers, but also his nature is to be a long-sleeved and good at dancing.
Not only immediately and quickly gifted Su Chunjun a number of weapons and ammunition, but also introduced him to two Poles, these two Poles are merchants to and from Germany.
Arms merchants.
Germany, for reasons that are well known, has many arms companies in the country. The nature of businessmen is profit-seeking, and after a large number of weapons and ammunition are produced, the country’s army can’t digest them, so they are sent outside to sell them in a brainwave.
Germany’s arms compared to the United States, the advantage is – cheap.
Because the United States in the surface is a ban on the sale of weapons to China. It’s not allowed to sell weapons to China. But underneath there is still a lot of smuggling.
But because of this, the U.S. is more expensive than German goods.
These two arms dealers are very enthusiastic about Su Chunjun and are happy to sell him weapons. And they don’t just accept US dollars, German marks are fine, gold bars are fine, French francs, British pounds, they can oh.
This shows how big the business is.
Su Chunjun’s mouth was watering, but he had no money.
And now the only people in this city who can store so much currency or gold bars are banks or big capitalists.
The Zhu family’s little money placed in a sale of this amount was a drop of water against an ocean.
Of course, he could also make some benefit exchange.
So he agreed with these two merchants to contact often in the future and keep friendly and that was the end of it.
Less than half a month after his visit to Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang left.
As suddenly as he came.
Before he left, Mr. Zhang even held a ball, gorgeous as usual.
Su Chunjun went with Zhu Yuyan to attend.
I wish the second miss today’s dress is again the year Zhu Yanshu old goods, old to old, but very lift the aura. Zhu Yanshu’s style back then was that of a rich lady, a daughter of a family, and all she wore and used was the best. This dance skirt is pearl-colored, the top with silver embroidered auspicious clouds and waves, imitation of the official dress, the hem of the skirt below is imitation of the movie Hollywood starlet fishtail skirt, spread out a circle of white hard veil as if the mermaid’s fishtail.
This dress is enough to be a bride, not to mention to participate in the ball.
When Zhu Yanshu do it, wear it is also risk the world’s great taboo.
Because white is the color of mourning clothes in China, children can not wear all white unless the elders of the family died.
But when Ms. Zhu’s young age is precisely about a rebellious and different, Ms. Zhu did not elope, did not cut short hair, just wear a white dance dress, can not really say is very rebellious.
What’s more, Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu didn’t think it was bad luck, and even complimented Ms. Zhu for wearing a pretty good-looking dress.
Even though more than twenty years had passed, today Zhu Yuyan wore it and still stood alone in the ball.
She was the only one wearing a white dress.
A woman should be pretty, all in mourning.
She was also really pretty in this outfit.
This way not many people would notice her thin body shape and gaunt face.
Recently, both she and Su Chunjun hadn’t had much rest.
The reason they came today was because they couldn’t afford to lose face with Mr. Zhang.
Mr. Zhang and Ms. Zhao hadn’t changed much.
Mr. Zhang was still on the dance floor dancing with the beautiful young dancer.
Ms. Zhao was chatting with someone on the sofa.
When Su Chunjun and Zhu Yuyan arrived at the venue, Mr. Zhang and Su Chunjun went to chat elsewhere, and Ms. Zhao dragged Zhu Yuyan to a secluded place.
Miss Zhao brought her a glass of wine and said, “I guess you don’t have much heart for socializing with people today, so just stay here and be quiet.”
Zhu Yuyan took it, took a sip, and asked, “I heard that you guys are leaving, are you all packed? Do you need my help?”
Ms. Zhao is also holding a glass of wine in her hand, smiled and said, “No need, I’m all used to it, after following him, I’ve been running around for so many years, I can’t stay anywhere long.”
She said, “I’m quite compatible with you, just this time the timing is not good, when this side of the peace, we will come back, then play together.”
Zhu Yuyan and her only met two or three times, how can we call it a good match? They were just polite words.
Zhu Yu Yan gently clinked glasses with her and said with a smile, “Definitely.”
Ms. Zhao is probably a little drunk, a breath and drank half a cup, riding her shoulder and said: “I’m not coaxing you, is really think you are good. You are good looking and young, at first when I saw you, I thought ……” she smiled and shook her head, “For so many years, the women who came to me as long as they were younger and prettier were all for him. Even if I knew, I had to pretend not to know, but also to be friends with them and create opportunities for them.”
Zhu Yuyan’s rare expression blanked out for a moment, “You used to think that I ……”
This is also too …… much!
But now this world marriage has long been non-binding, between men and women all depends on the ability. Thinking about it carefully surprisingly is not strange.
Ms. Zhao looked at Zhu Yuyan and said from her heart, “You are a good person.”
Can single-mindedly work for the ideal, work for the people, really call her admiration. She couldn’t do it, so she admired it even more.
She hugged Zhu Yuyan before leaving.
On the other side, Mr. Zhang said to Su Chunjun, “Do you want to come with me? I can take you with me as well, as well as your wife.”
Su Chunjun froze for a moment, and he did not dare to respond for a moment – because he did not know what exactly Mr. Zhang meant, and what purpose he had.
How could there be any genuinely good people in this world.
He and Yan Yan had sincerely done things, but in the eyes of many people, the two of them were not considered good people either.
It was even more unlikely that Mr. Zhang would help them for no reason.
Mr. Zhang: “Old Jiang heard about you and said that you are a good one, and that you are young and bound to have a great future in the future. I’m leaving on my own this time, it’s not appropriate to leave you behind, rather it’s better to take you with me.”
“Think carefully and get back to me tomorrow.”
